5:12 am

herinfernallady

Well actually I lie. I cracked the first chocolate one at 7:30

5:13 am

grannyrose

ditto here. we went out for lunch at Milano's in brighton. had the best surf and turf. still full from that....lol

5:14 am

herinfernallady

Is that place good>

5:15 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah. i booked over a month ago. the place was packed.

5:16 am

herinfernallady

So does one watch Se7en and eat their dinner at the same time?

5:17 am

grannyrose

if you are fortunate to have a table by the window you have a panoramic view of the bay. we were too busy laughing and talking. my bros and their families were with us.

5:19 am

herinfernallady

How lovely

5:20 am

herinfernallady

They are a little pricy for a ALH Group hotel. Lovely though

5:22 am

grannyrose

ag5d, it is pricey. but we don't do it frequently. in fact probably just easter sunday to tell the truth. christmas we spend in a park somewhere.

5:23 am

herinfernallady

NOt saying that it is a bad thing. Just an observation. You are talking to the crazy muppet that spent $200 on a bottle of wine one night

5:24 am

Marc Freeman

5:25 am

herinfernallady

herinfernallady

5:41 am

herinfernallady

5:41 am

sprite

5:42 am

sprite

5:42 am

grannyrose

oh, wow!! how fantastic, sprite.

5:42 am

herinfernallady

5:42 am

herinfernallady

and probably setting table

5:42 am

sprite

ok sweetie, take your time. Was just letting you know I enjoy your company, grin. Not to stress you.

5:43 am

grannyrose

sprite i had the most incredible steak at lunch today. it was soooo yummy.

5:43 am

sprite

yeah rose, I am over the moon, lol. Incredible what a good night of sleep can do for us, isn't it.

5:43 am

sprite

oh wow rose, sounds delicious! Glad you enjoyed your yearly steak :)

5:44 am

sprite

ohhh ro4 you are in the grid :D

5:44 am

grannyrose

well this is not something i would normally buy for us. it was a 300gm piece of angus beef. it truly melted in the mouth.

5:45 am

lbdawger

good morning sprite, rose and herin!

5:45 am

sprite

if you go overboard, go all the way overboard, right? Lovely. I am literally drooling. Sorry for the image.

5:45 am

grannyrose

good morning lbdawger

5:45 am

sprite

good morning, dawg! How are you today?

5:46 am

lbdawger

drooling over the images of beef! yummm! happy easter or the day after.

5:46 am

grannyrose

it was a surf and turf dish. with the steak were king prawns, scampi and scallops, in a divine cream sauce.

5:46 am

sprite

to you too, dawg.

5:47 am

grannyrose

thanx lbdawger.

5:47 am

lbdawger

surf and turf! mega drooling here!

5:47 am

sprite

sounds like your kind of dish, rose :)

5:47 am

grannyrose

ditto what sprite said.

5:48 am

grannyrose

surprise, surprise!! i cannot face any dinner tonight.

5:48 am

sprite

roflol still stuffed?

5:49 am

grannyrose

yup, and have had tooo much choklit too.

5:49 am

sprite

ah well, once a year shouldn't harm you, rose. I hope you enjoyed it to the hilt.

5:50 am

grannyrose

oh, which reminds me. i have a hard-boiled egg in my handbag. i had better retrieve it pronto and put it in the fridge. brb

5:50 am

sprite

oh dear. Your bag is smelly now...

5:51 am

sprite

dawg, how are you doing today?

5:51 am

lbdawger

image of cartoon handbag with wafting black smoke coming out of it!

5:51 am

lbdawger

I'm doing well, Sprite. and you?

5:51 am

sprite

ugh yeah, not many things smell the way eggs do

5:51 am

sprite

good to hear, dawg. I am fine. Slept like a baby, feeling extra good today.

5:52 am

lbdawger

love that well rested feeling! is it spring yet in your backyard? I have mud and yuck

5:53 am

sprite

mud and yuck here as well. But today, there is sun!

5:53 am

lbdawger

we had a few hours of sun yesterday. not sure what the weather liars are saying for today.

5:54 am

sprite

I never listen to them. Only believe them about the weather we are having at the moment anyway, and that, I can see for myself.

5:55 am

lbdawger

lol, yup me too. and here the weather can change in the blink of an eye.

5:56 am

grannyrose

back. and in church this morning they gave me a phalaenopsis orchid. i was told that it was a robust plant which thrived on neglect. and i said, in that case it is going to be a VERY robust plant. it is the most beautiful deep purple.

