"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Hey Blue and Missy....

we are making a salt dough WIZARD candle holder!!!!!! Now, there's a thing you don't learn every day. Boring boring boring as some would say. HA

Missy - good on the little fella - good to see you smiling girlie.

BabyBlue - have a fab day x

Great news, missy. So glad to hear you being a bit more relaxed.

Brooke -- Still sending positive, warm thoughts and prayers to you and your Kim. <an aside... mine has jewelry in her nose that wasn't the a couple weeks ago>

MizIzz -- I expect to see a picture of that candle holder when it's done :wink:

I'm gonna be scarce for the next few days. It's a good kinda scarce 'cuz I get to spend lots and lots of time with some of my favorite folks. I'm sure you'll all do a wonderful job of night watch over the captain (speaking of which.... isn't it close to nap time?)

Be safe, be well, have fun, and keep your chins up. Hugs to all. Special hugs to those who really need them.

I'll see you in a few.

Hey shipmates remember me!

yep I am on line and am so pleased! Off to Puppy party tonight so not sure if I will be able to get back on line but I am finally around!!!!!

Star is doing really well although the BT engineer was very nervous of her, and she is so small. She is so loved and pampered!

Love and hugs to you all

:wink:

Hi Black Tulip, welcome back on board, hope you have entertaining puppy party.

Captain to answer your query, yes I got done again today, ddxx is becoming and expert in putting the Eagle back in his box. (that should read perch )

Mismi great to read your post about the little bloke, he'll be as right as rain within a few days. Worrying at the time though.

Also Brooke, thinking about you too, hang in there girlie, your prayers will be answered.

To the rest of the gang, ship ahoy, have a nice day.

Oh and I shouldn't forget our great philosopher tryagain, nice to see you too putting in a long awaited appearance. Trust all is well with you and yours.

So good to see so many aboard! Looks like we've got a "full deck"! Now we've got a reason to celebrate!:
Tulip is back! YAY!! ... Mis-'s Sboy is back to 99%(?) and Brooke's sister Kim and the twins are hangin' in there! Hadn't seen Bill or ehBeth 'til recently either!
And we can always celebrate a Dutchy OR DeeDee victory in Jinky Pops!
Shoot! Now I've gone and lost my train of thought! Oh well, Thing 1 has a friend over and they are giggling about the house. Thing 2 is out & about the neighborhood. He got so dirty yesterday, he needed to rinse BEFORE his tubby and then left a nice bit of dirt in the bottom of the tub - boys! He said they were having a "dirt war"!
Anyway, books / procrastinating is, has and will be the order of the day! Got spoiled having 2 weeks off. Now I have no break until late Aug./early Sept!
Ooh, and I've just seen baby grass growing in the dirt & straw that is my back yard! Woo-hoo!!
Have a great yabberin' day and I'll catch you in about and hour or so? Half hour? Ok, maybe five minutes!!

the insomnia bug has seemed to conquer the sleepy bug..or is it jst 2day??

about to bid a bye to this city, dunno why bye is always painful no matter what..I smile as i remember when i was scared of this city..its rush, its pollution, its heartlessness, its indiscipline..had loved to see life through the cozy cool glasses wherein you just wntd to be another flower..happy and content as long as u r there and then withering one fine morning with no complaints..bt ths city makes u unconsciously love the life of a thorn!

This is what welcomes you in the morning as u reach the station to catch the train for your office..



..

this is the slum life to greet you.



BUT:..this is also mumbai



people in the fortune 500 list would be living here..
the greatest theme parks...
the most grand pub, the cream..thrives here..

mediocrity is the only stuff thats not accepted...

u can find 7 people living their life in a single room..u can find a couple living in a 17 room mansion..

this is one city that ive seen which lets you struggle for life just to see what its all about...

vbv - Hi there - I would so love to go to Mumbai - It looks like real life and real living - thank you for sharing the pictures of your world with us - what an amazing insight into another world - In London we are just in the rat race of work , money,getting the next latest gadget and it is as if the meaning of real life has gone - the sense of family, time together and friends, tears and laughter are behind the veneer - you see reality and life every day and I am sure you are a blessed person because of it.xx

Thanks All! Its great to be back on board again!

