2:43 am

Don't you start Atalante otherwise you will find yourself carrying the Baton of Blame!!

oh no. you can't get off so easily. we blame you for oh so subtlely influencing lynxxx ideas

2:44 am

LOL, so it's a hard one then lynxxx?

2:44 am

its cause she finishes so quickly, I just wanted to slow her down cause she makes me feel bad

2:45 am

it wasn't too bad till halfway

2:45 am

Half done, no 8s - can't see much now

oh man, that pa8 is not real!

2:45 am

i've got an 8!

2:46 am

'Aint babble great! Where else can you get global blame in one go :) I haven't started yet, going to be disciplined.

I can understand the re8 that relates, but really!

2:46 am

I've got 2 8s now! ty mrp!

2:46 am

Hi MrP, how are you?

2:46 am

I think it must mean as in wall*****

2:47 am

thanks MRP

hi fmitch! :) am good as gold!! My surgeon has told me to take the cast off!!! YIIIPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEE!!!

2:48 am

yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

2:48 am

That great news! Jut take it easy and BE CAREFUL.

2:48 am

hi everone and yay for the cast off mrp

2:48 am

Yay - she's official!!! what else did he have to say to you MRP?

it still hurts like hell and I am still on morphine, but screw that! I am free of the cast!!!!!! *happy dance* - must not fall down though

2:49 am

ha ha is happy dance morphine or relief

well, I have to wear the cast whenever I go out... and I start physio and hydrotherapy 15 Oct. can't lift my arm more than 10cm I am afraid

2:50 am

time heals all mrp, this is nearly behind you

andree, the effects of the morphine have worn off the 'happy' long time ago... is just pain relief now! I would love to not have to take it anymore as it limits my thinking

2:50 am

that sounds great - you should feel good by Xmas

2:50 am

wasn't today beautiful

2:50 am

One stage at a time :)

that is what the surgeon said lynxx!

today was beautiful! ok, besides the blood tests, xrays, surgeon and dentist appointments.... just beautiful

and the kids were reasonable to be with... this new 'diet' they are on seems to be working in a positive way

2:52 am

i did have a better day than you mrp , took the day off and played golf

lucky girl!! I will get better and join you for golf by the new year andree!

2:53 am

that would be so cool mrp

oh sprite! you ok?? what happened??

hi cait and t&t :)

4:09 am

I bet he cant wait either toad

yah, he's on high alert, waiting for the email and the red cross message

I am going to skype

4:10 am

nothing happened... except my boss called. Enough for the worst panic attack I have ever had... surprised my neighbours did not come looking if I had gone crazy. Hubby said he did not have a great feeling about the 2nd interview, it went not smooth at all. But they also told him the other candidates were no longer in the race. We hear today if they will continue it with him...

4:45 am

4:46 am

Liz - CoolGirl is out of the 2 week grace period so can't see them anymore. Yes, she will go pro as soon as she finishes her final year

4:47 am

oh I didnt realise there was a grace period! I must've gone pro before that time ran out?

4:48 am

goodness Liz - I didn't realise how 'new' you were - thought you had been playing for a long time

4:49 am

Since May this year Lynxxx

4:53 am

well that stopped the conversation LOL

4:54 am

It's a quiet log again Liz and hello.

4:55 am

just working my way down the words I've got to make sure I have the plurals ets...I always hit myself when I go to Lickety

4:55 am

Hi FM! Hows the course going?

4:55 am

teabreak FM?

4:55 am

So far so fun :) Submitted TMA01 and have 1st tutorial tonight

4:56 am

Just popped in to say Hi to KLiz lynxxx then back to the spreadsheets.

4:56 am

Well done. The first one is the hardest to get done I found - after that its easier coz you've had the practice!

4:56 am

dear mrP helped me calm down from this ugly panic attack, so I didn't chat here... hi guys, am back now in more than one sense and finally ready to babble

4:57 am

Hi Sprite

4:57 am

I was cheered by the fact I had to cut it down in size. Hi sprite glad MrP helped.

4:58 am

she was the very best, FMitch. Her support and 2 oxazepam and a lot of chocolat brought me back to earth :)

4:58 am

Yes, nothing worse than if you struggle to make up the words

4:58 am

god bless friends, chocolat and even medication if the need is high

4:59 am

Hello Sprite, more than glad you are OK. How did your husband go yesterday?

4:59 am

and what about yours Liz? Hows it going?

4:59 am

*passes Sprite another bar of choc* and I dont give choc away to just anyone :)

4:59 am

he said it did not go smoothly and he did not have a very good feeling about it. But they also told him there were no longer any other candidates. So we will hear today if they will go on with him or not

5:00 am

I'm on a year off Sprite while my little girl is young. Next yer I'm taking up where I left off which will be another 60 point course

5:00 am

owwww Liz, thank you! That is indeed a precious gift and I appreciiatd. :)

5:00 am

you're welcome Sprite

5:00 am

Sorry I meant to type FM there not Sprite! About the course!

5:00 am

if they do, he will have to do an assessment to see in what areas he might need some more study. And after that, a talk with the Bosses... and if all works out ok, he will get the job.

5:01 am

Fingers crossed Sprite...your second sentence reads hopefully though

5:01 am

Uh oh phone, thats my signal to get back to the grind *waves* and almost drops the phone.

5:01 am

Bye FM nice to 'see' you

5:01 am

My personal feeling about it is not bad yet. I would not be surprised iif it is part of the selection, to have a not-so-easy conversation and see how he holds up under it.

5:02 am

so we will see... and I will tell you as soon as I know!

5:03 am

I think you are reading it correctly Sprite

5:03 am

thanks lynxxx :) I really hope so, and my finge3rs are crossed.

5:04 am

I have to dash, not quite halfway but I have time later. Bye all have fun :)

5:04 am

bye Liz

5:04 am

bfn Liz and thanks for the lovely chocolate!

