I was trying to keep my foot up on the good ol' accelerator
Well I'm leaving it behind now jill
ok, I'm closing the chat
And anyway yeah, the driveway is gravel so I was trying not to spin out
Then a while later someone went tearing out of the driveway to pick my sister up from the bus stop because the bus broke down
Hey all, better late than never (but only here for a few minutes)...

sorry about that
That is ok Zing i think youi hit the enter button too much
probably
Jill it is a pretty cake
I like your idea, herin, of keeping it up until sprite is back
I miss seeing her but I have been on odd hours
does anyone know anything about how to keep calm whilst performing on stage?

Hi MrsS
hi mrss

6 re words, 1 rh
ty. I'm missing one.
wat does bane mean?
MrsS, do you know about Lickety's list?
I really want rehat to be a word. Bane is the worst part of something, or the downside - "the bane of my existance"
thx
I used to know, but now I've forgotten - can your remind me?

Hi Ms
Oh! And now I've done it too. Sorry

aha! I finally finished the rs. When I asked before about ri's, it didn't occur to me to ask about rh!
Ok that is it back to to the grind stone. Take care
MrsS, scroll down to Friends of Babble and you'll see Lickety's Babble Clues. Right-click and open it in a new window. It gives the first 2 letters of each word, the nuber of letters in it, and the score.
TY!

