good morning all
W's whomped. Hi, sprite!
wtg rbud! *hugs* How are you doing today?
getting over whatever's made me snotty and coughy the last few days, it seems, so, pretty good, I guess. And yourself?
ah, good to hear. Nasty bugs :) I am good. Had training yesterday so am pooped today, but that will pass
hmph no hotties?
just me.... i'm hottie....
you sure are. *hugs rose* Hello my dear friend, how have you been?
Hi ladies! How are you all doing?
*hugs Kam* Pretty good here, how about you and your beloved?
doing pretty well, thanks!
{{{sprite}}} {{rbud}} {{kam}}
sprite, still dozing off very early in the evening. but getting stuff done during the day. main issue is pain from arthritis in left shoulder. other than that i am cruising.
as long as you do not overdo stuff, enjoy the cruising :)
are you over that wretched flu fully, sprite?
yes, it is all gone, except for the fatigue.
ugh.... that is not too good...
am pacing myself as much as I can, honey, it will settle in time.
kam.... don't leave us on our own... we get up to all sorts of mischief otherwise.
yep. Rose is miss and I am chief.
I'm kinda tired...like fading away here...
tomorrow i am gonna grab don by his short and curlies and make him help me to start clearing what is supposed to become our new lounge room.
sounds good, rose. When does your cleaning lady start?
poor kam...
Started off the day with way too much adrenaline - hubs literally flew out of bed and crashed on the floor, scared the shooey out of me!
when i have something for her to clean... loll
........
oh my kam !! why did he do that? and how ?
omg Kam, that is a bad start. Is he okay?
My new lady didn't come over today, so write off that one...I need a cleaning lady!
He's fine
He has REM disorder as part of the lovely curse of PD
maybe you can hire rose, Kam, she seems to insist on doing way too much anyway ;)
ahhh !!
glad he is fine. What a shock to the system, though.
pffft sprite
*innocent blink* Hm?
I'm getting a slide in bed rail for the bed. He can use it, or not. I just don't want him to need medical care 4 hours after I fall asleep! We're rural, and 911 can take hours to respond
*sticks wet willie in sprite's ear *
smart move, Kam
you didn't! Ugh... you did!
Ewww!
roflolll, yup i did. ha !!
she actually, physically did it to Rob, Kam. I swear :D
kam, make sure he can release it himself. you may end up with a very disgruntled hubby if he can't get out when he needs to go.
Oh my, I guess that must have been hilarious if Rob didn't get ticked off.
gives a whole new dimension to the chastity belt idea
Oh, he'll be able to get out when he needs to go, no worries. I'm not doing clean up!
* chuckling * yeah i did... and he didn't drive off the side of the highway either.
coulda sent you a rail like that after Ma died last winter, but I think we donated it to the senior center. Not too pricey, really, though.
lol never, Rob is a good sport. He was teasing her badly, as usual. Best part of it was Don's reaction. He went: "She didn't. No, she didn't! Err yep, she did... sigh"
wa4, wet willies? ewwwww
There are small slide in ones that aren't wide at all, plenty of room to scoot out of bed - but I'm getting one of those pool floatie round things to try first, just as a warning barrier.
Pool Noodles!
poor don... he is never prepared for what i could say/do.
*giggles* Gosh we had such fun
I'm so tired I can't even think of words...what am I even doing here? lol
absolutely we did.
enjoying the company, Kam, and feeling how much we support you, even when joking around ;)
sweet kam, if you need to go, just do. lovely that you are able to sleep now.
No prob, I'm just tired. Not sleepy yet..just really not doing much but kicking back and relaxing, so chatting is fine. The grid can wait, because I think I have grid blindness atm
:D
8-)
added a new word yesterday, rose: detear - with a comforting hanky
awww that's nice
which one is the hairy dolphin
?
brb, looking for food
inia
really? It's not in the regular dictionary, and my other dictionary says it's inion, or part of the skull.
no wonder I couldn't figure it out, had not seen the word and description together
look up 'Inia geoffrensis'
Enable has the weirdest words, and so many aren't even English! Gaelic, yes, and I know some of those from reenactment
enable is the weirdest. I have kinda grown attached to it though.
