We had horrible storms here yesterday. I was surprised there was not more damage/power outages.

7:37 am

bichon, I have a daughter in Norwich, Ct, are you close?

7:39 am

Not really, but there was heavy rains and high winds all day all over the state

7:40 am

Glad you are alright.

7:41 am

ty gapeach. We've been through much worse

7:41 am

We had it bad here Sunday night into Monday morning.

7:43 am

It's too bad Covid ruined Easter services

7:43 am

Yes, it is.

7:45 am

Wow, financial experts recommend that you keep six months worth of "living expenses" in an emergency savings account. I'm willing to be most people don't.

7:46 am

hi all. would love a clue for the u word. ty

7:46 am

It's a great idea, but most people don't have enough income or savings to do that

7:47 am

un5.14

7:48 am

without writing

7:49 am

et 6/27, pls

7:50 am

think chemistry bichon

7:51 am

se6,27?

7:51 am

ty mixi

7:52 am

hi, everyone

7:52 am

hi welki

7:53 am

Hi, welki.

7:54 am

se6 is Japanese verse

7:55 am

hi welki

7:55 am

Good morning, welki.

7:56 am

Bea, the only Japanese verse is Haiku

7:57 am

Afternoon all....can someone please remind me how to add my words to the list?

7:58 am

There is another form similar, bichon.

7:59 am

se6 is similar to haiku.

7:59 am

ty. fw

8:00 am

could someone give me a clue. I googled it, but no luck

8:01 am

uses sometimes vowel and last vowel at the end of the word.

8:03 am

the start of the word is rather like the he5.16 (king who got through quite a few wives), bichon.

8:03 am

does the y end the word?

8:03 am

no

8:04 am

AM I INVISIBLE, OR ARE YOU ALL JUST DOWNRIGHT RUDE!!!

8:05 am

No, WE areen't RUDE. wE ARE BUSY.

8:05 am

I'm sorry, Flask. I do not know the anser to your question as I use expert.

8:05 am

ty Jacula, Bea

8:06 am

BUT NOT TOO BUSY TO CLUE EACH OTHER GAPEACH!!

8:06 am

Hi Flask. I didn't see you there. You just press enter to add a word to your list on here.

8:07 am

Or click on the Add Word box and press the Add button.

8:08 am

Hi Jacula....I mean to add words to lickety's page please....

8:09 am

Ah, I haven't done that in a while. I think you just type the word in on there.

8:10 am

Thanks Jacula.....is there anyone here knows????

8:11 am

I've just had a quick look for you and you type the word in the add word box at the top.

There's a number of ways of doing it. In the top box, add the word and hit return - if it's a word, it'll disappear from the top box and appear like magic in the correct place. If it isn't, it'll just stay there, like a wasp investigating your beer

You can also enter the word directly into the (hopefully) correct space in the list, but you won't know if you're right or not.

8:12 am

Lol matty - that last bit about the wasp made me smile.

Or you can copy the entire word list from Babble (the words you've found) and paste it into the first big box at the bottom (don't worry about the extra bits like the scores - Lickety will take care of that for you)

8:14 am

Thankyou very much Matty...also to you too Jacula...

8:14 am

Perfect, matty. Thank you.

8:14 am

y/w Flask.

And hey, it's a stressful time for everyone - we're all here but many are just dealing with the puzzle or with people they know (either online, here or elsewhere). I don't always get answers either. These are crazy, crazy times! How are you coping, Flask?

Well, I'm here on and off ;)

8:20 am

I'm off, too. I'll be back for my final 30 later. Bye all.

8:21 am

Matty, I fully understand what you're saying, however, over the years, I seem to have a prime target for this type of treatment, and believe me, it hurts! Sadly, it usually always the same players.....how am I coping with covid.....well I am virtually bed-bound anyway, and my son is my main carer....so we're hanging in there.....as I hope you are....:)

8:21 am

Bye Jacula!

