Ok, I didn't get to this yesterday but I do want to thank Molly and the rest of you lovely ladies on the menopause/dry skin hint yesterday. I thought my detergent had changed their formula but you wonderful girls made me think again and do additional research and, hey, that's probably my problem, lol. I had a procedure about 15 years ago and have not had a visible 'cycle' in that time so had/have no idea, but now have add'l info to look into to keep from digging all the skin off my body, lol. So happy Good Friday to me and Happy/Blessed Easter to all who include it in their calendars.

looks like it has been quiet for awhile...

6:11 am

MollyL

How are you feeling Phan?

6:15 am

MollyL

Glad you got some insight on things amelu. Menopause started all kinds of issues for me, dry skin and dry hair just two of them. The vaseline and cotton gloves at night thing really works. Same for vaselne and cotton socks for your feet. My feet are even dryer than my hands, and I am not constantly washing them.

6:32 am

phandmd

even better!

6:32 am

phandmd

Thank you for asking, Molly!

6:37 am

BzznBea

Amelu, it is hard to know when you are starting through menopause even with a montly cycle. Glad we could help give some insight into your dry skin issue. Babble chat, helping women through menopause since 2003.

6:37 am

BzznBea

I'm glad you are doing so well, Phan.

Thank you. Me too. Just holding my breath about my husband getting sick...

6:44 am

phandmd

anyone have a clue for the AP6?

6:49 am

MollyL

a + first two of what you call someone on + first three of what you respond "you're welcome" to

6:49 am

MollyL

Sorry, clumsy clue. It is a weird word

6:50 am

phandmd

clumsy clues work! It is a weird word, going to look it up now...

6:50 am

Thank you!

7:03 am

phandmd

Thanks Bea, I miscalculated and thought I needed 2 2 point tiles...

7:03 am

phandmd

And that was just not making any sense!

7:04 am

phandmd

need to take a nap... Didn't sleep great last night so.

MLFAN17

good morning all

7:28 am

Atalante

good afternoon!

7:30 am

BzznBea

Hey, Ata.

7:34 am

rururocks

ata.. i don't believe i have ever thanked you for turning me on to Highland Park.. i'm a total fan.. it's one of my staple scotches in the cabinet

7:34 am

Atalante

LOL :D isnt it lovely!

7:35 am

rururocks

it's really perfect

7:36 am

Atalante

I think so, I've never met any whisky drinker that doesn't at least really like it

7:36 am

rururocks

so.. thank you very much.. it's been an eye opener

7:37 am

Atalante

good good :) always happy to spread the word of orkney whisky!

7:38 am

MollyL

Here's to good whiskey, and lots of it.

7:38 am

rururocks

i did finally get to taste the Loki in San Diego

7:38 am

Atalante

now thats really amazinf

7:38 am

rururocks

it cost me $145 for a shot though

7:38 am

MollyL

Holy crap

7:39 am

BzznBea

YIKES!

7:39 am

rururocks

it was incredible.. the best scotch i've ever tasted .. ever

7:40 am

Atalante

yes, here too. I think we got a bottle for £300 ish when it first came out. but its whisky on a different level

7:40 am

rururocks

it was on an expense account bea and Molly..

7:40 am

BzznBea

LOL! Bet they loved that ticket.

7:40 am

rururocks

it certainly is.. even my 1978 MacCallan wasn't nearly as great

7:41 am

rururocks

yeah.. i said someone in the group had expensive taste :D

7:41 am

MollyL

Yeah, but your expenses come out of your own pocket, don't they?

7:42 am

rururocks

yeah.. but it's a write off too.. and i'd never get a chance to try it otherwise.. a bottle here if you can find it is over $1,000

7:44 am

BzznBea

Have you done your weekly shopping yet, Molly?

7:44 am

Atalante

sometimes you just have to do these things :)

7:46 am

rururocks

yeah.. i was so curious and this was the first time i'd ever seen it on a bar.. the place is called Whiskey House and it has the world record of whiskeys available by the glass.. the loki was worth every penny.. just insanely delicious scotch

7:52 am

rururocks

I toasted Ata the minute i had my first taste

7:55 am

Atalante

BzznBea

LOL! I just finished those.

