all help gratefully received, have been like a human sponge soaking up all clues

aa 5 -- ends in three consonants indicates frustration

good morning all - am finding brain quite well exercised doing these grids without lickety
hello, ursh
Hi Chrissie, Ursh & BabRab
hello, lyn
morning babblers
Hi Nono
hello, NoNa
hi lyn. I've copied book's list into word and am busy colour coding it with the words I have - sad hey
lol Chrissie - takes me back to when I used to print Lickety list out and handwrite the words onto it! the things you do
Yay - Australia's next Governor General (sort of the Queens representative) is a WOMAN!! long time coming
Hope she does a wonderful job

OK off to the kitchen ... 55 left for later .. bye e1
bye Ema

There is a list Book did in Babblers Anon Rows
bookwomen has posted a list an Babblers Anon
lyn, this colour coding is also satisfying, if a little slow
lol...and you could print out and frame it at the end! of course people will know for certain that you are totally addicted
lol, don't tempt me!!
hi?
Hi Rows
hi rows, did you find the list
on lickety?
Rows, Lickety is not available, possibly for a while...see our advice to you @4.27 & 4.28 under
oh okay
no, go to Babblers Anonymous (link below the grid)
i haven't been on here in a long time

goodnight lyn, sweet dreams
morning all, night lynxxx!
hi lil, quiet here today
hello everyone
hi boo
hey chrissie and boo!
its been quiet on log for the past week. Ithink many wont play without the clues
help
that's a shame, there's still BJ's list and all the babblers clues
first time boo
only new and have no sense of spelling
?
yeah
I'm not good at explaining - go to the Help button above and have a read
because lickety has spoilt us with BE Browsers, i think some cant be asked to keep chopping and changing between the 2 pages.
good morning everyone. and Pink ! how are you ? long time no see.
hi elder
hellooooo elder i am very well indeed, just plodding along, where have you been and how have you been? *hugs*
this looks difficult to day - but perhaps its me :)
im finding it difficult elder, wish i hadn't started!
hi pink and everyone else too!
it might be quiet because everyone is working extra hard to do the grid
hi nono!
have more or less ignored chat last few days to find words
Am ok Pink, back still not good - but at least I can be here for a while, still seeing consultants etc and MRI another to have done - will see what cons says later this month
me too nono
Pink, thanks for asking. Did you manage to sort out the problem with your course and the papers going in late .
and FIREWORKS!
woo woo wtg nono
well done Nono !!
thanks any clues needed before i go shower?
Nono , thanks for the offer, but just started - long road to the finish:)
ok then happy babbling everyone po**
well, elder i had sorted out my fees but, they came through too late, so, i have differed until September. Recently i have had a change of heart regarding careers, i now want to get into the Police Force and work my way up to CID. So perhaps Uni not working out is a blessing in disguise!
bye nono, brb
Pnk, sometimes life takes steers us to another path. Police ! good choice for change of career. even in the Police they need Psychologists so you may have the opportunity to do both in the force. What ever you decided, I am sure with your determination you will succeed. How is your little one - bless:)
apologies for the typing / grammar errors .

