zoozzoom

((Ruby)) How are you?
3:45 am
rubyfoo

Why don't they give us big grids on the weekends?
3:45 am
zoozzoom

I know right!
3:46 am
rubyfoo

At the moments, I have an appraiser here to set a value on the antiquees, simply to satsify the US lawyer.
3:46 am
zoozzoom

Did you enjoy Le tour de France?
3:46 am
rubyfoo

Wht a waste of time and money!!!
3:47 am
zoozzoom

Would not like someone round my place valuing my things. Hope they are not there long, Ruby.
3:47 am
rubyfoo

The Tour was less interesting because my "horse" in the race was Valverde, who didn't have a chance. But the scenery was magnifique!!
3:48 am
rubyfoo

My dog is having a lot of trouble with this, protcting me. He takes his job VERY sriously
3:48 am
zoozzoom

Good that might make them hurry up a bit then lol
3:49 am
rubyfoo

How are you, zooz, enjoying this wonderful weathr?
3:50 am
zoozzoom

I am well thank you, Ruby. The weather here is not what it was a week ago but still pleasant at the moment. Would like it atad warmer but still around 19-21c
3:51 am
zoozzoom

Now if it was 27-35c I would be happy :-)
3:53 am
rubyfoo

Here, it's perfect. A little bit hotin the afternoons, but coolenough at night. I keep the house wide open.
3:55 am
zoozzoom

Is that safe to do that where you are. Could not do that here.
3:55 am
rubyfoo

Believe it or not, the garden could use some rain. But I have all the ripe figs I can eat and/or give away.
3:55 am
rubyfoo

I think my largee dogs make me less of a target.
3:56 am
zoozzoom

Well at least you will be going regular then LOL with all those figs.
3:56 am
rubyfoo

They sleep most of the day but appear to be en garde all night. I'm not worriednabout that, just about everything else LOL
3:57 am
rubyfoo

The figs don't do that, malheureusement; I think I probably take too much morphine
3:57 am
rubyfoo

nose
3:58 am
zoozzoom

wow that is a long word just to say sadly LOL
3:58 am
rubyfoo

sorry, too engrossed
3:58 am
rubyfoo

hahah
3:58 am
rubyfoo

I've begun thinkingin French and have to translate on the rare occasions when I'm with an anglophone
3:59 am
zoozzoom

Well you have live in France a long time, Ruby, so I am not surprised.
4:06 am
zoozzoom

I was with my father the other day in a supermarket and a tin of peas had no price on them so i asked a shop assistant who was near by how much they were. He had such a strong scottish accent that I just could not understand what he was saying. I kept say pardon and he was getting annoyed with me. i was rather embarrassed by it all in the end. I mean Scotland is part of the UK and I felt bad that I could not understand him.
4:07 am
zoozzoom

We got there in the end though :-)
4:08 am
rubyfoo

Iknow exactly what you mean. When I was still in the US, I had clients in the South with whomI could have used an interpreter!
4:10 am
rubyfoo

It varies here. Mostpeople understand me, but now and then, somebody with a prejudice against Americans, will blatantly refuse to. Fortunatytely, that happenns rarely and since virtually no one speaks English here ( except skiers and friends fromthe UK and Ireland), the French appreciate my efforts, accented as they are
4:10 am
zoozzoom

I always have had a huge respect for people who can speak more than their native tongue. I have given french,dutch and german a go but I am no good at it.
4:11 am
zoozzoom

I bet your french is better than you think it is, Ruby!
4:12 am
rubyfoo

I had a lot of French in school, but never really spoke it untilI startted coming to France in my 20''s, then it became a necessity because I was with my baby son.
4:13 am
zoozzoom

Ys i think the best way to learn a language is to live in that country. It kind of forces you to learn it rather quicker than you would in a class in your own country.
4:13 am
zoozzoom

So sorry for the typos.
4:13 am
rubyfoo

I don't translate when I speak, but I think I probably have a bad accent because my first Fr teacher, when I was 11, was fromthe Bronx. My English is without accent, but that took a year of corrective speech toget the New York out of itt.
4:15 am
rubyfoo

