hi flosey!
gez i have been sitting here thinking that 10 was not spelled correctly so i didnt bother trying it i am so stupid!
thx dee
need the lowest lone T for nbt
yqw
i was spelling the last half of it wrong
hi flosey
I tried the 10 with the wrong "end"
lowest t is superlative ta8
got the ta 8 -- is the 10 related?
ta 10 is compound word... starts similarly
english, josh, english...I wouldn't a superlative from an underlative!
don't know, nan -- ta6 and ta10 are, though
* wouldn't know...
josh thought the TA 8 was already superlative?
superlative means most or least something
* thinking *
NBT!

thanks for the list, dee, but I'm not seeing anything so will head for bed -- g'night all.
nite
Here are the instructions ARB gave us for putting list in excel (ty arb):
sleep well, Jillibus
Instructions from ARB for putting babble grid results into profile: • Copy word list into an Excel spreadsheet (the word, the number of letters and the points go into 5 columns (because of ? for dictionary). • Then insert a column after the word. • Then write a formula in the first line after the word, example - " =left($B1,2)" (the $ makes the formula absolute) • Then copy the formula all the way down (put cursor in bottom right of the top cell with the formula and drag down to end of word list). • Voila you have 3 columns with first 2 letters, length, points
josh, I understand your purpose of the numbers
have a great day / eve all! *poofing with hugs*
I don't have Excel, but it doesn't matter, I don't ever get fireworks that way.
gort- i'm not really that special, there are others faster than me. i'm just deliberate and occasionally remember common weirdos very quickly
I'm a guru!
G'night and *poof*
you are great arb!!! I have used your instructions many times now!!! Greatly appreciated!
Just a computer professional, that's all
good to know if I ever have other questions...:~)
I used to be a computer whiz... til I quit... have lost skills unfortunately, especially on the new office...
Sure
hmmmm....digesting josh's modesty and arb's instructions and coming up with a sticky, gooey, wordy concoction
I hate the new Word... hate where functions are on the ribbons... illogical to me
I'm retired too, but I do a lot of volunteer work using my computer skills to help NGO's I support -- give them much more than I could with money donations.
super nice, and I am sure extremely appreciated!
I don't like the new Word/Excel either, but I guess we'll get used to it in time.
It's a great gift time. And now we have more to spare than when we were working full time.
I honestly don't think so, and I think eventually they will change some of it back to way it was... too many workers complaining
Hello, again, how was dinner?
slows speed immensely... well I am *poofing* for sure
Good thanks. Only an omelette tonight. But very good nonetheless. What about you?
Sleep well.
ty
Christine - how many words please?
Sometimes volunteer time is more time-consuming than working full time!
Steak, fries & steamed veg. Then, for a snack, I just ate the salad with the rest of the steak.
I certainly have found that ARB.
128 words
OMG!
Bye everyone. SHalom.
Bye ARB. Nice to meet you.
Sleep well, ARB
No sleeping here -- it's 8 a.m! Time to do some of that volunteering.
Volunteer well, ARB
OMGosh, I killed the chat, yet again.
Hi Christine if you are still there :)
How many words today
128 gran
128 gran
Thanks
Evening flosey.
hello FM
and gran
after midnight here and I really should be gatting to bed
you night owl you!
yes, always have been, FM
Im going into hibernation mode as the days shorten.
I find late night so peaceful!
True, few interruptions and time to do what you want (inc babble of course).
I just slunk in, to sign off before the torchbearing mob came in, demanding yje name of She-Who-Killed-Our-Chog (yet again).
awe Christine it wasn't your fault!
never fear Christine, sleep well
Babble was being buggy - I had to come in and go out several times as it was taking about 10 secs to enter each word but it seems to be OK now.
Well, now that y'all are here, have a good day. I probably will be back after a cup of tea and a while with my book.
down to 23 words, will have to find them tomorrow
goodnight all
OK TTFN Christine and sweet dreams flosey.
Iguess there's no Lickety-list, but ValleyMomDee has the stats in her profile.
sleep well, Flosey.
Good morning/evening all.
Greetings Haz.
It looks like the letter t is trying for world domination.
I've been out de-icing the bird bath this morning v v heavy frost overnight!
One can get quite tangled in the t's today.
Oh really? It's a bit damp here although there were clear skies at bedtime and cold enough for breath to condense.
Yup, but the sun is shining so will not complain.
I changed over my summer wardrobe for the winter one yesterday - I could hold out no longer.
lol don't blame you - I have gone for the layered look today.
It's always a bit of a surprise when I open up the storage bag with jumpers etc because I usually forget what I have.
I have that pleasure yet to come - my reaction is usually I am fed up with that and that and that and get the bags ready for the charity shop.
I wonder if the charity shops have really busy times right about when people are changing over their clothes?
I think they do and some can be really picky if you are trying to get rid of winter things in summer and visa versa.
They'll turn away anything tha's not Versace or a dry cleaning label stuck on?
The worst put down I had was when I took a designer coat to a shop that sells on your behalf and was told that they only take clothing that is less than 2 years old.
* or has a dry cleaning label..
Less than 2 years old? Remind me not to attempt to take stuff to that shop!
I know! but this was in Ascot.
Obviously I was not up market enough.
Ah well, that explains things. Ascot is a law unto itself.
HAve you found the 10 yet - a great word.
No, I'm building up to it, found a couple of 8s.
okey dokey :) Am going to put the kettle on so back in a few.
See uou shortly.
... and back.
That was fast!
It is a fast kettle :)
Did you watch 'The Apprentice' last night?
'fraid not. You will have to find Ata to discuss the pros and cons with.
Hello both.... I did Haz.
The funniest bit was when a loudly confident woman spent ages on her calculator and then informed a hotel that they would charge them £1.82 for a bread roll!
death
I have not been enamoured with the last few series, it has lost it's lustre for me. Morning Karys!
Good morning, Karys, nice to see you!
That must be the white blonde ?
The very one, Karys.
How nice to see smiley cat again!
I havn't watched it before. She seemed to get through by default !
Bet that went down well Haz
It takes a while every series to get to know the individuals, I'm still trying to fit faces to names. The blonde one is Melissa and she's been loud throughout.
Thank you Mitch... I am usually hrtr , lurking.
There was such an expression of disbelief on the faces of the hotel people but she didn't even seem to catch on that it was a ludicrous price.
OOps... now we can see why I usually lurk !
LOL was just working out that hrtr = here.
She was one of those people who ride on the backs of others , I think.
Oh, listen, FM got over those fears a long time ago, she just merrily typos on and we're very forgiving.
Yes but I am a bit pedantic about myself.
Forgiving yes but let me forget .... Nooooo!
I would agree, Karys, she's full of her own importance but if it hadn't been for the efficiency of the bakery production team, she'd have fallen flat on her face.
But back to the blonde, I was so disappointed that she didn't get her cuome uppance !
But the typos are entertainment value around here, FM.
I know, I was sure the way things were going that it was going to be a disaster for her, but no. Hopefully she'll have learned a bit of humility but I doubt it.
In my defence for the typos, I am trying to eat my first bowl of porridge of the season.
true true Haz and I am so glad to have brought so much entertainment to babble land over the years :)
We should maybe write to the PM to suggest FM gets an MBE for services to babble entertainment. What do you think, Karys?
It is definiately porridge weather today.
She certainly keeps me amused !
MBE = Mistress of Babble Entertainment.
LOL!
I can just here it now 'Step forward Cinders Ermintrude - MBE'
*hear
That just fits the bill nicely !
Haz! good grief - typoism is obviously catching - you need to get a booster shot!
Isn't it shocking? I'm obviously feeling the need of some sort of tonic to get me sorted out.
mothers ruin and tonic - I never would have believed it of you Haz
Hello everyone
Evening lynxxx
I'm horribly ashamed, lynxxx. The funny noise you hear is me wailing in the corner.
Must catch the milkman... bbl !
See you shortly, karys, don't forget to come back!
*Has a mental image of Karys chasing the milkman with a huge butterfly net*
So, lynxxx, how are you? Any news on the job front?
do you still have milkman in the UK?
Oh yes. Pints delivered to the doorstep, sadly no longer in glass bottles.
Mine comes every other day, it used to be daily.
Aparently we do but I haven't seen one for years.
heya all,, wink to anne38
I am well. No news on the job "still considering". However we did buy a sofa from there yesterday. I think I am recovering today with pangs of "did I do the right thing"
hi Monsieur D
Has the sofa been delivered yet? You'll probably feel fine once it's in situ.
Are you in Australia Mons D or a relative from the old country?
