6:13 am

it's 7:13 am here in beautiful coastal Virginia

6:14 am

jo7 is another word for carpentry here in the UK

6:14 am

where it is lunchtime - morning monkey, evening lyn

6:14 am

oh thanks Glanta!

6:15 am

We saw the UK weather on our news tonight...is it as cold where you are Glant?

6:16 am

we had snow the night before last but that melted yesterday - bit cold last night but bucketing down now - mixture of rain/sleet/hail

6:16 am

with sunny spell - need ot go to post office but waiting for the right moment LOL

6:16 am

sounds grim

6:17 am

it will no doubt be worse before it gets better again- take it as it comes and don;t stress over it

6:17 am

at least i didn;t need t scrape the ice off my wiondscreen this morning

6:18 am

right - suns out -off to the PO -bbl

6:18 am

good luck Glanta :)

6:19 am

I am exactly halfway thru this (nasty) grid... going for a morning walk/jog, BBL

6:19 am

bye LilM - enjoy

6:32 am

gm

6:33 am

morning kje...should you be awake yet?

6:34 am

yes... I have to be somewhere at 8

6:35 am

so can't be here long, but will babble while I get my first cup of coffee in

6:36 am

ahhh - I always leave a bit of babble to finish with my morning coffee - my quiet time before everyone else gets up

6:37 am

back form PO - raining again - and don;t think I've e4/7 seen so many words ending in ER in one place before LOL

6:38 am

yep... love being alone for a while in the morning

6:38 am

when do you move Glant...or has that already happened?

6:39 am

hopefully on 21-1-12

6:39 am

have cleared the loft and plan to clear/pack one room each saturday and sunday - today is the small spare bedroom

6:40 am

lots of yarn and craft stuff hiding under the bed LOL

6:40 am

Hope it all slots into place for you - bet you can't wait

6:40 am

How long have you been in this place?

6:40 am

i can't wait but i iwsh i could wave a magic wand and find myself in the 22-1-12 and already moved - just think of all the packing, unpacking, cleaning and moving word I'd miss!

6:41 am

i ahve lived here 11 years - the longest I've lived anywhere in my life - and although IO'm not a hoarder or collector I do seem to have accumulated lots in the last 11 years

6:43 am

Ever since my parents died have been clearing my 'stuff' regularly. Its so awful having to clear my parents belongings that I would hate that to happen to my kids

6:44 am

oh yes, that would be awful. I'm guessing that will be my job when my mum goes - don't suppose broithers will want to tackle it. Mind you my mum has had to clear out dad's things (he died in July) and she has had a major blitz of her own stuiff too so i guess she's thinking ahead, bless her

6:46 am

I'd say so...good on her

6:47 am

we are doing that now

6:47 am

clearing out?

6:47 am

my mom passed away Wednesday

6:48 am

oh I am so sorry to hear that kje

6:48 am

at least when my dad passed away in the summer it was a merciful release

6:48 am

oh kje...I am so sorry. Its just so awful to lose a parent

6:49 am

treasure you memories

6:49 am

my mom had been in hospice... I am glad it is over for her, though it still hurts

6:50 am

Of course it does.

6:50 am

I am finding - 4 months on - that little things pop up which remind me of dad - and sometimes that's a happy feeling, sometimes not - for instance I was at the works Xmas meal last night and we pulled crackers and my 'gift' was a tiny sinning top - and my dad adored spinning tops and we put a new one in his Xmas stocking every year so at least it was a happy reminder of dad at Xmas

6:51 am

that is sweet, glant

6:52 am

sometimes it's a song he loved, or a TV show - I hope you have nice reminders of happy times in the months to come kje

6:52 am

ty glant

6:52 am

it helps you forget the bad times when they were ill at the end of life

6:52 am

and brings back memories of good times together

6:53 am

I have many good memories... just need to get through the next couple of weks

6:53 am

weeks

6:53 am

i lost myself in sorting out all the funeral and legal stuff in the first 2 weeks

6:54 am

is you Dad still around kje...and do you have siblings?

6:54 am

it helped my mum for me to tkae that on and it helped me to get through

6:55 am

my dad is here, it has been hard on him - married 59 years

6:56 am

You sort of operate on remote control thinking back on the times with my Mum & Dad

6:56 am

I have 6 siblings and they are here too... nieces, nephews, etc... I am blessed

6:56 am

you'll need each other in the weeks to come

6:56 am

my dad wants me to talk for the family at the memorial service... that will not be fun

6:56 am

KJE, I'm very sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. Prayers out for you and your family.

6:57 am

ty molly

6:57 am

Very blessed. I hope your Dad comes through it all OK. I am sure you will do your Dad proud

6:58 am

i spoke at my dad's - i told everybody at the service that dad was still alive in our memories and recounted soem things about him which people would remember with fondness - keeping people up until the wee hours, telling jokes, big smiles and welcomes, stubbornness etc

6:58 am

and we played his favourite music rather than hymns

6:59 am

thanks all... I must get going... hagd

6:59 am

bye kje

6:59 am

bye kje

6:59 am

and good luck

7:07 am

8:17 am

morning, hoot :-)

8:17 am

I loved the St. Cinnamon rolls in Toronto area, have never found them out here in BC

8:17 am

morning Une

8:18 am

does anyone here know the amusing story of what happened at flip?

