hello ursh, yes, he was indeed a lovely young man
down to 12 but eyes crossing, better get to bed
good night all
night flosey - day just starting here - have pile of invoices to type - better get on
is stid still here?
Saw in the chog that her migraines are being wicked. And taking Maxalt isn't doing the trick. Stid - add an Aleve to your Maxalt..
There was a new drug out recently called Treximent, which was effectively Imitrex plus whatever Aleve is made of.. and it's PRICEY. So pharmacist told me to just add an Aleve to my migraine meds - I take mostly Imitrex and Relpax. It really does seem to help!!
Feel better.. I know how bad it can be. :(
morning all
hi everyone
hi crystalle
tight one today!
How many words today please
67 only, gran
Thanks
back to say hello to those who just arrived, but with 20 left I'm just too tired to go on. Bridge group here tomorrow -- then a concert. I hope to find a few minutes to relax and finish!
sleep well and hagd, jilli
Ty sprite
goodnight jill
goodnight all and *poof
hello
hi ruby
sprite, are you still there?
hi crystalle
hi rubyfoo. Another day...how did it go with your husband?
I am "busting him out" this morning. I've arranged it with an ambulance, his local doctor, the visiting nurse, my housekeeper, and even told the dogs
his daughter and my son agree.
the hospital doesn't like it, but I think if he stays longer, he will only get worse!
lollll, very good! Oh he will love being home again... once again the master of his castle. Keep taking care of yourself though. It is easy to forget, but in the end you will be doing both of you a favour if you do.
it is a big responsibility but I think I know him the best
I think you do too.
what time are you expecting him?
I'm leaving here in a little while, ambulance will meet me at hospital at 11AM. Housekeeper is here building fires, changing sheets, etc.
it is very scary, but I think for the best
well having him in hospital was scary to you as well, so perhaps focus on your inner conviction and stay alert for any sign he needs to go back there. I am positive you will know right away if that might be the case. Until then... don't worry too much, just take care of him AND yourself.
I concur with spritey! and good morning ladies.
a very good morning, FM :)
hello FM. My housekeeper is horrified that I would disagree with the authorities!
am still smiling at you telling the dogs. I bet they understand.
hello FM. My housekeeper is horrified that I would disagree with the authorities!
pfft! just make sure you have a good support network around you for hubby ruby, and don't forget yourself either!
Morning spritey sprite, here's to a more peacful babble day today.
Hello Ruby. Glad to hear that one worry will be relieved. Do make sure you organise the day so that you get short rests now and then: five minutes total relax is worth hours of bed-time. lol
most people would be. Though I take most authorities very seriously, I still think we need to listen to our inner knowledge too. You did, so stop doubting yourself and 'just' take your stand, see it through. You KNOW you are doing the right thing.
morning everyone :-)
here's to that, FM! *hugs*
morning scouser, morning Katie
Hi scouser and Hi Katie - where have you been?
Hi FMitch and all Babblers-about.
Hi, I know I've been rubbish on here. Work and the gym seem to take up my whole life at the moment and don't usually get the chance to babble in the morning as I am trying to leave the house at 7am for work these days. How you doing?
Anyone want any clues ? I have had to put asterisks in one word as I am old-fashioned.
I fully agree, scouser :) And if all else fails, go to the toilet, lock the door and take those 5 minutes there. We have a saying in Dutch (in Dutch it rhymes) that goes: "If you don't poo, you still rest, and if they call you, you are still pooing."
LOL sprite!
lol sprite
wtg scouser, gratz on finishing. No, not for me, thanks. Did babble take the asterisks? ;)
I hate that word if your talking about the c one
well it is good to see you Katie. Am fine and spring is lurking round the corner according to the bulbs sprouting away in the garden.
like the f word it is crass
I'm always quite shocked it takes it
No I had to type the word in and there it is in the list for as long as Babble keeps archives.
cu and tw... bad bad grid today.
Thanks, sprite, I hadn't noticed that word unttil you pointed it out.
Hey JAcs and crystalle
hadnt noticed tw word ty
hi Jac *hugs!* and you're very welcome :)
hi FM
The fu4 word in here always caused giggles at school when the biology teacher got onto the subject of algae. I was a school science lab tech and we had jars and jars of fu4 on the shelves
lol scouser. Calls to mind the day our biology teacher hung up the poster of the male reproductive organ and a friend of mine sang: "Strange... I've seen that face before..."
LOL!
I have decided that Enable has used Robbie Burns only for its Scots words, because it won't let me have "intae" which is normal pronunciation.
So, how does a woman who's had no sleep and is still p*ssed off a gettigng a screwed up daughter, not her own, to deal with, when that wasn't the deal in the first place.
How does thst woman deal with that?
oh dear jac that doesn't sound good
she goes to babble chog and vents, Jac. Please tell.
sprite - you already know,
Shove over, there's another mature woman coming through.
I once came upon the straight-laced bio teacher shrieking with laughter with the torso-model-with-removable-parts before her, holding the male portions and saying "I can't fit these in anywhere" cos the model would not allow both male and female at same time.... one bit had to stay in the box.
I never liked herm, I never wanted herm.
morning Jac *makes room for maturity*
Morning Haz :)
Haz - you're going to tell me t o bugger off and get some sleep now, are you not?
morning Haz
Good morning!
Now, Jacula, as if I'd ever say anything like that to you...
lol scouser
I think you have, Haz, Thank you.xxx
I'd be much more polite. 'Jacula, dear friend, would it not be appropriate to seek restorative slumber?'
*snort*
much more polite
and, of course, Haz would be holding that rubber hammer behind her back at the same time...
You're old enough to decide when to go to bed. And anyway, it's nice to see you in the flesh -you know what I mean!
of course
and I will administer the lovely blue and pink striped pills.
It's actually kind of comforting to see other 'mature' faces around here.
