there are a lot of plurals not being accepted here
right mrp
le7/36 should be able to be pluraled

Just typed six words in and it won't put them on the grid. The site must be playing up. Anyone else got problems?
Hello hydra - site's okay for me.
I'm OK down here Hydra
Just out of interest - how's your cat with the missing tooth?
I read your log and saw your dilemma.
Hi Haz! Very rude of me not to say hello, but I was too cross with the grid! Flad is fine. Full of beans. Thanks for asking. I think he has won the territory battle.
That's good! He must be made of tough stuff!
Just realised I said log instead of blog - but you knew what I meant.
Well, he was a feral so he can take care of himself. I read it as blog!
I should say good morning/evening all as well.
Good morning to you both
Hi lynxxx. I thought you had gone!
Hello lynxxx - nice grid today so far.
Grid is behaving itself now and putting my words in, all 26 of them. Not very good!
Very relaxing grid. I come and go Hydra

See you later, Katie.
I should change my icon, shouldn't I? 2 minutes..

Thanks KJE
just so you know, syringe is not in the grid
KJE any pizza suggestions?
are you making it?
no from that link i just posted
my fave, is figs, proscuitto, goat cheese, arugula, with a balsamic drizzle
oooohhh - hold a sec, was in the grid
OK, my 3 choices are white anchovy, or wild mushroom, or marherita
ni6,21 please?
ni6 - sounds like a patent method of abolishing louse eggs
no wait - drop the margherita - just noticed they use oregano instead of basil
sounds good
I am thinking smoked ham and pineapple
thanks Haz
that would be good too herin
there are lots that sound good, really depends on your mood
You're welcome, forward.
and in traditional pizzas, I like mushrooms best, rarely get meat on pizza
it all is very good pizza
they are very creative - would be tempted by the sweet potato as well
There is another company that we go to that has awesome desert pizza
i need coffee... do they make breakfast pizza herin? cuz that is my time! LOL
sh9 getting clean
that could be done egg bacon basil fresh tomatoes does that sound ok?

I like your birthday balloon Sprites
thanks lady :)
and red :)
Not to be so serious, but I am worried about whats going on in Iran and also N. Korea. goodness...
I always feel stupid about world affairs. I cannot understand why the incredible gift of peace is so often thrown away.
On weekends i don't see the news
I probably need to read more about Korea, I just dont see why they want to so alienate so many people....
is it Ata's birthday today?
I never see news. I can't, it makes me depressed beyond repair. I choose to try and make peace at home and hope it will have a tiny effect on the world.
what's the quote from "Moon for the Misbegotten"? Something about the past happening over and over again?? I will have to find it... but I think it about sums it up!
Here is the quote: "There is no present or future, only the past, happening over and over again, now."
It is Atas birthday,and i do think peace at home helps...
and where is the birthday girl?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!! Dear Ata. Hope you are having a great day.
"There is no present or future, only the past, happening over and over again, now."
It is about power. Pure and simple. That's my opinion.
ah, lol you beat me to it.
Mom2 http://tinyurl.com/nph5lv
Yeah... I found it... 7:09 on the blog. Thanks though!
I saw that but i thought that you may like others
as we dutch say: mustard after the meal
oh, ok... will go there!
errrr that is about myself, not about you, lady.
need help with 8's pls. have sh8x3 and re8
there is this one too: Man is born broken. He lives by mending. The grace of God is glue.
well, I am now oer half way, time for a cup of coffee...
not there yet, peri, I just started.
Good one Sprite...
yes please red, black as my soul please
No idea peri just started
ok, will keep looking
I have a de 8, builds off of the de 6, its a person you assign to do something sort of....
O'Neill was an interesting guy, no doubt.
thanks, will look for the de6
thanks red, got the de6 and de8
oooh, good clue red
far out! so many good words here, so many different endings... I might have to put my brain on hold and go to bed
lovely seeing you all and good night! :)
night MrP
night mrp, sleep well
night
hi and bye mrP
is it ata's babble birthday or normal birthday?
it is her real life birthday
Thanks I will pop on to facebook
1/2 way, bbl
