Grrr! I looked for that backslash n - didn't notice it!

2:26 am

You need to come here - heatwave.

2:26 am

two of them in the first link, Liz, grin. Babble chog puts them in.

2:27 am

Still having trouble with the PC but I'm getting used to the laptop

2:27 am

I know but because it was linked to other letters, I missed it.

2:27 am

yeah it is very cold here as well. Quite sudden. Brrrrr.

2:27 am

I see it in both links now.

2:27 am

At least I can play a little and see you guys!

2:27 am

A pleasant 30 C today - bit smug of me! Sorry.

2:27 am

brb, potty break

2:28 am

Did you sort out the language problems, Ruby?

2:32 am

Language is sorted, bputerut there are still probs with both com

2:33 am

Hope you get it sorted soon. How are you doing and how's Burt doing?

2:33 am

both computers. My friend is coming later and maybe she can help

2:34 am

Hope so.

2:35 am

Isaw B on Friday and he is in a sorry state but still knows me and he continues to eat well but he falls a lot

2:36 am

Good about knowing you and eating; not so good about the falling. Are you happy with the care in the home?

2:37 am

I'm OK, mostly controlling the pain, so can't complain

2:37 am

It all takes so long. Controlling the pain is very important though and I'm happy that it's mostly OK.

2:37 am

The home is clean and fancy, but more imperssonal than the other one and it's much closer

2:38 am

That's mostly good then. It's especially good that it's closer - so much easier for you.

2:39 am

My only problem is morphine's side effects, but that's nothing nez

2:40 am

sorry about that. Back now.

2:40 am

and I can't see, to gain any weight, so I look skeletal and ancient

2:40 am

I guess it's a matter of weighing up the positives against the negatives. No pain is a very huge positive.

2:40 am

WB Sprite.

2:41 am

keeping the pain bearable is a good thing indeed

2:42 am

wbj sprite.. Boy, do I miss this!

2:42 am

Just noticed I still have a blank a! Only 39 left and still a blank tile :(

2:42 am

lol, happens to me often, Liz

2:42 am

Will probably list soon - not seeing many more words.

2:43 am

made it to 95 in.

2:43 am

Although it's cold, this has beeen the sunniest Nov I can remember

2:43 am

Almost time for dinner here, so you'll finish before me.

2:43 am

Sunny weather makes the cold much more bearable.

2:43 am

not here! Rain, storm, more rain, more storm, all november. this is one of the first sunny days.

2:44 am

I haven't started the grid yet, still trying to get warm and re-connect with yoou folks

2:44 am

It's making a small effort to rain here right now - we really could do with the rain.

2:44 am

It's good to catch up with you Ruby.

2:44 am

BTW I love the various photos you've been sending.

2:46 am

When the sky is clear, it gets pmuch colder at night but the sun wams up the house in the afternoon and the sunshne makes me happier

2:47 am

Me too. I love waking up to blue skies. Feels totally different if the sky's grey in the morning.

2:47 am

now THE GANG IS ALL HERE. {{HUGS}} MY DARLINGS. XOXOXOXOXOX

2:47 am

yes I am right with you. I don't care how cold it is, as long as the sky is clear and the sun is out. I even like the crisp cold. It is bracing.

2:47 am

I've also been binge-watching Orqnge is the neze black on the nez TV

2:47 am

ay, Rosie is here

2:47 am

I've never seen it.

2:47 am

hehehe our rose is getting all excited :) *hugs rose* Hello dear friend, how was your day?

2:47 am

Hi and hugs, Rose.

2:48 am

binge-watching is so relaxing

2:48 am

Yay, that is LOL

2:48 am

yay me. got all the clean wash sorted, folded, some ironed and put away...just in time for the next wash day...lolll

2:48 am

good girl rose!

2:49 am

2:49 am

Good for you, Rose.

2:49 am

2:50 am

lizgirl....i am actually starting to feel like me again. it's been such a long haul

2:50 am

I am fine, darling. Will do a bit of laundry today and that is it.

2:50 am

That's soooooo good to hear, Rose. Perhaps you'll make it up here before too long. I doooooo hope so.

2:50 am

good news, rose. About time too!

2:51 am

good for you sprite. never let it be said, you didn't do the least you could do...lollll *ducks behind Don*

2:51 am

*giggles*

2:52 am

That was a quick delivery1 I think ze've all had a difficult year (except for Lucky Liz, who can be heqlthy fçr all of us!)

2:52 am

oh, btw, you know one of my DILs is chinese/timorese? and she is very fussy about her chinese food?

2:52 am

Happy to take on that role, Ruby.

2:52 am

Rosie, if you don't enjoy the bks, Don will

2:52 am

Though I'd rather share it with all of you.

