3:37 am

happy new year hydra!!

3:38 am

hydra, your story about the jewelry gift cracked me up!!

3:38 am

I feel a teensy bit the worse for wear today. How are you, Fran?

3:38 am

Hi Fran and to you. Yours is yet to come.

3:38 am

we're still 22 minutes away from the 1st over here. :-)

3:39 am

Ooh, how exciting! The fireworks in London were brilliant, tho I only watched them on TV

3:39 am

the fireworks are going off all around us, that's why we're hiding out inside with the windows closed and air-conditioning on.

3:39 am

The dog and I watched the fireworks last night. He loves them. Me with a glass of pink bubbly in my hand.

3:40 am

you really know how to party frances. :-)

3:40 am

I had pink bubbly too, and saw in the New Year with my bloke and the young couple from down the road and their ten week old baby Ethan.

3:41 am

You have do something when there's just you and the dog for company. Not seeing my bloke until later today.

3:42 am

I don't think my brain can cope with Babble this morning. I can't seem to find the words. I ordered two T-shirts from Dr God's website and they arrived yesterday. They are fab. I got a tree of life one for me.

3:43 am

Don't think he makes them marquee size. I like room to squirm.

3:43 am

lol frances!

3:43 am

Frances, you've just given me my first laugh of 2008!

3:44 am

My pleasure hydra. My first new year revolution - make people laugh.

3:44 am

well, i'll be bringing in the new year with you folks, my husband is at a gig! :-(

3:45 am

Tell him al work and no play makes jack a dull boy!

3:46 am

that's okay, you guys are great company. :-)

3:46 am

Which band is it, FranMag?

3:46 am

.....another phantom futility

3:46 am

he and his buddy are doing sound for a local band, i forget their name.

3:47 am

i think i tried that 2 or 3 times frances

3:47 am

I'm glad your here with us. Let us know when midnight strikes...

3:48 am

About eight minutes and counting

3:50 am

How many words do you still have to find, Frances? Can you finish the grid before 2008?

how many words today?

3:51 am

64 ace

3:51 am

64, ace

3:51 am

happy new year!

hydra - thanks, and i might even finish it ;-)

3:51 am

9 more minutes here

Happy 2008, everybody!

3:52 am

Happy New Year to you too, ace. Whereabouts are you?

3:52 am

Already 2008 hydra so missed that one. Haven't long started. Only got 33 so far

hydra - i'm in New Jersey, USA, within sight of the Manhattan skyline

3:53 am

Happy new year ace

3:54 am

Sorry, Frances, that one was directed at FranMag! I know you're in my time zone. Hey ace, will there be lots of fireworks there?

hydra - there were fireworks in NYC at midnight, but it's almost 5 AM now. i didn't go into the city; you have to get there in early afternoon to get a place to stand, and once you're in Times Square, you can't leave until after midnight... and there are *no bathrooms*

3:56 am

i finished a while ago hydra, i just left the window open while i'm doing other things

3:56 am

4 minutes now!

3:57 am

That's exactly why I didn't go into London, ace. I need my creature comforts!

i just watched it on TV. i had drinks and munchies with my husband. hes asleep now, but i'm sorta winding down, and i figured i'd come play Babble for a bit.

3:59 am

1 minute!

3:59 am

h

3:59 am

Happy New Year Fran and everyone else! Have to get it in before the blip. :-)

6:35 am

Thanks ace!

6:35 am

all i need is tu5,16

6:37 am

thanks ace, i thought i tried that on another puzzle and they said it wasn't in the dictionarya. but it works this time!

anna - i haven't been playing long enough to understand this game :-(

6:39 am

ace i've only been playing for three days! Got hooked fast. But tu 16 is the same sounding word but spelled differently for a flat ****

6:40 am

tu**** beware

6:40 am

thanks anna! Maybe it has something to do with informality of speech in french?

anna - the tu5,16 i'm looking for is the last tu - comes after a ballerina's skirt

6:41 am

that's the one anna just agev ace

i don't get it :-(

6:41 am

6:43 am

ace it's not a familiar word

6:43 am

6:43 am

ace do you have the tu*** beware one that Anna suggested?

eva - no, and that's my last one

6:43 am

6:44 am

Tanja i'm stuck on that one myself

6:44 am

anytihng i can helpwith ? I have allthe others

tanja - er + first 3 letters of Coupe De***lle

**Uni** You have mail!

9:36 am

Happy New Year everyone

9:37 am

I just read it! I am about to do another celebration myself, as I have switched from LoriPs to my Dads, so I will have to wait and respond later. Thanks for writing though! I was worried..