red, it took me a while, but got it now. Thanks for the clue
Glad you got it, sprite. LOL.
roflol yeah, so am I! It's not really my day, is it.
not mine either, but I amgeting better and thats what counts, I guess we are going to have record heat today!
oh dear, not at all comfortable. If it gets too much, feel free to send some this way. Weather is too moderate here atm.
Our heating is on 30 bah too hot
ok, what does one do when he has fallen of his noble steed? Exactly. Stupit enable.
THERE IS is a few RE words taht are not excepted
true, but this one is. As is de- same. Getting off no good either, lol.
lady, can't you lower your heating?
Himself is rather ill
more blankets and less heating, and a bit of fresh air! Much better healing conditions.
I know he said he is very cold.
back in a bit, need something to eat
i may be in bed by then
I am trying to get as much sleep as i can to avoid getting sick and to help him as i wake in the night and worry
fireworks
fun grid
Hi Josh
back again, I'm watching the qualifying and contemplating going to bed for the afternoon
Hi Katie
Hi herin, sorry I couldn't chat on facebook the other day I was late for work
Oh no thats ok
hope himself feels better soon
Thanks Katie he is ill and I am desperately trying to avoid it
I think hubby is finally coming down with my cold having resisted it for a week
i am drinking this horrid mix of stuff to stay better
wb katie, back myself too
hey again
HI sprite, how you doing?
over halfway, loving the endings from today's grid. How about you?
having fun with grid but seriously thinking about going back to bed
bed is good. Aren't you feeling well or just needing more sleep?
a bit of both, stayed at Mari's last night so didn't sleep as well as I would have at home and still got my rotten cold
my personal theory is: if it feels like bed is good, bed is good.
that's a good theory :-)
only exception being for very depressed people, but you don't sound like one at all :)
Bed is hassle avoidance theory
only for some, lady. I have needed to learn to go to bed when it feels like bed, in stead of forcing myself on and on.
Isn't it nice of friends not asking how your b.f who happens to be their friend how well he is now
nope, not really
This is why i don't have much to do with her any more
I can imagine
good idea herin, I hate it when friends were not nice to hubby when we first met, I have nothing to do with one of them now even though her daughter is my Goddaughter
This person introduced us to each other. I thought he was her friend
people can be strange sometimes, see it as her loss not yours
luckily we can choose our friends
YEs indeed I owe her nothing and she owes me nothing hence the not really worrying anymore
I'm doubly lucky as I was blessed with a lovely family as well as good friends from choice
that is wonderful, Katie!
Wonderful Sprite
opps Katie
:)
*feels a bit bad about self, ate whole bag of salty thingies after 2 very good days of healthy food*
Oh well sprite
but that has gone so forgive yourself and get back on the healthy food :-)
and it is better than eating a whole bag of salty things every day!
yeah... please remind me that this is still better than putting my finger in my throat. "That is not the solution, sprite!"
bad sprite
hi all
hi boobear!
it certainly isn't!!! everyone slips pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back to the healthy stuff
hi boobear
Hi Boo
but good sprite if I behave and accept I slipped, right?
thanks Katie :)
I mean the throat comment not the food comment
yep sprite :-)
hello everyone
just needed that bit of support, lol, thanks both. "Perfectionism usually leads to lower results" --> it is ok to slip. Feel calmer now, all will be ok.
hi Annie :)
Hi Annie
hi sprite...the salty stuff is in the past..move on to a new day
Hi Katie
I go to fat class on and off and that is one of their mottos a bad day is just that, it doesn't have to become a bad week
true. Thanks. Feet on the ground, chin up. I think I will take Terra for a walk and feel good about myself that way. He will love it too :) *hugs* and see you all later. Thanks for the help.
see you later, sprite...excerise for you both
If it makes you feel better I have been asked to be a bridesmaid and i need to lose my chunky butt
*excercise
Bye sprite, enjoy your walk x
you totally rock when it comes to dieting, lady, you do that so very balanced. Bye for now!
i've decided that bed is a good idea, bbl for my last 70

