1:06 am

oh, my other daughter came over for dinner last night, brought me the most gorgeous roses that I had to leave with Sandy, they would not have made the 6 hour trip

1:07 am

rest well helen

You're welcome, mlf, but must quit! Good luck, all.

1:07 am

I did take a picture though, will download tomorrow and put it in icon

1:07 am

oh too bad flosey hope you took a picture

1:07 am

flosey should we make you go to the PB?

1:07 am

well done helen

1:08 am

lol, I'd fall asleep mlf

1:08 am

if you had brought them home with you you'd have been mistaken for a celebrity

1:09 am

flosey would that be a bad thing?lol

1:09 am

they really were lovely

1:09 am

not really, mlf, but would rather be in bed

1:10 am

not going to make it to 1/2 way

1:10 am

what a shame you couldn't keep them!

1:10 am

flosey yeah youdont want to hurt your computer lol

1:10 am

if you had flown how much less time would it have taken flosey?

1:11 am

ah west, I'd be home, door to door, within an hour

1:11 am

okay i have 204 left i am out poof

1:11 am

wd mlf

1:12 am

that's pretty fast but the ferry ride must have been relaxing

1:12 am

good night ML

1:12 am

flosey, did you make the ferry connection?

1:12 am

but it's expensive, west, the ferries allow seniors (over 65s) to travel free Monday to Thursday (unless Monday is a holiday)

1:13 am

yes jilli, with a few minutes to spare

1:14 am

the flight to downtown vancouver is over $90 one way.

1:14 am

that's a good deal

1:14 am

the ferry not the plane

1:14 am

sure is west

1:14 am

I love being on the water

1:14 am

I just take something to read or a crossword puzzle

1:15 am

flosey, take your laptop and you can babble all the way, lol!

1:15 am

and if I travel at mealtime, they have a good diningroom, buffet style

1:15 am

that's great

1:16 am

I'd find the laptop too heavy to carry, Jilli, along with suitcase

1:16 am

an iPad would be perfect lol

1:16 am

don't you check the suitcase, flosey?

1:17 am

stats for the p please for nbt

1:17 am

Jilli, I book the bus from terminal to Central and they pick me up there - some bus drivers will take your suitcase to the bus, some wont

1:18 am

ursh, see my icon clue :)

1:22 am

1:23 am

if you start the ho words jilli, you'll get one quickly

1:23 am

I have the first 3, flosey -- also watching the news ;)

1:23 am

2:07 am

it's the rulovution

2:07 am

hi ruby it's great so far..lots of real words

2:08 am

are you enjoying your son and dil?

2:09 am

he and his wife shoveled out my studio yesterday. I helped but the 3 of us spent hours. There were enough cobwebs (and some live spiders) to hide a large animal!

2:10 am

how nice to have the help

2:10 am

But we found some of my long-buried treasures. Unfortunately, he is a hard-a** taskmaster and was very directive (hah ha you might say!)

2:10 am

there were 11 years of accumulated "stuff"

2:11 am

sounds like it will be well worth it

2:11 am

Today, he will make me organized my 1000's of photos

2:11 am

oh no that would have me running away screaming

2:11 am

he and DH are out for a walk, so I can jump into this yummy grid for a little while

2:11 am

can he stop in RI on his way home and do mine?

2:11 am

the spiders or my son?

2:11 am

hi ruby

2:11 am

and mine too

2:11 am

They built a house of the beach

2:48 am

2:49 am

Sprite?

I hope she shows up -- last seen here at 2:51

Babbler since 2005

3:03 am

*scrolls back* Looks like she is a pro, bound to be back here some time.

3:03 am

3:03 am

hi sprite

3:04 am

3:04 am

I'm fine, sprite, thanks.

3:05 am

3:05 am

3:05 am

I agree.

3:05 am

Thanks, sprite.

3:05 am

I just rose from mine, west, at 10 in the morning! Lazy me. I hope you sleep as well as I did :)

3:06 am

I am trying to remember your babblet icon, jilli. Very glad for that clue, I am certain it is one of those that I always forget.

3:07 am

we had a theme for a similar word, totally different meaning.

3:07 am

oh there it is! From your brain to mine, no doubt. Thanks.

3:08 am

lol!

3:08 am

i do so agree, did not realise there was still a lingering problem, i am not on much so what would I know

3:08 am

have you noticed how many H words there are?

3:08 am

whattttt 81?

3:08 am

81!! awful , I only have 45

3:08 am

eh no, I had not. Woot.

3:08 am

I know, Andree, you're letting work get in the way of babble, aren't you?

3:09 am

sprite they could be k's

3:09 am

Had to go cut some papers in tiny strips for the school next door :)

3:09 am

3:09 am

Do you guys play start to finish or just off and on during the day?

3:09 am

<--- passes around smelling salts

3:09 am

hello Daily Dog

3:09 am

lol I don't think I do either

3:09 am

Hi Sprite

3:09 am

3:10 am

It depends from day to day, Daily.

