good morning Sprite
good evening,flosey *hug* I hope you had a nice day today?
yes thanks Sprite, and tomorrow Daughter is coming over for a few days
oh how lovely.
am going to stop at half way tonight, need 2 more words
gooooo flosey!
did it!! good night all be back tomorrow
sleep well, dear lady :)
{{sprite}} hugs and kisses. have been to see dr john. how are you now honey? i know how low you have been.
*hugs rose* Please tell me all that dr John said!
he doesn't mince is words with me. i am now to have 3 day infusions. an d, yes, sweetie, you nearly lost me with last lot of heart pain. he said... but rosey, you nearly died. no wonder you were wepy.
I knew it. *holds rose in a very tight embrace* You do all that the doctors order, ya hear? I am NOT ready to let you go yet.
he cannot do the implants because of the anticoagulant i am on. he said dr nick would have a conniption fit if he was asked if i could stop the med... loll
but....
*giggles* Yeah, they will have to find a balance in what is possible to do. How are you feeling now, darling? And when is the appointment with the heart doc?
he is going to do the denervation on my lower back in the infusion after the next one.
that sounds good
yesterdays cousins reunion was a blast. nearly 70 people descended from one couple and his siblings. the sports club where we went were absolutely rapt. i mean, prolly one of their quietest day of the year, and there we were eating and drinking like there as no tomorrow.
am so glad you had a good time!
ah, that was a hiccup. Back now.
finally.... it was good for don to be there. he really only knew that i had had a cardiac event. he didn't realise the enormity of it.also dr john was able to reassure us that the breathlessness can take up to 3 months to go. so one month down...
vvvv
vvvv
hi smom
good clear words from doctor John. I am sorry Don had to experience another shock, but it was necessary for him to know how close a call this has been. He has to take supergood care of you.
You take care of you too, rose!! Life is more precious than we really know
amen to that, Kam. And *hugs* to you too. How are you doing, and your husband?
At least DH is better today...will see what tomorrow brings
well i have made it to 2018...
Frankly, I'm frazzled, but that will pass. DH is better, and that's what matters!
oh, btw, Rose: DC43 sends her regards and good wishes to you.
hey ya kam. hugs and kisses.what sprite asked.
OK, you have to make it to 2019 too!
nah, that is not all that matters, Kam, you matter too. Glad to hear your husband is doing okay atm. But what can you do to take extra good care of yourself today?
sprite.... DC43 ???
I don't wanna hear about you dying until at least 2050, rose
atria
sowwy......
sure, sure, try to talk over it by playing Penalty Box Babble.
I'm gonna be ok, my health is ok, my nerves are raggedy! As long as hubby gets over this whatever that hit him for 4 days, I'll be happy.
*sending healing vibes to Kam's husband and calming vibes to Kam's poor nerves*
Today's doc visit got a "you're ok today" but the neurosurgeon is tomorrow...scary one for me. Just a consult, but still... brain surgery scares the oomph outta me
thanks, sprite!
I can imagine. One step at a time, Kam... try not to borrow trouble.
yep, one doc visit at a time...we have other stuff going on...like selling a car and a boat...stress happens, and it kinda bit me today - the person getting the car decided she needed it 4 days earlier than agreed...minor details...ha!
ugh, yeah, minor details but oh, they can take such a lot of energy to manage. Especially when people go around and change stuff. Not easy.
So, Rose, you're ok if you're careful, or need another procedure - red boxes seemed to bust up your posts
i'm okay kam. just need to take it easier for another two months.
And you will do so?? I hope!! hugs!
if I have to tie her to her chair!
haha - sounds like my DH - always fine until he's, well, not fine
lolll.... gotta catch me first.
that's easy *dangles a sangria before Rose's nose* come get it, girl, come get it...
roflolll
hahaha
GOTCHA!
make it a nice Zin and I'll follow anywhere...
that is good to know :D
I'm drinking boring water
hey, I do too, most of the time. Water is good. Great stuff.
and rose and I even had big glasses of water with our sangria :)
:D
never a hangover if you observe that one single rule, grin
exactly!
rose, leave dem squirrels alone and stay with us!
*raspberries* that's okay for super word-finder and typist to say....
who's that you are talking about? *looks around for dart*
btw, i notice just how nicely you dodged my questions when you came in.... hmmmmm
nah, no dodging, just more interested in you
uh huh
fireflies. My last words were all words I had already used in a compound or something, but forgotten to enter the single form. Time for a tiny nap, me thinks. Been awake wince 2 am, sigh.
g'nite ladies, I have to go calm down so I can get to sleep - big day for DH tomorrow, and I'm the driver now (I hate driving, but now it's my job...life happens!)
Have a lovely day, Sprite!
WTG SPRITE !!!
Bye Kam, *hugs* and sleep well. May the appt with the doctor go very very well, with a reassuring outcome.
bye rose *BIG hug for my best friend* Take care of yourself, sweetie. Love you.
sweet dreams kam, and i hope your day goes well, snooze away honey. granny is rocking you gently in her arms. xoxox
Good morning. Many French words today
heth
oops
Good morning Ruby. It is 7 degrees here and I am getting clinically depressed about this bitter cold winter.
Hello, Molly. It is above freezing here, but they're predicting a destructive (named!!) windstorl which is jst now starting
l think this is the coldest winter, ever, on the US east coast. My sister, in NY, can't go outside
Oh, sorry to hear that. I know you don't like the wind.
You remembered that!! You are a marvel!
l think this is the first year they've started naming storms here
Wh** can you do to counter your sad mood? Protracted cold is awful!
l've been binge-watching Downton Abbey to foil the winter blues.
It helps
I'm dreaming of Monday when it is supposed to be 44. That will feel like Summer after this.
My sister sent me something yesterday that said "It's that time of year when it is so cold that you get in your car and scream &@#! until you get warm"
Sounds like a plan
l am so Lucky! The woman who bought my house (reverse mortgage) just called and she's bringing me some meat! Incredible!
That is very nice of her. I'm glad you have people who are good to you.
l am really fortunate.
Hi. Merry happy Christmas New year
Hi Herin, same to you :)
Just heading to bed. Thought I would say hi.
hi all. I have stats for the 8's but I cannot find them.
I hate the cold and snow but if the sun is shining I feel much better
Hate after christmas but just cheered myself up by booking flight to US in Feb
How nice, Deeha.
Where will you be going?
to Boulder via Denver. I have family there including 89 year old brother.Want to see him again
Flying Norwegian air. Daughter reckons its cheap because it is pulled by Reindeer. I thought Santa probably needed the work as he is off now tillD ecember
LOL!
my friend flew norwegian to europe and said yes it was cheap but they're very stringent about baggage and will charge you for everything
so price wise if you end up paying for your bags, then it's about the same
she did say it was a nice new plane
nice
oops
Shirlock, was it you that was going to see The Greatest Showman?
i saw it last night....excellent....
not me
hugh jackman is worth watching
We would like to see it. Thanks, pen.
even my brother liked it a lot....he said it was better than Star Wars and he likes science fiction....
better than star wars?!
that's what he said....it was a very well done movie....very well acted, sung, directed, edited, etc....
i did not see Star Wars...
With this cold weather, going to a theatre is a nie way to get out of the house.

