It is Dylan

I have to admit something to everyone tonight
no miss jilli, the only sugar came with the yogurt I added into the cheesecake mix and the whipped topping mixed with mango puree...otherwise each bite had only one drop of honey squeezed from the bottle.

di5/14 - Old fashioned verb form of 'to do'
er4/4 - Eric little comic counterparts
ed4 and ed5 - proofreads and makes changes
thanx Haz
You're welcome.
hello hello bonjour guten morgen etc etc
Suitable salutations! Good morning to you.
I have a cross and ill cat
That's not good news. What's wrong with her?
vomiting, diarrhoea, general grumpiness at the situation!
I'll bet and I imagine you're not too happy either.
Something she ate?
not vastly ... am going to whisk her down to the vets later, she's got such a sensitive tummy anyway that it's probably worth checking out
no idea! maybe ...
How long has it been going on?
2 days on and off, just now 100% on not off!
She's still drinking and on her feet?
yes .... I know I'm being overly worried, but she just has such issues with her tummy anyway ...
No, you're right to get her checked over if only to try to get the sickness stopped etc. Support your local vet, I say. No doubt she says something quite different.
that's what I was thinking, at least get her an anti-nausea something. and they are open normally on saturdays now, so it's not asking anything special of them
Plus, if you leave it until Sunday, you're probably into emergency fee time.
oh yes! they always like seeing Sily anyway
gosh, just thought, I don't think she's ever gone to the vets for anything but annual jabs and her original tummy problems as a kitten
She'll forgive you eventually.
it takes a while, she's one of those cats where you can turn the cat carrier upsde down and she still clings in it somehow
That could be a good party trick.
poor Sily - she knows what those vets are like
hello Haz and Ata and all
I know. Awful people.
Hello, lynxxx.
hi lynx! hi stew!
hi Ata, it is nice to see you, so infrequent nowadays
Greetings all
morning FM
Hello, FM!
Hi lynxxx and Ata and Haz Sorry to hear that Sily is not feeling so good :(
hi FM, lyn, Haz, Ata! :o)
and hello dfm.
hi dfm - you do keep odd hours
dfm do you need to be reminded to sleep or eat - can't remember what time it is with you.
Hello, dfm.
erm, possibly both, FM... :o/
:)
good morning everybody
although I'm not sure whether it's safer to cook while sleepy, or sleep on an empty stomach.
hi {{ruby}}! :o)
morning Ruby
{{dfm}}
Morning ruby.
poor Sily, she's off to the ve4 in 40 mins ...
hello lynxx, how are you?
hello haz
Good morning, ruby.
{{FM}}
and Ata is here! yay
haven't seen you in a long time
very well Ruby, spent the afternoon in my small front yard ripping out weeds - much neater
Hope you won't ache too much after that lynxxx.
dfm, you're going to end up with dodgy innards and a shot to bits system if you keep up this daft not eating and sleeping regime. You need to get into a pattern and stick to it, otherwise you'll get yourself into a mess.
hard to imagine gardening! but at least there is no snow left but cold and ground frost
and if you don't would you com eover and do mine too?
in that snow - you have to be joking!
nothing got pruned in my garden this year; I hope the roses will be OK until spring
aww... poor Sily Ata, is your icon a picture of her?
Mother Haz has spoken so pay attention!
and I had big plans for the overgrown spirea -- didn't happen
I liked the way he ignored Haz - he's game isn't he?
yeah, I know :o( I keep getting distracted from doing it though...
actually, no, but sily looks very simialar :)
uhoh, do I go to the PB for saying hello to a**?
let me put a pic of sily up. FM will be happy
I have a horrible feeling that he thinks it's more interesting to be neglecting himself than to conform to normal sleep and eating patterns. It won't be interesting when you have a breakdown!
oh yes :)
It's not interesting! :o( I don't like it either...
we will all be happy!
Then take steps to put it right. Schedule a time for eating and stick to it. Ditto for sleeping. I'm concerned for you.
Ata I was looking for the vid of sily purring the other day but couldn't find it :(
when I'm at home I have an alarm clock to remind me... >.>
and when you are on Babble you will get nagged to death so which is the easier option huh?
So, do the same where you are, or schedule your cell phone to go off at certain times. Get a system going or your system will be gone.
If you can't respond to your stomach telling you it needs fuel and if you won't give in to sleep at the right time, then you must make yourself obey the regime/timetable.
and stock up on some pre-prepared foods or healthy snacks so it no hassle to 'eat'. You have a micro-wave?
there is little sily :) I'll make you a new one, FM :)
Good thinking, lynxxx.
And switch off your computer so that you're not tempted by it sitting open when you waken from a nap.
awe I love Sily!!!
Can you have a cat FM?
aww ata I like that shot :o)
no pets allowed unfortunately otherewise I would deffo have a cat and a dog.
I make my monitor inaccessible when I go to sleep at night <.< to get to it I have to physically get out of bed...
So I have adopted Spangle Sily and Hobbit
Maybe you could get that rule changed if you can get the majority of the residents voting for it?
FM You could share Max and Ruby, too, if you like
and there's one FM hasn't seen cos I took it yesterday :D
Gosh I could have a virtual menagerie!
lol Ata just watching the flickr vid of Hobbit in the snow.
Well, I'm going to have to head off soon. It's round 2 of the Great Bridesmaid Dress Hunt today and if I have my way, it'll be the last.
round 2 seems definitely enough
good luck
I think so. You can only look at so many dresses.
I wish you good luck and good hunting Haz!
Bridesmaid! :oO
me bridesmaids dress was easy - I had my grandfather
This will actually be the first time that we've got both bridesmaids together, they've been trying on separately up until now. Divide and conquer, don't you know.
Did he look good in a dress lynxxx?
My daughter is getting married next year, dmf.
ooh :o)
mine, too, I had my son!
BBL convinced my husband we need an evening walk
TTFN then lynxxx
Well, off I go as well. I'll be back later. Toodle-oo!
have a nice walk, lynxx!
Bye Haz see you later.
and good luck with shopping, haz
bye haz, lyn!
yay, half!
yay ruby!
wtg ruby I haven't entered a single word so far - but I have been working so that is my excuse.
multi-tasking FM! I am doing this instead of writing Christmas cards
shhhhh don't mention christmas cards
yes, don't mention them!
and husband is half through! aaargh
nite
nites
uh oh, can't chat....sorry
lucky that haz is gone or I would get yelled at.....slinking off to the PB
She wouldn't yell at you ruby!
hahah
she'd yell quietly!
I would march you straight off to the PB though.
is there more coffee??
Haz doesn't need to yell, she just sounds disapproving
I am a stickler for etiquette.
lol Ata the same way stiddy's 'stern mama look' makes you sit up straighter.
yes LOL
and God help you when she starts tapping her toe!
this is a friendly grid, 111 words already
FM, you could get a pet sp6
eeew I don't think so!!!!!!
or a rainbow boa?
ruby can I go find the chequered flag for you today? :oO
it never happens, dfm
I'll even find the pom poms!
I've only finished a couple of times and FM pretty much carried me across
Time for me to be off as I have some work stuff to do and then a stroll into the village for Saturday papers.
((ruby))
bye FM; happy Saturday!
bye FM!
I'm going to be a good boy and go to sleep now...
Catch you later :)
sweet dreams, dfm

