I am almost halfway through the quarter. Then student teaching in the spring which will hopefully result in certification.
subbing is a good way to scope a district out. For me, it's a career choice, and a career change. I like the fact that I can take days off as needed, and I like thinking on my feet. And - - surpirse - - - I like teenagers! Young people energize me. We need to make room for them in this world.

Actually, normal time for me. Ever since I started eating well, I seem to need less sleep. I guess that's good?
How are you, lynxxx? Anything new?
hey Brookie! I got up an hour early, and didn't realize it till it was too late. GAH!
Hey, ChampFit. You have an extra hour to your day now!
No its all very boring where I am - not so much in other parts of the country!
I usually start at 5 anyway...today 4
Sometimes no news is good news, lynxxx.
definitely, lynxxx
So are you going to zonk out early this evening then, Champ?
I do that daily Brookie! If I make it past 9, it's unusual.
Hello, All, I have the so9 what does the other 9 start with please?

goooooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx
morning!
Hi frogface!
hello you xxx
hey brookie xxx
Ooooh...had someone take me up on going to the gym...bbl...best of luck!
Enjoy the gym!
have fun - lata xxx
Going now too. Actually feel like getting work done... what a concept!
ooo have fun brook see ya lata xxx
good afternoon all, happy new year!
hiya sprite and happy february to you too lmao xxx
the Chinese NY starts today, frogface, check out my profile :) And that of jillibus, which has a great writeup too.
ooo ok i will once i have one in every box ticked off - although i am struggling with that little idea lol
lol, is it a toughie today?
nah im just crap lol
probably not - almost all regular babblers are darn smart people ;)
define smart
although i am good at certain things it takes me brain a few more hours to wake up nowadays
errrr... like me? *innocent smile*
aww go on - i bet you're cleverer than i am
cant believe there are 13 j words!!!
I can be pretty clever and I can also be incredibly stupid. As most people, I guess. But I am serious about babblers being usually intelligent and good conversationalists. And you don't stand out, so you must be too :)
well i can certainly hold my own conversationally - i like a good natter and i also appreciate and can respond to sensible conversation. and this early in the day it is nice to talk to somebody such as yourself xx
*grin* thanks, and right back at you.
:) welcomexx
13 j words... I can vouch for 7. Am usually finding Js tough to find too. But as long as there are no Ks, I am a happy little babbler.
yikes i got 4 j's!!! well done you
you will find more soon. There are not all weird...just a few :)
although i have got one of the nine's woohoooooo
wtg! I got one too, which is special. Usually I find the biggies somewhere in the middle of the game.
hello friends. almost nbt (missing the two e's in right column) in 25 words....not too shabby!
hey trif xxx
hiya Triffles, great job! Still smiling over the sunny word doc?
well, we have another storm today, with more school closings and such. it is such a bummer, as I am on deadline to finish a coat for a client (costume job) and I can't go any further til I hit the fabric store, but not sure that is going to be possible today
argh, that is not nice. quite a bit of frustration going around, isn't there? Go outside, kick the storm to australia and get on with your day!
any clue for the fe6/42 ?
I think I am going to have to go out, even with the storm. hope the store is open when I get there!
trif...call them first
(missing Es, think to go in x 2 and formerly)
oh, man....thanks sprite. fish for brekky!
hello Ouwachita
thanks ouwachita...I will
*hits Trif over the head with a sweet little guppy*
hi sprite
(((whispering))) I hope work is cancelled today too....
yes that would be nice.
I know for sure two kids won't be there because their schools are closed and they are both contract students. the other students are delivered by their parents, so not sure on them
hm if so, let them be delivered to your place, lol
the good news is that the fabric store is right near the office, so could combine the trip, and thus justify me being out to the fabric store
as long as you are sure to take care of yourself. Schools and such aren't closed for nothing, I bet.
thank you! the kids are always up my nose to drive them over to a friends house on snow days! I don't seem to be successful in getting them to see that snow day means "don't travel"
lol kids will be kids! My son once wanted to go swimming, after we got off of the water on a canoe trip because a thunderstorm broke loose.
well, we lucked out again! little ice, not much snow. they have downgraded warning to advisory
are you in new york ivesy?
ah good for you, ivesy, gratz.
yes, south of buffalo. they must have been hit hard.. everything out there is closed
ugh. I imagine buffalo is just brutal in the winter
my brain doesn't want to accept that onion(s) is a phantom today.
course, now i get to go to work lol, library doesnt close often... buffalo is brutal. normally we are too, but for some reason we havent been getting hit
sprite, I can't get my fingers to agree with my eyes...they just keep typing the same words, even though my brain and eyes know they aren't there...
hehehe at least we understand eachother :D
finally got the fe6...done
ok, I need to take a cat nap. love to all
enjoy, hun! *hugs*
gratz Ouwachita!