2:53 am

as long as she doesn't fall and hurt herself!

2:53 am

well, we took son and DIL to our favourite restaurant, and today Don sprung her with a bunch of food , taking it home , from our restaurant.

2:53 am

You do share in a lovely, generous way

2:53 am

I'll try not to do that again.

2:53 am

And she loved it ....?

2:53 am

I agree with ruby, you do share, Liz.

2:54 am

did she like it, rose?

2:54 am

LOL!

2:54 am

yes, she did. i am so pleased as this place was on my suggestion.

2:54 am

awesome :)

2:54 am

Awesome :)

2:54 am

Great minds.

2:54 am

or what Liz said

2:54 am

:D

2:54 am

Except you missed the capital letter ;)

2:55 am

true, dat

2:56 am

I am way behnd on the babble news, playing cqtchup, trying to reqd between the ines

2:56 am

Meant to tell you, Sprite. My friend's daughter has got an internship at PsyQ

2:56 am

catchup*

2:57 am

nothing big going on here, ruby. I'll catch you up on my news by email, all small stuff.

2:57 am

oh wow, Liz, wtg!

2:57 am

All news is better than no nezs!

2:58 am

The only thing you missed with me, is Sprite's reference, that I slipped in the kitchen and bruised my ribs. Painful for quite a while but pretty much OK now.

2:59 am

found the other 8 at last, Liz. Do you want stats?

3:00 am

I'll take any help :)

3:00 am

Rib pain is very nasty; I'm glad it's better*

3:00 am

and i am having infusions of magnesium every fortnight...no ketamine...and i am zapping the nerve in my knee with a TENS machine. twice/day 2 hours at a time. not allowed to walk around while i am using it.

3:00 am

se8/55, also a compound

3:00 am

I couldn't believe how long it took to feel better.

3:01 am

Does it go from what you sit on?

3:01 am

bruised ribs take forever to heal. A really rotten injury.

3:01 am

no it starts with ocean

3:01 am

OK - looking.

3:01 am

Thanks. Just seen it.

3:02 am

20 some yeqrs ago, I fell and broke ' ribs and when the paun hit; I thought I was dying

3:02 am

I think hubby was more concerned about all the broken glass around me! After he'd checked I was OK, of course.

3:02 am

the problem with b roken ribs is you can't take a deep breath.

3:02 am

He kept telling me not to move and I couldn't think why.

3:02 am

a couple of years back, I was coughing for so long and so hard, I broke a rib. It was hell, especially combined with coughing.

3:03 am

Or laugh but worst was sneezing.

3:03 am

I hope he was concerned you'd cut yourself, Liz

3:04 am

That was his concern but I sort of forgot about the glass bottle I'd been carrying and had realised that I could move OK, so wasn't aware of the glass.

3:04 am

good thing your love was there to remind you, Liz

3:04 am

It certainly was.

3:05 am

And to pick me up - I think I was a bit shocked.

3:06 am

hi all, is the po8 a compound?

3:06 am

no doubt. A fall like that is literally a shock to the system

3:06 am

Yes, Peri

3:06 am

yes it is, peri, and hi

3:06 am

How's your new home, Peri? Have you settled in?

3:07 am

yes I have settled in and I am very happy here

3:07 am

good to hear

3:07 am

try falling at your work place and have it announced over the PA and an emergency team were called for. * very red face *

3:07 am

I do not see the po8 and I do not have either 7

3:07 am

Not a nice experience, Rose.

3:07 am

po 8 defines where you live.

3:07 am

the po8 is handy when sending letters, peri

3:07 am

That's good that you're happy in your new home.

And the PO7 is someone who is studying past a PhD

3:08 am

found the po8 ty.

3:08 am

Thanks, Matty.

3:08 am

ty for po7

3:08 am

the other 7 is fe7, plural kind of hat

3:09 am

Time for dinner here. Enjoy your evening, Rose and and the rest of you, enjoy your days. Hugs to all who'd like them :)

3:09 am

ty sprite

What are the stats for the other 8? (good morning all)

3:09 am

enjoy your dinner and evening, Liz. *hugs* to you both

3:10 am

sun is shing and I'm still shivering

3:10 am

rhyming for toodle oo goodbye to you

3:11 am

not enough insulation, ruby. You need layers of clothing... and movement.

3:11 am

lol must be an aussie thing, rose ;)

3:11 am

from a childhood program over here.

3:12 am

I like it, rose!

Is the SE8 a 'real' word?