3:10 am

off and on for me, daily

3:10 am

I have been haz but am now organised and even nearly finished yesterdays

3:10 am

unless it's really small and easy (rare)

3:10 am

I try to get as many as I can first go round never seem to make it back

3:10 am

jilli told me you speak Dutch, Daily Dog. That is pretty rare here... love it!

3:11 am

Well done, Andree! So much nicer when you feel organised and able to do the puzzle with clear conscience.

3:11 am

daily i have a ton of paper in my shredder

3:11 am

good job Andree

3:12 am

yup, I'm from the Flemish side of my ludicrous country.

3:12 am

I have a ton of paper which should go in the shredder I bought months ago but haven't taken out of the box yet.

3:12 am

former country

3:12 am

from Belgium? Such nice people there!

3:12 am

why ludicrous, daily?

3:13 am

that reminds me husband brought a shredder too and it's still in it's box

3:13 am

What do you do with the shredded parts?

3:13 am

burn baby burn?

3:13 am

i use them in my compost

3:13 am

we'll recycle them

3:13 am

we take them to recycle

3:14 am

oh good idea !

3:14 am

my compost is theoretical

3:14 am

serious grid question: the little equine-loooking animal that lives in the ocean, isn't that a s**ho***?

3:14 am

we'll miss the recycle being pick up curb side in Maine we have to get a sticker for the dump

3:15 am

yes, and it doesn't count. Go figure.

3:15 am

it is sprite and it's not fair

3:15 am

I'm try to teach people here to compost :). Great joke.

3:15 am

its 2 words i think sprite

3:15 am

am baffled

3:15 am

We have to take everything to the recycle depot here.

3:15 am

must be separate words sprite

3:15 am

3:15 am

"one always teaches best what one needs most to learn"

3:15 am

4:51 am

hi Rose! nice for a Friday night

4:51 am

hey spritey...and lyn.

4:52 am

I haven't seen for ages Rose. How are those legs?

4:53 am

Good day everyone.....it's a monster today!!!!

4:53 am

hi MM

4:53 am

Just like Mr. F. Krueger!!!!

4:53 am

hey movie my man! A friendly monster though!

4:54 am

holding up pretty well, thanx lyn. work has decided the 10 hour shifts aren't really in my best interests. did my last one today for a few more months..going onto 3 x 8 hours and 1 x 6 hour until august.

4:55 am

oh that is good news, Ro4.

4:56 am

well, if you wake up in the AM. and it takes you 20mins to mobilise, i think that's a pretty good indicator that 10 hours is to long.

4:56 am

way too long

4:56 am

That sounds better! 10 hours is too long for anyone. And what happened to your hail damaged car Rose? and has grandchild no 2 appeared yet?

4:56 am

hey MM

4:56 am

ooooh, lots of news

4:57 am

picked up new toyota yaris past friday, it's red and a dream to drive

4:57 am

Wow! (who was that person who wanted to keep her old car!)

4:58 am

Claudia was born at 10.55 today, all 11lbs 8ozs of her

4:58 am

11 lbs 8 oz? She's half reared already, as they'd say here. Congratulations!

4:58 am

Ro4, such wonderful news! Welcome to the new world citizen Claudia. And glad you enjoy your new car.

4:58 am

Hooooorrrraaaayyyy!!! Congratulations all. Beautiful name - but what a monster!

4:58 am

natural delivery, and lucinda and bub will be coming home tomorrow

4:59 am

i'm ecstatic....first girl for 23 years on my side of the family

4:59 am

Claudia is such a delicious name.

5:00 am

had to make kgs of that... quite a grand dame!

5:01 am

umm....haven't been told if there is a second name yet. son, simon, was away in fairyland when he phoned...so didn't press him.

5:01 am

I can 't think of babies in kilos. I don't think anyone can here

5:02 am

it is all we know and use, lyn, here.

5:03 am

but for babies, we usually say how many pounds.

5:03 am

congrats to grannyrose...XXXX, our youndest g/son was 10lb 110zs and we thought he was a monster...LOL

5:03 am

* grin * but it still makes my eyes water to think what lucinda must have gone through.

5:03 am

We're kind of a mxture here - children are taught in metric, adults think in imperial.

5:03 am

youndest = younGest

5:03 am

(and a pound is half a kg... not your pound)

5:03 am

diz, i'm sp proud of Lu, what an amazing young woman she is!!!

5:04 am

or 1 kg = 2.2 lbs

5:05 am

Sprite - so you say pound for half a kilo - in everyday use?

5:05 am

yes, 1 kilo = 2 pond

5:05 am

granny, dtr had a 9lb 10ozs then 10lb 11ozs...both au natural...(legs crossed here)

5:06 am

LOL, diz, know what you mean!!!!

5:06 am

*remembers... ouch*

5:07 am

i managed to squeeze out a nine pounder, but that was my limit!!!!!

5:08 am

lyn, we also use the word 'ons' which is 100 gram, 1/10 of a kilogram. One pond = 500 gram. But pond and ons aren't official measures.

5:09 am

What joy. THe middle of May and we're having hailstones.

5:09 am

Did Holland ever use imperial measures Sprite?