Aha. Got it West - ty
how is your daughter hydra
***fireworks***
Yay jilli !!
congrats, jilli
She's away at one of her medieval reenactments. It's what she loves doing. I've bought her a new medieval hat!
yw sood
Well done, jilli!
those are so much fun hydra is she one of the characters or just attending?
yay jilli
She joins in. She has armour and joins in the battles, and she also tells fortunes in her medieval tent!
thanks, all -- any clues needed? (It is bedtime, but I can help for a bit)
how very cool
I need a clue for the et7 I think it is please
She is an excellent tarot reader. She does it on the phone. She has a website - www.psychic.devon.co.uk
in today's economy, i expect very poor would describe most fortunes
AIG is giving millions in bonuses again
She's never been so busy as she's been since the downturn started. Everyone wants to know if they'll keep their job, house, etc.
she gives them hope then
et6/21 is a gas, west -- there's no et7
thanks jilli
I'm sure he doesn, west
I meant, 'she does'. Oops!
had me wondering there lol
Citicorp (?) is giving 50% raises to their execs to make up for the lack of those bonuses. They should all be in jail.
I was starting on the r words and trying to type at the same time. Not a good idea. Cannot split brain at my age!
I agree with you, jilli.
wish she could read my fortunes or lack therof
well -- no clues needed? Have fun with the th words, heh heh
Email her and see if she can do you an email reading, Andree. I think she can.
thanks for the warning jilli or is mine the only one?
oh, and west, I see your icon IS a trombone
Oops, ten already. Must start work. Bye for now!
well google lied then lol
I thought it looked like one
there are a few others, west
always wondered what that word meant so I looked for an image and that's what came up
google said it was a make of them -- eponymous
I read some of the text in google
okay I like yours better he is very handsome
last 3 th words 6,9 and 7 please
I love yours, west -- so graceful!
ho
th6/24 -- th + as you sow, so shall you ****, and build on that
thanks jilli it looks good in my profile lol
Must go to bed -- 2 am here
I think I will too pleasant dreams jilli and good bye all
hope you got that th clue!
night west
thx jilli
ok, now I can go to bed, lol! Nightynight! *poof*
back later
hi everyone
looks like a tricky one
oh, i wish the grids had been swapped! from yesterday!
***clangs pots and pans, makes tons of obnoxious noise*** G'd Morning Babblers!
***WOW, deep sleepers or what?***
***tries the pity card and sits at the back of the room with a sad face***
Hi Lori!
lol, Mornin' neeta
:)
apologies
had other windows open
NP, I'm just shocked at how unusually quiet it is in here.
The other Babblers went to bed a little while ago.
Ahh, shift change.
Yeah.
How are you doing this morning?
Life is good. This grid is flowing much nicer than the evil grid of yesterday.
Really?
I'm a new Babbler, but I thought yesterday's was better.
Easier, I mean.
I should (in theory) do this list free. yesterday's was unpossible! :)
**Locked and loaded** Morning Lori ;) Hi neeta
Hi FM!
looks like Lori has run off :(
good morning all
Morning Eva and Merp
welcome to babble neeta, where in the world are you?
mrrp
India, FM.
And thanks!
any clues for the th9?
lol Eva nice one neeta, there are a couple of other babblers from India too. Can't help you Eva haven't started yet.
***whaps FM for no reason a't'all*** Mornin' FM, Ehva!
Yeah, I was initiated by another Babbler :)
violence so early in the morning!
peony
It was just a feather pillow.
sneaky move Lori!
Covered with tar.
I only popped in for a mo to say Hi and I thought you had disappeared.
With the feathers on the outside.
That's all.
*removes feather from hair* not a good look for the supermarket.
could create envy in the poultry aisle
Ata is stopping by tomorrow a.m on her way up to her Mums. LOL
just found the in8!
Pretend it's a fancy hat, like the Queen would wear!
Ooh, that'll be fab FM! Enjoy, and give her a hug from me and Uni!
Yea Ehva!
will do, it will be good to see her again before she heads off to the US
and the th9. which builds on the th6 and was one of those "this can't be a word, but I'll try it" ones
Have to run but will be back in about an hour. TTFN
lol Ehva, thanks for the nudge
Maybe catch ya' laters FM. ***hugs***
Byeee!
WOW! Got the 9. Muchos grassyass Ehva. Never woulda' got that voluntarily.....
don't know how you found it from what I said, but yw
It hasn't rained for two days in a row. I think that's the longest dry spell thus far this summer.
I looked for a stoopid not word 6 letter word lol
that's a large universe to whittle down
It's been exactly the same here Ehva, rain rain rain and more rain until now.
I guess we're part of the same northeastern weather system...I have to say I prefer it to 90's and humid, but if feels oddly like fall, and the garden is stunted.
And I don't think it will be good to head back into winter not having had summer.....we'll all get beri beri or something.
For awhile I thought I was gonna' mildew. There was no end in sight to the crappy weather
Good weather for mushrooms, mosquitoes, slugs, snails and earwigs.
Slugs! I've never seen as many slugs as I have this year.
I don't happen to be one of those, but have been thinking seriously about devolving
l o l
Do you know how hard it is to wash slug juice off of your hands?!!!
So, so gross......
but the earwigs are the worst!
such a cute name for something so degoutant!
***knocks on wood*** we've had a couple, and I do mean couple, but so far they've been pretty much absent.
18 left after the first sweep. Not bad, now the poopy part. :/
Hah! 17, forgot to extend ap 6 in to a 7
...and goth is too a word. :p
hmmm-how to make the 6 into a 7.....
First 2 letters of picnic pest
got it!
Yea for Ehva!
thanks!
We're even now... lol :p
Found my last g. G for gah.
Figured there might be a gy word, et voila!
I still have 39 to go....off to find the gy
gym or gynaecologist? :p
neither(-:
Want the point total? It'll pretty well give it
sure-I'm not proud
gy 6/42
Thanks! What the hell does that mean-do you think it's an alternate spelling of the j word?
I think. Just guessing though on my part
yup-just looked it up
almost time to go for a walk
Cool. Good to know for potential future use.
Hi
morning herin
and it can't be pluralized
Finally finished that bottom h. Gah
I always attempt to pluralize everything, just in case..... :)
okay-off to do something good for my body. see you later
Enjoy 'yer walk. Laters.
Hi again and bye Eva
Last s! That stoopid sp 5 I always miss
WB FM, what are you a speed shopper? :)
forgot that there was racing on today so rather than get delayed just got the necessities at the local store.
Prob'ally a wise move.
Missing an o. Will I hate myself?
and it's on tomorrow but as Ata is coming at the crack of dawn she will miss any race traffic. No idea, just about to start the grid.
Good, at least she'll miss the worst of the traffic.
sory i was distracted. One of my class mates high school friends was killed today, road accident
lol she will miss all of it as she is getting here around 8/8.30
You best have the tea on then. :)