lady, are the Florida oranges surviving the cold?
they say some are lost, but the growers are getting better at finding ways to keep them warm.
seems like it's more challenging every year for growers, eh?
it's cold in Florida??? I have a brother living there. I'm visiting him in March next year.
it was
unusual cold everywhere this year, lilecama
20 degrees Wed morning when i left for work
should be warmer by Mar :0
20 degrees F ? what's that in C?
Yeah, I hope so! I'm going then so it won't be too hot!
it's -7C
20F = -6.6C
oooo - that is cold - only a bit warmer than this part of europe!
where does your brother live? Southern Florida can be HOT in March :-)
hang on..... MINUS 7????? that's unheard of! your poor people. Do you have enough warm clothes?
naples...
Naples should be balmy!
yes, I grew up in Vermont so I know how to dress for the cold!!
balmy? (as in mad?) ??
i can imagine! LOL
good for you lady! Keep warm!
balmy as in tres warm LOL
ah! I'll prepare well.

Take care, DR :-)

yes Carlee- I am excited to see her
You have to try and be strong, Carlee.
I think it this group is so amazing! The support we have for one another is truly a blessing.
you know i have never understood that statement...i uunderstand in my brain i can quantify strength in terms of muscle...but in terms of resilience...and of mind..i just..dont get it
I could not agree more, Car.
i just..cannot bend my brain around what it is i am supposed to do..and when people tell me how strong i am through all this..i dont know what the hell they are talking about...
Some times I think strength just means getting out of bed and keep moving. That is all.
and pseak of devil he is here..byebye all
Oh no.....
Take care, Carlee, don`t let IT get the better of you.
could I have a clue for the 3rd re5/10 please

Ah, frozen coveralls, perfect. Tell me Carlee. Is this something he can REALLY fix, or just something he thinks he can fix?
no..he can
he's all snippy cus i openned one of the bills

