oh, stats, not scores.

how could you not drink coffee.. I don't believe it
hampton inn does have wireless :)
water, lemonade, soda beer, crown royal, milk, iced tea yes.....coffee, hot tea, hot apple cider, hot chocolate no
soda,beer
I like scotch better than crown royal :)
forgot powerade, arnold palmer
ruru must have fainted
I don't drink beers or soda
I can't stand the taste of beer
how can you not drink beers or soda?
th4's why I do not drink coffee
I don't really like sweet sodas.. too much sugar
i do diet now
oh wow. you'd have to kill me to take away my coffee in the morning
tastes like dirt strained thru hot water
LOL.. it does not
switch th4 around...hot water strained thru dirt
not if it's great coffee... the smell is wonderful
smells good...doesn't mean the taste follows for me
fireworks
You must have been the only airport traffic control guy in th wworld who didn't drink coffee

The trips across the country are for my son's racing which is really a mother's worst nightmare.
keep telling ruru he has to do something off the grid......live life to the fullest...something on his bucket list
ooooh, I can imagine that would be
climg El Capitan....hike Half Dome trail.....hike Muir Woods without a GPS.....all close to where he lives
climb
swim out to Alcatraz
My mother in law always used to do all the Xmas yummies - cake mince pies, rum truffles, etc but she was ill for many years and has now passed away so I have to do it all. The mince pie pastry is her recipe and is so hard to work with!!
I guess he would have to get his knee fixed first...forgot about th4
Anyway - into the torture chamber (kitchen) I go. Happy babbling

Hi EJean.. good to see you again (-:
:-)
Is Chi-Town in the path of that snow storm?
Not that I know of, has been unseasonably warm
good news if you are not a ski fan
we have no mountains here :-)
lol, was thinking of x-c, my survival mechanism for winters in NE Ohio
ooohhhhhhhhhh, true
so, as you can now reckon, I am not a skier
Thou ha7 and then the Grinch took it all away..
all our ski hills are in panic mode,they have manaded to make a bit with the snow guns,and there has been a bit of natural stuff,but we are way below the average snowfall for this area and way above the normal temps
managed
ski slope operators are in seventh he6 when lots of snow is forecast
today's grid makes up for yesterday's nightmare
howdy kje
ahoy aloy!
yes, thanks to Dee's list, am almost finished.. moving along smartly.. wouldn't be tho without some guidance..
well, past 1/2 way pretty quickly, may need that list once the wall appears.... and it always does
there are some strange words in this grid, but you are right, MUCH better than yesterday's (-:
the "s" is in a nice spot
yep
st7 monkeyed.. rhymes with what you put on a horse, be it English or Western style
ty aloy
yw, don't remember seeing that one before
nope
it means "a platform upon which hay is stacked".. maybe a farmer would know that word
42 left and slowing
Forgot to wish everyone a Happy Winter's Solstice! We are having a party tonight ... yay.. the days will start to get longer

The Napali coast is very rugged. you must be in better shape than I am!!
We'll see about that poodletoes. I might not make it very far. Hubby and son will do much better
CAn you do snorkeling this time of the year or is the water to rough?
I snorkeled in Belize when it was rough and I got motion sickness. Wasn't pretty
you will have a great time there, bichon. It is beautiful. go to get busy now. bye.

Thank you, bichon!
Volley Mom has 189 words?
a nice friendly grid today:)
indeed i just got nbt in 18 words with no clues
hi all
bichon-i just counted Volleymom's list & there are only 188 even though it says 189 at the tio
**top**
howdy jmc
crossy i assume you have seen this but in case not:https://s3.amazonaws.com/markoestr eicher/meat-nativity.jpg
what a nice thing to do scribe!
thanks but it only took a minute & I wanted to make sure
lol,and carlee thought I was the one obsessed with bacon! lol

yep this makes you look like a piker!
go out together twice crossy
*looks in freezer for fish for crossy*
mmm

