*hugs rose* Good evening, dear friend. How did it go with June? Not too cold?

4:21 am

thursday darling, thursday.... lollll

4:21 am

i am guessing you are still on your first coffe hit.

4:22 am

ugh. Ok then. And no, not even that. Didn't sleep well, am not rested, didn't feel up to walking the stairs yet so am still without coffee or breakfast.

4:22 am

i thought so. all the excitement from when you saw the surgeon.

4:23 am

it has been a bit crazy this week, with all the storms, all the driving and then the day in hospital. Things will settle eventually, grin.

4:26 am

i hope so sweetie. nothing else on the cards for you any time soon?

4:27 am

dietician today. And one of these days I have to pick up Rob and Terra again. Otherwise I'll keep things low profile, methinks.

4:28 am

sounds like a good idea and game plan.

4:29 am

I may be a lazy 'un today and settle in front of the tv with a series and my crotcheting.

4:32 am

nice. that sounds ideal

4:32 am

:D How are you and Don doing?

4:36 am

we're doing okay. staying warm as much as possible.

4:37 am

very important for your poor body to stay warm. I hope you layer up.

4:40 am

sure do. cardigan on, cardigan off, cardigan on.....

4:41 am

camisole, t-shirt, blouse, cardigan, vest...

4:43 am

exactly. i feel like the michelon man

4:44 am

*giggles* You can roll home then.

4:45 am

fireflies. Last word the to4 babblet. Shame on me.

4:45 am

poor don. he is having such fun....not. he bought himself a new laptop. and is giving me his old one.

4:45 am

WTG SPRITE!!!

4:46 am

oh nice!

4:46 am

he thought he had downloaded everything. but he has now found none of his pictures have been captured.

4:46 am

he has to work through 48,000 images to see what he wants to keep... lollll

4:46 am

takes some effort to get both machines running as wanted. Ugh and losing pictures is bad.

4:47 am

I think I am gonna get myself some coffee and a shake, and morning meds. *hugs* my darling. Enjoy your day tomorrow, and please tell June that you cannot sit outdoors if it is too cold. She can adapt too, you know...

4:47 am

he found out after he had emptied the old laptop of his profile. he is now running a recovery program, hopefully it will find them all.

4:48 am

xoxoxox sweetie. catch you tomorrow. yeah. will tell her if it is too cold for me.

4:48 am

wish Don good luck from me! I hate those jobs myself. I know how he feels.

5:10 am

Good morning all.

ty Annie

6:37 am

oh there are 2

6:38 am

good idea annie! we only have one car this summer for three of us, and tomorrow I have to let secondo have the car at 1:30, which means I will have to walk home from her work. about 3 miles, so normally not a big deal, but its going to be 94 degress tomorrow - ugh

6:55 am

.....and my record for not being able to see the as4.4 continues.....I LIVE near the damn thing, and yet miss that word all. the. time.

6:56 am

6:57 am

I loved To6

co6, please?

6:57 am

bye dear babblers

6:57 am

bye annie - stay cool!

6:58 am

Sadly, the first thing I noticed in this grid was copa and Barry Manilow has been in my head ever since. Arrrgggh.

hello babblers

7:00 am

TO, your flag and gender icons are not visible because your profile is marked as "not visible". Which means it shows in chat, but not in the rankings list.

odd. that just began.

7:02 am

You could have clicked the box by accident. Weird thing is, I don't see the "don't show profile" box in the MY ACCOUNT section any more. Maybe a question for Dr. God

the button is no longer available.

co6 co + english afternoon t** and last vowel

dr god removed it i will email him again

or english breakfast T**

thanks

hi owl :))

yvw marc

7:03 am

hey there mr p!

hi trif! :))

I am here to clue, clue and clue and chat a little :D

the grand budapest hotel :)

7:05 am

7:05 am

GM and hello all

otherwise would watch Elizabeth, (already loaded as part of my daughters curriculum for her exams)

hi car :)

7:06 am

:)

hi mr. p!

curous to know how you like that one.

7:07 am

to 6/7, pls

7:08 am

hi To, mr p

7:08 am

hi darling car!!!

hi bichon!

7:08 am

Hello Luv

to6... steal c** boots

7:09 am

working on 4 hours sleep - ugh

oh well, i guess bo big deal to lose sight of profile.

to7 an over co**... something you wear over the top of your clothing

oh trif! why so little?

7:10 am

because of hormones. ugh.