(not the storm, just nbaming it)
What did they name it, ruby?
expecting snow and high winds here tomorrow....
It isn't an easy one.
<__ can't remember -- LOL
expecting no unusual weather events tomorrow
Today feels like Sunday; l think l'm losing whatever marbles l have left..............
not sure whether sunday would feel better than wednesday at this point
Whatever raft l cling to, holidays throw me off

tx shirl :)

I really should pay more attention to this customer presentation :)
l still need the lower l, pls help
we're all urchin to sea what's next
I feel like we're going to conch out with these bivalve puns
abalone!
we need to scall-op the tone of this conversation if we want to stay above water
greetings from much warmer California
i have lots of pun friends these days and not anemones
hi bich.. you on the peninsula?
I'll just clam up and shell out a few clues.
that warms the cockles of my heart ru
I used to dance to that tune, ru -- I met my love in Abalone
yes ru. It's so nice to wake up to temps in the 50's
It makes me all geo-duck inside
and the self-pitying solo: I'm abalone, so abalone
**you may need to look up the pronunciation of that last one otherwise it won't make sense
Has anyone ever eaten geo-duck?
i have
I don't eat seafood myself
so, no
a little chewy if you ask me
Is it good? I like shellfish.
ah yes, seafood gum
I'm on a seafood diet now..
i See food and I eat it
I know the pronunciation, moo. I buy them on the Wharf. Just dealing with the print of it. That's legal as far as I know in Punland.
I feel like I'm back in the early 80s
Ha ru
I should've known better, well-informed crowd we have on babble :)
I'll see you one and raise it
I'd post a picture of a geo-duck, but some here would probably be offended by it's rather obscene appearance.
they are so cute, Judi
most geo-ducks looks like they should go to bris :D
I remember watching Dirty Jobs once. Mike Rowe was harvesting geo-duck somewhere in New England.
we're the older, wiser crowd, moo. (I think)
older anyways
Jewish shellfish?
I do like abalone.. but don't condone killing them any longer
right. only the shorter ones
You're right about the ecology though, ru
Are there no abalone farms?
they are really important to the environment here.. but it's out of balance with otters and humans poaching them
there used to be judi.. but it took far too long to herd them :D
Time to start eating the otter white meat.
otters are really cute.. can't eat cute things
everything is cute when young
True. I would never eat an otter. I would imagine they are even chewier than geo-duck.
they are mostly fur.. to be honest
As for poaching, there otter be a law. Sorry.
never apologize; never explain
i know ... you can't kelp yourself judi
Don't ask. Don't tell.
like you can . . .
like You can ... is what I meant (explaining)'
You both pun good
judi is usually krilling it here with jokes
Punning about shellfish? Naut (il) us.
ru is just angling for groans... ;o)
you were going so fast I didn't get in the one about poaching otters. It's a clamity
can someone please clue the ne 7?
ha.. that's a good one jw
it's one or the other, pen
Ne7: nors partner.