bullying... take screen shots and keep records of every incidence. anything that constitutes a physical threat is actionable. inform appropriate authorities. if it is school kids, any use of a school machine to do the bullying should bee reported to the school and could result in loss of computer privilege which will get back to the parents and might result in suspension
May be back online in a couple of days
Bye herin
except..school is out for the summer it happened yesterday...no physical threats
stay off whatever website it happened on?
morning friends - suspending my nbt rule to ask carlee - what venue is the bully using? email, myspace, aim, FB?
facebook.?????
its on facebook....
what is the bully doing?
you can have your child un-friend the bully, after taking all the steps bonkler recommended. def. print out every single exchange, then unfriend or block the messages
report them Carlee you can report that person with a specific cut and past of it
and privacy settings should be set so that only friends can see the profile, much less post on wall.
if the bully is using a school facebook network to access your child, then it IS a school issue, whether school is in session or not
there the "gaggle of girls" that there is in every class... there are 2 girls that are "social outcasts"in the class for 2 diff reasons . ( My daughter NOT involved)
Point total anyone?
so those two girls are being targeted, then?
but the one girl cus is "neighbour kid" is on my friend list... so I am seeing the whole exchange courtesty of "new facebook"
how old are the kids?
you can set up a fake account in facebook to make sure that all privacy settings work. I have set mine up so you can only see my face and my name and wether you can add me as a friend
do you know the neighbor girls mom well enough to apprise her of this? she really and truly may not know it is happening.
the kids are about 12 ish ( going into grade 8 ) and they are RIPPING these 2 girls apart...socially...
1943 Lori
I've cut and pasted and emailed the exchanges to mum....
see you all in a couple of days
bye
yikes! what a hard age
Mercy Buckets!
oh, good for you carlee! that is an excellent place to start. offer her all of our suggestions, and I would have no problem letting the school know, summer or not
I was just wondering if anyone had some good advise that I can pass to mum if she should ask me...that all
do you know the girls, or just this one
bye herin!
oh..I know them both....I know them all...they all little bitches...
Bye herin. Sounds like you have done everything you can carlee.
Carlee privacy settings on facebook and making sure she doesn't have passwords that are common
is there maybe one in the group who seems nicer, less enthusiastic about the bullying?
The best defense against bullying, in my experience, is to ignore it, which takes serious self esteem. If I were you I would encourage your daughter to be nice to this girl and to try to stand up for her when it's appropriate
Though Facebook is stalking made easy, and adults and children alike are too free with access and info, bear in mind it's just oen avenue. Ending it on FB will not eliminate the mentality.
yes, but they are only bitches because they are testing waters, seeing where the boundaries are....they will kick and scream about getting found out, but really, they will learn a lesson here -- all of them -- about what is acceptable and what is not. The internet is new to them, and the perception of anonymity makes them feel more powerful and invisible than they are
Clues for he 6/21?
he 6, slang for 'yer butt!
If you know the parents of the offending girls, you could bring it to their attention also.
do you know any of the bully girls or their parents, their folks might like to know what they've been up to. also there was the case of the woman in the states who created an account to bully a kid who committed suicide and was charged and convicted. that case has been appealed. the idea that such behaviour might land them and their kids in court might help to get recalcitrant parents off the couch.
ummm...not really... ( and yes..she does.....she tries to hang out..but honestly has very little in common with her other then geography.....she lives 5 houses away....no similar interests at all..
i had a kid that i was tutoring at the school i used to work in, where all the boys in his dorm didn't like this one particular boy - they said he was alway
okay, carlee - but the important thing is for your daughter to stand up to any bullying, whether she is friends with the girl or not. That will a) send the general message that not everyone agrees with the opinions expressed by the bullies, and b) send the message that bullying is not okay
always being unpleasant to everyone and so they were unpleasant back
still stuck on he 6/21
so, i talked to the kid i knew and i encouraged him to just be super nice to this guy. every time he did something unpleasant, do something nice back.
mrs s - he +not out + two vowels
Im missing it too MrsS, if I find it I'll let you know
he 6, 'yer butt but sdpelt very vowel-ly :)
at last! thanks
he did, and then the other boys actually started to alter their reactions as well, and by the end of the year, they were actually good friends.
darn, been trying all the sp of that but obviously not that one, thanks.
rhymes with anotehr way of saying hot dog
wow, well done hurshy!!!
yw -- now I need to find NBT so I am not feel guilty about chatting
it only takes one person in the majority group to stand up and say no, let's do better.
very good hursh....
I imagine my daughter willhang with her today..I showed her what was posted...
i don't get it..she is a cute kid...and smart... no "different" then mine or anyone else's really...
you could also have the whole group over for a party and screen "mean girls"
has alot going for her....
op 4/6??
imagine a jewish wedding...
nah....my daughter doesn't really like any of the kids at school..she hangs with the "in crowd" by day but has way too many other interests to bother with them any other time...she just waiting for highschool to hang with her really good friends when they all at the same school together
I was going to say....greek cheers with oozo...( sp?)
are the girls in any summer activities? sometimes people like coaches can have a lot of impact on these things, you might enlist them as allies
oh, is it greek? i always get them mixed up
ty
no....our school district very odd... 1/2 the girls are from other side of city.....and are bussed in cus there no is school in that neighbourhood...
well, i think the main thing with bullying is that sometimes adults are only thinking about getting the behavior to stop by means of external punishments or controls, and there's really no reason why one can't aim for actually communicating with the kids and helping them learn empathy and improve as people.
og 4/6? I'm really struggling with the short words today
I agree hursh...
og+ 2 vowels
o ***, i'm sorry, i didn't mean to step on your toe
og4 is a router bit profile... popular for trimwork
well, i better hit the showers and get off to work - best wishes for a good outcome in this, carlee
ty
and there is an example of 3 very different ways of clueing :)
thanks hursh...and everyone else....
Bye hurshy!
bye FM :) and all :)
true enough fm.... true enough :)
and not a hook or a snake in sight *grin*
no "directions" either...
Time for lunch and then work. Happy Babbling.