7:10 am

not to be indelicate....

ah, am getting to know that all too well hunny

so, people can be playing but no one would know?

7:10 am

Those fertility shots messing you up? ;P

7:10 am

oh hahahah miss thang

owl, what has happened? you not on the list?

if they don't chat?

7:11 am

TO? I'm not following?

7:11 am

ty mr p

there is nothing indelicate about it trif... is a biatch!

7:11 am

As my daughter used to call it "metrophase"

I am but accordint to mlly, no one else can see me in rankings. so, if i did not chat, i could pay anonymously.

7:11 am

Once again, mom is sleeping like a log. Had the blender on and everything. This is killing me.

7:11 am

they would still appear on the "whos online" list, I believe, but they don't show up in chat, no

that makes no sense owl

7:12 am

bichon, I call it "a pause to reconsider men"

i see my in rankings, but i have no flag or country

trif, hah!

7:13 am

LOL Trif

nor do you, mr p! i do not see your country.

7:13 am

Yes, when others view the RANKINGS your name is listed in black and they can't click on it to see your profile.

I do not have my country or male/female up

7:14 am

This is a case for Dr. God

I prefer to be planetary and gender neutral... but we all know I am an Aussie chick!

yes, let dr. God know... it sounds strange

7:15 am

gm, everyone! MRP!!! and TO...you both are missing your handbag and flags. and molly is missing her flag.

hi river

7:24 am

7:24 am

hi crossy

7:25 am

ty dawg

7:25 am

lol crossy

7:25 am

Howdy, LBD:)

7:25 am

And, not to be callous, but I'm going to be late for work...again.

quick question: has anyone bought any sunproof clothing? looking at long sleeve swim/sun tops and wondering if they are as cool and breathable as advertised.

ca7 a briefca** and "I a** all my dinner"

yes owl, very good as long as you get quality ones, usually cost more

yes, ty, i saw some recommended by melanoma foundation, they are about 42 USD now on sale.

can I ask what you will use it for owl?

festival time is coming i got too much sun on arms at festival this weekend, along with a talk by a skin cancer patient

i will use it foe festivals and for lawn and garden work as well as beach

7:28 am

Whenever i show my belly scars, people run for the sunscreen:)

well yes, if you are using it to cover up, no exercise... gardening is good and swimming

ca7, please?

i have bever sunburned well. the arms take the brunt

just clued it marc

7:30 am

Marc - MrP just clued that a couple minutes ago

well, at festivals one is walking around a lot, that is exercise.

got it thanks for all the clues have to go now

7:30 am

The sad thing is that you never really top having melanoma. Every once in a while you find another "aggressive" mole and have to get it cut out:(

7:30 am

stop*

too right crossy... must be so hard to keep up

see ya marc

7:31 am

I have a good friend that is battling melanoma.....very sad!

do you have it then, crosshair?

7:31 am

I have a friend who has it on her face. i count my blessings.

7:31 am

yes, T.O I do

7:32 am

But it was caught early at the time

7:33 am

Did he have Moh's surgery

7:33 am

I get the local surgeon on staff to freeze the area of concern and he freezes it and cuts it out and pops a stitch or 2 in

7:33 am

Has been no new one for a long while now

7:34 am

thats good crossy

7:34 am

It is, and as a guy a few train tracks on my keg of a belly do not bother me overmuch:)

i thought it was a much bigger deal. my friend has the other kind and he has many scars, one very deep

7:34 am

Moh's is used for melanoma. It slices thin layers and they are examined under a microscope to see if all the tumor is removed. Takes a highly trained dermatologist

7:35 am

I guess it depends on the individual and how fast the problem area is adressed

so do they make you avoid certain foods and peel all fruits and vegetables? that is what they do here to cancer prone individuals.

7:35 am

With my history, I examine my moles on a regular basis

7:36 am

No, I eat what i wish.

7:36 am

As I say, mine present as agressive moles

7:37 am

flat, irregular with the center a lighter shade that the outer edges and over 3 cm

7:37 am

than*

I nearly strangled my dad when I was 16... he cut his own mole out of his tummy area with a knife... typical farmer

7:38 am

3mm or some such.. I just get the dr to go over me once a month or so. Thankfully they have become less common for me over time

7:38 am

ouch !

oh, so they get rid of the moles before they can turn.

7:38 am

yes.

the thing he cut out came with roots and all

7:39 am

Stay on top of them .

my goodness!

