12:38 am

when you've had a wall vac for over 40 years, you don't pay much attention to vacuum cleaner ads

12:38 am

yay nan!

12:38 am

a wall vac?

12:39 am

nan, one of our supermarkets does give-away draws and that vac is offered sometimes.

12:40 am

nbs, nbt.

12:40 am

and thank goodness

wtg

12:41 am

yes -- jbp -- vacuum system built into the house

12:41 am

so I have spent most of the last 3 days in the hospital visiting my dad. He has had another fall and fractured the C2 in his neck (AGAIN).

12:41 am

any good thoughts you can send his way would be much appreciated.

12:42 am

Ikeep telling him and his girlfriend to stop it with the bedroom gymnastics, but ... yeah. ;-)

so very sorry to hear, jb

12:42 am

wall vac -- attachments in the walls to which you connect a vac hose, and the collector bin is in the basement or something. I have one but don't use it.

12:42 am

ah, I was not familiar with that , nan

12:42 am

{{HUGGLES}} to jbp's Dad xoxo

12:42 am

he's 82, and still really mentally sharp.

12:43 am

Speedy recovery to your dad jbp - hugs.

12:43 am

and it's just frustrating as hell to see him decliining

12:43 am

poor dad, jbp!

12:43 am

thanks for the well wishes.

12:43 am

best wishes to your dad, jbp

12:43 am

it's the one good thing about being unemployed is that I have the time to be with him.

12:51 am

12:52 am

Nan, I know what you mean.

12:52 am

1:00 am

well done Dee, sweet sleep

1:02 am

wd diz and dee -- and 63 left here but bedtime -- goodnight all...*poof

gapeach - try ecd and see if you don't come up with something

1:11 am

Thanks much, helen.....looking now.

1:11 am

Hi again :)

1:12 am

Peach, try ec + a make of vacuum cleaner

1:13 am

If you highlight what Dee wrote about the insect and put it into your search engine, it also comes up with the word.

1:14 am

I don't know how to do that, Liz.....but will try....thannks

I had not realized that we could come up with so many words based on the same precise root derivative, without once using the word for a practitioner of the ecd* arts!

1:15 am

Highlight what Dee wrote, then copy and paste it into your search engine.

1:15 am

Or the white bar at the top of the page where the www. addresses appear.

1:16 am

ec + rhymes with a word for the small cubes used for gaming (pl)

I think maybe she's off Goggling!

1:18 am

So difficult to know how to clue it.

1:18 am

Peach - jbp gave a HUGE clue at 12.36!

And yet once you're onto it - there's a treasure trove of words.

1:19 am

Such weird words though!

1:19 am

But totally logical.

That's true enough. I'm about to conk out, I'd bettter go to bed. Wishing all luck, esp. you and gapeach.

1:20 am

Sleep well :)

1:21 am

Thank you, helen. Sweet dreams.

1:22 am

Peach did you see jbp's clue at 12.36?

1:24 am

Yes, I did, Liz. I went online and found a word for the sheddiing of skin ....only 6 letters though.

1:24 am

If you add the word that jbp wrote to the ec, you'll have one of the ec 7s

1:25 am

cooee and g'day from me

1:25 am

hi rose

1:25 am

Oh, thanks so much, Liz.

1:25 am

The first 5 letters are identical on the ec 7 7 8 9 8, Peach.

1:25 am

how are you flosey?

1:25 am

Hi Rose

1:25 am

hey ya liz

1:26 am

good thanks rose, and you?

1:26 am

What did the doc say today?

1:26 am

a little better, thanx. doc says i have a viral brochitis and laryngitis.on antibiotics in case.

1:27 am

*bronchitis* duh

1:27 am

Don't do things by halves, do you?

1:27 am

ah nasty, sorry to hear that rose

1:27 am

just what are you saying, liz? lolol

1:27 am

I'd like to see you healthy and not in pain!

1:27 am

;)

1:28 am

n ot allowed to talk. don is over the moon. except if he wants to hear what i have to say, he has to get p and come over to me and i can whisper in his shell-pink. *giggle*

1:28 am

Maybe some rest is in order granny

1:29 am

Sweet!

