I havent left yet... still looking lol but Jac, wanted to let u know I didnt defriend you. MY profile was hacked so I hasd tro create a new one, still adding people. I had 1000 friends lol cant remember every one's name since FB wont let me see my old profile either
Cos - I wasn't talking about you. x
1000+ friends on FB? Gosh, that's a lot. Mine's under 200.
I figured but I realized I havent added you yet lol
(so happy i don't do the facebook thing)
Mine too, jac
half of them were farmville and bingo blitz friends so no big deal lol
I don't either, involves too much time. Daughter put me in there so I get occasional messages - one from a cousin I haven't seen in over 25 years
I got my mom FB because she likes Words with friends and now she likes FB because she can talk to her sister in Wyoming
ruru -- I'm happy I do -- very helpful in many ways -- wonderful re-contact with old friends -- book sales among Dane people too!
nice, cos
it is interesting to see all my kids old school chums - I knew most of them quite well
FB is a wonderful tool for deaf people actually.
I don't play games on FB
I like FB because it keeps mein touch with family and friends all around the world and also provides me with a very supportive network of fellow writers and artists.
I play word games on FB also, but only with friends.
skype is good for that too Jacula
Similar here, jac.
finally nbt nbs ty diz for my last big word :)
I've got a skype account, flosey, but I can't find it on my pc.
Well done, Dee.
ty vm, jac
oh, too bad, I couldn't help you there, hope someone will be able to
The contact with Dane breeders worldwide has been fabulous -- even including discussions about breed standards and their variations -- Quiteinfuential. For me, FB is not a toy.
Don't know how you do it that fast, but all credit to you.
I have skype but have never used it!
i'm not buying into facebook
I was one of the pokier ones tonight... helps to watch the chog to get help from others
wtg dee!
FB is essential for coordinating animal rescues/transports
grandson got me on skype
ty jili
i CAN'T EVEN save myself une.. :D
jillibus - I should get you together with a writer friend of mine on FB who is also a dog breeder/trainer. I warn you that she might drive you nuts with her 'I'm right and the rest of you are wrong' stance on everything in life, though. :(
ruru -- can't understand your resistance -- but maybe you just don't have the time or the need.
great way to reconnect with friends I hadn't "seen" in over 25 years...
jac, she might be interesting, though!
FB is very useful for all sorts of stuff these days, including me getting in touch quickly with my other half working away from home last night when I had no mobile 'phone signal.
145 and signing off -- good to see everyone! :-) *poof*
jilli - she is interesting but very annoying at times.
crap.. now I gotta get to 146
if he has the time to do this...he has the time to do FB lol
I'll suggest you befrienf her, jilli, later. Remind me if I don't.
oh sure dart
Skype just got me stupid messages from "Gen. Petraeus" and other fakes. And for world-wide needs, there are such time differences email is better.

thanks Erda
erda, you are SO helpful!
jillibus - I'd no idea Skype did that sort of thing. I just thought it was a private phone/video service for private individuals.
lol flosey
I thought so too, jac, but...
erda's clues are direct and to the point
I've received messages from unknowns, I just don't accept them
Jillibus - :(
lol, rurure erda.
They are not clues; they are misdirected entries...
LOL
sure, erda
dang erda.. I thought you were tossing your chips into the cause
I wouldn't know anything about misdirected entries erda :D

*out of lurk mode* so lovely to read of your concern, dee. justt been very tired and sore. not the knee. doing 9 hour shifts, fibromyalgia being beastly.
I'm not here for the next two weekends.
Hi GRose - glad to see you are still with us. xx

plus my immediate superior has been demoted...and our usual in charge is on annual leave...guess who is running the recovery room?
feel like someone beat me and I hurt everywhere
hope you have fun things planned the next 2 weekends Jac
dee, my lower legs have been so swollen and red and burning....
awww, my poor darling dee. biggest of gentle hugs, dear
truly absurd... hope you improve soon, gran... maybe 9 hr shifts should be taboo

Hello everyone - just have a message for you all
Got it, TY Dee
Everyone...earlier we were having yet another conversation about how some of us would like to give Lickety something for providing the clues. I asked him to put his Paypal account on his Clues List. He has, just on the right hand side. So - if you feel so inclined ......

I don't feel inclined to send any money anywher after the last shambles. Sorry!

Entirely voluntary, just for those who have expressed a wish to...I doubt you even use Lickety Jac. PS Huge thanks for your lists - I always look to you first if Lickety is down
lynxxx - no, I don'tt use Lickety but would be happy to help him continue. However, seeing how people got burned on the last collection, by someone I do not know who, I'm not gong there, ever.

It's like tearing out the last page of a good book! You don't do that to someone you love.

Just a minor setback then
*sigh* mother mac fell last friday....talk about milk it for all it's worth....
Sorry to hear that. Is she very frail?
i know she is sore...that's why i told her to take oxycodone for her pain....x-rays are all okay....she just needs smaller amounts of food for the next few weeks. so....why does he have to clear it with her?
Sigh! Waves of sympathy heading to Melbourne area!
for goodness sake! put it ion front of her...if she doesn't eat it, so be it!!!!
awww, thanx liz
You sound like a true teacher!!! That was our attitude when we took kids away! They'll eat if they're hungry.
exactly, liz

If she wants more, she can ask!
Or can leave it if it's too much!

Hi rose - how are things going?
good morning?

Morning ruby. Loved the pictures of Raffy, she looks adorable, like a real live teddy.
good morning chrissie
I am waiting for my fridge to be delivered
wht a nuisance, not knowing when they are coming
how are you? Have you had any sunshine? We had one day, yesterday, and now it's miserable again.
You would think that delivery people could give say a 2 hour slot rather than have you hanging around.
they gave a 4 hour "slot" but it id a question of locking up the dog because we have to open the gate to the streety
just annoying, but no bi deal
We've had sunshine and snow combined - wierd weather. Biting cold though.
I've already emptied out the old fridge
at least it's cold enough to put everything outside
lol, that's looking on the bright side
if I didn't try to look at the bright side, I'd shoot myself! lol
Are you still on track fot collecting the pup tomorrow?
yes, my friend and I are supposed to meet Rafie "someplace" on the autoroute tomorrow but the owner hasn't yet said where
too much uncertainty is giving me a stomach ache
Very exciting:)
I love the comparative ending!

they say she's fine, but the particulars of our 'meetup\' re still not settled
Those were the clues from earlier for the 9 and 10
Oh. I thought she was being driven to Lyon!
I've not been here much over the last 2 weeks - guests and passover preparation.
ty for the 9 and 10 -- weird words
never seen those words before!
yes, but her owner said we'd meet at a rest area on the autoroute but exactly where hasn't been decided
clue for the 9/10: the Spanish have sanctified the bloke from the rice boxes.
But is it def happening?
Lyon is about 1 1/2 hrs from here and my friend is driving me so husband can stay with Rugie
Hi dachef :)

btw, guess who's running the recovery room at the moment????
no! they are sadists, your colleagues!
*woof*|
my charge nurse is on annual leave.....someone has to do it....so many things to sort....somethings not been done before we opened the new suite.
most nurses i have met can easily give 50 shades a run for it's money:)
present company excluded of course
i mean....how can you open a new recovery room which does not meet the standards set down...or goodness sake!!!!
not enough suction outlets...not enough hand-sanitisers....drug par levels sh4 to heck....give me strength....
you keep on them granny!
crossy, will not allow anything...equipment or staff inadequacies....to compromise the safety of my patients.

