I'm too tired

12:19 am

more printer problems jilli?

co 7, 8, 6, 7...

12:20 am

another new printer, flosey -- a wireless all-in-one to replace the faulty one.

12:21 am

I spent the whole afternoon on the phone to India and crawling around under the table playing (hah) with plugs and cables

12:22 am

mentally exhausted too.

12:22 am

oh gosh, did you have any problem understanding the techie?

12:23 am

oh yes, for sure!

12:23 am

and vice versa

12:23 am

that is soooo frustrating!

12:23 am

yes, of course

12:24 am

well, it's mostly sorted now, although still not recognised by the laptop -- too tired to figure it out but I think I can -- if not, I'll contact HP

12:25 am

hopefully you'll get someone you can understand

hate when I have to dig under my desk amdist the cords... so frustrating... hope you get it resolved soon

pa 7 x 4 so far

12:26 am

yes, and usually dark!

12:27 am

great fun, holding a phone and a flashlight and needing two hands to unplug a cord under the table

sure been there many times... makes me so irritated... can totally relate

12:27 am

and at our age, it's not easy bending and twisting!

12:27 am

this printer is wireless, so now I have fewer cords, and no more separate scanner.

12:28 am

will be great then jilli, when you get it solved

12:28 am

I actually bought some gardener's knee pads, and they really helped with the crawling.

or getting up once I am down there

12:28 am

so right, dee!

12:29 am

but the conversation with the Indian cost $30 -- it was about the router and the warranty had expired, of course.

:~).... ridiculous there isn't a toll free number

12:30 am

darn, that hurts

12:30 am

the number was toll free, but the conversation wasn't

how is that jili?

12:33 am

because my warranty had expired, there was a charge for tech help, dee

aww gotcha

1:06 am

weiner is such a wiener

1:06 am

lol

1:07 am

I think congress is going to penile-ize him

he'll limp out of his office soon enough

1:08 am

He wants to take a short break for tweetment..

1:08 am

he's stilly tryiing to jockey around for support

1:10 am

1:10 am

omgosh......pmsl here! you all are too funny!

1:11 am

1:11 am

ROFL!

1:12 am

yeah.. well I doubt he'll get re erected..

he'll have stiff competition

1:13 am

nbs, nbt, 1/2-way, and pillows calling...thanks for a fun read whilest scrambling for words! * poof *

1:13 am

if he tweeted his junk in the evening, and then denied it, wouldn't that be a nocturnal omission?

1:13 am

lol, good one jessmom

1:13 am

well done Pini

1:13 am

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

1:14 am

I think he was looking for a nocturnal commission...

1:14 am

wd pini :-)

weiner wouldn't be so dumb as to stay in office, wouldhe?

1:21 am

he'd get roasted

pa 7 x 7 so far

1:22 am

weiner roast.. get it???..lol

1:22 am

yikes! 82 P words!

weiner will be gone in a flash

1:23 am

I doubt there'd be many toasted buns for that weiner though!

1:24 am

he won't be able to cut the mustard

1:24 am

I don't relish the thought

1:24 am

lol jilli!

1:24 am

LOL

1:25 am

it's all mouse turd if u ask me!

1:25 am

jilli is TOP DOg

he really is such a brat. the wurst.

1:26 am

oh no

1:26 am

he deserves an oscar for his performance

i can't say i ever sausage an idiot

1:26 am

these are offal.

1:27 am

he shouldn't expect anymore buttered buns either!

1:27 am

ROFL

1:27 am

LOLOLOL m9

it's amusing to see him getting skewered in the press, though

1:28 am

omgosh... naughty babblers!!! LOL!!!! Don't remember this much fun since roadtripping with ren and nutty!

1:29 am

Maybe there should be a Weiner Pez dispenser?

1:29 am

ROFLMAO ruru!!!!!!!

1:30 am

what would pop out to dispense the candy ruru? ;-) LOL

1:30 am

But his wife already thinks he's a dildo.. I'd guess

1:31 am

oh that poor dummy

1:31 am

speaking of buns.. she's got one in the oven!

1:31 am

yes.. that's sad.. in a way

1:31 am

I think so.

1:32 am

1:53 am

hi melon! had the same reflex!!

:))

not even close to the e's yet cath!! still getting through the t's... I work backwards

2:10 am

2:13 am

yes....ty mr p....looking

nbt

2:13 am

ty very much! :-)

on ya melon!

yw cathy :))

rape

PB for me!

and such an awful word :(

2:15 am

lol...FISHY! ;-) lol

pink bubbles and vintage cheddar awaits you melon! :)

ooooh!

All I really want is a magic suffix button so I don't have to type the same word a zillion times...

2:18 am

wouldn't that be a neat little addition, melon

maybe i can set up a electric shock therapy treatment where as when I enter a word I have already tried, I get a 'wiring' to the finger tips.

my bro and I had a disagreement over Boggle® - he would write a word and then put all the suffixes in () next to it: I said you had to write the whole aord out separately for each suffix. Of course I was right! ;p

of course melon! women are always right... when are men going to get it and shut the hell up!

2:23 am

I must get to bed, goodnight all, down to 171

nite flosey! **hugs**

2:23 am

night mrp, hugs back

luv ya... enjoy your sleep

2:24 am

ty, been quite drowsy for last half hour

2:24 am

or so!

melon, at least you just disagree over games... my brother is a total dipsh** lately with everything I say

that's sucky, mrp! we sibs get a long pretty well. One of us is no more; my baby sister, the youngest of 6 - i'm the oldest - passed away from cancer 8 years ago, only 37 years old! It would be terrible if we didn't get along after that.

oh darling!!

I am so so sorry

there is only my brother and I, and he has become someone I don't know.

i have been his 'mother' all his life, tried to change that back to being a sister and he took badly to that.

Oh, I am sorry for you! Funny thing for us is, Rachel was the one person nobody had a beef with. We adored her from the day she was born and it didn't go to her head too much!

his own mother abandoned me, so when I asked him to move out (I was married with kids and he was smoking weed day in, day out with no job), I allegedly abandoned him in some way too

ah - mothering. No-one wants to mother anyne but their kids.

his mother abandoned me, and told him that she was also abandoning him cause of me

and a pothead - not good. You're right not to enable all that.

i will never be 'human' to him

still, what a heartache.

yep, i saw him yesterday... wanna hear about it??

and you mom, I am so sorry! I am one of the lucky ones; my mom was mybest friend.

only if you feel better for telling it.

doesn't matter if you don't... it is just another long shitty story

well, he moved his family into a house only a block away from us. We had never been invited to his apartments before that... they have been married for 6 years

he would come over here to see my kids, he is very attached to Maddison

he kind of ignores Luke, puts up with him, but breaks out the smiles and conversation with Maddison

He ignores Lickety and barely talks to me.

sicko.

2:43 am

mrp....why put up with that? i mean...yes, he is family, but it seems he think he is owed something perhaps? blood only can go so far before you give so much and try so hard without making progress?

do you know what we were served for lunch?? first time at his house... and I brought bread, cookies and chocolate as a house warming

2:45 am

?

pumpkin soup (canned) and water.... oh, and my bread that I brought along.

2:46 am

were your cookies and chocolate for dessert? at least? :S

no cath

2:47 am

so very sad when families drift apart....i can relate.

yes Cath.... it hurts cause we were so close, and the drugs turned him into a paranoid

wow - I need to be somewhere in 6 hours! Must go -- stuck @ ~ 180, 11 7s, no 8 or 9. Maybe later. nite, all!

he was such a darling young man!! adored him

2:51 am

seems your brother has some sort of chip on his shoulder...prob caused by the pot use....so hard when you want to help someone you care about, but they don't see they need to help themselves first.

{poof}

2:51 am

nite mel....

he cornered me a couple of years ago at the local drinking hole... down in the games room, and yelled at me in front of everyone.... 'you are sick in the head... there is something mentally wrong with you... I don't want you around my son... etc etc'. what a killer conversation that was

nite melon!! **hugs**

2:53 am

mr. p...from all i've seen on FB...you certainly have a lot going on and you cannot shoulder the load upon yourself of someone, no matter how much you love them, who won't help themselves too....he may see you as a crutch to lean on?

and hey! I agree with half of what he says! but the way he did it, was so awful!!

I am a burden in his life... someone he 'has' to deal with

but I am going to make a decision soon... I have to make it to help myself into a better place

I spoke to my dad about it, and he told me the same story about how his own son treats him... no different to how he treats me.

2:55 am

lol...wow...sounds like it is more the other way around though! like he would maybe rather be on his own than accept the help you offer?

2:56 am

how old is he, mr p?

he doesn't want me or my dad around

he is 36

2:59 am

perhaps, then, if that is what he really seems to want..maybe you SHOULD all just leave him be? the time will come when he will need you both and perhaps the space will give him time to realize what he is missing out on?

3:00 am

hard though it would be to do. :S

3:01 am

but if he doesn't treat people nicely....perhaps giving him what he claims to want will help him realize he really doesn't want to alienate his family?

too right cathy... I want him out of my life right now too

he is alienating his family!!

he is listening to my conversations and twisting them around to make me sound wrong

his wife even stepped in at one time and corrected him as he tried to twist my words... he has behaved so poorly and only wants to listen to his own paranoia

3:03 am

if it were me, i would just tell him that I love him and want to give him respect and love he deserves, but he needs to love himself first....only then will he get what he needs from people.

i don't know how she deals with it to be honest

i texted him... let me pull up the text... brb

3:04 am

wow....so his wife even sees the error of his ways!

3:04 am

hard part is....as long as people who love him continue to give to him...it will enable him to continue his behaviours

3:05 am

tough love....turning away is sometimes the best way to love someone.

3:05 am

so they will learn....grow up, so to speak.

