[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:07:53 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Oh, love bread pudding! Fish City has really good bread pudding.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:09:04 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Hopefully not with fish in it!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:09:09 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I made too much stuffing and now I am eating lots of stuffing. Not quiet that same as bread pudding. though
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:09:26 PM EST] <HoundMistress> LOL! No, but made with cinnamon rolls.

[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:12:47 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Awesome
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:16 PM EST] <The_Bee> #7, 14 and 18 are my favorites.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:26 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I am still recovering from Turkey/Family day done on Friday. Is anyone yet thinking about Christmas
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:45 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I don't know how the one with his legs over 2 parallel pipes did that!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:48 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> My husband put up the tree and the lights and the parlor display over the weekend.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:54 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Not till payday
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:13:58 PM EST] <The_Bee> Yes.   I'm ready for some Christmas carols.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:07 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> We decorated the little pine tree that is growing up by my mailbox and turned it into our own little Charlie Brown tree.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:15 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Maybe starting next week.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:27 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Nice Evie
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:29 PM EST] <The_Bee> I've plugged in my colored lights.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:40 PM EST] <KK> I'm gping to put up my little tree tomorrow. Today I got caught up in a West Wing marathon. Dang, that was a good series!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:14:52 PM EST] <bynw> we put decorations up this weekend. including a little tree inside
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:15:04 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> I give my husband full control over the radio from Thansgiving through New Years. He loves Christmas carols, and I get so tired of hearing the same songs over and over again.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:15:07 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I liked West Wing a lot.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:15:13 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Nice Bynw
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:15:32 PM EST] <KK> Must have been a bitch to write. Talented folk!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:15:45 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes,
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:16:04 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I will start with the christmas music when I start with the decorations. but for now I am still in thanksgiving Fall mode
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:16:20 PM EST] <HoundMistress> If anyone likes Guardian of the Galaxy, there's a Christmas special story on Disney+
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:16:25 PM EST] <The_Bee> I have a love/hate relationship with Silent Night.  It can be a lovely song, but iiit...caann...draaaag!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:16:42 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> KK did you ever want to write TV episodes?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:16:47 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Oh, it can drag, way too much!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:17:19 PM EST] <The_Bee> Sing it like a lullaby, not a dirge.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:17:33 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I bet writing TV episodes could be very stressful
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:17:43 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Right, Bee
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:17:47 PM EST] <The_Bee> deadlines to meet.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:17:51 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Agree with that HM
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:01 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Actors to appease
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:17 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Topics to include or avoid
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:33 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> so true
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:37 PM EST] <The_Bee> sponsors to recruit
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:40 PM EST] <KK> Not of West Wing. I did have aspirations to write for Star Trek, and submitted a script. But that was very early in my career, and it wasn't for me.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:18:57 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> OH COOL
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:19:05 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Ooooh, we wanna see the script!! 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:19:07 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Would have been so fun to be in Star Trek!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:19:36 PM EST] <The_Bee> Isn't there some Trek influence in your early stories?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:19:48 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I grew up a Trekkiea before it was a thing. My dad loved Star Trek so we watched it all the time
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:20:23 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Watched from the beginning, so sorry when it was cancelled!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:20:54 PM EST] <The_Bee> I watched many Star Trek reruns.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:21:07 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Me too
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:21:08 PM EST] <KK> Transfer Portals do owe a bit to Star Trek influence.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:21:33 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Oh, I hadn't thought of that but they are very similar.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:21:53 PM EST] <The_Bee> I never knew that Leonard Nimoy was almost a neighbor of mine.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:22:10 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Really??
