*hugs Kam* Hello there, dear one, how are you doing today?
1:07 am
Kamanjah

well! Doggie is groomed and looks like a Springer Spaniel again. Got laundry and all of his bedding clean, and hubs will be home on Sunday. Life is good!
1:07 am
Kamanjah

And how are you? I hope you have a sunny morning :)
1:08 am
sprite

sounds good :) One more full day alone for you, and then you can hug your beloved again.
1:08 am

Thanks for the tip. I would have never have guessed that

enough for tonight, will wish you all sweet dreams or a great day, depending on where you are
1:09 am
sprite

skies are grey here this morning. But I don't have many chores waiting for me today, I can take it very easy and do things I like, so the weather will not bother me.
1:09 am
sprite

bye nan
1:09 am
Kamanjah

It's that time of year, you never know what you'll wake up to unless you watch the forecast...and you'll still be surprised most of the time
1:10 am
Kamanjah

Night nan, sweet dreams!
1:11 am
sprite

hehehe yeah, the forecasts are as often wrong as they are right. If I had been wrong as often as the forecasters back when I still worked for a boss, I'd have been fired within a year!
1:13 am
Kamanjah

haha! Weather just sneaks right in when they're not watching. I only check predicted temps when I have to dress comfortably enough to not freeze, and I usually layer, just in case it gets warmer
1:14 am
sprite

smart moves. I usually go about my business without even checking the weather. It is as it is :)
1:16 am
cybernan

hi Sprite -- sorry for the delay -- hit something by mistake and had to figure out how to get back to the normal display for expert
1:16 am
Kamanjah

We've been ranging from mid 70s to low 30s the past couple of weeks, that makes a difference in what one wears
1:16 am
sprite

no harm done, nan. Glad you figured out how to get back here.
1:17 am
sprite

layers is a great way to go in any weather, Kam, you are so right about that
1:17 am
Kamanjah

I hate it when a cat marches across the keyboard...who knows where my browser will go. So far they haven't posted anything...
1:21 am
sprite

might lead you to unknown options in the menu though :D

wtg sinnergy
1:24 am
Kamanjah

As long as they don't post, I can fix it. They have posted on Facebook, but I quickly deleted.
The whole problem is the "terrain" of the desk being the first place to jump up, then march across to the food bowl. Odd setup, but have to keep cat food on a table away from the dog
1:24 am
Kamanjah

WTG Sinnergy!
1:24 am
sprite

yes, that makes sense indeed. I used to have the catfood on the sink for the same reason
1:25 am
Kamanjah

I'm SO lucky they stay off of the kitchen counters! All of them are so good about that.
1:26 am
sprite

brb, dog is awake and wants food
1:31 am
sprite

back
1:31 am
Kamanjah

I know how that goes - my dog used to paw at my leg, but I retrained him to nose my arm. He'll still paw if his nose can't reach my arm and he wants food. He needed "comfort food" tonight I think, after his grooming. He got a bit impatient toward the end, the gal said
1:32 am
Kamanjah

what kind of dog?
1:32 am
sprite

must be rather irritating for a dog, I think, to be groomed by a strange lady.
1:32 am
sprite

we have a king charles cavalier spaniel
1:33 am
Kamanjah

He knows her. Not as well as his previous groomer, but she had a brain tumor show up last year, poor gal. She's doing well, but getting a 2nd round of chemo and only can handle little dogs - my Blaze is 70+ #
1:33 am
Kamanjah

Spaniels are the bestest!
1:34 am
sprite

woot, that is a big one. And poor groomer girl. Glad she is doing okay.
1:34 am
Kamanjah

I am too, she's very young, under 30. What a nightmare, but she's being so brave
1:35 am
sprite

so true. You weren't here yet, I think, when we were deciding on which breed of dog. Several babblers adviced me to take a spaniel, and Atalante specifically pointed me to the king charles cavalier. It is the perfect dog for us in every way.
1:36 am
sprite

really scary. I hope she will pull through in full remission.
1:37 am
Kamanjah

I certainly hope so for her sake - and the fact that she's the best groomer ever! She breeds and shows poodles, so she's a super perfectionist.
1:38 am
sprite

quite different from most other breeds though. Iirc, poodles have hair and not fur.
1:40 am
ursh

poodles - reminds me when my daughter was little we went to a dog show and she thought the standard poodles were "dogs on wheels"
1:40 am
Kamanjah

