Hi Ruby. Hope you're having a great time with your family :)

2:26 am

I think ghastly would be a good descriptive word/ They're leaving tomorrow and I'll send you an e-,ail

2:26 am

G-d for Xanax!

2:26 am

that was thank et

2:27 am

who invented it, G-d or Pfizer?

2:27 am

Ok - no further questions! Is it safe to asks how the dogs are?

2:27 am

Actually, more importantly, are you ok?

2:28 am

Rufie's hot spots are clearing up but he hates and is afraid of John

2:28 am

and Denise talks baby talk.....

2:28 am

I am going to scteam.....SCREAMING!!!!!

2:28 am

Hugs and lots of them

2:30 am

and John has mastered th art of sarcastic condesension {sp??}, just like his father {my ex}

2:31 am

:( really sad for you.

2:31 am

I have missed this, but, among other things, John says I'm an addict both to online games, online friends and meds

2:31 am

very disappointing

2:31 am

Not his "problem"

2:31 am

he calls me crazy

2:32 am

He doesn't have to live your life and cope with some of the things you've talked about.

2:33 am

"crazy dog person" is one of his snide names for me

2:33 am

Not an animal lover then!

2:34 am

he doesn't undertand the way I am with the dogs; I guess h thinks that talking baby talk to them is better.....

2:34 am

He dogsat for one week and has become the world's leading expert, thinks all dogs had be perfectly trained, doesn't understand the ways in which chows are unique

2:34 am

Don't understand why anyone would baby talk to animals or children!

2:35 am

and are independent like cats

2:35 am

One week doesn't make you an expert

2:35 am

and Denise keeps say ing "good dog" or "bad dog" or "no" at inappropriate times.

2:36 am

Breathe a big sigh of relief tomorrow

2:36 am

and says what sane person gives dogs cheese but I would like to know how else you an give them antibiotics

2:36 am

can*

2:37 am

at least I will be able to send some photos now

2:37 am

You give dogs tablets however you can! Not an easy task

2:37 am

Or any medication

2:37 am

My first dog would happily take her pill and then 5 minutes later, she would spit it out in another room

2:38 am

Good, I'll look forward to seeing some. Did your son sort out the other computer glitches for you?

2:38 am

srt of

2:38 am

Sneaky dog. I remember my mum giving pills to our dog. He hated it!

2:39 am

uh oh, rufe is having a barking fit; I'll have to go upstairs and join the family

2:39 am

I recommend pills wrapped up in strasburg (spelling?)

2:39 am

Hi Ruby and Liz

2:39 am

Hi Lyn

2:39 am

{{lynxx}}

2:39 am

I assume that's a type of sausage

2:39 am

you missed my whining; poor iz was patiently listening.....

2:40 am

oh - and crushed and mixed into pate or similar

2:40 am

Np ruby- that's what friends are for :)

2:40 am

sausage, cream cheese, ham or anything. The vets all say the dogs like the pills but unless you struggle to get it down their throats, it is much easier to wrap the neds in cream cheese

2:41 am

I agree

2:42 am

Me too

2:42 am

I'm really going to spend my time struggling with a dog for 10 days of twice a day neds NOT!

2:43 am

cees

2:43 am

As if!

2:43 am

worry, off I go

2:43 am

sorry*

2:47 am

there's a Fr fish in here se6/24

2:52 am

eses

2:54 am

*woof* fron the crazy dog lady....

5:23 am

Poor Ruby. I'm not sure what's worse. A know it all son, or his wife who talks baby talk. *Sending virtual good vibes to Ruby*

5:33 am

6:03 am

6:04 am

You guys will get it. It's one of those weird long words that you pretty much only see in Babble.

6:05 am

6:06 am

6:09 am

wtg smores! I had this lovely clue ready for you... if Bill Gates died and left all his money to you and Molly, Molly would be your ...." :)

6:10 am

and we would both be ri4 :)

6:10 am

Oh isn't that a lovely thought (no ill will towards Gates)

6:10 am

for sure!

6:11 am

:D

6:11 am

indeed, may he live long and keep prospering.