9:37 am

i am going to ask this question every day in 2008 ... are any of you tangleword players and have any of you found a tangle site to play at that is truly comparable?

hi mom, u2

9:37 am

{{{Mom}}} You are one of the nicest people, no matter what the calendar says... The very best to you and yours!!

9:37 am

Happy New Year Mom!

9:37 am

Mom, morning! thanks for the fun! Happy New Year!

9:37 am

'Tis okay, Uni... When you have a free breath to draw... all is well!

i was a tangle player cheeky, played atari boggle before that too and now both are gone

9:38 am

Is tangle the one which shut down a month or so ago? Or did anoher one close?

9:38 am

fe6, please?

9:39 am

I was a tangle player

9:39 am

i dont know when tangle shut down, i had a bad month

there aren't really any other competitive sites, although you can play wordscape at iwin and yahoo wordracer against others, they are not the same though as they are not boggle boards

9:39 am

I was a tangler too... it was a bad month

if you want to play a boggle board, and don't care that there is no competitive play then try www.wordtwist.org

9:40 am

oilite

9:40 am

good thing there's no such word, eh? my apologies

9:40 am

Aren't there applications on facebook which are akin to competitive boggle? Noggin and Scramble?

9:40 am

I want virtue from this grid and it isn't happening...

9:40 am

sorry, sweetie needed some helo

9:40 am

That's okay, cuz we got the fa6 instead

9:40 am

LOL, Lady... good morning!

9:41 am

gm scarlet... happy 2008

une can you clue the wonderful fa 6??

9:41 am

{{Scarlett}} happy new year. Thanks for the compliment, what does the calendar say?

9:41 am

{{Uni}} happy new year

oh I have it already!!!

9:41 am

And to you, Lady... I am hoping for a year of peace but then, I am rather idealistic... {{Mom}}

9:42 am

and good morning to all who came in while I was away

9:42 am

The calendar says a different year, Mom... and a loving heart pays no attention to a date... it is consistent...

9:43 am

I would like to think I have a loving heart.

9:43 am

I was starting to think that someone made a calendar of bad things about mom...

9:43 am

LOL... impossible... Mom rocks, and that will never change!

9:43 am

that would be funny, Uni, and not to difficult to do lol

9:44 am

how sweet of you to say so, Scarlet

9:44 am

NO! NO! NO!

9:44 am

Now, Uni, on the other hand...

9:44 am

Now Scarlet, tantrums may be fun but they just won't give you what you want...

9:44 am

:O Moi?

9:45 am

*<< I am raching for the green beans*>>

9:45 am

lol Scarlet, I thinkUni is a sweetheart

9:45 am

Or, *reaching* even...

9:46 am

just made a double batch of Manhattan clam chowder if anyone wants any

9:46 am

Mom... (don't tell Uni, but I think so, too), you can be fooled by appearances... look at her big, sweet eyes...

9:46 am

:), lovely eyes

9:46 am

Oh, Mom... I made a batch of New England clam chowder... here's the oyster crackers everyone... dig in to your heart's delight!@

9:47 am

[/doe eyes]...Ugh, clam chowder. What about corn chowder?

9:48 am

I know I am a bit late on this one Mom, but I alwasy wondered what sort of election your honey won...Are you the frist lady? ;)

9:48 am

Can do, Uni... whatever you want! When is your birthday... I read a few weeks ago that you had a lurking Virgo somewhere in your life...

9:48 am

eww neither one sounds good to me

9:48 am

never had any type of chowder

9:48 am

and don't intend to

9:48 am

Happy 2008 P2H... do you like spiced crackers?

9:48 am

Late August...far far away

9:49 am

Oh praise...corn chowder is delicious!

9:49 am

Happy 2008 to you too Scarlet

9:49 am

My sister is August 30th and I am Sept. 20... both true Virgo types!

9:49 am

I like any kind of crackers

9:49 am

I am a cusper..a fierce lionish virgo, if you will?

9:50 am

I am a Gemini

9:50 am

These spiced crackers are easy to make and I have made in the vicinity of 15 pounds of them through the holidays... Lionish, Uni... meow...

9:50 am

hubby will attest to the changing moods

9:50 am

I am a scorpio

9:51 am

Mmm, crackers. Yay changing moods! :)

9:51 am

never had spiced crackers either

9:51 am

LOL, P2H... I am consistent... Mom, then you are very detail-oriented and have a special approach to the problems of living...

9:51 am

am I? detail-oriented. I think we call that anal here in KY

9:52 am

lol mom

9:52 am

I'm emotional...but obsessed with the appearanceof order. A list, book, word lover.

LOL uni

9:54 am

Capricorns are extremely ambitious, but not to the extent of leaving a body trail.. they want to accomplish good things in life, and family is paramount...