8:01 am

rururocks

8:02 am

dan2bit

I think I had better mow the lawn today, at least in the front

8:04 am

BzznBea

Coq au vin sounds lovely. What wine will you use?

8:05 am

welki

'morning all

(which highland park did you try, ru?)

8:06 am

welki

...and which one is the 'every day go-to' one, ata? (my other half loves single malts)

8:06 am

Atalante

any of them are lovely welki

8:08 am

rururocks

my house highland park is the 18 year old welki.. it's fabulous and reasonable

8:08 am

rururocks

a nice pinot bea.. for the dinner

8:09 am

rururocks

i've also tried the Dark Matters and like that a lot too. They had a 47 year old on the list at the Bar, but it is $849 a shot as I remember

8:09 am

Atalante

even the 12 year old is pretty good

8:09 am

welki

oh my - there are two 18 year olds on the site i'm looking at - one is +$500 and the other +$1000

8:10 am

rururocks

yes the 12 is really good but the 18 year old is waaay better

8:10 am

rururocks

it's $145 here welki

8:10 am

godthaab

We love the HIghland 18!

8:11 am

rururocks

i know now how Canada can pay for healthcare :D

8:12 am

welki

i'm not crazy for scotch, but can be talked into a nice rusty nail every now and again

8:13 am

Atalante

whats that? whisky and ...?

8:13 am

rururocks

this is scotch at another level welki.. really beautiful stuff

8:13 am

godthaab

It's $200.00 here. I belong to a Scotch Tasting group - it gets expensive!

8:13 am

welki

a little bit of drambuie, ata

8:13 am

rururocks

next trip to the usa welki.. just buy some in NJ

8:14 am

godthaab

Try the Jura 10 if you like Drambuie or Cognac!

8:14 am

rururocks

and save yourself $300

8:15 am

rururocks

i only have one cognac in the cabinet here

8:15 am

Atalante

welki have you tried glayva? can you even get glayva over there?

8:16 am

rururocks

I think I'm turning into a millenial i've been drinking so many liquors :D

8:18 am

welki

heh - 1976 Jura 40 yr old is $2541. CAD

8:19 am

welki

says we can get it, i've never seen it, though. sounds botanical

8:20 am

Atalante

its whisky liqueur really and its gorgeous if you don't like proper whisky and like honeyed versions

8:20 am

rururocks

do they allow you to bring back liquor from the us welki when you visit here?

8:21 am

welki

yes, ru - don't know what the limits are, but i know you can bring a bottle or two back

8:21 am

rururocks

they allow me to bring two bottles of wine when i come without taxes

8:21 am

rururocks

not sure about liquor though

8:22 am

hokie carla

hmm, 111 words on the 11th

8:23 am

welki

heh - at this rate, it'd be more economical to just take a trip to visit ata and drink at her table :)

8:23 am

BzznBea

Rather ominous...

8:23 am

Atalante

we could drive up to highland park and take photos to annoy ru

8:24 am

hokie carla

it is my birthday too. worst birthday I can ever remember!

8:24 am

welki

no one needs to see a photo of me passed out on the driveway of the distillery

8:24 am

BzznBea

Happy Birthday, Homie!

8:24 am

Atalante

its a very pretty driveway

8:25 am

BzznBea

I'd bake you a cake...

8:48 am

hokie carla

finished the f's and didn't even notice. was typing in random made up stuff for nothing!

8:48 am

BzznBea

I went to the grocery store yesterday. What a fluster cluck!

8:49 am

MollyL

You know, we can wear our masks and our gloves, but it only takes one idiot, like I saw in the store today...coughing all over his self check out terminal..to spread this stuff around. Bless the store employee who went and sanitized the terminal once the idiot left.

8:49 am

rururocks

i went yesterday too bea.. it was nice once i got in the store.. they're only letting a few people at a time

8:49 am

hokie carla

mr. bf is planning a trip tomorrow. I don't know if it's the whole state or just here but they are limiting # of shoppers inside now.