Almost everyone understands me herte and they are very sweet about it.
4:15 am
rubyfoo

(sorry for the typos)
4:16 am
zoozzoom

Well like you said, Ruby, they appreciate that you try and plus you have chosen to live there too!
4:16 am
zoozzoom

Have don't worry about your typos, Ruby.
4:16 am
rubyfoo

And none of my French friends speaks English.
4:17 am
zoozzoom

Sorry to leave you, Ruby. But I need t go and sort parents meal out for lunch time. It was very nice to see you though ((Ruby))
4:18 am
zoozzoom

That must be hard at times, Ruby. But you seem to get on well despite no one there speaks your native tongue.
4:18 am
zoozzoom

Bye for now.
4:25 am
rubyfoo

It was a pleasure, ((zzoozz))!!
5:08 am

but it seems god had a plan for you.
8:31 am

The boys are very happy here and get love, discipline, and a daily routine. Their day care center is excellent and Jax's speech has improved dramatically in the last 2 weeks while being with peers.
8:31 am
72 Temple Owl

that is wonderful news
8:31 am

Excellent!
8:32 am

Now, will their parents grow up, become mature and responsible as parents??
8:32 am
72 Temple Owl

and of course, they will grow and change and everything will evolve
8:32 am
72 Temple Owl

let's hope so.
8:33 am

I am calm and consistent with discipline whereas the parents are impatient yellers.

Hmm. Not surprising. Lots of extra noise in the house. Not something the buns are used to.

No. I had an extra room next to mine and put the crib and twin bed in there.

How are you and Dylan? Did you get a 2nd dog?
9:35 am

we're fine.. Dylan has been doing much better. No second dog yet.. still construction going on over here.. and yard landscaping to be done
9:35 am
rururocks

we have setbacks still.. but they're minor compared to what I was dealing with before.
9:37 am
Scrabbler

Bad allergy issues, just like we see in kids.
9:38 am
rururocks

yes.. he is on allergy shots now.. we're hoping in six months they will start to knock that back
9:39 am
Scrabbler

We see some kids with just horrendous eczema and it is as though they are allergic to everything in the environment and every food.
9:41 am
rururocks

we discovered what Dylan was allergic to.. mostly grasses and molds.. and a few other weird stuff.
9:42 am
rururocks

so from reading your posts.. the boys have the bedroom next to yours?
9:45 am
rururocks

have the parents seen them? Or are they not allowed to right now? I'm just curious
9:45 am
Scrabbler

Yes, perpendicular to mine, at end of the hallway.
9:45 am
rururocks

good.. you can hear what they're up to :D
9:46 am
Scrabbler

Their mother has seen them twice weekly, under my supervision,but visits with their father,my nephew, have not yet been arranged. Those visits will be at a social services agency and also supervised but not by me due to the order of protection.
9:47 am
rururocks

your nephew sounds like a winner... jeezus
9:49 am
Scrabbler

I am very disappointed in who he is at this time, at age 28. But I remind myself that we are all works in progress and he has the choice to mature and to become respectful and responsible. He does not have to be his father but so far he is even worse.
9:49 am
rururocks

yep.. coming from an abusive home.. I completely understand that
9:50 am
rururocks

sometimes those "lessons" from the father go very deep. I am sure that's why I never had kids to repeat the process
9:52 am
Scrabbler

Me too. But my middle and youngest nephews are so different. They have all suffered and experienced abuse, but have responded to it in different ways.
9:53 am
rururocks

Neglect and apathy towards the kids are deep scars. This I know
9:54 am
Scrabbler

Me too. We have multigenerational issues here. Some of us are resilient, others are not.