the fe6 is a fruit
i flew thru the first 70 now going very slow
Hi Bamakitty, thank you
yw :)
I flew through the first 27. :-)
brazilian fruit, right? now trying to figure out the spelling hahah
have you ever had the black been stew with a related name?
lots of vowels for a 6-letter word
also called a pineapple guava (according to the dictionary)
bean* duh
I am not a fan of black beans
f's finished and 2 of the n's
Um...that Brazilian fruit should NOT be a playable word. NOT.
ruby, why is your hubby in the hospital
((Molly and Bichon)) good morning
clue for fe6?
he fell on Sat after having been sick all week and has pneumonia. I've gone on too much about it all week! embarrassed
fe + me myself and * + ***n Rivers hosted for Johnny Carson sometimes
no need to be embarrassed ruby!
green guava sounds yucky. But the stew is good; I wonder if they put the fruit in it
I think this is the first I've heard of it. Wishing him a speedy recovery
Ruby, we are a family here, never any need to be embarrassed
thank you bichon
Hi Babblers.. opening chat and glad to see a great clue for the fe6, thanks Mom
"Types of words not allowed: Proper nouns, abbreviations, contractions, hyphenated words and foreign words that are not in the Enable Dictionary." Who decides what foreign words ARE and ARE NOT in the Enable dictionary? Very fickle rules.
Good morning Aloy.
morning Aloy
I agree, Molly.. so many foreign currencies are included, for example
enable allows some japanese foods and not others
fe6...fe + me, myself and * + ***n Crawford is a famous actress.
miso, yes, natto, no
MollyL ... i am still ticked off that afro is not a word
of course that shows my age, that I remember Johnny Carson and that I remember a young Joan Rivers :-)
Hi Jmbdobie
right with you, Mom, lol
hi mom
hi jmb and aloy
I can't get over spam not being a word
Jeeze Mom, sorry. I didn't see your clue.
absolutely, I remember Jo** before she had all that work done and she was homely anyway.....
why be sorry, Molly? no need
hi ruby and others
she is definitely a mess now
Hi Ruby, glad to hear your husband is improving. What happened to Gramma? Missed her news.
Gramma had news?
31 left bbl take care all!
bye bye jmb, have a good day
bye, jmb
bye jmb, take care
and pitter is a word.... the pitter patter of little feet
I saw a comment that said "Gee Gramma, that's terrible."
think they referring to fact she could not find her last word
and had to leave anyway
whoohooo - snow day - work closed - cant believe it...good morning everyone
wonder if patter is acceptable
morning River
hi River
woo hoo for ((River)) good moring
yes Aloy, it is :-(
can't have patter without pitter
get your dancing snow shoes out, river!
morning*
Mom, pitter IS IN dictionary.com. Defined as someone who pits. Enable is NOT FAIR.
will need them today - expecting 2 feet
but you can add a S to it and get two words
yikes River!! you folks have certainly been hit this winter
oh dear River, glad you are staying home
sigh, another strike against enable
boo hiss enable!
son said they were expecting snow in Austin!
thats unusual isnt it
yes ruby this storm has affected a lot of areas with snow and ice
have a son in Austin, too, Ruby.. they were enjoying beautiful weather on Sunday
unusual but not unheard of River
River, why can't you believe work and school are closed?
my poor sister in NY has had her car buried for a while
Scrabbler will have lots of snow for skiing
school absolutely but work never closes - this is unusual and I am thankful - have driven to work in many bad storms already this year - the white knuckle rides
no kidding, aloy! Son is a musician, John Reed Kelley, plays with Orange Jefferson (really!) and Think Lizzy. Used to be with mystriousways
The University in our town [hubby's employer] closed last week in the storm. The Canadian professors couldn't believe the school would be closed for only 18" of snow
lol, my son's wife is Lizzie
when I lived in Bignhamton, they used to close the schools with only 6 inches because the school buses couldn't do all the hills
lol bichon it takes a lot for the canadians to shut down
it would be funny if they know his music!
They think we're sissies
exactly ruby
will ask, Ruby.. wife is def. into country music
those old Bluebird buses
aaah, he plays classic rock and blues. With mysterious ways he played only (boring) U2
morning all
hello carlee
Binghamton has had 4 or 5 snow days already this year.

hi carlee
i cant see out my bedroom window for a snowdrift on the overhang
hi carlee
I used to love that, would go skiing anyway
would occasionally land in a ditch, but it was worth it
finally found a use for that tion ending, yay
Ruby, I didn't realize you had lived in the Southerntier of NY

Hello everyone! How is everyone doing? I'm in the middle of this blizzard, snowed in with my work (a grocery store) asking me how long I think I'll be stuck at home. Crazy people.

