hey ruby, how are you, hun?
hello granny; snow nd cold weather bring back the aches and pains but at least it's very beautiful and Christmas-y!
how are you feeling?
i bet, ruby, not much chance of a white chrissy here...LOL
I'll quickly pack some into a Fedex container
ruby, still having some bad days....but on the whole much better.
I hope that the New Year brings you no more pain and many sunny days!!!!
thanx ruby, may i wish you a wonderful christmas without offending.
offending? not possible. Christmas is just a little bit sad around here this year, but it's usually a very happy time for us
may God grant you and yours peace, love, and some happiness at this time.
{{grannyrose}}
OMG, I found the 9 by myself! and I thought it was a French word (or9)
yay, ruby, well done
now just need the other 164! lol
however, it's nice just to come in to say hello to grannyr!
so good to talk to you, also, ruby....
do you have big plans and lots of cooking scheduled? It must be strange to have Christmas in wasrm weather....
not this year, ruby, all 6 kids have something else to do...and mother mac is going to her daughter's for the day...so for once, himself and i are going to be alone, just the two of us...strangely enough, am looking forward to it.
how nice, not being a kitchen slave
what are you cooking?
when it's just us, I make a capon with the trimmings
I'm baaack and Merry Chrissie to all, all pressies are wrapped and under the tree or to my other g/kids in Tasmania, money under the tree. Food organised etc etc. we are celebrating on Saturday with the closest g/kids, and me an hubby will just vege out Chrissie Day
not even cooking...buying a BBQ chicken from the supermarket, and 3 tubs of different salads. himself is making the pudding. so....i'm gonna sit back and let it all hang out. ;)
you Aussies have it all right! I'm much less well organized
hey diz
hey Granny, we seem to have it down pat...nice and quiet on Sunday. Hubby has bought a couple of bottles of 'gawd only knows what' some champagne stuff, and we'll have fresh prawns and dips to see us thro
yup, the only way, diz. however boxing day is another kettle of fish
hey Ruby, these days I seem to care less, but if any g/kids around I go the whole lot, cook up a feast the day before and have salads etc for the day. That way I am not stuck in the kitchen cooking.
if only.... husband has 5 grandchildren, none of whom he knows, and 2 grandkids, in whom he has no interest.
I just have my wonderful son (and DIL) but they're in TX and have no kids.
they were supposed to come for Christmans, but my boy took a new job a month ago, so no holiday for him!
has anyone tried the 'mango fruitcake'? my 85 yr ol mum makes it for me every year since she discovered the recipe...sooo much nicer than original fruitcake....and it freezzes well
uh oh, husband is back with groceries. If I don't see you again before, have a wonderful, joyous, Christmas down under!
awww Ruby, that is so sad, any chance of a connection with the g/kids
as i said, boxing day is the absolute reverse. the whole 24 peeps on my side of the family gather together, we have a wow of a time, picnic in a park, plenty of ro4 for the kids of all ages stages. it's the best day ever.
hmmm, diz, wanna send the recipe to me, email addy in my profile, sounds yummy.
LOL Granny, it reminds me of our times at Manly NSW, seems to be a more central meeting place for the family....we try and get there about twice a year....last time we had 15 outa my mums 20 great gran/kids.....bloody good effort
granny, will do when I find the recipe xx
ah, thanx, diz
okay, fireworks here. happy babbling to all. dinner nearly ready, see you at the flip. ((((hugs ))))))
wtg granny
Happy Hollidays everyone! May all your babbling be bright as you are.
Anyone here?
Well, good day to all lurkers.
hello scrbbler, I think I'm here
or even scrabbler*
It seems like you are here. Good day to you, Ruby.
I may be.... and the queen's dog re***s
do you remember or6/24 boxes?
TY for the clue. No, don't know or6.
gm kidz
you are too young, scrabs
bonjour jean
Hey Jean! How is our Chicago girl doing?
how cold is it in Chicago?
well enuf :-) how's you?
Chicago has been weird, freezing one day and 40-50 the next
when I was a runner, Cicago was the only place I couldn't run in winter
some people are crazy enuf to do it
but if it had good weather, EVERYONE would live there because it's the greatest!
it is a beautiful city that's for sure
Never been there.
come on over you can stay with me
(don't come in winter)
Maybe someday.
I spent a wonderful 4 months there when I was a young bride (eons ago), at the Newberry Library
open invitation
{{jean}}
that is so sweet
My vacations = hiking, kayaking, etc.
you too
I would do almost anything to get away from here for at least a few days
scrabs, the athlete
you can kayak here
and hike
I am active and like to be outdoors in nature.
no mountains tho, just woods and dales
come with me to madagascar then
Are you going there?
scrabs, one of my oldest, dearest friends, with whom I've lost touch, lived in your region, had a biz called "Ms Fixit", named Irene Szabo. Slim change but, who knows?
chance, not change
I am planning to, my birthday present to myself
Buffalo area?
I will be fifty-ten in April
south of Genessee
in the country
One of my college patients has spent the last 2 summers in Madagascar. He told me a lot about the country.
fifty-ten sounds better than sixy-ten!
Yes, Jean.
what was he dong there?
um, doing
Research--politics/anthropology.
It is an interesting island--unique animals and plants.
it's #1 on my bucket list
great lizards! rambutans?
rambutans are in Asia, don't know about Madagascar
Darn, my phone has no dial tone and testing via Verizon on-line shows that the problem is in my house. Ugh. That means I need to make an appt to be here to let a repairman in. PIA.
lemurs are the big draw in the fauna
I've only discovered them, here !!!!, the last month. They're like lichees on steroids
yes, great fruit
I loved dragon fruit when I was in asia
they are weird-looking (like dragon fruit) but delish
I've only been in Japan, no place else in Asia
china, vietnam (and briefly bangkok)
So, the landline doesn't work and my computer cannot connect with ofc's VPN router. Not terrible problems but annoying to resolve.
I was just in china 2 months ago, my son got married
poor scrabs! computer problems are a ba** to my life
So he lives there?
he, has for 4+ years
Yes, Ruby. I cannot connect to the ofc so cannot do electronic charting from home which means I am getting behind.
What does he do?
drugs and prostitution
oh, ok, so he teaches English
hahah, jean
sorry, I just say what the voices tell me
He could make more money with drugs and prostitution.
But teaching is legal.
<-- loves the voices!
there would be a lot of competition in the prostitution, not sure about the drugs
Alright, I must quickly get ready and head to the factory.
just generics
I talk with my voices.
when I checked into my first hotel there was a slew of business cards that had been slipped under the door from the local ladies
I thought it was a riot
I wish I could chat more. Enjoy the day, ladies.
that is a hoot, jean, like take-out menus in NYC
take good care scrabs
{{scrabs}}
yes, I saved them
and now, blessed lie-down time, and maybe the newspaper will arrive (one can always hope with the poopy French post)
can't be any worse than the US Mail lately
Merry Christmas Ruby

