*poof*

4:30 am

rubyfoo

((medusa))

4:30 am

zoozzoom

Not sure if it is you, Ruby. I often write things in the chat log and it does not turn up.

4:30 am

zoozzoom

Have a great day, Medusa!

4:31 am

rubyfoo

but you are a computer-adept, zzoozz, maybe it's a question of age lol

4:34 am

zoozzoom

Crossy is the computer wiz.

4:35 am

rubyfoo

I'm hopeless, can't even figure out how to take vidpups on my little cameraeos of the

4:36 am

rubyfoo

and a garble the chat by toucing something invisible

4:36 am

rubyfoo

annoying, but not grave

4:36 am

zoozzoom

Well if I do not know how to do something or if somethng is not working I always google it. And someone has sure to had the same problem and gives advice on how to go about it.

4:37 am

zoozzoom

Maybe you are touching the touchpad with part of your hand and it is moving the cursor as you go to type.

4:38 am

rubyfoo

you are more patient than I!!

4:39 am

zoozzoom

Well I would rather find out a solution than keep getting annoyed to be honest lol

4:40 am

rubyfoo

I guess I'd rather whine lol

4:42 am

zoozzoom

No I think you probably think you will not understand how to rectify the computer related problem as you think it will be to complicated to understand? maybe? Just guessing here lol

4:42 am

rubyfoo

lazy nel, just marking time 'til next dr's appt on Wed

4:43 am

rubyfoo

It is such a pleasure uust sitting here in front of the fire

4:43 am

rubyfoo

and the sun has come out, so the house will be warm in the afternoon

4:43 am

zoozzoom

I am glad you are keeping warm, Ruby. i love that nice cosy warm feeling you get in front of a real fire!

4:44 am

zoozzoom

Not know that feeling for many many years now lol

4:44 am

zoozzoom

Known*

4:45 am

rubyfoo

And it's so beautiful here as I can see the lake and all, just from this cosy spot. I shouldn't complain

4:45 am

zoozzoom

Sounds devine, Ruby! Just relax and enjoy!

4:46 am

rubyfoo

Now, if I just get some good news.....

4:47 am

zoozzoom

I am sure it will come, Ruby.

4:48 am

rubyfoo

fingers crossed, touching wood and praying....

4:50 am

zoozzoom

wosh- a smaller woosh sound.

4:50 am

rubyfoo

I'm actually terrified

4:51 am

zoozzoom

Of course you are, Ruby. But just do your best to stay positive as positive thoughts are way better than negative thoughts.

4:52 am

rubyfoo

I know, but it's hard to stay positive. You help me a lot, you know

4:54 am

zoozzoom

That is because we babblers care, Ruby, and in some ways can relate to how you feel.

4:55 am

rubyfoo

True and this feels like a totally safe place

4:57 am

rubyfoo

And each of us has had his share of problems

4:57 am

zoozzoom

It is a great place I feel. there normally is always someone here. Okay a lot of time people are sitting in the background getting on with the game.But I have noticed on many occassions when someone types in the chat something bad that has happened to either them or another person babblers know many people will chip iinto the chat and give some kind of comfort and support.

4:57 am

zoozzoom

It is a great place that is for sure.

5:03 am

rubyfoo

Time for a hot bath. Thank you for your kind ear, ((zzoozz))

5:03 am

zoozzoom

http://tinyurl.com/ogk2yx6

5:03 am

zoozzoom

For you, Ruby.

5:03 am

rubyfoo

stoking the fire so it will still be alight when I descend!

5:04 am

zoozzoom

More than welcome, Ruby. Tkae care.

5:04 am

zoozzoom

Take*

5:05 am

sprite

good morning all

5:05 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Sprite :-)

5:05 am

rubyfoo

will check that out right after

5:05 am

zoozzoom

hope you are well?

5:06 am

sprite

hi zooz :) *hugs* How are you today, dear man? And how are the parents?