7:39 am

eww.. mrp..

yes owl, if you are vigilant, you can get them before they get you

I know, right? crossy?

7:40 am

Made me remember the last one I had removed

7:40 am

yes, get then while they are shallow

sorry crossy

7:40 am

lol, it is no big deal at this late date, MRP:)

7:41 am

top and bottom rows grayed - stuck with 28 left - time to get to work. Have a great day everyone

see ya river :)

7:41 am

My last oncology appt last month they said they no longer need to see me any more:)

7:41 am

tc river:)

7:41 am

thats good news crossy - bye all

7:41 am

I will, of course, continue self-examination.

7:42 am

Anyways, the gist of it all is WEAR SUNSCREEN!

7:43 am

81 left for me!

That reminds me I have lots of spare hard drive form old, long gone computers. need to get a external hard drive enclosure soon, as the on-board hdd in this old girl I am using is only 75 gig:(

7:50 am

from*

7:50 am

has anyone upgraded to windows 10 yet?

7:50 am

nope. i leat the early adopters work out the bugs first

7:50 am

let

7:51 am

besides, I am in no hurry. I use win 7 pro and it does all that i need it to do.

7:51 am

No but I'm going to first chance I get. I can't wait to get rid of the damn charms bar. I think you have to have Windows 8 to upgrade to 10.

7:51 am

you can upgrade for free with win 7 or 8.1

7:52 am

I have windows 8.1, and yup I hate it! just wondering if the upgrade was a pain to upload.

7:53 am

I love my win 7. The school uses 8.1 and I hate it.

7:55 am

LBD, I will let you know how it goes when I upgrade. My only trepidation is having to figure out where they moved everything in Word. It's like when they rearrange the grocery store, I can't find anything.

7:56 am

I use Word 2007 and it does all that I need it to do:) it is clean and simple:)

7:56 am

I hear you, Molly. I hate it when things get put into places that make no sense at all.

7:57 am

I have office 2010. easy to use, a few extra bells and whistles that I ignore.

7:57 am

Last time I upgraded Excel, it took me forever to figure out simple things, like "FILL DOWN"

7:58 am

I try to keep my Office Suite current. I exchange so many documents with other people and companies that it helps if my system is compatible with theirs.

8:02 am

Fortunately the college doesn't change their programs that often that I have to upgrade my stuff. I usually just play around with what they have and figure out how things have changed and go from there.

grr is all tech support based on reboot and clearing cache and cookies???

8:10 am

A lot of those tech support people work from a script and telling you to reboot and clear are two of the first things on their script.

8:12 am

You always start with the easiest fixes first

wants me to clear cache and cookies just for their mail app which is intermittent.

8:13 am

I try to get those basic "fixes" done before calling support. THen I can tell them I did this and that, and it still doesn't work.

that has effects i do not want if it is not the definite cause

8:15 am

Fixing any software bugs in a computer boils down to simply a process of elimination in many cases

8:16 am

Diagnosing often just gets you inside the ball-park

8:55 am

hi harry :)

8:55 am

morning all, could someone clue me the 2 sa 6's please

8:55 am

hi kate

8:55 am

There is nothing so fine as sitting in a canoe or a kayak on a small lake as dawn breaks. You can see the first tentative rays of sunlight burning off the fog that lays on the water like a fluffy blanket, it is so quiet that you can hear the droplets of water coming off our paddle and rejoining the lake that holds you up. Then you hear the first, haunting cries of a loon--then, and only then, can the begin.

8:59 am

no can do, kate - off the stuff for the summer

9:00 am

i am trying to find my last le 4/4.... I swear i have tried every foolish combo - nothing :(

9:00 am

but I do have a fabulous beverage to hand - I bought one of those glass decanter things with the spigot at the bottom. Filled it to the top with water, ice, lemon slices, and clementine slices, let it steep over night....ahhhhhhh

9:00 am

juice then... give your eyes and brain 3 minutes :)

9:01 am

my L is blacked out - I have 2 le4/4 - pl of the hawaiian garland

9:01 am

le4 hawaiin garland

That sounds nice Trif, but it would not do the trick first thing in the morning.