Not so awful, Pickles. There's always goodies in the penalty box.
still have three blank tiles myself...
Hi sue, for a grid with 233 words, this one doesn't flow
I still need to find the 9 and 10
somebody clued a 9 recently which is why I have one
me too cyber
stats for the 9, please, sue?
The 10 starts with Co. I don't have it yet.
good morning everyone,crossy has some soft boiled eggs,toast soldiers and a bowl of mixed fresh fruit in light syrup in the pb for those who have not had breffast yet;)
Hiya, Crossy!
howdy judi
good morning crossy, on my way for breakfast
ty, crossy
hi crossy! *gladly accepts breakfast even though she has no idea what a toast soldier is*
was wondering myself
ahh just from when we were kids suze! mum would cut the toast into finger lengths so we could dip them in the soft boild eggs
ah :-)
actually had to go to the reuse centre here to get half decent egss cups that were not just cheap plastic crap,got a set of six glass ones in cobalt blue,cucumber green and sunny yellow with dancing chickens embossed on the side;))
sue -- stats for the 9, please?
re9/66
i never could make a soft boil egg just right
mmm -- was afraid of that!
has to be dippable but not "snotty"
oh sure, enable doesn't know about noogies.
side noogies are the best
so, do I need a 7/36 to do again?
*ears perk* Noogies?
yessssss!
noogies, we gave noogies as a child
were they invented on SNL?
see, you all know what noogies are and have for years and yet it's not in the dictionary!
hve never heard of noogies -- what are they?
enable is a mystery wrapped in an enigna;(
yet it knows what campi means
I don't think Crossy's noogies are the same as our noogies.
no, you need a 6/18, to rip again, nan
I found it sue
yay nan!
what are noogies?????
and I am down to 3 blank tiles :-P
yaa got the 9 ty suze!
Our noogies were/are: grab someone in a head lock and then rub the top of their head with your knuckles.
oh -- a new one for me
those are the ones I know, judi :-)
that is them,side noogies was just a painful way across the side of the head and the ear
is a noogie worse than a wedgie?
I always thought it was just a New York City thing
Preferable to a wedgie any day.

