good morning babblers
Hey sprite :-)
hiya Une :) *hug*
35 to go......off to bed :-)
sleep well
qqquore
how do i have a grid where my first 5 words clear the q???
cuz you are brilliant :D Hiya ro!
lol..i think not... hey sprite
Sprite! Hi!! Glad to see you said yesterday that you're feeling better! Good news!
hiya Kam :) *hug* Yeah, I am all better. Just in a lousy condition now, will take a long time to get back to where I was. But no more coughing, no more fever, no more extreme lack of oxygen. How about you and Michael?
So far, so good. He's coughing a lot, but he insists it's the PD. No new cases in our county in a while, and things are opening back up. He got his hair cut last week - yay!
oh that is great. I really long for a haircut! I hope the coughing will subside though, and soon.
I hope so, but it's a chronic thing with him. He did give us a scare and spent 3 days in hospital because he was eating too much sugar and his diabetes got outta control...such is life...if you don't follow all the rules, life can bite you in the butt.
so true
Our diet has drastically changed - for the better. I love salad, and now he wants salad almost every night.
oh that is lovely. So versatile too, salads. You can put almost everything into them.
The packaged mixed greens here stopped putting arugula in the mix. I griped several times, so today he got arugula, oh boy, that salad tasted *so* good! I need to get some pots going in the greenhouse for salad - if I try outdoors, Bambi eats it all
I love arugula. That nutty flavor, just perfect. Great combination with pasta too.
So, are you getting a new living space?
we picked up the trailer yesterday, the one that will be the base for our tiny house. Now we need a place to build. Would be awesome if it could be here, at the camping... there are some options and we are praying it will work out.
Arugula tastes peppery to me - like mild black pepper. But I usually toss a few pecan scraps in a salad, so that could hide the nutty flavor.
So, do you need a property to build on, or???
I usually put fresh black pepper into my dressings, lol, so that might hide the peppery taste!
I always put fresh ground pepper in salad...different tastebuds?
no, we do not need a property, because the tiny house can be easily moved to another location. But we need a location where we can store some building materials, and of course we need permission from the owner
I'm going to try one without the nuts and see if we still taste a nutty flavor, lol! Experimenting with something that is becoming a constant in the diet is fun.
so true. Out of our comfort zones a little...
I hope the tiny house location starter location works out well. That's so cool that you're doing it! And, being out of comfort zones with food is starting to become interesting. I just need to learn the "carb count" he needs to adhere to.
thanks! And everything that helps keep Michael in balance is worth it, I think
Keeping both of us in balance is worth living with change!!
:D
fireflies. *hugs* Kam, have a great evening and a peaceful night. *leaves hug in chog for rose to find, plus hugs from zooz for rose*