5:56 am

sprite

oh how beautiful, rose

5:57 am

sprite

here as well, dawg. Very changeable weather here.

5:57 am

grannyrose

btw, mydecision about the restaurant proved to be correct. the weather here barely made it to 19C and that wind was bitterly cold.

5:57 am

lbdawger

I had to google and image. lovely!

5:58 am

grannyrose

it is very pretty dawg

5:58 am

sprite

the kids have this app on their phone that predicts the rain in the next few hours. They actually try to time their going to school by it. And end up in the colossal rainstorm they were trying to avoid, of course.

5:59 am

grannyrose

roflol, of course they do. i say, look out the window. if you know which direction your weather comes from, you can pretty much predict exactly what the weather is going to do.

5:59 am

sprite

my grandma used to have those, rose. She never neglected any of them but they still bloomed like crazy. Of course, everything bloomed and prospered for her. Amazing that I with my black thumbs are related to her.

6:00 am

sprite

am, not are. Sigh.

6:00 am

grannyrose

i am going to google them another time, and print out the directions for their care.

6:00 am

lbdawger

I hear you, sprite. My mother could gr4 anything! me, I grow dust

6:01 am

grannyrose

dawg, sprite. i can kill fish-bone ferns/bracken.

6:02 am

lbdawger

we are the mighty plant terminators!

6:02 am

sprite

do you think it is an as yet undiscovered fact of life? That growing magic always skips a few generations?

6:03 am

sprite

I read here, rose: lots of light but no direct sunlight. And water on the earth, not on the plant.

6:04 am

sprite

or, dunk the pot once a week into a bucket of water. For about a minute.

6:04 am

crosshair

Good morning, everyone:)

6:04 am

lbdawger

My sibs are much better at keeping plants alive. I think I just got the bad luck.

6:04 am

lbdawger

hi crossy

6:05 am

sprite

and air roots are a sign the plant is happy. You must leave them alone. Lol, I love this.

6:05 am

sprite

hello crossy! *hugs*

6:05 am

crosshair

All my favorite ladies are here this morning:)

6:05 am

grannyrose

thanx sprite.that's easy. g'day crossy

6:06 am

sprite

oh my, dawg. The undiscovered fact of life might be that one in every generation is the Chosen One! She alone will carry the curse of unplantism.

6:06 am

lbdawger

yes, I think you may have it there, Sprite.

6:06 am

sprite

aw how sweetly put, crossy. How is your favorite of all favorites doing? Still dozing?

6:07 am

Atalante

nah, doesn't work like that. I'm an only child and I can kill cacti while my mum can grow anything in the world

6:08 am

sprite

ATA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg how lovely to see you. That has been literally ages. I wrote you an email once but I think it never reached you. Do you have a new email? How are you doing?

6:08 am

lbdawger

hi, Atalante! but that still holds true, one in every generation.

6:08 am

Atalante

hello :) happy easter!

6:08 am

sprite

that still holds true then. You are the one chosen to carry the curse.

6:08 am

crosshair

Crossy also has a black thumb. You can present me with the most hardy, durable cactus plant, and it will take one look at me, sigh once in defeat, and die willingly to avoid any torture i would inadvertently place upon it in my ignorance of gardening :/

6:09 am

crosshair

my beloved is still abed, Sprite:)

6:09 am

grannyrose

whoot!! ata!! g'day honey.

6:09 am

Atalante

ditto, crossy

6:09 am

crosshair

I am the only morning bird in this household. makes it tough sometimes:/

6:09 am

sprite

well at least the curse doesn't discriminate by gender, crossy

6:10 am

grannyrose

aww crossy. and you are so brave and noble..

6:10 am

sprite

Ata, is there any way I can reach you nowadays?

6:11 am

Atalante

still at elegaer@gmail.com, but I don't read my emails every day ... you should get a reply at some point though :D

6:11 am

Atalante

I read too many emails at work to come home and read mroe emails every day :P

6:11 am

sprite

nah has been 2 years back, or something like that. Will write to you soon!

6:13 am

sprite

*grins* Well nothing I have to say won't keep over time! No hurry at all. And I hear ya. Used to be the same for me, back in my working days.

6:13 am

sprite

are you happy in your new life, Ata?

6:15 am

sprite

I bet crossy is making himself a brave and noble cup of lonesome tea.

