{{{spritey}}} good day achievement wise.

wtg dear friend. And healthwise? Painwise?

1:46 am

hydro... chemist....GP who clarified i do NOT have a fracture... but the possibility of one.... blood test results okayish...painwise... some nerve pain in right thigh after exercises..GP quite happy that my usage of endone is only 3 tablets/week.

1:47 am

wow honey, that is good news all over! What are you to do or avoid to not make the possibility into a real fracture?

1:48 am

my calcium levels a little high...and as i consume 3 portions of high calcium food x 3/day, she has said i am to stop calcium replacement.

1:49 am

also good news. Well done!

1:49 am

i am to continue on with vitamin D supplements though.

1:50 am

I hear ya. Me too. High dosage ones. I just cannot seem to keep up the vit. D.

1:50 am

AND.... she has conceded with the FM, osteoarthritis and osteporesis... i am actually in quite good shape.

1:51 am

she has patients who are much worse than i am. she is very pleased with my hydro and gym work too.

1:51 am

of course you are. You are amazing. The exercise is making so much of a difference in your overall health.

1:53 am

lolll.... and i have been diligently replacing my knitted t-shirts with woven ones... and now my shoulder-span is much smaller. some of my knitted t-shirts are falling off my shoulders, exposing the straps of my singlets... loll

1:54 am

1:57 am

2:00 am

wonderful news, all, rose

2:00 am

2:02 am

and my dearest friend? how are you doing ? any pics of house for me to see yet?

2:02 am

lol. It's all those muscles.

2:03 am

oh and i asked my physio at the gym. apparently the muscles are exercised the same in water as on land. but in water the body weight is less, and the joints more open, so less pain.

2:04 am

yeah, that is the reason I am not allowed to do water exercises.

2:11 am

no answer re the pics?

2:11 am

sorry, missed the question. The pics will be on funda later this week, I will send you the link once they are up.

2:12 am

oh ta honey

2:12 am

I am doing okay. Body is protesting the overtaxation, but I am taking short rests and manage to keep up the work, so it is okay.

2:13 am

how is Rob doing now? is he pacing himself a little more?

2:13 am

good girl... rests are compulsory... you hear?

2:14 am

he did, yesterday. The final wall is papered now, and I have sorted through heaps of clothes.

2:14 am

I hear, I hear :) Am doing good, honey.

2:15 am

ugh... that is the pits... sorting through clothes.... actually more strenuous than thought.

2:15 am

I have thrown out so much. One more closet to go, and it is the one I am actually using all the time, so that is not the worst one.

2:16 am

yay sprite... you rock... xoxox

2:17 am

:) Doing my best. It is a huge adventure, all in all.

2:19 am

today I am gonna do that final closet, walk the dogs, and pay the bills.

2:19 am

also, another load of laundry, because I want everything I am gonna keep clean and in the closet

2:20 am

might get the groceries too, not sure Rob will be up to it after a day of work

2:20 am

good idea honey..

2:22 am

watching the new doctor who. she is actually growing on me... like a wart?? nah... more like a beauty spot... loll

2:23 am

lol. A lady doctor?

2:23 am

i love the clothes she has chosen.. eccentric.. but nice

2:23 am

yes, sprite.. a lady doctor...

2:24 am

wow

2:24 am

she keeps coming out with words you can only imagine the doctor saying... nice continuity

2:26 am

I like the emancipation there

2:30 am

would you believe tomorrow is going to be 28C? i sure hope our A/C is up to it !!

2:32 am

don himself has said he has to clean the A/C filters...

2:33 am

ugh, too hot. We are having unseasonably warm days here too. 25C yesterday.

2:33 am

zooz is late this flip. i hope all is okay.

2:36 am

yeah. He is not having an easy time atm.

2:36 am

huh...sprite ??? aren't you going into autumn?

2:37 am

yes sweetie. It is october, way into autumn. And still, summery temps.

2:37 am

<waves to sprite and rose before diving in> TY Dr. God and Lickety :)

2:37 am

*hugs Kate* Hi there, how are you doing today?

2:37 am

{{{{kate}}}} xoxox

2:38 am

I am well. took a quick peek at the chog.. nothing but happy news, YAY!

