melonheadjujube
hi, well, here's a nice substantial grid.
1:48 am
Lizlin
Hi again. Hi Mel. How was Europe?
1:50 am
melonheadjujube
Utterly grand. Home about a week now. Still have not unpacked. Five weeks at liberty is something I would wish on anyone.
1:50 am
melonheadjujube
doge
1:51 am
Lizlin
Sounds wonderful
1:51 am
melonheadjujube
ooops!
1:51 am
melonheadjujube
It was.
1:52 am
melonheadjujube
I finished up with a few days in Iceland, then NYC, before Amtrak-ing home to Cleveland.
1:52 am
Lizlin
I sooooo want to go to Iceland! Ever since Old Icelandic was a unit of my degree.
1:54 am
melonheadjujube
I stared at the sky. The movement of clouds is amazing. I felt like I was at the command center of all the weather in the world. And. . . the Elf Garden!
1:54 am
Lizlin
Hope you took loads of pics.
1:55 am
melonheadjujube
Too many. I will probably edit and arrange them once the weather gets crappy.
1:55 am
melonheadjujube
I sketched, too. A little.
1:56 am
Lizlin
I'm still working on our New Zealand pics from February :( - but it's fun and brings back so many memories.
1:57 am
melonheadjujube
I find I'm remembering more and more of the trip, especially the first cities, Amsterdam and Berlin.
1:58 am
melonheadjujube
I fell in love with France. My airbnb digs (NYC, AMst, Berlin< Paris, and Iceland) were all fantastic.
1:58 am
Lizlin
Had you been to Europe before?
1:58 am
Lizlin
I love Amsterdam - we met up with Sprite last year, when we were there.
1:58 am
melonheadjujube
I'm starting to fade. Catch up with you tomorrow maybe.
1:58 am
Lizlin
Sleep well.
1:58 am
melonheadjujube
Sprite! How much fun that must have been!
1:58 am
melonheadjujube
Now to poof on out of here. Nite!

3:07 am
Lizlin
Good thanks. Also pretty busy.
3:07 am
sprite
what did you all do?
3:09 am
Lizlin
Main thing was going out with a group of friends on Saturday night. Good company but average food. And you?
3:09 am
Lizlin
It's also been beautiful on the beach the last few days.
3:10 am
sprite
picking up husband from his last camping spot, doing heaps of laundry, getting my girl ready for her vacation.
3:10 am
sprite
oh how lovely. It must be such a bliss to live where you do.
3:10 am
Lizlin
Good to have hubby back I hope. Fully refreshed after his break.
3:11 am
Lizlin
Odd though - 25 C today and down to 10 C later tonight.
3:11 am
Lizlin
Relative like you said.
3:12 am
sprite
yeah :) He had a wonderful vacation, and so did Terra. I enjoyed my alone time but it is good to have him back home.
3:13 am
Lizlin
Sounds good.
3:13 am
sprite
10C probably feels pretty cold in comparison
3:14 am
Lizlin
It does but I've just put on trackies etc.
3:20 am
sprite
ro4! Get your cute butt in here! :D
3:21 am
Lizlin
Not listening!
3:21 am
sprite
chasing squirrels again, of course.
3:22 am
Lizlin
This grid has slowed right down for me.
3:23 am
sprite
it is a better size than yesterday's, at least
3:23 am
Lizlin
True but it suited me for the day.
3:24 am
rolin
lol...Liz you aussie...you put on 'trackies'??..
3:24 am
sprite

3:30 am
sprite

3:33 am
grannyrose
are you all well? and did i see liz has pulled out the trackies?
3:34 am
Lizlin
But it was beautiful today - clear skies mean cold nights.
3:34 am
sprite
pulled out the trackies and thrown the doona on the bed. But she calls it the duvet.
3:34 am
sprite
even threatened her husband to the point he calls it a duvet too
3:34 am
Lizlin
I'm mean like that :)
3:34 am
zoozzoom
You say dona I say duvet..lets call the whole thing off :-)
3:35 am

3:36 am
Lizlin
I heard that. So glad I'm here!
3:36 am
Lizlin
I tried that too!
3:37 am
sprite
I tried that too, zooz. Guess the do-it-yourself is not to enable's liking
3:39 am
Lizlin
Lol. Just seen that one.
3:39 am
sprite
not sure I have seen that one yet
3:40 am
zoozzoom
No I am trying to see it.
3:40 am
Frances
If it was an acceptable word it would be to6/27.
3:41 am
sprite

3:43 am
zoozzoom
I did see on the news a couple of weeks ago that somewhere in Australia thay had a lot of snow fall.But can ot remember where abouts it was.
3:44 am
sprite
wouldn't expect it to snow at all in Aussie
3:44 am
grannyrose
in our snowfields, zooz. the blue mountains, falls creek, mount donnabuang.
3:44 am
Lizlin
In Queensland, Zooz. Really unusual but it missed us, I'm pleased to say.
3:45 am
sprite

3:45 am
zoozzoom

3:45 am
grannyrose

zoozzoom
Oh haha I like that one, sprite!
3:46 am
grannyrose
as liz said, also in the south of queensland. a state that which is supposed to be the sunshine state.
3:47 am
zoozzoom
Of course a lot of homes in Australia do not have central heating. So if it does get nippy you do have to find a heat source from somewhere.
3:48 am
Lizlin
Tell me about it!
3:48 am
Lizlin
Tell me about it!
3:48 am
Lizlin
Tell me about it!
3:48 am
Lizlin
tell me about it
3:48 am