nop, i'm frenchy
Back... we went to Ikea last week for a picture frame and came back with a sofa ! ( well it has to be delivered really )
Yes, I am sure it will be fine Haz - now just need to paint, carpet, get done reupholsterof armchairs and ottomans ! Are you free?
That's what I call impulse shopping, Karys.
Delivered and put together if from Ikea - have fun!
Not normally a thing husband would do, so it must be good !
I'm your woman when it comes to picking out stuff, lynxx, I'll paper for you but you'd thank me not to pick up a paintbrush!
I'll do the painting then.
Thanks lynxxx !
B taught me well.
hellooo from me and a Hobbit flopped across my lap
Hello Ata!
yay Ata! and Hobbit :)
Sorry - have to disappear for a bit to discuss dinner
Here are more revelations. Yesterday, FM revealed herself to have had lumberjack ambitions, today she's a painter. The secrets keep tumbling out!
Good morning, Ata! How are you?
someone won't leave me alone ...
Hello Ata
Ata, look - Karys' smiley cat is here. Karys as well, of course.
I have many hidden talents Haz.
hi smily cat!
oooo, the mind boggles mitch !
I know, no wonder you're in line for that MBE, FM.
*grin*
Now, let's see if Ata watched The Apprentice... if Hobbit will give her peace.
i did i did!!!
And? Melissa was quite something, wasn't she?
I knoew she would have watched.
she was ... and delivering 16 roll ...and glace cherry muffins
excuse typung hard with dog snout helping
better dog snout than 1 vowel less
I thought it was hilarious when she tried to tell the man that the cherry muffins looked good. And £1.82 for a roll. Why didn't her brain stop her mouth saying a figure like that?
i *know*. lmao. shes lucky her team won
pass Hobbity over here for a while so I can cuddle her and you and Haz can talk 'Apprentice'
gd morning everybody
all is calm around here again.
the cherry muffins looked awful
back. Hi Ruby
Morning ruby.
Good morning ruby
hi ruby
Oh, poor FM. We'll have to talk later, Ata, the others won't know what we're on about.
Good morning, ruby.
Washing machine on its way?
is monsieur d really French?
Noooo I was looking for an excuse to cuddle Hobbit not stop you talking about the prog!
i might have persuaded hobbit that she can guard me just as well from a metre away rather than on top of me!
husband agreed this AM AND I think that Max had an insect in his ear as he seems OK today. Panic for nothing, but out dogs are like children, at least for us old ladies with empty nests!
how is your knee, Ata?
Hooray! I knew he'd have to give in in the end.
I'll buy the new machine tomorrow and will try to negotiate some of the repair costs, as it is the same store and their repairman....in French of course. Maybe Monsieur D could help me.... hahah
i dont have an empty nest i have a spaniel filled nest!
it has a dog flopped over it keeping it warm
it is lovely to have a dog care for you like that!
You should definitely get something off the new machine, ruby.
I agree, after all, it was their repairman who said "Oh, it's just a part!"
That Yiddish/Eastern European village is here again after a long absence(sh6)
"Sunrise, sunset...."
and that sh6 wore my monkeys out.
But they have done a great job and I am done.
no jewish monkeys
I remember trying to clue it to Flask using the Tea-folk as a reference point... I haven't seen Flask for ages.
sh plus infamous Vietnamese offensive, end up with a consonant.
Rubyfoo, how is your husband?
we nearly nearly have atlatl too
that was hobbit .....
That's right, blame an innocent dog...
I spoke with his MD and he came on Tuesday and prescribed a steroid for his back plus a stronger pain killer, and it seems to be helping
I thought he had hiccups.
she leant on the enter key!
yeah right!
Rubyfoo, I'm glad he'll have some relief.
that is too cute. If Ruby or Max sat at the keyboard, it would disappear
Hi Christine.
she really did!!
you will be blaming Sily next ;)
Hellooo again.
she's on top of the boiler well away from the action!
Hello, Christine.
thank you for asking, Christine
Nesting on the boiler is a good place to be today.
how cold is it in the UK? We are very close to frost here, but not quite
snow on the mountains, though
she doesnt really fit .... let me find a pic
well below zero first thing this morning ruby.
oooph!
there. you can't really see here, but her whole backside hangs over the edge
talking about me? ;)
morning all
good morning sprite
Good morning, sprite.
spritey!
*hugs Ata* How are you?
good good!
glad to hear that. Knee healing?
nobody would every talk about your back end!
getting there!
hi Sprite
hello lynxx
lol well they might... and it might be hanging over some edge or other. But was just kidding.
good! Very glad. You aren't a person to be limited in her walking abilities, Ata. *evil grin*
any clue for the 10 or even for an 8?
lol I have one 7. Nothing bigger yet.
me, too, one 7
ta8 - the sort of clothes you wouldn't even donate to a charity shop.
thanks Haz *thinking*
hmm, have several 6's and 7's with ta, but will have to monkey the 8 (looking for Jewish monkeys from the sh6)
LOL re sily Ata and good morning spritey sprite :)
though some people would ...
Superlatively unfit for wearing to a ball?
yay, thank you, haz
brilliant, thanks. Hadn't noticed that ending yet. Hi FM and lyn :D
sprite, you seen that atlatl is a phantom?
I know, Ata, but honestly, if you're not prepared to wear something because it's a mess, why would you expect other people to buy it?
great ending!
Glad you got it, sprite and ruby.
I thought potatoes for the ta6/18 so does that mean the 8/40 is the best potatoes?
don't you hate it when that happens, Ata!
oh yes .... its just ridiculous what people expect charity shops to sort through
And not that I'm one to gossip, but the biggest word starts the same way.
oh you finally found it Haz ? :)
thank you, thank you, haz!!!!
i thought that was 2 words ..!
I did! A nice word, as you said, FM.
yay
got to find it now, lol.
and if a dog is a gossip, is he a ta******il
yes ruby :)
lol ruby
brilliant again, got it, thanks
la8/45 - a superlatively indolent lisper.
lol fab
Just trying to imagine a conversation between Spangle and Hobbit and what they would say about their 'mums'
hahah hath!
they wouls say we are wonderful and perfect!
Spangle has signed a no secrets policy.
We induced her pawprint with the promise of daily food.
silverclaw might be a different matter
"You mean you get REAL food? Every day? That is amazing!" "Yeah, but your mum actually takes you for long walks."
Ata made a typo! Ata made a typo. I am clutching at straws here if you hadn't guessed :)
We had to insist on the no secrets policy because of George spending so much time here.
already apologised for all typos today!
That would still be George C and not B. George, right?
I just found an at8 on my own *chuffed*
You can blame the anaesthetic, Ata. And it takes a while for brain cells to regenerate after you've donated.
George C is correct.
he came for cofee? everybody's dream......
yay, take a le4 from Ata's book on smugness and be smug, rubyfoo
doesn't happen often, that's for sure
still dog nose "helping"
Coffee? He lives in a cupboard under my staircase, ruby. This is his refuge from stress and the paparazzi.
I would give him the guest room, would even turn the heat on
Haz offers him a haven of peace.
You should see Haz's "cupboard" under the stairs - most of us would kill for such an apartment!
See? All that fuss is what he wants to be away from... so very few people understand that. He is lucky to have you, Haz.
He is. Peace and quiet is all he needs.
and whist at it, can I remind everyone that I lent GC to Haz in the first place.
I heard he left running.
!
don't know why, though :)
No, he said he was very well treated, but Ascot was just too close to London for comfort.
yay, half!
gratz
lol
I have to make lunch for husband because I'm going to a religious movie with a neighbor who I think is trying to convert me.
she means well and has been wonderful in helping me with the "dog affair"
always a pleasure, rubyfoo. Have fun.
Bye ruby.
Bye, ruby.
{{everybody}}
I'm going to take a break as well. Back later. Toodle-oo!
Toodles Haz.
don't break too much, Haz, bfn
Bye!
bye dear!
finally managed to persuade hobbit that she can guard me from by my legs. much easier!
awwwwww the sweetheart.
how long have you been away?
a day!!!
lol! She is very protective of you then. Somehow she knows they hurt you.
yes, she really is
aren't animals amazing. Am still so happy with your dog advice.
:):)
we are going to that TTouch workshop now, every saturday. Terra is the only 'normal' dog there, all the others are totally neurotic. Because their owners are. The lady that teaches says she is so happy with Terra there. That most people wait until something has become a real problem before they start looking outside the box.
awwwwwww wonderful :)
it really is. He is such a happy dog. Makes me smile no matter what.
and that is the wonder of having a dog :)
spaniels are the best happy dogs (I think)
scottish terriers are very happy dogs too
oh... we taught him to let go of things he shouldn't eat or damage by giving him a command, taking the thing and exchanging it for a treat. And now, when he wants a treat, he actually goes looking for something he is not supposed to have, then brings it to me, sits down and starts chewing it, looking expectantly to me.
sorry, back and forward, lots happening here
I hope good things, lyn. And yes, I like scottish terriers. Terriers are a bit more headstrong, I think.
