2:56 am

grannyrose

{{sprite}} hugs my dearest friend. what bad fortune to have the machine break-down.

2:57 am

sprite

ikr? Each and every time I manage to get our finances in some sort of order, stuff happens :( It brings me down, tbh. Feels like fighting a pointless battle.

2:58 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello my darling friend. How was your day and how are you feeling?

3:00 am

grannyrose

have sent you an email. still weepy. i think it's the pain from the nerve. using TENS and taking drugs...loll

3:01 am

grannyrose

btw, there had to have been a reason why i transferred some extra into my account this morning.

3:01 am

sprite

of course you are weepy, my friend. Pain is a HUGE energy consumer. And I mean huge. You have been in a lot of pain for quite a while , then the infusion with its side effects, and now still that darn nerve pain. It is great the FM is under control for now, but that nerve is draining you. *holds rose in a comforting embrace*

3:02 am

grannyrose

thanx my darling. i wish i was there for real. fortunately i have a good memory of all those hugs when we visited.

3:05 am

grannyrose

ohhhh, *giggle* the last of the acrylic nail varnish has finally gone from my left hand. just a little left on the right. i don't think i am going to forget my visit for ages.

3:05 am

sprite

hehehe true, makes it easier to regenerate the feelings of wellbeing we shared while hugging for real.

3:06 am

sprite

4:13 am

sprite

ugh, why can't I make a past from the an8?

4:17 am

grannyrose

4:17 am

6:15 am

Scrabbler

How are you today, Zooz?

6:16 am

zoozzoom

All okay here thank you, Scrabs. How are you keeping?

6:16 am

Scrabbler

I miss the sun. We are in the midst of almost 2 weeks of rainy, drab days.

6:17 am

zoozzoom

Oh yuck! Sounds like England lol. Hope it stops soon for you. I bet you would like it to turn to snow so you can get your snow shoes out!

6:18 am

Scrabbler

As I typed those words I thought the same thing--life in England.

6:18 am

Scrabbler

6:20 am

zoozzoom

*Especially

6:20 am

Scrabbler

I got my light therapy light out yesterday but it WON"T work! I just bought it last winter, so I am very angry. I need to contact the seller and find my receipt.

6:21 am

zoozzoom

That is typical! I think SAD lights are a good invention!.

6:22 am

zoozzoom

I take it you checked to see if the fuse might of gone.

6:22 am

Scrabbler

I have a big light box but the new one is small and easy to bring on travels. I don't know what to do with it.

6:23 am

rubyfoo

Hello everybody! It's cold here, but sunny, so no complaints from mee.

6:24 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Ruby :-)

6:24 am

Scrabbler

Cold is fine but I need sunshine.

6:24 am

Scrabbler

Ruby, I thought of you as I read the book, The NIghtingale. It takes place in France during WWII.

6:25 am

zoozzoom

((Scrabbler)) I will give you a virtual hug to try and cheer you up :-)

6:25 am

rubyfoo

My son and his wife are visiting this week and it's very heavy going! John is an "expert" on absolutely everything and l, of course, am a know-Nothing idiot!

6:25 am

Scrabbler

Ignore him. I bet he is actually insecure.

6:25 am

Scrabbler

TY, Zooz.

6:26 am

zoozzoom

Sounds like a nasty man, Ruby.

6:26 am

zoozzoom

Why would you treat your mother or anyone for that matter like that!

6:26 am

rubyfoo

Denise is pleasant but, even though l know she doeesn't like me.,,John is just like his father!!

6:27 am

rubyfoo

Prrobably because l'm both stupid andd annoying

6:27 am

rubyfoo

(andmake many typos LOL)

6:28 am

zoozzoom

Well that is probably what he thinks. But we know different. you are a kind strong lady!

6:28 am

zoozzoom

That is probably what he hates..A strong woman. Probably scares him LOL

6:28 am

zoozzoom

I am saying probably too much.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Sounds like an unpleasant visit, Ruby.

6:31 am

zoozzoom

One of my sisters hates the rest of the family. She says we are all peasants. So we do not communicate at all. And that is fine by me.

