good morning all

1:19 am

flosey

good morning Sprite

1:20 am

sprite

good evening, flosey :) *hug* How was your day and how are you?

1:23 am

flosey

today was a much needed quiet day, the rest of the week is busy but ready for it. How about you Sprite, busy week ahead?

1:24 am

sprite

glad you could have some downtime to charge the battery! No, a quiet week, I planned it more or less empty because I didn't know if I would be flattened by the party. So now that I am not, I have a lovely week of leisure.

1:25 am

flosey

how nice to look ahead to leisure time

1:26 am

sprite

absolutely. Time to do some creative stuff, for sure.

1:28 am

sprite

do you have fun busy stuff planned, or just chores (apart from the doctor appointment)

1:31 am

flosey

couple of medical appts next 2 days, then fun bridge with regular 4some Friday

1:31 am

grannyrose

good morning {{sprite}} and good eve to you flosey.

1:32 am

flosey

hi there Rose, always good to see you

1:32 am

sprite

at least something fun to look forward to. You'll let us know what the doctor says, won't you? If it feels okay to share, that is?

1:33 am

sprite

*hugssss* my dear rose. I was just thinking I didn't see you yesterday and if you wasn't here today, I'd be worried Don had worsened. Good to see you. How are you and how is Don?

1:33 am

flosey

oh yes, Sprite, will keep you informed

1:33 am

grannyrose

oh, sprite, go for a walk in your forest. i would love to think and 'see' that.

1:34 am

grannyrose

i'm okay, just. nerve pain is gross. am thinking i might head back to dr. john.

1:34 am

sprite

my forest is beautiful atm. Autumn colours. But it pours and pours, sweetie. Neither Terra nor me would be stoked to be walking there now.

1:35 am

flosey

ouch Rose, nerve pain is nasty

1:35 am

sprite

sounds like a plan. Call him today, honey. Not a good thing to let the pain stack. Isn't the TENS helping at all?

1:35 am

grannyrose

don had a coughing attack which lasted until 4am. when i made him one of my concoctions of lemon juice etc. so both well down in the sleep area.

1:36 am

grannyrose

it does help sprite, but it comes back with a vengeance.

1:36 am

sprite

very good. A handsome dose of whiskey in it should send him straight to sleep :D

1:36 am

sprite

am sorry, btw, that Don isn't feeling well. Give him my best and a hug, please, darling?

1:37 am

grannyrose

naughty rain to be keeping you two out of your forest.

1:37 am

sprite

high time to call dr John then. Not today, of course... but tomorrow first thing. Okay?

1:38 am

grannyrose

yup, tomorrow is good. also i checked the freezer at church and i have two large containers of soup for friday which gives me a bit of slack.

1:38 am

sprite

lol rose, we even came back a day early from the canoe meet. Picture the deepest point of the camping, a borrowed tent that was not waterproof at all, a puddle of water that had grown to about 10x10m, and ankle-deep, or as Terra would tell you, up to the belly. All bedstuff wet.

1:39 am

sprite

ah good, rose, take the slack then and just defrost the soup. You should go very easy on yourself while in so much pain.

1:39 am

grannyrose

oh dear heaven sprite.

1:40 am

flosey

Ah the Autumn colours!! here the maples turn yellow - back in Ontario they're sugar maples and they turn red - creating a much more colourful mix

1:40 am

sprite

it was definitely NOT fun anymore. And I didn't say it, because the canoe meet is a big thing in the year, and it is Rob's thing, so I kept my mouth shut. But at some point he looked at me and said: I've had it. We are going home.

1:40 am

grannyrose

reminds me of the easter my first and i, with three kids were under leaky canvas when the wettest easter recorded hit the area where we were.

1:41 am

sprite

I would love to see those sugar maples turn one day, I have heard it is really spectacular.

1:41 am

grannyrose

i sat up all night watching my hubby and kids bobbing around the tent on their airbeds.

1:42 am

sprite

lollll yes rose, something like that! Only worse in your case, because you had little kids to keep warm and dry. I had quite the job just keeping Terra out of the water. Poor thing, with his arthrosis, he was NOT a happy puppy.

1:42 am

sprite

and they slept like that dead, probably?

1:42 am

grannyrose

yup, lolll

1:43 am

sprite

men.... :D (slightly jealous)

1:45 am

Maisie

Good morning everybody

1:45 am

sprite

good morning, Maisie! *hug* How are you this wet and windy morning?