spaniels smile though :)
smart Terra! too smart perhaps!
smart, isn't it!
yes they smile. It is the most wonderful thing.
as a child, I had an Airedale terrier at home. A cute dog. But as stubborn as a cat.
how many words today?
128
thanks sprite
yvw
They are showing the first of the Australian Grand Designs tonight. About a guy who is rebuilding an amazing house (improved) which burnt in last years bush fires 2 weeks after it was finished. Wow
hello everyone. A 10 letter word, eh?
sounds good, lyn.
Airedales are such handsome dogs
hi Lile, yes, and a real word, too
hi Ouwachita & Lile
a real word, even... an all on its own word or compound?
they look a bit like those oldfashioned wooden toy dogs when they are well-trimmed.
wow .... what a journey for that house!
compound Lile
compound
Our compere is no Kevin McCloud but it seems OK
thanks. *puts all words found so far together to try and get the 10*
I'm not sure if anyone (me?) told you, Lickety didn't post a list, but VolleyMomDee has a list at her profile.
TY Christine
'bye, again.
hi Christine
bye Christine
hi, I'm off to drink tea and read my book - keep returning 'cos I see another word.
Ata, it is your grid, did you notice?
yes :)
you did well, it is a fun grid.
thats also why I was so hoping for atlatl!
you and me both. It is a marvellous word.
well the jiddish sh6 makes up for it, a little bit anyway.
yes, a good bit
fireflies. Very nice one!
yay spritey!
congrats Sprite
well done sprite! I'm finding it a bit tricky
Bye all, have a grand day / night. Ata, heal up fast and without anymore pain. *hugs*
it is, Lile, that is something I like about grids. :)
bye Sprite
Morning/Evening All. I wonder if there's a list somewhere?
Good morning, Babble buddies!
Scrabs! Haven't seen you for a long time
Life is busy. I worked and was on-call from last Th-Mon morning so I was stressed.
maybe i've just been getting up way too early and missed you
HI
must go hunt for list. stuck with 25
Jay, did I ever tell you that I was born at Emory Hospital?
Hi herin
Really? And you left the glorious state of Georgia, 49th out of 50th in every conceivable measure of well-being.
Anybody want tea? I am going to the kitchen to make more.
Hello back. I am going to finish this then bed
herin, do you know if there's a list somewhere?
I do not recall my life in Atlanta but my mother longs for it. I tell her that the Atlanta metropolis is far different now than in the early '60's.
Volleymomdee has a list. Or is she Volleydeemom?
It definitely is.
Oh good
Do you know that I just now saw le4 across the top row? I must be gaining consciousness.
There is no list? Yeks. I will ahve to look at Volleys
Me too Scrabs. After coffee, there it was!
Isn't it so silly to miss words arranged so obviously?
How do I find Volley on the rankings page?
Check the "Who's Online" tab.
Hit Edit, Find, and type in Volley
ty JayK
I just noticed that there's a 10 letter word in here
Whoa!
Well, I am missing that and 74 other words. And I must get ready for work. Yikes, I must bring out garbage + recycling containers too.
i only got a 9 letter
oh no that is 10
sorry
Bye. I shall return during the work day when I have time.
Hello, All :-)
Hi zooz, how are you getting on?
Not bad today thanks, FM, nice to see you, how are you keeping yourself?
Keeping warm is the order of the day and all is well :)
Yes, i agree ; been getting much colder :-(
Had the first frost last night, bird bath was frozen, didn't realise until I got some nasty looks from the sparrows.
so I boiled the kettle and melted it - I think they enjoyed the 'spa' bath after that :)
We still haven't had a frost in CT [at least in cntral CT] and it doesn't look like we will be having one for quite a while. Strange
Tapping there little claws on the frozen water, looking at you to say what the hell is this..lol
Hello, Bichon, lucky you :-)
lol exactly zooz. Lucky you bichon!
I don't know if this is luck or global warming. We usually have one by now. And, haven't had to turn on the heat yet
I always put seeds out in a seed container for the small birds, does not last long.
does anyone have the t in the bottom row?
I feed the birds everyday all year round.
HAving started I couldn't stop during the summer and now that winter is on its way they need all the help they can get.
I do too FMitch. But they come and go
Sorry, bichon, i have just started, so alas i do not have it yet.
I love putting lots of cake crumbs out for the birds, i get hundreds of birds then, they cannot get enough of it.
That bottom t is the 10. I could be called a gossip if I told you that.
put whole cakes out and you will get 'birds' flocking round you too *grin*
LOL, true , FM :-)
thanks for the t10 *looking*
esp with cream and chocolate!
ahh ha, got the ta 10, thanks, FM!
yay!
nice to see all those `T`s used in one go..lol
Opps I went off again
Hello, Herin :-)
yes, you feel like you get your moneys worth out of them with that word.
Hi herin.
Sorry I was looking at a puppy farmer :(
HAve you found the la8/45 - Haz came up with the best clue earlier.
I can re- post if if wanted?
Please do
la8/45 - a superlatively indolent lisper.
Ohh, i got it!!, thank -you :-)
Time for lunch - back in a while.
i did smile when i found the sh7/44 to do with poo
lol and TTFN zooz :)
Enjoy you meal, FM, many thanks for the clues.
Later FM
I have the perfect answer to my finishing my course
which is?
Not get arrested if i go on a puppy farm raid
Farm raid, arrested?? what you got arrested Herin?
oh sorry, you said `IF` should read it .
what course is this you went on then, Herin?
No but I have no fear in doing it as the creeps that run these places don't want to be exposed. I am doing a legal secretary course.
Oh, i see, yes there can be some very nasty people dealing in puppies, with only money there main goal, no concern for the welfare of the puppies at all.
I like how they say ''but we are reputable'' you buy a dog from them and something happens to you you can't return the dog to them. All reputable breeders do this
I was talking to a lady that breed these rare dogs in AUstralia and she had a return policy if the owner got sick or died.
Would of thought that should be the norm, i am well out of the loop on these matters, but would of thought it common-sense.
It is but these aren't nice people
makes me sad, when i see the advert every christmas, warning people that `Dogs are for life, not just for christmas`
What is the penalty like where you are, Herin, if some-one is found of neglect to an animal?, here i feel it is not much, a fine mostly. Unless it is really bad, then they might be banned for a while of keeping animals.
It is fairly crap
deat h
got that one, Hello, Carlee :-)
sorry all
don`t forget to plural too :-)
hi zooz...herin
How are you today?
i'm ok and u?...i am just waking up....still have the sleep inmy eyes
can someone tell me why im gettin the clues from yesterday games in lickety??
have you tried to refresh Gotoread?
cus likety has not updated them...
i guess that explains it lol
of course, i keep forgetting you are many hours behind here.
i have not listed yet, so have not looked to see if it up todate..lol
yes ny.. never happened b for
why do u have the clues for today zooz?
List for today is in VolleyballMomDee's profile.
have not listed yet, Carlee.
Hello, MollyL
lickety does not even play zooz..his program is completely voluntary on his part..
i have 6 more to find.
Oops, VolleyMomDee. Sorry. Morning all.
yes i know, it is very good of him to do this for us.
oh i run lickety's beta program so the list comes up...but i slide it over until i am ready...thing is the screen goes red or green depending on if in list
lol, did not even notice the mistake, Molly.
Lickety could be out or the daylight savings screwed the program
sorry i meant gator..i knew u knew zooz...no coffee..bleary eyed yet
beta program?, not expert then?
yes..his expert zooz...but is a beta
oh i see, i did have expert on my old computer, but not on my laptop.
Can`t wait for the new Babble!
Rats. If two tiles were shifted, "shithead" would be in the grid.
Sad my neighbour told me today that his boxer pup may have to be put to sleep soon :(
i like having lickety's program tho...
there is one, sh7/36, which is very close to that Molly..lol
why is this, Herin?
Yeah, I got that one Zooz. That's what made me realize the "possible" word.
Dog has a tumor in his nose and when he stops the medication it makes it really hard for him to breath. If they keep him on the medication it is bad for him so I think they are trying to have an on off system
gone looking for other sh**ty word...i never see phantoms so the tile flipping concept is lost on me
poor little fella, what a thing to have , so young.
sh7/36 past tense of having a poo
it is sad...i had a 3 year old cat get cancer... :( from her immunizations...blunt force trauma to the bone
He is about 10
we had her amputated since she was so young
her leg*
one of my, guniea pigs died recently...just layed on the floor, and would not move...took her to the vets & he said there was nothing he could do for her, something about an inbalance of bacteria in the gut.
sad to hear, Carlee :-(
FYI - when licketys list throws up an extra word (as it did yesterday) until he manually adjusts for that and reruns the program the list will not automatically generate.
she was a fun cat...very unique... she lasted another 3 years..the cancer spread to her lungs...
hi fm
such beautiful sunshine, here, yet rather cold.
O poor kitty