9:01 am

le4 one letter short of a rental agreement

9:02 am

10:17 am

good morning all :-)

10:18 am

Hello all, just checking in. Was reading back in the chat, some late comments: YAY, Crossy, on your great health news! :) MollyL, I had all my Excel and Word landing pages customized with my shortcuts, I screenshotted them before any updates so i could set up the newest more quickly. TO - hope the new Mac is just what you are looking for! And for everyone - I have all blank tiles and blank stats. Now I can start! :)

10:21 am

my two cents. Brady is a cheater.. His team are cheaters, his coach is a cheater which is sad that the NFL wouldn't prevent it.

10:22 am

like trif's lemonade recipe -- would be even better spiced up with a little raspberry vodka and limoncello!

10:23 am

I agree Doren..

10:23 am

(thinks Nan thinks vodka will spice up anything) :D

10:24 am

it doesn't?

10:24 am

HA!!!!! good one

10:41 am

It sometimes makes things more tolerable though

10:44 am

te 6/27 please?

10:44 am

a three legged tea stand

10:45 am

have no idea rur

10:46 am

10:51 am

wtg nan

10:51 am

< ---coffee uncle

10:52 am

<-------- liquor employee

10:52 am

understandable -- when we come to PD I always bring a teapot along -- there is never one to be found in any of the houses we rent.

10:54 am

Thinking of trying somewhere around San Diego for a change this year --- any golf course locations where we might find short term rentals there?

10:55 am

Most people in the US are plebeians and heat tea water in a cup in the microwave. And although many consider me a plebeian, I do have a tea kettle and a tea pot.

10:55 am

most of the golf courses are in the Rancho Santa Fe area

10:56 am

ty - will look it up

10:56 am

so you could stay in La Jolla which is really lovely

10:56 am

gorgeous there and good restaurants too

10:57 am

will go on line and have a look - ty ruru

10:57 am

I have a little tea pot.. but it is short and stout

10:58 am

it's likely going to be a really wet winter down here in California Nan

10:58 am

although we are supposed to have a really short and mild winter this year.

10:58 am

it's an el Nino year .. probably a lot of rain

10:58 am

Great - hope you get it, ruru - you certainly could use the moisture.

10:59 am

no kidding.. it is really dry down here

10:59 am

drier than british wit

10:59 am

same here -- forest fires burning all over the province

11:00 am

the fire closest to us is out and the one that is 10 miles away is contained, so hoping for no more electrical storms and no more careless smokers

11:03 am

off to the chores -- hagd everyone

11:04 am

bye nan

11:43 am

... and done ... with 25% from the list ... ... may I offer a clue for anyone? ... ...

11:45 am

... ah well then ... luck and a sunny afternoon to everyone ... ... except those who could use a good rain ... ... 'til tomorrow ...

Hey Ruby - can you give me a slightly bigger steer on the British colonial word? I feel like I should see it but I don't...

1:07 pm

Same as the pouring spout vessel but with dif last letter.

1:09 pm

Ends in sometimes vowel.

Interesting word!!

Are any of the 7s or 8s compound words?

1:20 pm

TO 7/36 is.

Well, it's not toegoat. But it should be.

1:22 pm

go left not right.

Also, why not toycase - surely that should be a word - a bit of luggage just for carrying playthings

1:22 pm

hehe!

1:23 pm

¯\(°_o)/¯ I don't know why.

1:25 pm

Would you like a clue?

Yes please!

1:26 pm

Not bottom + garment worn outside to keep you dry/warm.

1:29 pm

SE

1:29 pm

OOOPS. Sorry

1:30 pm

Hello, Gail :-)

Thank you!!

oc 4,5

1:58 pm

too late again....sigh

1:58 pm

Ty for the effort, hego. :)

1:59 pm

yw :)

Anything I should know about the 8s....?

2:37 pm

They are eight letters long

Hardy har!!

;)

2:39 pm

Don't panic. I have arrived.

Oh, thank goodness. I was despairing ;)

May I have the stats for the 8s please?

2:40 pm

Frustrated. Went to 3 different stores. None of them carry 6 feet dryer hoses. Only 4 feet.

2:40 pm

ac8/45 but thats the only word I have

Now that's a first world problem, Cos. I miss my tumble dryer. And washing machine.

2:40 pm

also an AC 8/50

2:41 pm

WalMart.com says the store has it in stock so I go. Nothing. I ask the guy. "Oh we dont sell 4 feet anymore" -- ok update your website then.

Thanks - have the 45 now - looking for the 50 ;)

Have the 50, looking for the 45 :)

Gottem both now. Thanks!

2:43 pm

Cos, you have to go to a home improvement store, like Loews or Home Depot.

2:44 pm

I went to both Molly after Walmart. Same stories.