1:29 am

who for, ruru? me or don?

1:29 am

Both of you

1:30 am

darn....well that's torn it for tonight, then. i had such plans....

1:30 am

A little bit of whispering can lead a long way ...

1:31 am

You both have been sick a lot..maybe you are pushing yourselves too hard

1:31 am

And Don will be so happy to hear you again, when you have your voice back!

1:31 am

Good point, Ru.

1:31 am

you are probably quite correct, ruru. we have been pushing hard for a long time. butts on the ground, i guess.

1:32 am

Helen, if you are still here.....I HAVE THEM ALL.

1:32 am

WTG Peach :)

1:33 am

And Liz, thanks so much. Those words are new to me.

1:33 am

one thing for sure. once i have fully recovered from this lot of surgery, i will be very seriously considering retiring. i have had enough.

1:33 am

I suspect new to most people.

1:33 am

I can certainly recommend retirement - one of the best things I ever did!

1:35 am

If only babble paid a salary ....

1:36 am

I like that thought!

1:37 am

oh, the latest in the saga of fanf and the MIL's will.

1:38 am

Ooooh! Spill the dirt!

1:38 am

What is that ?

1:38 am

apparently fang has gone out and bought herself a new spa, on finance, because she would have the money to pay it off before any interest due.

1:39 am

Duh!!!!!

1:39 am

of, course, she has dragged her silly heels, and the money still hasn't come through

1:39 am

And have the repayments started?

1:40 am

she rang don frantic, the other day, we have to sign the probate form she says. so don gets on his bike, rides down, and finds out it's the banking form he has to sign.

1:40 am

What is with her?

1:40 am

and he doesn't have the banking details with him. and yes, THE REPAYMENTS HAVE STARTED. it is soooo ironic.

1:41 am

Poor Don - is he letting it get to him?

1:41 am

don't think so. he is too bemused by her antics.

1:42 am

Bemused is good - stressed not good.

1:43 am

does anyone have a clue for de7 please? my last word

1:43 am

with the way interest rates are, she will have spent 25% of her inheritance before she gets it.

1:43 am

Sorry, Flosey - don't have it yet.

1:43 am

De plus a little flosey...

1:44 am

musical term, flosey, de6, pour into another container, add snake letter in third place

1:44 am

Like skimpy underwear

1:44 am

More fool her, Rose.

1:44 am

Thanks, Rose and Ru

1:49 am

et 6 / 7 pls?

1:50 am

et + start of laughing animal + not south-west

1:51 am

Thanks Rose - had the first 3 letters right but way off on the rest!

eccanil

5:19 am

I did , however, find some tasty breakfast baked items = sc 5/12 and 6/21

5:24 am

what a load of wasted esses

5:25 am

that is the pb for you jwr

5:26 am

oh good grief -- I don't believe I did that!

5:26 am

It would be funny if it weren't so stupid.

5:26 am

lol

5:27 am

... i'm going ... i'm going

5:27 am

what is even funnier is that i actually caught that

5:27 am

urk

5:28 am

brrrr... minus 35 wind chill values today

5:28 am

windows are all frozen shut and i can feel the cold pulsing off them in waves

5:28 am

hmph. well, it's just warm and dandy here in the pb. think I'll stay for awhile

5:29 am

i will have a nice pot of tea ready soon for the pb anyways

5:31 am

uh oh. Is that the milky British kind? Really. You shouldn't! ... After all, you're the one who needs the warm up.

5:32 am

no, not milky. i use only Ceylon Orange Pekoe and i brew it strong enough so you will have to arm wrestle it for the teaspoon

5:32 am

and served is a thick mug, not a dainty tea cup. this is brio tea lol

5:33 am

Ahh, that's perfect. But back to you, out there on the frozen tundra: did you leave the hot water faucet running just a little?

5:33 am

Just remembering 20 below when I lived in Colorado.

5:33 am

tea that, if you decide you do not wish to drink any more, you can use the remainder to clean the chrome rims on your car with it

5:34 am

we have well insulated pipes here, but i have had places where you do have to leave the tap running just a bit in these temps, or else

5:35 am

You do that to gentle Orange Pekoe? How cruel. I suppose it's to go with the cement-textured oatmeal??