I just looked up
hi Jane
hi harp
Hello from the rainy forest, friends.
Hi Scrabbler
Hi Scrabbler
Hello again. Has Atalante not turned up yet?
We've got ourselves a big grid with many long words today
Hi Haz. The birthday has not shown up as yet
Hi Haz and its ok Scrabbler not to bitey
Hi Hazel
I meant the birthday girl
It's Ata's birthday?
Good morning/evening all - what can she be doing? It's a lovely grid and everything.
Yes, Scrabbler.
Haven't seen her all day :( Afternoon all!
You don't think she's been deported early?
Hi FM!
Hello FM!
Hi FM
Hi FM
Deported? Where is she?
how many letters in the lone E please?
good morning all!
hi Scrabbler :)
Hi Nanette--getting lots of rain your way?
4
She's due to go to the States in July. She claims it's for a holiday but it's actually a deportation.
e7/28 harp
Hi Haz! didnt see you pop in
jane, forget my clue...wrong box
She may well be in the holding cells at Heathrow. FM, you're closest, you might be needed to bail her out.
hi FM
thanks fm
Hello Nono!
Well, she can move in with me, although the bunnies may not like Hobbit and the cats.
Ata is probably eating cake with Hobbit on a beach somwhere
hello all, babbling til my niece and her bf come to help me move some of the heavier stuff. alas, it is raining
yes scrabbs plenty of rain lately
You're very hospitable, Scrabbler.
Nanette, I might vacation in Penn Yan (cottage on Keuka Lake) in Sept. Is that near you?
Hi Peri
I wonder if Ata knows that Nadal isn't able to defend his title.
peri, are you on the east? It's going to rain here in boston for the next NINE days straight
maybe a bit over an hour away
Darn. PB for me.
oh has he pulled out?
Hi Trif
yes I am in PA
9 days!!!
He has, FM. He's not fit enough.
morning scrabbs! being lazy today, which is a pity, as I have a to do list longer than my arm....
hope it does not do that here, rain makes me depressed sometimes
and moving is stressful enough
So Murraymania can step up a gear.
I have to recertify for CPR--class is 2:30----til we're done
Ah I haven't read the papers yet today
peri, are you moving close to where you live now?
Rain makes me glum too
at this point we are beyond glum. I had to wipe mold off the children the other day, I swear!
Any sw words?
yes, 15 minutes from here but in a nice neighborhood. 3 other people live there and another cat. I hopeful that all will go well. need to build up my retirement account again and buy a newer car
I will swap you rain for a fevourish person
Yes, Scrabbler.
at least one scrabs
no thanks, herin
peri, I wish you much luck and happiness in your new place
TY, Hazel
oh, and here's something "fun" - remember the other day, when I chaperoned the field trip to the beach? ever since the car stopped smelling like new car, and started to have a really interesting pomme. did a deep exam the other day, and found one of the cherubs had left a crab claw under the back seat. GROSS
thanks Annie
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
eww, Trif, that really does stink
You're welcome, Scrabbler, just the one sw.
ugh
Oh, those smell awful, Trif!
yuck, trif
Aha, that sw word is twisty
I am missing some 8's. have sh8x3 and re8 and de8
clue for re 8 please
I just noted the gerund tail.
color and animal, Boo
I found the re8 by myself!!
ni8 - plural of ni7 - louse egg sets sail on a ho5?
3 wks today we'll be in the Adirondack Mtns---11 ladies total!
excellent clue, Haz, thanks
re8/55 - taking on new workers again
That sounds wonderful Scrabbler
thanks Haz for the re8
You're welcome.
sounds like fun Scrabs
Trifs is the car going to not stink again now that its gone?
We will have a blast, moreso if the weather cooperates.
ty8 - combine an apprentice (alternative spelling) with a math term
yes, herin. that and a bottle of febreeze did the trick!
That ty8 is an amino acid.
thanks Haz and Scrabs, new word for me
You're welcome.
Febreeze has not managed to destink my coat
what got on it, herin?
back again, after a wonderful walk. Hi Scrabs, how's work? Bearable?
stink
welcome back, spritey
what kind of coat is it - fabric?
IF you think skunk it would likely smell like that. ITs tainted boy BO stink
try baking soda. works great
Love to its silk lining
thanks Annie :)
and hi all
shake a ton of baking soda into a black garbage bag, put the coat in, and leave it for a couple of days.
Hello sprite.
tie the bag shut, of course
Hi Sprite! It is bearable, because when I witness the daily drama and bad behavior, I know that I won't have to endure it after Sept 28th. It reconfirms my decision. On the other hand, I see families and hate the thought of not seeing them again, as my new office is 30 miles away and many parents will not choose to make that drive.
Good idea, trif
And make sure that no cats are in the bag.
but those that really feel they need you, will make the drive, Scrabs. We're all rooting for you :)
Haha, Hazel
lol Haz *shudders at thought*
scrabbler, you are so so so doing the right thing! you need to be in a place where you can practice without stress and distraction. the new environs will help you be a be a better doctor
TY, Sprite. I have become so serene and relaxed now that I have made my decision.
Because letting the cat out of that particular bag might be interesting.
clue for re 8/50
We should have a big party to celebrate Scrabbler's freedom on Sept. 28th
Scrabs is it up to you to tell your patients that you are leaving or will the clinic you work for tell them
night all
if you still needed any si4 it was the right decision, that would be it, Scrabs.
re8/50 -a scarlet equine
night lady *hugs*
nitey nite Herin
good night herin. hope your dear one feels better soon!
we will, Annie! Scrabs, is Sep 28 your first day of freedom or your last of aggrevation?
Richard said that in mid-July I may share the news with parents and staff. For now he wants me mum so as to avoid chaos. <---his word
lol... yeah sure, as if he doesn't revel in chaos.
oops time to become nurse Nono and give hubby his meds. Be back in a bit
