phewwww - the computer went into hibernation.
Goodnight flosey, hello lynxxx
Hi Christine -- I've hardly been here at all tonight and have to go to bed now. All of 7 words so far, lol!
Well, sleep well Dear - I saw you have a very busy day/weekend coming up.

Very unlike you Jilli, you must be tired. Goodnight
am i here/??
am i here/?? my words wond go in
Well, sleep well Dear - I saw you have a very busy day/weekend coming up.
seemed to be a long hiccup, my farewell to Jili got eaten up too
Thanks, Christine, and yes, lyn, it's unlike me! The last few and the coming days are unlike my usual ones too! Just over-busy.
Boy, this blooming machine has closed down three times in the past 25 minutes - I don't know if it's my computer or the nightly hiccup.
However, during my downtime, I found 33 words, so --
I'm not sure this is worth the aggravation -- I may just go play Spider Solitaire, and add to my list, to enter them tomorrow.
Is anyone out there ?
I guess I killed the chat. Maybe a nice cup of tea will revive it ?
Hello?
Hellllooooo
What is with this darned game, tonight. I keep getting the redbars.
Hellllooooo
Oh? Haven't seen any yet.
I think everyone gave up, and went home.
Could be...
It isn't the easiest grid.
I have only 50 words, and
I have 63 but it was a struggle.
hello Christine and JC
I shall have to list to find the rest.
Hello, Westford
Hello westford...
I listed at 30 and still have 5 left
I'm still here and only have 41 words, has anyone a clue for either of the i for nbt please
been watching Wallender..love Kenneth Branagh
The words came fairly easily, while I was in my downtime, but it's taken forever to enter them.
I'll probably slap myself once I do list - no doubt I'm missing some silly and what should be obvious little words.
in 5/16 and in 8/55
lots of gerunds JC
hello jenny
Yes. Found a lot of those.
do you want more of a hint?
Hello, jivingjenny)
Hmmm?
yes please - brain not working well this morning :-)
the 8 is someone lower than yourself
I have an in4,4 and an ir5,14...
the 5 is the first 5 letters of that word
hellow Christine
I just realized there's more than one i
in and the way through a fence is in6/24
There's an i that's an 8?
there is JC
Thank you, westford - wouldn't have known that.
Wow, I have all three 8s, without realising it.
Clue for the 8 then, please?
that's the one lower than yourself as in he's my in******
good job Christine
Ah, thank you!
Thanks, I now have all three 8s!!
don't forget our hairy nosed dolphin
I have no idea what a hairy nosed dolphin is.
I think the 9 starts with the prefix for distance
in4/4
in4/4 JC
Oh. That I have - didn't know it meant that.
and might be a boy's name in NZ
What might, the hairy nosed dophin in4,4?
I seem to remember kiwi saying that
I always think of Al Jolson
last 4 letters of Thomas Jefferson's state
Poor child, if that's the boy's name.
rain
might be Maori
rainy
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooh no
that's okay Christine we'll pretend it's a weather report
Christine. If you're going to do that, please share a word that none of us actually have yet? That would be so much more helpful. ;)
sure lol how about the te9?
strikes forehead with open palm.
HAHAHA! ;)
I certainly don't have any te9.
my last 2 the 6 and the 9
I think my brain needs some hot tea - back in a flash.
Morning/Evening all.
hi sood
and that's that.
Fire works !!
Well done West!
Morning, Soodlebum.
Congrats, westford!
thank you sood may I help before I go?
thanks too JC
You're welcome, westford.
Hello JC. Your up and at it early!
It isn't that early.
some new words I'll never use lol
On a Saturday morning - this is early for me!
another mean little grid to start you off
Ah. Busy day ahead - can't lie in bed until noon.
what time is it now? about 9?
9.15 am, West
Yes - 9:15 am.
you're starting and I'm ending
The grid does't look too bad at first glance....
lots of gerunds sood so that helps
Yup - I saw the ING. Thanks West. :-)
I just discovered that 22 Oct will be my 3rd anniversary on here
I might have to bake a cake
I wonder if folk would die of fright if they saw how many hours were spent playing Babble?
I imagine so sood lol
it is definitely an extraordinary place
Fright? Shock, perhaps. It would take more to give someone a fright, I should think?
Sorry - wrong choice of words. But you know what I mean!
Like a hairy toe...
oh do tell please
or a dentist....
I'm watching Antiques Road Show
a man brought in 2 small paintings that someone offered to buy for $900
BBL
they valued them between $60 and $100 K
bye sood and JC and Christine if you're still here
Yes, but just off.
gd morning everybody
I think I murdered the chat!
Hi Ruby. I'm here, grumpily, as woke up at 3:30 and gave up at 3:45
hello grumpy jayk!
it is grey and misty again, can't even see the lake
this one is kind of fun
Hi Ruby, hi Jayk
not easy, though
well, it's pitch dark here!
when does the time change? it is off by 2 wks here, but I can never remeber which way
not until nov here--really late i think. i man in the year, not in nov
I thought it was in Oct and I missed it
yay, half!
9 to go here
a house down our road has their Christmas tree up an lights outside the house!
what is that - the 70 days of Christmas?
that is unconscionable
it s quite depressing, the build up to all that shopping and cooking
every year we say we are going to cut down and not go mad, it never works!
It is a nice way to end the year though. We enjoy the prep and celebrating with family & friends - have cut down a heap on the presents though
Hello all, was lurking but have to say now that is crazy, it really is not Holiday time yet. maybe in November.
now i have killed the conversation, again, i'll disappear, bye
hi Red
No Mummy, you encouraged me to enter. Hello.
I usually lurk in the morning because I have to go to work soon.
are days working out better Red?
Much better, I am still getting used to it, and my schedule this week was a nightmare, but in general it is a lot better, thanks!
How are you and Stewie etc?
Very well. We are having a dash of late Winter weather - even snow in up in the hills - so back to woolies again
does anyone have the probably obvious en/6?
1st course on the restaurant menu
How embarrassing! Thanks FW
congrats Jayk
yeah, but really! how could i not have seen that?
snow wow.
14 C here and I am feeling chilled.
congrats Jay!
going by the buckets I had outside about 4-5 inches of rain over the last 36 hours, and some hail down her in the suburbs. I think the 10 yer drought has broken!
That was our top temperature today too and down to 5 degrees overnight
well that is good news!
too cold for my think blood.