Well good, I'm glad he's a real fixer, instead of a poser fixer.
ugh...his doc has suggested he get his toe cut off
zooz, finally found the ar 7
Yay, well done, Annie.
is that all he needs cutting off, Carlee..lol
Oh wow. I forgot about his toe issue.
Hello all!
Hello, Nonnie :-)
Hi Nonnie
Bonjour, Nonnie. Ca va?
hiya zooz and Mark!
and annie!
Any clue for ve7?
ve + consonant + math term si4
Thanks Nonnie
any clue for 2nd ta5/10 please
You're welcome, Kenny :o)
J'nai pas le ne7.
ta = same first 3 letters as the one before and then spanish yes!
jenny, black gooey stuff and a vowel
then extend for a ta7
brilliant thank you
ne7? no, ne7 Mark.
I don't have it.
So it seems someone thought they'd try "shopping" at our house for Christmas the other day. Someone tried to steal our TV while we were at work.
you won`t get it if there is no NE7.
Ouch. That's terrible.
OMG!...did they get caught?
They should have. It takes time to undo and steal a TV.
No. The TV was bolted to the chest it was sitting on and I guess they didn't bring any tools with them. Honestly, I think they were interrupted when my husband came home early. But we're not certain if that is how it played out. They were actually pretty considerate in the fact that they placed items off of the entertainment center onto the chair and floor instead of just ransacking the place.
Where i lived before, i had been burgled twice in one year, not pleasant at all.
My house has never been terrorized by a burglar.
No zooz...it is a terrible feeling to know that a stranger has been in your house.
Strange thing for a thief to do, my place was trashed both times.
fireworks!!
I thought is was very strange...a respectful thief???
wonder why they did not yours..could not be for drug maony..as they would take anything they can lay thier hands on.
congrats jenny!
WTG Jenny!
whoo hoo jenny and bummer nonnie
Hello, Jmc :-)
actually believe it or not a lot of burlars just take the thing they want and don't trash the place
Hey jmc! Welcome to the grid
hi mark -- you be hanging out too muxh with min!
lol
Hi everyone!
Hello, Brookie :-)
They came in the back door and walked all the way from the back room where two computers sit, down the hall past a bedroom where another TV sits and through the dining room past the kitchen and into the livingroom at the front of the house. They had their eye on that TV only...it appears. Almost like they'd been there before, which is an awful thought because then it sounds like someone we know.
With min? She just happens to be babbling when I am.
Hi zooz!
and inspite of the press and cops claims a lot of burglars in hard eco times are just trying to give their families what everyone else has
hi brookie!
Hi jmc!
Welcome to the grid Brookie
can you see the tv from the street nonnie?
Glad to be here, Mark.
did not want to worry you, nonnie, but thats what i was thinking..unless at night they could see the tv on..and thought thats the one they want..nothing else..or could be stolen to order.
Yes, jmc...I guess they can.
that may be the case, Jmc, but they get no sympathy from me.
Just scrolled through the chog. Sorry you went through that, nonnie.
well then i wouldn't expect it to be a friend
no sympathy from me either zooz there are other options
agreed.
my husband was a criminal trial attorney and just because i understand what goes on doesn't mean i approve of burglary
Hiya, Brookie and thanks. It sure could have been a lot worse so I have much to be thankful for.
I must leave all babblers now because I have laundry. Again. Anyway, I may see you later today. Hasta la vista everybody!
for one it was good that they didn't do it when you were in the house!
bye bye mark
A similar thing happened to my parents about a year ago, so I can sympathize.
bye mark
Bye mark!
Yes, jmc...I would rather they take everything we own, just leave my family alone.
that is why it is a worse crime to burglar when some one is in the house
Where your parents out of the house, brookie?
Bye, Mark.
where = were
things could go down hill very quickly i am sure..what a horrible thought.
Yes, my parents were both out at the time.
thank goodness.
Thank goodness, brookie.
when i was burgled last november i was at home
Definitely.
That'
that was the first time being burgled creeped me out
That's awful, jmc
Oh no, jmc. Did they catch the person(s) who did it?
they took my purse and my laptop and my camera
they did nonnie and it is a funny story
oh sorry to hear that, Jmc..must of been terrifying.
Please do tell
i got my purse back when a client called to say someone had called her because they had found my purse in the alley with my clients papers in it
For goodness sake!
your joking..what are the chances of that happening.
actually i should say i came home exhausted that night and went to bed at midnight after dropping everything on the floor of my kitchen at the back of the house
but the doors were locked right?
I woke up at 3 am not knowing why (later realized it was because the back door slammed) and decided to do some work
apparently not well enough zooz
i could find my computer but decided that i was stressed (my mother was dying) and it was 3 o clock and i would find it inthe morning
in morning i looked and then called my boyu saying i am either crazy or i was burgled please come here and tell me which one
very distressing.
anyway later i was calling to cancel my credit card when the police called to say my wallet had been found
so i got that back and i knew they hadn't gotten any cash out of it because i had given all my cash to my boy
I am sure if you report credit cards stolen over here they are automaticaly cancelled.
the police said apparently they were driving down the alleys and two guys would try back doors, open the ones they could, and grab what was handy and then move on. the guy in the van would go through the stuff and toss the useless increminating stuff out the window
thus we found my purse and my waller--credit cards are not very useful and are very incrimnating
same here zozz
anyway several months later i got a call from the police at my office
i freaked out because i thought something had happened to my boy but instead it was a detective asking me if i knew some guy from baltimore
to wrap it up they had found my business card in a van of a guy they wanted for other things and because of that they were able to connect him with theseries of robberies
AND it turned out they had my lap top because it was too crummy to sell
unbelievable.
charming about the laptop..lol
so poor guy got only a cheap camera and a much bigger charge for having burgled me!
serves him right.
Wow...that is amazing, jmc. But the thought of them being in your home while you were there is too scary.
basically they were counting on the fact that thie neighborhood is the kind where when you wake up in the morning and see you forgot to lock your backdoor you laugh and go oops!
so they burgled dozens of homes
I now have sliding bolts on those doors
quite a story, jmc
Don`t blame you.
sorry lynxx says that i go on too long sometimes
i am afraid i am a bit of a story teller
not at all, it was good to hear your story.
Good moring! JMC just read your posts! OMG glad you are safe
good morning everyone;)
Yes, we had gotton too lax with locking our back door because we'd had 3 dogs and one was an excellent guard dog. Two of our furry friends have passed on and so Gracie goes everywhere with my husband so the backyard is easy access for anyone willing to take a chance.