I don't know quite how to proceed. usually i just dont say anything when i see the name....
I am fine zooz, if frustrated by his continuing nonsense. he is doing all he can to not give me what he was instructed to, and its driving me nuts
comes back out of lurk mode - I have noticed that too Trif.
I just don't chat at that time anymore.
I about fell off my chair fmitch. he has a pair, I will give him that. and the bio!!!!
hi, back again. ta 10, a clue perhaps?
LOL yes!

any chance of a nudge for the bottom-most t?
that is the ta10 Trif
ummm. i have the 10. but not the bottom t
I'm very glad to see that babbler is back.
No it's not the ta 10.
ta8.40 the most ragged
Hello everyone
I am glad to see YOU back nancy!!! you seemed to be gone so long when you were away on your trip!!!
thanks lynxxx
Thanks lynx.
hello, NB & Lynxxx
It's just horrible to come into the chat log and see things like that. You accuse him of all these bogus, incredible things - take a look at yourselves. I think it's disgusting how you continue to treat and talk about him.
nancy, you only have heard one side of the story. and all i said was he was back in the chog, and it took a lot of guts for him to come back.
and I don't want to have any bad blood between you and I! You are one of my absolute favorite babblers, and I would like to keep things friendly
hi, everyone
hello, angel :-)
NB Trifs meant her ex at 726m
I don't want bad blood between anyone, but he is one of the nicest people I've ever met. He's completely saved my life.
hi angel...
I've already had my adventure for today. had a minor fall in the bathroom, but I'm not hurt
oh no angel!!!
thats fine nancy, but understand that he also alienated a lot of people here. I am glad for your relationship with him, but we are all responsible for our choices. Even heroes.
r u ok angel?
but I am glad you have had a good experience with him. Everyone has many facets, of course
yeah, carlee, I'm fine
tis a problem with chat..one can never hear the tone of one's voice.... i know i have alienated my fair share here....
glad to hear angel...i have no adventures yet..i am in bed still
oh, I am sure there are plenty of folks who hate to see my icon too. with so many babblers, not everyone is going to be best friends
back to lurk mode
ANgel don't do that it is bad
my cats freaked out. they wanted to know I was okay
carlee, what time is it where you are?
hey babblers
did you land on one of the cats, angel?
8 :41
Hello, Gort :-)
hi Gort
warm salutations and what not
my dad tripped and landed on one of his dogs, and it was so awful!
hmmm. so we are in the same time zone, carlee....interesting
can anyone please give me a clue for the al6?
yes...i thought u knew that
no, I didn't carlee. but I stink at stuff like that, so it's not the biggest shocker
al6 girls name, not very common
or the L that doesn't sound like it's the start of something fatal?
al 6 is a woman's name as in the tennis player Gibson
am in edt right now...est in a couple weeks
oh, that reminds me! our favorite volcano was an answer on jeopardy last night....eye roll
O ffs the kittie is snoring
too funny, trif!!!
Aww Angel Cats don't usually care at your suffering they usually want to be fed
good morning une my dear one!!!
carlee, I finished my book!
hmmm....rare girls name, eh? well it's not alethia, aletta or alitta
i have been trying Scrabble, i am rubbish i have concluded..lol
it is the first one you said Gort.
Careful, gort...
not rubbish, zooz, just learning!
well almost..lol
yes...i knew that angel...u sent me the link :)..i just cant buy stuff with credit cards right now and to buy it i would have to online
al6 is also a flower
angel, did you write a book???
this is true, trif..but i am a very slow learner..lol
but you WILL learn! please don't give up!
(al6 also known as Rose of Sharon)
`saving our sanity` i have it here, Trif..a very good read.
I have been informed that there is two Ta's 8 I ahve one Ta 40 what is the other please.
Hello Une
Hi Une
hey, lynxxx :-)
have that uneasy feeling that a cigar is being dangled just out of my reach...or is that carrots? close, but no carrots...no, must be a cigar
and herin :-)
Lynxx you ready for this 29 degree day tomorrow?
ahhh got it, thanks all
herin, we have those ahead too - but Fahrenheit, unfortunately!
brrr
Not at all
trade ya?
am in process of divorce /separtion but accounts are currently still joint..if i buy anything " other then necessities" things get really ugly right now..am picking my battles for when it is important to do so
I believe the saying what follows 5 days of sunshine with two days of rain - the weekend applies
Help with the TA 8 please
and it is my birthday Sunday I wanted nice weather
Happy Three Days Before Your BIrthday!!!
carlee, I have been so disappointed this week at how the nonsense doesnt stop, just because the hammer went down. he was told he had 7 days to transfer some money over to me, that my lawyer and I both believed was in a cash account, which I DESPERATELY need, and now, all of a sudden, he has revealed that it is all in stocks, and i will have to pay 35% taxes on the money if I want it in cash, and oops, didn't he mention that?
ta8 = most ragged
aw, jeez, trif :-(
there still time for the weather to change..its only thurs...here where i am the saying goes..if you dont like the weather....wait 15 mins... it'll change
same here, carlee LOL
I guess I was stupid to think the crap would end....
you mentioned that trifs... i am sorry this is happening to you... fortunately my ex is not spiteful...
there are other issues but he is not spiteful..nor greedy
you are a lucky woman carlee. I know that sounds weird to say, but you are.
we all have our issues trifs...
btw, I saw your reply to my FB post - you crack me up!!!
well..i have a 14 year old daughter toooo....sooooo and she the least of my worries....
and then at other times they surprise you with how gentle and kind they can be....
she normally is that way.....she's gettign some results with her grades..she is top of her class math and science...and she is working to stay on top...
after adjusting to hs...and allthe crap that happened at the beginning of year at the school..i am thrilled...
that is excellent! secondo has been a lot more driven in her studies this year, I must say. A lot of her friends are in honors level classes, and she wants to be up with them, so she is working very hard. it's the good kind of peer pressure
what great girls you both have raised
I have Ta 8 the most ragged but I need the other one
yeap..it is....my daughter's best friend is like ur secondo... she never really worked in grades chool..but now in hs..they have become very tight and it is reflecting in her marks...her mum is over the moon
Trifs how is the crayons going?
the crayons are ridiculously fun. seriously, it is almost embarrassing how obsessed with it we have become
my son is even starting to buckle down now that she is there ( in his victory lap)....
coming up with names for the new crayons is so fun
excellent carlee!
huh???? crayons???
oh...that sounds like fun trifs
Crayola have a crayon making machine
lol carlee - tertiate has wanted a crayola crayon maker for EVER, and they are finally back on the market, so we grabbed one. And it was half price too! And making crayons is somehow crazy fun. who knew?
I am wondering if you could melt chocolate for chocolate crayons that you could eat
There is a second Ta yes?
ok...i need a link for that....this i gotta see
http://www.crayola.com/products/splash /crayon-maker/
Ok i give in what the heck is the 8s please I ahve looked and nothign
if there is, i don't have it, sorry herin
I think I am all wrong
okay, i have to get ready for work. have a great student in the morning, and a challenging one in the afternoon. I just haven't found the magic motivator to get him to want to work....sooooo frustrating!
Hugs Trifs
no i think you're probably right herin. i've got only 3 of the 4 8s
looks fun...and have fun
Cookies?
hugs back, and happy early birthday!!!
promise him a go on the Crayon Maker
hmm. maybe. he loves lego star wars, think I will get him the visual dictionary and see how that goes
O you could do a whole lesson on Star Wars stuff if he behaves
lol lynxxx! I think not! It involves melted wax. Not a safe choice for this particular boy, unfortunately
tried that yesterday. did some star wars spelling tasks - luke, maul, etc.
it was quite fun, actually.
okay. im' gone
How old is said kidlet?
11
TRIFS i just found a star wars Lesson plan
Just sent you a FB link
take care, trif
ok...well time to get tookus in gear...am going to bottle 90 bottles of wine today
and make corndogs for supper....yay..corndogs :)
Take care
<actual poof>
Could anybody help me with the sh6/21 following the past tense of the rude word?
Sorrry I can't help just an those myself
Even Morewords is letting me down!!
ound it
Means:
a Jewish village or small-town community in eastern Europe.
Utterly no help to me, Herin.... Could you clue it, please?
That is a clue Google that for the answer. IT is too hard to clue
Good plan! Off I go to google. Thanks Herin :-)
I would clue it if I could but I can't unless you want it spelt out letter by letter
sh+fr word for head minus last letter plus cons...very weird
I just got it. LOL - I now understand how its un-clueable!!
Thank you, Krysten. Google put me out of my misery! Fireworks!!!!
sh plus infamous Vietnamese offensive, finish off with a consonant. Or sh plus start of the advertising tea folk who've recently returned.
It is a babblet
Good morning/afternoon/evening all.
Hi Haz and thanks
Hi and bye, Haz. I must return to duty (I'm babbling at work)
Do you know what the 8's are please?
Hello, herin. That word used to appear pretty regularly, it's been a while.
Just the stats?
I am missing an 8 it is annoying me
Later Soodle
at8/45, la8/45, le8/40 ta8/40
It is the LE I am missing
Extend an le4.
mmm
Clue please
The one that begins and ends with the same letter. Make it into a word that describes allegiances.
le8 - use men's neckwear to end the allegiance.
Thansk that I wouldn't have seen on my own
You're welcome.
I think it is because it is not something I would have thought off
No, it doesn't leap to the eyes.
does the at8 end with the superlative?
Specially at 1245am iether
No, it's a past tense for at6/18 - to bear witness
ah - thanks! barking up the wrong tree!
No problem, Pastor.
That is it for me I wil find the 12 in the am
Sleep well, herin.
how many words today folks?
128.
thanks
You're welcome, Krysten. One ten letter word, four eight letters, five sevens.
thanks, Haz. Got most...missing the 10 :(
i need le/8 and 8's will be done.
ta - I'd be a gossip if I told you what it was.
never mind
it's la/8 i need
lol...should've seen that one!
la8 - a superlatively indolent lisper.
la8 is an extension of la4/5
thanks!
love the clue haz
You're welcome, vdd.
Thanks, grant, I'm glad it worked.
one more qu word. i have the adventure plus past tense, and the animal
Take a letter from the end of the bird.
duh!
i feel like an idiot now.
A nice easy clue to give! Don't worry, vdd, we all feel like idiots at some stage during most grids.
babble - it keeps us humble.
Absolutely.
anyone got a reclue for the le8? I'm still stumped =/
le8 - ends in gents' neckwear and comes from the le4/4 meaning loyal.
Or le plus the end of the word indicating the money people get for their writings being used roy******.
ahhh, got it... that's a weird one... I was thinking it ended in -ated or -est or something more usual
Glad you got it, mside.
Good morning, all!
Good morning, Judi - you sound very chipper!
Morning folks
Pfffth. So not.
Good morning, Mr Bob.
Formal protest: "Squee" is so a word.
Duly noted in the enable complaints folder.
hello all
Hiya, Peri & Bob.
Hello, peri.
feel your pain, Judi. It never takes "squicky" either.
Mr Bob, I have to confess that I always think your icon is a little ghost, but I know it's not.
AND... there's no Lickety today. *sulking*
agreed judi. i use that word often.
Come, come, Judi. This is retro babbling for those made of sterner stuff.
Judi, the list is in VolleyMomDee's profile.
Okay. Thank you, Molly. :-)
oh, there isn't? in that case...later. because it's 3pm and I should probably er, get up anyway.
Good Day, Babblers :)
We of the old school can reach into the recesses of our babble brains to conquer this.
Haz, I always think that is a ghost as well. : )
Clue for the other i word? I have the il4.
Oh good, Molly, I'm not the only one.
il5 - descriptive of the il4.
Ty. Total Babblet.
Hello, Nono!
Does that improve your mood, Judi or make you even more sulky?
49 left and right column gray :)
My mood is improving. (The extra coffee doesn't hurt either).
I see FM's suggestion that we email Lickety with the extra word from the grid did not get us a list today
haha good work peri
Judy i heard that ,VolleyMomDee has a list in her profile.
Gosh, peri, there's no holding you back today.
i'm sure gremlinn does too
Hello, zooz.
After her bath, our dog enjoyed being towel dried.
:-)
Thanks, Zooz. I got it.
gremmlin does not have a list
She looks very cute, Mr Bob!
Hello, Haz, & all :-)
what. my world is rocked!
hi zooz
I just checked Judy :(
volleymomdee has a list in her profile
Doc was supposed to call at 10:00. Is not 10:19. Oy.
i am new...how do i get to volley's profile
He's probably not been able to read his handwriting with the number, Judi.
Love your icon, Judi :-)
Thanks, zooz.
here is a link to dee's profile: http://www.playbabble.com/pro file_mini.php?id=29689
Sparty it might be easier to go to Babblers Annonymous, there is a link for that down below the grid
Sparty, if you click on Rankings above, it will take you to Rankings. Do control F and type in her name, it will bring up her profile.
txs
you can find the profiles on the rankings page
Or at least, it will highlight her name, click on it and it will bring up her profile.
Thanks , haz, i never knew that, logged in my memory banks.
got it...thanks all
any time Sparty, we are glad to help
You're welcome - it's handy for when you want to see someone's profile and they're not online. Or if you want to obsessively check everyone's ranking.
What does the tenner start with?
ta
ta, judi
ta, Judi - compound word.

Mornin babblers! Just checkin in from the Drs office (just a checkup, no ilnesses or injuries!)
Hello EvaN!
Hello, Eva :-)
(Waiting patiently for an explanation)
How are we this morning?
hi Eva
Never mind us, why are you at the doctor's office? Seriously just a routine check or has your blood pressure soared to unheard of levels?
Explanation? Just an overdue checkup... using all my leave for the wedding, so had to combine errands...
That's okay, then. You had me worried.
good morning all..
Good moring, ruru.
morning ruru
morning, even.
Hello, Ruru
this is a nice time for your eva.. there isn't much more you can do so you can just enjoy it now?
*you*
I'm actually relatively calm! Stayed
I'm actually relatively calm! Stayed
Called back. Gotta run!
Your command of the English language has suffered but at least you're calm...