oops, sorry
Good morning, silent players. *Pours strong coffee
good morning! first pass, 44 to go. still missing the corner O and the last i
oh! hello molly
after 5 silent hours, we both posted at the same time
Hi Molly!
I love this time of the morning because of the silence
I like it too Bea. Not a lot of clues in the chat, so I can keep it open, and still find words on my own. Fun.
Me too......I just diddle along and get on with it!
Cheers.
Bottoms up!
Are you still cold and rainy up there, Molly?
My first time trying Tuscan bread. The flavor is good (cheese garlic) but it's a little light for me. I like a denser bread. Now we are just chilly Bea. Rain comes back tomorrow.
We've had over 5 inches of rain since Sunday. Slow drizzle most of the day. Trees are going to start toppling and electricity is going to go out as the ground is so saturated.
Jeeze. Enough is enough.
we are in a very dry pattern right now. could use some of your rain
It is so weird to be going into Memorial Day weekend and not have the pool to look forward to.
4th of July will probably be a bust too. How sad.
It will be interesting to see how they work that this summer. One state was saying they would open pools but you had to wear masks. ??? Why go?
Oh come on, how can you wear a mask in the pool?
mass says mask at beach, but not in the water (!?)
I know, that's what I was wondering. And who wants that tan line across their face when just sitting by the water?
Okay, now I am laughing about mask tan lines.
If they cancel fireworks, there are going to be a lot more people shooting them off illegally.
My daughter is in a knee brace for the summer. She commented thst she was really going to have a funky tan with that and a mask.
You can shoot them off here. They go on for days...
Whenever someone I know travels south, I always give them some cash and ask them to pick up some fireworks for me.
Fireworks....torturing poor neighborhood dogs :-(
Heard lots of fireworks here last night
Wonder why, Carla?
I was wondering as well.
Are you still in SC?
They are legal in SC so maybe this is a regular occurrence. Maybe the fireworks stores just reopened.
Yep, leaving in a little while
Still raining there?
Leaving to come back home?
They are usually not legal in campgrounds but this may have been across the lake at a house
Yes, going home. Had some more downpours overnight and then a light rain just a little while ago.
Travel safely.
I asked my son last night what was in the rain gauge at home because he said our pool was filled to the top - 4.5†while we were gone.
Thanks!
Same here. Almost five inches.
Why fireworks? Why not? People are bored silly.
I assumed that’s what it was.
Wish I had a rain gauge on here.
With all the rain and no garden work, I've been getting a lot done in the sewing room.
I bet.
You could get a rain gauge that sticks in the ground for the RV, Carla.
Yep
Just never remember to
Or just glue a ruler inside an empty coffee can. : D
And weld it to the top of the RV roof...LOL!
Actually there are a lot of good ideas for do it yourself rain gauges.
good morning everyone :)
I remember the horrible winter we had multiple huge snow storms, we had a yard stick stuck in the ground off the patio. I finally took it down because it was depressing me.
lol - a yard stick wouldn't begin to cover it in a lot of places, Molly -- a 2 metre stick maybe :)
hi cyber
bzz ar you still getting rain?
hi all.multitasking here. babbling while coloring my hair
that doesn't sound like a good idea peri
are the no8 words compound
the babble part with dye on your gloves
no they are not compound
She might enter some colorful words!
my hands are dye free
yeah it might make her keyboard look really nice
no luck with the in8 either
do you need someone to send you a memo, peri?
it is cold here. guess my landlady decided no more heat since it is almost the end of may
ty nan
got them both
:D
peri really dye free?.. oh is it a spray/
do you want a clue for the in?
t for the no 8 clues
I do cyber please?
no it is liquid Revlon Colorsilk
yes pls nan
Another round here, please.
In + macdonalds sign
I usually get some of the dye on my clothes which is why I wear an old shirt during the process
peri ohh
ty for in8
ty cyber
yw
and the kit comes with gloves
it is inexpensive and covers the gray
that's good peri
are you going blonde peri?
ty for the 8s!
could I have a clue for the corner O please?
I have been going blonde for many years. I was a golden blonde as a babby
I need that too harry
or6/24
I have or4.5 and or6.24
peri I am naturally a dirty blonde have not needed to color my hair...yet
ty bea
nbt, 35 to go - gotta go to the supermarket!
tybzz
62 left and not liking this grid bbl
I like to say that I've restored my hair to its historic color
4th column h above the I I need stats from there pls/
pastor what color would that be?
blonde, of course!
clue for the or 6 please? - can't get past the phantom orchard
I'm 64, and only have a few barely noticed strands of grey coming in, so I don't know if I'll dye or not. (thanks mom for the genes!)
nm - found it
Bottoms up.
My natural color is quite mousy these days, so I brighten it up. A lot.
have been grey/silver for many years now -- hair won't take a dye, so glad it came in evenly
pastor oh
i am thinking because i have blodne/brownish hair that ii could be all white at some point
bzz bottom up?
In my youth I had bright coppery red hair, then it faded to brownish red after about 40 years. Now you can still see red if I'm standing in sunlight; otherwise it looks brownish. With those few tiny wisps of grey coming in.
I created a new avatar on FB the other day, and after going to all the trouble of picking everything, including "picking my nose", it said "Here's your new avatar!" And it had changed everything! Bald, wrong eye color, different clothes, different complexion, everything. I felt like it had judged me to be an impostor!
ch sounds like one of my brother's hair color
pastor how did you do that?
I'm hoping when my grey takes over, it will be a nice grey that I won't need to dye.
How did I create the avatar, or how did I get everything wrong?
create it?
I think you can only do it on your phone, although then you can use it on FB on your computer. Let me see if I can retrace how to do it...
ad 6/30, pls
at sea ... bichon
Another round...
id don't have a cell phone
ty ch
Oh, sorry, I couldn't find a way to do it on my computer. It might be that my phone has a more recent FB app. You might look at the menu page on FB on your computer and see if something says "avatars". If so, click on that and follow the instructions. I can't imagine it's not possible on a computer.
that's so cool
if you can
you don't have a cell phone Mlf?
founda word for that h
Had the same question & researched yesterday. You cannot create the avatar on a computer, you have to use the phone app. Just silly.
ad 6: not anchored
no ruru i dont
wow.. that's amazing
so not fair right Alycia?
It's almost too generic, though, mlf - a lot of my friends' avatars barely resemble them.
ty nan and ch
they usually are generic
I have a cell, just don't use it as a computer! That's what my laptop is for<grumble, grumble>
I'm going to settle up my tab and head out for the day.
i hae a desktop computer
your tab bzz?
See you all tomorrow if the power stays on...

