Are you on a computer?
Yes, meliae.

OK. Thanks

goed afternoon all
Hi Sprite!
Good morning everyone
car.ee! *hug* That's been ages. How's life treating you?
Honestly...this month a kick in the balls every day. But I keep getting up and out of bed and putting one foot in front of the other. You?
Guess I should have said "kick in the boobs" actually, eh?
you are a hero. Some months really are like that, aren't they. I am fine. Slowly getting my life on the rails, as it were. Progress, not perfection ;)
I'm here almost every day, but keep rather quiet.
yeah, or in the teeth, lol. Better no kicking at all though.
Oooh! I like that...progress not perfection.
The last year has totally sucked.
ugh, that is long for suckage. *sends blessings and happy events and good vibes and baby kittens to car.ee*
NO! no more kittens! please! Plus, all my cats are boys, so that would be really scary...
I need lots of prayers for my oldest...he is in the hospital.
*retracks baby kittens, replaces with sweet sexy men and stiff long drinks*
oh my god... what is the matter with him? Am adding him (and you) to my prayer list.
Yes, all of us need prayer right now.
He is in an adolescent psych unit (for lack of a better term)
if you don't want to tell, that is fine too.
oh dear... I am so sorry, car. You must be worried sick.
Between the anxiety on my hubby's side and the depression on my side of the family, this poor kid is struggling.
in 6/24, pls
such a powerless feeling, isn't it, seeing your child struggle with that kind of heritage. And nobody is to blame.
good morning
hi bichon
Hello bichon
It is killing me
having to leave him the other night with him begging me to take him home...I will never be able to erase that image
in + netting
((((( car ))))) that is so horrible.
but he is where he needs to be. Meds are kicking in and he is learning valuable coping skills, which, honestly, this whole family can use.
ty Luv
hi LWG
hi luv
hi sprite & car, didn't mean to interrupt
I'm happy you are here!
all good, Luv, no interruption, just being part of the chat :)
thanks car & I hope your son gets the help he needs
thank you. I am hopeful that he is.
I hope that at some point you will both look back and see that the time in the hospital was just what he needed to find his way.
:)
es
sorry about that
keep getting stupid red boxes...probably my connection.
hi phae! Yeah, either that or some server near you is having problems
Hi phae
phantom: pleasant
hi everyone...yea the time counter keeps going down to 1 min, then back to hours
frustrating :(
good morning, babblers!
hiya EvaN :)
hello sprite!
Hi Eva!
Hi Eva
hi car!
heya bichon
Good morning, all.
morning Judi
Hi Judi
It's a Babble-miracle! I have found ALL of the O's!
*cheers for car*
I am so stuck
can we assist?
some oddball words in there, for sure
that would totally take up your day. We'll see how it goes
what does the 9 start with
one of them starts XA. Don't have the other one yet.
and hi sue
xa is an 8
hi all
oh. Let me see then, lol, sorry.
does it build off the xa8
ta9/54, alt spelling for the te8/40
oh, cant
te 8/40, pls
infestation with tapeworms
ewwwww
yeah. Yuck.
Don't know what that word is
if you have the 1st te 6/18 plural it again
i dont
te5/10 amd ta6/18 are the tapeworms, both in the grid, and their plurals. the 8 and 9 build on those.
te 5/10 is number + 2 vowels,then plural for 6
the tapeworm is a babblet
On that note, I need a break. Have a great day everyone!
*hugs car* Will pray for your son and you
ty
got the other one. En8/50 - 9/66
got them, ty
the ta and te
not the en

You shoplift.

yvw
Lol Judi :D

Seeya, Sprite!

