8:45 am
sprite

good afternoon, babblers
8:45 am
rururocks

wow a late arrival sprite?
8:46 am
sprite

very much so. Did a bit this morning, then we went to look at a possible home. Then the car died halfway there... tomorrow again a chance to look at the home.
8:46 am
rururocks

a new home?
8:46 am
rururocks

didn't you just build one?
8:47 am
sprite

yes. At the moment we are living in the home that our daughter is renting here. She has gone back to her partner. We need our own home... :D
8:47 am
rururocks

oh
8:48 am
sprite

nope. The tiny house could not be built, Rob has heart issues and the doctor forbids him to do any heavy work.
8:49 am
rururocks

isn't he young for heart issues?
8:49 am
sprite

he is 68. So yeah. But there you are. Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.
8:49 am
rururocks

wow.. i though you were a lot younger than me
8:50 am
sprite

I am 59.
8:50 am
rururocks

oh you just married an older guy Got it
8:50 am
sprite

:D
8:52 am
rururocks

my wife was older than me too
8:53 am
sprite

I have never paid much attention to age, tbh. Although the difference between 59 and 68 is different from the difference between, say, 30 and 39.
8:54 am
rururocks

yeah.. I didn't until now either.
8:54 am
rururocks

my ex is having a hard time in life right now.. lots of things are failing for her.
8:55 am
sprite

that is a struggle. Rob has trouble accepting that his age is starting to catch up with him. Are you and your ex still in eachother's lives?
8:55 am
rururocks

yeah.. I do lots of things for her
8:56 am
sprite

that is beautiful
8:56 am
rururocks

we're good friends again.. although I must admit it was a little rough going through the divorce
8:57 am
sprite

sounds like a very challenging thing to go through. I think it is beautiful you are friends again.
8:57 am
rururocks

it's awful... I'm never going through that again I tell you
8:58 am
phaeton

The town I used to live in is in the grid
8:58 am
sprite

sounds like a plan! I cannot imagine how that must be, to separate from someone you once loved enough to marry and then have to struggle through such a painful process.
8:59 am
sprite

hiya phae
9:01 am
phaeton

hi sprite
9:11 am
sprite

the car died because my love put screen cleaner fluid in the cool fluid tank... I keep seeing him do stuff like this, and it worries me.
9:12 am
rururocks

oh god. that's not good news
9:12 am
rururocks

have you had him tested and a work up?
9:12 am
sprite

a few weeks back I looked at him and he had put his shirt on backwards. With the buttons on the back.
9:13 am
sprite

he has been through the mill a lot lately, ru, for his heart, his lungs, his knees, oedema, it doesn't stop. But yes, he needs to be checked for this too. I am gently preparing him for it.
9:16 am
rururocks

those are alarming signs sprite
9:16 am
rururocks

it'd be best to do something about it now so they can help
9:16 am
sprite

they are. I am truly worried.
9:17 am
rururocks

delaying might cause some real problems .. just went through this with a good friend
9:18 am
sprite

yes, I agree. The gp is going to call him this week about the blood pressure test results, and I will let him make an appointment to talk this over with her.
9:18 am
sprite

am so sorry to hear that, ru. Must have been hard.
9:19 am
rururocks

it was hard and yet eerily beautiful to go through the process.
9:21 am
rururocks

as weird at that sounds
9:21 am
rururocks

good luck with Rob.. I hope it's nothing
9:21 am
sprite

I know. We lost a very dear friend of mine to early onset Alzheimer. It was just as you said.
9:22 am
sprite

thank you!
9:35 am
hokie carla

oh sprite, I'm sorry
9:36 am
sprite

thanks carla. Let's hope it won't go too fast.
9:36 am
hokie carla

amen
9:38 am
hokie carla

I came outside on the porch because mr. homie is sick and was coughing right across from me at the table.
9:38 am
sprite

ouch
9:40 am
hokie carla

it is super humid out here and first drink of my juice I saw a bug swimming in it. these are all minor complaints though in the grand scheme of things.
9:40 am
sprite

still unpleasant though
9:40 am
hokie carla

checking my coffee before each sip!
9:42 am
sprite

just ordered dinner to be delivered. Am pooped.
9:42 am
hokie carla

that's nice you can do that!
9:43 am
sprite

very nice :)
9:45 am
sprite

wow, all those Cs
9:45 am
hokie carla

I know, it's craptacular
9:46 am
hokie carla

I think 56 over 4 c's
9:46 am
sprite

madness
9:49 am
hokie carla

but I can't manage to find an E on the left
9:50 am
hokie carla

oh, I see 2
9:50 am
sprite

vowel words. Always hard.
9:50 am
hokie carla

yep
9:52 am
sprite

fireflies. Poofing with hugs.
9:52 am
hokie carla

well done, good night
9:56 am
hokie carla

of course now the other E is elusive
10:04 am
ursh

rose clued the ec7 earlier as "enviromental murder" which I thought was very clever
10:04 am
hokie carla

thanks, ursh. I think I have seen that one other time here but forgot about it.
10:11 am
hokie carla