I think he's getting better
hey, Annie :-)

83 words but need a nap. Bye for now and {{everybody!!}}
nagh, not till may. Just til Thursday. We're actually used to snow and all that, so once the weather stops precipitating, we'll have the roads cleared and businesses back open in 24 hours or less.
my young dog is so funny - loves this snow - rolls in it making doggie angels
bye ((ruby))
bye bye ruby
byebye ruby
bye ((Ruby))
of course, getting the storm to stop seems to be a trick. Right now they're saying snow til at least 3pm
someone can stop shaking the snow globe please
I had to come back to say I love the idea of doggie snow angels *real poof*
we have out first 4 inches or so right now - supposed I should shovel that before it gets too heavy - will be out there every 2 hours I think
fe 6/43 plz
oops thats 6/42
sinn fe*n+ ***n of arc/ collins/crawford/river
Y'all in the path of the big storm, stay safe. I'm glad to hear that things are SENSIBLY closing down. It always disturbs me to hear that places of employment stay open in bad weather.
it can be time consuming River but trying to stay ahead of it is better I think than trying to do it all at once
there is no way I will be able to shovel 2 feet when this is done
hospitals and pharmaces never close
won't help, river. if you're getting our storm, the wind makes shovelling impossible. There is no point. my husband was supposed to go to work at 6am, so he was out at 4am to try and shovel out, and an hour later when I attempted teh same, his foot prints were completely gone.
I think it's better for you to do it a bit at a time Nono. If you wait until it's all done, the snow is too heavy and it's bad for your back and other things.
pharmacies even. I used to work in a hospital and my b-il-l works at Rite Aid
hi all
I am lucky - my work closed today but husband had to go in -wasnt happy
the grocery store I work for is open. They want me to try and come in when I can, but the roads are closed in our entire county.
found 11 of the j words myself :)
hi Peri
hi NoNo
i wait until my neighbour comes along with the snowblower..i have 4x4...i just drive through

I am trying not to list too but do not want to get frustrated nor sit here all day

no thanks peri
which one? I have so8/9
plural it for the 9
the other 9 is sn9 of the word work being nosy
word for*
ty NoNo, have the base word but did not think to extend it
thanks Nono
one good thing about this storm... the stupid groundhog did not see his shadow
River, does your husband work in some kind of emergency capacity?
no he is an engineer
he called before leaving but they were open for business - my company closed (insurance) I was very thankful
all 6 so words come off the so4/7
one word left and its a p8
Well River, I'm sorry he has to go out in such bad weather. I wish him safe travels.
found it! FIREWORKS!!
he doesnt mind driving in this though - i get very nervous
yay for Nono
would you care to clue that P8 Nono
river if something is very cute it is pr6 make that pl.

Annie, how is the snow up your way?
not snowing today, just dreary icy rain
Ah, the slippery stuff. We got by with just rain. Hooray.
Dorens, Is it snowing in New Jersey?
Molly, you were lucky...Im glad
not now, everything is just covered in ice. I heard something sounding like a gun shot a while ago.... a tree down
Oh boy
so your streets are just wet, not ice covered Annie?
dorens, Icy streets but the main streets are okay...going to try and get the car out later, need to go out so I will see how lucky I am

Hello Babbler friends! How are y'all?
hi mark
doing fine, mark... and you?
My house has two feet of snow on it. It is AWESOME!
brother was in LV at a casino yesterday while the pro bowl was on score at the time was 42-7 a real blow out.just for laughs he walked up to the counter and asked what the payoff would be on a finish spread of less than 10 points,the guy thought a minute and offered him the odds of 1000 to1.he had the hundred dollar bill in his hand and the wife told him not to waste his cash....final score 55-46.....
lol
payoff would of been 100,000
oh crossy!
he was right there with the cash in hand about to hand it over! lol
Wow. Almost there!
mark most of the snow has blown off the top of the house but we have drifts about 5 feet high in the yard.
stop rolling your eyes crossy. this is new to us!
GE, I have the same thing. We could go sledding!
2 of my kids are still sleeping but we will all be going out shortly to shovel and play!
i hear that some places are getting ice after th snow. is that you?
lol,i am not laughing honesy
honest
morning, all!
howdy uu
hmm if you can't spell it you can't feel it
how did you fare uusue?
18.7" of snow here over the past 2 days, temps tonight could fall as low as -20
i iz having a case of the sneezles....
and it's still windy
Not us, GE. We just finished.
Hey uu!
Hey, Mark!
can't believe the poor folks trapped on LSD for 9 hours last night
yeah, that looked awful. One lady said she got on at 3 pm hoping to beat the storm; she's off the Drive but still not home
That is terrible. We got hit terribly.
looks like there won't be much of a snow removal window between the wind dying down and the temps crashing, so we'll probably get out there soon even though it's still blowing
yeah it's fun when you are inside and have power. anything else pretty much sucks
indeed. we lost partial cable (digital channels quit working although the analog ones were still fine) but everything else kept working.
ok, why is pitter not in the dictionary? How will I get the stones out of my cherries?
FINISHED! VERY EXCELLENT! We love Snow Days!
guess you better stop using it since it doesn't exist
yay godt
we used to love our cottage,had a small free standing wood stove and a covered front porch to catch a breeze off the lake in the summer,but we kept the wood pile there in the winter storm would come up and kill the power for 5 or 6 days but we did not care.fire up the wood stove get out the kerosine lamps,put a home made soup on to cook and bring out the shiskey and the crokinole board;)) good times
sounds lovely, crossy!
only way to fly;)

Sorry, the fe6 word.