hi, all. I am excited to say our new refrigerator will be delivered today.
I am stuck on the first sh5. anyone have a clue for it?
got the sh5
any clues for the 9/10?
sa & cons & Mussolinis given name
they sound spanish - sa9 and pl
lynxxxx, great clue, thanks
Rbud, love your icon : D
hi Annie yw
good morning, evening everyone
so they could mean "without Mussolini"? haha
Hi everyone :)
Morning Annie
ty, Molly :)
Bye the way Annie, Lickety now has a PayPal address for himself on his clue list - at my request following our conversation
hi Liz
going to look
Hi Liz
Cute bunny Molly
: )
why, does Lickety need funds for the clue site? (I can certainly understand that)
No Rosebud. Its just that quite often we talk about paying him in a small way so I asked him to put up a Payupal address for us - if anyone seems so inclined.
no pressure on anyone. I know Lickety would never ask for it himself which is why I 'requested' he do it.
hm. got the 9 and 10. There is a town in Texas, sa9.
Good morning!
BBL going to drop daughter home
Hi Car
I see - good idea. :)
lynxxx, I would like to pay lickety for his service to us but I will not use PayPal. I dont know how. I would be happy to send a check to him directly.
Hi Car :)
Annie, do you know anyone who has a Paypal address who could do it for you?
Maybe you could find someone to do it for you Annie. The trouble is that clearing an international cheque costs a bomb
I have used paypal for years with no problems, just in case anyone is worried about its security.
I second what Rbud said. I use PayPal often, with no problems.
I just dont know how. I will ask Mom if she will do it.
I also know if you indicate that the money is a gift, then the recipient is not charged for it.
I dont know if Mom has a Pay Pal account.
I think otherwise there's a small charge on both ends of a transaction, or so I'm told.
and now it is time for crossy's tidbit of the day!!!
You have to give them credit card info, but they are very secure. So if you have no credit (or debit, too, I suppose) you may not be able to use it.
ames Barrie, author of Peter Pan, never had kids, but he did have a special affection for the children of others. In 1929 he signed over the rights for Peter Pan to a London hospital that specialized in pediatric medicine.
hiya, crossy! interesting. :)
A favourite place - Hyde Park by the statue of Peter Pan :)
Annie, the only other "clean" way to send money internationally is via Western Union or Money Gram. You would have to get information from Lickety (email him) in order to do that.
and a side note to that is that the book was the first to give us the name wendy
I do have one friend who has used paypal with a rechargeable card from WalMart, so she only adds money to the card when she wants to use it - that way no access to her accounts in any way.
very interesting, Crossy. Peter Pan is one of my favorites
This is getting involved. How do I even contact PayPal? I dont know how to get started.
Morning babblers :)
Actually Kensington Gardens!
paypal.com
hello Nono
howdy nono
You would have to set up an account with Paypal Annie and you said you don't use your bank account on line.
thanks rbud
funny you all should be talking about pay pal...
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children is an amazing place!
just last nite my son goy email that a charge at a citgo was denied
That's the hospital crossy mentioned, that J M Barrie signed the Peter Pan rights to
what happened, Nono?
"cool,liz,i did not know the actual name of the place
aftw=er investigating a bit because he does not use his paypal master card for gas, it was found yo be fraudulent
that was in Georgia, an hour latteer another charge showed up in Texas!
wow, scary
Glad to have added to your tidbit of the day :)
we are the sum of your parts;))
very scarey Rbud
our
;)
The only card I use online is my credit card.
he called pypal and they immediately canceled the card and will reissue a new one
annie these weren't online purchases
Just for the record, that kind of thing can happen with any credit card account and I hope that story does not put people off from sending to Lickety, if that is what they would like to do.
i use pre-paid visa or mastercard gift cards worth 25-100 dollars,that way i am not putting my main credit card number out there that has a 40k limit
that are avaialable at most pharmacies
yep, I think that's the best way. prepaid cards can be gotten at walmart, also
oh i dont intend that it put anyone off Molly! but just a warning to keep a close eye on your account at all times
i sleep better at night that way
Can I send a pre-paid mastecard gift card w/o incurring more charges at Lickety's end?
I'd be scared to death to carry around a credit card with that big of a credit limit on it.
I think if you specify that it's a gift, yes, Annie
well,you do not send the card itself,rather you use the card to send funds via pay-pal
Crossy...I need a few things....
LOL, car!! :)
i usually am as well,molly,but they laid it on me after i cleard a large purchase
what do you need,car?
She's tapping your big credit card limit.
heeheehee!
lol and always remember,it is a credit card,used to go into debt at a interest bearing rate.it is not like i actually have 40k,car lol
Well...what I really need...are the stats for the L please.
don't be like my sis, who maxed out card after card, and kept getting new ones to pay the old ones, etc, until she and her hubby had to declare bankruptcy for nearly half a million. :P
it happens indeed,rbud
she's not right, my sis
la5//12 and la6/21
la + Beatles tune ***d Days Night
TY
she scared me on a trip we took, charging up to $700 at souvenir stores, etc. it was horrifying.
ty Molly
though since the card is part of our canadian tire bonus reward program what i have done is charged 10k to it for something i already had 10 k in cash for,got my 150 dollars in canadian tire in store dollars and paid the card off 2 days later;0
sounds like she has no control at all
she's better now, thank goodness. plus has no credit rating any more, lol - that slowed her down.
rbud that woul scare me too! I have a rle, if I cant pay the charge in full by the end of thr month then I don't need it
That is scary Rbud. When my Dad started declining with Alzheimer's, I realized he and my Mom were walking around with credit cards with really high credit limits. Someone could have bought a car with them, if they were stolen.
well,not being allowed a card ever again will indeed slow her down a tad
I have enough trouble with the two I have, with relatively paltry $2,500 and $3,000 limits.
there is an amex card out there,molly that allows the holder to by a house if desired
amex black.they are issued by invitation only
still paying them off for the two years we were broke waiting for hubby to be declared disabled. much better now. had to eat somehow, lol!
we wnt through that as well,rbud.took ten years for the DR,s to care enough to fill out the forms correctly
bus...brb...
last 5 years the frs, and disability bounced the forms back and forth like it was a ping pong ball:(
dr,s*
we eventually had to get a lawyer.
we were lucky.after ten years they were satisfied with the forms
that's so wrong, crossy, how can they do that to folks?
they do it,because often unless you push hard enough,you are too small to show up on their radar
plus they just don't care. :P
my 2 cents worth: Low limit on my credit card but big enough to hurt -- Capital One catches anything unusual re my spending pattern and questions it, recently caught a fraudulent charge by a fake software company. When I confirmed it wasn't mine, they immediately changed the number and sent me a new credit card.
And, they hope you will give up before you actually feed them all the paperwork they require.
tye do indeed,molly.one actually told me that it was theri way of "weeding out" phonies
i said"maybe you should work a bit and verify cases instead of letting people starve for a decade
happened to my mom, too, jwr, her bank issued new cards and many had software charges on them within the week, they had a bunch to sort out. my mom has never even used a computer.
Government employees...WORK?? Hahahaha.
Does anyone have the sa 9/10?
some are good i am sure,but may get a god complex because they realize they can say yea or nay on critical forms that literally alter peoples lives
i have tried saunter about 100 times now..:((
we have to be careful here,molly or one of them will see this and audit us just to show how busy then can be

Morning all. Stats for the N in the second column, please?
ne 4/6

YAY! My new fridge is in!
nu 7/32
and it is a thing of beauty
TY, car.
woohooo ruby
more like a pecan? for nu7, I mean
yay, ruby
or crazier, lol
It is actually nicer than my old GE and, once the cabinets above were taken out, fits the space better
Oh very nice Ruby! A new 'toy'!
ty annie great clue
youre welcome, Nono
Thanks for the nu7
toy? Imagine living for more than 2 months without a functional fridge. Ice here, food, there, frozen food elsewhere
congrats, ruby! I got a shiny new one several years ago, too, first one I'd ever had. I admired it for days! :)
New appliances are a wonderful thing.
the old one was nice, but it hasn't worked properly for a long time and was almost totally useless these past months
also got my first brand new stove recently, and my first ever brand new washer. life is good!
soooo many years of used beaters, haha!
living large there,rbud:))
I took a floor model and didn't have to wait as long as ordering one
my kitchen stove just passed the 25 year mark,though the fridge is only 5 years old
not only that, I now own the newest vehicle I've ever had, and it actually looks it after the body shop got done with it - a '98 Chevy S10 little truck.
when we built this kitchen during the remodeling of the house (we weren't living here yet), we thought we were buying all the best appliances but Miele and Gaggenau, are both VERY highly overrated!
Oh...my...god...new baby was born...15 lb 7 oz!!! OUCH!
stoves can go on forever, crossy, yours is vintage, lol!
Had to have been delivered c-section.
eek! a newborn toddler, lol!
I never heard of such a big baby! Ouch is right
I have a book that Trif gave me..."The Wicked Big Toddlah". I think this would apply!
throw away all those baby gifts
Found an 8. For those still looking sc8/45.
I love the er ending, gave e many words
Phantom: potato
ouch,car! my da was born 14 ponds 4 oz in 1943

NBT and NBS. Time to bzz...Pfft!
there you go, that credit card could fix you right up, lol
bye, Bea
wtg bea
I used to joke with my husband about getting a Viking, but it probably comes with an ankle chain
bye bea
lol, ruby!
lol,remeber rbud,credit cards are nothing but spending money you DO NOT have
so what kind of fridge did you get?
I used to do a lot more cooking and entertaining -- not any more!
It's a Samsung "American " fridge which I guess means side-by-side
ah, a name I know, I wasn't familiar with the ones you mentioned earlier
ruby, does it have the freezer on the bottom
they sounded French?
and it's a dull silver-gray so it goes with my brushed stainless appliances
I still don't quite get the freezer on the bottom thing.
no, it's side-by-side with the right (smallish) size freezer. But the ice and water ome out the door so it's perfect
my fridge only has 2 sides,the front side that you open to get food and the back side that faces the wall;))
cold settles, I suppose is the theory...?
ruby, have fun filling your fridge up
Gaggenau and Miele are famous German brands and ie would NEVER recommend either of them
(two doors)
Freezer on the bottom is great, no bending over all the time
not many german kitchen appliances make it over here,ruby,so no worries
the only thing wrong is that it's a little bit taller than the old one and the egg thingie in the door is pretty high for e, need to stand on my toes
put the eggs somewhere else, then
in this interim period we bought a tiny fridge for the pantry and a small freezer for the garage.
It will be good for me to stretch a little
,aybe I'll get taller
saw you picture ruby,looks like you need a step still to reach the toilet handle:)))
stool
hahah
I've heard that eggs and milk stored on the fridge door is not a good idea. They get exposed to too much warm air.
especially milk
I've noticed there are seemingly no more metal shelves these days, they are all glass now, which sort of scares me with our crazy kids, I fear accidental breakage somehow
rbud, it's lucite not glass
Still, they are heavy as hell to take out and clean.
Good morning everyone :)
yes, they are quite heavy
I think mine are really glass, sure seems like it. quarter inch thick. and yes, very heavy.
hi smores
rbud they are tempered glass and quite safe i think, Ive not had a problem with them fir nearly 20 years
howdy,smores
whew, good to know
good morning all

I love trying new recipes
black bean brownies are my currant
home made tater tots, grrens in a glass and using zucchini instead ot spaghetti

Although I've seen alot of very odd ones lately
no more gas than usual LOL
lol
seriously question
Someone had a garbanzo bean cake recipe on here...was that you Shirl?

