could not sleep so i thought i would play some babble
poor you mari. is your head still on go?
I think it is my pressure
would a mug of warm milk help?
If i stay up for awhile that helps sometime
well whatever it takes, mari. i hope it works and you can soon have sweet dreams.
hi everyone
andree!! {{hugs}} welcome home. how was your holiday?
it was great
i went to chaingmai for the flower festival among other things lovely trip, river kwai is sobering
looking forward to seeing some of your pics, dear.
ha ha there are about a thousand i am still sorting through them, one of the highlights was patting the tigers at the tiger temple i will see if i can remember how to change my photo
just pick out a few, enough to make me drool....lol
i seem to have stuffed it up completely
hi gals!! Andree, good to see you - and that's a beautiful pic of you and the tiger, I can see it. :)
it might not show yet in chat unless you refresh here or there, but when I clicked your pic it came up. Big, but nice!
do they just lounge around like that all the time? they all look so relaxed.
well, anyway, just wanted you to know you didn't stuff it up, as you said, it worked. And now I have fireworks, yay... talking to myself, heeheehee! ;p
What are the stats for the lone 'm' in the bottom row, please?
me6/24
WTG RBUD!!!!
thanks
i can't see my tiger yet
Hi Andree - I see your tiger if I go into your profile - awesome!
have no idea how to fix it, all i see is an out of focus corner of my previous photo
Sorry - can't help! I only ever put the Tigger pic into mine when I joined babble a few years ago and i can't remember!
Perhaps it'll show up if you turn your computer off and then on again or after babble does its reset.
well if you can see the tiger maybe if i close down back later
andree click on your profile in chog, then right click in your profile, not on the picture. you will see the circular refresh arrow. click on that.
Knew you'd be able to help :)
i will email the instructions to her as she has gone.
she just put it in full size, so all she's seeing when she looks may be the top left corner. When I copied and pasted it into Irfanview, it automatically made it the size of the screen instead - great pic.
I agree - lovely picture.
my sis used to send me pics in emails that were huge like that, poster-sized, I used to call it - they're fine once sized down to a manageable size.
rbud, neither she or i could see it. i can now.
I don't see it in the chog but I do if I click on her to see her profile.
but the bigger the better as far as details, really - if you plan to print any out, the big ones are the best (but you print them smaller of course.)
BBL
hope to see you and sprite then liz girl. xoxox
dinner ready. bbl. xoxox
good morning all
yay!! just finished dinner and here is sprite. {{hugs}} dear friend
hello my darling :) Just done paying bills with Cobi, waiting for my love to call me back on a tax issue. Otherwise all good here. *hugs*
how are you today?
that's good sprite. i am okay. email pretty much explains all.
my email service is down :( Will try again in a few minutes
oh okay. not hung over this morning. about 10 minutes after i got up i was bright eyed and bushy tailed...as they say...*grin*
hehehe awesome. And how did you sleep?
not too bad at all. woke briefly at about 1:30, then apart from waking for meds slept til 9:30am. planning on taking med in about 1/2 hour.
and your night, dearest girl. how was it?
wow sounds good, darling.
my night was horrible. Very ugly dreams.
ugh, not what i want for you, dear
no and it looks like rob made some kind of mistake when filling in papers for tax purposes, related to his company car. Sigh. I really hope we can turn things back.
step-grandson changed his mind several times about coming over to look at don's ute(car). i think i might text son, and tell him the kid has a week to make a decision. we are not here at his beck and call. he is actually getting a great bargain. $10,000 and only 50,000km on the clock of a 7 year old car.
that is a golden deal. Yes, I think setting a limit is what is called for. And once it is over, sell the car to a stranger. Or a garage. Whatever.
can't you text the kid directly?
Hi and hugs, ladies :)
no, sprite. and just spoke to don, the old softie. he says no....to wait a bit longer.
hi and *hugs* right back at ya, dear Liz! Are you settled, back home?
{{hugs}} liz girl
All settled now. Normal humdrum stuff! NZ seems a long time ago!
I think another weeks qualifies as 'a bit longer'. Let son know that the car will go on public sale on 17 march.
I have been green from envy, Liz, lol. Well, no, not envy. But jealousy, yes. Would have loved being there with you!
i hear, sprite. you wanna shout that a tad louder....himself is a trifle deaf.
I wish that too. Would've been great. Rose too.
I'll shout too!
