Hi, PAV
hi west and Jellen...
Just got home from listening to a band...ears are ringing...

nm
no offense taken here pav I like food too much
westford, go to the home page, acrobot send you an invite to connect, so you can play the game there!!
george I'm overwhelmed

all easy, wf, you'll see the invite, upper right of the home page!
yeah, that's right
click the 'Home' button on the left, once on the home page where you see everyone's updates look in the upper right, should be an invitation link!?
click 'profile' again to go to your own page after if you want to be there

I'm going to copy all your help George and try to sort it out
jhb -- are you here?
I think I'm on the homepage there's a little snowflake in the bottom right corner of the icon
g'night pav -- sorry I haven't chatted but have bee watching (sort of) Edward Scissorhands, which I never saw when it first came out. Strange one!
or maybe it's a star?

I know, I'm sorry for saying the s word
it snowed in Calgary the other day...

Hi Christine - how are you tonight/today
shoe
oh jilli they're welcome to it
shoes
you've got a new comment on your page I see!

so nice of you to offer to help
oh yeah? why would he be mad??
time I joined the 21st century lol
he doesn't look mad to me, he's posted a comment to ya, a nice one!!

no jilli must have a different name?
here, sorry, was busy for a bit
yeah, westford, you can go to your own page to see comments posted there easy, click the profile button!
try Anne M cara
although I see she's changed it to Bugsaw Anne
and I meant 'no pain no gain' in the email reply I just sent but being not fully awake even yet I put it the other way around, ha!
yeah, saw she did that
George I'll look for Siobhan again and Bugsaw Anne
Farewell, everyone...fatigue has just hit like a ton of bricks!
good night Jellen and thanks for including me
yeah, just go back to my page, click 'More' link above my connections to see all of them, westford
night Jellen, sweet dreams to ya! Xx!
you'll find lots of babblers there, westford
post up your pic and put 'westford' as your nickname, so they know who you are
oh okay but later it's getting really tired here
I am on that page now George
night jellen -- I'll be turning in soon too.
found bugsaw but can't figure out how to ask for an invitation
same with Siobhan
George will tell you -- won't you, George.
I think George is tired of my ineptitude ( is that a word? )
Bugsaw Anne only shares info with connections. Invite Bugsaw Anne to get updates.
okay...how?
wait...get updates?
I'm talking myself through this
Does it say "Get updates" there? Click on it.
yes jilli I do believe I'm getting it lol
Clever you
I really am tired was a very busy day and the traffic coming home was awful
not to mention the meow meow meow translated to 'let me out'
Well, it must be very late in RI!
it is
after 3 a.m.
awww, give kitty a scritch from me!
and everything is scattered all over
Hi West & Jilli - you are both wearing the same dress!
both of them are sound asleep in the living room
oh I have a story
I'm all ears
we were getting ready to go and there was a bit of granola left but not enough to take back so I told Jon to throw it out on the lawn for the birds
a big red furry bird came and started eating it
furry bird???
it was a fox !!
Hi Christine- how are you doing tonight?
poor thing looked like it was starving
one cat was in and one was still out
louser
user
I whistled for KC and he came running
thank goodness
hi lyn!
hi lyn no chooks around lol
who is KC?
our Kitty Cat..the fluffy black male
sorry -- didn't know their names.
Foxes look so sweet but I know they aren't
we couldn't think of a name for him lol
friendly foxes can be rabid.
my husband looked out and said it was a coyote lol
most of the houses are closed up for the winter
lyn we're finally back home lol took us long enough
Back with a cuppa, and I see my little sister is here -- hi, hunny.
hi Christine!
How long do you spend at the Summer house?
hi Christine and jhb
hello Christine and jhb
this was the first year not renting it out
hello, Westford.
and Lynxxx
cool icon, Christine!
we were there from the end of May until now..few trips home and one to daughter's wedding
diacritics !!
It
had loads of company
It's a lovely poster that I mean to buy, but forget about it until I look into my pictures for an icon..
Sounded like you had fun, so you will do that each year now?
we probably won't go up for as long summer didn't really get to Maine until July
and then it came with a vengeance
nice the beach was a 10 minute walk away
You must put a picture of the summer house up some time
I will it's just a little log cabin
but we had a 3 season porch put on last year
You don't want a mansion there otherwise you spend all your time cleaning and not relaxing
very true but we sure could use another bathroom lol
did get a washer/dryer and what a godsend that is
Instal one of those outside showers for the guests!
that's next on the list
hubby worked from home all summer so his 'office' was the 2nd bedroom and that's where the laundry is
but mostly he sat outside with his laptop
what a life lol
Nice!
he thought so
Does he work from home in your 'real' home?
yes he does
goes into the office about every 2 weeks
well, 76 left and I'm going to bed. Bridge tomorrow. Goodnight all and *poof*
does a lot of phone meetings
night Jilli!
nice jilli !! I have 97 words
night, Jilli, sleep well!! Xx!
good night and slam them grand
hi again George what time is it there?
8:40 am
off in a few, over halfway now
Disappearing into the grid for a bit, bye West
no time to do much more! will try with my phone or ipad later, on the move!
try the acro word, westford, I'll try to have a crack shortly, ha!
bye lyn see you soon
I'm not sure I'm in there yet George
still trying to find Siobhan what page is she on?
her own, westford, go through all the pages of all my connections, she's probably on the last coz they go in alphabetical order
I see I'm in your connections now
it's wonky goes from the first to the last page
well of course, yeah, cos you accepted my invite!
na, it's not wonky, you just don't understand it yet! wonky, how??
skips from the 1st to the last page
and yes I don't understand but I will
not if you click each in order!
with the arrows?
the two middle arrow buttons are to either advance or go back by only one page -- the two outer arrow buttons take you to the very end or very start of all my connections, see?
got it now
yeah, well see what I just said.........
must have been clicking the outer arrows
and don't mind Jon, he's got two pages coz his updates stopped working in his original one so he made another, but you don't know him anyhow so doesn't matter, lol!
you might find another of my connections or two has done that for the same reason!
you'll see Craig there, he's my brother in law, Siobhan's husband!
don't know him? I'm married to him lol
I just found Siobhan and St Franny
what are you on about? of course your not, your not married to the Jon I'm talking about in my connections, ha, ha!!
he's my ex!
from many years ago--like over two decades, lol!
I'll put a picture in tomorrow and 'westford'
yeah, good, some others there as well, Seain, see him?\
Seain there, he's dcseain from here!!
my Jon and I have been together 45 years
I clicked on Seain already
oh yeah? nice!!
and flosey's there

