worzel is a phantom today
1:54 am

have spent most of the day lying down, reading. actually ate my lnch with an appetite.
1:54 am
sprite

ah, progress is being made, rose. Very wise of you to stay put. It's been quite the ordeal.
1:59 am
flosey

helps when you have a good book
2:00 am
grannyrose

sure does flosey. currently reading the judas strain. riveting!
2:01 am
flosey

2:07 am
flosey

7 to go, maybe in the morning, must get to bed, have to catch the 10: morning ferry - meet with lawyer and after that meet friends for lunch
2:08 am
sprite

sleep well, flosey. I hope the lawyer stuff is not scary. *hugs*
2:08 am
grannyrose

sweet dreams flosey
2:08 am
flosey

no, Rose, about settling the properties in order that there'll be no hard feelings - one, might be better for me to sell and distribute the money
2:09 am
flosey

apparently this lawyer deels in such cases
2:09 am
sprite

ah good. Wise plan. Have a grand day then :)
2:10 am
flosey

it goes to daughters but that means they have to pay taxes while still living in Vancouver so if it sells before we go, it's just a case of leaving cash for them
2:10 am
flosey

the boys names are already on the two farm properties we have
2:11 am
flosey

our names just drop off as we do just that
2:11 am
sprite

smart thinking. Death taxes is one thing I have never ever understood. So totally unfair.
2:12 am
flosey

goodnight and hugs to you both
2:20 am
sprite

rose, did you see my pictures?
2:22 am
grannyrose

duh me, i didn't scroll down far enough. what a pity it has to be cut.
2:23 am
sprite

it is kinda pretty, isn't it? But imagine how much joy the recipient will have from it.
2:23 am
grannyrose

is it naturally curly?
2:24 am
sprite

just wavy, a little bit
2:26 am
grannyrose

i would think a pageboy cut, with turned in layer around your face. perhaps leave it a little longer at the front to curl under your chin.
2:26 am
sprite

and it doesn't HAVE to be cut, don't worry. It is just that A. I think I am too old to walk around with loose hair of this length and B. after the surgery, 90% of the women have severe hairloss for a year or so. Thought if I was gonna donate my hair to charity, I'd better do it while there was still something to donate.
2:27 am
sprite

sounds good!
2:30 am

Hi and hugs
2:30 am

2:31 am

hi Liz :D *hugs* to the both of you.
2:31 am
Lizlin

How are you both today?
2:32 am
sprite

I am fine. Happy to have rose back home and feeling better. Ready to have my hair cut short. And rooting for my kids, who both will be doing English exam this afternoon.
2:32 am
grannyrose

taking quietly still. slept til 10am. spent most of the day lying on bed reading. actually ate lunch with an appetite.
2:32 am
sprite

and you and your beloved?
2:32 am
Lizlin

Sounds very good on all counts.
2:33 am
Lizlin

As ever, we're absolutely fine :)
2:33 am
Lizlin

No pics for me sprite? :(
2:33 am
sprite

great :D Always when I think of you two, I picture you doing jigsaws and walking on the beach.
2:33 am
sprite

oh sure! Hold on, here they come.
2:33 am
Lizlin

Good luck to your kids. I'm sure they'll ace it
2:34 am
Lizlin

And Peter amongst the mozzies, chopping the next bit of fence down, ready for new fencing!
2:36 am
sprite

good man, Peter!
2:36 am
Lizlin

I think so.
2:37 am
sprite

I couldn't agree more, grin. Though you know him best. But he certainly found his way to my heart in a heartbeat, just like you did.
2:37 am
Lizlin