5:10 am

crazy weather, Haz. Today we have sun, I hope it will stay good for a while now.

5:11 am

It's mad, isn't it? Oh well, summer has got to come eventually.

5:11 am

winter was late too, and was intensely wintery. Let's hope summer will be very summery and long.

5:11 am

no lyn, we never did.

5:12 am

We'll live in hope, should we die in despair.

5:12 am

yeah I prefer hope. If I have to be proven wrong, let it be about being optimistical and not pessimistical.

5:13 am

Just optimistic or pessimistic, no need for al at the end.

5:14 am

oh ok, thank you!

5:14 am

No problem!

5:14 am

BBS going to take a back break

5:15 am

enjoy the break, lyn. I say goodbye to you already then, am almost done

5:15 am

See you later, lyn.

5:15 am

do you know this one: "The optimist believes we are living in the best world possible. The pessimist fears that is true."

5:16 am

Very clever!

5:17 am

sprite, g/dtr wants to know if you are from the Netherlands...she has been at my side commenting on the different flags and naming countries.

5:17 am

yes, a smart loop!

5:17 am

I am, dizgrannie. Born and raised.

5:18 am

thanx, sprite,

5:18 am

if you click somewhere on this page and mouse-over the flag, it should tell you from which country it is, btw.

5:22 am

*and waves hi to your granddaughter*

5:24 am

thanx sprite, she's 9 1/12 and lurvs helping me out.

5:25 am

a smart lady!

5:25 am

hi Mom and Uniquity

7:14 am

big grid today

7:15 am

a fast one though.

7:15 am

One good thing about giant grids is that you get lots of words quickly at first. Then you hit the wall. Or at least I do. I've got 77 so far.

7:15 am

but there are 81 H words today, 49 S words

7:15 am

that is true Uni

8:46 am

Today's surreal moment: We just had an Elvis impersonater (not in costume) come into the Police Dept. and ask the Chief if they wanted to sign him up to sing at any Police or other charitable benefits.

8:47 am

ok, i am off to work

8:47 am

The chief said, "Thank you. Thank you very much, but, not thank you."

8:47 am

have a great day everyone

8:47 am

good day, wavers!

Judi, that is, errr, special, did he look like Elvis out of costume?

8:47 am

Bye waver. Good luck with the finals!

8:47 am

bye waver

Bye Wavers.

8:48 am

Yes, Red. Mutton chops, big gut. I'm sorry, but I think Elvis impersonaters are pathetic.

http://tinyurl.com/ylrg55w This one with steam punky?

Judi did you giggle

8:49 am

There was an Asian Elvis impersonator at a restaurant we were in in Phuket - we thought that was really amusing

8:49 am

i had to pour,the regular person for that table was too nervous to present it and pour it out lol

12:12 pm

12:12 pm

i tell all the kids,no matter how much money is involved,they all put their pants on just the same at the start of the day lol

12:13 pm

nope not a drop

12:13 pm

not often you see that vintage lol

12:13 pm

OMG how much money do you need to have to be able to spend $400 on one bottle of wine

12:13 pm

$400 at least

12:13 pm

enough for the 900 dollar dinner that went with it lol

12:14 pm

20% of $1400 = $280 tip

12:14 pm

And did they tip well?

12:14 pm

and 2 servers(one of which i replaced cause she was in the kitchen shaking lol) i tell them it is only money lol

12:15 pm

they tipped 50 dollars each server

12:15 pm

sorry only $1300 so $260

12:15 pm

YOU WERE ROBBED!

12:15 pm

12:15 pm

OK, that's PATHETIC. What losers!

12:15 pm

Returns to the chat.

12:17 pm

it's not seehorse, so I don't 'see' what you mean. Katie!

12:33 pm

the e at the end is also the e in sea

12:33 pm

It makes the word, as you use one of the e's from the bottom line.

12:33 pm

no--start at the top and work down

12:34 pm

That's still fine.Plenty of spare e's!

12:34 pm

1:33 pm

which had*

1:33 pm

and was full of cobwebs plus some live spiders

1:33 pm

I found many treasures but I'm afraid he thinks I'm nuts

1:33 pm

Oh - you will have to work out with him how to copy the CD so we can buy it.

1:34 pm

yes, we are talking about that, but I haven't ordered any yet

1:34 pm

did you hear the second song he put up on his site?

1:34 pm

We have had some heavy rosts the last few days - *shakes head in re when spring will come*

1:35 pm

Yes i did ruby loved that too

1:35 pm

*frosts not rosts!

1:35 pm

frosts? that's terrible. I think my tomato plants will rot, not produce

1:35 pm

rost sounds like Austrian potatoes

1:36 pm

1:36 pm

the local wisdom is not to plant vegetables before 13 May, but this year?????

1:36 pm

Who nows I am def hanging back from planting anythign out for at leat another 10 days or so.

this is an incredible grid,; I think it's the biggest one since I started playing last Dec

1:38 pm

clue for the second si 5/10

1:38 pm

what's funny for me is that with all this rain, I neglected to water all the stuff in the window boxes

1:38 pm

Big grid can be fun but also wear you down after a while due to the sheer number of words!