5:06 am

rubyfoo

hi and bye, sprite, zooz has been my therapist for the past hours

5:07 am

sprite

*hugs ruby* Yay for zooz :)

5:07 am

zoozzoom

All well here thanks, Sprite. Mother might have to have her gallbladder removed if she continues to get pain she is getting so of course she is not a happy bunny.

5:07 am

sprite

I am fine. Just tired, is all. I slept an obscene amount of hours this night.

5:08 am

sprite

ouch, that is a nasty pain. And not a fun operation.

5:08 am

zoozzoom

Well you must of needed it otherwise you would not of slept that long lol

5:08 am

MollyL

Zoom is a good soul and he is very kind to others.

5:09 am

sprite

I couldn't agree more, Molly

5:09 am

zoozzoom

((Molly))

5:09 am

sprite

yeah I needed it, lol. Am not ashamed.

5:10 am

zoozzoom

Rose sends her love to you and lots of hugs too! (((((()))))) these are from Rose lol

5:10 am

MollyL

Next time Ruby is around, suggest that she look up the users guide for her camera on line. Most all of them are available on line and it will show her how to use the video option. However the tricky part is getting them from camera to computer.

5:10 am

sprite

aw thanks zooz! Am so sorry to have missed her again.

5:12 am

MollyL

Those kind of things are so much easier to show someone than they are to explain "how to" in a chat forum.

5:12 am

zoozzoom

I will, Molly, very good idea!

5:13 am

zoozzoom

I did tell her that you both missed each other by a whisker yesterday and that you had sent her an email (hope you did not mind) but I am not sure she got the message as she said goodnight a while after.

5:14 am

sprite

our rose might have been distracted by a squirrel, grin. Thanks for telling her.

5:15 am

zoozzoom

haha I did mention that at the time!

5:16 am

sprite

oh that reminds me, I need to do some needlepoint... I have something squirrelly for her.

5:16 am

sprite

If I get a move on, I might get it to her before Xmas still.

5:16 am

zoozzoom

I think, Rose, will love that!

5:17 am

sprite

yeah I think so too. At the very least it will be good for a laugh.

5:18 am

zoozzoom

It will be a reminder for her when she looks at it that you are on the other side of the screen LOL

5:18 am

sprite

lolollll

5:18 am

zoozzoom

Sorry, Sprite but I am leaving now unless there is anything I can help you with before I go?

5:19 am

sprite

I am good, thanks zooz. No need for sorry! Have a lovely Sunday there. *hugs*

5:19 am

zoozzoom

You too Hugs back :-)

5:27 am

Sam

Hi all. Had to jump out of lurk mode when Zoom mentioned gall bladder. There is a cheap and natural cure for gallstones, called chanca piedra, readily available online. Two capsules will dissolve stuck gallstones in 20 minutes. This has been keeping me going for more than 10 years.

5:28 am

sprite

wow thanks Sam. Shall I send your post to zooz by email?

5:29 am

Sam

Please do. I hate to see anyone go under the knife unnecessarily.

5:30 am

Sam

Chanca piedra also works for kidney/bladder stones, BTW.

5:31 am

sprite

great to know. I have passed on your message to him.

5:35 am

sukee

Good morning all.

5:35 am

sprite

hiya sukee :) How are you today?

5:37 am

sukee

Doing great. How about you?

5:37 am

sprite

am fine. Slept from 8 pm till noon the next day. Feeling lots better now, lol.

5:38 am

sukee

Sleep is good.

5:38 am

MollyL

I am 100% FOR herbal remedies. However, you should always consult your doctor before taking them to make sure they do not negatively interact with any medications you take or conditions you may have. Better safe than sorry.

5:39 am

sukee

Had a friend visit yesterday, had Chinese food and wine.

5:39 am

sprite

I used to dislike sleeping, and went with as few hours as possible. I have definitely changed my tune, lol.

5:39 am

sukee

I agree Molly, I also ask my pharmacist when I have questions.

5:40 am

sukee

No matter how hard I try, I wake up around 5:30 each day.