8:49 am

hokie carla

sorry, mr. bf is what I call him on my other thing

8:50 am

hokie carla

mr. homie

8:50 am

MollyL

I miss the days when I was the only one in the grocery store at 6 AM.

8:50 am

BzznBea

People in my town barely follow the traffic laws. We think they are going to follow one way signs in the grocery store?

8:50 am

hokie carla

good point

8:51 am

hokie carla

and thanks for the t word ;)

8:51 am

BzznBea

I stood at the end of an aisle waiting for the two people to finish before I stepped in. Had three people walk around me to get in the aisle.

8:51 am

BzznBea

Your welcome.

8:52 am

rururocks

one p to go

8:52 am

BzznBea

Did you get everything you needed, Molly?

8:53 am

MollyL

I have had that same thing happen to me Bea. And yes, I got everything I needed.

8:53 am

MollyL

And a few things I could have passed on, but hey, I'm living large these days. Why not?

8:53 am

hokie carla

there's a woman that has done that to me twice on my street. I'm waiting for oncoming traffic since there are cars parked on my side and she comes up behind and just goes around me. last time I saw her coming I was in mr. homie's truck and I angled it to block her. made me so angry.

8:54 am

rururocks

i get people who stop and look at lettuce and it takes them ten minutes to decide which one

8:54 am

hokie carla

you do get them?

8:54 am

BzznBea

Things here are starting to become more available now that people understand how long term this is. It also helps that stores are limiting 2 of each item.

8:55 am

MollyL

We have a three lane highway that narrows to two after a major intersection. It is clearly marked that the right lane ends, merge left. Yet people line up in the right lane anyway. I never let them in.

8:55 am

dan2bit

thanks hokie and Molly and lickety - firewords

8:55 am

hokie carla

speaking of lettuce, the romaine I'm growing looks like it's ready!

8:55 am

hokie carla

well done, dan. not sure I did anything to help, but yw

8:55 am

BzznBea

Pinch it off and it will continue to grow.

8:55 am

MollyL

I wish it was warm enough here to grow things. I had to take the one hanging basket of flowers I have out, in last night because of a freaking freeze warning in April.

8:56 am

hokie carla

covered tomatoes and lettuce last night and moved the peach tree into the screened porch

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

you can grow salad greens, they like this weather. i am trying them for the first time.

8:56 am

BzznBea

It is cold here today too, Molly. I'm glad we waited to get out houseplants out.

8:57 am

hokie carla

50 right now but was like 33 or 34 earlier. supposed to be 69.

8:58 am

BzznBea

I'm trying to rid a flower bed off my back porch of vinca vine. That sh*@ is tenacious!

8:59 am

cybernan

good morning all. Kind of down today - week 5 of self distancing and it is getting old. Skyped with elder son yesterday - his birthday. Haven't seen him since last September and haven't seen most of the grandkids or our daughter since last August. The Vancouver bunch we visited at Christmas, but it seems like such a long time ---- sure hope this pandemic passes soon. I know most of you are in the same boat.

8:59 am

hokie carla

I remember planting vinca at my mailbox in our first house. it was good for me since I tend to kill things

8:59 am

BzznBea

9:00 am

hokie carla

yep, nan. it stinks. hang in there.

9:00 am

BzznBea

Was it the flowers or the vine, Carla.

9:00 am

hokie carla

oh, it was the flowers. didn't realize the vine was a different thing

9:01 am

hokie carla

but the flowers do great in heat/drought conditions ;D

9:01 am

BzznBea

I'm sorry you are feeling that way, Nan. It is hard to not be able to see friends and family. I hate it.

9:02 am

BzznBea

Yes, they are very heat tolerant. And I do like the flowers, just not the vine.

9:02 am

hokie carla

finished the w!

9:03 am

BzznBea

I have three very close and long time friends back in KS. Right now, I am so angry with them, I will not even look at their texts.