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:22:53 PM EST] <The_Bee> Beacon Hill is not that far from Scollay Square.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:23:16 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Trek is a lot about accepting "the other." That's a big part of KK's stories as well.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:23:40 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes, lots of controversial topics on Star Trek
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:24:51 PM EST] <The_Bee> I've sometimes wondered:  If they're "boldly going where no one has gone before, how come humans are virtually running the Federation.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:24:53 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I am imagining a crossover where Captain Kirk and Spock come to a Medieval planet and meet up with Kelson, Morgan and Duncan. How COOL would that be.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:25:01 PM EST] <KK> It was very advannced for its time.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:25:17 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Didnt' someone write a fanfic about that? Or was it the reverse?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:25:35 PM EST] <The_Bee> I think they did.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:25:35 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes very advanced, made you think!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:25:56 PM EST] <KK> Any serious Darkover fans out there? I have about 3-4 inches of Darkover fanfic and other material. I can send it to you for the postage.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:26:02 PM EST] <The_Bee> How do you think the sequels measure up?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:26:27 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Some of the sequels were very good, some not so much.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:26:36 PM EST] <KK> There's a Darkover concordance, too.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:26:47 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I don't know very much about Darkover.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:26:58 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Back.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:27:06 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Hi, DR
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:27:30 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Would Shiral be a Dark over fan?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:27:55 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Hi KK, HoundMistress, Bee, and whoever all else has shown up while I was distracted.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:28:05 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> I've never read that series, but my reading time is pretty limited these days.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:28:05 PM EST] <The_Bee> I wonder if PBS News Hour's science expert realizes he has the same name as Trek engineer Miles O'Brien charaacter.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:28:37 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Wonder if he was named for the Character.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:28:59 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Re Star Trek/ Eleven Kingdoms crossover, stranger events have occurred in fanfic.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:29:13 PM EST] <The_Bee> I enjoyed Darkover, but I never did find Cleindori's story.  Did Ms Braadley write it?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:29:21 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> yes but I am imagining KK writing it. YES
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:29:30 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> There's a really very cute Torchwood/Tortall two-part series.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:29:47 PM EST] <The_Bee> depends on when he was born.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:30:19 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Didn't KK have a part as an extra in one of the Star Trek movies?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:30:32 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Did you KK???
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:30:47 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> It's not like Eleven Kingdoms and Star Wars don't merge in the FF
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:30:51 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> 😉
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:31:26 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Lol, very true, Nezz!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:31:37 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I think the Eleven Kingdoms were the Precursor to Star wars.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:31:53 PM EST] <The_Bee> Wasn't the Hort of ORsal named for a Star Trek episode?  "The Devil in the Dark'?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:32:43 PM EST] <HoundMistress> When was Deryni Rising first published?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:32:48 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Yeah, KK published ␝Deryni Rising␝ in 1970, I think. Star Wars didn't enter production for another few years anyway.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:32:48 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> These aren't the druids you are looking for
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:32:50 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> 1970
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:33:16 PM EST] <KK> I did, in the first one. I was a hydroponics engineer in the background when Kirk has assemble the crew to tell them about what's about to happen. Never did spot myself.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:33:23 PM EST] <HoundMistress> LOL, Laurna
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:33:37 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> I thought so!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:00 PM EST] <KK> Wearing an oatmeal-colored tunic and with my hair slicked back in a bun.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:02 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Still very cool!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:15 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> That's so great. 😉
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:19 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> So neat KK. but you did not find yourself on the film, darn Directorrs
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:23 PM EST] <KK> Star Trek debuted in 1966.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:40 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> That's really cool, KK!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:34:52 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I was 15 when it started
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:35:21 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> There are a few goofy fanfics on the forum wherein Alaric, Duncan, and I think Kelson as well acquire lightsabers.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:35:54 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> "Duncan, swords are cool, but I really wanted a lightsabre!"
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:35:54 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Oh yes Revanne did the Lightsabesrs and it was perfect
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:36:11 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Which is definitely a Wars thing, not Trek. (I am firmly a "both/and" fan.)