How many words please?
150
ty
yw
phantom: kilfud-yoking
GM all - thankfully still a reasonable size!
a rather ho hum grid to be sure
No mirin? That's as bad as when it wouldn't accept korma the other day.
am surprised about the mirin!
Oh well. Yesterday it rejected meme as well. Sigh.
ENABLE is the perfect arbiter for babble as Dr God intended. An arbitrary martinet that forces flexibility in a consistently unfair manner.
oooh BabRab - sounds like you're annoyed - LOL
Not at all .... the caterwauling amuses me
Hi. Hpe you don't mind me joining in. I was livid when it wouldn't accept meme and korma.
hi hydra!
Hi kje. No stats today, either. I'm screwed!
just 150 - don't give up yet!
Only got 42 words so far. Been watching the London Marathon on TV and eating toast while looking at all those lean, superfit people.
what about outcoming? that didn't work either
Hi kids--I wanted to sleep in for the first time in over a week, but I woke up early. Waaah.
43 here - and toast sounds good - BRB
Hi Scrabbler. Mornin'!
How was your evening, kje?
That is everyday for me scrab!!!
me too, scrabbs... it's only 5:17 here
somewhere in training I lost the ability to sleep in!
training for what, kje/
medical training - being at the hospital at 5
I am not a morning person at all.
phantom profanity
Oh wow. Good for you. That's such a hard thing to do. Friend of mine is just qualifying this year.
I'm awake - didn't say I was friendly! - I'm not really a morning person either - I'm just awake
I eagerly look forward to those days/nights when I can stay up to 1 AM and then sleep in til 9 and not rush off in the morning.
Do you know that I haven't even looked at the grid yet? Here I go!
Ah yes, but how long will you have to wait til those days come, Scrab?
Some weekends and when on vacation, hydra.
good phantom Lady - will likely need that phantom by the end of this puzzle
lol kje
BRB - need toast
I was looking forward to spending today outside, sitting under the canopy of trees and watching birds fly to and from the birdfeeders, but it is 36 degrees F and snowing, not a spring day.
Sorry I put the idea in your head, kje. What you having on it? I had home-made marmalade on mine. I love Marmite, too.
Guten Morgen, in BabAnon Bookwoman supposedly wrote out a clue list, but it wont print up, says it cannot render this page. Waht is going on?
Brrrrr, Scrab.
Guten Morgen, Freundin Inge. Ich bin kalt.
I had the same problem, inge. Guten Morgen!
No BJ's list yet?
let's hope BJ comes through.
Hurshy has also been posting her own list on Bab-Anon.
Yes. Fingers crossed.
dutti
I meant ditto
It's hard to type with crossed fingers.
I like dutti!
Dutti Fan Tutti
You silly dutti, Inge!
paro
sorry, no good word
54 words. They're not exactly coming easily.
Hi all. The stats had been posted on BabAnonby Bookwomen but I've had to delete them due to a 'technical' problem. Panic ye not, I have re-posted them.
Not a word, so no need to go to the PB.
Hi and thanks, Jacula!
Hi Jac! Many thanks. *all rush BabAnon and crash server*
I'll let you know the total points for the grid when I've finished it myself.
The aa 5.16 sets the tone for the gri
2001 total points
Thanks, BabRab. I'll add that.
You're quite right, Rab!
how can that be an accepted word when so many real ones aren't?
Hi BR...I am looking for the AA5 now.
Good afternoon all........
It's done. Now I can get back to my final 36 words, of which 'aa' is one...
out of bread - no toast - settling for pound cake instead
Hi caitlyn
Hi caitlyn
Final 36? I have a final 91!!!
Poor thing, kje.
131 to go for me--I am NOT seeing much yet.
You are jetting along, hydra
Special toast deliver whizzing thru the ether to kje
Ah, got the 'aa' now. I'd tried that exclamation with a sigle 'a' earlier.
How are you doing, BabRab?
95 here - and thanks for the aa clue - wouldn't have looked there
*or even a siNgle 'e'.
and allour pirates should be happy with that one - LOL
I wouldn't found it, either, without help.
How long did the marathon take you this morning hydra andJac
How long did the marathon take you this morning hydra andJac
hydra and jac ran a marathon!!!!!
Oh Ihave hiccups LOL
cait - I don't know if Hydra's run the marathon (if you mean London) but I haven't.
As long as a bowl of fruit and yoghurt, a piece of toast and two mugs of tea, caitlyn! In my dreams kje.
LOL!
I can't even run to the corner shop!
Ditto, hydra.:D
an 8 == not for the Kerner Commission events reported 130 separate ones in the summer of 1967 alone
wow - I was about to be sooooo impressed - glad to know you're just mortal like the rest of us
What am I grinning about? It's terrible really, isn't it?:(
Yes, it is, Jac. I have a gym sub and last went 10 days ago! Did about 8 k on various machines and ached for days!
Im exhausted watching them on the tv
Hydra - the gardening season is beginning, weather permitting. That'll keep me fit.
pr 8 -- grammar and spelling authority does this to MSS
anhmmm babrab - thinking - thought kerner was about riots or something
OK, I have the list up on another window, TY, Jacula.
oops - saw it - thanks
y/w, Scrabbs. Sorry I had to remove Bookwomen's but I did say why in Babanon.
That's true, Jac. However this garden belongs to my BF and I'm not allowed to do anything in it, for various reasons best known to him. Tho I sneakily mow the lawn and deadhead the roses sometimes.
It's OK, Jacula, I just started the grid 30 min ago and hadn't looked yet.
You can come and help me, Hydra. Lots of digging to be done and bark to put down this year. It does my back in these days.
hello everyone!
I'm hoping P will make me some raised beds where the borders are now mostly waterlogged.
Bark is great. It really smothers the weeds, doesn't it? And slugs hate it too.
Hi, pink.
Finally, with an assist from the dictionary, I figured out aa5. Grrrrrrrrowl.
Hi Pink
Hi pink
7s: fa;in;kn;ro;ro;ro
I love using pine bark mulch every spring when I get my garden areas fixed up.
funny scrab - seriously without all the aa5 that goes on in here, I saw it right away - LOL
TY, BR
do you keep a dog on call for the bark?
thanks to our pirates!
LOL BabRab
I am so brain dead, kje, with working too much and not sleeping enough over the past week.
hi jac, scrabbler, kje, babbrabb, and caitlyn. Is elder still here?
I did used to use cocoa shells, which smell fantastic when the sun's on them. However, I read that cats/dogs can eat them and poison themselves.
hiya pink!
LOL, Babrab re the dog/bark.
And I just got BR's joke, haha. My brain waves are in slow-motion.
I haven't heard of that before Jac
My cousin uses the cocoa shells for a covering--smells like chocolate all summer.
oooh - gonna have to use a different word to disappear from babble land today! we're all stuck here now!
hi all
Caitlyn: http://tinyurl.com/6s76sl
but I think they should allow a gerund on that!
hi ardilla
Hi ardilla how are you today?
hey ardilla
Hi Ardilla, my little squirrel friend. How are you and your ankle doing?
Thanks Jac
i'm okay still getting around slowly
saw some cherry blossoms yesterday
hey - no one has noticed my icon : (
how is bunny callie today?
look and see who it is!
kje - I have. It's jilli's grandson.
I did, kje--I wondered if that was the studmuffin from last night's date, then I looked at your profile.
thanks jac : )
wow, jillibus's grandson!
Bunny Callie is doing well--stretched out under a dining room chair right now.
Nice!!
no - my dfate last night was not this studly!!!
it's a good poem - studly and talented
Yes, it's excellent, kje. I've just been reading it. Has he been published?
Good Lord, it's nearly 1pm! I'm not even dressed yet. Time I went for a shower. BBL for final 33.
Jacula, my sister with bunnies said good-bye to her beloved Chloe on Thursday night. Chloe was a Holland Lop and sick recently, rallied back, then deteriorated. They buried her next to Bunny Chestnut in the back yard. They have 4 remaining bunnies.
Sorry to hear that, Scrabbs.xx
Bye Jac. Will read your blog later!
yes, I got it out of a book called Dingers
6s: ai;co;co;ea;fa;fa;fi;hi;mo;mo;ni;oa;pr ;ti;tr;wr
Haven't seen Jillibus here for a while. Is she OK?
Haven't added anything since the balloon episode, Hydra. Will do later.
Taking my smelly self off to shower now. Byeee. xx
saw her yesterday, hydra
she has popped in almost daily
Hope you've lost some weight since that dinner, Jac! Good, Lady. I'm glad. I suppose I haven't been on the grid at the same time.
Bye Jac
bye jac
it's not even 5 a.m. for her right now, so I suppose you are right, hydra.
LOL :)
I'm cooking lunch at the same time as babbling, not easy
Don't burn it -or yourself, caitlyn!
thanks BabRab!!! I hadn';t found some of those!