9:54 am

as a teenager, i can tel you: drinking and partying are immensely over-rated. I dislike both.

9:55 am

i had a drink with the neighbours then went to bed, nothing exciting

9:55 am

Happy, happy 2008 to everyone!!!1

9:55 am

{{Annie}} Happy New Year to you

9:59 am

Thanks, and back at you, pink!!!!

9:59 am

You weren't the only one Annie...

9:59 am

Did she disappear again?

9:59 am

I wonder if, as a Babble Community, we can meditate on sending peace, love and good will across the planet, and maybe change the warring going on all over...

9:59 am

some are very obscure *so i thought* P2H i struggled earlier on

9:59 am

Scarlet--that is a FABULOUS icon

10:00 am

sounds like a plan to me Scarlet

10:00 am

we can create a chain of peace, scarlet.

10:00 am

Well everyone, I am off! Enjoy each other, and I shall see you later!

10:00 am

count me in Scarlet

10:00 am

bye uni

10:00 am

10:00 am

Why, Annie? It has been super busy with the family things going on... Thank you, pam... I spent two hours looking for something that spoke my heart, and this icon is IT!'

it might be elusive, annie. but it is a worthy goal!

10:02 am

I sure hope its better than last year

10:02 am

I know, dear Annie.. but I live in hope... change begins with all of us, and if we can think positive things, maybe we can "effect" positivity...

10:03 am

indeed, shorty!

10:03 am

Pam, I am laughing very hard, I thought I had spelled elusive wrong...I kept looking at it and it looked right...and I didnt drink last night

10:03 am

Annie, I bet Bobby was ecstatic with the way the Giants played on Saturday night... what a great game, maybe one of the 10 best I've ever seen... LOL Pam... LOVE it

10:09 am

Scarlet, he was cheering away and then was crestfallen when the Jints lost, so was I, but they played a good game

10:09 am

They played a superb game... I honestly thought they might break the perfect year... but WOW, it was better than a Super Bowl...

10:09 am

Hey! Lickety's back!

10:09 am

my grandkids have photos with Eli Manning and the coach, they were able to go to their training camp

10:10 am

I'm playing while our football is on, we have a great round up programme which has all the news of goals and match updates on. We have a live match on in just over an hour

10:10 am

my brother is a HUGE giants fan, I used to be, LOL. But, I am glad they gave a good game. and, I heard they were pumped in the locker room afterwardss...

10:10 am

That is amazing, Annie... Eli had the game of his life against New England... it was a game for the ages.

10:10 am

Even I, who is not a football fan, watched the entire game...yes, it was a great game...poor Jints

10:10 am

It is so cool that you are such a fan, scarlet! I mean a football fan in general, let alone specific teams!

10:11 am

Scarlet is a deranged Met fan also

10:11 am

There is also a great hockey game today in Buffalo... the Sabres against the Pittsburgh Penguins, OUTSIDE in the stadium... EXCUSE me, Miss Annie...this coming from a demented Yankee fan?

3:45 pm

Hi MM!

tu 5/12 - recipient of instruction

3:46 pm

thanks

3:46 pm

we had a very nice party. thanks. The neighbors came over for a little bit but he drives cab so he had to work last night. Everyone else stayed until around 12:45. The visiting children helped Hannah straighten her room. It was good!

3:46 pm

is that really a word?? guess so!

3:47 pm

we really did have WAY too much food though.

TY Music Mom, I finally got it!

or rather helen keller

3:47 pm

now THAT's a party - someone straightening my rooms! Think I'll throw one of those soon

LOL - should have those kind of parties more often, maybe they can come over & help me straighten out my house!

3:48 pm

Helen and I will have a progressive party - one house after the other

3:48 pm

I was amazed because usually when we have other people over, the kids play in her room, trash it, and then I fight with her the next day to get it cleaned up.

3:48 pm

tu5/16??

3:48 pm

Hey a progressive house cleaning party, I want one of those

3:48 pm

That would be great! I usually have to clean up twice whenever someone comes over...

good idea - my friend says it's always easier to clean someone else's house than it is your own - so true

3:49 pm

Hmmm...maybe we are onto something big, here.

3:49 pm

Uni - me too. I did leave all the dishes in the sink last night and got up this morning and did them. I didn't run the vacuum (it wasn't noticably needed) before the party because I knew I would need to do it today.

3:50 pm

yep - easier to clean someone else's junk. I'm not emotionally attached to it.

6:04 pm

I am sure, dorens. must be hard to get into it,,,

6:04 pm

4s are always monkeyable ;)

6:05 pm

actually, it's easy to get back to my job... just help kids with problems, not a heavy schedule, i'm available as they need them... have a few groups scheduled but otherwise pretty free unless something heavy is happening

6:06 pm

oh, that's good, dorens...

