bonjour
another sunny day in Paradise!
Are there cheeseburgers...in paradise? : D
Oh happy day!
Is that Champ, strapping in for a big grid kind of day?
Yes! I'm so happy that I'll actually have the time to pick at it today. Made me smile!
With the heat being what it is, most will gladly stay indoors and do such things than go outside and wilt.
Of course it's all fun and games till you get down to the last 50 or so. I remain hopeful, for now!
We're going to see Chicago and REO Speedwagon tonight. Gonna be a lot of gray hair at this one!
Ah, Chicago and The Beach Boys was one of my first concerts. Have fun.
Thanks. Can't tell you the last one he went to. I'm looking forward to it.

Doren is in the grid today. Someone pass her the Babble tiara if she stops by. : )
is there a list in anyone's profile? I'm getting an error message when I try to access Lickety's list...... thanks!
Are you using the link at the bottom of the grid for Lickety's list. It is coming up okay for me. Maybe try another browser.
hi Molly, yes the link at the bottom of the page - i'll try another browser, let's see
no, same result - that's weird
I would try the usual suspects. Shut down, and come back up. Clear cache and cookies. Something is in your way.
jbv! it's been a long time. hope you are well.
hi TO! -- unfortunately, I have no idea about cache or cookies - my computer was restarted yesterday so that may have something to do with it
all well here, TO , how's by you?
if you have the list open, can you copy and paste the url here - maybe that will work
all is well.
http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
What error message are you getting?
And if you are using a MAC it could be other issues that I know nothing about.
nope, Lickety is not working for me today - This site can’t be reached r46.me’s server IP address could not be found. Search Google for r46 me Babble Clues ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

Hi, peri! =) Yeah, I seldom chat any more these days.
Failing to do housework is one of my hobbies too!
hobby? habit more like for me, peri
lol! It's really getting out of hand here, though, I'm sorry to say.
it is too hot to clean.that is my excuse and I am sticking to it
Sounds legit.
i live alone and the cat doesn't care if i clean or not
lol shirl
as long as i feed her on time, she's a great roommate
I live with two teenagers, a husband, and a cat. I wish they all cared just a little more!
which re does the 7 come from?
shirl what does your cat do if you don't feed her on time if it hasn't happened?
whines and whines and whines .....
like i'm starving her or something
lol our cat was just in the kitchen with hubby she wanted to be petted
leas
oops
and she was also meowing
My cat is starving to death ALL THE TIME to hear her tell it.
shirl yes they do that don't they?:)
I miss my cat. Hoping to get another one soon.
yeah, right? i get close to the fridge and she's RIGHT there
LOL Shirl
what do you folks feed your cats, dry or wet food?
shirl when my husband isntin the kitchen i have problems like that with my cat too both with the fridge and a door where we keep human snacks. she is so curious i guess lol
peri my cat eats mostly dry but will meow her head off until we feed her the soft food
ditto on the wet food
vicuna just something about being in a kitchen and a cat wanting food or just attention you just never know:)
Ours just gets dry, plus occasional treats.
my husband stopped giving her the wet food since she was eating the dry more often but had to give her the soft again as she kept begging for it
your cat and mine must be related vicuna
i think all cats tho i noticed an aversion to "beef" for the wet food for mine
i couldn't believe it
she actually won't eat the wet food if there's beef
our cat doesn't eat seafood cat food
Who knows, it's always possible, Natasha! Ours has to get her food on a timer because otherwise she's gobble it ALL, unlike other cats who just eat a little at a time. Hmm, I don't think ours has ever encounters wet food with beef, Shirl, so I can't give you any data to add to your study.
our cat likes beef cat food
i have had 3 cats and this is the only one who has been picky about her wet food
i can talk cats all day but i better head out to pick up some food before it gets too hot

bye shirl
Bye, Shirlock

hi origami, Vicuna, ru,kje
hi bichon
Hello, all.
I have a vascular range for punning in all subjects
The heart of the matter is, you're just pulsing with fun, ruru.
it just goes to show you can't plasma everyone
You're a veritable hemo-goblin.
are you trying to needle me ?
morning ms ori
Howdy ru - gonna be a cooker today
all this laughing has made me lymph :D
I thought you wanted to give Babble a transfusion of humor.
yes.. already warm here.. what are they expecting 105?
oh.. very very good vi
I node you were going to say that Ru
Origami, I like your painting in your icon.
that is why we plan to stay in the city
103 expected here
do some walking and make our way to the jazz fest maybe
do you go to the beach KJ?
Thanks vi
98 with a heat index of 102 here
not really - hate all the sand
oh
well.. beaches normally come with that I suppose
how are you on water?
Thank goodness for ceiling fans
pete has mentioned walking there today - a hike down the coast - only place to stay cool
We got everything that needed to be done, done before 10. Except the pool.
are you asking if I swim?
when is says heat index that includes the humidity molly?
I like water sports... but the beaches here are often windy and sand gets in everything
Yes, it factors the humidity and gives you a "feels like" range.
august and sept and October the beaches aren't windy
oh.. I hate humidity
ex 6/33, first one, pls
When I lived on the central coast, September & October were the warmest months - just lovely

