hey, that Q was easy for a change! hi all.
12:10 am
Kamanjah
Hi rbud!
12:10 am
rbud
hey, lady, how goes it?
12:11 am
Kamanjah
Not bad...not bad at all! Just waiting for the weather to decide which season it's supposed to be, lol!
12:12 am
Kamanjah
How goes it with you?
12:12 am
rbud
oh, it needs to stay a little nice for a bit longer, just a few more outdoor things we need to do to the house. Small but important.
12:13 am
Kamanjah
We're still waiting to get our roof replaced!
12:13 am
Kamanjah
Wind blew a tree on it in Feb...contractor has us on the calendar for Nov
12:14 am
Kamanjah
They are *that* busy here!
12:14 am
rbud
oh, I think I remember something about that - refresh my memory, what damaged it?
12:14 am
rbud
oh, I see you answered, sorry. Typing slow here.
12:14 am
Kamanjah
No, just net lag
12:15 am
rbud
did you have pictures up on FB?
12:15 am
Kamanjah
I actually don't remember! If not, I'll put some up and tag you
12:16 am
rbud
around here it's been flooding - the whole nearest town of any size has lots of flooded basements, which I guess is unusual according to the owners.
12:16 am
Kamanjah
Thankfully it didn't break into the house! We've already have over 1/2" of rain, and at this time of year in Calif, that is rare!
12:16 am
rbud
for a change we got lucky and haven't had to run the pump.
12:17 am
Kamanjah
Bummer! We don't have basements here.
12:18 am

Clues are up
12:19 am
rbud
I really only have a rather tall crawl space, and it frequently takes on water when it rains a lot. It did this last spring. But not this weekend.
12:20 am
rbud
I suspect it may have to do with some excavation uphill from us, town had to dig up the sewer line for another residence, and the large trench kept a lot of it from racing down here like it usually does.
12:20 am
rbud
maybe we need a moat, haha
12:21 am
Kamanjah
That's fortunate. Seems each area of the country has specific issues. I've only lived thru two small hurricanes in So Calif, but the nightmares of the folks who really got hit...oh my!
12:22 am
Kamanjah
Our major flooding besides rain is our neighbor who is a bit uphill - if she springs a leak, we get a flood!
12:22 am
Kamanjah
A leaking in her watering systems, that is, lol!
12:22 am
Kamanjah
We're all on 1+ acre lots.
12:24 am
rbud
We usually get water coming down two different slopes, down the driveway (a block or so long) and converging around (and under) the house. Not this time, yay!
12:26 am
rbud
and we're the lowest spot around, so it's hard to get it away from us. But hey, enough about our weather, haha
12:26 am
Kamanjah
Yay! Our other neighbor had her garage flooded the first year she was here...the sellers didn't disclose the flooding problem. Living in the hills is nice, but when you're downhill from everyone, it's not much fun. We do have twice the lawn we planned, however!
12:27 am
rbud
oh,that's a good thing. (the lawn). I thought sellers were required by law to disclose such things? Sneaky devils.
12:30 am
Kamanjah
Yep, sneaky! She spent a small fortune fixing things but has a nice place now.
Guess it's the wrong time to catch up, so I'll shut up now.
12:37 am
Kamanjah
WTG, Diz!
1:26 am

is the ce7/32 a dulcimer? Does anyone now?

Feeling no pain, eh? That's good in so many ways!

Kamanjah
Be sure to hydrate!

