morning babblers

12:53 am

grannyrose

goedemorgen lieve vriend. welkom bij het spel.

12:54 am

sprite

good day my darling, thank you. How are you doing today?

12:54 am

mkg

hi from japan

12:54 am

sprite

hiya mkg

12:54 am

grannyrose

quite goodly thanks. and your dear self?

12:55 am

grannyrose

hey mkg. are you on a holiday?

12:55 am

sprite

stressed. Moving day today. Rob has already left with the moving van, I am giving myself this babble time before I go prepare the house for the influx of boxes. I have trauma related to moving, as you know, so I am doing my level best not to pannic.

12:56 am

sprite

panic*

12:58 am

grannyrose

slowly, slowly darling. do what you can. please do not put this stress on yourself. it will happen, maybe not everything today, but it will happen.

12:59 am

sprite

yeah, that is not the panic. The panic is trauma related. So rather ephemeral. One thing I have learned in living with cptsd: logic does not help at all in battling panic.

1:00 am

mkg

each of my grandkids gets a free trip with me after age 13. this is the one two of the grandsons chose. so we are in kyoto. we did tokyo and have a nother week.

1:00 am

mkg

more than a week left. we do 14 days.

1:00 am

sprite

how lovely, mkg.

1:01 am

grannyrose

have you got your morning cuppa there? take a sip. deep breath. relax your shoulders, roll them. let the past stay where it is. this is today. a new day. and like the champ you are, you are going to do this standing on your head.

1:02 am

mkg

one of the 21 year olds is too busy so far to have chosen. another one has a business and wants to devote his time to that while it is going good. another three have yet to choose. my husband traveled a lot for 47 years of work and so prefers to not join us. but he is welcome. but he has been to japan more than 5 times.

1:02 am

mkg

i am blessed that i can afford this.

1:02 am

sprite

yeah, I will, lol. I have learned that acknowledging the panic helps. Just telling myself: yes darling, this is panic. It is old, it is not needed, but it does feel real and current, so you have to be very very kind to yourself.

1:03 am

mkg

now i can walk miles. but the time is drawing near when i will need to take taxis.

1:03 am

grannyrose

no logic used. just look at this lovely new day you have been given. ugly task associated with trauma. but you are going to very firmly put it away from you.

1:03 am

sprite

awesome, mkg! So glad you are taking this opportunity.

1:03 am

mkg

ok all, need help with the re 7. hmmm guess it is too early.

1:03 am

mkg

life is short and precious.

1:04 am

mattygroves

RE7 - you are not 'dependent' on help, rather you are re7 on it...(synonyms, really)

1:04 am

grannyrose

re 7. you can DEPEND on me to give you a good clue.

1:04 am

sprite

not too early for clues, but I do not have it yet

1:04 am

sprite

1:06 am

mattygroves

1:06 am

grannyrose

1:06 am

mkg

1:06 am

1:14 am

sprite

awww sweet

1:14 am

dcseain

I look asleep, but I wear bifocals, and was just using the bifocal to see the screen.

1:15 am

grannyrose

mind you, it is the biggest case of animal neglect we have ever seen..... NOT!!

1:15 am

dcseain

LOL

1:17 am

dcseain

the grey one is asleep on my shoulder, and gradually fully relaxing; I keep hearing his paw sliding down the cushion of the couch.

1:17 am

dcseain

and my right ear is loving the warmth of his front legs

1:18 am

grannyrose

btw sprite, i asked Kerry about her ginger beer scones. she says just use the recipe for lemonade scone, but substitute ginger beer in, and she adds a pinch of nutmeg to add to the zip.

1:18 am

dcseain

oh that sounds lovely.

1:19 am

sprite

sounds good. Now I need the recipe for lemonade scones, lol

1:19 am

grannyrose

now i just have to find a way to email you Flo Bjelke-Petersons pumpkin scones. oh my, i'm drooling just writing about them.

1:20 am

dcseain

new the orang one is here, having eaten.

1:20 am

sprite

1:20 am

dcseain

I really should have fed them before I went to games night.

1:20 am

dcseain

a rare orange tabby girl.

1:21 am

grannyrose

oh, okay dcseain.

1:21 am

grannyrose

yes, i thought all gingers were boys. something in the genes.

1:22 am

Kamanjah

How cool to find an orange girl! Hubby had one and she was such a pretty girl.

1:22 am

Kamanjah

Hi everyone!

1:22 am

dcseain

she found me while I was playing Pokemon Go. A small mew to my right.

1:22 am

grannyrose

Kam ! {{{{ hugs }}}}}}

1:22 am

sprite

hiya Kam :)

1:22 am

dcseain

I carried her home in my palm.