6:16 am

Atalante

very, am up in scotland, right next to the sea. I open my front door and all I can hear is the sea rolling in and the seagulls. I don't have my darling Hobbit any more, but I have a small bouncy cocker puppy who is currently learning how to be a dog

6:17 am

sprite

aw that sounds so sweet. Did you have to leave Hobbit with your ex? Or did she go the way of all our beloved pets? And wow, living at the sea for a marine biologist... not bad at all!

6:18 am

Atalante

I wouldn't have left her with anyone! :) She went very suddenly and very peacefully when she was nearly 11, And I still miss her everyday

6:20 am

lbdawger

(((ATA))) but life by the sea and a new puppy...not too shabby. Hobbit is still with you and probably a bit in that new pup.

6:20 am

sprite

am sorry for your loss, Ata :( Keeps hurting, doesn't it, missing a beloved friend like that. But what a blessed way to go. And yay for allowing a new friend into your heart.

6:21 am

sprite

you still with us, rose? Or did you fall asleep? ;)

6:21 am

lbdawger

tadone!! finito! a typical grid of this size, fun with a few oddball words.

6:21 am

sprite

wtg dawg!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:21 am

Atalante

oh yes :) and Loki is an adventure all in himself!

6:22 am

sprite

oooo I love that name!

6:22 am

Atalante

it was a VERY silly name for a mad spaniel :P

6:23 am

sprite

*giggles* works for me

6:23 am

lbdawger

;-) I imagine he loves playing in the water and coming up to you for loving!

6:24 am

Atalante

he's doing his best to live up to his name. he's in my pic. and how and you and terra and lbd and everyone?

6:24 am

Atalante

we both spent about 70% of our lives soggy ...

6:24 am

grannyrose

and back, reading the chog. ata, that is very sad about hobbit, but i am so pleased to read about the cocker pup. may you both have many loving happy years together. xoxox

6:25 am

lbdawger

I'm doing well.but without a furbaby. I'd love to have another, but hubz is resistin.

6:25 am

grannyrose

WTG LBDAWGER!!!

6:26 am

Marc Freeman

wo5, please?

6:26 am

sprite

sounds good, Ata. We are all fine here. The kids are almost grown. Tim is gonna be 19 next month, Caya is 17. They have grown up to beautiful people. Not that I am biased or anything. Rob and I are ok, getting older and not always in full health, but happy together. And Terra is still the same lovely, silly, happy dog. Sunshine in my every day. You helped us pick the perfect dog for us.

6:26 am

grannyrose

6:28 am

Marc Freeman

6:29 am

grannyrose

6:29 am

sprite

an oldfashioned word for someone who tries to get someone to marry him, Marc. Bringing her chocolates, flowers, be his charmingest self...

6:29 am

sprite

oh my gosh, 11! How is Sily doing?

6:30 am

Atalante

6:47 am

grannyrose

dearest...are you still here?

6:47 am

sprite

yep, finishing off the last ones

6:48 am

grannyrose

i have recommenced the tegretol. cellulitis totally died down.

6:48 am

sprite

oh I am so glad. That was a bad spell.

6:49 am

grannyrose

and so has the itching episode from the FM

6:49 am

sprite

I wonder, rose... when a wound heals, it hurts, and then it starts itching... maybe the FM will follow the same rule :)

6:50 am

grannyrose

the blasted sweats have started again. that's 12 days since the infusions.

6:50 am

sprite

ok, keep note. Remember the doc said this was how it would go. The more infusions you get, the longer you should be able to go on them. This was only the first.

6:51 am

grannyrose

not with me, sweetie. every now and again i itch all over...it really is enough to drive one over the edge.

6:51 am

grannyrose

i am thinking of recommencing the extra magnesium. what do you think?

6:52 am

sprite

ikr! I hate the itching. The neuropathy is starting in my hands now and it is the same as with my feet. Crazy itch now and then.

6:53 am

sprite

can't you ask dr John? To me, it sounds ok. Looks like the infusion is no longer cutting it, so extra magnesium would be good. But wouldn't want to mess up dr John's indications.

6:53 am

sprite

6:54 am

wtg

6:54 am

grannyrose

nah...i just needed confirmation from a fellow sufferer. i really don't want the cramps and twitches to start up again.

6:54 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!!

6:55 am

grannyrose

dr tim wanted me to have fortnightly infusions of magnesium.

6:56 am

sprite

sounds about right, doesn't it? That is about how long it worked for you. But I hope dr John is right and it will work longer every time.