yw Marc
Way to spoil the 9 surprise for everybody FM...... ***Super Ultra Mega hugs to FM***
**Huge hugs back atcha** Brill to see you *does happy dance*
18 left, haven't touched a list in ages, I feel like some kind of a Savant. Having said that now, I guarantee tomorrow's grid will crush my soul.
It took me forever to get that 6 and 9. wtg! sprite is hoping we will get a huge grid for the weekend after all the small ones.
Usually after a cluster of wee grids, we get nailed with like a 500+. *sigh*
Are you still in Autumn or is winter starting to show itself?
Still Fall, temps have been quite reasonable for the time of year. We had the best weather Summer in a very long time. I hope the trend continues. How 'bout across the Pond?
Short spates of summer with some very hot bits now 'tis Autumnal and forecast for the south is first frosts and for the v north first snow flurries.
We just had our first frost here on the Coast on Thursday. That's amazing really, for the first.
Maybe you are due a milder winter (fingers crossed). Hows Uni doing?
She's doign very well. Had a cold this week, and then her Main Squeeze caught a man cold. Both sick at the same time. Glad I wasn't there..... :)
LOL re man cold but hope they are both feeling better soon. Don't know how much of the chat you see but did you hear that Haz is going to be the Mother of the Bridge next summer?
*Bridge even!
Bride !!!
my keyboard is possessed.
lololol Yes, I've been very remiss in not speaking up to Congratulate. It's not every day one snags a bridge as a Son In Law. Quite the catch!
oh ha ha
Glad I never make typos like that. ***Ducks***
Don't make me get the water gun out ... mind you it has gone all rusty due to lack of use :(
helloooooooooooooooo babblers!
TO!!!!!!!!!!!!
G'd Morning TO! ***hands TO a can of air to blow out her keyboard and release that sticky 'o'***
How ya doing TO?
*faints*
***steals TO's brekkie while she's passed out***
I know I almost did too TO
oh hell here goes another reason to stop cleaning
Like you needed a reason to stop cleaning?
so what's new lori?and fm? did you like nationalpunctuation day?
I never need a reason to stop cleaning. Stopping comes naturally to me.
yes but i have to drive to ny today
BRB and Lori don't you dare go anywhere.
I missed National Punctuation day? Dang.
'I' Hate when THAT happens..... :)
***threatens to tip toe out whilst FM is making tea***
lori i can send you the sotry and link
Perfect TO, that way I won't miss it next year.
good morning Babblers :) and Lori don't you dare leave! it's been ages since we've seen you
;)
TO, I thought sure you would be a Philly fanatic, but I see you favor the Yankees :(
yes nono.born and raised in nnj
ah that explains it then
G'd Morning Nono!
... back and Hi Nono
TO I missed National punctuation day somehow :(
How the heck are you Lori?
Good Morning Babble Nation. I think this is the earliest I've gotten NBT and NBS. I must be getting better at this.