8:23 am

dhyne

just getting here and wanted to add, if you don't know where your cursor is on lickety's page, just hit enter and it will put it in the box then you can type the word

8:24 am

Morning, Carla.

morning, bea. I don't like this grid already.

8:24 am

Thankyou Carla

8:24 am

There are no A's

good point

8:25 am

Buzzn...I saw you message...thankyou!

I'm on a Mac, so can't use Expert so I'm pretty good with Lickety (when I can be bothered)

8:25 am

You are welcome, flask

same

When I first started playing, I HAD to finish every grid. It became more of a chore than a pleasure, so I stopped all together. Now, sometimes I finish, sometimes I don't and I enjoy it all the more for it :)

I do as many as I can, then open lickety and do bulk add, then after that any I get I enter in the box at the top.

8:26 am

fw

matty, I was the same way years ago and it got too much and I just quit altogether. then came back after about 5 years off and now I don't have to finish. I like to, but can still go to bed without

8:27 am

Congrats, peach.

It sounds like we are similar, Carla

8:28 am

I'm the same Matty....used torture myself trying to finish them, years ago.....now sometimes I can go for months and not play at all....now I too enjoy it much more....

I've hit a wall now, though, with 35 left. I may...or may not list :)

:D we both use the internet acronyms too ;)

8:28 am

I think there is a lesson to be learned here....maybe...lol

I still have 100 left! working on the lower s, no idea how there are that many.

Everyone's different and everyone plays differently. I try not to let people's quirks annoy me because I'm fully aware I have many irritating quirks of my own

(present company excluded, of course ;) )

of course :D

8:31 am

lol....good!

8:33 am

hello

8:33 am

Hello MLFAN...

8:33 am

hello flask!

8:34 am

how are you??

8:34 am

i don't have any irritating habits .. personally

8:34 am

well.. maybe just punning

8:34 am

Surviving like the rest of us how about you?

8:35 am

Same here.....looking forward to it being all over...

8:36 am

amen to that one Flask

I'm ok. I was planning on going to Australia in May as my daughter, who lives in Melbourne, is expecting a daughter (my first grandchild) on 5 May but alas...

ugh, that stinks matty. sorry.

8:37 am

I'm sorry, Matty. That's tough.

s'ok. She's healthy, I'm healthy so things could be worse x

8:37 am

Thats a shame Matty!....

8:38 am

matty, sorry to hear that

but congrats on your first grandchild!

I'm tentatively hoping to go in November, which at least has the advantage of being the Australian late spring, rather than practically winter

8:39 am

However, just think of the beautiful bundle that you will have to spoil soon....and all the yummy photos

8:39 am

may I have a clue for the un word pls?

8:40 am

not write

just found the sewing case, bea!

8:40 am

I did find it today.

well, that's weird. how can you un_ something

top row finished! ;)

8:41 am

stupid word

I did find a yiddish word today so I got that going for me

8:42 am

Yes, it took me a bit to find that one...

8:43 am

does anyone have the et 6/7?

Oooh - what does the Yiddish word start with, please (if I had to guess, I'd go with sh, but I could be wrong)

Found it

yep, sh5/6, but I think it usually has a c in there

8:44 am

lickety's site isn't working?

8:44 am

et6 is chemically and the 7 is plural

It's actually I word I use (I'm from New York originally)

8:44 am

it is for me

It's working for me

don't know ru

just clicked and it never loaded

eek!

8:46 am

not working for me

Try the ever popular hard refresh?

8:46 am

chemically what?

Think alcohol, MLF

maybe it's down now and the people that already had it open should not refresh or they'll lose it

8:46 am

Chemistry word.

8:47 am

I got it

8:47 am

nbt/nbs

Of the 22 words I have left, 8 are Hs. I started well. And have grinded to a shuddering halt

I still have 7 h's, matty. keep wanting hirsute to work.