I just recently learned most houses don't have central heating there! To me, that is almost unthinkable, lol. Brrrrrr.
3:48 am
Lizlin
Sorry - text didn't seem to be entering.
3:49 am

we understand you feel strongly about this, Liz
3:49 am

4:22 am
sprite
can't you lock them up somewhere away from your sleeping room?
4:23 am
sprite
bedroom, bed room
4:23 am
sukee
I did lock them out last night, but since I got up they won't leave me alone.
4:23 am
sprite
they are thinking: how nice, our human is nocturnal too!
4:24 am
grannyrose
my son and his wife locked their cats out of their bedrioom, and the wretched cats learned how to open the door.
4:24 am
sukee
Twain definitely should be there, it's a real word isn't it?
4:24 am
sprite
cats are so smart
4:24 am
sprite
Yeah, but it is a phantom today, sukee
4:25 am
sukee
Luckily this bedroom door can't be opened by cats, it has round handles.
4:25 am
grannyrose
so he rigged it so they couldn't open it. the next thing the cats did was jump and bang against the door, and then lay down, and pushed their paws under the door, while mewing very loudly.
4:25 am
sprite
omg rose! Lolllll
4:26 am
sukee
I think these guys are used to being left alone at night, I heard one meow this morning :)
4:26 am
grannyrose
i'm just waiting for them to learn how to crawl under the door like in that youtube video.
4:27 am
sprite
cats are amazing. Everything their heads fit through, the rest of their bodies fit through

7:37 am
Anniebrook
I know most of the names of the groups because my daughter played all of them loudly. So learned the names...not my time.
7:37 am

I think my mom would agree, annie! She did LOVE Sting though - but who didn't? YUMMY

hi river :)
7:40 am
Trifioso
A fabulous story Car and I delight in telling anyone who will listen is the time my mum drove us to see U2 and actually attended with us. The man in front of her smoked probably eight joints over the course of the show, 100% of which blew right back in her face. By the end of the show that poor woman was LIT. And THEN - she says she is "hungry" on the way home, and can we pleeeeeease go to Burger King (this is a woman who never asked for fast food in her life). She was all kinds of chatty and babbly with the woman at the drive through, and then orders a WHALER - Car and I almost wet our pants howling at the whole thing.
7:40 am
Trifioso

8:07 am
Trifioso
its creepy as hell, I have not been able to connect with him at all, and last week they cancelled all but one session, so the money SUCKS. I feel awful saying this, but I can't wait until this is over. its absolutely drudgery, and I could be doing MUCH more productive things with the time. But, oh, this poor boy....after all, at the end of the day, it's a child's quality of life here!
8:08 am
Trifioso
kn4.8 and the plural for the 5, phae
8:08 am
72 Temple Owl
so no pay when they cancel? that is not fair to you, but you are not a union teacher. sucks
8:08 am
mkg
kn 4 and plural for the 5.
8:08 am
Scrabbler
There are SO many needy kids out there. Kids that need attentive, caring parents. So many lost kids.
8:09 am
Anniebrook
Trif, Is the child autistic?
8:09 am
Trifioso
I know scrabbler and I know that whinging about this poor kid makes me sound like such a bitch.
8:09 am
72 Temple Owl
but this is trif's livelihood here. she cannot help him if they won't allow it
8:09 am
Trifioso
no annie - crippled by an anxiety disorder. I cant even get him to sit outside on the back porch of his own house. poor kid
8:10 am
Trifioso
I am a union teacher, but tutoring is outside the union rules. no tutoring, no pay.
8:10 am
Anniebrook
He should be seen by a psychoanalyst.
8:10 am
72 Temple Owl
you are not! must accept that it is beyond your control
8:10 am
72 Temple Owl
oh that sucks worse!
8:11 am
Trifioso
the principal, bless her heart, DID send the department of Children and Family services to investigate, but the dad is a cop, so what do you know, they released the case.
8:11 am
Trifioso
they all should, annie, from the parents on down
8:12 am
Scrabbler
Poor kid.
8:12 am

Trifioso
yes TO, though I am being moved to a new one in the fall, and given new duties. It's a bit nervous-making, but I will give it a go and see how I do.

8:27 am
72 Temple Owl

8:35 am
72 Temple Owl

8:35 am
Trifioso
I doubt it, and I really can't say. He makes me read aloud to him.
8:36 am
Trifioso
his comprehension is excellent, and I have seen him physically write, so I know he can do it.

Une, beautiful dog. nice name, my grandson's name is Jack. I hope he gets a good home too.
2:19 pm
Anniebrook
All the dogs you have met are handsome and beautiful. I cannot understand how people can just walk away from them. The only valid reason is death of the owner.
2:19 pm
Uneaixoise
he was very sweet and shy -- can't imagine surrendering a beautiful 9yr-old dog like that . . . sigh
2:20 pm

hi curi
2:20 pm
curi75
some people can't afford to care for their pet. Or in the case of my exbf decided to spend money on other stuff. ugh
2:21 pm
Anniebrook
a definite ugh, curi.
2:21 pm
Uneaixoise
death of owner yes -- and sometimes I can understand if the owner is moving into assisted living or an apt where dogs aren't allowed -- BUT it seems like you'd try to find another family for him/her rather than surrendering to a shelter
2:21 pm
Uneaixoise
most dogs surrendered to a shelter are put to sleep within 3 days
2:21 pm
curi75
yeah after a friend had him, and I had the dog. eventually i persuaded him to give the dog to a stranger rather then surrender the dog.
2:22 pm
Anniebrook
These animals are just thrown away. Thank goodness for people like you, Une.
2:23 pm
curi75
yeah I moved from his craziness and I have 2 cats.. so I found a place with no dogs.. as that is a ton of responsibility.