5:07 am

My friend from belgium bought me over a wee box of Belgium chocolates for my birthday. Delish! I didn't even share! Even the white chocolate was great and I usually don't like that. Belgium chocolate IS the best

5:07 am

oh yes, belgium chocolat is wonderful :)

5:09 am

no e on the chocolate Sprite? is that dutch spelling? must say I like it, think I'll start dropping the e too

5:10 am

dutch spelling is chocolade. With e. I guess I am still typing like a fool, not totally calmed down yet.

5:11 am

maybe we can start a new trend...chocolat....looks good

5:11 am

I like the look of that, lynxxx!

5:12 am

good morning all

5:12 am

and I think it is more correct, even. With chocolat, we don't want to associate with late, now do we. And with lat, as in latte... milk... I can think of some nice things :D

5:12 am

hi flosey

5:13 am

up much to early, will babble a bit til tired enough to sleep again

5:13 am

Pooter - a small suction device for picking up insects without harming them! Why can't I have it?

5:45 am

Hi All by the way - back from Normandy

5:46 am

Hi Spellit - did you have a good time?

5:46 am

(to be hummed in a gentle, not intrusive voice) ;)

5:46 am

wb spellit

hi spellit

5:47 am

Fantastic but ate too much and probably drank too much wine. Back to the diet!

5:47 am

diet. Now that is a word that I never sp4 in babble until it is almost too la4.

5:58 am

morning all

5:58 am

hi carlee

5:58 am

Hi Carlee!

5:59 am

how everyone today

6:00 am

emotionally sh*t, but gridwise pretty ok. Nice grid today. And babble friends have been much appreciated today, even more than before :D How are you?

6:00 am

good thankyou Carlee.

6:00 am

well... I am dealing with a whole rack of family sh*t myself... on top of the other stuff

6:01 am

oh carlee - big hug

6:02 am

no doubt from m-i-l ?

6:02 am

Good to see you are still visiting us/Babble for some light relief Carlee. Think of you a lot.

6:03 am

his family has decided to block any and all info gettign to me... and my kids... if was not for my father visiting... i would not know he is up walking with walker...but..apparently I am not to know about that one

6:03 am

how very cruel

6:04 am

thanks lynxx

6:04 am

i am not sure why they so hate me... but apparently they do

6:04 am

Oh Carlee ... hang in there

6:05 am

the whole thing makes me sick to my stomach

6:06 am

can well understand carlee, but how can they block you from getting info?

6:06 am

the hospital in another city...the days I took off to stay with my kids..they been down there every day visiting him

morning Carlee sorry to hear of your woes......

6:07 am

and coming back at night....and have not breathed a WORD about how he is doing

6:07 am

you mean 'they' are poisoning the kids minds?

you need to confront them Carlee that is just not right... you are his wife!

6:08 am

nope.... the kids are not being told either

6:08 am

indeed nanette,

6:08 am

but how about getting info from the Dr?

6:08 am

i can do that..IF I could get ahold of the dr

can the staff at the hospital give you info?

6:09 am

areyou

6:09 am

yes.... but that not the point

6:10 am

Would you be able to speak to the physio people instead he's probably having that everyday?

6:10 am

are you not able to speak to your hubby?

6:10 am

the point is..>THEY should do so

6:10 am

he didn't want a phone...

yes they should!!

6:10 am

so I have not spoken to him since saturday

6:10 am

of course they SHOULD

6:11 am

that s*cks big time, carlee

Carlee it is wonderful tho that he is able to get about with a walker!

6:12 am

Hi all

6:12 am

yes..it is.. already... its excellent....which is why.. I cannot believe they would not bother to tell me

6:12 am

Hi Peri

6:12 am

(((((((((((carleekat))))))))))

6:12 am

hi peri

6:12 am

no, that is utterly mean, carlee

6:12 am

{{{hugs}}} back peri

do you suppose maybe he wanted to surprise you with that when you go see him next?

6:13 am

Just ring them 'cheerfully' every night before they go back to the hospital with messages to give your husband...wear them down with good cheer

6:13 am

good one lynxxx

hi peri

6:13 am

Hi Peri.

6:13 am

good idea, lynxxx and hi peri

6:14 am

not likely... long story... but my father ( who has suddenly reappeared in my life ) has been calling with updates...given his "previous record of 30+ years " one would not expect him to bother reporting

6:14 am

keep up with the reiki pls peri...he is up walking with a walker already

time for breakfast here bbl

6:15 am

I will carlee and will send some to you too :-)

6:15 am

morning flosey, all

6:22 am

not really. 4x8 and 16 x7

6:22 am

hi lideola

6:22 am

oh, I guess i just got them quickly - usually I have to search for the 7s and 8s.

6:22 am

RULES FOR COPING WITH PANIC 1. Remember that feelings of panic are just exaggerations of normal bodily stress reactions. 2. Sensations are neither harmful nor dangerous - just unpleasant. Nothing worse will happen. 3. Anxiety is temporary. Instead of fighting it, relax into it. Just let it be. 4. Focus on facing the fear, rather than trying to avoid it or escape from it. 5. Stop adding to the panic with frightening thoughts of where panic will lead. 6. Stay in the present. Be aware of what is happening to you rather than concern yourself with how much worse it might get. 7. Notice that when you stop adding to the panic with frightening thoughts, the fear begins to fade. 8. Wait and give the fear time to pass. 9. Look around you. Plan what you will do next as the panic subsides. 10. When you are ready to go on, do so in an easy, relaxed manner. There is no hurry. 11. Think about the progress so far, despite all the difficulties.

6:23 am

hi lideola

6:23 am

thank you for that babble

6:23 am

hi sprite, peri

6:24 am

awwww BabbleRabble, that is very sweet of you. Thanks. I think I might have done pretty well then, this time. Thanks for reaching out and sharing.

6:25 am

may I please have clues for the 8's

6:25 am

phantom = aorta

6:26 am

Hi all im back..