2:44 pm

"You have to order that on-line" all 3 of them.

2:44 pm

Who did you buy your dryer from? They should have provided the hose. Did you not have one with your previous dryer?

2:45 pm

I'll just go to the Home Depot in the rich part of town.

Thanks for the 8s

2:46 pm

Try doing a Google search on "dryer vent cleaning". The people that clean out your dryer hoses usually have them in stock.

2:46 pm

MIL gave us her old dryer..

2:46 pm

oooh good idea Molly! there is one close by.. thanks!

2:49 pm

qu5 is not accepted on a few word game apps I play.

2:52 pm

It's picky picky and whatever dictionary or word list the word game adheres to. That makes it confusing if you play more than one. Which is why I stick to this one, as odd as the word list is.

2:59 pm

time to go trim some hedges. im excited to bust out my brand-new hedge-trimmer! my kinda power-tool. :D

3:08 pm

Reading back on the dryer hose problem; you could also buy a pair of 4 footers,cut 2 feet off of one, and splice it all together to get the desired 6 foot hose

3:08 pm

Dryer hose splices very easily

3:10 pm

Got that Cos? Get out your handy man tools. : D

3:10 pm

And duct tape:)

3:12 pm

McGyver to the rescue!

3:12 pm

Or I can pay 4.00 online and have it shipped :D

3:12 pm

Either or

3:14 pm

but thanks for the idea. ill run it by ryan.

3:14 pm

No problemo:)

3:16 pm

Just back- cut the splice piece on 4 places to a depth of abot 5 inches on each side- easy peasy

3:17 pm

Then Red Green it to death:)

3:19 pm

lol yeah i might just play it safe.... i dont do no manual labor :P

3:19 pm

:)

3:22 pm

If I Hire someone to do it Im a job creator right? :P

does your law allow for flexible dryer hose? ours does not.

3:39 pm

Ugh! Anybody here ever been diagnosed with shingles? I'm just back from the docs & that's what I have! Ugh again!

3:42 pm

I have had shingles. but a very mild case of it

3:43 pm

Hi Peri-toes. It's a nasty condition!

3:44 pm

are you in a lot of pain, Soodle?

3:45 pm

need to give myself another pedicure before the weekend. going to visit friends who have a pool

3:46 pm

Cos, did you not get out your handy man tools? Shame on you. : P

3:48 pm

It's very uncomfortable, Peri. But its around my mouth, so extrememy unsightly, which causes me more anxiety. (Still a vain old thing!!)! Lol.

3:48 pm

:( that does not sound good, Soodle

3:48 pm

Picturing Cos in his overalls..... A la Bruce Springstein, back in the day

3:49 pm

it is okay to care about your looks, that is not vain

3:49 pm

help with ca7 pls

3:49 pm

So what color are the Peri-toes going for the weekend?

3:50 pm

either endless blue which is almost a royal blue or bikini so teeny which is a light periwinkle

3:51 pm

I might even do my fingernails in a very light pink: hi maintenance. who thinks up these names?

3:51 pm

On the name alone, Peri, I woukd opt for Bikini So Teeny. But that's just me! ;-)

3:52 pm

:) I will let you know what I decides. the bikini one is pretty but may be too light for toes

3:52 pm

still need help with the ca7 pls

3:53 pm

I look forward to it Peri. Have you got ca.... What you pack going on holiday & pt of to eat?

3:54 pm

I do know, Soodle, thank you.

3:54 pm

Yay!!!

3:54 pm

now, even

3:54 pm

goat

3:54 pm

ooops

3:55 pm

I hear pedicurists are in the PB these days....

3:56 pm

are there cabana boys and G&T? if not I am not going

3:57 pm

Peri! The Pedicurists ARE cabana Boys, serving G & T's. Sheesh!

3:57 pm

ok then

3:58 pm

I'm off to bed to nurse my shingles. (What a fun sounding name for a horrible virus.). G'night all.

3:59 pm

nite soodle

4:02 pm

soodle .. just read back in the chat .. I have had shingles and I hate to tell you it is very painful. Please do not let anyone close to you ... it is very contageous.

4:07 pm

it stems from when you had chicken pox as a child ... when it raises its ugly head111

4:09 pm

OOH sorry Soodle has gone ... hope she does not suffer.

Can anyone give me a gentle steer on the co6/24 please?

Never mind - monkeyed it

4:16 pm

sorry matty ... I was trying to give a clue but you beat me to it!!

