Hiya Sprite! How are you and your beloved?
1:37 am
sprite

pretty okay. Did a lot of work this weekend, got rid of a new load of stuff. Sometimes cleaning out closets is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster though. We are a bit wobbly, so to speak. How are you doing, all alone?
1:38 am
Kamanjah

Bored!
1:38 am
Kamanjah

O
1:39 am
Kamanjah

I'm ok. just anxious for hubs to be home again
1:39 am
sprite

aw! No stuff you can only do when all by yourself?
1:39 am
sprite

when is he due back?
1:39 am
Kamanjah

I've been keeping really busy prepping herbs, but I just have to sit down after an hour or so - it's just been so hot!
1:40 am
Kamanjah

I don't know if it's Tues or Weds - guess he fell asleep on the couch again...and didn't call tonight. He gets bored over there too.
1:40 am
sprite

good job on the herbs. And on resting. This kind of heat saps one of all energy.
1:41 am
Kamanjah

I harvested purple basil, spicy globe basil and sage today, now it's all cleaned and on racks to dry.
1:41 am
sprite

ohhhhhh sage! God I LOVE the smell of sage.
1:42 am
sprite

how do you prep them? And for what? Cooking, healing?
1:42 am
Kamanjah

Me too! And I've been cleaning lavender off the stems. Most comes off easily, but I'm a little OCD when it comes to "waste not, want not" lol
1:42 am
Kamanjah

Today was prep for cooking.
1:43 am
Kamanjah

I still have some tinctures to decant, and a couple of oils for salve.
1:43 am
sprite

awesome. Might ask you for pointers somewhere in the future, when I will have room and time for a project like that.
1:44 am
Kamanjah

I can do this when he's here...but it is easier to not have to adhere to any schedule with finishing up and having things out of the way.
1:44 am
sprite

OCD, lol, ikr? I have this eating disorder and am going to OA meetings, where I see time and again that all addicted people are OCD in some way.
1:45 am
Kamanjah

At least you are being proactive and aren't in denial, good for you!!
1:47 am
sprite

working hard, one day at a time, to learn to live with it and get past the destructive behaviour at least, lol. 'Our' addiction is extra hard, because you can stay sober and clean from alcohol or narcotics, but not from food. It is a balancing act every day, every meal.
1:50 am
Kamanjah

My weight has bounced around over the years, but it was health issues, not eating issues. Well, part was eating stuff my body didn't like, but once I stopped sugar and gluten, I've stayed within 2 pounds of where I want to be. But I did get a tad shorter with age, lol! I used to be 5'6" when I was younger, now I can stretch to 5'4" if I really try.
1:51 am
Kamanjah

What you're doing is amazing!
1:51 am
sprite

struggling with health is just as tough. Glad you found out which stuff to stay away from.
1:53 am
sprite

lol true! I am getting shorter too. It runs in our family to really shorten in our old age.
1:53 am
Kamanjah

It's still so tempting to eat sourdough bread! I love it! But it makes me pay later, and it's not worth the price. And hubby loves his bread, so I've gotten used to seeing it and ignoring it. But smelling freshly toasted...omg, it's so hard!
1:55 am
sprite

so frustrating. Not at all fun to have to forego stuff we really love, just to stay healthy. But yeah, worth it.
1:55 am
Kamanjah

My ancestors are Welsh and Swiss - all the women have gotten shorter - I'm afraid of osteoporosis - my mom had it, but made diet changes that resoved it. I need a new scan - already hit osteopenia, am hoping I've done right by my bones.
1:56 am
sprite

do you know which diet changes your mom made? Maybe they can help you too?
1:56 am
Kamanjah

We do what we have to...I know I'm not young anymore!
1:58 am
sprite

I am at that age when you are too old to be young and too young to be old, lol.
1:58 am
Kamanjah

One was stopping the low fat stuff, so I've been full fat for milk, and have always used butter. She used margarine, and switched to butter. Calcium and magnesium intake is impt
1:59 am
Kamanjah

Well, if the US hadn
1:59 am
Kamanjah

had not raised the retirement age for my birth year, I would be official!
1:59 am
sprite

I have to do the same, because of my chronic vitamine D shortage. Full yoghurt and butter.
2:00 am
Kamanjah