Hi Molly

wtg on nbt, i still need a couple
Idid send email though? I am getting forgetful
Life is good Nono. I hope enough time has passed that things are going your way now?
It has to do with describing where a baby grows, but not all the way to the end of the word you might think of.
Nope, I don't have it TO. Mornin' Molly
I've had a few email issues TO so it might have got excluded.
yes, Lori, things are easing out now.
ty Molly, nbt and nbs
wtg peri
Excellent Nono. It's good to hear. You're on your way then. :)
bl
Hello peri.
hold on
I have 4 UW's. Unfound Words are as annoying as acronyms!
*grabs Lori and the nearest piece of furniture*
***Holding on, but I only have enough fuel to circle for 30 minutes***
keep smiling Lori :)
Great minds think alike, and fools are hard to tell apart FM?
good morning everyone
Best option there is Nono. :) Mom!!!!!! <--- G'd Morning
(((Lori))) so good to see you. I hope you all are well
I feel that using additional punctuationalization will help make up for missing National Punctuation day
Good morning ((Mom))
((Nono)) good morning
I shall also endeavor to make up words.......
Now that email came through TO - thanks will enjoy looking at the links later.
Hello Mom
*blinks twice* do I see Lori of the Scotia?

Chores? What are those?

Glad you're feeling better Annie, the version that went around my house was rather well, disgusting. Kids don't seem to mind it though
Oh Nono, really? I have like eleventy kadillion of those. It's a way of life for me. Odd I didn't know that. ***discards information***
Chores are a thing of the past in this house since I got my wonderful cleaner.
sorry to mention them lori
I read Uni and her bf had a bad cold too..hope they are on the mend
see, I can throw things out!
way to go, FMitch
Owl..the Yankees did it! YAY!!!
Yes Annie, she was so, so sick with it but soldiered through. FM, DO NOT start with that....... Hush!
your playoffs start up again tonight, Annie?
*looks around for Haz* me with all the !!!!.
You are safe Annie, she is out at the moment :)
they started last night and the Yankees pulled it off...losing 5-0 and they won 6-5
wow Annie, that's great
yes, i switched to a ovie and returned just as jeter was at bat
time for me to start my day, have to bake an apple pie and make navy bean soup. Youngest is coming up today :-)
bye bye , mom. ((mom))
Annie, glad to hear you're feeling better. Sorry to hear that Uni and her better half have the head cold from hell. My son and I are still getting over it.