I mostly babble late at night
George do you love your iPad?

yeah, it's a pretty cool toy! good when I'm on the move travelling about!!
got howie didn't see jesse or m9 or the rest I will look again
Mary there, she's Soodlebum, you'll see Pinikula, think that's got'em all!?
Jon has one but it's not so good for babble
I really need to look again missed so many
no, can do it though, with the iphone too but can't chat, that's the drawback to that!
no chat is terrible but can you put up 2 screens..the grid and lickety? he can't figure out how to do that
dunno, not tried to
I'm pretty lost without lickety
try the word game though, it's good fun, that!
acro game
and I'm off, see ya later! Xx!
it's still loading
says 'getting updates'
have a wonderful time in Switzerland
and thanks for talking me through all this xxxx

that one was my nemesis too
dart helped

nope, got back to nc a couple of weeks ago
you'll be missing their Thanksgiving then

maybe in the future, but hoping it doesn't come to that right now
I understand..
nice to have that Ph
oops PhD after your name
i've only a master's, not anxious to get started on the phd just yet
I thought you got your doctorate
better get cracking lol
very well done josh
that's a hell of a commitment
a master's is nothing to scoff at
it is and a lot of $$ too
no kidding
loans to pay off and all that
first lady of the united states isn't a word lol
if I had my way it would be free for the asking
trillions on war but not one red cent for education
or so it seems
preaching to the choir
yeah lol
the tricky bit is i'd wager that with more education for all there'd be less motivation to pursue wars halfway across the world
I'm sure
I have decided to vote for the first economist to run for president
steve forbes?
no lol
maybe Steve Jobs
ha
an apple in every pot
i can see the state of the union speech right now
jobs saying that his new budget is amazing and unbelievable 300 times in 10 minutes
he is a character that's for sure
good morning everybody
hi ruby
are you Americans still up? or starting the day very early?
how is your washing machine?
still up here
always a night owl, ruby
good thing I don't have to be up and dressed by 8 a.m. I'd never make it
I just noticed there are 17 v's and I have 2
now I have 4
I am waiting for the repairman, hoping it's a simple fix and that I don't have to buy a new one. He'll be here any time between 10AM and 5PM! Nothing like a day killed waiting!
i have 11. i'm having issues with the L
the left L that is
there are some flowers there josh
ruby don't be surprised if he calls at 5:30 to say he can't make it
yeah, got those.
it's OK, I'll just sit here and drown in laundry!
no, actually, they're pretty good here about Saturday appts: doctor, nurse, etc.
might just be a kink in the hose
it has something to do with the door which has stopped making a connection when it's cl***d
or a kink in the repairman
that would be interesting if he's cute
josh there are some soil ones
hah, repairman just called to say he's coming at 2:30. Very nice
that is nice
hope it doesn't co4 an arm and a leg
for 1/2 hr, just for coming, it's 64 euros. Hopefully, if he fixes it (parts extra), we'll get a little more time out of the machine.
I do wash every day, so it's had a lot of use.
once I called the dryer repairman he came from one street over and charged $25 to tell me it wasn't plugged in
that's awful
i called a repairman to come over to look at my water heater and paid him 80 bucks to find out i needed to flip the breaker
stere
steres
stereo
that was about 30 years ago.. and it wasn't my fault husband unplugged it to use a power tool
stereos
thanks ruby lol
oooh, sorry, is there coffee in the PB?
oh josh I know just how you feel
not sure but I made some the minute we got back here
we're back home now after 4 months in Maine
I think that, overall, the repairmen and workers here are pretty fair
was Maine wonderful?
it was.. got a little too hot some days but otherwise it was heaven
i like maine
the water could be a little bit warmer
but the lobsters ...
sounds like heaven
we had lots of company and it wouldn't be right not to have lobster
and my husband doesn't even like it
with sweet corn?
yes and steamers
tis the season for sweet corn
last time I went to the market they were all out
no sweet corn in France!
you must have a longer growing season
oh no ruby
our growing season is a bit longer for a lot of things
my parents used to have a house on LI near to Greenport and we would go to the dock, buy lobsters, and pick up sweet corn from a farm on the way back
that's living isn't it?
did you get Italian ice too?
usually local watermelon for desert. Brings ack lovely memories (it's a long time ago)
it's so sad to see summer end
long time ago for me too
I can remember going to the beach with my girl friends and 5 of us pitching in for gas..
a dollar took us there and back lol
and it was probably 30 cents a gallon! hahah
just about
Yay, got all the Ls. Hi Ruby & Josh
good job lyn
hello lynxx!!!

a strange cat is scratching on my door

just got that one, josh, funny word
it's just nice to be in here among friends!
I agree
L's all gone now
nice job !!
Rubyfoo, how is your husband's recovery ?
that other lu word was a surprise
hello Christine. His bites are almost healed but he is having back trouble from his fall when the dog took him down and psychologically, it's another story
a bit of text speak, eh west
thank you for asking, Christine
worthy of a water tower somewhere, i'm sure
yes and goes so well with the other one
hahah josh
I just realized, they don't have water towers here
no sweet corn and no water towers?
strange place, eh?
oui
sheesh, if you're looking for a long word in this grid, just throw a suffix meaning 'without' on the end
thanks I'm still looking for the 9's
9's? how about 8's and 7's hahah
for nbt, does anybody have the bottom e?
eg5/14, ruby
a more superlative version of a eg4/6
pav said it reminded him of regurgitating models
thank you, josh
yay, half!!!
wtg ruby !!