THANKS ML....FW FOR ME...BYE ALL!
morning all, just getting started on this one
hey moo! I still have 49 left.
92 left now, perhaps I'll catch you?
I'm sure you will.
in like 3 minutes
42 left
48 :D but Mr. Homie keeps talking to me
I can't imagine that it is much fun to play this game if you whip through it that fast
well, shame on him
It's why I don't use the list Molly, the last 10-20% takes a lot longer
moo can't be stopped! he will be at 10 left in 4 min
otherwise I'd be done with the whole thing to quickly
don't think so hoke, I'm already slowing down
plus I'm yet to find an 8 so that typically suggests it's going to take a bit longer
I have 4 7's but no 8s either
I too have 4 sevens
also having trouble finishing off tiles. have only grayed 4.
well 5 now
6 grayed, plus the 3 freebies
6 grayed now
7 here
hopefully I will try to stop looking for words from those
you never know, there might be more there
ur 6 clue pls?
think the ocean
I kept thinking that word was a phantom but it is actually there
ah, there's an 8
... or Oliver Twist was a street ur6
u finished
yep
no
17 to go
wow, 36 still
ty got it
which means the 7 isn't related
there's the other 2 eights
still none here :D
big words aren't my strong suit ;)
one is unusual..the other two are regular words
6s give me the most trouble
the describes every grid lol
from playing all that scrabble I think...6 letter words aren't as profitable most times
I always say 6s are my nemeses
agreed mool
still have 6 6s to go
ooh, I got one 8
nice!
oh lord, I have 10 6s to go
62 left here
i's finished
I have 72 left
then you got the harder one :)
great I guess
it's all downhill coasting from here
bottom row finished, starting to look better here
still have an A to go down there
nope, finished that row
was going to say it should be easy to find
yeah, wasn't really paying much attention to it
last word is he6. I listed at 30.
I need an N and a U for the bottom

ty Harry
Have you watched The Kominsky Method with Michael Douglas and Alan arkin?

bichon?
yes, try making it pl
or no I don't think I like the sushi with the ur in it
I answered you, peri. What was your question?
oh! I just read that the actor who played Eddie Haskell died!
oh geez I was looking the worng direction duhhh
His was my favorite character on leave it to beaver
11:25 am
yeah, my bro told me that the other day
4s done
11"25 was for bichon
peri, what are you asking me?
I will post again: I asked if you had watched The kominsky Method with Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin. I had posted it at 11:25 am also
he was a great character. have even used him to describe friends of my kids.
He was an LA police officer as an adult!
I hadn't heard about him dying I only know him from that show
finding this grid to be tough
Yes Carla! My kids have also had friends who were "eddie haskells"
yeah it's weird peri, it's tough, but at times it can kind of unlock a bit
No, peri, I haven't, is it good?
LOL, could you imagine if you were pulled over by him
t46/4.....clue please
there's a 46 letter word? I'm screwed
bichon, yes. it is very good. and Funny.
they are great together
but it's only worth 4 points, so obviously a lot of blank tiles
yeah, I noticed that