Puppy party fine, lots of big puppies and my little girl, who was so laid back, and just slept through most of it. She is wide awake now and wanting to play! We just want to go to bed. But wouldn't change her for the world.

My son leaves his school in a few weeks to enter the world of really big schools! His birthday is next Tuesday, he'll be 11 but still my baby. My daughter is now a teenager, her birthday was on the 4th July. She had a great day.

Verbivor Mumbai looks amazing, full of life and energy.

Speak soon gotta go play :wink:

Busy relearning math that I never got in High school. It's been keeping me busy all day and night. Talk about burning the candle at both ends Wish you and your kids all the very best for this and future years. I pray that they get better schooling than I did, I feel like my heads going to burst Information overload, I hope I didn't leave it to smoky on the Captains thread. Chow all and have a great weekend. :wink:

Thanks BT nice to have you back with the crew

Morning crew, just a quick fly by, busy day ahead and leaving for town shortly. Great posts overnight, thanking you all, especially verbivore to show us part of her world. Quite amazing. Wishing you well my dark eyed beauty.

Trust you all had or are having agreatday/night. I'm off.

Hello sweet folkses!

I have put all three of my boys to bed. S is definitely better. Still had a bit of a tummy ache and did not do well at supper but it was a good day for him. You could see he was so much happier. Just taking it slow...his feet are fine. He drank well today which is good. J told me he had a tummy ache at supper...but it was hard to tell if he didn't want to eat his food or really had one. I decided not to worry about it until I saw other signs. G-baby is as right as rain. Quite happy and into much today.

I am packing up and getting ready to leave tomorrow afternoon. Will be gone until Monday.

Take care and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs to all!
Missy

Have a wonderful time Darlin' Girl - you deserve it and the boys will love it. Will miss you, but look forward to your stories on your return sweetie.

Love ya girlie xxxxxxxxxxxx

Nite :wink:

Bon voyage, mis-! Have a great time! So glad to hear S boy is improving! Makes ya feel good when they feel better, no? Like that feeling after a bad storm and everything is new and green again. As a mom, havin' my young un's feel better always makes me feel better.
So glad to see you here, FQ! And Tulip! Hoping you'll be permanent members of the crew!
Verb -, you absolutely wax poetic when you talk about Mumbai. You truly are a 'verbivore'! Happy moving! May the road by smooth and not bump your stuff around too much!
Red, keep pluggin' away at it. I KNOW you can do it!! We're behind you 100% - if you need to kvetch, or heck, throw a math problem!
Hey, Dutch, like ships in the night, we are.
And it's always good to see and hear from you, cap'n Iz -. You're the glue that holds this tub together!
Now, where is our Brooke-y? Hope no news is good news on the family front. Prayers are beings sent, sweetie.

Hi mismi, hope you have a great weekend away, and stay of the Margaritas.

Queen Dev we seem to be sailing in different directions these days and missing our rendez-vous. Just to let you know F/Q and Black Tulip are long time members of the crew.

Went to an IT show today and spotted an absolute bargain, a 22 inch monitor for $225.00, how does that compare with the UK or US? Your views would be appreciated.

Oh Izzie, there is no end to it, ddxx did it again.

You all have a great day.

Good day Izzie, and crew. Friday morning here in Michigan.
No plans this weekend. That sounds nice. Oh, what's this, phone's unplugged, what?...
What was suppose to be a relatively simple week, turned out to wreak havoc on me. I guess that's what makes life interesting. Right.
Robins had their babies a few weeks ago. Now my new alarm clock goes off at four forty five.
Have to start organizing for funorama. A few of us rented a cabin in the upper pennisular. For a week. During that week, friends, and some family, will be popping in, here and there. No watches, no phones, no televisions. We leave Thursday.
Until next time. Everybody have a nice day.