8:18 am

how re they diff from cinnabon flosey?

8:18 am

there were no more puzzles yes cos???

8:18 am

yes it was funny a lot of people were freaking out lol

8:18 am

It went bonkers!

8:18 am

I don't know cinnabon carleekat, St. Cinnamon was in a few of the malls and you could smell them as soon as you entered the mall

8:18 am

dr god fixed it promptly and it went back to normal around 10 minutes after flip time

8:19 am

chat log doesnt start till 12:30

8:20 am

Had to be later than that. I was going back and forth about every 10 min and didn't get it til about 12:40

8:20 am

AHH... cinnabon is the same..u walk in and is all you can smell..maybe i will make some today...

8:20 am

it was working for me at 11:15.... dr god said it would vary for people

8:20 am

( ok..12:32 is what the log said i thought..i already closed it )

8:21 am

maybe 12:38

8:21 am

hmmm..yes..i am going to make cinnabons...brb firing up the bread machine

8:21 am

it was corrected here by 12:15 central time (which happens here at 10:15)

8:21 am

but it was nice of him to fix it right away

8:22 am

It was nice to not have to see the cluing. Was peaceful.

8:23 am

30 to go and taking a break . . . byeeee . . . *poof*

8:23 am

Later Une

8:33 am

hello friends

8:33 am

getting paid to babble again! quiet saturday at the office, taking turns tutoring with another clinician....

8:33 am

Hoot, I have taken to keeping chat turned off first thing in the morning due to all the cluing. I don't mind when someone clues if one is asked for, but when clues just get thrown out for nothing, it takes the fun of finding words yourself away.

8:34 am

Morning Trif

yeah.

8:35 am

hey there molly! always so good to "see" you here!

8:35 am

Hi moll - it has become a whole separate bunch just trying to oyrdo each other.

8:35 am

outdo

8:35 am

Can anyone clue the fo7/44 please

8:36 am

Not there yet - sorry Norma

8:37 am

Ok hoot thanks

what exactly happened at the flip?

8:37 am

I think there was no puzzle, kaplan

8:37 am

fo4/7 + 3 more

The few times I have been on at the flip, I notice that people start cluing immediately

NO PUZZLE????????????????

8:38 am

Dr God said babble has run out of grids and he had to get the fairies making some more lol .... so the servers would be slow for a while

8:38 am

dr god posted something on FB about how the program had run out of puzzles....apparently this has happened before

8:38 am

Got it - Norma - think of the guy that runs a projet.

I don't go on at night if I wake up, having learned my lesson about the screen keeping me awake

8:38 am

They don't consider it cluing for some reason.

8:39 am

Thanks marpocky

8:39 am

ok...cinnabon dough in the bread machne and i have kettle cooked salt and vinegr chips...sheesh can u tell i am still on student time???

How can the program run out of puzzles? Doesn't it just shake the jar?

8:39 am

They don't consider it cluing???

8:39 am

Thanks hoot

Like the flip happens and 5 seconds later someone asks for a clue to the 10?

8:40 am

kaplan, I had posted that very question about 12 months ago, and was roundly sounded down by people INSISTING it could never happen....but numerically, it makes sense doesn't it?

8:40 am

There are only so many letter combinations.

8:40 am

it used to be that cluing was not allowed - at all - for like the first hour or something, but that has seemed to go out the window

Simple. You take the plastic jar, shake it...

8:41 am

exactly molly! you couldn't have a grid that was all k's for example, or only vowels, or only cons, or had 24 z's

Would anyone even notice if one day we had the same grid as 7 years ago?

8:41 am

I seem to remember running out of puzzles once before.

8:41 am

There was a big fight about cluing the first hour of the flip. The cluers won because those against that quit chatting then.

Everyone is on a different time zone.

8:41 am

when did that happen molls?

I have never really understood probability.

8:41 am

Between the clueing and the punning I usually ignore them

8:41 am

I wondered that as well, kaplan, but I figured that most people wouldn't, but somewhere out there is some completely anal person that would moan and want their whopping 14 bucks back

8:42 am

Don't know. Heard it through the grapevine.

you lot have it all wrong . it is not about the fun of finding words anymore. hoot , i do as well

8:42 am

( carlee feels like she is waking up from a dream..i didnt even know qadafi was dead )

Ignore punning?

OOps.

8:43 am

there are 236 million billion billion billion possible grids. now, most of those have very few words, but that's still a lot to start with

i mean i remember running out of grids

they dragged his body through the streets.

8:44 am

true, mocky, but a LOT of them are deselected right away due to the constraints I mentioned before

How come we have had Hawaiian goose 4 days in a row? How come we never get the word "serendipity?"

8:44 am

good morning everyone:)

8:45 am

i had no idea kaps...i've been in a news bubble...(self imposed)

8:45 am

ugh, kaplan, that is my youngest daughter's FAVORITE word at the moment, and she uses it at ev5 opportunity. And I do mean each and ev5 one!

8:45 am

morning crossy

8:45 am

good morning crossy!

