Hi sprite.. I was just joting that adult film stuff appears often here ;)
12:58 am
TraderKate

and clepto isnt a word ;)
1:00 am
sprite

hiya Kate :) Yes it is. And when it does, it tends to stay around a while, due to the way babble grids progress.
1:01 am
sprite

ks killed
1:01 am
TraderKate

there is an actual progression? Not just chance that we often have escapees from yesterday's grid???
1:01 am
TraderKate

LOL, there's a K? I'm in and out of the kitchen...
1:03 am
sprite

no, there is a kind of progression. I don't know the mathematics, but letter combinations repeat too often to be random. That is also how I often can predict an -ing grid :D
1:03 am
sprite

K? K? I have no idea what that thing is you are speaking of...
1:03 am
TraderKate

ah... I should pay closer attention ;)
How are you today?
1:05 am
sprite

mwah. Hardly slept and my body is telling me it is overstressed. Diarrhea and lots of pain. And a day of very hard work before me still.
But mentally and emotionally and spiritually, I am just wonderful!
And you? And how was your day?
1:08 am
TraderKate

Entirely uneventful sprite.. nothing exciting to report here. We had lovely blue skies and another day of 80+F think we hit 28C here.. rains come again tomorrow though.

VERy glad to hear of good spirits, sad to hear body will not get into line. Is there anything you can take off your plate today to lessen the load?
1:09 am
sprite

ugh too hot by half, Kate, and uneventful is good, in my opinion :)
1:10 am
sprite

nah, body will have to suffer, Rob and I both have our plates full today to get ready for the photographer. After Friday morning, it is time for recuperation.
1:11 am
TraderKate

I must make a note to crawl your wall and get caught up... I do remember plans to sell a house (or jsut move?) and talk of a caravan... brb, kitchening.. must keep stirring rice.
1:12 am
Kamanjah

*hugs* sprite, hope you get feeling better soon! The cold that has been kicking me for weeks woke up again today - and tomorrow is programming day again for hubby...have to make body work somehow!
1:12 am
sprite

sell house, move to caravan, build tiny house, move to tiny house. Is it in a nutshell :)
1:14 am
sprite

*hugs Kam* Good evening, dear one. So sorry to hear that. Darn cold! *healing vibes* to Kam... I know how it is to push your body as if nothing is the matter. Please take good care of yourself while doing so, and try to plan for rest and recovery time after?
1:14 am
Kamanjah

Are you really doing super tiny? Like less than 10x12 feet, um 3x4 meters?
1:16 am
sprite

no, normal tiny, that is: fitting on a flatbed that can be moved by a truck. Single floor. Maybe a loft, though.
1:16 am
Kamanjah

Here, 'tiny' is what doesn't require a permit, ie: 10'x12'
1:17 am
Kamanjah

We have friends who live the RV life, but park at her mom's property
1:18 am
sprite

we got a lot of info from american tiny houses, since it is much more common at your side of the pond. I think the term Tiny House can mean both :)
1:18 am
TraderKate

Hi Kam :)
The "booga-booga" needs to be done on that cold of yours...that's far too long to be sick....
programming day... it has been a while and forgot all about that... still fine tuning the computer? How has it been working on him? I hope that it has given him much more control and stability.
1:20 am
Kamanjah

Hey, Kate! I know! this cold is on its third rerun, never really bad, just energy sapping
1:21 am
TraderKate

Minor, persistent misery is the worst...
so, is the place all picked out for where you'd like to build your doll house sprite?
1:21 am
Kamanjah

He has his personal electronics under pretty good control, and has been able to cut meds more than he thought. He's doing quite well, and has energy to do multiple things every day. I'm a bit jealous! I want a fix for my health too!
1:22 am
sprite

still working on that, Kate, we get to 'defend' our first choice at the end of this month, at the place where our container is already placed now. If that does not work out, we have a few other options.
1:22 am
sprite

lol Kam :D How wonderful that Michael is doing so well with it.
1:23 am
TraderKate

!!!! Good news.!!! Prior to "goig dark", it had just been put in and he still was afraid to touch rhe controls.. and you were at 1/2 the setting doc said...long way for both of you. Ecstatic that you are having good results.
1:24 am
TraderKate

Defend your container? What are you doing, trying to claim squatter's rights?
1:25 am
sprite

lol no. we have permission to park the container there for the time being. Our hope is they will let us park our caravan there as well, and let us build the house on site. They want to know more about it all before deciding.
1:25 am
Kamanjah

I think he's happy with results. I just hope I can manage to go with him tomorrow, but he's going to have to drive. I want to know more about what else they can do with the electric fields they mess with...I don't really understand fully how it all works, but I LOVE seeing smiles!
1:26 am
sprite

just for him to be able to smile again, must have been worth the whole ordeal.
1:26 am
Kamanjah