1:39 pm

yes, and if you walk away for a while, it's hard to remember what you already entered (or, rather, what I already entered. Duh)

1:39 pm

there is only 1 x si5/10 and its the pl of the 4

1:39 pm

pb fm

1:40 pm

Was that someone else?

ahhh. june. My CD comes due. I'm going to max out the one Roth and leave it.

3:59 pm

in another CD???

no no, leave the maxed out roth doing it's rothy thing.

the CD I think I will do either indexed funds or Maybe just buy some more clorox stock.

THen roll over my 2 403B's into a new 403B from my new job, which has matching.

4:01 pm

ooo matching is good make sure you max out every year

4:01 pm

why clorox?

I have a lot of it, a gift from my Great Grandpa and since I have had it for 39+ years, it has been a very good performer. started out at 1Cent shares now sells for about 67.00

4:02 pm

ah with that basis you wouldn't want to sell it for sure

4:03 pm

Evening all.

yes, I really can not sell. He Gave it to Me even before my Mom was pregnant with me, so I feel a little mystical about it....

4:03 pm

Hi Peach!

4:04 pm

Nah, not hardly.

4:08 pm

4:11 pm

another half million in the bank and I can retire

4:12 pm

Hey y'all. I just must tell you that my 72nd birthday was Wednesday....the couple next door (lovely people) got together with five more friends and took me to my favorite restaurant for dinner. Now, mind you, I have made most of these friends since I moved back to GA. I was awed....the love (energy) was so wonderful....we closed the place. I know there are some wonderful people in the world and I am so blessed. And I count you all as "friends".

It will get figured out, we always seem to do that.

4:12 pm

don't say that jmc, it makes me nervous - I have nowhere near that but we are going to make it work

4:12 pm

whoo hoo late happy birthday peach!

4:19 pm

4:20 pm

I hoep I dont know the stalker. Tell me he did not go to Westtown.

4:20 pm

you are kidding me. I'm a quaker

4:20 pm

no no he did not

we quakers seem to like word games.

4:21 pm

4:23 pm

infiltrating silently.

4:24 pm

cool

4:25 pm

So there are yearly meetings?

4:25 pm

i am a convinced Friend myself but i tossed my husbands ashes under the rose bushes at the meeting house

4:25 pm

I think there are meetings every Saturday there.

4:25 pm

our hierarchy is that monthly meetings (churches) belong to yearly meetings

4:26 pm

How do I find out?

4:26 pm

quakerfinder.org

the yearly meeting is generally to conduct business of a regional group of meetings, not like a reunion,

4:27 pm

it meets on sunday morning at 9:30

4:27 pm

thanks so much

BUt...it can be a lot like a reunion as you see people you have know.

errr known.

4:27 pm

it is sorta a conference with a business meeting attached

Everyone once in a while we had it when I was in school, and the headmaster used to freak out because we always managed to be horribly behaved during it.

4:28 pm

lol quaker kids are terrors

I mean, we did not attend all the business sutff, but they held some of the meetings at the school.

When I look back, JMC, I was rather bad. the kids that were really "into" Quakerism generally were fairly good kiddos.

4:29 pm

the kids come to meeting once or twice at our yearly meeting and do a skit

4:29 pm

lol i love being around quaker kids

4:30 pm

i teach the HS first day school at my meeting from time to time

I think you would have dislike me jmc...I was in trouble a lot there, but....

you have seen my Mom and Dad, soooo you know.

4:30 pm

4:31 pm

4:31 pm

weekends will be better for me in another month or so - still struggling with the not smoking thing - but hanging in there red

5:50 pm

or5.12 or & r*** a book

you are doing great

5:51 pm

reading doesnt cut it - computer stuff takes my mind off it but fighting 2 kids for one computer - tough going

5:52 pm

Yes I am doing great - big strong urges but getting through them - so in 3 more months you guys will be talking me through a diet OK?

does your library have computers?

5:52 pm

yes but their hours suck

5:53 pm

I am spoiled here... my hubby is a computer engineer so we all have computers

5:53 pm

town library closes at 6pm - barely get home from work at that time - need something to keep mind occupied after supper.

5:54 pm

We have 2 computers now - if I can only find a way to get internet on both without costing a fortune, I will do that - ask hubby for me??? please???

5:54 pm

how do you connect to the internet?

5:54 pm

do you have cable, dialup...

5:55 pm

through our local phone company - DSL

5:55 pm

do you have wireless Momneeds

5:55 pm

no wireless

5:57 pm

I personally don't know much about dsl... do you have a cable that comes from the wall to your computer?

5:57 pm

it comes through the phone line into a DSLmodem box

5:58 pm

I would have to get another box at $49 month to hook to other computer - that wont happen

5:58 pm

hmmm... is there only one space on the modem box to connect to?