8:45 am

any news to share with us, if I am not prying? you have been much on my mind....

8:46 am

Watch your tongue Kap - do you have any idea how many here cannot find the same word 3-4 days in a row?

8:46 am

i see the goose is back for day 4lol.it is going for the record

I will be back later.

8:46 am

please! I miss the same word so often I have started entering it at random, and am amazed at how often I find it

8:47 am

And it's in the grid today Trif!

8:47 am

news? from me trif? all is good i am so fit the doc said my oncology appts are just run of the mill 6 month visits now

8:47 am

8:47 am

8:48 am

I have learned that if I let my brain take over my fingers I can gets lots of words without thinking!

8:48 am

hi crossy!

8:48 am

howdy hoots;)

8:48 am

my big favorite is when I mistype something---and enable takes it!

8:48 am

about 1% of grids have 15 cons / 10 vowels. over 2 million billion billion billion. i don't think we can run out of grids

8:49 am

we ran out of grids this morning at the flip marpocky. It has happened more than once.

8:49 am

apparently i need to drive my kid

8:49 am

back in a bit

8:50 am

drive safely!

8:50 am

then there's something wrong with the grid generation process. either that or babble has been around a lot longer than i thought lol

8:50 am

Could be just me, but I think the "run out of grids" thing was just a joke. I think Dr. God just needed to reset the software.

8:50 am

Glad for the clean bill crossy!

8:50 am

what do crossy and a wet ne4 have in common?

8:51 am

Back later

9:02 am

crossy ...r u still drinking tropicana and otherboxed oj's....they say they squeeze fresh oj and then take oxygen out of it and keep it in vats for over 6 months and then put in chemical flavor pakets and orange rind pulp and sugars before sending it to the stores.

9:03 am

errr...maybe i will get the old orange squeezer out from under the cupboard....

9:03 am

Yep, juices are just sugary drinks. Real fruit is the way to go.

9:04 am

i have one of the old glass ones in a beautiful cucumber green,it is quite beautiful actually

9:04 am

just half the orange,push it on top and start rotating it

9:05 am

i think ...we have gotten more allergies from sulfites and other added chemicals in our processed foods and drinks.

9:05 am

,stran with kitchen pasta strainer and you have it

9:05 am

have the same green glass - but just mine as the orange sphere

9:05 am

true..the not from concentrated juices can be stored for a year and then are reconstituted..it isnt fresh at all. better to eat a real orange.

9:05 am

I'll take the pulp. I like to chew my OJ.

9:05 am

i used it last to squeze lemons for a lemon gelato sherbert

9:06 am

is frozen oj okay?

9:06 am

ok,the votes are in,real fresh juice on the crossy menu from here on out!

9:44 am

Lower right corner, Car. Just a face.

9:45 am

OK, I found ji4. Now for the ji6.

9:45 am

in fact ji4 sounds like a drink you have with tomic and a slice of lemon

9:45 am

OK..that is what I thought.

9:45 am

But I also LOVE a very broad spectrum of musical styles.....I have seen Judas Priest, Willie Nelson and YoYo ma

10:22 am

$ for it

10:23 am

lol car,that is a varied selection!

10:23 am

Willie Nelson is another unfavorite

10:23 am

That is just a sampling of the spectrum.

10:23 am

once in a while i like to hear ole willie singing through his nose

10:23 am

Don't let Car.ee fool you. I hear she is a White Zombie groupie.

10:23 am

Clapton I have seen 9 times

10:23 am

i like...lots of music..or rather did.. i rarely listen to anything since dxh's accident..no idea why...

10:24 am

94 down, nbt, nbs - but have come to a halt

10:24 am

Hmmm...wonder what the connection is there....

10:24 am

now.. clapton.. now you are talking

10:24 am

i was opposite carlee,mrs has no use for music and i was a audiophile..my batchelor pad had a 10,000 dollar music system but no t.v lol

10:25 am

love eric

10:25 am

i dont know car.ee well..maybe i do... music sets off memories...and i KNEW i didnt want constant reminders..so i stopped listening...and i just havent really started to again...

10:26 am

I am very jealous as Susan Tedeschi is someone I grew up with. She is married to Derek Trucks (nephew of the Allman Bros) and he has been touring with Clapton.

10:26 am

blaupundt set,klipsh speakers all quad at the time dual cassette direct drive liner tracking turntable..ahh those were the days...

10:26 am

Ru, Clapton's "One More Car, One More Rider" is probably one of the best taped concerts I've ever seen.

10:27 am

flawless vynal treated with white gloes...

10:27 am

love that one too molly

10:27 am

You need new memories! Music is so powerful in connecting events in our lives. It brings smiles and tears and keeps me connected to so many moments...good and bad.

10:27 am

10:36 am

I know a musician who is a recovering alcoholic and says he is glad he spent most of the 80's drunk, due to all the bad music that came out over those ten years.