Manana...most of what came up is in Spanish, so now I know it's a river dolphin in Venezuela. But I couldn't find a darned thing the other day about a hairy dolphin, lol!
don't forget anoa and unai
inia is in wikipedia
I know most of the 4 letter 'babblets' and gave up trying to define them. I found a couple of good articles on this river dolphin, mostly in English, but will have to read later...brain isn't in mood to absorb new info
it is not hairy dolphin, but hairy-nosed dolphin. If you are curious about babblets, you can always check my babble idiom list at the bottom of my profile
I'm usually the one everyone asks "what is this" - plant, tree, critter, whatever, lol.
OH, that's why hairy dolphin as a hint didn't turn up anything in search...
lol yeah. of course, another reason is that it is not that common a word or animal, lol.
Sprite, I have looked at your list several times. I love words, and I'm one of the forever curious ones. When I'm not so tired, I guess...
lovely, I am always so happy if other people enjoy the madness as much as I do. You just take care of your tired head, hun, and relax.
I'm even missing simple words tonight...duh.
I always miss simple words. When finishing up, I always go DUh... Duh... DUHUH... simple words and forgotten plurals, singulars, verb forms and such.
I'm gonna disappear from chat, and just chill. Have a few things I still have to do before bed, so I'd best get started...have a great day!! And, Rose, are you on day or night now? Whichever, have a great one!
good night, Kam, and sleep well... and a peaceful waking up tomorrow!
thanx dearest kam. it is early eveningfor me. xoxox
thanx dearest kam. it is early eveningfor me. xoxox
good grief... my laptop just went nuts...
did you fall asleep on the keyboard, honey?
i don't know what happened...i was saying goodnight to kam, and it went ballistic. it's kam's fault. she left chog.
oh, of course :D
weird as....
*slaps hand over rose's mouth quickly*
No, I just went to start with my ayurvedic nose oil...ugh, it stinks! But it works for clogged schnozzes
I always wonder when that happens, why are the boxes different sizes? some are big, some are small...
Heck, that's what happens if my cursor is in chat and a cat marches across the keyboard, lol!
let alone why it happens in the first place, lol
rbud, it's alice...
gremlins
what's alice? your cat? made grannyrose do all that? ;p
through the lookingglass
The song...Go Ask Alice...you just used the lyrics
ah, well, I'll go with it. Large, small, works for me. I just always wonder about oddities like that, cause I took computer programming in college, and I suspect I'd get it if I could see the secret code somewhere.... maybe...
glitches and loops always kinda fascinate me
we used to waste time trying to figure out how to send the college puter into an endless loop, hahaha
when i went out to my kitchen just before there was a scarlet rosella sitting in the leafless tree in next-doors backyard. it was lit by our setting sun, and the colour was just radiant with the back drop of dark grey rain clouds. breath-taking !!
wow that sounds so beautiful
I'm retired IT - learned how to hack pretty well back in the day. Now all the computer languages I knew are obsolete except for old mainframes.
hey, I have a cousin named Rosella, you mean there's a bird?
oh dear. i glanced across to see what DH was doing... he is scrolling through the pics of his "ride" (not me)
I did it back when we had to use huge decks of keypunched cards, such a deal.
I was guessing bird too...we don't have rosellas here, but we have bluebirds! Hubby rescued one yesterday.
lol
term is actually crimson rosella. google it if you wish. we have many different coloured parrots here.
funny thing is, so have we. Many escaped tropical birdies who someone manage to survive and breed and prosper here in our cold wet country.
our king parrots are just gorgeous. they come down to our state when the states in the north are too dry.
fireflies. The horsetails and the marine took me longest to find.
congrats! I was just amazed to find an eq 8, and I've been at this since flip, lol
WTG SPRITE !!!
those are the horsetails :)
Grats, Sprite!