5:41 am

mattygroves

I just had a look on WebMD - I'm glad it's been working for you Sam, though the evidence is inconclusive at best as to its efficacy - http://goo.gl/yAUGWk

5:41 am

Sam

Bear in mind, though, that very few physicians know diddly about herbs and will always err on the side of pharma drugs.

5:41 am

sprite

yes that is true, Molly. I remember using a st john's wort remedy. When the doctor gave me antidepressants later, I had to stop the hypericum right away.

5:42 am

Sam

There is never good evidence of the efficacy of herbal remedies, because no one will invest the money to study something that can't be patented.

5:42 am

sprite

I think it is important to check if there can be any negative combinations with the current meds. If not, it is worth a try.

5:44 am

Sam

I passed chanca piedra on to two other people with severe kidney stones, and they were cured immediately.
Whenever I have the first pangs of a gallstone attack, I swallow two caps and it is gone. This is all i can tell you.

5:45 am

sprite

if there is even a small chance that it will render an operation unnecessary, I think it is very much worth trying.

5:45 am

MollyL

I agree Sam, physicians tend to "poo poo" herbal treatment. As long as there is no evidence it will complicate any condition you have or medication you already take, I say go for it. That kind of medical treatment has been around and working for centuries.

5:46 am

sprite

fireflies. *hugs* and have a grand day, all of you.

5:46 am

6:12 am

good morning, everyone!

6:21 am

MimiCat

Sam, I told a friend about chanca piedra who constantly had kidney stones and, she, too, never got one while she was taking it. She ran out and delayed getting more and, boom, another kidney stone.

6:22 am

MimiCat

This herb has been in use in the Amazon for a very long time.

Hi Car, I have been lurking.

Hello! How was your day yesterday?

8:00 am

Scrabbler

We had a nice hike then went to an adoption celebration for a patient of mine. He is 2.5 years old and so lucky as are his parents.

8:01 am

car.eeyore

Oh wonderful! It sounded like you had a lovely day planned!

8:02 am

Scrabbler

We hiked at a 700 acre farm that a wealthy family donated to the state 10 years ago. It is a popular place for walking, hiking, and there is a dog park.

8:02 am

car.eeyore

wow!

8:04 am

Scrabbler

It is so serene--so many different areas to see--wooded areas, some paved roads, some dirt roads, some ponds, and horses are allowed so we saw people riding horses.

8:04 am

car.eeyore

Lovely!

8:04 am

MollyL

Okay, why do words like doeth and doest exist in the freaking weird Enable Word List but not goeth? Did those guys only read PARTS of The Bible?

Does the traffic bother you?

9:44 am

MollyL

No, but then I don't drive much. The traffic is pretty bad around here and most people have an over an hour commute to work. I refuse to drive that far to get to a job. It eats up a lot of your salary and most of your sanity.

9:45 am

Not to mention your life.

It's gotten bad around here also ... can take me an hour to get home - 21 miles :-(

Sometimes, when life has been tough, you need to take a year off from the holiday stuff. That is perfectly acceptable.

some churches hold services specifically for sad people, "blue christmas"

I don't know if I could do that during a tough year. It would feel too much like I Love Lucy and The Friends Of The Friendless.

It's just me. The whole "misery loves company" thing has never worked for me. I am better off trying to fake it around festive people, even if I don't feel festive.

Awww, so sorry Soodle.

2:05 pm

hego

so 6,30 anyone?

2:06 pm

Soodle

It's bonkers. I know November is a 30 day month & it will pass, but every year it's the same. I psych myself up to get through it, but every year - wham. :-(

2:07 pm

hego

Seasonal affective disorder. Lots of people have this problem.

2:08 pm

Soodle

Thank you, Welki

2:11 pm

Soodle

So, Hego - your icon is a 'weemee'? I've seen MollyL & Ruru discussing weemees & I hadn't a clue what they are. At least now I know :-)

2:12 pm

hego

for some reason the little cutsy things offend the heck out of them.

2:13 pm

welki

hang on, uploading mine

2:13 pm

Soodle

I am actually laughing out loud!!!