I think it is very important to let go of the emotional baggage of your past so you can enjoy the gift of your present life. So many people drag the baggage of their past around with them far too long.
11:08 am
doseffing

... too true
11:12 am
rururocks

that's true molly.. but sometimes the past has a weird way of popping up at inopportune times
11:14 am
kje

I think it depends on the past - some things have done damage at a level that is much harder "to let go of" at both a conscious and definitely the unconscious state. That is easier said than done for many
11:14 am
MollyL

I believe that is the process of what Carline Myss calls "living in your wounds" instead of living in a healing place.
11:15 am
rururocks

that's kind of true for me KJE.. it's the unconscious stuff that gets to me
11:16 am
kje

you can believe that, but platitudes are not backed uop by teh research with thiese groups that show that what happens at young ages can impact future lives in ways we can't even completely measure
11:16 am
MollyL

I disagree. There are people who have lived horrible pasts (incest, Auschwitz survivors, etc) who have decided to let go of that horror and live in the present moment. And they are not "platitudes" thanks. I have done plenty of research on this subject myself.
11:17 am
kje

and that is wonderful for them, but that is not the case for everyone... and that does not mean others are somehow hanging onto baggage or not choosing hard enough to let go
11:19 am
rururocks

there are people who do hang on to baggage.. like my brother.. they never dig themselves out. I chose not to live damaged.. and tried to move on.. but once in a while.. weird stuff comes up..it's like a bad dream or something
11:20 am
doseffing

... 9 left but they won't come without a list so time for lunch and the ball game and if it doesn't rain the lawnmower ... ... ... luck to all
11:20 am

And I never said that "others are somehow hanging onto baggage or not choosing hard enough to let go." I suggested that letting go was a more healthy option than living your entire life as a VICTIM.

11:22 am

while.. some people like to sit on the pity pot a lot .. and get nowhere
11:23 am
MollyL

Everyone has a choice. They can choose to continue living in wounds of the past, or choose to heal and move forward. I think many people have found a comfort zone in being a victim. Just my opinion. No one is required to agree with it or think it is right.
11:23 am

Wow, I stopped by looking for clues in the chog and instead had very interesting rrading!

I disagree with the language, Ru... it is a blame the victim language that says only someone with great strength, etc... I understand that is the language that has been used for years, but it is also language that mental health professionals have bene trying hard to change - but it is so ingrained. So one soldier comes home with PTSD and recovers to a normal life, and another does not fair so well and is still fighting demons homeless on the street years later.... it isn't that easy
11:24 am
rubyfoo

I feel like a nosy person, but getting glimpes of others' lives and attitudes is fascinating.
11:26 am
rururocks

That I don't know much about the PTSD.. that's for sure.. I was just relating to my situation growing up
11:26 am
rubyfoo

I had wonderful parents and a lovely, hard-working childhood, but still had issues to resolves with a therapist. Fortunately, all the good stuff prepared me for the difficult parts now.
11:27 am
MollyL

No one, especially not mental health professionals is trying to "blame the victim". The discussion in the mental health field has been about whether or not someone continues to identify as a victim.

Molly, sometimes I wonder if you really don't understand certain things you make statements about, or if you are just pot-stirring for fun. With the first one I think, 'okay, she just hasn't informed herself, and given the tone of her statement, I am not sure she wants to' .... with the second one I think, 'okay...I'm not going to play.' In either case, as a Babbler who celebrates the daily kindness and support of our oneline community, sometimes, like today, it's hard for me not to respond.
12:47 pm

I sincerely hope I'm not being too harsh. I do enjoy your company here, but feel the need to speak up.
12:48 pm

Ch, I understand a lot of things. And I am very informed about the politics of my country. I state an opinion here when there is an actual adult conversation (not weather or kitties). Interesting how you say you "celebrate daily kindness" after your last post.

Listen you guys. This whole subject is very complicated. The problem here in America is that we are very frustrated with our politicians. They just don't feel they ever get anything done. Republicans or Democrats. I am sorry, Molly, though I am not afraid of Trump being President and I don't think he will be a disaster for many reasons I also don't think that you can say that Obama has not gotten anything done. He has done allot. And I do agree with you it is not all the Republicans fault. It takes two to tango.