6:56 am

grannyrose

and the infusion dr john gave me was double the dose of dr tim's.

6:57 am

grannyrose

well we do know my kidney's excrete the magnesium faster than the usual kidney.

6:57 am

sprite

what they call progressing insight, maybe. The longer they work with this method, the better they will be able to finetune it and predict its effect.

6:57 am

herinfernallady

and I am back

6:58 am

wb lady! How was your dinner?

6:58 am

grannyrose

yes, sprite. i am keeping a diary. it will give dr john a detailed account of what i have gone through.

here's an article my daughter posted regarding how technology might fail you in a medical emergency:

http://tinyurl.com/nbr3fw7

7:56 am

my daughter said, "I am thankful that I haven't made a grievous mistake-but this is a reminder of how all the holes of Swiss cheese can line up and lead to catastrophe."

7:59 am

crosshair

I love the Swiss cheese holes comparison. A tasty version of the planets aligning:)

7:59 am

ower is so a word

i liked that phrase, too - she's an amazing kid in so many ways

8:02 am

8:02 am

welki

enjoy the day, aloy

8:04 am

Scrabbler

Welki, that story is about how people make mistakes. The computers were not used correctly. The nurse ultimately should have known that the correct dose could not have been 38.5 tablets. Terrible mistake.

8:05 am

bichon

What happened in this instance

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Every patient must know (or have an advocate that supervises) their meds, doses, and what is being given to them.

8:06 am

crosshair

Common sense would dictate that 38.5 pills is a tad too much. Should not just blindly follow orders.

8:07 am

Scrabbler

acta

8:07 am

Scrabbler

Free clue!

8:07 am

bichon

tyvm

8:07 am

welki

the mistake was that the computer calculated the dosage incorrectly - yes, the nurse should have double checked, but there was no safeguard for dosages for children less than 40kg - she was prompted and chose the correct dose. i'll re-read, but i think it was a mathematical error on the part of the computer's programming

8:07 am

crosshair

Scrabby gives the best clues!

8:08 am

bichon

So the patient got the wrong dose or the correct one?

8:08 am

pillopiu

hello

8:08 am

crosshair

But when you carry 38.5 pills over to the patient in one of those little cups, would it not make you wonder just a little bit??

8:09 am

pillopiu

#swag

8:09 am

welki

true - but like voltaire said, 'common sense is not so common'

8:09 am

Scrabbler

When ordering meds the computer program will ask you to override if you calculate wrong. Still, the maximum dose of Septra i typically one double strength tbalet twice daily so why the nurse would think giving 38.5 tablets is correct is the real issue.

8:09 am

pillopiu

char

8:09 am

welki

agreed, scrabbs

8:10 am

bichon

Did the patient die?

8:10 am

Scrabbler

No, bichon, but he was critically ill.

8:11 am

bichon

I hope the nurse got what for

8:11 am

Scrabbler

Pediatric dosing is based on weight of the patient. So there might be a 500 gram premie, a 10 kg toddler, a 30 kg child, etc.

8:12 am

welki

the article is written well, bichon. take a look: http://tinyurl.com/nbr3fw7

8:13 am

Scrabbler

Yes, the article has much detail.

8:14 am

Scrabbler

Ordering IV nutrition is also very tricky--every milliEquivalent of sodium, potassium, etc, must be calculated perfectly. Attention to detail is essential.

8:17 am

Scrabbler

My youngest sister is a hospital pharmacist and she must review every order by MDs. She frequently calls docs to correct mistakes.

8:18 am

bichon

Do you have to calculate it yourself, or does the computer do it for you

8:20 am

bichon

And this happened at UCSF, of all places

8:21 am

bichon

I'm sending this to my d.i.l. She is a medical researcher there and has taught at the Pharmacy school

8:22 am

Scrabbler

The computer is used to order and there are overrides if the wrong dose is chosen, and alerts pop up, but docs can ignore or click those away.

8:26 am

i think i'll send it to jillyjill - she balances medications all day long at work

10:32 am

rururocks

I don't care for emotional trees

10:33 am

MollyL

Too much drama?

10:33 am

10:41 am

10:41 am

Just as long as you don't become one of those boyz in the hood and start greeting all your peeps

10:45 am

MollyL

Ru, as one of my teenage neighbors says, there is nothing worse than old white people trying to act like young black people : D

10:46 am

MollyL

ta6 ends in cleaning cloth

10:46 am

rururocks

or young WHITE people trying to act like young black people

10:46 am

rururocks

thanks molly

10:46 am

harpjane

They should all try to act like old white people. We're the rich ones.