2:14 pm

hego

periwinkle

good clue, ty welki

2:31 pm

2:31 pm

hego

or what Welki said.

2:31 pm

periwinkle

)

2:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

so there is an option for ice fishing background in weemee? suprprising

2:35 pm

welki

there are a couple of winter backgrounds and the fishing hole/rod were free add-ons, i think

2:36 pm

welki

i used to have a background with snowmobiles, but i can't find it - too bad i don't have the wherewithal to superimpose the weemee onto my (real) snowmobile pic

2:37 pm

Soodle

Well, thank you for letting me know what weemees are. Could anybody now tell me why they are found offensive?

2:38 pm

hego

No idea

2:38 pm

hego

They think they're creepy

2:40 pm

hego

And done! Have a great day All.

2:40 pm

welki

bye, hego

2:40 pm

hego

bye Welki. Poof!

2:40 pm

Soodle

Ok. I certainly wouldn't like to wake up in the middle of the night & have a life-size Weemee looming over me, but apart from that, they seem innocent enough.

2:41 pm

Soodle

Well done, Hego :-)

2:45 pm

ch1212

Hego, I went to the weemee site but didn't see any options for holiday sweathers (I like yours!)

2:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

need weemee help

2:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes, what i saw is very limited.

2:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am trying to get the glasses to be clear, not tinted'

2:47 pm

ch1212

I thought those were sunglasses, so not sure if you can change them, TO.

2:48 pm

72 Temple Owl

well what about real glasses?

2:49 pm

ch1212

I didn't see options for those. Strange. But I'm new to the weemee thing, so I'm probably not looking in the right spot. Hego? You seem to be our resident expert. ?

2:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

she's gone.

2:50 pm

ch1212

As will I be too, as soon as I can figure out that wh6/7 combo. Any clues?

2:51 pm

welki

no, not gone - trying to figure out something. you'll never get it 100% the way you think it should be - for me, i left off the glasses for the same reason

2:52 pm

welki

(funny, i don't recall you wearing glasses, owl - did you have them when we met?)

2:53 pm

ch1212

She took them off so you'd recognize her from her weemee. lol!!

2:55 pm

Soodle

Lol Ch!

2:58 pm

ch1212

Okay, on that silly note, I'll go take my walk and be back later. :)

2:59 pm

welki

3:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:20 pm

welki

3:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:23 pm

welki

3:23 pm

welki

then take 'em off :)

3:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:26 pm

Soodle

BFB - (Babbling from Bed). Why so disparaging about little cartoon characters, Ru? Am I missing something?

4:34 pm

rururocks

They're creepy to me .. and childish. that's all. I really don't care

4:34 pm

rururocks

I'll never mention it again..

4:34 pm

dcseain

i always found those figurines to be the intersection of creepy and uncanny valley.

4:36 pm

rururocks

the precious moments things are creepy too

4:37 pm

dcseain

agreed

4:37 pm

Soodle

I'm genuinely puzzled. Are we talking about little pictures, or actual doll-like things. Please excuse my ignorance...

4:38 pm

dcseain

figurines -- mostly cast.

4:38 pm

dcseain

of the saccharine cute variety.

4:38 pm

rururocks

You asked me about the weemees soodle and I answered your question.

4:39 pm

Soodle

There Are no weemees here. Should I buy a franchise?

4:40 pm

MollyL

Weemee icons look like something 12-year-old girls would post. And yes, they are very creepy. Big eyes, cartoon bodies. Give me the eebie-geebies.

4:41 pm

MollyL

And why is it "disparaging" to not like something?

5:20 pm

Dianne

Can I get a clue for the ha%? I have the plural of the ha4/8.

5:20 pm

Dianne

ha5

5:21 pm

Lizlin

Hi Dianne - ha 5 - ha + most of scaly swimmer

5:22 pm

Dianne

Thanks liz. Happy last night of Hanukkah'

5:22 pm

Lizlin

To you too - or last day for me - 9.22 am here.

5:23 pm

Dianne

Did you make donuts?