sorry to hearof all the sickness and glad you all are on th emend
((Lori)) so good to see you. Have a great day
What is navy bean soup?
((Annie)) it is always a blast when he is around
Molly, glad you are getting better too. Yes, it was the cold from Hell.
or should I say what ingreients make up that soup?
FMitch, it is a white bean
have a great day Mom
I'm gonna' guess it's soup made with navy beans. Do I win a prize?
ding ding ding for Lori
You can't trick me.
((Nono)) have a great day
they are packaged here in KY, and it is the most delicious recipe I have ever eaten for bean soup
It's like being on Redneck jeopardy!
LOL
Ahh a navy bean is called a haricot bean here.
that would be a hoot to watch Lori
It would be a fun thing to do I'm sure, Redneck Jeopardy.

hello again. half this morning
washingmachine repairman was here again, said it was OK, and it is just as broken as it was before, but more than $200 later! Furious
drat, that stinks. How are you Ruby?
fit to be tied! and, of course, it's Saturday afternoon
see you later, must go
later, ruby
No proper nouns...so what is the Oliver Twist character doing in here?
Hi NB...guess sit has become a verb
*it, not sit...typos
well, I guess I'm not complaining. this grid feels like I'm pulling teeth, today.
the gerund ending helps a great deal
S'pose you're right, but I'm not sure if I can handle a grid with no 's' ;)
I know what you mean..we get so used to making words plural or past tense
morning :)
Hi GE
right! oh, I don't know. must be something in the water around here - I have been especially dense recently.
hey, Good :)
this grid could use a few more t's in my opinion
this grid could use a firm backhand to the face, in my opinion ;)
oooooh...
someone is in a mood
*projecting inadequacies* ;)
ruru, I love your icon. great family photo.
thanks
my dad's family
good morning, babblers :)
hi nan

which one is your dad, ruru?
the tall boy on the right in black
he was the eldest
i'm getting ready to watch my pregnant niece's 3D ultrasound live online to find out if she's having a boy or a girl
that's exciting.. our good friend is having a baby any day
ooh Good, that's so awesome!
he was handsome, ru
GE, that is so exciting
a large and handsome family!
hope my computer works, such things makes it go a little wonky sometimes
I had lots of cousins
I'll bet!
is everyone in CA?
aren't big families fun ruru!
mostly Cal now.. but one in Indiana and one in Washington and one missing in Arizona
oh dear -- missing for how long?
it was nice as a kid to have lots of big gatherings
he got into drugs and vanished 30 years ago
that is too sad!
any clues for the in 8 or at 8 -- they are eluding me
I am done. would anyone like a clue before I leave?
in Nov we are getting a new family portrait done with my parents and their decendents and there will be 41 of us (plus the inutero one)
at8 dressing someone up
congrats, annie
oh for heavens sake -- ty ruru
wow good..
I don't have the in
in8----not superior....notice last 4 letters
in8 - to be lacking, less good, in****** to something else.
NB gave a better clue...less transparent
i'm losing wieght for the occasion but realized i don't really have to - we will be mere specks on a page
well it's not indifferent!
I have lost 25 lbs on my diet so far..
don't count on it, Good -- we had a group photo taken at our family reunion -- over 80 of us -- it was enough to make me go on a diet!
excellent ruru!
ru, that is awesome
wow! -- well done ruru. What diet are you following
I know.. it feels so much better
well i plan on keeping on plan regardless
It is kind of the South Beach diet but alternating months
I must be on my way, bye dear babblers
Now that I am oldeer it is harder to drop pounds
bye annie... have a nice day out there
I lost 40 pounds on SB 2 years ago -- went off the diet at Christmas a year ago and have managed to put it all back on since! -- trying to convince myself to get back on the diet. I do love my food so it is very difficult.
i'm doing weight watchers online and have lost 10 lbs in 8 weeks, so far so good
that's great GE.. keep going
it is so hard to make it permenant isn't it nan
I'm trying to put on weight and finding it difficult, currently - supposedly have to pull 15lbs out of nowhere!
not seeing that in 8
i'm trying to fe** your NB but i can't quite get there :)
there's an ocean in the way, that's why ;)