thats awesome!
I assume she has been an "only child" for quite some time so getting along with the other cat is a big plus
it really is, I was very anxious about the cat situation. the only thing is that they eat different food. she does not like his. but he will eat anything
yes she has been an "only child" for 13 years and he has been an "only child" for 12 years. it is amazing how well they get along
hmmm a match made in heaven perhaps?
don't know about that :)
would like to find a match for me
my Missy gets along well with other cats but she gets very stressed when they are around and loses big clumps of hair from her tummy. Before we had Kittles put down she was nearly bald there

travel systems don't work for me .. can't find one my size
JBV...sounds like an awesome travel system you've got, too...
cute, BR...but just about anything with wheels would probably work.
not in a car
Well, I think I have a great travel system...it's called when they pay me enough to actually travel...

not trying to be slow or anything; what is an indefinite article?
not the
yes nan
last 2 letters of cyber's name, Pini ;)
Pinikula, you used the indefinite article in your post
the is definite, or specific, while the others are indefinite or generic
Donnhof, Fritz Haag, Willi Haag. JJ Prum,
thx stephie!
Kunstler
that will help alot, nan...thx
it took me a while to find it too
Fritz Haag is my favorite.
ty ruru -- are they blends or varietals?
THE article, is what you use to specify whether you are talking about A specific thing, AN entire range of things, or THE specific thing
that'll help it sink in, josh...
thx for your patience all
and just to make sure it sinks in, I'm going to take a break for a bit...back after a short nap
mmm -- I wonder how many teachers or retired teachers are here?!
take A break, A short nap, etc
sorry for bludgeoning the point, pini, but once you notice it it's hard to stop
I'm a teacher, but I teach math...don't know much grammar :)
no worries, josh...I'm afraid to find out, nan (I work at a uni with a bunch of language professors - one would think I would know this stuff)
now time... * poof *
I understand Stephie -- I taught language arts and music -- don't know much about math!

hi nrkii, how is the shoulder?
I think I reinjured it red... back to the surgeon this coming Thursday to see
I'm very annoyed... but I'm still going river tubing tomorrow
Oh no, are you in much pain?
for the first time in my life
not too much pain... it was bad Sunday and Monday, okay Tuesday/Wed... and it's been getting worse (stiffer and more achy) yesterday and today
I have a big walnut on top of my shoulder
Oh golly, sounds like time for some heat packs. Ouch.
well, small walnut now... was a big walnut Monday
my own stupid fault for thinking I could rake the lawn
nrkii, you need to hire some hot guy to do that for you!
or hire some hot guy to massage the shoulders
the E words are giving me fits... I have H****cliff and "looking at"... missing?
I only have one. the cliff one you have :(
ahhhh! have the looking at one.

hello babble friends. taking a break from breaking my house down
sledgehammering Trif?
Hi Trif, how is your finger?
just cleaning, but a sledgehammer and flamethrower would not be inappropriate -- esp primo's room, and Secondo's hideaway, aka "the crypt"
better red, thanks, looks like I am keeping the end of it, so that is good good good news!
yes I agree good news.
oh my, what happened to your finger???
i really suck at doing things left handed - should I have a stroke later in life, I am DONE FOR
crushed my right index finger, nrkii. it's not pretty, I don't recommend it.
I have to say Trif,my only blessing about my hand injury was that it was my left. Had it been my right I would be working an entirely different job right now.
And it does suck...like trying to use a can opener, or put o n a bra...
glad to hear that, red! Yes, bras are a particular challenge (insert joke from Tor here....), but the worst part has been doing dishes.