"Robert, you tried your best I guess, but your issues are your own and tough for u, obviously. U were nasty and mean to some of us today... If u only want to see Maddison, arrange that with me... You ignored the rest of my family and snapped at me. If u have issues, see a f***ing shrink rather than abusing me and dad for asking normal questions about family.'

3:06 am

but once you reach that point....all you can do is hope it will work.

how is it at 36 that he still has to 'grow up' ???!! The dope has screwed his brain

3:07 am

is he good to your daughter? has he ever caused you fear of any type of harm to her in his interactions with her?

I don't hate him, I just don't like him right now. He shows no respect and is abusive. I have to back down cause he does the whole thing infront of the family, and I won't have it.

he loves Maddison, and finds Luke a pain and retarded

3:09 am

if he has, you should not let her see him....if he has not...keep a close eye and explain to your daughter your concerns in a way she will understand..that the distance is actually good for him

3:10 am

i don't blame you one bit...emotional abuse is nasty.

yes, he is emotionally hurting me so much

and the way he treats Lickety??? far out!! like he is just a dog tied up in the corner

they used to be friends, then he told my husband that the only reason he is being nice to him is because he is his brother-in-law and has to deal with him, otherwise, he doesn't particularly like him

3:12 am

maybe it's his way of trying to "control" his world.

3:12 am

wow...that's nasty!

my dad said, the problem with robert and his wife, no one has any control or takes responsibility... they don't know who is in charge of what and just go along with 'whatever'.

3:13 am

he mostly needs his pot supply cut off first....so then he would be forced to deal with his issues...it sounds like

3:13 am

yay, a monster Sunday grid!

3:13 am

do they have their own kids hun?

yes, I never thought my brother would turn nasty... but he has and it is so so hurtful

they have 1 son, he is 5 and a delight!!

but that is a conversation for another time cath... remind me next time we chat

(((ruby))) **hugs**

I have to go and look at what is happening with dinner... we have kids over and need to feed them!! Luv to you cathy... thanks for listening See you all soon!! xox

3:15 am

no problem mr. p. and hey...i'm always available on a FB chat or inbox anytime. {{{HUGS}}}

3:16 am

Hi ruby! sorry to say hi and bye...but it's now past 5 a.m. see what this grid does to me? LOL good thing my son is on a sleepover!

thanks cath! just ping me on chat... luv to you and bless you

6:30 am

Pay not attention to the woman who has not had enough coffee yet.

6:30 am

Hi Molly - how are you?

6:32 am

What is "pt"?

6:32 am

past tense

6:32 am

Oh, I guess I need more sleep too!

6:32 am

6:32 am

Hello Brookie and Cos

6:34 am

have a good day all

6:34 am

Bye!

6:34 am

bye Cos

6:45 am

Hi Brooke, sorry, was off tending to breakfast.

6:46 am

No worries. I really should eat something substantial before the kiddos wake up, but this grid is tooooo goooood!

6:46 am

How have you been doing?

6:46 am

GMorning everyone! :0)

6:46 am

Good morning, Maryte!

6:47 am

I'm taking things one baby step at a time.

6:47 am

Explain?

6:47 am

Hi Brookie!

6:47 am

hi Maryte

6:47 am

What? Baby steps? I find it the easiest way to get through life most of the time.

6:48 am

416! Do we get an extra 24 hours for this one!?!

6:48 am

Oh, I didn't know if you were going through some type of adversity. That was my first thought. Hopefully life is running smoothly, though!

6:48 am

Raise your hand if you think the Babble Gods were tired of everyone bitching about little grids.

6:49 am

Hand raised!

6:49 am

got two hands up here :0)

6:50 am

I love how random the grids are.

6:50 am

good morning

6:50 am

Good morning, mamabook3

6:51 am

i was enjoying the smaller grids. actually finished 2 and got fireworks. don't see that happening with a 416 grid. lol

6:53 am

I would have it ignore everything in my life except the computer to finish a grid this size. THAT is not on my priority list. I'll just dabble at it when I can take a break and see how many I can find.

6:56 am

it's easy to get caught up in a grid this size.

6:57 am

luckily the kiddos will be up soon and they'll be sure I don't get too lost! :D

7:15 am

to my surprise, some time ago i found that i get more words on a single pass if i go tile by tile than if i just type as i see things... so if you want to maximize...

7:16 am

good tip. I'll have to try that! Thanks

7:18 am

Hursh, I think it's less confusing that way.

7:18 am

yeah, it focuses the mind so you're less likely to miss plurals and past tenses and stuff

7:20 am

name that proper noun! fluffy old detective

Miss Marple!

7:25 am

ding ding ding!

good morning, babblers

7:25 am

morning

7:26 am

morning evvyone!

7:27 am

Hurshy I'm trying the square-by-square technique

evening all :)

7:27 am

Marple

I've tried that too, and find the same as hurshy, but sometimes I just don't feel that disciplined..

7:27 am

Cr4...too late

7:28 am

lol, you cr4 but you didn't la4

7:29 am

*Off to the PB for ham biscuits*

7:29 am

*stomach says grrr, which it thinks should be a word*

put some brie on that for me molly :)

7:31 am

Mr. P, I would loose my credentials as a fine Southern woman if I put Brie on a ham biscuit. But you feel free since you have no rep to maintain. : D

sitting out in the pouring rain, under the pergola... but it is coming in from every angle!! computer is covered with plastic... interesting way to use the hardware

oh I have a reputation to maintain, but we do it different here! LOL

7:35 am

but the fancy chefs get their reputation boosted if they do something unusual, as long as it's good - so we could just follow that example.

i would put olive tapenade with ham and ambrosia

7:38 am

olive tapenade on toasted sourdough . . . with a nice Cote du Rhone -- yum!!

holy moly it is coming down like bricks! I am moving inside people!!

7:41 am

well, 219 words down and the kiddos are calling. Hope everyone has a nice day!

7:41 am

Oops, had to get out Aussie dictionary. What y'all call biscuits we call crackers. I was referring to the Bisquick kind of breakfast rolls.

7:43 am

i still think brie with ham on american biscuits would be a winning combo.

7:44 am

*Looks at her olive, green onion and cream cheese spread for crackers. Feels so American.* : D

7:44 am

sounds VERY tasty, Hursh! :-)

7:45 am

Molly LOL!

7:45 am

Hey, at least it's not spray cheese. : D

7:45 am

true!! LOL

7:46 am

gotta run -- BBL -- HAGD, everyone! *poof*

Ooooh Soo excited!!!! a huge grid!!!! and I think I may have the time to complete it!

8:01 am

That's exactly what I was thinking! Good morning all!

hi champ!

8:02 am

HI red!

this grid is so fun for the moment. Of course I have 331 left ha ha!

8:04 am

Perfect for a Sunday...in and out all day...wooHOO!

Yeah, I think I might get exhausted by it but we shall see.

8:05 am

morning, all!

8:05 am

morning!

Hi uusue.

8:06 am

imagine that - I look at the grid and I SEE WORDS!!! lol

8:06 am

as long as you don't see dead people

8:07 am

erm - don't think so, hurshy....

Not yet anyway. Hi hurshy.

8:09 am

is the sixth sense too old to make jokes about now?

8:09 am

No Hursh, but I'm wondering if Sue has seen the movie.

8:09 am

nah!

8:09 am

i haven't SEEN it

I think it depends on the audience hursh.

8:09 am

it's just part of the cultural whatchamacallit

8:10 am

I have not, molly, I am rather dim on contemporary culture

8:10 am

i don't watch movies like that, they seem dumb to me.

8:10 am

but I will stop worrying about hurshy now :-)

8:11 am

Good flick Sue. It's a cleverly written story.

I've not seen the film, btu I know the joke.

I am loving this grid, which means in about 100 more words, it will come to a stop. how is everyone doing today??

8:12 am

Still seeing words..

8:12 am

They seem dumb?

8:12 am

I am ok but shouldn't stick around too long, am supposed to play the piano for services this morning. really bad headaches yesterday, though, from which I am still recovering.

8:13 am

yeah horror/scary type movies, i don't see the point in them.

8:13 am

It wasn't scary. I don't do scary.

I've been waiting to go to the movies, but there is just nothing that really catches my interest, though the Marvel films are semi appealing...

8:14 am

oh the new jane eyre was quite good, red

8:15 am

I'm supposed to go see Pirates with my daughter, although may switch to Bridesmaids. Have heard great things about it.

8:16 am

ok, time for a teeny bit of exercise then off to the showers - got nbt but it wasn't exactly hard :-)

they arent showing that in my town Hursh.

Have a good time with the exercise uusue!

8:19 am

good morning everyone, happy Sunday

Hello Mom!!

8:20 am

hello, ((Red)) how are you doing and how is the hip coming along?

8:21 am

Down to last one - re 7/28 (Between the re 7/32 and re 4/4) any clues please

I started walking on Friday. though I dont walk very well, it is very nice, and somewhat difficult.

8:21 am

glad to be rid of the crutches, I bet

8:21 am

wow, Gran, that is great. Let me see if I have that one. Oh, and good morning

8:22 am

what did you do red? what's with the hip?

Well, i still have to use them outside of the house, but inside, I can go to the bathroom and kitchen independently, which is Nice!!

gran - re + sl5/10

Hello gran, I dont have it, sorry.

thanks to ladycece, I do, thank you!

yw

8:23 am

good morning Ladycece, and thank you

8:23 am

i have found one word for each day of next year.

8:24 am

Thanks for that Ladycece and finished!

Champ I tore my labrum, and it was discovered that my hip had extra bone creating an impingement, so they did some boney work and sewed back the labrum, no running until September or November they think...

8:24 am

Morning Hurshy, that is great

Nice job Hursh.

8:24 am

congratulations Gran!

8:24 am

I have a friend who will need that surgery one day red! You sound like you're doing well. How odd..it's not a common thing, is it?