But you can just say the Molly is uninformed. It is not a fair statement. There is way too many connections in the world and the world arena is way too complicated. None of us are completely informed. But unfortunately, we can't vote on what our politicians will do for Canada. That is not our job. We need to focus on what they will get done for America and hope for the best on the international arena.

I'd even prefer ' kitties' to politics

Marc Freeman

That should have been 'can't say' sorry again
1:06 pm
IndiaJan

ahh...but to deny that the US has no effect on Canada is to be grossly uninformed...we are each others largest trading partners, we share the largest unprotected border in the world...

I don't think Molly is really denying that. But unfortunately, it is just not that important to us. But really I don't think you should be worried about Trump.

Hilarious. I am "grossly uninformed" about the political climate of my country, but Canadians are "in the know".
I get great laughs from this chat.
1:46 pm
Nef

Molly, there are a lot of Canadians who are in the know about our politics; and our citizens are very divided & may just see the one side of US politics that they favor.
1:48 pm
Nef

There is no better way to explain the contrast in how the Rep & Dem conventions presented such completely opposite views of our country; especially looking at employment & crime rates
1:51 pm
MollyL

Thank you Marc for your comments. It never ceases to amaze me that people in other countries consider themselves experts on the American political scenario.
1:58 pm
IndiaJan

yes Molly, people outside your Country take an active interest..I have studied US politics extensively as it relates to Canada..so yes...I am an expert..but thanks for the insult
2:08 pm
MollyL

No insult intended. I'm just wondering how US politics relates to Canada. Other than NAFTA, which is largely ignored, and border crossing issues. I just don't see how US politics affects Canadians.
2:08 pm
hego

Well, I see not much has changed since my computer 's been down.
2:08 pm
MollyL

But then, as previously state, I am "grossly misinformed"
2:13 pm
Nef

NAFTA, Keystone Pipeline, NATO, TPP, the Middle East, The United Nations; all of these are things that affect Canadians.
2:14 pm

Hi Nef

Hi hero; how are you today?

Doing better with the lower temperatures; hot & muggy isn't our type of weather these days.

Love the way auto correct has made me a hero.
2:21 pm
Nef

Boy! I keep forgetting to pl & pt words today!

Oops! Sorry about the hero;but maybe that's what you are in real life! ;-)
2:22 pm
MollyL

Yes Nef. All of those things affect Canadian citizens. And yet the Canadian government does nothing about them. No wonder Canadian citizens are so interested in American politics.
2:22 pm
hego

lol, ty!!
2:23 pm
hego

Nef, all nurses are heros in a small quiet way.
2:26 pm
Nef

The Canadian government does more than you think, Molly. But because we, in the US, are so well-covered by our media 24/7, we kind of develop a narcissistic view of the world & really believe that we *are* the center of the world.
2:26 pm
IndiaJan

oh my ...i was wrong about you being grossly uninfomed..i am changing my opinion to ignorant of anything being your border...and actually im not sure you are even aware of what is transpiring within your borders.
2:28 pm
hego

Nef, you are right, we are egocentric.
2:28 pm
MollyL

Hi India Jan...*Strikes up a chorus of OH CANADA
2:29 pm
Nef

I used to live just south the Canadian border & listened to CBC from Winnipeg & Calgary (they often came in clearer than anything for the big cities here in the US) & I was amazed by their news in comparison our "local" stations back then.
2:29 pm
hego

I have always been impressed in my travels by how well informed people in other countries are. If you want a perfect example watch BBC news sometime.
2:29 pm
MollyL

I find it very sad that American citizens find their country egocentric. But then I find the voting habits of American citizens pretty sad as well. No wonder other countries think we are fools.
2:30 pm
Nef

egocentric was the word I was looking for; that fits better than narcissistinc
2:32 pm
Nef

I watch & listen BBC news a lot; I prefer BBC & MPR for radio stations both in the car & our home than other "talk radio"
2:32 pm

Not a celebrity antic in sight.