9:04 am

BzznBea

They are gallvanting all over the place, visiting friends and family. They are all having huge
Easter dinners at their homes.

9:04 am

hokie carla

they not buying into social distancing?

9:05 am

BzznBea

Not at all.

9:05 am

BzznBea

I told them the other day it was people like them that were making this quarentine last longer. Deaf ears.

9:05 am

cybernan

I know Bea - I shouldn't complain. Our kids all live 300 - 600 miles away, but I still have a husband with me so I am not entirely alone unlike some of the seniors around here.

9:06 am

hokie carla

in good virus news, we did a zoom happy hour with our camping group last night and the couple that tested positive are now symptom free and seem to have beat it.

9:06 am

phandmd

back at it. may I get a clue for the 1st EN 6 pls?

9:06 am

phandmd

That's good news Hokie!

9:06 am

hokie carla

I don't have any yet, phand. hope you are feeling better today.

9:06 am

BzznBea

facsinated, phan

9:07 am

phandmd

I am! Thank you

9:07 am

cybernan

Hi phand -- still improving I hope ?

9:07 am

BzznBea

9:07 am

hokie carla

hmm, no l, so not enthralled

9:07 am

phandmd

my thoughts exactly...

9:07 am

hokie carla

oh, just found one relating to bad police work

9:08 am

BzznBea

That is good to hear, Carla. I'm sure you had a great time catching up.

9:08 am

phandmd

yeah, got that too...

9:09 am

BzznBea

anagram that last part of the word

9:09 am

hokie carla

yeah, it's 5 couples counting us and it was almost like we were sitting around a campfire having campfire discussions

9:09 am

phandmd

Thanks, Bea!

9:10 am

phandmd

had hoped that it would help in getting the 7 but alas...

9:10 am

MollyL

I have been thinking of how much this stay at home thing is going to change lives. Weddings that have to be canceled. Funerals that will be small. Graduations that won't happen.

9:11 am

cybernan

are you looking for the en 7 phand? want a clue?

9:11 am

hokie carla

got it, though I'm a little slow. my anagram at first was a thing used to cover something :D

9:11 am

phandmd

yes please.

9:11 am

BzznBea

en7 is a contestant in a compition

9:11 am

jaxx7

en7 One who goes in for a competition

9:11 am

BzznBea

Sorry...Jumped the gun on that one.

9:11 am

cybernan

9:12 am

Uneaixoise

Tx Bea!!

9:12 am

rururocks

i cancelled my vacation yesterday or the day before.. so bummed out

9:12 am

hokie carla

yeah, molly, I've been thinking how my son most likely won't have his senior soccer season in the fall

9:12 am

BzznBea

And my spelling and typing stink today.

9:12 am

Aloyisius

sorry, ru.. my son and his wife cancelled Ireland, their delayed honeymoon

9:12 am

cybernan

a person who signs up for a contest or class is an en 7

9:13 am

phandmd

Thanks, Nan!

9:13 am

MollyL

No proms either.

9:13 am

MLFAN17

bzz people can be heartless and brainless during these times

9:13 am

cybernan

what was the timing for your vaycay ru?

9:13 am

BzznBea

I know, Molly. We have a young friend down the block who should graduate this spring. And she has a gorgeous dress for prom.

9:13 am

hokie carla

did I mention I was supposed to be in FL right now? also, we were going to do a trip for our 25th anniversary this summer (which was actually in Jan).

9:13 am

rururocks

oh yeah.. i have to miss the prom too

9:13 am

periwinkle

I am watching a show about Vancouver Island and all of the animals that live there both in and out of the water.

9:14 am

Aloyisius

did my first Zoom yesterday.. fun, some things still to learn

9:14 am

periwinkle

Very interesting show

9:14 am

BzznBea

Now they are wondering what her freshman year of college will look like as she was going away.

9:14 am

rururocks

i was going in July Nan

9:14 am

BzznBea

I'm sorry you are going to miss the prom, ru.

9:14 am

rururocks

i rented a house near qualicum but not to be

9:14 am

phandmd

We were lucky, we were able to go to Jamaica in January, that was to celebrate our 30th which was in July...