oh, btw red, I went to a seminar about finding jobs yest, and the speaker was singing the praises of local business women networking groups, toastmasters, and the like. have you/do you agree?
I used dish washer, as I had pins.nogetting i t wet forforever.
I also cut off all my hair, because i couldnt put i t in a pony tail....
ouch to both of you!
*wakes up* Huh? ..
nrkii, this was a while ago for me, my left hand is operational, ,but not as it used tobe, but Iamg rateful for a world class surgeon and Hand therapist...
lol tor - knew that would get your attention!
how does one crush a finger? car door?
paving stones -- i was, quite literally, between a rock and a hard place
Oooow trif.
wow, I'm glad I asked... I'm accident prone, and I just helped a neighbor with their paving stones a few weeks ago
yeah, that's pretty much what i said
I fell while running so nrkii, you just have to sit still...
I'm much more likely to do something with a car door though... when I'm not paying attention... or slam the trunk down on my hand... stupid accidents are more my style
haven't been out to the pond since - should prob check on the fish. bit of an abuse situation really
anyway, red -- do you have an opinion on business networking groups?
Fish will be fine, lots of bugs.
I am hesitant to attend, since I have no job and present, and precious little idea of what I would do if I had one
at present, even
trif, I really don;t know much about those things, given my job....
okay, thanks -- just sort of threw it out there
Trif, I don't think you need to have a job to feel comfortable in one of those groups... but you do need to know what you're "positioning yourself" as
someone else, Lurkerz? Torgie?
I have a few friends who have been in toastmasters, and they loved it
so, i am guessing "clueless" wont' gain me much traction then, eh? I thought maybe it would be good for me to listen to the other women there, to get a sense of what seems exciting, or sparks an interest in me
good point Trif, that might prove helpful
that and I am lazy -- maybe someone would meet me and be so enchanted with me they would know a job I was just perfect for, and boom, problem solved. could happen.
Don't know much about it, but any kind of networking will usually be helpful in some way ..
help with my missing O... I have og, op, ot
it could happen, Trif... lol
missing an op mrkii
nrkii
thanks Trif!
think greeks drinking
yes!
or, chicago's fave talk show hostess, w/out a cons
trade for an h -- have 12 out of 13---where is that little bugger hiding?
shoot, I have to get this thing finished soon... company coming in an hour, and I haven't finished cleaning
Are you looking for a job trif?
i think so, red, yes
Trif, did you get the Georgetowners? ho4/7
Have you read an older book, "What color is your parachute?" its a helpfulbook for "clueless"people.
yes -- my parachute is many clueless colors. also tried "the pathfinder"
Oh goodness.
Well, go for the one that makes the most cash that you are qualified for, or can get qualified for quickly.
ooh that is the one I am missing nrkii! well done you! now to find it....how embarrassing to miss a 4!
(he he he, thats how I became a Nurse.)
nursing would be an amazing option for me here in massachusetts, where they are desperate for them, but I have NO skills or inclination in that area, unfortunately. Apparently it skips a generation -- BOTH my parents are doctors!
------------->pondering the sound of falling in everyone's esteem
No issue, trif, its a very difficult job at times, I am so grateful these days that I did it, given the economic times.
Because you aren't inclined to be a nurse? Silly ..
but there are days I would not wish it on anyone.
no way Trif
ha ha ha...anyway, have to run and collect tertiare from rec camp. last day already -- boy that week flew! BBL to bury last 40. moochas smoochas!
Drive safe Trif, glad you get to keep all of the finger!
bye Trif!

