fw and goodnight all - has been a busy weekend
Just read your notes for today, uusue - hoping for really good news for Frank and for
for Cheshire - sorry - Bandaid on my finger means hitting the return button too often. Best for all - back to morrow.

thank you flosey and arb - good night everyone

hi, I really should not be up. Planning my first ever Europe trip, and I just think better in the wee hours. Have booked my Amsterdam accommodations via airbnb. psyched.
thanks for the clue, dear ARB. How are you?
hi, cybernan, in case you haven't quite exited (;
melon, how excited you must be.
I am! I'm getting help planning from friend who are experienced travelers. I'll be there about four weeks plus a layover in Iceland, and a few nights in NYC on either end of the trip. I will be AWOL from my worries!
Heh, mosh not a word?
no it's not. go figure!!
nbt
so apart from amsterdam where else are you going?
and you simply cannot go to amsterdam and not make time to visit with sprite.
Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Regensburg, where a friend of mine from music school lives (she's the one who gave me that nudge I needed), Paris, then back to NYC via Iceland.
Oh, thank you for mentioning sprite! I'd better write this down as I no longer Babble so frequently.
Hi mel and rose and hugs.
Yes, you must visit Sprite - I did last year and she's so lovely. Mind you - so's Rose - visited her last week :)
I have a long term substitute teaching position at our local high school thru june 4. Five days a week! How barbaric! Glad I stopped in to play. Hi, too, dear Lizlin. I will try to come back soon.
Totally barbaric! So glad i gave up teaching. Too much to do!
I can see how teachers burn out. I have some ornery kids.
Especially in the UK - don't know about the states.
Now I'd best hit the hay. I'm at work in 5 hours! Nite! [poof]
But at least it's temporary for you :) Sleep well.
Stuff to do here too - so bye Rose - sorry not to chat to you :( Have a good evening
sorry to miss you lizgirl
What are the stats for the one 'o' in the 2nd column, please?
or4/4 marc
thanks
good morning all
hello sweetie
rose!!!!!!!!!!!! Lovely to see you. Great that you feel up to computer. How are you now?
a little better thanx. doc suspects atypical pneumonia. have had reams of blood teats and x-rays today.
ummmm please read... tests
HELLO, my friends. How lucky to see you both at the same time
ugh, not good. Poor you. Have been holding you in my thoughts and prayers a lot!
{{rosie}}
thanx dearest. i felt you there.
blood teats huh... serious business, lol
hi ruby
hello ruby :)
have you been able to eat something today, rose?
not yet, sprite. but tummy is rumbling for the first time in almost a week.
ah, that is a good sign.
name that proper noun: opera by puccini?
tosca
clever ruby
dingdingeding our ruby wins the toaster!
that's the only part that still works lol
how are things at your side, ruby?
burt is healthy but totally memory-less
are you looking into options to have him institutionalised, ruby?
I think my chest is improving, but I'm still getting the scan on the 26th. My son is coming on the 21st, solo, and I'm very happy about that
ah that is good. Both of it.
it is too soon, sprite, he could never manage with his nonexistent language skills and poor hearing
both parts* of it
For the moment, with help from the housekeeper and my friends, I am able to keep him going
brb
am glad your chest is improving.
it stull hurts, but nothing like during the winter
I think it would be foolish to cancel the long-awaited scan, especially if it comes back
I would feel like a jerk
indeed. Have the scan, I think it is important.
just to rule out any grave possibilities
uh oh, I hear thumping upstairs....see you later
ok ruby, all the best
tc ruby
wb rose
when will you hear the results of all the testing, rose?
tomorrow's appointment with doctor. it will take a few more days for the blood and urine cultures.
ok. take care, ok? take your time healing up and getting back your strength?
biggest thing planned is a dinner for one of don's mates birthdays, but not until next saturday.
if you don't feel up to it yet, let him go by himself. Dinner parties can be exhausting.
don't worry , that is exactly what i have already planned.
good :) We need you to get back your health first of all!
besides i have to be able to eat. it's a chinese banquet.
tasty but way too early, probably
i'll see. if i am eating again by wednesday i should be okay.
as long as you take really good care of yourself, sweetie. If it is/was pneumonia, you need lots of time to heal up properly. Caya once had an atypical pneumonia and we didn't recognise it, she didn't cough more than usual and her temps weren't alarming. But it was a pneumonia anyway and it took her ages to get over it, since it was not treated in time.
not to scare you, just saying please take it easy.
the tests and x-rays were all appropriate for atypical pneumonia. also septicaemia, and kidney infection.
*hugs rose*
thanx honey. i have so missed your hugs.
*giggles* That was because I never stopped holding you, silly
aaaaahhhhh. *snuggles in*
There. Just relax and focus on getting better. Don takes care of the rest.
i think the antibiotics are beginning to work. otherwise i couldn't have kept the chat happening. i suffered from a lot of fade out.
my poor friend. quite a rotten illness :(
fireflies
WTG SPRITE!!!
thank you :) Will you go back to bed now? I will go back to work. *hugs* and be careful, my darling.
i will. you enjoy your day sweetie. xoxoxox
will do :)
alllo?