Hmmm, looking...
That mascot cracks me up kje
my sister and nephews have an ongoing xmas tradition where they send me OTT texas xmas ornaments and I send them CA ones. In general, it is hard to top that TX gaudiness, but for next year, I have a banana slug ornament - truly heinous
there has to be something in the Castro that will send them off the deep end kj :D
well... have to be mindful of the kids, ru. We have found some pretty bad ones though
I found the ex 6/36
I think It is good for children in texas to be exposed to the world :D
ex 6/33, first one, pls
ex + the end of sweets at the end of a meal
to take out rather than put in, bichon... see if that is teh 1st
Well, it's before my other ex6/33, at least. Thanks, ru!
ruru's is not the first one, but I don't understand kje's
hey there vicuna!
Hello, hursh!
ruru's is the first 3x 6/33
Hurshy, you are a Little House fan. What did you think about Wilder's name being taken off of the literary award?
opp of insert
Yep, Ru's clue was for the first
the second ex 633 is to harshly take money from someone
my clue is for the first one bichon.. time for coffee for you
i do not think it is good, Molly.
I don't either Hursh. Her books reflect the times she was writing about. It is sad that people are so sensitive these days.
are you sure it is a 6/33 you are looking for? there are earlier 6's, but that is the first 6/33
but not just that they reflect the times, i think people must have read them wrong
the l's are killing me
Sometimes we will go to the movie at the university in our town. Old movies often have hegemonal words and the booing begins
just started Ls
i wrote about it on a friend's post... let me paste
it was always instinctively clear to me that Pa's attitudes were better than Ma's - i'd argue that the evidence for this was right there, in the books themselves. the scene where they visit a deserted Indian campground, I feel like there's a sense of them relating to the Indians who had camped there on a very basic, human level, for instance. feeling like - they have some things they do differently, but they can't be that different from us fundamentally. and the wisdom of the man who warned them about the Long Winter struck me very deeply. the books overall left me with the impression that, as with any group, Indians were not all the same - there were peaceful people and there were violent people, but that on balance, they had some impressive knowledge and wisdom that the white society lacked, and they were treated very badly. in retrospect, do I wish Pa would have become a radical activist who took on the government's constant broken promises and forced migrations? sure. but then, i got an iPhone, and i already supposedly believe in human rights for all, and i already knew that factories in China that supply us with them have violated such rights.
Hurshy, that's an eloquent analysis!
Beautifully put, Hursh!
but, i mean, there's so much going on that is so much worse right now, that her name getting taken off a book award kind of pales in comparison.
*slides into the conversation*
hello, zabeth
hi hursh
i read the little house on the prairie books growing up too, and i don't remember any racism at all...and i just read an article with some examples of words and phrases used. like "there were no people on the prairie, only Indians"
well, ma was clearly quite racist
Always have to put things in the context of time
and that says to me as a kid i just kind of accepted that content without questioning it. i wasn't smart enough to notice it and examine it.
my Mom was very racist. Glad I didn't have that handed down
:(
du 7-8 please?
two + sounds
ty bichon
Wilder's books stand on their own merit. She was a great contributor to children's literature and I think it is unfortunate that her name is being taken off the award.
anybody else remember that song back in the 80s... "every day around the world, they're coming to America"
Neil Diamond, from "The Jazz Singer"
what happened to that feeling?
9/11 happened
It isn't just September 11th. It is the fact that so many people come to this country and take advantage of what it has to offer without actually becoming a part of their communities.
so we thought, "hey, let's just destroy our ideals!"
stats for a U word pls
ud4/6
ty
yw
I that ex that was clued right after the ex 6/39?
is
if you want people to become part of your community, you have to offer acceptance freely - without a bunch of conditions attached
Is that true, Molly, or is that just what the propaganda tells us? My community is full of immigrants who are full and contributing members of the community in every way. My ancestors immigrated here, as did the ancestors of all the politicians and talking heads attacking immigrants. Yes, people are scared, but that can never justify mistreating other scared people.