2:38 am

:)

2:39 am

carry on chatting ladies, I will spy on the chog ;)

2:40 am

lol. You better join in, much more fun.

2:42 am

LOL, wishing I had some of your lovely temps.. it is more like November here right now. Hoping for one last fling with warmth before the chill settles in for the season.

2:42 am

it's been a lot colder too already. Temps are up and down the scale.

It is snowing in the Texas panhandle. SNOWING! In OCTOBER! This is outrageous. This is an outrage!

2:44 am

Alll summer long I was so pleased with myself.. not one single fruit fly! Now it's mid- October and bang! No idea where they came from - I don't even have any fruit/veg that's not in the fridge Phooey!

2:44 am

criminal, lol

2:44 am

disgusting little things

2:45 am

Hi Samantha :) I think you should all get together and protest! Down with snow! Down with snow! Down with snow! Down with snow!

I dunno. Snow is rare enough where I live to still be considered cool. Of course I have literally never had to shovel out a driveway.

2:46 am

They drive me mad spritey... I have a great way to get rid of them, but I will have to break into the piggy back and go get some wine - and I hate to share - even to get rid of the blighters. ;)

And I

2:46 am

I love snow, when it starts falling, and while it is still pristine. To look at. After that... down with snow, lol

And I am off to bed now, y'all. Have a great morning. :)

2:47 am

what is the remedy, Kate?

2:47 am

nn Samamtha

2:49 am

I use an empty water bottle pierce a little hole in the top (going into the bottle) and put a little red wine in it.. they go in, but can't manage to get out... when I get a bunch, I take it outside and take the top off - they automatically fly up and then I just start over until they are gone... works a treat.

2:49 am

and tell me dear friends... i have all i need to make a four-year-old grand-daughter happy... but a 43 year-old son who hasn't spoken to me for over 12 years ?? what do i give him ??

2:49 am

nice! Will remember that

2:50 am

you could use something smelly like a bit of banana peel too... they just need somethng to draw them in. Even things like onion peel works, but the fruit or wine I ifnd the best.

2:50 am

a hug, rose :)

2:51 am

i think may be the only answer sprite..

2:51 am

Seconds spritey's suggestion.

2:51 am

ta kate

2:51 am

How about a lovely photo of you or the family when he was just a lad... done in a really nice frame.. even a small photo album...?

2:52 am

all the rest is windowdressing, rose. Oh, I like that idea, Kate.

2:52 am

Then tell him hand him a bland frame or album and tell him you'd love to start filling this one <3

2:52 am

(photo of you and thhe boy)

2:53 am

love it

2:53 am

*BLANK, not bland, LOL

2:53 am

roflolollll I was rereading and going... huh... I thought I knew what bland meant but apparently I am wrong...

2:54 am

';) ooops there I go again?

2:54 am

and that YOU was meant to be plural...

2:54 am

*giggles* all good, Kate, you keep us on our toes

2:55 am

rose has toddled of the the WC...

2:55 am

rose and her squirrels, lol

2:55 am

:) luves me some squizzlers !

2:56 am

yeah.. i still have his 'baby' album and the book of his 21st birthday pics and greetings from his guests.

2:56 am

any news from the boat club about the property sprite?

2:56 am

we have a meeting with them on the 31, Kate

2:57 am

phht.... was trying to sort out all your suggestions..

2:57 am

That's fantastic rose, you might even choose a pic to enlarge if you have the negatives.

2:57 am

sure, sure, honey, of course you were :D

2:58 am

there were an avalanche of them.. she may need rescue ;)

2:58 am

don't need negatives nowadays.. don has all the programs to do that. good thought..

2:58 am

*gives rose a bit of Bach's Rescue Remedy*

2:58 am

*send in the St. Bernard with a brandy cask around his neck! *

2:59 am

oh. Brandy. Kate, I am feeling faint too!

2:59 am

*splutter*... not liking bark...

2:59 am

oh... bach.... hmmm

2:59 am

Ah... you can take a trip down memory lane and sort through all the pics at your leisure.. when will you see them?

3:00 am

have an album full of them, kate..