5:59 pm

You can get a wireless modem for DSL

6:00 pm

yes and our cable company is even more for theirs

6:00 pm

I will have to check into that lynxxx - dont know if that is available in this area - I live in the woods

6:02 pm

I have to get supper ready - bbl - have fun all

do you have Cox cable mom? I do, one modem, one desk top a a wireless router to run the laptops from

one monthly fee

didn't realize she left....

hare

sorry

see this is why I should only lurk and not chat

but you need to reveal the 74 i am missing....:)

you are way ahead of me.....208 to go I won't stay awake long enough to finish

6:08 pm

i can clue for a few minutes

maybe for red, but don't stick around for me, although I appreciate the offer

6:10 pm

k. i'll be here for about 5-10 minutes, then back again later.

i dont have the li** feather, but you could clue the nine.

were you ladies around, I think it was Wednesday? there were these two gals one had like 80 left and one was given the other clues for every word she was missiing?

soooooooooooo annoying I finally logged out of babble

glad to have missed that. I could probably name the ladies needing the 80.

6:11 pm

yeah, saw that

6:11 pm

scrolling to find the 9, lol. big li4.

6:11 pm

Yeah, hid the chat

6:11 pm

ah, there we go. re8,9 combo. something that strikes a chord with you.

6:11 pm

omg! how did i miss a biotch joining our ranks?

6:11 pm

hi kids (coming out of lurk mode to say, yeah, i saw that too ... amazing, particularly when there was a list that day)

ooooh thanks!

ok, so it wasn't just me....

i have seen it happen, can never figure why the cluers so kindly keep cluing, and people like that usually ask for spelled out clues.

6:13 pm

(((((nutty)))))) hiya!

nut!!!

6:13 pm

whaddup herbinator???

welki hi!

I wish there was a way to chat with one specific person at a time I would've made comments to the folks who are here all the time

6:13 pm

i'll do a modified version of it for say a 12 year old who is obviously trying, and being polite, yet struggling.

6:13 pm

redziiiiii! how you is cookie?

6:13 pm

herbinator, lol. the antithesis to weed.

6:13 pm

Ok home made pizza in oven - looking back on chat

6:13 pm

me too, red ... why bother if all you do is ask someone else for the words?

6:14 pm

hi Nut

redz is good, hows nut?

6:14 pm

Lady - we have comcast cable up here but its alot of $$$$

6:14 pm

i was tempted, too, lady ... but they seemed to be having a good time of it, so i hid the chat

6:14 pm

weed is so silly, you're no weed! weeds are everywhere and unwanted...that is the opposite of you. original and appreciated!

6:14 pm

hey lynxxxxy

6:15 pm

awww! how sweet! yes, but weeds are lovely too.

6:15 pm

nutter is good

6:15 pm

gotta go, daniel's ready to settle down and go to bed now. brb.

6:15 pm

until they choke everything else

6:15 pm

red - I thought the rule was NO spelled out clues - we do not give out 3rd letters no matter what etc...

6:15 pm

bye Feather

6:15 pm

there are no rules

6:16 pm

there's no rules link, the only rule is not to be crass or mean

it is the "rule" but you would be surprised, when people use clues like Snake letter, chair letter...

6:16 pm

or obscene

6:16 pm

unwritten rule

nd typically that means, not typing words into chat a lot or whatever.

6:16 pm

yeah...obscene

6:16 pm

chair letter???

6:17 pm

obviously O...bean bag chair

6:17 pm

;-)

6:17 pm

h. I hate those type of clues

6:17 pm

I ask for clues when I am at the end of my wits - its not fun if you dont try

6:17 pm

? I thought chair letter was h

some days its nice to see those clues, but I would never ask for it.

6:18 pm

there are some folks that need help and I dont mind offering obvious clues

6:18 pm

i feel as long as a word isn't typed in the chog, all is fair

6:18 pm

see lynxxx - no rules - we dont even know what is what - lol

but there are a few people that come on here and ask for clue after clue, and I never see why they bother playing.

6:19 pm

its not fair to force others to work the puzzle they way you want to, and if the clue-ing that is going on at the time isn't suiting you, that's why you can hide the chog

6:19 pm

sometimes I think they are new and dont really know what to do

6:19 pm

The worst clues are the ' sixth letter' '2nd vowel' - if you are going to do that really you should just type the word in

6:20 pm

absolutely evan - hide it if you dont want to know

hi all

yes, when those people come on, I tend to simply drift off nut.

6:20 pm

hi Barb

6:20 pm

hi! i have 175 words left. can someone clue them all for me?

6:20 pm

its always a good time to fold laundry red

6:20 pm

hi PK!

6:21 pm

hey pk - guess again - lol

6:21 pm

I must drift off now, Stew s getting a bit anxious about a walk. Down to 50

6:22 pm

just kidding! my only goal for today is to get all the H words!

6:22 pm

awww say hi to stew!

6:22 pm

come back and see us lynxxx - I'll be here a while yet

6:24 pm

hey pk - I think we all got it - have fun with the h's - I have 9 left myself and saving those lovelies for later

hey pk

6:24 pm

hi red!

oh man, how did MNH know I need to fold laundry?