Just came back in. Wanted to get all the snow cleaned up before the rain got too much. I was too late. The snow blower did the work but it was still difficult. And it turns out, none of my coats repel water.
hope you are all warm and safe
Congrats Cyber!
molly, can you clue the je6 word better? cannot find a fruit that begins with je - I think that's what someone said it was
^5 dawger
oh, I guess you changed it to fe
whooooo hoooooo Nan!!
can anyone clue the je7 (sorry, not je6) word better?
no je 6 -- there is a je 7 (wharves) and a ji 6 (dance bug)
TNana, there is no je6, my mistake. There is a ji6. I was referring to the fe6 which is a Brazilian fruit and an unfair word, in my opinion.
just clued trentsnana
As always....I need help with the N on the right please?
And then there is the fact that ji6 is kosher, but pitter is not. Harumph.
ne 4/4 and plural
need more please...
Car, what fishermen use, but an extra consonant at the end.
Those came from the upper N
Oh bother, never mind. Not that n.

*puts toothpicks in to hold up eyelids*
Crud...aura coming into my right eye. Must go lie down and close my eyes for a bit. Hope to see you later.
good luck car
*quickly hands car a bunch of lavendar*
the start of a migraine?
happens to me sometimes
Hoping to fend it off...
damn my computer is not talking to the server.
i is getting tired of this
they have pills for that, car... do you have any?
Nope. Just coffee and Aleve
But I do have nasal spray for my sinuses and that helps too.
Bye all.
my ex was a neurologist.... maybe you should see one... they have good pills to abort a migraine if you catch it at the beginning
or just wait,in many women,migraines vanish as they age my wife was originally given caffergot..take if you think you may get a headache what a riot that is,then after many years pills that are 100 dollars each..did not last long! and finally something that does work and is cheap amatryptalie,but it leaves you a walking zombie for half the next day
amatryptaline*
does a number of things,it is mainly a anti-depressant and also a sleep/migraine aid
hello all - just got here and saw the conversation - I have used Relpax for years. Very minor side effects and the pain is gone within 20 min - half hour.
Just my 2 cents :)
that's the one ... relpax forgot the name
and the cost of relpax?
I used to get the ones with the auras but then, as Crossy said, those went away and I got a new kind where the tension builds up in your neck for a while before you get slammed. They have tappered WAY off and the Relpax is amazing when they do come.
VERY costly. But since I only need one or two pills a year it works out.
my wife get a migraine a week
so that is not for me
sometimes 2 a week..sometimes one that lasts 2 weeks...:(
Your poor wife! I worked with someone that had the same affliction. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
my daughter uses relpax - thank goodness she has insurance to help pay for it
and all the good meds are so cost prohibative!
i mean hell,are they made of fairy dust and unicorn blood?...
I'm baaaaack!
fireworks!
Can I have a hint for either 9?
use this for hard water
one who is most into your business
oooh, migraines are terrible!!
sorry, just looking through the chog now
I still don't have that 9.
which one?
I just gave you 2 clues
Both, actually. But i only worked on the "one who is most in your business"
use these for hard water.. hi wildcat
hi doren
mark - one is something that makes hard water so4/7
builds off an sn5
I think i have the five, but can't find the next 4.
the most like charlie brown's dog?
I typed that, but it didn't accept that.
cutest clue ever!
need another vowel in there
back
*grumble grumble*
I still can't get that 9!!!!!!
you know charlie brown's dog, right?
spyiest
Yes, I do know him!
Along with Woodstock.
well if you consider his name as an adjective... make it the most

I was having withdrawal
that was strange
hi all back from chopping and shovelling the rest of the snow and ice in back of the house!!! now to tackle the driveway. still have some snow and ice on it. waiting til it reaches 40 degress.
thought it was our weather that did it but obviously not
maybe Dr_God is having trouble with the weather where he lives
Hi Peri
are any of our babblers in Aus. affected (sp) by the cyclone. looks horrific on the video
I think I will go and take a nap, or at least try
((hugs)) to all of you
I just shovelled 8 inches off my porch and stairs - now sitting here with a heating pad
havent seen it peri - the poor aussies are getting hit hard this year
I shoveled about 2 feet off the porches and stairs; son used the snowblower on the driveway. Will be taking him out to eat soon as a reward :-)
peri, if I waited until it got to 40 degrees it would be some time in March, I think. Our low tonight is predicted to be -11 but could be much colder.
hasnt stopped snowing yet - expecting 2 feet over the course of the day - severe storm alert until 1 am - is only 1:12 pm now
I need a reward for all the work I have done the past week
yikes - at least it is supposed to stay in the 20's here
it is 37 degrees now
river, you must be east of us. Our blizzard warning is switching to a wind chill warning later tonight :-(
yes I am in New Hampshire
we are getting hit with what you just had
Ah, I have a niece and nephew (and grand-nephews) in NH, glad to hear it is not too cold. I am in Illinios.
where are they here
hopkinton and concord
Servers all over the internet are going down because of bad weather. That's probably what happened here. Nice they got it fixed so quickly.
weve had alot of ice these past few days we have lots of branches in our front yard from the ice beaking them off
I work in Concord and hopkinton is two towns over from where I live
breaking*
small world, river!

