Hi, just popping into the chog to say a belated Merry Christmas to everyone here. I love your clues, I chat on occasion...but I feel like I sort of know you because I see so many of these names every day. Grannyrose and Peri are the only folks I think I've ever chatted with in the past, and I also realize no one has posted on here for 20 minutes...
but, happy after Christmas dinner babbling to all!
3:55 am

missed you too my darling. i have been so busy but it has been worth it. i haven't stopped since last thursday. just one more day and then onto the bed i go for a whole day. *sigh*
5:06 am

*big hug* I know. we always have to pay a price. But as long as it has been worth it, it is ok, isn't it?

Morning all! I am feeling very lazy today
5:09 am

morning matty! *hug* Lazy is good.
5:09 am

am so glad you had such a good time with your family, rose
5:09 am
grannyrose

g'day matty. hope your holiday season has been wonderful for you.
5:10 am
mattygroves

Mostly, yes. We had Christmas late dinner with Sarah (my daughter) and Hannah (Jeff's daughter) after both girls had Christmas lunch with their other parent
5:10 am
grannyrose

don simply cannot understand how such a large group of siblings can have so much fun together.
5:11 am
mattygroves

I was VERY cross though - Sarah arrived back here in tears as her dad pretty much ignored her during Christmas lunch - gave her a voucher for Xmas for a shop she doesn't use (honestly, a gift voucher from your dad?!), thus making her feel that she doesn't ever want to spend Christmas in London (she'd rather spend it in Philly with my brother)
5:11 am
grannyrose

lovely matty. sprite have you and your beloved had some quality time together?
5:12 am
sprite

omg poor Sarah. What a rotten trick from dad.
5:12 am
grannyrose

matty lovely about your dinner with the girls. not good about the father.
5:12 am
sprite

yeah we did, rose, very quiet and relaxed.
5:12 am
mattygroves

But she loved the Pandora bracelet I got her (and other stuff too) and we had a really nice time once Sarah cheered up, and Sarah and Hannah got on really well together
5:13 am
sprite

it is something my father could have done. I know how it feels. Please tell her he is not worthy of her company, from me.
5:13 am
mattygroves

Thing is, I'd always given her dad credit for being a good father. I withdraw that line of credit now
5:14 am
sprite

I am willing to give him credit for being a real asshole though
5:14 am
grannyrose

it's so sad when parents get it sooo wrong with their kids. i try to buy gifts for don's kids, but we found out that his daughter just chucks everything out, sometimes with the tag still on it.
5:14 am
mattygroves

Hah! Yes. Apparently he only had eyes (and presents) for his new girlfriend
5:15 am
mattygroves

It broke my heart to see her so sad
5:15 am
mattygroves

Though I was hurt when she said this would be the last Christmas with us as she'll never spend it here again - I know she was hurting but I found that stabbed me
5:15 am
sprite

we have this deep longing inside ourselves to matter to our parents. Usually that is ok, because they do. But when they don't, it is a life-long hurt.
5:16 am
grannyrose

i know, matty, you just wish you could stop the hurt everytime don't you.
5:16 am
sprite

aw matty, sweetie *hugs* She wasn't thinking of you when she said it, but of her father. Apparently she feels so safe with you, she blabs out her pain without filteer.

Boxing Day...strange holiday, but welcomed (although I have to work today)
5:31 am
Lizlin

So, the important question, to Sukee and Matty - but anyone else interested. What did you think of the Doctor Who Special. I just watched it.
5:32 am
mattygroves

I must watch it again as I was distracted last night, but it wasn't as bad as I'd feared. Some funny moments and a couple of touching ones, but very lightweight, mostly
5:32 am
sukee

I did, it made me tear up. I loved seeing River.
5:33 am
Lizlin

The Christmas special is often lightweight. I liked the ties it made to other episodes. I like River too - but she could still reappear.
5:33 am
sukee

I would like to have seen more of them together, I hope this is not the last.
5:34 am
TheByzantine

Dr Who should change her name to Dr Why
5:35 am
Lizlin

Hi TheByz - long time no see, if you're who I think. Hope you are well.
5:35 am
Lizlin

I liked the rapport between Peter Capaldi and Alex Kingston.
5:36 am
sukee

Yes, me too. That is why I want to see them together again.
5:37 am
mattygroves

I think I shall rewatch later today when I can devote my full attention to it
5:37 am
sukee

So, no more until next August or so...sigh.
5:37 am
Lizlin

The episodes are often better with a 2nd watching.
5:38 am
Lizlin

We'll wait patiently.
5:38 am
lbdawger

gm, everyone! yes, Dr Who was fun to watch last night. you really didn't have to listen hard to understand the doctor. his mutterings were overshadowed by River.
5:38 am
mattygroves

We have Sherlock to look forward to on New Year's Day
5:38 am
Lizlin

Hi lbd
5:39 am
sukee

Yes, I want to see that matty.
5:39 am

I loved his joke about the inside of the Tardis being bigger.
5:39 am
sukee

Yes Liz, that was hilarious.
5:39 am
lbdawger

hi Liz, sukee and matty!
5:39 am

5:47 am

Nice, I hooked up my HDMI cable to my TV for a bit yesterday.
6:04 am
lbdawger

this one has an hdmi cable attached. not sure what it does tho. (i'm really in the dark ages with this new technology)
6:05 am
sukee

Well, if you have a smart TV you can hook it up and use the TV as a screen.
6:06 am
sukee

I find it good for watching my iTunes movies and TV networks online.
6:08 am
lbdawger

I think I must look into this. perhaps this will help us cut out cable.
6:08 am
sukee

That is what I was thinking.
6:10 am
sukee

Although, some online networks don't let you watch unless you log in with your cable network.
6:11 am

Okay, more than halfway, going to the list.
6:12 am

retirement is on the horizon, and needing to cut out some things like $100. cable bill would be good.

12:44 pm

that's not so bad if you have a dry suit, I guess. I haven't been able to stand the cold waters since my family left the East Coast, so I don't swim any more. When I was very little, though, I swam in the waters here all the time.