9:04 am

Now I can't unsee that

9:05 am

Plural of an eye part

9:10 am

plural, nan

Snirt. Another word I want.

9:11 am

lol - already had it too -- looking for an i from the 2nd col.

9:12 am

in6...to put a coin in a slot

bea, have heard of land of oz and the giant is all over the country. there's actually a website that tracks the remaining muffler men. have not heard of the others so will try to read later. also they forgot the road to nowhere

9:12 am

There is an in7 from that one, nan.

9:12 am

9:13 am

the in7 is what I'm missing

9:13 am

leftover night was great, but we didn't finish all the shrimp alfredo so I'm having it for b-fast

The meek shall in7 the earth

I almost threw up a little, Aloy

ah, thx, matty

9:14 am

I know my beatitudes

9:14 am

lol hokie

9:14 am

Yuck...Aloy...Sounds as bad as mlf's spaghetti yesterday for breakfast.

These Hs are killing me. I still have 8 left, out of a total of 19 left

9:14 am

anyone ever heard of scrambled eggs around here jeezus

spelunker

9:15 am

am with mlf.. whatever hits my fancy is fine for b-fast

lol, ruru. right?

It's only tradition that dictates what we eat for breakfast, really. The Japanese love themselves some rice with veg for breakfast - no sillier than cereal with fruit, really

9:15 am

I mean, it is 5 o'clock somewhere..

Me, I rarely have breakfast at all, so crack on, I say

9:16 am

I do like cold leftover chicken nuggets for breakfast.

9:16 am

i hope you're washing it down with a nice Vermentino ALoy

If that were the case, Alo, I'd be having gin for breakfast ;)

(I don't, just for clarity)

I do have just coffee a lot or with something small

9:17 am

(gives bea a side glance)

9:17 am

I got my last 4 H's for fw.

well done, bea. were they weird?

9:17 am

I HATE THESE Hs!! ;)

9:17 am

my brother used to eat cold pizza for breakfast UGH

9:17 am

Of course they were weird.

thought so

I can eat pizza for breakfast

9:18 am

They are the same words, just different spellings.

I'm going to this list. obviously not my day here.

There's an hi7?!

9:18 am

see? the truth comes out, lol .. C'mon ru, what is the weirdest b-fast you have enjoyed?

9:18 am

I hope there are a lot of h 4's -- need 12 h's still

and it's not hirsute

Ha!

9:19 am

Close though, Carla...

9:20 am

i haven't aloy.. i am easing my stomach into the day in the morning :D

Oooh, is it colse?

9:20 am

Yes, matty

There are 4 like that, matty.

9:22 am

ooh, ty for that info, matty

Yarp. Silly words

9:23 am

9:24 am

cyber isn't that an island?

9:24 am

Smaller, mlf.

9:24 am

yeah I am confused too

9:25 am

Just flip the last letters, Carla

9:26 am

9:26 am

9:26 am

9:27 am

Mmm...I found a recipe for rice pudding in the instant pot...Sounds comforting.

9:27 am

in7 is something you have gained from your grandma

9:28 am

I can not leave without finding out what MLF had for breakfast...

9:29 am

No, it is not an H word.

9:35 am

Similar though

9:35 am

I googled it and that's the one I know is all)

9:35 am

Did you get it, Carla.

9:35 am

does it end like the ha 5 japanese verse?

am trying to make it end like haiku but no luck yet

9:36 am

that's what I was trying cyber

9:36 am

Yes, it ends with that vowel.

9:36 am

Also uses the sometimes vowel

9:36 am

snap, carla

9:36 am

at the end

9:36 am

Thank you Bea, the Russian made me laugh.

hobbit words? does that mean they are not real words?

no, it means they are words in the hobbit. where the hobbits live.