6:06 pm

so what is the problem then, Dorens? Just want more days off or is there more to it?

6:06 pm

but they're doing construction on my school, so I have to pack up all my books, curricula, games, etc--figure out which ones I'll need for the next two weeks while they rewire my office and which go in deep storage. and deal with the mess that is my desk and file drawers

6:07 pm

that's what i don't want to deal with, but I'll feel so much better when it's all done and I'm reorganized. i just ought to do that at home too and I'd be in much better shape.

6:07 pm

ugh,,,,,,,,

6:07 pm

reorganization? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

6:07 pm

i think you said you were working yesterday, so not much of a vacation there, pam?

6:07 pm

argh, Dorens! *hug* Not easy at all.

6:08 pm

i just reogranized my closet, i can see the floor

6:08 pm

i am such a mess around here it's embarassing if anyone opens a cabinet trying to help put things away.

6:08 pm

hey nu5, you are in the grid today!

6:08 pm

wow *****, that's iimpressive (by the way... you were one of the last words I found, embarassed to say)

TY, Jill--I had tried that with an E and an N, but not the 4 alone

6:52 pm

6:52 pm

lol, scrab :)

6:52 pm

It seems like an incomplete word as spelled, doesn't it?

6:53 pm

It does, scrab, but it was in a recent puzzle too so it popped out of my memory bank

6:54 pm

I am now enerting it into my Babble hard drive, for future retrieval, along with roti, hisn, toea, mori, inia, etc.....

6:55 pm

lol, scrab!

6:56 pm

And hebe, tirl, sori, hila, etna, and some of the goofy ones in today's grid.

6:56 pm

Oooh, snowplow just went by. We got a lot of snow today and accumulation continues. We should be able to cross-country ski very soon.

6:57 pm

you will be in heaven then, Scrabbler

6:57 pm

don't forget anoa

6:58 pm

Yes, whatever that means..that isn't the hairy-nosed dolphin. Is that the temple?

6:58 pm

and odea (I have to say "Oh deah" to myself when I sopt that one)

6:58 pm

Mom, my favorite place to be is in the woods, or paddling and looking at nature.

6:58 pm

it's the Celebes Buffalo -- the temple is naoi or (I think) stoa

6:59 pm

you are one of the most outdoorsy people I know. It is nice that you enjoy it so much

6:59 pm

spot

6:59 pm

That is where I feel closest to God and get to know Him better--to be among his glorious creations.

7:00 pm

I personally like airn .. at least some of the others youve mentioned have easier to find definitions...

7:00 pm

ne 7/48?

7:00 pm

and they are glorious, aren't they

7:00 pm

Oh, yes: ait, ain, airt, and airn...

7:00 pm

Adjective to do something courageously

7:01 pm

took me forever to find a definition .. its what started my original rant about enable

7:01 pm

the def for airn was found the other day -- if you don't airn your clothes they'll be wrinkled (in Scotland)

7:01 pm

We rant about the Enable editors daily.

7:02 pm

Haha, Jill!

7:02 pm

yeah I know that now, but took me quite a while

7:02 pm

20 left and I am going to call it a night. Hugs to all of you. Good night and pleasant dreams

7:02 pm

but wouldn't it be boring if we didn't have something to rant about?

7:02 pm

Night Mom!

7:02 pm

{{Jilli}} good night

7:03 pm

Good night, Mom.

7:03 pm

Whining is an important part of life.

7:04 pm

Scrab -- re "airn" -- see http://tinyurl.com/k4evb

7:04 pm

would you like a little cheese with your whine? lol I say that a lot

7:06 pm

omg, that explains so many of the words i couldnt find... musta been a scot who made enable lol

7:07 pm

TY, Jill--fascinating language!

7:07 pm

ok time for a list I guess... I havent found a word on my own ina while

7:08 pm

there's the definition of airn somewhere in there -- but I see there's a lot of airt on the home page

7:08 pm

I just opened BJ's list, with 13 to go. It is easier than asking for what I am missing.

7:09 pm

I've been chatting too much -- stuck with 17 to go, must focus...

7:09 pm

airn = iron, the metallic element.

7:09 pm

yes, scrab, and the heavy anti-wrinkle thing

7:10 pm

jilli... you can 'Gang' the word on the left side

7:10 pm

Welcome, minveryork!

7:13 pm

Boy, you are stressed and sleep-deprived to consider that, featherbee!

7:14 pm

now i'm in the midst of deciding what airport to fly out of. do i want to use the airport that is extremely close to my house, yet pay 300 more and have a connecting flight in philadelphia, or do i want to drive 3 hours to white plains for a nonstop ticket for 300 less?

