hello everyone
re8
hi nan, have you got snow?
ding ding ding!!!
Clues are up
hi saanich -- a little snow -- roads are bare though
sure is cold though -- high of 1C tomorrow
how about you?
Geez, I'm still wearing shorts here.
chilly and damp, the usual coastal weather, Woodstove on though.
pull the other one rain
shorts! where are you?
The southernmost city in Canada, Windsor, Ontario
also one of the coldest areas -- at least it was when we lived there
nan did I get fooled?
Seriously, I'm still wearing shorts now and I just came inside for the flip.
only if they are haveing record breaking weather, saanich
wow that is impressive for sure, in Canada in November.
It's only 37 F fer cryin out loud !
Saanich it is currently 3C in Windsor
hmmm.
WHat's your problem Nan ?
We have about a foot of snow, fell in one day. Thankfully, we don't have the wind that they are having in southern Alberta. Misserable down there, isn't it nan.
I lived in ON for too long not to know what November weather is like
We eased into the cooler weather; yesterday it was very warm.
Are you calling me a liar ?
I will give you that it is 4 degrees warmer than here :)
friends in Saskatoon had several snow days, 2ft
yes - SK has had a lot of snow.
the cold weather seems to have come really early this year and suddenly too
It's kinda rude to cast aspersions on someone.
We had the most beautiful October though!
ar 7 if not called
rase
whhops sorry
What's it doing where you live, saanich? I have a brother in N. Saanich and a sister near Cordova Bay golf course. I didn't talk to either of them today.
not seeing that re 8
cloudy, foggy and mizzly, about 55 F and actually quite pleasant. The aspens are all turning, as well as the red maples soevrything sort of glows.
I love Victoria, any time of the year!
I got a Butchart Gardens pass (only live 15 mins away) and go 3 or 4 times a week. Great w/o people because you can actually see it properly
Envious ;-)
I'll take you if you come to visit!
I'm just waiting until this pandemic passes....I am long overdue for a visit to my siblings. I used to go to evening concerts at the Buchart Gardens back in 1958 - 1959.
Then I got married, moved back to Alberta and have been here ever since !
those were the good old days for sure, lucky you. I think we are all sitting tight, BC cases skyrocketed.
Alberta cases even more so.
and poor manitoba
I just finished making 36 christmas themed masks to put in the family parcels that are going out next week.
that kept me busy for a couple of weeks :)
off to sleep, have a good night everyone.
We had a VERY bad day here today :-( I talked to my sister in Vancouver yesterday and says they are prepared for a two week "short circuit" strategy if it comes
Night, saanich I am not far behind
I've made a few masks, nan, but nowhere near that many !!
off to bed as well - this grid is no where near as friendly as yesterday's
I had a lot of Christmas fabric left over from stocking I made for the kids years ago -- decided to use it up.
good night everyone
any helpful hints for the es7? That would get me to nbt/nbs
sorry, rbud...don't have it yet.
es7 sounds a little like an artificial sweetener
es7. e + most of roman slave/gladiator + vowel
thank you both! and now I don't feel bad that it didn't spring to mind - not familiar with it at all.
yw
got 56 left for my morning coffee....night all

parto
oops
sorry
nomen
oops sorry! keyboard is playing up.
Good morning, friends.
Good morning neighbor
Is it raining up there, Molly?
Day 2 of rain, I'm so sick of it.
I don't mind rain. We have had about 1.5" and more on the way.
I wouldn't mind the rain if I didn't have to drive in it
Yes, that does change things.
I miss the days when the roads were empty and everyone was working from home.
Nice grid today.
hello all
Hi, lindy
how is everyone today?
morning, everyone
hi welki
Better now that I've got some food.
howdy people. not even getting halfway on the first tile.
this grid is difficult for me

Lots of weird words like...a metrical foot of a length equal to three short syllables...say what?
LOL
silly wabbit
Hiyas, kiddos.
He's in there.
howdy judi
Hello Judi
Really? There is a Hokie Carla who plays at the flip who gets big words very early.
oh yeah, I don't know how that happens other than I'm a night owl and not a morning person
What if your a morning owl? Or a night person?
I was in bed before 5:30 pm last night.
wow
Needless to say, I was not well.
are you better now?
I am. Had a horrible migraine.
Haven't had one in years.
ugh
Poor Bea! Something you ate or weird weather to blame for that migraine?
Or too much bourbon?
Probably the weather.
Anyone have a clue for the in9?
nope
You are this when grandma dies and leaves you something
someone with a legacy
yep - the one who gets the estate

Well, you know what they say about leading to water but not being able to make drink

I've been closing up our lake house. I don't want to buy any food and I'm trying to eat up what's here. Yesterday for lunch I ate a small piece of ham with an old hotdog wrapped in dill pickles and a slice of cheese. I am beyond swollen today.