6:11 am

I'd just like to sign up to be one of his charitable donations : D

6:12 am

lol..yep

6:12 am

6:25 am

fireflies. Very nice grid! Anything I can help with before I go?

6:26 am

WTG sprite .... wow I just now got to 1/2 :)

6:27 am

good job!

6:27 am

6:28 am

*hugs* to you both. Have a lovely day!

6:29 am

ok, ch8/50 x 2, co8/50

6:29 am

Alas, Smores, we can not all do a 243 word grid in less than an hour.

6:30 am

Definately not :D

6:30 am

he8/50 (another word I only ever see in babble) ma8/45

6:30 am

thanks sprite :)

6:30 am

sometimes a grid of hardly 100 words takes me 2 hours, sometimes a big one is fast. This grid has lots and lots of se6 of words.

6:31 am

I was quite happy with getting to 1/2 this quick...lol

6:31 am

:) Have fun!

6:31 am

The he and ma 8's are oddball weird, Smores.

6:32 am

You too sprite...bye :)

6:38 am

got the he and ma Molly...definately weird

6:41 am

Maybe I live a sheltered life, but I just never have the occasion to talk about Greek prostitutes of old. : D

6:41 am

LOL...nope

6:46 am

Back in a bit...gotta grab a bite

6:47 am

Hi all :)

6:47 am

Hi Liz

6:48 am

Hi Molly - shame your name was spelt incorrectly in the last grid!

6:48 am

Can you clue the he and ma 8s please? I don't have either!

6:48 am

It's okay. It separates me from the little black fishies. : D

6:50 am

h + arrival abbreviation at the airport + Viking "The Red's" first name

6:51 am

Thanks - I'd never have monkeyed that!

6:51 am

ma8...grain used in beer + plural of what you put flowers in, leave off the first letter

6:51 am

Now I also understand the Greek courtesan comment!

6:52 am

Thanks again - I was upset that it wasn't the UK candy, maltesers!

6:53 am

Does the first part of that put me in the pb?????

6:55 am

clue 4 the 9 please

6:55 am

Joint female inheritor

7:01 am

We will overlook your partial PB infraction : D

7:02 am

got the first bit cant get the second bit

7:02 am

Thanks - appreciated - it was my longing for a yummy choccy!

7:02 am

Put the female suffix at the end

7:02 am

cool.girl - the ending is like the Scottish Lake monster

7:03 am

Well, almost!

7:03 am

that just makes it a 7

7:04 am

Clue for oc 7 please (and no, I don't have the 5 before it)

7:04 am

Joint...two letter prefix meaning joint

7:06 am

oc + not him + past tense

7:07 am

Ah! I forgot about US spellings!

7:07 am

co9...two letter prefix meaning joint + one who gets money from a will + female suffix

7:07 am

ty

7:09 am

ty

7:09 am

Oh, those pesky US spellings : P

7:09 am

LOL

7:13 am

Hi again

7:13 am

Evening Liz :)

7:14 am

Hi smores - good morning to you :)

7:14 am

<---Usually just says "hi" because then I don't have to figure out what time it is where : D

7:15 am

I have the advantage of the chog showing the US time

7:15 am

Me too..except when I see one of our lovely Aussie players :)

7:16 am

:)

7:19 am

I was all set for my favorite omelet not knowing I was out of Swiss ch6...just wasn't the same with cheddar :(

7:20 am

That's so disappointing - you look forward to something and then it's just not right!

7:20 am

*Hands Smores a tissue*

7:21 am

Yep...and silly me had the onions, mushrooms and spinach already in the pan before I realize it

7:21 am

Handing smores Swiss ch6 would be better

7:21 am

Sounds yummy

7:21 am

Thanks Molly ..."sniff"

7:21 am

lol

7:21 am

That sounds like a great omelette, with the cheddar, minus the fungus.

7:22 am

not a mushroom fan huh?

7:22 am

Glad to see the UK spelling th 5, Molly ;)

7:22 am

I'll have it the way you described, please.

7:23 am

<----loves sauteed mushrooms and onions

7:24 am

We had buttermilk blueberry pancakes and sage sausage. : D

7:24 am

Me too - also love spinach!