I adore spaniels. My first doggie love was a cocker my uncle had - I was all of one year old and called it the "goggie wid da gort goat" my mom said. I've had a mix that was supposed to be a Cocker, but was more King Charles - a pretty red girl. Then I adopted a Springer who showed up at the local shelter. I had him for years. When he passed, Springer was all I could imagine again. I love German Shepherd Dogs and Dobermans too, but Springers are just right for me.
1:40 am
sprite

awww that is priceless, ursh
1:41 am
Kamanjah

That's cute, ursh! I wasn't used to seeing standards until I ran across this groomer. Her dogs are awesome, and so calm tempered.
1:43 am
sprite

it was fun finding the right breed. Atalanta and Haz asked all kinds of questions about our lifestyle, then said Spaniel... just as happy to trek all day with you as to laze about, great tempers, sweet and cuddly. And then because of my physical limitations, a small dog was needed, so KCC spaniel :D
1:46 am
Kamanjah

Perfect! You're right, I wasn't here then. I'm glad you found a good companion. If I had a fence that could contain one, I probably would have another. Loved my Lucy. My neighbor breeds and shows Corgis. They're ok, but yappy. She gets crazy (and illegal with a propane torch) trying to keep foxtails out of their yard. Two years ago she burned part of our property! The fire dept came out on her last year, and two weeks later, she was at it again.
1:47 am
sprite

wow, that is crazy. Is she out of her mind?
1:48 am
Kamanjah

In some ways, yes! Very eccentric, but that kind of fits in...except for her carelessness with torches
1:49 am
sprite

I don't mind eccentric, but I would draw the line at setting my property on fire
1:50 am
Kamanjah

We did pitch a fit, she's containing it to one area - but she set her freaking porch on fire last year! If I hear that torch this year, I'm calling the fire dept ... again.
1:51 am
sprite

so would I. This goes beyond neighbour irritations, this is downright dangerous.

I know! I prefer folks who stay legal, especially in such a high danger fire zone. Homeowner's insurance is almost as much as taxes are! California is DRY

it's a poopy grid, with cr4 and me5/6
1:56 am
Kamanjah

Yes we do. And hubby's house is gone from the big fire in 2015. We can't even start to rebuild yet either, the county is being stupid about permits and such. Our gov't is broken, I hope not beyond repair at the next election.
Hahaha, it is one of those grids...
1:57 am

that is so crazy! I thought the Netherlands were bad with permits and all, but this sounds just as hopeless.

another of dem obsolete words that enable loves so much. It was used as a mild oath, or to say indeed.
2:03 am
Kamanjah

I didn't even look that one up - the name is so familiar. Our cursed lake, haha! It's the only one that is usually full - it's a reservoir, actually.
2:04 am

I am always trying to learn a new word a day from babble, lol. Even after 14 years, it still works.

Always! And so many alternate spellings too. The py group is a challenge tonight.

Hello, Sprite :-) Not seen parents since Sunday (My birthday) as since then I came down with a cold.
2:13 am

But they tell me they are doing okay. I am going to see them today.
2:13 am

Hello ((Ruby))
2:13 am

I am watching Sleepy Hollow on Netflix atm. Very entertaining, and the male lead could easily say something like the pa6. He is Ichabod Crane transferred to our time.

2 days above freezing, so maybe ^pring is coming after all
2:14 am

In two weeks, the garden will be full of flowers!

And now I have a swollen bottom lip and I can tell it is a cold sore coming up. Ugh!
2:14 am

poor zooz. And belated Happy Birthday to you! May your next year of life be happy and relaxed :)
2:14 am

poor zzoozz!
2:15 am

ugh, that is lousy, zooz. Do you have cold sore treatment in the house? The sooner you start, the better it will work.
2:15 am
Kamanjah

You're not supposed to get a cold for your birthday, zooz! I hope you feel better soon, and belated happy wishes!
2:15 am
zoozzoom

Still cold here so I am hoing it will start to warm up soon, Ruby!
2:16 am
rubyfoo

too many kisses!
2:16 am
Kamanjah

Hi Ruby, haven't seen you in ages! How are you? Glad to hear your weather is warming
2:16 am
zoozzoom