I just counted' there are 25 different things flowering in the garden!
They're mostly small but it's starting to be lovely Spring
good morning, my friends :)
{{crossy}}, the scholar
((ruby))
look at 4"28 AND EAT YOUR LITTLE HEART OUT,LOL
whoops, sorry for caps
big heart*
I am happy your garden is flourishing, Ruby. Our greenery has come to life in the last few weeks as well. Strawberries will soon be ready, There has been an explosion of trillium's in the last week, and sometime in the next two weeks the fiddleheads will be ready for picking. The forests have also come to life once more, and there is a canopy of lush green over our heads when we hike the trails:)
Hello, Ruby :)
Hello, Crossy :-)
Howdy, zooz)
I did your new puzzle, Crossy..almost got it under an hour but just could not make it..lol
Looks like I scared everyone away...slinks out of here.
yaa for zooz:)
Sorry, zooz; I am multi-tasking. Trying to breathe, play babble, and put the kettle on. Still onlu 05:49 here and I am not quite awake yet:)
No worries, Crossy. To be honest I am in and out myself.Doing small puzzles on jigidi.
Found some nice butterfly ones :-)
:) I have had an urge of late to go out and get a real jigsaw puzzle; something nice with about 2000-4000 pieces
And you can not beat the first cup of tea of the day!
mmm...tea...
I would get a jigsaw mat to go with it, Crossy.Just roll it up and un-roll when needed.saves so much space.
What theme jigsaw would you go for?
I think so , zooz, because as soon as I said that I had a mental vision of the cats jumping up on the table and destroying it before it is finished
I enjoy nature scenes
I rather like the comedy ones where there are hundreds of cartoon type characters all doing silly things but funny.
I also like anything with an interesting lighthouse in it; perhaps a schooner coming into the harbor under a full press of sail at sunset with the bone in her teeth and hauled over to perfection:)
There seems to be a lot of puzzles for sale at car boot sales here.Can get them very cheap.
Would not surprise me if there was one or two pieces missing.that would be a bummer on a 2000 one and you find out after putting 99% of it together...lol
lol. Just asking for a missing piece that way:)
snap
I had that happen once. I ended up getting a friend who was a good painter to do up a blank I carved out of balsa wood for the missing piece
Good idea, /Crossy!
I was not going to move on in life with a 5000 piece puzzle with one piece gone;)
hahaha no I don't blame you :-)
Was a edge piece as well!
Well that makes it a bit easier to make I suppose.
I have h4/5 and h4/7 what are the stats for the last 'h' please?
HY 5/16 Marc.
thanks
Welcome.
can't find it could you please give me a clue?
Will soon be time to get my better half up. I am a early bird doomed to spend the rest of my life in a house full of night hawks;(
HY + not daughter.
thanks
LOL must admit i am ot too keen on very early mornings..as in 4am early.
In summer, I am up the second there is the merest hint of light outside which usually means anything after 5 a.m
Also know as "bladder o'clock" :)
lol
On weekends it is sad; I am up, gone for a walk to get the paper, had my shower, had some breakfast, done some dishes and laundry, and spent 3 hours on the computer before my wife and son even think of crawling out of bed. the usually stagger out aroun 11:am and are not even fully functional till one in the afternoon. By that time I am almost ready to roll up the sidewalks for the day or have a power nap . lol
sister is here.got to run take care, Crossy.
tc, zooz'
wo5/18, please?
Sorry the 2nd one
got it thanks
lol, was just going to type it out. A perfect peri, marc;)
Good morning.
Howdy, Sukee
Hi crossy.
Rain here for last 3 days:( Not the best for hiking, but my oh my how everything has come to life!
It looks like a rainy day here today, yesterday it rained a couple of times. All the leaves are out on the trees now so my view has improved.
hi all.. a little one today
Hello Aloyisius. Small but fiesty.
feisty
ooh, ok
Well, for me anyway :)
But, I am almost half way through already.
Howdy, aloy
howdy crossy (-:
can usually tell after first pass through the grid how tuff it is going to be, so I'm diving in..
Had the worst toothache yesterday, must better this morning after lots of salt water rinses. I guess I gotta take a trip to the dentist to see about it. Sigh.
Usually means a plaque build-up has gotten in under the gumline:(
Unless you have a cavity of course
Yes, it seems to be more the gum that is giving me grief. It's one of my back teeth so it's hard to floss.
I have a wisdom tooth that grew in sideways during my youth that is going to need taken care of by a dental surgeon. My dentist is not comfortable handling it locaLLY DUES TO THE CLOSENESS OF NERVES IN THE LOWER JAW NEAR THE SITE... SORRY CAPS
darn caps were stuck..lol
darn thing is totally sideways with the crown butting up tight against the side of the tooth next to it;(
Interesting, this tooth is similar, not sideways but definitely at an angle.