5:36 am

yers ago, we used to have a place up north, and our primary source of heat was a central wood stove. it was the same thing every morning, everyone awake but nobody wanting to be the first to get up because the first person to get up have to get the fire going again from the coals and that floor was ice cold!

5:37 am

you have not lived till you have to, after getting the fire going , break a scrim of ice off the water in the toilet bowl so you can have a pee

5:38 am

Not on my toi... uh .... bucket list, crossy

5:38 am

crossy does not do oatmeal. oats are for horses:)

5:39 am

at least till the doctor cuts me off all the other breakfast foods that i like

5:42 am

anyways, time for crossy to hit the shower and hose down this mass of muscle, brb

5:44 am

What? You listen to your doctor? -- hey, these cross-conversations are making my head swim. Or maybe it's the tea. Either way, afraid I've gotta go back to work. Sending you a Japanese study wrap: it's like a "mummy" type sleeping bag or a big old gunny sack, made of eiderdown, open at the head. with eleastic sleeves that close at the wrist. You come steaming hot from a superheated bath into the bag, sit at your desk, and study away. Or Babble. ... me gotta go too bye

5:54 am

crossy is back. Japanese " study wrap" ?? i must google this one. Sounds like something i should get for my better half. She is not a winter type of person :(

5:56 am

mmm, google is having a tough time with it.:((

6:15 am

Try "human sleeping bag"

6:18 am

And it is time for Crossys shout out of the day!! today i would like to wish an early birthday to Misao Okawa , who will be 116 years old on March the 5th

6:23 am

lol, the "human sleeping bag is just a glorified snowmobile suit lol. too funny

6:27 am

after a day out on the trails, just do not bother getting undressed and you pretty much have it. :)

6:57 am

7:42 am

did you get much snow?

7:42 am

ty Molly, what is in a Morning Glory?

7:42 am

I find morning glory muffins hard to resist

7:43 am

i don't know what morning glory muffins are - special?

7:43 am

no, this time the more northern area of the state got none... apparently a late onslaught of cold air pushed the storm to the south

7:43 am

Carrots, apples, raisins, coconut, pineapple and pecans. They are awesome.

7:43 am

wow !

7:44 am

It's a recipe I save for special occasions and snowy days.

7:44 am

ohhh, doubt i could resist them as well - they sound amazing

7:44 am

did you actually bake some this morning molly?

7:44 am

Yes I did.

7:45 am

<-----------------impressed

7:45 am

Me too!

7:47 am

I like to bake, and the smell of those in the oven and coffee brewing is heavenly.

7:48 am

snow day or just an early riser?

7:48 am

Both

7:50 am

sounds like a perfect morning, fresh muffins, coffee, snow scene outside the window - and, being home and able to play babble is a bonus

7:51 am

esso .. I remember the ads

7:52 am

we still have esso stations up here - not in the states anymore?

7:52 am

Wow, I didn't know that there is just as much caffeine in strong tea (a two bag cup) as there is in coffee. I have learned my something new for the day.

7:52 am

haven't seen one, welki

7:52 am

Molly, I get all jangled by iced tea but love it

7:53 am

No Esso in the US for a long time.

7:54 am

My ice tea would wipe you out then Aloy. I make it pretty strong, but sweet and lemony.

7:54 am

i still put a tiger in my tank every now and again :)

7:55 am

love it on a hot summer day, but can't drink it in the pm or I'd be up all night... yes, welki, it is the tiger I remember!

7:56 am

It's always nice to switch to a new, desired job.

8:53 am

OK...I just need the first S in the last column?

8:53 am

Very good news Phan!

8:53 am

come on up! two 1/2 hours from bmore

i am curious to see how many new people we get form that link.

9:16 am

tempting, but too far, and Husband really doesn't do dancing, so, no...

ah. perhaps at blobs park before they close. but i am not sure they give lessonsn like we do.

9:19 am

I hope you have a fabulous time though!

i will but i have not yet figured out what to wear. no costume for me but i may do a dress

9:20 am

Howdy, y'all!

and i need to get a mask, hoping the place i saw them still has some.

howdy, judi! got snow? ;)

9:21 am

REading back in chat. Mardi gras party sounds fun. Wear anything, just accessorize with lots of beads, TO.