8:25 am

got most of the 8's but not the 9 - what's it start with?

8:25 am

co Hurshy

8:25 am

co 9/60

Well, the surgery is new-ish. and hopefully it worked. Its really hard to know. I can barely walk now.

8:26 am

Did you have it done in Florida? My friend is really trying to avoid it...that recovery is long...

8:26 am

co is a prefix on it?

8:27 am

oh no, well sort of, technically... got it.

I had it done right here in my town, we have a new guy who just finished a fellowship for it. I tried to avoid it too, my advice is to get it done. I had no idea how much pain I was in . I can not believe I ran a marathon with that pain.

8:27 am

I don't think so

8:27 am

oh good you got it

8:28 am

i mean etymologically it is co and re6 but then you add the extra r and it makes it look like not a prefix.

8:28 am

I don't think she has constant pain yet, although she has been diagnosed with the tear. If she gets closer to it, may ask to put you two in touch, if that would be ok.

8:28 am

exactly Hurshy :-)

No problem. they say that 97% of cadavers have labral tears, so it may not be the tear that is causing her occasional pain. the recovery is terribly long. But I am still glad to be out of the pain I was in, I am not good at rating it and so I constatntly said it was a 2. probably was more like a 7.

8:30 am

i think that is the first time i have ever heard a statistic about cadavers.

8:31 am

I'm just glad you got it taken care of red. Hopefully this will do the trick, and your biggest concern will be not going stir crazy!

8:31 am

although come to think of it i know another one

8:31 am

how long will you be off work, Red

8:31 am

they say that 100% of cadavers are dead.

8:32 am

I sure hope so, hursh!

8:32 am

mitten is being weird

8:32 am

she comes and cuddles for like two minutes, then leaves, then comes back

8:33 am

Hurshy, you have a new cat?

8:33 am

no

8:33 am

same old cats :)

8:33 am

I thought you just had the one

8:34 am

going to get some breakfast...bbl!

8:34 am

oh no, i have three. have had for 11 years.

8:34 am

bye bye Champ

8:34 am

I bet they are company to one another

8:34 am

yes

8:35 am

people think cats are not social but they are much more than you would think

8:35 am

i would always advise people who work full time to get two cats instead of one.

8:35 am

preferably two from the same litter so they already get along.

8:36 am

forthe most part I think they are social.

8:36 am

and I think they understand what you say to them

8:36 am

well, depends what you say :)

8:37 am

if i discourse about philosophy, i don't think they understand that.

8:37 am

this is true

8:37 am

but they know when i'm telling them to do something or whatever, for sure

8:37 am

agreed

8:37 am

they like to pretend they don't sometimes

8:37 am

more convenient for them.

8:37 am

unless the word is "eat"

8:38 am

"what? sorry, i'm just a cat, my english not so good"

8:38 am

"what do you mean, get down from there"

8:39 am

marty is very good about doing what i tell him, but not good about STOPPING when i tell him not to do something (namely bother his sisters).

8:40 am

he always comes when i call him. sometimes it takes longer if he's sleeping, but he eventually makes it.

8:40 am

I am glad they have each other

sorry about the cadaver stats, It does sound wierd. Mom I am off work at least until july, I may take another 2 weeks...

8:41 am

i did not mind the cadaver stat. it was new and interesting.

8:41 am

That will give you a lot of time to rest up, I am glad you will be off that long

yes, but I am bored. Still, with all the Physical therapy and stuff there is not a lot of real boredom.

8:42 am

I would imagine you would be, you seem like you want to keep busy.

i am trying to make a quilt, as well, but that is not going so good as I have trouble sitting at the 90 degree angle.

8:43 am

good afternoon all

SPRITE! HELLO!

8:43 am

Red, please post a picture of the quilt, I would love to see it.

8:43 am

it's such a good feeling to know you're a cat it's such a happy feeling to think about that and when you wake up ready to meow you feel so happy that you know how it's such a good feeling, a very good feeling, the feeling you know you're a cat

8:43 am

hey red, how are you healing up?

8:43 am

((Sprite)) hello

When it become something more than just pieces of cloth I shall Mom.

How are you Sprite.

I am doing alright.

8:44 am

cute, Hurshy

8:44 am

I look forward to it, Red

8:44 am

hi Mom :) Hi hursh!

8:45 am

hey there spritey

8:45 am

am not too great, but will be in while

8:45 am

time for me to start my day. ((Hugs)) to all of you. Have a great day.

8:45 am

Oh Sprite, I'm sorry to hear that

8:45 am

bye Mom, have a good one

8:45 am

bye bye Sprite, you as well

8:46 am

9:11 am

ttfn

9:11 am

bye hursh, all the best

9:13 am

good evening all

9:13 am

hi SS

9:13 am

Good Morning Fellow Babblers. My page is all messed up here again today; anyone else having problems here? How can I fix this?

9:14 am

hi nef

9:15 am

nothing wrong here so far, but big grids tend to be a bit buggy. You could try control + F5.

9:15 am

stats for the L in the top left corner please?

9:16 am

lo4/4 and lo5/10

9:16 am

thank you sprite

9:17 am

don't have the 3rd one yet

9:17 am

got it duhh

9:17 am

hi sprite. Last night when I was here each time I entered anything in chog; my view of chog would shrink. My tile stats "grid" has 1 line of the 1st 4 letters across, then the next line is the 5th column letter. Every other line is like that . Word stats are listed in 1 column in a 13 line list. list

9:18 am

sometimes cleaning out the cache will fix that, Nef. No luck with control + F5? (After clicking somewhere on this page)

9:19 am

lo6/18 is the 3rd from the top L

9:20 am

4TH COLUMN BOTTOM E stats please?

9:21 am

el5/10

9:22 am

for both Es?

9:22 am

hi grant. el4/4 too

9:22 am

hey sprite

9:22 am

I've tried clearing the cache, Control F5 does nothing; and rebooting and refreshing doesn't help. HOwever, the chog isn't shrinking today; so I'll try entering words and see what happens.

9:23 am

can someone clue it please?

9:23 am

snaky fish

9:23 am

grant thats for the other e its a plural

9:23 am

how very frustrating, Nef. The snaky fish comes from the E above it. Listen to me or el**.

9:24 am

make very happy

9:24 am

lol sprite thanks

9:26 am

also an alcoholic combo

9:27 am

et5/12 - 6/21

9:33 am

K killed.

9:41 am

d's done

9:42 am

donderful, mixi

nef, that sounds terrible. Hello again to all.

9:42 am

wb red

9:42 am

there's lots of you in the grid today, red!

well, I am very nice.

9:43 am

you certainly are. It is good to have you (all) around

9:43 am

45 words down; chog down to letting me read just the last 7 entries. How are you doing, red?

I'm doing well nef, send you a message via FB this morning, I think.

9:44 am

good morning everyone:)

9:44 am

nef, it would drive me bananas.

9:44 am

hiya crossy :)

9:45 am

crossy hates these big ones:(

9:45 am

you did, red. Thanks. ANd Hi Crossy. I AM bananas already, sprite! (And I will have to quit; I can't do this anymore!

9:45 am

hi and bye, all, time to run off to UU fellowship (I am playing the piano today)

9:45 am

nef, sorry you are having trouble!!

9:45 am

I fully understand, Nef. Wish I knew a way to solve it, but you tried everything I know already :(

9:46 am

hi and bye, uusue

9:46 am

hi and bye sue:)

9:46 am

bbl!

9:46 am

what is the problem nef?

9:47 am

THanks; Bye for now, Happy Babbling Everybody! (now down to 5 chog entries) :-(

9:47 am

bye Nef, so sorry :(

Nef Cross may be able to fix.

9:48 am

crossy knows many free programs to fix glitches:)

9:49 am

nef cannot see the site correctly. Grid isn't functioning, wordlist is in wrong place, chog isn't complete. Sounds like chog isn't loading completely, which could cause some of those troubles.

9:50 am

relogging, rebooting, control + F5 and cleaning out cache has not helped her

9:50 am

sounds like a cashe issues as well..you still here nef?

9:51 am

if you are,go here http://www.oldversion.com/download-CCl eaner-3.07.1457.html and use this program

9:51 am

has she used c cleaner?

9:51 am

no I don't think so yet

9:51 am

it also cleans the registry

9:52 am

imho,it is a must have for all

9:52 am

absolutely. Very good prog

9:52 am

it is one of the first things i load when doing a new computer build..right after avg and google chrome lol

9:53 am

hehehe so you are happy with google chrome?

9:53 am

then win zip,win rar and vlc media

9:54 am

it is great sprite,twice as fast as firefox,and as far as IE is concerned i cannot wait to get it disabled

9:54 am

after the last crash I made a folder with all the intall files and such. On a separate hard disk.

9:54 am

ok will try chrome then. I was waiting a bit to hear from others.

9:54 am

inStall* files

9:55 am

i am using chrome as we speak

9:55 am

and chrome has an added feature called incognito

9:55 am

leaving no IP?

Does Chrome do Mac? I'm just using Safari.

9:56 am

it opens a window where you can surf and do everything you normally do but it will not create any leftover cookies..it is like you were never on the net

9:56 am

mac??...ewwww...i am not sure... let me check

9:57 am

yes they do...

9:57 am

http://www.google.com/chrome?platform= mac

9:58 am

that is nice, crossy!

9:58 am

it is fast,fast,fast

9:59 am

am downloading it now

9:59 am

am downloading it now

9:59 am

though i keep firefox in bacground as back up..as for IE,i have not used it in 6 years:)

10:00 am

sorry

10:00 am

IE is a rotten prog

10:00 am

i am the king og typos,no need to say sorry to me

10:00 am

hehehe but you are fully understandable, crossy

10:01 am

ie has only one distinction..it is the browser that loads more browsers than any other browser...hehe

10:02 am

roflol!