I'm STILL hunting for that darned eq8. Got the 7
thanks, dear people. I am gonna leave you in peace, lol. Have a blessed day/evening and a peaceful day, all. *hugs* to my friends. and an *extra squeeky hug* for rose.
it ends in the abbrev. for the time you expect to arrive
That did work, just wasn't looking left..
yay!
*poofing with hugs*
can i have a clue for my last Qu please it is qu6/27
There are three QU 6/27, Jenny and they are all plurals.
Sorry four but three are plurals.
THe one that is not is just add another letter on the end of QU 5/16 the word meaning to repeat (a passage, phrase, etc.) from a book or speech.
wn
Hello, Aloy! You are either up late or up early. hope you are well?
hi there zooz.. up early but no coffee yet - think I'll go back to bed in a bit and listen to the news before I get up to start the day. I am fine and hope you are too! Doing my first run through the grid.. are you finished already?
No not finished yet still have 63 words to find.
Nothing like your first cuppa! Hope you enjoy, Aloy. Have a great day when it arrives!
tyvm, wish the same to you (-:
btw, am disappointed.. no "hotties"
LOL
it is def. a word in my vocab, lol
There might be some in the PB with lots of treats!
true - haven't seen too many headed for the PB, so I'll bet the cabana boys are bored and the treats are plentiful..
Haha!
Must admit I have done well recently with hardly any grid words put into the chat log.
my typing slips go into the log, like the "wn" earlier, but I manage to keep grid words out most of the time.
I am sure that happens when babblers use expert. For some reason it does that now and again.
Glad you did though it was nice to say hello to you and see how you have been keeping.
When it is cold and snowy I always think of you and your snow shoes half way up the mountains lol
Or is that Scrabbler?
Scrabbler to be sure.. these days I spend winters in Florida, snow shoes and skis left behind in Ohio, lol... do you do winter sports?
Scrabbler LOVES snow!
Oh no way...I am not a Winter person at all. I hate the cold weather.
And bunny rabbits lol
I don't mean I hate bunny rabbit to be clear. I meant, Scrabbler also likes bunny rabbits.
indeed.. I think she has 3, haven't checked lately - but I know that each of the lucky bunnies has its own room
Phantom : Oriental.
Actually there are many phantoms inthis grid.
Down to 51 words. Time for me to get going. it was very nice to see you, Aloy. Enjoy the rest of your day! Happy babbling everyone!

Not too many...
Thank you Sue, I'll look. Don't know if you noticed this, but she posts a lot! Don't get me wrong, great stuff.
Dont get me wrong helen....i dont read her posts too often
Too long winded for me and too frequent
ty jaia will look
Y are quite welcome...yaqw.....
finally found it ty
Me too, ty jai
lol - But she always has a point, you just have to be patient. And her stuff is almost always worth reading, I walk away feeling either like I've learned something new, or that I'm thinking about things slightly differently.
Yaqw!!!
Her pictures are wonderful
Yes, she takes great photos - there was a black & white the other day, tool me a couple of seconds to realize it was a reflection of a bird on a wire in the water by the curb - very nice!
I am reading a great book that will help everyone deal with everyone else in the world. If you have to work or live with other people, get “Leadership and Self-Deception†by The Arbinger Institute.
sue - doesn't she babble anymore?
I think she does the all with her iPhone!
Last five qu's all are built around word meaning to resay a phrase...the first word in this five is that word qu 5 16....
Thanks for the info (((sue))), take care, gotta run
The 2 qu's before those five have to do with numbers... making a certain amount, perhaps, as if you were working on an assembly line and must make a certain amount....
Doesnt that end with a t?
That is it for me. See you tonight
Lunch is over

saltern
ah, done. Last word - a second to 6/27 to go with the to 5/16 and plural to 6/27 I already had. Hat, hats, and the one I just found, which sounds like an even smaller version of the hat. They use the big dbl tile.
last 8 word I got was se 8/40, which is identical to a lover's song sung under his sweetie's window, except the last consonant is NOT a D.
good clue, rbud