6:26 pm

and aren't s's fun too!!!

6:26 pm

ok, back! clues needed?

i need 72 clues, and you need esp to know what I need feather. sorry!

6:27 pm

hmm, a challenge....lol

6:28 pm

lets add to that feather - I need 93 - lets see if she is up to the challenge.....

6:28 pm

i can give random clues for the ones i thought were hard, if anyone's up for that

6:28 pm

supper almost ready so not for me but thanks all the same

I'm good, I might hit listy ..

6:29 pm

k

6:29 pm

i'll be here

oh heavens, I was looking for a k word in the grid.

6:30 pm

ummm....red....

yes, I know.

how is everyone?

hi barb

hi red

6:36 pm

hiya

hi bee

seems quiet

6:39 pm

ayup

what are people going todo this weekend?

6:40 pm

not much. mowing figures big.

I hope to get my awning finished being put up and the pool repaired...it had a leak last night ....of course at the bottom and so we had to drain it right down in order to patch it..what a lot of water...but I think the trees were happy for the drink

6:46 pm

Hello kids. Anybody still here? This is my first look at the grid.

hi scrabbler

6:46 pm

hey scrabs

6:47 pm

How are you Barb + Hursh?

okay and you scrabs

6:47 pm

anxious

why are you anxious hurshy?

6:48 pm

vacation next week

6:48 pm

Tired--slept poorly last night, kayaked in the afternoon, then, because I am on-call, had to go into the office to see "overflow" sick kids--just 4 kids.

6:48 pm

Why, Hursh?

hope you get a chance to catch up on the weekend scrabs

ooo vacation awesome have a great time

6:49 pm

I am on call until Monday at 8 AM and have office hrs from 8-12 (or longer) tomorrow.

6:49 pm

i shall miss my kitties :(

are you going somewhere special hurshy?

6:50 pm

Are you going away? I get terrible separation anxiety when I leave my bunnies.

6:51 pm

my uncle's getting married so going out to colorado

6:51 pm

big trip to the states - good for you

6:51 pm

Who will take care of your cats?

6:51 pm

i always think these things are a good idea far in advance, and then when they get close i'm like, ack, why am i doing this

6:51 pm

oh, i'm already in the states

6:52 pm

my friend will check in on the cats

I am sure your friend will do a great job

6:52 pm

I just set up Adirondack vacations for July + August and am already anxious about leaving my bunnies.

i worry too when I have to leave mine don't think I will be going anywhere this year...not even up to Kamloops

6:53 pm

fooled us didnt you - the animals will do just fine - especially kitties

6:53 pm

When will you leave, H?

6:53 pm

sure barb but i will MISS them

6:53 pm

monday

6:53 pm

Take photos wit you, H.

do you have someone you trust to look after them scrabs?

Ok I am now back to try to conquer the 71 words left. the dog is driving me nuts.

6:54 pm

when we went on vacation I think our bunnies did the bunny hop in joy we were leaving

6:54 pm

My nephew lives with me but I do not entirely trust him. He is 22--thus still in those brain death years.

why is the dog driving you nuts red?

6:55 pm

Go Red go!

6:56 pm

of course our bunnies would rather NOT have human interaction - they cringined when the kids came to take them out of the hutch - you could read their thoughts

6:56 pm

With rabbits a caretaker must be very aware of their eating + pooping habits, and their behavior.

my neighbours are going away next week but I will go and check on the cats as the daughter doesn't seem to look after them and she lives there

things can change quickly i take it scrabs? I know I pay more attention to my horses poop than others...it tells you alot

6:58 pm

we had the pleasure of having our friends dog stay with us when they were gone on vacation and they had a niece living with them but she wasnt trusted. My dogs (at least one of them) loved having a sleepover mate

that sounds like a strange thing to do huh?

6:59 pm

If rabbits stop eating + pooping, or become lethargic, it is a sign of a potentially serious GI problem called GI stasis.

poop checking that is...for those who don't do that

6:59 pm

we get alot of horses poop from the farm up the street - great compost for our gardens once it cools off

didn't one of your rabbits have that a little while back? or was that something else?

6:59 pm

Makes sense to me, Barb. We know our pet's behaviors + routines in detail.

7:00 pm

Yes, Tucker had it 2-3 mo ago.

7:00 pm

House is on now--rerun but new for me.

7:00 pm

I can tell when something is bothering my dogs - our bunnies are now gone

yes...i seem to know right away when something is wrong...my husband has learned to trust my calls with the animals

7:01 pm

LOVE House

go enjoy scrabs and hurshy if you are still here have a blast and try not to worry to much.

I best get dinner organized so we can get the pool started on its repairs.

7:02 pm

I call my nephew daily when I am away--ask him questions and give him reminders.

well i got 72 words today not too bad for me I guess

I would come look after them scrabs but too far away

7:03 pm

I am up to 73. I love big grid--just typing away with no intent to finish.

okay well I am off...bye all (hugs)

7:04 pm

Bye Barb. Make sure you check your horses' poop.

LOL....tomorrow out in the field LOL

you check your bunnies too :)

7:13 pm

how many words does it have?