hello Babblers
Hi lore
hello lore, and little..hurry back hydra!
hya
hello Scrabbler sorry to hear about Chloe hugs for your sister
hi lore
hello pink caitlyn kje
morning/afternoon, all. I am SO happy....we got all of our paper files organized yesterday.
lots of popping in and out here - hard to keep up
I read it days ago, pink .... been a boss or bossy for a lot of years ... saw the humor
hi pink and lore
hi littlebit
morning angel
((Loredana))--yes, Leslie said good-bye to her dear little Chloe.
we took four drawers worth of chaotic mess and turned them into three drawers of neatly organized household records. amazing.
Scrabbler was Chloe a dwarf and how old was she?
welldone angel
gg now can you come do my mess!
Well done Angel, thats something I need to do soon
Chloe was a Holland Lop, adopted from a rabbit rescue home at age 2+ yrs, and Leslie + Alan have had her for 6 1/2 yrs.
what was the name of your system, again, angel?
Yikes, my pager is going off....BRB
it's Maria Gracia's "my oh-so-organized filing system", kje. You can find it online via Google. it also comes with a bonus tickler file system.
I forgot that I am on-call until the office opens at 9:30.
Is that from Getorganized.com?
OK - you've (almost) inspired me... or tax season has - one or the other - LOL
hate pagers scrabb
Lunch is nearly ready, I had better go and sort it out, see you later, take care all ,bye
oh dear scrabbler have you been called up for duty? How is Callie Sebastian Gadalf and Tucker all well i hope and yourself as well
Wow. This one is slow. Can anyone tell me how many words there are today?
I put 9 years worth of date-ordered tax files into one neat folder.
150
150 words today
Ugh, the answering service has 2 calls for me--OK, I need to call these moms now.
Thanks, littlebit.
yw pet
and angelsong
My bunnies are doing well--I was able to grab Tucker and smooch him up yesterday. He is a big 10 lb boy.
wow, you all disappeared for almost 2 minutes - damn server
good for you Scrabbler hes only playing hard to get he would of loved it i always laugh when you put them back down they seem to do a bit of a shrug and hop off!!
are you sure its your server and not that we were hiding ? Peek a boo
Maria Gracia's site is http: // getorganizednow.com
now, that would just be cruel fran : )
hugs kje and then runs and hides again
thanks angel
well, i'm off to get dressed and start my day. bbl
enjoy your day littlebit see you again
I'm sorry kje i know annoying servers can be! sheesh this it the year 2008.. not 1988 you think that they would get their acts together by now!
bye littlebit
seriously!!! I have DSL via Time Warner and they go down a couple times/week
trying to get out of that contract!
Good morning all!
wow.. AOL use to be like that. they would automatically bill and never stop billing
hi nonnie
11 K words?
morning nonnie
ouch
hi nonnie
lol 11 ! and i've only found one
hiya fran, loredana and kje...another smallish grid, I see.
doesn't like the japanese beer : )
want them all to be small until lickety comes back!!!
my husband said he did not mind helping me set up the filing system, but was concerned it would not be used. I told him, you are less likely to use this system than I am, since I am accustomed to organizing things on a daily basis..
I guess I still have sleep in my eyes. I was trying to think what the japanese BEAR was.
lol
oh - just looked back - was afraid I had misspelled it !!!
that ght is so unfortunately placed
kje. I really like the baseball poem in your profile. Jillis son is talented!
Angel, I just got my files (back) together about 4 or five months ago. It was hard work but worth it!
thanks nonnie - be sure and tell her you thought so - she is rightfully proud : )
I will and she should be :o)
Ok, my phone calls to anxious moms are done. One kid has croup, the other has viral mouth sores.
hiya scrabbs
kje, what a wonderful tribute to Jllibus's grandson!
welcome back scrabbler
hi nonnie!
it is so worth it! and I really appreciated my husband's help. he never said a cross word, the entire time.
hiya pink!
oops, grandson...I think I said "son"
thanks une - wondering if she is the grandmother in the Laz-e-Boy? - LOL
Isn't it nice when we can work with our hubbies without the fur flying? :o) It is a nasty chore but someone has to do it.
my husband is a special man. he really, truly is.
I was wondering the same, kje.
Far out! - too bad it isn't one word
aww thats nice that you have a nice husband.
Mine is driving me nuts lately. i think its a mid life crisis
its so unsettling, I'm not use to him behaving this way. he's always been so nice
Mine too, Angel. I have given words of thanks and praise for him many times. But every once in a while he can find that one nerve and then he plucks it!
heard a author talking about using dog training techniques are her husband on NPR yesterday - she was hilarious! - book is called "what I learned from Shamu"
LOL maybe I should get that book!
oops - it was what shamu taught me
lol sounds interesting :o)
Angel, you convinced me to order the Get Organized system from Maria Gracia. Although I get her newsletter and have my files, I need a detailed system, so I ordered it!
perhaps it is male menopause, fran...don't their hormones get all out of whack too?
I heard that author too, kje. The husband figured out after a while that she was training him as one would a dog.
i guess.
any clues for a in top left corner?
I think with him he reached 50 and freaked
it started the year before he turned 50. its been a horrible 2 years
ag5 ==sound slike the Spanish wine, san****
phantom - amino
thanks scrabb
he will not talk to me bout it. its so strange. were were sooooooooooo close for 28 years, we're married 20 years.
I think it is more mental/emotional due to existential stuff, just like females experience, but we deal with menopause and the physiologic issues too.
Too bad, Frantique. Are you in counseling together?
aw 5 --- bush though the military would shock and *** .... aw --add gerund ending
aw + the 3 letter end
i've started menopause and I cant even talk to him about it. He doesnt want to know! and now he's finding young girls 'INTERESTING'
dumb dumb dumb - thanks babrab
he will not go to counceling. I think I'm going to start going myself.
I think that is a good place to start, fran. I hope it helps. Perhaps in time he'll agree to go also.
some one i know just found out her husband is having an affair with a younger woman. Shes been going to groups and reading up on the subject
she said that Men are actually cowards and that they will try to make it the wifes fault. and will also try to make her life so miserable that she will be the one to leave.
that's a pretty sweeping generalization lol
phantom - coupe
it just pisses me off that I"M the ONE that needs the therphy !!! I've always been such a warm, friendly happy person ! hes turning me into a shrew
what is therphy????
lol spelt it wrong
hi there bonkler and eva
angel. gr4 = chesire cat face
My friend's friend is going through that--50 yr old husband has been text-messaging a younger woman at work, wife saw texts, talked with him, and his repsonse was, "I am going to do what makes me happy."
maybe its better than the real thing
morning all
see! ! crazy right scrabbler !
hiya bonk!
hi bonk
hi
bonk
bonk
just like saying that
bonk
morning bonkler and nut!
i am multi-bonk
bunnies are much more fun!!!!!! Fran trade him in for a couple!!!
Frantique--counseling will help you with your emotions and to know what to say and how to behave with him--puts you in more control.
bonk a bonk bonk
fran: I asked my husband if he would ever consider having an affair. He looked at me for the longest time, and said, "why in the world would I ever do that? It would hurt our marriage."
The thing that shocks me is my husband has always been a very intelligent open minded, reasonable person and now thats out the window!
lol loredana!
i recommend cats over men, at least they don't pretend to like you if they don't
true thanks scrabbler :-) thats good advice
and you believed him Angel??
true eva
aaah - but there are just some thinngs a cat can't do : )
bonk
Yeah I really dont think mine would cheat.. his father did that to his mother when he was a kid and he's always been serious about the cheating factor
meow
that's where Lover's lane comes in
i don't believe my husband capable of an affair, for that you have to leave the house or be computer literate
plus I'm allergic to cats
absolutely, Loredana. He knows I will not tolerate that. it would be the END.
LOL evan
lol Esprit
lol nut!
shakes herself out .. and goes back to being her happy self LOL
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
yipeeee
you will all hate me but must let you know ..... all men will cheat if they think they can get away with it!!!
Hahaha everybody!
wel done frantique!!!!
UNLESS.... they are uncapable of it
co 4/8 - I was being silly and entered it and it's a freakin word that means being silly!
loredana that just plain isn't true
Not all, because I know many honorable men with integrity and great character.
Its hard to get away with anything these days! He went sailing to the virgin islands last month and I saw him on web cams !!!! LOL
that's just the point, loredana. my husband would not be able to hide it. I would know, immediately. He cannot lie convincingly.
i could never cheat.. it would be written all over my face !!! I cant lie to save my life!
angel thats correct we know but lets be honest they are all little boys at heart and a new toy is exciting
can someone clue the in7 please
The new toy may be exciting but not all will choose to play with it!
i certainly wouldn't cheat...just the idea of it scares me straight
I am getting used to the almost daily bashing ... but nonetheless wonder why women get married .... the number of negative comments is 1000 to one ... rent a friend and don't get married
Pink you been so quiet there have you heard from Herin?
BR well said i agree with you
yeah.. for all them men who throw out their old rag dolls for a new barbie.. I just can't wait for them to realize that barbie is plastic and fake and grows old too! LOL
All the men I've dated - bar one - have been lovely to me :-)
well babrab, snot like we women don't get the comments...we could be the best wife in the world, but put a man around his buddies and he'll make up something to complain about just to fit in.
so? why get married? you just prove my point
perhaps loredana is describing the self fulfilling prophecy. if you believe that all of us will cheat, you will treat us like cheaters. eventually the one fortunate enough to share your space will feel that he might as well cheat since that is how he is regarded. no?
I need in 7 too - at least now I know it's a 7 - which does help some : )
true .. bad friends is not good !
Afternoon everyone :-)
I told my husband when we began our relationship that if he wants me, fine. If not, fine. But I don't play second fiddle to anyone.
he hooked up with some trashy men when he took up sailing two years ago
hello katie and all
they are alocholics and cheat on their wifes and girlfriends all the time
lore there was a storm last week some time, and the power is down in her area, i personally haven't heard from her. Im watching the Steve Wilkos Show, thats why im so quiet
hi katie
hi katie
in7=in + wheat or barley
afternoon everyone :-)
I would like to say again that I know many fine gentlemen with integrity and honorable character. Men + women are more alike than different.
hi katie
bonkler it works both ways
I agree Scrabs
fish me - thanks sam!!!
oops computer on a lag!
Wow pink was the storm that bad? i 'm surprised i didnt hear about it from my mother in law she lives in england
Hi Katie
I agree scrabbs
and cute dog pic sam - we had a basset when we were kids - named toughie
kje: smackerel!
I heard there was snow ???
true scrabs....those barbie girls aren't exactly respectable themselves!
was there a lot?
thanks for your positive comments Scrabbler
the other part of the equation that isn't being stated here, for every guy that cheats there needs to be a woman who is also either cheating or willing to accommodate the cheating for her own selfish ends.
It is snowing here--everything is white outside.
I had one named Julie, half boxer, actually, but she talked. amazing dog.
too true bonk!
Exactly, bonk!
to*
Yes, Bonkler, I know many women that have had or are having affairs.
there are soooooooooo many women out there that go after married men. and lots of married people who prefer married people to cheat with!
Yahoo for Sam! Hi there!
no the storm wasn't in England it was in Aussie, where Herin lives. Lynxxx was telling that certain areas are without power, and herin also said on her facebook page that the power was down
hey - toughie talked - sorta... also tripped over his ears all the time - lOL
i must be niave...i don't think i know any cheaters...not ones that i claim friendship with anyway
wasnt there a storm last week in england too. I think i heard that heathrow was snowed in last week
I think that most people have an existential "mid-life" crisis---oh, God, my life is more than half over, what do I want to do with the rest of my life, etc.
wow winter is hitting hard and early in austrail
yes, Heatroww was snowed in
howdy Scrabbler. I've been off chat since lickety developed babble expert. now i'm back because he's gone.
yup.. like my hubby.. all of a sudden started to take trips alone and took up sailing
yes there was snow last week and winds, but it wasn't as bad as the aussie one
see - forced bonding - that's why lickety is gone - no one believes me!
Julie's ears were too short to trip over, but if you tucked one into her mouth, she would carry it like it was breakable, then carefully put it down.
thanks for in7 clue
its beautiful here in NY .. but i can see summers gonna be hot, if its 72 and its spring
that's hilarious Sam - I can see it!
I have to get going, have a great day all and hope to see you later.
fran, it was near 80 here a few days ago and now it's in the 30s--spring's here kinda sorta!
bye nonnie!!!
bye nonnie see you next time take care
bye nonnie
freaky weather
I was in Spain last weekend and it was really hot, again not normal weather for the time of year