hi, babblers
*listening to ruby's son's music*
ha! years ago, i wrote a short story called, "Justine."
hello all
ar6 pls
nm
would you clue the ar6 pls
nm got it
hello all. How is this grid?
Kind of a drag ..
I seem to be discovering that torgone. Thanks
32 left for me ..
well done. Have you ben here for hours then?
On and off, soon to be off again ..
ar6 like you an**** my head with oil, my cup overflows... (oh, you got it, but, maybe someone else will need it)
I will have to do that too. Words are not just jumping out
gosh, i haven't found any of the 8's or the 9!
thanks hurshy
I did. Thanks hurshy
you're ever so welcome
say, has anyone got both J's? i have the grand ballet leap...
I have the j 4 which I think is the one you have
use the higher point tile in the middle of that word instead
in8 less important
i think reeat should be a word. cows chew cud, right?
thanks wild, thanks good enough!
I need a re6
thanks wildcat
re6/30 counterargue, disprove a claim
re6/18 turn from one's wrath
got it for fireflies
hagd e1
i'm still not familiar enough with text speak. it usually takes me a minute to decide if something is a weird typo, or something that means something if i can decipher it properly...
I have no idea what she said
have a good day everyone
by hurshy
no, that's what she said :)
oh! see, I am way less educated than you!
my kids know to phone me
i don't think it's a matter of education... just... puzzling it out.
well, i'm very stuck, and on the dreaded 14, unsurprisingly.
ey 5/14 anyone?
add... add... um... let's see... the beginning of french "to laugh"
not me
thanks hurshy
let's see what else... the whole word is also an anagram of a famous study bible...
got it
I hate that word
it is rather unpleasant looking, isn't it. it looks like sauerkraut tastes.
halo, kids! doing a bit of tweeting again, thought I might as well try to finish this!!
clue for the tr 6 / 18 please
don't have that one yet......
Could I get a clue for re6/30, please?
hi all. around for about 10 minutes, so I can clue. The tr6/18 is a chemistry term, means a compound with three double bonds.
if you re6/30 something you prove it to be wrong
halo, NB!!
have ya finished this??
re 6 means to argue against
Hey, George :) see you've been confusing my cousin :P yeah, I'm done, just had a free 10 minutes so I thought I'd stop in.
don't get that tr6/18 clue at all, then I'm not educated as you must be!!
god you must be bloody good at this then??
confusing him?? was trying to make things less confusing by explaining them--didn't do a good job of it then eh??
not at all, it was like pulling teeth, took me ages! sorry though, I suck at giving clues. Remember A level chemistry like it was yesterday ;)
your not on the messy then??
yeah, well some of us never got that far, I left school at the age of 15!!
ahh, he'll probably understand from your explanation! looked funny at first though. boy needs to get 'flaming' ;)
eh?? when did I say 'boy needs to get flaming'??
oh yeah, he needs to get that word? ha!
yeah!! glad you explained, I had no idea how. Didn't fancy looking up the Korean for that!
ha, ha!! wonder if he'll understand my explanation!?
there's a funny bit on J's page!!
oh yeah? I'll take a look - I should have coached him on a bit more colloquial English!
he already gets confused by my slang.
who, J?? ha!
yeah, it's sorta important to know our slang, ha!
is there any slang used in Korea??
yeah, just so he doesn't think we set fire to our celebrities here :P
yeah, I think so - not that I know much of it, since my Korean is basic at best!
ha, yeah! he thought J was on fire!!
well, being on yahoo with us will certainly be an education for him ;) he is such a sweet person though. Very polite; noticed he called you Mr ----- in your guestbook!
Hello...
halo, Jellen!!
yeah, NB, told him not to do that, ha!
How are you today, NB and George?
Hi, Jellen :)
It's just culture clash George, would have seemed very rude to him, to call you 'George' straight away!
I'm reet Jellen :) and yourself?
I have been on the phone and have still not gotten re6/30 is it a compound word so it would be and re + 4 letter word?
I'm good...found a friend to go with me tonight, so concerns allayed!
It's not a compound word, no. think re + a woodwind instrument that makes sound when you blow air over the hole - minus an 'l'. I'm a terrible cluer and that's all I can think of!
I finally got thanks all for bearing with me.
the one i have is not compound, marc - to re**** an argument
re 6/30 = re* (sports official) + *** (slang for a SUV)
Got to go thanks
Hi, LA, bye Marc...
sorry, NB, been a bit busy tweeting!!
George, you always seem to disappear when I enter chat...I'm getting a complex!
:-)
eh, Jellen?? I was busy tweeting on Twitter and updating my yahoo page at the same time!!
and still am!!
No worries George, I'll have to be off in a sec anyway - Frank just got in and I'm up for a cuddle on the sofa with the cats!
Okay, then...
oh yeah, I see
I'm always busy when I'm on here, so there's gonna be lots of lapses, you know how it is! folk like to tweet and DM messages to me they expect responses to, silly of them, lol!
lol
lol! too popular ;)
I still have 38 left, should probably give up!!
yeah, that's it, dunno why?!?