And, DH just spilled Orange flavored water all over the grey carpeting here in the family room. I have to do some stains removal NOW! (he fell asleep holding his extra large drink mug)
2:38 pm

Nef- thats why I love my wooden flooring & leather furniture! A damp cloth/mop & hey presto - crisis averted. I just wish I had them when the kiddies were small. Manys a spill I scrubbed in my day :-)
2:40 pm
MollyL

How is it "mean-spirited" (I love that, used all over the internet when people are pissed off) to state my opinion about something? Like my opinion or don't like it, but get a grip and quit acting like I'm attacking you when I'm not.
2:45 pm
Soodle

Note to self:- Don't just read the last post before posting a banality. Beware of ongoing hostilities....
2:47 pm
IndiaJan

passive agressive posts intended to bait me. this started when I pointed out that you seem uninformed about the world outside your borders...this is a fact. there is no shame in that. The shame is thinkng you know all..when you dont..and to insult those who may be more informed. if you i called you mean spirited because i am loathe to use the word I actually thought...
2:48 pm
IndiaJan

Soodle - i love my wood floors as well..no more carpet..ever
2:51 pm
MollyL

I love the over use of passive-aggressive too.
India, if you want to engage in an adult conversation about politics, grow up. Try stating your opinion without slamming someone who doesn't agree with you.
2:52 pm
IndiaJan

lol
2:52 pm
IndiaJan

how about twat? i bet you find that over used as well
2:53 pm
Nef

Hi again. I thank Goodness for Resolve carpet cleaner! It has to absorb the spill (for a while now that I've brushed it in) then I can vacuum.
Soodle, all of the rest of the house has oak floors which we've just had refinished; but the family room has carpeting because kids sit on the floor & also there is ugly plywood as a base floor here (1970's addition)
2:57 pm
Soodle

Yay for Resolve Carpet cleaner!! Interestingly, there's a product on the market in this part of the world called 'resolve', but it's marketed ad
2:57 pm
MollyL

No, twat is only over used by you and your friend Carlee.

3:11 pm

I was always taught by parents to never discuss religion or politics with people you don't know as it causes arguments...
3:12 pm
lilliann

My bairn had a couple but she didn't wear them out in public, thank god but she wore them as dressing gowns basically
3:13 pm

Very true, lilli. I was never *taught* that; but learned along the way that some topics are dynamite (especially online!)

Mom of Soodle, aged 84, inveterate smoker for the last 70 years underwent hip replacement surgery yesterday. Defied all odds by actually surviving the operation, but not in good place now..
3:13 pm

Nef, just for the record, I am not an idiot and I understand how I "sound".
3:14 pm
IndiaJan

it wasnt the politics that set me off tho.. :)
3:14 pm

im sorry soodle..my mom had hip replacement at 85...was very rough on her too
3:16 pm
lilliann

Aw, Soodle, i hope all goes with your mam.Hugs to you.My nan had a hip replacement last year after a fall and she's in her late 90's.She has alzheimers now bless her but still going strong even though we've been told numerous times she's on her way out!
3:17 pm
Nef

Molly, I was NOT calling you an idiot; and I meant that you may not have intended it; but you did come across as being rather rude. (saying things that may be hurtful to someone who isn't in the US like Canadian government doesn't do anything)
3:17 pm
Soodle

Actually, Molly, I'm not sure that you really DO know how you sound...
3:18 pm
lilliann

I quite like hearing about cats and dogs. My cat is part of my family!!

You can come across as quite condescending Molly.

3:19 pm
MollyL

Oh, I was rude. I did not call India "mean spirited". I did not call her "grossly misinformed". I just said what I had to say. And YES Soodle, I am very well aware of how I sound. It's just not acceptable here because people don't like a controversial chat.