7:24 am

We had salmon for dinner!

7:24 am

mmm...sounds yummy Molly

7:24 am

Love blueberries - very expensive at the moment here.

7:24 am

Just wanted to join in with the meal chat!

7:25 am

:)

7:26 am

I had kinda forgotten about sage sausage...haven't had any in years.

7:27 am

We are having fish for dinner too Liz..tilapia though

7:28 am

Had that on Thursday, I think it was.

7:28 am

Stuffed myself on sausages at a barbecue last night - definitely needed something lighter tonight. Weight not friendly today!

7:29 am

Sausages??...I thought you only ate fish

7:29 am

Why did you think that?

7:30 am

hmm...maybe thinking of someone else

7:30 am

Possibly because I'm kosher - so don't eat bacon.

7:30 am

for some reason I thought you were a vegatarian..except for fish

7:31 am

Not me!

7:31 am

lol :)

7:32 am

Oh I know..it was when you were getting ready for your citizenship...you mentioned they were doing a BBQ but they would have salad

7:32 am

Hate it when I can't find a 4 letter word!

7:33 am

Ah! That's because it wasn't kosher!

7:33 am

yep...still got a bunch of 4's

7:33 am

32 words left but only 4 x 4's - bit frustrating! But I'll find them!

7:34 am

ahh..okay

7:34 am

100 left for me

7:35 am

It's not a bad grid, so far. Couple of really weird words - clues have helped.

7:35 am

but not looking to hard ..currently petting a kitty and chatting :)

7:36 am

Chatting and thinking about bed and a book!

7:36 am

Or more accurately, bed and an iBook!

7:36 am

:)

7:38 am

ha...finally found my last D de5...no wonder I missed it :)

7:38 am

Abbreviation!

7:39 am

I thought Kosher meant no pork

7:39 am

and I think it is a crazy thing to do to coffee :)

7:39 am

It does but it's more complex than that.

7:39 am

also the way meat is prepared Molly

7:40 am

There are a huge number of dietary laws - some of which I follow - there are many people who observe much more strictly than me!

7:41 am

okay Liz...silly ?...what the heck is up with Kosher pickles?

7:41 am

???

7:41 am

:D

7:41 am

Ah, I guess I was thinking of the Biblical cloven hoof chews no cud thing.

7:42 am

That's part of it - but it's in the way the animal is killed too and not mixing milk and meat products.

7:42 am

Not sure what you mean about pickles

7:42 am

Kosher dill pickles...how can a pickle be kosher or not

7:43 am

Ah! I think it's just the style of pickling!

7:43 am

A pickle is a pickle is a pickle!!!!

7:43 am

to me anyway. Someone else might have another answer.

7:43 am

:)

7:44 am

I just always thought that was funny

7:45 am

According to our friend Google, Kosher dill means no animal fat in the brine. Which is gross and I never use it when I make pickles.

7:45 am

I don't think I ever thought about it. I used to buy sweet and sour pickles in the UK but they taste different here, so I buy the dill ones - I'll think about it every time now!!!! LOL

7:45 am

Why would there be animal fat in brine?

7:45 am

I must say though, Hebrew National is the only hot dogs I'll eat

7:46 am

eww...now I will make sure to just buy kosher pickles

7:46 am

It's in manufactured dills and they use polysorbates in the brine, which contain animal fat. Another reason to make your own everything.

7:47 am

Hebrew National and Nathan's are the only hot dogs I buy.

7:48 am

Interesting. Can't get either of those brands here! I miss the hot dogs that I used to get in England - perhaps if I lived in Melbourne or Sydney - but can't get the same things here.

7:48 am

and I love Hebrew Nationals slogan ' We answer to a higher authority"

7:48 am

LOL!

7:48 am

:D

7:49 am

OK - Almost 11pm here and a few things to do before bed. Fun chatting, as ever. Catch you soon and enjoy your days :)

7:49 am

That is something that would defeat me, living in another country. I am very brand sensitive when it comes to certain foods.