131 words, but still don't have the bottom d or any 7's....is anybody there????
re7 past tense of no longer working is all I have
Hi all. Have popped quickly in. I've just found the in7 which means an alternative to something.
thank you, neliamne, that gave me two!
ty hydra! now I have two 7's, yay
Wonder what the others are?
te7
the di5 is ye olde way of asking if you've done something
ty hootowl, nbt now

if you have the te5 add cons and plaral
oooo wonderful!

ty hoot, got them

yw - glad I made them understanable
no idea of the provenance, though. Most are pieces of amonites
I'm good at fish and sea urchins!
I've found the ar7. The comparative form of the ar4 before it.
I'm trying to get husband to use his guidebook to identify them, giving him something to do since satellite has been out for 10 days and he's going crazy!
ty hydra; I had the ar6 form of the same word, only less sn***
hello everyone :)
hello waver
144 and good nite everybody! I certainly killed the chat
take care rubyfoo
bye waver, you too
Hiya, folks. Has anyone heard any information on Nancy Boy yet?
What is going on with him?
?
Per chat yesterday - it was implied that something bad happend to him, but there was no elaboration. Many of us are very concerned.
you don't get to know if you're not in the inner sanctum
hello everyone
Apparently not, Ata. Also - whatever happened to him happened over a week ago.
I didn't know there was an inner sanctum.
oh yes, was a good few days ago now
I thought I was in the inner sanctum. Imagine the blow to my ego.
um I thought we were one big babble family ... so I don't get the "inner sanctum"
speaking from the outer sanctum anyone have a clue for the second te 5/10?
..and speaking from the outer sanctum...i think we need to vote on a new name :)
my second one is a fish, really
I don't care what sanctum anyone is in. He's a sweet kid and I would just like to know if he is okay.
thanks, ata, definitely a fish
well, unfrtunately it's apparently a secret
gotta love the internet
welki!!
*hands on hips* I'm assuming he was either injured or arrested. I'd like to know if he needs help in any way.
i was concerned, too ... apparently i'm not in the loop either
that's odd considering nb himself is usually straightforward about his difficulties
hi hi hi and bye bye bye ... just a quick peek in
jumping in here - sticking my neck way out (from the outer sanctum) - as one who LOVES NB, I say let him have his privacy. If he wanted us to know, he'd know how to do it
Hello, Welki.
then how do we know?
Wiki Leaks ?
I'm all for maintaining privacy, JBV. I and many others would just like to know if he is okay. No details required.
:)
LOL, jbv, and fireworks
how are YOU doing JBV??
lol. Wiki Leaks. *smacks forehead* Of course!
Hi wildcat - moving along, keeping busy, babbling.... :)
good good (((hugs)))
I have so many on-going projects that have been temporarily interrupted, so my goal is to get back to some semblance of a normal routine
and then, of course, there are all the new unwanted projects that involve the tasks that have to be done
but never too busy to Babble
Hi everybody. ((JBV))) Lovely to see you.
Priorities, JBV. Babble first. All other projects second.
amen to that
Anyone who doesn't agree with that Judi is probably not here :)
hello to the afternoon shift
hi Soodle
hi TO
Hi TO
I went to my Italian class last night, and back to my Weight Watchers meeting this morning
hi jbv, soodle,
Hiya, TO.
where do you take italian, jbv?
hi judi
good day all.
I found out there's a large Italian-American Association near where I live and they run classes on Friday night at a public school
hi red
that is great. hi red.
cost is minimal - I paid $75 for 20 classes
Hey Red.
Hope everyone is having a nice day!
a bargain
plus I discovered a new neighborhood which I did not know has several authentic Italian food places - groceries, restaurants, etc. -
that sounds like a lot of fun JBV.
it is red, though I had to give up my Chinese lessons from last year - my brain could not handle both languages at once
MMMM. Italian pastries.
but Italian is in my heart and soul and I am finding this so beneficial to my mental well-being
pastries, cheese, breads, you name it, Judi - it's here and it's fresh!
*drooling*
well the Q's have been managed.
hello. stats for the lone D bottom row 3rd column plz?
its a 5, 14... Hi lbd.
DI 5/14,
hi red!
Hi Lbd.
hi soodle and lbd.
hi soodle!
fish slap me for missing that one!
my laundry has been hanging all day and is still not dry :(
yugh TO.
I can't remember the last time I hung clothes out to dry..... Its either been raining or freezing here since September!
i so hate putting linens in the dryer