1:22 am

dcseain

she was bloated from starvation

1:22 am

dcseain

hi, kam

1:23 am

ursh

interesting that gingers are usually boys and calicos are usually girls - my sister rescued a mom and kittens and there are 2 ginger girl babies - mom is a calico

1:23 am

grannyrose

how tiny she must have been.

1:23 am

sprite

I didn't know pokemon go worked for kitties too

1:23 am

grannyrose

wow urshy. that's amazing!

1:23 am

dcseain

her body was the length of my palm, and her had lolled between my fingers. She ate close to a volume of her of food when I got home.

1:23 am

sprite

hiya ursh

1:23 am

dcseain

she was about 4wks old then.

1:24 am

Kamanjah

That little girl needed you and you rescued her. She's lucky.

1:24 am

dcseain

hi, ursh

1:24 am

grannyrose

* eye roll * SPRITE !!

1:24 am

dcseain

1:24 am

sprite

1:24 am

dcseain

I'm one of four I know who has a cat from 14703 Ferndale RD in Dale City, VA. There's a lot of feral cats there.

1:25 am

ursh

hello all - we have sunshine today after weeks of summer rain - everything looks so green and clean

1:25 am

dcseain

here, the trees are bare, and the high was 34F/2C

1:25 am

grannyrose

my little girl was about 4 weeks old when i found her alone in a gutter full of mud. dingo/doberman cross. she was so clever. walked on the leash when she was just 6 weeks old.

1:26 am

dcseain

I'm watching a 12Tone video about Green Day's song Holiday. It is very interesting if one is into music theory and pop punk. It'll be on YouTube next week.

1:26 am

grannyrose

all the trees are bare, and the sky is grey... just an earworm for you all

1:27 am

dcseain

how lovely, rose

1:27 am

ursh

here we regularly go up to 30 to 34 C but the humidity is a killer in summer

1:27 am

dcseain

california dreaming on such a winter's day!

1:27 am

grannyrose

yay! that's my man! he know da words...

1:27 am

sprite

I'd be safe and warm...

1:28 am

dcseain

we do too, ursh, as high as 40-42 in Summer. Most of Summer here is less humid than when I was young.

1:28 am

dcseain

I went out in long pants, shoes, heavy coat, scarf, hat today. I was glad to come in to warmth.

1:29 am

grannyrose

the tropics have moved in the southern hemishere. they now occupy most of Australia down the east coast. the humidity is wretched.

1:29 am

dcseain

oh, crap. I need to take meds. am tired. I forgot to do that when I fed the cats.

1:29 am

ursh

but we do have lovely winters - seldom goes below 17C

1:30 am

grannyrose

* giggle* well feed them to the cats, saves double handling...lol

1:30 am

dcseain

I'm at about 38.5 degrees North.

1:30 am

dcseain

no, I need my meds.

1:31 am

grannyrose

darn... which one of you drained my glass. now i need a refill.

1:31 am

dcseain

my brain is quiet, and my ADHD and depression are under control. I've not felt this state in decades.

1:31 am

dcseain

still getting used to it.

1:31 am

grannyrose

so happy to read that dcseain. you deserve some peace.

1:31 am

sprite

fireflies and poofing with hugs

1:32 am

dcseain

ciao and congrats, sprite

1:32 am

grannyrose

1:32 am

grannyrose

* hugs * my darling. holding you in my cyber arms. nothing will harm you this day.

1:33 am

Kamanjah

DC, I'm glad you are feeling better. Depression sucks.

8:33 am

medusa

8:33 am

medusa

there are only 2 as 6s

8:33 am

hokie carla

oh, got it. think of two ice creams coming out of a machine together

8:37 am

medusa

thank you. Got it

8:37 am

hokie carla

thank you for bringing it up

8:45 am

MollyL

Good clue Carla

8:46 am

hokie carla

wasn't sure what soft serve was like in UK though

8:47 am

Sophie214

Good morning all.....thanks for that ice cream clue!

8:47 am

medusa

very similar if not the same carla

8:47 am

hokie carla

hey sophie, is it cold over there in nashville?

8:47 am

hokie carla

good to know, medusa!

8:48 am

medusa

a lot of things are the same. We just use different words over here for some things.

8:49 am

Sophie214

yes, Carla...... better toay but 20s overnight

8:49 am

hokie carla

yeah, sometimes it's like, is this the same language? do you all call it soft serve ice cream or something else?

8:49 am

medusa

we call it soft scoop

8:49 am

Sophie214

Medusa I have learned a lot of British words from watching Amazon Prime murder mysteries.