3:00 am

<3

3:01 am

a small selection then. Great idea, Kate.

3:01 am

i have ha4ed his two younger bros with their albums.

3:01 am

Maybe in this case we should send some of your own special Sangria ?

3:01 am

and here is dinner... catch you two dear friends next flip. xoxox

3:01 am

enjoy your dinner, darling, and sleep well

3:01 am

Enjoy your meal rose, hagd!

3:02 am

Good morning, my Babble friends. :)

3:02 am

<--- thinks Samantha has gone looking for a snow shovel, just in case...

3:03 am

Samantha went to bed, honey

3:03 am

3:03 am

3:04 am

I do get here now and then, but never as much as I would like. life is busy. Today, I have 10 minutes before I must head to work for a 04:30 clock-in :(

3:05 am

is that 4.30 am??

3:05 am

ouch! with hours like that, you might as well be working for the railroad! Still, it does give you lots of time after work...

3:05 am

Yup. my shift is over at 1 P.M :)

3:06 am

it is, Sprite

3:06 am

that is really early. I have to admit, I always enjoyed starting early. My work days usually started at 7 am though.

3:06 am

Nothing like taking care of an entire produce section in a big-box store. :(

3:08 am

Big job crossy...

3:09 am

how are you doing, crossy, and how is Elegant?

3:09 am

I saw the pic of Sebastian out walking in the park... getting quite big already <3

3:11 am

lol. The one with the leaf in his mouth? That was a great time. We took him into the woods on top of Blue Mountain and set him loose to play in the pile of freshly-fallen leaves. he tries to run around and catch them all as they fall. :)

3:12 am

I am doing well, Sprite, and my beloved says hello. We just celebrated our 25th, and I had two weeks off just do be with her and do things. was a fine time. ;)

3:12 am

Not sure, this was just one pic... of the bottom of your legs with Sebi that Elegant posted. I saw some of a walk not long ago.

3:13 am

awesome, crossy. Good to hear. We are at 22 here.

3:13 am

My better half is up to her neck in everything puppy. I think you all may get tired of the endless flood of puppy pictures. :0

3:13 am

Puppyhood is wonderful - in the truest sense of the word - can't wait to see pics of him with his first real snow...

3:14 am

I must head to work now. Take care ladies, and have the best of days. :)

3:14 am

No such thing as too many puppy pics crossy.

3:14 am

have a good day, crossy *hugs* for theboth of you

3:14 am

HAGD!

3:15 am

fireflies. Kate, sleep well, and have a lovely day tomorrow. To y'all, a blessed day and a peaceful night... and an extra hug for rose when she comes back.

3:15 am

Congratualtions spritey, see you later :)

The definition looks like sacred monkey of India

11:41 am

tyvm Molly

11:56 am

He's a hindu god

11:57 am

Not a "sacred monkey"

12:01 pm

My apologies, must have misread the clue

12:01 pm

No it was probably written 100 years ago by a bigoted white guy LOL!

no

12:03 pm

yes

no

12:04 pm

yes

how

12:05 pm

why

who

12:05 pm

what

no but seriously

12:05 pm

what

12:06 pm

on loved those hindu comics featuring him when he was little

12:06 pm

Well it ate the first half of that comment

12:07 pm

the h guy is a hindu god not a sacred monkey my son loved those comics featuring him when he was little

what do u mean by "bigoted white guy"

12:08 pm

Evening, everyone! :)

12:09 pm

I mean some asshat wrote that definition because only xtianity is a religion and everything else is Not Real, thereforethe ignorant hindus merely were worshiping a monkey because they were stupidheads. Ignorant bigoted white guys pretty routinely degrade everything not xtian.

not nessesarily

12:10 pm

Again. The h guy is a god, not a sacred monkey.

12:10 pm

Yes ncessarily. I'm guessing you're not hindu.

12:11 pm

1 billion+ people think that he's a god. They get dibs on the definition.

people tend to criticize religions that they dont practice

its not exclusive to white people

12:12 pm

That's true. Hence the definition of "sacred monkey" instead of "god who takes the form of a monkey".