1:45 am

flosey

good morning Maisie

1:45 am

grannyrose

ahhh, maisie !! good morning honey

1:46 am

Maisie

Well the rain has finally stopped over her, still windy though. I am fine thank you how are you?

1:46 am

sprite

all good here. Looking forward to a very lazy day. Just shopping and a tiny bit of cooking just for me, and that is IT.

1:46 am

Maisie

Hello stranger (Rose) haven't seen you for a while, how are you and Don. I hear he's had flu

1:47 am

Maisie

I like lazy days

1:47 am

sprite

am gonna binge-watch netflix and knit on my owl sweater.

1:48 am

Maisie

Sounds like a plan. I am looking after Frankie who learned how to climb on Monday so will have my hands full. Also have Roni who started school on Monday so have to deliver him there at 1 o'clock

1:49 am

grannyrose

don still coughing. this is the third bout of flu. me , am suffering with the nerve pain. FM seems to be much under control. am walking around supermarkets, and our street with my new wheelie walker.

1:49 am

Maisie

You should be friend with me on Facebook so you could see their pictures

1:49 am

sprite

oh, a busy day, Maisie! I remember those days... kids like that are a handful. Constant vigilance, lol.

1:49 am

sprite

so proud of you, rose. Goooo with the wheeliewalker.

1:50 am

Maisie

Poor Don, one bout of flu knocks you out 3 must be awful. Glad you're enjoying the walker, pain not so good.

1:50 am

sprite

Maisie, I don't really do facebook. Hardly ever check in :(

1:51 am

sprite

Don should really get his tonsils out, rose, I think. Might be a constant source of bacteria etc.

1:51 am

Maisie

I do Facebook mainly to play games but like seeing what friends and family are up to

1:52 am

sprite

the games took up too much of my time, and I have family and friends who easily post 50 pics a day. Drives me batty.

1:53 am

ursh

hello all - to me Facebook is just one big advertisement board - not going there much anymore

1:53 am

sprite

hi ursh!

1:53 am

Maisie

I see why you don't do it then sprite

1:53 am

Maisie

Morning ursh

1:54 am

sprite

true, dat, lots and lots of advertisements too

1:58 am

flosey

falling asleep!! must get to bed, 39 for tomorrow, good night all

1:58 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey, and good luck tomorrow

1:59 am

grannyrose

after don and i joined facebook (we set up accounts) a friend of ours was hacked into. right into his computer. since then don and i haven't touched our accounts. too scared to do so. don has finally managed to close his account.

1:59 am

grannyrose

2:04 am

grannyrose

2:04 am

sprite

awwww they are adorable!

2:04 am

Maisie

Ah yhanks, I think so too

2:05 am

Maisie

"thanks"

2:05 am

sprite

might take a few force-refreshes before you see the changed icon. We can see it when we click your profile though.

2:06 am

grannyrose

i refreshed my babble page and your new icon is heremaisie.

2:07 am

Maisie

They were "my job" 4 days a week till they went to preschool. I start with the new pair at the end of this month. No more Tuesday whist for me any more

2:08 am

sprite

wow Maisie, that is great

2:08 am

Maisie

I told the girls that if they have any more babies they'd better hurry up before I get to old to look after them

2:09 am

grannyrose

what a wonderful grandma you are Maisie. my hat is off to you.

2:09 am

sprite

and an awesome mother

2:09 am

Maisie

I love it

2:11 am

sprite

I hope your girls appreciate you :) I'd kill for a mother like you.

2:11 am

Maisie

What a nice thing to say

2:12 am

sprite

:)

2:13 am

Maisie

The letters in this grid are the wrong way round, there are so many words I see like farm that aren't there

2:14 am

sprite

I know what you mean. I keep entering perfectly valid words that seem to be there too.

2:17 am

Maisie

I can't see anything today, only got 62 words. Usually with a grid this size words jump out at you

2:18 am

sprite

doesn't help that the gerund ending is not as productive as you'd expect in a grid like this

2:18 am

Maisie

new word redit - a book you've already taken out of the library

2:18 am

sprite

oh I like it. Am putting it in.

2:19 am

sprite

2:19 am

Maisie

Good morning. Winter has arrived!

3:25 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Ruby, It is still just about mild here at around the 17c mark. Just a matter of time before we start getting much colder temperatures though.

3:33 am

rubyfoo

Goodnews, zzoozz. I had a scan this AM and all is stable! I am very relieved

3:33 am

Lizlin

Hi all - that's fantastic news, Ruby :)

3:33 am

zoozzoom

(((Ruby))) That is great to hear!!