I am not suggesting mistreating anyone. Nor do I have a problem with immigrants. My ancestors were immigrants as well.
Good! =)
I'm curious what you mean by "take advantage" Molly?
That's true in my neighborhood also Vicuna. Most of the people in my neighborhood are immigrants and they are very much part of the community.
As for "conditions", there are "conditions" attached to most things.
I'm a little confused how discussing Wilder (who's stories are about yesterday's immigrants) to disrespecting today's immigrants.
Yeah, me too Beth.
Whoops. How the discussion moved to...
it didn't, really, beth. i brought up the song "coming to america" because it's been on my mind, as a new comment
When I said take advantage I meant take advantage of opportunities such as education, loans and other programs that favor minorities.
I live in Texas where a good third of the population are Latino. We are all Texans.
my neighborhood is trees...easy to get along with. :)
yes but not be a part of our community, but you have to dress ike us, talk like us, have our beliefs and totally integrate into our society.
stats for the i?
that's going out on a limb there phaeton
howy from Texas Beth, are you also an Elizabeth?
lol, phaeton
: ) I get along very well with trees Phae.
Yes, I am.
Illegals are NOT IMMIGRANTS! 2004 estimated about 12 million illegals here. Today, they say between 25 to 30 MILLION are here. That is an INVASION.
io6/24
two Elizabeth's in Texas
At least that is the only danger...having a limb or tree fall on you. lol
ty Vicuna
oh brother.
ok Molly I want to follow this through so folks get an education, maybe even get a scholarship that is specifically for immigrants. What do you think they''ll do with that education?
That is a valid point. We have a record number of illegal residents in this country.
Zabeth. Where in Texas are you?
Dallas!
you know what was an invasion? an invasion was white people coming here and forcing natives off their land. an invasion was what we did to Mexico in the 1840s.
Yes, Hursh, it absolutely was. That doesn't negate the previous point though. Call it what you will.
anyone who is not a Native American has about zero right to complain that someone else is "invading" "our" land.
(phantom: sesame)
Clue for the io6, please?
there is one group of people in this country who have always been highly favored by its laws and policies, and who have, since the 70s, been able to continue tilting the economic and political playing field in their own direction, and that's the super-rich. if you're going to worry about people taking advantage, those are the people you should be talking about.
hear, hear hurshy
I think that is true of most industrialized nations
It does make a difference what you call it, though. If you call it an invasion of rapists it gets a different reaction from when you call it refugees seeking the the USA's freedom and opportunity.
*realizes she is probably confusing anyone who doesn't know that her flag does not correlate with her citizenship/residency status*
io6 has to do with red stuff you used to put on cuts. sorry hard to clue
Yes indeed. The super rich and the moderately rich have things tilted in their favor. No argument. Minorities have things tilted their way too. Ask anyone who has not gotten a job because a "quota" needed to be filled and they did not fit the criteria.
ty, phae :-)
yw Biltong
ur6?
Molly I'm still curious about your response--so if an immigrant gets an education, even gets a scholarship, what happens next, what do they do with the education?
UR + written words on a phone message to another.
and i'm a minority, i never felt that i got a job because a quota had to be filled, perhaps that's my naivete, but never happened
i don't know anyone who has not gotten a job because of a quota. i don't even know anyone who legit knows the reason why they did not get a job. companies don't go around telling you why they didn't hire you.
Molly I'm a little confused by that bit about racial minorities getting jobs because of quotas... the unemployment rate is still higher for black and latino folks than for white people in the US
ty zoom
I don't think minorities have it so great -- who would want to live a life where you are constantly being slighted because of the way you look, how you dress, the colour of your skin and suffer illness and death in your families because you can't afford medical care and aid doesn't kick in until it is too late and poorer education for your children because nobody cares about the schools in the neighbourhood you live in?
I did not get the clue for the ur6
nm ty zoom, new word for me
when you type a message on your phone and send it peri
that IS a weird word!

