red, take my advice and head for the hills. this has to be one of the most horrible grids i have ever seen... loll lovely to see you dear.

2:13 am

Horrible would be an upgrade for me at the moment. ;P

2:13 am

I do appreciate the warning, though.

2:13 am

oh love, what's going on?

2:15 am

My Mama died tonight. Got a call around 9:30 this morning. I got geared up, set things in order, packed, and hit the road from TN to WI. Got to the hospital at 10:00 PM. She passed at 9:30 PM.

2:16 am

oh darling. surrounding you with hugs and holding you in my arms sweetheart.

2:17 am

So, I'm wide awake trying to think of clothes for her to wear and pictures to give the funeral home when we meet tomorrow.

2:18 am

My message just returned for real when I hit enter rather than posting, so I kept trying. Whoops.

2:18 am

Thank you dear grannyrose, I appreciate it.

2:19 am

Actually, Rose was my Grandma's middle name. :)

2:19 am

honey, choose her favorite clothes. you know what she liked. and take all the photos you can lay your hands on. the funeral home will help you to choose the pics best.

2:19 am

Mom's been terminal for a while. They told us a year ago, just about to the day that she probably only had a few months to live.

2:20 am

So, we eked out a good bit of extra time.

2:20 am

so you had time to say goodbye. and let her know just how much she was loved.

2:20 am

She had everything planned out and paid for, logistically, which is really nice. And I know she told me what she wants to wear, etc., but I honestly only half listened because I hoped I wouldn't need to know for a while. You know?

2:22 am

i know exactly... you know her tastes... let your instinct guide her.

2:22 am

ugh,,,, you

2:23 am

I am so sorry, redshoes. Lots of prayers coming your way. Blessings.

2:23 am

Thanks all.

2:24 am

I think I have her outfit figured out. My aunt is her best friend and is coming over to the house and then going to the funeral home with me tomorrow. I've laid things out so she can confirm. :)

2:24 am

you are too young to have lost your mom. please lean on us. vent what you are feeling. we will understand.

2:25 am

good for you sweetie

2:25 am

Rose, have you been watching the news lately? I want to apologise for the awful things that are being said. So embarrassing.

2:26 am

oh, peach thank-you. please don't give it second thought. they are grown adults...

2:26 am

I lost my sister 4 years ago next month, so I have practice, but yes, Mama was only 66.

2:26 am

We don't know what to do.

2:27 am

Oh, Peach...it's all a mess.

2:29 am

Truer words were never spoken, redshoes.

2:30 am

i like to leave the politicking to the politicians. not to people who are friends.

2:32 am

i have one word to go. un6/21 after the un5, plural. please save my sanity.

2:32 am

Blessed Be, Redshoes. I'm sorry for your loss. I know we haven't met before, but you have my sincere condolences, losing a family member is always difficult. Big hugs.

2:33 am

Sorry, hon, don't have it.

2:33 am

hey kam

2:33 am

Hi Rose, how are you today?

2:34 am

tu a

2:34 am

kam, i am amazing. i have had an injection in4 my right hip, and six in4 my lower back.

2:34 am

un6/21 - take away what the hammer put in

2:35 am

i am on the exercise bike and walking freely. i did the supermarket shopping today

2:35 am

Sorry, meandered for a bit and lost track of the chog. Thank you Kamanjah.

2:35 am

thank-you dearest haz. and how are you dear?

2:36 am

Haz, what an interesting word.

2:36 am

You're welcome and I'm fine, thanks.

2:36 am

Rose, glad to hear you're getting around so well. Good news indeed!

2:36 am

And yet, they don't recognize "Rotini." Hello, world, penne and ziti are not the only pastas out there. ;)

2:36 am

i also did all the folding, sorting and ironing of the clean wash STANDING UP.

2:37 am

miss you haz

2:37 am

YAY Grannyrose!!! Mobility is a gift we take for granted.

2:38 am

Good for you Rose, glad to hear you're doing so much better!

2:38 am

red, my dearest darling. holding you close to my heart. when is the service? i would like to pray for you and yours at that time.

2:39 am

It's one of the reasons I don't care about trying to find the closest parking spot. No matter how lazy my bum feels, I know I'm healthy and can walk the distance, where some people can't.