10:05 am

when you get your first google page up sprite,you will see a little black wrench in top left corner,click on that and you will have access to your incognito page

10:05 am

top right*

10:06 am

and your history cleanr is there for the normal page as well

10:08 am

I recently swithed to IE9 and now when I copy my list to lickety's it won't add the words...tells me there are too many spaces...is there a fix for this?

10:08 am

sorry ouwachita..my fix was to stop using IE years ago:))

10:09 am

ok thanks crossy, will check it out. Not enough themes though :( I want my firefox theme in my chrome browser!

10:09 am

hello everybody

10:09 am

it will import your ff settings

10:09 am

mucho computer trouble today!

10:09 am

hi ouwachita, you could try in phases?

10:09 am

hi rubyfoo

10:09 am

((RUBY))

10:09 am

talk to crossy ruby tuesday..whats the prob with computer?

10:10 am

it totally shut down, power and all, 3 times

10:10 am

when is the last time the innards were cleaned for dust bunnies?

10:11 am

all computers have a over heat shut down feature,and this often happens when you get dust bunnies behind the internal fans and hte heat sinks over the cpu chip get clogged

10:12 am

that is probably it, not that you would impugn [sp?] my housekeeping or anything, crossy

10:12 am

arras

10:12 am

the cleanest howse will generate dust in the computer tower

10:13 am

HI again. Crossy, I closed and rebooted; then checked archives (which I CAN read! Go figure!) and saw your suggestion. That CC cleaner (or whatever) doesn't work on a Mac. But I've switched to Safari and at least stuff LOOKS normal there, but the chog is still loading

10:13 am

crossy, hij weigert alleen mijn bladwijzers te importeren vanaf firefox

10:13 am

sorry, pb for me

10:13 am

(I'm chatting on FF now)

10:13 am

i do not speak dutch:)

10:13 am

it will load slowly, Nef, because it is so big today

10:14 am

go figure, everybody in the Netherlands speaks English and nobody outside the Newtherlands speaks Dutch (except my first husband....lol)

10:14 am

eww...another mac..i am sorry lol

10:14 am

jeezzz how stupid of me! Crossy, it refuses to import my favorites from firefox

10:14 am

OKay! Now can do this in Safari! things look normal now! :-D

10:14 am

how are you sprite, haven't seen you in a while

10:14 am

let me look at it a moment sprite...brb

10:14 am

that is gr5, Nef! Wb!

10:15 am

ruby, not too good atm, but will be in a while. Building noise should be mostly over, just a few more bad days to come over the next couple of weeks.

10:15 am

sprite.click the wrench,go to options,then personal stuff.,then import settings

10:16 am

I am sorry to hear that; you should come here. The loudest noise is the birds, especially the merle who is singing arias to me

10:16 am

and I did talk with the neighbour about it, she apologised for not honoring our agreement and gave us a bouquet and a written apology to make up for it. That did a load of good.

10:16 am

yeah, I tried that several times already, crossy

10:17 am

and we had a couple of days of rain, so the garden looks wonderful and I might actually have figs this year!

10:17 am

Sprite, not to overstate the obvious, but do you have Firefox open when you're doing that?

10:17 am

{{molly}}

10:17 am

problem is ladies,i do not do macs,crossy like a regular tower that i can rip the guts out of and update at will:)..so mac issues can confuddle crossy

10:18 am

crossy, you at least reminded me that I HAVE other browsers!

10:18 am

mine is a windows, crossy :) Hiya Molly :) No I haven't. Should I?

10:18 am

indeed ,nef,switch to another if you have issues

10:18 am

I have to go make dinner with 175 left in this lovely grid.

10:19 am

Hope to see some of you later!

10:19 am

clean them dust bunnies ruby:))

10:19 am

have fun, rubyfoo

10:19 am

BTW, sprite, here is your dog again hahah

10:19 am

No you shouldn't, I just wondered if that was the problem.

10:19 am

but ground yourself before you take side of tower

10:19 am

crossy, it won't go

10:20 am

lol yes rubyfoo, te5 is a loyal one

10:20 am

I am not famous for my dusting.....

10:20 am

inside the computer i meant darlin:)

10:20 am

stupid question: how do I ground myself?

10:20 am

I do it the old fashioned way entering them one at a time

10:20 am

me neither, rubyfoo. But cleaning out the computer is really necessary. It will go poof on you when there is too much dust for the ventilator.

10:20 am

hi hi ru ru

10:20 am

indeed ruru,failing all else,enter each one manually

10:21 am

and it's starting to make the "hairball" noise again, so that must be it

10:21 am

yes I can do that, but I wonder why the import option does not work. hello ruru.

10:21 am

you can ground yourself prior to opening the computer by rubbing your hand on the outside of the case for 15 seconds

10:21 am

make sure power is unplugged

10:21 am

promise?

10:21 am

promise

10:21 am

my hair is already curly, don't need a shock....

10:22 am

i use tooth picks and q tips to dislodge dust bunnies

10:22 am

I know better things to rub for that period of time

10:22 am

an old soft make up brush is also good

10:22 am

glad you said that about the power, I would have left it on. Duh me.

10:22 am

lol..

10:22 am

not even gonna touch that one

10:22 am

not just off..unplugged

10:22 am

NEVER work the interior of computers with the power on, rubyfoo. Please.

10:23 am

you cannot rub without touching, silly crossy

10:23 am

naughty sprite! you must be feeling better

10:23 am

not really, lol, but my bad spirit is unbeatable. You should know that by now.

10:23 am

lol

10:24 am

my! it doesn't take long to stray off topic here; even on a Sunday! ;-)

10:24 am

I didn't say anything!

10:24 am

lol... when I was delivering our Tim into the world, the doctor said at one point to my husband: She won't be so flippant anymore later on! And then he had to come back about 12 hours later, in the night, because everything went wrong. And I said something to him and he cried out to my husband: I don't believe it, she is still that flippant!

10:24 am

forgive us nef, it has already been a long day.

10:24 am

It's because you are here, ruru! You don't have to say a word

10:24 am

most intel and amd motherboards ,will have a 2 inch cpu fan on the board held on by a spring clip or 4 screws..when you remove the fan you will see the heat sink fin...usually full of dust bunnies

10:25 am

look nef, what can I say? I log on, I see I won't get orgasm today. That kind of sets the tone.

10:25 am

{{everybody}}

10:25 am

((ruby))

10:26 am

and a cold shower for sprite lol

10:26 am

LOL! I'm not offended; I love this place! (been dealing with too much bad "stuff" lately, so I need a good laugh!

10:26 am

only if you join me there, crossy ;)

10:27 am

*hugs Nef* We are usually good for a couple of laughs ;)

10:27 am

ill ask.....sorry the mrs says no:((((

10:27 am

morning all. just passing by, but too many cool people not to toss in a "howdy" on my way through.

10:27 am

howdy jes

10:27 am

hoooowwdeeeeeeee! </minnie pe5>

10:27 am

oh and rubyfoo, you can use the vacuum cleaner, but not up close! It may harm some of the more sensitive connections if you come too close with it.

10:27 am

hiya jesdraggon

10:28 am

our poor kitty had operation yesterday jes:(

10:28 am

wow.. sprite what people will do for an orgasm

10:28 am

crossy, your mrs is more than welcome to join us :) In fact, I might leave you two to it.

10:28 am

to cut his tail off?

10:29 am

ahh sprite..be carefull using that facuum as a toy..my hurt if you get too close...lol

10:29 am

the cyst on her tail literally exploded

10:29 am

lol crossy, I believe you! Not using it on people, promise.

10:29 am

blood and matter all over the place

10:30 am

Ewwww! Poor kitty!

10:30 am

ruru, I kinda like them you know :P Today, I would have liked a roargasm, actually.

10:30 am

yum

10:30 am

aw pooooor kitty :(

10:30 am

707 dollars later...:((((

10:30 am

that's how I like them too sprite..

10:30 am

heh. it might have been worth the petrol to come see me

10:31 am

perhaps

10:31 am

;) ruru.... rururoargasms. Nothing wrong with those.

10:31 am

lol@ roargasms..warm in here isint it?

10:32 am

careful, everybody, who knows if these chats will be hacked, then your congressional careers will be over :)

10:32 am

it would be, crossy, if I could just switch two letters in the grid!

10:32 am

hope kitty feels better soon, crossy. i'm off to shower and breakfast with bruce now. *waves*

10:32 am

lol,she is just my secretary and i do not inhale

10:32 am

hi JBV, I am afraid so too. Ah heck, I never was any good at politics anyway.

10:32 am

nor did she, crossy.

10:32 am

lol

10:33 am

say hi to bruce

10:33 am

right, right, crossy. but the important question is "does she swallow?".

10:33 am

bye jes, have a good one

10:33 am

i love the fact that for a while they had a new cigar by the name of lewinskys

10:33 am

*ducks and runs*

10:33 am

roflol really? That is just brilliant

10:33 am

<---- Cam

10:34 am

sometime a cigar is not just a cigar lol

10:34 am

<--- Can't believe Jes just typed that. ahahahaha!

10:34 am

...not gonna touch that one...

10:34 am

lol jes

10:34 am

come on, Lew, swallow, it ain't battery acid!

10:34 am

lol Molly

10:34 am

i think ill let that one pass also

10:35 am

I'm not even reading this - plausible deniability

10:35 am

now don't go all Freud on us, crossy...

10:35 am

if you do not see it it never happened jbv?

10:35 am

Never saw you here JBV *averts eyes*

10:35 am

we will back you if necessary, JBV. No, she didn't read. She just peeked. That does not count.

10:35 am

in about 5 minutes dr g is gonna toss us all out of here lol

10:35 am

like not inhaling

10:36 am

you think so, crossy? I bet he enjoys reading up on us ;)

10:36 am

oh boy

10:36 am

i am sure

10:36 am

...for once I am innocent..

