{{hugs}} and good morning my dearest sprite. how are you today?
3:12 am
sprite

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend. I am a bit blech... diarrhea and cramps and allover blechness. How are you and how was your day?
3:13 am
grannyrose

have only done two small loads of washing, and re-ma4 our bed. no real pain today so that is good.
3:14 am
sprite

that at least is progress. And well done on limiting yourself in the chores.
3:14 am
grannyrose

do you have a storm brewing? or is your body rejecting another fo4?
3:14 am
sprite

as far as I know, I have eaten nothing special. Storm brewing could very well be.
3:15 am
grannyrose

tomorrow i will get groovy's bed ready for her.
3:15 am
sprite

I am jealous :) You gals are gonna have such a terrific time.
3:16 am
grannyrose

oh yeah. and herinferalady is joining us.
3:16 am
sprite

for real? Omg that is just awesome. You will hug both of them from me, won't you?
3:17 am
grannyrose

yes honey. will take pics too and share with you.
3:17 am
sprite

lovely. Three of my favorite babble gals meeting up.
3:17 am
grannyrose

*grin* aw shucks
3:17 am
sprite

:D
3:19 am
grannyrose

had about 1/2 kilo of hair removed from my head today. my hair is soooo short. and it feels great.
3:20 am
sprite

oh that is great, rose. Feels lovely, doesn't it :)
3:20 am
grannyrose

so much cooler too
3:42 am
grannyrose

where you go?? you got squirrels too?
3:42 am
sprite

no I am right here, sweetie
3:43 am
grannyrose

ahhhh, there you are. are you still feeling blech?
3:43 am
sprite

very. I hope my bowels will calm down before I have to leave for the long auto drive.
3:43 am
grannyrose

have you checked your BSL?
3:45 am
sprite

hmm no I haven't. Do you think it is caused by high bsl?
3:45 am
grannyrose

no, a low bsl more likely.
3:45 am
sprite

ok will check
3:46 am
grannyrose

have you something in the house you can eat or drink which give you a slow release of sugar?
3:47 am
sprite

5.4 That is low but not extremely low.
3:47 am
grannyrose

no that is not too low, that is about normal. have you had your brekky yet?
3:49 am
sprite

am taking it while we speak. Here they say 7 is normal. Below 6 is low. But it doesn't become worrisome until you reach about 2.
3:49 am
sprite

which hardly ever happens if you don't shoot insulin.
3:52 am
grannyrose

perhaps if your body is used to a higher bsl you maybe reacting to the lower levels.
3:53 am
sprite

could be. Well, I hope it settles soon. I want to go to the wife of one of my ward mates in the hospital and get my nails done :)
3:53 am
ivesy3

5:18 am

12C here atm with a high of 16C later on. Cannot complain.
5:19 am
bichon

Mid 70's here. Pretty warm after the last few
5:21 am
crosshair

Dipping down to near freezing at night now so our fall colours are really starting to get going.
5:22 am
bichon

Ours won't start til next week

Good morning. It's going up to 19 here today :)

Good day, kids.

Hi Scrabs.
5:55 am
crosshair

Howdy, scrabby. Loved all the picture of your trip :)
5:57 am
Scrabbler

We had a wonderful time--great hikes and paddling.
5:58 am
sukee

Well, excuse me...
6:01 am
Scrabbler

Why, sukee?
6:01 am
crosshair

Howdy, sukee :))
6:01 am
crosshair

I would never forget you :)
6:02 am
Scrabbler

I said hi to the kids.
6:02 am
crosshair

:)
6:03 am
crosshair

I love that you bring a portable scrabble game with you :)
6:07 am
Scrabbler

Always. That set has been in many airports and locations in the US.
6:08 am
Scrabbler

I am meeting Hego and her husband for dinner tonight!!
6:08 am
crosshair

I can see it now... Scrabby and sis, sitting by the campfire. A loon 's call echoes hauntingly acrossy the still waters, when the majesty of nature is interrupted by scrabby saying " Mixlepick is so too a word!!" only to discover that they left the scrabble dictionary back at home :)
6:08 am
crosshair

Yaa for babble get-togethers!
6:10 am
Scrabbler

Crossy, we have played Scrabble next to many ponds and lakes, often hearing loons wail, and two days ago we watched sea planes take off and land on Seventh Lake, while we sat at a picnic table next to a fire in front of a lean-to. We always have the dictionary with us for challenges.
6:10 am
crosshair

You should also air brush a scrabble board on the hull of the kayak. That way you just have to carry a bag of tiles :)
6:10 am
crosshair

Love it :)
6:11 am
Scrabbler

We kayaked to a campsite with an extra-large lean-to. It was huge.
6:12 am
crosshair

I see those lean-to's often in your pictures. Wish we had things like that. they must come in handy
6:13 am
crosshair

More often that not, I end up stringing a large tarp overhead to stay dry long enough to set up the tent when the weather is foul ;)
6:13 am
rubyfoo

Good morning!