12:13 pm

White guys exclusively wrote the dictionaries 100 years ago and I bet they still dominate writing the (ENGLISH) dictionaries today as well.

why does it matter if they're white tho? thats all im saying

12:15 pm

Because that contributed to their bad attitude towards Hindus, who are actually caucasian. but since they are DARK skinned caucasians, the white guys in power considered them inferior.

12:16 pm

Hence "sacred monkey" instead of "god in the form of a monkey"

considered being past tense

gtg

12:17 pm

Nope. The vast majority of whiteys still denigrate the browns and blacks as inferior.

12:17 pm

And I'm white. Nominally at least.

12:18 pm

I see how my partners in lack of melanin treat others and I don't lie about it.

12:18 pm

un 6/30 pls

12:19 pm

Goo afternoon. Pyewacket, aren't you using a blanket statement to cover ALL whites when there are many of us who don't see others by color OR religion?

I thin "Ixnay" should be a word.

12:20 pm

Like I said. Majority. Obviously not all because I don't.

12:21 pm

And this all hangs on the improper identification of a hindu god as a mere "sacred monkey".

12:21 pm

totakea picture fromawall bichon

"Thar" is not a word? Haven't those editors ever watched a whaling movie?

12:22 pm

Wouldn't take hotties the other day either LOL!

12:23 pm

ty Kallia

"Nuttery" would be a great term for an asylum.

12:28 pm

Or a hattery is a great place to buy a hat.

12:28 pm

Muttery, where you find a mixed breed dog

Oh, yeah.

12:29 pm

OL

12:29 pm

LOL

12:30 pm

my keyboard is getting old. Doesn't always type what I tell it to.

12:31 pm

Nattery. Where old guys get together to talk about the good ol' days.

12:31 pm

my fingers don't always type what I tell them to either, Pyewacket. I wonder why Mung isn't a word? Mung beans have been used for -- 100's of years?

12:33 pm

And how old is the enable dictionary? They weren't a part of the European diet so - short shrift.

12:34 pm

Ayup. I'm still kinda pissed that menudo isn't accepted.

12:37 pm

but manana is - even though that is not the way it is spelled. that should be an enyay in the middle, not a mere en!

12:38 pm

No, IDK about how old Enable is, but I've made mung bean sprouts for (probably) 50 years & I'm American (& not *weird*

12:38 pm

Like the Yiddish words, though, that's a transliteration. That character doesn't exist in the English alphabet.

12:40 pm

Back then they were hippy things! Still not white-guy dominated dictionary worthy LOL!

12:41 pm

Transliteration or not its still spelled wrong.

12:43 pm

I AM American, white, and weird. Mung beans are also food in and of their ow bad bean-y selves. Not just sprouts. I'm just as happy to be able to buy them already sprouted these days.

12:44 pm

I'm guessing (according to the rules) that "mung" is one of those foreign words that is "not recognized by the Enable Dictionary". Why, I don't know.

12:44 pm

Great now I"m hungry

12:44 pm

Because its old and hasn't been updated in decades.

12:46 pm

It's only spelled wrong in Spanish, which we're not using. In English, it's spelled correctly.

12:46 pm

mung beans are a food, indeed!

12:46 pm

It's spelled wrong no matter how you look at it. It IS a Spanish word. It is NOT an English word. And no one says it manana. They say manyana.

12:47 pm

like jalapeno vs jalapeño :)

12:47 pm

So now we should start spelling foix gras fwah grah according to those lights

12:48 pm

*laugh* The origin of the English word is certainly the Spanish word, yep. English adopted and adapted the word, as it does.

12:48 pm

I have never ever seen jalapenyo written without the enya (and too lazy to fire up the character thingy to copy-paste a real enyay)

12:48 pm

it's commonly without the tilde where i live.

12:48 pm

There is no English word manana

12:49 pm

hasta mañana is commonly used in English where i am.

12:49 pm

I think you don't really understand how languages work, but ok.

12:49 pm

Yes and it is pronounced manyana, not manana

12:50 pm

quite, but usually written manana in English.

12:50 pm

Me too, Sean. I'm in Texas, where are you?

12:50 pm

Given that I speak 3 of them I'll let that slide.