need new no wrinkle sheets
Back to the rescue centre today... and came home with a new puppy. A collie cross-breed. She is the most adorable little munchkin you ever saw.... Only 9 weeks old, and going by the name of Daisy!
ooh soodle, sounds cute!
Hello, Babble buddies!
hi and bye, folks - I'm working on learning Photoshop, needs all my attention, see you later and good luck
Lovely, Soodle. You must post a pic!
back to say hi and bye to Scrabbler!
Oooh, Soodle, how exciting!
How are you feeling, Owl?
Hiya, Scrabbs!
Will do! Hello Scrabbs.... How are the bunnies?
We just had a ten minute session of "straigtening the Christmas tree". All very technical and labor intensive.
Doing well! Just 20 more nails to clip.
Judi, that is always challenging, especially if the ceiling is getting scratched up.
No where near that tall, Scrabbs. It's only about six footer. If it was up to my husband, the thing would be taller and wider than our whole living room.
I always have to remind him of the proper scale when we go tree hunting.
Good for you, Judi.
It smells wonderful!
And the funds went to our church youth group, so double the goodness.
76 left. It is time to get some chores done. BBL
clue for ar 6
that's what I was going to ask Boo
ar6 = like a bottom
nm, I have the two ar 6's, it was the ar 7 I was looking
ar7 is very very similar to the second ar6.18
Hello everyone. Hi Rolin
Hi Lynxxx
hey lynxxx
pins
dins
rins
rins
ooooooh...soooooory
ty lynxxx and hi
this is one of those miserable grids agin
because of its size Boo? at least it has more findable words than the last couple
No not really. It looks like the words are harder to find
Hello, Everybody. We are officially snowed in here today; but I have my 19 month old grandson and doubt that I will finish the grid because of him.
oh hi Nef..he can help you
hi Nef
RRIIIGGGHHHTTT, Boobear! His idea of "helping" me is hitting the mouse repeatedly upside down (he's down for a nap now)
allo allo!
hi lynxxx. How are you today?
hi PAV
BBL It is such a lovely morning here Stew and I might have a walk early. 'allo back Pav
I have a refernce book for crossy, so if anyone sees him....
Hi Pav Nef and Lynxxx..
hi red.
I am believing that the grid is now done for me with 49 left...where are they?
red, I'm now at 41 left,,so there are more..
i'm down to 42. but its slim piking...
picking.
picky picky
34 here...to list or not?
what with the icon theme. . . .
jmc..I think it's supposed to be snowflakes...
uh oh navy is blowing away army and my friend's dad coaches army :-(
GO NAVY! I love the color blue...
hey!
well, it's true! and I don't do camo well...
lol i wouldn't care at all but for my friend
Afternoon all! Any bakers in the midst? Have a question...
i can pretend what is the question?
WE can pretend....if it's cheesecake related
or cookies or pies or cakes...
I'm working on a rolled cookie. Any tips on doing so without the dough breaking?
keep some water to sprinkle on it
ahh, works best rolled onto marble top, or a t least chilled, using flour also on the surface to keep from sticking. They say to let dough chill a bit before rolling
wd pav
and don't roll too thin...small batches work better than one massive roll...
Ok will try those tips... gotta run!
anything else jmc?
no i think you said it all
I haven't done rolled cookies in a while...too hot here
down to 30 left
i am actually a terrible baker
when i made cup cakes for my boys preK the teachers had to order the kids to say thank you
well unless the kids were being terribly rude and refusing to eat, or spitting the cakes out, perhaps they were reinforcing etiquette?
it is so odd to watch them interview the head coach and know that i am good friends with his daughter and grandkids
that's not too unusual jmc. They forget their manners easily
the kids didn't finish the cupcakes lol
they were gagging
the cupcakes really did suck
baking is not easy, nor should we take it for granted...even I have difficulties with my cheesecakes at times...I took a long break at one point, I was so disgusted with how they were turning out...
my husband was a great baker used to make bagels with the kids for fun
I've made bagels. They are fun to make
the leaves are slowly falling from my lemon tree...I have/had 6 lemons this season!
neat
I've been waiting all year for them to turn so I could pick them and then repot the tree...it's been growing indoors in pots (3rd repotting) for about 5 years now...
must be heavy to pick up
I hope not!
how can taser be not a word?!
i thought it was a tazer
i've seen both
aHi cos!
maybe its the newspaper misspelling it then :)
hi cosd
Hi all!
Taser is actually a brand name...like xerox

