how can i tell a bite from a hive?

12:18 am

a bite will have a "center" and a hive won't

12:18 am

oh we learned that today!

12:18 am

aha, a bite has a smallish mound in the middles of a reddened area, a hive looks either like nettle rash, or can be a large welt-like area, very red and hor

12:19 am

hi jill.. i know you don't... have i accidentally spammed you? if so i apologise... part of the problem i am having with intermittent connections at home... i click on something and 5 minutes later it does whatever is in the spot i clicked on previouly.. terribly sorry.

12:19 am

a hive will also turn white completely when you press the skin around it and the bite will have a little red dot (the center bite) when you do the same

ty. i don't remember all mosquito bites having centers unless i scratched them, i will have to look more closely.

12:19 am

nbt, nbs

12:19 am

I've been a water baby since age 3. Won my first diving prize (a little silver spoon I still have, engraved with the date--1931) at age 4.

12:19 am

wtg cray

12:19 am

poor TO.. the agony of the allergy.. commisertions :0

12:20 am

TO, do you have any personal insect repellant around? use that on the area, if the itch goes, it's a bite.

just back from festival and had a hive on the way up and def have one bite and one unknown now

and have 8 worfs to go

12:21 am

there is something in the repellants which neutralises the "sting"

12:21 am

Kate -- don't worry -- I think FB does this randomly to please their advertisers -- I get lots of game requests I'm pretty sure the friends didn't send me.

12:21 am

Lt. Worf?

12:21 am

wish i had my baby heirlooms :(

sneak attacks, granny. and we now have tiger mosquitoes

12:22 am

TO, you can use it after the bite to get relief.

granny, the unknown is at the corner of the eye so i am loath to use anything. I have cortisone vream and "of"

cream and "Off"

I nixed the itch of mosquito bites recently by applying AfterBite followed by a deodorant while tha AfterBite was still damp. A friend on the beach today recommended Witch Hazel.

12:24 am

any chance you have occular antihistamine drops at hand TO? otehrwise, you'll just have towait for the allergy meds to kick in...

12:24 am

hmmm, so must have something which is okay near eyes...paste of sodium bicarb.

witch hazel is a wonder. the location is awful and i think i will have to suffer. Until the claritin takes effect. ty or the help

12:24 am

Hi all :)

12:24 am

i find afterbite works very well..

12:24 am

Now I must go and do kitchen stuff and take a tylenol for the backache!

i sprayed with cortisone nasal spray earlier

12:25 am

I must go to bed. Day 5 of training comestoo early tomorrow GN all

12:25 am

AfterBite by itself didn't work for me

12:25 am

happy dreams, cos!

night cos

12:26 am

Sleep well cos :)

12:26 am

do you have anything faster-acting than claratin TO? like a benadryl... or even a cold med thaqt has an antihistamine in it? claratin, reactine etc., don't act very quickly... they build up in the blood over time.

12:26 am

night cos, sweet dreams

12:26 am

FWs

no benadryl. i cannot be sure it will wear off by the am ty

12:26 am

12:57 am

i have 20 left. :(

12:57 am

lol rose

12:58 am

don't laugh, hun. i often go in to mother mac, she is out cold, sitting in her chair, with her face inches from the floor.

12:59 am

I can relate

12:59 am

and when i wake her, saying, why don't you go to bed, mum, she says, i was just resting my eyes...yeah right

12:59 am

is mother mac still on respite rose?

12:59 am

heh

1:00 am

no, kate. she came home last monday.

1:01 am

oh, too bad! you didn't get much of a break, with the birth of braxton....

1:04 am

it never rains but it pours, right?

1:04 am

don and i did get out of town twice, and did and saw some wonderful things.

1:05 am

So when are you going to visit, Rose?

1:06 am

fw

1:06 am

Congrats joso :)

1:06 am

wtg joso

1:06 am

presuming you mean my latest grandkiddie, i am holding off to allow them space to adjust to a new babe in the house. all is well, have spoken to son, braxton continues to put on weight

1:06 am

WTG JOSO!!!!

1:07 am

ty ty ty all

1:07 am

Yes, that's what I meant - I knew you were holding off but wondered if you had a time in mind - like the weekend perhaps. Good news that Brax continues to put on weight.

1:09 am

yeah 200gms in 4 days...told son to back off with the steak and chips. lol. son says things are still a little hairy. they have to feed braxton every 3 hours. they must be worn out.

1:09 am

I bet they

1:09 am

they''re tired!

1:10 am

thank heavens the eldest boy is 17...he is being a real trooper, and stepping up to the mark, and helping out where he can.