10:46 am

Uneaixoise

ta6 is compound and i'm used to the words being reversed

10:47 am

Uneaixoise

takes me back to the 60s and 70s when we white folks all wanted to be black and cool . . .

10:48 am

rururocks

If I was black.. I'd be a basketball player

10:48 am

cybernan

10:58 am

10:58 am

MollyL

Une, you have the best stories. Minnie Pearl in the grocery store? I love it.

11:00 am

rururocks

gee.. I only see winery owners in my local store ..like mrs. Robert mondavi. I did see Carlos Santana in St Helena a few weeks ago

11:01 am

harpjane

halfway

11:01 am

rururocks

*marks the 50% mark on harp's chart*

11:01 am

MollyL

Oh, I'm afraid I would get that dumbstruck fan look on my face if I ever saw Carlos.

11:02 am

rururocks

I nodded to him.. left him alone

11:02 am

harpjane

When I see a celebrity I try to treat them like a normal person, not a god(dess). I imagine that they appreciate that.

11:02 am

Uneaixoise

Minnie (Sarah Cannon) lived in my part of Nashville back in the day-- just like you'd expect, she was loud and funny and very friendly to all :-)

11:02 am

Uneaixoise

back in a bit . . .

11:02 am

harpjane

There are a bunch of them living in Montana. They come here because we don't care who they are.....

11:02 am

rururocks

I was on a rafting trip with Jamie lee Curtis once.. she's a hoot

11:03 am

rururocks

She had a T-Shirt that said "save me first! I'm famous"

11:03 am

rururocks

we all cracked up

11:03 am

MollyL

My only brush with fame was shaking hands with Bob Hope. He was visiting wounded troops at Bethesda Naval and one of my friends was a patient at the time. It was an honor.

11:04 am

rururocks

there's an icon huh

11:04 am

harpjane

The most famous person I ever met was probably Marcel Marceau. I worked as a stage hand for him. He looks pretty different off stage.....

11:05 am

rururocks

did you put him in a box harp?

11:05 am

MollyL

Love the t-shirt. Jamie Lee Curtis seems like she would be a good time.

11:05 am

harpjane

lol, I kept re-ironing his clothes because they weren't smooth enough for him!

11:05 am

rururocks

she was hysterically funny.. really a salt of the earth type person..

11:07 am

MollyL

It's nice to hear about celebrities like that. So many of them are in love with themselves.

11:07 am

rururocks

yes.. I think with all these people doting on you and telling you you're incredible.. it makes them go overboard on self-importance

11:08 am

rururocks

I would hate to be a celebrity..and have to hide from people

11:09 am

harpjane

In Montana it's more like, I don't care who you are, you have to wait in line like everyone else!

11:09 am

harpjane

ta6/30?

11:09 am

rururocks

11:10 am

Easter egg posted -- actually worked on Fireworks Forever this time!

11:12 am

rururocks

wow.. how did they do that nan?

11:15 am

cybernan

no idea ru

11:17 am

MollyL

It's the Vegreville egg (Canadian of course) Do a Google search for the very intricate details

11:18 am

cybernan

I just knew it was there -- a lot of small prairie towns in Canada put up roadside "art" that reflected their communities a few years back (when money was more plentiful). Vegreville has a large Ukranian population.

11:19 am

rururocks

so sort of a local yolk-el kind of thing?

11:19 am

MollyL

You'd have to be pretty hard boiled not to love it

11:20 am

rururocks

people in Vegreville have to come out of their shells

11:21 am

rururocks

everyone in Vegreville scrambles for destinations

11:21 am

MollyL

I hope no one poaches the idea

11:21 am

rururocks

I hear the girls are over-easy

11:22 am

harpjane

time to get ready for my day. 29 to finish later!

11:22 am

rururocks

*remarks board for Harp's progress*

11:23 am

MollyL

Thank you. We wouldn't want to lose track of anyone's progress

11:23 am

rururocks

come on molly that last one was a good one

11:24 am

MollyL

You don't really think I'm going to groan do you? I leave that to your fan girls.

11:27 am

rururocks

well... not really

11:34 am

MollyL

I'm actually kind of egged out. I just deviled a bunch of them. : D

11:43 am

rururocks

wow.. i'd be a basket case if I had that many eggs

11:49 am

zoozzoom

Ok an œuf is an œuf!