10:37 am

the innocent man..he doth protest too much

10:37 am

actually we are just being grid-loyal. Since or4 is in today. Sure ruru... you come in and it starts. How is that innocent?

10:38 am

rubbing swallowing,blowing bubbles..quite a chat today

10:38 am

all sprite fault of course

10:39 am

:)

10:39 am

yes.. that little vixen

10:39 am

well at least that looks like a good order of actions, crossy

10:39 am

I know Ruru, I'm stunned.

10:39 am

well doing in reverse would just be strange :)

10:40 am

yep, it would.

10:40 am

lol Molly... I believe you. Right away.

10:41 am

afternoon all - how are you alll - rather fruity if the chog is to be believed

10:41 am

10:42 am

10:43 am

not sure if there is such a saying in english... in dutch there is the saying : To leave church before the singing"

10:43 am

dont do the church thing ever

10:44 am

which refers to a very unsafe method of birth control.

10:44 am

i also have chores to do today so i will give you crossys tid bit of the day and leave ruru to keep the ladies out of trouble....

10:44 am

bye crossy, hug kitty and the mrs from me and have a big one for yourself *HUG*

10:44 am

that vaguely sounds familiar

10:45 am

never heard that one, sprite - but it's a great one

10:45 am

hope kitty's tail gets better crossy and speak later

10:45 am

ahahahahahaha...leave Ruru to keep the ladies out of trouble...ahahahahahaha!

10:45 am

For more than 3,000 years, Carpenter ants have been used to close wounds in India, Asia and South America

10:45 am

10:45 am

:/

10:46 am

10:46 am

10:53 am

Hi Gang

10:53 am

hiya hego! Long time no see, are you well?

10:54 am

Good Sprite. And you?

10:54 am

I got a Kindle and disappeared for a while.

10:54 am

well enough. Looking forward to the end of the neighbours' adding to their house.

10:54 am

But I missed everyone.

10:54 am

ohhhh I am jealous!

10:55 am

So glad we have Father Ruru tending the flock. : P

10:55 am

i read 45 books the first year.

10:55 am

yeah. That ruru wolf looks good in sheep's clothes.

10:55 am

lol

10:56 am

Good for you hego. I have a Kindle too. Try not to pay attention to all the disparaging remarks about them that get posted here.

10:56 am

I adore mine.

10:57 am

Uh oh. co words.

10:57 am

I would love love love to have one. I can d/l hundreds of ebooks. And crossy could send me loads too, he said.

11:00 am

Mother of Babble! It's a whopper!

11:00 am

hi Judi, it certainly is. But easy.

11:00 am

Hi Judi

11:00 am

co + double consonant + drinks made with lemon or lime

I tried to keep my mind pure with all this dubious chat here

11:00 am

ty guys

11:01 am

Dubious????

11:01 am

I am sorry, I was cluing the 9.

11:01 am

WHAT!

11:01 am

<---- Hasn't had a pure mind since age 16

11:01 am

actually, if you noticed the chog was dubious, your mind cannot be pure to start with :)(

11:01 am

*cough*

11:01 am

And hope to never have one again. lol

11:01 am

Delirious, maybe...

11:02 am

a pure mind is severely overrated, I think.

I'm at my sunday best

11:02 am

YAY! Sprite!

ok double consonant...

11:02 am

I'm going to read down and find the dubious stuff!

11:03 am

and the sweet drink with sugar and lemon is lemon***. Plural for the 8.

11:04 am

what does the 9 start with please

11:04 am

co, Kazz

thank you so much I have 375 words and i'm not suire if I'm going to survive if I have to go through all of lickety's

11:05 am

oh you will survive. But I think you should stop the moment it is no longer fun.

11:06 am

Gosh. I never thought of that.

11:06 am

of what, hego?

11:06 am

Stopping.

11:07 am

lol!

11:07 am

I get all obsessive.

11:07 am

that's what I am here for. To remind us babblers of the obvious. It gets so easily sidetracked when babbling.

co9 and see sprites clue. One thing co's with another

11:08 am

*wonders what I am here for?*

11:08 am

to make us behave, I heard, ruru. And FM is here to take the blame... and BabbleRabble and Haz for giving brilliant clues...

11:09 am

You and Crossy are the MEN!

11:10 am

3 left, 1x4 and 2x5, 1xP and 2xT. Argh!

11:13 am

11:13 am

Hi jes

11:14 am

bye, sprite

11:19 am

bye sprite..

11:19 am

hope you find your orgasm soon

11:20 am

It's missing in this grid.

11:20 am

Close. But no cigar.

11:20 am

yes.. she said she kept missing one

11:21 am

:-D

11:23 am

oh god.. 24 g's

11:24 am

I need one more h..he** with the 7/36, please?

11:24 am

Yikes!

11:25 am

Hi krista. Just starting

11:25 am

he7/36 - what Dorothy did with her red shoes?

11:25 am

HAZ!!!

11:26 am

ty anyway, Hego...wonderful clue, ty :)

11:26 am

Good morning/afternoon all. Hello, hego.

11:26 am

How are you. How is Spangle?

11:27 am

thanks, haz

11:27 am

I'm fine and she's getting older but still in good form.

11:27 am

Great!

11:28 am

You're welcome, jesdraggon.

11:29 am

how old is she now haz?

11:30 am

She was 10 last November - not showing signs of arthritis or anything but just that bit more reluctant to exercise than she used to be.

11:30 am

She shows a fine burst of speed when we're heading for home so there's clearly nothing wrong with her!

11:31 am

oh.. a couch potato type

11:31 am

I do the same thing. It's age related.

11:32 am

She always used to 'circulate' with excitement when I produced the lead. Now she kind of comes with an air of resignation. She's just too comfortable inside.

11:32 am

*princess*

11:32 am

I relate

11:33 am

will we see FM again ?

11:34 am

Oh, I'm sure she'll pop in now and again, ruru, no word of her abandoning babble completely.

11:34 am

<... taking self to PB...

11:34 am

Does BabbleRabble still play?

11:34 am

that'

11:35 am

that's good

11:35 am

Yes, Krista, he does.

11:35 am

yes, BR is still here off and on

11:35 am

I don't know if other older players feel the same but I certainly don't chat as much as I used to although I still do the grid every day.

11:35 am

Ah, haven't seen him lately since I've been back to it.

11:35 am

Hi Nef

11:36 am

Right, Haz. I'm the same. I'm up to seven years this month.

11:36 am

I don't do the grid every day, but don't chat as much.

11:36 am

hi Hego, Krista, Haz and all. I've been having page layout problems; so trying to catch up and not chat as much today

11:37 am

Most pop in and out.

11:37 am

Gosh, you've been babbling a long time, Krista!

11:37 am

well seeing the topic under discussion i have to jump in... ive been on babb;e for years and years

11:37 am

but im not a regular anymore

11:37 am

ruru--g's aren't bad thought I'm slowing down at 18...

11:38 am

I remember you well, Saddy.

11:38 am

Yes, long time for a game, huh. I remember you, Saddy.

11:38 am

I've got you in my card reference file somewhere, filed under 'used to chat'.

11:38 am

lol

11:39 am

It's funny seeing new people appear, becoming all addicted and new-fangled with the game etc. I just feel rather jaded sometimes with chat.

11:39 am

LOL, Haz! I hope I never end up in the wrong file! ;-)

11:39 am

i became a member about 4 years ago... uswd to play a couple of years before that too

11:40 am

lol Nef...i like chat, just get so sucked into it then before I know it, hours have passed

11:41 am

I feel like a baby at 1 1/2 years.

11:41 am

Just don't set the old-time babblers off on their memories of having to babble by candlelight.

11:42 am

:-D

11:42 am

no hego; don't feel like that. I've "known" you for most of that time! You do chat! :-)

11:42 am

a couple of years for me ... hello everyone

11:42 am

I can't resist you people.

11:42 am

hi origami

11:42 am

Hello, origami.

11:42 am

Hi

11:43 am

LOL Haz...or...**shudders** dial-up

11:44 am

I do remember when entering every word caused the page to flash.

11:44 am

See, I've just recently "met" origami; because I hadn't seen her in chat before (or didn't chat/play when I was around); so she's newer to me than some others who may have been here slower

11:45 am

"slower?" I don't know where that came from!

Ok, I'm totally stuck on the re7/28, the last one after the re7/32. I have been to morewords and everything. Can anyone help?

11:45 am

coffee, nef?

11:45 am

Oh, I had forgotten about that flash thing! Off for a bit. Nice to see you ladies. Ruru, you can come back now (he always disappears when I chat).

11:46 am

bye, krista

11:46 am

I'm just looking for it, rasta.

11:46 am

I probably need some, jes. Good idea. BRB

11:46 am

12:07 pm

thank you very much.

12:07 pm

that one threw me

12:07 pm

You're welcome, ruru.

12:07 pm

12:08 pm

But it was upright and grand of Sue to make herself available.

12:11 pm

12:13 pm

Every once in a while, I try to keep up with The Punmaster.

1:51 pm

de + (not mice, but bigger)

1:51 pm

and hello everyone, back for a few minutes

1:52 pm

ty flosey

1:52 pm

yw ivesy

1:52 pm

Who'd a thunk it. ty

1:52 pm

Hi Flosey

1:52 pm

hi hego

1:58 pm

Hi Babblers!

2:00 pm

Hi Aloy

2:01 pm

hi Aloy

2:02 pm

hi Hego.. hi flosey - guess everyone is buried in the grid.. nice big one for a Sunday, not too many weirdo words either (-:

2:03 pm

true Aloy, but it is also a gorgeous day outside!

2:03 pm

my eyes are getting fuzzy.