any suggestions for deworming a cat ? we are feeding a feral cat and he has worms.. he will not let us touch him
you'd probably have to trap him and deworm him, it'd be an effort
buit how do you deworm him ??
isn't it some kind of medicine?
you'd have to get meds from a vet
shelly roche of TinyKittens puts ferals under a towel, this seems to work well at making them feel more safe and she'll like have holes cut in the towel through which to check on their ears or things like that
she's had a lot of success with that method, you can find info and vids and stuff on the TinyKittens website
thanks hurshy
going to have to list here
well glad I did, still have 8 I can't find. would've been here all day.
sammysmom, there are oral meds for deworming, no hands-on required just put it in his food and good luck!
It works with my cats
Partio...a patio for parties : D
great word Molly!
well, had too look up a couple but then monkeyed the final 2. some weird words.
Carla has finished! Strike up the band! Alert the media!!
hello again all
hi all. not an easy grid for me. 78 left and slogging alone
s
hey all, back to see if I can knock off these last 41
hey, keep us updated :D
Just made it to half way. Are there really another 90 words left
Please do. No one will sleep unless they know you got your last 41. Carla finished hours ago and she is still her to see.
hokie, we're getting news up here about the flash flood warnings in your area - scary stuff. i hope you and yours (and everyone else in NC) are okay.
evening all!
hi, dan
back for 60.
we have wifi! and a brand new router
nice. your lies paid off, Harry ;)
woo hoo HH
hah! whoever said cheaters never prosper?
thanks, welki. just reading about a campground about an hour north of us that people got swept away. 3 dead and 2 missing.
yikes
our street flooded our yard (as usual), but it did not come in our house so we are lucky compared to a lot of people in the area.
we got about 5" according to my rain gauge
49. going to the list - I can't focus anymore
just passed halfway. can I have stats for the right column E?
es7/32. it aint pretty
there was quite a bit of flash flooding near us. my youngest was not at school because he goes M/W, but they have had flooding on both sides of the school in the past, but they were able to dismiss at regular time today because the bridge on one side was still open.
whole lot of water in a short time. makes you feel like you're living in louisiana
wonder how mlfan is doing. I think she might've gotten even more rain.
done.
good night all. I'm toast.
i hope she's okay and that her husband is home
congrats, harry....
congrats Harry
i am back to finish....
hi/bye harry
back to find my last 32 words. hi all
hi peri, welki, dan...
hello welk
hi owl
had a crown prep today - and not the jeweled kind - anesthesia's finally wearing off
yikes. my dentist got insurance to replace mine and do two others. four. imagine.
$$$$ - you should send your dentist flowers
well, it will still cost me.
however, having been a victim of bad crowns- never had one from hi and not all dentists are good aestheticians.
i've been going to the same guy for 23 years - we're growing old together, and i suppose we've paid for at least one of his kids' university
:D
(and why, oh why, does terry bradshaw have to wear those hats?)
he is too funny
sa6 please

off to start supper
this is going to be a bitch to finish. see you later
geez......went through the list and still haven't found 10 words...
Yo* w*ll g*t th*m P*n
ty for your confidence, Molly....
You have more dedication to finishing these grids than I do
you mean i am more OCD... ;o)
i think it's time to step away and rest the eyes. cannot see any more now.
The only time I thought OCD about people playing this game was when people posted about canceling their entire day to finish the 744 grid.
i remember that grid....i was going to give up on it even though i had over 700 words....you actually helped me finish that one....
5 left, all vowels
I came to Babble late that day. I had to start it even though I knew I couldn't finish it just to have played it. If I remember it had a rediculous number of words starting with P.
That is funny Pen. I helped you finish and I didn't come close to finishing it.
i think you felt sorry for me....i was so close and yet so far....
that must've been during my hiatus
Over 700 words on that one is very close. And I would never feel sorry. Just hope that someone who wanted to finish could.,
just had a grid about 10 min ago on serpentine that was 5 words - 3 4's and 2 5's.
That was probably 10 years ago.
well i really did feel good when i finished... ;o)
I'm sure there was a sense of accomplishment
for sure!
there is a stink bug in my room and when it flies around it sounds like a lawnmower. so annoying.
what is your serpentine name, hokie?
What were you doing during your "hiatus" Carla?
can someone please clue the in 7?
in7 the wind
duh....ty....
Or you will in7 your rich uncles fortune
i am done....
evening all!
hi nerkii....
may I get a nudge on on7 and on the en6 that is not about affection?
en6/21 en+1st part of movie theater + vowel
thought I saw you there last night, ori. I am just CJHokie.
I guess just taking kids places, Molly. I got obsessed here and couldn't not finish a grid, so one day I just said I had to stop.
thanks april!
on 7......number + last three letters of Mr. Sevareid's (sp?) name....
ferns
oops :/
hmmm, on7 not clicking for me