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:36:51 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I think thats the geeky nerds in our hears
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:36:53 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes, love both series
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:36:53 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Hearts
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:37:01 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Yup.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:37:18 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:37:54 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> I never saw the point of a rivalry because they are very different universes, each enjoyable for itself.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:38:10 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I don't think kelson has found out about lightsabers as yet. that was Duncan/ Alaric and Kelric
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:38:13 PM EST] <HoundMistress> You're right, DR
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:38:47 PM EST] <The_Bee> I for one think that, if a stranger from Star Trek or Star Wars suddenly appeared in front of Kelson, Alaric would have his dagger at the stranger's throat before the guy could blink.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:38:59 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> And I will still bonk someone with a wrapping paper tube while making lightsaber noises, nearly 47 years old be damned.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:39:05 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> As I recall, Duncan, Alaric, Kelson, and Dhugal did all play quidditch, didn't they?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:39:11 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Yep BEE
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:39:37 PM EST] <KK> Yes to bonking folk with wrapping paper tubes and making light saber sounds!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:39:49 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> LOL
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:40:07 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> 😄
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:40:23 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes, and you just know there are people somewhere feverishly trying to make a real lightsaber.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:40:57 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I would rather not loose a finger or arm to that thank you.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:40:58 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Okay, that settles it. Everyone accumulate as many empty wrapping paper tubes as possible for the Deryni family reunion weekend, should we manage to make it happen.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:40:59 PM EST] <The_Bee> What does a lightsaber sound like?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:13 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Love it DR
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:16 PM EST] <KK> I think there have been some pretty authentic-looking light sabers built by fans.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:17 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> zzzzzhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:19 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> And we'll have a lightsaber mêlée.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:28 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Kind of a ZHMMMMMM>
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:31 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> I have a homemade lightsaber
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:33 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> ␝crack crack zzzzhhhhhhhh␝
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:41:40 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> We shall have a mock battle in the cathedral between Alaric and Ian
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:42:12 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> https://youtu.be/__sDEWIjQ_g
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:42:46 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Quanah is about to run me out of the room! Gah!! But he would just follow me.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:43:35 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes, that's it DR
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:44:14 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> So sad Ian's dagger didn't make any sounds, otherwise Alaric would have heard it coming.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:44:25 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> ␝whoosh␝
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:45:05 PM EST] <HoundMistress> He really shouldn't have turned his back on Ian.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:46:03 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I know, I yell at him every time I read that scene
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:46:09 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Last new episode of The Equalizer is coming on at 7.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:46:37 PM EST] <KK> That's also a good series.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:46:37 PM EST] <HoundMistress> And Duncan should have been watching but Charissa distracted them all.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:46:45 PM EST] <The_Bee> Houndmistress: Any pics of Quannah?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:47:16 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Yes, it is KK and I liked the original one a lot, too. Had my doubts about a new one, but it's been very good.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:47:55 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I have lots on my FB page but don't know how to post here.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:48:26 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Post them in the Fur Kids gallery on the forum.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:48:53 PM EST] <HoundMistress> OK, will look into that. I think some of my gone babies are in there.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:49:45 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Probably. If you posted them, they're likely still there. We don't generally delete stuff unless someone asks us to.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:50:40 PM EST] <The_Bee> I found an old photo of Melantha and Mickey sitting on my kitchen table.  She seems to be eating something, but I can't tell what.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:50:50 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> DR how is your fanfic coming along. Ready to post it yet?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:51:07 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Milo has reached that adolescent struggle when your limbs have recently grown longer but your sense of proprioception hasn't quite caught up.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:51:16 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> LOL
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:51:24 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> That is an interesting color
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:51:36 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> no strips
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:51:41 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Love kittens at that awkward stage!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:52:00 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Nowhere near ready for prime time yet, but I've been getting some good insight into two characters who'd been puzzling me.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:52:02 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Love kittens at any stage! 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:52:24 PM EST] <HoundMistress> You're right, Nezz!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:52:24 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Keep up the good work. DR