3:33 am

rubyfoo

Hopefully, now it cn be every 6 months instead of every 3

3:34 am

rubyfoo

Hi Liz.

3:34 am

zoozzoom

Hello, LIz!

3:34 am

rubyfoo

So l guess l'll be around a while!!

3:34 am

Lizlin

That must be such a weight lifted from your shoulders.

3:34 am

Lizlin

Hi Zooz :)

3:35 am

rubyfoo

Yes, I worry each time

3:35 am

zoozzoom

LOL Thank goodness for that, Ruby :-)

3:35 am

zoozzoom

That was for being around a while longer not that you worry each time :-)

3:36 am

zoozzoom

Did you and your UK friends have a great day the other day, Liz?

3:37 am

rubyfoo

Are you having Spring, Liz?

3:38 am

Lizlin

Yes - you mean whale watching? There were loads of whales but they weren't very active. Still for most people (them included) just seeing the whales is magical. They've been here nearly 2 weeks - leave tomorrow evening :(

3:38 am

Lizlin

Yes, Ruby - Spring here. The weather is warming up and it's lovely right now - no humidity and the nights are pleasant.

3:39 am

zoozzoom

I still think AR 4/4 (bottom) should be able to be a PT...As in I can't be AR**ed to do anymore work today lol

3:39 am

zoozzoom

At least they and you will have lots of nice memories of the time spent with you!

3:39 am

Lizlin

I always try that - hard to believe that the one word is accepted but not the other.

3:40 am

zoozzoom

Is it too early for me to say I can't wait for Summer!

3:41 am

Lizlin

Never too early to say that

3:41 am

Lizlin

I hate feeling cold.

3:41 am

Lizlin

it's true Zooz - lots of lovely memories, which will last and then we've got more friends coming over next year :)

3:42 am

zoozzoom

Oh yes me too. My mother and I are like reptiles we are always cold lol as my dad is always hot.

3:42 am

rubyfoo

It's very cold in the house

3:42 am

zoozzoom

Oh wow you are a busy couple, Liz! Good to keep active when you can.

3:42 am

zoozzoom

Get that fire gong , Ruby!

3:43 am

zoozzoom

Going even.

3:43 am

Lizlin

Hope you both keep warm during the winter.

3:43 am

rubyfoo

As long as l'm alive, l don't care if it's too hot or too cold. But l think l'll make a fire

3:43 am

rubyfoo

anyway LOL

3:43 am

Lizlin

It's funny - we've had no overseas visitors for quite a few years - now 2 sets within a few months of each other. Still, that's great and I'm happy with that.

3:44 am

rubyfoo

Our first 2 years here, we had visitors almost every month

3:44 am

zoozzoom

Thanks, /Liz. Hoping for a mild winter..Will do what , Molly, does and chant...mild winter...mild winter..lol

3:44 am

Lizlin

We also had more visitors the first few years after we moved here.

3:45 am

rubyfoo

They say there'll be an Indian summer here, but there aren't any Indians

3:45 am

zoozzoom

lol

3:45 am

zoozzoom

I would love an indian Summer here!

3:45 am

Lizlin

:)

3:46 am

rubyfoo

The lasst flowers are forming and the sedum arre particulrly lovely

3:47 am

Lizlin

Sounds lovely and here our jasmine is wonderful - to see and smell and in a few weeks all the jacaranda will be in full blossom.

3:47 am

zoozzoom

I need to cut my two trees this winter. Not looking forward to that. Can ot afford to pay someone a large amount of money to do it so thought I would try and do it myself.

3:48 am

Lizlin

That sounds like a big job Zooz - take care you know which way they're going to fall!!!!

3:48 am

zoozzoom

I had a jasmine plant many years ago but I could not keep it going.

3:48 am

zoozzoom

Don't care which way they fall, Liz, as long as it is not me doing the fall lol

3:48 am

Lizlin

We had one in London too - I love the smell.

3:48 am

rubyfoo

The closest thing l have to jasmine is "mock orange" but it's very short-lived.

3:49 am

Lizlin

:)

3:49 am

zoozzoom

I am scared of heights too so will only cut from halfway up the tree and hope they grow back lol

3:49 am

rubyfoo

There are still a lot of roses and the spirea are starting their second flowering.

3:49 am

rubyfoo

wharf

3:50 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Ruby

3:50 am

rubyfoo

sorry

3:50 am

Lizlin

Ooooh! And it extends into an 8 :)

3:50 am

zoozzoom

I am thinking of planting roses next year as they look wonderful.