Sprite, are you renting the property? why do you need permission - I obviously don't even know half of the story!
1:26 am
Kamanjah

Oh YES, the SMILES!!!
1:27 am
sprite

nope, not renting it. The sea container is ours. And we have permission and a permit to park it at one of Rob's canoe clubs. They have the space and need some money to keep the club alive. So we hope they will let us do the whole project there.
1:30 am
Kamanjah

OK, that makes a bit more sense to me. Our county is having fits about containers and required all sorts of retrofitting, then it all got voted down because there isn't any law about containers at the moment. Calif doesn't have any laws about the containers, but as soon as there is an alteration - like a window, or electricity, it becomes a building. Make sure you don't get caught in a permit trap.
1:31 am
TraderKate

That would be great if your plan came to fruition sprite! Nice view, generally quiet neighbours - and water <3
1:31 am
sprite

the sea container is only for storage and work space. It will not be used for our tiny house :)
1:31 am
Kamanjah

We want to put a container on the property that burned, but until the county decides what it is going to require, we're waiting.
1:32 am
Kamanjah

We just want it to store tools!
1:32 am
TraderKate

Amazed that buying a container was cheaper than renting -even long term!
1:33 am
TraderKate

Hahaha.. after the Tiny House is built, it culd become the Book Repository ;)
1:33 am
sprite

the container was already ours, honey. And it was a gift, since it is nearing the end of its life. Rob has been using it as workshop for the last few years. It was in our back garden. Had to move it before the photographer comes.
1:33 am
sprite

you will not believe how many books I have given away already.
1:34 am
Kamanjah

Ks finally killed!
1:34 am
sprite

yay Kam!
1:34 am
TraderKate

Everyone Kan Kill the Ks, but me *sniff*
1:34 am
sprite

just let us know if you want help, Kate
1:35 am
TraderKate

It';s okay, but TY! I will soldier on. Almost time to eat now.
1:35 am
Kamanjah

I believe! I'm trying to declutter, and 20 pounds of magazines went in the recycle bin Monday! I know, kids could have used them, I could have donated here or there, but I wanted them gone! They were from 2001! Needed to be GONE!
1:36 am
sprite

sometimes, simply GONE is the only way to go
1:36 am

cooee and g'day from me. {{{{{{sprite}}}}}} {{{{kam}}}} {{{{kate}}}}
1:36 am

I still have the remains of my bookstore that need to be hauled out and donated. Too many to trash

That's the saddest thing I have heard in a while - getting rid of books... :(
1:37 am
TraderKate

grannyrose!!!! <3
1:37 am
sprite

cannot be helped, Kate, in the tiny house we will simply not have the room. But the only reason I have been able to do it, is because of my ereader.
1:38 am
grannyrose

mwah.... i am achy ..... i put 1kg weights around each ankle today at gym. the last lap walked was just a tad painful... but now...ugh
1:38 am
sprite

phantom: monstrous
1:39 am
sprite

ouch, sweetie :( *gentle healing vibes to your pour ole body*
1:39 am
grannyrose

oh i detest throwing books away... you never know when you are going to want to read that particular book again..
1:40 am
grannyrose

and nowadays, i am loving delving into old classics like Middlemarch, The Cloister and the Hearth...
1:40 am
sprite

my rule has been: if I can read it on my ereader, it goes. If not available as an ebook, it stays.
1:41 am
TraderKate

if they can set up dog rescue transport chains, why not books as well? We do know people who deal in bookd...
1:41 am
sprite

and I never throw away a book. I give it away, sell it, or it goes to the thrift store.
1:41 am
grannyrose

gym wise the good news is that the physio is absolutely chuffed with how i am progressing. oh...and you'll never guess what i found out today... are you sitting down ?
1:42 am
sprite

*sitting*
1:42 am
TraderKate

Poor rose.. again! a kilo of weightis a lot for each ankle... how far did you have to go with them?
1:42 am
grannyrose

when i fell at work in 2013, i apparently fractured a vertebra in my lower back... that's right folks, i have been walking around europe with a broken back...
1:43 am
grannyrose

now tell me i don't know how to handle pain...
1:43 am
sprite

omfg, rose! That is so awful, darling. What now?
1:43 am
TraderKate

Books are my babies. I can't bear to throw a single one away..and have parted with very few freely. I also love the classics rose... <3
1:44 am
TraderKate

YOu're a tough ol bird rose... no question!
1:44 am
grannyrose

kate, i exercised for an hour with the weights on.
1:45 am
grannyrose

i can tell you... those weights really did elevate my heart rate which is good.
1:45 am
grannyrose

sprite, i have an appointment already with GP next week. it hasn't effected me too much, but it explains a lot
1:46 am
Kamanjah

you just found out about the fractures? EEK
1:46 am
sprite

so proud of you, honey, you are doing a great job with exercising. But how about that vertebra?
1:47 am
sprite

it sure explains a lot. What did Don say?
1:48 am
grannyrose

just a mo'. son on phone.
1:48 am
TraderKate

I can think of other things that would elevate your heart rate....rose
1:49 am
sprite

yeah but imagine doing that with weights on your ankles
1:49 am
TraderKate

haha... the work out at the gym, she asked innocently....