*poof*
20 left, going to list
bye ruby
oh josh
I'm trying to get to 100 left

Yay josh !!
I have 5 to go
10 le's 14 lo's and 2 lu's
11 le's
18 lo's

thanks will I find them without tearing my hair out?
depends on which ones you're missing
there is a pair where you add a vowel to your soulmate
hmm
spice girls singing if i wanna be your ______
or if you wanna be my
i forget. never paid too much attention to that song
oh dear
must sleep
good luck with those L's
I can see them singing that song I just can't hear it
just add a vowel to that word when you realize it
good night josh I'm not long for this laptop either
you can't make that word itself in the grid because that very vowel is in the way
thanks you helped
ah now comes the dawn
3 to go now
uncle
bye everyone
Hello, if there is anyone there. I have a question. I'm using Babble Expert and I'm getting adverts of Vanish oxy action. I've never noticed that beore
before
or has my computer gone mad
Hi Sarah, just checked on my Expert, no ads here. Are you sure it is on Lickety clue list..you don't have one of the Resources screen open in it - some of them have ads
Hi silversarah, if you"re still there. I use Firefox and have all ads blocked.
no, I haven't got anything else open
and its a sound ad
Is it on the Babble screen or the Clue screen in Expert Sarah?
found it
I had that yesterday, Silver. A bit weird isn't it.
at the bottom of the a-z word list
and yes - made me jump
So it is one one of the Resources screen then. Quite a few of them have advertising space. Expert doesn't have and ads yet though
yes it was, but strange that I hadnt noticed it before as I'm always looking at those lists
Now you are assured that you're not hearing voices you can turn the sound off and get on with the grid, Silver!
The more 'hits' those sites get, the more likely they are to get advertising. You must be using it too much!
I'm very relieved... and happy to know that if I am hearing voices they aren;t talking about stain removal
and yes -I'm using it far too much
thanks for the help - housework calls ...bye
bye Sarah, we'll keep your seat warm
night all
hello all
good afternoon Sprite
hi donna!
washingmachine repairman is here. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it can be fixed!
hello, too
hello rubyfoo
the studio is near the laundry lroom
I hope you are in luck.
it would not be a great time to have to buy a new machine!
it never is
true true
It is amazing how fast the laundry accumulates, considering that I do at least one load a day and there are only two of us!
my grandparents were always so wise with money. They always had some spare for emergencies like this. I still don't know how they did it.
a friend took home a load of "smalls" to help carry us through which I thought was exceptionally nice of her
yes that is very nice. I am always so grateful for a working washing machine.
I do at least four loads per day, theres four of us here.
that makes me feel less crazy, thank you
school uniforms, PE nad football kits, my husbands bakers whites...its never ending
wow donna, that is a LOT! We are 4 here, and my husband has work clothes too, and we sport. I do one load a day.
one could manage without a dishwasher or a clothes' dryer, but the washing machine is indispensible
I agree Ruby
I hardly use my clothes drier. I love my dishwasher but I could do without. But the washing machine is the machine I value most. Even more than I love my 'puter.
washing dishes for two is no big deal; I just think they're cleaner using the machine. it is too hard to hang up clothes for me
as for ironing -- NOT!
and if you get stuff right out of the dryer, very little ironing is needed anyway
I don't iron either. My family knows: either buy clothes that don't need it or do it yourself. I cannot stand for long, so they are on their own.
exactly the same problem
when I hang up the laundry, I always pull it straight. It is amazing how neat it can be without ironing.
and, fortunately, since we don't dress up here, most clothes don't need it anyway
am gonna fold laundry tonight... am way behind with that. Another backbreaking task.
the repairman's fixing sounds like mostly slamming and re-slamming the door -- I had better take a xanax!
and Miss Ruby is growling and pacing to make sure he doesn't come near me
or put both feet on the floor, breathe deeply and try to find your inner power... am doing that a lot lately, lol
Any chance of a clue for co8 and 9 pls
hi smaan, I don't have them yet but will help you look
co8 = co + le6
Just found it! Thanx
Morning all. Thanks for the co8 clue saffire.
lucky me! for 64 euros, he got it functioning and just needs to replace the catch on the door which he'll do next week! yay
morning Molly
that is good news, rubyfoo. Gratz.
Ruby, I just got a new washer and dryer, after dealing with old, barely working ones for months. I am in Heaven doing my laundry now. Glad you got your washer fixed.
yvw :)
thanks for the two co words
?
that was meant to be from saffire sorry
those co words are long and weird!
lol ok... thought you have a gender change
we share!!
not really weird, rubyfoo, but legal
a body, dodge?
back to the herald tribune. see you later, folks
{{sprite}}
bye rubyfoo, enjoy the good news and relax
just words!!
*grin* Ok dodge!

good morning ((Peri)), so nice to see you
nice to seeyolu too Mom
eg5, rhymes with bird's home

HI Une!