2:04 pm

have been at it for a while, on and off.. started at the flip and have come back twice after other activities.. flosey, it is in the 50's, overcast here..

2:05 pm

ah, we've (finally) arrived at planting weather - hubby's going from dawn to dusk

2:06 pm

but I have to go out when I finish and clean up a mess.. a raccoon tried to swing on our hanging bird feeder, fell off, and knocked over a big planter on the deck railing, so lots of dirt and pieces of pottery.. sigh

2:06 pm

ah, what a mess, those cute critters can be so destructful

2:08 pm

hello, again, back from my walk - and aloy, sorry to laugh, but your raccoon and my squirrel are keeping us quite busy!

2:09 pm

indeed.. last year one climbed up on the deck post, walked out on the railing holding our wren's nest gourd, knocked it down.. so now we have a baffle built over the wren's nest.. so far, so good.

2:09 pm

Mine managed to dig up some nice juicy gladiolus bulbs I planted this spring - I kept going out there and replanting wherever I could - I now have 18 flowers coming up (out of 48 planted!)

2:09 pm

ah, how discouraging jbv

2:09 pm

trying to outsmart raccoons and squirrels.. losing proposition

2:10 pm

I know, isn't it amazing with those tiny brains what they can do?

2:10 pm

does anyone else have this problem - our squirrels have been gnawing/chewing (eating???) the plastic lids of Rubbermaid garbage pails - not only mine - all the neighbors are noticing it

2:11 pm

when we moved out here, I was planning to have a garden of iris - planted one, it bloomed with the most beautiful pale pink blooms, 3 on the one stalk, good thing I took a picture - next year it was gone

2:11 pm

we thought we had erected the bird food stand so that squirrels couldn't reach the feeder.. hah! Hubby watched as one of the critters actually used the pool screen as a trampoline to "bounce" over to the feeder.. so the feeder was moved

2:11 pm

they make a big enough hole to climb in and find the tre asure

2:12 pm

we had squirrel problem in Ontario but not here, just the raccoons

2:12 pm

and deer, and bunnies and wild turkeys

2:12 pm

h'mm, sounds like the natural foods of the squirrels are depleted this year.. no acorns to store?

2:12 pm

I'll tell you the whole sad story, for anyone who needs a laugh: so I had two lids with holes, came up with the ingenious solution of layering them so there was no access for the critters, then the garbagemen came and left me with only one lid!

2:13 pm

oh groan, JBV

2:13 pm

ah, that's annoying - probably took off first lid and heaved the remains!

2:13 pm

and...... you CANNOT go to the store and just buy lids, trust me, I tried it

2:14 pm

well, it was pretty hole-y, so I don't blame them for thinking it was garbage :)

2:14 pm

that's odd because you'd think there'd be a market for second lids

I think you need to call the garbage service! Hello all.

2:14 pm

I'm going to try contacting Rubbermaid directly

2:14 pm

hi red!

2:15 pm

maybe some ammonia spray?

2:15 pm

good thought jbv

2:15 pm

hi red, that would be an absolutely wasted call, I'm sure -they will politely take notes and that's that

Aloy, hello! and Hi Flosey and jb and everyone.

2:15 pm

hi again red

2:15 pm

haven't tried it, but heard it is effective

2:15 pm

I tried the spray, Aloy- paid $14.99 for a critter repellent at the garden center

2:15 pm

I've been in and out all day - trying also to look busy around the house

2:15 pm

that was probably their appetizer

Not even sure they would take notes.

2:16 pm

LOL

2:16 pm

we're laughing, at least I don't have a bear problem (yet)

I would like to finish this grid, as I really have nothing else to do...

2:16 pm

squirrels are just cute

2:16 pm

love your icon red

2:17 pm

that can't be true, red, just nothing else you want to do, right?

2:17 pm

and chipmunks! we have them and a family of groundhogs

2:17 pm

we've had a bear up the hill behind the house - hubby called a neighbour and it was gone in no time

2:17 pm

groundhogs not so cute, ALoy, they do a lot of damage to lawns

Well JBV, I am still sort of stuck laying about, so I have very little I *CAN* do.

2:18 pm

one of them dug under a neighbor's pool which collapsed the whole thing

2:18 pm

also, same neighbour killed a wolf up the hill behind our property - he keeps sheep up there

2:18 pm

oh, sorry, red, I forgot - how are you doing??

My Dad hates Groudhogs.

2:18 pm

well, I've watched them a lot JBV.. they seem to like the plantain weeds in the lawn, so I don't mind.. they just better stay away from my flowers

I am doing pretty well, I think. I am walking more, but I Lurch which is un amusing but I dont know how to stop it.

2:19 pm

I also notice our neighborhood groundhog is very skittish and runs away as soon as he catches sight of me - that's good

2:19 pm

back now all - been lurking - grid was so big - wanted to finish tonight so i have got my fireworks

2:19 pm

you had surgery on your knee? forgive me, I've been out of the loop a little

2:20 pm

hi Kazz

Hip. My knees are awesome.

2:20 pm

yes, I bang on the window if they get close to the flowers.. and they scurry like crazy back to their burrow

2:20 pm

and congrats,

Congrats Kazzer!

2:20 pm

hip, oh, sounds like more recovery time

2:20 pm

yay, wahoo for Kazzer, congrats!!!

2:20 pm

thanks Red - its quite a big grid today

It is apparently a lot more complicated, but..I am "Progressing as expected" and thats all I need at the moment.

the Grid is HUUUUUUUUUge!

2:21 pm

was it a hip replacement

2:22 pm

wishing you a full and speedy recovery, red.. have a friend who is so glad he had hip surgery, has dramatically improved the quality of his life

2:23 pm

my mum in law had a new hip and she never looked back - took about 3 months for it all to settle down but she's great now

No replacement, they cut off some bone and repaired some cartilidge. Oddly, it is a longer recovery than the total hip replacement, but, I should be able to keep my hip forever, and run whih is a big deal.

2:23 pm

right folks off to watch the rest of he Canadian Grand Prix - its stopped because of the rain

congrats again Kazzer, this was a massive grid!

2:27 pm

hi again all, another big blowup btw my son and his gf, he came home with a bloody mouth and says she didn't do it. WTF?????

2:27 pm

best wishes, red - hope it's easy and quick so you can get back to your old self

2:27 pm

sorry but this is driving me absolutely bananas.

2:27 pm

oh dear

2:28 pm

oh oh

2:28 pm

wow, sue, she sounds quite violent

2:28 pm

and then he says I am being selfish for asking him about it. I am so mad and frustrated!!!

I think your son needs a new GF. or No GF for a bit. MY goodness!

2:29 pm

think that relationship is or should be history?

2:29 pm

yes, but he doesn't want to hear it from his mom, tough spot to be in , sue

2:29 pm

she smashed his bedroom door last week, and I didn't call the cops on her b/c he didn't want them involved.

2:29 pm

ah sue, the thanks you get for caring!

2:30 pm

but if she ever sets foot on my property again I am calling them right away and having her arrested for trespassing.

2:30 pm

sigh.

2:30 pm

or get a restraining order?

2:30 pm

she's doing this partly because the summer semester starts tomorrow - she does everything she can to wreck his studies

2:31 pm

I can't, flosey, because I don't have a relationship with her, although I'm seeing a lawyer tomorrow to see what my options are.

2:31 pm

wow, he's better off without that one

2:31 pm

hope your lawyer can help, sue

2:31 pm

anyway I will slink off again for a while. sorry to ruin the chog.

2:32 pm

how old is he uusue? he doesn't have to live at home and maybe if he had to pay for he repairs he would clue in sooner

2:32 pm

glad you could vent, sue.. tc

2:32 pm

not at all, better to get it off your chest

Venting is fine. and sue I just dont get how he feels htis is behaviro he wants in life.

2:33 pm

he's 21, bugs, and I am paying to put him through college. maybe I should cut the strings but jobs are really hard to find; he is very smart and has a good future if he gets an education and skills. I don't want to dump him out on the street. (Her, on the other hand...)

2:33 pm

abuse works both ways red. the abuser is very skilled at making it the victims fault and they start to believe it after a while

2:33 pm

here's some good news - just saw a photo of Gabrielle Giffords online - smiling, looking great

2:34 pm

that is good news, JBV..

2:34 pm

I saw that too, jbv! She really looks wonderful.

yes that is good news.

2:35 pm

having a late lunch - see you all later or tomorrow - keep well

2:35 pm

bye, JBV.. hagd

2:35 pm

one of my sons is in a situation like that uusue but he won't leave because she will take the children. she was finally diagnosed with bipolar disorder after the police were called and things are a bit better now

2:36 pm

fortunately no kids involved here, bugs, but he's been in this relationship for 4 years now - I worry that it's really ruined him for a normal one

2:37 pm

no kids may be the only blessing inthis situation then!

2:37 pm

this girl has had the police called on her before - her own father had her arrested once - but she doesn't have any health care coverage so can't really get help

2:38 pm

anyway I am going to go sit downstairs and make sure she doesn't come around. bbl.

2:38 pm

last word ts5.12: t + ***i* Hawkins Day..

2:38 pm

is she living in your home? perhaps you can get marital counselling for them because they are family and let someone else help him see the light

2:39 pm

YAY and thanks Aloysius

2:39 pm

the 3rd pa7/36

2:39 pm

sue, if she is a danger to herself or others, she could be held for 48 hours in a mental health unit without her consent.. I think..

2:40 pm

start off like the previous ones, ivesy, end with what a dog or cat is to you

2:40 pm

3rd pa7/35 a low wall, as around a deck

2:41 pm

oops, pa7/36 that was

I am down to 160 and feeling like I have done an entire grid already.