Jacula - what is herm?
(they work a treat on Haz when she gets stressed)
I'm glad you asked scouser I have no idea either
I'll confirm that. They've got me through many an episode.
I had signed out but signed back in to tell fmitch not to snort (it's not ladylike) and the others... well floaty pink things afore I sleep.
Katie - love the picture in your icon.
OK so long as you are not wittering about pillars with male-parts sticking out it is OK
sorry Jacs :)
*hugs Jac* And you can have a hissy fit whenever you like and I'll be there to listen!
We've tried to cure FM of the snorts but well, it's not been easy.
Why have you tried - it is better than shrieking in capitals
maybe FM is afraid to LOL in your presence, Haz
It's not my fault (for once) I can't help it when babblers make me do it - honest.
There must be varying levels of snort though?
(pay attention, FM, I am blaming somebody else!)
oh yes. The dry snort, the moisty one, the really wet one... I will not continue.
No I meant derisive or amused or part-chuckle
(I'm hoping devoutly that scouser doesn't ever do an FM type typo and forget the r in snort. It would put a whole different complexion on things)
spritey Haz and I have LOL'd a great deal in real life together. But I do feel intimidated sometimes if my grammar or punctuation is not up to scratch.
it was meant as a joke - did I offend without meaning to?
of course not you silly!
*smug* my grammar intimidates.
morning all
Should we let FM put an adjective to show what sort of sn***?
oh good! I prefer to mean to, when I offend :)
morning Ishult
Morning Ishult
We need a font for 'this is a withering pudown and I hope you realise it'.
Haz re yr post at 2.23 do you wish me to recount your classic moment that ended up with you under the desk in embarrasment?
Good morning, Ishult.
I do, FM!
Hi there Ishult
Go for it, FM. I'll head under the desk.
just found all the 7's...any clues for 8 & 9???plz
that would come in handy, Haz.
Oh Haz - I am known here for my witherings - I have varying grades of those too.
only have 2 7s so far and nothing bigger, sorry Ishult.
No I will save you the blushing - am in a benevolent mood this morning.
un8 ru9
cruel, I'd call that, FM. Got us all raising to the bait and then you withhold it!
Profound relief! I'm already red at the memory.
I think it is pretty well organized.
The 9 is a wonderful word to do with leaf shapes. If you know your children's poetry the beginning of the word is in "which they ate with a ru***ble spoon".
Lets justsay that dear Haz made a brilliant spelling mistake not once but twice. I couldn't talk for laughing for about 5 mins.
that was a neighbor with fresh bread, soup and a jelly donut for me.
Off to the hospital now. Wish me luck!!
Good luck and bon voyage ruby (())
the 9 word is a thoughtful word with nci instead of m. Cows also do the thoughtful word when chewing the cud.
Good luck rubyfoo.
phew back, ironed hubby's shirt and made marmite on toast for him, I'm such a good wife lol
luck ruby
The 8 word is the 9 word without the first letter.
Hello
hi lady *hug*
*poof*
Hello, herin.
will think of you both, rubyfoo
The 9 word start comes in "The Owl and the Pussycat"
Hugs and hi.
got the 8 & 9 .........thanks for all the clues
Hey herin, glad to see you as I wanted to wish you all the best for the 14th - good luck with the first day of the new job!
still 20 words to find tho......
Hello herin. Yes, good luck with new job.
O thank you FM. I am a lot excited
I have no idea what the UN 8/9 is
Thanks
Ishult there is a un4/6 related to the 8 and 9
BRB time for more tea.
herin - just look back a little in the chatterbox - I have given some clues for the 8 and 9.
those were brilliant clues to words I didn't know. Thanks.
Thanks
herin 8 and 9 start with dif letters un 8 ra 9
didn't have that ,ty scouser....17 left..
the moon, the moon, they danced by the light of the moon. I love the poem :D
Ra 9/
ru9, though.
ru9
O thanks
oops sorry i wrote ra 9
Have to go and see to housework (aaargh) and cup of tea (aaaaah). Bye all
15 left.....need to take a short break (& do some work)
I can see the hampsters in my head don't want to work
bye FM, scouser and Ishult
Bye, Ishult.
herin - try gerbils instead
both biggies end in 'had for dinner', lady
Ok so how is it my fault that hubby overslept when i didn't know what time his doctors appointment was and he did?
TRhanks
Learn something new every day
Katie - cos you were just standing there to be spoken to
Because you should have checked his diary, Katie. They must have missed out that chapter in your Good Wife book.
it is never your fault when your hubby oversleeps. He is a grownup and can set his own alarm.
Yes but no one needs the hassle of an overslept partner
There's the Check His Diary section and later you'll come to 'How to read minds'.
I used to call my husband out of bed. He came out, went to the bathroom, went back to bed. Expected me to call again. I didn't. He was late. Worked miracles.
See If I had been at work then it wouldn't have been my fault - obviously it's the being at home bit that has caused it.
Because women are better date remembers
you are so right Haz, one step forward and one back as they say
What Good Wife book? I suppose that is why I am no longer married (did 21 years of it though and 16 years since)
Having said that my friend was a month early for her partners job.
oh dear, that must be the English version, Haz. The Dutch one doesn't have that section. I am almost sure.
Ciao
The How to Read Minds section is quite advanced, I'll grant you. And you find that sometimes you're better at it than others. Practice makes perfect.
it's just below the "you will make all phone calls to family (his and yours)" section and before the "how to shut cupboard doors for the rest of your life"
bye scouser, hagd
bye scouser
Bye Scouser.
that cupboard door section sounds familiar...
Only with the chapter of does the toilet seat goes up or down argument
in fairness hubby is multi talented and includes all draws and even the microwave in his skoll set
ahhhh herin I have the answer to that, buy a house with a house with a toilet that doesn't allow the seat to remain up, I have had a very happy 4 years.
oh that is smart! :D
no so good for the male visitors in fairness
Katie smart idea. Or have a cat that plays with water and then the seat has to stay down
fireworks and just in time for me to cook dinner. Goodnight all.
night Crystal
wtg crystalle and enjoy dinner.
congrats crystalle