or murder ball..good lord we were violent..now all the kids can do is stand still and play with nerf toys
Pffth. Someone would have a kid arrested if they played the rough and tumble games we used to play.
when my kid was in public school they were not allowed to throw snow balls..lol when were were kids,not only was it a national past time,we used to dip them in water till they got the consistancy of a billiard ball before launching them
ok, I am shamelessly begging for stats for the rightmost e

congrats, vanilla!
ahh just managed to get to 1030 in the rankings and now I'll be bush for the next four days
should be the opposite, aloy
what I thought, kje
greyed 4th column!!
<---- thinks aloy is losing it
no,i do not aloy
lol, thinks kje is right
hopefull your internal power hook up is not about to go on vacation...
*Popping up* - Aloy, it is likely your power settings. You can set them to different brightnesses when plugged in or on battery. :) *popping out*
we will be on the Bibbelmum track, a walk trail for four days, be lucky to see three people a day
yes,there should be power management settings
ah, that is probably it, Uni.. ty
so be good all you city slickers
ooh.. and where is that trail, vanilla?
lol,we stay far,far away from the city here in vacation land..they come to us
enjoy, vanilla... and stay safe
have a wonderful walk-about, Vanilla
in West Australia starts close here but we're doing a stretch starting about 100 miles from here and waling some 25 miles a day
25 miles a day is a hard walk
wonderful.. and quite a workout too!
can't beat it
you average 4 miles per hour at a good pace
although a bit warm this time of year i prefer the spring when the flowers are out
vanillia,ever read "the long walk" by stephen king?
i highly reccomend it right before you start out lol
havent read it but will look for it in the library
it is in his bachman collections
hi, all I am stuck on the re5/14 that follows thr re meaning to go back on a promise. cles, please?

i'm sending thoughts of baked goods over
i can smell the mexican wedding cookies ....
thoughts don't do much for me, frankly (though they're far less fattening than the real thing)
oooh food talk, i can vicariously enjoy
most of the cookies are for naabs and my niece and nevvie, thx goodness
otherwise i'd be calorically over as well

you have to ___ and ____ again to get the re 5/14
got it...thanks
brain dead today
Which re5/14?
Apparently brane dead too - it won't accept brane!
I think Strider was going for if at first you don't succeed ____ ____ again
hi all
Hi JMC
it was such a quiet chog i wandered off to fb
HELLO!
hi kap
:)
if who's at first, what's on second?
that is that's right strider
on first
... I dunno ... he's at third
*Makes noise to overcome the quiet*
so someone knows ollie and stan
haha now things are cooking
arrrrrrrggggghhhhh
*hangs head in shame*
that's all right. I put a word in the chat earlier.
well we all do that -- apparently i am the only one who can get empty chog comments in :-((
but thanks for the encouragement
I get an error pop up if I try to hit ENTER without a comment
that is why i can't understand how i do this--i usually get an error pop up too but every once in a while it runs amok
what a good word amok is amok amok amok
did you see the jeopardy winner once got 285 points for the word seltzers in scrabble on fb?
Jeopardy geeks!
you got to love them
eek!!!
must have been a triple word tile
How is it possible to get 285 points for that word, even on a triple score?
well there are points for using all your tiles too
maybe i have the number wrong but it was something over 200
Yeah, but you only get those once, not three times.
... does the z show up on a triple letter score between the two triple word scores? ... gets you lots of points
now i will have to get out my scrabble board and figure it out
hmmmm looks like you could hit two triple word boxes at once
does that make it 6 times?
seltzer is 19 points, using all tiles is 50
... yeah ... if someone plays a tile onto the outer row or column ... you can string your seven letters to fill in two triple words ... and get a triple letter too
Yeah but it still doesn't add up and there are no triple letter boxes in between triple word scores
seltzers -- plural
... isn't there one about four letters from the corner ... or is that a double letter?
the T ends up in the double letter box
So 20 points. If the z is on a double 30 points x 3 =90 x2 = 180 + 50 = 230
... and with two triple words you multiply by 9
By 9? Two triple words twice?
... play from a corner all the way to the middle column ... if someone gets careless and plays a single tile in the outside row
18 X 9 + 50 = 212 so i must have reported the amount wrong originally --- still
http://www.thekatespanos.com/scrabble- score-calculator/
alright now that we have established that i am an unreliable reporter i am going to go read a magazine before i have to cook my sister's birthday dinner
where are you getting 18? should be 27
May I please have a clue for be5-18 the 1st. Thanks
27 x 9 + 50 = 293
... yes ... half way ... and must feed a poor starving child myself ... a bientot
How do you get 27?
double letter Z
plus 7 more for the SELTERS part
May I please have a clue for ar7-36? Thanks
the z is 10 and all other the letters are worth 1 point except the t gets a second point so that makes 18
oh i c i put the word on wrong on the board you are right marp--293 points!
wow!
okay my magazine is calling bbl
of course 293 is pathetic compared to the 1700+ you can get from oxyphenbutazone or 2000+ from sesquioxidizing
granted, they require some pretty deliberate setups
gapeach, i just got the ar7/36. it's someone like a judge
Thanks so much marpocky
Hard to imagine any decent Scrabble player setting up those kinds of words.
hi again all!
hello all. any clue please for the re5/14s? I am missing the ones between rei to rule and the one about tying again
I have one that ends with ***ht (not day)
thnx sue - that's the one
Hi uusue2 I just found that one. now what is the other one?
sorry, don't have the other one!
There is one that means to attempt again
oh, I do have that one but it's after what I have to keep doing to my shoelaces
that is further down the list. there are two 5/14s next to each other
They both end in sounds like a sow, different middle consonants
ah, got it, thanks molly!
(was easier once I got past "oink")
Thank you MollyL - fireworks here at last smart clue too.
Sorry, sounds like another word for sow.
yay scouser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