What a struggle, right, smores? Getting too old for this!

Yes, it is, and satan doesn't work either.
nope
erda not using a letter twice in either direction for that word
4th column O?
planet word...
erda an sa word for a planet doesnt work
Don't have to use one twice for those.
I thought you were talking about Uranus

I have to take a stupid allergy test this afternoon that has been postponed by my doctor three times now
smores can you clue that la 5/12 word please?
so I'll believe it when I see it
there's left over pie in the PB Mimi :)
BTW, I'm doing a one-week free trial of Hulu Plus---lots of good shows there you can't get elsewhere including classic TV like WKRP and Mary Tyler Moore....can watch them through my Roku.
why would a dr have to postpone a test like that.. it makes no sense
Oh, good, smores----LOVE pie!

which SA for the 9 and 10?
I'll have to cut back the sugar a little next time but came out pretty tasty.
Left MLF
Just finished a batch of my chicken spaghetti yesterday--another easy, inexpensive thing I do that is better leftover. VERY easy.
mimi spaghetti is one of those things you can eat cold and it still tastes good..same with chicken lefover
sounds good Mimi...you'll have to send the recipe...I need some new chicken recipes
I like cold chicken, cold pizza...not sure about the spaghetti :)
smores clue please?
Here it is: Caramelize two onions, add sliced mushrooms, add 2 cans or bottles spaghetti sauce, add cut-up rotisserie chicken and simmer. Cook 2 containers fresh pasta, drain and add. Put parmesan on top when serving. That's it!
Sa* Diego + Big *** (clock) + OJ Simpsons judge ***
Next time I'm adding sunflower seeds. Had them in a friend's manicotti recipe and was really good.
smores oj simpson judge i dont remember
sounds tasty Mimi...bet it would be good baked with extra cheese too
never mind got it
nbt and nbs
in4/4 + 2nd letter
Yep--lends itself to all kinds of variations. I make the double batch (the one I gave) and it lasts me 4 days.
i am out for a bit poof
Bye for now MFL :)
I like baked spaghetti
I like pretty much any kind of pasta dish. Have you tried the fettucine yet? Am going to make the relleno next week.
It's weird but I always crave tomato sauce types of Italian pasta when I'm sick!
Yes I did...it was delicious
Are you sick?
My ex used to say he could eat that and feel his arteries harden!
Nope, not sick now. Just think it's odd that when I am I want Italian food.
:)
Did the girls like the fettucine?
Yes..we all love pasta as well
Glad they liked it. I know they weren't wild about the relleno, silly girls.
:) just meant more for me
As you can tell, I use those rotisserie chickens a lot...so easy and always tender.
me too...I get them often
:)
We eat them as is and I then usually make something out of what's left
Another quick idea with those is to make the Savory Herb Stovetop stuffing, add mushrooms and the chicken and serve with corn. Fast and total comfort food.
sounds good to me
My silly girls won't eat stuffing either
makes lovely chicken divan.
they're weird...lol
That was one of my daughter's favorite things.
mmmm...I bet TO
easy makeaheadthen bake later
Ooooh, TO, got a recipe?
Phantom: sarcasm.
I like to make chicken salad with them too
lol...that was my phantom too
i do. i an put it into my profile later or tomorrow AM. I know you wouldneed broccoli spears, lemon juice,paprika,cream of chicken soup,lowfatmayo
Thanks much, TO....smores and I will be looking for it!
my coworker'smother was a southern cook and it is her recipe. hearty, i think of it as a cold weather dish
I'll be checking it out for sure TO
i keepseeing asphalt
Coincidentally, the job I'm waiting to hear about today is with Wildflower Bread Company. Don't know if you have them in the midwest or east. I'd be in the corporate office, not in one of the restaurants---probably a good thing!
time to get moving. will be in sporadically .
:) me too TO
Bye TO---have a good one.
Bye again :)
Yep--I'm leaving also. Hugs all around.
Hope you get the job Mimi :)
{{hugs}} bye dear :)
{{smores}}
sorry, i don't usually stick my nose in, but we too eat of lot of the rotisserie chicken and the bones, skin, drippings in container when boiled make a lovely base for chicken soup. Just add a few veggies and tiny pasta...yum!
Hi pcal2 ... sounds yummy
Stick your nose in more often, pc! OK---now I'm gone.
and feel free to stick your nose in anytime :)
After all the food talk, my new phantom is saute! Poof.
We usually have just enough left over for a nice stir fry. Might have to try the soup though next time :)
and really easy. I boil bones etc., strain into a container and put in fridge overnight so any excess fat can be scooped off before starting soup. Thanks for the invite :-). your recipes sound yummy also.
sounds good...my dog will be disappointed though as she usually gets the skin and dripping...lol
lucky dog, smores!
:)
back for more
she's spoiled for sure...there is a pic of her in my profile enjoying her birthday "cake"...ground pork,rice and gravy...lol
Welcome back bichon :)
pretty and what a lovely name. fireworks! bye all

Alas, I have to bake my own chickens. The rotisserie ones are loaded with sodium.
true..yet so yummy
That's why they taste so good
ding ding ding for saturn!
I still roast my own occasionally...
The price is usually about the same and I tend to be lazy :)
has anyone ever tried roasting them standing up in a tube pan?
I have an awesome home made spice rub for roast chicken
Beer butt chicken, that's how I roast mine, TO
really? i never knew anyone who used that!
No, TO but I have done the beer can
Right now, I'm making chicken soup.