Congratulations, crystalle.
another chaper would be "Why do you need such a big handbag"? Answer: to carry all your bits and pieces = car keys, mobile, wallet etc etc
Congrats and nighty night crystalle.
I am starting to feel I am a lousy wife.
along with "I know you have already looked there but let's check again anyway"
I'd say you were a good one as you haven't added any bitchy chapters lol
It's just that you haven't had access to the English Version of the Good Wife Guide. You've been working at a disadvantage.
ours reads: "Honey I searched everywhere. Can you please find it for me now?"
Hello everyone
HI Lynxx
To which you get 'Where was the last place you saw it?'
Hello, lynxxx.
that is true, Haz. I should get me a copy some day and study.
I trust it has a subsection of "but I looked there"
hi lyn :) xxx
and bingo there it is (wherever he left it in the first place. The knack is to feel smug but dont show it. Evening lynxxx!
Hi lynxxx
I am too old to play that game anymore - I refuse to get involved in it all
And don't forget the yes you are right but gawd forbid I actually agree
for the advanced level (which hubby has reached) the subsection is "I looked there 3 times"
I'm bad at putting things down and not remembering where I put them. My schoolteacher daughter was cross with me yesterday when I couldn't find her ruler which I'd borrowed. I was so glad when I found it - husband and I giggled that I'd just escaped being given lines.
lol herin
lol Haz
My tiler friend has a sticker that says 'Men are like tiles. Lay them right the first time and you can walk over them for life
We can give you lines if you like Haz?
rofl Infernal
my love and I have the simple dutch concept of each having their own responsibility for life, and if you want help, you ask for it. No mindreading expected. Too simple, right?
*almost snots tea* apologies all.
lol lady, that is SO bad :)
we laugh about it - I find things for him, he corrects the holiday bookings for me
The tiler is male which is the funnier thing
I do hope you meant snort there FM
oh dear oh dear
I am afraid snot was accurate...
The perils of snorting...
*hides behind the armchair in the PB - generating enough heat from blusing to warm a 3rd world counrty*
Poor FM.
and don't think I can't hear you all laughing at me!
Ok I am going to go wash up and get ready for CSI
Morning all. Howmany words today please
Thank you for the smiles, I now need to go and do some work. I have tomorrow so hopefully will catch up with you all then
FM, I for one could really use that laugh :)
have a good day, Katie
67 words, sandra.
hi Sandra only 67
hi sandra, 67 only
Bye Katie have a good one.
bye Katie
Thanks the same as the other day!!!!!
I am finding this one a bit tight. But doable.
FM, you should get a special recognition certificate for taking the blame AND making us laugh.
finally looked up the def for in5.12, it does mean what I think - how morbib
I knew I had a purpose in life but didn't know it until I found Babble *grin*
Little did you know what you were doing when you logged into babble for the first time.
not doing it would get messy though, lyn
I can blame my Mum for that - t'was she who sent me the snippet out of the paper with the url.
true
No, you can thank your mother for that. She opened your eyes to the world of the tenrec.
LOL and you and Ata and all my other babble buddies :)
Hi all.
Hello, Marmar.
hi Marmar
hey Marmar, haven't seen you in ages. Hope you are well.
This is a vulgar little grid...don't know if I'll even devote my babble 30 minutes to it!
Hi Marmar
Thank you sprite, yes, alls well here. I keep up with all you chatters while I lurk
Hi FMItch!
good to see you Marmar
I stick to my babble time limit though so usually no time for chatting unfortunately.
am glad you are well :)
Has anyone tried the lumosity.com brain training site?
fun fast little brain-training games.
hurshy did, I believe
If we train our brains any more we'll be frightening.
True for you Haz and many of you all. I need all the help I can get!
that'd be one step down from intimidating, Haz. Better not!
Oh must be off for a few mins - hadn't realised the time. Back soon.
Oh listen, there are whole sections of my brain that lie dormant. Anything maths/science has the tumbleweed blowing through it.
bye for now FM
lol Haz, love the image
and don't forget needlework!!
Bye FM
I've been trying to forget needlework all my life.
Bye for now, FM.
uhg, cannot stand this grid and am wimping out. Love to alll you dear babblers!!!Bye
Toodle-oo, Marmar. Have a good day.
bye Marmar, hagd
greying out tiles seems to be tough today. Am missing one word each from 5 tiles!
Will anybody notice if we give the grid a quick shake?
I think we are all alone. Go right ahead, Haz.
Okay, hold on to your hats.
Any better?
whoaaaa! Good one!
It worked for you?
it shook out one more word.
It helped me grey another letter. We should do this more often.
it is a very good idea
You have to be careful, a gentle shake only.
Shake too hard and the letters fall off. Catastrophe.
I'd never be able to show my face in babble again if that happened.
it seems it takes a crafty touch. Perhaps you should be the one to do it.
There may be others who have the knack but we've been told not to talk too much about our powers. Others might get jealous or even try to imitate.
fireflies :D A very good shake that was. Thanks Haz and have a lovely day. Oh... jealous is one thing, yes. But imitate... perish the thought!
Well done, sprite! To think I helped you to finish.... Have a very good day.
belated congrats Sprite - sorry I nodded off. Goodnight Haz
Good night, lynxx, sleep well. I'd better be off myself as well.
hello all
is there anyone here
Hi cos
good morning everyone:) break at work time to babble lol
ooh, little grid today. let's see if I can get it done sitting in my lecture!
Right back to working mode hope to call in a little later, Happy babbling everyone:)
Hello all
b
clue for the 8 or 9 please
is there anybody here says the traveller, knocking at the moonlit door.....
ok I can break in and steal all the goodies......
ru9 is a word I have never heard of but has one of Dr God's favoured endings.
does it have a def?
It does - (of a leaf) pinnately incised
goooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx
hi frog, think we are the only ones here
morning, all!
hi uusue2
I'm here in and out
tiny grid!
Hi, EdJ! It's -9 here according to the weatherbug; not looking forward to going outside!