6:26 am

I have none so far, sorry

6:26 am

wb caitlyn

6:26 am

the first 8 is an al that refers to people at the dry cleaners who can make your clothes fit better

6:26 am

my phantom so far (just started)- is appellate

6:27 am

thanks elemce

6:27 am

thanks elemce

6:27 am

pa8 is the person that decorates your room (plural)

6:27 am

another is what you might do if you move into a new house and the bedroom has leopard print walls

6:27 am

I have seen more phantoms than real words, mind is still a bit groggy. But I just ate and I am proud of me for doing so. Bet it wil help function the brain better too :)

6:27 am

al 8.40; as 8.45; pa 8.50; re 8.50;

6:28 am

thanks cait

6:28 am

Are you feeling better than you did earlier sprite?

6:28 am

ah, thanks for that oen too, never thought that would be words.

6:28 am

and elemce

6:28 am

yw peri

6:28 am

the 8s a re all fairly well-adjusted as far as abnormal words go

6:29 am

tthanks BR will look for them

6:29 am

cait: yes, am certainly. Totally tired now, like I have run a marathon, but I think that is normal. There is more calm now and I can breathe and babble. I seem to have feet again, and they rest firmly on the floor. Sounds like improvement, right? :)

6:29 am

thanks BabbleRabble, that helps

6:29 am

Sounds much more like you now sprite

6:30 am

I am glad, cait, thanks :)

6:31 am

the re 7/8 combo is that same man doing it to your room again LOL

6:31 am

thanks BR got the re8, still looking for the as 8

6:31 am

thanks cait

6:31 am

LOL

6:31 am

np

6:33 am

as 8 -- add, an individual is a *****n and end with the letter that sounds like are

6:34 am

wonderful babbleRabble, thank you, that worked at once. Strange word to me.

6:34 am

Good afternoon/morning all.

6:34 am

I have just done a marathon shepherds pie cook in...a large one for us a smaller one for the grandchildren and 2 vegetarian ones for daughter

6:34 am

good morning Haz

6:35 am

Hi Haz

6:35 am

Hello, Haz

6:35 am

Hello there! I was on earlier, though just lurked. It's a nice grid today.

6:36 am

HI Haz

6:36 am

Yes I enjoyed this grid today

6:36 am

So, no tantrums, caitlyn? Hello peri as well.

6:37 am

thanks BR never would have found the as8

6:38 am

Not today Haz..but a major one in the shop the other day..why do they insist on moving everything around in supermarkets..I couldnt find half of what I wanted

6:38 am

yw

6:38 am

I hate when they do that cait

6:38 am

I'll probably be joining you in the tantrum department. There's a new Tescos opening here soon, the one I go to will be closed down. The trauma of a new shopping routine! But I'll live.

6:39 am

Have fun!!!LOL

6:40 am

Do I detect a note of glee?

6:41 am

No Haz only a slight hint of sarcasm

6:41 am

Hmmmmm.

6:42 am

Concerning panic....my daughter's baby is 2 mos. old and yesterday she started having panic attacks. I'm sure it must be related to fatigue. I kept the baby last nite and hope she slept well. Her gyno gave her Xanax and Cymbalta....send good thoughts her way.

6:43 am

Oh poor thing chiley..I will send her good thoughts ..is her 1st baby?

6:43 am

xanex for a baby ... wow

6:43 am

I'm not familiar with the medication, Chiley, but I hope they, and some rest, help.

6:43 am

will do indeed chiley - hugs

6:43 am

bbl

6:43 am

bye peri

6:43 am

NO BR....for my daughter

6:43 am

Bye peri.

6:44 am

good mommy/grandmom! having help like the kind you are offering will be reassurance enough to help her through...

6:44 am

okay

6:44 am

DESPITE TOM CRUISE i am so happy that post partum maternal issues are finally being taken seriously

6:45 am

Well said lideola

6:45 am

I'm hoping he regrets saying what he did. Did anyone take him seriously?

6:46 am

Im sure some men did Haz

6:46 am

probably just all the other kooks. i've a self proclaimed ban on all of his work

6:46 am

I don't think he regrets it...he truly feels that way. It's the Scientology belief.

6:46 am

Would most men not disregard someone who has strange ideas on lots of things, not just mental health issues?

6:47 am

Some people are easily led especially by someone well known to the public

6:48 am

he's a kooky kook who says kooky things and has kooky beliefs that are sooooo counterproductive

6:48 am

So, you're ambivalent about him, lideola?

6:48 am

what on earth did he say?

6:49 am

Lideola, I won't buy or see another of his movies either.

6:49 am

lol he doesn't factor in to my existence

6:49 am

I don't tend to read about movie people, and see very few movies

6:49 am

He criticised Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants for post-natal depression.

6:49 am

Nor me flosey

6:49 am

G'd morning Babblers. That was a fun little grid.

6:50 am

And by inference, any mothers who need medical intervention.

6:50 am

And went on to pretty much deny that psychiatry has any benefits for anyone

6:50 am

Morning Lori

6:50 am

Well hello, Lori - come to gloat, huh?

6:50 am

hello, Lori

6:50 am

he said something about post partum depression being a crock and not a real thing- an excuse. He criticized Brooke Shields for having problems about having children

6:51 am

after, not about

6:51 am

plus, i just don'tlike his acting... Top Gun was fun because i was an 11 year old impressionable girl

6:51 am

oh my stars, so he's an expert on maternal needs, etc. - when will such insensitive men learn to just keep out of it all

6:51 am

Not gloating Haz. Just feeding my need to distract others from completion...... :)

6:52 am

Cruis is a great actore. Like many greats though, as a person he's stark raving mad.

6:52 am

Face it, Lori, you just like to drag the rest of us into gloom, despair and low self-esteem.

6:52 am

You're not Tom Cruise, are you?

6:52 am

LOL Lori..can I join you ? I have finished the grid as well

6:53 am

think he's just become too full of himself

don't forget "agony, oh me, deep dark depression, excessive misery" -- or do you not know Hee Haw?!? LOL

6:53 am

Misery loves company Haz!

