hello, problems with new puppy and with horrible husband
6:05 am
Lizlin

Oh Ruby! What's wrong?
6:05 am
rubyfoo

puppy, who was supposed to come on tuesday, has an eye problem and we don't know if it's chronic.
6:06 am
rubyfoo

Meanwhile, while I am feeling sad, husband is being very hostile, thinks my sadness is directed at him
6:06 am
Lizlin

Oh! Well not much I can say but I'm sure it's getting the best attention.
6:06 am
rubyfoo

yes, the husband of the breeder is a vet, but husband just can't handle my grief
6:06 am
Lizlin

Can only keep reassuring him that your sadness is because of the puppy's problem.
6:07 am
Lizlin

That's so hard for you - hugs and stuff coming your way. But that's not much help, I guess.
6:07 am
rubyfoo

I tried but he is totally closed off
6:07 am
rubyfoo

I fell apart over lunch and I don't do that v ery often
6:07 am
Lizlin

Exhausting for you but all you can do is keep repeating the same thing.
6:10 am

I am worn out, feel like I'm juggling Swords and flaming batons

hi all , what puppy problems ruby?
6:28 am
sandyloo

read the chog
6:28 am
rubyfoo

rafaella has a closed eye since yesterday and now the decision is whether to take her that way, wait, or take a different puppy. Meanwhile, I'm in tears and husband is being nasty/
6:29 am
rubyfoo

Aside from that, everything is peachy!
6:29 am
sandyloo

it willwork out ruby, it is a stressful time for you both
6:29 am
bichon

what about your fridge?
6:29 am
sandyloo

be patient although it's hard
6:29 am
Lizlin

Hi Sandy and Bichon :)
6:29 am
sandyloo

often young animals have eye probs and they get better
6:29 am
sandyloo

hi liz
6:30 am
bichon

hi sandy, Liz
6:30 am
rubyfoo

the fridge situation is hopeless. I went (alone) to shop for a new one but none of them fits in our custom kitchen. We will either have to take out cabinets or HOPE that the guy can fix this fridge (unlikesly)
6:30 am
sandyloo

hi bich
6:31 am
rubyfoo

, unfortunately, our vet has little experience with chowschows frequently have entropion and
6:31 am
sandyloo

it never rains but it pours!!! in six weeks time you will have forgotten all this
6:31 am
sandyloo

entropion i will google it
6:31 am
rubyfoo

you think?
6:33 am
rubyfoo

my husband can't stand me and, when i need either help or sympathy, I get neither!
6:33 am
Lizlin

I just googled entropion - if this is the case and it's been caught early, can they do somehting to help?
6:33 am
bichon

I'm lucky to have a daughter to talk too. She's really comforting
6:34 am
rubyfoo

they can do surgery, but,unfortunately, there isn't a vet in Annecy who has ever done the surgery
6:34 am
rubyfoo

chows are rare here (I Wonder why lol)
6:34 am
bichon

It's difficult to take a puppy and have to start out with surgery.
6:34 am
Lizlin

What about where the puppy is now? If surgery is done, is it a recurrent problem?
6:34 am
sandyloo

ui googled it to, it sounds like it may be the type of thing that it will grow out of or surgery - are there any other puppies available?
6:35 am
rubyfoo

yes, they have two other puppies, but neither one is what I would have chosen. I'll take one of them, however, if needs be. I was just upset at lunch ND HUSBAND GOT REALLY NASTY
6:36 am

Hello everyone.

hi lynxx, I'm whining as usual
6:37 am
sandyloo

this is the place to do it ruby we are very sympathetic
6:38 am
rubyfoo

thank God for that! It's been a very bad period
6:38 am
Lizlin

I've got to go - busy day tomorrow then Canadian guests arrive for a week. Ruby, really hope things work out well. Sandy's right about you both missing Ruby - and that will affect your husband's reactions. Will be thinking of you and will look in over the next week when i can to find out how things are.
6:39 am
lynxxx

Seems to me Ruby that you aren't over Ruby s death yet. If this pup is not the one for you then why not wait until the right one comes along. Ruffie is still a pup and I am sure keeps you fully occupied. As for your husband - he is old and ailing, you know everything is revolving more and more around himself. You are doing very well to handle the situation.
6:39 am
lynxxx

bye Liz - hope the weather is good for your guests
6:39 am
sandyloo

ruby keep your spirit and remember that the Tour is coming in a few months
6:40 am
rubyfoo

you are probably right, lynxx. We were just so happy to have found Rafaella so quickly and she looks just like my first chow, Rosie
6:41 am
rubyfoo

