comment ça va?

Bonjour, JBV.

5:42 am

Je vais beaucoup mieux que l'année deriere, mais c'est seulement leprintemps que me fait sourire.

5:43 am

l'm tired, but doing OK. I thought l was fying in February, but came through the cruelwinter

5:43 am

derniere*

5:44 am

je suis très contente pour toi - excuse my rusty french

5:44 am

dying, not fying*

5:44 am

spring has finally arrived here - we had a very cold April

5:44 am

cherry trees are still pink

5:44 am

forsythia fading yellow

5:45 am

Je prends beaucoup de chemio par bouche et si ça relanter le cancer, je serai heureuse

5:45 am

vraiment de bonnes nouvelles!

5:46 am

My false cherry has carpeted the grass with a lovely layer of pink, pink snow!

5:46 am

don't know what a false cherry is, but the image is lovely

5:47 am

In a display of optimism, l (gardener) put in MANY new flowers yesterday

5:48 am

I don't have a garden, just put out some geraniums and impatiens in pots on the steps

5:48 am

but I love to see the flowers

5:49 am

lt might be a falseplumot peach, bit whatever it is, it's very beautiful when in full-flower and even after the flowers fall. By "false", l mean a fruit-resembling tree with flowers, but no fruit

5:49 am

plum or peach*

5:49 am

oh, I think I have one of those - it looks like a pear tree but has never produced one pear

5:49 am

pretty white flowers

5:50 am

lt'smy first(andlast) garden, but it's beautiful

5:50 am

I also have a magnolia on the front lawn - blossoms just falling now - last week it was gorgeous

5:51 am

l plant as much as possible on the deck, balcony and in front of the house, even tomatoes in planters

5:51 am

I might try that - hope it's not too late - I am so tired of store-bought tomatoes

5:52 am

l love magnolias but the neighbor who had a gorgeous one, cut it down when she re-built her garage.

5:52 am

mine lost a big branch during one of the crazy snow blizzards we had here - but it survived fine

5:55 am

This way l can care for them. l don't think it's toolate for tomatoes; just talk to them and keep the little interstiial shoots removed. l only plant small tomatoes on squat plants since tallones wouldn't work in pots

5:56 am

I usually pick up my plants at the Rutgers Extension sale - they usually have it around mother's day - so it's not too late

5:58 am

I'm still taking courses at Rutgers - after 13 Italian courses (!) I ran out of choices, so this year I took two French courses

6:00 am

it's still considered one of the best = especially for the price

6:00 am

did you live here?

6:00 am

in NJ?

6:01 am

My French is fluent and quick, but l think l'm left with vestiges of my first teacher's Bronx accent.

6:02 am

so funny,

6:02 am

my HS teachers were French natives

6:02 am

We lived in Princeton, at the Institute of,Advancde study for a year

6:03 am

I can read and understand everything - watch a lot of French shows - just finished season 2 of Marseille - do you know it?

6:03 am

oh Princeton - great place

6:03 am

i'm in East Brunswick

6:03 am

I get it on Netflix

6:04 am

for Advanced Study*. l loved it there in "Bamberger Heaven", but the marriage was already on the rocks.

6:05 am

Bamberger Heaven - never heard it but I get it immediately

6:05 am

l am too lazy to Watch Netflix in French. Since nobody here speaks English, l need to hear it on TV.

6:06 am

so you watch American TV?

6:06 am

l think the Bamberger family gave the first endowments (shaky on the facts, moi)

6:06 am

or BBC?

6:07 am

there was a Bambergers in East Brunswick but that was way before I moved here -

6:09 am

l get newsfromthe NYT (delivered), fromBBC and CNN. Some cable programs and English-language films and, when l'mlucky, l find series on Netflix and binge-watch, something l could never do when my husband was alive.

6:09 am

They were a wealthy old family, very philanthropic

6:10 am

yes, they also originated the WOR radio station broadcasts

6:18 am

Time to start my day - bonne journée, Ruby!

6:45 am

prey

morning all

morning Hannah :-)

ruby i know you aren't here but im pretty sure you will be here sooner or later, so I will say this now: ruby i know how to handle myself and i am not naive! i know how to distinguish friendliness from something else, i am not quick to trust someone they have to earn it, also not much of a friend if you ignore me and judge me

morning luv, also that is my soapbox

i will get off my soapbox now

7:17 am

good morning. short babble before homeroom starts

7:17 am

hit nbt, so feeling smug

7:17 am

ruby was just concerned

ok trif

okay back on my soapbox, i get that gemini, but she was quick to judge me based on my age, and that offended me

but here is my bus byeeee

happy babbling

8:31 am

gimme something I ain' got

8:32 am

Yes sorry about that. I hate it when I do that. Hope it did not spoil the fun of finding the words too much.

8:32 am

didn't spoil it for me!!!

8:33 am

I'm probably not going to be able to finish today

8:34 am

Doesn't matter if you do not finish as long as you enjoy finding the words.Although saying that.. I do get annoyed with myself if I do not finish.

8:35 am

Especially if I fall asleep before finishing.

8:35 am

thanks for the pr8 clue Luv... would NEVER have guessed or monkeyed that!!

8:36 am

te8 used to be my favorite gum flavor... I got my only cavity from chewing it too much :-)

8:37 am

Okay I will try and guess to see if you do not have this word, NatashaW. AR + three letter mans name + vowel

8:38 am

Then plural for the AR 7/36

8:38 am

Got that one...but admit to having looked at morewords

8:40 am

Morewords is a good friend :-)

8:40 am

saves much monkeying

8:44 am

3 letter man's name?

8:45 am

___ Reiner

8:45 am

___ Roy

8:46 am

9:00 am

Hello, Lynxxx. Hope you well?

9:01 am

hi Lyn - not a good time for such a biggie!! Daughter arriving soon

9:01 am

better crack open the Lickety then Flosey

9:02 am

good idea lyn, tks, my comment was a bit selfish, sorry

9:02 am

Hi Zooz - enjoying Sudoko? I am afraid I have gotten hooked over the last few weeks...I needed another 'addiction"

9:03 am

not at all Flosey - I love the big ones but they always seem to happen when you don't have time

9:04 am

too true Lyn - enjoy

9:04 am

Yes I am enjoying Sudoku! Although I do not enjoy the mediums as much as easy or expert for some reason.

9:05 am

Life always gets in the way, Flosey. Hope you have a lovely time with your daughter though!