Every once in awhile, one just wants a hamburger. Do you want pickles, tomato, and lettuce? Can you get out or is the weather too bad?
1st pr ends in the te5/10. Second one sounds like the plural of something gollum would say.
I don't have es6 yet boo bear. Sorry to be so laggish on the chog.

an5.10 like the vege that makes you cry
Got 'em. thanks everybody.

i dont like you guys >:|
if you detect the on5 of trolls, DO NOT FEED THEM
cgw, I clued the pr8s at 3:22
Alright, thanks. :)
eo7 pls? xxx
no eo7 but there's an eo6, turn the eo4 into an adjective
fe6 please?
eo + consonant + one little particle
ok eo6 lol and wots an adjective?
holy cow, are you too young to have learned about adjectives? LOL
what gwen says except misspell the particle
no im too old to remember them lmao
oo4, you're right, not really a particle!
cos...... fe + first person pronoun + ***n Jett
ty diane and what a silly word! (adding to collection of silly words)
weird word. tgabjs!!
certainly is.... I haven't gone to see what it means !
i meant.. thanks lol
got it !! , cos :-)
and you can pluralize it! (not in the grid, just in general)
tgabjs
funny what can happen when you get off the proper keys
"evergreen shrub native to South America"
thanks, ms. book doctor :-)
"pronounced throat-warbler-mangrove" LOL
hey, i'm not a book doctor for nuthin . . .
did any of you have trouble with the site earlier?
can anyone clue the right-column N? i need it for nbt
All afternoon TNana.
Yes, the site went down at least twice. Server problems, apparently.
what a bird lays eggs in
I saw a bunch of red messages when I cam back to computer, so I just refreshed
okay - hoping it wasn't just me
You are not alone TNana. : D
ne4
running okay for me, but who knows whether the interwebs will be 100% during this blizzard-thing
Right-hand N has a double consonant in the 4, and then its plural
a few times my typing didn't show up in Add Word....
I am blind, FISH ME! (and nbt woot)
no, the right-hand N is not the one with double consonant, it's the one you use to house your birdies
Oops! Sorry - I get distracted by multiple letters :-(
for example, that game with the crops and stuff (which shall not be named) has been iffy all day
gwen, t hat game on facebook you mean?
yeah, that facebook game, with the agricultural theme . . .
its been working fine for me all day
i finally got my duck pond built lol
hooray, cos! but we should not chat about that in here, very rude, IMO
:-P very well
Oh please, someone put me away somewhere. I'm sitting here thinking "How cool. Cos built a duck pond." Then I see the Facebook reference.