howdy everyone:)
Hi Crossy!
howdyscwabby
HI again :)
see peri's comment at 11:24 cross. just for you
Hi smores
howdy,smores
WTG mixi !!! woohoo :)
Oh, no, my 1:00pm patient is here early and the mother brought 3 extra kids with her. They are going wild in the waiting room.
ugh...
Good luck Scrabs :)
What are the chances that she and I will be able to talk about the baby?
the logic with coming 30 min early is we pray to be seen on time and not an hour late:))) or 3 hours late with our resident bone surgeon
not too good...
or 3 months late with our sole obgyn
1pm is the first afternoon appt and I will not sacrifice my lunch ho4 because of an early arrival. I need to decompress before the chaos resumes.
That's awful, crossy.
poor scwabby:(
used to have to bring both of mine...but if I had 4 kids...would definately have made arrangements for the other 3
we have 1,count it one obgyn for us and 2 other towns in a 70 km radius
Too many rude kids and impatient parents.
she is in such high demand they gave her her own wing in the hospital
have no idea when she sleeps or eats
Poor doc! She needs partners!
our bone surgeon got one 3 years ago,after a decade solo
Is it rude when doctors keep patients waiting?
nexy colsest for both these is an hour down the hwy at a larger town
i heard that some lawyer tryed to bill the doc for excess waiting time at his professional rates
Yes, BR. I hate when I get behind any more than 15-20 min.
lol...really??
yup,the lawyer in question did not win
Most common reasons we get behind = patient arrives late or parent asks us to see a 2nd kid.
we are lucky with our gp.he seems to have 3 or 4 in training all the time
I don't mind waiting my turn if they are actually busy..Doctor can't help if a patient takes longer
when i had my seminoma diagnosed,there was a whole lineup waiting for a look,poke and squeeze before i was allowed to go lol
3 of my partners typically end up 1 hr behind as a session progresses, then I am asked to see the kid when the parent is angry.
You were a good "teaching case", Crossy. Don't do that again.
and they all had,cold,cold hands;((
Yikes!
well with a 1/250,000 shot and the first they have seen in 4 years,it was a good teaching chance
I did however switch Dr's years ago...always had to wait at least 30min sometimes an hour...wouldn't have been that bad but I could always hear them clowning around
scabbler, may I ask how much time is alotted
That would make me angry, smores.
allowed by each patient??
for each patient.
We have 15 min for routine well child visit and sick visit, 30 min for adolescent or complicated issues.
I didn't say anything...then after the next time, I sought out a new doctor
strange though,scrabbs.when i book an appt,they never ask what the issue is.they have no idea till i walk through the door
Same as at hair salon--last time I was told it would be 5-10 min, then I heard the women laughing in back office while I waited 25 min.
Definately easy to get behind then Scrabs...thats not a lot of time if the parents have questions
so,how can they know what size slot to jame me in?
really? that seems odd crossy
they never ask,unless i bring it up myself
definitely definitely definitely
<---have walked out of hair salons before
We allot more time for complicated patients. But, yes, some parents talk a lot or need more support. We have become co-parents.
Guaranteed way to get behind is to have poor scheduling strategies.
As usual, crosshair's lawyer bias is not entirely correct: http://tinyurl.com/6h3df38
sometimes it takes longer with some of our docs because getting info out of them can be like pushing a wet rope uphill
I was kinda like that with my 1st Scrabs...I imagine most new mothers have a lot more ?'s
no,lawyer bias,just what i heard.not something to hold me to in a court of law
brb
glad you researched it for me though,br
lol...nice BR
hello again
Hiya ruby :)
our dr issues a letter to all patients regarding timing. we tell receptionist what we're coming in for, and if more than one issue, they alllow more time
and good morning everyone
so tomorrow still the day?
Heya Flosey
I don't believe I've ever waited more than 5 - 10 at most minutes to be seen
hi smores
wow...that's great
the usual waiting time at my internist's office is 2 hours
eeekkk..
eeeeek is right!
way to long
that seems totally disrespectful to patients, Annie
You should check out the link BR posted
I agree.
we are Lucky to live in a p lace where our doc makes housecalls. Neither of us wants to sit around in a waiting room full of people with flu
Agree Flosey
wonderful ruby :)
I am close to blissfully happy -- my new fridge arrived and it is gorgeous and it works! What a p leasure. And tomorrow is Raffie Day! Yay
will open BR's post when I exit BabbleExpert
Woohoo rubyfoo!! :)
several years ago, we would bring Mother to Nashville to a wonderful neurologist -- of world renown -- such a lovely woman -- so very kind to my mom who was sinking into dementia -- BUT there were times we had to wait THREE HOURS -- nuts, eh?
this started off tough, but it's been a very good day!
Raffie Day -- so exciting!!!
Expert working for you okay today Annie?
smores, yes, it is and I am very happy. God Bless Lickety!
ugh...that is nuts Une
Yay lickety!!
but I still don't know where we're meeting her "mother" -- someplace on the autoroute between Barcelona and Lyon
ruby LOL . . .
But Nadal is doing well, eh, Une.
YES, BR!!! So exciting!! :-)
When is she suppose to let you know ruby?
I hope before we get on the road!
I'm picturing Ruby tracking Raffie's microchip via web satellite LOL

Well I pray all goes smoothly for you...i
my question also LOL
talking dogs? gazooks!
hmmm...not sure where the random i came from
lol
maybe a nice rest stop area ?
can't wait to see pics of Ruby and her new baby!
she is definitely sturdy fatty
:-D
don't forget adorable
but the lady from spain has to choose one!
hi all!
Yay for new fridge, ruby! Finally! And yay for Raffie!
back in a bit . . .
Hopefully she will contact you soon with details
thank you scrabs but I tried y ou in the grid and Dr, God said no
Hi again Scrabs...that didn't take long :)
{{{sue}}}
Hey Sue :)
hi ruby and smores!
Hello, Sue
drinking gin and feeling mellow.....
hello sue and all
hi BR!
and wv!
hello teach!
Welcome back teach :)
hello ruby - such exciting news for you
How are you feelihg, teach, still better and better every day?
getting strtength back more and more each day
your dehydration story was pretty shocking!
:)
it was just as shocking for me - would never have guessed it
you don't think of that sort of thing in this "first world"
The mother didn't want to have the baby get vaccines yet, until "flu season is over." I explained that the baby is at higher risk for serious infection BECAUSE of winter and no vaccines.
??? what
what's to be done with stupid mothers, eh, scrabs?
I hope you talked her into it, scrabs!!
wow...how old is the baby?
It is fascinating to hear the reasoning of people that avoid vaccines. Where is the fear of the big, bad germs???
and what about that 15 lb baby? The mother must be diabetic
This baby is 4 mo old. All I can do is discuss signs of infections that vaccines prevent. e.g. paralysis with polio; coma from meningitis.
I wish I had some ice cream....is there any in the PB? I would happily give up any word
that's just crazy
Then we have the parent sign the Vaccine Refusal Form.
lol..ruby
Scrabs, people like that mother don't have much fear because most people do vaccinate and it is less likely her baby will catch anything
{{bichon}}
that's true bichon, since the majority are vaccinated..still, would take the chance
ice cream on the way ruby
tomorrow's the big day ruby?
hi bichon and sammysmom!
I just got an e mail from Spain and the woman said she would send me the info tonight at 10
TY mom
ooh, exciting, ruby!
<---places French Vanilla Bean ice cream and toppings on the side board
I've been dreading bad news as I hadn't heard from her
hi sue.
that's great ruby...
sacrasant
yes, smores!! or any kind of coffee or salted caramel
My mother would have murdered me if I didn't vaccinate my children
oh, boy, this has been a good day!
trouble is that vaccines have been so successful in eliminating childhood diseases that people don't remember how horrible they are - once enough people don't vaccinate their kids those diseases will be back (as is starting to happen in some areas)
very true
I can remember how we couldn't go to the beach or to pools when I was a kid and then "voila", there was the Salk vaccine and all was well again
my husban, born in Germany in 1947 suffered from diphtheria and whooping cough de to no vaccines.
yes ruby, remember that too
perhaps IA tests for potential parents would be1) a good idea (yes, you can throw tomatoes at me
it is so not worth the risk...I don't understand it
IQ* don't give me one, look at all my typos
hello everyone
at some point these parents wont have a choice because the schools will not take the kids without their vaccines
lol
ok, I have to go get some work done but it was nice to see everyone - including river! Hi and bye river!
Hi River ")
my sister, 6 yrs older, had whooping cough and chicken pox and I never caught either of them
hi and bye sue
{{river}} so happy to see you!
I had chicken pox and measles as a kid - no vaccines at that time
River, not 100 % true. Some schools will make exceptions for various reasons
yes, that was a big issue here last year. I was shocked at the # of kids sent home because their sh4s weren't up to date
((ruby)) congrats on your new frig and baby
in my area they are required
ty, river, it's been a looooong winter
I worked in two districts that *suggested* to the parents they get their kids vacs up to date, but they had not recourse if they didn't.
i had chicken pox, mumps and measles TWICE... once as a kid and then again when my kids got them... i said to dr... i thought htat you could only get them once and he said , well, now you know......
had to show their vaccination list every year with their physicals....I remember the hard time I got when my kids didnt have the chicken pox vaccine - well they didnt need it because both already had the chicken pox
same here River, however I guess there is a "against my religion" exception
I hpe that you don't g et shingles, mom, after two bouts of chicken pox
hello everyone ... diving in :)
If you do get chicken pox, you are suseptible to shingles
even my daughters college made us show proof of her shots
I have had friends that got shingles - itis nasty
that's terrible sammysmom...once is more than enough
I pray I will never get that
they didn't hve all those vaccines when I was a kid (100 yrs ago or so), but I was Lucky and ws never sick until |I got the big C
I had Shingles and even though I caught it early and was treated, it was nasty
you made up for it ruby
me too ruby.. i'm sick of being sick and tired of being tired, so i have decided to not be bothered with either any more
:)
I am having trouble typing a's on my new keyboard. It's in a bad place and my pinkie is dopey
teehee...the gin got to your pinki