er8 - e + 16 wheeler is a big *** + most of love god + consonant
much better clue molly
omg, what a word!
That would make me one for about 8 today. The rest of my clues have sucked.
woo that was the er8 i was struggling with!
never would have gotten it. thanks molly
Daniel Keyes toyed with Flowers For Er8, but decided on the A name instead : ) Kidding
what a sucky clue kje
sucky grids get sucky clues. ;p
amen to that
Don't tease KJE or she will poke you with her pr6
wouldn't be the first time

this is a stinky grid
sorry about the rough week.. but I can't slack off
it is horrid, bichon
I found the donut thing in french!
but.... isn't it time for a be nice to kje day? we haven't had one in forever

hello kje, I feel nice to you. How are you doing.
or9/66 any clues?
oh.. ...have we had one of those?
on 7?
Ahhh I chased her off. Oops
doing OK, red
nm, ty
or9 - think museum paris
been thinking of you.
no ru, actually i don't think we ever have had one... though we have had a couple be nice to ruru days if i remember correctly
<--- due for more of those
perhaps we should have a be very nice to kje day...
on that note I must take myelf to bed.
wow kj. it is be nice to kj day! i got that or clue right away, i'm probably th eonly person who waited three years for it to reopen
hagn red... sleep well
hi and goodnight red
yay doren! wondered if anyone would get that clue - lol
need another clue for or9
or9 - the citrus fruit + sounds like a dark russian bread type
i seriously needed to see it, and it took a while for the renovations to be completed. and i just loved it when i got there finally
or... or5 + a great lake
color + ee***, as in spookie= or9
<---- thinks ru is spoiled
tx got it
Of course Ru is spoiled. That is self evident.
way to go maj
well sure he is, iiving out there in the beautiful wine country, eating well, drinking well. who wouldn't be?