4:17 pm

ooh .. phone ..

4:21 pm

Oh, sets a vigil for the suffering.

4:24 pm

Molly. Have I upset you in some way?

float like a butterfly...

4:33 pm

<---No upset in the least

4:33 pm

Not upset

May I please have help with my last two words as it's time for sleep? I need to6/24 and the first pa5/12?

4:39 pm

pa 5 12 add a vowel to the previous word

4:39 pm

Not sure why setting a vigil for the suffering would seem as if I was upset *Lights a candle*

4:39 pm

Sorry Matty. No help here, I don't have them. And, Mo. The vitriol is aimed at me. You were caught in the crossfire. Not your fault.

I suspect, Molly, that mo missed the shingles conversation?

That's the P sorted. Now for the pesky to6 - anyone? Please? Then I can go lights out and put me out of your misery ;)

Found it - good night all (FW)

4:44 pm

a hat that might go on a foot digit

4:45 pm

Well I was just trying to be nice. Didn't get the "upset" comment.

4:46 pm

Soodle, so sorry to hear you have shingles. nasty thing. Very painful. Get well soon, me dear. Take it easy and don't kiss any strangers.

4:48 pm

Thanks Jaxx. My fuse is short at the moment, between one thing and another. Faectious comments tend ro rile me.

4:50 pm

No vitriol intended. How does making a nice comment about suffering people result in vitriol?

4:50 pm

You are not the usual soodle as you aren't well. Try not to transfer the virus to your eyes as it can get even more painful. Damn Herpes virus causes nothing but misery.

4:55 pm

Molly, one of the hardest thing to pick up on when you e-mail someone is the nuance. it is too easy to be misunderstood especially if two lines of conversation get crossed . You did the same to me yesterday.

4:56 pm

utes

4:57 pm

Okay folks, all I did was make a nice comment about setting a vigil for the suffering. There are several here in Babble chat. If that gets misconstrued, so be it. I didn't email anyone, I just tried to make a positive comment here about the people with problems.

4:57 pm

I always forget to move the cursor back.

5:17 pm

hello all...

5:22 pm

Hi Pen

5:24 pm

hi molly...

5:38 pm

I am still plinking away at this pesky grid:)

plink. as in the sound a piano key makes.

5:44 pm

More like plink as in using a teeny-tiny rock hammer to dig a mine shaft:)

ah, fw! happy babbing!

i think a rock hammer would ding.

5:45 pm

Might even ping

5:46 pm

These and hundreds of other thoughts are what keep me up at nights:)

of course, if you say it pings, it pings. no doubt about it. bye all!

6:00 pm

ok...

6:09 pm

strange undercurrents in the ole chog today:)

6:14 pm

Our Aussie friend are getting up about now, so all will be set to rights:)

7:03 pm

Hi all :)

7:07 pm

hi all

7:09 pm

*strips and jumps in pool to cool off*

7:10 pm

cabana boys are welcome to bring a margarita. . . sa** on the rim please

7:10 pm

For a change, it'd be good if you sent some warmth here ;)

7:11 pm

I would gladly ship it your way lizlin!

7:11 pm

It'll get here soon enough - the days actually aren't cold (except for the wind) but we're feeling it at night.

7:12 pm

it isn't so hot but the humidity is oppressive with the heat we have

7:12 pm

:)

7:13 pm

Humidity is always the problem - it can get humid here but it's only intolerable for a short time. Thank goodness for a/c and a sea breeze.

7:13 pm

ah well i have no a/c (by choice) but most of my rooms have ceiling fans. . . unfortunately the kitchen is not one of them

7:14 pm

Stuck on my last word and I'm sure it's obvious!

7:14 pm

does the Y get used in any way?

7:14 pm

We use our fans much more than the a/c - might use that to cool down the bedroom before going to sleep.

7:14 pm

what does it start with lizlin . . . i could help you look

7:14 pm

Yes, in a few words

7:15 pm

okay . . . good to konw

7:15 pm

At least 4 words.

7:15 pm

It's the 2nd co 5/12

7:15 pm

i am so out of practice any more because i work such long hours doing boring work

7:15 pm

ah. . . of course i see a co4 fish

7:16 pm

I'm so happy that I took early retirement - and I know how lucky I am too!

7:16 pm

yeah self employment and being a single mother didn't make that much of a possibility for me. . . but i don't mind working i just mind doing boring work to pay the bills. . .