10:36 am

10:36 am

thanks al

10:46 am

Hi everybody. How are you all today? I'm trying to move furniture so DH can get around here a bit better (2 canes are wider than using one

10:46 am

ty aloy

10:46 am

fe + **ch or poor, Have * m*rry Christmas

10:47 am

Nef! I am going to have to come strap you down if you don't stop over doing it. : )

10:47 am

have that one, ty -- looking for the fe 6/30

10:47 am

yw.. hi there Nef, get help with moving furniture, for the sake of your back

10:47 am

oh, the pl of the leg bone

10:48 am

thought that was femur

10:48 am

it is but the pl has a diff. vowel

10:49 am

I called for help and my son is coming over to move the heavier stuff, Molly. Honest, I'm trying to be good. (I want to switch out mattresses and put the one that's presently in the dining room into the guest room; and put that one and the twin bed downstairs now that dtr. is moved out)

10:49 am

ty - got it

10:49 am

yay, good ole Latin

10:50 am

Have your son do the mattress switching too Nef. That is what big strong sons are for.

10:50 am

*Wonders why there is a mattress in the dining room*

10:52 am

oh, he will, Molly. The mattress is in the dining room since the crew that moved my dtr's stuff out Wednesday only got it that far when they moved it into the house from the garage (basement was full of stuff moving out; and after they got over to her place and moved stuff in there; they didn't come back here.

10:54 am

hi again all!

10:54 am

hi there sue

10:55 am

how is your hubby healing, nef?

10:55 am

and hi, aloy!

10:55 am

Oh poor Nef. It's got to be hard to have your house that upside down during the holidays. Hope you get it all sorted out.

10:56 am

hello sue

10:57 am

wv, is that a dulcimer?

10:57 am

hi, wv!

10:58 am

yes, i am a lap dulcimer player and needed a picture of one for an aryticle i was doing so decided to use it for my icon for awhile

10:58 am

Did you ever hear of Karen Ashbrook?

11:00 am

fish me, I missed Juliet's lover... wherefore art thou? Thou art in the grid!

11:00 am

ty, al

11:02 am

h'mm.. lag time here.. yw, Pickle

11:02 am

break time -- off to the market :)

11:02 am

happy shopping, nan

11:03 am

bye, nan!

11:03 am

hi sue. DH is tucked safely in bed and not wanting to move much. He'd be a lot happier if we had a TV in there; but we don't so he has t sleep. He was feeling pretty smart last evening and was in the Lazy Boy chair; but he ended up finding out that he should be in bed (as the discharge orders said)

11:04 am

I was amazed! His surgeon called at 9 PM last night to check on him! How often does that happen (being a nurse and having had several surgeries myself; I know the answer is ra** to never!)

11:05 am

wow, that is impressive!! I have hardly ever had a surgeon call me at home to see how I was doing! (maybe once?)

11:05 am

My oral surgeon always called the next day to see how I was doing after a tooth extraction. That is the sign of a very good doctor.

11:05 am

that is really nice, Nef..

11:05 am

ALMOST makes me wonder, you know?

11:06 am

pickles - haven't heard of her but she is a hammered dulcimer player (which is different than the lap dulcimer) but we might have seen her at Augusta since that is close by and we go down for their concerts

11:06 am

ah, you remind me, Molly, once many years ago I ran a high fever after a wisdom tooth extraction - the dentist and my primary physician showed up together at my door to see how I was!!! (It was a very small, relatively isolated town, though)

11:06 am

Wonder what Nef?

11:07 am

speaking of dentists, I was saddened and shocked to read in the obits that my 38yr old dentist died suddenly on Sunday.. waaaaaaaay too young! A very nice man with a gentle dental touch

11:08 am

Karen is a good friend of mine from high school. She makes a living playing dulcimer, i though she played all kind but i might be wrong

11:08 am

just joking. I'd wanted to ad a wink; but sent my comment instead. I think he was worried about DH because of his MS and his back problems and he wanted to know DH wasn't falling or anything

11:09 am

btw, nef, you are in the grid!

11:09 am

so is eeyore!

11:10 am

my son is about 10-15 minutes away now; so once he gets here I need to go to work again (boss him around, actually)

11:10 am

that's it nef.. put him to work!

11:10 am

I noticed that both eeyore and I were here. Too bad we aren't words!

11:11 am

eeyore is too a word.. it is how we describe certain folks at work.

11:11 am

I'm hoping he's recruited his unemployed friend to help too.

11:11 am

eeyore would make a good pt total

11:11 am

lol Dorens

11:12 am

ah, yes, I found eeyore too!

11:12 am

but Enable says it isn't (as if Enable is the final word on words! ,humph!>

11:12 am

FW.. anyone need a clue before I hie me to the laundry room?

11:12 am

thanks but not yet aloy

11:13 am

11:53 am

was thinking of getting one,and my daughter pointed out that i have a macbook, android, and kindle already... what do i really need it for?

11:55 am

Its not bad gotta get used to keyboard

11:58 am

i will wait, i guess

11:58 am

How does it compare to the kindle?

11:59 am

Hate to rain on someones parade but Cos - there was a story on yahoo yesterday about the fire and it has big issues. Try to find it. Some really bad stuff there.

11:59 am

We dont have them here yet.... but am going to the US for christmas and new year and was thinking of getting one for the husband

11:59 am

my biggest issue between the two is that on my old kindle I use collections to manage content, and the fire doesn't yet have that in firmware. Hate that part. Otherwise I am loving it, especially for magazine subscriptions.