9:14 am

MLFAN17

Bzz and hokie.. I heard yesterday that the worst area for the stay at home thing and for not following the rules in NC is where I live Hubby and I are not involved in those "statstics
.

9:15 am

MollyL

Every time I mistakenly hit the reverse button on my phone camera, I realize how much I don't want to Zoom or Skype with anyone. : D

9:15 am

cybernan

probably smart to cancel -- a lot of medical professionals are doubtful we will be completely over this by then or that there might be a 2nd wave.

9:15 am

MLFAN17

I heard someone somewhere didn't follow the rules protocol and was arrested for not doing so

9:15 am

rururocks

people still going to church there hokie?

9:16 am

hokie carla

phand, we still have a high schooler and I didn't want to leave him alone and go out of the country for our anniversary, so I said we'd go in the summer when the college kid was home.

Aloy, I hope you followed the advice given one of my gardeners who appeared in a Zoom meeting wearing only her bra...

9:16 am

cybernan

the curve in BC has flattened, but our health minister keeps warning that will only be so as long as people continue to stay home.

9:16 am

hokie carla

the churches I'm on email list for are not even open, ruru

9:16 am

Aloyisius

lol Bea.. neck up only

9:16 am

rururocks

what was the advice bea?

9:16 am

hokie carla

my church back in VA is closed too

9:17 am

MollyL

On a positive note, I heard an emergency room worker being interviewed on the radio and he says that local emergency rooms are not over crowded and they have room to treat those who need it.

9:17 am

MLFAN17

hokie I saw that their are areas who still plan on celebrating tomorrow with church services

9:17 am

phandmd

Our church is doing it on line. Has been for weeks now

9:17 am

wvteach

our church streams the service online. church meetings and "gatherings" are held by Zoom

9:17 am

MLFAN17

Molly in general or in a particular area?

9:18 am

hokie carla

yeah, I think once hospitals cut out elective surgeries a lot of room opened up. our friend that works for the hospital here says they are only half full right now.

9:18 am

BzznBea

Those areas planning on Easter services are also the ones that think The Orange Man is going to save them.

9:18 am

cybernan

yes there are still a lot of people that need to go back to primary school where they can be taught reading comprehension.

9:18 am

MLFAN17

bzz lol and the Tooth Fairy ?

9:18 am

hokie carla

I think the churches were trying to get an exemption that would allow them to have the people there in order to stream the service.

9:19 am

rururocks

i just read about some republicans who overturned a governor's orders to halt church gatherings

9:19 am

BzznBea

Ru, the advice Playtex Cindy was given was to cover her camera with a post it.

9:19 am

hokie carla

I know my one church here had a Good Friday service yesterday on zoom, so I assume they're doing tomorrow online as well.

9:19 am

MLFAN17

hokie but you don't need a lot of people for that you can do it from home or inside a church by yourself cant you?

9:20 am

MollyL

People need to remember that church is not the only place you can be spiritual.

9:20 am

rururocks

ah.. that's too bad bea.. at least i hope she provided an uplifting conversation

9:20 am

cybernan

if the pope can hold easter services with only 7 people in the building, so can everyone else.

9:20 am

wvteach

in our church the variou paarticipants record their parts at home, send it to the minister who puts it all together to stream online on sunday

9:20 am

hokie carla

yeah, from what I read, they just wanted to be able to go there with a bare bones crew for service and streaming, but it's possible some of them really want everyone there.

9:21 am

cybernan

but then Italy has been hit so hard he, at least, probably understands what is going on.

9:21 am

hokie carla

I mean, you'd think they'd learn from that s. korean church where everyone got it

9:22 am

BzznBea

One pastor I read about said he was sure members of his congregation would be happy to contract the virus if they could worship together on Easter.

9:22 am

MollyL

I would love to get five minutes with "Cindy" to let her know how much people don't want to see her old, wrinkled up body in a bra.

9:22 am

MollyL

What was his name Bea? Jim Jones?