Doc has me on 10,000IU of D a day. I go back in a couple of weeks, and hope he has the nutrition test, if not, will go to the doc here in town that does it. No insurance covers it, darn! But it's worth knowing where I am, cuz I'm definitely not gettin' any younger!
2:01 am
sprite

same has happened here. We used to be able to stop working at 65, and if you were willing to have a little less money, you could stop a few years earlier even. My beloved is 61, and in stead of working less, he has to stay working until 67 now.
2:02 am
Kamanjah

That sucks. Mine was run out of his job because of his PD - boy was that a major stressor. He's 63, and had enough years in that retiring early only took a couple of bucks a month off of his county retirement, so that worked out really well.
2:04 am
sprite

I will be so intensely grateful once we are rid of this house and the mortgage. We need to live simpler, less expensive lives and hopefully my beloved will be able to cut his hours then. I want him to become happy and energetic again.
2:05 am
Kamanjah

Have I chatted with you since he smiled? The DBS has changed enough in his brain that his face is showing expressions!
2:05 am
sprite

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh wow! Omg that is so great, Kam!
2:05 am
Kamanjah

I hope you two get that worked out - we are so lucky our house is paid off!
2:07 am
sprite

after babble, I am gonna fill up some more boxes with stuff to get rid of. We try to do a bit every day. And once Tim is in Scotland, we will put our house on the market and take it from there.
2:07 am
Kamanjah

YAYAYAY!! That smile meant the world to me, so exciting! He's still struggling a bit to get everything fine tuned, but it has only been 8 1/2 weeks. He actually has little dimples when he cracks a smile! And his eyes twinkle! I can finally SEE the man behind that PD mask
2:08 am
sprite

that is wonderful. I am so so happy for the both of you.

I hope the market is good for you. It's so hard to get rid of stuff - I'm trying too. I have boxes that need to go...we want to have a yard sale in the fall, and then will just donate the rest.
2:09 am
sprite

the house market here right now is crazy, and in the favor of sellers. That is why I want to do it now, and not wait another year.
2:11 am
Kamanjah

Good timing, then!
2:11 am
sprite

most of what we get rid of goes to the thrift store here. Some of the children's stuff goes to neighbours with kids. And the rest is garbage.
2:13 am
Kamanjah

We now have 2 outdoor areas that are completely usable! He cleaned up all his junk, so we can eat outside again if it's cool enough! Looks great!
2:14 am
sprite

that is so nice :) Feels good too, doesn't it, getting rid of surplus stuff. Louise Hay calls it 'cleaning the closets of your mind' and I find that is true.
2:15 am
Kamanjah

Oh yeah! He needs to make a dump run though - my work area outside is where he literally dumped 3 dead tarps, grrr! I tried to roll them up to get them in big trash bags, but they're too big. Need his truck, that messy stuff is NOT going in the back of my car!
2:15 am
sprite

had this emotional thing though... I found my baby booklet, with pictures but also with all kind of data on my first few years. One page is for what the baby likes to eat...
first year: orange and Liga cookies.
second year: potatoes, meat and veggies
third year it said: 'You do not like eating at all. You will only eat yoghurt.'
2:16 am
Kamanjah

When my mom passed, I found mine.
2:16 am
sprite

made me so sad, to see in black and white that my eating issues were triggered that early in life. All because of the abuse and fighting at home.
2:17 am
Kamanjah

I'm so sorry. {{Sprite}}
2:18 am
sprite

thanks hun. Yeah, I was sad. But the good thing is, in stead of pushing away the sad feeling and ignore it and then go on to have a big eating binge, I was able to feel compassion for the child I was and allow myself to be sad for a little while. And then to move on, because I am an adult now (most of the time) and I am able to make my own choices.
2:19 am
Kamanjah

Good for you <3
2:19 am
sprite

:D We live and learn, Kam, live and learn. All the time. And we play babble, for the game and for catching up with our babble friends :)
2:20 am
Kamanjah

I still have a lot of Mom's stuff to finish up.
2:20 am
sprite

also not an easy thing, I think, going through parents' stuff and deciding what has to go
2:21 am
Kamanjah

I was laughing about some convo on here the other night and hubby asked me what on earth I was doing. I told him I was chatting with babble friends! He has several Facebook friends who have the same historical interests he has, so he sort of understands.
2:22 am
sprite

it was nice to have him visit here for a few minutes :D
2:22 am
Kamanjah

NO! It's not. My brother took it over after I had all the authorizations I needed, then he messed it all up. Then he up and died on me and I haven't figured out what he did. I think I have to get an attorney to fix it. I'm scared of that whole mess.
2:23 am
sprite

omg Kam, that is awful. What a mess. I think you might do yourself a favor by enlisting the help of an attorney. Costs some money but buys you peace of mind.
2:25 am
Kamanjah

