12:24 am
TraderKate

TY Lickety :D
12:25 am
TraderKate

should be nan, but it's an "un" :/
12:26 am
cybernan

not when you are sitting with a screaming child trying to comb them out of her hair
12:26 am
TraderKate

and when you get it de ta6, it still won't let you re ta6 it...
12:28 am
cybernan

right even though it does happen
12:28 am
TraderKate

mother kept me in braids pulled so tight, my eyebrows were almost to forehead
12:28 am
cybernan

lol
12:28 am
TraderKate

again, and again, and again nan :)
12:29 am
Nef

My one aunt used to say her slanted eyes were due to her braids being braided way too tight also!
12:30 am
TraderKate

LOL Nef... it's true!
12:31 am
cybernan

crash time for me -- good night everyone
12:31 am
TraderKate

hagn nan
12:31 am
Nef

(she never explained how her other sister - who also had braids - didn't get slanted eyes, however)
12:32 am
TraderKate

the finer the hair, the tighter the braids of torture :/
12:34 am
TraderKate

my relatives later joked that they didn't thnk I could blink when braids in....probably true
12:34 am
Nef

Good thing I never had longhair then! My hair is "difficult" fine!
12:35 am
rururocks

did the sirens go off?
12:35 am
TraderKate

Are we all in the PB ruru?
12:36 am
Nef

Which ones & where, ruru?
12:36 am
rururocks

don't sirens go off for hair braids?
12:36 am
TraderKate

Oh Gaaaawd! you got us! LMAO
12:37 am
Nef

UGH! Fooled me again!
12:38 am

12:41 am
Nef

12:41 am
TraderKate

sorry, ruru... I was nose first in my dinner plait.
12:42 am
rururocks

12:43 am

12:44 am
rururocks

12:44 am
TraderKate

I will not strand for misquotes, you forgot the "sweet" part ;)
12:45 am
rururocks

I was trying to get more bangs for my bucks
12:46 am
TraderKate

LOL, no goose liver, but the wine is the crowning glory.
12:46 am
TraderKate

You are such a cut-up...
12:47 am
rururocks

gosh the chat is moving at a fast clip
12:48 am
TraderKate

GROAAAAAAAAAAN.... cut it short then?
12:48 am
TraderKate

ruru is such a tease....
12:48 am
Nef

And with that last cut; I need to get to bed.
12:49 am
rururocks

I love these little snip -its of humor
12:50 am
TraderKate

Awwwww we scared Nef off! :(
so looooooong Nef will you back comb tomorrow?
12:50 am
TraderKate

I mean come back :(
12:52 am
rururocks

this is nearly shear madness
12:54 am
TraderKate

If we trim it back a bit; maybe shave a little off the edges, we won't scare anyone else off.
12:55 am
SueMagee

Good show - you could be on the Edinburgh fringe.
12:55 am
TraderKate

I should blow for a bit as well. My dinner really is getting cold. The gravy is going to gel.
12:56 am
TraderKate

Hi Sue :D :D :D
12:57 am
TraderKate

You guys could curl up and colour for a while.
12:57 am
SueMagee

:D
12:59 am
TraderKate

I see ruru is not going to upbraid me (phew)!
laters....
1:02 am
rururocks

All these extensions are difficult to follow
1:04 am
TraderKate

you're wigging me out!
1:05 am
rururocks

On toupee of all that?
1:05 am
TraderKate

Ues, it could be permanent
1:07 am
rururocks

We could all use moluck
1:07 am
TraderKate

The conversation is difficult to follow, all the extensions you mentiones and all the abruptly split ends
1:08 am
SueMagee

Perhaps we need a comb over?
1:08 am
TraderKate

moluck needed to choose the new shag carpet.
1:10 am
TraderKate

I like your style Sue
1:10 am

Hello Kate
1:37 am
TraderKate

I understand you are finally getting a proper spring???
1:38 am
worzel

Well we've had two or three days of warm weather but it's now back to the seasonal norm.
1:39 am
TraderKate

It;s definitely late, but surely well in its way now :)
1:40 am
TraderKate

You've got daffodils - we've barely got to the first of the crocuses.
1:41 am
worzel

Some of our plants seem to grow whatever the weather - daffodils, snowdrops - no matter what the weather. Then there are those that get a little "lost in time" because the weather doesn't do what the plant is used to
1:42 am
TraderKate

Just spied some snowdrops up here yesterday - not in bloom, but buds at least!
1:42 am
TraderKate

(our forsuthia is very confused though...)
1:44 am
TraderKate

Snowdrops here tend to come out in January and the daffs around about the end of Feb until late March and both have been pretty much on time this year although the snowdrops didn't last as long as usual because we didn't have a very cold winter here
1:45 am
TraderKate