9:05 am

absolutely Zooz, thanks

9:06 am

I had better get to bed, busy day tomorrow so I'll be hitting Lickety over my morning coffeee - nice to see you both

9:06 am

when Sudoku was all the rage or craze I tried it once and I hated it. Too frustrating for me

Sleep well, Lynxxx :-)

Hello. Welcome.

9:17 am

Time to get a bite to eat. Happy babbling everyone!

9:20 am

found a clue for the te 8 in earlier chat ty to that person who gave the clue

9:27 am

I will be back..

9:44 am

<is now making up words at this point

9:44 am

try toeberry. that might work.

9:44 am

lol ruru how many do you have left?

9:46 am

LO6?

9:46 am

72 to go.. and I am not seeing much

9:47 am

mlfan think of makeup brand

9:47 am

hi Natasha ty

9:47 am

Don't get the te8 clue - need a Brit clue!!

9:48 am

HERE is the brit clue

9:48 am

te8 - classic british drink +straw___ jam on your scone

9:48 am

coffee or t** straw***** cran*****

9:48 am

I think it is also a chewing gum

9:48 am

Thanks a lot!

9:49 am

it was, when I was in 5th grade I chewed so much I got a huge cavity.

9:49 am

but they don't make it any more

9:49 am

There was a Herb Alpert tune that went with the gum, called the "Te8 Shuffle"

9:50 am

was it the name brand or a flavor? I remember seeing it on tv and in some stores a while back

9:50 am

flavor. Brand was Clark's.

9:50 am

oh dear. I didn't have the te when I made the toeberry joke. I thought it was completely out of the range of any possible word. Sorry!

9:50 am

(loves kittychan's jokes)

9:51 am

there is no word that is not possible on babble

9:51 am

It is an alternate universe in which almost any combo of letters turns out to mean something interesting or obscure or both

9:52 am

it is pink in color but taste like wintergreen at least the ice cream its popular in Pennsylvania

9:54 am

I didn't think it was still sold anywhere!

9:55 am

Natasha the ice cream brand Turkey Hill in the US has it and another brand does too I didn't look long enough to see if you can still get the gum somewhere or not though

9:55 am

ok thanks. I believe the gum's been discontinued. Just as well for my teeth.

9:56 am

Natasha could be but ebay might have it and some obscure candy places online might have it. Google also said Walmart

9:57 am

nope, unavailable/out of stock/discontinued everywhere

9:58 am

aww bummer for you :)

9:58 am

I'll live :-)

9:59 am

are you sure?

10:00 am

this grid is frustrating

10:03 am

agreed

10:04 am

Hiyas, kiddos!

10:33 am

hi Judi

10:34 am

Hi everyone, this greid dowsn't look very user-friendly at first glance... :)

10:34 am

Hey Kate, it's a serious slog through the mud in a torrential downpour. But FUN :-)

10:35 am

Forewarned.... ty Natasha! Just having first tea One eye open.

10:37 am

Could someone clue re6,21/re7,36? That is all that stands between me and FW

10:37 am

that drink will help you later with an 8 letter word :-)

10:37 am

hahaha...oh, you're serios ;)

10:37 am

re 7/36 is one who tries to get at an object

10:38 am

Te8 fans: check out this site: https://tinyurl.com/y86gwa2p for a lovely story. The non-lovely story is that it IS available - ice cream and gum (the latter is on eBay - expensive - but the ice cream comes with a recipe and the availability of Te8 extract!

10:38 am

(fish slap)

10:38 am

no, wait, have that one. it's the later one I'm missing

10:38 am

cr 5/12 second one, pls

10:38 am

I loved te8 gum

10:38 am

and I liked the black gum too

10:39 am

me too peri! Chewed so much I made a 6-foot chain out of the wrappers

10:39 am

Black Jack gum

10:39 am

fish basket peri (cr5/12)

10:39 am

c +re4,4

10:39 am

I did not ask for it already had it but ty

10:40 am

that's the third one

10:40 am

sorry, the long necked bird

10:40 am

ty Natasha

10:41 am

sorry that was bichon who asked, peri. But you look almost identical in your icons so it's easy to confuse you two

10:41 am

there is one that uses an unusual double vowel combo.

10:41 am

peri and I are into blue flowers

10:42 am

Anybody have re6,21/7,36 sequence? That's all that's keeping me from getting back to work...

10:43 am

sorry Natasha

10:43 am

's OK bichon

10:46 am

The only Re7 I have is one who grasps at something.

10:46 am

re6,21/7,36 - to preside over a case again

10:46 am

100 left bbs.

10:46 am

Te8 extract or "flavoring"- 3-4 times stronger than extract - available online for candymaking (could use for the ice cream too). Hooray for google!

10:46 am

thx sam, I'll think about that!

10:49 am

took me a while.... but... finally understood the clue. FIREWORKS! thx all!

10:50 am

YAY Natasha!

10:50 am

YAY jwr for the research on availability of te8!

10:52 am

Congrats Natasha!

10:55 am

bichon I haven't bee able to find that yet

11:08 am

py +o+the ending for when you have to take Lomotil :-)

11:09 am

If you listen again you can re 6/21 something. The 7/36 is the past tense.

11:09 am

11:09 am

apparently it's an older term for gum disease

11:09 am

ty Natasha. Thought you were done?

11:10 am

11:28 am

matty I love strawberry and banana flavors together but with coconut milk,sugar and those two flavors sounds like it might be a bit too sweet?

11:28 am

I will let you know!

11:29 am

12:13 pm

12:14 pm

It was right at the bottom of the chog when I posted. it will have just dropped off now.

12:15 pm

PR 7/44 before + BE 4/7

1:39 pm

3:10 pm

hi all lovely day here

3:10 pm

I cannot figure out the py8

3:18 pm

py8= py+either/__+rh4,5.

3:18 pm

thank you Natasha!

3:18 pm

it's a synonym for periodontitis! who knew.

3:19 pm

*raises hand*

3:19 pm

ok, you did... gold star!

3:19 pm

hahaha

3:19 pm

I've heard of it, but was way off on the spelling. Was leaving out the O.

3:20 pm

my favorite form of that particular word formation is the one for a chatterbox - logo+the ending used here.

3:21 pm

yes... my mom would say "diarrhea of the mouth"

3:22 pm

I'm still traumatized by having been made to take Paregoric as a kid whenever I had the non-mouth kind.

3:22 pm

thankfully never had that experience

3:25 pm

well, ha dthe one experience, just not the paregoric part

3:25 pm

Turns out it's 4% tincture of opium!!