Hello, Mary - it's been in the grid before but a hard one to clue.
{{crossy}}
(Sulking because ruby gets the praise while I work my fingers to the bone concocting clues for everyone.....)
as pennance ruby,if you are not a member of my folding at home team,you must read my profile while in the pb
I just saw a film about monks in Morocco who were killed by terrorists. Lovely movie and my neighbor, who is trying to convert me, took me
OK, enough, I've been seeing all this stuff about folding and thought "OK, I don't belong to this club! :("
so how do I join?
!! you are a babbler ruby that means you do belong!!
Hi ruby, cross, Haz, Mary. Has anyone posted a list today please?
Just pay crossy the membership fees and you're in.
even in the sh^, they know from penance!
uh uh..read the profile.it is all in there

Control plus F.
I believe so, ruby...
;)
Thanks again, Haz. You're a lifesaver!
No problem - we Brits need to stick together.
Okay, have to head out to buy some ink cartridges. Be good and enjoy the grid! *gone*
OK, crossy, I'm on. My 20-year anniversary is on 6 Nov, so I am more than a willing participant!!!!
yaa for ruby!!!!!
Bye, Haz
and, with the help of his doctor, I think we've gotten my husband's pain under control!
i will stop pestering when we get 100 babblers in there at which point it should be self sustaining.jmc is pitching it for me as well:)
yaa for rubys hubby
That's great news, ruby. And congrats on your 20 years.
Crossy, I'm working on my 2nd protein...
bye, Haz. thanks for the clues
hi, again...((crossy))
Hi, Angelsong
yaa jellen!!,btw i fould the reason for the score disparity jellen.it does not update the lists in real time

howdy angel
my 5th aniversary is this december ruby
5th of my first cancer that is
what date, crossy, I'll light a candle

*blushing again*

hey!
... crossy ... hit the local high school ... they've probably got a computer room with about 20 to 30 machines that probably get shut down every afternoon ...
er..well what i meant was...well it was like this jellen....
lolol!
jellen: I have given my husband a collection of amonites, the latest with ata's help, and a book to learn about them, to keep him busy
all very low power compaqs and dells doseffing,just one gaming rig can outfold ten of those school lappys
dinner now, back after {{everybody}}
Bye, ruby
and their firewalls forbid streaming of that nature,plus trying to get our schoolboard to see the light on something like this would be tough
if i can get 1oo babblers onboard i will have more folding power than our entire school district
lol
Okay, it's time for me to get moving...missed a meeting this morning due to sheer laziness....:-(
I triied to get into the folding site, but don't know if I was successful. Will try again after dinner
i will waqlk you through it when you get back ruby
walk
did the lickey site not get updated last night?
Looks as though lickety took a day off..... :(
that is sad there are some puzzles I can't complete with out help
any other sources I could use?
you can go to rankings and look up volleymom, she has a list in her profile

right you are, scribe! and now a copy of the list is in my profile.
Oops...was gone for a moment...Jacula has it too. It is a bit nippy this morning
I preempted my pb entry and read it crossy...interesting...may have to look into it later
currently a balmy 30°F, but the sun is out!
that is all i ask jilly ty
6c here atm and a cold rain
we have a snow advisory issued for friday:/
It's really a beautiful fall day here; personally just like I enjoy it. Crisp morning and sunny day. Am debating, however, how much longer I will drag in all my flower pots at night....lol
yup, read your profile crossy. a very worthy cause. I however, am afraid of dropping my firewalls at the nonce...had a few too many bugs latched on to the last computer.
at
I know dawg...my thoughts too
ahh, garden is done, last of the roses have been cut, and only have to harvest the thyme.
if you are any way uneasy about it,then i understand ibd,but i have researched this carefully and would not offer it up here if it were not 100% safe for all babblers
you will not get flooded,with junk mail,or spam,this link up is only to stanford university computers
but i understand
hi all
too truse crossy..i have had nothing..and dawg...if u are busy..you can turn if off
howdy carlee:)
( as i havemine turned off atm
check out my new profile carlee;)
hey has JC been around?
again a noble cause...just not sure how secure any computer can be. especially university computers...i used to work for a good sized r&d university and even they got hacked.
hi carlee!
hey dawg
cool crossy
well i would rather get hacked doing this than ordering a book form amazon..chances are about the same lol
to true crossy
i run avg and ad-aware,if they can hack me with all that,then they are welcome to it
anyway....no one seen jc?...i watched his clip finally...bloody hillarious i wanted to tell him so
i make annual donations to the cancer society. so i don't feel too bad about not doing this.
ok,well thank you for your time anyways lbd
I've been doing a similar thing at Berkeley for more than five years. If I'm getting spam or other nuisance material it is not obvious to me. I'm looking for aliens in space (SETI), looking for a cure for malaria, and doing something similar with the World Community Grid. I'm one who never turns the computer off so there are no wasted cycles on my machine.
lol i know SETI also sally and have used it on occasion
nice sallyd
join our club if you wish sally,all the info is in my profile
i must try to curb my enthusiasm and not hog the chog for much longer on this;)
so..that 100 one i was telling you about crossy...ran all night...am only at 71...that 36 hours and still goiing...i think the 100's are bigger then the 250...the 250s we have had here were done in less the 24 hours

congrats amelu!
JC here?
Back again. I just saw a very cute baby.
hey scrabs
So what is your decision for dinner?
Hello...how's the grid?
corn dogs
Hi J! First half was not bad, 2nd half is challenging.
its...meh
i found an amazing recipe and i managed to tweak it beyond...so....the kids requested.corn dogs
thanks LeslieAnn! ... @ jelllen, would have been easier w/list... @ Scrabs, you've seen my grandbabies?
I am at the Indian Reservation Clinic and seeing kids.They're so cute.
As a Brit can I ask what corn dogs are!!
Your grand kid is cute, Amelu? Name?
u take cornmeal, flour, buttermilk etc...coat a hot dog..and fry it
Hi Deeha. *laughing at your question*
its a fair staple here....but i found a wicked good recipe....
can I say blaaah!!! That is as a non-meat eater you understand not as a critic of American cuisine
This one is Max...
Cute, Amelu
Me too, Deeha
Altho I have to say I do find the American cuisine odd - we dont mix as much sweet and sour as you do. The oddest thing I had was crab in orange jelly
Deeha, I guess no strawberry/rhubarb pie for you?
Yuck, Deeha. How did you like it?
Being Britsh I am too polite to refuse- I ate it quickly and quietly!!
Mmmm....strawberry/rhubarb pie!!
crab should be steamed with old bay and seaweed, and nothing else! Or else made into crabcakes, again with old bay (i'm from the chesapeake region -- does it show?)
its an easy thing...i hate "hot dogs" but i love corn dogs...
hey, yall :D
hi, deeha, jellen, amelu, carlee, scrabbs, et al
Hi, dc!
someone said corn dogs!...mmmm
No man should make eye contact with another man while eating a corn dog....it's a law!
Hi Seain + Crossy!
hi, crossy
Hi folks
scwabby!
greetigs, jmitch
Haha, jmitch
Crossy! I started a second computer...

Hi, jmitch
LOL jmitch
Programme about spiders coming on - think I will go and cook some supper!! bbl
Bye, Deeha
Crossy, I read it the other day, tried to download but had no success. I will try again when I go home after work.
be well, deeha
i laid it all out better, i updated everything in my profile this morn
it even give a chuckle now:)
then i could put "recommended by Dr. Scwabby!:)
Yay! The 13 yr old girl has no showed for her yearly visit. Adolescent girls are way too much.
heheeh....
*I have a bad attitude, I know*
i just reduce my maturity level to their level scrabs..and have fun :p
my 16 year old boy is a monsyabic brick wall full of teenage angst and only opens up if money becomes involved lol
I was a charming 13-year-old, as I recall...:-)
i was the devil inacrnate...
Yep, my nephews are like that (17, 20, 22). Walking brainstems + gonads.
whats he like if u take him for a long car ride crossy..i always found as soon as i did that verbal diarhea set in
I am not surprised, Jellen.
especially after he played hockey and was full of adrenaline
I hated adolescence.
nope,he just asks if he can have the computer back once we are done discovering canada
Adolescence is a terrible time!
Going to go do something refreshing, like beat my head against the wall - two words left, I'm positive they don't exist!
anyways i must be off to work..in the rain:((( but tc all and happy babbling..poof!
bbs
I think when I see adolescents in the office I have flashbacks of my adolescence, thinking about junir high school, senior high school, college....ugh!
Bye hgk + Crossy

Hi, jmc...