Monday, Sept 28th is my last day unless he allows me to switch that day, at the beginning of the week.
bfn Nanette
Free at last!
ok, let's be forward then and celebrate the 28th. Would that be ok for you, Scrabs, or rather the day after?
Bastille day for Scrabbler!!!
I will certainly let everyone know the day of release. It might change.
what does the last 8 start with pls?
I have been urging the youngest partner to escape too. The older one is totally brainwashed by him, as her husband is similar.
and Scrabs, be sure to check the icons every 1st of the month until then.
How many sh8 do you have, peri?
Oh, Sprite, my curiosity has been piqued.
3 sh8 is what I have Haz
argh Scrabbler, a husband and a working partner like that, how awful.
I have 4 sh8s
Do you have sh8/55 being the plural for the sand reinforcing sh7/40?
in my profile, Scrabs :) Am updating now for the 28th of Sep.
Haz! Thank you for sh 8/55
I do now, Haz, thanks so much. have all the big ones.
thanks Haz
You're welcome, peri and Annie and sprite.
getting more anxious about moving
Peri when is the big day?
peri, I had an uncle and aunt who moved something like 26 times (to do with his job). My aunt used to joke that the movers got to know her by first name and she declared that it was the best thing for not storing clutter.
Sprite, I tried to see your profile but my PC went bonkers--I'll try again later
peri, You will be fine. Moving is stressful to say the least. It is fun to fix up a new place.
Yes, Peri, it will be a fresh start.
Scrabs: http://tinyurl.com/59gnm3
Hi Red, feeling better?
starting too Scrabbs. I am...
Hi red...hope you feel better today
moving is stressful for almost everybody. But the new place will be good for you as you are now, for sure.
er starting to.
A couple of nights before we moved house, I dreamt that my husband insisted that we should only take what we could fit into the boot of the car. Talk about being glad to waken up!
ouch Haz
Exactly!
I see it now, Sprite, so I must figure out how to post pics of my bunnies.
hi all!
Hello TO!
Hi Owl!
Hi TO.
ah that would be fun, Scrabs! But if you don't have the time or energy, just lean back and enjoy all the bunnies that will pop up to support you.
hey TOwl :)
I still have a wheezy cough but not the nonstop cough of Monday-Wednesday. I started Symbicort Monday night and that has helped a lot.
Hi Owl
Glad you are getting better. I think to be honest I had something like Croup. LOL
hi haz, annie, red, spritey, scrabs
Do that sh8's all end with -ing?
yes
I had this wierd high pitched cough....but its going along better now, I am leary of using steroids.
Me too, red--I felt it in my larynx + trachea, spasming.
back, hi red and TO
I guess LTB would be the appropriate dx.
2 are gerund endings--the other 2 are gerund plurals
Plurals, duh.
steroids are to be avoided... until you really need them. And then you should not hesitate to take them for the whole prescribed time.
Phone...
Yes, red, exactly. I almost took some prednisone but decided to go with inhaled steroid + bronchodilator. It sure helped me. This has happened before, so I probably have mild asthma.
scrabs, know anuything about wild bunnies?
Yes, I adore them and fear for wild babies everywhere now. I stopped in the road Thursday evening to let a doe cross the road, waiting for other deer to follow, and there came a wobbly fawn.
I have cold induced asthma, and I think with all your kid exposure Scrabbs, you probably needed something.
scrabs i am sorry you are ill...you resp system seems to be your weak spot.
squeeee wobbly fawn!
I love baby deers!
awwwww *melts*
I have nasal allergies, so asthma is often part of that--a tendency for the entire respiratory tract to become inflamed.
scrabs i never saw a bunny act like this one, just running to anf fro along the fence andleaping and pouncing
The fawn crossed the road, but couldn't immediately jump the guard rail. It went along the shoulder of the road, parallel, to the guard rail, looking forlorn (that is when I almost pulled over to get out of the car and help it) then took a big leap and joined the concerned mama. It was SO sweet to witness, and I am glad the guy in the pick-up truck behind me was patient.
yay for the guy too
Bunnies do that when they are happy. Miss Bea does crazy sprints all over down here when she is excited. And bunnies do "bronco flips"--mid air twists, leaps, ect.
Scrabs...I am getting choked up. God bless all the animals of our planet..We have a lot to learn from them
ain't that the truth, Annie
*going to living room to do crazy sprints and bronco flips*
that is exactly what it was doing!
wo5/18?
LOL, Scrabbs
when it can easily get better, harpjane
i would do bunny flips forde8 and the sewcond en7 ;)
Then it was a very happy bunny, Owl. It cheers one up to watch, doesn't it? And I enjoy watching the squirrels and chipmunks in my yard.
jane, more severe
i once happened upon a moose and her calf swimming a river. The calf got stuck in a tree branch and the cow jumped back in the river and BODY SLAMMED THE TREE until the calf was free
well i would have bveen more cheery if i knew what it was doing! HAD NEVER SEEN ONE DO THAT
Cool, Jane!
TOwl: en7: gives you a right to
thanks annie
TO, en7 add the name of a book
wow harpjane!
You probably thought it was rabid, huh, Owl?
TY for en7
yvw
de 8 ---one assigned
well my company was dubious...do rabbits get rabid?
ty all for en and de
de 8 ---de 6/27 and 2 vowels
I suppose they could, if infected by other wildlife, but not as likely as raccoons, foxes, etc
*still thinking of that de8*
wr7?
TY, Annie!
scribed with pen, harpjane
thanks
scrabs: stop flipping, you will hurt your breathing ;)
something on paper by hand harp
I once saw a family of wild turkeys walking in a row behind my daughter's house. One of the little one's walked out of line and the father squawked very loudly and the baby got back in line quickly.
Cute, Annie.
such lovely mental images