Great definition, Sam

ohhhhh French toast sounds good scrabbler
french toast with bananas and pecans on top
and maple syrup
OK, with 99 to go, I shall go into the kitchen and make French toast!

I don't like pecans. I have almonds--my favorite nut, besides Evanonut, of course.
my brother started this for me this morning and it's thrown me right off, I have no idea what words have all ready been entered without looking at the input list!
how long to the wedding katie?

Just under three weeks now annie :-)
He only got 3 K words and I'm sure I put one of those in!
how exciting, bet you can't wait
I'm only at 4 K's - aaaaggghhh
one of the things I found in the filing cabinet yesterday was a photograph of my baby brother's ONLY Christmas. He was six months old,and died only a few weeks after that Christmas. I had no idea that picture was in the cabinet.
It still doesn't fee real at the moment. We had our last party before the wedding last night so I was a bit bleary eyed at Church this morning
oh Angel - that makes the whole organization thing worth it!!!
Wow Angel, how wonderful that you found the photo
It made me cry, finding that photo.
yay C's done - hate C's
Katie - enjoy the build-up, lucky you
What a lovely thing to find, lovely and sad at the same time
Thanks annie, we got the honeymoon tickets on Friday so we were dancing round the house :-)

I've got an account but to be honest it is all too much for me. I will put more effort into it after the wedding
I got a myspace to see some of Nutty's artwork. It wouldn't let me access it without an accout. I don't use it though.

oops - missed a bit of chat - got lost in grid
ty
nicely done, there, kje, with the icon. Now, about your date last night?
aw5/22
date was OK Pam - not a keeper though... it was fun but he has a lot of baggage
he's really cute too!
if anyone missed it, clues are in Ata's profile
if it can't fit in the carry-on, it's not worth it!
Glad it was fun, though
he's been divorced just over a year and don't think it was his wish - still not over wife I suspect
yes - jilli's granson is cute - love that hair!
oh so your date wasn't The One, kje???
mi5/14 "House of Mi***"
that's a rough one, kje...
Une, got them thanks.
nope - still looking - LOL
remember, i told you kje, i went on 35 first dates before i met my BF :)
wanted to say - "you're not ready yet" but clearly can't do that - you could feel his loneliness sometimes - so sad
bbs
35!!! aaaagghhh
I'm assuming that is matchups - not your lifetime number - LOL
that was over the space of a year... almost every weekend!!!!
OK monkey - being patient....
it will happen,kje!!!!
i have internet date horror stories, if you ever want to share... LOL
monkey (snicker) - there is a word in here that reminded me of you...
would that be fa4 ???? perchance?
Believe me - I just started this and could already write a book!!!
what is it with guys posing without shirts?
or leaning on their sports cars ?
do they really believe that is what turns us on - LOL
LOL! oh i'm sure there are worse pics
that's it monkey!!!
silently thank them for making it obvious you DONT want to date them
so true monkey - it helps the weeding out process - LOL
I took a hi4/9 to help me find a hi4/5 for the hi6/27 process since I had no clue and we had an opening at work. Help please with the other one?

OK! gotcha :)

Scrabbler maybe Chloe went with Grace???
Good Day, All. Any clues for the KA5/18? Please and thank you...
What is the average lifespan of a domestic bunny, Scrabbler?
ka + the ***ster crows at dawn
Yes, I was thinking that, Loredana, as grace died Apr 8 and Chloe on Apr 10.
Perfect. Thanks, Aloyisius.
yw
thanks aloy!
Aloy someone told me dwarfs were four years we have had normal size rabbits that went to 13yrs but not sure
(-: glad you found it, kje
Aloy--it is so variable, as so many rabbit owners do not provide optimal nutrition and therefore the rabbits develop GI problems that can kill quickly.
Callie is my oldest ever, at 7 yr 8 mo now. My sister, Leslie, has Snowball, age 9 now!
can anyone help with the an8 ... i know it begins with the an4
TY, Aloy, for ka5
an4 + ri4
oh.. but interesting that bunnies can be pets as long as dogs or cats.. didn't know that
an4 + ri4 (what police use tear gas for)
an 8 - gear cops use when protesters get out of control
against revolting in a violent manner
TY scrabs, kje, aloy, dorens :)
I had rabbits that lived 4 years or so--but they were rescues, and had time before that...
We discovered that the pellets were developed for shorter, lab lifespans, and fed veggies after that, the guide is with the housebunny group...
hi all - anybody want to clue the i words?
rabbit.org is full of vital info. hay/grasses should be the primary food, with minimal pellets. I use Oxbow hay Company products.
any clues for anything before I go?
i have in + gr5 hursh

hi all - are the lickety clues not working today?
Not for the next month, Denny--Lickety is away! AAAHHHHH, ALAS, we are floundering.
you can access them in Atalante's profile
We did a ton of research when one of our bunnies got sick (me and my ex-) and the houserabbit society had a TON of info,,,
oh no - how will i cope?LOL
Denny, they're all available in Ata's profile
I would like bunnies again someday, maybe, but am still getting over China's death (my dog)