Good evening fellow Babblers. Back for a second shot...
I only need 15 but it feels impossible.
hey, soodlebum :-)
Hi there Une!!
At first glance, this looked like a nice gentle grid - but its proving otherwise.....
BUT Torchwood is scrambling my brain too!
Holy Moses! Another Torchwooder. I just can't wait to see this programme.. Ata had a pic as her icon, which seriously tickled my fancy. U a fan as well, Pat?
I watched a couple last year but I was not able to see it all. However, this week every night at 9 I.ve been glued to the screen (and trying to Babble). It's good but not my normal viewing. So, you learn something new about yourself all the time. My second childhood perhaps?
What station is it on Pat?
here it's on BBC America
BBC1 in the UK
bbc one in uk
gothien
feckit. we only get BBC NI here. - I'm sure I'll find it on one of the satellite stations.
I'll be back when it's over. Sorry!
know any words
Is anybody left out there in Babble land, or is everybody watching Torchwood?
i'm here! :-)
going to the list with 20 to go . . .
Thought I was the only one left on the planet, Une!!! I'm at 12 to go, and resisting the list.
Aww the good guys won. Don't tell my kids I watched it, I'll lose the moral highground, ie 'why are you watching this rubbish?' etc etc.
:-D
*sigh*
For all the good staring at this stupendously difficult grid will do I might as well watch the lousy news!
howdy, ata :-)
Ata.... I take it the sigh is a wistful 'oh he's gorgeous' sigh'?
he's a complete sod, and a wuss, and a coward, and yes, he's gorgeous
Ain't they all, Ata, Aint they all?
wait. can't say that in case ppl haven't watched it. grr!
Wish I turned the news off, my stomach turned over - 8 more soldiers dead in Afghanistan. I can't bear it. Where next?
Oh no. Is my 'woman scorned-side' showing? I'm not quite as bitter as I sound. Lol. :)
this grid is starting to irk me
hello all! ((hugs soodle))
howdy stid
CROSS!!!! (((((many hugs))))) is it as lovely and sunny for you as it is for us? after a week of gray cold drizzle...
so the grid is not exactly friendly? should i start or wait for tomorrow?
it is a picture perfect summer day;)
yep. same here. and I am spending most of it inside. *shrug* oh well, tomorrow should be lovely, too.
it's fine, stiddy
Hey stid. I needed that hug. Thank you!!
okay ata, how many can I get in five minutes? *starts stopwatch and jumps in*
lots!