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:52:57 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> It is very amusing to watch Milo's "wait what?" on that laminate floor at my parents' house.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:05 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I have an idea for a Deryni short story for fanfic. I just have to put some effort in and write it.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:24 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Nothing to grip or stop himself with, poor little lad
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:29 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Go for it HM
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:46 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Any chance yet to read any of the anthology submissions, KK?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:48 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I give it a try, Laurna
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:53:55 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Yup, we always like to see new stories!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:54:16 PM EST] <HoundMistress> I generally do short stories on HubPages, so will end up there, probably.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:55:06 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> You could also post on the forum. We'll make you a fanfic section.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:55:17 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Just say the word.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:55:23 PM EST] <HoundMistress> That would be great, too!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:55:37 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Like to see that
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:55:59 PM EST] <KK> Not yet, Evie. But I did manage to shelve 3 boxes of books in my office yesterday, and culled about a box from those. It's coming along.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:56:02 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> I'm trying to write a new fanfic as well, but it's still in the brewing phase for me. So HM, do it! 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:56:18 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Sounds good, KK!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:56:23 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Great KK.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:56:35 PM EST] <The_Bee> I've started something, but it needs more work.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:56:38 PM EST] <KK> Looks a lot better, too, though there's still much to do.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:57:36 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> BRB, need tea
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:57:47 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> OH and KK last week you offered some Genealogy lists. I sent an email for that. my fingers are crossed that you got it.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:58:15 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Books are so much better on shelves and out of boxes
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:58:19 PM EST] <KK> I got it, Laurna, and will send it tomorrow.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:58:37 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> YESSSSSSS I am so excited
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:58:41 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> I'm in the middle of going through DD's old room and getting rid of stuff she doesn't want to keep and move to Colorado, since DH needs the room to store some stuff he's bringing up from his mom's house.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:58:49 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> I know! I can't wait to start setting up my library. My books have been boxed for way too long. 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:59:40 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Books are likely the last thing to be unboxed after a move. so that means you are almost done
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:59:44 PM EST] <HoundMistress> A lot of my books are still in boxes from several moves ago and the last move was in 2004.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [7:59:58 PM EST] <The_Bee> How is your MIL doing, Evie?  anything definite on her condition?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:34 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Oops! Equalizer coming on. Hope to remember to sign in next week unless it's the video one. Bye!! Take care of yourselves!!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:45 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> take care HM
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:45 PM EST] <The_Bee> bye HM!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:50 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Not really. DH is going down in mid-December to drive her back up here.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:55 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Night Hound mistresss
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:56 PM EST] <HoundMistress> Bye, all!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:00:56 PM EST] <The_Bee> Bye HM
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:01 PM EST] Quit HoundMistress (HoundMistr@owirc-qior2n.res.rr.com) has left this server (Quit: Connection closed).
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:02 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Bye HM
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:08 PM EST] <KK> She mooving in with you, Evie?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:20 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> No, she has a house up here about 15 minutes away.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:28 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> That is good
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:34 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> She just has barely visited it at all since the kids left high school
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:36 PM EST] <KK> Ah, much better!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:01:49 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Close but not under the same roof is perfect
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:02 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hi Everyone
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:10 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Hey Jerusha
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:10 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Hello Jerusha
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:17 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Are you staying warm?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:18 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Yes. She is doing well enough to still live on her own with us just checking on her frequently. She's just not really up for driving 12 hours each way between houses anymore, and as her health needs increase, it will be a lot easier if she is near us and near a world class medical center, instead of in the middle of Central FL where it takes most of a day for us to get to.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:21 PM EST] <The_Bee> Hi Jerusha
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:49 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> glad she has a home near you Evie
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:03:55 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> At the moment in Florida, so warm
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:07 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> CHeating
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:10 PM EST] <KK> brb
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:16 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Yep
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:27 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> You and DR should have lunch
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:32 PM EST] <The_Bee> What brought you to Florida, Jerusha?