that's how I felt about last night's grid. Literally took J giving me clues word by word! And today's is nasty too.
yeah? well you got today's all right??
so you must be a lot smarter than me, cos I'm not!!
Could I have a clue for the upper left U, please?
female organs of reproduction, Jellen
wombs!
Thanks, George!
Think Nirvana album, In Ut***, change the last vowel!
your welcome, Jellen!
And the bottom right O?
rowing!!
Thanks, Nancy!
LOL. Your clue is better, George. Didn't get why you were just yelling 'wombs' for a minute :P
rowing a boat, like, not arguing, ha!
what you row a boat with, and the gerund ending!
ha, NB! no, don't normally yell that!!
Oh, got it...Thanks both!
nbt
I yell lots of stuff but never that, or they might wanna lock me away, lol!
the Boy's gone mental!! yeah, could just see it!
lol
Well, just think I shoulda paid more attention in biology, if my first thought is music and not wombs!
Cracking album though, remember "All Apologies" was the first song I ever taught myself on guitar!
yeah, probably so NB!!
well, can't say much for your musical taste, lol!
Hah! Well wish I was old enough to have experienced Nirvana when they were still going, Cobain died when I was four.
you didn't miss much, ha!
not exactly my cup of tea!
phantom: eternity
Oh, Nancy, you make me feel old...
yeah, me too and bet I'm a lot older!!
Totally my cup of tea. Bleak and angry ;) Nah, I like all sorts. Wish I could've shifted my electric guitar and CD collection with me when I left home!
oh yeah, I'm 3 years older than you, Jellen
Not so old, then, George!
old enough, big 50 next June!!
aww no, you couldn't take your music with ya??
oh yeah, reminds me...........
nah, very limited in what I could take - just what I could carry, really!
So sad, Jesse...
I'd like to suggest Keith Caputo to you NB. If you haven't heard him before, you might like him if Cobain is good to your ear.
Hello, Niliamne
well, I was gonna ask my sister if she could send some of my stuff on, but my parents dumped it! So I'm putting a positive spin on it and calling it a fresh start.
Hi Jellen
Hi Neliamne...I'll check him out, always on the lookout for new music to love!
Same thing happened to Tim when he left his crazy ex-girlfriend...he had loads of collectibles that he had to leave behind...
Same thing happened to Tim when he left his crazy ex-girlfriend...he had loads of collectibles that he had to leave behind...
Oops, sorry for the repeat...
you can get loads of mp3s off me, NB!
being a DJ I have a massive music collection
aww that's too bad, Jellen--and NB, sad to collect so much then just have to leave it!!
my morals don't allow me to download... I'm a GOOD boy, George ;)
not saying you should do that, NB, saying I can send ya stuff
just to have on your computer, like
well, could have been worse, eh? I count myself lucky I packed what I was taking before I came out, else I would have been chucked out with nothing!
like what I'm sending you now, your not refusing that are ya?? ha, ha!
yeah, can't understand your parents at all, vicious!!
when you've not done anything wrong at all!!
Very lucky Jesse...and I agree with George!
well that's different; that I couldn't buy ;)
yeah, plus it's my own music so if I say it's all right it's all right!!
exactly. can't exactly arrest yourself for piracy, can you? :P
eh, probably not and don't think anyone else could either!
do you use the msn messenger, Jellen?
Yes
oh yeah? can send you what I'm sending Jesse on there then, if ya want--explain there, put me on by my firstname.lastname@hotmail.co.uk if ya want!
without the apostrophe in my last name of course, ha!
Trying to load it now...comp is incredibly slow today...
all right
Going to have to restart comp...brb...
Back...
in8?
Sorry, cos...
blah. ty :)
Ooh, got it!
do share :)
No one can make you feel in8 without your consent...Eleanor Roosevelt
ty... oddly enough thats my favorite quote lol.. i should have known.. eleanor is my hero
nice clue, Jellen. ty
Hi, mich...thanks!
Finally passed the halfway point!
excellent hero to have
yes... i agree.. both Roosevelts.. fdr and eleanor..
Oh, and I should go to the PB for fe 4/7...
im disabled.. so i look up to fdr -- a disabled man elected president a record 4 times
he was a great president. It's too bad that the media has made physical looks such an important part of being a good leader. And not just "good looks" but the sense of "fitness"
right. the homely of the homeliests can be amazing..
like barbara jordan of texas
my very first boss was an unatrractive woman who ran for governor.. her opponent called her "a tax cheat. the truth is as ugly as she is"
she lost in a landslide.
not nice.
no but she attacked back her new slogan was "not just another pretty face"
which is honest in her case, sounds like
7s, 8s, 9 done
good for you!
Hi, Good Enough
yeah,, she was amazing,.. but she was victim of the 1994 republican wave
Hi Jellen
all right, diving back into the grid. Nice chatting
I think it's time for a break, unless GE wants to clue a couple of 8's and a 9?
30 left
47 left here...
well everything ends with the gerund except...
except the in8 that you already got (i think)
Don't worry about it...I don't have the surrounding words, either...
well fl5 group of ships then add gerund
Thanks, GE!
cooking in oil
Ooh, got the at 8!