HOET but 62 left. not easy peasy no matter what ruru says.
10:23 am
hokie carla

NTPN - actress who played debbie downer on SNL
10:38 am
Atalante

but the ec7 really is defined as that :)
10:40 am
hokie carla

so it was a very clever clue :D
10:43 am
rururocks

I didn't say this one was easy peasy
10:43 am
rururocks

but it wasn't super difficult either
10:44 am
hokie carla

it was a preemptive post
10:44 am
rururocks

oh shit. i gotta deal with that now too?
10:45 am
hokie carla

yep. as we have to deal with your phantom word gatekeeping. :D
10:45 am
rururocks

well someone has too
10:45 am
rururocks

has to that is
10:47 am
hokie carla

I am still finding words but they aren't coming fast so I do not think this one is easy.
10:49 am
MollyL

Carla, I rarely think these grids are easy. But there are all kinds here. Sometimes when a grid only has 45 words, people are asking for clues all day long.
10:49 am
jmcnrick

Hi all.
10:49 am
hokie carla

sometimes the really small ones are the hardest though
10:50 am
hokie carla

hey jmc
10:55 am
hokie carla

well, stalled at 30. 6-14-9-1 C3 E C3 S3 D2 E C3 i R4 T4 A3 F2

jmc! Glad to see you and hope you're doing well!
11:15 am
jmcnrick

hey Champ. Doing as well as one can knowing the military has taken over your colony. How's it going with you
11:16 am
ChampFit

All good here, thanks.
11:16 am
jmcnrick

Glad to hear it. I was just thinking that all the time I have spent on this chog gave me a good skill set for remote work! hahaha
11:18 am
ChampFit

Are you still working a lot?
11:20 am
jmcnrick

right now I am. It comes and goes. Later this month I will be traveling to Maine to do a workshop on communication.
11:21 am
ChampFit

Oooh...nice, cool, Maine! Lovely.
11:24 am
jmcnrick

haha so I hear. I went there on my honeymoon in 1984 and had ro buy a sweater.
11:24 am
penquis

where in Maine will you be going?
11:25 am
bichon

I was in Maine for 4th of July. It was wicked hot
11:25 am
penquis

where were you?
11:25 am
penquis

it's 78 and humid right now where I am....warmer inland....
11:25 am
bichon

central maine
11:26 am
jmcnrick

Deer Island. Oddly my B-I-L moved next do4 to a friend of mine there
11:26 am
penquis

ah inland does get hotter...
11:26 am
ChampFit

Wow...that's wild!
11:26 am
penquis

cool....Deer Isle is a nice place....shouldn't be too hot....
11:26 am
jmcnrick

My friends says it has been hot but I think my consceot of hot is probably different
11:26 am
penquis

probably...
11:26 am
jmcnrick

The oddest part is that they have yet to meet.
11:27 am
ChampFit

You're about to change that!
11:27 am
penquis

our summers have been warmer in recent years...
11:27 am
jmcnrick

yes. we are having lunch together.
11:28 am
penquis

should be fun...
11:28 am
jmcnrick

I hope so. NTL interesting since 1984 was the last time I was in Maine
11:29 am
jmcnrick

but thanks penq for reminding me to pack a sweater!
11:30 am
penquis

hah...you may not need one...
11:30 am
jmcnrick

well still better to have it! Especially if there is a.c which I rarely use
11:31 am
penquis

true...
11:31 am
penquis

and the weather here can change pretty quickly...
11:52 am
jmcnrick

I am getting nowhere with environmental murder. probably too long a word for my little brain
11:53 am
bichon

ecocide
11:53 am
penquis

yup...
11:53 am

12:42 pm

i wonder if there even are any customer service people at all or if they just leave you on hold forever
12:42 pm
ChampFit

I believe in you hursh. You can outlast 'em!

12:58 pm
ChampFit

I don't have any, but still need 2
12:59 pm
hurshy

so it's funny, they gave me a choice of five genres of hold music when i went on hold in the first place
1:00 pm
hurshy

but then it seems whatever you pick you are stuck with
1:00 pm
hurshy

they don't come back and say "would you like to switch it up?"
1:00 pm
hurshy

even if you are on hold for over an hour
1:01 pm
ChampFit

Torture.
1:02 pm
ChampFit

The nail salon I go to has HORRIBLE music. It's some kind of instrumental, weird background stuff. Can't even explain it. If they weren't so good and fast, I'd go elsewhere.
1:03 pm
hurshy

i have an easy solution to that problem
1:03 pm
hurshy

i just don't go to nail salons
1:03 pm
hurshy

lol
1:04 pm
ChampFit

I think it looks more professional. It's a pain in the butt, because I have very little patience, but am always glad when it's done.
1:04 pm
hurshy

i don't really paint my nails either
1:04 pm
hurshy

just let 'em be
1:04 pm
hurshy

but then i have noticed a funny thing
1:04 pm
hurshy

in terms of their length
1:05 pm
hurshy

they go fine fine fine fine fine for days and then suddenly one day WAY TOO LONG AND DRIVING ME CRAZY
1:05 pm
ChampFit