7:14 pm

353 words gab - good luck

7:14 pm

ty

first 2 letters and definition of any 8s?

7:16 pm

ha8 compound work

7:16 pm

re8 & 9 as the plural

7:17 pm

sh8 - leanto plural

7:18 pm

st8 - youll find it in the cluster of attendees

7:20 pm

and the sh8 - the most nude

7:24 pm

Still here--buried int grid. Hi Jean + gabiim.

7:25 pm

TY for sh8 x 2--thinking about the others.

7:25 pm

yw

still have 11 H words.

7:26 pm

gave up on them a while ago - need fresh eyes for them

7:27 pm

it worked because I am down to 66 words - woohoo

7:31 pm

211 to go and even halfway may be unreachable tonight.

7:31 pm

your are cranking scrabbs - dont give up

7:37 pm

hi all. I am finished the grid so I popped in to say hi

7:39 pm

hello friends

7:39 pm

reet

7:40 pm

greetings.

7:40 pm

reet to you too EB!!

hi!

7:41 pm

lol knitter - I was trying to type "greetings" whilst eating a chocolate bunny left over from easter....

7:41 pm

sure blame the bunny. hi red

7:42 pm

trust me, it's been that sort of a day

7:43 pm

nothing like a good chocolate bunny to make the world spin right

7:44 pm

I still can't decide if it was a good day or a bad one....

finished the H's! dog is driving me nutty! bark bark bark.

he needs nothing.

7:45 pm

mine was very busy. a giant TGIF i mus say

7:45 pm

Today at 11am I got my biggest paycheck (to date) from work. Then I went to get my oil changed at 11:30, and they told me that my front brakes were shot, and the rotors too, and definitely needed changing RIGHT NOW. Total repair? ONE DOLLAR less than my paycheck.

7:45 pm

perhaps he is trying to tell you that timmy is in the well - you really should listen red

7:46 pm

ahh but you do still have that dollar! that sucks

no timmy, no well, dog is just in a mood, he does this every blue moon.

7:49 pm

Hello one and all. I am home from our sojourn in Quebec. Great place to visit but I am so glad to be home.

7:49 pm

no, I don't! the oil change and tire rotation kicked it over the total, and I ended up in the hole. again. but I am choosing to be proud that I made enough money to cover any of it, and no child support money will be used for car repair.

7:50 pm

a good feeling - independance

7:50 pm

independence even

well, trif, this has happened I believe to all of us at one point in time or another. its frustrating. but you will not need brakes for a while now.

7:50 pm

it's okay. you were just french for a minute

7:50 pm

Isn't it so true that windfalls usually come just in time cover what unexpectedly falls your way.

hi stidgmere.

7:51 pm

Hi red.

yes stidg, I just got a stock dividend check and it is of course, the appropriate amount to boost up my not so biggest paychecks ever. New job is ever so welcome.

7:51 pm

that is a good way to think of it indeed stidge

7:52 pm

Thinking positively is good. Can't change it. May as well be thankful you and the children are safer.

7:52 pm

thanks babble rabble

7:52 pm

besides the peel of the fruit can anyone spoon feed me the other Z words please

BR, how are you doing? I have missed seeing you for a while.

think of a number that starts with Z knitter and you will have all three.

7:53 pm

For our usual frugal lifestyle, we were very out-of-character on this trip. Whenever we go somewhere it seems that stockmarket dives. We'll stay home for a while so the financial world can breathe easier.

7:53 pm

Hello, HT.

7:54 pm

Back again. The good news, Trif, is that you now know that you need new brakes rather than having non-working brakes.

7:54 pm

omg - i need new glasses and a new brain too! ty

BR have you been doing alright?

7:54 pm

I agree, scrabbler. we are safe, and that is important. it's always gonna be something, so I am going to be grateful that I had the money to fix what needed to be fixed.

7:55 pm

At least it's "only" money--not a health issue, not a major home disaster...

7:55 pm

Hi scrabbler. We saw a sign that had three rabbits crossing the road. A caution road sign with yellow background and black sillouets (how do you spell that?). I took some pictures so hope to have it on my icon eventually.

7:55 pm

I am facing some challenges .... not too bad. Thanks for asking.

I will be thinking of you, if you like BR. I am finally starting to feel more like myself again.

7:56 pm

Yes BR, you have always been a chatter I've enjoyed seeing on the log.

7:56 pm

Very cool, Stidgmere!

7:56 pm

amen, scrabbler

7:56 pm

bunnies crossing! heart.

but trif, I understand that moment of frustration, you work hard for cash and then poof in a moment it disappears.

7:57 pm

BR, I had 5 mo of being engulfed by that Black Monster--came out about 2 mo ago. It was hellish + scary.

7:57 pm

Great. Glad you a better, H. Hello, stidgmere

7:57 pm

Trif, what happened to poor Cinnamon?

Well, NR, we will see how long it lasts, but I am relieved at the moment.

7:58 pm

((BR)) ((Red))

WIll be thinking of you BR, and let me know if there is something I can do for you.