It is indeed, TO and she is nowhere to be seen.
What a pain, Owl.

I do hope she's not out stalking John Barrowman again.
whoa harp i am not getting that...

that is a really awful image there harp
thanks sprite
haz and sprite, i think he is saying we are old!
I trust Ata is having a wonderful day, babble can wait!
i know, and i truly apologize for putting it out there in cyberland
but i'm drinking more coffee soon...
TOwl, is he now? *gently grabs ruru and makes him face us*
I'm terribly afraid of that as well, TO.
LOL, Jane
no... TO is is just so defensive .. I admire you three
My bottom lip is ready to quiver.
Good boy... ;)
lol
Cheering right up.
*** feels much younger now....***
well, i really SHOULD stop ignoring those 59 s-words

lol harpjane
I remember when ruru used to be my friend *sniff*
hi FM.. love you too
phone

silly ruru has memory lapses, FM. He lubs you to bits.
hiya fm!
We're sensitive souls, aren't we?
with 82 left, I seem to be slowing down....
lol and Hi all :)
no kidding I am tap dancing throught this chog
certainly, Haz
Haz forget what I said this morning about it being a normal race it, the town is heaving!
126 to go
I passed halfway...time for breakfast.
normal race day even!
brb
wow, my last 6 (!) words were all ty. Fireflies!
see you scrabs
Oh dear - are you hemmed in on all sides, FM?
so you will have a nice quiet day mitch?
Congratulations sprite!
Congrats spritey sprite!!
what race? are you crazy folks rolling cheese down hill again?
enter one more old lady
cheese rolling!
You're not an old lady, Dorens. Ruru thinks we're grand dames, so there!
hey doren! how was your flight?
thanks all :) Must be off, enjoy the grid and eachother, and thanks for the talk. Hi and bye Dorens, you sh5 young lady.
aha.. grand dames, I'll take that!
LOL TO, that is a sight to behold but no, its the last day of Royal Ascot 5 days to horse racing and much fashion and fun (apart from when you time it wrong and get stuck in the traffic trying to get to the post office)
If there's a hill and there's cheese, what else are you supposed to do?
and happy birthday to the brilliant and smug atalante
heh heh Haz!
flight was great owl, and stones, such as they were, are a thing of the past.
make grilled cheese sandwiches?
i've heard of the cheeserolling... definitely monty python material
serve it with wine crackers and fruit?
anyone else trying to enter syringe?
I'm trying to think of mad things that Americans do.
more than once, red!
That place where they chase the cheese every year its more of a clif than a hill, everytime I see it on TV I hold my breath.
it shouldn't be that hard haz
and syringa also
sadly haz, I think its run about with guns.
dye their hair blond and get implants? ;)
they invented fast food and Ronald McDonald for 1
We do have the insane donut 10 k. You run 10k to a Krispy kreme shop, eat 12 donuts and then run back. Vomitrocious.
(Sits back and lets the Americans condemn themselves)
we're good at it.
are you serious red?? never heard that one
Its in Raleigh NC. Not always a pretty sight.
lol haz
we know stupidity when we see it, eh?
Yes, indeed. Every country has its own share of 'Why on earth do we do that' scenarios.
note that none of US is guilty of any of those atrocities!
why oh why can i not see either gi6? :/
gi6/27 - used in construction
I have one of them TO - think steel beams
um, dorens? North Carolina is in the US....
yes it is, but have any of us joined in this race?
ty
There's a Scottish drink called Irn-Bru. The ad claims (in strong Scots accent) 'Made in Scotland from gi6/27s.
i meant that yes, americans do these things... but no babblers do
Whats the other one oh font of all clues dear Haz?
gi6/24 - ends in a metal.
ty
ty haz
Or 'GI6/24 the house when I tell you!'
You're welcome.
rhymes (of sorts) with baby cat
ooh doren - just watching pbs about burt wolfe river cruise...where did you cruise?
burgundy?
flipping heck I made hard work out of those great clues, thanks!
yes, ty
You're welcome!
I am off to play tennis.. later you guys..
enjoy ruru
Bye ruru.
bye ru
re8 pls?
ah! finally halfway and nbt so i can list. have much to do today (including meeting up with wildcat)
The first is a scarlet equine, the second is to be prepared to give work again.
oh sounds fun Dorens
Non-babblers would wonder why Dorens was so keen to meet up with a wildcat.
and the sun is shining brightly i hope!
We'll need pictures and a full report.
heehee,,,, and yes,, sunny and hot owl.. definitely not home
have camera, will report
That's good.
:P
Any help for gi 6/24 among you kind souls?
kje was prepared to drive here from houston, but her partner's wife went into early labor so she can't leave
see 9:57 inge
ir 6/21 the last pls?
Being in possession of a flower/part of eye
i have one that is past tense of flower, if that helps
ah, in possession does make more sense, haz o wise one
ty!
No problem.
Okay, time for the wise one to take the short, hairy one out for a walk. Happy babbling and say hello to wildcat from all of us, Dorens.
Bye Haz!