duh....ty,judi, jwr....

found this grid to be a tuffie
I have found 58 in between patients. I am done with office hours now and will go to the YMCA for lap swimming. I might snowshoe later--depends on wind chill temps.
Hope the Y water is warm! I am bundled up.. temps in the 40's here and it will get worse before it gets better.. but with the N'Easter bearing down on the east coast, I have no room to comlain!
Bye.

back, trying to get some of my last 30
I need ae8 and stats for the 4th column a. I know the ae8 goes with a 6
i have ae 6/18 not the right one i am sure?
oh, got it
you need ae 6/21
yes it is, add ending to AE 6
the 6 is an english spelling of a form of alcohol
formerly used as anesthetic
just reading the chat and chuckling --- from our perspective, any temperature above freezing is warm!
it's a hot day here today then :)
mool if you mean ae6/21 i don't have it
right, was clueing the 6
nan we haven't been even close to freezing for too long
it's about 30F here -- snow is piled up and more expected tomorrow
we'll almost get to 50F today, first time it's been over freezing for about 4 days
not good for you ski hills, mool

25 degrees right now and expecting rian
rain
and i will go to the pb .. still no idea on ae word?
ae6 is an alternative spelling of ai6
isn't that abnormally cold for you, teach?
got the ae thank you for your help and ty to morewords
yes, we get cold weather but usually not in single digits
normally, in wv they would have had snow by now as far as i know but lots of unusual low temps in many places
our weather said Charleston sc might be getting snow
we do have snow on the ground, but not really that much - but expecting some flurries tomorrow
today's temp is a little chilly for us, but the amount of snow is really unusual
*blaming it all on global warming
mlf - did you have an AE 6/18 as well as the AE 6/21?
cyber i think Mother nature isn't liking us that much lol
wv i used the clues and morewords to get the ae8 but i only have that and the ae6/18 not the 21
shorten the AE 8 to get the AE 6/21
ae6/21 .... think of the sleeping chemical and put an 'a' in front
and for ae 8/50 ... add a robot ending
got it
it would be nice to have an s

FR 6/27 that Bichon asked for - still looking for it - any clues
NI 7 - add two vowels at end of NI 5/10
ty!
yvw
FR 6/27 - looks like it would rhyme with the laughing animal
fr627...is the same as one of the f5s, but add in the r
yeah
although I don't think you pronounce the third letter, because there's an alternate spelling without it
FR 6 - alt. spelling of pl of piece that holds bottom of tongue (just in case you wanted to know - or to give another clue for the word)
ah, well there you go
now I shall be able to die in peace
still 15 to go here

FA 5 and FR 6 end with same ending as laughing animal

TY for clues below.
Except I didn't get the he8--comparative word
take the HE 7 before it and change to a compartive ending
I need the he7 first
HE 7/36 (second one) - small purple Scottish flower
HE 7/ 36 (first one) change last letter of second one
Oh, I had that he7 afterall. Now I have the he8. TY!
yvw
What is the 9?
HE 8 - not really a useable word (at least in my opinion)
Agreed.
RI 9/84 - comparative ending, the house was about to collapse because it was RI 9
I got it! Good clue.
need to start bundling up to go out to a meeting - BBL for last 13
Bye.
Tx for ri9!
Hi Une.
Hey :)
I am almost halfway. Are you back home now?
hello
Hi m9
Had to look up what that ar5 means again.
Hm. Clue for that ar5?
ends with headwear
I only know it from babble
Oh, yes, I have seen it here.
Yes, back in Nashvegas....and my daughter is back in Maine aka the North Pole! :)
Yes, we are having a frigid winter.
The high in Orono on Saturday will be ZERO!
that in6 was just a lucky monkey for me! huh.
and boy, if that isn't a specific definition
On Friday our high will be zero and Saturday minus 2. Way too cold for snowshoeing.
I don't have that word, m9.
it means "a party or reception for a newly married couple."
I have in + fa4/7, but no monkey word.
A totally hip subway token
that's the word.. I mean I monkeyed it..
ha ha
the ni7 plz
Hi nrkii. How are you doing?
ni5/10 + 2 vowels
That would be a great clue if I had an ni5 :-)
Thanks for the Ni 7, Scrabs!
Doing okay. Cold.
My toes do not like my office.