5:24 pm

Lizlin

No - made latkes. Didn't even have a doughnut last night at our Chanukah in the Park celebrations! Too full!

5:24 pm

Lizlin

Back in a minute - need to hang sheets out.

5:24 pm

Dianne

See you tomorrow.

5:29 pm

Lizlin

Have a good evening

5:32 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks - enjoy your days, lurkers :)

5:32 pm

dcseain

well done, Liz! have a good one.

5:32 pm

Lizlin

Thanks, dc - you too.

5:59 pm

dan2bit

help with the so6 or the sh7?

6:02 pm

rururocks

sh 7 not overly friendly

6:03 pm

rururocks

or outgoing

6:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

actually, the part of speech is the condition of. and sh7 has nothing to do with friendliness.

6:09 pm

rururocks

got it Dan?

6:10 pm

rururocks

so 6 is plural of Terrel the infamous football player S +

6:11 pm

MollyL

Oh boy, I'm confused. Is there more than one sh7? I thought that was the opposite of friendliness.

6:13 pm

ChrissieDee

I used to be painfully shy but I wasn't unfriendly.

6:14 pm

72 Temple Owl

no, it is not.

6:14 pm

ChrissieDee

The clue worked for me though, thanks ru

6:14 pm

rururocks

people take sh7 as being unfriendly don't they? I kind of always think of it that way. TO might be right though

6:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

nah.

6:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

however, as a clue, it works because many people would say that it is.

6:17 pm

rururocks

I think not outgoing is a better clue.. I guess.

6:17 pm

rururocks

I'm trying to decide what I want for dinner

6:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

works fine.

6:18 pm

rururocks

I am painfully shy still Chrissie :D

6:18 pm

ChrissieDee

:D

6:19 pm

dcseain

sh7 is being reserved during the process of getting to know people, in part due to wanting to understand people and be able to trust them before deeply engaging them.

6:20 pm

dcseain

for example, i was quieter than ruru expected when we met. :)

6:21 pm

dcseain

and thank you, i got the word from reading the chog. :)

6:21 pm

rururocks

you were.. that's true..

6:21 pm

dcseain

and i'm shocked i got ruru's football reference for the so6

6:21 pm

rururocks

I expected you to be more outgoing..

6:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

the anonymity of the internet makes on line interaction decidedly different.

6:22 pm

dcseain

agreed, TO

6:22 pm

ChrissieDee

I would just blush and lose the power of coherent speech in any social situation :(

6:22 pm

rururocks

:D

6:22 pm

rururocks

I'm always at a loss for words :D

6:22 pm

dcseain

i was far from my most gregarious when we met.

6:23 pm

rururocks

yeah.. and I bought breakfast :D

6:24 pm

72 Temple Owl

how nice

6:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

did you have eg4/8? i just found them.

6:27 pm

rururocks

actually I knew DC was smart and well-spoken, but in person he was even more so.

6:33 pm

dcseain

you did, and it was lovely, and most appreciated, as was the lift tot he ballpark :)

6:38 pm

rururocks

I'd think you'd be not so gregarious if you had picked up the check :D (just kidding)

6:38 pm

rururocks

I think you were road weary though by the time I saw you

6:39 pm

rururocks

<---pulling DC's chain :D

6:42 pm

rururocks

did I kill the chat?

6:44 pm

dcseain

SF was our third city in 10 days. Seattle, Portland, Seattle, SF, back to DC. With a stop in Astoria, Or, and in Bainbridge, WA.

6:45 pm

dcseain

That was a fun trip. And ballgames in Seattle an SF three days apart.

6:47 pm

rururocks

I love Seattle..great city

6:50 pm

rururocks

o-ohh I'd BetteR go shopping for Dinner

7:00 pm

dcseain

Seattle underwhelmed me. I do think should give it another go. I mean, i had fun there, but unlike some other places i've been, it didn't leave me excited about it,nor wanting to return.

7:20 pm

dan2bit

got the sh7 thanks, sorry for the lag from putting miss2bit to sleep

7:21 pm

dan2bit