3:12 am

yeah, i don't think you had the Peters Icecream clowns over there... loll

3:12 am

yes matty, a real word

3:12 am

yes, Matty. another word for a sailor

3:12 am

layers and layers -- I look like the michelin man -- pneu pneu

3:12 am

the se8 is a compound, starts with ocean

Got it - thanks! Thats the 7s and 8s gone. Still missing two of the A tiles though

Must get in the shower soon - my car is (hopefully) getting fixed today

3:13 am

That's one of the A tiles I'm missing...

3:15 am

Thanks!

3:15 am

3:15 am

3:15 am

May I have the stats for the two As in the first column?

3:17 am

o

7:48 am

god almighty....im in the library with a bunch of students who did not do their weekend homework, and have to do it now. I am two seconds away from jumping out the damn window. They aren't even TRYING - "Is Atticus Finch a girl?" "What's the Radley Place?" "I can't find where they tell us who 'Maycomb" is!"

7:48 am

READ THE BOOK

7:48 am

and hello friends!

OMG that's crazy trif!

7:49 am

its mostly irritating. Do they honestly think I can't figure out that they didn't read it?

I'd want to shout out answers even in the midst of my frustration

7:50 am

pretty much

7:51 am

I know that it's not the easiest text in the world, but seriously?

7:52 am

just an idea to address where theyhow about having them write down or discuss what would motivate them to do their homework.

7:52 am

oops

7:52 am

who is maycomb?

7:53 am

just thinking to engage them at their point of resistance and get them opening up about what's up in their world where they have no interest in learning what's in front of them.

7:54 am

oooh, the teacher did more than that babs! Wily gal had them write on a piece of paper their excuse for not doing it, then she scanned each page and sent it to the parents.

7:54 am

imagining for a second how eager children who have no opportunity for education would love to change places with them

7:55 am

hmm...not their excuses, but their deeper lack of motivation??

7:55 am

one of the kids just whined "this book is so....WORDY! why does it have to use so many WORDS!" to which I replied "well, it's not much of a book with OUT words is it?"

7:57 am

sounds like a kid who might get motivated to write their own book so they can demonstrate how to use fewer words :-) Have them take a page of the book and ask them to thoughtfully eliminate the superfluous words

se8, please?

7:59 am

I have one se8 - one who voyages across the ocean

7:59 am

thanks, trif

thanks

8:00 am

no problem.

8:01 am

"Wait, this book wasn't written by Edgar Allen Poe?" KILL ME NOW

8:03 am

Hey Trif. The other day you were raving about a meal. Local restaurant?

8:04 am

YES!!! RUN do not walk! Mother Anna's, in the plaza on Rte. 53, before you get to the feed store. I think it used to be Café Eleganza or something?

8:05 am

You might have to wait a bit, but it is totally worth it.

8:05 am

TYVM

8:06 am

It used to be in the North End, but they relocated to the south shore, just like Siam Cuisine did...WIN

8:07 am

make sure to come back and tell me how it was!

8:08 am

Definitely

I believe Mother Anna's is still on Hanover Street in the North End. Heard good things about the Hanover/Pembroke line location although I haven't been there myself. Must like the name Hanover!!!

8:18 am

Do you recall Ida's in the north end?

Hi Grant...I do not. we often frequented Felicia's... ever go there?

8:24 am

Recognize the name, but never tried it. Lived on Beacon Hill in the late 1960's, so the north end was an easy walk.

I am glad you and Trif mentioned the So. Shore Mother Anna's restaurant...it'll be my next choice. back to the grid.

8:59 am

never heard of that word before or used that word ever.

9:01 am

I believe it's a slang word

9:02 am

yes...I looked it up.

9:20 am

Well, it's official. I just got back from my initial chiropractic exam and the doc confirmed my back twists and turns every which way but the ways it's supposed to.

sorry to hear that, red. can he fix it?

9:21 am

They're going to look over X-Rays and history in depth this afternoon and I go back tomorrow to hear the full extent and see what treatment might be.

9:22 am

Should be able to fix, but I bet it'll take a lot of work.

9:23 am

ah redshoes, fully understand, I have a wow in my spine where it shouldn't wow out and a wow that goes sideways - nothing has been done to correct, various things to help, ie brace, mine may have been realized too late in life

9:24 am

current doc suggests I may have been born this way

9:25 am

that, of course, was 83 years ago!!

9:25 am

I've known my back was messed up for a while, but treatment can get expensive. Necks are supposed to curve, but he said my neck is worse than straight...it's curving in the wrong direction now.

9:25 am

Oh man, flosey!

9:25 am

Red, I think you'd be better off going to a D.O. A DO is a medical doctor with additional training in manipulation. You get the best of both worlds that way including prescriptions if you need them. Unfortunately, people who go to chiropractors regularly often end up with terrible arthritis that lasts the rest of their lives.