((ruby))
6:13 am
Scrabbler

On one hike, around Cascade Lake, which was 2 miles from the parking area, we came upon stone walls and foundations, and some clearings. A google search later revealed that there was a girls' camp there in the 1930's and 40's.
6:13 am

{{crossy}}
6:13 am
Scrabbler

Hi Ruby
6:14 am
Scrabbler

You don't have lean-to's along the Bruce Trail?
6:14 am
rubyfoo

{{scrabbler}} we used to go to the Lake George area on vacatins when I was a kid.
6:15 am
Scrabbler

I have driven through Lake George Village but have not stopped there--too busy and commercial for me.
6:16 am
Scrabbler

Although the northern part of Lake George is quieter and I think about going there someday.
6:17 am
rubyfoo

My uncle owned a house on Trout Lake which was above Bolton Landing, not commercial and very pretty (but of course, that's 100 years ago --lol)
6:18 am
Scrabbler

I prefer the quiet, remote lakes that do not allow motor boats.
6:19 am
rubyfoo

I think Trout Lake was like that. We used to fish there and I learned to row. Also, caught frogs for my father's bait.
6:22 am
Scrabbler

I must get ready for work. Bye, kids.
6:23 am
rubyfoo

bye
6:32 am
crosshair

Nope, no lean-to's
6:35 am
crosshair

Though the Bruce is not a overnight camping sort of trail system. Some do through-hike but that is rare. Most just pick a chunk of its 800k for a day hike.
6:35 am
rubyfoo

I think my hiking days are long past
6:36 am
crosshair

it is small in comparison to the Bigger trail systems in the U.S
6:38 am
rubyfoo

I'm getting used to this big empty house. Thank God for the dogs!
6:40 am

I am glad you have a chance to take care of yourself for a change and that hubby is in good hands.
6:41 am

9:14 am
Trifioso

thanks for asking.
9:15 am
rururocks

I find it kind of weird that he's blaming you for his behavior though. Just my thoughts
9:16 am
rururocks

I'll shut up now
9:17 am
Trifioso

he isn't anymore ruru, trust me on that one. I cleared that one RIGHT the hell up!

9:24 am

9:24 am
Trifioso

to be honest, this time I don't feel I need to learn the lesson - this time I am teaching it.
9:25 am

I keep telling myself.. there has to be at least one normal woman out there somewhere :D

No, not cut off at all, just really difficult to pick up prescription.

well, don't worry about the nodules mimi, many are benign...I have a few too..

were things pressing on your nerves mimi and that's why you had trouble walking?
11:06 am

hi ruru :)
any luck with the great house hunt?
11:06 am

I know, Kate...I see that all the time in my work.

rururocks

no TK.. looking at a few more this week. I think I'm switching realtors though.
11:08 am
MimiCat

Yes, ((ruru)), that's what they think was happening. My spinal canal at L4 was extremely narrowed so they "opened it up" by attaching another fusion to the one I already had at L5 plus putting screws in the side walls. I can walk now but my legs want to give out quickly.
11:08 am
TraderKate

ah, sorry it seems to be taking so long... but at least you have the luxury of time to find your "forever" home.
11:09 am
rururocks

walking is good mimi.. that's a big start
11:10 am
rururocks

thanks TK.. I'm not in a hurry. I just want something that I can make perfect for me.
11:11 am
MimiCat

Well, it's necessary since I live alone. Getting up is a process, however, at least I can do it. Physical therapy today...big ouch.
11:12 am
rururocks

no pain.. no gain
11:12 am

...without having to do a complete re-model...
You'll find it ruru.... that aha "this is home" moment will come... hopefully with the new realtor.

I haven't felt like being anything except in bed . I resd that Ruby feels much the same. No energy. Being away has meant that I have lost the ability to babble. My score went right down and now I can't babble properly.

You should feel like a new woman afterwards, if you can just get into the operation.

Yes
7:00 pm

Does he still have the energy to wear you out, ru?
7:01 pm
Nef

(I bet ru takes him for a walk to wear off the dog's energy; & ru comes home more worn out that the dog!)
7:03 pm
MollyL

Perhaps it is best that we not speak of Ru's stamina (or lack thereof) now that he is single and in search of someone to get busy with.
7:04 pm

7:06 pm

Note: Ru and I are friends, I am just teasing him. Not being "critical".
7:07 pm

no problem, Molly; I just wanted to know who comes home more tired from a doggy walk; the dog or the owner
7:07 pm

Okay, back to RATED: G conversation.

I don't care; I'm just too tired to have a nimble mind tonight. DH has been in the hospital again for a week and is now back home; worry is exhausting

I'd patiently peeled the dry outer covers off the ground cherries this afternoon; I'm not sure how he could spill them; but he did and and then he squashed nearly half of them. It's so funny: I said "don't move; I'll get them!" and he backs up and sqish!

I don't know how to review it--say just shake it and everything you can think of will fall out. Just don't step on the ground cherries.

I'd like to come this fall but it won't happen. I'll get as far as Delavan and see Ellie and kids. They are not doing well. Too much trauma. But I can ahng around a few days and be grandma furniture. (Get Topsy Turvy on net flicks for a great show--abt Gilbert and Sullivan.
10:55 pm
Nef

I'm sorry to hear they aren't doing well. And it's important to be with them when things are not going well

Nef

I'm sorry, but I need to go to bed myself. I have 6 more word (all S'es) and I can't stay awake.

I'm doing poorly on this grid, so should go to bed and let the Lithuanians put me to sleep. This grid just froze up on me, too. I'll tell you abt the kids later--I haven't written abt it in Ill Times but if you look up my poem tomorrow, it's about guns--and the perfidous Isrealites. Goodnight, dear Nef. You too, Ruru. if there.