annie, it's moi with my brother (can you feel the love? LOL)
hey, nono!!
yes, Une, I can (sort of) were you slightly jealous of him as a child? Being the only for a few years?
i remember thinking he could just go back where he came from!
very understandable
i think the pic is hilarious -- looks like Demon Seed with a mean stranglehold on the infant! LOL
it IS hard to believe we came from the same family -- we're sooooo different
I like the expression on your face..it says a lot about how you are feeling about the little guy
he's a card-carrying Republican, for heaven's sake! :-)
Une, now I understand your feeling...do you know way back then? LOL
just to torture me, he once added my name to Republican Party mailing list -- aacckk!!
LOL, Une..did you add his name to the Democratic Party mailing list?
nah . . . but he did have to deal with moi having a lifesize cardboard cutout of Bill Clinton in my living room for a number of years :-)
and my glee on the last election day
Une, that is so funny about bill clinton...I l ove it
:-D
i've grayed out 6 tiles. besides the two we were given. but this is getting very hard!

good morning Scrabbs
hi scrab, sort of :)
Hi jbp, how are you this morning?
irritated that my npr station isn't done with the fund drive so I can't listen to wait wait don't tell me.\
but otherwise, good
and you?
I like NPR shows
me too, and it's kind of a saturday ritual with me and the hubby to listen to it
hiya scrabs & jbp
howdy dan!
Hi Maggie's daddy.
baby2bit has just discovered grasping her own toes this week - easy self-entertaining!
awwww, cah-yooot at that stage
I am deciding what to do today. Clean garage? hike with friend? Go to friend's house for Scrabble? Clean house?
one of the middle two, depending on weather
i like choices b and c, scrabs
OK, I will call a friend, see if I can go there, play Scrabble, walk, etc.
bottom corner E, anyone?
Wading bird
diff e, sadly
also the exit word is a diff e
Otay, sorry
no worries
I have eg4
i find it stressful that "stress" is my phantom
Also, not from that e, sorry again
that must be it...clue-let?
hi all, I think eg5 is the one you need
hmm.. I have that e.. just don't remember which one it was..
e+ge4
ah yes.. that was the one aloy
Hi Aloy!
e + that was a nice ****ure of appreciation
thanks aloy!
the bottom e is e5/14: spitting something out, in a way
TY
hi Scrabbs! just came back from a stream monitoring session and am going out for a hike in a bit.. too pretty to stay inside, so I vote that you go for a hike
oops, Aloysius beat me to it, and with a better clue!
it's not a competition.;-)
My mother is on the phone, rambling, retelling her labor & deliveries of us 4, because I told her that my friend is in labor now.
(whenever my sister says that, she follows with "but if it were, I'd be ahead") ;-)
ooh boy
I kayaked + hiked yesterday so am sore but I could do an easy walk.
hellooooooooooo
Haha, jbp
Hi varumba
hi scrabbler :)
for nbt one more clue request.... E, 4th column, center

Forev4 and ev4!

Enjoy, jbp
sounds like fun, jbp

Bye

hello
hi phaeton

Hi phaeton
hi varumba (-:
*trying to explain smart phones to my mother*
just say it's like a compact comuter
computer*
She doesn't understand, or use, a computer.
lol... good luck then ;)
Now she is doing the play-by-play about each pregnancy.
And labor and delivery.
lolol
well, were you an "easy" baby, Scrabbs?
am feeling like a terrible mother bc my daughter wants to know what time she was born (so her friend can do an accurate horoscope).. and I can't tell her! Have to scrounge in the attic and hope the time was put on her birth announcement.
But she was induced, so I had to ask her if "that counts" for a horoscope, lol
lol
she didn't know, said she had to check, lol
lovin these plurals!
sure quite a few s in this grid
too many plurals... *grumble*
hi ruru
hi ruru.. but I like them!
I was the first, easiest + smallest baby at 8-9.
Hi Ruru
wow, Scrabbs!
hi ruru and m9
gm ladies
Those are fine-looking pups, ruru
Brother, #4 baby, was biggest at 8-15 and 3 wks early. Grew into 6 ft 8 man.
Hi hgk
most of these words are just good guesses
my babies were average. 7 5, 7 3, 6 9, and I don't remember the last..
4 kids! wow
thanks helen
I thought everyone here knew my 4 kids! LOL
wow scrab!!! tall brother!
morning all
hi pini
Hi Pini
awwwww... are they labs, ruru?
and they were all born at home ru
hi Pini !
my little brother was 10.15; now 6'3"
wow, m9!
Pini, our litle bros got the tall genes
wow.. M9..
good morning everyone - in to get as many as I can before everyone gets up
sure did...I have 3 brothers all over 6' (6'1", 6'4", 6'3")...I'm the tallest girl at 5'10"
Hi Flosey
hi flosey!
m9, did you have a midwife?
hi scrabbs and Aloy - haven't been in at this time for a while
hi flosey
My mother is going strong on the phone.
Pini, you're an inch taller than i WAS, have lost 2"
I "see" you at the flip flosey, but I am usually lurking a finding a "few" before bedtime
yes scrabbs... with the first a nurse practitioner midwife, and the next 3 with midwife/naturopathic doctors
diff one every time
I'm Compressing too flosey
My mother is 79 and has shrunk from 66 in to 63 in
ah, was on last night until my daughters and all arrived
that's why i keep doing my yoga and eating healthy
when does a person start shrinking?
Haha, Doren.
wow, Scrabbs, did she have back trouble after losing?
hi Dorens!
60's - 70's? (and weights too!)
depends on the density of t he bones i guess
She has had chronic lower back pain since having 4 large babies.
And she reminds us of it often
I hadn't noticed until i was in my early 60s, was standing with daughter and realized we were eye - eye!! and she's 5' 7"
my mother has lost two inches... and she swears her doctor says she has the bones of a woman in her 20's. (a much shorter woman in her 20's)
i have lower back pain.. but that is mostly caused by the IRS
lol ru,
oh ok..... so how does the doc explain loss of height?
So true, Ruru, more like buttocks pain
lol.. def a cause of pain!
I used to be 6 feet tall.. but am shorter now..
hi ru. and varumba, you are asking for rational thinking from my mother??? I don't believe the doctor said that any time in the last dcade or two or three. just her vanity
probably all that pounding on the tennis courts
LMAO ok dorens... i WAS wondering how she could have lost height without her bones crumbling!
dorens your mother is like mrs cleaver next to mine
that may be ru. back in the 50's they were hard to tell apart
lol
true
ooh, just found the re8 leg syndrome!
ru you may use the familiar with me, and drop the s
how is mrs. ru?
she's fine.. it was a viral thing.. just a day or two
TY, Aloy
good glad to hear that. and scrabbs, sorry about your raccoon
I think these viral things are getting nastier and nastier
yw Scrabbs
And ve8
ahh, ty for that one Scrabbs
the co 9 is the toughy
cr9 shares the same ending.. give a cardinal a hair cut
i have no list yet, so these are very helpful folks
What's the underlying meaning, Doren? I was laughing at Krista seeing meaning
i sure don't know. funny thing is, was talking about foxes with ata in our lexulous game on thursday... told her how i have rarely seen them in the wild but find them fascinating. and then this darling shows up on my patio, stops to pause and look in the glass door at me. fabulous
ooh, chilly bump time, Dorens.. wonderful
honestly.. have lived in this town for 33 years and never seen ONE here
found that co9 ruru.. need a clue?
i do!
I do, too
me 3
co9 is the pl of the co8, has to do with sharing rent
wish I had the 8
has anyone read the bestiary by nicholas christopher? i think the clue may be in there somewhere. liked the book a lot too
le6/7 at the end
TY for co 8 and 9
will make a note, Dorens, haven't read it yet
thanks ata, that was a bunch of words i didn't have
no, not ata, aloy!
can't find of those :(
yay, wtg Scrabbs
the opp. of "more" might help, varumba
lol, i now know the beg and the end ;) reamisn to fidn the middle! tx aloy though
my favorite saxman is in the grid
co + opp of more + **k a bug!
danke ;)
bitte (-:
**k a bug... must be an american expression as i don't get that either.... :(
saxman, hm....
(dbl vowel)
7 days in a w**k