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:04:56 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> A bit far away: I'm in Melbourne
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:05:18 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Hi Jerusha!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:05:41 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> My Dad passed on 8 November (my birthday!) so we are trying to begin to settle his estate
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:05:58 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> I'm sorry to hear that! 😦
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:05:59 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> 😦
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:14 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Sorry for the reason to come to the states. But nice to get out of the cold
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:16 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Thank you, but he was 103 years old
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:16 PM EST] <The_Bee> ;(
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:34 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Wow! That's a nice long life.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:50 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Everything moves way to slowly to get things done
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:06:56 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Amazing life time
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:07:03 PM EST] <The_Bee> I hope you inherited plenty of his good genes.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:07:23 PM EST] <Eris> <DesertRose (she/her)> Carys says hi and purrrrrrr
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:07:32 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Hi Carys
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:07:41 PM EST] * The_Bee scritches Carys.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:07:59 PM EST] <KK> 103? Wow, that's good innings! I hope he got to enjoy it.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:08:24 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Up until the last 6 weeks it wasn't too bad. Then it was a bit grim
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:09:14 PM EST] <bynw> your dad dying on your birthday sucks ... i know that all to well
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:10:00 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> At least I will always remember the date. And I still made myself a birthday cake (all chocolate, of course)
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:10:11 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> Yum
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:10:15 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Good, you deserve cake on your birhtday. 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:11:27 PM EST] <KK> We had Scott's funeral on his birthday, and had a cake and sang happy birthday in his honor. :-)
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:11:42 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> I like that
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:11:46 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> Awww. I'll bet he appreciated that. 🙂
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:11:52 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> A very nice touch, KK
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:12:07 PM EST] <The_Bee> My sister took me out to lunch on my birthday.  They came from Toronto and Vermont to do it.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:12:20 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Very nice, Bee
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:12:29 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> That is a good sister
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:12:44 PM EST] <KK> Had his coat of arms done on the cake, and they'd used a blue food color in some of the icing that was really intense. We all walked around with blue teeth for the rest of the afternoon, which was kind of comical. He would have enjoyed that!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:13:00 PM EST] <Eris> <Evie the Verbose> 😄
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:13:01 PM EST] <The_Bee> My Grandpa;s funeral was on my 14th birthday.  They had a cake for me in the shape of a cat.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:13:02 PM EST] <Eris> <Nezz> : D
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:13:09 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Good one
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:14:33 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> My dad died on my mom's birthday, and she was saying that was just like him to always get the last word in.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:14:57 PM EST] <The_Bee> Good for her!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:15:01 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Yep, I can relate to that
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:16:28 PM EST] <The_Bee> sisterS
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:16:44 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> That is even better Bee
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:16:49 PM EST] <The_Bee> I for got the final S
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:17:43 PM EST] <KK> Funny, how events like that can inspire real zingers. When Scott went into hospital, plans were already in place to move my mom into assisted living. When I called him that first morning after he'd gone to the hospital, I told him that some people would do anything to get out of helping move my mother. Got a laugh out of him.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:17:51 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> I am sure you are forgiven, Bee
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:18:08 PM EST] <The_Bee> My youngest siter is moving from Ontario to Quebec.  It's closer to Vermont, where my brother and older sister live.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:18:45 PM EST] <The_Bee> Darn those rented fingers!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:19:22 PM EST] <Eris> <Jerusha2> Make sure they don't raise the rent!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:19:34 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> LOL
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:19:45 PM EST] <The_Bee> If they do, I'll sue!
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:20:23 PM EST] <The_Bee> BTW, I've just bought an electric trike.  I need to have it assembled.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:20:28 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> No one enjoys the actuall moving part. so we will side with Scott on that part of the laugh
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:20:44 PM EST] <KK> Well, I think I'm going back to the West Wing, folks. God knows when it will be on again, and it's producing some lovely nostalgia. Ends later tonight.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:21:10 PM EST] * KK steps onto her Portal, waves goodnight, and disappears in a shower of green sparkles.
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:21:11 PM EST] <Eris> <Laurna> Enjoy KK. have a good week. Are we Zooming next week
[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:21:13 PM EST] <The_Bee> Nighters, KK. Zoom chat next sunday?

[Sunday, November 27, 2022] [8:21:36 PM EST] <bynw> Zoom should be next week yes?