2:40 am

Don't have the service info yet. I will go to the funeral home tomorrow afternoon...well, I guess now it's technically today.

2:40 am

red, please email me. addy in profile.

2:42 am

need tea...bbl

2:45 am

enjoy p;each

2:46 am

Will do. I appreciate it, granny. Your concern feels providential, given that the last thing my mom said was "Mom" a few times, which we interpret as her getting ready to rejoin with her mom, my "Granny (Helen) Rose.". I don't believe that's a coincidence.

2:54 am

no coincidence at all. xoxox

3:03 am

dinner nearly ready. catch y'all later. xoxox

3:18 am

why is 'linctus' not acceptable?

I'm not liking this grid

5:05 am

Vanna, I'd like to buy an E please.

Heh.

I have zi4/10 and zi4/9 could someone give me the stats for the other two z's, please?

zi 4/9 & 5/20

thanks

yvw

50 left. Gonna get a cup of tea - I feel like I'm getting a cold :(

6:19 am

I agree with Molly.

6:20 am

Don't get the cold/flu I had - almost took me out. Worst in decades...

I blame Jeff (my OH). He just said yesterday I rarely get colds. FW

6:22 am

So many A words...help?

6:56 am

Very Excellent! You win a Paella!

6:57 am

with tapas I hope

6:58 am

Oh yes!

6:58 am

And Sangria

6:58 am

and squid [not!]

6:59 am

Ok, shrimp?

6:59 am

I don't think shrimp is on the Spanish menu [at least not when I was there last summer]

7:00 am

Hmmmm, I always saw it in paella.... with sausage .... Where were you in Spain?

7:01 am

Just Madrid [but of course I could be mistaken]

7:02 am

Maybe you could get different types of paella. I bet the recipe is different in every restaurant.

7:03 am

We did have Paella, I must have forgotten

7:18 am

can anyone tell me what the 9 begins with please?

7:19 am

says tu9 back at the flip in chog, I don't have it yet, though

7:20 am

ty

7:20 am

tu9/60 - it continues from the 7

7:20 am

good morning babblers

7:21 am

got it..thanks

7:21 am

ty, Riverdance

7:22 am

anyone know what the 10 starts with

7:22 am

tr

7:23 am

i have a question...is there no list from lickety?

7:23 am

got it thanks

7:23 am

I don't know as I don't list

7:24 am

I have lickety showing this one, first I've looked, though, hadn't gone there yet.

7:24 am

NBT and NBS with 81 to go - this is a tough grid

7:25 am

if still showing a previous one, I read the other day that someone right-clicked in the white area around the list and reloaded, which fixed it.

7:26 am

or maybe it was clicked in the white area and then hit F5... I read both approaches, lol

7:27 am

yesterday matty told me to click on the old list and hold down ctrl and F5 together

7:28 am

I should really make a little list of all these helpful things to try, haha

7:28 am

did it work for you, rbud?

7:29 am

don't know, I wasn't having a problem. I usually get Lickety updated all right, but I've seen many who don't. Something worked for whoever it was, not sure which approach it was. :)

7:30 am

I usually get Lickety updated automatically too but I had to use crtl and F5 today and yesterday

7:31 am

i thought i saw someone said the list was up but when i click on it, the last one is wednesday....i'm probably doing something wrong

7:31 am

I also find that right-clicking on people's little icons in chog and reloading will update them when they say they changed it but it hasn't for me yet - but that's another story. :D

7:31 am

I tried clicking and F5-ing everywhere but no joy!

7:31 am

75 left - time to give eyes a break - have a good day folks

7:32 am

click on the old list and hold down ctrl and F5 together and hold it until the new list comes up

7:33 am

hello...are you talking about expert or lickety's web site accessed from here?

7:34 am

ty

7:34 am

I am talking about Expert

7:34 am

ty

7:35 am

oh, I was talking about Lickety's

7:35 am

that worked for me

7:35 am

worked on the web site too

7:36 am

I use babble expert but Lickety's list is on there

7:37 am

phantom: canal

7:38 am

I don't have f5 on my computer

7:38 am

you don't have function keys?

7:38 am

bichon, look on the very, very top row

7:39 am

if you play on a tablet, you wouldn't.