I thought that was a sign
6:42 am
uusue2

Hi, all, so sorry to hear about the pup, ruby!
6:42 am

hi Sue

6:43 am
sandyloo

I so understand just be patient and it will work out and lynxx is right ruby
6:43 am
rubyfoo

these dogs are so fragile that we need to have 2 at a time
6:43 am
lynxxx

really? why are they fragile - they seem very robust to me.
6:44 am
rubyfoo

I think they are too inbred. Ruby lasted until 10 years, the best of any of our 6
6:44 am
sandyloo

there are breeds that do need to be kept two at a time - that japanese dog akitas are the same
6:45 am
rubyfoo

have you seen the movie Hachi? It's about a famous akita
6:45 am
sandyloo

no I haven't
6:46 am

Richard Gere stars and it's very touching
6:47 am

I am such a crier in movies that i avoid anything too moving, i am really pathetic
6:47 am

my kids say i need therapy
6:47 am
sandyloo

LOL
6:47 am
rubyfoo

me, too, sandy, but maybe tears are therapeutic.....
6:48 am
sandyloo

I feel happier after watching Sister Act and such - I hate crying
6:48 am
sandyloo

but Ruby some tears are definitely therapeutic
6:50 am

Politics is such a fickle thing
6:55 am

6:56 am
rubyfoo

I'm adopting that as my personal slogan
6:57 am
sandyloo

I was just playing a game (Serpentine) which is mainly inhabited by usa ites and i mentioned our election- this caused a great debate about the gun laws in the us and should felons have the right to vote until everyone left the game LOL
6:57 am
rubyfoo

nice going, sandy! Americans are crazy on that subject
6:57 am

I prefer Turnbull , and I do think Gillard has here heart in the right place but .... I dont know about the feds really , I only know about our state

and now it is time for crossy's tidbit of the day!!! but first a bit of info on it before i post the link... marina abramovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again.

At her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed ‘The Artist Is Present’ as part of the show, where she shared a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing and this is what happened..... http://tinyurl.com/at4zyqf

i also watched it with sound off(need new speakers) and was interestin trying to read them both.the man was happy to see her of course,still loved her,that is very clear,but also mourns for what was lost,what could of been but is also happy that she is ok and has found herself and is fufilled in her life.cannot read her though.only been married 20 years.cannot read women yet;))))

7:56 am
JBV

her reaction must be colored by knowing that she is "performing" and everyone is watching her. A strange situation. I wonder what happened after......
7:56 am
JBV

hi BR - we were wondering the same thing. Did they meet up afterwards?
7:56 am
crosshair

not coloured much i think.he is so focused and riveted on her that outside influences would be minor at most
7:57 am
o-o

My many therapists told me repeatedly I did not understand ... how could I understand another?
8:02 am
crosshair

a love that intense that has survived in him for that long would be like a time machine.it would take them both back in a heartbeat to times before the great wall and that last moment together on the wall saying goodbye would be clear and pure as when it happened.remember your first love? i do and that point in time when all was new and her face was foremost in your mind every day all day no matter what you were doing till you started presenting an aura that other could feel.strangers would smile at you as you ran though your day ,as you prayed for time to fly so you could meet again;)

hi min
7:36 pm
Minveryork

I was a ho 5/12 and I ho4/5d in on puzzle earlier and found 140 words. Then I must confe4/7 I used list to help me find 10 more words. Now here's a story.In Se 4/5ember of 1980, when my tw4/8 si6/18 was a kid, she was raking up some leaves that had been st6/30 about on the lawn. She raked over a ho6/21's ne4/4. The ow 5/18s of that ne 4/4 were not happy and she was stung by a bunch of ho 7/32. Fortunately, she is not pr5/12 to being allergic to bees,however, as she ran back to the house crying,she tripped and she tw 5/18ed her ankle. She made a not so wi4/8 choice to keep running and made her ankle worse. She we 4/9 for a long time.I am sure the ho6/21's found another place to re 6/18 after attacking my si6/18. Hubby is being a pe 4/5 and looking at me st 4/4ly because he wants the computer. I will give it to him so things do not get te 5/10. Now I am going to st 4/5 away from computer and go watch "The Untouchables", a movie about gangster Eliot Ne 4/4 while my hubby si 4/4 at computer and plays games. If I am not too tired and feel pe 4/5 enough,I'll return to the Babble websi4/4 to clue for the re4/4 of the ni4/4 after the movie. I hope you found more words,at least the easy on 4/4.