12:50 pm

near washington, DC

12:50 pm

Never written manana by anyone with half a brain

12:51 pm

That was my first guess, for some reason. :)

12:51 pm

..... You literally wrote it that way in the sentence where you insulted people for writing it that way.

12:52 pm

Send. Help. Laughing. Too. Hard. To. Breathe. Help.

12:54 pm

just noodled two unexpected ga4

12:54 pm

That explain the lack of oxygen to your brain. I did no such thing and still to lazy to go copy paste the actual enyay.

12:55 pm

alt+164 on keypad for ñ on Windows.

12:56 pm

So?

12:56 pm

Manana is still not a real word.

12:56 pm

ny is used in Catalán, nh in Portuguese, gn in Italian for the same sound.

12:57 pm

saves cutting pasting. An MacOS, option N, n for ñ.

12:57 pm

None of which are either spanish OR english

12:57 pm

good morning everyone :)

12:57 pm

i've long supported people in Spanish and Portuguese on computer issues.

12:58 pm

12:58 pm

I've been ready to ditch the game just so I didn't need to watch the chog

12:59 pm

now I have to ditch for a client call... sigh... happy babbling all... my the dictionaries be in your favor

12:59 pm

sometimes narrowing the window to hide it is advisable.

12:59 pm

I love pointing and laughing at people who lecture others on how they should be acting, though. It's a hoot to watch their virtual faces get all red.

12:59 pm

holy moly! all for the lack of an ñ

Anyway. I have to go clean my kitchen. I'm off for now, I'll be back to finish later. Ciao!

1:01 pm

descriptivism vs prescriptivisim can get heated.

1:52 pm

Good evening, everybody

Hello Babblers.....I just signed on and as usual, read the chat that was in front of me. Today's chat caused me to scroll down further. I feel that NOBODY should criticize another on trivial things. We never know the background or the education of most of our fellow chatters......it would be rather silly to correct the grammar of an English professor! ......just an example ;-)

I got the "holier than thou" vibe from that person, several days ago.

6:16 pm

I’m new at this but it seems like everyone knows how many letters certain words that begin with a certain letter should be. I can see how many words each letter gets and that there are 24 six letter words but no other association. Am I missing something?

6:19 pm

Click on Lickety's Babble Clues at the bottom of the grid.

6:22 pm

Seriously???? I almost fell off the couch laughing. This will help a LOT. Thanks!!! I feel like someone who drives for miles without asking for directions. Ha!

I'm doing rubbish with these T's :( (even with Lickety!)

6:42 pm

Next step, check out https://www.morewords.com (although that can make it almost too easy).

6:44 pm

Yeah, my Mom and Dad use that but that's too much for me, haha!

6:44 pm

I'm happy with Lickety! :P :)

7:10 pm

clue for the 9? :)

7:12 pm

So Becky, your Mom and Dad play Babble too?

7:13 pm

My Mom does, my Dad did. He passed away.

7:18 pm

So sorry for your loss, beckyj.

7:19 pm

Thank you, it'll be 2 years in November. (Which is so odd to 'say'). It still sucks but it is what it is :(

7:21 pm

Don't let anyone tell you that time heals. But time DOES bring new strengths and new ways of dealing with the loss. You'll always have a dad-shaped "hole" in your heart but the edges soften over time. God bless you.

7:21 pm

Thank you <3

7:22 pm

<3 to you too!

7:28 pm

His passing did change my view on life a bit (in the sense that he is one of the closest people (bar my Ma) that i'll lose) and it still feels like 'holy crap' with a big ol' Dad hole if I dwell too much. However, on the flipside, I've always been a happy person and in my bittersweet thinking I explained it to someone the other day by saying that I was at my happiest in life when Dad was alive (of course! <3) with his passing, no he's not coming back but how could I not wake up happy when at this second I have literally everything *else* in life? Very very grateful for the small things these days. I'm so sorry, I'm tired and went on a tangent.

7:31 pm

Sorry

7:53 pm

Hi beckyj! Sorry to hear about your father!The nice thing about Babbleland is that tangents ARE allowed! I do it all the time! Anyway, I'm Minveryork. It's nice to meet you!