2:41 pm

thats the one i needed, ty

2:42 pm

first 4 letters the same, then.. is a dog or a cat your favorite type of ***?.. oh good, glad you got it

2:43 pm

well, off to clean up the mess and move the bird feeder.. see you all next grid, poof

3:03 pm

4:45 pm

I have the downstairs' bunny, Miss Beatrix Potter ("Miss Bea") and 2 males upstairs, in their own rooms, Gandalf the Grey and Tucker John.

4:45 pm

ty Glan, new word for me

4:45 pm

hi lyn

4:46 pm

hi lyn

4:46 pm

Losing a beloved pet is very saddening.

4:46 pm

scrab how are the other bunnies taking it?

4:47 pm

i was thinking of you the other day scrabby i was in the bush and saw a jack rabbit:)

4:48 pm

They are all in separate rooms. I have never had a "bonded pair."

4:48 pm

I see

4:48 pm

re 7/28 word is re6/18 and the hook letter Glantarell

4:49 pm

Westford, my sister adopted a bonded pair of brothers (Thunder & Lightning) and those boys are so adorable together--grooming, sleeping together.

4:49 pm

how long did you have sebastian?

4:49 pm

i got it nd clued it for everybody a few minutes ago minver

4:49 pm

16 Ps left

4:49 pm

and 2 Ts

4:50 pm

Has anyone else gotten a message saying a script on this page is making Internet Explorer run slowly & to stop running the script? Chose to stop running script

4:50 pm

Sebastian was 9 yrs 1 mo--the oldest bunny that I have ever had. 6-8 yrs is usual lifespan. I had 2 others reach 7.5 yrs. Miss Bea is at least 4 (was a rescue), Tucker is 6 and Gandalf is 7.

4:50 pm

so if rabbits are bonded to another rabbit, then they don't interact with their human owners as much?

4:51 pm

Nope, Min

4:51 pm

yes Min

4:51 pm

i chose to stop running explorer..so no problem here:))))

4:51 pm

he was your special boy then

4:51 pm

what do you use, crossy?

4:51 pm

Nope, bonded bunnies are still as sociable as single bunnies.

4:51 pm

i used firefox for 3 years and for the last 2 i have been using google chrome

4:52 pm

When I refreshed Babble page, it reloaded but now I do not see total words and total word score anymore

4:52 pm

I haven't used IE in 10 yrs--I use Firefox.

4:52 pm

expert seems to be tied to explorer, though

4:52 pm

I use firefox too

4:52 pm

try again Min, or turn computer off and on again or just reboot

4:52 pm

i do not use expert

4:53 pm

I tried Chrome last summer but did not like it as much as Firefox. FF has add-ons that I like.

4:53 pm

well rarely..since i rarely get over 75% lol

4:53 pm

A's done!

4:53 pm

I've started using chrome...much faster I find

4:53 pm

Doesn't matter because I gave up on the grid anyway

4:53 pm

Min, You need to 'Continue' using the script or it will truncate the word list (though they will all still be there)

4:53 pm

and the new ff is out now,so i am sure there are some tweaks

4:53 pm

it is very fast kallias

4:54 pm

I like chrome now too; switching from firefox took a little getting used to but now I like it better

4:54 pm

Latest FF = 4.0.

4:54 pm

stats for the 9 please

4:54 pm

co9/60

4:54 pm

thanks sue

4:56 pm

got it

4:56 pm

Hm, I see the first 2 letters of the 9 but need more guidance.

4:57 pm

chrome has the benefit of doing prefetching so it speeds site up where there is a lot of flash visual

4:57 pm

c's done

4:57 pm

no idea what that means crossy :)

4:57 pm

co9 - relationship between two things

4:57 pm

start with fenced horses and end with marching venue

4:58 pm

sort of like bonded bunnies!

4:58 pm

Awesome Periwinkle!

4:59 pm

*thinking about fenced horse and marching venue*

4:59 pm

Congrats Periwinkle!

4:59 pm

ty Min, small victories are good

4:59 pm

any help with the pa6 immediately after the pa4 friends?

4:59 pm

5:00 pm

hiya scrabs {{hugs}}

5:13 pm

hi there peri!...sue... lynxxx :)

5:14 pm

so what is new in babble land?

5:14 pm

I don't understand why Enable spells koala and emu incorrectly - they are never spelled like that here

5:15 pm

Scrabs, I've been looking for you in the chog -- wanted to convey my sympathy on the passing of your sweet bunny

5:15 pm

126 left, laundry and dinner, bbs

5:15 pm

lynxxx, you're looking for REASONS Enable does what it does?? LOL

5:16 pm

I know Une, a moments stupidity...I usually let Enable 'words' go over my head but....

5:16 pm

:-)

5:17 pm

i dont even question enable anymore

5:17 pm

TY, Une. I miss my tiny bunny SO much.

5:18 pm

I'm sure . . .

5:18 pm

{{{ scrabs }}}

5:18 pm

And, Une, my columbines are really spectacular this spring--very tall and beautiful.

5:19 pm

wonderful! We had such an insane amount of rain earlier in the spring, and extended cool weather (NO LONGER!!) -- my flowers went nuts -- armloads of peonies, then hydrangeas, and now lilies :-)

5:19 pm

Our pets become such a part of our daily routines and they give us so much love.

5:20 pm

Scrabs, I don't know what I'd do without my adopted 4-legged girls . . .

5:20 pm

you should post some pix of your columbines!

5:22 pm

hi une how do you keep your hydrangeas from taking over?

5:22 pm

There is a tiny bunny eating grasses in front of our house even as I do this infernal grid. So we do make connections even wehn we don't think about it.

5:22 pm

they WOULD if I didn't cut so many for bouquets for friends :-)

5:22 pm

awww, hi stidgmere :-)

5:23 pm

ours has spread and spread..just barely blooming now

5:23 pm

just hit 60f here as well scwabby

5:23 pm

and I KNOW it's "bee balm" but I was still excited a little while ago to see bees on it! LOL

5:23 pm

You need to cut them back each year quite hard

5:24 pm

we do lyn all the way but I think we may have to dig up the roots

5:24 pm

it's like they're on steroids lol

5:25 pm

I wonder if they need feeding to flower well?

5:25 pm

if they're in a good location and have plenty of water and good dirt, they'll go CRAZY! LOL

5:25 pm

I've never fed mine

5:25 pm

that's what they're doing

5:25 pm

Other than my columbines my perennials have yet to bloom. I am in zone 4 so have a short season.

5:26 pm

they do make such pretty bouquets

5:26 pm

west, are you saying you have foliage but no flowers, or that you have more of BOTH than you want?

5:26 pm

more of both

5:26 pm

oh, west, I agree -- just a few stems and they look soooo elegant

5:27 pm

ooohhh, and you cut them way back?

5:27 pm

yes we do but it seems they come back 3 times the size

5:28 pm

LOOLOL!! They think they're making you happy!!

5:28 pm

5:45 pm

the university i went to was tied with scal on david letterman's list for universities with best looking women...

5:46 pm

yeah, I get my share of airheads in class but some of them are actually pretty sharp and work hard.

5:46 pm

I think they'd have to be to take a course in physics

5:47 pm

5:47 pm

5:47 pm

Hi all! Figures! Big Sunday grid and I am just getting here!

5:47 pm

hi, car!

5:47 pm

i did same car.ee

5:48 pm

hey car :-)

5:48 pm

Shopping at Walmart in our rural town is the best way for me to boost my self-image.

5:48 pm

hi car.e just jump right in

5:48 pm

Hi Car. You have lots of time to finish.

5:48 pm

I am! Already 100 done!

5:48 pm

walmart was voted out of westford

5:48 pm

lol, scrabs, works here too (Dollar General is another good one...)

5:48 pm

I mean they wouldn't let it in

5:48 pm

yay for westford!!!

5:48 pm

good for them, west!

5:49 pm

{{Scrabs}}...thinking of you.

5:49 pm

ok..so..smart and creative people in babbleland

5:49 pm

here they not only let it in, they gave it tax money to expand

5:49 pm

wouldn't allow any drive up windows either

5:49 pm

my theme for camp next week is time travel

5:49 pm

<---- runs away....

5:49 pm

oohhhh, fun!!!

5:49 pm

and is for girls 13-15

5:49 pm

It's true, Sue. When I leave Walmart in our town I feel great--clean, well-dressed, well-mannered, with good dental health, and generally very successful.

5:50 pm

<-------> dragging car.ee back kicking and screaming

5:50 pm

<--- remembers living in New Mexico where the liquor stores had drive-through windows

5:50 pm

backwards or forwards or both carlee?

5:50 pm

oh, that sounds great, carlee!

5:50 pm

drive-thru daiquiris in Louisiana still

5:50 pm

no way

5:51 pm

soooo... i need... interting activities....

5:51 pm

interesting* even

5:51 pm

you going into the future or the past, carlee, or both?

5:51 pm

makeovers to look like they are from the 50's with poodle skirts and such...

5:52 pm

Is that true? Drive-thru liquor stores?

5:52 pm

moved to a new naab and there's a jamaican "flavor" so got me some curry goat on rice for din din. So don't need the food but it was soooooo good

5:52 pm

have them make outfits that look like what people will be wearing in the future . . .

5:52 pm

used el cheapo materials

5:52 pm

i thought about decoupage as a friday night chill out craft ( victorian era)... we staying in a park that has a native indian village ... i was thinking tie dye for the 70's and we doing a backwards meal....( dessert first )

5:52 pm

in NM, yes, scrabs, at least when I lived there in the 70s

5:52 pm

we are at camp....in the woods... in tents....

5:52 pm

carlee, sounds like you've already got it nailed down!!

5:53 pm

they wont be beinging surplus costuming stuffs....

5:53 pm

how about living without modern conveniences, carlee - see if they can figure out how to get food and water, how to make clothes, how to get rid of garbage and waste...

5:53 pm

bringing* even

5:53 pm

was just thinking construction paper, tape, staples

5:54 pm

how to clean (house, clothes)

5:54 pm

sue's seizing teachable moments!!!