LOL!
anybody got a hint for an f or a z? One of each and I'll be nbt...
I have a ze 4/9
6th letter of the greek alphabet ze4/9
and an fu 4/9
thx for the z, trif and city - still working on the f :-)
gads, I need to get ready for work RIGHT NOW but babbling is where I would rather be.....if only we could get paid to babble!
got it - nbt!
uusue, it looks like the plural of a fo4 that means more than one central point, if that helps
I'm with you, trif!
sorry - the plural is a fo4, the singular would be fo5
that's ok, trif, I got it. Some sort of seaweed, apparently.
Can anyone help me with the beginning of the 8?
initiate
grah, sorry... not even a word.
well, it's a word, just not in the grid :-)
dunno about the 8 but I've heard the 9 starts with ru; haven't found either yet
lol, uusue... I have the 9, but if there's a way to retrofit an 8 to it, I have yet to see it.
just found the 8......un/50
ty kalea! uusue, the 9 is a type/shape of leaf
yes, i saw that in the chog and googled it, thx
ru9/66 - to move fast + first three letters of a movie theatre + consumed food. un 8/50: drop the R from the 9.

mornin' dweller
Good morning friends!
morning eeyore!
good morning eeyore xxx
Rude grid! Off to coffee.
g'morning.
omg i cant wait until someone asks for a clue for the cu 4 lmao
this grid is rude *and* difficult. It's like me in my teenage phase.
and the tw 4
ok, quick exercises, back briefly :-)
simply refer them to a Guy Ritchie movie I guess... :)
tee hee, city! me too (and every other teenager on the planet, I bet)
yes, or an eminem song
outside temp now down to -10F. Sigh.
a balmy 1º here uusue2...
ooooo we're so lucky its about 8 degrees here in north uk
At least it isn't windy...
true...Tuesday night the wind was blowing the snow so hard against the window, kept thinking it was a break in!
Tricky little bugger of a grid today!
Just found the ni6 insult; is anyone else beginning to feel picked on?
Oh City! You can't take the grid's nastiness personally! And you are most definitely not a ni6!
aww, ty eeyore :) It's just rather near the bone when you spend ten minutes looking for one word, and it's basically 'idiot'.
:)
Yeah...but I didn't have it until you commented on it, so what does that say about me?!?!?
*grins* that you just got here, probably.
thanks for the ni6
anyone know what the 8 and 9 start with?
yw - ru9 and un8 (it's the 9 without the first letter)
Not me!
ugh... ok... thanks.
Does the RU 9 build off the ru 7 by any chance?
happy to clue, if you want. I needed help with both. No, eeyore, this grid isn't that helpful.
I'll take a clue...
they do end the same way, though.
ru9/66 - to move fast + first three letters of a movie theatre + consumed food. un 8/50: drop the R from the 9.
TY! Got 'em!
howdy folks.. ty for the great clues!
thanks City - and good morning everyone
clue for un6/24
Hi Aloy! Hi River!
{fingers poised waiting for UN clue...}
good morning river. Matches, I'm chasing that one myself right now.
hi car.ee (-:
ty... got them. Never would have without the clues... thanks!
sorry... don't have the un6/24 yet.
morning river!
me either, will look tho
un6/24 - start with the un4/6 and add the first two letters of a louse egg.
louse egg?
ew!
Or the first two letters of the Christmas saint, for the squeamish.
ty haz got it and fireworks
Good morning, everyone
congrats Matches
Well done, Matches!
ty Haz, that one was making me scratch my head (sorry, inevitable louse egg joke)
Hooray Matches!
mornin' mom
{{MOM}}
I know, sorry!
congrats matches
thanks Haz
congrats to Matches!!
morning Angela
You're welcome.
((Car.)) how was the meeting? (If I may ask)
Morning ((Mom))
((River)) good morning
ah, ty Haz.. just saw your great clue, got it
Hello, Aloy - glad it worked.
if anyone here was listening to my drama last night, things between my dad and stepmom seem to have improved at least a little.
It went very well. The teacher and guidance say that my little man is awesome....he is just really overwhelmed by the social aspect of 2nd grade. We worked on what words to use and giving him the power to decide if he will let someone else ruin his day. Still having adjustment issues with getting him up and out in the morning, but they had some good ideas and we are trying those.
.. scratching head, lol !
uusue...don't know what the drama is...but i am wishing your family peace.
She still wants to go into assisted living in MI, but maybe she'll wait until he gets out of rehab and they can go together (instead of heading out this week)
un 5/12?
good news uusue - wasn't here for it, but glad
Pee-pee, vd.
un5/12 - come together?
Wow.
yes, he sounds pretty upbeat, and the reason I couldn't get through to him last night was because his phone # changed and they didn't tell me
thanks, just couldn't see it
Oh uusue, good morning and I am glad things seem better this morning.
No problem.
car, sounds like you are having your own issues with your son - hope that goes well!
Car. I sure hope it helps the little guy. ((hugs))
are you guys using lickety? I am getting yesterday's grid.
I was glad the teacher and GC reassured me that he is excellent at school .... but it made me frustrated that i get all the crap here at home! UGH!
No Lickety today, but Volley has a list in her profile.
Car., that's the way it seems to work
.. can't believe I overlooked the volcano, def. a fish
OMG... car, we always get the crap... my daughter is "perfect" at school and at home I want to lock her in her room sometimes...LOL
thanks Aloy
They say that if they act out at home and are good out there in the world, it's better than the ther way around.
Haz... how do I get there?? Sorry, I just don't know.
But dealing with it every morning just sets my day off to a bad start...every day. And now he is pulling drama at night too. Starting and ending the day the same way is not good for either of us.
(-: yw Mom
mom, if you click on Rankings above, then do Control plus F to find Volley's name, it will be highlighted. CLick on it and her profile will come up.
GAK! I dread this part of the grid....need 1 more word for almost all of the letters! GRRRRR!
car, that's really tough. Hope things improve with time...
Good morning all. Quote for the day..."Worrying, is using your imagination to create things you DON'T want."
may I please have the stats for the 8
When my daughter had trouble back in 1st grade (she is 14 now) we used a reward system. If she did not give me a hard time in the AM I would draw a happy face in her notebook and her teacher would give her a sticker... once she got 5 stickers she got a certificate to pick out of the prize box at school... it worked really well. We only did it for 3 weeks and then she just kind of went along fine after that.
Part of it too is that he needs to strap a set on (sorry to be crass). The world is full of icky people and cannot let every single one of them hurt his feelings!
((Molly)) good morning
un8 - being the tail end of the ru9.
Husband arrived home, I'd better create lu5!
Hi Molly!
Bye Haz! TY for your help this morning!
lol car
thanks Haz, enjoy your lunch
love your quote, Molly! I need it today!
Phantom movie dog- not Lassie.
bye, Haz
time for shower and breakfast, tho...
bye uusue, have a good day
Thanks...found it!
yes, Molly excellent quote
car... true dat! But, it is tough when they are little...
The teacher has found a couple of dinosaur books for him and put them in a crate by his desk. When he comes in to school in the morning, he gets to have some time to himself to read the books. Here, I take his Pokemon cards...if he misses the bus, he loses the cards.
kaplan...the german shepard?
NBT
YEAH!
Was he a shepherd? Rin Tin Tin? What kind of name is that for a dog anyway?
Whatever works for him, car! It will be fine, you will see. Eventually kids learn what works for them.
Yes he was a GS! A repetitive name I guess!
A silver shepherd
Of course he was a GS. Lassie was a collie.
...or they don't and end up lonely and sad...which I certainly don't want for my boy!
signing off for a bit...happy searching everyone!
He was an army dog, right? I barely remember it.
how any words today pls?
67
Bye Angela!
67 Sillygirl and hello
67
ty mom
bye, Angela.. 67
But seriously...what kind of dog is Goofy?
bye Angela
8*poof
A cartoon dog?
lol, some kind of morphed Bassett Hound?
Part basset, part mutt.
And why can goofy and most of all the other friends of Mickey Mouse talk, but poor pluto can't?
Al.... never thought of it, but, yes... I think he is a bassett hound, lol.
Because Pluto is just dumb... cute, but dumb. Very sad.
Because Pluto is a dog, and dogs can't talk, silly.
The hell with politics! These are the issues we need to get out in the open!
But Pluto isn't dumb....he is very smart and helps Mickey out a lot!
again, good company.. and fireworks happen
Congrats Aloy!
congratulations Aloy
tyvm.. have a great Thursday, all.. byee
Bye!
bye bye Aloy, have a great day
I really should be getting dressed now.
I think I am going to go back to bed. I can barely keep my eyes open.
Have a good day all!
{pssst....Kaplan is playing Babble naked!!!}