7:59 pm

Happy you beat the monster, Scrabbler. Thanks

7:59 pm

Thanks, RedT

7:59 pm

He is now comfortably buried in the back yard, in a really nice spot. We put his favorite sleeping bed in there with him.

8:00 pm

Had he gotten ill, Trif? How old was he?

boy this grid really does go on and on.

8:01 pm

he was of unknown vintage -- we freecycled him from someone who thought he was about 4 years old, and we called him our own for 5, so that's pretty good, in bunny years, from what Iunderstand

YW BR, It is my pleasure. Mnay a time you have helped me.

8:02 pm

hi buddies

8:03 pm

Oh, yes, Trif. Bunnies are geriatric at 6 or so. So he had a wonderful life! My oldest bunny is my wee Sebastian--just turned 8. Prior oldest was Callie--7 yrs 8 mo, and she died 2 yrs ago.

8:03 pm

Hi Doren!

8:03 pm

Hi Dorens. visiting about the daily whirl.

8:04 pm

Hello, Dorens

8:04 pm

thanks for asking, scrabbler. I still look for him in the hallway every day....

8:04 pm

babrab, how have you been?

8:05 pm

May 10, 2008, wasn't is Scrabs? I lost little Charm that same day.

8:05 pm

Yes, it sure was, Peach. I buried her on Mother's Day 2008.

8:06 pm

I have a "rescue" dog now...sweet but not him.

8:06 pm

My vet's office called the other day. A rabbit owner donated bags of hay after her bunny died and the staff thought of me. Over the years I have brought in 8 rabbits.

8:07 pm

I miss my Callie. She was a beauty.

8:08 pm

I have Charmy's picture on my cell phone....I show it to people I meet (kind of like showing a child's picture, I guess.

8:08 pm

Trif, is your family cheering for the Bruins? Tied in 3rd period now.

8:09 pm

no, my family is either watching tropic thunder with their girlfriend, sleeping over a friends, or at mr. hates

8:09 pm

interesting about your vet's office, scrabbler - I am looking for someone to donate all my leftover bunny supplies to....

8:09 pm

I am almost halfway then will go to bed. Must make rounds first then be on office at 0830.

8:10 pm

Yep, call a vet's office, or local rabbit rescue.

8:10 pm

halfway makes sense... this is certainly large.. but the beginning flowed soooo quickly

8:11 pm

The beginning of large grids is always fun and makes one feel smug.

8:11 pm

.....and then we have our comeuppance

8:11 pm

yes, it is fun when NBT comes quickly....

8:12 pm

...Babble Blindness Syndrome emerges.

8:12 pm

Yikes ..

8:12 pm

hello torgone my love

8:12 pm

eek. big grid (((hugs everyone))) I think I am going to wait a little while and see if I have time and energy later.

8:12 pm

and that is where i am. 44 left

8:13 pm

Hi Torgone. Get started--you have over 3 hrs to finish this.

8:13 pm

Hi Stid

8:13 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

8:13 pm

hi stid and tor

8:13 pm

grading papers tonight, then thinking about how to start writing a statistical analysis for the teaching I am doing this week and next, and then have to tighten up some lesson plans and write a good bit of other "stuff" and then...

8:13 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

8:14 pm

Nearly flatlining here, Min.

8:14 pm

*gets out paddles and stands at the ready next to scrabs*

ok, could I please get a clue for the re 6, 18 that is right after giving out money again?

8:14 pm

It's my brain, Stid---entering REM stage while Babbling.

8:15 pm

oh, I don't think I got out of REM today! LOL

8:15 pm

I can only babble until 9:30, and then I have to get stuff done, so I am trying to cram a lot in...

8:15 pm

okay, back in bit to catch up on chat... (taking each class's papers in batches with breaks in between...)

8:16 pm

and there is a lot to cram

8:16 pm

Bye Stid

8:16 pm

bye stid. good luck

no one has the re 6, 18? the re 6, 18 that is right after giving out money again?

8:18 pm

is it to put the bottom on a shoe again?

8:19 pm

yes red - the re6 is to re + do the bottom of shoes

I think it may be fish me

and thanks!!!! Eva, big smoochies.

8:19 pm

8:19 pm

ugh - even with DSL - very slow chat response time

8:19 pm

I'm still missing 84, but that happened to be one I had

8:19 pm

Hi Eva

8:20 pm

hi scrabbler

I do appreciate it eva.

8:20 pm

**sploosh**

8:21 pm

8:22 pm

shlaffen gut, scrabbler

8:22 pm

8:23 pm

8:32 pm

8:32 pm

8:33 pm

8:33 pm

8:38 pm

lol, i'm watching tv, kinda spacey

8:39 pm

hey that's ok, i'm not watching tv and still kinda spacey

I'm watching the new Phineas and ferb. its awesome.

8:42 pm

biggest loser rerun from tuesday here

phineas are much more cheery.

well, I suppose it is only for children...

8:43 pm

not really, i actually prefer that daniel doesn't watch it! little too "old" humor for him, for my tastes!