12:01 pm

We use our kindle for book collections too and for downoading english papers when we are abroad. But the fire sounds interesting. Might look up the piece form Yahoo. Thanks

12:02 pm

I expected issues when I ordered it as a 1st gen product, which I rarely do. Will be interesting to see what the January releases look like.

12:02 pm

12:33 pm

( sorry was on skype for a min)

12:33 pm

Whinging sounds like something you do with a Frisbee. : )

Go Griff!!

3:26 pm

o + meadow (ol 4/4)

3:27 pm

gotcha nan

3:27 pm

lol - have done some of that also, soodle

3:28 pm

Having said that, after hours of mooching, when you DO find 'the very thing', its a great feeling!

3:29 pm

on my way -- should do some baking

3:29 pm

I don't shop, I just send money. I am a cheater.

3:33 pm

Good Afternoon again. Our son has been here; moved furniture; fine tuned both of our new computers, set up the beds in the basement and told us both to behave. And now he's gone again. :-)

3:36 pm

r u behaving?

3:39 pm

Money is always very acceptable, Jes. And I, like Pickles am also wondering about Nef's behaviour.......

3:44 pm

(just caught up with the chat) Yes, Pickles, I'm certainly trying to behave today. :-) ONE of the 2 of us has to stay on track here

3:46 pm

I did hang somenew blinds; but that only was putting in a few screws. (I got some top down; bottom up white honeycomb shades I ordered after Thanksgiving; I got 4 for the price of 3 and am thrilled with how nice they look! :-)

3:47 pm

nef, sit down

3:47 pm

Nef, I think your son can sleep easy in his bed tonight knowing that you are behaving yourself!! :-)

3:47 pm

They really brighten up the family room and look so much better than the old stained rice paper roman shades

3:48 pm

I am sitting, Pickles! I'm playing Babble now!

3:49 pm

Nef, please stay sitting. You are too busy for your own good.

That nap I needed? Wonderful.

3:50 pm

Soodle; he drove 38 miles one way to help us today. And this is the first week in over a year we don't have our lovely grandson! (DH had knee surgery and I said I couldn't do it with DH ill too.)

nemes

emen

Aand here I am in the PB.

well, just almost anyway.

3:51 pm

*waves to Kaplan at the PB*

3:51 pm

no, Kap; you aren't they aren't WORDS

3:52 pm

Well done, son of Nef, and speedy recovery to husband of Nef with his dodgy knee.

Isn't there a penalty for typing in the wrong place?

3:52 pm

maybe the cabana at the PB? for semi-penalty

3:52 pm

only if they are WORDS (that everyone has) ;-)

I should at least be on probation.

3:52 pm

Kap wants to be penalized.

3:53 pm

Thanks, Soodle. I'll let them bothknow!

3:53 pm

you should have been on probabtion BEFORE you started..lol

thanks, ruru.

3:53 pm

hi kap, ruru :)

3:53 pm

oh, go ahead, Kap. I think the PB is well-stocked with Christmas/ Holiday goodies

YAY!

3:54 pm

hi jes.

3:54 pm

I heard a song on the radio which made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up... http://tinyurl.com/83qacgt. It really is worth a listen....

3:54 pm

<---Notices that Nef ignored my "stay sitting down" comment

3:55 pm

Selective deafness, Molls. We all suffer from it!

3:56 pm

I'm sitting, Molly! I can't play Babble standing up! (of course I can babble in any position, but that just my mouth . Typing is another story)

never mind- just typing in the wrong box again.

3:58 pm

hey, jes. Is that the starving horse? He sure looks thin! How is his general health?

Imagine me and you and you and me

4:00 pm

Soodle, I've heard that Jerry Lynch song before. It makes you realize that we have people in tough places at Christmas and it speaks of faith, big time.

no matter how they toss the dice, it had to be

4:01 pm

Its just such a lovely song... the clarity of his voice, the sentiments, the whole thing... (my kidneys are very close to my eyes, so I whinge frequently...)

4:01 pm

it's beautiful, Soodle. I've heard about this happening; but didn't know there was a song about it

OK, I'll switch. Have yourself a merry little Christmas.

I will listen now.

4:04 pm

The eye leaking is an Irish thing Soodle. We are obliged to put out the liquid we put in. Bíodh amhlaidh.

4:04 pm

And tragically, almost 100 years later, it still rings true. (Enough of the maudlin Soodle, for feck's sake...)

4:05 pm

Maith an cailín, Molls :-)

4:07 pm

DH is up now; and he's using a walker instead of the 2 canes he insisted on this AM. I told him to come out to hear this song (since he swears he is all slept out now!)

4:08 pm

Oh Nef.... I hope he enjoys it, and isn't disappoined....

it is lovely.

4:10 pm

Soodle, how did Himself enjoy his King For A Day breakfast?

4:12 pm

He came in like a hurricane, Molly, devoured all round him - (breakfast-wise), took himself off to bed for the day, gave me 3 big bags of washing, with instructions not to shrink anything, ate a HUGE dinner, and is now off in the pub! Toujours la meme chose!

4:13 pm

Soodle, DH was in the Navy and he is "enjoying" the song but is saddened by the reality of it too.