11:49 am

11:50 am

rururocks

11:52 am

zoozzoom

I so want to eat that Easter egg in, molly's, icon!

11:55 am

rururocks

<--off of chocolate now

11:56 am

zoozzoom

Had too much today?

11:57 am

MollyL

Mr Good Diet strikes again

11:58 am

rururocks

no..it's just not agreeing with me nowadays

11:58 am

zoozzoom

I have had one cadbury's creme egg..and half a packet of m&ms peanut.

11:59 am

MollyL

I saw this horrible thing on the internet about Cadbury creme eggs deep fried in cake crumbs and Cocoa Krispies. It made me gag.

11:59 am

rururocks

ugh

12:00 pm

zoozzoom

eeeew no i would not like that either..why do they always spoil things.

12:00 pm

periwinkle

eww, that sounds disgusting. why do people feel the need to deep fry everything?

12:00 pm

zoozzoom

They even batter mars bars here.

12:00 pm

rururocks

I like chicken deep fried..that's about it

12:00 pm

MollyL

You might as well sit down with a bowl of sugar and a spoon

12:01 pm

zoozzoom

Ooh yes me too, Ruru.I love deep fired chicken!

12:01 pm

zoozzoom

fried*

12:01 pm

rururocks

I only have it once a year though

12:02 pm

zoozzoom

I have it about 12 times a year :-)

12:02 pm

MollyL

Fried chicken and fried shrimp are my downfall. It's a rare treat if I have either one.

12:02 pm

rururocks

oh.. you'd love the fried shrimp at Terra Molly

12:03 pm

rururocks

they're like buttah!

12:03 pm

zoozzoom

you guys always make me hungry..Need to find something other than chocolate now!

12:03 pm

rururocks

LOL zooz

12:03 pm

MollyL

Ah buttah. A big stick of buttah.

12:03 pm

rururocks

with buttah.. there's no margarine of error

12:05 pm

MollyL

I gave up on margarine a long time ago. I would rather have dry toast than toast with that stuff on it.

12:10 pm

rururocks

never had margarine only butter

12:11 pm

Judi

Hello, all! Happy Easter. Did someone say buttah?

12:11 pm

rururocks

we did .. we did !!

12:12 pm

Judi

Love buttah. Hate that margarine crap. Love olive oil too.

12:12 pm

rururocks

<---love olive oil

12:12 pm

MollyL

Even worse are those gloppy "spreads" with ingredients that make my hair curl

12:13 pm

rururocks

spreads make my hairs curl too

12:13 pm

Judi

Frightful. I'm into coconut oil/milk now too. Divine stuff.

12:13 pm

MollyL

Har dee har
: P

12:13 pm

rururocks

:D

12:14 pm

rururocks

I haven't tried Coconut milk stuff. I see it in the stores

12:15 pm

MollyL

Coconut oil is pricey here

12:15 pm

rururocks

I do the soy milk with vanilla flavoring

12:15 pm

Judi

Bought coconut creme the other day. It's liked canned whipped creme. Outta dis world.

12:15 pm

MollyL

Which is fine with me because I can't stand the taste or smell of coconut

12:16 pm

MollyL

Ru, you really are the poster boy for healthy eating

12:16 pm

rururocks

Oh. I like coconut.. especially coconut crème pie

12:16 pm

rururocks

I need to start eating even more healthily .. I can't seem to drop more than five pounds

12:17 pm

MollyL

Are you aiming to fit into your Speedo this summer?

12:18 pm

rururocks

nope.. I'm past the speedo age now

12:18 pm

bichon

I am getting hungry reading this

12:18 pm

rururocks

I'm more dignified than that

12:18 pm

MollyL

Probably bad timing for that comment to come after Speedo talk

12:19 pm

rururocks

there was a day I looked good in speedos.. but now.. nah

12:21 pm

MollyL

I've never been a Speedo fan

12:22 pm

rururocks

They aren't really comfortable

12:22 pm

rururocks

I think they look better on women than men

12:22 pm

Judi

Gotta agree with Molly on that one. No one ever looked good in a Speedo. Maybe if you wore it on your head as a swim cap.

12:22 pm

MollyL

Oh great. Now I'm having Speedo head visions

12:25 pm

Judi

*dares Ruru to post a Speedo selfie icon pic*

Ah, that is wrong too. Her name had a D in it. Short for Mrs. Thatcher then.

12:32 pm

MollyL

I'm just as happy with no speedo pictures being posted here. Things get frightening enough.