hagd
smores i got the sc word from your clue. . .
ty ty
i had to run to the door so i didn't ty in a timely manner
Well then hang down your head in shame. : P
*hangs head in shame*
no can't do that. . .i have a headache and that makes it worse
the 9 means without blessing . . .
Tis okay. A belated thank you is better than no thank you at all.
haha..belated yw
That is not what the definition of the 9 says.
*puts on a sa9*
how's that?
It's okay, but I like my sack cloth and ashes better.
:)
such a snob!
Yep, offensive too. : P
yes, I am quite offended...hmpf
hehehe molls is po7!
LOL
i is nu7
:)
JMC, your English teacher Mom is going to zap you from the beyond for all those "I is" remarks. : P
haha i picked up that habit from her!
:D
she also said nekkid
and yaller
and she used to say that green icing was pie-sonous
I had a teacher email me about something that was happening "this weakend". I almost fainted.
WOW...that's really bad
the evils of automatic corrections!
stats for the L please
It seems no one can be bothered to proof read anymore.
la5/12 and plural
for some reason my fingers often add an R at the end of words. . .i can't tell you how many times i have typed infor. . .
Pretty crazy, especially coming from a teacher
And auto correct would not account for that since weakend is not a word.
Pie-sonous!!! I love it. Thats pure North Kerry accent! Boys are 'byes' , girls are 'gerrills' , and , please, don't get me started on worms.......
ty
Maybe your fingers are trying to type the rest of the word jmc
Worrummms....
it was left over from scots in the American South. . . .
it was left over from scots in the American South. . . .
lol....Hi Soodle
*hic*
Hey Smores, JMC,, Molly etc. :-)
Did I ever tell you about how my Irish grandfather taught my Mom to spell "willow wood"? Dub loo, aye, dub lell o, double dub loo, dub loh dee"
hi soodle
Makes perfect sense to me Molls.
I figured it would. : D
my how rosie the riviter has changed
:-)
nbt
That is not Rosie The Riveter. It's Brigid The Ball Buster.
well done jmc :)
Wiggling finger in my ear, shaking head, and STILL unsure what Rosie, Brigid etc means.
Soodle, the image in your icon is similar to an American World War II image referred to as Rosie The Riveter. It was created because so many women were working in factories at the time, due to increased need for munitions. They had to replace the men who had gone off to war.
Rosie the Riveter was a ficticious name representing women working in factoried during WWII
I am willing to believe that Brigid was based on Rosie
lol...beat me to it Molly :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:We_C\nan_Do_It!.jpg
Hmmm. Time to change the Soodle Icon again....
i hope i did not drive you to it. . . it was merely a comment
damn sorry about the link. . .i thought it was short enough
not to mention the damn \n in the middle
now that i have screwed things up I am off to do some work. bbl. . . 181 left
Far from it, JMC. !!
Put your sa9 back on.
And hence the phrase "who did it and ran"
LOL
*throws the sa9 at molls head and runs out of the chog laughing*
And "I" get referred to as a trouble maker here. Ha.
For those who are interested... Mom of Soodle was discharged from hospital last Friday. Far from well, but, hey, still this side of the ground! Difficulties are presenting now, regarding home help, personal care etc. Its a tough gig.....
Well, I'm glad she is out of the hospital. I understand the whole "home challenges" thing though.
Glad to hear she is doing well enough to be released...sorry though that you having problems with home care.
Is there a visit nurse org. available to you?
By the way, my sister is headed to your island again sometime this Fall.
*visiting
No way, Molly? I would move Heaven & Earth to meet her! A 'Vicarious' Babble meet!!!!
Unlikely, she is going on a guided tour of spiritual places. I doubt she will have much free time.
hi everyone! stats for the A fourth column 2nd row?
You're probably right. I'm seldom found in spiritual places!!
a+vehicle+ you and me = **
grrr...sorry dawg...you asked for stats
that's okay, smores. i'll take them anyway they come
and thank you, nbt!
Great clue, Smores. Thank you. :-)
the other 2 stats are au4/5 and plural
However, I will tell her (to quote Garth Brooks) that I have friends in low places, if she wants to go slumming. : P
lol...yw

is amazon prime really worth the money?
a lot of tv shows and newer movies are captioned now on amazon prime so we went ahead and got it and u know. its worth it. i can watch walking dead and american horror story now
80 a year.... 6.66 a month. yes. very worth it.
And the free two day shipping is great.
I guess it is. I had it briefly but cancelled it
peri: first month free, no deposit required for new accounts. so what we did was create a new account
with a new email address and yes i love the 2 day shipping!
i think i'd best list to finish this thing.
I made noodles with peanut sauce for dinner, also had fresh asparagus.
hi ruru
hiya peri
We are having fresh asparagus for Easter. It is one of my favorite vegetables.
Grilled?
i love asparagus too
braised in a little bit of water
or raw
nothing like asparagus on the grill
Ew no, not raw, thank you.
grilled and wrapped in proscuito
Can't wait for my asparagus to appear....
tons of butter
I will probably steam it Sunday since I have nothing else to put on the grill.
Arching eyebrow,.,,, doesn't asparagus do fiendish things to ones waterworks?
I have never noticed, soodle.
yes.. that's the one knock on asparagus
Here we go with the it makes your pee stink thing.
that's because you aren't pissy cos :D
soodle, dear, since you are on line would you go to the scrabble site and forfeit the game. I am getting tired of looking at it :)
lool ok i havent gone in to worok yet today so i best go in for a couple hours.. bbl :)
peri... she's been plumbed tired to play scrabble :D
Suddenly, everyone here is "dear". Except you Ru, darling.
LOL
Hello dears :)
what is going on with Soodle and the plumber, did I miss something?
Perfect timing Liz : D
;)
soods is attractive to men with low hanging pants
According to her, nothing but tea and the rosary, but we know better.
attracted too
:o)
I'm an asparagus virgin, how do you cook it?
best is steamed chrissie
or grilled
tea.. my ass...
..buttered up her crumpets I bet
I love asparagus in stir fry...
Do you eat the whole spear ruru?
no.. before you cook them you snap off the whitish end by snapping it
you need to snap off the bottom to avoid woody parts
Well, there is a big mystery as to her whereabouts on Saint Patrick's evening, so think what you wish.
All is forgiven on St Paddy's Day for us Irish....
Not saying anything about avoiding woody parts.
ty all
Haha Molly
Yay! Our governor vetoed a bill that would alllow local law enforcment to ignore a ban on assault guns...
<---surprised ruru didn't jump all over that one ;)
He is too busy snapping off by snapping
Took me ages to find the sunkissed word, it was the tricky cross over in the middle
JillyJill: You must live in Arkansas

hi all. needc clue for the 10, 9 and 8s if possible.
thanks dc..
Hi again :)
hi everyone, what mkg said :-)
sa* diego and ****** mussolini is the 9, plural for 10
now what was mussolinis name anbd spelling. working on it.
finally have all the s's.
thanks, dc!
that took me way too long
GOT THEM BOTH. SUPER GREAT CLUE DC.
any clues for the 8s? dont have any yet.
excellent clue, dc
ty, borrowed from someone earlier :)
I like clever clues ; )
I looked up the definition, kind of creepy (imho)
How's the move going, Sue?
what does it mean?
a penitential garment worn by a confessed heretic, of yellow for the penitent, of black for the impenitent.
mkg - lots of the 8s have the ending which means "more something"
no one has clues for the 8 letter words? hard to believe.
Move is going pretty well, liz, although we still have a lot to do
Good - is there any time pressure to complete?
thanks.
well, the water is getting turned off at the old house on Monday, and I'd like to turn off the gas and electric then too, but no real outside pressure at this point
i have no 8s :)
sc 8 x 2 - if you keep losing thing more than someone else does, you might be sc 8 / 45 and if you are wearing less than someone you might be sc 8 / 45 too!

lamb cam?
I got back and saw I had 20 left...was puzzled as I knew I had 50....then she walked in grinning :)
i must admit, the bairn helped me a bit this evening and got about 15 in five minutes. ishould have tied her to the computor until she had got all the words :)(just kidding,just incase some think i'm a child abuser).you have to be so careful what you say these days :(
lol...news update " girl found tied to computer desk, forced to babble, more at 11"
lamb cam is a web cam to my bairn's and my favourite farm that we can walk about and feed lambs, sheep, chickens and hold animals too.they have a barn full of ewes at the moment who are ready to give birth. i missed twins earlier

i don't think i'm going to be finishing this tonight
I'm finding this a tough grid