For sure. The attorneys that wrote her trust wanted me to sign some Christian agreement back before my brother took it over. They creeped me out.
2:26 am
sprite

that is scary :(
2:26 am
Kamanjah

Hubs and I need to get with an atty too, so our assets are protected, so I guess I should get on that!
2:27 am
sprite

for me, that kind of thing terrifies me. It is like my brain simply stops working when I try to work it out. And my energy goes down the drain in a hurry too.
2:28 am
Kamanjah

I know, it is hard. No one wants to think about "the end."
2:29 am
sprite

that is not the part that scares me, tbh. It is the fear I have for money and law issues. Ever since my burnout, my brain seems to have lost its capacity to deal with stuff like that.
2:30 am
Kamanjah

Understood. My brain injury did it to me. I hit a wall all the time
2:31 am
sprite

yeah, I know the feeling. Not easy at all. We are freakin' heroes :D
2:34 am
Kamanjah

Sometimes I wonder how I manage...if not for automatic payments, I would forget one or two! I think I have everything on auto-pay, all I have to do is make sure the money is there! I screwed up so badly after I hit my head, but years of work - and word games to make me think - helped.
2:36 am
sprite

word games are awesome to retrain the brain, for sure. I am struggling every month to pay the bills now. I am hoping that after selling the house, things will become less complicated and I can get the kind of routine going that you describe. That would be really good.
2:39 am
Kamanjah

I hope life gets less complicated for you. You're working so hard, you've earned it!
2:40 am
sprite

thank you :D From your fingertips to the Big Guy's ears!
2:42 am

fireflies. Time for me to get dressed and do some work. It was great chatting with you, Kam. A big *hug* for you.
To all, a blessed day and a peaceful night, and for rose an extra hug in chog!
2:43 am
Kamanjah

Good chatting with you too. I can't multitask like you can - I'm still muddling through the Rs. Have a great day! Big hugs!

not too bad but I shall never keep up with your brain power
3:41 am

Ha! My brain power is like a five watt light bulb. I do take many hours over the course of the day to finish grids :-)
3:42 am
little mim

I note the word 'finish' that is a word seldom used on my grids....
3:45 am
zoozzoom

Must admit I am still at the addicted stage of babble so try very hard to finish all the grids. As long as you are enjoy doing the puzzles, Little mim that is all that matters really. Finishing them is just a personal thing I aim for.
3:46 am
little mim

I am very pleased for you and well done for completing the puzzles - I do enjoy doing as much as I do, just wish my brain was better
3:50 am

Same here, Little mim. Some of the babblers here are amazingly quick at finding all the words in such little time!

I really can't tell; but from what I see; you need to go & be checked out at an ER because over the years I've "known" you online; something isn't right. And I don't think you would wait until the doctor can come & see you.
7:32 am

Call your helper & see if she can come now; this is important!

I know you hate to make a fuss; but *this* is important enough you need to.

7:34 am
kittychan

I went to the ER for the first time recently and asked if I had done so appropriately - so scared to be the moron showing up for a minor complaint. The nurse looked at me and said, "Oh yeah you belong here!" like it was incredible that I would think you only go when you have an appendage hanging by a thread.
7:38 am

Yeah; don't be stupid like me; I'm allergic to bees & hornets. Last year I got stung & thought it wasn't so bad (because I'd had the allergy shots & I wasn't reacting bad); but 2 hours later I needed an ambulance because of the severe reaction. (& I'm a nurse, for goodness sakes!)

Honey even better.

Love honey.

Re Stevia - it's often mixed with chemical sweeteners to mask its bitter aftertaste, despite it being 3 times sweeter than cane sugar. Stevia itself, is not a worry.

boatierra

Huh. I did not know that. Thanks!
11:26 pm
Jacula

It's the curse of profit-driven food companies trying to appeal to the masses, whilst still trying to appear to sell 'healthy' versions of foods.

boatierra

The stevia I get comes from a local producer. But that's not to say it doesn't have additives in it.

boatierra

I'll have to read the ingredient list when the puzzle is done.
11:28 pm
Jacula

I hope yours is pure, boatierra.
11:28 pm
boatierra

Me too!