It's very late -even for me... almost 3 AM!
1:53 am

early breakfast, lol
1:54 am
TraderKate

I knew there had to be a way to make it sound rational ;)
1:55 am
sprite

leave it to me to rationalise things :D
1:56 am
TraderKate

ty for making me sound not *quite* as weird ;)
1:58 am
sprite

I used to be the same way about books. Couldn't part with any of them. It all changed with my ereader. I still love the feel of a real book, but the ability to reread as often as I want without having it take up more space is definitely a life changer.
1:58 am
TraderKate

Kam - you were saying that he'd have to drive tomorrow... he still drives? or did I get it wrong.

Good morning y'all. I have been watching the Dance of the Trees. The eye of the storm is directly overhead now. So far we have been very lucky. There are several counties that have lost power. It will last until daylight and then we are told that we will have sunshine this afternoon. The howling of the wind was a little disconcerting but the dancing trees ( that would be a good title for a book) make up for the howling. We are so lucky. Blessings
1:59 am
sprite

am very glad you are okay, peach. And such a poetic description, lovely!
1:59 am
gapeach

Thank you, dear one.
2:00 am
TraderKate

Hi peach! Glad to hear things are relatively okay with you.dancing trees are okayas long as they staay upright... a bit worried about many friends that are in the upcoming path...
2:01 am
TraderKate

small mercies that this storm is moving airly quickly -unlike Florence which crawled at a snail';s pace.
2:01 am
sprite

may the second part of the storm passing be as uneventful as the first, then. And may your friends be all safe, Kate.
2:02 am
gapeach

It is moving at 20 mph and will be going into south Carolina and bounce off North Carolina into the

gapeach

Atlantic. This is the first recorded hurricane to hit the panhandle of Florida. I have 2 friends that live on the Atlantic side of Florida (they both called to tell me that the sun was shining there). I do feel so sorry for the thousands that had to evacuate. A lot of them took their animals with them.
2:05 am
Kamanjah

Glad to hear you are safe, peach! Hear that Michael is quite the storm!
2:05 am
Kamanjah

Kate - yes, hubby still drives, never quit.
2:06 am
Kamanjah

I just spent some time tucking him in - he just got home a few hours ago and we were playing with the cat and cuddling a bit. He's exhausted.
2:06 am
gapeach

Thanks, Kam. I appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers.
2:08 am
Kamanjah

I have a friend in Pensecola...hoping the winds there don't ruin the plants - his wife grew a lovely flower garden, and she just passed last week. I hope her plants are ok, because he loves the flowers she grew.
2:09 am
sprite

*asks all angels to protect that garden with their wings*
2:10 am
gapeach

Oh, golly, Kam. That is tough. Sprite has a good suggestion.
2:10 am
sprite

would be like losing his wife all over again... too early for that... life can be so unfair.
2:11 am
sprite

death too, actually
2:11 am
gapeach

I am going to watch a little more TV and come back later to work on the grid.
2:11 am
Kamanjah

Thanks sprite and peach - I've been worrying about her flowers, he posts new blooms every day on FB
2:11 am
sprite

*hugs peach*
2:12 am
Kamanjah

I finally got to meet her just a few weeks ago - I had talked to her on the phone and on FB a lot - she was such a beautiful person, I'm so glad he had her, and so sad she passed so soon
2:14 am
sprite

personally, I think the whole 'the good die young' thing is bull poopy. The Big Guy would do better to take away the assholes and let us keep the good ones for longer. Just saying.
2:15 am
Kamanjah

Really! I don't know her exact age, but very close to mine. Cancer that spread to her brain. Thankfully for her, it was really fast, so she suffered very little
2:16 am
grannyrose

and back after such a lovely call from youngest son. lots of laughter and such.
2:16 am
sprite