7:15 pm

The second option, Feather.

7:15 pm

boy, seeing it typed out like that, white plains seems the smarter option

7:15 pm

feather, what will you do with your car in White Plains?

7:15 pm

direct flights are nice...

7:15 pm

have to pay for parking angel. that's figured into the 300 more.

7:16 pm

featherbee, I live not far from White Plains. Used to work there. I am about 50 minutes away from White Plains.When are you going to Disneyland featherbee?

7:16 pm

7:27 pm

7:28 pm

7:52 pm

Argh, finally done, with both the phone call from mom of chronically constipated 5 yr old and with my last word (fu6, apparntly i couldn't find it because I live in the present, or maybe the past).

7:52 pm

congrats scrabbler!!!

7:53 pm

Congratz Scrabbler

7:53 pm

A laptop is one of many items on my wish list, but dental work, plumbing, flooring, painting are higher priorities,

7:53 pm

glad you are off of the phone and congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7:53 pm

Congratulations Scrabbler!!

7:53 pm

Scrabs, how is Mary?

7:53 pm

I'm splurging just a little right now.

7:53 pm

Laptops are amazing creatures Scrabbler, but not necessities (such as plumbing)

7:53 pm

Some good sales now, dox..

7:53 pm

Pam, I spent 2 hrs with MAry and her husband last evening. She mostly slept as the intense PT makes her tired.

7:54 pm

Did he get to spend the night with her as planned?

7:55 pm

(((((())))))) scrabs...

7:55 pm

When she awoke she just said, "I love you." She is so brave and unselfish. Yes, he slept over last night. She will start 2 chemo agents Thursday now that her bone marrow production has recovered from radation.

7:55 pm

Oh wow Scrabbler. I am glad he could spend time with her, that would be important for both

7:56 pm

Congratulations Scrabbler on fireworks!Good for you

7:56 pm

that sounds like it was very nice for both of them.

7:56 pm

He estimates 6 more wks of hospitalization for PT and to see how she reacts to chemo. Chemo will cont indefinitely--until tumor is gone!

7:56 pm

I am glad her marrow production has recovered...

7:56 pm

Has she been able to swallow?

7:57 pm

Mary's head is now shaved--she let her sister-in-law do it. Mary was fed up with wispy hair.

7:57 pm

Fireworks!!

7:57 pm

She still has some swallowing issues and is recovering from aspiration pneumonia that hit her Xmas eve.

7:57 pm

She sounds so strong in her weakness, Scrabs...

7:57 pm

Yahoo doxy!!

7:58 pm

congrats doxy and scrabb!!

7:58 pm

Yay Doxy!

7:58 pm

Mary is SO inspiring--I have not seen her whine and she cries only when discussing her children.

7:58 pm

Congratulations doxy1lover on fireworks! Good for U

7:59 pm

how old are her children?

7:59 pm

Scrab, will continue to keep her in my prayers...glad to hear she's still in good spirits

7:59 pm

The baby is now 12 wks old and Mary has had so little involvement with her so far. The older kids are 7 and 3 1/2/

8:00 pm

that sounds so hard for her and the kids.

8:00 pm

Yay, dox@!

8:00 pm

Did they find the cancer before she had the baby?

8:00 pm

The older kids are struggling at times, as expected. They want their mommy home.

8:02 pm

Of course they want their mommy... it's just so sad...

8:02 pm

She had symptoms for 5 wks, then labor was induced 3 wks before the due date, and a MRI revealed 5 brain tumors 2 days after delivery. Brain surgery was done 5 days after delivery and 2 tumors were removed. The others are inoperable.

8:02 pm

Oh wow. That is a stressful period for all

8:03 pm

It is SO sad, and still surreal to talk about or to see her.

8:03 pm

I am sure, scrabs...

8:03 pm

How are you holding up, scrabs?

Oh, scrabbler...my heart goes out to you and your friend and her family.

8:04 pm

Scrabbler I am impressed with all of you for holding up. That is a lot of strength

8:04 pm

I am sad a lot, not depressed fortunately but afraid of a relapse. I do what I can to help her, her husband and the kids, so I feel some control in a situtation in which we have no control.

8:05 pm

Mary is teaching us about strength, faith, hope, resilience and LOVE!

8:05 pm

scrabbler

8:06 pm

you sound like a great friend. lots of other people would not do what you have.

8:06 pm

Hey, I am a Georgia Peach too! Born at Emory Univ!

8:06 pm

my granddaughter is in a similar situation. I will be praying for all concerned.

8:06 pm

Scrabs, you amaze me, just as your friend and her family does

8:07 pm

going to go find new icons. see you all later.