80%
LOL cross!
Right I need 9 x th. th4 th5/16 th6/27 th6/21 th5/12 and the last 2 x th4 th4 AND te6

ooh, hawaiian goose without a clue! LOL
all th words it seems;(
go, stiddy!!
Pat the 9 th = th + what the farmers are doing when they are cutting the crops.
Some of my words kept vanishing. It's a while since that happened and boy is it frustrating and convinces youi that you're going mad.
I hate when that happens, pat. so frustrating
I got the hard th words but not the smaller ones. I feel really stupid when a grid does this to me
always happens!
oh! got an 8!
ogin
well, I guess that's five minutes or so. up to 39 words.
oging
now to wait for the stidkid to get out of the shower so we can go
did it work, pat?
lol pat is working the monkey
See I've lost it that was supposed to start with S. Sorry
evening all (((((stiddie)))) twice in a week, I am lucky!

Hi Sprite. How are you - post birthday?

So how has everyone been? I have been working even harder these days -- my service center has had to lay off several people due to the economy
out of shower as in elvis just left the building? Or as in used up all showers?
did Spangle go into raptures?
were you on holiday Haz?
oh dear, woulf -- not again?
Spangle was pleased, but didn't go as mad as she used to when she was younger. Daughter 1 looked after her so she was in the old routine.
how awful, Woulf, but glad you are still employed
Soodle - away in France for a few days.
awwwwwww
Unfortunately, yes, sprite -- but I think this will be the last time -- we are using this as an opportunity to retrain and refine the people we have left
I'm giving up. Got to find two cats, make the dog have a pee - outside of course. I need coffee to wake my brain AND my hubby will be late home from cricket - hungry, bless him. Don't think I'll get back to finish! Boo hoo!
Hobbit can't move. She had an 8 mile walk this mortning :)

sprite I can relate to health it is tough when my 83 yr. old mom is better than me LOL
Yeah -- it is a bit scary how the time has flown by -- soon I am going to have to get another computer so the kids can play Babble too!
I know the feeling, speed :) We have this saying in dutch: Old, stiff and not even 80.
at least you have the priorities right, Woulf :)
8-D
will the economy effect special ed in Mass, speedfreak?
Fireworks from here!! Woo Hoo!!!
wtg Soodle!
any clue for he 6/21?
enjoy every second GW mine are 20 and 22 and I can still remember the fun!!! my 20 yr. old had his wisdom teeth out yesterday (all 4) so I have been babying him all day
wtg soole
congrats, Soodlebum
aw poor kid. But lucky for him he has a great mum.
Yayyyy for Soodle!!!
he 6 -- disparaging term for a German soldier; posterior; or haircut
looking, kfreman, don't have it yet
Thank you guys!! Kfre - he6/21 - an americanism for your rear-end, or a World war 2 soldier
thx
Doing my best, speed -- work has been too frustrating lately -- makes me feel like I am shorting the kids with the hours I have been working
missed you on your birthday. ... sprite.. I hope you had a great one.. happy belated birthday
thanks Soodle
thanks ruru and yes it was perfect :)
It is tough GW I was very lucky when my boys were young my husband shipped out so I was able to stay home (he missed out on a lot) and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Too many parents have to work and I think the kids do suffer for it
My work here is done. Before I go - can I be of any help to anybody?
I need my lawn mowed soodle..
thanks Soodle, I am ok, happily plodding along
Ruru - lead on....point me to the ride-on
ruru I will mow lawn if you wash my floors
At least mom gets to stay home with them, and my weekends are usually reserved for them -- this weekend is a very rare exception to that
they are lucky to have one of you full time!!
I think you are doing fine with them, Woulf, together.
so far so good, sprite -- thanks for the vote of confidence
teamwork... it will pay off. Promise.
at school we have a before school program and parents drop their children off at 6:30 am and they stay at school till 6:00 at night that would make me insane but I understand if both have to work.
if there is no ot5 way, it is a good solution. But I am very glad we have the possibilty to be home for and with the kids a lot.
speed -- I do take advantage of the before school program, mainly to simplify things because we only have one car -- so I drop Kristianna off on my way home from work, and pick her up at the end of the day
note to self: there is no hyena.
Now, much as I have been enjoying our time here, I need to go for now -- it is our weekly eat out night and we have to figure out where we are going.
sure there is -- just not where you are looking
ah I should have known. Sneaky animals.
{{{{****HUGS*****}}}} for everyone -- I will be back later to find my last 70
enjoy, Woulf, and take care. *hugs*. It was great to see you again!
sprite I have typed in threat like 3 times!!!! It is not there Bye GW great to see you again
happy belated BD. sprite!
lol yeah that one too!
hey kje, thank you :)
change the last consonant, speedfreak