Hey everybody. Went to rescue centre today and got ourselves a new puppy. Daisy is her name, and she is a little dote!
I'll pop in from time to time, then...congrats! and vg Soodle
we'll expect pics!
Thanks Pav... I will post pics asap. She could fit into a teacup- she is tiny. As I type, she is snuggled up in a blanky, with a hot water bottle, and a clock (trying to simulate her mom...)
congrats soodle
JM!! you're back
i didn't know i was gone
hi ru
oh.. I haven't seen you in weeks.
I thought you went to russia or something
Hi everyone!
i haven't been on all day like i am sometimes iguess! lol
no desire to go to russia too cold!
me too.. maybe that's why I haven't caught you here
hi brookie
congrats on your new puppy, soodle! :-)
how ya doing?
Hi again, jmc!
i am fine -- went on a job interview on monday
with what outfit?
What type of job, jmc?
(inquiring minds want to know)
a quaker org as the head
(hopes for # F)
Head quacker?
#F?
# F outfit
quack quack quack
do i have to google that ru?
Uh.. it was one of the options you wanted opinions on?
ooohhh it was G actually as I recall
jm?
yes ru?
do you get free oatmeal then for life?
lol nope different company
lol nope different company
(Totally lost on convo. F? G?)
(Free oatmeal?)
damn
i ask babblers to vote on potential job interview outfits
jm asked us all to commment on different outfits listed a-h for which one we chose for her upcoming interview
the job interview was with a quaker organization
I liked her in F.. professional and snappy
Gotcha. Thanks.
she looks good in black and white
the G had the black and white blouse from the F but also had a black sweater on top
you haven't seen my haircut i got the day before the jobinterview
short page boy
black and white are quaker colors
JMC, isn't it great to have fashion consultants on babble?
quaker grey ru
lol
no.. that's news to me
absolutely brookie it was a big help to me
have to run
bye fore now
bye ru
See ya, ruru!
Maybe every morning before I go to work, I should post pics of possible outfits. It might help my sales for the day.
lol that is a thought
oh look i got halfway and didn't notice
I'm hopeless when it comes to fashion. I get compliments only on the things that other people pick out for me.
Yay, jmc!
you are so cute in the photo i am sure you are better at it than you think
Everything from the next down is a disaster. :-)
My sister, however, is a fashion queen. She's picked out awesome outfits for me.
From the "neck" down...
lol well maybe you can have her coordinate 10 outfits and just rotate them
Great idea!
i am full of ideas! just not so good on follow through
Muses aren't expected to implement. It takes a team.
lol
Hi again. Hey Brookie... Good to see you :-)
hi soodle
Hi JMC :-)
Hi soodle!
JMC and I were talking about using fellow babblers as fashion consultants. Wanna another money-making opportunity?
clue the ta 6,33 anyone?
Don't have it yet, sorry!
sorry rnp
ok thanks
Brookie... anything that swells the Soodle-Coffers is good with me!
How is soodle doing today?
RNP... that was my last one, and I had to resort to Morewords....TA, high ranking tile, and Pumkin *** ....
ty soodle
thanks soodle
Brookie, Soodle is 100%. We got our new dog today... though, she is so small, dog is too big a word to describe her. She is only a D. I am trying to organise pics.....
What kind of D?
And when will she become a Do, and then a Dog?
Oh, a pure-bred mongrel. A bit of a collie, a bit of a Jack Russell, and a bit of other undetermined species. She is gorgeous!
Sounds intriguingly cute!
I will let you know when she graduates to DO....... How are you doing, Brookie, in matters of the heart?
I'm still getting over the trauma of last week. On eHarmony like crazy. A couple bites. It'll happen when it happens.
I'm not ready to fall in love right now, anyway. I'm just up for dating.
would it be too nosy for me to ask??
Nothing's too nosy in babble!
What would you like to know?
what happened last week
Theres an old saying round these here parts, Brookie.... Whats for you, won't pass you.....
and actually if someone says i am to tired of telling a story or i would rather not i am totally cool with it
Was dumped by the b.f. I totally wasn't expecting it. It turns out he was holding a lot in but didn't communicate it with me and give me a chance to work with him on it.
too bad i wish men were encouraged to talk more
I really thought we had a great relationship. That's what makes me so sad. I thought he was a keeper.
Soodle, you got a new dog? Great. My bichon Bisky doesn't have much longer
At the same time, I can't be with someone who is afraid to communicate with me. I really am approachable.
there is a process about talking as a couple that used to be called acme
Hi bichon!
i am sure you are some guys just don't know where to start
How does the process go?
HI everyone
bettermarriages.com
Hey Bichon. What can I say.. Just enjoy every day with Bisky.
Just glanced at the website. Looks awesome. Will bookmark it.
the idea is that relationships take work even when things are going well so they have retreat weekends for couples and small groups which meet monthly and do exercises to help build communicatin
I'm in CA visiting the grandkids and I spoke to my daughter who is caring for him while I'm gone.
A lot of the problems that were building could have been avoided.
i did it with my hubby and it was really helpful especially during the hard times when he went deaf and communication became a bitch
Hope you're having fun in CA, bichon!
Wow, I can see how that would be a challenge, jmc.
I always have fun in the Bay Area andthe weather is mild.
Oh.. You in San Fransisco, Bichon?
Down the Peninsula a bit, San Mateo. I come out her 4-5 times a year
Gotta go now. Have a great rest of the day, everyone!
Can anybody tell me if my icon has changed?
yeah we could talk in the dark in our beds or when we were driving because we had to face each other in the light so he could read my lips
no Soodle, I see socks
cuuuuuuttttte puppy
bye brookie
bye jmc!
Yaaaaay... Babblers.... Meet Daisy!!!
clue for ar 6,18 anyone?
((((Brookie)))) take care. Talk soon.
How cuuute!
Bye soodle! Thanks for posting the pic!
(meant could not talk all those times)
What are the doggie's partiulars?
RNP... more ar 4/4.......
Glad you asked for particulars rather than pedigree, Bichon! She is 9 weeks old, the runt of a litter of 12, and a cross between a terrier and collie. And cuter than anything.
thanks soodle
yvw, RNP :-)