Ours was a misery starting very early (November) then Dec/Jan 6 solid weeks of -20 - brutal :(
1:46 am
worzel

We're fortunate in the UK that we are all so near to the coast and get the breezes that keep the severe weather to once every 8 to 10 years. It's pathetic over here though - one snowflake and the whole pathetic country comes to a standstill
1:46 am
TraderKate

daffys have poked up and some in sunny spots have set buds, another week for colour. No sign of any tulips yet not even the really early K ones (mongolian roigin)
1:47 am
TraderKate

In al fairness, it was miserable - especially up north - like Birmingham...and poor Scotland. Too true about the snow, but you just aren't set up for it.
1:49 am
worzel

I don't know that it's just that though. We are, geographically, set up for damp weather yet the whole country moans and moans about it and I'm like "Go and live in Greece then if you don't like it" haha. I don't care what the weather does, weather does it's thing and that's that
1:50 am
zoozzoom

I would leave now but it is a case of not being able to afford to just get up and go.
1:51 am

And I admit to moaning all the time about the cold damp UK weather.

worzel

I guess I'm just a product of the country - I love our weather - it keeps me on my toes! Snows in May, heatwaves in November - it's a riot lol
1:53 am
worzel

What I actually object to is the Met Office. Generally they aren't able to predict more than two days in advance acurately, yet they go on air and produce 10 day forecasts. I learnt to ignore the Met Office decades ago
1:56 am
worzel

Anyway I have to dash off now - I have some officials to go and give a good bollocking to - Worzy is NOT a happy bunny this morning haha! Anyways, leaving a MASSIVE hug in chog for Mum (Grannyrose) to find and see you all soon xx *poof*

They're not much better for my area when it comes to predictions - iy's a tricky area with lots of moving patys - I'm right on The Great Lakes, near Niagara Falls.

This game has taken over my life...instead of working on fundraising proposals I'm babbling and learning obscure terms for mosquitos and leaf margin shapes.
1:45 pm

or yesterday's gem, "The fruiting body of a rust fungus."
1:45 pm
mattygroves

Haa! Yeah, this will do that. I stopped playing for ages because I became so obsessed with finishing it was truly taking over my life. Now I worry less about finishing and more about having fun. In 15 minutes I shall stop to watch Only Connect and University Challenge (British high brow game shows)
1:45 pm
mattygroves

Haaaa!
1:46 pm
NatashaW

maybe that's a good strategy (i.e. make one pass and leave the rest for later or never)
1:46 pm
mattygroves

My mum used to do the New York Times crossword puzzle and always wanted to use ETUI in a sentence - but was most disappointed when she discovered it wasn't pronounced 'e-t-u-ee'
1:46 pm
NatashaW

lol. I have my etuis and et4,4s rock solid.
1:47 pm
NatashaW

but this game has another level of obscure terminology
1:47 pm
NatashaW

etui, Bruite?
1:47 pm
mattygroves

Oh dear lord, yes. And it allows very rude words. Ha, yes Natasha! ;)
1:48 pm
mattygroves

My daughter, when she was small (well, 10 or 11), made (with help from a friend) an etui for my mum with ETUI embroidered on it so mum could say her granddaughter made her an etui, thus she could use it in conversation
1:52 pm
NatashaW

haha just to watch people's faces as they debated whether or not to ask, 'What in heck is that?"
1:53 pm
NatashaW

have fun watching your shows. They sound entertaining!
1:53 pm
mattygroves

Exactly. I will! They're worth an hour (half an hour each) of your life - it won't change your life, but they can make you feel stupid. University Challenge is the British version of (I think) College Bowl or some such?
1:54 pm

Trying to figure out what the clue position looks like
7:20 pm
Nef

Sorry, I was going to ask for some clues, but then I found the top row E and also the second row, second column 3rd E and I didn't need help again! (At least not then, anyway)I have 65 words left to find; but lots of time! :-)
7:21 pm

Hi Folks - back from the OR Shakespeare festival. Grand time.
7:21 pm
rururocks

On a scale of ten ori?
7:22 pm
origami

I'd give it an 8. Henry V was fantastic!!
7:22 pm
Nef

Hi ru. The clue postion is probably sitting back, reading a book or exploring the internet; nice cup of tea (or glass of wine for those that drink) and relaxing while watching the fireworks here -- and gloating! ;-)
7:23 pm
rururocks

