6:09 am

howdy shallow one

6:10 am

hello shallow

6:10 am

sled

6:10 am

I like the big ones because I feel like I accomplish something if I get half

was able to stick to my rule - half the words before using lickety 105 left atm

6:11 am

basically big ones are just adding every ending you can think of to every word

i dont like the big ones so mauch as i feel i dont have enough time to look up words i dont know - also its so many of them in the end ill never manage to lern them

6:12 am

that's a good thing for me!

so in the end its puzzling letters to one another rather than a wordgame

6:13 am

ill just try for all the s words fort.that will give me 71 words;)

6:13 am

first

6:13 am

I'm just playing around, nothing systematic

6:14 am

(maybe that's why I never finish)

6:14 am

not to worry ruby.i finish one in 20

6:18 am

I finish the grids but only because I find the words the grids prize.

How is Bobby doing, Annie?

8:15 am

BR. He is doing just fine (thank goodness). He cant decide whether or not he should root for the Yankees since he is a diehard Met fan.

8:16 am

i wonder where Molly is. Her Orioles won last night.

8:17 am

But the Yankees are a NY team so that may sway him just for the play-offs.

I have to run. Have a great day everyone! {[hugs}}

9:58 am

not to me you aren't.

aw poor hursh. Those pounds will go away soon enough, don't worry. Sorry to hear you had such a bad headache. Hope you can sleep tonight.

9:59 am

i have read up on more home remedies and epsom salts seemed to help me this morning pretty well

10:00 am

that is positive. Any home remedy that works is worth a celebration.

10:01 am

hear hear! (or is it here here, i am never sure)

10:02 am

hear hear... but when you can hear hear it is probably here.

10:02 am

If you find yourself writing sentences like “I know I left my wallet hear!” you should note that “hear” has the word “ear” buried in it and let that remind you that it refers only to hearing and is always a verb (except when you are giving the British cheer “Hear! Hear!”). “I left my wallet here” is the correct expression. “Here” is where you are, never something you do.

10:02 am

not seeing that se 6-9 combo

10:02 am

good morning all :)

10:02 am

1:32 pm

sad part is that we all know the song

1:32 pm

----> has visited people in the funny farm. It's a LOT less fun than you would imagine, at least for the visitors. Some of the residents? THEY are having fun

1:32 pm

I will be there to welcome all of you Sprite

oh hego, lovely! I can't wait.

1:33 pm

thank you, thank you!

1:33 pm

Crossy is right!!

1:33 pm

1:33 pm

i have visited several there and sprung several...not fun

1:33 pm

1:35 pm

as a matter of fack i may slip into dirty limericks at an time

1:35 pm

good job Annie!

1:35 pm

1:42 pm

it's shouldn't trouble you when it's a double-u and it goes w, w, w, w!

1:42 pm

ouch

1:42 pm

hurshy!!! A fine word like waffle, would turn out just awful!

1:42 pm

I LOVE that song!

1:42 pm

a jeweler is best.i have worked in collectable glass/coins and a pawn shoppe will pay 30% tops in most cases

1:42 pm

crossy: A lighthouse keeper called Crighton took to seeing a lady from Brighton, but ships ran aground, and sailors were drowned, as she wouldn't have sex with the light on

1:42 pm

1:45 pm

bye for now, Wolvie

1:46 pm

and in states,you are alloed to ingot your own gold,silver,platinum etc,just get a small torch unit and a crucible,and there is a electronic do-dad that you run a current through the gold in question to determine purity.seperate it all into 10,12,24 caRAT ETC AND MELT HER DOWN INOT ONE OF 5 OZ INGOTS AND YOU GET A BETTER DEAL WHEN IT COMES TIME TO MOVE IT..SORRY CAPS..sory caps

1:46 pm

one or 5 oz ingots

1:46 pm

175 left must take a break

1:46 pm

later, smores

1:46 pm

i have done my silver melt from coin this way

1:47 pm

lookin at morewords for my t's - i discover a word i haven't even seen in babble - "trooz"

1:47 pm

later, smores

1:47 pm

oh, crossy, I wouldn't even know how to begin! I am going to try to get the stones out of my engagement ring, so I can sell the setting, but keep the stones, at least. Apparently you can do it with a set of micro screwdrivers

1:47 pm

ooh nice word, hursh. never saw it before

1:47 pm

smores has gone pro!

1:47 pm

yay!

1:47 pm

1:47 pm

canadian silver coins prior to 1921 had .925-,975 silver..almost pue

1:48 pm

1:48 pm

sellng old jewelry has become epidemic here.

1:48 pm

you can if need be,then get them remounted in future when finances are smiling again

1:48 pm

I have gotten more for stuff than I paid for it.

1:49 pm

crossy: this one... bad but it makes me laugh. There once was a man from Far Rockaway That could smell a piece-of-ass about a block away One night he got a whif, but she had the "siff" And now it's eating his cock-a-way

1:49 pm

though..if the jewelery in question was made before 1940,you will get more selling it whole

1:49 pm

I would love to get the stones reset into some other configuration at a future date

1:49 pm

lol sprite

1:49 pm

1:50 pm

I once sold a pile of old rings to a freelance jewelry maker for a good amount - more than I would have gotten for just the gold and silver alone. She used some of the rings as is and built on them to create new ones.

1:50 pm

drg would banish me to the planet of puppies with weak bladders

1:51 pm

isn't that where dc used to live?

1:51 pm

that is also an option rbud

1:52 pm

6:53 pm

I have made a de 4/5 in grid with 197 words. Then grid started to become dr4/5 so I quit. Here is a story la5/12 with clues for my Babble friends to re4/5.My sister has redone her house over the pa 4/5 few months. I would like to follow her le4/5 and do the same thing.There are a whole sl 4/8 of things I want to do to my house. First, I would like to build an an5/20 where we would have a hot tub.I'd love to put some dr6/24 on the front window in livingroom too. I also want to change the office into a guestroom so that parents or other company can sleep and take na 4/5 whenever they are ti5/12. I would also like to turn my walk-in closet into a playroom for my pe 4/5s. I have 3 dogs who love to play with animal toys. I want to add ra4/4ings on my stairs.Finally,I want to cut down tr4/4s in the backyard and get a big pool.I think if I did all this,it would make the re6/18 value of my house go up. I'll want to put my house up for sa4/4 and move further we4/8 to Te 5/20 when I reti4/4.I will have to do my improvements slowly one st 4/5 at a time. All of my improvement ideas will be ne4/8 to my husband and he will flip when he hears what I want to do.Dr4/5! Hubby is being a pe 4/5! Hubby is le4/4ing at me which means he wants to use the laptop. It ir4/4 me when he takes it away from me. I will depa4/5 Babbleland and da 4/5 on into the bedroom to re5/20 and watch TV for the re 4/4 of the evening. By the way, I was a li4/4 and li4/5 with this story of clues.None of it is re4/4.Goodbye babblers