hi smores
8:42 pm
Lizlin

Hi stid, smores and Bugs :)
8:42 pm
stidmama

pretty much -- I am down to the last couple of weeks, still planning for lessons, but knowing that the kids are going to be "done" before the regular teacher gets back. I am also applying for a job at a different school that would finish out the year for me... that would be an "easier" grade (4th grade) but a more difficult situation as I would be replacing a long-term sub for the original teacher.
8:42 pm
stidmama

hey lizlin
8:43 pm
welki

hi folks
8:43 pm
stidmama

hey welki!
8:43 pm
Lizlin

Hi welki - sounds like you had a great babble meeting :)
8:43 pm
Bugsaw

hi Liz
8:44 pm
Bugsaw

so the teacher you are replacing now will be coming back? I was never sure and was starting to think they would let you end the year.
8:44 pm
stidmama

we weren't sure, either for a while.
8:45 pm
stidmama

I would have ended the year if the teacher weren't coming back... but since he is, I am looking for another long-term. It's harder in a lot of ways, but a lot more fulfulling in most ways.
8:45 pm
welki

we did, liz - wish i could do it more often :)
8:45 pm

maybe JBV was the one you didn't recognize? She's not on facebook so I couldn't tag her
8:49 pm
welki

the photo could use some editing - to get the glare streak out and fix our funky voodoo eyes, but it gets the point across - we had F.U.N. !!!
8:49 pm
stidmama

that's probably who that was!
8:49 pm
nrkii

oh nice, Welki!

8:56 pm
lbdawger

i'm pooped, and no veggies or vegetation to speak of other than my brain.
8:57 pm
lbdawger

st9 has to do with bug anatomy
8:57 pm
stidmama

sorry about the lack of plant life, LBD. I know it will show up for you eventually -- we are also (I can tell from the nibble-marks) getting a bumper-crop of slugs this year, thanks to the overly-mild weather.
8:57 pm
welki

if strict bugs infested the foundation of your home, you might have something that sounds like st9

9:11 pm
stidmama

I only facebook with distant friends... everyone else I either connect with in other ways, or we just don't connect. I am trying hard to be partway between the crowd of people who have no ability to wait and the crowd of people who still wonder how electric lights work...
9:13 pm

Not big on facebook either ruru
9:14 pm
rururocks

I really don't have any interest in Facebook.. not exactly sure why

9:16 pm
stidmama

I got sucked in to a couple of games I enjoyed for a while, but when I realized what huge time-wasters they were I dropped them.
9:16 pm
stidmama

Sort of like babble... I dare not log in most week nights! LOL
9:17 pm

I think that after "seeing" so many people here for so many years; we are like good old friends (for the most part). I'm hoping that we can go to Montana this summer (DH had better not get sick again!) and I can arrange to meet some Babblers there when we go to my niece's wedding.
10:05 pm
Nef

Where, cos?
10:05 pm

10:06 pm
Nef

I was set to meet up with lbd and Harpjane back in 2009 or 2010; but DH got sick and we had to cancel our trip (I missed an nephew's wedding that time)
10:07 pm
cosdem

<-- not that far from montana. would love to make up the chance to see nef
10:07 pm

Nef

nrkii

Ha! I'm not Nellie. Just a wannabe.
10:12 pm
Nef

cos, I understand. I had planned a whole bunch of stuff we could do that night; but I was unaware that you were deaf; and I would have been driving and taking you on a tour of the Cities in the dark (and I don't sign).
10:12 pm
cosdem

I love Vermont in June. Gets chilly enough for a sweater. I miss it :(
10:13 pm
cosdem

thats kinda why i backed out lol.. its a stupid thing.. i dont like telling people i cant hear. im sorry. its stupid. its an issue ive been working on.
10:17 pm
Nef

If I would have known, I would have tried to learn a smattering of signs for you. The uncle who raised me had a brother who was legally blind and also deaf and mute. He lived alone in downtown St. Paul and I used to know some short cuts so we could communicate; but Uncle Willy died in 1975 and I don't remember anything now
10:19 pm
cosdem

Well I hope for a chance to make up for it. I liked Minneapolis and want to visit again.
10:19 pm
nrkii

I started to learn sign years and years ago. Got the alphabet nailed. Find myself practicing it once in a while. But got sidetracked right about when I was moving into words.
10:19 pm
Nef

I know my daughter's old friend teaches deaf students and she could teach me something
10:21 pm
cosdem

People say ABCs are easiest but I find its the other way.. especially if you teach yourself.
10:21 pm
Nef

Let me know ahead of time and (if necessary) I'll even get her to translate for us (she lived across the street and called me Mom too.
10:22 pm