6:53 am

clue for the as8 plz (i just missed it earlier)

6:54 am

mm, one who al5/10 plural

6:54 am

Good morning all. Love to bash Tom. He jumped on Oprah's couch like a raving lunatic

6:54 am

mm extend the as 6

6:54 am

i need the aS 8 flosey

6:54 am

Morning Shawnee

6:54 am

well, my other phantom is PERRLA- which is an acronym for Pupils Equal, Round and Reactive to Light and Accomodation

6:54 am

oops, sorry, not reading right!!!

6:55 am

as 8 is the one who casts nasty barbs and slander

6:55 am

not really a phantom since it is there, but not a proper word either

6:55 am

which as6 caitlyn?

6:56 am

I typed in appliance about 17 times. Not once did it work. :(

6:56 am

as8 - extend as5/12 - if it had a g in front, it would be one out of breath and hardly able to speak.

6:56 am

mm there is only one as6 which is plural of the 2nd as 5/12

6:57 am

I was working in the lab late one night .... BBP

6:57 am

got it, ty all

6:57 am

as + *****nally I think Cruise is insane + I mean *eally nits!

6:58 am

Tom Cruise has nits?

6:58 am

G'd morning BR

6:58 am

Does Katie know?

6:58 am

Hello... the

6:58 am

Hello... the

6:58 am

Hello... the

6:58 am

no- those are probably not a true illness/medical issue and just an excuse

6:58 am

They'll need to treat the whole family.

6:58 am

gawd. my typing matches his insanity....

6:59 am

You have got a stammer BR!!!

6:59 am

yes yes yes yes yyyyyyyyyyeeeessssssss

6:59 am

O rare you having a good time? LOL

7:00 am

thx for that excellent clue LoriP

7:00 am

just being an interloper in the tom cruise fan club love fest

7:00 am

Methinks that BR may need some private time, and possibly a smoke.....

7:01 am

What side do you take, Babble?

7:01 am

LOL Lori..the babble world is sooooo interesting

7:01 am

cruise can have his opinions and I can disregard them

7:02 am

good morning, Babblers! I was notified yesterday that our home loan has cleared the underwriters, and now we just have to wait for the house to be ready!

7:02 am

That sounds good to me, Babble.

7:02 am

the odds of a grid with the three same letters under themselves is 1 in 17,576

7:02 am

Hi angel that is great news ..well done

7:02 am

wonderful Angelsong, very exciting

7:03 am

Are you sure, hurshy?

7:03 am

congrats, Angelsong

7:03 am

Hi hurshy

7:03 am

pretty sure

7:03 am

maybe i misthought the logic but the computer did the calc so if i didn't then it is right

7:04 am

Did you have an equation to work with? Or an equation with which to work, if being grammatical and mathematical?

7:04 am

Time to go...lunch..do some jobs for mum..then the school run...try to see you all later..have fun..bye

7:04 am

well there are 26^25 grids

7:04 am

Bye caitlyn - have a good day.

7:04 am

Excellent Angel. Good for you! Later caitlyn.

7:04 am

if three boxes MUST be one given letter (ie the same as the one above) then there are only 26^22 grids

7:05 am

divide and voila.

7:05 am

color me dopey but i am still looking for the sme 3 letters

7:05 am

per. I'm not so dopey.

7:06 am

aaaaaah i got it- iwas looking for an AAA or CCC in a column

7:06 am

cya, Haz

7:06 am

Happy dining Haz.

7:06 am

Good morning all. The photo is my daughter's dog -- she took her in for her first professional grooming, and not knowing what "do you want your dog to have a close trim?" meant, her SHELTIE now looks like this! They were both quite distraught!

7:07 am

I know I shouldn't laugh, but ....

7:08 am

must get started with my day...bbl...happy babbling and gridding

7:08 am

well, I think she is cute, and no shedding to contend with for a while at least

7:08 am

Later lideola

7:09 am

bye lideola. I love your Grover

7:09 am

True, Shawnee! My daughter feels terrible though; her Sheltie is like her baby. But I agree -- I think she looks pretty cute, just not like a Sheltie.

7:10 am

Apparently it will take six months or so for the hair to grow out, or longer

ch1212 - your friend has a Sheltie?

oh that looks pretty bad!

7:11 am

My daughter, lickety -- a darling little Sheltie who is almost a year old now

Our darling sheltie is 2 and a half.

7:12 am

So you know how sheltie's are supposed to look :)

they are amazing dogs - really a member of the family - we don't have fences in our yard, but it doesn't matter.

she sleeps on our bed, has to be with us where ever we go, just a darling temperment - very cute - very funny, playful, loving - We get kisses in bed every morning, then she rolls on her back making ruff ruff noises.

7:13 am

They are indeed. My sister has 3, and I used to babysit them whenever she had to go out of town. All three are trained rehabilitation dogs, where they visit the local hospitals and nursing homes.

7:13 am

i need a j, someone help me find a j

yeah - the public loves them - we get people come up to them - but normally she goes to them

7:14 am

((Lickety))

7:14 am

And one of them goes to the library and participates in the 'reading' program for kids, where she puts her paw on the pages as the children read to her.

7:14 am

ja 4 & ja 5

hi Haz

8:15 am

Hello sprite!

8:15 am

yw scarlet

8:16 am

Annie, you're going to the movies for the Tommy Lee Jones movie? You WILL be back for the 6:00 Big Show, right?

8:18 am

Scarlet, everything is ready right now.....Bobby and I will be "dining" in the livingroom...I turned the TV off after Big Papi hit the HR, of course the Bosox won...did they not.....what did the Phillies do? do you know?

8:18 am

Phillies lost to the Rocks, and my Cubbies couldn't get more than one run to beat the Snakes...

8:18 am

sorry to throw all these questions at you?

8:19 am

so Rhett is a happy camper?, Scarlet?

8:19 am

So Arizona is looking very good, and the poor Phillies could not do it in front of the worst stadium crowd in this country... they booed Santa Claus, you know!

8:20 am

Rhett is a very happy man... we both think the Haloes don't have a chance... either in Fenway or out of it...

8:20 am

having fun here trying to figure out what it is you guys are talking about :)

8:21 am

sounds like a cross between a so4 and sports...

8:21 am

Baseball, sprite... the game of the gods... LOL

8:21 am

Soooo, a good movie and I hope a good game....go Yankees!