Okay, maybe the grid is not quite as bad as I first thought. I am down to 23 left.
I have dental coverage this year so have been a regular visitor of late:(
You rock, sukee!
Yes, I have it now thanks to odsp. Went a couple of years without coverage. But my dentist was nice and charged me the minimum when I had to go.
thought mosh was ok, as it mosh pit.. nope
I am rectifying a 15 year gap in professional dental care (crossy had a phobia of dentists)
Me to Aloy.
too :)
but found a word with the same letters
The o word?
no, m4.6
ok, don't have that :0
unit of elec. conductance I think
the opposite is the o word
Found it, ty :)
electrical engineers have a sign on their stove: o** on the range
lol
15 now, putting monkeys to work.. but first I need a refill, brb
Seems like one of our politicians had a bit of a breakdown. !st lesson of politics should be do not drink when you have to give a public speech :)
I avoid politics whenever possible because, as with ghost stories, only a very few contain any shred of truth whatsoever :)
Okay, 1st column blacked out.
At least the drunk one has some entertainment value:)
Well, down to 17 left. I can't seem to get anything longer than 5 letters.
But, it's time for me to go to the gym.
See you tomorrow.
have a good workout, sukee.. bye
fw.. found some newbies with the help of morewords.. any clues needed before I scoot?
ok, hagd everyone!
Crossy, question for you
yes, bichon?
How do you do those jigsaw puzzles. Assuming you start with a picturehen what?
How do you do those jigsaw puzzles. Assuming you start with a picture. Then what?
You sign in and just to the left of your jigidi name is a "create' tab..
I guess I have to get an account.
You go in there and import whatever picture you wish, then use the slider to determine the size of the puzzle
Yes, it is free, so may as well
Seems simple enough. Thanks
it is very easy indeed;)
This is the first time ever reaching the half way point with no help at all. But still no 6 or 7
Yaa for Bichon!
One small step for bichon one huge step for Babble
Pardon my jumping in Bichon & crossy, but do you ever do the puzzles at TheJigsawPuzzles.com?
Not I, I only have done Jindigo
lol, pcal, I have enough addictions as it is:)
I have at least a dozen puzzles on the go:)
or as Mr. Bich calls them, Time Sucks
Never to many addictions! Works much like jigidi, but i find it more interesting...just a thought. :-)
I call them time vampires
too many...
I ignore housework and the garden in favor of my addictions
jigsaw puzzles, crossword puzzles, babble, many forms of solitaire...
Well, I do have to walk the fluffs from time to time. I do lots of crossword puzzles
My beloved is hooked on a impossible difficult version of spider solitaire that drive me nuts just to look at it.
I broke down and looked at Morewords to get the st 6
The sh 6 & 7 are not English words
what's the version of spider solitaire
I used to have Sol Suite and I remember there being a Spider Solitaire
good morning and fireworks here - first time in a very long time
well done riverdance! and good morning dear friends
This isn't a very difficult grid
thanks and good morning to you too
I did have to list for my last 10
Woot to you River
all in all it was a pretty easy grid
I guess I really should be working and no excuse now...lol! Have a wonderful day everyone.
me too - bye!
Still struggling with sh6 and 7 - any kind person willing to give you an idiot's clue!
It reminds me of the Hebrew word for peace, but slightly misspelled.
alley, hello, goodbye peace in hebrew
Thx! Should be spelt with an a but blacked out the 7!
hello, fellow nashvillian! tx much for the sh6, 7!
may i have stats for the center c?
ce4/6 sue
Good morning, all. Well, this grid sucks.
you aren't going to hurt the grid's feelings at all judi
I know, ru. Just venting.
under 100 grids could care less
:D
Apparently, Babble Junior is the latest rage.
yup
I'm not a fan.
13 minutes isn't really much fun... at least doing grids
hi all
morning ms peri
I play spider solotaire. I did not know there was a difficult verision. will have to check it out
:)
solitaire even
do you arachnia up points in that game too?
Fireworks. YAWN.
*politely claps for judi*
why are you clapping politely, ruru?
--
Nothing to do now but drink more coffee.
well..i'm not going to yell and get all excited over a 78 word grid
ok
17 minutes to finish this grid. Ruru beat me by 4 minutes.
well it is taking me more than that
I do not like small grids
I didn't list either judi :D
they make me nervous :) I am always looking for complicated words when I do not need to
It was a very monkey friendly grid.
744 grids make me nervous
with 77 co words
I like the really big grids. lols of endings and beginnings
to add to words
*** shudders ***
lol
I love to finish the grids as fast as possible.. but that's just me
what a cute photo judi
you posted that because you shoot from the hippo all the time?
Thanks, Ru. That was my mother's day homage. Probably should change it now, but I'm rather fond of it.
it is really cute
they are dangerous creatures though..
Mothers or hippos?
hippos
well.. my mother is dangerous too though
Pygmy hippos are adorable. Have you ever seen one. The babies are even cuter.
no.. never heard of them either
Off I go to guzzle more coffee. See y'all tomorrow! *POOF*