YOOOOO! Don, ma man!!!!! Get dem fingers on dem keys and tell the kid to move his ass!
yeah, one ear is full of cake, the other full of jelly and cream. between them is a trifle.
Like sprite said or rather shouted :)
<---- known for her tact and patience
lol! Never heard that one before, rose
Yum - trifle.
i was a little dubious as to whether you knew what a trifle was, please forgive me if i offend.
hey, why should I be offended if you think I don't know every word in english? LOL
sprite, when i am over there?? i will make you the trifle to end all trifles. chocolate and sherry.
Make me one too, puhleeeeeze!
oh, okay, if you insist....col
Yay!
when we come up....and it will be this year...
More yay! We might be down in September-ish!
well i am looking at june/july. which do you suggest?
sorry, telephone. Back now
oh, liz, did you miss sprite??
July would probably have more whales! But either is good. Both cold by my standards! Lol and innocently, no!
ok... hold on... rose, darling, you planning on coming here this year? I thought we were holding off for another year because of operations and shit to come?
* giggling *
Cross convos here methinks!
ok now you completely lost me, lol. Did Liz miss me? Where? Why?
liz's trip much shorter, darling sprite. when i come to you i need to be able to walk as much as needed.
ahhhh you were talking about going to Liz. Perfect. Yes, so we are still on for next year.
sorry to break the sad news, sprite. neither liz or i missed you when you left for the phone. * ducks behind don *
it would be awesome if you could walk for a stretch, rose. You can see a lot more that way. But if not, we will wheel you everywhere, lol.
awwwww :( Now I am sad...
Course it was a bit quiet in here for a while,.
* giggling * throws water bomb at sprite....nah, nah, nah
hm... was talking with my love... guess I didn't miss you gals either. *Chucks pitcher of icewater in rose's decollete*
thanks Liz. Good to know someone usually listens when I talk...
Yikes QLD is in the way of the ice water!
gee thanx sprite. the girls just went on high-beam and don is looking very interested.
yep, that icewater trick works every time. Come on Don, warm them up for her.
QLD?
oh, no.....ROFLOLOL
short for queensland
Queensland - where I live. North of Melbourne.
ah. Lol! Duck, Liz!
Hot and humid here :( might try to catch the ice.
Was so nice having no humidity inNZ
lol @ ge6/27. Sure looks like the plural of one of our eastern neighbours.
what? No humidity there? I might consider moving there.
DONT HAVE THAT
Oops! Sorry.
sprite, new zealand is the best. i wish i could afford to move there.
No, it was lovely not feeling hot and sweaty.
Good clue though, sprite.
tomorrow don and i are actually going to visit his sister who is in remission from melanoma. going to the flicks and dinner/lunch afterwards.
Sounds good. What film?
okay, have taken knock-out pill. going to get others ready. brb
good plans, rose. Great she is in remission.
Of course that's the best - took that statement as read.
yeah, what movie?
second best exotic marigold hotel
Want to see that.
Loved the first film.
lovely movie
Time for me to go. Hugs to both of you.
want to see the 2nd too
{{hugs}} liz girl. xoxox
bye lix *hugs* for you both
liz*
patience, my darling sprite.i will get it to you ASAP. * jammies on, teeth cleaned, meds ready.*
trying to call tax office. 4357574363 choice menus and now i am on hold...
okay....if you disappear i'll know where to find you.
lol yes. Banging on their door with a jackhammer
how are you doing with the grid, sprite?
tel
np's sprite
sorry sweetie. I got through to them! Amen Good Lord!
why are tax issues always so flippin' complicated???? And why has my love supcompliscured it even further?
that rose. Either ran off hunting a squirrel or fell asleep right on top of the keyboard...
* opens eyes * oh hello sprite. did i miss something? * sheepish look *
nah, nothing important. Hello my darling. Good nap?
did your love complicate things?
yes. Checked the wrong box on a form, lots of problems. Trying to solve them for him before we have to pay lots of taxes over his company car.
