Cold morning and l'm not so great today- two nurses, masseur, but no energy
4:28 am
rubyfoo

Where are you now?
4:28 am
rubyfoo

stoat
4:28 am
rubyfoo

sorry
4:29 am
rubyfoo

l won't talk, will just listen!
4:35 am
MollyL

I think the prolonged cold has left everyone exhausted. Your body's reaction to the cold is to tense up. We all need some sunshine to warm our weary winter muscles.
4:36 am
rubyfoo

Yes
4:50 am
MollyL

Hope you feel better soon, Ruby.
4:51 am
rubyfoo

Thank you; it's just a bad morning
4:55 am
rubyfoo

l think l had better call somebody
5:00 am
MollyL

My good thoughts and prayers are out for you, Ruby.
5:03 am
rubyfoo

l'mnot proud, but l sent a message to Nadia....
5:03 am
rubyfoo

She has her own probles, but she calls me her little grandma
5:17 am
MollyL

I'm glad you have someone to call. That is a comfort for you.

5:58 am
granadan

long time no see! xxx
5:59 am
rubyfoo

Is it grey there? lt's less cold here and the flowers continue to open, more each day, but no sunshne
6:00 am
rubyfoo

lf l ever cimplain about being to hot, you can hire soimeone to shoot me!
6:00 am
granadan

Miserable. Grey days, chilly nights. I'm hoping we've seen the last of the snow, but the weather people keep muttering.
6:00 am
rubyfoo

sorryfor typos, but l'l pretty dopy this morning
6:01 am
granadan

Some of my best words were typos ;)
6:03 am
rubyfoo

Everyone here complains about this weather. There are often days, so ckoudy, that the lake is invisible.
6:04 am
granadan

You are in such a beautiful area. Must be worse to lose the view to clouds
6:06 am
granadan

Toddler appeared waving a book. Best I go read to her. Back in about 3 minutes when she decides to go bash a brother...
6:07 am
rubyfoo

Usually, even sitting on y "throne" (the countess of Veyrier LOL), l have a beautiful view of the lake
6:07 am
rubyfoo

What are the ges f the kids?
6:07 am
rubyfoo

ages of*
6:09 am
granadan

nearly 3, 9, 13, 14, 20. She decided standing on the back om my chair and shrieking in my ear is more fun.
6:09 am
granadan

Toddlers and teens. Didnt think that through did i?
6:09 am
rubyfoo

cute?
6:10 am
rubyfoo

Do the teens help with the tinies?
6:11 am
granadan

Seriously cute. She has downs syndrome, and is the happiest little person I ever met. its like living with a tiny whirlwind, dipped in a sunbeam, wrapped in a cuddle
6:11 am
granadan

Yes, the boys love her. Eldest has left home now, so its getting easier
6:14 am
rubyfoo

Do yu have animals, too? lt sounbds like a happy circus, chez vous!
6:15 am
granadan

We've just lost the last of the dogs. Over the years we've had quail, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, now down to goldfish.
6:16 am
granadan

This grid id huuuuge
6:17 am
rubyfoo

What started as 23 tiny goldfish ("feeders" in Miami)in the little pond we built, with a fountain in the middle, now has 100'sa fish, some a foot long.
6:18 am
granadan

Oh wow!
6:18 am
rubyfoo

l tried to feed them on Monday, th e firs tiume since the autumn, but they were still "sleeping" l hope, in the lud.
6:19 am
rubyfoo

mud*,+ many other typos!
6:21 am
granadan

Sorry, was looking up Annecy on the map again. Im coming down through Switzerland in July, but the other side, hoping the views are as good as they look on t'interweb
6:21 am
rubyfoo

l would love to have other animals, butt l can barely manage these two big dogs. Chickens would be fun for the dogs (butnd&ngerous for the birds). l can imagine Rufie binging them into the house
6:22 am
granadan