1:10 am

sounds like a pain, but so good that he has a healthy appitite, especilly after his troubles.

1:11 am

That's really good. and younger sibs? Is Deacon a sib or cousin? Are they accepting of new baby?

1:12 am

i had the same scenario with my first. had to do it on my own, as first hubby had epilepsy which caused him to fit just as he was wakening. like i was going to let him get up and handle a new-born.

1:12 am

That must've been hard for you but you got through it OK and the difficult times will get easier.

1:12 am

Zac and Blake are from a previous relationship of lucinda's. deacon, claudia and braxton are all full siblings.

1:13 am

glad to hear he is gaining weight.. is he home yet? congrstulations joso!!!!!!

1:13 am

So are deacon and claudia OK or are they jealous?

1:13 am

i know, liz, and i can't really help out, i don't have the equipment, if you catch my drift.

1:13 am

LOL!

1:14 am

<smirk>

1:14 am

deacon is ear to ear cheesy grins, claudia is only 3, still absorbing it all, is my guess

1:14 am

That's cute - proud big brother!

1:14 am

I'm sure they'll be fine.

1:15 am

<does a fireworks po4/5 (last word)>

1:15 am

Can I have a clue for the ph 6 / 7 pls. I have the gh one and what's the 3rd?

1:16 am

congrats cray

1:16 am

Congrats crayola :)

1:16 am

i was wondering if lucinda could express a couple of feeds, then i could go over and give her a break...

1:16 am

Taking the the other 2 out for the afternoon might also give her a break.

1:17 am

ph6, short for one who takes ph5s

1:17 am

liz, abbreviation for a holiday snap, ph + h**, not cold + **ee, exclamation of disappointment

1:17 am

OK thanks! Never would've guessed that one! I had the ph5!

1:17 am

liz, ph6/7 is slang for person who takes pictures

1:17 am

ph7 plural

1:18 am

lag...

1:18 am

Strange little grid!

1:18 am

tried that liz, but i think lucinda just wants her family around her all the time. trying to not be the nagging mother-in-law

1:19 am

I only noticed one word that reached out to the right 2 collums

1:19 am

yeah, joso, that wretched se6....drove me crazy, looking for it

1:19 am

OK - so I guess it's just a matter of being patient. Finger tapping!!!!! Nail chewing and other activities to pass time!

1:20 am

I don't have that word yet joso - all my words are firmly in the 3 left hand columns!

1:20 am

don't forget chogging...*giggle*

1:20 am

Thats a given!

1:20 am

I don't hink I've ever seen two full columns next to each other greyed out from the beginning.

1:21 am

Gosh i need to put my brain to bed. Night all, and good luck.

1:21 am

Hah! just found the se 6 - thanks.

1:21 am

Night crayola. Sleep well )

1:21 am

night, cray. hope you have sweet dreams

1:21 am

1:22 am

yay liz

1:22 am

Oh yes, have the mi 4 too!

1:22 am

1:22 am

I also got the se 6 by using the e twice!!!!

1:23 am

no, you dill, se then diagonally down right

1:24 am

I know now - I checked when the word was accepted!!!!

1:24 am

I love that expression! So Aussie!

1:24 am

yes, I see it now gran, of course we couldn't use the e twice, just thought we did

1:26 am

glad i didn't offend, liz. my father either called us muggles or dillberries. lol

1:26 am

Your father was way ahead of JK Rowling then!!!

1:27 am

Def no offence! I love Aussie slang!

1:27 am

Well I should try to sleep, even if i don't feel sleepy, g'nite all

1:27 am

yeah, when that court case was going on, i laughed myself silly. it was a loving name in our family since the 1960's

1:27 am

Hello,rose, I'm fine.

2:11 am

all good, then. did you see braxton arrived on the 23rd july, yes i know prince george was born then also.

2:12 am

I know you've been in the wars. I'm still waiting for arthrodesis to be in the grid, remember when you were coping with that?

2:13 am

Yes, I knew you were a granny again. He's a big boy!

2:13 am

*groan* don't remind me...but the body beautiful ain't what it used to be...still...compared to some, i am in roses...

2:13 am

sure is, and home, and putting weight on, at the rate of 100gm every 2 days.

2:14 am

I'm glad I don't get weighed on a daily basis.

2:15 am

ditto, lol. probably would wear out the scales..

2:15 am

I can just see the scales mentally bracing themselves at my approach.

2:16 am

funny, mine cringe and cower under the bath, whimpering

2:18 am

We should show them pictures to prove we could be worse.