9:21 am

Hell yeah, we got snow. Too much of it again.

oh, there will be TONS of them. why don't you come?

9:22 am

I used to work with someone who had a dress made out of Mardi Gras beads. It was one of the coolest things I have ever seen.

wow. one of our members has a lobster costume, all sequins.

were they attached to a sheath?

9:24 am

LOL! That's original!

that is just an awesome idea, wish i had seen that. although my firend scoffs at the commercial, new orleans version of mardi gras in favor of the traditional rural festival.

9:27 am

Now, a sequined lobster wearing a beaded dress would REALLY be original.

the costume has a beret with the antennae

9:34 am

10:02 am

She is 12. Already has some degenerative paralysis in her rear leg. She was acting very odd Sunday a.m. Seemed disoriented. Was looking all around like she didn't know where she was. Didn't want to get off her bed.

10:03 am

Was panting like she was axious.

10:03 am

Anxious, rather.

10:03 am

She has perked up quite a bit, but still seems off a bit.

11:05 am

11:05 am

nbt and nbs

11:15 am

Well, the "consideration" of years gone by was not to spell out most of the word in the chat, but no one seems to care about that anymore.

11:16 am

And that is unfortunate.

11:21 am

Hello everybody

11:21 am

the only other ec word I know is ecdiast which I think means a stripper

11:23 am

... had to cheat and look them up but with ten to go i didn't feel like missing them

11:24 am

Hi folksies. We dodged the snow

11:24 am

that is lucky, bichon, but is it very cold there?

11:25 am

They predicted big snow for the Alps but I guess we're low enough not to have gotten any precip and it's gorgeous

11:27 am

It's extremely cold here. Lows in the single numbers, highs in the 20's.

please may i have a clue for the ye6

11:27 am

Why are the ec's vacuum cleaners

11:28 am

... they aren't ... but the root of the syllables following the ec are a television ad brand of vacumn

11:28 am

... to have said the word in the past

11:28 am

Jjenny: ye6 is a pt of an affirmative

11:29 am

hi all, back to hopefully finish

got it thanks

11:29 am

What is a "television ad brand of vaccum"?

11:30 am

a vacuum that costs a lot and purports to do a superlative job.. door to door salesman and lots of advertising

11:30 am

... someone typed it in the log about 5 minutes ago

11:31 am

supposed to have LOTS of suction, I don't know, have never owned one but an old friend likes hers a lot

11:32 am

rhymes with last name of boxer, Mike t****

I've had mine for three years....love it...and superior to the newer models of Electrolux. NO door to door sales .

11:33 am

hint for the et 6/7, pls

11:33 am

oh, ok

11:33 am

this house has a central vacuum system which no longer works, just like the in-floor heating

11:33 am

I think the wheels are coming off

11:34 am

et6,7 like the gas but with a diff vowel

I have, however, seen recent infomercials on the product.

11:35 am

ty ruby

11:36 am

No door to door salespeople here for that brand, no TV commercials either. I've had mine for years and it is a great vacuum.

11:37 am

Is that the dy brand, Molly? I'll have to see if they're available here as I think I need one....and soon or we will be smothered in dog hair and dander

11:37 am

My Lux is so old, but it works well

11:37 am

if it is well made and durable, it has most others beat

11:38 am

Ruby, they make a model specific for pet hair.

11:38 am

And my washing machine is making a horrible noise in the last cycle and it's a Miele, supposed to be the best. NOT!!

11:38 am

No shedding here

11:39 am

If Spring comes, this house will be unlivable

Hang onto it bichon.... my old Lux was the "best" and is still my downstairs (basement) vacuum. ( It has a metal cannister and is over 40 years old!)

11:41 am

I know someone who owns a vacuum repair shop. He has one of those vintage canister models in his store front window.

11:42 am

Mine isn't that old diane, maybe about 22

11:47 am

1:36 pm

5:23 pm

the co 4/7 that ends in sometimes vowel?

5:23 pm

I think I inadvertently messed you up, sorry!

5:23 pm

It's all good. I figured it out. I am easily confused...