3:25 pm

My parents were drugging me :-)

3:25 pm

well, that will stop the runs... one of the few things we use it for anymore

3:25 pm

yes, bowels of iron :-)

3:26 pm

"tincture of opium" - sounds so old fashioned, like an old novel

3:27 pm

Sherlock Holmes stories

3:27 pm

haha - yes

3:28 pm

must run - meeting at 130 - bbl

3:57 pm

ls anybody here,

3:57 pm

?

4:01 pm

Hey Ruby...just popped back

4:03 pm

hi all

4:03 pm

hi!

4:04 pm

hey champ, how's your tuesday going?

4:04 pm

Pretty good...you?

4:04 pm

not too bad

4:18 pm

Ruby was not being "quick to judge". She was expressing concern about a young person playing this game and someone else asking "where is that little girl Hannah?" Maybe it is time for all the attention getting behavior to stop.

4:22 pm

Took you a while, Molly! :) I took up for her late yesterday. You're right...she was just concerned.

4:24 pm

I'm thinking Nancy Boy about the whole Hannah thing, so I thought about whether or not to respond at all. But since it keeps getting brought up over and over again, I figured why not.

4:24 pm

Really? I don't think so, but then again, I fell for the whole Nancy Boy story, so what do I know?

4:26 pm

ar7/36(I have the spanish weights)......?

4:27 pm

can you get treatment>

4:27 pm

do you have the 5/14? the 7:36 I have is "one who..."

4:27 pm

I'm with Molly on this one. I did fall for NB, but H makes comments out of context along with 'baiting' ones. Whether she/he is legit or not though, it's like any other person in our chat ... we make the choice to interact or not. :)

4:28 pm

ty Champ

4:28 pm

Np.

4:38 pm

I also fell for the whole NancyBoy thing, hook line & sinker. With hindsight, I can see that I was ( & it's a horrible word, with even more horrible connoctations) groomed. I am a lot more cautious nowadays.

4:39 pm

slow board this one

4:39 pm

The word is applicable, soodle.

evening all

Agreed mool. I keep wondering how I have 105 words left when I'm sure I've been working this grid for 2 weeks.

4:41 pm

obviously some sort of time-space trick mm

hint for pr7/44?

4:41 pm

I'm not even halfway through after 20 minutes, which is unusual for me.

4:42 pm

well it's not prebald that's for sure

4:42 pm

The whole NancyBoy/JC thing really rattled me. Hah!! Lesson learned!!

Ha! I also tried prebald

4:43 pm

also probeer is apparently not a thing

4:43 pm

I think the whole Nancy Boy/JC/Frank thing made certain observers here realize how easy it is to post with a fake identity.

lean

oops :)

4:43 pm

oh, but you apparently shape metal (or other material) before you do something with it

does anyone have pr7/44?

4:45 pm

just gave you a clue hannah

4:45 pm

HI soodle! I tried prebald too.

i didnt get it

pr + vowel + be4/7

4:45 pm

I am prebald currently, although I do need to get a haircut in my own judgement

thx

np

4:46 pm

folding before

4:46 pm

Hey Champ :-).

4:47 pm

isn't greek cereal spelled caereal? :)

apparently prebear isnt a word i tried that before the clue

4:48 pm

isn't prebald 'Hairy''?

4:48 pm

oh, like goldilocks when she fell asleep was prebear

4:48 pm

after she woke up, she would have been postbear

4:49 pm

before I started making up words, this room was prebad

4:50 pm

Prebeer made me sad. One shouldn't have to wait for a refreshing beverage.

im waiting for ruby to show up so i can get on my soapbox

4:51 pm

Why? You're beating a dead horse.

4:51 pm

I don't think I've ever seen a real soapbox

im not

i want her to hear what i have to say

I also don't know why probeer is not a word. I know many folks who are probeer

no they arent probeer they are pro beer

4:51 pm

I could be considered probeer

4:52 pm

She did. Let it go. I'm probeer!

lol

and she didn't see it

she wasn't online

4:52 pm

pro beer sounds like a professional alcoholic beverage

4:52 pm

definitely prober...

You've said a lot and I don't think she's going to listen. She has her opinion, you have yours. Let's move on.

4:53 pm

*probeer

i can't move on, until she sees it

4:53 pm

maybe if you really liked bluey-green color, you'd be proteal

And I was joking about probeer. I'm aware it is pro beer.

she really offended me with judging me too quick

4:54 pm

She saw it. We all saw it...over and over and over. And we've asked nicely for you to let it go. Please do that.

i have tried to let it go but its hard and i need to do this i need her to see it when I am online and respond to me, and she was never online when I sent it

brb got to wash something

Something you will learn as you get older, and I'm trying to teach my 18 and 19-year-olds this, is that you sometimes just have to build a bridge and get over it. Get glad in the same pants you got mad in. It's not worth the time or energy to try to change the mind of someone who isn't going to change their mind.

4:56 pm

Ruby didn't judge anything. She expressed an opinion of concern. This chat isn't about you and whether or not you can let something go. You said what you had to say. Leave it at that.

4:57 pm

Get glad in your pants! Love it magazine mom!

4:57 pm

Excellent advice, Mag Mom.

Thanks. That was one of my grandma's witticisms.

4:58 pm

Although I'm not really believing this poster is a young person at all.

4:58 pm

makes me think of some new cling-wrap product for protecting you clothing

im back

Ha!

4:59 pm

Pls Molly - stop adding fuel to the fire, it is unwarranted

and i know that Mag Mom, but, im not trying to change her mind, i want her to hear my opinion and respond to it

Molly I am young

i would make my profile picture of myself but that would make me easy to find

5:00 pm

Along with "dance with who brung you" and "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit"!

Love those too, champ.

i am 14 years old, i was born on july 13 2003, and you can't find me by that because there was lots of people born that day

5:01 pm

I am not adding fuel to the fire. I am chatting with others who are discussing this.

I am just trying to make a point, thats all

Molly, its okay if you don't believe I am a young person, but I am

5:02 pm

I remember the name Nancy Boy, but no specifics. Can I ask what happened without causing distress?

Remember when we used to come to Babble for the words, the fun and the camaraderie?

5:03 pm

It was in a galaxy far, far away....

5:03 pm

I've seen little bits of snark here and there but I didn't know that things sometimes got ugly.

5:03 pm

chog needs a mute feature

5:04 pm

Im going to start making up words again

5:04 pm

not sure that's any better

5:04 pm

Molly - you brought this up again (out of the blue). I personally am over it.