7:50 am

You learn to adapt. Many brands are similar - clothes are my problem - I still buy from Marks and Spencer over the internet, when I can and when they have free postage!

7:51 am

Night Liz...sleep well

7:51 am

There are also still some things I miss and get people to bring over when they visit.

7:51 am

Name that proper noun...author Theodore ******

7:51 am

But really going now. Good night from here :)

7:52 am

that's why you have so many visitors :)

8:08 am

Hey crossy :)

8:08 am

{crossy}

8:09 am

I'm starting another temp job on the 6th.

8:09 am

This one is with an agency so there are more possibilities than just the job I originally applied for.

8:10 am

((mimi))

8:10 am

good luck, Mimi

8:10 am

smores,annie et al:))

8:10 am

TY, Annie.

that's sounds great Mimi

8:11 am

speaking of jobs, crossy is going back to school,after 33 years!!! to upgrade his skillz:)) i start on may 13th:)

8:12 am

I hope this one turns out for me. I'm tired of being made to feel useless due to age.

8:12 am

No...customer service for Pearsons Books

8:12 am

wow...good for you crossy :)

8:12 am

Good for you, crossy! I went back to school a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it. Got straight A's, too!

8:13 am

don't let them make you feel that way Mimi

8:13 am

indeed,maybe they will assign me a pretty little 25 year old to mentor me the first week;))))

8:13 am

lol :)

8:13 am

Mrs. crossy might have something to say about that!

8:13 am

come to school with me mimi:))

8:13 am

we can tear the place up

8:14 am

:)

8:14 am

she might have something to say indeed!

8:15 am

I do plan to go back as soon as I can. I went online and really enjoyed it. It was much tougher than my in-class courses were years ago but I felt the education was superior.

8:15 am

I made friends with one of my profs and we still email.

8:16 am

thats what i worry about.working with all those kids

8:16 am

8:17 am

Fabulous, jmc! A Master's is what I'm ultimately aiming for as well. Since my field is Psychology and I want to do therapy, my age works for me rather than against me.

8:17 am

no that was not an issue crossy. . .

8:17 am

Going online is great because there are all ages from all over the country. Very interesting.

8:17 am

8:18 am

8:22 am

mine is hoxes. . . why is that not a word?

8:22 am

I wrote the paper in my major field so I could use it later and also so I could reference myself in the future!

8:22 am

jmc, use the letter to the right of the h

8:22 am

8:26 am

it is at a mennonite school and although business is one track they also encourage peace keeping and prison work and advocacy as tracks. . .

8:26 am

guess which one i ended up in. . .

8:27 am

i never see sprite any more how is she doing?

8:27 am

She is doing very well, jmc. We email daily. I've kind of adopted her....terrific woman.

8:28 am

8:28 am

Sounds like an interesting field, jmc. What will be your focus?

This is what is so great about the Babble community....you can get so much information and get connected to such great people!

8:41 am

Hi carlee :)

8:44 am

I would so much love one of those here in the west. Will try to organize one when my finances improve. BTW, my godson and his wife live in DC right now while he's working on his PhD. He had scholarships for his entire education. So proud of him. When he's done in DC he is going back to Berkeley. His mother is my best friend and we're both planning to relocate to northern California when he goes back. Would love to get out of Phoenix. Hey, then we'll be close to ruru!

Graduation Commitment. This is done in schools across the country and this is the how the commitment reads: "I commit myself to a lifestyle of social and environmental integrity and will seek to improve those aspects of the community in which I work."

9:02 am

some current to add to your paper. . . you will look so on top of things!

9:02 am

i've seenn him solo and with his wife also saw his son

i like heat. cold is another story

9:09 am

You want heat---we're supposed to get up to 100 today...man, I HATE this time of year in Phoenix.

9:09 am

It's like living in a suburb of HELL.

9:10 am

going up to 15c with rain today :(

9:10 am

( about 60F)

9:10 am

woo woo! a day on the river! you'll have fun, owl :)

yes. should have asked doren, though. thought i did mention it

9:11 am

mimi - we get temps of -30 during the winter - so we have our share of severe weather, too. but even when i lived back east, i didn't like the heat

after today, 5 days of rain and cooler and gllomy

9:11 am

I've stayed here because my grown kids are here, but as they get older I'm liking them less and less so am contemplating a move to a more congenial location for myself.