woohoo, i have got 90% of the words!

55 left here... trying to gray my Ts
oh i need 3 more Ts, but that's not bad since there are 78 of them
one more here... I can see the light!
(or the gray as it may be)
foggy in sf KJ?
not a bit
the S's on the other hand, i miss 10 out of 88
I was going to go to the city today, but my friend got sick :-(
which city?
San Francisco
os 8 please?
re8 pls
ooooh
cnan sounds like bone diseases
os8 means forming bone... usually in places it shouldn't be
peri - lets go, as a captive
ty hurshy
figured it must have something to do with bones, but I'm still in the dark
st7 after the st8?
nm - found it - ty kje
i don't have an st8 but i have an st7
trade ya
ok i figured out what the 8 had to be and got it
st8 is narrowing... like the narrowing in a blood vessel
damn... does that invalidate the trade?
st7 i have never seen by itself in context. i only know it as an adjective with an -ous ending added. that would be an st10 if it were in the grid, and would mean noisy and labored (describing breathing)
ty
loos
time for food... bbl
there are so many good words in the world. it's lovely to think about sometimes. just last night i was thinking of the word "inexorable" and what a good and powerful adjective that is.
ex 6/33, first one, pls
hopefully i'm not the only one who sits around thinking of words in awe...
As Lord Peter Wimsey says, I find it so easy to get drunk on words that I'm seldom quite sober. =)
me too hurshy
oh that is the weird one bichon... when you want to stick something new into your document you in6 it (not in grid), this is the opposite, ex6.
i will say that yesterday i went into a tunnel of grammar about whether or not you can "endorse" a feeling
YAY for Lord Peter Death Bredon Wimsey
I dunno about endorsing a feeling, zabeth, but I second that emotion!
vi, have you read the other ones that have been published by Jill Paton Walsh (at first in combo credit with Sayers)? Pickled Gherkins had died in the war as a pilot, so then when Gerald died, Peter became Duke of Denver.
just a bunch of a's and d's to go.. what a grid so twisty
Oh, I've read two of them, the combo plus another. Were there more? I haven't remembered that, although now that you mention it it does sound familiar.
*hadn't
there were two in combo i think
okay i should go, spent more time here than i intended. happy babbling everyone.
thrones, dominations, and a presumption of death
re 6/18 between relaxes and ripped again, please?
then there's the attenbury emeralds, and the late scholar
i'm just going to give this machine a little makeover, cnan, since it's not working right now
Ah, I hadn't counted "Presumption" as being a combo, but I see that it is "based loosely" on work by Sayers. I had not read the next two. I'll have to check those out for summer reading.
ae7?
attenbury emeralds, at first i was like, this is not as good. but then when i got further i realized what she was doing and it WAS good.
lord peter is awesome
mmm - no reboot and no restore
ae7, ends like an ex word (not in the grid) that means superfluous.
no, i'm not rebooting or restoring, i'm making CHANGES, and maybe using a ... screwdriver or something... to do so
Sounds like a Trojan hero
ty Vi
ty hurshy
All right, good to know I should not judge Attenbury Emeralds too quickly, hursh. =)
*dancing in a frenzy of Wimsey fandom*
sorry i spoilered you though
"It's good" is hardly a spoiler, I would hope!
no about the dukedom i mean
tudor
:D i tried that too zooz in case as an adjective for architecture it would now count, but no
Oh, well, like I said I think I had read that somewhere or other, so no worries. I see that my library has them in, so I can get going right away. =)
w00t!
who wants to hear a funny cat story?
memememememem!
ok so i have three cats. opie and fritz are "luv bruvs" and then rilla is a dainty little girl. fritz isn't that bright and he is crazy and wrestles her more than she would like. that is the background.
anyone able to clue the do 736?
fritz was on top of this tv cabinet that i have at an angle in the corner, and he looks down behind it and sees that there are pillows there, so he goes, "oooh, pillows! i'm jumping down"
most like do4/6 ruru
oh.. jeez
so he jumps down but then he's like, wait, how do i get out of here? i can't jump back up from the squishy pillows, and i can't go left, and i can't go right!
not thinking.. thank you
tough grid for me
so he starts making all this racket scrambling around back there, and the other two are looking toward the noises in fascination. rilla was like, "he's a pest, good riddance"
mostly just mind numbingly long
but opie, after awhile, he was worried that fritz would not be able to figure this one out, so he rescued him. he went under the cabinet, and i can only presume poked fritz or looked out at him or whatever, and said "hey, come out this way!" and then came back out, and then a moment later, out pops fritz too.
opie's like a firefighter!
hurshy I don't have that re 6 either
cats are not the same, not not not
I am convinced my cats communicate all the time.
they can be quite hilarous
hilarious
fingers object to three vowels in a row i guess
re7?
catch and re7 fishing seems rather pointless to me
i want to EAT the FISHES
what opie did to frizt. Got him out of prison??? re7/8
Oof, this grid is becoming a slog. Time to take a break. Our cat tries to talk to us constantly, but we're apparently too stupid to understand, so she just has to keep saying stuff over and over and over. Peace and joy to all!

yest and it means the opposite of insert
I have one that is "the opposite" of put a letter into an envelope

i like it shirloc
I don't understand the opposite of the push in
an 8 please?