hi jell
oh finally!!!!! fireworks
whooo hooo varumba
phew! I will appreicate lickety's list twice more tomorrow it hink!
ty :)
I think*
hi jmc
jells
var
hi car
hi jmc
i have to order supplies should i order more purple crayons for you?
hi sadie
wow... sh** is accepted in the grid?
umm...anyone know what to do when ur heart completely shatters unexpectedly..out of the blue
and sh7 too? lol
absolutely cosd and more!
crazy
hmm I would take a day to be completely miserable and then take a day to be completely pissed off
Get hugs from friends, quick!
and then move on
or what jell says
my daughter just announced she is goign to live with her father
What's up carlee?
{{{{carl}}}}
oh no im sorry
Hi all, afternoon babble break for me!
Oh, I'm so sorry...
how old is she?
she feels it is only fair that since my son isnt..she is
14
hello jill
Hi, Jilly
I am sure that is not a reflection on you except that you raised a loving and compassionate daughter
Oh carlee...just read thru chat...I am SO sorry (hugs)
hi jilly
Hi Cos and Jell
i cant breath right now
hard nevertheless
Deep breaths are good right now, carlee...
carlee - i have a 14 year old that did the same thing
girl as well
they come back
mine did
a cup of tea?
a cup of tea?
hic
and go drink a nice bottle of wine - that helps - just relax she is testing her boundries and how much you really care
she has never been close to her dad....she and i have been inseparable and this just blindsided me
any1 want a clue before i go?
ladybug makes good sense
i need the clue for last sh6
so do i say no u cant...do i get emotional....or do i let her go?
my 14 year old was close to her dad - very close and decided she wanted more freedom - so she went - I helped her pack and told her that I would always be here for her
oh carlee just read it.....
drove her over there and left her -
Just talk first, find out her reasoning
hardest thing I ever had to do - cried the whole way home -
so sory for you
it may be a test -- try, I won't stop you because you are old enough to decide, but I am hurt by this and don't think it is in your best interest
no, you need to be the parent here, and tell her how much you dont'want her to go leave... but that you understand she might need her father right now...
You have obviously raised a very caring daughter. Can you sit down with her and quietly tell her how you feel about this? Also assure her that if she does go she can always come back.
of course that assumes that her dad is not a complete evil jerk
about 6 months later - grass wasn't so green on dad's side of the fence - she came home - and I told her if she came back she couldn't leave - this wasn't musical houses
she's been here over a year
d that of course you will always be there
things are good
I actually would first find out why...and let her know how much you love and need her there with you....how far does your ex live?
she's atthat difficult age where she is trying to fign herself, and indeed test her boundaries
my daughter adn I talked about it ad she said she wanted to go because her dad had just moved into a new place and was getting a divorce and he needed her
she said " It is clear u and dad are now separated...and i think it is only fair that i live with dad since ( her brother...who is 18 ) isnt "
" are you ok with this?"
but that wasn't the real reason and I'm not sure I'll ever know for sure - but we did talk and just let her know that you love her and will always be there for her
last sh 6/21?
i can almost guarentee she won't stay there
sorry got to go -- hang in there car
last sh6 = difficult!!! sh6 = sh + cons+ vowel + same cons + other cons
has she talked to her dad about this - i know my ex tried to get both the girls because it would mean little/no child support for me -
sry, dont'know how to clue it better!!!!
thanks jmc
how far from her would you be?
same city
town
i would let her try it
that is what i am thinkng is behind all this...the $
we do not have a separation agreement in place yet
yay i monkeyed it :) ty
we in process there of...
it will hurt - but she can at least experience - jsut let her know that rules are rules and she will be expected to follow rules no matter where she lives
but $$$ is usually the factor - I've found
if you want to email me I can give you pointers on what I did
thank lady..i will keep all this in mind
its ok..but thank you
car, you need to tell her how it makes you feel, but also acknowledge she has got that rigth...
wd cos!!!
right now i am in shock... and i gotta pull myself together later...and be the mature cool composed adult...i wil tell her i am hurt...but i will tell her if this is how she feels then...she needs to do this
rather than telling her : you need to do it", i would say"I haven't got the right to say no.... just to let her know that it is HER choice, and that you are not stopping her from choosing
but indeed, take a bit of tiem before you ahve that conversation
ok
((((((car))))))))))))) it must be very difficult
but you'll get through this
ok..thanks... now to stop crying..to stop shaking and to breath
lol.... why??? let it all out..... it must come out.....
(((carlee)))
car, she won't have to change schools, will she?
no..she will still go to her school
if not, one thing to keep in mind is to let her know that your homes will not have revolving doors... she can't get mad at her father and run to your house to live, then get mad at you and run back to her father's...
give her a minimum timeline... like she must go through the entire school year or something...
she's not if that personlity amelu...she is a thinker.she makes descisions... and once made..is steadfast..she does not 2nd guess...she moves forward...and rarely reverses direction
On the other hand, I have a friend who has her kids Friday to Friday...Then their dad has them...
I totally agree with amelu....there have to be boundaries...can you work with your ex to establish some guidlines?
this child is furthest u can imagine from wishywashy
I feel very badly about something.
Oh, I understand, and that's a good thing...
Even so, she's 14. That is not an adult
what that bichon
Just saying...
I was going to go to CA to visit my grandkids for two weeks next month. My d.i.l. had made plans to go to a symposium for a day and I was going to watch the kids.
It turns out my husband is going to be on a nationaly televised game show during that time and I am canceling my trip. I feel badly about leaving my d.i.l. in the lurch.
Should she be understanding?
oh my bichon
Absolutely!
I think she should too. And she hasn't said anything, yet.
well..bichon..my mother in law has done snyquat for my kids... so if u've done anything for the kids....no
what game show? lol lets make a deal? :)
If you were planning on watching them for a week while she went out of town on business, maybe not so much...
I think so, bichon...maybe you can make arrangements to pay for a sitter that day...
I would be in the audience and they will show me
Millionaire
oh nice
what show bichon
best of luck!
cool
Awesome! No, that's a pleasure you shouldn't guilt youself for!
oh man..i am going to go have a bath..i cant stop shaking
thanks for the advice all
He was on Jeopardy years ago and not only won a small amount of money, but a trip for two to Hawaii.
ur dil should understand.. its a chance to win a million dollars
Anytime you want to chat/vent carlee, I'm usually on FB...
i know jells... thanks..
bye all
No one wins a million dollars. They make it too difficult for that. But he could win a chunk of change which we will spend on a trip for our 40th anniversary
or here... there are always those who care in babble land...
I'm sorry carlee for interruptiong your more important problem
yes.. you know what i mean :)
be sure to let us know when the show airs bichon so we can all watch!!!
I will announce it. It will be taped next month
I was in Vegas and went to a taping of Let's make a deal......was fun but NEVER again
why never again? what did you dress up as?
Hi, Lady B
My husband is good at informational types of things. He's a reference librarian
le 8?
was there on business, so it was something to do on Sunday afternoon, kind of last minute so we didn't dress up
le 4/4 + men's neckwear
what I hated as the fact that we got to the hotel at noon and did get out of there until 5:30!!!
oh wow.. thats quite long
or estate properties with a diff 1st letter...
the whole security thing took sooooooooo long - I mean really - Greg Brady - you would think that Obama was the host
then you went in front of the producers for personal interviews - obvioulsy they want a mix of people
ty Jellen and amelu
al 6/21, please?
For Millionair they had a test and those who passed were interviewed, then they taped three people who went into the contestant pool
First name of tennis player Gibson
then because Brady made soooooooooooo many mistakes during the taping, they had to go back and redo different segments of the show
Thanks, bichon
like I said, NEVER again....
Okay, have exhausted monkeys...hope I don't need tartar sauce...clue for the at5?
sorry, Wayne Brady, not Greg Brady
I knew that wasn't right, but couldn't think of his name, lol...

She's very talented...
And high energy!
yes she is
So, thanks for encouraging me to go!
yw.
peri...are you still needing the sh5/12?
Hey everybody! Is there a Lickety list today? I can't get it to show today's grid. Is there a backup list? Thanks!
Hi, frog...no lickety, but there's a list in Babbler's Anonymous...
Thank, Jellen. I just remembered about BabAnon and found that list. Does someone solve the grid and then post the clues there, or do they have a solver. Just curious.
Jacula posted it...
Well, thanks, Jac! (If you're here.)
hi all again
hi jells
and jilly
Hi, carlee...I'm only half here...