6:33 am

zoozzoom

I think I have killed thechat so will go and grab a bite to eat. Hope you all have a great day. Happy babbling everyone!

6:34 am

Scrabbler

No, zooz, we are trying to protect our Ruby.

6:34 am

rubyfoo

lm OK, having been mentally prepared for the worst.

6:34 am

Scrabbler

Almost every family has at least one toxic member that disrupts the peace.

6:36 am

rubyfoo

They needed to visit, but for me it's more of a chore, not a pleasure.

6:36 am

Scrabbler

Sadly I must get ready for work now. Maybe I will return tonight. Enjoy the day.

6:37 am

lynxxx

Hello Ruby - looks like you are the only one here

6:37 am

rubyfoo

Bye Scrabs and thank you for your kind wordds

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Hi lynxx. Zzoozz and scrabs were commisserating (sp??) about my nasty son who is visiting witgh his wife this week

6:40 am

rubyfoo

The three of us are sitting herre , each with his own computer.

6:41 am

lynxxx

Sounds like you need to make a looong list of things for him to do while he is there and keep him out of your hair.

6:43 am

rubyfoo

His wife builds fires while he snoops around in cupboards and closets, shlepping all the photo albums downstairs without particularly wanting things identified

6:48 am

lynxxx

He sounds bored - def needs some jobs to do. Gardening? Brushing the dogs (ha! as if they would let him)

6:49 am

rubyfoo

You're kçidding, right? l can't even get them to walk the dogs

6:49 am

rubyfoo

The dogs love both of them which is very nice for me as, occasionally, Rufe decides to dislike someone and can be really obnoxious about it

6:50 am

rubyfoo

And today is a Holiday so no housekeeper and feww restaurants open

6:51 am

lynxxx

That is nice...

6:51 am

lynxxx

so they are making you lunch! nice!

7:00 am

rubyfoo

No. l made French toast for a late breakfast and there is plenty of food for dinner. When John shops for food, it's like he''s starving. He's fat, but says that in the US that word is taboo!

7:00 am

lynxxx

8:36 am

Judi

Yeah. We don't do animal control. I told them to call an exterminator. It's probably either a bat, bird or squirrel.

8:36 am

ChampFit

Exactly! Whatever it is, police don't need to be messing with it.

8:36 am

bichon

In that case you are correct Judi

thnx

9:26 am

i doubt anyone under the age of 50 would know that word. my grand kids never heard it for sure.

9:27 am

amelu0218

for real, mkg... mine would have the 'deer in the headlights' look if I asked them to define, lol.

9:27 am

mkg

i think when it first came out, in the 50s, it was called ol**margarine as one word. it got shortened to ol** and now it is called margarine. not sure why.

9:28 am

mkg

coke stayed coke. cant imagine why the name changed.

9:28 am

amelu0218

dunno... ol** may have been a brand name and margarine was generic?

9:28 am

penquis

actually coca-cola became coke later...

9:29 am

Shirlockc

ol** refers to the chemical compound (I think). probably some marketing person thought it sounded too "artificial" to keep that reference

9:30 am

amelu0218

Shirlockc, I seem to remember that tidbit, you're probably spot on (chem compound, that is)...

9:39 am

bichon

do people still use that spread?

Heya rbud. How are you doing? Savannah is gorgeous!

11:39 pm

rbud

just finished up here, yay! Oh, thanks, I know she is, but it's only been in the last week or two that we've started to see her smiling. She's been a colic-y unhappy little bit for most of her life so far. Finally a formula mix (along with what her mama can come up with) that works.

11:46 pm

rururocks

guessing savannah is a new grandchild?

11:50 pm

rbud

yes, first and only so far. certainly wish Hubs had made it long enough to see her, she'd have charmed him right off. :)

11:52 pm

rbud

and then... my mom got to meet her, too, on her 87th birthday, Sept. 26th - her first great-grandbaby! and then sadly Mom passed away a week ago. It's been a rough year.

11:53 pm

rbud

glad to have this new little one to take my mind off it all. ♥