8:21 am

grin... ok, thanks :D

8:21 am

Oh sorry sprite. baseball

8:21 am

no need to say sorry, it was fun

8:22 am

Cleveland looks very good, Annie... but, yes, Go Yankees!!

8:23 am

LOL, sprite... it took me many weeks to figure out what the word "footie" meant in chat, but finally, the light dawned!

8:23 am

The Yankees will beat the Indians, mark my words...you heard it here

8:23 am

I still don't know, lol

8:24 am

YES'm AnnieBrooklyn!

8:25 am

I sort of intuited that it meant the European version of "football" meaning soccer, sprite... Iwill hear from many if I am wrong.

8:25 am

LOL, now that I have SPOKEN, time to clean the mess I made in the kitchen making coffee........

8:25 am

ah ok, the football as opposed to the more rugby like type. Big difference indeed! Thank you.

8:26 am

LOL, Annie... we have chile and hoagies all set for the 3 kick-off of another long day, sigh, of baseball. Have a good time at the movies and Go Yanqueros!

8:26 am

I hope I'm right,sprite... I will have the wrath of many rugby and soccer fans on my neck if I am ignorant... LOL

8:27 am

Thanks Scarlet...having an early lunch with a friend and then on to the movie...see you after the game

8:27 am

hey, if I ever lie, it will be in commision :)

8:27 am

mornin all, sprite been lovin the vids here, ty

8:29 am

Hello and good morning, grammaterri!

8:29 am

my beloved husband took me upstairs and warmed me and cuddled me until I could relax a bit more. It is a man to cherish until the end of time, I can tell you.

same to ya scarlet

8:29 am

hi gramma

8:29 am

I am glad, gramma! It was so much fun to pick them and it is now to share them.

I bet it is, I have so many fav videos on youtube it would be hard to pick lol

8:31 am

sprite, you have a good eye for off-the-wall and interesting videos... the man who played the guitar across his lap was very interesting!

man I want maniac in the grid lol

8:31 am

if you could make a list and send them to mrP or lickety, they would be much obliged, gramma, and we would appreciate sharing your picks!

ok I will, ty sprite

8:31 am

Good morning my friends!

8:32 am

oh yes, I loved him, Scarlet! And the pleasure he has while doing it - that is what triggered my interest the most, I think. He glows from the inside.

hi ya mom

8:32 am

morning Mom!

8:32 am

Hi Grammaterri, I haven't seen you in awhile. How are you?

8:32 am

Morning Sprite. Glad to see you again

doing good, I kept grandkids all summer so was very busy

8:33 am

Sprite my fingers are crossed for you and your husband. My prayers also

8:33 am

I bet you were busy, Gramma

I did get to finish most of the grids, just no time to chat lol

8:33 am

if these are your grandkids in those pics, gramma, they seem to have a wonderful time. Great kids!

8:33 am

Mom, that means so much to me, to us. Thank you :)

8:34 am

was lurking earlier (sweetie was helping) so couldn't talk

ty, yes they are all well adjusted happy kids, thank God

8:34 am

you are so welcome {{hugs}}

8:34 am

Good morning, Mom!

8:34 am

lovely grandchildren Gramma

8:35 am

Good morning Scarlet {{Hugs}}

8:35 am

not a monster, but large enough grid today

ty mom I think so ( :

8:35 am

a pleasant grid so far

8:35 am

:)

Scarlet is the pic from your garden.....

I have 113 and now the words are hiding lol

8:36 am

Morning Nono

so I am diving back in, happy babbling all

hi Mom!

8:36 am

I have managed 55 so far. I would like to get 1/2 way

8:36 am

you too Gramma

8:36 am

happy babbling gramma

have 142 so far...

8:37 am

Gramma, I just looked at your icon, and saw the amazing Derek Jeter... No, Nono, I didn't grow peppers this year, but I would never eat the habaneros, either! Today's theme is "Hot Food"

8:37 am

excellent Nono, you will be finished in no time

8:39 am

Nono, I have a whopping 81!

8:39 am

you are 20 ahead of me, Scarlet. :)

8:39 am

relax guys... every word you find is a little victory!

keep going scarlet... ive been on since 6 am

8:40 am

little victories are what keep us going

8:40 am

LOL, Mom... yes, sprite, the spiritual way of measuring half-full and half-empty! Ohmigosh, Nono...

took a break for breakfast and had to make a couple of phone calls but been searching the grid while not doing other things

8:41 am

stupid J words, finally got them

8:41 am

it is how I play, really. I enjoy every word I find. Even if it is a K and that is saying a lot. Just as with sudoku. No matter which one, every new number I find contributes to the final solution. I play for fun... so I find fun in every step, lol.

8:42 am

I tried Sudoku and could not do it. Which frees up more time for babble

8:42 am

see, a sunside to everything!

8:42 am

:)

i always finish sudoku before coming to babble

8:43 am

There is the story of the little things that too many of us take for granted: each day "gifts" us with small victories, and if we stop to truly appreciate them, we wrap them in the gentleness of our memories and then throw them over our shoulder. As the days pass and months accrue, we continually move forward... but if we peek back on our paths, we have a mountain of beautiful things to take us into reality of some of the harsher things in life... it softens our pain... Enjoy today... that's why it is called "The present"

8:44 am

that is very pretty Scarlet.

8:44 am

Thank you, Mom.

8:45 am

I love that, Scarlet. I treasure the quote: Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it is called: the present.

love that outlook scarlet

8:45 am

*Hugs to all* Thank you for adding to the philosophical tone of the morning... Thank you, Nono.

8:45 am

I cross stitched a saying a while back that gets me through the rough spots: I know God won't give me anything I can't handle I just wish he didn't trust me so much

8:46 am

this is by far the best site and community everywhere. You guys are really precious.

8:46 am

LOL, perfect, Mom...

8:46 am

thank you Scarlet

8:46 am

LOLLLLLLL Mom... my thoughts exactly! Wonderful saying.

8:46 am

I agree, sprite!