Was that the Henry who had his wives headless?
7:23 pm
Nef

Sounds nice origami!
7:23 pm
Nef

How long was the festival?
7:24 pm
HarryHood

7:24 pm

Nope. He was one of the ones that invaded France. The play is very ambiguous about war.
7:24 pm
rururocks

Ah
7:24 pm

7:24 pm

origami

No, maybe next year.
7:28 pm

7:31 pm
origami

ru, you were right about the food - mediocre in Ashland. Did have a good meal at Sesame Asian Kitchen and the tapas restaurant.
7:32 pm
Nef

I love Shakespeare; I've seen several plays here at the Guthrie Theater over the past several years. But now I've seen some ads for a Shakespeare Festival down in Winona (a college town about 90 - 100 miles south of here on the Mississippi River when my daughter went to college & I'm thinking that the 2 of us might go there to see a couple of plays there too.
7:34 pm
Nef

(Hubby went with me to see the ones at the Guthrie; he wasn't bored (like he thought he would be) but he wasn't wildly enthusiastic about going either.
7:35 pm
HarryHood

32 to go. I have hit the wall.
7:35 pm
origami

The production of Othello was really interesting. Not really modernized, but modern things were interjected here and there to accent humor. Well done.
7:36 pm
rururocks

Did u go to Elements? Isn’t that the tapas plaace?
7:38 pm

7:57 pm

8:33 pm
TraderKate

Too bad you didn't see Richard III, it was certainly a winter of discontent ;)
Glad you enjoyed the plays!
8:36 pm
origami

It wasn't playing. But I might have passed. It is soooo depressing :-)
8:37 pm

YAY. phandmd!! WTG!!
10:12 pm
TraderKate

10:18 pm
Nef

No, Kate (I'm distracted by a TV show; it's about some elderly people (in a home for retired actors) trying to put on Shakespeares' "Mid-Summers' Night Play & the poor young guys who are trying to direct it!)
10:18 pm
Nef

I have 6 to go; so I will finish tonight though! :-)
10:19 pm
TraderKate

:) Caryy on. ST on here
10:20 pm
TraderKate

Sounds like a good show - is it something on Netflix?
10:23 pm
Nef

No, it's on PBS! And it's almost over. It's so interesting because one of the women has Alzheimers, one woman ggot deathly ill the week before the performance; 1 woman still had perfect pitch in her 90's; and the back stories are incredible!
10:24 pm
hurshy

fiction or 'reality'?
10:25 pm
Nef

reality; the name of it is "Still Dreaming", it was produced in 2014. and it's now over.
10:25 pm
TraderKate

Oh! I think we are on different PBS...title?
10:25 pm
Nef

So now, back to my last 6 words! :-)
10:26 pm
TraderKate

I didn't see that in my PBS lineup. Possible I missed it. will keep an eye out.
10:27 pm
Nef

Sorry, Kate; here in MN it's called TPT; but PBS stations play different things across the country too.
10:28 pm
Nef

They just said more info can be found at StillDreamingMovie.com
10:28 pm
TraderKate

Yes... up here I get PBS Buffalo over the air. Some of our cable companies run Buffalo, others use the Boston feed. So, yes not always the same. I hope mine picks it up!
10:28 pm
TraderKate

TY, will look for it later
10:29 pm
Nef

It says it will be broadcast on PBS across the US this month
10:30 pm
TraderKate

WOOOOT! I will watch for it then; sounds really good :)
10:32 pm
Nef

I think you'll like it; do watch the preview at that site too
10:35 pm
Nef

Finally got that upper left last R (the re8) 4 left
10:36 pm
TraderKate

That was a bit of a tough fishie.
10:38 pm

10:39 pm
TraderKate

LOL, distracted time doesn't count!
10:45 pm
Nef

Finally! Fireworks!
10:46 pm
TraderKate

10:48 pm
Nef

10:48 pm
TraderKate

Pretty sure that's an unwritten law of Babble.
10:50 pm
TraderKate

since you had the 6, likely you mistyped the first try?
10:50 pm
Nef

Well, the funniest part is I had the the 6/21 following it too!
10:50 pm
TraderKate

I can hear yours grinding from here ;)
10:51 pm
Nef

10:51 pm
TraderKate

11:35 pm
cosdem

11:36 pm
Nef

It's called nourishment; at this time; hunger may not be something you feel, but your body needs food and fluids.
11:36 pm
cosdem

my husbands life could be in my hands.
11:36 pm
Nef

:-(
11:37 pm
TraderKate

formality, nothing more. stay in the here and now
11:37 pm
Nef

Have you 2 ever talked about what you want?
11:37 pm
cosdem

yes but he was always drunk
11:37 pm
cosdem

but he was lucid today.. said he was full code... so he wants machines etc
11:37 pm
cosdem

his mom and i agreed to respect that
11:37 pm
Nef

wow.
11:38 pm
Nef

remind him of that in the future.
11:38 pm
TraderKate

so he's not giving up - he's fighting
11:38 pm
cosdem

11:38 pm
cosdem

he refused help
11:39 pm
cosdem

he missed some but.. hey
11:39 pm
Nef

Great! (nurses love guys who use urinals instead of the bed linen! ;-)
11:40 pm
TraderKate