I would pop a balloon behind, Ruru so it makes him pee himself just a little :-)
:D
Wow love your icon painting that you did, Origami!!
Thanks zooz. The 2-yer-old girl I painted it for loved it and hugged it. Of course, the next week her father sent me a picture of her hugging a potato :D
LOL
OMG 78 "T" words.
(hands Xanax to Natasha)
it would take more than a balloon to make me pee my pants zooz
Teehee!
nerves of steel, that ru
But then that depends :D
Thx Ru... I'm an old fashioned girl. Bring me my smelling salts!
Must admit it would not me...I hate the sound of a balloon popping.
Gorgeous canine Ru
I thought you were used to old gasbags around here zooz :D
LOL you are so rude, Ruru!
:D
thanks Natasha.. that's my dog's father
he's kind of a famous dog actually
But then, NatashaW did call you a beautiful dog :-)
she was talking about my canine teeth zooz
Haha!
but only one of 'em Ru
Why is the dog famous, Ruru?
right.. the right one
goes with my smirk
What's his name and breed?
(the dog, not your tooth)
lol
His Name is O'Reilly and he's a golden Retriever
he sired a lot of famous dogs Zooz.. the National Obedience Champion, hunting champions, Show Champions. he was one of the worlds top show dogs during his campaigning
Is he CH Ashford’s Saffron O’Reilly??
yes.. that's him
WOWO
WOWOW
A close friend owned him and I owned his brother who was even more beautiful... but not as built as O'Reilly
a super smart and accomplished dog.. he was a great one for sure.. and a total clown too
And is your offspring dog one of the champions he sired?
no.. my Monty (His brother) became a champion and two other dogs in the litter did too. He's sired hundreds of champions though
Amazing dog.
he'd bring in (retrieve) the New York Times and bring it in for my friend..
the SUNDAY times
did you look him up on the AKC Natasha?
With the magazine, book review, and all?! Impressive
My dog can stand on her hind legs for 20 seconds to wave at the mailman...
the whole thing.. I had to see it to believe it
But she's a rescue mutt
I have a rescue now too.. love her to pieces
Off to go paint. See ya'll later.
have a great day ori.. see you soon
Enjoy the rest of your day, Origami!
Thanks - poof