Thanks again for the info.

I guess we've all finished the grid then and no one is is need of clues?
11:32 pm
boatierra

I got the fo 9. Clue for the other?
11:33 pm
Jacula

Fo10/98 is past tense of fo9.
11:33 pm
boatierra

Ya, got that one.
11:34 pm
Jacula

Any more clued needed?
11:34 pm

Pr9/66 consumed before

Ah, thank you.

Got it!
11:35 pm
bethn

Yay!
11:35 pm
Jacula

Any more?
11:35 pm
boatierra

Lol, almost halfway.
11:36 pm
Jacula

Your parakeet looks naughty, bethn. :)
11:39 pm
Jacula

Lots of green parakeets now living wild in London and the home counties. I hope they don't come our way because they'll strip my fruit trees and bushes. And, if they do that, I'll be happy to set my cats on them.

We've got non-native peach faced love birds in our area. They seem to be doing well.
11:40 pm
bethn

He was a cape parrot, a real character. Sadly, we lost him. I miss him terribly, but we couldnt commit to another bird that might outlive us
11:41 pm
Jacula

My mum had a pair of rose parakeets (love birds) some years ago, but now only the male is left, sharing a large cage with a budgie.
11:42 pm
bethn

They are probably quaker parrots, the s has several areas where they have wild flocks. Some states have banned them as pets but surprisingly, the wild obes dont respect the law :p
11:43 pm
Jacula

All Mum's birds are ones she's inherited lately. There was a canary a dear friend of ours left to her when she died, but that died not that long after its owner did, despite Mum's loving care.
11:43 pm
bethn

so i am now the proud owner of a cavalier king charles spaniel, and a 17 yr old feline with catzheimers
11:44 pm
bethn

That seems to happen. Some birds are so attached to their owners that they can’t be without them
11:44 pm
Jacula

I wish you luck with both, bethn! Spaniels, all breeds, are mad and a cat with old timer's is no fun an a lot of hard work.xx

Thanks for the help Jac and bethn.

Hooligan is a real lap dog, and Willow waits for him to leave so she can take his spot. Consequently they are both seriously affronted when there are chores to be done.
11:47 pm
Jacula

The canary NEVER sang when it was with it's original owner. It did sing twice when it was with my mum. Once, just after it arrived and saw all the birds outside in her garden as well as the ones in her house and once just before it expired.
11:47 pm
Jacula

EEK! I just said it's when I meant its.
11:48 pm
bethn

You’re very welcome boayierra. I have 49 left, and dont’t feel like going further on this one.
11:48 pm
Jacula

Pets! Such a pain! So much love and entertainment also.

I managed to pass the halfway mark at least.

That’s ok jac, no grammar police....
11:50 pm
Jacula

Oh, the grammer police ARE here, bethn. I'm their chief. :( LOL
11:50 pm
Jacula

See what I did there?
11:51 pm
Jacula

Now just wondering if I should stay for the flip or come back later.
11:52 pm
bethn

I try and get to @40 left. I left the game for a while, too much drama, and too much stuff going on at home but I’m back but don’t chat much. I give the occasional clue when no one else is available
11:53 pm
Jacula

I've only just started chatting and giving clues again. Mostly, I just complete the grid every day and say nothing.x

Hi...I have a question... can we share links Here? We had an historic 8" of rain just today in Columbia County, PA....and it isn't over. Lots of flooding... a lot of us are experiencing wacky weather.... but can we post video and photo links... have I got video for you.....
11:54 pm
jaianniah

And I left also... I was burned really bad here, but th8ngs are better now.... I do understand....
11:54 pm
Jacula

I think you need to employ tinyurl to best share links here, jai.
11:55 pm
jaianniah

Okay...
11:55 pm
Jacula

Or do the tiny url in your profile and ask us to look.

I saw Jac, I am more the grammar eye -roller . It makes me cringe but i try and chalk it up to typos- God knows I am a crappy typist on my ipad so I try not to be too judgy. ( although my children believe Judgy is my middle name : ))
11:57 pm
bethn

I think it depends on what time you play. Mostly I am silent. I havent chatted this much in years
11:57 pm
Jacula

That's better than me then, Bethn. I brought my kids up to be grammar nerds and now they correct ME, especially when I'm talking in real life. Of course, I still wipe the floor with them re written stuff. :D

But they've always had fun baiting Mum The Writer against Mum Who just talks in her Regional Accent.