5:23 pm

Saan, your clues were fine, more than clear.

5:24 pm

the co 4/5 is the rabbit; the co 5/16, 6 27 is the island

5:24 pm

5:24 pm

lol liz

5:45 pm

Oh my God, these co clues and the not getting them is killing me

5:45 pm

change the middle consonant to snake letter

ayiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

5:46 pm

Ah! Thanks. C's finally completely cilled!

5:46 pm

Thanks TO, it is a lot of work making those, but the finished product turns out nicely.

i am down to 17. might be list time

5:46 pm

12 left here - listed at 15!

5:47 pm

LOL..turned to list at about 60 left

is it brioce?

5:47 pm

Well, that was this morning - might've peeked at the list a bit last night!

and i LOVE the mask! I need to get one for saturday

5:48 pm

i have the ta 5/12 a mexican food plural am i missing one before that? i cant tell by the list exactly?

milfan: if you are using lickety you HAVE to be ablle to tell that.

5:49 pm

2 x ta 5/12 before that - I have one, with a different vowel ending and I'm missing one!

5:49 pm

Lickety's list shows 2 ta5/12 words before the mexican food

perhaps you are not using it correctly? or inputting directly into the list?

5:49 pm

lol lizwe will find them wont we?:)

5:49 pm

i know that molly

5:49 pm

Yup!

5:49 pm

i am flipping back and forth

may i suggest copying your word list and pasting it into lickety?

5:50 pm

brb

5:53 pm

thke words dont go into lickety anyway whe i type them in when i find them in the grid

5:53 pm

Oh my

5:54 pm

Mine also don't go in automatically - I copy / paste. Update every so often!

yes liz, that is the way. that tells you exsactly where any one word is in realtion the other

5:56 pm

liz i have used different browsers and have never been able to get them to go in automatically even when i have had the list on the same page as the grid

5:56 pm

Certainly does!

5:56 pm

how do you copy paste from one to the other?

5:56 pm

i know how to copy paste generally speaking

5:57 pm

That's weird mlf - someone explained to me about bulk add in lickety early on when I joined babble.

5:57 pm

liz same here

5:58 pm

this si why i have trouble keeping track if the list were on same page which i dont have and have had t before and they would go in it would be easier

5:58 pm

Lickety explains it pretty well on his page too.

5:58 pm

Tough for you!

5:58 pm

liz tell me about it

5:58 pm

That was meant to sound sympathetic - but I don't think it did :(

5:59 pm

i understood thanks lizi i appreciate it very much

6:00 pm

Fireworks!

6:00 pm

congrats liz

6:00 pm

Well done, naughty cluer : P

6:01 pm

Ty ;)

6:01 pm

But perhaps naughty clues are better than no clues!

6:01 pm

Oh, they are better all the way around : D

6:01 pm

i agree liz

6:01 pm

No one ever told me any rules to cluing!

6:02 pm

Trust me, there are no rules here.

well there used to be but it seems they are no longer in force. naughty clues were never prohibited, though.

6:02 pm

Time to head off and make some granola! Except the thought of turning on the oven is not appealing!

i think they were. most times, encouraged.

6:03 pm

it used to be that before 2am ie an hour after flip we could not ask for clues

6:03 pm

What rules TO? (Serious question)

6:03 pm

Most people don't clue that early on - yesterday was an exception with that ec run of words.

it used to be that no one asked for clues unless it was half an hour before the flip and they had exhausted all other means.

and not everyone finished.

6:04 pm

Oh come on. People clue at the flip all the time.

6:04 pm

liz i can imagine

6:04 pm

molly but it didnt used to be that way

yes. yes they do.

6:04 pm

I think more stats than clues are given

6:05 pm

for a while i didnt know of any means and ii had the list and board at the same time

6:05 pm

Wow, no clues until half hour before the flip? That would be nice.

i dont understand flip culture. if i happen to be on then i hide chat.

6:05 pm

liz probably more so lately yes

6:05 pm

I think I'd just list much earlier then!

6:05 pm

Flip's in the afternoon here - I either look or don't!

