The difference between the US and Canada: the pres. accepts a billion dollar plane from Qatar and not much is said, the PM accepts a free holiday from a family friend and the sh** hits the fan.

12:23 am

Nan, the orange hog felon shitbag, who currently is pretending to be our president, is a tinpot dictator and has a huge number of corrupt enablers. if it were otherwise, the scandal would get him impeached and incarcerated. we have no rule of law anymore.

12:27 am

cybernan

hi sprite

12:28 am

cybernan

makes one wonder what it would take to get him impeached, gingentle. We sympathize

12:29 am

gingentle

I am hoping for a skilled assassin. I think that will be the only way we will ever be rid of him.

grannyrose

cooee and g'day. * hugs * sprite. how are you and Rob going today?

2:04 am

sprite

hi honey, sorry, I was afk

2:05 am

sprite

we are okayish. Rob still down with the foot thing and his knees, and I am in my second day after overtaxing so not in a great place. I need to get groceries today, too, and I just had a nasty chore that sapped my energy. Nothing major, just too much. And you?

2:05 am

grannyrose

no probs. i'm worried for you both and how you are coping.

2:05 am

sprite

today, not too great. But still treasuring the memories of our lovely Sunday with the kids.

2:07 am

grannyrose

considering i am 4 weeks away from next infusion i think i'm doing okay. pain-wise not too bad today, but the warmish weather is due to finish soon. once that sunshine disappears i'm not so good emotionally.

2:08 am

sprite

*sending you heaps of emotional sunlight*

2:09 am

grannyrose

thanx sweetie. and today i managed to fold, sort, and put away 3 weeks worth of clean laundry.

2:09 am

sprite

well done

2:10 am

grannyrose

i was sitting as i did it. that does help.

2:10 am

sprite

I always fold sitting down.

2:11 am

grannyrose

ugh, went and saw the gastroenterologist. did i tell you?

2:12 am

sprite

I knew you had to have that done one of these days. So it is behind you! Must be horrific to go through.

2:14 am

grannyrose

procedure is in about 5 weeks. i have to come off three of my meds beforehand. and he wants me to take movichol and coloxyl and senna for 4 days BEFORE i do the prep. i don't think i will be leaving the house around that time.

2:15 am

sprite

wow that is really nasty. Sounds like it would be better to have you in hospital during those days

2:15 am

grannyrose

plus he is admitting me overnight the day before. the prep stuff is full of electrolytes. all of which have the potential to set my heart off doing wierd things.

2:16 am

sprite

truly nasty

2:17 am

grannyrose

i would rather go through this than the alternative. my grandmother died from bowel cancer, and my father died from oesophageal cancer.

2:18 am

sprite

yep. Really necessary, not fun

2:19 am

grannyrose

and it is every 5 years, not 2 years. i really need the reassurance of knowing what my body is doing without my permission.

2:21 am

grannyrose

i was so happy to see your pics and read about the kids. just lovely.

2:21 am

sprite

fireflies. Poofing with hugs, hun.

jeepers

gingentle, feel sad for you that you live with all that hatred wishing someone be assassinated....sad

6:06 am

Sugrraleona

Jeepers - I agree with you 100 percent - instead of finding the good, those peeps just keep clinging to the bad - and incorrect news, too. I'm keeping off social media these days because I'm finding people keep posting crap without doing the research.

6:07 am

jeepers

sugrraleona, totally agree.

6:46 am

MollyL

I can understand not being a Trump fan, but the negative things people are spewing just spill into the collective soul and make things worse.

6:53 am

Sugrraleona

Yes Molly exactly - I love the person for the person not for who they vote for and some people are making it hard for me to continue loving them - ya know?

6:55 am

crosshair

We have found the good in Trump. Trump and his administration have brought Canadians together like nothing else could. We have eliminated most of the inter-provincial trade barriers that used to eat up 2B dollars in red tape. You distilleries and craft brewers are seeing a massive surge in sales, and our shop/travel Canadian is keeping billions of dollars in canada while allowing small businesses to grow at an unorecidented rate. We are diversifying our international trade with like-minded countries, and have learned the hard way to not have all of our trade eggs in one basket, and are making deals to secure ourselves going forward. None of this would have come to pass without Trump doing what he does.

We will not bend the knee nor kiss the ring. :)

7:00 am

NANCY

My very best to your country which I have always been so fond of since I was born and raised in Detroit and spent many days in Canada throughout my early years.

7:00 am

crosshair

Ty, Nancy. :)

7:01 am

crosshair

We pray for our American cousins.

My mother and uncles were born there so have many ties to your great land.

Also a shout out to Carney, who showed incredible restraint during the public part of the meeting. He most certainly earned his pay that day!

7:06 am

periwinkle

good morning all. on a more positive note I got wordle in 2 today!

7:06 am

NANCY

loved the never say never and his reply of never, never, never, never

7:06 am

crosshair

Yaaa!

7:07 am

crosshair

I love his "I talked with the owners of Canada, and they said no." Comment.

7:07 am

periwinkle

is the 2nd ta7 a compound?

7:08 am

NANCY

YES, looks like you have a really good leader.

7:10 am

crosshair

We needed a numbers man at this time, and even tough he lacks political exoerience, we think he is the right P.M at the right time.

7:11 am

Sugrraleona

Peri, I don't have it yet :)

7:11 am

periwinkle

ok

7:11 am

periwinkle

He seems to be doing ok and is very capable of learning quickly.

7:13 am

crosshair

We have been the "canary in the coalmine" when dealing with Trump, and you can becsure that the rest of thevworld is watching, so we must do our best.

7:14 am

NANCY

Too bad our monster does not care in the least about our citizens and country and just wants to burn it to the ground.

7:16 am

crosshair

Nice chatting with you, Nancy, but I best stop there with the politics for now. Some babblers do not like it being talked about in the chog too much.

7:16 am

NANCY

our cowardly congress obviously does not have a spine and does not have the courage to stand up to a bully. Hail to Canada who did that very thing.

7:17 am

NANCY

yes, back to the dogs and cats chat

7:18 am

crosshair

We have a pair of chocolate labs. :)

7:18 am

NANCY

hahahahaa

7:19 am

NANCY

labs are great dogs, have had three

7:20 am

crosshair

We feed them a wonderful food called TLC. It is an all natural dry kibble made right here in Canada. Sadly our American friends have to pay more for it these days.

7:22 am

NANCY

thought we were aborting talk of politics

7:23 am

Sorry. My bad. I will behave. :)

7:29 am

crosshair

The act of walking like a cat, I suppose.

7:46 am

ChampFit

Just found a ta 7 with a similar ending, fyi.

7:52 am

ChampFit

9:41 am

hokie carla

our neighbors have a white boxer. I didn't know they existed until then. there's also a doberman which I didn't know was a doberman because its ears are undocked.

9:42 am

hokie carla

the boxer wants to kill winston every time we go out and it's out

9:44 am

BzznBea

White boxers aren't recognized by the AKA

9:45 am

hokie carla

they're so bouncy, I'm sure this one could jump the fence if she tried

9:45 am

hokie carla

I mean, she does try but not enough.

9:46 am

BzznBea

The boxer bounce is a thing.

9:48 am