snap
:D
Hi all again. In answer to frogtaco's question - I do not have a solver, I just post my stats when I've completed the grid. Lickety's list is done using a solver, but he doesn't play Babble and does this for us out of the goodness of his heart.
heya Jac
Hi Jacq.
lil*monkey read chog at 3.14 you see why Carle was so upset
OK thanks yvo
you welcome
shittiest
LOL
haha
We went to see the Dr. Who Live show on Monday night, an early birthday treat for Beloved's daughter. It was good fun. I've also had a good evening out with my Mum this evening at our local drama group's latest production, the farce, 'Tons of Money'. Very funny!
wow thats awful im so sorry forgot to move the curser
Yvo - good try but not quite!:-)
well it's not in the grid so no harm done
what's up, Jac... have you been bowling lately???
Hi Monkey. I did challenge you to a game or two on FB recently. I don't seem to get notifcations through for it any more, though.
clue for bottom left A words?
OK jack, i will check on that
at6 & past tense at8 - bear witness.
No, not Yogi or Pooh witnessing something! LOL
thanks jac, got em both
y/w Monkey.
I'll be bowling for real on holiday next week, Monkey. I wish I could have a mouse pointer for that 'cos though I'm brilliant on PC or WII bowling, I'm rubbish at it in real life.:-(
ok i will say good night.
'Night TO. Sleep well.
LOL jac
ty for the acknowledgement, jacs. not everyone does.
There's a police helicopter hovering overhead - hell of a racket at 1.06am. Hope it doesn't wake Beloved up! He has to be in work for 6am.
te 6/18? any really. :)
gee, how did i find all five 7's but only one 8 and not the 10 either?
Hi LA. Nice to see you.
Hi.
well jacs, the one i saw at lunch today was looking for the suspect who killed my jeweler. And I was on the way up there when I changed my mind.
hi jac. hursh - 10 starts with ta and is compound. you'll be able to find it
te6 = exam + vowel for 5, then latin pl for the 6
Hi Hursh & Herin.
hi herin, hurshy, LA
thanks for clue hursh
How goes it
that's one of them, anyway, leslie, :) i haven't got any others
LA - 1st te6/18 - add a consonant to the end of the te5/10 before it.
compound ta, ok, looking
and thanks for the 10 LA
I have 12 left I really should be doing an assignment
2nd te6/18 is the Latin plural of the te5/10 before it.
found it!
3rd te6/18 = one who takes an examination.
i passed there yestedray and thought about gong in alsokk then wondered why he was staying in that changing neighborhood. 24 hours later he was shot dead.
Welll done, Hursh. Now doing to being a gossip about it!
Sausage fingers! Should have typed ' now don't do being... etc.'
oh TO, that's terrible, you must feel so strange!
a patron for 31 years. i willl never walk in that neighborhood again.
TO - that's awful!
wow.. sorry to hear that owl. when i was working in East Orange it happened, and the jeweler was the father of one of my students. it was horrible
TO I am a little confused but that is terrible.
what neighborhood ws this in?
i keep picturing it - i mean when you know someone you can see it happen in your mind. sometimes i have htese strange ...premonitions.
I used to work in a jewellers back when I was a student. The shop was raided at a time when I wasn't there, just after closing time and the manager left tied up. Thank God that was all it amounted to.
doren, lawncrest, right up the street from work. i walk there.
sh 6/21?
Herin - I mentioned that there's a police helicopter hovering over my neighbourhood at present and TO said the last one she saw was the one looking for whoever shot her jeweller.
it's yiddish...
the sh6/21, not the jeweller's shop...
Wow
female name, also what aussies refer to prostitutes
yiddish village hursh
Found the article :(
I must have been Babbling for too long because that Yiddish sh6/21 was one of the first words I found.
Helicopter seems to have moved off now.
really? sh6 is a word for prostitute in Australia? LOL i'm loving that
the minute someone asked for a clue for it i typed it in before the clue was even given. i can relate, jacs.
TO it is terrible
monkey how are you?
well there are two sh 6/21s, and i don't know yiddish ;)
great thanks! and you?
hi everyone! got sidetracked and forgot to say howdy!
Actually, I assumed it was a police helicopter. In all likelihood it was an Air Ambulance. I live close to a motorway and the medics often have to hover and wait until they can land at an accident scene.
i am off tomorrow and watching the bball game
lbd!
Jac that is eww
HI LB
hi dawg
hi lil, hi TO!!
hey there, Herin!
I got an invite to see my friends new baby tonight :D
lbd, love the icon pic LOL
i decided to take a break from my taking a break from the computer
Hi dawg.
did you go, herin?
hi dog, monkey, et al.. walked away
Tonight
hi Jac. thanks, lil. guess it covers two topics, breast cancer and the cancer of politics
hi dorens!
dorens kids are getting so big
i like to ignore all political crap
Hi Dorens.
i'm dreading all the political TV commercials for the next pres election
hi dorens!
monkey i logged 17 calls in 24 hours from pol polls
they sure are.. my son turned 36 yesterday
thank god i don't have a house phone
if they don't get you to answer they call until you do
politics is big business
well i meant the grands ;)
i don't participate in political crap
(i knew that :-))
:p
hi babblers - lots of familiar "faces" here tonight
i used to be president of the league of women voters... am so bad now, but at least i do vote
hi j
Does anyone now where I can watch the first new season episode of CSI?
i don't either, lil. makes me crazy with all the door to door bull, and the adverts, and then the tv commercials! GAH!!
ok got the yiddish sh 6/21, what is the other?
on TV?
australian gal
have you tried, HULU, herin?
have you tried hulu?
snap, LA
it's such a shame that civil service has instead become political crap.
i am a madman addict, but my dvr ran out in the middle of the season finale. hulu doesn't run full episodes, anyone know of another solution?
ohh thanks dorens
Not sure if i can get it
Denied
crap is the word too, unfortunately
Last night they said that CSI was on at 930 then changed it to 830 with in about 6 hours of the show and I missed it
try whatever network it's shown on, dorens.
We have Fixplay but it isn't up :(
can anyone help with the Q - I have a 5, 5, 7
amc... do they do reruns?
just take the last letter off the bird, jbv
qu4.7 JBV
JBV there is a qu 4 , it 's the first 4 letters of the 5
yikes, thanks, Leslie - I should have known that!
and thanks lbd, and lil*
yw JBV
i think amc does. did you hear my answer before?
Heyas again ..
you might have to wait a week for it to be available, Herin. I know hulu usually shows it a week after a show has been aired
no, what was it?
TOR!
Hi Torgie!
GA!
LISH!
OUS!
lawncrest, where I work, i walk there. no more though.
oh. lawncrest? that wasnt a bad area back in the early 70's was it?
Have you looked at AMazon?
sh 5/12?
not at all. just in last 5 years
I can't get Hulu im not in the states?
Dorens Amazon have it for $@
$2 even
thanks herin! might be worth $2 for that- and i never would have thought to look there
AMazon do streaming but I am not in the states
no on demand for your cable?
hm. hadn't thought of that owl. i never have used it, thinking it an unnecessary expense... will have to look into it
tv on demand is free
You now when you want to watch something it isn't there but when you have seen it there is a dozen reruns
why can't you just go to the CBS website and watch the episode
just have to wait a week or so for it to be posted
that's for sure herin
oh ok. even AMC channel, owl?
so wait
good idea monk
is a TV episode that earth shattering
all cable companies have different agreements
cause it's amc, not cbs. and season finale of madmen is. at least to me.
LIl I was just pissed that I missed it. BUt I see what Doren's program issue is bah irritating
check the website of the network, they will show the listings and you can see when they repeat it (and they WILL)
just missing an sh 5/12 to finish?
jeez
enough already
didn't even realize they'd have a website. thank you monkey
I am struggling with these last 11
yw dorens... everything has a website these days i think
Hi everyone. I am struggling with my last 94...
HA red
i'm struggling with the last 31. not in the mood either
hi red
ahhh got it fireworks
Make that ten
HI Red
Hi la
YAH LA
yay leslie!
woo hoooooooooooo leslie ann
i can't find the sh6 yiddish word
i am too shikse
sh + Vietnamese holiday + cons.
wow I really didn't think that the Gulf spill affected that many outside businesses. I am so dense
been a very big problem in Florida for tourists, and also in LA for the fishing...
thank you TOR GA LISH OUS
hi all -- just a few mo's before we go out for dinner
hi nanny
I didn't think that way. BUt the thing is we also don't get much news out from the States unless you are a desperate skank from reality TV
mmm - no list I see -- maybe I won't bother!
this is true, we also dont get too much news from Aus unless someone does something liek with wild animals or something...
i've a list in my profile, nan
i was surprised to find out when I was at work that the majority of Americans don't seem to know that BP stands for BRITISH petroleum
Or Wild ANimals eating someone :D
exactly!
or if a dingo ate a baby, herin
ty dawger -- but not enough time for that!
I knew that bit Monkey. I found it delightful that the ill caring CEO person got sent to Siberia
Good evening, ladies & gentlemen!
OH! love the shells in your icon pic, red!
That is actually a new inquiry to have that on the death cert Monkey.
HI Scrabbler
hellooooooooo scrabs
hi scrabs!
grats la and hello red and scrabs
*hearing Elaine Benes say, "Maybe the dingo ate your baby."*
LOL scrabbler
lol
Or if you are a Buffy nut Dingo Ate my Baby was Oz's band name
OMG.
The characters and humor of Seinfeld is timeless, at least so far.
to me. no matter how awful a person you think you are at times, you are a saint cpmared to them
What did I say now
is a lot of the appeal
True
tonight was the episode where they were at susan's funeral and her parents patted george on the shoulder and said they would leave him alone with her, they were sure he had a lot to say to her.
Who wrote call of the Wild and was that the person that lived in a cabin to do it?
Jack London
and he replied "no, really, I'm good..."
bye :)
Bye CYber.
Bye Nan
Did he live in a cabin to write that?
I don't know
I am unsure where Jack ondon lived.
I am trying to remember the writer that lived in the wild and wrote a book. ANd no I don't mean Twatlight either
Thoreau
For info on Jack London - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lond on
Not sure if that is the one. Gah irritating
Jack London lived in San Francisco for at least a while, and Alaska too...
hey all
HI Stid
Okay, not getting either of the sh6/21 clues...getting as thick headed as I am tired with this grid!
modern author? Christopher McCandless ?
sorry he went wild but did not write
Jill it is a village in Europe
Google Yiddish for town.
I think that may be Jack Kerouac you are thinking of - he wrote 'On the Road'
thats the Into the Wild one TO?
Maybe Crow. I had this fantastic dream last night were I lived in a cabin in the wilderness and the view was amazing
yes. i truly believe he was schizophrenic.
Good lord...would NEVER have found that one...TYVM herin!!
well, just hit half way. tiresome
Jilly it is too hard to clue. I was just trying to think what you actually needed
Jillyjill - 1st sh6/21 is a woman's name that defies the 'i before e, except after c' rule and is also what the Australians call a girl (Their men are all called 'Bruce'.)
have needed 23 for ages. no motivation to finish. unless someone want sot cleu the eight sor at least the first two letters?
this has been a wicked grid...maybe the more so with Lickety being absent
I am done. Stupid babblets got me
To - la8.45 - a superlative roof beam?
have only at8
Hey Jac!! Thanks for posting the clues for today....I can always count on you!!
ty jacs, like you said we have been playhing too long!
le8/40 - plural of the le4.4 before it, which rhymes with man on the moon Mr. Armstrong's first name.
ta8/40 - the most torn, frayed and scruffy.
deat
Whoops, still need the FIRST sh6/21
er, le 8 is plural of le 4 before it?
at8/45 - bore witness.
please??? *tears rolling down cheeks*
TO - we have indeed, but it's fun.
Jillyjill - I just clued that! Woman's name, Aussie girl etc.
Jillyjill - here it is again: Jillyjill - 1st sh6/21 is a woman's name that defies the 'i before e, except after c' rule and is also what the Australians call a girl (Their men are all called 'Bruce'.)
Okay....pass the tartar sauce on that one...ty jac
You got it?
Well, have 14 left and obviously need a break...bbl to finish...thanks again everyone
missing le8
Ya, I got it Jac...
Right I am going to go and do stuff like assignments and stuff (mum says it is the thought that counts
I have 54 left, starting to dislike the grid...
TO - you know those reality shows on TV? Well try being 'real' and then trussing it up at then end and changing the first letter.
Herin - do them, don't just think about doing them.x
Oh nice clue jacula, odd one, but I found it!
Red - I'm amazed it worked! Babblers are an amazing bunch, though.
indeed we are.
TO - got it yet?
no
TO - have you got the first le4/4 (the word after the green thing on a tree)?
Well, at this time of the year, it's more likely a yellow, orange or red thing about to fall off a tree... but you get my point?
yes
got it ty
Phew! Thought I might have to spell it out there for a moment.x
zipping it jacs x
oh I am going to have to go to bed, and I was finally getting my stats up to a normal level again, but it will nose dive. oh well, no matter.
Sleep well, Red.
TO - you off to bed, too?
I've just been on FB, seeing my daughter asking her friend where she got the sticky out net slip from for her 50s/60s dress. Oh LOL. Me and my Mum had matching ones. I still have the pattern she used to make them.
no , too het up.
oh my, remember crinolines?
TO - take deep breaths... think calm thoughts...
TO - not the original crinolines, no, LOL. Don't remember bustles either, though they might be handy these days in place of a handbg (or purse, as you in USA call it).
Having said that, how would you stop a mugger pinching the contents of your bustle? I guess, if it was hiding a large bottom, you could sit on him?
Or maybe you could put a loaded mousetrap in it?
The 'you' is a general term, btw, not talking about you personally, TO.
:p
howdy everyone;)
Hi Crossy.
Trst you to turn up when large female posteriors are mentioned. *grins*
*Trust
cute,iron taut tushies?? where?
lol
*Thwacks Crossy around the mush so he sees double and can't read the back chog.*
well let's just say tushies and omit the details
scrolling back with vigor....
*Hands Crossy a double whiskey and a fruit smoothie to see which he chooses.*
Oh, he's taking his time choosing! LOL
Or maybe still scrolling back with vigor...
mmm,whiskey
gaelic had a name for whiskey,think it meant "angels tears'
Best Irish whiskey - Jamesons.
i am partial to the rare limited edition glenfidditch offerings when i partake of the whiskey
*wandering off*
That's Scotch whisky for you then, crossy.
I'm going to wander off, too, now. Happy Babbling all.xx