Ha! It's the same with the stuff I get. I have mine dipped And sometimes they don't trim as much. Then one day it's impossible to type!
1:06 pm
hurshy

idk what those people with the uber-long fake ones do
1:06 pm
hurshy

how do you eat, even? seems like it would make everything in life very hard
1:06 pm
ChampFit

I always wonder how they take care of bathroom business.
1:06 pm
hurshy

that too
1:07 pm
ChampFit

Apparently having your nails done is now a 'back to school' thing. When I was at the salon last week, kids were everywhere.
1:08 pm
hurshy

ah
1:10 pm
hokie carla

1:11 pm

Oooh...just found co5/16...similar to the sc you tried earlier
1:11 pm

Closed out that far right C
1:17 pm

First of all, since when is the middle of August back to school time? Second, anyone over 40 who remembers getting your nails done to go back to school, raise your hand. *Hand down
1:19 pm
hokie carla

in a lot of places, since forever
1:19 pm
ChampFit

In Texas, the earliest they can start is the 3rd week in August. This is typical. And still too crazy hot. IDK about the nails. Just regretted being there mid-day. Next year I'll time it better!
1:19 pm
hokie carla

they overdo everything these days. see: promposals
1:19 pm
ChampFit

Heck yeah they do...and homecoming, and everything else.
1:20 pm

Also not a fan of gender reveals.
1:20 pm

me either. and everything to do with weddings just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
1:22 pm
ChampFit

Agreed. The one I'm planning now isn't, but that's because we aren't crazy. :)
1:22 pm
hokie carla

nc schools are like the monday closest to aug 26, va schools where I grew up are early august. tn schools next to where I grew up are aug 1, which is crazy to me.
1:23 pm
hokie carla

I think school has started here in sc too. I've never lived anywhere that's after labor day. I think that's a northern thing.
1:23 pm
ChampFit

It seems weird to start them, then immediately get Labor Day off.
1:24 pm
ChampFit

Today there was a kid and his grandma sitting on the driveway waiting for the bus at 9 a.m. They absolutely missed it and had no clue, because I didn't see another kid anywhere in the neighborhood.
1:24 pm
hokie carla

for some reason I have like r/weddingshaming and r/bridezilla show up in my reddit feed and those posts are crazy
1:24 pm
ChampFit

But they're funny as hell!
1:26 pm
hokie carla

one was like the anti bridezilla and she was worried she would upset her bridesmaids. everyone was like, uh no, you sound very reasonable.
1:26 pm
ChampFit

We picked up the dress over the weekend, and she chose a wedding veil. The bride in the room next to us had an entourage of about 7 people. Cray-cray.
1:27 pm
MollyL

When I was a kid school always started after Labor Day.
1:28 pm

Found another 7! Still need 3.

The sideways picture in my profile is from a wedding. They paid $3000 to have an artist do watercolors of all the guests. Lovely, but NOT DOING IT AT OURS.

hokie carla

the worst one I read on wedding shaming, molly, was a 19yo college student saying her sister was having an adults only wedding and didn't invite her because she was not 21. but then she sent a link to the registry and argued with the sister that she expected a gift from her.
1:35 pm
hokie carla

of note: the wedding was dry so why would a 19 yo family member not be invited? since when are people not invited expected to give a gift? since when are children expected to give a gift?
1:36 pm
ChampFit

I saw several like that. And the parents always think that surely no one means THEIR children should be excluded.
1:37 pm
MollyL

Okay, I just took a quick look at wedding shaming on Reddit and I am appalled at the number of posts about mothers of the groom wearing white to the wedding.
1:37 pm
hokie carla

yes, that's most of the posts
1:37 pm
ChampFit

And stepmoms, and other related people. How dim ARE people?
1:37 pm
hokie carla

yes, crazy
1:38 pm
MollyL

And they are not just white dresses. They are lacy, bridal look-a-like dresses. Creepy.
1:39 pm
MollyL

My daughter in law would have said NFW to that quick in a hurry.
1:39 pm
ChampFit

although, I don't understand why the brides get so upset. No one can upstage a bride. They just look ridiculous trying.
1:39 pm
hokie carla

good point
1:40 pm
hurshy

phew
1:40 pm
hurshy

finally got a person after like 1.5 hours on hold
1:40 pm

1:41 pm
MollyL

My daughter in law asked the Moms (there were four of us, both sets of parents remarried) to wear a certain color blue to go with her color scheme. I was the only Mom who did.
1:41 pm
hurshy

and they started a "case" to find out what's up
1:41 pm
ChampFit

Let the investigation begin!
1:42 pm
hurshy

oops ha

1:42 pm
hurshy

ooops there's another one
1:42 pm
ChampFit

off with your head!
1:42 pm
hokie carla

but then there are also the brides who send out dress codes and attendees are like, can I wear this floral dress or is there too much white in it? like, how can that be confused with white?
1:43 pm
ChampFit

Molly...while I understand the whole 'color scheme' concept, I'm not a fan. Carla...yes!!! Try-hards!
1:43 pm
hurshy

i didn't even think about what other people would wear at my wedding. whatever they wore was ok by me.
1:43 pm
ChampFit

Yes, just please be fully clothed.
1:44 pm

well i didn't have anyone weird in my life who might not be, lol