9:25 am

these are just above waist and just below

9:26 am

ah mimi, that I do have!!

9:27 am

Sadly, I already have some arthritis. And I don't plan on leaving my MD/PsyD.

9:27 am

One of the benefits to living here in Phoenix is that it is so dry my arthritis virtually never bothers me.

9:27 am

I think that's one reason we have so many retirement communities.

9:28 am

That sounds great Mimi. Oh, and I'm also only 36.

9:29 am

You wouldn't have to leave current MD but you could add a DI for consultation and treatment of this one problem....just a suggestion.

9:30 am

Thanks for the suggestion Mimi. I'm just tired of being in constant pain day in and day out.

9:31 am

Wow---36 was a long time ago for me. Just had last child the year before and now she's 29, a paralegal and newly married. Time flies...whether or not you're having fun.

9:31 am

I know how you feel, red. I just had my 3rd back surgery which will hopefully correct the problem I' having with my legs not working properly.

9:32 am

I hope so!

9:33 am

This has been a horrible year. I would have "attacks" where I couldn't even stand up at all. And this happened over and over, often lasting up to a week each time and in between my legs wouldn't work well. Using a walker now.

9:34 am

You can only imagine how not being able to stand up impacts all aspects of your life.

9:38 am

Time for breakfast....HAGD everyone!

9:39 am

and you Mimi, and all the best

9:39 am

with upcoming surgery

9:40 am

Surgery done, flosey, but thanks.

9:40 am

i'm sorry for what you've been going through mimi and hope next year is a better one

9:41 am

It almost has to be, right, hurshy?! Also lots of other turmoil this year. Thank goodness for vodka!

9:41 am

I'm with Hurshy, Mimi!

2:10 pm

do any of you have a relative who is pushy about the holidays ? we told my mom we have food to eat for thanksgiving but she said she would give us the money to reimburse us if we would come ot her house for thanksgiving? we don't have any actual plans in fact I think hubby is going to cook. My husband said just to forget it. We thought if she knew we had food it wouldn't be an issue. My husband says he think their Is a reason she wants us there? only one of my siblings and his family will be there(they live in same state). This guy my mom has spent a lot of time with will also be there

2:11 pm

Maybe she just wants to have her family together.

2:11 pm

Wants to see you.

2:12 pm

I thought of that .. she also knows we have a cat and no one to take care of it. she doesn't even say where we would be sleeping family together minus one of her children and she didn't say what they were doing to celebrate

2:12 pm

do you live far from your Mom?

2:13 pm

annie three hrs

2:13 pm

by ca

2:14 pm

car we have tried the don't have the money for gas , cars don't work well etc. She wants to show off her new house is part of it I am sure. I saw a photo of the outside and its huge. along with the dinning room

2:15 pm

Why not phone her and discuss it with her?

2:15 pm

good idea

2:15 pm

ditto

a lot of people seem to have pretty firm ideas about what thanksgiving, or all holidays for that matter, "should" look like...

2:17 pm

she called again and talked to me about the reimbursement of the meal and didn't mention it to my husband

2:17 pm

there that is true

2:18 pm

I mentioned it to him though

2:19 pm

i didn't want to get into a fight with her about it but if we are eating here don't you think that is what we are doing regardless of anything?

2:20 pm

My husband thinks she might have a "motive"

it sounds like you will just have to tell her, kindly but firmly, no thank you, not this year.

altho that never stopped my own mom from continuing to push, lol

2:22 pm

there i think we though she understood from the convo with my husband the first time? But apparently not .. and i don't disagree with you

2:22 pm

there see you know what its like lol

2:23 pm

Moms gonna mom

2:23 pm

does she do this every year?

2:23 pm

cos its their job isn't it?lol

oh yeah. Mine definitely wanted the whole Norman Rockwell thing going on. And she didn't even grow up in the US, lol

yes, you will always be her kid (or in my case, her baby since i'm the youngest)

2:24 pm

that makes that kind of difficult doesn't it there?lol

2:24 pm

there i am the youngest as well

oh that reminds me, it's my brother's b-day today, lol. He's the oldest and the only boy so is the golden child. (Not that I resented it growing up, lol)

2:28 pm

my brother's bday was yesterday i didn't call him for a reason but i knew

2:28 pm

my brothers the golden child. doesnt help he was on the news last week for saving a girls life

2:29 pm

2:29 pm

2:31 pm

my brother who will be there for turkey day is the only one who will allow his children around her. they are both spoiled and i am worried about their future things have already started with one of them. the other sibling has two children who are "on a schedule" via their mom.. they live in another state from both one sibling and myself

2:31 pm