bye haz - nice to see you!
Don't anyone tell Spangle that I called her short and hairy. Her feelings might be hurt! Byeee!
aaarrrrgggghhhh it is raining again!
spangle the hirsute
hi all *wringning the water out of my hair*
*takes mjc aside* no jmc..it never rains in babblonia
thanks Haz for the gi 6
lol TO and Hi jmc
rain? rain? what is that?
actually as soon as the first drops fell i wanted to strangle someone..unforuntately was on phone with dell tech support rep in india when it began
poor guy
It's no good, am heading to the list to put myself out of my misery.
I just came in from a downpour *mopping up drips on the floor*
OMG I am soooo sick of the rain!
that doesn't sound good to me FM
and I start off in the pb to boot! lol
re7/2pls?
lol I think its a good grid today jmc but I've just not got the right head on today.
looking for jmcs pb word...
you should go back and get teh right one then FM ;-)
Well the PB is waterproof and there are some hair dryers in there soemwhere :)
its not a bad grid, I only have 77 left with not much effort yet...
*looking for a terrycloth robe*
go red!
Oh maybe there is hope for me too then Im at 81 red.
definitely fuzzy rode and slippers.
err robe.
Ask one of the cabana boys jmc
any hot tea?
FM you usually zip throught them though, whereas I plod. and then occasionally I succumb to Licketys siren song.
this would be really great if I didn't have to go out in a few minutes to take my MIL to lunch
always jmc.
I didn't start till late red and that seems to affect my abitily to find words
For you, it is evening isnt it? I think you are six hours or so ahead of me.
20 past 4 in the afternoon
Ooh my favorite time for a biscuit and coffee....
:)
JMC invite MIL into PB for a fuzzy robe.
I would but she needs to get out not stay in alas
she is down in the dumps
Oh No, lucky to have you around then I suppose. Do you ever go eat at Mr Smiths in Georgetown? Used to be my familys favorite place....
not often -- too hard to get to GT what with no Metro stop
My Dad had a thing for this shop, the book and record ltd.
but when I had a job in Foggy BOttom I ate there all the time
I suppose it still exists, and he probably still spend some time.
there is a place called Foggy Bottom, how great!
What is Foggy Bottom? I am not that well versed in DC, though my parents are only 1.5 or so hours away...
yes, sounds like it should be British
actually FOggy Bottom is where the state department and GWU are both located
it is the area just east of Georgetown
Oooh state dept and fogginess....hmmmm opaque?
I thought people would like that factoid! :-)
too bad the CIA isn't there .. .
lol...
couldn't you see the trench coats in the fog?
little spy cams and badges flashing...
It does doesn't it Dorens, a small village in a Shirlock Holmes mystery perhaps.
itwould have to have an eccentric pub owner...
alas it is pretty much office buildings there
and mr smiths which is a good restuaraunt...

I KNOW!!!! It is front page story. The sky lit up!
Bye Aloy
bye Aloy
OMG!
glad you two are ok, Hgal and Rebecky.. sounds scary!
it must have been horrible for the people in cars pulled up at the crossing. Several were injured tryingto get away
hay...horsegal....do we have water in the basement? I'm afraid it might be a lake down there. Did you electric go out too? wasn't there 1 fatality?
aloy...I
the backyard and church are flooded. No power out, just wnet on and off a few times. Basement is okay
oops, aloy, I'm at the lake and hgal is home
we're sisters
hi, good morning, where was this train derailment?
rockford, il
and your home is close by?
1 mile away
ah so.. haven't read the paper yet but will look for it.. commuter or freight train?
my son, Zach, who is home on leave from the Marine Corps, saw the explosion 5 miles away.
I am from Illinois, and my Mom lives in Rockford...small world
ugh, now I recall.. ethanol tanks.. freight train.. hope the engineer and crew are ok
terrible - at least one person died
freight train. 114 cars 72 filled with ethanol and 12 burned after explosion
oh how horrible
It could have been much uglier than it was. It happened at a crossing that wasn't too near homes, just industrial area
phew! I suspect excessive speed for the weather conditions and trust there will be an investigation.. (I used to work for a railroad).. ok, real poof now.. bye all
114 freight train, 2 exploded. They evacuated 1/2 mile away. We are about 1 mile away
Heavy rains washed away the tracks, according to the media

i had a dog, a mongrel, who could open and close any door in the house, was quite disconcerting in the middle of the night
which is sad now that he is old
the bedroom door would open and close and nobody was there then this huge lump of a daft dog would leap onto the bed
put child lock on it and he still got in
holy cow
wow JOAKAY, clever dog
he is and now we have to put 18 litre water jug in front
gotta check laundry..bbs
there are locks you can get, they designed them for people with a specific eating disorder, they would eat and eat and eat, they have a key
might be a rave for everyday use, but handy if you were going out
i would need a chain around it lol
he's a smart cookie
lol
wow...
Beagles can be really smart
beautiful dog ruru
i figured ..if he gets the jug out of the way,he'd be to tired to open the fridge
lol JOAKAY
works so far
thank you jac

a cook book and John Simpson's memoirs. lucky me. his company have the Book People coming by every month or two to sell cheap remaindered books ....
Never heard of agadoo in Canada either. Perhaps you should visit the colonies on a cultural sharing trip. Might even get a grant from the government if you word it right Ata. Happy birthday
I'll leave you to work out what happened!
*gasp* find it on youtube :)
rofl, I'm sorry I shouldn't laugh, ..... ROFL
I laughed too. Really did. In despair as well!!

Pernod and black was *very* sophisticated
*Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee* still singing
I think that was when we were drinking Lancers
I know! Probably why I never drank it! I was more of a Diamond White cider person when I was 18!
... come and dance every one to a hula melody ...
and Mateus Rose
Diamond White! OMG. that stuff was FOUL. and brilliant
gi6?
*wonders if she can set aga whatsit as a ringtone* lol
I was more into Vodka but when I wanted to show how sophisticated I was I would drink Lancers