you know you are a chronic babble player when you judge a new device on its ability to play babble
crossy, do we need to have an intervention?
no intervention..we all understand each othere here in our addiction;)
ahh, a shared addiction is a safe addiction? safety in numbers?
indeed;)
got any 7s? ive got NBT, but i need a 7 for NBS :)
those i-pads look interesting but i still cannot justify 900 dollars for the one with 64 gig ,3g and wi-fi
i have a re 7
and an ar7
re7= when you turn 65 and give up the job
and the ar= someone who is better at critiquing the painting in a gallery than you
TY. thats NBT and NBS for me! not bad, since im just futzing around until dear hubsband needs me again. :)
yaa for eva!

Sshhh, magyk!
Hi all
mmmm..cookies...

hi all again...
*wipes mouth daintily*
hi jilli!
hi jmc :-)

oh how lovely!
all the cookies i made are ok, but none of them wow me. i made some pretty good ones in years past...
seems to me i had a snowflake icon somewhere
ty -- I thought so :-)
i am half way thru my bourbon ball making
jmc....bourbon balls yet?
well..that answers taht then doesnt it
I make and decorated Xmas cookies in all sorts of shapes as a bride, to take to my in-laws. Not appreciated.
Hi all! I am back here again briefly before I goto bed.
Hi min
hi min!
getting there car. no rush
It interfered with *their* plans.
is it snowflake day in babble land?
i think my snowflake icon is on my computer the police still have
Jillibus,love your falling snowflakes. They're so pretty
ah well i had a few run ins with my in-laws
i understand
i definitely had run ins with my in laws
second te5/10?
Yes, carlee. Put me or sprite in your My Friends -- I copy sprite's icon theme list in my profile if you scroll down. Next theme is Christmas Ornaments.
*looks hopefully about the chog*
ahh, thankfully, my parents + my in-laws are impressed that i bake. MY parents, especially, since they know i was never interested in cooking growing up, and not the greatest cook when i first started trying...
Thanks, min -- I was lucky to find them.
the only thing i "bake" is bourbon balls
well and pecan pie
te 5/10 is the *** Offensive plus Somewhere over the **inbow jmcnrick.
My in-laws were great bakers -- I was a novice and thought they'd be pleased at my effort. One of the biggest diappointments of my life when they just glared.