2:20 am

rofl...

2:22 am

tjh

2:24 am

glad to make you smile, pink

2:25 am

ty conversely feel bad for the trials and tribulations people have too

2:26 am

How long have you been playing, pink?

2:28 am

actually since 2007 I was a member but when I switched to scrabble forgot all my info here and dr god coulnd not find me, need to just rejoin

2:28 am

i was like tazpink or similar

2:28 am

pink, you will find that is a loving supportive network. i have benefited...as have many others. we also have found new friends, and even get to meet them personally sometimes.

2:29 am

Ah, so you've been around for a while.

2:29 am

yes it is a kind bunch and i recall many familiar names from years ago

2:31 am

morning everyone, ((((Haz))))

2:31 am

lol babble has actually helped my scrabble game and boggle

2:31 am

Hello, Katie. Sorry, was answering the phone.

2:32 am

How are things?

2:32 am

Things are fine. I'm enjoying a good summer and all is well.

2:33 am

That is very good to hear. It has been a lovely summer hasn't it

2:33 am

It's been great. I like when seasons behave like they're supposed to.

2:34 am

Plus I have a boxed set of the Olympics so I can dip back into the memories of last year.

2:34 am

it seems like years since we had a good one, I think it was worth the wait.

2:35 am

I loved the Olympics but am currently very into the Ashes so it has filled the void that would otherwise be there!

2:35 am

I know, so many summers of drippiness and clouds.

2:36 am

I had no great expectations of the Olympics but loved them. I think I watched Twenty Twelve and thought it was all going to be disaster but it was wonderful

2:37 am

The relief of that opening ceremony when you realised that we actually might not embarrass ourselves as a nation was great.

2:37 am

hey katie

2:38 am

Hi granny :)

2:38 am

I know! I think we're too fond of imagining the worst but it was great.

2:38 am

have either of you seen sarah or crafty lady, lately. am missing them so much.

2:39 am

No, granny, I haven't seen either of them.

2:39 am

to be honest I'm not on much anymore so haven't see either

2:40 am

Are you not in touch via e-mail either, rose?

2:40 am

Morning Dear Friends

2:40 am

okay, will persist in my emails...i'll try one of sarah's girls. the older generations may be too busy.

2:40 am

morning puglet

2:40 am

hey up pugs...{{hugs}}

2:41 am

Good morning, puglet.

2:41 am

Hey all and hugs back Rose

2:42 am

I'd better go and get on with some work. Have a good day all :)

2:42 am

good morning all

2:43 am

bye Katie!

2:43 am

Bye, Katie. Good morning, sprite.

2:44 am

Hugs Sprite and morning

2:44 am

Haz! How nice to see you again. I hope you are well? How is your dog?

2:44 am

I'm well and the dog is splendid.

2:44 am

hi pug and rose :)

2:45 am

am happy to hear it. Missed seeing you here.

2:45 am

He's a bit of a lap-warmer which I was never used to before.

2:45 am

No, I've been babbling but keeping my head down in chat.

2:46 am

Thank you Haz and Rose for the se 6/21 clue :) Fireworks :)

2:46 am

aw how sweet. A real cuddler!

2:46 am

wtg boat, and hi :)

2:46 am

Well done, boatierra!

2:47 am

Hi sprite :)

2:49 am

hello, dear friend, did answer your email. did it help?

2:50 am

WTG BOAT!!!

2:50 am

rose! *hugs* Yes, so much. Am composing an answer as we speak :D

2:53 am

ahhh, good. xoxox dearest

2:53 am

Rose you feeling better and Sprite was yesterday better for you

2:55 am

yes pugs, although the body has definitely started to collapse, the spirit is fi5ing back.

2:57 am

Iam glad your spirit is coming back. Have you gotten to ge visit the baby

2:59 am

pugs, son and his wife need time to adjust to having a newborn babe at home. i have been messaging them, but no direct verbal contact. the poor darlings are up every 3 hours to feed braxton. he is now gaining weight. i try to give them the space they need.

3:00 am

am glad your spirit is getting back up to speed, rose, and that braxton is home. Yes, a newborn is a challenge.

3:01 am

Understand very well what you mean.Sounds like hes making progress at last

3:01 am

pug, how are you today? I am good, just a bit worried about some health issues that came up in the blood tests. Challenges never stop, do they?

3:03 am

Oh no Sprite--hope it isnt anything too bad. Iam good--wishing for some rain though.

3:03 am

no, nothing life-threatening, nothing like that. Don't worry :)

3:04 am

glad you are good. You can have some of the rain that is falling here. Although I am happy the heat seems to be over for now.