Hi mom!
((Car.)) how are you?
may I ask how the little guy is doing?
Hanging in. Tough week.
oh Car. I am so sorry to hear that
Did get out of him that someone is really bothering him in school. Will be meeting with his teacher and guidance counselor Friday, hopefully.
the poor guy, I hope the weather cooperates and you can have the meeting
Getting the schedules to jibe is the bigger problem!
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you all
Thanks! Time for dinner! BBL!
bye bye ((Car.))
bye car... *sniff*
hey all!
Hi Stid
babble is a little wonky today
hey Mom
a lot of things are a little wonky today I think
how are things with you?
I think so too
not horrible today. I think the virus from last week is actually gone, and although I have done virtually NO school-related work today I think I have most of the ideas I need. We'll see.
how about you?
I am so glad you are feeling better.
I will spend this evening doing the "fun" part of thinking about science instruction. :-D
things here are pretty good. Can't wait until Spring
Tomorrow I will dive in to doing intensive writing and reading.
there you go, that's a plan
spring sounds good... unfortunately it has been so unseasonably warm, dry and sunny that everything here thinks it IS spring. and it could still turn very cold again.
Hey, stid, what kind of science do you teach?
NEXT fall, I am determined to plant more bulbs to replace the ones eaten last year... LOL
Stop eating those bulbs.
well, I am in the process of becoming a teacher, and one component of the program this quarter (in my spare time while also writing the master's paper) is to ...
brb phone
darn kid! I told him THREE TIMES to ride the bus to our house. He went to his grandparents' instead. So now Tom will have to pick him up, too.
*sigh*
Ah. I teach physics at a university, so I never really learned to teach (except by doing). But I've been doing for 29 years now (egads) so I've picked up a trick or two.
anyway. I am writing a short unit on measurement, with a focus on force and motion for 4th/5th grade. Partly as an exercise, partly because I will be teaching in one of those grades in the spring.
Writing exams right now - not one of my favorite parts.
LOL experience is a great "teacher" too!
I LOVE physics....
me too :-)
I also really really love chemistry (it was easy for me), but my heart is in the garden.
Writing assessments is not fun -- summative tests are so high-stakes.
Your heart is in the garden? And you are eating bulbs?????
maybe the bulbs are onions?
"you are what you eat" n'est ce-pas?
I think I will go, keep losing internet connection. ((hugs) to all of you and extra hugs to ((Stid))
garlic bulbs, actually -- the garlic in the garden is looking SO healthy!
((((Mom)))) I miss seeing you. Stay warm!
Don't eat your heart out though.
is there an F6?
((Stid)) you as well. See you soon
Ah. My garden looks like snow at the moment.
yes, a very weird fe6.
yes Wildcat ... fe + me myself and * + ***n of Arc
promise to not do that kaplan!
hm. looks portuguese to me... thanks!
ty how is anyone expected to know that??
maybe if you live in Brazil; apparently it's a fruit one can get there
this morning babblers were saying it is a Brazilian fruit
Wow.
bye for now
a foreign word?? in our grid??
firewords
intriguing... Acca sellowiana -- a magnolia relative, gritty like a guava...
YAY wild!!!!
sounds yummy and ty
"has been cultivated as far north as western Scotland" (per wikipedia)
bye for now
later wild
I am down to 40, the show I was enjoying is done, I have one last errand to run (was hoping the kid would help me run it -- oh well) so back later! *Poof*
I have 22 left but am bailing soon.
In fact, good night!
hello hello hello
o dear I owe some penalty box time from a clue i gave earlier today!
*tip toes out of the chop hoping no one will notice the owed pb time*
I notice, but I'm in a forgiving mood
night jmc... happy babbling!
i found the so9, what is the other 9 please?
hi everyone! Cabin fever is so bad i forgot to babble.
Reality check, Luwan! How can you forget Babble???
stuck at home with husband and father. both hard of hearing. blaring tv, and loud conversation...
s9, monkey
Temporary insanity
oops - sn9 - sticky n
most like charlie's pal
cabin fever? :o(
HEY ALL!!! *shouting of Luwanda's blaring TV*
(hi all! :o) )
hi
Dad drove 100 miles to exchange some space heaters knowing that there was a winter storm warning. He wouldn't listen. He keeps saying he can drive home. It will just take him longer. There's only 2 inches of ice on the roads. 3 days of telling him "NO" Argh!
did someone clue sn 9?
oh no! is he okay/
most like a peanuts character TO
ty
evening all!
oops
ty, stidmama ---- my favorite character, too
He's mad at me because I won't let him go. I finally show him that the surrounding counties are under alert and that he will be fined $100 if he gets stuck.
hey dan! how's our lovely girl today?
hi peeps!
Good for you Luwanda! d*** old codger!
he wants to be useful, methinks
hey monkey! why are you in... um... where are you today?
hi all! jah mon, lil monkey!
oh I'm in Jamaica
oh. jamaica. Why jamaica? not enough rum in yorktown?
I was snorkeling with Mark Jones yesterday
I have actually caught him going out the door 3 or 4 times to check if the the ice was melting. I yelled at him and told him he was putting us in danger if he fell and we had to take him to the hospital and he would throw a fit if the kids wanted to drive in this mess.
can you hide his shoes and blame it on the dogs??
i have to go. later, all
or *wracks brain for ideas*
You're right stid. Cats?
If that was my dad pulling that crap, I would slam the door and lock it when he went out to "check the ice." That would be the last time he would pull crap like that.
later TO (((hugs))) be warm!
byeeeeeeeeeee TO
can cats catch codger's clogs?
maybe just hide his car keys.
I gave he Lonesome Dove to read. That occupied him for a while. He's and old farmer who has taken care of everyone else for years. Stubborn to the hilt.
Give him a jigsaw puzzle
ah. one of "them". *considers*
do you have important but nagging tasks inside that he could help with? things you have been putting off but now that he's here to help it would go easier?
I think I'll have Gary put him to work in the garage tomorrow sorting wood or nuts and bolts
Hi, all! Anybody need any clues?
hey again sue!
Maybe tell him you need an inventory of every nut and bolt in the garage
guess what? in our farm box today we got REAL vanilla beans and cocoa nibs from HAWAII!!! (our farm truck people went on vacation and the farm they toured sent them samples!!!)
right now he's watching wheel of fortune. Pat and Vanna are shouting at me now!
Yum!
I always use vanilla bean when I cook. I love the smell.
oh! what's Vanna wearing today? It's not on for three hours here... yesterday her gown was the same color as the tiles!
Pat and Vanna are usually nicer than that
I love vanilla beans. Like to put on in the sugar bin.
very cool stiddie
I make my own vanilla extract from them.
hey again jmc
there's an idea luwanda!
hey monkey! bring me back some RUM from jamaica, and I will make up some vanilla extract!
stidmama - baby2bit trying blueberries for the first time
Word up, stiddles
are they all over her face, dan2?
no, mrs2bit is a ninja baby feeder
WTG melanie!
hm.... does she like the blueberries? they might seem "sour" to her
help with an 5/10 pls
"word up?"
moms are good at things like that