9:12 am

I should live somewhere it's cold all the time because these days I look so much better with more clothes on.

9:12 am

(we do get a few weeks during the summer where the temps could hover in the low 90s)

9:12 am

we get to 100+ here for about 2 weeks

just wondering how i am going to do this. anklehurts enough to make me think of going to the dr.

9:13 am

rough zydeco dancing?

no. began on thursday.

9:13 am

See if binding it helps, TO. But if it's that painful, you should stay off it until you see the doctor so you don't make it worse.

9:14 am

Third column O stats please?

9:14 am

Mi, ML!

9:14 am

I meant Hi.

9:14 am

Hi Mimi

ileftearly last night, band was so so. i did not rate them well when they submitted for the festival. i was right.

9:16 am

Hi all. Happy Sunday.

9:20 am

Good morning all.

9:20 am

Finally have my hands free so I can type.

9:21 am

never mind

9:22 am

is the 9 a plural?

i am sitting here falling asleep

9:22 am

Not really, mlf

9:22 am

it is co9/66

hi bea

9:23 am

Morning, to

9:24 am

bzz i saw that it begins with CO is it something i should know or an extension of another world?

9:25 am

two females that gain an estate

9:25 am

Good morning, loves. I really need to be doing household drudgery instead of idling away here.

9:25 am

*Hands Judi the toilet bowl cleaner*

that is a clue for co 9 bea?

9:26 am

Gee thanks, Molls. Actually, the laundry room is my destination. And the ironing board. *grumble*

9:26 am

Yes, to

hey y'all. slow going here for a board this size.

i have the female who inherits singular...

9:27 am

It is a clue for co9. I would say one of two females who gain an estate

ah....

9:28 am

nbt and nbs thanks for the clue and to morewords i got the 9

9:28 am

nbt and nbs

9:31 am

you mean like Ellen Degeneres and her wife Molly?

9:31 am

Ironing is the ultimate drudgery Judi. I need loud rock and roll to get through mine.

9:32 am

Degenerate and her wife gained an estate?

9:32 am

Luckily, I can watch TV while I iron. One of my most hated chores tho.

9:32 am

And, on that note... off I go. Toodles, y'all! *POOF*

9:33 am

Hubs does the ironing here. While in college during the 60's, he took in ironing from the dorm for spending money.

yes, I have to watch TV while ironing, as well. I have a friend who does laundry and ironing every Mon. I can't be that organized. My ironing goes into a basket and when it's overflowing I do it. Find clothes I forget I had.

9:34 am

People ironed in the '60's?

I have another friend who irons nothing, but there are certain things that just look bad.

9:34 am

He ironed men's shirts, Molly.

9:34 am

I do laundry every day. I don't care for the smell of a week's worth of dirty clothes.

Yes, people ironed in the 60s. My mom still irons things like jeans and bedsheets.

9:35 am

Ah, I have often wondered about people who iron sheets.

9:35 am

My mom took in ironing in the late 60's. Niagra spray starch is one of my favorite smells.

no joke, Molly. my mom will iron sheets here at my house to go back on the guest bed, and I'm like, it isn't necessary!

9:38 am

Friday afternoon, we had a drunk driver's car land iin our front yard.

9:39 am

Been an interesting weekend around here.

9:40 am

Oh damn Bea, did it do much damage?

9:41 am

Just roughed up the grass a bit and took some bark off the tree he side swiped.

When will people learn?

9:42 am

Pretty bizarre.

9:42 am

hi all.

9:42 am

any clues for the 9?

9:42 am

He swerved to miss a car that blew through the stop sign.

I saw some mention it was a co9 but haven't found it and didn't feel like scrolling back. ;-)

9:43 am

mkg, check Molly's clue at 9:27

got it, thx. had the main word but didn't think of it being a co.

9:46 am

i have the 7..................but i dont see the 9/

surprise, surprise - the remaining blank tiles I have are vowels.