7:17 pm

Found it! Fireworks.

7:17 pm

whooo hoooo lizlin!!!!!!

7:17 pm

Thanks.

7:18 pm

Understand what you mean about boring work - that's the worst. If you enjoy what you're doing it makes work much easier.

7:18 pm

Any clues before I go?

7:18 pm

these tiny grids make for an empty chog. . . but it seems emptyish most of the time i drop around these days. . . .

7:19 pm

I guess it depends on the time. It does seem more unpredictable than it used to be.

7:19 pm

yeah . . . i could work 90 hours weeks when i am passionate about it like when i was traveling all the time talking about peace. . . . .

7:20 pm

then too i could drop in here and always find a friend. . . so the la** nights didn't seem so bad. . .

7:20 pm

I loved teaching - the in front of the class stuff - but the rest of it seemed to become more and more massive and that wasn't enjoyable.

7:20 pm

my aunt taught for 52 years and she always complained about that!! haha

7:20 pm

There are usually quite a few people around at flip time, but I guess that's pretty late.

7:20 pm

we called my mother a piker because she only taught about 35 years

7:21 pm

I think all teachers except the young, who know nothing different, complain about that.

7:21 pm

I taught 30 years in London - enough!

7:21 pm

that is 1 am here. . .when i had the other job it wasn't so bad but these days i usually hit the hay around 10

7:22 pm

OK - well, unless you need some clues, I need to get the day going.

7:22 pm

no don't let me stop you . . . i'm just dabbling until my mousaka is baked. . .

7:22 pm

have a great day!

7:22 pm

Yummy! Enjoy and have a good evening. Nice to have caught up with you again.

8:04 pm

congratulations mixi!!!

8:04 pm

yw cos.... did you get a late start today?

8:04 pm

usually you're chatting and cluing by now...

8:05 pm

yeah.. skipped flip due to the size then spent the day trying to find a dryer hose! :)

8:07 pm

have you tried online.... or can you get 2 4 footers and tape them together? (not duct tape - the real duct tape - shiny silver like metal...) Is it gas or electric dryer?

8:08 pm

electric.. i could get it online its only 4 bucks but i kinda need to do laundry like.. yesterday

8:09 pm

then tape 2 togther..it'll do for now

8:09 pm

they tried taping but it didnt work.. one of renters is a handyman and he says nothing he can do .. needs a new one?? ill try to duct tape it later

8:10 pm

yeah a 2 4 foot would work. why wouldnt it..

8:10 pm

you don't have an old one?

8:10 pm

the tape used on actual ducts will take a much higher heat and stay stuck....

8:10 pm

heating ducts, that is

8:11 pm

I get paranoid about doing stuff like that. I get the whatifs. what if this will cause a fire and I die? lol

8:13 pm

as long as you have a proper dryer hose, the taping is fine for a quick job until you get a new one...if using an old hose make sure it's clean inside... lint can build up and that can cause fires - not the joining of two.

8:13 pm

yeah that makes sense . frustrating when everything falls apart at once.

8:15 pm

I understand.. and you're under pressure for it to be done yesterday... if you have proper duct tape, the fix will last as long as you want it to... screw one end into the other for some overlap and tape your little heart out :)

8:16 pm

ok ill give it a shot. if not just get 2 4 foot ones tomorrow

8:17 pm

if it works you can get the one piece one online... no need to pay for fast shipping :D

8:18 pm

thats true.

8:18 pm

yeah ill do that thanks!

8:18 pm

it will work cos - I have done it before... like I said, just make sure to clean out any lint hanging around in the hose

8:19 pm

k now I have a chore for ryan tonight.

8:20 pm

delegate the snot out of that little job cos!

8:21 pm

lol.. he has a lot of making up to do sooo.. :P

8:35 pm

I think we lost mkg with all the dryer hose chat ;)

8:35 pm

Oh I did. But you never know with FB

lol... really??? I hadn't noticed ;)

8:38 pm

I also run two fb pages lol .. one of them has over 10,000 likes.yes im one of these sad people :)

8:38 pm

I have lots of politicallylike-minded friends who do the same.... yell your head off it can't hurt; it may help!

8:39 pm

nothing sad about that... if you didn't write good stuff, you wouldn't have an audience like that...

8:41 pm

Whats kinda cool to me anyway is its a Christmas page and its still going strong. I dont post as much during the off months but enough to show up on feeds and attract people :D