3:50 am

Lizlin

I love roses.

3:50 am

zoozzoom

I'll snap that free clue up!

3:50 am

rubyfoo

ty, l didn't see that, ty Liz

3:50 am

Lizlin

I thought they didn't grow here - but I have seen some. We don't have any.

3:52 am

zoozzoom

Okay oh bad is it that I only knew about the gerund when you mentioned that the WH could be extended!

3:52 am

zoozzoom

How not oh

3:52 am

rubyfoo

My roses were terribly neglected, but l finally have a real "paysagiste" and they should be spectacular, in their quiet way, next year

3:53 am

Lizlin

Zooz - I'm just trying that ending on everything!

3:53 am

Lizlin

What colour is that Ruby?

3:53 am

rubyfoo

I think roses grow everywhere; it's just a question of finding the right ones.

3:53 am

zoozzoom

My garden is too small to have a landscapist.

3:54 am

rubyfoo

Everything in the garden is i n a limited range: all pmurples, magenta, pink, red, blue salmon (to match the house) and some white for punctuation

3:55 am

zoozzoom

Nice kind of pastel colours!

3:55 am

rubyfoo

no yellow or orange (except in early spring with forsythia, daffs and primroses, none of which l planted)

3:56 am

rubyfoo

It's like an English gardden

3:56 am

rubyfoo

French gardens are too formal

3:57 am

zoozzoom

How many kinds of sweet flowers grow
In an English country garden? Got that song stuck in my head now lol

3:57 am

rubyfoo

I planned it carefully before we came here, kept notebooks, read books, but it's my first gartrden and about half of what l put in the first year disappeared

3:58 am

zoozzoom

trial and error, Ruby, trial and error.

3:58 am

rubyfoo

L was very ambitious -- now, not so much

3:59 am

Lizlin

Your garden sounds lovely - and from the pictures I've seen, it is lovely.

3:59 am

rubyfoo

l lost: lupins; foxglove, hollyhocks, 75% of the tulips, 2/3 of perlargonium, globe thistles.

3:59 am

zoozzoom

Almost 10 here so had better get ready to see parents. Hope you have a great evening, Liz and a wonderful day, Ruby.

4:00 am

rubyfoo

It's interesting watching its evolutiion

4:00 am

rubyfoo

4:00 am

zoozzoom

Sorry to keep leaving you around ths time of the day.

MLFAN17

lol ruby.. I haven't played much ina while the last few times I went there it was very small puzzles I don't do those. and my rating keeps falling

9:00 am

MLFAN17

is the or a babblet?

MLFAN17

9:00 am

rubyfoo

I am terrible at it and not improving. I'm always at the bottom of the scores

9:01 am

rubyfoo

or4/4 like the end of the Irish expression

9:02 am

MLFAN17

ruby I have been at the bottom when I have played off and on recently I am kind of stunned. I thought I would be at least in the middle.. no such luck

9:02 am

MLFAN17

fund the or 4 ty

9:03 am

rubyfoo

l got to 600 for about 5minutes but often drop below 500

9:03 am

rubyfoo

I'm just not quick enough

9:03 am

MLFAN17

the problem is ruby we are not "familiar" with a lot of words they use. I am really good with 4 letters words lol

9:04 am

MLFAN17

nbt

9:06 am

rubyfoo

l don't understand the scoring. Sometimes l think l've done really well, only to drop points (and the opposite). l've won once, butl think there were only one or two other players. lt's embarrassing!

9:06 am

MLFAN17

is the wh8 a strange word?

9:07 am

MLFAN17

ruby I agree.i won a round once but so did at least 3 or 4 other people that time

9:07 am

rubyfoo

No, it extends from the other wh's, but it's surprising in gerund form

9:07 am

MLFAN17

peri is good at serpentine

9:07 am

MLFAN17

does it end in g or e?

9:08 am

rubyfoo

Part of the problem is that l play lying down, not conducive to fast or correct typing

9:08 am

I was most recently at Acadia National Park and my head is still there.

It was just a magical place. So beautiful and so much to do and to see. We biked, hiked, and paddled.

5:48 pm

car.eeyore

Acadia! That's right! Wonderful! I am so glad you had a great trip. The pictures were amazing...as usual :)

5:50 pm

I must return there in the next few years. I have more lakes in kayak in, more mountains to climb, and carriage roads for biking.

And so many state parks, lakes, rivers, mountains.

5:56 pm

5:57 pm

Scrabbler

Longer than California, huh?

5:57 pm

5:57 pm