9:47 am

oh i just got it. ty.

9:47 am

weird word.

9:47 am

The 9 has nothing to do with the 7.

9:48 am

I guess the 7 does work with the 9...sorry.

it does have a correlating 7, just starts with a different letter.

9:48 am

Well, I'm glad no one was hurt and that the damage was minimal, Bea.

9:49 am

Me too, Molly.

9:49 am

After checking that no one was hurt, both cars drove off.

9:50 am

any clues for the 8s? i have only one: you eat a grilled ch**** sandwhich, ch**** is made from milk, and then more so. what are others please?

what, they destroyed your property and left?

9:50 am

More and more, I feel like the majority of drivers on the road are dimwits.

that's the only one I have, mkg

9:51 am

good morning babblers

9:51 am

If you saw our yard, you wouldn't say they "destroyed" it.

Ok. Where are you in NC? I'm near Concord.

morning, Christa.

9:52 am

We are just 20 miles from the VA border, north of Raleigh.

9:53 am

I'm sure neither driver had insurance and they both probably had warrents out on them.

Ah.

9:54 am

My sister used to live in Raleigh. Nice area.

I've only driven through. Never actually stopped there.

9:54 am

Raleigh is a very nice area. Our county is not so nice.

My guess is, being close to VA, it is more rural than Raleigh.

I grew up in VA, but nowhere near there. down on the TN border.

9:56 am

It is. And it is not as diverse as Raleigh. Most of the people here have no legal jobs.

9:57 am

i still have three letters with no words. back later.

9:57 am

Time for me to bzz...

I still can't find one of the Es in the first col

2:44 pm

2:47 pm

"They bring the flowers that bloom in May. So if it's raining, have no regrets,"

2:50 pm

Because it isn't raining rain you know, it's raining violets

2:52 pm

gotta love Al....."And where you see clouds upon the hills, You soon will see crowds of daffodils"

2:53 pm

(And here comes my favorite part) So keep on looking for a bluebird, and listening for his song...whenever April showers come along.

2:54 pm

When I first looked at this game, I thought "Oh this can't be hard. There are only 25 letters. How can you not find all the words pretty quickly." Hahahahahaha!

2:54 pm

3:03 pm

Oh sorry, she's meeting a very nice, respectable man for tea on a regular basis.

3:03 pm

we had a lovely day, if you MUST know! Church, then home, where secondo made us WONDERFUL pancakes. Did a few chores, then played tennis - secondo, valentine, and I.....and now hes taking a nap whilst I am babbling

3:03 pm

and watching the red sox, of course

3:03 pm

Rofl!!! Molly L! Lowering the tone again! But, if she's accurate - good for you Trif!

3:03 pm

best part was playing tennis - more than mr. hate ever did with his kids!

3:04 pm

I am madly in love, soodle, that much is true

3:04 pm

Ooooh, delicious, Trif. Good for you!

3:05 pm

he's LOVELY.

3:05 pm

He's her funny Valentine. He makes her smile, with her heart ♥

3:05 pm

and his father was from ireland, so you would approve!

3:05 pm

Does he have 2 brothers? (One for me, one for Molls)!

3:06 pm

he had one, but sadly he passed a few years ago

3:06 pm

Arrah! If he has Irish blood, there will be good in him!

3:06 pm

there is SO MUCH good in him

3:07 pm

shoot....laptop is about to die....well, im here as long as it lasts :)

3:07 pm

Feckit! Back to the drawing board Molls....

3:07 pm

how are things with you, soodle?

3:07 pm

LOL...stepped away for a minute...happy for you Trif :)

3:07 pm

Glad to hear your happy news Trif, enjoy

3:08 pm

Good enough Trif. I'm very very happy for you!

3:08 pm

and dont forget me.....I need a Valentine too....

3:08 pm

thanks all. I LOVE you guys!

3:08 pm

Hello my wonderful ladies

3:08 pm

hi River

3:08 pm

seriously, after my five years of HELL, this makes for a welcome change. The best part is how good he is with the kids. GREAT man, fantastic dad

3:08 pm

Hi River, Flo, Smores, et al

3:08 pm

So many quality women, so few quality men.