12:33 pm

rururocks

yes.. Molly can be overly sensitive at times judi.. please refrain from putting thoughts in her head

12:33 pm

MollyL

*Gnashes teeth*

12:34 pm

Judi

So true. Ironic though. These days, the guys bathing suits are more board short style and cover up everything. And the girls/womens bathing suits seem to be getting skimpier. Quiet discouraging for those of us who aren't a size 2 (or less).

12:34 pm

bichon

ty Molly

12:34 pm

Judi

*quite* rather.

12:35 pm

bichon

I always wear a one piece sun bocking suit. Hides everything

12:37 pm

Judi

I think that's called a burkha, bichon.

12:38 pm

bichon

LOL Judi. It covers your upper arms, shoulders and upper thighs

12:38 pm

bichon

ra 7, pls

12:38 pm

Judi

Like a wet suit?

12:39 pm

bichon

Yes, but it has special sun blocking properties. Made in Australia

12:39 pm

Judi

Interesting. Will have to look that up.

12:41 pm

bichon

They make a whole line of them. People look at me strangely, but at least I don't burn

12:41 pm

The winning ticket in the Irish Lottery (€10.6 Million) was sold in the shop where I bought my ticket yesterday. I almost had a heart attack as I checked my ticket..... Not me, sadly. I only hope I am fond of the winner. It would kill me if the jackpot was won by somebody I dislike!

3:36 pm

3:39 pm

You need to go find that woman who won 34 million and is giving most of it away.

3:40 pm

Soodle

I didn't hear about her... where is she? And what is her address? I will begin my begging letter toot sweet.

3:41 pm

MollyL

She's up in the orange part of your island

3:42 pm

MollyL

And it was Euromillions not The Irish Lottery

3:42 pm

Soodle

Wow. I didn't hear about that. Generous lady!

In other news, what was your Easter feast?

3:49 pm

Soodle

Well, nobody in this house likes lamb. (Mainly because I detest the stuff, and never cook it...), so we had a lovely roast beef, roast potatoes, roasted veggies, yorkshire pudding dinner. Preceded by Dublin Bay Prawns, and followed with strawberries and cream. It was delish! How was yours?

3:51 pm

MollyL

I am not a lamb lover either. It smells funny. Mine is still in the oven. Pork roast, oven roasted new potatoes in olive oil and herbs and fresh asparagus. Strawberry shortcake for dessert. Your dinner sounds wonderful.

3:55 pm

Soodle

MMmm. I am very fond of pork. The speed with which Son of Soodle demolishes food still fascinates me. It just cannot reach his taste buds. One minute there's a full plate in front of him, and next thing .... it's gone! Mind you, he was heading off to a day at the races, and was in a hurry, but, seriously, the food couldn't have touched the sides of his gullet!

3:57 pm

Soodle

For his day at the races, he went off sporting a very bright pink shirt. His sister remarked that he must be very comfortable with his sexuality to be wearing such a pink shirt, causing much angst.....

Trifioso

hello dear friends, and a very blessed easter to all who celebrate same

Always helps to know your drink order when visiting Chinese bars.

Hi stid! happy Easter

5:11 pm

Thank you hego. We have had a very pleasant day. We dyed the eggs yesterday and my husband has helped for the past few years since the grandboys have grown up.

5:11 pm

Nice! Hope the family is well. :)

5:12 pm

5:21 pm

5:21 pm

hego

ouch!

5:22 pm

penquis

yes, it appeared to be coming on after charging....but then it showed "no service"....

5:22 pm

hego

did you try packing it in salt?

5:22 pm

penquis

no....just tried to air dry it...

5:23 pm

hego

Don't know if that works, but keep hearing it.

5:23 pm

penquis

it's probably too late for that anyway...

5:23 pm

penquis

now i just turned it on and it seems to be working....

5:23 pm

hego

too bad

5:25 pm

penquis

well it doesn't really connect to the number....seems to be trying....

5:26 pm

Dropped mine in water once. Left it in a sealed bag of rice overnight. Did the trick. Now have a bag of "electronics rice" stashed in my desk for the future... :) Good luck!

5:26 pm

5:27 pm

Hope the phone shapes up and behaves. No fun replacing them...

5:37 pm

Soodle

I'll be going on holiday soon with my daughter. I'd love some recommendations for books to read on the beach. Nothing too heavy, but nothing too inane either. Can anybody suggest anything suitable?