But I'd say the same about you - Rose and Don too
2:38 am
Lizlin

I keep thinking how very very lucky I am to have met you all
2:38 am
sprite

amazing, isn't it? Makes me feel so blessed.
2:38 am
sprite

yeah, exactly that feeling. *group hug*
2:39 am
Lizlin

Definitely
2:39 am
grannyrose

{{group hug}} ditto what sprite said
2:39 am
jbp

clearly, I came in at the right point... group hug {[{[ }]}]
2:40 am
Lizlin

Hi and hugs jbp - it's been a while.
2:40 am
jbp

indeed!
2:40 am
sprite

*opens an arm, pulls jbp into the group, squeeezzzzeeee*
2:40 am
grannyrose

g'day jbp. {{hugs}} for you too honey
2:40 am
jbp

awwww (hugging y'all back)
2:41 am
sprite

how have you been, jbp?
2:41 am
Lizlin

Gotta love babble friends
2:41 am
jbp

hanging in.
2:41 am
sprite

babble friends make fun times more fun, and bad times better to bear.
2:41 am
jbp

my dad's health is failing, so I'm spending pretty much all day every day at his bedside.. not to sound dramatic, b/c it's not like that, really.
2:42 am
jbp

but I am glad to find at least 1 good thing for being out of work
2:42 am
Lizlin

That's very hard for you.
2:42 am
jbp

also, I get to stay up to a million'o clock with you all
2:42 am
sprite

maybe that is why you are out of work now... to give you the chance to be there for your dad and go through this phase with him together.
2:43 am
jbp

yeah. it is what it is. I'm grateful for my husband and that my sister and I are close, geographically and emotionally
2:43 am
Lizlin

I like that thinking
2:43 am
jbp

well, I don'tknow if theat's the universe's plan for me, but I'll take it. ;-)
2:43 am
sprite

hehehe indeed!
2:43 am
jbp

well i hope you8 all are well too
2:44 am
jbp

we keep going back and forth between early spring and full summer here
2:44 am
jbp

kinda zany
2:44 am
sprite

I think it has a certain beauty, if someone can die in the company of his loved ones, and there is enough support and love to guide all of them through the process. Not easy. But, in a way, beautiful.
2:45 am
jbp

he has his snarky and lucid moments still, but i like to flatter myself that I am giving him peace by being there...
2:45 am
sprite

you are doing better than we do here then. We oscillate between winter and spring. It is the end of may and we still have occasional frost at night, for crying out loud.
2:46 am
Lizlin

I'll stay quiet on this subject!
2:46 am
jbp

us too
2:46 am
sprite

I don't think that is flattering yourself at all. I am certain your company is giving him just that.
2:46 am
jbp

aren't you in fall/winter, Lizlin?
2:46 am
ch1212

Well this is a delightful surprise. I have not seen many of you in a long time ... I normally don't play at this hour. (waving to sprite and all)
2:46 am
sprite

lol... Liz has lovely weather?
2:47 am
sprite

hey ch! *hugs* How nice to see you.
2:47 am
Lizlin

Can't stay quiet dos you all need to be here. 25 C today and winter begins at the end of the month!
2:47 am
jbp

well, my dad and I have always had a rocky relationship (I'm the younger, more rebelllious daughter) so ...my sister and I have lots to amuse us
2:47 am
sprite

sounds about perfect to me, Liz!
2:48 am
Lizlin

It's still so hard watching a person fade away.
2:48 am
sprite

rebellious, hm... a good thing. Shows you have power and energy :)
2:48 am
jbp

anyway, I just wanted to stop in and say hi to all y'all... I wish you all a peaceful night/pleasant day. ;-) will be back to rassle this grid later
2:48 am
jbp

thanks, all
2:48 am
Lizlin

Sleep well jbp
2:49 am
sprite

have a good day, jbp. And lots of love and hugs for the whole process with your dad.
2:49 am
Lizlin

And from me too
2:49 am
Lizlin

Hi ch - didn't mean to ignore you
2:50 am
ch1212

ditto. Been where you are, and know how difficult it can be. Light and energy to you, jbp.
2:50 am

how have you been, ch?
2:50 am

fireflies
2:51 am
ch1212

Well, I'm being checked for some cognitive issues right now. (OH! Congratulations, sprite!) I have an EEG tomorrow and am required to stay awake for 24 hours before, with (this part is the worst) NO coffee.
2:51 am
Lizlin

Congrats sprite. I'll look forward to seeing the pics. Servers playing up right now.
2:52 am
ch1212