4:13 pm

last fe6?

4:14 pm

Wow, Soodle! I don't know whohe is; but what a description!

4:14 pm

Sorry, Shirl, I haven't listed yet

4:14 pm

I'm sorry...gave you three big bags of washing with instructions not to shrink anything??? While he slept for the day???

4:15 pm

fe6/30 is latin plural of leg bone

4:15 pm

have that one, need the last fe 6

4:15 pm

Its the son and heir, Nef. 21 years old, living away from home for the past two years and home now for 2 weeks. The tranquility of Chez Soodle is upscuttled. But I am delighted to have him home :-)

4:17 pm

Yes yes yes Molls. I know. But, what can I say? I'm an Irish Mammy!!

4:18 pm

fe6 fe & ma**** is of the ocean

4:18 pm

Nef... your DH may or may not like this song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFCekeo STwg

4:18 pm

have that one too, there's another fe6 i'm missing

4:19 pm

Okay Soodle, but don't blame me when your future daughter-in-law gives you the evil eye.

4:20 pm

<---Would levitate, speak in tongues and have fire spouting from my head if any son of mine instructed me thus

4:20 pm

my husband says he wants my atention later

4:20 pm

the second last fe6 is a latin plural on the last fe5.16

Kinehora.

4:20 pm

Molly, if he was a stay-at-home son, he would be well versed in the wonders of the washing machine. But, truth be told... I'm sorta happy to be doing 'stuff' for him. I don't get the chance very often...

4:21 pm

thx lynxx! that's the one i was missing

4:22 pm

Yay Lynn - thank you!

4:22 pm

Lynn, have you heard this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFCekeo STwg

4:23 pm

of course!

4:24 pm

Lovely song!

4:25 pm

very sad though, not to be listened to with a few under your belt

4:25 pm

Soodle, DH knows that song quite well and enjoys it. Re: your son coming home and ordering you about; kids do that at a certain age, and moms seem to enjoy doing it at times. Then again; it's not nice of him to boss you around!

4:28 pm

Nah, Nef... he wasn't ordering anybody. He ironed his own jeans and shirt prior to outing and abouting this evening. And he cooked us dinner! He is a good kid.

4:29 pm

He fixed supper? Good for you then!

4:30 pm

Okay.. last song of the evening... (not a dry eye in the house after this one..) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntt3wy- L8Ok

4:31 pm

Gads, pours Soodle a shot of the upbeat, happy Christmas cheer.

4:32 pm

Well seeing it is the right season - I offer up this one Haz gave us last year - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXh7JR9 oKVE

4:33 pm

Soodle you must be in a meloncholy mood tonight

4:34 pm

I love that one Lynx. The spontaneous stuff in public is very cool.

4:36 pm

certainly not 'spontaneous' but the sound echoing around makes every hair on my neck stand up - awesome

4:36 pm

I got my (84 yr old) Dad an IPod for Christmas, and I spent the day trawling through Youtube for appropriate songs for him. I' m a bit frazzled........ Any ideas what an 84 yr old might like to listen to, please, put your suggestions on a $20 note and send them to me....

4:36 pm

There was a flash mob at one of the local law schools here in the past few weeks

4:36 pm

any big band music, soodle.

4:37 pm

hi everyone!

4:37 pm

soodle - who was the young (30s) woman who died a few years ago...did jazz ...older men love her

Excellent idea, Lynn.... toddling off to youtube right now.

4:42 pm

a type of wheat?...hmmm, thinking

4:42 pm

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbejNNC Tr7k (Just to prove Soodle isn't TOO maudlin....)

4:42 pm

bottom o beside or4/4?

I would like to name a child Maude Lynn.

4:43 pm

soodle-maybe ette james or joe johnson or lionel hampton orstan kenton-these are some of my favorites from that time

4:43 pm

got it! ty scribe!

4:43 pm

lol Kap

4:43 pm

great, lbd-was just about to type 'bread' instead of wheat-

4:45 pm

bottom o--or6/24 is almost spelled like the or word for being hard to get along with-just change the 'n' to another consonant

4:45 pm

ty scribe!

4:46 pm

any lawyers on right now

4:46 pm

peggy lee, my father's fave

4:46 pm

4:47 pm

Oh my goodness... Its Ruby!!!! (((((((Huggles and snuggles)))))

4:48 pm

hi ruby!

4:48 pm

sleepy, dopy Ruby, was hoping that soodles wouldlbe here as I needed some Irish good cheer

4:48 pm

4:48 pm

4:48 pm

4:48 pm

4:48 pm

I'm never here this late -- what a lovely group

4:48 pm

wow, ruby.. what time is it there

4:48 pm

She wished for Irish cheer.. and here is Irish cheer... following hiccups!!

4:49 pm

2300 or so, no?

4:49 pm

we had our first bad weather and the house is freezing

4:49 pm

midnight

4:49 pm

Good luck Ruby. Soodle is dishing out teary eyed stuff this evening.

4:49 pm

go to bed where it is warm!

4:50 pm

oh no, wrong night then. Found out too many sad stories about old friends

4:50 pm

(((Ruby)))

4:51 pm

<also lives in a freezing house, but then discovered the marvels of electric blankets. havent looked back...