am not that good with long words and lots of ssss in it ;)
I have to take breaks from babble totally at times. It's amazing, one comes back after a rest and sees all sorts of words one didn't see b4.
Phone call done. I will meet a friend for Scrabble, a walk in the sun, and lunch. Phew, I can delay housecleaning for another day.
yes true.... i think i will have to do that soon
That always amazes me too, Jill.
Great save there scrabs! I'm just putting mine off...
It was a close one, Jill. My to-do list was written up earlier and I was ready to attack it.
I make up to do lists and lose them in the clutter, lol
Well, I am setting aside one hour to hit this grid, then I will attack the house.
I love checking off items on my lists. OK, off to get ready. 110 left for tonight.
have a great day, Scrabbs!
See ya scrabs have a great day!

gd evening everybody! How are you doing, Seaspray? I haven't seen you for a long time
hello ruby
Been busy with daughter's wedding ruby, it's all over now and getting ready to go on vacaton next week. I need it!
oohh sea.. I'll be doing that in a few months!
how did it go?
It was absolutely beautiful...outside wedding at my parents farm with fall colors, perfect weather, couldn't have turned out any better.
Daughter arrived at the wedding site in a horse and carriage and half the guests were crying.
ah .. nice!!
Well, taking a break way before I should...174 left..*sighs* but the dust bunnies are laughing at me...bbl
Jilly I killed the dust bunnies this morning...well, crippled them is more like it. lol
m9 when is your daughter getting married?
I don't want to break up families.. so I'm not doing anything about mine.
march
It will be here before you know it...do you have everything planned?
she's doing most of it!
Mine did a lot too and I am glad she did
Have to check laundry will bbl
yes!
I need to figure out the announcements..
daughter ordered hers online and they were beautiful
nice. Aiden is trying to do as much herself as can to keep costs down..
I thinkk my credit card bill said Magna Street or something like that lol
I'll look it up. she just uploaded a photo?
We were too but printing our own just did not work out
I think so yes, are you referring to the Save The Date item? If so, I took the photo and she uploaded
hmm.. glen magna farms...
magna carta?
no, I will check and get back to you...she also got some items from Invitations by Dawn, I believe the programs came from there, blank but we printed
am gonna throw that puter across the room.... heeeeeeeeeelp please!! am going mad here... apparently there is a se6/24 between se5/14 (male name) and se4/4 actually it's the only se6/24. and i can't comprehend how a word could come in between.... any1 got it?
plural, varumba
Magnet Street m9
huh... forget that will you??? didn't see the other way that word could be linked with its plural....
hu
hi
broil sounds very calm, lol
lol broll, tx... i typed it thinking : it can't be, there isn't a s linking to it! but it worked, then i saw the path..... *sigh*
yw, I can't tell you how many times I miss plurals, after 5 years of Babbling!
:)
thanks sea!
I just found one called rexcraft.. I'll show her both. she has such definite ideas....LOL
ohhh.. they're the ones that have started the "save the date" trend!
magnet street that is
gd night everybody. I give up with 99 left. see you tomorrow
awwww dont'give up ruby!!!!
I think it's hopeless
{{varumba}}
ask! i have 20 left... so there must be some i can help you with
OK, I'll try. I have one 9, co, plural of roommate
so what do you need?
that co9?
two other 9's?
I have the roommate one
let me look... i have all 9s
cr9/60 = cr5/12+ substantive for without it..... and cr5/12 = that drawing that rich families use to identify themselsves
the family's cr*** used to be engraved on battle sields i believe
shield*
ty, got the cr5 - without
and se9/60 = the pl of se8/45 = money that druids used!
you see, in the comic astérix and obélix, it is the money used ;)
wd on cr9 and cr5!
that is too funny; I'm afraid I never read asterix!
at home, my brothers and I have read all those comics since we wre 4-5 years old, lol
my son, too
se9 = also se+ pl letter + te5/12 + pl letter (that gives you se8 too)
I give up but thanks for trying, varumba. See you tomorrow!
awwwwwww
ok then
good night ruby, enjoy your saturday evening :D