when does licketysplit update to the current board?
Lickety's list isn't up today
Volleydeemom has a list in her profile
thanks, luv
yw Helena
same here helen our little black haired boy cat is 2 and the large butterscotch female is 6 and she is quadruple his size and she will only play for so long then she reaches out and cuffs him across the head with one paw as he flies by,usually sending him tumbling into a closet or the pile of grocery bags lol
haha, our girl will smack the boy and then he'll stop his hunts and come play with me
is that the female in your picture?
looks just like our
that's the boy. he's a little... extra fluffy...
he's got some padding - keeps him warm in the winter, you know
lol
i know it..a little extra fluffy myself;)
He's on a diet, poor bugger.
So is his sister. We raise "fluffy" cats, apparently.
Hi Babblers ... Is there a list anywhere ??
To be fair, though, neither were thin when they came home from the shelter. We just maintain their stature.
bot our cats are rescue cats as well
norma - look at volleymomdee's profile
rescue animals are the best :-)
Thanks Helen
yw
Hello, All :-)

Hi Zooz
Nice to see you were in yesterdays grid, Norma :-)
Yes I was zooz but very early

Sorry chog seems slow today..i wrote that before you answered..lol
zair
My chog is on a go slow ... some days it takes forever to catch up
oops sorry.
Sorry to ask so early..but is the 9 a plural of the 8 ..not that i have the 8 yet?
not sure why i asked that as there is no `S`..what was i thinking..forget it.
having one of those moments i think .
if you have the un 8 just add a letter to the front of it for the 9
Many thanks, Crossy :-)
Hey, everyone. :D