7:41 am

No, am on PC. But I cleanedout my cache and now have the correct clues

7:47 am

As Annie said, on a PC the function keys are across the top of your keyboard, next to the ESC key.

7:47 am

Not on my Lenovo. But they are on Mr. Bich's Dell

7:49 am

Happy Friday, babblers!

7:49 am

On a Lenovo keyboard you have an Fn key and you press that + 5 for F5

7:49 am

Happy Friday Eva

7:49 am

Hi Eva

7:50 am

Hi Eva, what a cutie

7:50 am

ty Molly, see it now

7:51 am

TY annie -- thought it was looking pretty good today. ;)

7:51 am

7:55 am

hes a generally happy little guy, so its easy to get a great photo. :_

7:55 am

:)

7:55 am

hi folks - was able to bring up the current list on Expert by clearing temp. internet files with CCleaner - had to do it yesterday too.

7:56 am

As did I Aloy

7:58 am

before I did it, posting was delayed too - but all is well after cleaning

7:59 am

going to start my breakfast

7:59 am

me too Annie

8:03 am

d

8:03 am

This grid is turning into a nightmare to find words!

8:04 am

all i can say today is do not forget the al ending for words :-) off to make breakfast- hagd all

8:06 am

or the "us" ending, tough grid

8:08 am

I only have the intercourse & bum words that have that ending.

8:09 am

bum word? This could be a word only Brits use

8:09 am

AN 4/5

8:09 am

this grid needs an e

8:10 am

oh that bum, I was thinking hobo

8:10 am

lol

8:10 am

Hi kids.

8:10 am

Hello, Scrabs :-)

8:11 am

Hi Scrabs

8:11 am

Hi Scrabbs, how is your sister?

8:11 am

there is also a flower that uses that ending

8:11 am

Hi Scrabs

8:11 am

not coleus

8:11 am

lo5

8:12 am

also a burden

8:12 am

ty phae

8:12 am

yw

8:12 am

How did I miss that one! Thank you, Phaeton.

8:12 am

She is doing OK for now. We are all waiting for her to heal and come home soon. But she will need another operation soon for the remaining portion of the tumor. Radiation is unlikely to be a good option.

8:12 am

Burden?

8:13 am

yw zooz...on4

8:13 am

is that not the def?

8:13 am

((Scrabbler)) I did not know about that. Sorry to hear. Hope all goes well for your sister.

8:14 am

Oh yes sorry, Phaeton. I already had that one.

8:14 am

np...I am not always correct in my defs. :-)

8:14 am

scrabbs, I wish her a speedy recovery and that this ordeal is behind her in the very near future.

8:15 am

Benign brain tumor although it is never benign to have something growing in your cranium. There is only finite space inside there.

8:15 am

TY, Annie.

8:16 am

What in the world is going on? Today, on lickety I have yesterday clues. Cleaned my cache yesterday, hit f5 and control and nothing is happening. Does anyone have the clues on their page?

8:16 am

Shes really been on a rollarcoaster, but she does have family to keep her spirits up

8:16 am

just clean again, paco

8:16 am

yes paco, I cleaned my cache again today

8:17 am

Paco I know it might be bind to do but you could restart your computer after the cache cleaning that might work.

8:17 am

hold down the F5 and control til it changes...worked for me

8:18 am

I just checked and it had yesterdays clues in the list so I just right clicked and refreshed. All okay now.

8:19 am

That doesn't work phaeton. I refresh and reopen and it doesn't work. Try again tomorrow.

8:19 am

Although it was called reload current page.

8:20 am

click on the old clues then hold down ctrl and F5 until the new clues come up

8:20 am

https://tinyurl.com/yfsoeph

8:20 am

Try the link for the babble clues. Maybe opening it that way might work for you, Paco.

8:21 am

actin

8:21 am

TY, anike.

8:22 am

you can extend that word, Scrabs to get the 7,7 & 8

8:24 am

I will look. I am just getting familiar with the grid.

8:25 am

I thought I was ding well untill I had around 70 left and I came to a complete halt.

8:25 am

8:27 am

I found one ac7.

8:27 am

Thanks zooz

8:28 am

Most welcome :-)

8:35 am

OK, got it. See, in Italian that is wrong so I don't try it.

8:38 am

TY.

8:39 am

Enable. Try everything lol

8:39 am

Yes, add an S to every word.