Haha! Ill bet.
6:22 am
rubyfoo

Veyrier du Lac is an hour South of Geneva
6:23 am
rubyfoo

l'l sure he wouldn't mean to harm them (??) but they'd be frightened to death.
6:23 am
granadan

Looks wonderful. Im riding down to Venice, then ferry to Greece and on to Crete
6:23 am
rubyfoo

Now and then a bird flies into the house and the two dogs have a great time
6:23 am
rubyfoo

What a great trip!
6:24 am
granadan

Cant wait. Its so cold here. Two rampaging dogs playing with chickens doesnt sound ideal ive got to agree bless them x
6:25 am
rubyfoo

l think it would be fun for them, just noe for the chickens.
6:26 am
rubyfoo

l no longr travel, but did a lot before, both for work and for fun, so l don't mind staying in one spot
6:31 am
rubyfoo

Didn't name male chickens or quail for obvious reasons, but yes, everything else. Ah, I treated myself to another motorbike last year, so that's how I'm heading across country now. Sorry, nipping in and out round kids etc x

Yet another real word that Babble doesn't know...stot/stots! Really surprised by that!

Morning all
7:56 am

morning, Natasha
8:05 am
Trifioso

hello all
8:05 am
Trifioso

I am spending a thrilling four class periods guarding the girls room today, during state testing. On the plus side - getting paid to babble!
8:09 am
ChampFit

I've done that as a volunteer before. Mind-numbing! Thank goodness for babble.
8:10 am
Trifioso

seriously
8:10 am
Trifioso

these poor kids. State mandated standardized testing is the absolute WORST
8:10 am
Trifioso

I have never seen it used as anything but a real estate indicator
8:11 am
ChampFit

I always pooh-poohed it to my kids. There's no reason to stress over it. But things roll downhill, and they'd end up worrying anyway. Pain in the butt.
8:11 am
Trifioso

yuuuup
8:12 am
Scrabbler

Good day to all.
8:12 am
Trifioso

hello scrabbler!
8:12 am
ChampFit

good morning!
8:13 am
Scrabbler

Trif, 40% of local parents opt out of state testing for their kids. There is a huge movement here to opt out.
8:13 am
Scrabbler

I am off today and working FRi because of my on-call weekend.
8:13 am
ChampFit

I need to check, but my guess is it's much less in Texas. I only know of one person that opted out, personally.
8:16 am
ChampFit

Have come to a standstill with 60 left. Going to list...
8:17 am
Trifioso

I don't know that they CAN do that here - if they don't pass the 10th grade test, they cannot graduate.
8:18 am
Scrabbler

That is different. Here the tests are used to assess proficiency levels in ELA and Math, but there are no requirements tied in to graduation.
8:18 am
ChampFit

I haven't checked into it enough to say.
8:19 am
Trifioso

the "secret" of course, is that the 10th grade MCAS is easier than the 8th grade one. The state is certainly not interested in funding another year of education
8:20 am
Scrabbler

The proficiency rates are dismally low in the city schools, more so by 8th grade. It is very sad that more kids are not retained. Why move kids along that are illiterate?
8:21 am
Trifioso

the line we get is that it hurts them socially. please.
8:21 am
Trifioso

the biggest disservice tis the idea that all kids that are the same age know the same things. grouping grades by age is so stupid
8:21 am
Scrabbler

Yes, please be real.
8:22 am
Scrabbler

Agreed.
8:22 am
Trifioso

but there's me, trying to upend the system again....
8:23 am
Scrabbler

My friend is a college professor and laments the inadeqaute writing/spelling skills of her students.
8:24 am
Trifioso

no one can read cursive anymore either.
8:24 am
NatashaW

Amen to that Scrabbler. They've stopped reading books. Even my kid, who's an excellent writer and speller, refuses to read anything longer than a Wikipedia article. Google is making us stoopid.
8:25 am
Trifioso

what worries me a lot more ( a LOT more) is that lack of cultural competency I am seeing. Regardless of religion, the Garden of Eden is the creation myth of our culture. The fact that NONE of the seventh grade students could recount it this year bothered me greatly.
8:25 am
Scrabbler