ahh yes the 6/24
Those folks at Dyson are brilliant. They have developed a dog grooming tool you attach to your vacuum that sucks up stray hairs before they end up all over your house.
i am missing a U in the 2nd column and two in the 4th column. I have 4 UNs, 2 URs
for the price of that vacuum ,they better have extras
there are three ur`s
ok, i have the 7/32 and 5/12
ur4/6
Dyson vacuums are incredible. I will never buy another brand.
I got the other UN in column 4, so still missing a U in 2nd and 4th column
i will rip out the carpets and lay down hard wood flooring befor i pay 800 dollars for a vacuum
u+ opp to day?
i can put down a sub floor cause we have 9ft 2 inch ceilings and put in a nice parquet floor for around 2 grand
add a few area rugs that can be beaten on a line outside and a 10 dollar swiffer and yer done:)
crossy you can get them for $350 at best buy. they are particularly good on pet hair, you'd be surprised at what they pick up after a regular vacuum. but if you prefer hardwood floors that's another story
Hello, Dorens :-)
crossy loves hardwood floors,been thinking on it a while now
hi zooz
cute little grid today?
alas poor ur4/6 i knew him well;)
Really, maybe the top of the line Dyson costs 800 dollars but their mid-level brands run 3 to 400. And considering that I paid 150 for a vacuum every year because they never lasted, I am very happy with my five year old Dyson.
hah!)
haha i am in the grid today ni6
yes they do make a good macine,but remeber the phantom fury? they pimped the hell out of that,we paid 600 for the thing and it was dead in less than 2 years..irked me,all plastic parts in the beater bar..planned obcelesance
Vacuum store guy told us yesterday that Simplicity vacuums are made in the USA and are the best you can buy. Better than Dyson, so he says.
hm, i have no 6;'s
ni6 foolish person.
don't know simplicity vacuums, don't know the vacuum store guy, maybe he gets a nice commish?
ty zoo.. no you aren't
All metal components. I don't need a new one now but will buy one when I need it because I saw the metal. And I prefer buying American.
He also said vacs without disposable bags are not good. I really don't know. Just passing on the info from someone who should know.
interesting.. will look into it
thats why i drifted away from vacs that use bags,i have had several vac they only made for a year or 2,then the bags for them become rarer than unicorn blood lol
Wow, one of the many reasons that I like the Dyson is no disposable bags. I don't know if it is the case where you are Habes, but some vacuum store sales people get a kick back from the bag people to recommend disposable bag vacuums. As long as a vacuum has a proper filter, it shouldn't matter whether it uses a bag or not.
had one,where i was paying 6 dollar a bag neat the end!
near
now we have a bissel upright cannister pet vac
That's what the guy said. The problems come with the filters. Like I said, I really don't know. He said the Dyson guy is an actor and that Dyson is made in Malaysia. I wasn't aware you could get a vac made in the USA.
you can hardly get anything made in the usa.. it is sad. Hey, did you see the eminem chyrsler commercial? i have watched it three times already on youtube.... love it
Did see it. Liked it almost as much as the Dorito/pug one made by the guy for $500.
16 left and a hard grind now
I'm down to 7....but agree the last ones are hard to see
yah, i'm down to 14 and not sure where they're going to come from
hi all
hi je
howdy jmc
i guess i will have to behave my self today and not babble at meetings.
Hey, I'll start buying made in the USA products when they are competitive with the foreign made ones. I haven't driven a made in the US car for twenty years.
well, it is a tiny grid,... why do you have to behave yourslef?
because if i babble in the meetings the grid will be done too soon
i understand that molly, I'm not saying we shouldn't buy imports (i drive a german car myself), just commenting that it is sad that nothing is made here anymore... check it out next time you're at target or walmart... try to find something NOT made in china.
i have driven a toyota echo since 2004 and have doe the front brakes once and changed a tail light bulb..i have gone through 3 north american cars in the same time span
hello jm
I am missing an I from the middle , and I cant find it...its a 4 or a 5
i try to bye local as much as i can but draw the line at cars
in funerary ***?
it is a challenge
crossy does not do wally-marts i use zellers(owned by hudson bay co) as the canadian content is high,but it seem like they are all to be turned into target stores now;((
I have measurement, funereal, two babblets 4s
that chrysler commercial really was sad though... i never think of buying american anymore, just wouldn't even think of it
do you have a rash kalia? you might have to it** it?
fish me!!!!
how did I miss that! ty
it twists funny
hubby just in, off for a quick coffee and to put dinner on....later for my last 6 bye
just got the funeral one
15
I just got the funereal one - nice clue!!
have not seen ruby today yet:/
49 left
i just got it too!
bye kalia
We have never bought a foreign car. I understand your buying them. I know they're supposed to be better. I know my VIbe has foreign parts. I just can't bring myself to buy one that doesn't have an American name.
lol habes
one of the in's is a funeral word?
she is bringing her husband home from hospital today crossy, probably busy
most cars are a international melting pot of imported parts anyways
the reality is that many "foreign" cars are made here and many "domestic" cars are not
in + funerary ***
I know they are.
its all in who puts them all together right
funerally i would say helen
oh, hmm
called to the principal's office... later, all
uh oh dorens is in trouble!
something to think about when you are driving..every part in your car was built by the lowest bidder...lol
OOOH, got it
thanks!
We 'buy British here - good old traditionalo British household names - then find they have been sold to US?/apan/Germany/ everywhere - not even the water in the South East is owned by us any more!!!
the reason our products are not competitive with the foreign products is because they pay their works pennies to work - we couldn't support one person on the wages they make, let alone families. it is sad.
yup,sweat shops grinding out the crap and paying the a dollar a day
True
you mean some pay as much as a DOLLAR a day Cross!!
hubby is retired from General Motors, so of course we buy GM products. the sad thing is that they really have improved greatly in the past five years.
and part of the reason they can pay pennies on the dollars is because the cost of food and housing overseas is not as high
but it's too late for a lot of people. they don't trust their products.
look at the problems nike had a few years back.the press found out that mike jordan made more doing a 30 second mike spot for tv than the wages of everyone in the shoe plant for the entire year
but those people are still dirt poor, jmc
We're GM people. Not employed by them but around here you're Chevy or Ford. We're Chevy/GM.
where you from, Habes?
Pittsburgh
Not even Rolls Royce or Land Rover are British any more
i do gainsay that trent but we have to accept that we have made living in the U.S. prohibitively expensive and that is part of why corporations find it cheaper to pay import taxes and shipping costs on top of low salaries
or jaguar..the ford jaguar.....shidder
shudder*
I'm originally from Michigan - where everything was originally built - GM/Ford/Chrysler. Michigan used to be a great place to live - not anymore.
sorry I don't gainsay taht. . .
can someone give me the funeral clue again? I missed out.
in+funerary ***
Used to visit Frankenmuth when my stepson worked for GM.
w2hats the difference all these cars look exacxtly the same I wouldnt recognise one from another unless I could read the logo as it ran over me
but we still shouldn't have sold off all of our jobs to foreign countries.
stats for the Z please
you are right, dee
Frankenmuth was a 1/2 hour from where I lived.
Hello Babblers. Can someone give me stats or a clue for the bottom row T for NBT? Thanks in advance.
I would love to return to Zehnder's. We used to have Thanksgiving dinner there. Can't get everyone together anymore.
My favorite restaurant of all time!!