9:41 am

They are also Brit words, Nan

9:42 am

9:49 am

lol - was looking for something more exotic

9:49 am

Yes.... Yiddish "carry"

9:50 am

sh 6 is a liquor

9:50 am

4:03 pm

you'll have ice for a gin and tonic :)

4:03 pm

had to throw most of the food out

4:03 pm

yes indeed

4:04 pm

if you have renters' insurance, it may cover the loss of your food - might not be worth the potential bump in premium, though

4:04 pm

I don't have renters insurance

4:06 pm

tough grid for me

4:06 pm

i don't know about you folks, but i have to ease up on myself here a bit while i'm 'isolated' - i have to stop feeling guilty if every moment of every day isn't devoted to cleaning, fixing or cooking

4:06 pm

67 left

4:07 pm

me too welki but I need to get to laundromat very soon, probably tomorrow

yep

4:07 pm

i feel guilty because my husband goes to work (and i don't), because some of my kids are front line health workers during this shitstorm, because for the time being, we're doing okay while so many are not .... yesterday was my birthday and it was the crappiest day ever

i am actually enjoying cleaning etc. been a bit neglectful over the winter.

sorrt. a belated wish for a big celebration when this is over.

4:08 pm

sorry you had a crappy birthday but belated birthday greetings from me

4:08 pm

okay, i'm exaggerating. it was not 'the crappiest day ever,' but it sure wasn't a good one

looking forward to nice weather next week to take all the curtains down & wash them.

found antibacterial spic & span spray at the dollar store- score!

4:09 pm

if the weather warms up, i want to wash down the porch and furniture on it so i can spend some time there - and the back deck, too

but shopping was god awful today. took hours

people are just oblivious.

now all i have to do is start the 2 week countdown again. i'd rather eat spaghetti every day than go back out there.

4:11 pm

(but it's supposed to snow again tomorrow) and shopping - ugh. i have to pick some stuff up tomorrow, a scheduled pick-up, so shouldn't be too bad (except i have to do it after i drop my car off to have winter tires removed - figures! *lol*)

hate I missed you yesterday on your birthday! it was the worst, I know.

4:11 pm

we've been finishing off some leftovers before the next cooking frenzy begins

that pick up service is nice. i wouldn't mind being a shopper, but i won't take a job away from someone who really needs it.

we may have flurries tomorrow.

4:12 pm

thanks hokie - you know, yours was last week. all birthdays should be rescheduled.

yep, but to when!

i think by mid ay we'll ease up. but i'll still be hesitant to go anywhere there's a crowd.

4:14 pm

i am so thankful we have our dog - she's the reason i get the coat on and get out of the house

wondering how out musikfest will fare. it's hard to keep sanitary there and we'll still have to.

4:16 pm

calgary music festivals are all in holding patterns, too - everything is.

jue festivals: one cancelled, one moved to thrid week in August. even if they lift the ban, i don't think i'll rush back to dance.

4:17 pm

thank you, ladies - this 'unloading' has helped

I feel for you up north. has been nice getting out here in nice weather. can't imagine being stuck inside.

I'm not sure when I'll feel comfy going back in public.

yes, spring weather does help.

def want to get the antibody test whenever it's available

4:20 pm

i'm not in any rush to be near any crowds - gives me the willies walking past folks on the paths here

i despair that it will be. think how many are needed, because the results would be subject to change daily

4:21 pm

here, it's fairly simple to get tested now, if you are high risk or have any of the 'common' symptoms. me, i'm not that interested in being tested 'just because,' but would like the antibody test, too

sneed 30 and still lacking 7 7s

they have like drive through testing here. I don't think it's that easy to get one and apparently the state ones are taking 10 days for results, which just seems pointless, but my dr/hospital system has their own lab and results are much faster

my county is purusing getting the instant test machine can do 4 per hour.

and they are moving to self testing, which reduces the PPE needed.

4:27 pm

you take care, i'm going to pick up the ol' guitar for a little while and scare the dog with my voice :)

bye, welk

9:37 pm