I was in the kitchen, filling my pillboxes for the week.
my husband and i have decided to reconcile, and he's going to Yale for grad school, so we're moving to new haven

hi, hursh, new haven is a great place -
Yes, Periwinkle, so we really are a big Babble Team now.
thanks Une
I can see not being excited until you feel more at ease, and have a job, hursh
yes, without a job offer, the back of my head is still able to foresee financial disaster
Have you called/e-mailed any temp agencies, hursh?
no... i don't think i'll need to, cause i can talk to yale HR, there are lots of jobs there
thanks for all the clues everyone - with 23 to go, will see you all later
later, kje :-)
Hursh, you WILL find a job, and, if you don't like it you WILL find another...talk back to that worry voice.
Oh, that's good, hursh
Bye kje
i had signed up with a temp agency before but by the time they found anything i had already been working at my job for at least a month, lol
I just know that Natasha has recently relocated to New Haven and she is having trouble finding a permanent job, just got a temp job
Maybe it is easier for spouses to inf something at Yale itself..
to *find something

She was customer service supe in Wisconsin--and is now temping at an insurance agency..

Premonition wasn't in there, so I was curious...:)

thanks bubba
found a new system that is working for me (without Lickety's list) - pasted the clues (from Babblers Anonymous) to a document (in Word), then as i find words I highlight them in color, then when a letter tile is grey on the grid, I just delete it from my list - is this too crazy or anal or what? it is helping me
just got new bed rails on daniel's bed, his headboard (which was part of his crib) attached, and the bed put back on. it's one of the oooold ones that is a wood frame and i swear has bricks in the springs, it's so heavy!
don't want to get in front of a f***** squad, Ishult... that should give you two words
morning herbee
JBV, that's basically what I have to do...delete as I have conquered. Just looking at it doesn't help me!
and I must be off.. see you next grid, Babblers. Have a great Sunday! byee
and i might add, did it by myself, as doug took daniel on an outing to keep him out of my hair
bye
bye Aloy
paint prep is next, once i catch my breath!
good work, feather
so nutty, i never saw if you answered, what do the pirates look like? have a pic?
my answer was that they are still in their packages
any thoughts on the tr6? *S*
ahhhh, gotcha
ok 75 down, 75 to go, tome for a break
ok, limited time, back to work!
we are the piiiirates... who don't do anything... we just stay at home and lie around... and if you ask us... to do anything... we just tell you... we don't do anything!
tr6=makes weiry
JBV, i will try that system as one I tried last night with copying + pasting and printing was too difficult to work with.
scrabbler, it's very satisfying, too, as you solve and delete, the list gets shorter and shorter!
lower i ????
Finally finished!!
(i think lshult means, ti6 = something that makes you weary)
tr6 three+camp bedding
Ishult, isn't that the ti6 you just clued

Hi Stid and Stidfamily!!
Hello stidmama.
Ah, the sun is now shining brightly!!
it sure is! gorgeous weather herew this weekend, but clouds rolling in soon.
Hi again...clue please for co4/8...the one between the two co6's please?
You made the sun come out, Stid, TY! The sunshine is motivating me to go out for a walk.
enjoy, cousin! I shall hit the garden in a little bit if I can
hey flask
co4/8 - double your vowel and finish with a flourishing letter.
flask: hairdo
Oh well here is my wonderful new.....my son and his girlfriend Louise became engaged to be married last night!
oh, sorry, that wasn't between others. *sigh*
HOORAY!
yippee!!! *starts baking petits 4s for rehearsal party*
You must be pleased, Flask, you've been hinting about wanting to get him married for a while.
lol....thankyou!
am delighted Haz.....will post a pic of them soon....
Congratulations to the happy couple (and mother-in-law to be)
Thankyou very much!
now tell me....whats a flourishing letter????
Well, his fiancee has a nice name, (my first daughter is Louise)
a tall, pretty letter with a Flourish at the top...
Maybe a better clue would be to say that the hairdo and this word differ only in one vowel.
yes......and she will be Louise MacLean.....I think it has a nice ring to it!
(that capital letter is a h4)
oh, it does -- sounds like a romance novelist's name...
It sounds good, Flask. I'm really pleased for you.
lol.....yes stid....I was just wondering there....thanks!
got it!!
so, why, if one can be naked, one cannot "nake?"
Great! I'm surprised you can concentrate at all today.
have any of you noticed the nice atmosphere there is in here, since there is no list....and everyone is chipping in with help?
Och I know......my mind keeps drifting away with wedding ideas!!!...lol
I've not been here for long, Flask and it is quite peaceful. Early on can be a bit frenetic for me with all the word finding and declarations.
Have they set a date yet?
och? as in scottish? LOL next thing you'll say aye, and "wee sleekit" and such!
oh I find that so confusing....just ignore it and let it go by!
no date as we speak....but I shall keep you posted!
Stid - I say Och all the time as well, and aye for yes. And wee for little. It stretches the vocabulary.
You know us, Flask, we love to organise from af4/7.
certainly do!
wow. you are the first people I ever knew who used that word... though I suppose my great-great (great-great) grandparents might have...
I am trying to find the I word from teh fourth row down...
We use the Scots words without really thinking about it. They can be very descriptive!
in 7 clue please
ir5, Stid.
thanks Haz. *thinking*
in7 - in plus a food type
afternoon all,
in7: in + type of plant like wheat or rice or (describes family of plants)
hello crp!
Good afternoon crp.
Food type such as meat, fruit, veggie,etc?
you sound soooo granola there stid...lol
hey merk! how's you these days?
The sort of food you would find in cereals. Also used to describe the pattern in wood.
may I have the points on the ir5?
ty, got it now, duh ... and I live in the wheat belt, more or less. I am fine Stid, thanks for asking.
thanks ruru! *doffs bandana and bows*
ir5/14 - anger abounds
thanks haz
oh man, that is a silly word... LOL
You're welcome.
OK - will try with fresh eyes again
wow. this is SO HARD! LOL
yes stid - it is - *staring aimlessly into grid*
We've been spoiled, haven't we? But, stiffen that upper lip, gird the loins, and remember 'We are babblers'
I stopped girding my loins a long time ago
Oh, I don't think it's THAT hard, I got all the sevens on my own
so annoying those girds
*babbling aimlessly*
hello movieman!
hiya stid
Good for you movieman. And cheering after Man U's win? (ducking for cover at this point)
Yep, haz, just Man U. and Chelsea left in the title race now
I need help on the A, fourth row down, closest to the right, plase
or please...
Poor Arsene.
whee! found an 8!
said a word said a word
Serves him right for not having enough English players
I said a word????
no Haz did
oh! okay *rushes off to look at Haz's comments*
right before Arsene
Just shows you. Don't show any sympathy for Arsene.
Arsene only has Theo Walcott, and he hardly ever plays him from the start
hm.... didn't find one in Haz's chat, but did see one in movieman's. :-D
is there really 150 words exactly today?
yep, cheeky
yes cheeky, there really are...
What did I say, Stid?
I am thinking that caroom should also be allowed to be spelled with a K
and I need three more to hit 100. then I shall leave and eat some breakfast
ok thanks. i am working without any list still and only at 93.
you "used your mind" movieman, t5
2 words off that a...
are both 8s from the P?
aa 5/16 - pirate growl
no stid
I see, Stid.....so, what's in the P.B. today?
an 8
yay! greyed the H!
thanks kje!
pr 8
for the aa and the next 8 *dives deep in grid*
af 5/16 - quoting sherlock... the game is af***
today in the penalty box I have placed a sort of "russian teacake" make with pecans, fancy chocolates with orange centers, and a fresh hot pot of tea.
pr8 rereading
Well, stid, I can't get in there fast enough......*ZOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!! *
oooh stid - poor stid....poor poor poor stid
ooh! got the 8 and a 4 at the same time!!!
kje -- you wanted in the PB so much you had to repeat 4 times???
yes! - thank you!
rofl
sounds yummy
okay, I really did promise myself to NOT babble all day long. I shall return later. thanks for all your help! *hugs everyone in reach* see you-all later! *p4*
Later, stid!!!!!
bye stid
Bye stid.