No I don't, Sprite. I am going to see if I can get one on the way up to see parents.
2:16 am
zoozzoom

Thanks, Kamanjah!
2:16 am
rubyfoo

Warming only a little, but it gives me hope after winter's Slough of Despond!
2:16 am
sprite

smart move, zooz. Having a cold is bad enough without a fullblown sore
2:18 am
zoozzoom

I know it can be contagious so I will not be doing any kisses.
2:19 am
sprite

highly contagious indeed
2:20 am
zoozzoom

Both my parents had cold sores recently too but theirs did not look that big. Mine always blow up like a ruddy cauliflower :-9
2:20 am

2:20 am

so painful too
2:20 am

Finished! I'm going to go try to get in bed "early" tonight. Lots to do tomorrow before my sweetie gets home Sunday!

Blue clear skies here at the moment.
2:25 am

Okay just checked online the chemist opens at 9am
2:25 am

that is great winter weather for me. I love the crispy air and the sun in winter.
2:25 am
sprite

ah good, zooz.
2:25 am
zoozzoom

I will ask them to give me a cream that will make the sore go away in an hour :-)
2:26 am
sprite

good idea, LOL!
I like the little stickers best, but they only work for sores on the outside of the lips. The ones that are partly on the inside will have to be creamed. Every few hours.
2:27 am
zoozzoom

Oh no I like it nice and warm. Not keen on the cold weather at all. Why I was born here I will never know. My parents should of had me in a much hotter climate than here.
2:27 am
zoozzoom

Oh I think this one will come up on the outside of the lip. I do not recall getting one on the inside .
2:28 am
sprite

hehehe, silly parents! I am kind of an all weather kinda gal. The only thing I really cannot handle is high temps with high humidity.
2:29 am
sprite

in that case, get some of those lip bandage stickers too. Once you have one in place, you will not feel the pain anymore.
2:30 am
zoozzoom

Okay will ask about them. Thanks. Well I had better get of and get ready to buy some. Have a great day, ((Sprite)) & ((Ruby))
2:31 am

have a lovely day, zooz, and my best to your parents. *hugs* and feel better soon!

After weeks of single digit temperatures this winter, anything above 20 feels like Spring to me.
3:22 am
MollyL

I bought a little potted primroses a few weeks ago because it was so colorful and "Spring looking".
3:23 am
rubyfoo

Your winter was worse than mine, Molly, here is was rainy and grey, but much less snow than predicted
3:23 am
rubyfoo

Which color primroses?
3:24 am
MollyL

We are to have some kind of crappy "wintry mix" tonight into tomorrow. I don't care much about that kind of weather when I am home on the weekend.
3:24 am
MollyL

They are yellow primroses. Very cheery.
3:24 am
rubyfoo

"wintry mix" sounds nasty
3:25 am
rubyfoo

Can you plant them in the garden after?
3:26 am
MollyL

I will certainly move them outside when the weather permits. My plants always do better outside.
3:27 am
rubyfoo

They're very hardy and grow wild here
3:27 am

Lots of words for sh*t in here!
3:27 am

They are a harbinger of Spring. Glad you are seeing some. My sister saw some daffodils in bloom yesterday. Mother Earth is waking up.

we can't because the only country in the world wealthy enough for Olin, Ruger, Smith & Wesson and the rest to profitably sell to private citizens happens to have a consitutional amendment for those companies to hide behind

These united states could abolish the second amendment and there would still be gun violence. People who want to do bad things with guns get them illegally.
12:18 pm
rururocks

I agree with that Molly, but how do kids get their hands on assault rifles.> They should be banned
12:20 pm
MollyL

They could be banned, just like liquor was during prohibition. People get banned things anyway. The problem is the state of mental health not the availability of guns. Mentally healthy people do not commit violent acts with guns.
12:21 pm
chrisk

yes they do - and then they call it temporary insanity as the defense
12:26 pm
dan2bit

the problem is actually both, Molly. We need to work on both.
12:26 pm
mael

we absolutely need to work on both
12:26 pm
mael

mental health issues exists in all countries, but no other country has mass shootings like the us
12:27 pm
MollyL

Do a Google search on gun violence. The US is not the ONLY country with that problem. The things that happen here just get more media coverage.
12:27 pm
rururocks

