cooee and g'day everyone. * hugs * sprite
1:20 am
sprite
hello darling *hugs*
1:20 am
grannyrose
how are you doing sweetie?
1:22 am
sprite
not too bad. Having to deal with a drama queen and not feeling like it. Am too old for that sh4 :)
1:22 am
grannyrose
oh dear. who's acting up now?
1:24 am
sprite
we are hosting the zentangle advent project. The lady in charge doesn't keep her promises and does not want to be questioned about it. Gets real snippy when you ask after deadlines. And now is saying she will do it allllll by herself if we keep this up...
1:24 am
sprite
I say, let her :)
1:26 am
grannyrose
oh for pete's sake. let her. she'll feel so hard done by but it will be all her own fault. not tea and sympathy time.
1:28 am
sprite
my thoughts exactly. For one thing, it means moderating the facebook group all through december. We have almost 3000 members. And each and every post has to get an answer from the admins. Or rather, admin, if that is what she wants. I hope she does not plan on sleeping much. We have members from all over the world, all time zones.
1:31 am
sprite
and all the drama is over the fact we said time is getting really short (we need to get the texts to the translators, cannot leave that last minute and the list must be published on nov 23). She feels that the drama in her life is reason enough not to meet deadlines, and that she does not have to let us know, we are to ask after her personal life. In a really nice way. Or else.
1:31 am
grannyrose
* soft chuckle * honey, just use those shoulders of yours, give a gallic shrug, and say sweetly of course whatever you want even when it is screamingly obvious it's not the best way.
1:32 am
sprite
yeah, something like that. Or I will give her what she says she wants and let her do it all alone. I have no horse in this race.
1:33 am
sprite
anyway, that kind of drama. Much ado about nothing. How are you doing?
1:33 am
grannyrose
and when it all goes pear-shaped, let the deafening silence tell her she is the only person responsible.
1:37 am
grannyrose
i'm going to sleep well tonight. after gym, Don and I took Shasha over to see the botanical gardens out at Cranbourne. Shasha hasn't been here for very long and is still learning english. thus she doesn't go out a lot because she feels sort of scared on her own, as would anybody dealing with the same situation. anyway I have walked for nearly 2 hours ( with quite a few sit- downs ) looking at the most incredible australian native plants and trees, all in flower. lots i have never seen before.
1:38 am
sprite
oh wow, sounds marvelous!
1:40 am
grannyrose
honey we have some marvelous flowering plants. some there were the deepest bright blue i have ever seen. cornflowers do not even come close to these.
1:41 am
sprite
sounds so beautiful
1:42 am
grannyrose
oh sweetie i so wish i could grow more natives. the clay soil here is lethal but i googled and found a list of natives which grow in clay. there's hope for me yet...lol
1:43 am
grannyrose
WTG SPRITE !!
1:43 am
sprite
it is hard if you do not have the right soil.
1:44 am
sprite
oh, caya has asked us to dogsit Lewi on all weekdays. She is going to study her sweet little behind off and hopes to finish half january. She is so brave.
1:45 am
grannyrose
you are such wonderful parents.
1:45 am
sprite
we have wonderful kids. Nowadays it is easy to be a good parent :)
1:45 am
grannyrose
and good for her. so hard to study as you become older.
1:47 am
sprite
it is. And she has Juno to take care of. Plus, Lauryn (Juno's sister) is half living with them again because she is severely depressed. It never ever stops. I told Caya I wished her a really really boring year, last New Year...
1:48 am
sprite
okay sweetie, big hugs, love you. And hug Don from me as well.
1:48 am
grannyrose
* hugs * i hope your day is kind to you.