Good afternoon Haz and hello babble

LOL

7 to go - have only managed 2 in the last half hour - listlessness sucks sometimes...but am determined
it's not the easiest of grids today either
13 left here
no - am dreading when we hit one of those huge ones without a list -
*looks for Haz in the babble group*
go movie!
I'm over here!
LOL are you still hunting or laurel resting?
Oh, laurel resting.
Well done you!
I think we're going to find that not everyone is going to finish every grid as a matter of course. But that's okay.
congrats haz!
i have the an8 clue for the other 8 pls?
Hi, again, all!
I agree that it's not the nicest of grids, though.
pr8 - the activity of an editor
mmmm more a case of setting personal targets. Hello pam :)
Hi, fmitch!
hi pam, hi ardilla
Hello pam.
hi, kje
Oh hello ardilla, sorry didn't see you slaving away over the words there.
Haven't looked at the grid yet, want to later, but am tempted, LOL, because I need to go out for errands, so won't get all caught up...
hi, ardilla
HAve a dip in pam and then you can mull it over when doing errands
would suggest mulling strategy
LOL, fmitch
I will say, that I always play listless, and don't usually finish, has me much less anxious than y'all, LOLOL
Haz, it must be only a couple of weeks before you are off to foreign parts?
Yes - 5 May when we set off, so it's getting closer.
where to Haz?
thank you for the 8
We're going to Krakow in Poland for five days.
sorry been lurking/sleeping on & off for a few hours
That should be great, Haz
having a time with the t's - have 3 th's, 2 ti's, 3 to's, 5 tr's - clue to what I'm missing?
It promises to be very interesting. I've never been to Poland before but Krakow is becoming better known.
I'm thinking about the food mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
You need another couple of tr words
thanks haz - narrowing it down....
I haven't given the food any thought!
and here it was my FIRST thought :-)
I only have 4 tr's there are 7?
ah - esprit must be a fellow foodie - always the first thought - ha
I'll be sure to let you know what it was like.
There are 7 tr words, only one tr6.
all my grandparents were from Poland
and pics too of course!
Ah, that explains the interest.
I'll have to bring the camera, you're right.
thanks haz - do not have a tr 6
Sing out if you want a clue.
OK - not yet - thanks
No problem.
Sing, sing? Looks around for Vi to burst out of hiding and burst into song!
That was risky of me, wasn't it?
Oh of course she has the open studio weekend so will be busy with that
Have you seen any of the marathon today?
You don't think she'll sing to customers?
eeek not if she wants to sell her wares
I only saw some highlights on the news. It was raining? It's been lovely here today.
It was perfect weather for the 1st hour but then its been all over the palce all day (rolling thunder as I type)
She doesn't realise that she can't sing. That's the pity of it.
i would love to see a proper interview with the Masai warriors wh only flew in a couple of days ago
I have mi 4/5, 4/5, 5/14, mo 5/12, 6/27, 4/5, 4/5, 5/12 what am I missing
THey looked great, didn't they?
mo6/21
hi Babblers!
I saw the maasai warriors on morning TV a few days ago. I wanted to sponsor them. I went onto BBC website as they said couldnt find anything. Emailed Greenforce to ask where I could send money - no response so I havent been able to do it
2 f 4's and 1 tr 6 to go (since haz told me it is a tr 6 - that helps me with those f 4s) - aagh - can't believe I'm hung up on 4 letter words - LOL
Sad news on the headlines, they have found Mark Speits body. Hi Deeha
Hi all, going very slowly today!

and they have stinky feet
They choose it TO, and this time i lucked out, Awesome pool, gated entry, garden tub...
change the choo choo
not as stinky as rennies
do they pay, too?!
my feet are pretty stinky...and i love arm pit odor
just like partick
for the housing, essentially I pay for it, but the company secures the lease and pays the bills, it's just taken out of the bill rate...if that makes sense, they say its "free' but of course, its paid for by the bill rate....

MLF - this used to be the only list available. Copy and paste it into a word processing document. Then you can put it into columns and take out extra spaces. A grid like this you can get on one page.
bye tyg
to save paper set it up to print in columns
I did today's because of bookwoman's clues, but they're gone now; jac took them down.
Instead I opened a blank page , cut and paste list & erase as I found them
gn, gr x 7 -- missing?
pug as i had said not doing it everytime and you are right but i thought at least once wont hurt too much
good suggestion, mcurl
only put in one sheet, when that is printed on turn it over and print on the other side
have had to use that route occasionally!
i dont even know if ic an set print that way or not meaning that i dont know if i know how to do so
cyber - missing a gr
9 g words nan
copy and paste it. Easy peasy
will guess which one...
*weeping* I finally finished the vowels!
ty musicmon and hello to you ltns
cyber - do you have g + ri4/4
open new word document, copy and paste list to word doc and then that's where you set it to do columns
yes -- have that one kje
Did i get a clue for the one i asked for?
Before lickety I would do it this way every day and take it with me with a copy of the grid.
i just opened a new tab , saves on paper and ink
have gr 5 x 3 and gr 4 x4
yeah having it on that much paper is a lot
cyber - gr + rebel w***out a cause?
that works too squidgy but it is editable when you put it in another document.
you're missing a gr 5
*sniff sniff* Mmm. Can smell mushroom stew bubbling away in the crock pot.
that was it -- ty kje
man - judi - wine now stew - what are you doing to us!!!!