8:39 am

is it its own pl in Italian?

8:41 am

8:42 am

Yes, it is plural form of zito.

8:42 am

ah, ty

8:43 am

Which is in the grid but not accepted. Tsk!

8:44 am

Yes!

8:44 am

8:59 am

I've given up on English ever pluralizing Italian correctly

8:59 am

9:14 am

clearing cache might help

9:35 am

hi Trif, a snow day?

9:36 am

nah, we have professional development at noon, so they get to go home

9:36 am

I don't mind so much. Not a heavy load day, and the class this afternoon is fairly interesting

9:36 am

nothing like developing your professionals

9:37 am

hahah moolingwa, exactly!

9:37 am

the only bad part is that they are holding it in the elementary school cafeteria, which is cold as balls, and the chairs are just little stools, so my bad does get weary.

9:37 am

Did you enjoy your planned nap yesterday, Trif?

9:38 am

oh, zooz, did I ever! I felt quite bad about skipping the gym, but fell asleep within MINUTES to hitting the pillows, so it was what I really needed. you are such a dear to remember!

9:38 am

sounds like more fun than a grasshopper wrestling match

9:41 am

we had a gas leak this morning, and spent 25 minutes standing outside in 20 degree weather. So that was fun.

9:42 am

let me tell you, this place is a hot bed of excitement!

9:42 am

ugh, Trif

9:42 am

too much fun triff...I'm jealous

9:43 am

Good Afternoon Everyone. I have NBS, and am just lacking the 9 letter word for NBT. Could someone give me the stats for it please?

1:57 pm

tu9/60

1:58 pm

bogus word :)

1:58 pm

but that ending is pretty common in this grid

1:58 pm

thank you very much Annie. How are you doing these days? (I haven't seen you lately, I guess we aren't Babbling at the same times now)

1:59 pm

I am okay. Waiting patiently for warmer weather. How are you doing, Nef?

2:00 pm

Doing okay these days; we are having a "nice" winter (if you don't like lots of cold & snow).

2:01 pm

And thank you mool for the clues. I got it!

2:01 pm

No snow but very cold here. How is your hubby?

2:03 pm

2:03 pm

2:04 pm

t

2:04 pm

the 10 starts with t

2:07 pm

monkeys of victory, found it! thanks mool.

2:07 pm

DH is doing "okay" right now; he's having prostate surgery next Thursday to see if that will help stop the urine infections which he's been plagued with the past 6 months. Every time he gets any infection he ends up in the hospital because the slightest temp makes his MS symptoms much worse.

2:12 pm

I wonder why Enable doesn't think situ is a word?

2:15 pm

tried that. Odd isn't it when you think of all the other abbreviations it allows

2:16 pm

It takes situs but not situ.

2:17 pm

that's true. But situ is a scientific term so it *should* be a word.

2:18 pm

I know.

2:21 pm

Deep & Habes; you both have darling kiddos for your icons. :-)

2:22 pm

Thanks. Granddaughter, Caroline, now six months old.

2:23 pm

my two granddaughters too. best thing on the world being a grandmother

2:23 pm

Grandkids are so much more fun that children; aren't they? :-)

2:24 pm

nitis

2:24 pm

sorry always doing that

2:24 pm

They are. I think it's because you know it's the last time you'll have babies in your life. You appreciate them more.

2:25 pm

Too much to do when they're your own. Too busy to enjoy them as much as you are able to enjoy the grandbabies. They're wonderful.

2:35 pm

That is so true. I think parenting is so stressful; you're always trying to cope with everything at once; but grandparents have more time to focus on the children

2:35 pm

am I back?

2:35 pm

tremendous wi-fi issues today for some reasons

2:35 pm

were you gone?

2:35 pm

I blame Trump

2:36 pm

Refresh Lickety. Refresh, refresh, refresh.

5:51 pm

6:00 pm

It seems like that is the common reply to questions about why Expert or Lickety's list is not current. And yet the question gets asked again, and again and again.

6:16 pm

yes, but straight gin is not exactly my favorite thing...

6:16 pm

Bourbon!

6:17 pm

Man, I knew I should have stopped by the liquor store to get decent bourbon before leaving TN to drive to WI. Looks like Mother Tea-Totaler Hubbard's cupboards over here.