Molly I seen what you said earlier, I am not just trying to get attention, and yes she was quick to judge me by my age, she said i was naive and could distinguish between someone being nice and something else, I can, I am not quick to trust people

Ty lynxx.

5:06 pm

kitty, back in the day when we all still trusted that people online were who they said they were, most of us were quite taken with a player who called himself Nancy Boy. Turned out to be a poser. Since then, there have been others. Bottom line (I think) is it doesn't matter to me whether someone is a poser or not --- I make my own choice to interact with specific players or not.

5:06 pm

No, it wasn't out of the blue. It was in response to the constant posts about Ruby not responding.

5:07 pm

And CH1212 has the best words about how to deal with it.

5:08 pm

Thanks. Was it for sport or was s/he trying to take advantage in a more substantial way?

5:09 pm

We were told (by "him") that he was very ill, and then later that he'd died.

5:09 pm

Some have been for sport, some for building a pseudo relationship that some babblers actually sent money to.

5:10 pm

That's a shame.

Molly it wasn't constant

5:10 pm

That whole money rip-off thing is something else that happened here that was sad beyond belief.

it was only twice it happened

time for dinner :)

5:11 pm

75 left - bbl

im back :)

it might show me online but its because i keep the window open on my chromebook, well im am gonna go..... *POOF*

6:12 pm

Looks on line to buy glad pants

6:13 pm

I need happy pants too.

6:13 pm

I think you can find them right next to the "big girl pants" and "big boy pants" : D

6:15 pm

I pose in my glad pants.

6:16 pm

Do you get paid for that, Harry?

6:16 pm

eery

6:16 pm

I do it for the sheer joy.

6:16 pm

yes it is.

hi all, im back to attempt to finish my 136 words, what did i walk into?

6:16 pm

Harry! You get the Babble tiara today. You are in the grid. Try posing in that.

6:16 pm

kind of nauseating too.

6:17 pm

woohoo

6:17 pm

Haha, Harry.

6:17 pm

Do glad pants have zippers?

thx for the free word harry :)

6:17 pm

mine fit me like a flesh tuxedo.

6:18 pm

*flushed and sweating now*

6:19 pm

takes a nasty comment like that to kill the chog :)

6:19 pm

Are they the male version of glad rags, Harry

6:19 pm

Adjusts scrabs hormones

6:19 pm

I dunno - I need to look up all these newfangled expressions on urbandictionary

6:20 pm

I spend much time there translating my students' comments.

6:21 pm

*waits for harry to say hi bruh*

6:23 pm

I need some good laughs, Harry, and am on the phone with my mother now.

6:24 pm

my kid used to think that when we sat in the bleechers it was "blee-chairs"

lol

*doesn't hear harry say hi bruh and decides to say it" hi bruh

lol

6:26 pm

I can't even remember the word of the day half the time.

lol

6:28 pm

6:28 pm

6:29 pm

Oh, no, cosdem.

6:30 pm

my husband is dying

6:30 pm

hes only 34.

oh no

what happened?

6:31 pm

alcoholic .

6:31 pm

Keep him comfortable and peaceful. Tell him that he can let go. Talk to him. And for you, you will be numb for weeks. Too tragic.

oh i have kinda had thtat=

6:32 pm

so sorry cos :(

opps

oh i have kinda had that in the family, but it was smoking

my grandpa, he smoked a lot, he got stage four lung cancer small cell, we didn't know until it was too late :(

but he died a christian, im glad of that, he had refused to go to church before that, refused to become a christian

i agree with Scrabbs, you will be numb for weeks

6:34 pm

how's the cdiff patient?

6:35 pm

havent headd a nything

I was numb for months, but that was probably because I lost all my grandparents within months of each other, well the living ones, my grandma on my dad's side died before I was born

cdiff paitent?

6:36 pm

you've got your hands full with emotional crap.

me? that was years ago

although you never really get over it

6:37 pm

Cos, I'm with you in spirit. Saying prayers for a peaceful passing for Ryan and lots of love and support for you.

Me too

6:38 pm

I lit a candle for you two, Cos. I hope some of its light finds its way to you.

6:38 pm

I just dont know what to do

6:38 pm

thanks Molly

6:40 pm

one day at a time I guess. you get used to a new normal.

6:42 pm

Hold his hand and see him out Cos. That is all you can do. He is lucky to have you by his side.

i have no candles or i would do that

6:43 pm

what Molly said, cos.

yea what they said

and i meant i would light a candle for you if i had one

6:43 pm

may the love you share help you through this most difficult time.

6:44 pm

I will be with you also Cos. I lost my husband 19 years ago. Being there with him when he passed was very difficult, but I wouldn't have had it any other way. I like to think I made it a little easier.

sorry had to do something, im back now

6:51 pm

hello everyone --- a gorgeous spring day here - hope everyone else was as lucky

i know this isnt exactly the same, but i had a cat die exactly a week before christmas eve 2 years ago, i was there at her side the exact moment she died, i cried so hard my nose bled, that was the start of my nose problems that led to me having to have surgery (irrelevant part)

6:52 pm

No, it is not the same at all.

6:52 pm

omg hannah do you ever stop before you speak?

i know its not but the attachment is

6:52 pm

No, it's not Hannah

6:53 pm

hes my husband. my dog died 3 years ago. it was hard but hes my husband

6:53 pm

my soulmate

6:53 pm

the only one who understands me.

6:53 pm

hug.

6:54 pm

I cannot fathom how difficult this is for you.

6:55 pm

That is the hardest part Cos. Losing the person who knows you the best.

sorry i guess im not good at comforting, i think im just gonna go....

6:56 pm

agreed Molly

before i go im just gonna say this, im sorry if i made things worse and well im just gonna go now bye :(

7:00 pm

im sorry im just really pissed off at the whole situation hannah

hi all, oh i just seen, i'm sorry cos

7:02 pm

there is no slander - no, no, no

Huh?

Oh.

7:05 pm

I don't think Nan pays attention to what is going on in chat. She was referring to a word that is not in the grid.

7:07 pm

I have been following the chat --- I just don't know what else I can say, cos, that I haven't said before - my heart weeps for you

7:07 pm

Cos, you have every right to be angry and you owe no apologies to anyone who makes inappropriate remarks about what is going on with you.

7:09 pm

someone texted me from work saying "dont buy oreos for this one kid" and CC'd my boss. i texted back saying fk off i dont care about oreos

7:09 pm

i feel bad now

7:09 pm

cos, my heartrfelt condolences. It is horrid to lose your partner in life.