8:50 am

hokie carla

interesting, since it's not actually scooped.

8:50 am

medusa

Oh I love them. I watch a lot of true crime on netflix too.

8:51 am

hokie carla

I have watched 20+ seasons of midsomer murders

8:51 am

medusa

over here we do have scoops in shops for it. over here you can buy scoops that make balls of icecream

8:51 am

hokie carla

and then I got into this NZ one, Brookwood Mysteries, or something

8:52 am

MollyL

We have scoops too but they don't serve the sot ice cream very well. That comes out of a dispenser.

8:52 am

MollyL

*Soft ice cream

8:52 am

hokie carla

yeah, we have ice cream scoops that you dip into a tub and that is called hand scoops, so the soft serve comes out of a machine

8:53 am

medusa

never got in to mid summer murders.

8:53 am

MollyL

A soft scoop would be a plop

8:53 am

hokie carla

LOL, I've heard of boozy milkshakes but not sot ice cream

8:53 am

medusa

ok. Love these sort of chats. Love learning about other countries

8:53 am

hokie carla

me too

8:53 am

MollyL

When I was in college mud slides were the thing

8:54 am

rururocks

soft scoop sounds like a brand of kitty litter

8:54 am

hokie carla

remind me what's in the mudslide...

8:54 am

medusa

LOL.

8:54 am

MollyL

Vodka, coffee liqueur, Irish cream, and heavy cream

8:55 am

hokie carla

hmm, I might try that

8:55 am

MollyL

They are very good, but too rich for me to drink a whole one

8:55 am

medusa

Now that sounds so good. Love Baileys irish cream.

8:56 am

MollyL

In a good bar you will get shaved chocolate on the top

8:56 am

MollyL

I like Baileys in coffee

8:57 am

MollyL

I do that on Christmas morning. Great way to start the day.

8:58 am

rururocks

how many calories in a mudslide

8:58 am

hokie carla

sounds like a great deal

8:59 am

MollyL

How many calories, only you would think of that Ru

9:00 am

hokie carla

phantoms creole and leone

9:01 am

rururocks

820 calories :D

9:01 am

hokie carla

yeah, I'd rather have a delicious dessert

9:02 am

MollyL

Those things are like a dessert

9:02 am

MollyL

With a kick

9:03 am

MollyL

Ru will have carrots and celery

9:03 am

hokie carla

yuck

9:03 am

hokie carla

well I would eat them but only with ranch

9:03 am

rururocks

ru will have a martini one olive

9:04 am

hokie carla

that really sounds yuck

9:05 am

rururocks

a gin martini sounds yuck?

9:05 am

MollyL

I can handle vodka martinis. Gin gives me the gickies.

9:05 am

rururocks

it's gluten free

9:05 am

hokie carla

not a big olive fan

9:07 am

MollyL

Olives soaked in brandy are amazing.

9:10 am

rururocks

I've never tried that

9:10 am

rururocks

i'm doing a dinner next weekend with seared cardamom tuna over a nicoise salade with smoked olives

9:11 am

hokie carla

ok, post a pic

9:11 am

rururocks

homemade dressing.. that is really delicious

9:11 am

rururocks

that's the first course

9:16 am

hokie carla

ok, we're all patiently waiting for the remaining courses

9:17 am

rururocks

grilled beef filet (akaushi) over caramelized onions, shitake mushrooms and oven roasted carrots. Broccoli cheddar casserole ... then a salted caramel panna cotta for dessert with caramel cookies

9:18 am

hokie carla

ok, you reeled me back in

9:19 am

hokie carla

wait, so you can rewin, but you can't relose

9:19 am

MollyL

Nothing but ultra fancy at Chez Ru

9:19 am

hokie carla

I think we have mentioned that before, but just pointing it out

9:20 am

rururocks

that's a straight ahead dinner molly.. fancy is a lot more than this

9:20 am

hokie carla

lol, sounds pretty fancy to me

9:20 am

hokie carla

those crazy californians

9:20 am

rururocks

sorry we get fresh produce

9:20 am

MollyL

That is way fancy for most people who eat pot roast and casseroles regularly

9:21 am

rururocks

i tend to eat simply most of the time, but like to put on the show with friends coming over

9:21 am

rururocks

i've gotten to be a much better cook in the last five years

9:21 am

MollyL

Most of the time you mention what you are cooking I have to look it up

9:23 am

rururocks

i finally made a dish with tofu that I could eat

9:23 am

rururocks

I normally hate tofu

9:23 am

hokie carla

hard to do IMO

9:24 am

rururocks

i agree

9:24 am

rururocks

it does come out a bit too salty but it was really good

9:24 am