So feeling particularly grateful for babble time :)
2:52 am
Lizlin

Good luck with the tests and staying awake for that time.
2:53 am
sprite

wow that is severe. Lots of walking around and taking walks? I hope the test will go well and the findings will be good.
2:53 am
grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!
2:54 am
sprite

ok Liz, they will keep :)
2:54 am
ch1212

Thanks. The MRI showed I have an "unremarkable" brain. Never thought I'd be happy to hear how UNremarkable my brain is. :)

Thanks, Sprite. We'll see. My beloved is wonderful.
2:55 am
sprite

hehehe in medical terms it is so nice to be unremarkable :)
2:56 am
ch1212

:D And sprite, how are you? I do think of you whenever I see your name. We share the same underlying current that sometimes tries to pull us under.
2:56 am
sprite

yay for good beloveds. We are blessed that way. Rose's Don did great with her illness, and my love is great with my new diet... truly a bliss to have a loving beloved.
2:57 am
ch1212

It is, isn't it? What diet are you on?
2:57 am
sprite

I am doing fine at the moment. Am done with therapy, have been going strong for over a year now without extra help. And you?
2:58 am
sprite

carb-free diet. I am morbidly obese and cannot easily lose weight. Am going for a gastric bypass, but need to lose 10 kg before the operation. So we needed drastic measures... am seeing a dietician who suggested carb-free.
3:00 am
ch1212

That's so good to hear. I'm very aware of managing my depression, and so when my cognitive issues started cropping up, I did a self check, wondering if maybe they were psychological. But there is no underlying sucking going on, and my life is very happy and stress-free. Plus, the symptoms are such I've never had before --- complete memory blanks, burning food on the stove because I forgot, tripping over words, not rememebring certain words or faces. Kind of anxiety inducing, but so far I've got hope for a simply, treatable, outcome.
3:01 am
ch1212

Carb-free! Those do work, that's for sure.
3:02 am
sprite

yeah that could be caused by a load of innocent things, ch. I totally understand the anxiety, but your hope is very realistic.
3:03 am
sprite

I will say this about the diet: I feel a lot better since I started doing it. More energy, clearer in my head, sharper and more alive.
3:05 am
ch1212

Sprite, so glad to know you are doing the diet in a way that's healthy, with a dietician's input. You'll get there. My stepsister had gastric bypass about 10 years ago, and is still doing well.

Carb-free does feel better. I've been on it before, and defnitely felt more energy and mental acuity. Mmmm... maybe I should go back on it -- might help my brain, and certainly my enormous thighs.
3:06 am
sprite

could very well be, ch. And maybe the doctors already did, but in case they didn't: you might want to have your blood tested, extensively, for vitamins. It is very easy to have low vit D or B, for instance, and that causes the weirdest symptoms.
3:09 am
grannyrose

starting to feel a little shaky. going to lie down for a bit. good luck for tomorrow, ch. {{hugs}} dear sprite. hope you have a good day.xoxoxox
3:09 am
sprite

*hugs* my dear rose. Take care of yourself. Sleep well and have a nice, lazy day tomorrow :)
3:09 am
ch1212

They did check for low levels of vitamin B and for thyroid issues, but I'm fine on those. At this point, we've ruled out vitamins, thyroid, brain tumor, silent stroke, brain plaque ... now I'm hoping the EEG will show mini-seizures that can be treated with medication. My neurologist also has me taking a battery of neuropsych tests to determine the level of impairment.