7:09 pm

and hi all

7:10 pm

hi sprite

7:10 pm

hiya nan

Btw, Hannah is a friend of mine. I am only saying that because she is wanting me to ask you guys a question. She wants to know, did she make it worse?

No idea what she made worse she didn't explain.

7:13 pm

not the time nor the place to go into that, I think, SudokuA.

Okay.

She just wanted to know, no idea what about.

7:14 pm

I realize its awkward topic.

7:14 pm

This needs to stop being "The All About Hannah Show"

Okay. She is making my phone buzz bad, she wants to know the answer. Sorry to bug.

7:15 pm

not really, cos. It is a good topic. One of us is hurting. I know it is no solace at all, but we do want you to know we care.

7:16 pm

she was trying to express her sympathy and understanding to cos -- but hannah is very young and I think we have to give her a pass because she is too young to possibly understand the anguish that cos is experiencing right now.

7:16 pm

I hope it is some solace. Sometimes knowing that people care is a comfort.

I don't if I am included in that we since I am new, but I care.

7:16 pm

I know people care but I am sorry you guys aren't Ryan/

7:17 pm

exactly. I think Molly is right, it is important to know people do care. But it will not change the hurt and the emptiness.

7:17 pm

Understandable Cos. You are going through your toughest time and you don't have the person you love the most to lean on.

Nan, I know Hannah well. She doesn't know the anguish of losing a husband, because she has never had one, either have I. But she knows the anguish of losing someone super close to her.

7:18 pm

Well she compared losing my husband to losing a cat

7:18 pm

SudokuA, let's stop talking about Hannah and focus on cos instead, please

Yea, well she was super close to that cat. I know which cat you are talking about.

Sorry sprite.

7:19 pm

Good morning all and hugs Sprite and Cos

7:19 pm

I agree with Sprite. Again, this is not "The All About Hannah Show"

7:19 pm

hiya Liz, *hugs* to you and your beloved.

Wish I was there to hug you.

7:19 pm

Lots of "feeding" in today's chat!

7:20 pm

methinks there is no more to say about Hannah. She barely plays and SudokuAddict#1 does not play at all.

Hannah plays everyday. I know she tells me about it everyday.

7:20 pm

What the hell do I do?

7:20 pm

Sorry to read the latest news Cos - waiting and knowing is so hard.

I don't know cos.

7:21 pm

It's hard cos. Many of us have gone through something like you are going through. It seems impossible but you WILL come through.

7:22 pm

I think it's time to stop feeding the trolls.

7:22 pm

it is a tough road to travel, cos. And impossible to give advice on, I am so sorry. Just take it a day at a time... an hour at a time... sometimes it may be all you can do to take it 5 minutes at a time.

7:22 pm

It's all been said Cos. Wish there was more to say but you'll go on because Ryan would want you to.

7:22 pm

amen, Liz and Harry and Molly.

I agree with Liz.

Also, I've told Hannah what you guys said as an answer to her question, and she told me she doesn't think she will play anymore because everyone here hates her. Okay I'm done talking about Hannah now.

7:23 pm

Cosdem, as doc, I have witnessed far too much dying and death, including a close friend and my father. Be present with your pain, sadness, anger, and confusion. Hold Ryan's hand, talk to him. Tell him that he can let go and that you will be alright, because ultimately you WILL be alright although the grief journey is painful.

7:23 pm

And Cos, you know we're all here for you, always.

7:23 pm

*missing an ignore button on babble*

7:23 pm

*as a doctor

7:24 pm

hes only 34.... rhow do i do this

7:24 pm

Ha Ha, Sprite

I honestly don't know cos.

7:24 pm

You honor him by being present for him as he crosses over. Tell him you love him and that he can let go. He needs to hear that.

7:24 pm

Slowly, slowly cos. As Sprite said, sometimes only 5 minutes at a time.

7:25 pm

I advise SA#1 and Hannah to read through the chog, for a few weeks, and try to get a feel for how this group operates. After you get an idea of what makes us tick, THEN enter into the conversation.

7:25 pm

it is so unfair, cos, and heartbreaking. I think Scrabs just said some good stuff... and we know it is so hard that you cannot imagine you can do it. But you can and will.

7:26 pm

My mom died when I was 12 - my uncle said to me to remember her as she had been when she was healthy, not as she was then. Try to cherish the good memories even as you grieve.

7:26 pm

Im sorry for keeping bringing this up

7:26 pm

It is because you love Ryan that you hold him and speak to him whether he acknowledges you or not. Do not fight your feelings. Let them be.

I told Hannah that and she says she knows how it operates, but now I am sad, too. I think I will just not talk anymore, I will finish this puzzle and you won't see me or Hannah again. Me and Hannah both say good luck to cos, and we're sorry.

7:26 pm

cos, please bring it up as often as you want. We cannot take away the pain, but we can be here for you. Whenever you want us to.

7:26 pm

No one minds, Cos. We know you love Ryan and that's why it hurts so much.

7:26 pm

cos - if it helps, we are here to help you

7:27 pm

Don't be sorry Cos. You are trying to get support wherever you can find it. People here are willing to try and help you out, in whatever way they can.

7:28 pm

{{{(((cos)))}}} Minute by minute, hour by hour, cos. So yur best to stay in the here and now. Do what you can in this oment. Don't concern yourself with anything but the absolute present. You will get through this. Be kind to yourself. Forgive yourself. We are here for you.

7:28 pm

hiya Kate

7:29 pm

Cosdem, it is surreal and deeply unsettling, but be there for Ryan and appreciate the honor of being with someone when they die. That may sound awful, but it is an honor and privilege to be present.

7:30 pm

hi spritey :)

7:30 pm

May you know no more sorrow like this sorrow Cos.

7:30 pm

I apprciate it people

7:32 pm

hi all. clues and stats for the 8s please.

7:32 pm

7:33 pm

7:33 pm

7:36 pm

Some new words for me! Thanks

7:37 pm

Cos, you know I'm not on Facebook. So either get back into your old email or let me know if you set up a new one so we can converse about this beyond Babble chat.

7:37 pm

Was wondering - is it possible to bring his dog for the night. I think it would help

7:37 pm

10.36 in the morning here, so need to get the day going. Have a good day / evening / night. My thoughts are with you cos. Hugs, Sprite.