3:09 pm

not that he is my childrens' dad, but you know what I mean....it's good for them to have a strong man in their life. He listens when they talk. They LOVE him

3:09 pm

good for you Trif...you deserve some happiness

3:09 pm

<------what Molls said. :-(

3:09 pm

triple that....

3:09 pm

and thats a big bonus Trif

3:10 pm

Does he have kids?

3:12 pm

yep...what Molly said

3:12 pm

uh oh I think we lost Trif

3:12 pm

I had a call from my ex today, to inform me that his latest girlfriend in Thailand has had a baby. That makes 3 by-blows in as many years, all with different moms. I am spitting feathers.

3:12 pm

wonderful Trif :)

3:13 pm

ugh..wow Soodles

3:13 pm

OMG Soodle....does he not know how to keep it in...

3:13 pm

Why does he call you to tell you such things?

3:13 pm

send him a box of condems

3:14 pm

ah soodle, why does he just have to let you know all this, just mean, and you are the better without him, IMHO

3:14 pm

The gobshite is heading for 60! But still, those calls really REALLY upset me!

3:14 pm

Soodle, he has no reason to be calling you anymore. Block his number.

3:14 pm

well...gotta go...gonna watch a movie with my daughter

3:15 pm

bfn smores, enjoy

3:15 pm

tell him that or just dont answer....those woman have no sense either to be having a baby with a 60 year old man

3:15 pm

soodle, I am SPEECHLESS> Ugh!

3:15 pm

sounds like he needs more than his number "blocked"

3:15 pm

Enjoy, Smores. :-)

3:15 pm

enjoy smores

3:15 pm

Quadruple ugh, Trif.

3:15 pm

thanks..bye :)

3:16 pm

Trif, does Valentine have kids?

3:16 pm

yes, 2 grown sons, molly

3:16 pm

I have to say I dont know how I will react when I see my ex with a new woman....its all too new!

3:16 pm

its awkward as ass, river, but you survive

3:17 pm

we have a great group of common friends so I know it will happen at some point

3:17 pm

and he is still living in my house....cant wait for him to move out so I can move on!

3:17 pm

though I suppose in my case, its a bit different....I do wonder sometimes how different I would feel if I saw mr hate with a new woman. Seeing him with a new man was odd enough though.

3:17 pm

River, at first it's weird, and then you start laughing.

3:17 pm

Its shitty, River, but you'll build a bridge & get over it. :-)

3:17 pm

oh thats right...forgot about that....that might actually be easier

3:18 pm

I know that at some point I will have to meet Valentines ex....DREADING it

3:18 pm

Because you know he's putting his best foot forward, and you know what comes next...for her...

3:18 pm

ha molly!

3:48 pm

3:48 pm

Ah, thanks Molly, I was trying alternate endings

3:56 pm

It's sad that this godforsaken game claims that te4 is not in the dictionary, but accepts four other words that build off of it. And it IS in the dictionary.

3:59 pm

Hmm, found three words that build off it...

5:51 pm

Don't we all know that...I sure do at work...sometimes my smile is quite fake...

5:51 pm

;) some patients cause me to not be able to wait til I can sedate them....

5:52 pm

some people can be quite trying, indeed

5:53 pm

I know at least one person I would like to smother with a pillow but prison life does not appeal to me.

5:54 pm

It's usually one of two kinds that irritate me, the swaggering male whom has to make innuendos, or the chatterboxes...

5:55 pm

I used to work in a hopsital and there was a male patient who was always exposing himself to people, especiallly women.

5:55 pm

Ick to both, especially swaggering males.

5:56 pm

LOL...peri, had an old 90+ year old male in a nursing home I worked at...did the same thing...plus, how should I put it, was quite amply endowed...

5:56 pm

uh oh

5:57 pm

Oh, and I also have low tolerance for wimpy people..like...cowboy up, if you want sedation I have to put in an IV...

5:57 pm

Wow, 90 and still infatuated with his organ. I don't know whether to laugh or to cry.