*rolls eyes* oh dear...and of course he will deny he did it...
noooo that is not his style, lol. He gave it to me after weeks of having it in his agenda... and postponing it out of panic... kinda like I am with bills. He has that with bills and taxes. Nice couple we are, right?
you poor darlings. {{ hugs for you both }}
thanks :) I think I have solved it, now all we have to do is make sure the right documentation gets to the right place.
i drive don to the edge of reason. i don't run around frantic to pay a bill on time, but i will pay it, when i think of it.. don....must pay everything on the exact day, has to be early or dead on time...okay...a touch of OCD perhaps.
sounds like it
ah, DST... hiccup is an hour earlier for me
fireflies
WTG SPRITE!!!
rose, the website of my ISP says they expect the mailservers will be back up in 2 more hours. Will respond (and read) later :) A big *hug* and get yourself in bed, sweetie. Sweet dreams.
thanx dear heart. i hope your day is pleasant to you. xoxox
see you in a few days, darling. Be well.
enjoy, sweetie. i hope you have everything you need and desire. xoxox
Good morning, everyone:)
Hello and good morning!
Nice! Found the 8!
I haven't had any coffee yet, so this is a big feat for me.
some of my best work is done while half-awake
What are the stats for the lone 'r' in the last column, please?
ri5/12
thanks got it
ty
Morning all.
Howdy, Sukee
Hi crossy.
just found the 8:)
:)
wtg, I thought it was good I got the last column, all 4 :)
:)
I still need the I in the last column
something you put in your shoe
ah ty:)
I had the root word;)
waaaaay to many vowels....
Going to gym today, have missed about a month due to the cold and the snow.
Take it slow
I start my pool PT today
I cannot wait for the hiking trails to open up. I am so out of shape. The snowshoeing helped, but it is really not my thing.
IT's going up to 4 degrees today, feels like summer
Tomorrow they say 7
it is nice:)
I am not wearing my boots today :)
Stats please for the O in the fourth column?
minus 2c here atm, and I have the living room window open:)
NM...found it.
Yes, I opened the window yesterday. The cat ran around like a kitten when he got a whiff.
Very nice!
Nice to have windows that are not frozen shut under 3 inches of ice and CAN open:)
phantom: sommelier
oi5, please?
sorry got it need the oi6, please?
got the oi6 as well
I don't have either, I'm sorry.
lol, when you type something wrong and find another word :)
Well do ne!
Clue please for the SO 7?
NM! found it. Sorry again!
no7, please?
most of a din + S*** one to Watch Over Me.
And now it is time for Crossy's tidbit of the day!!(those who do not care for it, you have been warned, and can avert your gaze for a bit) lol...
The creators of Gilligan’s Island named the S.S. Minnow after the FCC chairman at the time, Newton Norman Minow. Gracious though it may seem, it was actually a backhanded compliment: Minow famously called television “a vast wasteland.â€
how about the other no7?
I have the no7/36
There is an no 7/32 which means making sounds
actually it means offensive
good morning dear friends, and my darling CAR
howdy trif:)
NO + what some people are called in the country, Soodle, Lives.
thanks got it
crossy, you might like to know (or you might not care at all, but I am telling EVERYONE) that our tiny little high school team is DOMINATING in hockey this season, and won again last night, so we are off to the semi finals! It's a HUGE dearl
dael
deal. Jesus. Daylight savings much?
I love the extra. Soon we will have those days that seem to go on forever:) light in the evening
mm... sentence fragments...blame it on DST:)
I must admit - it was nice driving to work with the sun coming up, rather than in the pitch dark. But THANK GOD for coffee
Clocks do not go forward here in the UK until 29th March
I am glad your team is kicking butt, Trif
in other news - found a lost dog, and saw it properly returned to its owner. seeing her joy and relief was so cheering. Felt like I had really done a good deed
Junior hockey is often a superior viewing experience over the pro stuff.
It is a "purer" form of hockey
one bummer note is that the captain took a NASTY fall and broke his tibia about halfway through the game. "Better" injury than an ACL or MCL tear, but the poor kid! Semifinals of his senior year!
ouch!
our goalie is UNREAL - a sophomore, and just STELLAR. I was so impressed
Well, all the other players can be good at what they do, but if you have a terrible goalie, you may as well go golfing:)
any Red Dwarf fans? Enable won't take Kryten's favorite word
Ha! I DID go golfing yesterday Crossy! In three feet of snow...it was HILARIOUS
lol! that's the spirit!
you're spelling it wrong, when Kryten says it, it has at least 3 e's :)
Good for you, buggie!!!!!
Actually, crossy, we were just at a driving range, but still, it was SO FUN. Trying to hit over snowbanks is an EXCELLENT way to practice getting loft. Additionally, there is a strange cathartic satisfaction to driving a ball full speed into a snowbank. Like slapping the snow in the face, if you will
When i used to golf we always tried to hit the machine that vacuums up the golf balls:)
I half wonder when this place is going to run out of balls, as they are happily letting people slam them into the snow
They are just grateful for the early business. They will have some poor slob digging them out later on
this one place never closes, except for Christmas day.