8:07 pm

9:08 pm

Hi Aussieme, dawg, krista, buds, tyger and all

it's cold here in central MS, too, ping

they said we're in the deep freeze for 2-3 days

9:09 pm

oh joy, it's so good to see that green flash again!

9:09 pm

fortunately, aussie, only one really odd F word

LOL, aussie

9:09 pm

that's gotta be miserable for you tyger. MS isn't known for hard long freezes, is it?

the 6 is one used in politics here in the US *all* the time :sigh:

9:10 pm

brb -- need to refresh....my vodka on the rox....<vbg>

oh, jilli! :P

dawg, it makes it feel a bit like home (Mich), but I don't appreciate what it does to the utility bill

9:11 pm

i know that song all too well, tyger.

I just stay in as much as possible - just as I do in summer heat

9:11 pm

cripes, I got the fo7 !!!!!

yay, aussie

9:12 pm

well done, Aussie

it's not one I'd ever have gotten, except I saw a great clue for it

9:12 pm

that's the odd one i was talking about.

BTW, luv the new Max 'toon, dawg

9:13 pm

well, I got the fo4, and tried to build on it, it worked !!

you see I'm tooning at the mo, too

except, alas, not funny ones

9:13 pm

my maxine site is repeating the toons. :-(

great work, aussie

9:13 pm

just pesky fe's then thats the effing f's outta the way....

those last 3 letters are part of the other 7, too

hint, hint, aussie :D

well, one is pedal extremities

another is a celebration

another is shackles

oops, not plural

9:15 pm

political cartoons are very thought provoking. although i sometimes don't understand them...guess it's the point of view

I thought this one - and the one I had up the last 2-3 days - were fairly clear. aren't they??

9:16 pm

ti5/12 anybody? i'm stumped

9:16 pm

yes, the toons you've had and today's are very clear.

ti5 is archaic - has to do with farming (plowing, to be exact)

9:16 pm

put another consonant after the ti4...the first one, dabuds

a farmer ti**s the soil (2nd asterisk not correct)

word has AS verbal perfect tense ending

9:17 pm

how about the first ut 5?

9:18 pm

got it...thanks a bunch!

first one is plural of womb, ping

9:18 pm

ti 5/12 is ti + stick letter + common consanant blend.

yw for my part, buds

9:18 pm

Hi Min! welcome to the grid

9:18 pm

thanks, tyger

9:18 pm

Hello Minveryork, welcome to the grid, how are you ?

9:19 pm

Hello and happy new year

9:41 pm

So, I accidentally clicked on Lickety in my favourites and noticed a list posted for today. Thought they were on holidays until tomorrow. Well, off to make supper for real this time.

I have finished but soar all you lovely people and had to say hi

No Autum They got back on the First of the Year AUs time

9:42 pm

Absolutely, Aussie -- but I think we're ahead of you -- and 9 months behind the UK

9:42 pm

Eh? I live in the UK jilli....

9:42 pm

Oh, sorry, Aussie, I forgot you're in the UK

okay.... huge brain fart on my part....

9:43 pm

My polar bear won't be making it to the all star game!

9:43 pm

so here, aussie, the wicked Tracey just got sentenced to life

9:43 pm

;0) for jilli, everyone gets confused by me, no worries..... I wont tell you any plots or anything then....

Thats ok Autumn

My silly glasses are still all bent out of shape

9:44 pm

Oh Gosh jilli, I remember that......

9:44 pm

It gets worse jilli, much, much worse....

9:44 pm

dang, aussie -- but maybe you can fill me in on things I've missed -- if you can remember that far back

9:45 pm

ok, what did you miss ??.... hmmmm, hard to think of what happened.....

9:45 pm

hi herin

9:45 pm

did you see when whats her name killed her Dad Tommy ? from the garage ?

9:46 pm

katie, that was her name....

9:46 pm

thats a good while back now....

9:47 pm

the brillian CBC ran this story over the Christmas holidays and New Year's, so I didn't find out if Dreary testified against Tracey, or what dreadful David said. But I can go to CSVU I think.

9:47 pm

erm, **trying to remember**......

9:48 pm

I did get a hint somewhere that Dreadful David turns even badder

9:48 pm

David said he heard Charlie beating Tracey....

9:48 pm

David wants a good beating !!

9:48 pm

yes, the rotten little hotpantsed liar

9:49 pm

but I guess the jury didn't beleive David? What did Dreary do?

9:50 pm

I cant remember.... hang on....

wAVES

9:51 pm

9:54 pm

jilli, dreary had a panic attack in the witness box, she didnt testify....

9:54 pm

ah, thanks, aussie, that figures

9:55 pm

aussie, did you know jacula did some writing for Corrie?