And Bronner's Christmas store.

ty helen
tricky grid rose
can someone clue the lu5?
Turning my head in circles, yes.
Lu5 - meal in the middle
lu5= mid day meal
Hi. I just came on and saw all the requests for stats. volleymom has them in her profile.
well that is more a list gramma but ty
hi and nbt
wtg josh
jmc, You're right; but, it does give answers to the questions.
missed the flip did you?
ahh, rose! thanks!
Wait, wait. What is the difference between looking at a list that gives stats and asking for stats in chat?
yes i did jmc. can't catch it every night
me either josh!
to me the difference is that if i look at the list I get lots of words suggested where if i ask for a particular stat it gets me one word and i still have the remaining challenge
question: how does one get to volleymom's list?
people do it different ways
some people use morewords; others list; others ask for clues
go to rankings and click on volley's icon rose
okay must hie off to a meeting
some people lurk and watch!

re: migraines
Hi stid. Helena, I could use some help w/ those un's
no franny, sorry -- in the chog?
ok, i'm off! good luck all!
oh

gramma
which do you need?
bye Helena!

(i think the chog is slow... I didn't see your request)
1:24 am
un8?
thanks franny, I'll take a peek.
you had just left i think
un + go see a movie at the ***ema + past tense of eat
ty
and you can use that base to build another long word
add a letter to the start
and with that! bye all!
another un?
Hugs Back Stidmama,having Lunch and did not see your Entry
bye. ty
:-D Thanks Yvo.
franny, THANKS! I was actually long gone by then, but am SO glad you mentioned that. Will give it a try next time.
yes, good. the Aleve really seems to give a bit extra OOMPH to the pain relief
i feel you - i get migraines ALL the time
It's frustrating to get them so often. The only way I know to avoid them is to not read, not be in bright/flashing lights, not get stressed... but I have a life to live. *sigh*
and of course my favorite activities are reading and being in bright sunlight. *double sigh*
Aw. yeah. I don't fully know all of my triggers. I do know hormones def. play a part. And lack of sleep. And letting myself get TOO hungry, for some reason.
yesterday I had NO pain at all! :-D
yay! :)
and if your asthmatic,try a nice dose of puffers right in the middle of a migraine,feels like your brains are about to leak out of your ears..;(
A day without migraine is a GIFT
oh my, yes. I NEED 9 hours sleep a night minimum or all is lost. Most nights I get 7-8.
LOL thanks for THAT happy thought, cross! *sticks out tongue at cross*
Oh dear crossy!
not me,but the mrs suffers with them,though i am asthmatic,i do not get migraies
I am hoping to make it through today (my "reading day" for the week) without triggering another one, so have the TV on to draw my eyes away from books periodically, and sitting by the window so I can look at the birds and trees.
oh poor mrs cross!
i get 2 headaches a year or so,that is about it,tylenol inc would go broke on me
speaking of reading... not getting any done sitting here chatting with my friends (I can't finish this degree soon enough). see you-all soon, migraine free! *poof*
Be sure to pass on the Aleve info to your Mrs, crossy
tc stidmama
she is allaegic to asa,and ibuprofen
bye stid
allergic
asa?
asperin
asprin
now i got it;)
yaa! props for crossy and his magic type machine!!
typo
sigh...
Ah, well hopefully she can do the Aleve... if you didn't see what I told stid this morning - take an Aleve WITH her migraine med (imitrex, relpax or maxalt etc).
ohh rich people meds,best we can do is caffergot or amatryptalene
Rich people?? HA - hardly!
amatryptalene works but you are a zombie for 3 hours next morning
My co-pay for all of them is $7
we do not have co-pay here cash up front if you do not have a big insurance plan
but basic ohip covers all else
Oh dear. :( Well, I feel like the triptan medicines have saved me. The pain is SO bad... before I got on them about 10 yrs ago, I literally lost days and days of my life.
i am glad you found a med that helps you saintfranny
thanks. ok.. off to the gym now. happy babbling ppl
you are around my mrs age,they say the migraines ease as you get older
tc

they answer to a higher authority - hi kje
I eat a hot dog once or twice a year. When I do, it's Hebrew National.
that's what they ay, jbv
you're making me hungry for a hot dog!! : )
haven't had a hot dog in ages - but I do enjoy a good beef hot dog on the grill
yep, about once year, usually in july, i get a craving and will make a loaded dog... mustard, onions, relish, kraut, chili, cheese.... and then that is it for the next year