Recipe for bourbon balls, jmc???...
Can never ever get my icons to move in the chat log.
yw
darling husband just pointed out that i havent made him oatmeal cookies in forever. to be exact, it has been 2 years -- i made them for christmas two years ago. and pretty much, the only time i bake cookies from scratch, is christmas. its rare that i am motivated to do so any other time of year... but now, i guess i should schedule some time in the near future to make some oatmeal cookies. :)
it would seem to be the thing to do evan
Min, they have to be small.
Yeah, I have tried small ones too and it never works.
11 to go for me here, but I must go and have some supper. SO tired -- it's been a rough week.
and they have to be .gifs, min.
jilli...i posted my brandy ball recipe on fb the other day if u go back on my profile page
bourbon balls?
poor jilli i won't even send you to the pb
they turned out with a consistency as smooth ad fudge
How can you tell if they're gifs&what does that mean
like rum balls ruru
my specialty ru -- only thing i use jack for besides drinking neat
OH, yes -- I forgot! Thx jmc <blush>
that is the three letters after the dot min
carlee -- was it you who poasted the white chocolate gigner blondie recipe?
lol like rum balls only better ;-)
nope..was not me..i dont like blondies
i am just going to pass on commenting on bourbon balls
min, some images on google are .jpg and some are .gif and some are .png -- just look at the suffix.
for those of us not on your facebook, carlee, can you post the recipe on your profile here? please? thanks
hi joey
<--- will never be on facebook
mayhaps it was car.eeyore, then. i get my "car"s mixed up sometimes. ;)
oh why ru? where is the fun in that
Too bad, ruru -- why?
hi jmcnrick. why do the police have your computer?
love the icon ru! lol
too much exposure...
It's controllable, ruru.
oh because it was stolen and they recovered it but it was still evidence and I am waiting
ok..hold on..will go back and find my recipe and post
thanks
i want it back because my last pics of my mother are on it
oh.. did the thieves play babble in your absense
the whole long story is in the archive today
ahhhhhhh. i understand now. thanks
lol that was last year the week before mother died ru
I'd better go and get that supper -- back asap.
I wondered abuot that player Istolit
lol ru
hb jilli
I will, jmc
ok..in my profile
I am making dinner.. nothing fancy tonight
i kinda felt sorry for the guy he got tagged because my business card dropped out my purse as he rifled it in his truck and my computer was too crummy to sell
and there was no cash in the purse
that'll teach him.. leave the poor non profit people alone
Thank you jillibus. I always see that, but never know what they mean. I'll have to look for gifs from now on
I don't ever feel sorry for thieves ..
lol but all that work and all he got was a major ungrade in sentencing
ungrade?
what an ungrade?
sorry upgrade
evening all
...like take Bernie Madoff's son.. I don't feel sorry for him
I feel sorry for his children and wife.
i SOOOOO don't feel sorry for any madoff
they all got rich on a pyramid scheme
hi pini
i was about to get a really large grant but it the foundation went under because it had invested with madoff
we are a bit scattered pini.. fair warning .. I came in on balls and am trying to change the subject

pi + abbrev for nurse
I am not a beer drinker and was never close. I think beer is an acquired taste and I never acquired taste
ty
me either, min
i loved beer from my first taste at 3 or 4
That pi 4/5 word is pi plus *esidential *urse jmcnrick.
daddy would give me his beer bottle to put away and I would sneak the last drop
Also don't drink wine, so basically I don't drink alcohol

hi dfm -- do tell, pini -- so hard to think of good presents for guys
what kind of a concert, pini?
I had already gotten him a pair of the snowpants...so I gave it to him when they were on their way home tonight ;)
My little bro is in a trio of guys who've been singing together for almost 20 years now...
wow, pini -- what kind of music? I have PBS on now, with fold music like Judy Collins and Pete Seeger
...they have 6 CDs out now and, amazingly enough, it's their combined HOBBY!
*folk, not fold music
They sing Christian music...more contemporary, but some of the old stuff, too, and songs they've written.
I'll send you the link to their sight, jilli, and you can listen to snippets :)
<-- love folk music!
Oh good -- ty!
one moment, please! :)
I'll include links to some of the songs he's featured in (he has an incredible tenor voice)
Meanwhile I'll look for the next icon theme -- Christmas ornaments
Well, shoot...I didn't finish putting the links in and it sent :(
but you'll get the idea...

Christmas ornaments, as Miss Jilli just mentioned
ah...thank you
I have some sad news....my 25 yr old nephew, who I named my sole beneficiary last year, has decided he no longer wishes to try to stay amongst us, and this morning my sis called to say af5 collapsing at home late last night, earlier this morning they found him in bed and he had attempted to slit himself..he was rushed into the ER and I've not heard from them since this morning...he suffers from depression and bi-polar, but I've wondered all along if it isn't something else...
hi all.
any super clues out here?
oh my, pav...so sorry to hear...
I hope you hear soon and that he's getting the help he needs.
pav, i am so so sad to hear this news. how difficult this is. i pray he can get help and look forward to life.
I'll call them tomorrow af5noon; as you may know, most health insur plans won't accept 25 yr olds unless their in school, and he had dropped out years ago....
* sigh *
:o( hope he's alright (both physically and mentally), pav...
he stopped taking his meds in the spring, and has been methodically lying to everyone about taking them. AT EOM Oct, he did the same thing, and just before Thanksgiving he and his gf drove to Albuq to visit my mother -his grandmother- and then returned to MN
* my thoughts and prayers are with him and your family through this tough time *
PAV the new health care law states anyone 26 or under cannot be refused if they still live with their parents. Hopefully that helps. I will put in a prayer.