Or write it. We have kids 12 and older complete surveys at their yearly visits, then sign them. Kids tell me that they don't know how to do their signature.
8:26 am
NatashaW

Perhaps each generation laments the losses but I struggle with the fact that everything I truly care about (classical music, literature, etc) looks to be going the way of the dodo.
8:26 am
Scrabbler

It is very worrisome, Natasha and Trif. Kids have no realistic view of work ethic and excellence.
8:26 am
Trifioso

Every year the thing we cannot talk about, because kids have no cultural reference for them, grows. Record players, tv antennas, sleds, analog clocks, cursive, etc. September 11th is as relevant to them as Lincoln's assassination is to us.
8:27 am
Scrabbler

Maybe 20% of kids are hard-working, ambitious, responsible.
8:27 am
Scrabbler

Parents do not prepare their kids for adulthood anymore.
8:29 am
Scrabbler

The Dunning-Kruger Effect is rampant because kids no longer understand what excellence is. The bar is set too low for kids.
8:29 am
smoove

Is anyone getting a warning in their URL that this isn't a secure site?
8:30 am
Scrabbler

It says "not secure" in my bar. It doesn't bother me on this site.
8:30 am
Trifioso

see: every kid gets a ribbon for details
8:31 am
smoove

Well, what exactly does it mean? Can someone hack into my computer?
8:31 am
Scrabbler

Or trophies for being on a team. For just participating.
8:31 am
Scrabbler

smoove, do you have a firewall?
8:31 am
smoove

I suspect I do.
8:32 am
NatashaW

"not secure" usually means any info you post could be seen by others, potentially. So don't post your SS# or credit cards on Babble chat :-)
8:33 am
Trifioso

oooh! an opportunity! I still know mr hates SS# - anyone want it?
8:33 am
smoove

Haha...thanks all.
8:33 am
NatashaW

Often I get those warnings about sites that I know are perfectly safe... sometimes the great URL gods don't recognize the site's certificate.
8:33 am
Scrabbler

Trif, is he still making your life difficult?
8:35 am
Trifioso

hes taking me back to court AGAIN on april 20th to attempt to lower my child support for the 3rd time this year. His net worth is $1.6M. I am a paraprofessional in a low income public school. So, uh, yeah.
8:35 am
Trifioso

I get PTSD walking into the court building. Seriously.
8:35 am
Scrabbler

Oh, no. ((Trif))
8:36 am
NatashaW

Wow. I'm amazed the courts allow that, it seems abusive.
8:37 am
NatashaW

scratch "seems" - is.
8:38 am
Trifioso

I'm over it. My kids know who "supports" them
8:38 am
Scrabbler

My mother called me at 3am frantic because the power went out. She was crying and so scared.
8:38 am
Trifioso

oh no scrabbler! Poor thing
8:38 am
Trifioso

brb - student needs me
8:39 am
Scrabbler

She sleeps in her chair lift chair and was reclined. And she feared that the sump would overflow because the pump couldn't work. She wanted me to drive up--45 minutes away. I had to talk her down. My brother lives with her.
8:45 am
72 Temple Owl

That's hard.
8:47 am
Scrabbler

She already has anxiety so this set her off. I talked to her for 20 minutes and reassured her.
8:49 am

Oh no...that is sad and frustrating, Scrabs
8:49 am
car.eeyore

Good morning everyone
8:50 am
Scrabbler

Hi Car. She was worried about food in the fridge and freezer...she just feared a prolonged outage and, with no storms here, I told her that the problem would likely be fixed readily, and what we could do if it wasn't.
8:51 am
car.eeyore

Only you can be so level headed at that hour. Bless you
8:53 am