Anyway ... I don't mean to go on about it. It's lovely to see you again. And you too Liz (not ignoring you!) Hello grannyrose, and thank you. {{{ hugs }}}
3:09 am
Lizlin

Feel better rose, hugs
3:10 am
sprite

will keep you in my thoughts and prayers, ch. Must be off, alas. Great talking to you.
Liz, *hugs* too, for the both of you.

we're just about ready to build an ark in the back yard here So much rain...
5:17 am

We have had a bit, but not much. It's cooled down quite a bit.
5:18 am

we are si accustomed to drought here, it's hard to know how to react when it does rain a lot.
5:26 am

Good morning, everyone:)
5:43 am
Angelsong

morning, crossy
5:45 am
crosshair

Interesting. Reading that some areas in California may institute "groundwater metering," so even though it may be your well, on your property, this may allow those in charge to slap limitations on how much water you draw from beneath your own. Things must be getting very tight indeed in some areas:( property
5:45 am
crosshair

mm, posting moved the word property:)
5:47 am
jwr

crossy, it's one thing to take water from the property -- but quite another to move the property itself! What are you up to?
5:49 am
crosshair

move the property? it is not about moving the property. the story was about drilling on your own property and regulating how much water you can extract from beneath your own feet. I am not "up to" anything. Just commenting on the drought out west
5:49 am
crosshair

My brother is out west and I try and keep track of the drought areas around him is all.
5:51 am
jwr

Just joshing you. And yes, the water shortage is severe. It rained (sort of) today for the first time in months -- I call it a "falling fog". Very dangerous because of all the oil on the streets, and all the drivers that drive faster in the rain (what's that about?). You NEED water ... when you have baco.... oops.
5:52 am
Scrabbler

HI all. That drought is reaching dangerous proportions.
5:54 am
crosshair

lol. Do not understand you. jwr. Indeed, scrabby it is getting desperate in some areas.
5:55 am

I am fortunate to live next to a great lake, as you do, Crossy.

6:00 am

6:00 am
crosshair

anyways, scrabby, is that naughty wire-chewing bunny behaving today?
6:01 am
Scrabbler

Remy is sitting next to me demanding to be petted. As usual.
6:02 am
crosshair

that is cute. I was always under the impression that rabbits are not really social animals. have never had a rabbit as a pet myself.
6:06 am
Scrabbler

They are very social animals. Remy is very bonded to me. He sits next to me on the couch and nudges me with his nose or front paws if I ignore him. He is at the gate at the bottom of the stairs in the morning, excited to see Mama.
6:09 am
crosshair

lol. It paints a cute mental picture:)
6:10 am
crosshair

Will they go up and down the stairs at will if you forget to use the gate?
6:10 am
Scrabbler

I had a wee Netehrland Dwarf bunny named Sebastian that slept next to me in bed. He jumped up next to me when I got into bed. During the night I would find him next to my head or down at my feet.
6:11 am
Scrabbler

Yes, they do stairs easily.
6:11 am
crosshair

Thought so. I have seen them do some incredible leaps in the wild.
6:12 am
Scrabbler

And I had 2 bigg bunnies that could jump over regular gates so I had to buy tall ones intended for big dogs.
6:13 am
crosshair

reminds me. the other day the mrs and I saw a white-tailed dear clear an 8 foot high chain-link fence on the hill. Was one of those time I wish i owned a quality camera:(
6:14 am
Scrabbler

I love watching the deer leap.
6:15 am
crosshair

it seems they do it almost without effort. the all must have had a good foraging winter as well. They are all well-fed and glossy:)
6:15 am
crosshair

a few that i have seen are even almost "chubby" lol
6:15 am
Scrabbler

The deer here starved through March with a deep snowpack. They were eating twigs and branches.

6:52 am
Trifioso

better than keeping it in the house, dear one
6:53 am
bichon

Yes, sanitation in those days was lacking
6:53 am
MollyL

True. Then there were several other explanations, one of them being the toilet was in Room 100
6:54 am

Yes, outhouses were a big step up at the time for many
6:54 am

6:55 am

6:55 am

indeed. some of those old sulfa-based meds were nasty. Yaa for penicillin!
6:56 am

Wasn't the flush toilet invented by Tom Crapper
6:57 am
crosshair

John Harrington made one in 1595 apparently:)
6:57 am

... yeah ... but it doesn't do much good unless you've got a municipal sewage system that works well enough to transport the waste material away
6:59 am

Or a septic tank
6:59 am

I believe crossy is right, and that is how we came to call it a "john"
7:00 am