7:37 pm

his mom just got a new puppy so nmo

7:37 pm

no i mean

7:37 pm

ok I will molly I will

I haven't finished but I'm gonna go now, but first I have something to say, I lied, I am not Hannah's friend, I am Hannah, I'm sorry to everyone, everyone here hates me, I'm sorry, I tried to comfort, I tried to make a point, I'm sorry that I couldn't do any of that, good luck cos with the grief, I know how it feels to lose someone super close to me, and it is hard, well goodbye forever

7:38 pm

have a terrific day, Liz *hugs*

7:38 pm

SA#1 my email is in my profile if you want to discuss it further. I agree it's not appropriate for the chog

7:39 pm

go to hell hannag

7:40 pm

no surprise there. Let's hit the ignore button.

7:40 pm

Sorry you are having to deal with this extra shit cos...

7:41 pm

we had so much plans together

7:41 pm

I'm off. Cosdem, I hope you get some sleep tonight, and find some peace soon.

7:41 pm

cos, same goes for me. Email addy in profile, and whenever you want to rant or whatever, I am here

7:42 pm

cos, in general you should be extra careful of scam artists and new-found "best friends". My mother got calls from several after her husband passed away.

7:43 pm

cos, now is not the time...but in the future you need to make some of those plans you had come to fruition. It will be a good thing for you. Hold those dreams close for now.

7:45 pm

wow, those 8s were tough to find

7:47 pm

cos - you are more than welcome to email me also.

I'm only here to say one thing, to harp, then I will be gone forever, your email isn't in your profile, just two links

7:51 pm

me too. or FB chat.

7:53 pm

fireflies. Quite a few new words for me, interesting grid. Bye all, am gonna try and catch some zzzzzs. Cos, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Both of you are.

10:27 pm

10:28 pm

Natasha "fish" is a common word that you just don'e see.

10:28 pm

somewhat along the lines of the wolf's less dangerous cousin

10:28 pm

rhymes with hallucinogen

10:28 pm

ch4,8+sing a false n___

10:28 pm

10:28 pm

i don't KNOW another word for fen so i may or may not have that

10:29 pm

ca 6/33 - a large glass jug

10:29 pm

Hope it doesn’t bog you down hursh

10:29 pm

marsh moor bog mire... nothing with a c

10:30 pm

it is very obscure. There's a town in North Carolina near Raleigh/Durham (UNC) called Ca4,4boro

10:30 pm

ohhhh my

10:30 pm

it WAS fishy

10:31 pm

it was the christmas song

10:31 pm

ah, so that was it! sometimes the bleedin' obvious is the last to surface

10:31 pm

don't you all just hate me now

10:31 pm

fa la l la la la la la laH!

10:32 pm

I'm just hoping you got all 42 b words...

10:32 pm

Natasha...THAT was a FIDH/FISHY/FISHIE ;)

10:32 pm

:-)

10:32 pm

haha no i am missing two of them but i do not wish to burden anyone further than they wish to be burdened

10:32 pm

o and i just found one of them! it was SUPER fishy

10:33 pm

So, if someone asks if the word is fishy... they aren't talking gills ;)

10:33 pm

It's fun to try to guess which ones are missing, only often it turns out to be the easy ones.

10:33 pm

correct, kate

10:33 pm

yes I know Kate! those are the fish

10:33 pm

it is because we used to hit ourselves with fish if we felt stupid for missing an easy word

10:34 pm

If it amkes you feel better, I got the Xmas song very lat as well...

10:34 pm

The famed "fish slap".. :D

10:34 pm

now my lowest percentage is S, i have 6/9

10:34 pm

only problem is, sometimes the word IS an actual FISH, as in ca4,6

10:34 pm

yeah, that can be confusing, but you just say, an actual fish.

10:35 pm

It makes ME feel better Kate as that was my very last "find" in the c column

10:35 pm

i KEEP WANTING salad to be a word in the grid but it AIN'T

10:35 pm

ty natasha

10:35 pm

I think taht is how it term fish actually arose... someone was missing a common fish and the term stuck :)

10:35 pm

yw but I forget for what :-)

10:36 pm

i love seafood

10:37 pm

fish slap is from Monty Python, no? Isn't there a dance?

10:37 pm

It was before my time... fish was already eastablished when I stumbled upon Babble.

10:37 pm

ditto

10:37 pm

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fish\n-Slapping_Dance

10:38 pm

Michael Palin slaps John Cleese with pilchards. They're wearing khaki and pith helmets.

10:38 pm

oh another low percentage for me is the left A where i only have 3/5

10:38 pm

Was that person floundering tk?

10:39 pm

no he was getting along swimmingly ruru

10:39 pm

I love the fish slap dance... the pythons rule <3

10:40 pm

Would you believe my dog is yelling at us to stop the nonsense with the Internet and go to bed?! She's like the dog in Peter Pan.

10:40 pm

nana

10:40 pm

oh gawd.... I am tired nad hungry ruru, cannot possibly come up with a decent pun to throw in the pile. tme to eat dinner at a ridiculous hour..then bed I am wiped.

10:40 pm

Did the word finally spawn on them then?

10:41 pm

no, because they'd been following a red herring clue

10:42 pm

Just for the halibut?

10:42 pm

that's out of plaice, ruru.

10:42 pm

this is a PG-13 room.

10:44 pm

Oh yeah I forgot we have 14 year old players here now

10:44 pm

Well she may be gone... at least for now... there was a bit of a to-do earlier this eve.

10:45 pm

bex'll be a grown-up lady now... sigh

10:46 pm

Speaking of 14... 14 minutes till midnight here. Night all!

10:47 pm

so i have 2 ac4 and ar5/10 from the left A... IF you know what else is from there... lemme know

10:48 pm

What is the next creation going to be?

10:49 pm

is that a clue?

10:49 pm

No

10:49 pm

Ae words hursh

10:51 pm

possibly AR words too

10:54 pm

well i have a number of ae and ar words coming from the OTHER a's

10:54 pm

definitely AR words from left A

10:55 pm

for instance all the words related to length x width are from the RIGHT a

10:55 pm

where do gladiators fight?

10:55 pm

yes that one i do have

10:56 pm

so there's just the two AC?

10:56 pm

and no AH or AY ?

10:56 pm

2 AC, yes

10:57 pm

no AY

10:57 pm

no AH

10:57 pm

ok so there just must be other ar and ae, sigh

10:58 pm

arr.... sp weight

10:58 pm

sp as in spanish?

10:59 pm

3 x AE total

10:59 pm

ok so not AE then

10:59 pm

yes, spanish... eating with left typing wuth right...