I lost a friend to cancer who was even younger than I was, about 10 years ago. She was such a good person. And then we have people like my parents, who are no good to anyone...
2:16 am
sprite

good to hear, rose :)
2:17 am
sprite

not going to pester you again, but with that vertebra added to the whole mix, I am saying again: char lady.
2:18 am
grannyrose

and as to why so many young beautiful people are dying early? it is NOT a part of God's plan for our world and people. they die because of what man has done to our world, filling it with synthetics and poisons all of which are killing us.
2:19 am
sprite

you think? I believe good people died too young long before we polluted this world too.
2:20 am
grannyrose

as for the vertebra as it actually hasn't effected my ability to walk i think the GP will advise to continue with the exercises which are helping to strengthen my muscles.
2:20 am
sprite

where is jane? I found her a sheep.
2:21 am
sprite

no doubt, honey, but she will also tell you to not put stress on that vertebra. Be wise, woman :)
2:21 am
grannyrose

sprite, think of the industrial revolution, and the children working underground in mines, and crawling amongst lint and dust on factory floors.
2:22 am
sprite

yeah but before that, good people died way too young too. When the world was still a clean place.
2:22 am
grannyrose

our genetics has been mutilated right back then.
2:23 am
sprite

and the other half is just as bad. I mean, someone like my father should have stopped wasting space here a lonnnnng time ago. I'd trade him for Jom in a heartbeat.
2:23 am
grannyrose

i think before that man did not have the knowledge to help babies, children with heart and lung problems.
2:24 am
grannyrose

babies died from lack of simple surgery which today is 'old hat'
2:25 am
sprite

we can safely say that Man has not proved himself to be a good steward to this world. But I have some bones to pick with the Big Guy about who gets to live and who to die, among other things. I bet I will live a very very long time, because I am pretty sure He wants to postpone having me at His feet and giving him a piece of my mind as long as possible.
2:27 am
grannyrose

roflollll.... save time, do it NOW.... i told you... He is bigger than all, He can take it...
2:28 am
sprite

lol, it is what I always say to people who tell me I am not respectful enough to the Big Guy. I tell them: 'He created me, in His image, with sharp tongue and irreverent attitude and all. He knows where it is coming from, and He knows how deep my faith is.'
2:29 am
grannyrose

i know my darling. people like your father and my mother were sent to strengthen US... getting to that point however is teeth-grindingly slow...
2:30 am
sprite

there is truth in that, darling. I wouldn't want to be any different from how I turned out, since the stuff I suffered through is so very beneficial to others now. It is a wealth I can share, and in that way do my little bit to make this world a better place. So yeah. But still. *glares up and tells the Big Guy that still does not let Him of the hook*
2:33 am
sprite

lol, did I ever tell you about the vicar in the church where I used to give sacred dance lessons? Such a wonderful lady. She said she loved the way I talked about God in my lessons. I told her that sometimes I curse when I pray. She literally had to sit down from laughing, and then told me that she was certain God took very good notice of my prayers, seeing how intense they were ;)
2:34 am
grannyrose

yes, it is OUR life experiences which makes us good listeners and EMpathisers. our understanding of how actions, words and emotions are linked is for a goodly(Godly?) purpose.
2:35 am
sprite

I guess, yes. Life is a series of lessons, I know. I just sometimes want to play hookie.
2:36 am
grannyrose

i think that was made me so EMpathetic to my patients. because of all i have been through, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
2:36 am
sprite

I think it made you invaluable to them
2:37 am
sprite

ugh, final word was the 8. Fireflies.
2:38 am
grannyrose

please understand, i am not blowing my own trumpet, but i had so many patients young and old come back and thank me after they were discharged to home.

honey, that is not a lack of modesty, that is a sense of reality. You did so much for them, just by being you. God has no hands but ours, remember... He used yours a lot.
2:40 am

am gonna love and leave you. Lots of stuff to do today and I better get going while I still can.

10:19 am

Ah. Same time, different place. Living in Colorado then. What happened on the Other Side of the Mountains was legend. We only needed one drop - I still have color-dreams every so often.
10:21 am
Judi

I'm guessing purple or green owsley was acid (LSD)?
10:21 am
rururocks

i was a child of the 60's.. so I was in the thick of it.. went up to SF all the time.. free concerts... hippy women...free love ..and bell bottoms

Also, quit after we stopped by a diner where a friend was waitressing; she came over and told us her father had died, and we got sad but instead of crying, burst out laughing. That was the end of that.

10:26 am
Judi

Marijuana cultivation has evolved significantly. So, the skunk weed we smoked in the 60's, 70's and 80's is no more. They now have flavored MJ. Some day, I'll go somewhere where it's legal and sample some.
10:27 am
rururocks

legal now in several states judi..
10:27 am
rururocks

it's so much more potent now than ever
10:27 am
Judi

Yeah. Delaware just shot down legalizing it. A**holes!
10:28 am
Judi

There are varying degrees of potency. Mild to blow the top of your head off. I would personally look for the mild stuff.
10:28 am

San Francisco is still the place. There's one dispensary a block away from where I'm living. Two hulks outside, always offer a "free hit for the old lady" (I look behind me to see who they're talking to)