8:47 am

Sprite, I agree. Even though I have not met you in person, I think of you all as my friends.

8:48 am

same here, Mom. There is a friendship in spirit, if not in the flesh, between many members here.

8:48 am

I talk about everyone to my sweetie so often, I think if something happened to me he would come and tell everyone.

8:49 am

That is so comforting, Mom... we have such a true center of caring here...

8:49 am

that would be great, Mom... the telling, not the need to, of course! We'd want to know... and help give some support.

8:49 am

it is because of him, that I am even here. He found this site for me

8:50 am

I think you don't call him your sweetie for nothing... he sounds truly special

8:50 am

I hope he never has to come tell you all anything :)

8:50 am

My daughter is the original holder of this site, and knows my love of words, so she "gifted" me with it, and at the end of October, I will have my one-year anniversary (!) in Babble. Yes, Mom... never!

8:51 am

nope, please not. We love to have you around here and wish you only good!

8:51 am

he is so special. It is rare that I even refer to him by his given name, which is a beautiful name, an old family name. His name is Shaler. :)

8:51 am

yay Scarlet!

8:51 am

I can't believe that you played for a year and never chatted, Mom... now, you are very much a part of the "sweetest ladies" of Babble!

8:51 am

Heck, I will just die of meanness. lol

8:51 am

aw, that sounds special too!

8:52 am

Beautiful name, Mom...

8:52 am

Yeah, sure, Mom...

8:52 am

thank you Scarlet. I am a bit on the shy side (don;t laugh)

8:52 am

We named our first son after his daddy but call him Shay.

8:53 am

we do not laugh, Mom. I can totally imagine it is not easy to drop in into the often quite intimate chat here. But I do hope it is still very open and friendly to whomever dares to drop :)

8:53 am

Is that name, by any chance, Scottish in origin, Mom?

8:53 am

Goooooood Morning, Baaaaaablerrrs!

8:54 am

love both Shaler and Shay

8:54 am

Helllllllllloooooooooooo, Judi!

Morning Judi

8:54 am

ah well Judi, was that you whispering there? A good morning to you :)

8:54 am

Tee-hee........

8:54 am

I don't know, Scarlet. His uncle, who lived down in the mountains of KY is who he is named after. I will have to ask him about that

8:54 am

Good morning Judi :)

8:55 am

I just figured it was a moonshiners name lol

8:55 am

Hahhahhaha....

8:56 am

Shay is originally an Irish name, i think it was first found in County KerrY

8:57 am

Thank you, craggus, and good morning!

8:57 am

Thank you Craggus

8:57 am

and good morning

8:57 am

8:58 am

Are you feeling any better, craggus... or working on a cold?

8:59 am

if anything slightly worse today so stayed off work again and just relaxing

8:59 am

Mom, I found this: Its source is Seaghdha, a Gaelic name meaning "Admirable."

8:59 am

OH, the old Babble Cure for Anything Which Ails Us... gotcha!! ;-)

8:59 am

very wise, craggus

8:59 am

9:00 am

Poor redshoes. You were expecting sympathy, weren't you?

10:37 am

of course. coddle me, dang it.

10:37 am

10:38 am

=)

10:38 am

10:44 am

The counterpart to the King's rod may be rendered in two different ways.

Oh good! Haven't got a dog, haven't done the grid but lovely sunshine here .

10:44 am

10:44 am

Well, one out of three isn't bad. Your favourite god is there.

10:44 am

oh my

10:45 am

thanks guys

10:45 am

It's not a rod! It accompanies the rod but is shaped like a globe.

10:45 am

hey, craggus :-)

10:45 am

sounds like a cheesy historical romance

10:45 am

What? He is supposed to be out working and I find him lazing in the grid!! Typical.

10:45 am

oh right. I think of the whole thing together... however... I supposed "king's rod" doesn't sound very good... ha.

10:45 am

Take your eyes off the god of love at your peril.

10:46 am

Good Lord! The one day I don't bother coming here until late and it's a big grid.

10:46 am

hey uneaixoise!

10:46 am

Hello, btw.:-)

10:46 am

wow... yesterday some co-player in a computergame pissed me off big time... and I told him so... told him again today and he actually apologised. Miracles never cease. I might learn to like being direct :)

10:46 am

Hello Jacula!

10:46 am

howdy, jac!

10:46 am

Afternoon Jacs. Did you find a good place for bunny?

You can't beat it, sprite.

10:46 am

10:47 am

I put him under the plum trees by the statue of St. Francis, FMitch.

10:47 am

Sounds perfect.

10:47 am

oh yes! And without being agressive, I just told him I play for fun and having him pressure me was not fun. I feel better about myself for this :)

10:47 am

I suppose I'd better go and dress for the 'hot food' theme.

10:48 am

it's a bird . . . it's a plane . . . it's . . . SuperBabbler Sprite!!

10:48 am

We will be good!

10:49 am

how do you celebrate? gather all the little animals about and sing them songs?

10:49 am

LOL Haz... you can annoy me as much as you want. You have special permission, remember :)

10:49 am

in a lot of places they have "blessing of the animals"

10:49 am

oh sure we can have hornpipes but not cornpipes

10:49 am

I thought oct 4 was his dying day?

10:50 am

oh yeah...i;ve forgotten about that

10:50 am

That's true, sprite. Just don't let power go to my head. I could be dangerous.

well a fine day i picked then to hit a doe...or she picked to hit me

10:50 am

pretty close, lideola, in some places they bless the animals

10:50 am

oh, nooooo!!!

10:50 am

you ARE dangerous, Haz. It is when you're at your best. Don't hold in on my account.

10:50 am

oh where did it happen TO? i am gathering you are ok since you are here

10:50 am

but I bless my animals every day, with my presence

10:50 am

A power crazed Bulldozer, you dont want to aggrevate that!

10:50 am

This must be how James Bond feels when given a mission.

10:51 am

I attend St. Francis church and we are going have a special mass for peace

You could say anything, FMitch and run the risk of the penalty box.