5:57 pm

We all laughed actually...

5:59 pm

okay, using word lists for my last 13, too many odd words for me and my brain is toast after this morning's test

6:32 pm

Pip, why did you have a test on Sunday?

6:32 pm

i take classes on the weekends so they don't interfere with work

6:33 pm

saturdays i have anatomy class from 9am till 3:45, and sundays i have chemistry from 8am till 3:45. kind of awful

6:33 pm

and i got a poor grade on this test from making a couple dumb mistakes, and i was counting on this one to be the one to bring my grade up

6:33 pm

I didn't know there was "weekend college".

6:34 pm

oh well, can't always have what you hope for

6:35 pm

oh, and that's fw

6:36 pm

pretty common, molly, the classes i take are at a CUNY school but it's community college so a huge portion of their students work full time

6:36 pm

lots of evening and weekend classes

6:36 pm

Never heard of six and seven hour classes either. That is more than kind of awful.

6:36 pm

it's because it's a whole week's worth of class in one day

6:45 pm

9:08 pm

Don't know her, ruru.....thanks anyway.

9:09 pm

Thanks much, ruru.

most of the time, they are really good with each other but today, they are grating on each other and me. goobers

9:09 pm

now you do.. Atalante is one of the fun snarky babblers.. very keen wit

how are things for you? expect another package by the end of the week ;)

9:09 pm

ooooh! something to look forward to!

9:10 pm

lol...how old are your kids CnT

they are 7 and 9, smores - almost 8 and 10

9:10 pm

I should start on a garden post in a few minutes, tea -- I have a few garden updates which will be nice. Otherwise, there are frustrations, worries, confusions, and a whole lot of wishes about "what might have been"

9:10 pm

ah...I remember that age with mine...:)

I'm sorry. We are going to be up there in July - we must get together.

9:11 pm

And the rest... actually not bad. I am surrounded by lovely, kind people (including many babblers) and I know that ultimately there will be a normal again.

9:11 pm

Thanks, ru, I seem to remember her now.

9:11 pm

tadone!! finito!!

I am not looking forward to teenage years. the girl is a drama queen and the boy is a drama king

9:12 pm

*psst tea -- military school...*

9:13 pm

lol

9:13 pm

that was my plan, anyway, but we didn't have enough money. *sigh*

snork

9:13 pm

**sees a lot of eye rolling for TnC

9:13 pm

on the other hand, actual DRAMA involvement has done wonders for the younger !

9:13 pm

lol stid, there were times when I wished that was compulsory

9:13 pm

and the kids are going to roll their eyes, too!

lots of eye rolling already, lbd. they are both in the highly gifted program at school, so they are really smart AND they know it, so it makes for interesting times.

9:14 pm

yep...

9:14 pm

I call mine on it before she does it...she hates that

9:14 pm

don't all teenagers already know "everything"?

9:15 pm

last 2 and stumped, oc7 and 6, help please?

9:15 pm

Need to involve them with kids who aren't in that sort of program, tea -- kids who have a lot going on (just not in academic areas). It's a good experience to learn that book-smarts aren't everything. I think that is partly what the drama involvement did for Grant

9:15 pm

Hey y'all. does anyone have the RA6/21?

I tell Tea that I can hear her eyes roll - it frustrates her to no end, but I know when she is doing it, because I did it to - dur!

9:15 pm

hi folks

9:15 pm

oc 7 is past tense of the color flosey

9:15 pm

hey welki!

9:16 pm

thanks ru

9:16 pm

thanks ruru

9:16 pm

Hey welki :)

9:16 pm

more risque, minski

9:16 pm

ru, isn't that oc6?

9:16 pm

then they'll get there, tea -- they are good kids and they will adapt to know what is acceptable behavior.

9:17 pm

Thanks welki

9:17 pm

It has actually made her quit doing it as much as she hates for me to be right...lol

9:17 pm

have it, missing the oc7/40 and the 6/24 that follows it

9:17 pm

thanks for the ra 6

9:17 pm

and hi

9:17 pm

try the other oc color spelling, flo

9:17 pm

9:17 pm

9:17 pm