If I could just get Koda to lay down on my toes, I could hold out on the blankets and heater a little longer!

hope the kids are treating yu well, that's all
I would just be happy for a bathtub that is the right size for me and with enough water to actually be warm when filled...
had a rough week in that department doren, and I think I know what it isn't working but there is not a d4 thing I can do about it.
about ten years ago the stone patio outside my bck door was all coming up and needed to be replaced and it was so expensive, i had to take out a pension loan. My son said, as long as you're borrowing, borrow some more and put in the hottub you know you've always wanted. i thought he was crazy. but what a good idea it turned out to be
three weeks to go... will sleep for a week when I am done
try finding a bathtub I can 'relax' in stid...not sure they're out there unless one lives in a mansion or a home decorating show room!
tsk tsk...it's still nineties in the day and sixties at night..it might be a bit chilly..bu no blankets yet...
your children are pretty smart, doren1
no kidding, dorens! clever son
middle school kids are so hard to deal with these days, but you'll win them over. give it time
I would be happy -- deliriously so -- with a 5' long old-fashioned claw-foot tub such as I had when in college. The ONLY redeeming feature of that rat hole slum apartment I lived in
the hot tub is tiny... a three seater, nestled in beside the stone patio and the stone wall up the hill. it is so unobtrusive and cute
*ignoring PAV for obvious mean streak*
my comfort zone is in warm sunny climes...I didn't mean to offend anyone...peanut butter cookies anyone?
i'd love some, thanks pav
raspberry lemonade?
oh well, just passed halfway. back to coding data. I am enjoying this piece... LOL perhaps I ought to revert to admin assistant.
<-- I prefer cooler climates...just the season didn't go from hot one day to cold the next...a little shocking on the system...
mmmm. PAV, you are my new bestest friend. *grateful look as I wander off with refreshments* *micro-poof*
mmmm. PAV, you are my new bestest friend. *grateful look as I wander off with refreshments* *micro-poof*
i like all seasons, just wish winter were one month shorter
back in a bit. (and I swear I didn't hit that key twice!)
like, if spring really DID start march 21, that would be just lovely
3 months each...that's all I ask for...
yes, pini, but march always feels like winter here.. snow and cold and everything is bare and ugly
oh, wait...make that 2 months each with a transitional month in between!!!
stid...af5 5 classes in calc, I found that even for teaching, one doesn't need the higher math 'cept t show that one can do it for testing purposes only... My mom hated algebra when she was in teaching school, and af5 retiring found it wasn't needed either...granted her degree was in bilngual elem ed...
i could go for that... seems we haven't had much transition lately.... go straight from winter into spring... last week i was in shorts and this week feels like winter
and then some, dorens..
I think we're having fall now...hence the cooler weather and spots of rain...(cooler being 90s) "fall" fall starts in Dec and lasts for one month before winter arrives for two months and then spring is on for one month and summer is here again
well, hot tub (and my buddy) beckons... later, guys
enjoy dorens
stop bragging pav
it gets cool/cold here fore winter, but no snow on the ground...can find 12' at Crater Lake in June tho! (only 3 hrs away)
we on other hand have 2 mons+ of fall...4-5 mon winter- 3 month spring
and 1 month summer of 95+ weather
(that's 3 hrs south of me!)