Hello, Gapeach! To let go of something in your hand say.
Then plural for he RE 8/40
help with to8 pls
Hey there, zooz. How is your mother? Looking...
TO 8 compound word. Musical note + not more.
ty zooz
Hi, Gapeach. Mother is doing better thank you. Is taking stronger medication and hopefully will be on the mend.
How are you keeping?
I on the other and have yet another cold. that is now four this year!
Good news! She and the others in your family are still on my prayer list.
Hand not and.
((Gapeach))
I am OK, zooz. Lost a long time friend yesterday. So I'm rather depressed. Thanks for asking.
I do not get it. i wash my hands all the time and I use antiseptic gel inbetween and I still keep getting these colds. I have been told I am like sheldon cooper from the big bang theory lol
(((Gapeach))) I am very sorry to hear that.
Are you drinking a lot of fluids?
Hi Zooz, Ga, Peri. Greetings from a sun-soaked (for once) Ireland. Sorry you are under the weather, Zooz.
I do, Gapeach. Weather is around 30c so drinking plenty of squash!
((Soodle)) hope you are well?
Sorry for your loss Gapeach
Never better, Zooz. Relishing this extraordinary warm spell.
Hi there, Soodle!!!! Gosh, I haven't seen you in a long time. Hope all is well with you.
Have to de-water the canines ...be right back
(((Gapeach)))). All well here. As I said - condolences on the loss of your pal.
eeww!
Lol.... took me a second to decipher 'de-water'....
Oh sorry LOL I thought you put de-worm HA!
You're bad, Zooz & I'm worse!!
Teehee!
clue for 1st ex6,33 please? The one before blackmail...
Same as the EX 6/39 just change the last vowel.
no, not that one, I have that (last scene of a greek play)
this is 6,33 not 36
To put something in like a coin in a machine is to in6 the money. Just use EX instead.
oh wow, had no idea that was a word!! Thx.
Welcome.
Had to look up "drinking squash". You all across the pond have a whole different set of terms. Zoom is drinking fruit juice (for those of you who might think he is drinking a gourd)
he's probably drinking it while wearing a "jumper" also
though it may be too hot for that...
Ah to me fruit juice is real juice from a real fruit squash is like a concentrate. with a tiny bit of real juice in it.
Or the poor persons version of real fruit juice :-)
And I am eating a Cadbury's Curly-Wurly right now..... (Google should explain).... :-)
It's the Brit version of SunnyD
As long as you're not having Marmite Soodle, we can stay friends :-)
Hey and what is wrong with marmite!
<---- Loves Marmite.
<---Mind went straight to the gutter on Curly-Wurly
I even put a capital letter on it :-)
Sorry, I can't fathom why people like yeast paste
Curly wurly are lovely even though they have shrunk to half the size they used to be.
Guess you have to have been born a Brit to love it... I only married one, which didn't suffice to help me acquire the taste
That, and fruit cake, continue to elude me as to why folks eat them
Oh, now I am laughing even more about "tiny curly-wurlys"
It tastes devine and it is full of all the vitamin Bs
Oh my word fruit cake is delish also!
Point of order..... Squash is NOTHING like SunnyD. SunnyD is the potable version of marmite (note lack of capital letters). Both equally vile.
No relation - SunnyD is a fake orange drink -
I ams eeing you babblers in a whole new light here :-)
<---Thinks Zoom probably likes spotted dick too
together with some curly-wurly Molly?
With custard yes please.
Guess we all like what we were brought up to like...
Oh, Zooz! You too have noticed the shrinkage in chocolate bars? Molly!! Cease your tittering at link between shrinkage & Curly-Wurlys!!!!
No don't stop I was rather enjoying the tease lol
Nope, NatashaW I was given broadbeans when I was young...I hated them. I love them now!
Although I still hate celery.
That was me with asparagus Zooz... despised them as a kid, now I love them. But perhaps the early exposure helped to condition us for later liking??
Kudos to Zooz for dragging the chat back up out of the gutter. Well done Sir!
Oh yes with hollandaise sauce, NatashW!
Well think I will try and retire for the evening. Have dosed myself up with Nightnurse so hoping I will not wake up untill the morning. Happy babbling everyone!
Night night Zooz. :-)
And it's good night from me as well. Curly-Wurly demolished, lip-smackingly good! Toodle-Oo.
"Two kids slide down inside a chimney. One is _______."
One four letter word you've never heard of just also happens to be the name of a big oil company.
"Music for percussion only is pretty much ________."
Oh that conversation ended just like it started. With Zoom going to bed with a Night Nurse. Hahahaha!
is that anything like a Wet Nurse?
Molly thinks it is.
I love teasing zooz. .he's such a good sport
and it makes a good picture . zooz is a gem
Hi Bugsy
waves to origami. this grid has taken all day and I am sick of it but am compelled to continue
I'm in and out - painting today.
And spilled a big drop of water on my painting. Blotted it up and it left a big mark. Now I have to redo a section of my background. Ugh.
lucky you. I have been house cleaning, ironing and other boring stuff. I should be reading not doing this but hey. . .
what kind of paint?
Acrylic.
I've become more adept at telling myself the cleaning will wait until tomorrow :D
should be easier to fix than watercolour then but I couldn't do it
I have company coming tomorrow
It's fixable. It may, however, "leave a mark."
you have more company in two weeks
this will be a full month but I will be ready!
it will be a whale of a time
I'm hoping for a special orcasion
yup. just don't fall in.
I don't do well as BAIT
I would love to go orca watching. Have seen humpbacks.
traditionally we only saw orcas here but now the humpbacks are coming and the locals are more thrilled to see them. I just am filled with awe whenever I spot them
you must come up origami. We will go
she can stay in my guest cottage :D
Who wouldn’t want to live up there
Oooh! Planning trip for next year.
Thank you Dorens :D
only reasonable people need apply though ruru. I have been playing iron sudoku and there are some real crazies there
Of course I first have to buy my place and install guest cottage
Ah, shucks :D
are you hoping to move up here too, Dorens? Where would you like to locate?
The bruhaha in Iron Sudoku is over the top. I let loose a little today because I was so tired of the inflammatory posts.
what were they brouhahaing about
I would love to live there. Maybe too pricey for m.
they go on about American politics trying to find converts
a couple of people keep posting ultra-right wing crap and baiting people. Someone told helenkeller that she was hiding behind her parents' concentration camp experiences in WWII and how the trauma wasn't real.
allllllrighty then