Yes there are mael
12:28 pm
dan2bit

I don't need to. I am just so tired of the argument that we shouldn't do anything about the easy access to guns because murders will still happen. That's been true the entire history of our species
12:28 pm
rururocks

Iran, afghanistan, several african countries, recently in pakistan, syria, egypt etc
12:29 pm
rururocks

I think access to weapons needs to be set up in a different way.
12:29 pm
dan2bit

the success criteria isn't getting rid of murders, it's making it harder for them to be mass killings
12:29 pm

those are all unstable countries with guerrilla warfare

you need to compare the us with similarly developed and rich countries

when I grew up I had to lean far left as my Dad was an extreme right-winger, so someone had to balance the axis of the world
12:34 pm

I've very left and so is my husband, who is a gun owner
12:35 pm
mael

he's just a gun owner in favor of restrictive and sensible gun legislation
12:36 pm

I don't have a problem with normal, responsible people having guns. But it gets dicier with people who have children and aren't super safe though. I think people who apply to get guns should get more screenings, and background checks, and some testing. I think the same for people planning to have children though :D
12:38 pm
mael

I think there should be mandatory insurance, mandatory checks to make sure guns are secured properly, and revokable gun licenses
12:38 pm
mael

and a strict chain of ownership and registration for guns

one of the most interesting hypotheses I've seen is that if black Americans started buying assault rifles at the same rates as white Americans, we'd have all of that within a month
12:38 pm
rururocks

I agree with that too
12:39 pm
mael

you're absolutely right, dan2bit
12:39 pm

agree 100% ru...
12:40 pm
rururocks

case in point.. my parents should never have had kids... they'd never have passed the test.. but then you'd all be punless more or less
12:41 pm
mael

and that would be sad, ru :)
12:43 pm
rururocks

That's a big reason I never had kids, I knew I'd be a crappy parent. I wasn't given the skills necessary to raise one properly. I greatly respect people who can and can do it well
12:49 pm

All that Americans can do is vote for candidates who are not in thrall to the NRA; many pols (including Trump) get millions from that lobby.

You can't compare the number of killings by militants in war-torn countries or terrorists in Europe to school children killed in the US
12:55 pm

absolutely, ruby
12:55 pm

I was just pointing out that there are mass shootings and killings around the world. The issue in America centers around providing more care in Mental health in my opinion.

The NY Times ran an excellent article on the top 10 U.S. Senate and House members in terms of NRA donations for the past ten years. Not surprisingly, almost all are republican. There are a couple of more articles in the series. Worth a read.
12:56 pm
fuzzybunny

This article ran yesterday.
12:57 pm
rubyfoo

No, ru, thee mass killings elsewhere are generally militants. The incidence of mental heealth is the same percentagee in all the "civilized" counttries of Europe
12:57 pm

There are 3 legally held firearms in my house - a single barrel & a double barrel shotgun & a rifle. They belong to my son. In order for him to get a licence for these, he underwent psychological & physical examinations (eyesight/hearing tests). The police then came to my home to inspect the gun-safe where these articles are kept. The gunsafe has a triple mortice lock & is bolted to the wall, the floor & the ceiling. I still hate the fact that these damn things occupy my home.
1:14 pm

And there's the problem. It's the kind of gun.

My son is in the process of getting passports for the bloody things. (Passports for guns is a thing!!) when the paperwork is sorted, he will take them over to England to his own house. And good riddance, I say!!

Funny story..... A Tax Clearance Certificate in this country is called a C45. Before computerisation, fraudulent C45's could be bought on the black market. An acquaintance of mine negotiated with a well known Dublin criminal to obtain a C45. Substantial money changed hands. Imagine his horror when, instead of a Tax Clearance Certificate, he found himself in possession of a Colt 45!
1:33 pm

Oh my!
1:35 pm

True story!!!
1:36 pm

we only give tax clearances to the upper one percent in america
1:39 pm

In this part of the world, if your tax affairs are in order, the Revenue Commissioners will issue you with a C45. Hence it's value on the black market, pre-computer days.

Oh, we all are, Ru. We were audited once. They wanted our tax forms from 12 years prior + the records on the sale of our then house. I sent them the HUD 1 statement and told them to go pound sand because the cut-off for audits is 11 years (or was at the time). They sent me a follow up letter saying no further action was necessary. Hell to the yeah.