I am dong well too
not able to sneak in babble at work...and since my beloved dog joined our family - I take nice long walks after work!
17 left, gong to make dinner, Tuna Melt with portobello mushrooms. will let you know how they turn out
bbs
sounds yummy peri
i have blue cheese at home i need to use... so am looking for a blue idea
bye peri!
will prob end up with a salad
do you like cous cous?
me? yes... I like most every food
did you ever have blue cheese on a hamburger
I make cous cous, kidney or black beans, and blue or feta cheese - it's a great protien
iceberg lettuce, chopped tomatoes, crumbled bacon & blue cheese...yum!!
i like rice, lentils, and feta a lot.. with some frsh herbs
blue just feels heavy sometimes
blue cheese burger... that sounds good... would have to pick up some meat
it is good
yum...
or I could pick up a baguette and just gorge on bread, blue chees, and fig jam...
that may fit my more lazy self tonight
baguette, cheese, and jam for the win!
don't forget a nice red to go with it
lol dc - you and i think a lot alike about food ; )
hi :) Took the fig jam to get me out of lurking
i'm going to a good-bye dinner for a friend who is moving back to Cleveland.
love fig jam with blue cheese!
Why one would move back there is beyond me, but if it makes him happy...
actually - first had that combo many many years ago at the whole foods market in chevy chase
bleo and fig jam is nice
bleu
but... cleveland rocks!
so the song says...
When i worked at the Arlington WFM, we paired those a lot.
i've spent LOTS of time in Cleveland, my mother's from there, and my dad spent HS there.
anyone know the total points for today?
It does have some things going for it, including a WONDERFUL symphony orchestra
they apired an uber strong spanish blue ( apotent cabrales wrapped in leaves) with a dollop of warm fig preserves and were handing them out... it was an "OMG!" moment
831 points
i've no clue, mari. I have 34 and 311, fwiw
thanks kje

i hope parking on Old Town around 6:30 is not too horrible. I've never tried parking near the Hard Times.
Hell, all. :)
hi, cgw
there is usually something to be found... though may have to circle a bit
it is thursday, so shouldn't be as bad as the weekend
that's what i was figuring -- i'll be near King and West
good pooint
hm. i could just get a bus.
but in general - i have good parking karma - it is ridiculous at times
need 2 an h and an r 4 and 5 adding to 21 points anyone want to give l me them ?!?!
how long will the bus take?
hu4/7 - hu + most of frozen water
15 min to Pentagon, then train to King St, about 30 min
ru5 - move fast + most of frozen water
there is a theme there, mari ; )
you'll likely spend 15 just circling looking for parking... might as well take the bus
plus... the people watching on the bus is worth the fare
wow. I'm paying 100/month in tolls.
that 0.25 increase adds up
kje you are a sweetheart - thanks a million
I will be up there in april, dc
ty for those, kje
yw. mari!
bye all...enjoy the grid & the chat...
AGS is meeting at national harbor... they have their meeting in dc about every 5 years, but usually in the woodlawn area
Bye, east.
I am not happy we are stuck out at national harbor
bye eastern... hagn
hasta, eastern, be well
anyone a fan of oatmeal in cakes? I made a really nice oatmeal banana coffee cake this morning which is full of oatmeal and quite tasty - a slice makes a great breakfast - filling
Nat'l Harbor is at the Beltway and 210, so it's easy to get to and from. We'll have to get together if you have time.
it looks like, on their web site, that it takes about 30+ minutes to get into town?
at woodlawn, it was just so easy to walk to a lot of good restaurants, or catch the metro everywhere
Woodlawn -- you don't mean the place in VA, or Woodlawn, MD. Where is woodlawn then?
and since I will be coming from dallas this time, i will not have a car
Nat'l Harbor is VERY transit not-friendly.
they do it on purpose to make you stay and eat at their places and pay lots of money for so-so stuff
30 min into town seems about right, as you'd need a cab over to Alexandria to get a train at minimum
oops, woodlawn is in dallas... i meant the woodley park/adams morgan area
sorry
there is a marriott there that hosts conventions
woodley park? is that right?
yep, nice hotel that one
now that sounds funny too...
Woodley Park, yes. The hotel is the Wardman Park
funny how quickly that info is lost once you move
Sigh. Metro's Ride Guide cannot find the 1400 block of king st in alexandria.
OK, may - the meeting is may 11-14
noted it in my calendar :)
huh. it cannot recognize ANY address on King St, Alexandria. Stupid Metro.
that is a wednesday through saturday... should we plan on a saturday dinner - can be early-ish if people want.... the conference ends at 4
might be able to do lunch - depends on if I have to meet at lunch time or not... otherwise, there is only one thing in the afternoon I am sorta interested in and I can prob skip that
that works for me. I'll be done in Leesburg at 4.
I have a game from 1-4 that day. I can duck out a bit early if needed
cool! dinner will be easier then!
or... happy hour.... must drink... that conference makes one want to drink...
drinks and dinner are very much not mutually exclusive.
def!
Fireworks.
yay cgw!!!

hello jellen (((many hugs)))
if you're still there, I can clue for a bit.
Hi, stid!
hey jellen.
you well?
Yes, I'm well...
And you?
well enough. I get frustrated when I have days like today when migrainey head keep me from being able to do the cognitive work of paper revisions. Otherwise, it was good to have a quiet day at home today.
tomorrow is a full day of classes, so probably won't get much real work done then either.
it's week 6, so only three more real weeks of coursework, and then a week of presentations and then on to student teaching. At least that's the plan...
OMGosh, I just misspelled a word,, and entered a most awful cu4/6 -- makes me squirm to think my evil monkeys typed it.
I keep hoping for a really big snowstorm. *wicked mama grin*
yep. I am not a fan of "those" wurds either, Christine.
Erk - my finger was too light on the H, and that's what happened. Memo to self: proofread before hitting SEND
on the other hand, you got the word... LOL
okay, I am headed to sleep. Hope you-all have a lovely day on Friday! *poof*
G'night, stid
Hit my goal of halfway!
allo
Allo, cos...
i am so sick of these tiny teeny grids leaving me with nothing to do all day :)