wiiiiider than a mile . . .
at last, a friend! hi une!
hey :-)
i have just had a really great 24-hour anniversary outing
wow congrats!
last year, for our tenth, my husband took me to england (where i may remind you, i am not actually located now or most of the time). so this year i planned a surprise for him.
yeah, knew it was virtual Angleterre :-)
and the surprise was . . .
we went to a nice little b&b in one of those quaint new england towns, and i had made us dinner reservations at a nice place which was in walking distance. they gave us free champagne because it was our anniversary! then today we went on a 20's steam train that goes up a river while you dine. they gave us a free cake because it was our anniversary.
you can get a lot of free stuff on your anniversary.
sounds totally charming and delightful!!
we played trivial pursuit on the porch, soaked in the jacuzzi tub, had great breakfast, at the b&b. enjoyed glenn miller and sinatra on the train.
how perfect!!
sounds nice. where did you go in nh? it sounds like a place near us in waterville valley
hey, minksi :-)
and then we had a lovely scenic drive home and we passed these adorable little girls with an apple cider stand in front of their house, so we bought some cider from them. they were so excited that i think they were going to forget to take our money.
*minski LOL
Hi Une and Hurshy
24 hours made to order, eh? :-)
yeah :)
wonderful memories for both of you :-)
for some reason, when we were kids, one day, my sisters established a sunflower seed stand. where they got the seeds or why they thought people would buy them (on our very little travelled road), i don't know. but i do know that they each operated separately on their own half of the table, one selling the seeds for a penny a bag and one for a dollar a bag.
just scrolled... that sounded absolutely romantic hurshy !!
how funny! I remember selling little bags of apple seeds in my neighborhood (from apples I'd eaten) LOL
we tried to point out to the dollar sister that it wasn't good business to charge so much more than the competition, but she felt that it meant that if she could convince just one person to buy from her, she'd come out ahead. which was probably true! i don't remember if anyone bought any or not though.
:-D
very early entrepreneur LOL
regarding the apple seeds !
my allowance was really tiny LOL!
does anyone have the so6/27 please?
not yet, minski
i'm on the O - the first S that could have SO is next.
can someone clue the 2nd ge5/14?
i got all the top row and all the L's... i can't let two O words beat me!
ge5 is like re5/10
sounds like past tense of a big bird :-)
I am working my way up from the bottom alphabetically. I have the V, U, T all greyed out. Working on the S words now.
hahahaha i just tried something that i totally didn't think would work and it was right!
impressive -- i just bounce all over the grid
i used to bounce, une, and then one day decided to try being orderly, and found that i actually did a lot better, which i didn't expect at all.
hmmmm . . .
I start out that way. Then when I can't find anymore bouncing and following hints alone and I go to the list I do it alphabetically from the bottom up.
i also bounce around the list LOL
good grief, down to 40 and just now saw the lo5 flower!
and its plural
thanks didn't have those either
(i do make exceptions to the tile order when there's a plural from a lower tile of the same letter, otherwise i would certainly forget to enter it later)
97 left to find
I still don't have the so6/27. has anyone found it yet?
no, only an so6/21 so far
same here
it might be lower S though.
Hello...
hey, jellen!
the S's are definitely causing me some trouble.
there are quite a few s words. I have 13 still tofind
aha! Whoso**** believeth in me . . .
well done une!
that's been in the grid before . . . but in 5 minutes I'll have forgotten it again LOL
thanks muchly une. that was my last so word. 12 more s words to find.
last one I need...any clue for the last st6/18 ?
phew! buttload of SE words.
like the avenue on which you live but with a different last consonant
st + fishing rod and ****
funny coincidence -- last month the young couple who bought the house next to mine when the owner decided to "go condo" got married . . .
Hi babblers, HI to minsk, hurshy, une and jellen
(i decided to work on all the S tiles at once now...)
Hi, Jilly
and next week the young couple on the OTHER side of my house are getting married -- they've flown to L.A. to be feted with a bunch of showers . . .
hey, jillyjill
thanks hurshy...got it
Congrats, Ouwachita!!!
any one need a clue before i go?
Hi Ouwachita
and did YOU have YOUR wedding yet? i forget when it was/is to be?
hi jilly
hursh, not I LOL
oh no, i am thinking of evanadine. sorry!
i think you got confused about that awhile back
yep, that's the bride LOL
thanks ouwachita, but am too early in the grid to justify help...
you both have long names. that's pretty much my only excuse.
:-D
name that proper noun! faerie queene author
Spenser
Spenser!!
ding ding ding!
here's a much harder one
brb
name that proper noun! owner of the OTHER dry goods store in de smet, dakota territory, in its early days, besides harthorne.
had to try couvee -- in French it's "brood or clutch"
hursh, you're insane! LOL
it's not as obscure as it sounds... little house.
Barbie's dream house?
is it on the prairie
well, yes and no
it's on the dakota prairies, but not in the book titled "little house on the prairie" but rather in some of the later ones in the series.
little house on the prairie was in kansas.
KIDDING!!
:)
there once was a lady who lived in a sh** -- that's a small house, eh?
depends whose sh** i guess.
6 more S's and they are killing me...
my daughter wears a 10.5 AAAA
truly canoes
wow.
we all have really narrow feet -- sucks
hard to find "cute" shoes
she could use her feet to create molds for baguette pans.
oops
That's rough, shopping wise...
cute sh***
I have enough trouble with 10 AA
indeed, hursh!
or really long madeleines!
we keep the inner sole people in business! LOL
sigh. if i could at least get ONE more S, then it would be 30/35 instead of 29, which would be so much better.
une said ANOTHER wooooord :)
yikes! sorry!
oh i forgot to mention that i discovered the Best Store in the World on our outing.
do tell!
it has the following three components: books... games... pastries.
wow -- the holy trinity
i know! i can't imagine what else one could want.
sounds like a couple of our local bookstores . . .
there was a book called "careers for your cat", which contained a "meowers-briggs personality test"...
well, need to bow out again and finish cleaning the kitchen...see you all l8r!!
LOL!!!
later, jilly
Later, Jilly
looking at it on Amazon . . .
LOL . . . one of the authors is a "feline career counselor"
ok, 33 to go and taking a break *poof*
:)
Unfortunately, my cats are both retirement age...
Later, Une
How are your cats, hurshy?
well. esp now that i'm home. marty particularly dislikes when i leave the house.
Home? Did I miss an employment development?
no, an anniversary day out
Oh, okay!
name that proper noun! henry the VIII's fourth wife, and the only one with whom he didn't consummate the marriage, anne of ...
My cats have both turned into lap cats lately...
She was German. Cleeves
Cleeves?
(jumping right in without even a proper hello.)
ding ding ding!
Hi, ch
morning all
Hi and hugs all around. Hurshy, if those are grandkids, you have gorgeous genes!
nephew & niece
Well, same genetics :)
similar, yes :)
where did you go hurshy?
the picture is a little old now but the redhead, despite the gender difference, is very very similar to how i looked at that age.
I'm diving back in. Just popped out when I saw the Henry VIII note. * poof *
Hi, lynxxx
i thought you saw that convo, minski... b&b, steam train...
yes but you didn't mention where you went just somewhere in new england. it sounds like a place near where we go in nh.
no, connecticut.
ah ha. nice places there. Old Mystic is nice.
it's a good state. sad that all a lot of people see or know of it is I-95!
brb
This is true, but that's about all I know of it. You drive through CT to get to NYC from MA
my point exactly.
se9? I got the 5, 6, 8, 6 but am having issues with the 9.
5 S words left!
there are at least 2 se8... the 9 is pl of one of them... ancient roman coin
82 total to find though
they come before the ones you appear to be referring to.
I need the SE9 after the SE8 which means the most harsh.
TY Hursh
are you sure there's a 9 there? hmmm
oh...wait...there is a 9 but I might be mistaken about its location. jsut a minute.
only 1 se9 - just checked
no, there isn't. there can't be. there is no 9 letter word starting with those five letters appearing in the grid, nor coming between those two words alphabetically.
sure lynxxx, take the easy way :)
I have a co9 - don't know what the other is.
thanks for that tip - the se9 was the only one i had... looking for the co now...
Don't want to waste my time looking - that would be just plain inefficient
must take a dinner break and make a salad. will be back later. but tehre are 3 9s.
later taters
Later, Minski
i agree, lynxxx, but i went with the morewords/logic approach, whereas you went straight to the list.
Hursh - it is a 'joint' co word - looks weird but logical
is the third letter e? those kind always get me
no
good and yay i found it
i wish the V and Z would swap so we could have sneeze
alright, i'm bored and past 90% so i'm listing.
Not quite that far but about to do the same
cr9 is the other if you want to look for it before you list :)
thanks but I am already hitting mky forehead a lot - the dog is getting a bit concerned about his morning walk
rats - I thought about cr***fallen but not that
what, you don't find yourself kicking people out of your private club saying "away with you and your cr9 jacket, peasant!" ?
happens to me alllllll the time...
Thanks for the cr9...
yw
what do u mean by listing
Hi ivesy - see Lickety Babble clues - link at bottom this page
ok ty new at this lol
if you're new, it's pretty much the only way you will be able to finish grids, unless you are a miraculous person who knows words like su6, which rhymes with a certain male servant.
Taking a break...bbl...
Morewords is a good tool too
bye Jellen
but morewords doesn't do much good without the list.
ps**, want to know a se****
I use it before I list generally
well, i'm done, see y'all later
Bye Hursh, have a good weekend
but how do you know what to look for in morewords if you aren't looking at what you need from the list?
That was the sound of the S words all greyed out!! 76 words left to find.
If you have a seemingly logical start to some words you can use it to search
this isnt for weaklings lol
Depends how much time you have Ivesy, and how stubborn you are. Very addictive - be careful
i c that.. lol.. and ty
Done - anyone want any clues before I go?
OK Byee
Hooray for lynxxx!
I need an re6/18. I think it's the middle one. I have to have sight again and to be alone again
Sorry, Minski...haven't touched the re's yet...
Did you get the present tense of the 1st re 6/18?
Hiya Ivesy.... :-) . and let me tell you folks, this lady is stubborn, AND has a little more time these days !!!
hi all
hi nrkii
did someone mention there is an SE9?... does it build off another word?
There's an se 8/9 combo...I think hurshy mention a roman coin...
If you get it, could you clue it?
there is an se9 but I'm not there yet
roman coin... oh my... will start looking
right now, I'm stuck on my last 3 cr words
great lennon tribute on wfuv.org right now and for a few more hours....listen live
new cd sounds like its going to be good
Thanks, Jeff...
my wife got the whole set
and the stripped double fantasy
okay, I looked up roman coin, and I think the se8 will start sort of like your female sibling
got em
start it sort of like female sibling, and then end with the playing card that is high and low... A**
great clue nrkii..... I would never have stumbled upon that one !!! Thanks :-)