6:06 pm

i dont know what flip culture is either

6:06 pm

Flip time seems to have become very competitive. Who can find the words first and post about them. Not my idea of challenging in terms of playing this game.

molly: it was a real badge of honor to finish. i remember askiing the old timers how could you possibly know that word? they told me I would as well with time. and that happened.

6:06 pm

But then compared to you lot, I'm a real newbie here!

i was so happy the first time i did!

6:06 pm

molly i love to call them out at flip its exciting

6:07 pm

True TO! Some of the babblets now are just obvious -words I really didn't know!

6:07 pm

me too owl

and pardon me for asking this, again, molly...

6:10 pm

OK time to get the day properly started! Have a good evening all and feel better soon TO.

6:10 pm

owl?

6:11 pm

bye liz and thank you:)

6:11 pm

bye liz and thank you:)

6:11 pm

did you get that other ta 5/12?

6:12 pm

So many new players have no idea what a "babblet" is. So cluing a word "common babblet" doesn't help them a lot.

6:12 pm

i have two ta 5/12's at the moment

6:12 pm

i need one more word for the first column T but i will figure it out

6:12 pm

You're right Molly - I had a good teacher in rolin!

6:12 pm

molly lol nope but it will eventually

ty liz.i am taking a break

6:15 pm

now i need one more ta 5/12 i have the one under the first ta 4/5 or the first word in the list of TA words

6:20 pm

Do you have the Mexican food?

6:39 pm

Hello again...dinner in oven, rice cooking. Have 30 or so minutes to plow in again

6:49 pm

clue for the bottom right E for NBTs?

6:49 pm

Oh, and the right middle S.

6:49 pm

Even stats would help.

6:50 pm

6:50 pm

6:51 pm

thank you jilli - looking.

6:51 pm

6:52 pm

wow, thanks Jilli - I never would have gotten that!

6:52 pm

yvw roses6

6:53 pm

Gotta admit that the middle S on the right is still eluding me. the clue you gave seemed to come from another s.

6:55 pm

hmmm, not sure then...sorry

6:57 pm

OK, 40 left, listing with one blank tile and no 9s.

6:57 pm

Thank heavens for lickety!

hi phan

8:28 pm

how are you, Jane?

8:29 pm

not bad phan, and you?

8:29 pm

I think I might be coming down with a cold. I have a sore throat. I guess that could be a result of allergies too though.

8:30 pm

73 to go

8:30 pm

My asthma has been bothering me lately.

8:30 pm

Well, one nice thing about below zero weather--no seasonal allergies to worry about !

8:30 pm

it's warming up now, though.

8:30 pm

darn none of the 4 words I have were previously clued!

8:31 pm

No, I have animals that I am allergic to...

8:31 pm

or rather need to find...

8:32 pm

but I did figure out 2 of the words! :^D

8:34 pm

what are they phan, or is that breaking your code of ethics to ask?

8:34 pm

The words I found?

8:34 pm

or the words you need?

8:34 pm

SC 5/12 6/21 it's a yummy treat

8:35 pm

i may not be too useful

8:35 pm

since I'm just barely half way

8:35 pm

I am down to one I am trying to figure it out myself for now. I do think I will end up asking for a clue though

8:36 pm

odds are i won't have it, but we can work on it together.

8:36 pm

well, it is the on 5/10

8:37 pm

oh, got it! FW for me!

8:37 pm

8:37 pm

8:38 pm

Thanks, Jane.

8:38 pm

8:39 pm

8:41 pm

8:41 pm

8:42 pm

I don't ever clean house so I was just repeating a clue i had earlier.

8:42 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing

8:42 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!

8:43 pm

hi Min. running on empty, need sleep, but only have 10 words left.

8:43 pm

That may be part of the reason my allergies have flared up, Jane, I don't clean well enough!

8:43 pm

you can do it, LBD!

8:43 pm

My theory is leave it all alone so it won't bother you....

8:44 pm

I'm the feeling the exact same way, but I got 14 words left

8:44 pm

change the filter in your furnace. that will help with allergies.

8:45 pm

I think it has been recently changed, will ask hubby

8:45 pm

We started out our marriage believing that we could keep the cats out of our bedroom. They body slammed the door all night until we finally relented. After about a month my poor dear husband developed a tolerance.