yeah, they should do one with me but never been invited to!!
mind you it's just as well really, might find too many nuts if they shook our family tree, ha, ha!!
i am sure it can be done..the question is...can i be bothered to do it when i am not enjoying it
wouldn't mind them taking mine even further!
too many nuts would fall out and hit them on the head, like!!
hi babblers!
your not sure what can be done, carleekat??

this grid george...ask rth.....they have twist a certain way for me....backwards to most babblers
ask who?
rth george...
RedTurtleHead - rth
me, sorry, still settling into the couch. carlee is picky about her grifds.
oh yeah, silly me not to get that anagram!!
acronym, I mean!!
even sillier, since I play an acronym game, lol!
in my head...rth is ruth
red, send you an invite to connect on yahoo pulse?
least I think I did, yeah?
ruth?
not red...as scarlet ( babble player who no longer babbles ) is red
you probably did george, but I dont use it!
I have scarlet on facebook...
when u come online in babble..i read redturtlehead as ruth...rth
well you have a page there and think a few babblers in our network mighta tried to connect with ya?!?
so do i rth...my family spent xmas with her and beloved and her gorgeous daughter a couple years ago
yeah, thought it meant Ruth at first!
interesting George, I dont use yahoo for anything...
question is..do i have u on fb??? i am carleekat there too ust tack a hotmail.com after it..and u will find me
just tack*
dunno.... I will check. very wiped out today, so sorry...

I don't use it for personal reasons, only have a professional page there that's handled for me and I don't do anything personal with it
oh we've got a network of babblers on yahoo, even play a fun acronym game on there, ha!
except whoever's setting the daily acronym words for us is picking some hard ones to acro, lol!
I couldn't do today's word at all, brain wouldn't think up anything for it!!
well....i guess we killed the chog
no Carlee. I worked 10 hours, got to go home 2 hours early and decided to go running, just for some reason not feeling too great...Asthma acted up etc...

The band wasn't at the location on their MySpace post...It was in the middle of nowhere, and I had a friend come meet me there....
hi cosd

Hi, cos

Hi all -- yet another super-busy day tomorrow. Didn't finish this grid -- I gather it was a mean one.

jill - it was rather easy for me
Still don't know if the band had a gig, because James never answered his phone or text...
bummer jell
Ah, but cos, you're obviously a genius ;)
2 minutes, 24 words. not going to happen.
*plops down in easy chair* hey all.
oh, Jilli...I have some semi-bad news...learned on Thursday that my Scottish heritage may be slightly off...may not be from Aberdeen after all...but Nairn, instead :(...we're doing some heavy research to confirm or deny :/

Ended up driving another hour to a little bar where I sat and had one drink before driving 30 minutes back home...