We have indoor driving ranges that are much more practical:)
easier to collect the balls as well:)
I think there is one near here, but it's something like $40 an hour. Nope
Once the hugs piles of snow are gome it will be soon enough to open the outdoor ranges
that is expensive!
I wish I could think of some way to string up a net of some kind in my yard, then I could shoot balls all day
With our ranges you generally pay by the bucket of balls
That way you are not feeling rushed to make your shots
yes, for the outdoor range we do. But this indoor one is at a posh club in an affluent town near here, and is the only indoor range I know of, so supply and demand applies
:(
ok. I must be off. i am on volunteer duty at the school today. Tc all, and happy babbling!
gm, everyone! clues for the oc6's?
I don't have them lbd, but I wish you a very good morning
or the or6's (blush, not oc's)
good morning, Trif
OI 6/21 greasemen. compound word.

mother's day is coming :)
enjoy the day, Trif

RI + most of large boats.
Sorry, dawg.Saw your clue just after I posted..lol
thnx to both of you
it was a close call there, zooz. and yw wv
halfway, NBT and NBS - time for a break - BBL this afternoon
I found the 8! now collapse again from being messed up by DST...zzzzzzzz....
hello
this grid seems a bit difficult today or is it just me?
In class now , and it is the last week before exams. The kids are waking up from their long winters sleep and panic reigns throughout the class. :/
sounds like fun cross
They have had over a week to write a 5 paragraph structured essay and get it on before the final assignment centering around a novel they were supposed to have read.
get it in*
did you do it cross?
this is ENG3C and 4C I did those classes last year and am here simply as a helper
lucky you:)
try and pull some of these kids out of the fire;)
easier said then done cross?
They like to "fiddle while Rome burns" They screw around right up to the last second and think they can get it all done in the last week. well, they are finding that it does not quite work out that way.
typical college kids
I did it the other way around. I did 16 hour days grinding away, got it all done and had the last week or so free.
They laughed at the old man, but a 92% in my ENG4U final exam now lends authority to my suggestions;))
of course it does
i can't even get nbt with this grid
it is a tough little grid
hello
hello pen
howdy, penquis

Good morning
hi...
suns out and we're going to be warmer today, over 40.
same here....but sun is not quite out yet...
My mood has bettered just by having the sun out
That is nice to hear Bich. I've heard nothing but whining and complaining about Daylight Saving Time since the middle of last week. Seems it's big drama for some people to adjust the time by one hour.
Well, yes, DST, but mostly having the sun out, and warmer temps and no threats for snow storms
Hopefully, winter is behind us. And good riddance.
We are going to the Bay Area on the 18th for a week to visit the grands. I hope to see a lot less snow on the ground
time to scoot.. Happy Babbling all.. poof
Bit of help with the second column top E please?

Starts like loud stuff, ends like so4 of us aren't so lucky
Molly, jpc needs the other one
are there 2 no7/32?

Oops, French for night and "like" suffix but too late
And it's not night, it's a film genre so I totally botched the cluing. : S

copy*
hi all, clue for the no7/32 (have the one that ends with so4/5) pls
nm monkeyed it
morning
Wow, someone should write something like that. Maybe use the comparison of hearing a different drummer. Oh wait, already been done.
I want to be in a storytelling troupe called The Different Drummers.
That would be a great name for a story telling troupe
stats for the bottom M?
me6/24 me + cons + guys
thanks (how do those guys breed, anyway?)
with milt???
so7?
don't have it, but am looking
nbt, finally!
nm .FW
Everything has already been done before. All writers know that there are only seven original ideas-- everything else is just plagiarism with your own personal spin on it.
a singular person.
nbt nbs
Hi crossy.
Even that statement has already been said before;)
Howdy, mixi
Ah yes, one vague writer's idea that there are only seven great plots (not ideas) Some people believe that.
the pleasure is always in the personal spin though
Sigh. think I will be back later.
I agree 2Bit. The personal spin is what makes each story unique.
just read through the chat - does everyone have the no 7's now?