That's funny. I thought it was just me!
nope
there are a few fidgety lambs.i want to see a lamb born.if anyone else wants to see.it is hall hill farm in durham in england.once you are on the website you just click on4 the live web cam
no, this isn't a nice grid
cool...might check it out
Any clues for the in 6 / 7 - I assume combo
woohoo T's terminated
Hello everyone. My eyes are fuzzy trying to read this grid and all of the lists of words. Oh my.
sometimes when it is over 200 words, people think you cna sail throughn it as loads of words to find but this has been quite difficult from the start.it's all those t's.i want to put another e inbetween them
Hello all, hello Mother!
Hi mama. Nice to see you on the chat!
hi gmere:)
Hi stidg and stid - first time I've seen you in a while - so sorry to read about all you've been through :(
in+ tu4
Nice to be here. My feet are tired, I need new inserts.
hi stid.i'm so sorry to hear about everything.i hope all goes well for you and your family now and in the future.x
the last tu4
Hi lilli and liz. We have had better runs of fortune but we're tough birds.
ty smores
Hey stidg and stid :)
Thanks lilliann and liz
tyvm smores
Hope life takes an upward tu 4 now :)
:-)
ty for the in words!! got the last two or those.
yw :_
anytime you want to rant or just need some kind words. we are here stid :)
hmmm... :)
lol...left over pie in the PB lilliann :)
Mmmm. Pie.
but yeah stid...what she said :)
oh well, i'm used to putting my foot in it :)what type of pie ??
I'm cooking mustard greens and will have a nice Indian chick pea topping. I made sticky buns today also with pecans. Anything else you want in the pb?
A nice cup of coffee would go well with the rolls.
lol...Mounds Pie...my latest concoction
Sounds yummy - esp the greens with the chick pea topping
I'll go for sticky buns and coffee. Mounds Pie sounds like sugar overkill.
that sounds good to me gmere.i stuffed my face with pizza earlier and home-made cheese muffins before that.i did fancy a home-made blueberry muffin but my husband scoffed the lot :)
ooo...yummy stidg
We have got to have a buffet with a little travel inbetween courses.
hi all, can anyone give me a clue for the re6-24...please
Oh, all the blueberry muffins, gone. I do love them and haven't made any all winter.!
Gran Mere, I still think your progressive meals across the country is a great idea.
hi gypsy.sorry, i only have 1 re so far so i'm no help
Me neither - just looking for them now
thanks anyway lil
that sounds great gmere:)
re + winged night rodent + vowel, plural
i will have a look now gypsy
ty Molly
ty molly
:))))) ty should have seen that!
ca 6 / 24 please?
gmere. i have bought myself an electric cupcake/muffin maker and last night i also made mini omelettes in it and i had 2 and my husband scoffed the rest of those aswell
like the prickly plants but diff 3rd letter
Phew! 50 to go! Seems like a marathon.
i won't bother clueing now.good clue smores
ty smores - some great clues today, thanks to all :)
86 here :(
1
need a few more to get half way. darn. much work to do as well. any sup-er clues out there for weird words?
Finished!!!
stats for the 9 & 10, please?
sa9/66 plural for sa10/84
yay!wtg smores!!
WTG smores! Congrats :)
Mother, I tried to call, but the phone is going to message/
wooohooo smores!
ty,ty
YAY smores!
L, you and your kitchen gadgets. First the raclette and now a mini muffin maker. You must have a big kitchen.
ooh, fidgety sheep.i really wish one of them would give birth now and stop mucking about! :)
:)
i also have an electric cake pop maker and we made mini pizza balls molly.no, my kitchen isn't that big so my husband keeps reminding me and then the bairn now has a go as she is too much like her dad, even though she loves using them
but it saves me putting the oven on and wasting more electric and paying extra on the bill
Good defense. : D
i thought so :)
clue for ra 5 and ra 6 - after the spots, please.
Your brother called and is coming up Saturday with puppies.
Call now if you like.
ra and sunkissed colour
Oh! New puppies - doesn't replace, I know but how lovely!
ty lilli - I'd tried that with a double consonant.
i did too liz
These are our son's puppies. Right now mama has hands full with how to build new house and so on.
That's a huge task, I realise. But still lovely to spend time with them.
I didn't mean to sound thoughtless!
Quite so, liz. We are just so thankful for all the blessings we have.
Liz, never would think that :)
Fireworks... is the sa9 a word anyone here had heard of? I hadn't.
That's a great way to think, stidg.
ty smores - I know I wouldn't and most people who know me, would know that but I still hate to cause offence, however inadvertently.
No Grem, never heard of it.
Congrats gremlinn :)
Good evening Babblers. Back for my last 85.
wtg gremlin! i hadn't but alot of babble words are ones i haven't heard before
Hmm, apparently it's also a word if you change the third letter to M
WTG Gremlinn...I knew it as a city in TX..never knew it otherwise
wtg gremlinn
Hiya wht
Hi wht :)
People are getting way too sensitive about offending in here. Say what you have to say and if someone takes offense, that is entirely their problem.
you weren't thoughtless liz.it's very hard to know what to say in these circumstances.all we can do is be there and chat when needed
hi wht
That's one viewpoint - but I still don't like offending people!
We are going to put finishing touches on our dinner now Liz. Wish we could all join around the table. Enjoy your holidays!
Bon appetite - enjoy your evening
you too gmere. tc
I understand Liz, but it's the intention behind the words. You never mean to offend and I think that is clear.
Point taken!
And I do agree - some people do take offence too easily :)
by the way liz, i was going to say something along the lines as you with the puppies but you beat me to it.we both misunderstood what gmere said witht he puppies
That's the prob with written words - can't see the expression
It's two dimensional communication.
Well, I still enjoy the chat here and like most of the people.
exactly.sitting and typing words is so different than sitting and talking to someone
me too liz :)
Until people start playing babble on Skype!!
Or facetime or any other of these real sci-fi inventions!
I can't wait to get a neural implant so I can be lazy and just think words at people.
I like that idea!
Oh that could be ugly. So many people play in their jammies and some play with less than that on.
gremlin, that sounds brilliant.i want one
agree..that's why people shouldn't take things so seriously...at least be certain of what was meant before getting all upset
Yuck, Molly!
I am just as glad that people can't hear the words I am think at them sometimes.
can i get clues for the two L words?....racked my brain and going nowhere fast...
lol
LOL
Me too Wht
la + most of Beatles song ha** days night
la+ ***d not soft then plural
too much there - sorry!
la + a backwards cheer.
:)
thanks! got both... :oD
plus, we have to remember that we are all from countries from around the world and have different meanings to words.so what is good in one country isn't in another.look at the american word for fanny...totally different from ours in the uk.i was going to say look at your fanny, which would have been even worse here..lol
Time to leave the computer for a while!!! 37 for later!
lol wht, me too
Good point lilli!
LOL lilliann...so true
Good luck lamb watching! But you know they'll wait until just that moment when you take your eyes off them!!!
hs
Look at your own fanny L. : P
ty for the la's ladies :0
<--admits to being a fanny fan :)
i know liz...bloody sheep..lol i'll probably still be here when you come back :)
Baaa
lol molly. i have so many replies to that, but i'm keeping my mouth shut. i offend enough people :D
i don't want to go there smores..lol
This would be a really boring chat if everyone was all prim and proper all the time. Actually, it gets that way sometimes and it is boring.
hmmm...guess I should've found out what the UK meaning is before that last post :)
it can't be nice though. there ars quite a few sheep in this barn and they are weeing and pooing and then having to lie in it, bless em
yuck
female parts smores :)
*Starts rumors about Smores*
ROFL
Really??
rofl smores.....you have made my day and cheered me up...i can't stop laughing
Brings a whole new meaning to The Bee Gees song Fanny Be Tender : P
<----takes back 8:27 comment
:D
you are so right molly.sometimes it does geta bit too serious, which is nowt wrong with that but, i sometimes think i'm out of place because of the chat
Too late, rumors already in the mill.
too late smores
Noooooo
LOL
sometimes, i wish that we could remove our chat on here
yep
you mean like edit it?
yes penquis
that would be nice
like the 1st time when I tried to babble on my tablet
and hi
why, what did you do smores?
I said "Hi Bich"