I'm well redturtlehead.Haven't really been here since last weekend.My computer has a major virus.Hate it!
okay... someone clued this earlier..... se 8/45 another way of pronouncing your female sibling.... + highest card A _ _
last 2 letters of that card !
so its se****last 2 letters of highest card
lol hmmmm
Ps4/5! Here is a story of clues. I will not get cl 5/12 to finishing and I do not expect to get any cl6/21 to FWs. So I may as well do my story. My computer has a virus that will co4/5 a lot of money to fix.Whoever started this virus is a lo 5/12. I think there are a lot of lo 6/21 in the computer world. I have inve4/7ed a lot of time trying to fix this computer. I have used lo 4/4 of fo4/8 language trying to fix this myse4/7,but that ge 4/6 me nowhere. My hubby ho 5/18 over me whenever I try to fix it which I don't like.He ho 6/20 all over me each time I try to do something technical with computer so he can watch me.I just want to be a sh 6/30 and sh 5/18 him out of the way.Hubby told me to bring it to a shop to fix it. At first I didn't agr 4/6 with him because I thought I could fix the laptop on my own.Now I think he is right. I think I am going to be a lo5/10 and lo 4/4 this battle with the virus. I can't seem to ou 4/5 it out of my computer although I have tried ov 4/7 and ov4/7 again. I believe this is the worst virus I have ev4/7 se4/4. It just keeps se 4/5ing through my computer. I've lo 4/4 my patients with this computer. I think I need to se 5/16 all ties with this computer 'til I get it fixed. I have suffered from sh 5/12 frustration trying to fix it.I told hubby I'd finally get laptop fixed if he ag5/14 to never open any links his friends send to him,which is how we got virus in the first place. Now I am going to fl 4/7 from this computer because it is driving me nuts.Hubby is le4/4ing at me. He wants to play Farmville the game that he lu 4/8. I am going to go re 4/4 my eyes on a book up in the lo4/7.I hope my clues made se5/10 to you and you were able to find some words.Adios to all
yay go tit
LOL.... I'm not the best clue giver, but seeing as there is no i in the grid, you had to find another way to spell your sibling.
thanks for the story Minver, picking out a few here and there!
yeah that helped how about se 8/55? :)
go tit hahahahaha
the most se6.27, cos
lol typo :P
most dire of all
yes the go tit sort of alarmed me til I looked closer.
ah thanks
lol
I've seen it many times over the years in fast chat !
lol cant believe sl4/5 is a word in the grid :)
they don't allow it in Text Twist, which was my addiction for many years
i love text twist too
i play that all the time
used to play on gamehouse... then they discontinued chat... then on Grab ... they discontinued chat... bummer :-(
Facebook has a TT game, but it's stupid... no pattern to how you play the words... foreign words... etc.
I used to play with my eyes closed as a challenge, because the words followed the pattern of the 6 letter word
yeah i play it on facebook lol
Oh I wish I could have time to finish this grid, but...
the first so 5/12?
I posted 30,000,000 game in gamehouse once
the only 5, 12 I have is a plural cos. sorry but with 94 left, I guess I am missing a few.