Hello everyone
Molly, yes, that is the monster machine I was attached to as a child to get Shirley Temple curls
NO 7/32 - offensive odor - begins like something loud and ends like "just a few" - so 4/5
don't have list to know if there is more than that
the other no 7: no + people from the emerald isle
thnx nan
black-like :)
ty, nan
nomunchkins
damn it
hi ruru, you put a smile on my face
mmmm... munchkins
2nd mo 6, please?
In Ru's world leprechauns = munchkins and The Princess Bride = The Princess Diaries : P
Starts like a singular prefix and ends with a religious suffix
mo6, that is
I would have copied and pasted the definition (any of various theories holding that there is only one basic substance or principle as the ground of reality, or that reality consists of a single element) but I doubt anyone knows what that means
is sthat the 1st mo 6 or the 2nd, molly? -- looking for the 2nd
2nd
First has a "like" suffix
change last consonant for the fisrt
oh - ok - got it
ty -- had the 1st and just could't see the other
Does religious suffix work as a clue?
not until I realized what the suffix was --- belief suffix would have worked for me though
not for me....totally lost. and Hi all
oh wait....got it now. DUH
*!* ta da *!* - thanks for the help :-)
may I please have the count for the right column r please?
ri 5/12
ri 5/12
thank you annie
ri 5/12

Ah, I will try to remember "belief suffix"
must get going - the grapes are about to break into leaf, so have to get the vines sprayed with lime sulphur -- back at the flip
nbt at LOOOONG last
wtg trif
thank you! Huzzah to you on finishing1
can I get a clue for no 7/36 please
to feed someone...
I have no 4/5 but cant seem to add to it for no7
not that n....
not that root word...
One no7 is unGaelic, the other sounds like a description of something loud
The other ends in ....Like It Hot...movie
I have both no 7/32 ...I just dont see the other no7-36
top N....to feed someone...
I have that one Molly
the grid ends with letter S so isn't that the 3rd letter
after no 4/5
DUMB ME....THANKS!!!
whew!!
No root word, see Pen's clue
yes, I got it and thank you penquis and Molly
I can't type fast enough today. Might as well quit while I'm not ahead.
No quitting for you, Molly
was there a clue for RI 5/12?
Ends like Japanese raw fish edible
back again, was booted
thx
hello everybody. Needed a break from real life. Husband is having surgery on Wednesday and this has been a horrible winter even though our weather continues to be splendid.
hello ruby
Hello Westofrd. It's been a while.
real life keeps getting in the way
Real lie is unbearable at the moment.
life*
I know.
(trying to eat dinner and type t the same time)
will you be able to stay at the hospital with your husband?
eating is good what are you having?
No. I'll check him in tomorrow and then go back when he's in the recovery room, but the clnic is a 1/2 hour drive and although my friends are driving us around, I really am not in shape to stay there for too long.
I am having brandade from the local rerstaurant. It is one of my newly-discovered favorite dishes
sounds like it's made with brandy
No no, it's just codfish smushed up with delicious potatoes and baked with cheese on top.
I never knew I liked codfish.
anything seafood is always delicious
It may even be made with the dried stuff'I'm not really sure
how are you feeling ?
Unfortunately, except for this dish, seafood here is not good enough and expensive. I'm spoiled by having grown up in NY
The pleurisy continues. I've had a couple of good days (not consecutively) and then the pain comes back. It is exhausting
that is too bad
I didn't know about the pleurisy
what can they do for it ?
I rarely come into the chat any more because all I do is whine and it must be unpleasant for whoever is here
don't worry about that
Since it's the dry kind, just a tear in the pleura, there is no treatment except for the pain and even the strongest opiates barely work
how do you get the tear
My husband was helping me a lot, but now that he's down for the count, I am relying on everybody else.
and everybody is glad to help I'm sure
what surgery is he having?
Some years ago, I got a fractured sternum from the airbag in a car crash. A false movement in the garden, tore the already damaged pleura.
ouch
He has a double inguinal hernia which he's had for a long time. It has now become too painful for him
he'll be recovering for a long time
just what you needed to hear
I feel very sorry for him as he has become very confused and can't keep track of what's going on.
I'm making arrangements for people to come in the afternoons to help him walk around, but I can't help him at all.
you both need a full time nurse
He fell the other day and had to crawl on all four to find a way to pull himself up. I couldn't do anything but stand there
well at least he made it
I have a housekeeper in the mornings and she walks the dogs, makes a fire, feeds the birds and helps with the shopping and I'll have her and a visiting nurse come in the afternoon for him.