do you have da4/5?
have a pair of da 4/5,s
well pt one of them
morning. all!
howdy suze!
the one about going on a first da**
hi uu
crossy needs coffee
crossy<-------big fish right here
a big tuna perhaps...
*tosses halibut*
seems like a pretty straightforward grid today, I got nbs and nbt shortly after the flip
sorry didn't have tuna
mmm habbilup....
Good morning, chickadees.
yes so far but i am not working at it very hard
that one fish is nbt for crossy
hi judi
rest were easy so far,went over 100 before first tea was done
howdy judi
50 left and I've hit a wall
hi, jmc, crossy, judi, harry!
ah my potential tenant is here bbl
had to run out and pick up a vomiting child from school
and nbs for crossy
finito!
bummer, harry!
morning all!
and yay lbd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
yaa for lbd!!
wtg lbd!
wtg lbd!
hello again, everyone
special thanks to vollee for the list.
whoops just found 3 more Vs :)
nothing worse that a call from the school at (:30 am,you know it is not going to be good
poor Harry with sick child. hope it's just an upset tummy
yeah - and the sitter didn't show up today, so I had to pack up the baby to go get the kid
he actually seems fine now.
9:30*
amazing how that happens...
it's a bummer to be sick this close to Christmas
but gotta pack them both up in a couple hours to go get the 3 year old :)
it's the season for all the ickies.
we haven't all been healthy in two months. just viruses circulating and mutating all around the house
Hubby and I had the icks last Christmas. Thankfully we are healthy this year.
I've taken to spraying a ring of lysol around the kids. lol
lol mags
having but a single child(even if he is the demon from the 7th circle of hell) can be a blessing:)we almost had a second child when he was four but it was not to be
teenager crossy?
when we finall rid the house of germs I feel like I should bleach everything in sight
my kid picks up a bug at school and he hhas the sniffles for 12 hours,then the mrs and i are dying for a week
don't have littles around so we're not as likely to get all the ickies, but Hubz has a lot of contact with people...i just hand him the soap and kiss him later.
18 now magmom
I swear my 13year old daughter is the spawn of satan some days. Sheesh!
my oldest is just getting to tween-hood, so I'm gearing up
she turns 10 on monday
lord save the planet from 11-15 year old girls!..the weeping,the gnashing of teeth,the drama!!! run!
antibacterial wipes...use on doorknobs, phones, anything hands touch or comes in close contact with face
this is why I get flu shots every year - nothing like 20,000 college students!
Oh Harry. You have no idea what you are in for. I will pray for you
better batten down the hatches harry
10 years old is too young for tween-hood.
got a shotgun HH?
hah
My son will be 12 in about 3 months. *shudder*
My son will be 12 in about 3 months. *shudder*
If I had a front porch, I could sit there with a rifle
or maybe a place you can stay for 4 years with the wife and daught fight it out
flu shots r us!!
daughter
I wish Judi! That's when my daughter started with the attitude. Ugh!
i loved my boy when he turned 18...it was like a whole new human being!
he is new alright..:/
well my youngest daughter is only 2, so it's gonna be awhile till I'm done with all the drama
a grunting,sleeping texting money begging machine
my nieces are both in their 30's they still have the attitude!
so, if I can just get through the next 6 years I might actually like my kids again? LOL
in their 30's we call it "moxie" and it's a positive trait.
All that drama is far too much work for everyone.
no, one of them needs a swift boot in the butt!
There are days when it would be far easier to have them raised by wolves
my son is 22 but still has a lot of maturing to do (intelligence is not the same as maturity, unfortunately)
45!
same with my son sue,he is about 3 year behind his age bracket
lol mags. and this is when we all realize why some animals eat their young!
mine is all over the map, crossy, very mature in some ways and very immature in others
how many owrds today...I was told 188, but volleymom has 189 ?
UU, i'm afraid that's just being male.
indeed sure,my sons writing is at 5th grade,but he is in advanced autobody and is going to do co-op course for it next semester
seriously, I'm blessed with pretty darn good kids. They're smart, they tend to stay out of trouble and they are usually sweet and loving. If they just didn't have hormones...
I'm showing 188.
188 Ouw
well, there is that, lbd! at some point he will be somebody else's problem!!
thanks
so i think he will lean towards the trades vs the acedemics
time to list
good for him, crossy!
one thing to think of people..these children will be the one to decide what home we go in lol
That's okay, Crossy. There will always be a demand for skilled tradesmen/women.
nothing wrong with the trades! plumbing and hvac are really good trades
still don't know what mine is going to do, if he's going to get through college he has to learn better time management, and how to function when bored
at least he will be able to fix my car;)
lol,my son does his morning stuff all in the last 3 minutes!
no worries, UU. I didn't think mine would finish college, but he did and has his masters in physics.
lays there for 57 min groaning how tired he is(after only 10 hours sleep!)
<--- worries anyway
*UU, that's a mom's job...worrying*
he has 3 semesters under his belt and is skating with being on probation
mine is going right into the new college down the road when he is done with high school in year and a half
he will need to take second semester physics for the third time in the spring - I am teaching it (fortunately grading is not very subjective)
wow uu - he's going to be in your class?
unless he puts it off, harry
that must be hard also,being in moms class
I can't imagine having my kid in my class
it's a big class and I've already had his friends and children of my friends and colleagues in classes
I would think the mortification factor would at least be doubled in that case (on both parts).
you map out the building blocks of the universe and he is stumped then you go home and bake cookies
well, he wont have an excuse for not having his homework done.
he might do better with the building blocks of the universe; this is electromagnetic theory
would be like rembrant teaching his kids to paint lol..big shoes
and the homework is online and automatically graded
th 7= britt/canadian cinema
"Worrying is using your imagination to create something you don't want."
worrying about the future is like trying to empty the ocean with a tea spoon
i like the old japanese way of it yesterday is done,do not waste anguish on it,tomorrow is far away and a million things may happen to change its course,but today is here now and must be enjoyed to the fullest
i had my mother for advanced english in hs
Does anyone have a list for today?
what grade did you get in it?
yesterdays gooooone sweet jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
vollymomdee i believe
VolleyMom has a list
oh lord pray be with me today one day at a time
Ty.
i got a C+
yup...all in a panic over something and you may get run over by a bus at 1:30
like the song says,the bigs thigs are always unexpected,they just blindside you on some sunny tuesday afternnon
okay i got a tenant! yay!
yaaaa
yay jmc!!!!
so now i am going to go spend some money on christmas presents
hi folks - poppin' in for a quick babble-fix