3:06 am

thanks for the offer!lal--glad its nothing real threating. My sunflowers just started blooming and they look so pretty

3:07 am

oh I love sunflowers. And when they are done, you can lie down the heart of the flower on a table or feedhouse, and birds will flock to your garden!

3:08 am

these flowers have tall stalks with several flowers on each stalk

3:09 am

oh pretty! Never seen sunflowers with more than one flower per stalk.

3:09 am

A farmer near me grows a field of sunflowers for his birds he raises and its so pretty when they are all bloomed out

3:10 am

wow a whole field!

3:10 am

the flowers are not as big as those that has just one head

3:11 am

and its funny to see them all facing the sun

3:12 am

oh yes and following it around all day

3:12 am

I kind of picture us all facing our maker like that when the time comes.Just fields of people looking towards the son

3:13 am

oh dear... I hope for something a bit more divers though :)

3:14 am

Oh Iam sure it will be

3:15 am

strange grid this is, with only 3 active columns

3:18 am

Have a little look at a blog I've discovered. It's just a drawing a day, but done by a mother with young children. I love the style and she's obviously blessed with a sense of humour. www.doodlemum.com

3:19 am

will do Haz and thank you for sharing

3:20 am

You're welcome, hope you enjoy it. They say a picture paints a thousand words and somehow she manages to capture the essence of a situation with a few strokes of the pen. A lovely talent to have.

3:21 am

very nice, thanks Haz. So recognisable in many ways.

3:21 am

And now I must be off to supervise doggy adventures upstairs. The lap-warmer has sprung into life.

3:21 am

Toodle-oo!

3:21 am

enjoy your day and your doggy, Haz. I am glad to have seen you!

3:22 am

bye Haz

3:22 am

have a good day, haz. and lovely to see you again

3:22 am

Rose do you work jig puzzles online or the old fashion way

3:23 am

both, pugs, but mainly online.

3:24 am

I love jigsaws the oldfashioned way. Problem is where to keep them while working on them.

3:24 am

when we were at home-we had a puzzle out on the game table most of the time

3:24 am

oh how lovely. The bigger the better for me.

3:25 am

havent done that in along time due to space.I cant believe how much those things cost now a days

3:26 am

lol, i have a jigsaw puzzle board. it is a board of plywood, with an edge on three sides. the fourth side is open to allow me to slide a plywood sheet in, to enclose the jigsaw, and keep iot in place.

3:26 am

and the small town we lived in we were always trading with folks in the town

3:26 am

oh that is brilliant, rose.

3:26 am

oh I bet thats nice

3:27 am

did your hubby build it for you Rose

3:27 am

much better than going to finish said jigsaw, and find out the latest toddler has eaten pieces.

3:28 am

yes, pugs. and it works terrificly

3:28 am

oh yes! Or dog.

3:28 am

I always loved the round ones. I havent tried any of the stand-up kinds

3:28 am

we had one of those globe ones, but it was not fun. All pieces were numbered!

3:28 am

hmmm, neither have i pugs...

3:29 am

oh wouldn't it be lovely to meet someday, and do a HUGE jigsaw together?

3:29 am

oh yeah!

3:30 am

mind you, i have one with a picture on both sides...you think you have finished, but turnit over, and alas...not the true picture.

3:30 am

be like a quilting in the old days-lol

3:30 am

never seen one like that Rose

3:30 am

yeah!!! sounds like a great idea

3:31 am

would be awesome. A true holiday.

3:31 am

and all the inner pieces were the same shape...

3:31 am

I bet that would be really hard

3:31 am

omg rose, that is not really fun. For me, part of the fun is picturing the piece I need and searching for it on the table. By shape.

3:32 am

lol, was a challenge...but not as bad as the one i gave my brother. it was a picture of a plate of spaghetti. he said it took him 3 months to finish.

3:33 am

oh evil! I have seen one with dalmatians. A big one. I think that would be fun to make.

3:33 am

giggle! I bet. Kind of like the one I got my sister.A puzzle of puzzle peices

3:33 am

oh btw rose, did you get around to watching that youtube vid I linked yesterday?

3:34 am

the things we do in order to be amused

3:34 am

a puzzle of puzzle pieces? Omg that IS evil :D :D

3:34 am

no sprite, would it be too much of a problem to let me have it?