rain gauge was over the last mark - 5"
The things you can "re" and the things you can't in this game always amazes me.
That's a lot of rain, hokie. We only get 20" a year here.

I was about ready to put on boxing gloves and defend Peri until I got the context of the conversation
haha molls
the plus side of slow delivery these days is that I have generally forgotten what exactly I ordered so it is always a nice surprise
.... my wife and I were each expecting a package so we weren't surprised when one showed up ... but it seemed excessively large and it was the wrong carrier .... ... wine for mother's day from daughter 1 ... and most pleasant surprise
nice. . .
I got a package of bias tape which I am using for making masks for a local clinic for their out patients. I found out two weeks later I have not ordered it but my niece had and she wondered why I didn't say anything!
I didn't read the label. I recognized the feel of bias tape through the package.
Could I have help with te6/24 please.I found a word ,it had the correct letter valuw and was in A 2 Z but Babble will notaccept it.
... an adjective describing a person who is really good with computers
Thank you dos , it was the adjective part of your clue that helped.
he 6/24, pls
... that was a tough one to find ... the first four letters isn't accepted as a word
he6 ... it's another Japanese word ... he + me + sounds like reticent to speak or even be seen around people
ty dose--so many English words not allowed but Japanese is *palm slap forehead*
ty dose
yeah, the dictionary updated seemingly randomly
.... fortunately I'd did a graduate business degree in the early 80's and ended u[ recognizing a bunch of Japanese words
fo 5/18, first one, pls
... The Air fo8 has a school in Colorado Springs
ty again dose
... most welcome
.... gotta go ..... luck to all who continue the struggle ....
bye dose
pouring again! the boys and mr. homie are swimming in the pool though.
it's going to rain here tomorrow
I'm glad it's warm enough to swim there.
it's not, mr. homie forgot to turn off the pool heater the other day, so it's pretty warm in the water.

Cheers!
I thought you said Beer amelu and i was looking for heiniken (sp?)
heineken?
I thought it was amazing that there were two give away clues in one post. Slainte!
Good evening. I cannot breathe! My nose is completely clogged. UGH!
firewords! thanks Molly and lickety and all cluers
congrats!
ugh phandmd that's the worst
yes. it. is.
Not Covid, I hope.
I hate when i can’t breathe from allergies
No. I already recovered from Covid, Never had a plugged nose. MOre likely allergies. maybe a cold.
Allergies most likely
Yea, I think so too.
I just had a two week stretch of it. All better know
that's good, Ru. I have been suffering with my allergies since before I got sick with the covid. They have been horrible this year. But I have not had a clogged nose!
it also seems my ears are clogged... fantastic. Makes it hard to swallow...
Hi folks. I had my back door open for a spell today so the dog with the cone could go in and out and now there is a fly in here. Cone dog (who always chases flies) is trying to get it while wearing the cone. There goes the paint job!
but it is probably amusing...
That it is :D
I don't believe it. He actually got it.
Clogged ears, cone dogs and still the sober typos...all better know....and the beat goes on.
Sober typos? I'll blame all of my typos on being sober :D
I'm having the exterior of my house painted tomorrow in surprise colors. I started to go to Home Depot to get color swatches but there was no way I was going in there. Parking lot packed, no line to get in, hordes of people coming out without masks (including employees). I'm just relying on the Behr site and hope the colors are true on the monitor.
good luck!
I am a little nervous :D But it is pretty hard to mess up light gray and white, so we'll see.
yeah. I think it will be ok...
i'd worry a bit about "surprise" colors