hi nan, no molly, the list is fine
Thanks

Hi everyone
Hi Sea
Hi Sea
This Christmas stuff is really wearing me out!
Oh me too Sea.
On the up side, the weather has been glorious the past few days.
Oh I know, I will take this the rest of the winter.
hi, babblers :)
Me too. Keep that thought alive. Hi Welki.
Hi welki
ugh ... dryer is making high pitched squeaking noises (cat is here beside me). sounds like death throes
It's a belt Welki. That's what mine did before it gave up the ghost.
i wish it was the belt, mol. we took it apart and it's metal against metal .. the dryer barrel is rubbing against the frame. but similar enough - it's only a matter of time
it's served us well - i have no idea how long dryers are supposed to last, but this one is almost 13 years old
welki, we found a dead dried up rat in our drier... threw it to the curb!
the drier and rat that is :)
hey mrp!
hi :)!!
Hi mrp
hi seas!
did clues come up?
I think you got your moneys worth welki
worst part, sea, is shopping for a new one. i love the way the fancy schmancy ones look, but am drawn to the old faithfuls :)
no, mrp .. just checked. still wednesday's
i think so too welki... is a bugger when a needed appliance does that just days before xmas... that is what happened to my microwave. I got a new one delivered 2 days ago
I'm the same way welki, the more technical the more costly the repairs
bugger.... will try again
Good night all.
hi and nite wht :)
it'd be nice if the laundry room was the centerpiece of my house and everyone who visited could ooooh and ahhhh over gorgeous appliances - but i'm really the only one who gets a good look at them *lol*
'night wht
I don't like making any major purchases
night wht
neither do i, but i seem to make my share of them
and washing machines .. front load, top load, overload!
we had two major 'purchases' just before xmas... totally peed me off!
<-- will end up at sears.
were the purchases at least something you can enjoy, mrp?
We just had motorhome repairs, homeowners ins., you name it
we sold our motorhome, sea - traded it in for a fifth wheel
not at all welki! 2 x excess for car accidents (only minor and no one injured) but 2 in 3 weeks!! I wanted to just die at the thought of $1100 gone, *snap* like that
But, thats life
and do you think we have $1100??? hahahaha! god is having a good laugh at me
$hit happens
seems like you're getting more than your fair share, mrp
the $microwave was just another 'hahaha' too
sea, do you travel south in the winter?
howdy!
hey jen
hi jen :)
No welki, wish we did...we do travel south in the spring and fall though
evening everyone:)
hi crossy!
Hi crossy
hi there, crossy!
((((crossy)))) !
(((MRP)))
howdy welki
Maybe when we are old enough to retire welki
i think my xmas spirit has been hung drawn and quarted with the amount of $000 LOL!
you're in maryland - i used to rent a house on the shore in ocean city years ago. sure miss pickin' those crabs!
i see you have been beating up the car again mrp:/
hang on.... make that 'minus' $000! LOL
i wish it was me crossy! at least that would be the least of my worries :)
'tis the season, mrp. how're the kids?
I was just down that way a few weeks ago, everyone in my family loves crabs
how you going crossy! long time darling!!!
jolly, joy, ho ho ho... am with it and ok
i can't get blue claws up here, but i treat myself to a nice dungeness every now and again - and i bring home old bay when i'm back east
has been indeed! all the chaos leading up to christmas has kept me hopping
kids are happy when everything is going their way :D ... jolly, joy, ho ho ho
crossy like the alaskan king crab legs:)
but hard to find nice chunky ones
crabs and crab cakes just don't taste right without old bay...I won't eat crab cakes outside of Maryland
i have to go look at clues again... this is the 4000th time!
i have chunky legs .. they're more queen sized than king :)
lol
lol welki
my 90+ british father in law lives in victoria, bc .. considers himself mr seafood extraordinaire - and now he's an old bay fan, too :)
can you order old bay on line?
i love the way the house smells when i steam crabs .. spice and sea
don't know .. my kids live back east and i pick it up when i visit
mmmm..and shrimp too
i miss the ocean
someone told me today that oysters are $140 a gal. in the store
mmm bring on the crab and the shrimp and a pound of garlic butter burbling over a candle:))
whoa .. that's crazy
she's not kidding .. check this out, oysters are at the bottom of the page: http://franksseafood.com/prices.php
don't know what a gallon of oysters is... but we pay $12 a dozen
no rubbery ersters for crossy...ewww...i drink ginsing tea and that is enough to prime the carb lol
here, mrp, people make all sorts of things with already shucked and packaged oysters. they come in a bucket. i like mine in the shell, though (with my father in law sitting beside me at the oyster bar in victoria bc)
I can do without at those prices...I am not any ouser eater either
we only get shelled oysters... i didn't realise they came bucketed!
I do like oyster stew
gotta run .. nice 'seeing' everyone
You can buy them by the bushel as well as shucked
we have a couple dozen oysters in shells for xmas day with king prawns (I think they are called shrimp in USA) and crab
'see' ya welki!
bye welki...am not far behind you
had some amazing rock lobster 2 months ago...mmmm could eat a half dozen of em