11:01 am

*sticks tape over mouth*

11:01 am

Are you going to do the grid, or do you not have time?

11:01 am

11:01 am

As if they were going to last until now.

12:30 pm

thanks for all of you who sent him support, it is much much appreciated!

12:32 pm

oh no :(:(

12:33 pm

they said they would have loved to get him as a collegue and they thought he was a very strong practical coach... but they wanted more of a salesperson

12:34 pm

only good news is, they asked if they could approach him if something else came up, or even if they heard about a good job for him at another firm

12:34 pm

yay that's good!

12:35 pm

and they tipped him off about a firm that is looking for intercedents in the construction... at least that is positive and he said he would go check it out.

12:35 pm

I hope it is good. Forgive me if I lose faith now for a bit.

12:37 pm

*hugs*

12:37 pm

thanks :)

12:38 pm

well I've just found out something EVEN WORSE! (well, not really)

12:38 pm

what is it?

12:39 pm

somehow during whatever A'net did, Val has somehow now not that D**N MISSION THAT TOOK A WEEK TO DO!

12:39 pm

how is that possible?

12:40 pm

which one... the one we did together?

12:40 pm

I have no idea! but I just travelled through the orchard and the mission sign is there again

12:40 pm

no! the single person HARPY one!

12:40 pm

oh LOLLLLLLL

12:41 pm

Ata... darling... the mission sign is there ALWAYS

12:41 pm

you can do the mission 100,000 times if you like

12:41 pm

really????!!! oh PHEW!

12:41 pm

I was about to cry!

12:41 pm

just check the M map. Is the icon blinking? Only then you havet to do it. If the swords are there, don't worry...

12:42 pm

thank you thank you! now I just wish I could sort your sadness out so easily!

12:42 pm

was just about to suggest something like that, LOL

12:43 pm

at least it wasn't a case of they didnt think he was good enough, it was just that they wanted someone with different skills

12:45 pm

yes, they were very clear about that. The guy that called was totally serious when he said he would really have wanted my husband as his collegue. I think they are also serious about keeping him in mind.

12:46 pm

if that was just a formality thing to say, they would have said it like that... we keep your data available a little longer sir...

12:46 pm

yes, exactly/ its nothing that reflects badly on your husband, they just wanted a different type of person

12:47 pm

When one door closes another opens!

12:48 pm

I only.... ah, never mind. Done is done and my wishes have never meant much to the big guy upthere. No reason why that would be any different now, would it.

12:49 pm

but your immediate wishes might not be so good long term, for some reason. he knows what he's doing!

12:49 pm

and, what is behind door # 4????? A whole supply of toilet paper for a full year, what a luck!

12:50 pm

better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!

12:50 pm

you are right, of course, Ata. I think I better allow myself a boot of bitterness and then go on with life with a more positive attitude... as ever.

12:50 pm

at least I love having toilet paper in supply... hate to be almost without.

12:53 pm

Toilet paper is a Very Important Thing.

12:54 pm

You can even wipe your nose on it when you're sad about things.

12:54 pm

true. Anyone doubting that statement will change his mind once he has been without for a weekend.

12:55 pm

Evening everyone :-)

12:55 pm

Sorry to leap into a serious discussion with flippancy! =)

12:55 pm

exactly! and sometimes flippancy is a good thing!

12:55 pm

Vicuna, I am glad you do :) Hi katieW

12:56 pm

http://www.flickr.com/photos/elegaer/1 484058773/

12:56 pm

that should cheer you up :)

12:57 pm

awwwwww that is so sweet

12:57 pm

*grins* she just doesn't *quite* fit in her basket, there's always a bit hanging out!

12:57 pm

Sweet, Ata. And it's very forbearing of you not to have tickled that ear. (Or at the very least, not until after taking the picture.)

12:58 pm

seriously adorably

12:58 pm

seriously adorable even

12:59 pm

I didnt actually! she was soooo fast asleep, and making cute suckling noises

12:59 pm

lol

1:00 pm

how are the preparations going??

1:00 pm

Well, obviously at the moment I'm not working!

1:00 pm

I think I'm in good shape. I need to frame one more thing and couldn't find the right size frame...

1:01 pm

so I'll have to mat a new one to a size frame I have...

1:01 pm

or else, of course, just skip it. And I need to xerox more notecards and can't find one of my copy masters...

1:01 pm

SO I must have left it in the xerox machine last time I made copies.

1:02 pm

And I can't get my stupid computer to print the jpgs the way I want to make a new copy master...

1:02 pm

the usual annoyances then!

1:02 pm

(Stupid program, actually, not really computer's fault!)

1:02 pm

sounds relatively normal to me...

1:02 pm

Exactly. So I'm irritated, but not stressed out.

1:02 pm

argh. printing. ARGH

1:04 pm

printing should be so easy ...

1:05 pm

I haven't been able to find a photo printing program I like since the old one crashed in the spring.

1:05 pm

I want to do something perfectly simple and it WON'T LET ME!!!

1:05 pm

you can't get anotehr copy?

1:05 pm

Nope, it's too old. It's no longer supported.

1:06 pm

what was your old one?

1:06 pm

Admittedly if I were willing to spend hundreds of dollars I could possibly find one that did what I want.

1:07 pm

lol - a chance for me to display my ignorance! I don't remember what it was called. My husband is in charge of computers in our house and he searched all over to get it back running for me!

1:07 pm

Now I'm using iPhoto and it's driving me loopy.

1:08 pm

iPhoto sounds worrying ..

1:09 pm

what do you want a program to do?

1:09 pm

It's got a million bells and whistles for printing fancy scrapbook pages or something, and it lets you do "I'm a complete technophobe" printing...

1:10 pm

but what do you really need it to do?

1:10 pm

I want to be able to arrange multiple photos on a page, with the orientation and size I request.

1:10 pm

That's all!

1:11 pm

you got powerpoint?

1:12 pm

I've never used it. But I'm sure if I don't my husband does.

1:12 pm

that works, usually. you can make a blank slide, and copy / paste the pics in however you want

1:12 pm

hideous grid, or just me?