9:55 pm

jilli, I use google, it tells you everything...... just google coronation street and he character you want to know about, then look on the wikipedia link

9:55 pm

9:56 pm

9:57 pm

10:04 pm

no kidding, think I'll the take the pups for a jog tomorrow! :)

10:41 pm

better half starts his yearly diet next week, then i'll eat and drink less (particularly drink), and he'll help me take the dogs for walks, it's much easier with a second person (3 dogs)

10:41 pm

10:42 pm

por favor?

10:43 pm

between can be said as be-tw5

10:44 pm

10:44 pm

wb aussie.

10:44 pm

10:44 pm

hmm, still can't figure it out shdybr...

10:45 pm

thanks guys.... is mkg still here?

10:45 pm

well, joe, it's 14 points when you add up the letters, so must have a high point letter......

10:45 pm

ok, olde worlde saying betw*** and between.....

I haven't been for a few days. No annual diet here just need to get fit

10:46 pm

joes, follow the letters.... 1, 5, 1, 6, 1 **point values**

10:47 pm

better half does a diet on "the first Monday after first Sunday in January" each year. He basically starves himself to a target weight

10:48 pm

i prefer just to walk the dogs more and go on eating!

10:48 pm

omg, i gave that phrase as part of clue yesterday. i am blind. ty both for help.

10:48 pm

very welcome Joes....

10:48 pm

glad you got it, joe

10:48 pm

Yippee! done and done.

10:48 pm

shdy, I have to follow a diet anyway, diabetic...

10:49 pm

34 to find, eyes drooping...

10:49 pm

auss - i'm going to heat up dinner, but i can clue when i get back momentarily.

10:49 pm

ok joes, see ya soon......

10:49 pm

that stinks, aussie...i don't diet, but i don't like chips, sweets, fried stuff, just tend to prefer lighter foods

SHady that is SILLYu

10:50 pm

to answer mkg's question to me, all of them are mu daughter, at different ages in her 1st year...

10:50 pm

my*

10:50 pm

what's silly, herin?

10:51 pm

I dont diet per se, just try to eat healthily..... only, I dont like brown bread !!!!!

10:51 pm

me either (on the brown bread), aussie

10:51 pm

yay, I have a friend !!!!!

10:52 pm

woohoo, me too!!! lol

10:52 pm

nice, thick, white, toasted bread !!

10:53 pm

i even try to buy different kinds of supposedly healthier white bread, just don't like the brown stuff

10:53 pm

toasted is the best (although i do like lots of butter)

10:53 pm

me too, we get a thing called 50/50 bread, white, with all the goodness of wholemeal bread...

10:53 pm

nope, dont do butter....

10:54 pm

I do dry bread, or toast dipped in soup..

10:55 pm

here we have pepperidge farm, who make a wholegrain white and an oatmeal that are ok, but what i really like about white bread is its softness....the oatmeal variety comes close to being soft enough

10:55 pm

sounds good to me shdy.... I have tried oatmeal bread, bit too oaty for me.....

10:56 pm

I like raisin bread too....

10:56 pm

me too, actually, what i have in the box right now is pepperidge farm sandwich white

the basicly starve to get to right weight Shady

10:57 pm

i agree herin, but you can't teach an old dog new tricks (or not too many, anyway)

10:57 pm

I have a couple of excercise things I must start to use this year..... an airwalker, and a guthy renker ball....

10:59 pm

i find if i eat what i like and drink only light beer when i drink beer, i'll gain weight. If I do the same and take the pups out each day for a walk, I lose weight.

sigh

11:00 pm

I look at a donut sideways, and I gain an inch !!

11:01 pm

I'm not overweight, just undertall !!

I walk past the donut place behind the cooking area and it smells gross that and mac donalds

11:01 pm

only problem is that walking my dogs alone is very difficult. They are not well trained, 2 are nearly 80 pounds, my "little" dog is 40 puonds. If someone takes one dog, I can walk the other 2 easily. I've had 2 surgeries after walking all 3!

11:01 pm

oh goodness, puts it into persperctive.....

11:02 pm

sigh for the old dog, herin?

11:02 pm

well ladies, its 5:01am here, must get some shuteye..... night night dear.....

11:02 pm

night, aussie, rest well and sweet dreams

11:02 pm

*dears that should have read.....

No just sigh

My dear friend just donated 12 inches of her hair to locks of love.

Night Aussie

11:04 pm

that was very nice

11:04 pm

night shdy, night herin, sweet dreams when you away to your beds.....

11:04 pm

*poof*

Yes she has great hair. I would do it but im not that brave. You only need 9 inchs to make a wig

11:06 pm

hey herin, just checked your profile to see where you live, if that's you in the pics are you sure you're 30? you look about 14!!!!! How do you do that?