stats for the 9 please?
ri9.84
ah. thanks for ni7!
got it, thank you
ri9= the old house was ri9 than most old houses (comparative)
Think about a ri4/9 gate, then extend that word.
and thanks for the 9!
got it from the stats... had the words leading to it :)
77 left and I am done with this grid. Too much else to do. See you tomorrow.
74 left. no 8s
60 left no 8s
got one!
(looked at chat history to see stats)
Nice one!
there is an 8 which is the British spelling of a 7 (ae)
Still on my first run through...On the last A next to the bottom h at the moment.
that's where the ae comes from
I do not like ae words i do have an AE 5/10 though.
ae8 adds on to an ae6
Ah thanks..will look from that one then. I got an AT 5/10 from that one so far.
there is also an he8, more like the British grassland
Got the AE 6
got the he8. thanks!
Is it two vowels on the end?
yeah, I have the ae6 but don't see the 8
Ah add most of frozen water on the end.
Thanks, Nrkii
Add most of frozen water
and off to the PB for me... time to take a break anyways
oh yeah PB for me too!
ok.. thanks to morewords for the ae8!
a different ae6..I didn't have that one
I need one more 8
Found it!
29 left. Would normally take a break but it is getting late here. So will just keep plodding on lol
Plod, plod...plod, plod, plod
Hi, Molly :-) Has it warmed up yet? I heard it was very cold where you are.
Cold, freezing, snow on the way. GROSS
Yuck! Hope it warms up soon for you all.
mild winter..mild winter...mild winter.
I need to get back to that simple, quiet mantra. Lately it has been...WHERE IS MY FREAKING MILD WINTER!!!
Hello everyone!
Deep breath, quiet mantra
Blizzard on the way....been cooking all afternoon, thus ensuring that we will NOT lose power!
Hope you do not lose power, Car!!
I have to laugh at the media, blasting CYCLONE BOMB for the upper east coast. Run for your lives!!!
clue for the NE 4/7 please & thanks!
Around here they are very specific about using the correct meteorological term: The official term is "Bomb Cyclone" which is an explosive cyclogenesis, or bombogenesis which is actually really common. The 'bombing' occurs when a low pressure system’s central pressure falls 24 millibars in 24 hours or less.
Clearly, we are hearing very little else on the news :)
The NE 4/7 sounds like what goes with a fork to eat with.
Or ne + no **s or buts.
ahh... zoom thanks for the 2nd clue... I was thinking "spoon".. huh? lol
Honestly, I am more concerned about the high winds and losing power. We have the generator, but to then go into frigid temps if we do not have power will suck.
Most welcome, Ibuxx.
any clues needed? I'm down to 9 over here..
Car, we had 90 mph winds last night and this morning..Yuck.
Not for me, Ibuxx, but many thanks.
OMG! Are you ok? Any damage?
All fine here thank goodness. But firther north trees are down and some damage to homes and more flooding.
Further*
Good grief. I am so glad to he4 you are ok
Thanks for that very specific, and horrific explanation. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!
No kidding!
But hey, let us all be concerned about global warming. NOT
Hah! Lester Holt just said it correctly...good boy...

Good evening! back for my last 27...
TR 6/18?
NM I got it
Yes, first part of three wheeled bike and the end of the famous goose known only in this puzzle
help wth er7 pls
er+et5/14
Molly we may get 3-6" of snow tomorrow :( I am so glad that I am retired. I used to work in a hospital and hospitals are never closed so we were expected to come in
ty phan
Neither do nursing homes... I am dreading the coming weather
Your welcome, Peri.
TH 6/21 2nd one
They are guessing about how much snow will fall here. I don't venture out on slippery, snowy roads, early in the morning. Too many asswipe drivers around here.
we are expecting 12 to 16 inches tomorrow....
Frederick County isn't really supposed to get much, the more east you are the worse it will be.
yikes pen
I would never take a job that expected me to come in when weather conditions are dangerous.
and wind gusts up to 60 mph....
certainly wasn't thinking of that when I decided to go to nursing school...
floors nurses in hospitals have it really bad. if no one comes to replace them they have to work another shift. I was a social worker
and in nursing homes too
bbl
bye, peri...
so, the 2nd TH 6/21? pretty please?
th 6....definite article + the ***whal is a small whale...
Thanks, Pen!