you can guess what it autocorrected to
the first time on here, i stumbled onto the chat.i'm not good with computors or tablets, actually anything electrical and i was playing babble and i put a word in the chat.i hadn't even realized and i got told off for it
oh...lol
how rude...I'm glad you still came back :)
Well, except for the people who read over ever word of the chat archives (because they have no life) chat is here and then gone.
and i still get into trouble now, so nowt new there then :)
Yes, I was very new then too and was completely mortified
BRB
What's wrong with Hi Bich? I say that to Bichon all the time.
That is why the Penalty Box is such a good idea. It is a good natured way of noting our mistakes.
i know molly, but we never forget and neither do some babblers as they have a computorized memory...a bit like someone else here i know :)
there is nowt wrong with bich, i shorten loads of names, but her auto thing put in another word
probably bitch, by the sounds of it
Well, if people want to get all hung up and obsessed with something someone said, and then apologized for, that is for them to deal with. You are only responsible for your side of the street.
very true molly.now can you put my last 80 words in the chat please ;D
You know, I read a lot about how auto correct screws things up and I have no clue why people don't turn it off.
i do use it on my phone as it saves my fingers but i always check what it has put
I'm back :)
and yes, it auto corrected to Bitch
true wht.but sometimes our mistakes are mis construed and people still have a go or if you jokingly say pb to someone, they jump down your throat
Lol...I always check too lilliann....now
sabe
it happened to me recently, so i'm never saying pb again
Well L, some people just like having a go. It's in their overly dramatic nature.
ty sudo, by the way i love your pugs :)
sorry keep typing in the wrong spot I will go to the pb is there still pie
need to look at sheep
true...there are those who love to complain and argue
lol...yes Sudoku
Last I heard there was some old, tired, leftover pie in there. I will put some fresh chocolate peanut butter chip cookies in there to liven things up.
My pie is neither old nor tired thank you
sod the pb, just throw them down my throat molly :D
:D
me too! We have a family of them. I am so glad there is still pie! I love when people put treats in there it makes goofing up worth it.
And for Gods sake, people need to lighten up. The Penalty Box is a joke, all in good fun, ha ha. What's up with getting in a snit about it?
can i get a clue for the sa 7/32 please?
i don't have it yet pen sorry
no problem...thanks anyway...
*** Diego +Gilligan took a 3 hour ****
i'm loving your snow bunny smores.did you make it?
ty got multiple words from that
thanks!
thanks lill , yes I built it Monday
yw :)
he's a lump now...which is fine by me :)
ty smores
:)
The Easter Lump
lol...yep
aww..well, you could make him into an egg now
:)
you are obviously a crafty person to think of something like that
as well as build it
it'll be all the way gone tomorrow...another nice sunny day :)
eh...sometimes...I have my moments lol
did you use food colouring for the eyes,nose and ears?
no, the ear are cut from a plastic plate, as is the mouth...a red checker for the nose and some old dried up playdoh for the eyes :)
i think you're being bashful.i think you are a crafty person but either not admitting it or you don't realize how good you are.
:) thanks...maybe a little of both
rest my case....
:) i wish you lived near me, we could be crafty together :)
that would be fun :D
*Starts rumor about Smores and L*
LOL
but don't mention the fa word molly lol
<---tosses leftover cream pie at Molly :D
:)
cream pie?
To4es? Really? Get thee to the Penalty Box!!
And I can handle cream pie, just don't to4 that sticky Mounds mess at me.
it's alright smores, as you'll get molly's chocolate chip cookies
hmpf.."stomps off to PB...thoroughly insulted"
omg molly, i could say so much to your last comment but i am going to keep my mouth shut for a change..lol
lol..the Mounds pie is a cream pie...didn't really use mounds bars
lol..lilliann
mounds bars?
I refuse to go Google whatever the heck y'all UK people call a Mounds Bar.
it wasn't the mounds bar that got me laughing
hmmm...pondering
it is...well, i'm not saying, but i think a lot of men and british people will know what i was thinking.i'd need to tell you both in private
anyway, what is a mounds bar?
chocolate covered coconut candy
lets just say, it must be my dirty mind!
It's so cool to talk dirty in British and have no idea what I'm saying.
:D
I think we would both get into trouble over there Molly :)
i wonder if that is like our ...i can't remember what we call it. we get dessicated coconut, covered either in milk or dark chocolate
you may well get in trouble here too :)
teehee
i can't say on here what it meant as i would be kicked off by alot of people
walks up to store clerk " excuse my where are your fanny packs?"
All I can say is that I feel sorry for all the people named Fanny and John Thomas.
*me
:D
L are you referring to the "not fruit" pie?
i've just seen a ewe drink another ewe's wee whist she was peeing..not something i want to remember and then she head butted another ewe in the bottom...what a horrible ewe
what??? eewww
fruit pie, i was talking about coconut
that would make anyone sheepish
john thomas is a good welsh name. i looked after a john thomas and his dad was called ivor john thomas lol
Never mind. Go back to your weeing and pooing sheep.
hey ruru :)
hi ru
*kitties and puppies anyone?*
nope
:D
How about bacon? We just never talk ENOUGH about bacon in here.
bacon wrapped kittens?
since bacon Scope, bacon has jumped the shark.
can I still have pie?
and for people that don't know.john thomas is a name for a man's appendage
Oh praise the Lord. I have been praying for the day that bacon would jump the shark.
and his wife Fanny...lol
gee.. I"ve never heard that before
i have been so put of pie now :)
*Making a mushy peas pie especially for L*
lol smores
you have a mind like me smores
scary isnt it? :D
bacon will never jump the shark.not until we get bacon infused vegetables;))
or bacon sented toliet bowl cleanr
And bacon Scope is truly a disgusting idea.
lol..hey crossy
or bacon scented floor cleaner
ewww...crossy
no, i'm liking it. i'm glad someone is on the same wave length as me smores :)
:)
and what about bacon frosting?
not everyone has ru
<---Wishes she had kept her mouth shut
Agree Molly..that's just gross
hi crossy
and bacon flavoured peglyte for ct scans
now look what you have4 done molly.there was nowt wrong with sheep
howdy lillian
lol...agreed to the scope, not you keeping your mouth shut
or pie :)
goodnight all and remember,bacon will never jump the shark.too many ways for it to go yet..though pumpkin is a hot second
Night crossy :)
my nephew is a chef....he made a strawberry cake with bacon bits on the top....everyone really liked it...weird, I know
I like bacon...I like strawberries..but I don't think so
Bacon and sweet stuff grosses me out.
bye crossy
don't you like waffles with maple syrup and bacon?
doesn't appeal to me either
It's the whole sweet and salty trend. People are now gaga for chocolate with sea salt on it.
okay..youre right pen...I do dip my bacon in syrup sometimes
i might have been really nice pen but i must admit, i like my savoury seperate to my sweet.i don't like apple in salads,pineapple on pizza and my pizza place likes to put pineapple in my salad. what is that about?
I agree L, pineapple on pizza grosses me out too.
I do like chocolate and pretzels
i must admit, i don't understand your bacon with maple syrup or sweet waffles
yum...choc. and pretzels....
definately no pineapple on my pizza or salad
we also have sea salt chocolate covered caramels...
berries in salad is good though
the salty flavor enhances the chocolate flavor
Yep, sea salt on everything these days. Load it up with sodium!
i couldn't eat those either pen. but i am more of a savoury person, but i do like sweet and sour chicken or duck in orange or plum sauce but they are all sauces and i can put as much as i like on my meat.i can't do with pieces of fruit with my savoury dishes
hi all
well we don't eat chocolate for our health either, lol...
Hi TO :)
well i agree with you about the pineapple on pizza or salad....yuck
i don't eat much chocolate and if i fancy some i have the high cocoa solid one, so i only need 1 chunk at a time as it is bitter
you mean chocolate isn't a major food group?
hi TO :)
guess i am going to head out....got 30 left but getting nowhere....
yes I prefer the dark chocolate too
can clue if ya like pen
you are way ahead of me pen :0
too many and i would have to check all my words on the lickety list....too much work...thanks anyway....
i like to just type up all the words i can find without lickety first...