ra + **ce to see ya
I needed that one too--TY, ruru
thnks, i swear i monkeyed everything i could think of.
you look so dark and moody today nb...
You are not invisible, nbjasmine. I am wearing my infrared goggles and I can see you there in the dark.
i can help clue, jasmine :)
actually i am very very down. on the verge of tears every few minutes. we had to put our dog down yesterday
oh no. i'm so sorry nb. :(
I am so sorry, nb
i am distracting myself with babble today
oh.. sorry to hear that..we lost one of our recently too......that is so tough
she was such a good dog.
jasmine, im so sorry about your doggie!!!! i know that must have been difficult {hugs jasmine}
Oh, no, nbjasmine! Pam's dog died on Apr4, Loredana lost her bunny on Apr 8, my sister's bunny was euthanized on Apr 10...it is too sad!
that is hard nbjasmine
Give yourself a hug, nbj. It's only been a week for me....
Ruru, that was a cat, right?
What a memory, scrabs....
{{{pam}}} sorry for your loss too
i'm sorry about your losses, everyone.
oh, jasmine.... i'm sorry about your dog. we have been through that before too.
no.. our Sophie's mom..a female Golden
Thanks, Lil. I miss her.
Pam, I have a spooky memory--I can enter things like that. Eidetic memory.
How many do you have now, ruru?
neat, scrabs...
I love Goldne retrievers--so majestic looking.
my beloved Minnie (god rest her little kitty soul) died in 1991 and i still think of her and miss her every day
we are down to two.. and no cats..I really miss having cats around
cats are neat... I am glad mine is still here... she'll be 18 in august
babble is a fun and educational distraction, thank goodness!!!!!
That's an old lady, Pam.
nb.. you have to get rest and try to eat all of the favorite things that make you feel good and call friends to reach out. it is soooo tough
we are all here to help you , jasmine :)
I keep telling old bunny Callie to die a quick and peaceful death so that I don't have to make the euthasia decision/
yes, that's a toughie, scrabs
I am lucky with her, scrabs. I knwo what you mean about Callie...
Very excellent advice, ruru...
She did rally a few wks ago, and I was prepared to euthanize her before that. Now this is an added bonus for her and me.
8-) scrabs
We know our beloved pets will die but the thought and experience are unbearable.
it was sudden. she was hit by a car.
Oh, nbj, I am so sorry...
she had massive internal injuries
Oh, no, that is even worse!!! ((nbjasmine))
OH No Jasmine- so sad.
you hope they die just like we want to die- softly, in our sleep. but it didn't happen that way
Did she go quickly?
no. she was missing all friday night. we searched but couldn't find her. she suffered all night before we found her saturday morning
oh no, so sorry about the pets, Pam and Jasmine
how did she get out, nbj? And, I am sorry she suffered...
Thanks, krista
Now I am crying too---it is a heartbreaking story.
nbjasmine, just be sad, that is all you can do.
we still miss our silly little guinea pig that died in Feb..told the kid that is nothing to losing a dog one has had for years
gate left open. we live out in the country on dirt roads. no speed limits, nothing
*passes Kleenex all around*
still, it is a loss, krista
TY, monkey
I am sorry, nbj...
so hard to lose our beloved pets! people without pets just don't understand...
it is a loss. so sorry krista
was this just yesterday???
I always counsel people not to leave their pets outdoors unsupervised, and they wonder why. So very sad.....
There is such a special bond with our pets!
gotta go now. thank you all so much for listening. and so sorry about your losses. yes just yesterday, we had to euthanize
mo 6/21 plz
after my Minnie died of lymphoma, peoeple said "Just get another cat" Like she could be replaced! That's crazy@
bye
((((HUGS)))))) nbj
sorry and byeeeeeeeeeee jasmine! come back tomorrow xx
"me" in French + droplets of ***n fall from the sky
people don't know what to say, so they say stupid things with kind intentions..would be more helpful to just be there with you and your pain and say "I don't know what to say!"
what kind of fool word is that, Scrabbs?
yep, krista
I try to remmeber that now, Krista, when I hear about other people's pets dying... I don't EVER want to say some of the stupid things said to me
krista~Classical Mythology. a. the personification of fate.
ty scrabbler
I know, lil...
Dr_God made up that word, mo6/21, just to cause extreme emotional trauma to us.
it's a goddess of fate, Kirsta
Or it could be what Pam just said.
LOLOL
And if Monkey said the same thing then it must be true
i've been knocked down a peg in my knowledge of mythology
But mythology is all a big myth, isn't it?
LOLOL, krista
Dr_God is the mythological god of wordyism
Yes, and we seem to worship him by returning here everyday
yeah, it does make one more empathetic..or is it empathic..toward others, monkey
Joseph Campbell was a myth
yeah, monkey..does he really exist??
need the last mo 5/12 plz
let's start a support group... OH WAIT Babblers Anonymous already exists!!!!!
Is any of this real?
plural of the mo4 above it, chunky
we're all figments of Dr. God's imagination
I love Fig Newtons
me, too, scrabs. I buy the cheapie whole foods own brand now... And, occasionally treat myself to fig newmans...
do you like biting the little crunchy fig seeds like me?
tyx
saw those the other day, Pam..the name made me LOL
I like the raspberry newtons best!
those little seeds hurt my teefs!
i discovered Keebler Elf Fudge Grahams the other day DELICIOUS
aw, poor monkey toofs..uh oh..is that a word today
yummmm, arriving during the food connection! Hi Everyone!
it's in the grid but not a word, krista
Oooohhh, monkey--those are good, especially a whole pile of them in a dish with milk.
yes, I love chewing on the seeds!
oh i'm not a milk fan... but the "whole pile" of Fudge Grahams sounds good!
yep, they are hard to eat in small quantities...hey lbd..you know we always talk about food sooner or later
I have NO junk food here and I am so craving chocolate. It is almost 10 miles to the closest store.
lol, i wish i had some fig or raspberry newtons...
Cookies are best eaten "in a whole pile" and covered with milk.
*starts packing a care package of Fudge Grahams, choc kisses and Coco Puffs for scrabs*
im dying with the K words here today! anyone help me put a bit?x
I have healthy crap--fruit, etc
they have a special little crunch like no other, don't they Pam
healthy crap..LOL
Brownies would be great too, monkey
*out, not put!lol
c'mon scrabs! you need a little chocolate! this life ain't no dress rehearsal!
Lou, I am recovering from those K's.
lou, ka + a douglas *** tree
*bakes a big pan of brownies for scrabs*
chocolate is a health food. keeps me from killing hubby and other strangers! lol
I have chocolate at work.
thanks lbdawger
Good point, dawger.
lou, abel brother, but spelt with a ka
we bought some Godiva chocolate sorbet...just doesn't cut it..you're expecting that "mouth feel" of ice cream, but it's icy instead
had that one, but thank u
ka + ** i had a hammer, i'd hammer my thumb!
try Edy's, krista
healthy for them, ay, Lbd! that's a good one
LOL lbd
yes, krista, those seeds are the BEST...
Edy's double churned yogurt blends has a short existence in my freezer
http://tinyurl.com/ytszm stress relief

oh Krista, it was so fun!!!!! Littlebit is adorable! We had chinese food for lunch, then shopped --- LIttlebit helped me find the perfect little black dress -- then we had a pedicure
scrabs, i always hide a choco bar in the freezers, hubby just doesn't bother looking for my stash in there.
aw, that's great! perfect girl's day out
ki** and Kin
I used to hide stuff, but it isn't there anymore. Somebody ate it. **Hm, who might that be?**
yes, i hope we can do it again soon... too bad no other Babblers live close enuf to join us!
baaad Callie! lol

Callie is a choc bar thief????
Yes, of course i cannot blame myslef, dawger, LOL!!!!!!!!