4:51 pm

wearing many layer of clothes, look like the Michelin man

4:51 pm

tracked down a dear old friend who worked with me for years but had disappeared. Unfortunately, for the worst reason!

4:51 pm

ha!... been there... night without heat in Switzerland in January. I slpet in several layers of clothes, my wool coat, under down

4:51 pm

on the couch with you Ruby with a dog on either side

4:52 pm

Aw, sorry to hear that Rubes. You OK?

4:52 pm

it would be sweet with the dogs but they're too big and much too stinky

4:53 pm

the other night I was cuddling Ruby on the floor and fell asleep with my head on her

4:53 pm

I might put up with stink for warmth

4:53 pm

Smart move Ruby.

4:53 pm

hmmm, must consider that trade off

4:53 pm

have you considered bathing th edogs?

4:54 pm

<---Would rather be cold than sleep or cuddle with stinky animals.

4:54 pm

tada!! finito!

4:54 pm

just like a man to be logical ; )

4:54 pm

WOOHOO LBD!!!

4:54 pm

Congrats Dawg!!

4:54 pm

I'm afraid that Ruby is too old to be traumatized by the trip to a groomer and Max is too crazy (autistic and extremely shy)

4:54 pm

up north when it gets really really cold, we call it a three dog night!

4:54 pm

My (soon to be disinherited) daughter took a photograph of my asleep last night. She didn't get my best side............

4:54 pm

is that where the rock group name came from? never knew that

4:55 pm

Hence, the band name of the 70's

4:55 pm

try brushing baking soda thru their fur. it helps take out dirt and stink.

4:55 pm

i was just wondering that too ruby

4:55 pm

great idea, ibd, will do it tomorrow

4:55 pm

yup, that's how they got the name of the band.

4:55 pm

maybe there's a dry shampoo for dogs

4:56 pm

I have 42 left and seem to have found a wall

4:56 pm

If I had a daughter that took a picture of me asleep, her butt would be out back in a tent tonight.

4:56 pm

time to list then, kje

4:56 pm

I bet dry shampoo IS baking soda

4:56 pm

I hit the wall hours ago, but just wanted to see if any friends were here. What a pleasure to see you all!!!!

4:56 pm

there are dry shampoo for dogs, but they can be expensive and not always as effective.

4:56 pm

it is great to see you when I am awake, ruby!

4:57 pm

(and not still groggy from waking at 0300)

4:57 pm

you're probably right, lynxx, but this way they can charge more

4:57 pm

OI, kje! why so early?

4:57 pm

I am an early riser

4:58 pm

sometimes too early

4:58 pm

thus why I am asleep by 8

4:58 pm

Agreed Molls, but I have to tread carefully, in case the pic ends up on youtube. Soodle soozing would probably go viral, for all the wrong reasons

4:58 pm

Dry shampoo is a great "in between". Nothing beats soap and warm water.

4:58 pm

that's crazy early! I did that for the bookstore when we had to be at work by 5am.

4:58 pm

there are so many covers on the bed that a photo of me would look like a small lump under a pile of stuff

4:58 pm

but how do you dry a wet and tangled dog when it's freezing out

4:59 pm

es?

4:59 pm

LOL Rubes

4:59 pm

Oh, that WAS you I saw on YouTube earlier Soodle. Draw up the dis-inheritance papers.

4:59 pm

I think the baking soda is a brilliant idea -

4:59 pm

the last time I washed her (it was a warm day), she headed straight for the onlymuddy place in the garden afterward

4:59 pm

es + vowel + tange****, small tasty orane

4:59 pm

me, too, I will certainly try it

4:59 pm

ty!

5:00 pm

Can you not put a dog in a closed up room after bathing to keep them from mud hopping?

5:00 pm

i used baking soda on my short haired dogs. long haired dogs takes some massaging to get to their skin and a lot of brushing.

5:00 pm

has anyone ever heard of crates around here?

5:01 pm

Molly, do you know Ruby? Ruby, do you know Molly?

5:01 pm

Thank you Ru

5:01 pm

5:01 pm

5:01 pm

we bathe our dogs every week

5:01 pm

Ruby...that is a 'recipe' for you

5:01 pm

last ey?

5:02 pm

when we lived in Miami, we had a groomer who picked up the dog in an airconditioned van every other week.

5:02 pm

i've never crated either

5:02 pm

Here it's twice as expensive, no van, no experience with chows, altogether useless

5:02 pm

yearly

5:02 pm

kje - use the 3rd letter again

5:03 pm

last time we took her, the groomer cut all the fur off her tail rather than trying to curry it out

5:03 pm

5:04 pm

hi Jess

5:04 pm

Daisy the untrainable dog is going to obedience classes on December 29th. I fear she will be in the remedial class......

5:05 pm

5:07 pm

Oh, LBD.... obedience school dropout..... I fear thats my Daisy. :-(

5:08 pm

Loveable, but brainless.

5:08 pm

he probably could have gone to remedial, but hubz didn't have the time. He really wasn't that bad, he'd listen to me...i fed him!

5:09 pm

yeah, brainless, biggest chicken on the block! my little min pin would corner him and just bully him.