It was really touching when he fell because both dogs were all over him, licking him and snuggling
they always know what helps
I'm sure if they could have they would have lifted him up and carried him to bed
When I have a lot of pain my Rufie puts his big paw right on the spot on my chest
that's love
Enough of me.
I can't imagine life without dogs
have you always had them ?
I got my first chow in 1990 and have had 7 altogether. I had no idea that I was a dog person until my husband gave me the first one, Rosie
it sounds like a mutual admiration society
Ya think? And Rufie is the best of all.
all named R except for Max ?
Hi Westford & ((((Rubes)))).
I think many of us pick a special breed and stick with it, knowing their characteristics, aesthetics and their sweet natures.
Hi Soodle I was just thinking about you ? You're coming to see Ruby and Burt soon, aren't you ?
And speaking of sweet natures, SOODLE!!!!
Ruby - so sorry to hear your recovery is so slow. Bless you!
And Cleo, the two black ones
First she is going on an exotic trip to the sunshine and bach!!
beach*
a muscial tour ? lol
Rubes - I totally misunderstood your reference to Jigidy..... I thought Jigidy was a newcomer to Babble. Lol
that's what I figured
That is too funny, soodle, jigidi is the best/worst time-waster imaginable and I love it
we finally have sunshine but the snow just won't quit
We've had very little snow, truly wonderful weather.
I think you NNNNNNNortheasterners have had it the worst of all, Westford
(had a little n trouble)
In the past week - we have had snow, ice, gales, hail, glorious sunshine, sub zero temps... Literally every sort of weather imaginable.
it's been pretty bad..and so cold
That's fnny for Ireland, isn't it?
take your pick sood and then stick with the one you like best
My sister is in NY and has been miserable.
Lol. There's nothing funny about Irish weather!
Are the flowers up yet?
going to get something to eat..so far all I've had is coffee and a hot cross bun
The daffodils are just about to bloom. :-) my favourite flowers.
sounds like a good start
hugs to both of you
you, too, Westford, it was lovely to see you
Bye, West. :-)
Ours are in bud but seem shorter this year.
then again, so do I lol
Lol. Ruby, you are a giant of a woman! Sorry, old pal - I must go & do stuff. ((()))

welcome to the game Chica15
and hello ladies
chic and i go way back....perhaps 15 years....used to play boggle online together....
Hi Bugs!
Hi hego. I love your pictures of the foreign lands! Please keep them coming
Pen, you have been playing word games on the computer for 15 years? Wow.
Will do!
yes....
I was in Florida last week. Does that count?
I guess the foreign lands comment is another Facebook reference.
i registered here maybe 7 or 8 years ago....but played irregularly and lurked....
chic is in FL right now....
yes, I thought she was in Italy but my memory is not so good. Florida works too.
lol. I was in Italy in September.
The pictures are still up.
I have seen Chica here a few times but it is always nice to be properly greeted when formally becoming one of the group.
very nice, bugs...
Bugs is always very nice. :)
Agreed :-)
Agreed :-)
Isn't there a way to comment on Facebook pictures on Facebook?
yes, Molly
thank you friends. I remeber how welcome I felt when greeted
no idea....don't do facebook....
yes Molly. Just under the picture is the word Comment so click on it and a box will appear
I thought so. Seems odd that people comment about Facebook stuff here.
good grief.... and why not ?
are some topics out of bounds here now? I must have missed something
Why not? Wetalk about everything else.
No Bugs, no problem at all.
Just one more thing for you to complain about Molly, and I am tired of biting my tongue.
especially when ruru is around. Nothing is sacred then!!
can someone please clue the eo6/21?....my last word...
Hi Diane. My comment was similar
No topics are out of bounds here. But not everyone is a Facebook person and not everyone is "friends" with certain people. If there is a way to comment on Facebook, it seems like that is the place for those comments. But hey, whatever.
I like, Hey whatever.
eo6 ends with a trangression
Sorry if you feel left out, but we can discuss whatever we like here.
i have eo 5/10....does eo 6 also end with transgression?
I don't feel left out. And yes, feel free to discuss what you want.
Hi
Pen it ends the same as the JI 4/10
Hi Bichon :)
sorry penquis. I got distracted and don't have the 6 either....
ty zooz....i am done!
And Diane, I wasn't complaining, I asked a question. I thought that was something that was okay to do here too.
Congrats, Pen!
YAY penquis