:D good for him. pride can be a great motivator
11:40 pm
cosdem

nurses told him to use the bed. he refused
11:40 pm
Nef

Good for him!
11:41 pm
cosdem

theres slight hope. but im still bleep terrified
11:41 pm
Nef

(I never would have told him to go in the bed; that's uncomfortable for the patient & more work for the nurse!
11:42 pm
cosdem

that was in the renal unit.. they move dhim to the rehab unit tho and theyre much nicer there
11:43 pm
cosdem

his doctors are both women. which i like.. i prefer female doctors. idk if that sexist but i think they are nicer.. they keep saying things like " When he goes home..... when hes discharged...." etc
11:43 pm
Nef

So was he lucid all day long today?
11:44 pm
cosdem

not 100% he also had UTI wihch caused fever .. but hes more lucid than yesterday o.. we could talk for a hour . he knew where he was and stuff
11:44 pm
cosdem

he said he loved me. so thats what i needed for tonight.
11:45 pm
TraderKate

<3
11:45 pm
Nef

:-) that is indeed what you needed tonight
11:45 pm
TraderKate

sounds to me like huge improvement in 48 hours
11:45 pm
cosdem

omg he said "ugh i look like a heroin addict with all these f..kig needles in me. I ned to stop drinkin"
11:46 pm
cosdem

then he demanded a smoothie. so we got him one
11:46 pm
Nef

that's easy to say but harder to do (according to my brother)
11:46 pm
cosdem

yep which is why hes gonna stay with his mom after the hospital
11:47 pm
Nef

for how long, cos?
11:47 pm
cosdem

idk.. it was my idea
11:47 pm
cosdem

too many bad infleuences.. our neighbirs his co workers
11:48 pm
Nef

what does his mom think?
11:48 pm
TraderKate

will he be released from rehab wing to real world, or to an off site rehab (live in)?
11:48 pm
cosdem

i work 10-12 hours a day i;c ant babysit him. his mom agreed
11:48 pm
cosdem

idk kate.. we will see in a few days i guess
11:49 pm
cosdem

although I have FMLA now but im gonna use that time to renovate the house to make it clean and saniztzied for him.
11:49 pm
cosdem

im always welcome at hsi moms house.. she loves me.. she keeps texting me nonstop telling me im her son always
11:49 pm
TraderKate

okay. sounds positive... stay in the present and dont' catastrophise... one hour, one day...
11:50 pm
cosdem

my problem is i always thikn about what about tomorrow
11:50 pm
Nef

it would be good if he could go to some sort of place wher he can completely dry out and learn how to be sober.
What does he do, cos?
11:50 pm
cosdem

but it isnt abotu me isnt it.. it s about him
11:51 pm
TraderKate

yes. stop it. just for now. it is crazy-making.
11:51 pm
cosdem

hes a dispatcher at towing place. his co workers keep texting me telling me they wull try to be abetter friend and theyre sorry
11:52 pm
Nef

I always think that that type of thinking is because a person needs to get sleep & take care of themselves too
11:52 pm
rururocks

coming in late on this.. what's the prognosis?
11:53 pm
TraderKate


It is about you too, cos.
11:53 pm
cosdem

this is the third time ive gone thru this but the worst this time
11:54 pm
cosdem

idk how much more of this i can take
11:55 pm
Nef

cos, like I told you in my message; my brother said that both of you will need to be sober; but HE is the one who has to decide every day to stay that way.
11:56 pm
cosdem

one more drop hes gone.
11:56 pm
cosdem

im scared of his lack of willpower
11:57 pm
Nef

And he won't remember that.
11:57 pm
TraderKate

antabuse a possibility?
11:58 pm
cosdem

good idea
11:58 pm
cosdem

wait i think hes on it now
11:58 pm
cosdem

ill ask tomorow
11:58 pm
Nef

There's a good reason that the AA motto is "one dayat a time"
11:58 pm
TraderKate

he wtill has to decide to take it every day. and may be contraindicated for some reason.
11:59 pm
cosdem

i just want him next to me on the couch right now screaming at the dogs to shut up
11:59 pm
Nef

true, Kate.