ROFL
crossy....you do have such a way with words! :)
and everyone say hello to my lovely better half..elegant!
hello elegant
athiest is a word isn't it?
hi mrs crossy
errr.."elegant" pardon me
dam what is that la8? can anyone clue me?
Hello everyone. I don't know why you have to announce my presence to everyone Crossy.
because i love you and wish to share you with the word my dear.....
well, shoot...lil* add a stick to my phantom word and you'll get the la8
oh yay! thanks pini
so....crossy have you roped elegant into folding yet???
on that note, I'd better find a list and get crackin' to figure out what I'm missin'...
not yet,but i am eyeing her computer for it as we speak
Rolls eyes at Crossy.
my fold is still chugging along...like a sloth!!
crossy, when did I start???
it is ok pini! every little bit will help
this past weekend?
i think so pini
I'm up to 56/100...*sigh*
(on my first fold!)
my old computer is folding 1 protein every 3 days,so do not feel bad pini
faster gaming computers can fold up to ten a day
the 100's are slow....is ur computer on all the time pini?
at the rate mine's going...it'll be close to 2 weeks before I get my first! :(
i am 48 hours now on a 100 and yet i did a 250 in 16 hours
the computer's on all the time, but I'm not
I don`t have it on my pc pet but was folding a long time ago. I need to get it running. We need to find a cure for cancer!
thats why jmc is so far ahead,his computers are business rigs and on 24/7
hopefully i will be awake when this one finishes..am at 93/100 my son on 18/50 right now
they get 30 meg high speed on some of those office lines!
my daughter forgets to turn on the program but she has one under her belt too
(jmc is a girl) :)
HER computer
* smile *
she was one of my roommates on our PNW get together this summer
pnw?
pacific northwest ;)
oh ok... gotcha
;)
* now off to find that list *
i am a long waY from listing yet;((
how many words, crossy?
i still have 59 words not even looking anymore
i am only 40 in,been to busy shilling our folding at home team..look in my profile for more info lol
I have 66/62...
as long as you're doing something constructive, crossy!!! :)
3 left and they are all te words, I believe after the school work thing...am missing the last two 6/18's and the 7/28....
if we can cure cancer..i will be content pini

yay... you might htey be?
I added a second computer today...

Hello again...

so true, crossy; hi jellen, Jilly
i have been...sorry not in much mood...
nm got it...fw
wtg jilly
ya....I WORKED for this one...lol
Hooray for Jilly!!!
*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~*for jilly
yaa for jilly!!!
Thanks carleet, jellen, crossy and pini
it is ok carlee,i apreciate all the help i can get,and will not ask of anyone more than they can give
Today's just been a horrible day for you... (((carlee)))
my daughter decided to blindside me today with some news....that i am having a really hard time digesting
thanks jells {{hugs}} back
(((hugs))) for carlee
thanks jilly
((((carlee))))
my nose is all plugged...my eyes hurt...
{{dawg}} ... ok..anyway..babbling and folding
( and watching raccoons on a webcam)
i am sorry carlee,what news?
my daughter announced she is moving in with her father
For a whole different reason, but I know what it is like to be totally blindsided by someone you love...you have my thoughts and prayers
how old is your daughter?
(not that it's any of my business)
my mum is completely and utterly shocked...and everyone who i have told who knows "us" is dumbfounded
14
hmmm...
14 is a hard age....have you talked with her yet?
everyone is shocked beyond belief...rendered speachless by this desicion
she announced to me on phone..and is staying there tonight
and she is a very mature 14....and she and i have always been incredibly close
i am mom she is daughter...but she and I are very gilmore'ish
are you the custodial parent?
right now..yes...we are working on our separation agreement right now
whatn is 'gilmorish"
Oh, oops...sorry...
gilmore girls...
Truly, from one who works with teens, it is a hard time for her and she may just be trying to feel or work things out the best she can...there can be SO much with this
I don't want to be too pushy, but you might want to consider counseling?
i work with teens too jilly.. we are pretty... close... and we talk...my son too...we talk...
i can see that i am out of my league here,so i will leave it to you ladies and your wise council..
i know what this is about and she is doing it out of guilt that her father has laid on her...
oh its ok crossy
oooh 94/100
he is a manipulative control freak... and this is a guilt that he has laid on the kids... my son said no so out of default she is going..when neither of them should go
LIke I said, difficult time for ALL of you. I do know that she has not changed her feelings for you and I do know it will work out...just keep your good dialogue with her
oh i know she loves me... i just think she is making a huge mistake here...
Sometimes they have to learn the hard way...
gramma is going to read the riot act to her tho....she is livid beyond belief
yes,whatever else happens,keep the communication lines open
anyway..enough...i have cried and moaned..and cried and had a bath...eaten carrot cake...and now am babbling with a stuffy nose and swollen eyes
crossy bear hugs for carlee ((((()))))
oh hey..look at that 57 words left now....
Well, we care about you and are here for whatever little things we can offer.....
thanks crossy...appreciate it
thanks jilly....( although i had an interesting thought earlier...everyone says God only gives us as much as we can cope with...someone then pls explai nervous breakdowns to me )
Go Carlee....
cus today i just wanted to curl up in a ball with a blanket and tune out the world after the last 3 + years of crap
Yes, that was a Mother Teresa quote "God only gives us what we can handle...I just wish He wouldn't trust us so much". I actually am not sure I agree with that
Have you read the book "The Shack"?
nope...is it a self help book?
i only last about 20 pages in those
*double backflips hugs with hot choclit for carlee*
{{STIDDY}} bone crushing hugs...ur a site for very sore eyes stiddy
Nope....kinda hard to define it...novel about a man who has a terrible tragedy to work thru
I was going to lurk, but you seemed to need support tonight... ((((more hugs))))
hey all!
Hi stiddy!!
I read what's going on, but feel free to fill me in if it helps.
thanks... i am so sick of brining crap in the chog...but.. i seems my lifeis just..full of an abundance of never ending crap... i finally 2 or 3 days ago was "hey..ok I am coping..and ok..and i will get through this" and blammo
Hi, stid...
that what going on stiddy....that all i know
hey jellen :-)
that's probably enough, eh, carlee?
its enough
Stiddy!
my face is sore right now...physically feels bruised
when I grow up, I will make all the mean people serve lunch detention. *stern teacher-mama look*
LBD!!!!
rofl... I have one kid who scowled at me today, so I started scowling at him. We had a scowling contest the rest of the day -- every time he saw me he scowled, every time I saw him, I scowled... tomorrow I will give him a gold star for scowly-ness.
heheh..that is funny stiddy
YES!! I did it! halfway and NBT with NO HELP!
lol...my son needed a teach like you stid!!
lol, i love it when teachers dish it back to the kids!
*applies cold washrag to Carleekat's eyes*
I am getting WAY better at stuff like that LBD. I am just trying to be careful to do that only when it is a student with good general self esteem.
cucumbers work really well too
thanks jilly... and yes stiddy...doesnt work on those with low self esteem
yea...but then i cant read screen..
dawg...I still have some cukes in my fridge....lol!!
oh! LBD! I did something that made some of my students REALLY rethink my teaching... the phone was ringing while I was talking to a student, and several turned around to find out why I wasn't answering it. SO, I just told them that I was more interested in my students who needed me than in the phone.
if they know you're playing with them, it helps them to make a connection with an adult.
my son was really good...he gave me a very long hug...
*pokes holes in cukes for carlee*
anyway... I think that impressed them.
hehehe...silly stiddy
ahhh, good for son
it would stiddy...i have done same at pathfinders/ guides....
my cell will ring..i press ignore..and turn back
very good for son, carlee. (((hugs again)))
( he's an excellent hugger too )
i do the phone thing with customers. I just let them know that I serve the customers who are there first!
yep. later the cooperating teacher told me that particular type of ring means its internal to the school and I should either look at the number to see if it's the office trying to call me or check the caller ID as soon as possible to be sure I don't need to return the call. So much to learn!
i really get irritated by the customer who has to talk on the phone while s/he expects me to "help" them. grrrrr. I ignore them after a minute or two.
very maxine-ish of you, LBD
stiddy you have inspired me btw..i am seriously thinking about going back to school myself for teaching too
lol
if a customer is yakking on the phone i immediatly turn to the next customer and make the cell phone junkie wait
oh carlee, you would be SO GOOD as a teacher! But I gotta warn you, this student-teaching gig is REALLY hard on any "life" I used to have.
oh cross! you curmudgeon, you!
how is mrs. cross?
i wonder how they would fe4 if i just kept on talking as if they we're being civil?
she is fine stidmama,the usual life issues but we are managing in love
good. *approving mama look* and assume you are doing okay too -- how's the current health plan working for you?
does she babble, crossy?
i can face any problem as long as she is holding my hand....
I mean, you know, actually sleeping and eating more healthily and such.
she does on ocasion lbd
LBD, I think being married to crossy would make any woman babble... *wicked mama look*
ok..well..i think i am going to bed... thanks all {{{hugs}}} round the room..if i cant sleep i may come back
lol,i am a burden sometimes...
gn carlee and may you find a restfull sleep