8:46 pm

there are no animals allowed in my room and we don't have a problem keeping them out. Thank goodness!

8:47 pm

Mine were BORN in that room and didn't know any better.

off to the pillows. hi/bye Nef

9:47 pm

night, Lbd.

9:47 pm

Hi, Nef.

9:48 pm

Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

9:51 pm

hi/bye, lbd! Hi phand and Min. I thought everyone left; so I was checking back in chog

9:52 pm

Hello Nef! How are you doing today? Welcome to the chog.

9:52 pm

I'm doing fine, Min. How are you doing these days?

9:53 pm

I'm happy that the storm forecasted for today stayed south

9:54 pm

I am gonna sign off now as well. hagn all.

9:54 pm

I'm here, Nef--just passed half way and that's my usual goal. Book: will finish proofing bk 7 tmr, end of Vol 3, but still lots of loose ends for vol 3. Jeremy's calling at 8 tmr morning, to continue checking all the mistakes we've found. So Babble is a break and relaxation. Saw all the ec clues early this a.m. and ow late, but they beat me. How are you?

9:54 pm

Did you get a snow day; or didn't they do that last night (called off school in preparation for the storm)?

9:56 pm

sorry...i got distracted...heading to bed...g'nite all....

9:56 pm

the snow didn't amount to much, steets cleared, nothing called off--EXCEPT the Cj hi Poles have mahaged a state holiday so all the schools were closed AGAIN, this time for Kasimer Pulaski day. I don't know how we clelbrate it--I should ask the Poles. I think he was a hero.

9:56 pm

I'm doing fine, RB. Took DH to the neurologist today for his usual 3 month follow-up; he will be having more stuff (testing, therapies, and possibly a new med or 2) in the near future. Darn MS>

9:58 pm

Who the heck is Kasimer Pulaski? (I'll Google him; I've never heard of him before though)

9:59 pm

I'll sign off now that I've seen you, Neg, and try to find where in the book(s) I have Pat breaking her bow obver Jo's head--three times (in the book, not the bow that was once.) Some memories stick in everybody;s minds.

10:00 pm

Pat thinks maybe Jo broke it over her head, but I said no--you sent me your diary long ago, and you were the one. In a fit of Pique. I don't know who Kasimer Pulaski is. They should all stay in school and learn about him--Illinois kids have mised so much school. Wis kids, too.

10:01 pm

Take some breaks when you can, RB. You deserve it! (And it seems that Kasimer Pulaski was a US revolutionary war hero. I do not recall ever hearing of him though

10:02 pm

SUpposedly, he's "the father of the American cavalry".

10:02 pm

Chicago Poles are pretty persuasive. Or were, when they got the state holiday passed. We take off Lincoln's actual birthday, too. Favorite son.

10:03 pm

Wow! Between holidays like that and weather days; how do the kids learn anything any more? ;-)

10:06 pm

they have to stay later in June. I THINK THE TEADHERS MIGHT LIKE IT IF THEY CAME AN EXTRA sATURDAY OR TWO--MAKE UP SNOW DAYS.

10:08 pm

I'm going to poink now like /crossy does, after taking to you, dear nef. Get ready for Jermy calling at dawn. I am so tired of inverted commas. But we have to net them all. Too bad there's not a market for them, and misplace semi colons, etc. goodnight, and poink.

10:08 pm

I bet they would prefer that too. By June; everyone just is too antsy to study and they want out of school ASAP

10:08 pm

okay, Good night, RB!

10:12 pm

hi all! back to finish...

10:14 pm

Hi sue. How are you tonight? (I seem to be the only chatty person left....)

10:27 pm

Goodbye uuse2! I will see you tomorrow in the chog maybe

10:41 pm

hi again. I'm not sure why our grandson was still awake; but as soon as I lay down and sang a lullaby, he fell sound asleep! (Maybe he was protecting his ears from my singing!)

10:51 pm

Hello Nef! That is the great thing about grandkids, they do not care how you sing.

10:53 pm

Very true, Min. He thinks I'm "very pretty", very old, and he loves my singing! (I mean, I've gotta love him for that! 2 out of 3 is pretty good!

11:11 pm