5:54 pm

there's always music

5:54 pm

construction paper etc is too... young for teens am afraid

5:54 pm

music, yes!!!

5:54 pm

we do that all the time at camp sue...

5:55 pm

I like Sue's idea.

5:55 pm

no hydro.... so no music... and music is a pollution in the park..this is girl guides

5:55 pm

well, I know you don't exactly have those things, but figuring out how to do it long term is a little different

5:55 pm

can't have a sing-a-long?

5:55 pm

the girls practise "no impact' all time when camping..not disturbing flora and fauna...

5:56 pm

we do sing along at campfire all time...

5:56 pm

and the woods have built-in percussion instruments!

5:56 pm

okay you said no music

5:56 pm

<--- spent a summer as a camp counselor in a girl guides camp many years ago

5:56 pm

we leave everything in place une...

5:56 pm

a broken log is home to all the wee bugs that break it down.. we dont disturb

5:56 pm

yeah, I just saw the "no impact" clause

5:57 pm

i thought u meant take a stereo for music from across the years...

5:57 pm

we used to have fun with baby pictures..guessing who is who

5:58 pm

is this overnight camp all week?

5:58 pm

we do that at our first meeting of the year ( or next to first )- the baby pic thing

5:58 pm

ok, back in a mo *poof*

5:58 pm

well, then, how about imagining how the surroundings would have looked x years ago - 10 (should be easy), 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, and so on - the shorter times are easy, just smaller trees and whatnot but as you get farther out it takes more imagination.

5:58 pm

all weekend....2 nights...leave fri and back sun

5:58 pm

When did this tree start to grow? How did this rock get here? and then you could go forward also...

5:58 pm

sounds like so much fun

5:59 pm

that would be a good discussion whilst they preparing their meals..ok...cool

5:59 pm

it would be west if it was my first of these camps this summer..but is my 3rd in 4 weeks

6:00 pm

were there dinosaurs here? was this area ever underwater? how could you tell?

6:00 pm

do you have assistants and do you like them?

6:00 pm

(probably somebody should stop me, lol)

6:00 pm

sue is volunteering I can tell

6:00 pm

my girlfriend and i run this group

6:00 pm

that's good carlee

6:00 pm

sue you have great ideas

6:02 pm

:-)

6:02 pm

don't know how actual kids would react to them but I have fun :-)

6:02 pm

i'll let you know next week :)

6:02 pm

Have you done star things - like picking out zodiac ones (not that I can do it!)

6:03 pm

do girl guides earn badges?

6:03 pm

yes...they earn badges.... its like girl scouts

6:03 pm

excellent idea lyn

6:03 pm

we have at other camps...yes lynxxx...but that depends on cloud cover...so is not always an option

6:03 pm

actually over long enough periods of time the stars won't even look the same - they move around

6:04 pm

will your activities help them earn a badge or two?

6:04 pm

( which is why i am the 13th zodiac sign )

6:04 pm

and the direction of the north pole makes a big circle in the sky that takes about 26,000 years to complete

6:04 pm

yes....will earn them parts of a badge

6:04 pm

well I'll be damned lol

6:04 pm

I always thought the north was constant

6:05 pm

they are going to be out there for 26,000 years !!! that's one looong weekend

6:05 pm

eventually too... wont the weather be reversed too...winter in dec for australia and vice versa?

6:06 pm

well, we mess with the calendar so that doesn't happen, carlee (leap seconds and whatnot so it stays pretty much the same)

6:07 pm

i thought i saw on a program on pbs once that in something like 150 000 years the seasons will be reversed

6:07 pm

although if we all keep messing with the climate maybe it will be winter in dec for Aust etc

6:08 pm

hmmm, let me look that up, carlee

6:11 pm

carlee how many girls and are they divided into groups?

6:11 pm

no, I was right - the precession affects the direction the North Pole points, but we define the calendar so that the earth is in the same place in its orbit around the sun a year later, so even if the length of time it takes it to orbit changes we would adjust the calendar accordingly

6:12 pm

Hi again...went to cook dinner...recipe called for milk...which we were out of...had to run to the store. What did I miss??!?

6:12 pm

6:12 pm

6:15 pm

6:16 pm

popped popcorn is my vote

6:16 pm

s'mom pouts, hoping car will toss her a slab of that lemon pie

6:16 pm

6:16 pm

6:38 pm

well..after sitting on a sl5 floor all day scrubbing grout out of cracks etc...and after having had to walk puppy a few miles last night to wear him ot as he had been cooped up all day...i am off to a tub full of epsom salts

6:39 pm

bon appetite car.ee

6:46 pm

back i am, for now. somehow i'm not sure i have the stamina to grind the rest of these 164 words out.

6:57 pm

hi, jes, 60 left for me...

6:57 pm

...I've been reading the story of your Alaskan trip - sounds absolutely wonderful! (except for the airline, of course...)

7:09 pm

it was, sue! everything was beautiful, and there were so MANY little critters :)

7:10 pm

makes me want to go (although on a different airline :-)

7:11 pm

ga 6/237 ??

7:11 pm

yeah, but there IS no other airline to alaska. options are fly alaska airlines, drive through canada (and roads to many areas in alaska are sketchy, try asking google for directions from wrangell to petersburg, for instance!), or take the ferry from bellingham up the coast.

7:12 pm

or, you know, private pilot.

7:12 pm

oh, well, it's a fantasy trip for me anyway, I might as well fantasize another airline :-)

7:12 pm

ga 6/27 that is

7:12 pm

hah! fair enough :)

7:13 pm

I did have friends who drove back in the 1970s; they bought a car (beater) at one and and junked it at the other

7:13 pm

or a cruise

7:13 pm

plural fo ga5/16 is the only one i have yet, sammysmom

7:13 pm

but i'm still working on the d's.

7:13 pm

pt of ga4/6, sammy

7:13 pm

ga6 - similar to the ga6/21, different last vowel

7:13 pm

yes, a cruise; but most of those are more like "drive by" touring instead of actually getting to spend much time anywhere.

7:14 pm

i wonder if u can start on one ship up..and take a second back down a week or 2 later?

7:14 pm

or past tense of ga4

7:14 pm

48 left!!

7:14 pm

i don't know if they'd let you do that, carlee. i think the ferry would be the way to go if you want something like that, and a lot less spendy than a cruise ship.

7:15 pm

dont have a ga 6/21 and there is not one on the list ??

7:15 pm

ga6/24, sammy

7:15 pm

though probably doesn't come with a hot tub and massage business...

7:15 pm

ok..am having a serious banoffee pie craving..... this is just..wrong..i have NOTHING even remotely close to the ingredients that one needs to make one

7:15 pm

banoffee?

7:16 pm

toffee/ banana / cream on a cookie crust

7:16 pm

what is banoffee

7:16 pm

google it... its to die for...

7:16 pm

sounds good

7:16 pm

huh. sounds interesting :)

7:16 pm

u take digestive cookies ( NOT graham cookies )..and make a crust...

7:17 pm

hi everyone, banofee sounds good except for the banana...

7:17 pm

u make toffee from sweetened condensed milk....and then sploosh that over top

7:17 pm

digestive cookies?

7:17 pm

just what I was thinkin g, lbd

7:18 pm

then u take dble cream ( denser then whipping cream...or in lieu of that....make whipped cream and add sour cream..then cut up ur bananas into that...

7:18 pm

they're a british thing, jes, slightly sweet graham cookies

7:18 pm

d's decimated! hah!

7:18 pm

spread over top...and then.u cna either take dark chocolate shavings...or i just sprinkle some instant coffee crystals over top

7:19 pm

just to make it "pretty" cant really taste the coffee

7:22 pm

lurking and multi-tasking here, but this sounds SO GOOD I had to comment. Think I'd use the chocolate digestives. Or do you think that would be too much?

7:23 pm

up to you...i like plain..i dont add chocolate anywhere

7:23 pm

try it once one way..then anothet ime another way :)

7:26 pm

I shall. :) LOLOL...just asked hubby if he heard of it. He hadn't. Until he reallized I was saying it wrong.

7:26 pm

I was not going to da 4/5 attempt the grid knowing I had very little time to babble. But I ma4/6 a decision to babble and that's what I did.I'd ra4/4 the grid not too easy and not too hard.It was not a re4/4 pain to do. Was able to cr 4/6 in 323 words in the short time I had to babble today. Now here is a ta 4/4 for me to re6/18. I couldn't believe my ea4/4 when I 1st heard I was accepted for the job that I have now. Guess all those classes I took in the pa 4/5 in gr4/7 school for my Ma 6/21's progr4/7 paid off. I was so el6/21, but I did not know whet5/12 or not to accept this job or not. I would have to make a life-al5/10ing decision to leave the only home I knew.I did accept the job and I have been a teacher for 13 years teaching all gr6/27 from Kindergarten to 7th gr 5/16 ESL. I believe I like 3rd gr7/40 the best. Often get teaching advice from my gr4/7 because she was a teacher too.She used to tell me I chose to join a gr5/14 profession. I have he 4/6ed her warnings though to not let politics&red ta 4/5 of education get to me.My fingers are getting cr 5/16s from typing alot. I'm going to go do something el4/4. Now I'm going to te 4/4 myself away from here and get off my re4/4 and go make a pl5/12 to eat.I'm going to sink my te 5/12 into hotdogs & ta5/10 tots. Then I will to pick a movie to watch.It'll either be The Co4/5 Miner's Daughter st4/4ring Sissy Spacek, or a Christian Sl6/18 movie or St5/10 Magnolias.Have not decided yet. I might be back la 5/10 or I might spend the re 4/4 of the night w/my dog. I have copied and pa 6/24 this story into my profile. Goodbye babblers!

8:09 pm