5:38 pm

hego

Soodle, "All the Light We Cannot See"

5:38 pm

Uneaixoise

oh yes, WONDERFUL!!

5:38 pm

Agreat story, beautifully written.

5:39 pm

Hi Une.

5:39 pm

Soodle

Oooh thanks Hego. I'll add that to my Amazon account. Thank you.

5:39 pm

Uneaixoise

hey "-))

5:39 pm

hego

Bye Penq.

5:39 pm

hego

Soodle, Une and I give it 4 stars. :)

5:42 pm

Soodle

I just ordered it on Amazon, Hego. I'll be back, wagging my finger at you if I din't like it! Lol!

5:42 pm

hego

It's a deal! But you will like it.

5:43 pm

Soodle

:-)

5:46 pm

Soodle

Anybody else got any suggestions? I usually go through a couple of books a day as I endure the torment of lying on a sunbed in the roasting sun all day long, with no work, no commitments, no housework.. (Poor Soodle)....!

5:47 pm

phandmd

Happy Ressurection Sunday!

5:48 pm

And to you phan.

5:49 pm

Soodle, did you read "The girl on the Train?

5:50 pm

Soodle

I did, Hego, and I loved it!

5:51 pm

hego

5:51 pm

lynxxx

Good morning. Soodle - try Eddie's Bastard

5:52 pm

hego

That sounds interesting. :)

5:52 pm

Soodle

Ok, Lynn. I will. It sounds interesting!

5:52 pm

Soodle

Ha ha. Snap Hego!

5:53 pm

hego

snap!

5:54 pm

lynxxx

I'm interested Soodle - why do you order from Amazon? We order most of our books from Book Depository as there is no freight cost - and Amazons can be quite hefty

5:55 pm

hego

I have an electronic reader. No shipping.

5:55 pm

Soodle

I order the Kindle books, Lynn. No shipping, no wait, no fuss.

5:55 pm

lynxxx

aah of course!

5:55 pm

phandmd

I never thought I would like a kindle, but I love it!

5:55 pm

lynxxx

(here's me, back in the dark ages)

5:55 pm

hego

instant gratification. :)

5:56 pm

Soodle

You can even get the first couple of chapters free to see if you like the cut of it's jib!

5:56 pm

stidgmere

I use the download also, I have Kindle but can use it on my ipad, also.

5:56 pm

phandmd

and so much easier to read in bed!

5:57 pm

lynxxx

I went and looked at buying one ages ago, but didn't like the feel/look of it - I should have persisted

5:57 pm

Soodle

Me too, Stid!

5:57 pm

phandmd

I have a paperwhite. It's excellent.

5:57 pm

phandmd

I only wanted it for reading purposes.

5:57 pm

hego

Or on my phone if I need to.

5:58 pm

stidgmere

Yes. It makes bedtime reading much lighter.

5:59 pm

Soodle

Hey!!! All these booklovers should be able to populate my reading days for the next month!! C'mon guys..... Recommendations, please....

5:59 pm

stidgmere

Of course, I already told folks about how I ordered "50 shades of gray" because it was about the great NOrthwest. Found the delete button pretty quickly. It was not meant for my tastes.

5:59 pm

lynxxx

wow - after that chorus, I shall try again

5:59 pm

hego

That is so funny Stid. You told me about that when I saw you.

6:00 pm

stidgmere

I also found the sample choice. That has saved me from other purchases that would have been a waste.

6:00 pm

hego

I tend to forget books as soon as I read them unless they're special.

6:00 pm

Soodle

Ah! The sample button has saved me a fortune!

6:01 pm

lynxxx

I also read Daughter of Persia which I would recommend too - very interesting background on Iran

6:01 pm

hego

Soodle have you read any of Ellie Griffith's books?

6:01 pm

Soodle

On my list, Lynn

6:02 pm

Soodle

No, Hego. Are they worth reading?

6:03 pm

hego

I like them a lot. Good vacation reading. She is an archaeologist in England.

6:03 pm

hego

The main character is.

6:04 pm

Soodle

On my list!!

6:06 pm

Uneaixoise

Amy Poehler's book "Yes Please" was really delightful :-)

6:08 pm

Uneaixoise

and Cheryl Strayed's book Wild was fantastic (true story)

6:10 pm

Soodle

And, for the record. ... Anything by Marian Keyes is fluffy, but hugely entertaining. I recall being on a long haul flight & almost getting put off the plane for laughing out loud in the middle of the night.

6:15 pm

hego

6:21 pm