How do you know when this game is complete? I just keep making more words.
Bye, stid
shove
finish by finding all 260 available words ;)
oops. keep doing that. typing in the wrong box!

there are 260 words to be found in this grid, when you get them all, you get fireworks
uh.... I found 261...
ru ...
I don't see THAT many! LOL
koda needs to stop distracting me...
hi ru
ru is an overachiever
co 8, please? -- monkeys are tired
ducky, there's a list that can give you clues to the 1st two letters of the words and the point count. Under the grid got to Lickety's Babble Clues and click on it
nan...not as expensive
the first one is co5.12 + what your eyes do (other than blink and stare)
lbd clued the first; I clued the last
There are to co8. One means free and one is co5 + envision
ty -- that 's what I was missing dawger

tr 7/28 -- another word for hair
the first is what a train crosses
tr 5/10 + **evator
what about the 3rd one?

that's the one I need, too
oh, hi all. I've been lurking...

ty jellen
no, not you, nan...my bad...forgot how to read...and then type! :)
should have seen that one!
* leaving cluing to the pros *
I don't think I have the same puzzle. You peeps are referring to hints for words that have an A in them and I don't have an A! eek.
consider "sounds like" ducky
pe6/21?
writing stick + what the eyes do
Ducky, when someone gives a clue with asterisks in them, the asterisks are the letters that are in the puzzle. The other letters are to help you to figure out the word.
evening
thx lbd ;)
Hi, Magy
why do some French words work and others don't??
It's a mystery, hpb...
yeah, I know, it's the dictionary we're using, but sometimes it seems so arbitrary.
thank you! I'm getting better!
ducky... the clues have to be cryptic.... that's half the challenge figuring them out !
hpb, why do some English words work and other's don't?
2nd pe 7/32?
yeah, the many mysteries of life. :)
lbd, is the last pe7 related to the 2 previous?
nan, someone who uses a writing stick???
ty wht
oooh, got it ;)