11:00 pm

the sp. weight also takes a pl,

11:01 pm

curses on me for taking french

11:01 pm

google translate not helping

11:01 pm

:D

11:01 pm

how long of a word are we talking here

11:01 pm

it is an old specific weight. nor general word for weight

11:02 pm

ar 6/24

11:03 pm

a Spanish and Portuguese unit of weight of varying value, equal to 25.37 pounds avoirdupois (9.5 kilograms) in Mexico and to 32.38 pounds avoirdupois (12 kilograms) in Brazil.

11:03 pm

do you have the ae 7?

11:03 pm

more googling led to a wikipedia page that helped, thanks kate! lol

11:03 pm

i am officially done with A words

11:04 pm

if you do cardio and burn fat you are doing AE********

11:04 pm

and there doesn't seem to be an ae7 among them, just ae6

11:05 pm

just the ae 6.

11:06 pm

i prefer phalangeal exercises

11:06 pm

are the pr 7's and 8 before something?

11:07 pm

they both start with that but the 7 doesn't technically MEAN that, it is a church official

11:07 pm

both are before words

11:07 pm

and the second pr7 is a science word

11:08 pm

futurama robot?... well, most of him.

11:08 pm

for the 7

11:08 pm

mmm - not preacher and not prelate

11:09 pm

found the 7/32, ty

11:09 pm

well now that i think about it, you might have to stick -ary on it to mean the PERSON, the 7 might be the word for the office that the person holds

11:10 pm

yeah it's the office or the stipend, when you add -ary it is the person

11:10 pm

not an official or office I am familiar with

11:10 pm

before kidneys?

11:10 pm

and kate's is the 8

11:11 pm

ok cnan, alt clue - a pipe that is already in an L shape when you get it, somebody must have had to ............. it

11:12 pm

what all of this goes to show, cnan, is that you need to read anthony trollope's barchester series of novels :)

11:12 pm

ty hursh -- what church has that as an office?

11:12 pm

anglican

11:12 pm

trollope will fill you in on lots o' obscure old anglican Stuff

11:12 pm

lol hurshy, so true!

11:13 pm

the pipe word is an anglican church official? -- new one for me

11:13 pm

so sad that they only made the first couple into BBC shows - they should have done the whole series while they were at it

11:13 pm

mo nan

11:14 pm

just need the 8 now

11:14 pm

like they did for the palliser novels

11:14 pm

before + be 4/7

11:14 pm

pr8, that was kate's clue - before kidneys

11:15 pm

only thing I can think of is preorgans and that's not there

11:16 pm

if your kidneys stop working they call it ________ failure

11:16 pm

oh --- duh, got it - ty hursh and kate

11:16 pm

what's ned. word for kidney and its system...

11:16 pm

my little rilla roo is SO DARLING

11:16 pm

if you were here you would probably just explode from seeing her cuteness

11:17 pm

:D <3

11:18 pm

that's her in my pic

11:18 pm

when she was a wee lil thing

11:18 pm

she's still fairly wee

11:18 pm

on account of being a bottle baby

11:19 pm

she's yoyes adorbs.... as the kids say!

11:19 pm

we fight a lot

11:20 pm

ummm. that's *totes* adorbs.

11:20 pm

i say "you are a darling baby roo"

11:20 pm

and she says "no, i am a grown-up sophisticated lady cat"

11:20 pm

"i am elegant and dignified"

11:20 pm

haha... how old is she?

11:21 pm

about one and a half

11:21 pm

and what is her proper name...

11:21 pm

Rilla

11:21 pm

short for Marilla the Miracle Kitten

11:22 pm

LOL... Marilla for me, will always be Anne of Green Gables aunt :)

11:23 pm

yes, well, she is named indirectly for that Marilla

11:23 pm

you see, Anne named her youngest daughter Bertha Marilla Blythe, after her birth mom and Marilla, and the 8th and final book in the series focuses on that daughter, who goes by Rilla. my Rilla is named for that daughter, and so at second hand for Marilla Cuthbert.

11:24 pm

I like mieacle kitten - so sweet!

11:25 pm

ha! you have been "outed" as an ANNE FAN :D

11:25 pm

she WAS a miracle kitten. a driver on a road saw something fall from the clutches of a bird of prey. upon investigation, it turned out to be two tiny kittens. as it happened to be the road on which is an animal shelter, they popped them over there. they estimated that they had been born that day or the day before. a vet tech took them home to foster. one did not make it due to perhaps too much injury, but Rilla did.

11:26 pm

and so, that is why she is on the small side. mama's milk makes ya grow more.

11:27 pm

how sweet! so this was how you came to bottle feeding the little princess...

11:27 pm

and i have never remotely wished to hide my anne fandom

11:27 pm

i did not bottle feed her myself. by the time they put her up for adoption she was old enough to eat regular food.

11:27 pm

I also adore The Anne ;)

11:28 pm

and i am merely the lucky adopter of this miraculous darling ball of cuteness

11:28 pm

Hi again; I had to tend to my laundry (why oh why does laundry & cooking never end???)

11:28 pm

oops 160 to go and 32 minutes....

11:28 pm

i'm rereading the anne right now, too! currently on book 6.

11:28 pm

go jane, go

11:29 pm

you are luchy indeed, hurshy! looks super cute!

11:30 pm

Hi Nef... it *never* ends... just accept it and keep plugging ;)

11:30 pm

Is anyone here who has had a broken leg or ankle? I get my cast off Thursday after 7 weeks of no weight bearing. I'm getting nervous.

11:32 pm

not me, but likely to need the help of vrutches or cane for a bit... phisio wull be needed - muscle atrophies very quickly... that I can attest to after knee surgery

11:32 pm

will you be getting some physio when the cast is removed, harp?

11:32 pm

I know I will get PT but don't know the schedule yet.

11:32 pm

harp; you have kept active in spite of your injury. They will have you do physical therapy; you will do well. (I went through 3 foot surgeries due to an on-the-job injury; ruined my ability to work in hospitals because I can't stand on my foot for more than 2 hours)

11:34 pm

It took over 1 1/2 years to heal & return to normal. :-/

11:34 pm

I have tried to stay active but my leg is literally rattling around in the cast. It's going to look like a toothpick!

11:35 pm

LOL! It will recover! And you will be amazed how fast that muscle returns!

11:35 pm

I'm hearing from friends to expect at least 9 months before it feels normal.