Yes, that's it, dawger, my evil twin is responsible for all of my problems.

hi gaing!

lou, **e End!
Hi feather!
hillary, must be a RA b/c there are only 4 RI
rhymes with <-------
Hi Feather
7 ra's all 4's, 4 ri's Hillary
sigh, I know. it's all organized, just need to plug the info into Tax Cut..latest I've ever been
hillary, do you have RA the wife of a raja?
so at what point is it ok for me to want to strangle daniel...when he takes the paint roller and does part of the wall while i'm nursing nick and daddy's distracted elsewhere, or when he says he doesn't want to do his room in an ocean theme anymore (after i finished the last wall) he wants a zoo
I don't mail my checks until Apr 15--I keep my money until the last moment.
yes i think so...
feather! nice to see ya
brb,
thank u!x
my dad's been woring on mine tonight for me
ra the precipitation ?
Feather, this is when I recommend bungee cords and duct tape to parents--quite effective discipline tools.
ra the military level?
ra** and rave ???
oh no, Feather!!
i have ra 4/4, 4/8, 4/4, 4/8, 4/4, 4/5...
ra the garden tool???
hehehe, gee, i think you had the same advice for when nick started rolling over and keeping himself awake!
you need ra4/8 after the garden tool, change last vowel
Multi-faceted advice IS the best
i am sure I did, Feather
he did pretty good with the roller actually, the little stinker. only had a few drips.
af 5/16 plz
hey, she's a professional...must be tried and true advice
lemme tell ya, sometimes a bungee cord or two is pretty appealing!
ah! the one combination i havenlt tried...
hi Uni, how are you?
YAY hillary :)
thanks all.
was the part he painted easy to fix?
Hi Krista! Trying to get last 60 so I can work some more on paper due tomorrow
Your priorities are in the proper place, like the rest of us, I see. :)
Out with it, JKGNYC, don't be shy.
hi, feather!
af 5/16 plz?/
sorry lol
wish someone would "accidentally" type some words in the chog...
af 5/16...one of those things on the end of ur leg!!
some words
sorry, i know that's awful to say on here
lol scrab
lolol, scrabs
LOL Scrabbler..of no help to me, tho
LOL Krista
I am looney--3 F words to go
be careful when u ask for those
do you want some help, scrabs?
Is an4 part of an8?
that's right, scrabs! LOL
Yes, bzz
yes Bzzn
Thanks much!
an4 + ri4 = strategy for unruly crowds
sorry, had to go help him find the kitty
How is everyone tonight?
yeah, he painted on a spot i hadn't done yet, so it was just a matter of spreading out
doing well, thanks, and you, Bzzn??
in7 clue, please :)
i drank lots of wine and I'm buzzin, Bzzn! LOL
whew, that's good, at least...eric wants his whole room painted red...can you imagine that..told him one or two walls, maybe
Thanks for the clue, Scrab.
thanks, scrabs!
Uni , in + stuff that makes cereal
Krista, I'm not doing as well as monkey!
wow, red? seems like it would feel creepy!
I have finished... who needs clues?
yes, well, apparently none of us are, Bzzz ;) ;)
Thanks Laurie..stupid babble
Monkey, my MIL is here so NO drinking!
bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
YW Uni
creepy, plus the room is tiny and he already has an energy surplus, so I'm not digging the red idea
can't see the in7? help, please?
i guess it's better than black
in + a ***** of rice
in + gr5
thanks, lil!!!!!!!
oh, i have a new facebook addiction...word twist. it's like text twist, against friends
krista, maybe you could talk him into just one red 'accent' wall ???
i'm back with a nice cuppa tea and a piece of choco cake!
lol, true, Feather..that'll be Kielen in a year or so
* gets in lil*monkey scooter and starts driving to Montana*
that's what I was thinking, monkey..one or two, or one with red trim on things
hints for the O or the A just beneath it?
one red accent wall looks very nice :)
Done, finally! PLease, peoples, we must track down Lickety and plead with him to allow one of us to be the adminstrator for his program. I cannot take another 3 1/2 wks of no list.
feather, i have been playing Word TWist too ... It's so fun and addicting!
he's gone for a whole month?
please tell me you are joking about the 3.5 weeks....
Congrats, scrabs!
I thought the same thing Scrabs..I don't see why one of us couldn't do whatever it is he does to make it go. We just need someone in the right time zone or with the right sleeping pattern
whoooo hoooooo SCRABS!
**hopping on the back of monkey's scooter as we race to Montana to join dawger for choc cake!!
YAY scrabs!
i'll start another game with you in a moment monkey

just clued the o at 8:23
Lickety keeps a clean foot, Monkey. :)
eveything OK, lickety?
To the PB, krista
and are you found now, Lickety?

DOH..it was worth it, Scrabbs

So, moments after I finish the grid the list comes up. Phew, I am a better person for that.
oh, we were told you were on holiday. I am so sorry, Lickety (((((HUGS))))))
((Lickety)) We love you!
hi lickety, I was about to give up babble without you

Things are straightening out then Lickety? I had an inkling of the situation but I know it is not our business :D

lickety -- doo hope all is all right...

How's it feel to be as powerful as Dr_G, lickety?
is everything ok lickety?
Good vibes coming your way, Mr. Lickety, whatever the problem
anyways - hopefully all will be as usual, if I'm a little late - just remember I haven't quit. I gotta run - maybe I'll do a video diary soon.
I don't think I would be as addicted to Babble if the list wasn't there as an aid.
Lou, pirate talk, and what you will say when you find it.
Say hi to MRP, lickety. And, thanks for everything!
*sending good karma to Lickety & Mr P*

Speaking of Lickety, I've read backthat he's now 'found' again and his list's back up. Makes the list in my bio redundant then. LOL. However, his list says it's for 14th April when actually it's for 13th. Hope he notices that at the flip or confusion may be rife.
ty kje super clue got it.
do you think he knows what he is drawing?
yw mkg
see kje? nothing wrong with your clues
thank god licketys list is back! Its been hellish on us rookies without it!

ka4, walking stick (spalled wrong)
(spalled?) (OY)
what does it mean gwen that is derogatory?
gwen i need the other ka 5 please.
it is a derogatory word for dark-skinned people. similar to wog
(sorry, only have one ka5 so far)
never heard wog either. guess i am not in the right crowds.
mkg, i assume you are american, a-la the flag? these are british words
okkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkki am american.
That word originally stood for 'Western Oriental Gentleman' and then got used for everyone of a different skin colour from 'white'.
well still need second ka 5 if anyone has it.
hunting for more K words . . .
2nd ka4/5 is like the first murderer's name, Abel's brother. Failing that, it sounds like a bamboo pole that supports beans or aids walking.
if you saw movie Gorillas in the Mist, then you heard a character use the word wog in a derogatory manner
BBS - I've got a missing sock from that laundry I wss doing...
jacula, the IPU must have taken you sock -- rejoice! LOL
found another ka5: take the large hopping australian animal and leave out the 3rd, 4th, 5th letter
Gwen - that's a South African word for a barren tableland. It's also a fantastic apricot sauce from SA to cook chicken in.
IPU, Gwen??
jacula, which word?
ty ty got it.
IPU see below
t's my daughter's sock, not mine. I hope it's in the dryer and not in with the maroon wash, since it's a pink and purple sock.