1:13 pm

You're not hideous, hurshy!

1:13 pm

hideous grid

1:13 pm

Hmm... I'll ask him about that. Thanks.

1:13 pm

microsoft publisher, i think, is intended for that, but you could make due with pp

1:14 pm

you are nice, hurshy. The grid is fun from where I am standing, but I have a totally rotten day.

1:14 pm

yeah, publisher's even better, but for a simple thing, PP works fine

1:14 pm

or i think adobe pagemaker?

1:14 pm

(And by the way, Ata, these ongoing printer problems have to do with why you haven't recieved your Babble trading card from me yet! *sorry!*)

1:14 pm

I always use paintshop pro, but that is not really easy

1:15 pm

you *can* even do it in excel if you white out the cell markings

1:15 pm

*is embarrassed that she's still not even started babble trading cards*

1:15 pm

I'd completely forgotten about it!

1:15 pm

true, in the print options just uncheck "print grid lines"

1:16 pm

You folks are full of good ideas!

1:16 pm

just don't try it in word. thats not worth the hassle

1:16 pm

:P on word

1:17 pm

I couldn't get the hang of pagemaker. It's close enough to photoshop that I thought I could figure it out, but different enough that I couldn't!

1:17 pm

word works fine :D

1:18 pm

just make sure you make every image moveable ;)

1:18 pm

word is always thinking it knows what you want when it doesn't and changing stuff on you

1:18 pm

not when positioning pictures, it goes all wonky

1:18 pm

it's a know-it-all program

1:18 pm

I hate it when the programs try to be helpful!

1:18 pm

lol... you guys need to train your word better, I can tell

1:18 pm

yes! and while sometimes it works fine with pictures, the rest of the time it just drives you up teh wall

1:18 pm

programs must do what we tell them and nothing more or less

1:19 pm

my word is very well trained. as far as it can be LOL

1:19 pm

It's a question of who's to be in charge!

1:19 pm

And alas, I am not always a very firm master.

1:20 pm

bad vi :)

1:21 pm

lol. I just wimp out and go crying to hubby!

1:21 pm

easiest :)

1:22 pm

I mean, after all, I can't be a genius at everything.

1:23 pm

FIREWORKS finally

1:23 pm

1:32 pm

1:32 pm

1:33 pm

I need to find Val's next primary quest

1:34 pm

1:34 pm

5:22 pm

Oh, didn't know there were more. Haven't looked at the stats list yet.

6:02 pm

6:02 pm

Uh oh...cat's acting like a lunatic and jumping all over the place, guess I'm meant to get her supper. Then I'll go to bed with grid unfinished, probably to dream of obscure words that might have been. 'Night folks.

6:36 pm

Oh no, not yet, she tried to leap off the side of my bed yesterday while I was changing her nappy....

6:36 pm

Making a bid for freedom?

6:36 pm

the result : me clinging furiously to one of her legs as she dangled from the wrong side of t he bed....

7:33 pm

That should be a fun trip for him! What about Les?

7:33 pm

Oh -- and what about the cello?

7:33 pm

hah! the bigger the puzzle, the more obscure words there could be

7:33 pm

Hepll stay with Les tonight and fly out very early Friday to Winnipeg where he as concerts Sat. and Sun

7:34 pm

loaded everything onto the float plane Jill, SS Air was very obliging

7:34 pm

When did Les leave SSI?

7:34 pm

*He'll*

7:34 pm

Doren--your name is in the grid!

7:35 pm

Les went back to Van. Wed.

7:35 pm

I know Scrabb-- does that automatically give me extra points??

7:35 pm

I am not staying long, just dropping in briefly. I am exhausted and must go to bed soon.

7:35 pm

hard day?

7:36 pm

hey there, my stoopid internet provider thoughtfully kicked me out, and after 6 restars on my computer, has let me back in...

7:36 pm

wb Aussie

7:36 pm

the site was funky, aussie

7:36 pm

Doren---you get a bonus of 1,000,000 points and fly to the top of the rankings. That will get the leaders ruffled---Sprite, Periwinkle, Marigold, etc

7:36 pm

welcome back aussie

7:36 pm

tyvm...

7:37 pm

7:37 pm

altho peri gets her name in a lot...maybe that's how she got to the top??

7:37 pm

I had a sleep study last night and, well, it is hard to sleep hooked up to wires and gadgets, and get woken up at 5:12 AM.

7:37 pm

thanks pam, I was in the middle of telling you that it was over 12 years ago, when the site went all funky on me....

7:38 pm

7:38 pm

Still, I can 't imagine... ((((((((hugs))))))))

7:38 pm

get a good night tonite scrabs....

7:38 pm

Hey, scrabs! Do you think they found apnea? CPAP in your future?

7:38 pm

I see by scrolling back that the site crashed a wile ago -- I had noticed a glitch but was leaving anyway for a bit -- apparently stayed away just long enough

7:38 pm

The original players, that have stayed with Babble, are the ones with high point totals.

7:38 pm

SHHHHH pam! to the penalty box

7:41 pm

Hi featherbee--I saw a 10 lb newborn this AM at the hospital.

7:42 pm

7:42 pm

owie!

7:42 pm

I slept from 11-5:12 (when I was awoken). It was a room like a hotel room. Nice bed. TV with Dish Network. I fell asleep reading Harry Potter.

7:43 pm

both my boys seem to have done growth spurts recently

7:43 pm

that's good at least

7:43 pm

They grow overnight, don't they, Feather?

7:43 pm

7:43 pm

they must!

7:43 pm

I am going to a baby shower Saturday and had fun buying clothes today.

7:44 pm

boy or girl?

7:44 pm

7:45 pm

7:46 pm

7:47 pm

Jill add a cons. to previous word

7:47 pm

ooer, tr6/21 means to cut out a shallow by using one of these !!

7:47 pm

tr + it's not easy being gr***

7:47 pm

thanks flo

7:47 pm

In the office I got peed on by a 1 wk old baby boy--well, I blocked it with my hand when the hose turned on. The mother was horrified and I was laughing.