grannyrose
not really, but certainly buzzing. in hospital.
1:42 am
Kamanjah
Cuz, I tell ya, pain sux! But you don't need anyone to tell you that.
1:43 am
Kamanjah
Oh No! Are you OK?! I hope it's just for pain treatment, nothing more serious!
1:43 am
grannyrose
*giggle* okay, have asked for TWO cans of soda with my wine at dinner.
1:44 am
Kamanjah
Wait, they are giving you WINE with dinner? I'm moving to Australia!
1:45 am
grannyrose
kam, i am currently in a five star hotel masquerading as a hospital. it's that time again. when my pain doc fills me up with ketamine and magnesium.
1:47 am
grannyrose
lol, kam. even the cardiac units over here see the benefits of red wine , in moderation of course, for their cardiac patients.
1:47 am
Kamanjah
Oh, you're in the heaven I dream about! I'm glad it's that time again for you. You get so much relief. All I get is assholes telling me I can't have my pain meds for any reason they can dream up. Takes about two days to call them out - even after doctor says to give me the med. Then they refuse because they can't call him on weekends, damn it!
1:50 am
grannyrose
awwww kam, honey. that is so not right.come on over, us ozzie's will take care of you. hang on! i'm pulling on scomo's shirt-tails.
1:50 am
Kamanjah
I don't mean I envy your health problems - I'm just jealous you get good treatment for them! I've been in bed for so long...hubby drove me to last appointment because I couldn't drive - I felt too awful and not due to meds either, just to clear things up for everyone else. I'm NOT well!
1:51 am
Kamanjah
Pain treatment in the US has become a nightmare. Even my doc said the pharmacies are pulling new rules out of their asses - direct quote.
1:52 am
grannyrose
of course you're not well kam. even a blind man and his seeing-eye dog can see that.
1:56 am
Kamanjah
Hubby just said American's aren't welcome in Australia, after I said I want to move there!
1:59 am
grannyrose
well we are pretty particular... i would have thought you two would fit the bill nicely. if not, practice being really cold and surviving on little oxygen. i'll smuggle the pair of you out in my suitcase.
2:00 am
Kamanjah
I'm sorry, I'm just in pain, and I'm tired of it. I'm exhausted! I can't get my own self anywhere I need to be for treatment, and hubby has Parkinson's. His driving scares the oomph out of me. My blood pressure is higher after I ride with him than when I drive!
I simply have to go get a passport!
2:01 am
grannyrose
i have just committed an unforgivable sin. red wine with white meat...wanna join me
2:01 am
Kamanjah
Love you, Rose!
2:02 am
Kamanjah
Hey, if it tastes good, do it!
2:05 am
grannyrose
poor darling. i know it's trite. but i do really wish i could have you both here.i just don't understand. people are in pain. human beings are in pain. give them whatever it takes. to give them some sort of life back.
2:06 am
Kamanjah
Our gov't took what little lives we had away with their new "guidelines." They've tried to back off, but too little, too late.
2:08 am
Kamanjah
I'm sorry to everyone who sees this - but having your pain meds taken away when you're in pain 24/7 is not right! We are the .2% - it's the people who abuse meds that cost legit patients proper care.
2:09 am
Kamanjah
OK, enough bitching! I hope you feel wonderful when you get done with your treatment!
2:09 am
grannyrose
i saw that. such tight-fisted so-and-sos. and they aren't the people in pain.
2:10 am
grannyrose
*wry grin* i know kam.
2:10 am
Kamanjah
Oh, give them a day in my shoes...no, a month! They'd change their tune in two seconds.

There are only four he 4/5. The fifth he4 is 4/6 - start of the following he6.

Gillie I have the 4/6 I have looked again at the list and it seems to be the fifth fe.4/5 it is the final 4.5, word
4:04 pm

Are you looking for fe or he?

Gillie I have found it . it was 4.5 .. the H***/s are alive with the sound of music .

good night everyone .

I didn't roll my eyes (hard or soft) when I found the aw6 because I always think of it as two words.
4:20 pm
BzznBea
Well, acording to my mom, my eyes roll at the least provocation. She can hear the roll from the next room...
4:22 pm
hokie carla
I didn't have trouble with the aw6 but can't find the at6
4:22 pm
MollyL
Mothers say that about daughters, especially teenage daughters who roll their eyes and sigh at the least provocation
4:23 pm
MollyL
at6 clued earlier as consumed + first three of head vermin
4:24 pm
BzznBea
Yes, but I'm sixty...She is still telling me that my eyes will stick like that! LOL!
4:25 pm
BzznBea
Off to fix dinner for my darling momma. =)
4:26 pm
MollyL
Enjoy Bea, and don't, for God's sake, roll your eyes
4:31 pm
hokie carla
yeah, I saw the earlier clue but am just not getting it. thanks for trying though.
4:31 pm
hokie carla
nm, got it
4:31 pm
hokie carla
fireworks!
4:38 pm
MollyL
That is interesting. I can only think of one thing that is gross/vermin on the head
4:40 pm
hokie carla
the earlier clue I saw said part of consumed + head ***e, so I was leaving off the last letter of consumed and the only thing I could think of was head game (Foreigner) :D
4:40 pm
hokie carla
so your clue was improved, which is why I finally got it.
4:43 pm
hokie carla
and your head vermin made me think of top mouse LOL. took me a minute to realize you mean vermin on the head.
4:43 pm
MollyL
That is why the **** clues often do not work
4:46 pm
MollyL
The clue I was referring to was "past tense of eat + hair bug, leaving off last vowel"
4:53 pm
hokie carla
yeah, I missed that one and must have seen an earlier one
4:54 pm
hokie carla
maybe it was supposed to say "past of consumed" instead of "part of consumed"
4:59 pm
MollyL
Could be, but I'm not sure what the past of consumed is
: D

Climate change...... ironically we had record breaking rain back in the spring!!

I'm a person who believes that climate change has always happened. Really cold winters, very hot summers, and mild seasons in between.
5:35 pm

Drought in some areas, heavy rain in others, it is the nature of weather.

I actually bought her tickets to a show in Brooklyn for her birthday, ( which is in July) that happens in November. She has to truck on back up for the show. But how was I to know that the perfect job would wander in to her life?

I don't babble a tenth of the amount I used to, sadly

7:34 pm

it just so happened that i discovered that one of my HS classmates was teaching in the next room. so i mentioned it to her, thinking it was better to tell someone to whom i am not a stranger, and she could not have cared less. she was like, eh, whatever.