5:10 pm

mo6?

5:10 pm

Ah yes. the feeder does commamd some sort of influece. Poor old Daisy is challenged in the grey-matter department.

5:11 pm

like miss ohara mo6

5:11 pm

mo6 sounds like an irish girls name - uses double vowel

5:11 pm

ty, lynxxxxxxx

5:12 pm

i also spent a few nights with him on the floor when he had parvo. nothing like bonding when someone is sick. Hubz was in the hospital having his appendix removed

5:13 pm

5:13 pm

Am all emotioned out. Heading off to bed now. Night all, see you all soon. X

5:13 pm

6:24 pm

6:25 pm

hey doren!

6:26 pm

Is that pic you and the princess making a gingerbread house?

6:26 pm

hi stid.. doing lots of subbing? my experience is that there are always need for subs in december... teachers take off a day to shop, it seems. and ye the princess and I did that on thursday

6:27 pm

It is very therapeutic for me, bugs, and we make some pretty good music too :-)

6:27 pm

I am doing a lot more this month than in the last two -- and getting a reputation for being tough and at least doing my best to get through the teacher's lessons (instead of just telling stories or showing movies)

6:28 pm

hi all..back again

6:28 pm

i took the day off cause jeremy is abroad and liz had to take a 6 am flight to dc. so i drove up wednesday after school. we built the house in the morning, then i took her to school, played with levi. picked her up, we decorated the house (and the kids ate soooo much candy). then liz came home while i was making dinner.. took a few shots of the finishing touches and i skidaddled. was very tired friday!

6:28 pm

hi carlee!

6:29 pm

hi sue... dorens...stiddy :)

6:29 pm

you will get more and more work as the news spreads about what kind of a sub you are stid. it is a nice way to get new ideas for lessons

6:29 pm

yes stid, you will score points with teachers for trying to follow their lessons. hi carlee and sue and bug

6:29 pm

*triple-twisting quadruple backflip with sprinkles on top*

6:29 pm

Passing out choclits sprinkling choclits all around :)

6:30 pm

I am really appreciating the chance to learn from teachers with more experience, and to see how classrooms are set up. I am getting better at establishing parameters from the beginning and keeping the kids on task, too.

6:30 pm

carlee have you had finals yet?

6:30 pm

finals are DONE dorens...I am free from school for 3 weeks

6:30 pm

Nice work Gram Dorens. : )

6:30 pm

6:30 pm

hoooray for carlee... are pompoms in order?

6:30 pm

I bet you were tired on Thursday, Doren -- last week I subbed in a preschool on Thursday, and was very grateful for the assistant in the room (who took on the teacher role while I became assistant)... I was SO tired!

6:31 pm

mmmmm. *LOVING rumballs!*

6:31 pm

thanks molly. first time i've ever done one. quite an experience

6:31 pm

6:32 pm

6:32 pm

carlee, I hope you will enjoy your well-earned time off!

6:33 pm

6:33 pm

the r is a 4,5 common root

6:33 pm

I would sub for that teacher again, Doren -- in fact, the assistant asked the scheduling secretary to put me on top of the list because she and I worked so well together!

6:33 pm

yep. Thanks Bugs and Doren

6:33 pm

i am already stiddy....did some much needed cleaning and sorting around here today...am about to go dive in brain dead reading...and i baked cinnabons and made a lovely chicken and potato dinner with wild rice and peas :)

6:34 pm

carlee doesn't know how to just sit around and be lazy... cinnabons?? mmm

6:34 pm

I am nibbling on a snickerdoodle I got myself at the gluten free store today, it's a real treat, and since there is only the one (granted it's large) I am less likely to keep adding "one more" to my plate! LOL

6:35 pm

oh YES i do dorens... i am either running at 100 or at a dead stop couch potato... my goal this holiday is to not fall into the couch potato routine...( VERY easy for me)...

6:35 pm

i think you deserve a day or two of it carlee

6:35 pm

i have never had a snickerdoodle..what is a snickerdoodle?

6:35 pm

okay, Bugs, do you mean common root as in what feeds a plant, or common root as in part of a word?

6:36 pm

it's a sugar cookie, with a cinnamon-sugar "crust" formed by rolling the ball of dough in cinnamon sugar before baking. Very yummy, and very sugary.

11:36 pm

The older camera I had was pretty good with sound and video, the newer one, not so good. we had the newer one, but Tom didn't use it to record much.

11:50 pm

Kermit the Frog has turned into Ray Liotta in my profile. It is his 57th birthday tomorrow. I believe he is a great actor.

11:51 pm

I don't know that actor, Min -- I see he was in Goodfellas (which I never saw).

11:52 pm

what was he in

11:52 pm

oh, good fellas... yep, time to go to bed

11:53 pm

oh, yes... he looks familiar... usually plays bad guys

11:53 pm

I didn't care for GoodFellas. Don't like gangster movies. My favorite Ray Liotta movies are Corrina Corrina and Domick and Eugene. I also like Article 99. All not well known films.

11:53 pm

FORTY!!!

11:53 pm

that's a good finish for me today. *proud mama look*

11:53 pm

woooohoooo stid!!!