haha, stid... i was trying to use a rasta expression b/c I'm in Jamaica

oh! okay... still confused though! LOL
uh that is not a rasta expression as far as I know lil
currently representing a rasta
mmmm. blueberries and pears. *drool*
thanks all
oh OK, I didn't know... the only person I know from Jamaica says "word" or "word up" all the time
University is closed again tomorrow. This is starting to get old.
like if you say, oh we're almost out of ultrasound gel, she goes "word"
School is closed tomorrow for me.
well these language things travel fast lil
school we have. It is possible that our boys will be out of school this year before the extreme end of June... for a change.
word mon I have heard but word up is more a teenager/collegy thing
Dan, how is Baby 2Bit? Sleeping better these nights?
Last year I think they were in school until June 25 or so.
hey uusue, what physics topics do you teach?
should I use "word up" then? to be with the "in" crowd at school... would this make me popular? LOL
eo 6 pls
This is the 1st time in 25 years that we have had 3 days off in a row
okay i need encouragement to send the 900+ word snarky email i spent all afternoon writing
Hi, dfm, right now I am teaching the first semester of calculus physics (kinematics, dynamics) plus a one-semester conceptual physics course. Over the years I have taught pretty much the whole undergraduate curriculum. My research was in experimental high energy physics.
dunno stiddie different in crowds at different schools
Send it, Send it, Send it!!!
they probably will think you a poser
thanks for that red: "long time" eo* + man's name *** fleming wrote james bond
it has 6 attachments
how snarky, jmc...
who is that snarky email addressed to, jmc???? *checks in-box nervously*
Oh please. "Word up" goes back to the '90's. It's hardly a "new phrase".

it is keeping me quite busy -- I'm taking two courses more than the five that most people are taking... so much homework to do though :o(
GE of course your brain isn't itty bitty! :o(
I had to write an essay last weekend. I have such fond memories of undergrad and grad school. Having to write an essay reminded me of what I didn't like.
one nice thing about physics, no essays :-)
well perhaps when comparing the amount we actually use :D
hi everyone
That must be why I love math and science. That an the fact that my mom got a degree in Chemistry and Math in the 1940's
Good for your mom, luwanda! Not many women studied math and science back then.

That is ok I know that a few babblers here are Jewish so I was hopping
I do not, herin...sorry.

you can hop for it too herin ;o)
Thanks for making me smile. I have a LJ friend on that is waiting for a lung transplant. Sadly she will likely die within two weeks if she doesn't get one
:oC
oh Herin, I am so sorry
I hope she gets one soon... is the organ donation system as bad as here in North America?
It was on the cards as she has CF. Yes DF
Herin: http://www.myjewishlearning.com /texts/Liturgy_and_Prayers/Siddur_Pray er_Book/Torah_Service/Prayer_for_the_S ick.shtml
it is in english and hebrew
sorry for the long link
Sorry to hear that, (((herin)))
Thanks
I had better scoot off here, my sweetie will be coming home soon and will be hungry

Good night and blessings to you all ((Hugs))
I have also had 4 hours sleep. Babysat and had a bitch sesh at a friends house so yes way too tired
bye {{Mom}}!
Mom point him in the dirrection of the kitchen and declare that you are too busy
ooohhh, love bi*** sessions
what sessions? o.0
good night ((DFM)) good to see you again
On Herin, I stay home all day the least I can do if reheat him some supper :-)
LOL Mom go ding something
bitch sessions, dfm.
that is what he is getting .... leftovers from last night
It was a great night which would have been lovely if the 1 year old hadn't woken at 4amish with a belly ache
don't get it :o/
now, going to go and ding something (love it)
of course you don't dfm, you aren't a girl
>.>
something now tells me that Googling for that term will be a bad idea.
you have to have at least 2 girls. they sit around and complain or talk about things that gripe you (sometimes people that gripe you)
we ladies like to get together and complain / vent about our lives and then we are able to go back and live our lives with a smile on our faces
Yep. There was 4 of us and it was a great night. We did facials and foot spas
ah I see
guys do the same thing only it is usually during a ball game of some sort and beer is usually involved
:-)
eww, beer and eww, ball game ;o)
dfm, you are too young for such trials
does sitting in the math department playing board games for 24 hours straight while complaining about courses and homework count? :o3
sure it does
Yes
Or Beer and Poker or Role playing and food
see you all tomorrow
bye Mom!
Bye Mom
DF I am asuming you are Male and a Math Teacher/
I'm a math/CS student...
(I guess that's close enough)
Do you do PC LAN Parties?
the CS club does... :oD I usually go only to the coding on4.
Thus a tec version of a bitch ses