getting late -grid too long and not fun -to bed nite all
actually yes but spacebaractingup
I am not liking this grid
co7 - build up with another
if you had asked, i would have told you not to start it
*Takes off Sinatra and puts on "Build Me Up, Buttercup*
why do we always use the gerund there? why doesn't anyone eve say I do not like this grid?
do you really want an answer to that?
yes....?
I do not like this grid, shazam. I do not like it, Sam I Am.
ty
"Not liking"..."so hating"...text speak.
there you go molly. and am I missing something obvious?
just seems more like a rhetorical question
no, i just have noticed frequently that people post "not liking this grid" and wondered at the construction of it. i'm just weird that way
I get a good laugh at how easily drawn into buzz words and buzz phrases people get.
so... ru.... answer her question!
Even better is "I am so not liking this grid".
bye all
i need someone (KJ) to push me into going downstairs on the bike . i can bring the laptop with me, and I have eaten too much today and need the exercise. but i am feeling soooo lazy
hagn to
owl, our time has been too short
get your butt up and go bike!!!
owl teachers were talking about B & W bakery today and the crumbcake
bike and babble... set a trend!
mustgoshopping
thanks kj. going right now!!!
kje is a good motivator
ByeTOhavefunshopping
ha! more like a nag ; )
don't spend too much on me, TO
Damn, I didn't even get time to play devil's advocate and tell her to slouch.
:D
*waiting for ru's comment*
I can't type and treadmill at the same time. I watch movies while I walk.
no, not a nag at all. i asked her to do it!
if i could talk to my computer, i'd be okay, but typing and walking isn't going to fly with me.
and molly, trust me No one needs to tell me to slouch. i am a natural slug,
<---- notices dorens has not moved
haha! I am on the bike!
i'd hardly noticed the slime at all, dorens
lol ok
lean with elbows on desk.
i didn't realize that the be7 was anything fried!
considering joining maxine for a little spiked nog
wanting to see flying re4deer?
why, you looking for flying reindeer?
could be coo, lbd
especially if they bring me gifts ; )
i have an apple tart calling my name, brb
ahah! pb for me. and i bet it is stocked with that eggnog, too
only gifts are the piles of doo they leave behind, kje
have no idea what you said dorens... but never send yourself yo the pb!
i don't want doo
oh dear, I wouldn't want to be splatted with doo falling from the sky.
why not send myself there? it has always seemed to be a place of good cheer
i don't do time out well... no matter how much egg nog there is
<---Gets the eebie geebies from eggnogg
when my granddaughter was two and a half she put me in time out for singing along with her. Be quiet, grandma, time out. I thought it was hilarious
lol - that is cute
i told her the story last week (she's 5 now) and she thoroughly enjoyed it
She is a bright one, Doren. I expect great things from her.
*snacking on dark chocolate covered acai/blueberries - which look suspiciously like reindeer doo, but taste surprisingly delicious and un-doo-like*
Un-doo-like is good.
chocolate blueberries are the yum!
my sister put skid marks and raisins on the lawn one year and told the kids it was reindeer doo
like, totally :)
she has two harvard grads for parents (and one is a professor there). it is kind of expcted, molly. the fun is her sense of humor though
Anyone can be smart. The fun is always the sense of humor.
5 is a fun age
it sure is. particularly when you're grandma and not ma
And not to dismiss Young Mister, who is also a bright one.
I'm never gonna be a grandma.
if you mean her 2 and a half year old brother who says everything in complete sentences? and cracks us up regularly with his silly knockknock jokes? yes
mixi. adopt a neighbor or something
can always be an 'honorary grandma,' mixi
Mixi, my kids have been too slow to give me a grandchild. I'm thinking about opening "Rent-A-Grandma".
hmmmm. must go meet neighbors.
love being a gramma! didn't think it would happen but it did! twice!
being a grandparent is the best thing on this earth
<---Can't wait
i love the fact that my grandson is pulling the same stuff his daddy did as a kid...slacking off in school, pulling the "dumb" kid routine.
2 more to finish, both re, the re9/66 and one of the re5/14 above it, have the one that means to put off
re5.14 sounds like the type of deer santa uses.
firt re 5/14, please
re9/66 re + rip + gerund
*first re 5/14
got the 9, ty ibd
first re5.14 is a material used in brick laying a metal rod.
2nd re5.14 is like the female name without the 2nd vowel
yw, mary
I'm lost, female name, brick laying?
brick one is re + where you go to get a beer
now that I get, tyvm Mary
female name or victoria re*i**
i have all r's but the first re6/24 - is it fishy?
Female name = means queen.
Queen Elizabeth Re****
Doren, it's the female name you just clued. : )
you just clued it, dorens! the queen
haha! silly me
And it's a freaking proper noun, dammit.
I am still stuck on one more re5/14 it's the 5th one on list
change the third letter of the one before it mary
Doren, have you worked off that cheesecake yet? : P
do it agin mary.
i hope so molly. i have paused from time to time - it's been nearly 30 minutes.. need another five i think
Then bless you my child. Go forth and be absolved of your sin.
that's all i needed to hear. heading back upstairs now
finally, fireworks, ty all for all the help
Yay for Mary!!
whooooo hooooooo Mary!!
am now upstairs
oh yay mary!
firewords! and good night to this grid
Night Bich.
whoooo hooooo Bichon!! sweet dreams
yay to bichon
Oops Doren, you do it too. Why not yay for Bichon? (Just being a pain in the butt)
And that was the dryer buzzer so I will go hang things up and desist in posting my ramblings here.