My lili, a few moments ago brought indoors a harvest mouse . She has been told so many times not to do this and does she listen no ! Managed to grab the poor little thing and take it to long grass away from the house .
3:20 pm
Nef

Soodle, I'll pray for her. Geriatrics don't always do well with anesthesia; DH's Aunt came out of hip surgery & I got called to the recovery room because she'd grabbed her IV bag & was swinging it at the nurses! It took her 3 weeks to recover mentally from the temporary dementia from it! (And you should hear the stories she told while confused!!! 8-o

I'm real. But no-one in the chog (but some non-chog babblers) have met me
4:28 pm
IndiaJan

4:29 pm
mattygroves

I live outside London in Wraysbury (London, England, not London Ontario)
4:29 pm
Nef

And I've met RoundBarn; she's really real also.
4:31 pm
IndiaJan

not a lot of babblers from England?
4:31 pm
mattygroves

There are a few - often on earlier though, as we're at least 5 hours ahead of North America.
4:31 pm
mattygroves

Plus a few from Scotland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the like.
4:32 pm
IndiaJan

then you guys need to plan a party :)

T'would be nice - though some of the distances (especially with British motorways) can be non-trivial (I know it doesn't seem it but it's a different world here ;) )
4:33 pm
mattygroves

I used to write on a few review websites (Dooyoo, Ciao and the ilk) and we did do a few meet ups with those folk. I even wrote a review of THIS site ;)
4:34 pm
mattygroves

As did another Babbler, whom I got into Babble and into Ciao - though she doesn't chog here. Plays every day though, and finishes every day

Well, yes! Many Americans (bearing in mind I am a displaced American - grew up in NY) forget that Canada is geographically bigger than the US
4:36 pm
IndiaJan

with a way smaller population...
4:38 pm
mattygroves

Yeah - you have got those crazy cold bits, though ;) I went to Expo 86 in Vancouver and met loads from the further north places, away from the US. Slightly scary, in that some actually had an accent like Bob and Doug McKenzie's (complete with the 'ay' at the end of sentences). I thought that was a myth like thinking all Irish say 'beggorah'

IndiaJan

hahaha
4:39 pm
IndiaJan

i know whatcha mean eh
4:39 pm
mattygroves

But do you go 'out and aboot'?
4:40 pm
IndiaJan

well I don't but my neighbour does
4:41 pm
mattygroves

My dad said that I sound like an American trying to put on an English accent...badly. I've been here so long I now have wandering accent syndrome
4:42 pm
Nef

(sorry, had a phone call from a friend who just got back from Alaska). I lived about 180 miles from Winnipeg, & I heard lots of eh?'s at the ends of sentences (& we even would pick that up ourselves at times); but I never heard "out & about" until I met a friend from Montreal
4:42 pm
IndiaJan

i know what you mean..i lived long enough in northern quebec that i picked up a french accent..
4:43 pm
Nef

But then again, most Minnesotans don't talk like the actors in the movie "Fargo" - unless they're from the Iron Range area
4:43 pm
mattygroves

My daughter's accent is 100% British - admittedly, her dad's British, she went to school here and so forth. You'd have no idea she has an American mother
4:44 pm
Nef

"Wandering accent syndrome" -- I like that term! :-)
4:44 pm
IndiaJan

i love the accent in fargo
4:45 pm

My brother lived in St. Johns Newfoundland before he passed away. He picked up the "eh?" habit.
4:45 pm
mattygroves

I have been known to say 'innit' (isn't it) - a very London usage
4:46 pm
IndiaJan

newfoundland is a whole different can of worms..
4:47 pm
IndiaJan

i dont understand a lot of what they say..lol
4:47 pm
mattygroves

That's like when I hear people from either Glasgow or Newcastle. They could be speaking Klingon for all I know (especially strong Newcastle)
4:48 pm
Nef

I never saw the movie (I don't care for them if they have suspense or violence); but we once were Walleye fishing on a boat launch & there were some young guys whose accents were so thick (like "Fargo" that my husband & his friend were laughing about it; so I do know how it sounds
4:48 pm
IndiaJan

:)
4:49 pm
Nef

(they were laughing because it was so interesting to hear; not to make fun of them. The young men were totally unaware of how they sounded to the rest of us.