Crikey - I think I have just stumbled into Memory Lane!!!!
bacardi and coke days floating back into my head with memories
Hello liz. I am just finishing the grid, I hope and then to have lunch which i have completely forgotton due to the pressures of the grid.
JMC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeswZaR eE0I
hi Katie
LOL Stidg!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UV3kRV 46Zs
All I have had is water. but need the ti 4 and 5 before the last two.
Katie!!! TY :)
bacardi and coke. malibu and coke. still can't drink spirits with coke!
I have lots of ti words Stidg - not sure which you need
Do we have a birthday to celebrate? Is it Atalante? many more and health to go with them.
the same one dance! we all have so much to be ashamed of
or sweet Martini. School parties stopped me ever drinking that stuff again!
ty Stidgy :D
JMC I just thank goodness that digital cameras were not around back then!
cant get it grrr
eeeeewwww sweet martini
Martini and lemonade! Yum :)
We shall have cake when you visit us Atalante. The candles can be assorted and a random number.
dry martini that is
horrid horrid horrid stuff!
I saw a film of me doing that dance as an adult as a friends sons bar mitzva and I threw out the dress!
and placed in chianti bottles not on the cake of course
what do you need kazozz?
Atalante...... A very happy birthday to you. I wish you all you wish yourself!!
I used to sneak sweet martini out of my parent's drinks cupboard. I loved it. Ew. Horrid stuff! I wonder if they ever noticed?
Oh soodle - got sidetracked there - meant to say yes we did the seashells on bottles thing too
ROFL Ata ! Me too
Probably cheaper to throw out the film. . . Nobody else noticed they were all looking at themselves.
lmao! that's fab!
my son was just telling me the only alcohol he didn't sneak out of my cabinet was the Jack Daniels because he knew I would notice that one!
Thank God for that. I thought I was the only one who thought that was cool. Whew
the re 8 stid
lmao, ditto me and mum's southern comfort
Oscar just woofed to go out. Dont want him to wake Sam (poor Sam ) so I'm off now. Enjoy the rest of your night Ata x
ty dear! hug Os for me :)
It had aruffle on the butt and when I shook it in the dance all you could see was my butt!
Oh Soodle - we also used tippex to paint the outside surface of all other tippex bottles. Apparently that was cool then too rofl
re 8, 50 or 55? The re 8, 55 is to re "employ". Look at your h list for the word which was used there.
bye Liz
so long as you hug Hobbity for us x
the 8/50 sorry
*poof*
will do!
lmao jmc!
haaaaappppy birthhhhhday Atalante!!!!!!!!!! hopes she didnt miss the special lady!

Yaaay Kazzoz.

well done Kazozz
wow Kaz!
Are you going to the game JMC?
Kazozz, you got it. Hooray for you!
ni7/32? please
add an e to the ni 6/21 phae
soodle, i like your pipes...
ni 7/32 is a chemical, I think. With three whatevers.
absolutely red
I have season tickets
ni with the crossed letter and then take a little trip.
ty stid
don't have the ni6...have ni7/28
wow a die hardfan. is it hot out? here we are under heat advisory
Red - I'm a bit behind the times. Cant change the icon without my teenagers here to help!!
it rained and rained and now it is bright and hot and windy
same as the 7/28 just change last consonant
well walk you through it, soodle!
so odd I was playing babble this morning when there was a knock on the door. . .
We can help, but i do like the pipes...
it was staff from the Nationals selling tickets door to door! lol
I use the grid with firefox. When it goes to the other server everything stops and drops and nothing happens. So, my picture remains the same. At least you know it is mine.
Oh no jmc, was it the prize patrol?
Ata, why you not out painting the town a delicate shade of pink, if your not up to red>
ty
that sh5 you how desperate they are!
Stidg, i love arthur so seeing your icon is always cherring!
cos there's no town round here to paint!!
you could paint the hills red ata
no hills either :P
a lot of marshes and beaches lol
I imagine they are. In Durham they had a great way to sell tickets to the Bulls games, they had a playground on site and some other things for people to do...I bet the Nationals have something similar.
hmmm I am running out of things for you to paint
Coule I get the ti 4 and 5 clues (not the bottom two but just above).
okay paint the reeds red
Paint your nails perhaps and then toe nails?
good plan stid!
There are very cute little pictures for nails these days I think they must be decals.
ti4.4 ti & half the flower
maybe in the morning, i'd need to go buy some paint :P
ty lynxx I got 4 out of that
not using my expensive waterclours on reeds!
maybe some food coloring?
good idea
I am full of good ideas . . . just don't ask me to actually do anything
By painting the town red, I actually meant, waking up tomorrow morning with the whites of your eyes a delicate shade of pink!!
ditto!
can i get a clue for the re8/50?
color equine phae
that's normal!
Lol. Have the bruises gone away?
no *sigh* getting there!
ty jmc
yw
110 and its time to go catch the train to the game
bbl unless the game goes too long
happy happy birthday ata --- thanks for sharing it with us!
ty dear! have a wonderful day!
Ata, is it a significant birthday? One that ends in a zero?
Happy Birthday Atalante!
nope, 35
That sounds bad...every birthday is significant, but is it a MORE significant birthday than otheres?
today is my daughters birthday
35????? A mere child!!!
ty Car :)
Your still heading UP the hill. some of us have arrived at the top, and are heading over it!!
I wish! I feel *old* today!