I certainly did, Towl, thanks
good! see you later!
bye TOwl!
is Terra's coat still molting and changing color, sprite?
it is, BabbleRabble. Part is almost white now. It is like his face is growing through the molt, it is so funny. I comb him every day now to get the old stuff out.
awww lovely Terra!
I will make more pics this week and put them on flickr. Will even try to get some of him in motion... it is just that he is soooo quick!
oh what a great pa8.

RTH!!!
Ardilla! How is everything the turtles? the ankle?
well...the ankle is getting better...one more week of non-weight bearing
I heard there was a turtle issue....
the turtles...well...the larger one attacked kawaii and i had to bury him to spare him further suffering
i released the larger turtle in the wild to spare her life since she was too violent to keep anymore
Oh sad, butprobably along hte natural order of turtles...
no more turtles?
so, i'm currently pet-less
time for fish!
it's still too hard to see the aquarium and knowing that my little one is gone...maybe i'll get another little one later...but it's still too painful
maybe...once i can drive on my own again
Ooooh sorry ardilla. pets are hard.
You may borrow my dog, but hes no fun when you cant bear weight.
thx rth *hug

I ran, then I had a good swim, beautiful weather, nice nap,good food, no one hassling me about homes and such.
yogo, right across from the words "Word Stats" it shows # of words left
the 6 end in a double vowel jmc
yogo, if you have been playing for more than 2 weeks, you will not have a stats box which would tell you that.
do you see below the word list the box with the words and pts?
ty forward got it
yes
have you been playing more than two weeks?
I have not been playing for more than 2 weeks
okay then look below that box and do you see the words in blue saying Word stats?
Yogo there is a number beside the word LEFT, that will tell you how many you have left...
All it says is 26 words 4.42 248pts
sounds like a great day, red!

Are you going to be on broadband anytime soon, Silverback?
May I please have a clue for po7-36? Thanks

Word Racer is actually similar to this grid . . .
I think I used to play word racer, a long while ago...

I have a question - can you freeze cottage cheese?
whoo hoo fireworks!
YAY JM
congrats jmc
Congratulations jmcnrick on fireworks! Hooray for U
huzzah for jmc!!!
E's executed! 10 left
wtg jmc
you can freeze cottage cheese but it would be mush coming out.
I would only freeze it in a dish like lasagna where the texture wouldn't make much difference
Well, it's pretty much mush going in, too
jmc - that's what I thought - too bad.
go min!
if you freeze fairly dry cottage cheese it might be okay
got a large import of cottage cheese from the states?
go minver goo go go
cottage cheese always makes me wonder - how did the person who invented it know they were done?
We get a really good one (at one store only) but it comes in a pretty big tub so ussually half of it spoils.
Time for me to sign off. Thanks again for the help. Bye!