Going to watch Law and Order and take a break here. Stay warm and safe all . Goodnight : )
We got mostly freezing rain and ice. No school today.
Goodbye MaMaWa! I will see you tomorrow in the log.
Exactly the same Min! Last 2 days no school so I had a mid week break! *poof
Since nobody is asking for clues,then I am leaving too
Goodnight to my fellow babblers! I'll see you tomorrow

Unloads the dishwasher...

A good night to you, cwestexan!
Hello J.C. The pantomime's just finished, so I guess you're having a well earned rest now. It must have been nice to work with Joan C but shame about Orville! (I always hated that puppet!) My deputy at work used to do an imitation of him and it made me 'wanna kill her'! LOL
4 left; clue for the pr8 that's not plural of good looking, please?
nevermind
as soon as i asked, my brain connected the dogs
dots
jess - have you just 'done a Peri'?
Nope, dots itn't in today's grid. LOL
no d's, i'm safe!
Oh, dogs
well, lets see if this works again. fe6 please?
I must go to the PB for typing a grid word in my greeting to J.C.
fe6/42 is a myrtle shrub. However, unless you're a gardener, I'm going to have to think about hw best to clue it.
no, botany is very much not my thing. unless it's a common toxic plant...
fe + personal pronoun + first 3 letters of comedian Ms. Rivers' first name.
wow, i was ages away from ever monkeying THAT!
You got it?
i did, thanks :)
I'm impressed. LOL
why? wasn't a bad or overly obscure clue :)
No, I suppose not.
and fireworks :) last word was sp6 that you don't eat with
thanks for cluing :)
Well done, jes.
y/w, Jes.
i'm impressed that people know that word without clues, jac!
Once seen, never forgotten, I guess, Jes.
heh. we'll see. i somehow doubt i'll remember it if it shows up again, unless it's tomorrow
hi. i have so 9. what is other 9 please?
Looks like there's no one here now.
Oh, hi mkg. The other 9 is sn9 - the most nosey.
the other 9 is... lost in my list, sorry
yeah, what jac said
ty got it.
Think of the neighbour who moves the lace curtains over the most to check up on what you are doing. She is more sn9 the the other one.
well 8s and 9s done. but need 38 still. ugh
or think of a dog by fisher price, a toy, named sn***y and then the most.
mkg - it's been a cartoon strip for years, too.
my cousins dog was named sn***er and i loved him so so much
mkg - do you really have 11 children of your own??
i have 6 and 5 are married so the spouses are now my kids too. so that makes 11. the baby isnt married yet, he is 21. in college. i do have 15 grandkids already though.
Ah! I see!
and i love them all very much. that is what is best.
I have 2 of my own + a stepdaughter, none are married yet, and no have children. Youngest (step) is just 16, then there's my daughter , who will be 24 in March, and son, who will be 27 in May.
How did they all get so 'old'??
Obviously, I've known my own two since birth, but 'step' was only 8 when I met her.
Any more grid clues needed?
If not, I will head off for now.
sp6, the last one, not the utensil is eluding me...any clues? thanks in advance
sp + what you pay your landlord, Shadow.
merci
y/w.
so logical...but escaped me
It means 'sprinkled', if you wanted to know.
I can smell toast! No one is up but me, so it can't be in our house. I have a window open, so I must be smelling it from outside.
op6/21 plz
Okay, off now. See you all next grid.
firewks. boy working with more words has really made the grid go fast.
nevermind
tij - op6/21 is a choice., op7 is plural.
Bye all.xx
AN 5?
an5 is an+ the singular of io4,4
thx faux
You're welcome. :)
OF 8?
The highest level of OF 7
got it!
first TE 5/10?
Tight or strained.
i have that one
Oh you need the other?
Plural of te4,4
i monkeyed it
fireworxxxx!
Congrats!
it comes before that. there are 3 of them
I'm still very new to this cluing business. :P
It's an art.
Whoa I forgot to hit the add button on my last word. :P
Fireworks!
Hi Faux. Just read your bio. You sound like me and my 3 kids. I'm sure we'll all grow up but doubt we'll all ever fit in.
BTW - I'm the Queen of Non-PC on here, since I say what I think.
It's not a crown I've awarded myself, but was given to me by another Babbler who is a friend. Saying what you think does not always equal 'having a go' at someone. But most Babblers know that, I think, as does the friend who crowned me.