11:35 pm

I broke it the day after I bought a ski pass for next year. I'm hoping....

11:35 pm

it will jane, don't be alarmed... or in a hurry. it took years for me to getback full muscle on quads... thigh.

11:35 pm

"isn't it ironic... dontcha think?"

11:36 pm

have never had a broken leg, but have had 2 knee replacements -- doing the daily exercises is very important for a good recovery - you may find that you need a cane for a while until the muscles strengthen

11:36 pm

you WULL sku. no worries

11:36 pm

It all depends on how extensive the break was. Was it a clean break, straight across the bone (well, more or less straight)?

11:37 pm

hurshy's channeling again ;) let's all have a jagged littlr pill

11:37 pm

I agree with Kate. Where is the injury, upper or lower leg?

11:38 pm

well come on, the DAY AFTER buying a ski pass? that IS ironic

11:39 pm

jane, I had a bad physio experience that made me worse and hindered my recovery... so we can chat a bit about wht should and should not be happening... but not tonight.

11:39 pm

And I've had a knee replacement too; the knee replacement was harder than the hip replacement; the first foot surgery wasn't bad at all.

11:40 pm

te 8 please

11:40 pm

knees are the toughest. very tricky!

11:41 pm

coffee, ___, opr mje?

11:41 pm

do you feel like the tin woodsman?

11:41 pm

compound word, nan, a drink plus a straw***** milkshake

11:42 pm

ad a small, juicy, group of summer fruits like straw_____ jam

11:42 pm

hurshy, I certainly sound like himsome days! ;-)

11:42 pm

ty nef - am so tire I can hardly see straight, but want to get the last 5

11:43 pm

go nanm go! w will spoonfeed!

11:44 pm

my grandmother had a stroke some years back. my grandfather was caring for her, with my mom's help. my grandfather died recently of cancer. i feel so badly for my grandmother. can't do anything for herself, now her husband is gone ...

11:45 pm

(((hurshy))) that's so sad.

11:46 pm

it's definitely sad when "improved" medical care just means a really sucky end of life for a lot of people. hundred years ago she would have died from the stroke, have lived a happy and full life, bing bang boom. but now we can "save" people...

11:46 pm

Awww geez! So sorry to hear this hurshy... they mustboth be a rope old age! what will happen to gran now?

11:46 pm

think I'm going to need it! - stuck othe last 3 ye's

11:47 pm

Is she paralyzed on one side? Can she talk okay? and how is her memory?

11:47 pm

20 minutes nan..

11:47 pm

got the 7 - definitely 2 words

11:47 pm

where is granny hurshy?

11:47 pm

well she's still living in the addition they put onto my parents' house. mom's working on arranging for more paid help caring for her. idk whether she'll go on for years or if losing papa will spur the end

11:48 pm

papa died very recently?

11:48 pm

ye 5 please?

11:48 pm

she can talk, her memory varies, but she can't walk, or go to the bathroom, or shower, she can KINDA eat with a special plate, as long as you cut it up good... yeah he died... last month?

11:49 pm

ye5 i have a tea called ye5 Mate but i have never seen the word in any other context...

11:49 pm

starts like the mongolian tent... ends in yab** dabba do!

11:50 pm

all she does pretty much is sit in a chair and watch tv a lot, i think

11:50 pm

It's a broken fibula, the small bone in the leg. It is very near the ankle but none of the ankle bone broke. It was not a really clean break so I needed a plat and 5 screws. But I don't think any tendons or ligaments were torn

11:50 pm

i looked up the ye5 hurshy and it is spanish slang for mate

11:50 pm

*!*~*!* thank you thank you --- whew!

11:50 pm

OH that's cool ursh, so it's like a double-thingy

11:50 pm

Sorry to hear that hurshy, blessings

11:51 pm

hurshy, she mae it thropugh a month... she's not following papa so soon , methinks. sorry to hear she needs so much help. physio and more home care. g;ad she is where you can keep an eye on her and any outside caregivers

11:51 pm

I'm sorry for prying, hurshy. Does your mom have respit care (someone who comes in and cares for your grandma so your mom can have a break?

11:52 pm

she has a little nef, she's working on arranging more, figuring out a good schedule.

11:52 pm

and they are going to put her in a nursing home place for a few days later this month so they can go to my cousin's wedding

11:52 pm

Congratulations nan!

11:53 pm

i have 10 left

11:53 pm

it's off to bed for me - have a good night everyone and good luck with the leg, harp.

11:54 pm

been lazily finding words here and there, rather than getting the list

11:54 pm

that's good. There is a thing called palliative care; it's not hospice, and it's not like making someone try to get better; but rather to just help a person be comfortable at where they are (near the end of life)

11:54 pm

list and you can finish

11:54 pm

yeah, they had that for papa in the last bit of his life

11:54 pm

Harp, if you didn't damage the ligaments & tendons, that's great!

11:55 pm

nobody is trying to help her get better but like, she's lived for what, like, 9 years since the stroke i think? so physically there doesn't seem to be any reason to think she is VERY near the end.

11:55 pm

Good Night, nan! Sleep well!

11:55 pm

it's good that you have some place for her just for a few days.... probably doesn't happen often that whole house is gone and can'r care for her. could try out a fes in home care people at your leisure

11:56 pm

wonder why they didn't set up physio for her?

11:56 pm

Dh's aunt had end-stage heart failure and just wanted to "be" and not do the cardiac training, etc. And she was afraid of the whole hospice thing. But Palliative care worked great for her.

11:56 pm

they tried kate but she was already like 80, she just didnt' really have it in her to get back to the point of walking, which they had initially hoped would be possible

11:57 pm

luckily on my dad's side i've got some genetic potential for an aortic dissection, which is one of the quickest deaths you can get, so i'm keeping my fingers crossed for that one

11:58 pm

I see hurshy, that is sad... but at least she has the family... if she was all alone she would have either made herself walk again or given up - and she's still here,s so that's good.

11:58 pm

i'm bored enough with life in my prime, can't imagine dealing with that

11:58 pm

lol, love the dark humout... if you're gonna go, do it quickly and be done with it...

11:59 pm

last clue hurshy?

11:59 pm

nah

11:59 pm

hurshy, aortic dissections are most common in men than in women. It is a quick way to go; but if it's a slow dissection, it can be pretty painful for an hour or so.

11:59 pm

dunno what i need

11:59 pm

never got the list

11:59 pm

proteas

11:59 pm

an hour i can take.

12:00 am

orache

12:00 am

have that :)

12:00 am