I do like shrimp fetticini
Da I mean

and what is a shrimp size??
shrimp and rice...
anything from cocktail shrimp to 5-7 inch tiger shrimp
do you guys get australian king prawns??
no,we do not
but we eat a dozen tiger shrimp and feel better about it all:)
don't think so
Never mind. I found it. Good night, all
sorry gramma,was too focused on shrimp for a second
well, a king prawn ain't no shrimp!
LOL :))
prawns and shrimpo are kissing cousins i think
and "crawfish" in the deep dark south lol
indeed they are
mmm craw fish and frittes
sweet tater frittes..and everything down there comes with a buscuit
and grits...ewww
i think they do grits cause they are angry the do not have good bacon lol
what are you talking about?? grits????
you will have to google them mrp..but they are nasty and they try to push them on you at every breakfast
where I am from, that is dried up bits of dirt!
hey all
hi m9 :)
howdy m9
i think the dried up dirst would taste better
dirt
you need to have grits made properly. they can be quite tasty.
hi again everyone! (((MRP)))
hi dawg!
One of the first times I went south with my husband, I was served grits with breakfast (they do that everywhere) and I asked for syrup to put on them. They thought I was crazy!
but you have to come down here when i do up my eggs and peameal bacon with cheddar and sweet tater frittes with sea salt
((((hugs)))) and merry xmas darling dawg!
mmmm grits!
Merry Christmas to you too, Sweety
shudder at the thought of grits....
they do not do grits north of the border,i promise you that lol
do you do polenta?
nope
but i know of it
Nor North of the Mason Dixon line
we do polenta... on the bbq is the best
our store sells polenta
have never tried it
i didn't like polenta the first time i had it. it reminded me of the first time i had grits. not a good experience, then i had someone who knew what they were doing make both and wow, what a difference!
polenta is very european, especially eastern europe
Must go try to relieve this sinus headache...have a good evening everyone
feel better, sea
oh seas! sorry for your pain... get better soon and night
thank you...see you tomorrow
I like polenta as a dessert
i like it fried, then served with syrup or fruit compote. yummy
yes! that would be nice!
i also like it savory with different spices and herbs mixed in
it's a nice blank canvas to dress up to whatever mood you're in.