3:35 am

not at all

3:35 am

thanx dear heart

3:35 am

I would love to have the skill to quilt.But Ive always been the tomboy type and I preferred the outdoors to inside

3:35 am

this is the one: http://tinyurl.com/p42pjch

3:38 am

fireflies

3:40 am

my eyes keep going to the two columns thats has no words-lol

3:41 am

I did the same thing. So weird to have two dead columns.

3:41 am

good for you Sprite and I bet Rose has fireworks too

3:43 am

rose is watching the vid, i think. It is SO funny.

3:43 am

showed it to my love and he had tears from laughing, lol.

3:46 am

Ive never done youtube and Iam not too sure what it is

3:46 am

Iam not up on all this tech.-lal

3:46 am

rofl. sprite, all too true

3:47 am

pugs, just type in the tinyurl address from sprite. it's hysterical

3:48 am

ok

3:49 am

darn, my beautiful blue-tooth purple mouse just died. it only needs new batteries. back to the drab black one, i'm afraid.

3:51 am

it is hilarious, isn't it rose :)

3:51 am

aw, sorry about your mouse. Feed it!

3:52 am

yeah, to the non-existent cat, perhaps??

3:52 am

my favorite part is where he is at his doctor's and tells about his problem, and then goes :"What problem... and how are you??"

3:53 am

*giggles* That is the joke here... when someone asks us if we are willing to feed the cats, we say ofcourse... just tell us to whom.

3:53 am

*giggle* oh yeah

3:57 am

I went to the site-it says I need to download the tool bar (is this the right one)

10:51 am

10:52 am

thanks, hursh!

10:52 am

10:52 am

the other is also gi4 - with a y on the end it is a rude word for someone with a hadicap

10:53 am

the boots is go, not gi

10:53 am

10:58 am

mh 4/7?

10:58 am

is there another mh?

10:58 am

no just that one

10:59 am

it is apparently a whole alternate word for measurement of resistance usually oh4.

10:59 am

which is an anagram of it.

10:59 am

yes, physics term... means the opposite of its oh counterpart. always thought they were the most clever names for a property that the reverse property is spelled in reverse

10:59 am

george takei had this funny picture on his fb page the other day of an ohm meter thing that's display read "FUTILE" - loved it.

11:00 am

oh3 is resistance, mh3 is conductance (reciprocal properties)... who says physicists have no humor ; )

11:00 am

ha! hursh - cute

11:02 am

oh thanks for clarifying that it is conductance, somehow i had gotten the mistaken impression that they were BOTH resistance.

11:02 am

are there any sh 5's?

11:02 am

2 sh5

11:02 am

no, reciprocals, not the same

11:02 am

12:57 pm

Oh, and the Yiddish word is dirty, and that word just means a dull or stupid person. : D

wow, twisty little mind you have there molly, you should write murder mysteries

6:00 pm

Not my mind. I didn't name the terms.

6:03 pm

I wonder who first thought of spelling ohm backwards for conductance, some spoilsport is promoting the substitution of siemems for it now.

7:04 pm

hi all!

7:11 pm

Hi Cos, it's a ghost town in here.

7:12 pm

figures

7:14 pm

Small grid. All the hi x 10 and clue requests x 10 and the tyvm's x 10 are over. How was your day at work?

7:15 pm

ah forgot its small! good. tomorrow is last day of training and I have overtime on Sunday! (i dont get paid or overtime but i can use the hours so i can get paid over christmas break. I work 5 hours sunday and that gives me 7.5 hours of comp time for the holidays)

7:15 pm

ansd with my position I will be getting a lot of comp time so that will help during breaks

7:19 pm

That's great. It's nice that they do that with overtime hours. A lot of companies don't.

7:20 pm

I like it. I prefer that because I am only a 9 month staff. Comp time will help with summer break too even it's not much. Better than nothing.

7:22 pm

People who work for school systems seem to prefer things that way. Unless they are 12 month employees that get paid all year long. That is the good life.

7:24 pm

Teachers get to choose 9 or 12. If they choose 9 their checks will be bigger because if they go with 12 their checks will be deducted for summer pay. Maintenance staff and admin staff are all 12 months. Lucky lol

7:32 pm

Yep. But teachers with nice, padded 10-12 salaries get to spread things out over 12 months, 2 of which they don't work. Not a bad gig.

Stid - is relurk a word? lol Yes, of course it is.x

10:42 pm

I don't know if Minver has done a story clue for this grid but you could make a rhyming story clue for it. It rhymes and chimes so well along the way.

11:10 pm

molly if you're still here--most teadhers work long hours for low pay and most when they have " time off" are rerequired to take classes, etc. I worked almost around the calendar. Now my daughter is.