Muhahaha. Why thank you

11:08 pm

sure, no prob, starting to feel old....my friend's daughter called me "ma'am" tonight, eek!

I am indeed 30. I don't go out in the sun. I use a face wash toner and moisteriser every day. If i have to go out sun screen

11:08 pm

well keep it up, it's working!

11:10 pm

i guess if i would quit smoking some of the wrinkles would slow down?

11:11 pm

well, duh, the whole time we were in Mexico last week i sat in direct sunlight (I'm convinced I'm part plant and have chlorophyll)

Shady i have fair skin and moles thus i don't go out in the sun

11:14 pm

you're smarter than me, i have fair skin and moles, but i hate cold, love to sit in the sun to get warm like some kind of lizard

11:14 pm

i need a clue for the ti5 word

11:15 pm

looking for it saddy,.....

11:17 pm

it's a ti4 that means "lean", plus a 2 point letter

I love being near white at times

11:18 pm

got it thanks shdy... *dives back into grid*

11:19 pm

i don't like it, only because i have rosacea (i.e. red face with bumps) and that usually only happens to very pale people

11:20 pm

Aaaah, done!

Yah jilli

11:21 pm

oh, so glad to see you, Saddy!!! How did it go yesterday?

Oh that makes sense

11:22 pm

woohoo, jilli

11:23 pm

I think that's the quickiest grid ever for me

11:23 pm

doctor said to avoid: heat, humidity, direct sunlight, spicy food, alcohol, red wine, stress, embarassment, pretty much my life (i live in Louisiana, for Gosh sake!)

11:24 pm

hey everyone... i almost never ask for help, but i have only 5 to go... i have ma/4, mi/4 and mo/4; could i get a clue for the last m please?

11:32 pm

Tw like an IDIOT with an X ray

11:34 pm

11:39 pm

11:40 pm

Dr_G was in my time zone, so I thought it'd be midnight, my time, but it seems not

Hey

11:43 pm

hiya hil

11:46 pm

Happy New Year! -- is everyone turkeyed out?

11:46 pm

Takuma, flip is in 14 minutes

11:46 pm

Hi nan

11:47 pm

Hi Jill -- how were the Victoria celebrations?

11:48 pm

nan, quiet but nice -- old friends and family -- just five pof us old folks :)

11:48 pm

Quiet here too --- the house has seemed so empty since the kids went home!

11:49 pm

hey jilli

11:49 pm

hey cybernan

11:49 pm

happy new year

11:49 pm

Boeuf bourguinon, blancmange with raspberries, preceded by martinis, accompanied by red wine, followed by decaf and NO liqueurs but lots of conversation

11:49 pm

Hi Saddy

11:50 pm

Saddy -- I asked before but you had gone to the grid -- how did things go yesterday? Obviously you got home safely!

11:50 pm

aah just finished

11:50 pm

YAY cheeky!

11:51 pm

We started with oie de canard and wine, the piece de resistance was 2 pound lobsters, salad and more wine --- just a couple of truffles for dessert. :)

11:51 pm

that was day before yesterday.. yeah i got home safely.. totally ruined new years eve for us... stayed home the whole time... took a day off from work yesterday and just potteredaround the house

11:51 pm

Oh yum, nan! 2 lb lobsters!!!

11:52 pm

of course it was day before, saddy -- I was away yesterday. Dates get mixed up at this time of the year.

11:52 pm

yum is right -- figured that seeing as how it was just the two of us, we could splurge!

11:53 pm

Roasted a chicken today and tomorrow it's back to green veggies and fish!

11:53 pm

you're not exactly in lobster country, nan -- where did they come from? Flown in from NS?

11:54 pm

Either there or NB

11:54 pm

Our local Save-on keeps a tank of them

Saddy id rather you safe

11:55 pm

thats what my inlaws said... we spent yesterday watching home movies of my husband as a baby... my MIL's idea

11:55 pm

Our local Thrifty's used to, but not 2 pounders!

11:56 pm

Wasn't Thrifty's recently bought out by someone?

11:56 pm

Good idea, Saddy!

11:56 pm

Yeah, someone from NS, I think

11:56 pm

Heavens, you'd think they'd keep on with the lobster, then

11:57 pm

No Save-on here -- just thrifty's ad Ganges Village Market, a sort-of indie.

11:58 pm

Well, here we can get Dungeness Crab from the dock :)

11:58 pm

There are times when I wish we had a Granville Island here!

11:58 pm

That's a plus!

11:59 pm

I've never been to Granville Island :(

11:59 pm

counting down....

11:59 pm

fingers crossed for another bite sized grid!!!