Better than I deserve, Pam.

what's going on?
No, I am really lucky and blessed, that is what I mean.
That's great, scrabs!
Did you change jobs yet Scrabs?
Not yet, DR, as there is a 120 day notification delay, to give Richard time to find a replacement. So my last day is Monday, Sept 28th unless we change it to the end of the prior week.
But everyday at work is confirmation that I made the right decision.
ok.. well at least there is an end in sight- that is the good part
And time is needed to work on paperwork for changes--insurances, hospital privileges, etc
de6-7 combo please?
that makes sense
de6- to want something
de7- pl it
TY, DR, and now you may beat me with a brown trout.
Next: di7 please?
LOL _ I did not have it until you asked and it jumped out at me
I do not have the di7 - sorry

WTG WooHoo feather
Hi dawger
whoooo hoooo Feather
yay, feather!!
yay weed!!!
Hi Dawger!
squirt squirt squirt
Hi DR!
Hi Scrabs
oh, speaking of squirt, we discovered we have poison ivy in our garden.
I have been tempted to do it, scrabs, but I don't want to be that connected, an dpay that money
mmm, that was yummy.
Oh bad weed, bad weed.
we saw poison oak on the trail - but no itch yet
what was, hursh
anyone know how to get rid of it? the branch like root is sticking up right in the middle of my grandma's peonies. it was lovingly transplanted from PA, lucky us.
you have to pull it out at the root
round up feather. or you can pull it and burn, but the smoke is dangerous.
i tried yanking on it, couldn't pull it!
and don't burn it--sends the offending stuffin the air...
they make good poison ivy killers, but you have to be careful not to get it on anything else
r's are finally roasted!
i'm afraid to do round up for two reasons: first, it's right over our well cap. like, 2 feet away. second, i don't want to hurt the peony.
soak the ground thoroughly, then pull, feather
i baked a potato, and then when i sliced it open, i put butter, salt, pepper, scallions, and mozz/provolone. then i shut it back up again for a few mins to melt the cheese and then sorta mushed it in and ate it.
it's RIGHT in the middle of the peony stems.
Go DR! I am on my last R--last ro6
oh....hursh, that sounds delish!
yummy Hurshy!!!
I know a few people who got poison ivy on their faces when neighbors burned poison ivy. No thanks.
Yummy, hurshy
I think feather you can kill it like I did my bamboo... cut it and then sort of inject the left over part with round up. less affecting of others, and less environmentally yuckky.
sounds yummy, hursh
Congratulations featherbee on fireworks! Good for U
Peony is a pretty hearty plant. i know cuz ours grows with neglect!
Yes you should not burn you can get it in your throat from breathing it. very bad.
i'm apparently not that susceptible to it. have been getting very mild red spotty rashes on my arm every time i weed in there, but nothing else. goes away within hours. my poor mother, on the other hand, had to go to the walk in to get steroids after she helped me weed!
course you need a needle to inject the PI.
Last ro6 please?
ro5.10 with sometimes vowel
An ro 6/24 is ro 5/10 plus sometimes vowel Scrabbler
Hi lbdawger! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
do not have needles laying about, sadly.
TY for that ro6. I don't feel bad for missing it.
we're getting a nice soaking rain all today, and tomorrow too. i'll have another tug at it tomorrow night.

Hi Min! i'm doing well, just had a baskin robbins, ice cream! yumm
Min, how is the bronchitis? is it all gone now?
Yes, I am sure it works for bamboo, but not sure about the ivy. You could I think buy diabetic needles at a drug store, Scrabbs do you need a rx for that??
I'm eating Chinese food now (beef with oyster sauce)
be careful, feather -- i have it all down the side of my leg . . . ugh
se5/18 help please
Yes, it's all gone. I am still taking nasal sprays though
You had it too, Min? I am recovering from a wicked cough too, Min.
FYI Roundup might zap your peony -- I accidentally got a little on an azalea last year and about half of it died back
I am not sure, Red.
i'm a lucky one who isn't affected too badly une! of course, that means i get to be the one to get rid of it.
se5: se + *** *** *** your boat gently down the stream.
se+ not columns but ****

going to go do FB games, then go to bed early. will do report cards in the morning.

hi everyone!
BRB, need to find me some grub for dinner. 26 to go. BRB
I saw your post the other day about your cough and I told you that I had bronchitis, but now it is gone (I hope). It started with allergies and went to my chest

Not in Clermont. in orlando, like 35 min away.
Hi harpjane! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
i would think florida would have lots of good sushi places
We do have a nice burrito place, however.
Clermont is like an old Orange Grove where a bunch of Peter Pan triatheletes live.
Back with a cream cheese sandwich, on oatmeal bread
lol Peter Pan triatheletes, good description
Scrabbler, do you have tomato on it? Where are you cruciferous veggies. I just love to say cruciferous.
Interesting description, red
must go look up cruciferous...
I am too lazy to make a real dinner, and I will go to bed soon, so no need to make a full meal.
I love living here, for that reason! THere are hills for training, a lot of organic foods, one tiki bar,
Oh and a tomato isnt cruciferous, sorry.
I like the word cruciferous too, and serendipitous

scrabbs: a place where dogs or horses compete.
Well, that's a very long life for a dog - and she was very healthy and problem-free, right up until very advanced age, when of course she went blind, deaf and incontinent - but what dog isn't, at that age?!
scrabs, sh8/9 thing you wear on your top half of your body + gerund then plural