lol...nu7
bu7 was a misfinger folks
nu7/32

It took them FIVE HOURS to figure that out?
smores how many nu7's?

i had my school book. . .

but i did find out yesterday my niece had bladder cancer (my email got dropped off the list) and today that it was small and not invasive and it all looks good
yw
omg, that is bad, but saying that garages do charge a fortune and especially to woman.we had a programme here showing that they charged woman more than a man as we're not mechanical.saying that alot of men aren't either.i'm glad my husband is a mechanic
wow jmc...quite a day
no i had a garage try to sell me brakes and i told them to take a hike. . . i usually ask them for the schematics. . . and they become well behaved
i'm not glad your'e niece has bladder cancer but i'm glad that they can treat it jmc. i hope all goes well for her
I am just glad that I found a mechanic that I can trust.
then i had class tonight...its been a long day
i thought i had in the neighborhood but they hired an new manager and . . . well they will not get my business again
ugh...
"pours jmc a drink"
no ice thanks
agrees with smores, put your feet up jmc and enjoy a drink
The first time I went there, over 30 years ago, when I picked up my car, they hadn't figured out the bill yet. The mechanic said, "The keys are in the car. Come back tomorrow and pay for it." I figured he had to be trustworthy.
wow.. that's cool wht...weird yet cool
they have to be to say that wht
yey this neighborhood place was like that until the new manager. . .now they overcharge and try to sell me things i don't need. . .
when my husband is away and can't fix my fil's car then he takes it to a garage and they don't charge him straight away, but, there have been problems with the car because they didn't fix it properly the first time and when my husband is home and takes it back to the garage he doesn't take any crap as he knows but my fil will believe everything they say
Any lambs yet? Hi mmc :)
jmc
hi liz
It was also the type of place that I look for anyway. They don't sell gas and they are not on a main road. A side street mechanic has to be good and fair because they depend on repeat business.
No lambs, just lots of weeing and pooing.
saabs never have just one problem
wb liz, no, not at the moment:(
And mint sauce!
clue for the sa7, please
omg. one has just had one and i missed it again
And Wht, I bet your mechanic actually gets in the car to diagnose a problem...instead of plugging it into a computer.
i have to go back
the rest are
this is the first time i had to take my saab in for anything but the usual maintainence ru
so true wht
you're not just stringing us aloin are you liz?
Told you that'd happen!
lil you missed the lamb being born? too bad. . .
lol ru :)
... just the beginning of saab hell jmc ... *evil laugh*
Actually, he does use the computer sometime. Like when my check engine light kept coming on.
*** Diego + a 3 hour ****
that my floor mat needs to be kept in its proper place? some kind of hell
Molly: is that your recipe?
What recipe?
I had a Saab 96 a long time ago. I didn't know how many miles were on it, but since neither the engine or the odometer were original, it didn't seem to matter.
ty smores
clue for the so 6 / 7 pls - my last 7!
and they fixed the leak that was such a problem .. .apparently a design problem fixed in later models and when a customer comes in they have a part to retrofit the older models
yw
ty smores
what was wrong with your car je?
if someone even tried to give me a saab... I would never take it
so + vowel + Saab is a ***
*Arranges to return Ru's birthday present*
the floor mat was out of place and keeping my clutch from going all the way in. . . and with the new "safety" devices that meant it wouldn't start
bro's inlaws all had thema nd loved them
ha
now a jaguar. . . there is a car you could not sell me. . .
oh my! i hope he found that BEFORE he did all the expensive tests!
ty again smores - sorry for the delay - also looking at pics my friends from Vancouver are posting on fb - they just got home from Aus!
Neener. That's what you get for driving a stick shift.
Fireworks
my friend bought Lee Marvins jaguar (which was named Baby) and I gave him a ride to work nearly every day
whoo hoo wht
WTG wht !!! :)
i'm with you i am going to look at volvos next week but also the small buick
WTG wht :)
TO he figured it out, gave me a free new ignition switch just in case, and resolved my water leak issue all for $192
i will drive a stick as long as i can molls. . .i feel safer in one. . .more control. . . .
did you need a new ignition switch?
... my clutch days are over...
geez i just accidentally pasted my word list into chat
he said if he was wrong about the mat that rather than have me stranded he would throw in the ignition switch because that would be the next likely solution. . .
glad you didn't hit enter like i did that time TO
pretty cheap.
wtg wht!
oh, i did it twice within a week or so
i thought so. . .
oooh, fruit loop bird alert!
there's nowt wrong with stick shifts molly :)
:)
haha
okay i am heading to bed. . .got to get some work done before the baseball game tomorrow
Good night jmc
Night jmc...sleep well :)
Night jmc - sleep well :)
And I need to be off as well.
night jmc, tc
167 left. . .*poof*
Good night wht :)
opening day tomorrow? dres warmly.
Stick shifts are too much work, especially for stop and start city driving.
night wht
molly: is that your recipe I have tried EVERY iteration of mug cake but this is the only one that worked!!!
I agree Molly
And I don't feel the need to be "in control" or be "one with my transmission".
she just likes a stick in her hand
shift
i'm giving up on lamb cam.they keep being born when i'm not looking. there are 3 new lambs and if they wander near another ewe they get head butted
:)
If you got the recipe out of Smores profile, that is her recipe. Mine is different, it's for cake, not a brownie.
lamb camb?
well, most of our cars are stick shift. i couldn't use an automatic
aww...poor babies
well i have never had one work before, it was cakelike
I have gotten a lot of laughs out of your lamb cam experience L. : D
i added an extra 1/2tsp cocoa and sp sugar and chips
It's a great way to make a small cake. I have a recipe for caramel apple too.
i am guessing they are being born in a barn not under a snowdrit? that poor sheep they dug out!
The one in my profile is one I adjusted cause the one I had didn't work
yes ru.a farm near where i live has a lamb cam. they are a working farm but are also open to the public.you can feed lambs, sheep, horses etc and hold guinea pigs, rabbits and chicks.it is hall hill farm in county durham, england. go on their sit and then you can watch on the web cam
with the hot cocoa...i tried three or our from on line and made adjstments till i got sick of the whole proess. they allsucked.
sounds good TO ... my daughter made it the other day with Reeses chips..
oh..wow
no, these are under cover To, the ones that have suffocated are probably hill sheep
Wait, there is no chocolate syrup in Smores recipe.
just wished i had ice cream or whippped cream. much better than the icing i made for yesterday's craving
<---off of sweets now
:)
going to bed....goodnight all and thanks for the help!
Never mind, misread TO's comment.
Night pen :)

hi and bye Jilly :)
it is nearly 4am and i'm still wide awake
found it nvm
Good - was trying to think how to clue it!
Lamb watching will do that to you!
bye jilly tc:)
lol ty anyway! yes.. fluffy yiummy lambs
i end up sleeping alot throughout the day liz because of my disabilities, so i'm awake at night :)
the lambs aren't helping though :)
I'm sure that whenever you sleep, your body gets what it needs!
I'm glad you're here at night though. It's fun chatting!
i thought scuta was a word
it is
lil what is the addy for the webcam?
the grid isnt accepting it
I agree with TO
UGH yes it is.. dumb me
aww, thanks hin,me too.but you're right, i sleep when my body needs it, so that is day and night
i don't actually know the addy TO. if you put in hall hill farm in durham,uk, you should get it and then when you go on4 their site it will have live webcam.if you can't get it let me know
they're not doing much at the moment but you can see a couple of lambs at the end of the barn with their mams
so6 please?
so 6 - small french coin + vehicle (and pl)

i was giving a clue until i saw liz's. good clue liz

a knickname for one of my daughters: cuta.
have you got an addy for them TO.are they having piglets now?
cu + double letter + hospital trauma unit
Clue for either tu 6 pls?
i must admit, i used to love pot bellied pigs until we went to an animal park and one literally rammed me,bit my inner thigh,took a bite out of my cushion on my wheelchair and then went underneath and tried to head butt me out of my chair.horrible pig.my husband had to literally push her away.
i don't have any of the tu6's sorry liz
tu + double snake letter + vowel then a constant (for both, different last letter)

i'm actually looking for that one now marc :)
in6 help please?
nm- minkeys woke up
in+tu4/5 going around the corner
ty Marc
ha! and hello! (that lamb cam is hilarious - you see nothing moving - and then all you can see are a couple of mouths, chewing!)
I got it add a vowel to the cu5 before it
hi welki.yes they like to lie down and eat, and then all of a sudden a few get up.you can't see the sheep at the far end with the lambs so much now. they must have very recently moved the camera
yep, when one moves, it starts a chain reaction - i love it!
you can see a lamb now feeding from her/his mam welki
but i can see a lamb now!!
thanks for this, lilliann - i have a friend who will LOVE this site
yvw welki
<-- would rather watch the sheep than finish this grid
me too :)
ty marc
i give up - too tired to finish. g'night folks - and thanks for 'lamb cam' :)
(and now there's another lamb near the far right wall (near a section of fence)
goodnight welki, tc hin and yw
i just saw it.sorry i went to the loo :)
there are a few restless ones and one was straining earlier
phot
Is that Hall Hill farm Lilli?
i already have that one but ty dc :)
yes liz
Cute - they look very snuggly!
you can just see some lambs moving in the far corner
Can see a couple of little lambs in the back corner
is it 5am when the new grid starts?
as in my time
Yes - 15 mins to go!
When do UK clocks change? This weekend?
never going to do it.54 left. our clocks go forward on sunday
Bet you can get close!
for me, close isn't good enough. i either have to finish or don't start
it's the gemini in me :)
can i have a clue for the po6 please
Actually I agree! That's why I hadn't done a grid for 2 weeks! Really short of time. Knew I didn't stand a chance of finishing!
i was watching sheep too long :0
po 6 = pan + fire residue
po + abbreviation for what some men grow on their faces - but spelt like the stuff left over from fires
So concise Diz :)
ty diz and liz
lol Liz
re5 and 6 please
Be good if the lambs / sheep were jumping fences - then I'd watch at night!
re + a place where you buy drinks (and pl)
they're boring like this in the day too.but they don't have much space
ty liz
That's sad for them
45 left
i suppose when you're in labour..i know i didn't want to be jumping about..lol
Do they get into fields, when not in labour?
when a few have their lambs they then put in a couple more
It's not like battery farming is it?
once they ahve had the lambs, they are put into a poly tunnel at the moment because of the cold weather
omg no. this a great farm and they have fields for miles with them in it
Ah! OK - so they're not always cooped up like this. That's fine :)
we go all the time and you go for miles and can feed the sheep with pellets
no
Bit like feeding kangaroos at the sanctuary near here then!!! LOL!
i suppose this is better for them at the moment as they can keep an eye on them, they can't in the fields and i have watched country file or something and all farms put their pregnant ewes into barns
they also have some wallabys at the farm
Guess I don't know much about lambing!
Can you feed them?
aww, you have a kangaroo sanctuary?
Wildlife sanctuary - Currumbin - you can google it
i think they do it, so if a ewe gets into trouble, they can help, at the end of the day, it is money to a farmer
just a question about sheep....do the keep the rams in the same paddocks as the ewes? or just at certain times of the year
i'm writing it down to google in a bit liz
It's a lovely place. We often go there and are members.
Currumbin is a great place
i'm not sure diz
3 minutes to get 45, do you think i'll do it?? lol
We were up at Steve Irwins zoo and heard people saying they preferred Currumbin - we certainly do.
ru7 after the weakest one please
hello everyone :)
haven't been to Steve Irwins yet
Put a double consonant in teh middle
more runny lillian
i take it that is australia zoo?