Don't have that one yet, Phae.
phae, lack of strength...weakness
ty Judi
ty pcal
hmmmm, lack of strength ....
ax5?
a principle phae
yw
not understanding clues for as 8 or the ax5 further help please?
Ax5: self-evident truth, an old stand-by.
got it hi judi ty
I don't get the As8 clue either.
third column a?
as 8....not first but l*** + egg layer + two vowels...
third column A....an 4...an 6/24....
no...last one is not that A....
sorry...
it's ai 4/4...
Ty for the AS8.
ty got the an4
yw...
[pen your clkues usually work for me but I am still not getting the as8 word?\
as + word that usually leads to what comes next in a narrative + two vowels...
got it ty
th column O above the x and the x ?
just need the X pls/
xa + not this but **** + vowel...
I will be back....
I did find the X word. However, for a while, all I could think of was Xanadu... gets me nowhere.
oops...forgot to add a consonant after the XA.....
Thanks for the XA 8.
Ta9?
Sorry, Judi, not long started so do not know.
NM. Got it.
Lots of vowels involved
The problem with kittens is that you don't get as much sleep as you might normally...unless you shut them away
what if you take catnaps instead
lol
That will leave you feline groovy.
yeah, I did consider having someone catnap them last night
How many kittens are we talking about here?
three
Judi - that was terrific, "feline groovy" (-:
that's a lot of pussys
*Rolls eyes*
a plethora one might say
*snort* Are they still with the mama cat?
ah no, adopted them from the local humane society
2 are from one litter, third one - who likes to perch himself on your head, face any exposed body part near your eyes - is 2 weeks younger
Get a nice big basket or box, line it with an item of clothing or blanket that smells like you. Put the basket in a small room (with litter box of course). Put kittens in the room for the night, turn off light & close door. Best if this room is far away from your bedroom.
yeah, generally we have them in our bathroom...but made the mistake not to do that last night
They will get used to that routine pretty quickly. However, every morning when you free them, they will be bouncing off the walls.
they're a bunch of fun, but sleep is nice too
judi can you clue the ta9pls?
It's a TA6, Ta7 and Ta9 trio, MLF. Start with TA6/18:
ty judi
that ta9 worms its way around the grid
Ta6: misspelling of British drink + two vowels.
got the xa word
didn't know you could plural the plural
judi what kind of drink?
one that involves bags
What everyone in Britain drinks. Made from leaves.
oohhhh ty
In fact, Judi, I have a cup of it here :-)
avoids discussion of tea bags
*juvenile giggle*
I got the 6 and 8 ty all

thank you harp jane! What a great clue as well
yvw, a great clue for baby boomers anyway
there is a po 8 compound word?
as8 help please?
yes
Hi Nellie Olsen.
that sounds like fun, scrabbler! I managed a long walk on the beach, but that was it
usually prefixed with my, debilitating disease
perfect clue, TO, thanks
Tomorrow will be another gorgeous day so I am not sure whether to kayak somewhere or bike.
Are you still very itchy?
i am not sure whether to head to Jim Thorpe again or to NJ for the cranberry festival
Sometimes, Bichon. I am trying to ignore my wasp stings.
cranberry! cranberry!
I had two stings recently on my thumbs
watching the game, nrk?
To relieve itching?
watching the game, yes... excruciating
I had a beer to calm my nerves. Should have had gin.
yes. and i need to be eyes on, not on the grid
should ALWAYS have gin.
but i am dieting.
Gin and vodka are on my diet.
Beer is not
I should have had the gin
I've lost 41 pounds!
I just started a new eating plan = intermittent fasting. I have lost 2.6 lbs in 1 wk. GREAT for you, nrkii!
wow! you have the greatest willpower.
well done, nrikii!!! I have only lost 10 and it is horrible
It is so tough, isn't it?
i saw your porch. when will it be finished?
I'm doing no/low carb. Except gin, vodka and very dark chocolate. :)
Friday is my weigh-in day, so I let myself have a pumpkin beer tonight.
I am doing low carb with 16 hrs of fasting every day.
he 8/50, pls
i did a low carb diet. I lost a lot of weight, but became ver constipated
A surgeon's instrument to clamp a blood vessel and stop bleeding.
scrabbler, aren't you vegetarian?
ty Dr. S
Yes, so low carb is tough with a plant-based diet.
first in 6?
I cant imagine not eating for that long...I would get so weak I think
I have tried to be a vegan all summer but occasionally have cheese.
in 6, part of your foot
I can't imagine doing low carb without beef and chicken. Wishing you well, but I don't envy your challenge.
Actually no, Trif. With low carb eating you don't get so hungry and weak as with low fat diets.
thanks scrabbler. sounds hard though
bichon...is that the first in 6?
I could never eat meat again. Never. 36 years now.
i would think low carb would be easy as a vegtan
There's always pizza
With a cauliflower crust.
unless you eat a lot of potatoes and beans and beets
bichon....did you clue the in 6/24?....(i have the in 6/18)....
There are SO many veggies to eat.
in + something to enclose something in
en6/24?
sadly, potatoes and beans are off my list of acceptable foods...
inenvelope
ty...got it...
Same for me, nrkii.
en6 24 = en + fishnet stockings, perhaps?
Another clue, bichon?
i'll just go back to lurk mode now. it's been an f it kind of day.

I found 200 and I am done. See you tomorrow.
po8 is NOT a compound word, as clued a while back. save yourself the agony
it isn't?
no. just because a word consists of other words, does not make it a compound word. in this case, it is a prefix.
May I please have a clue for any en6? Thanks
en6 the outside of a tooth
en6 to charm or captivate
en6 tangle in a net
