just found a blank - must be the eu 7
well i'll say this nan - it was very fitting that you mentioned the eu7 and wished us GOOD SLEEP in the same post!
oho, un7 (with all the red boxes i have no idea if that was called or not)
well at least it is not the forever sleep!
eu7 literally means good sleep :D
too tired to find it, hursh - it will keep

Good morning, friends.
Morning, all :-)
morning Une & all. sanish (adj) what I am, most days of the pandemic
We can all hope to keep sanish, dan. Maybe soon it will be over.
Happy Holidays Babble people.
Happy last day of the work week, Molly.
Whee!
Will you be baking and cooking on your days off?
A little. My family has chosen not to gather for Christmas : ( so I am sending some cookies with their gifts.
It will just be the three of us as well this year.
But, I've been baking up a storm as I deliver to the neighbors.
That is nice of you. I'm sure your neighbors appreciate it.
Sad holiday. So many people missing their kids and grandkids.
There are also those missing their loved ones that didn't make it through the pandemic.
Not much to be Merry about.
really stumped on a couple of these vowel tiles - can I have just the stats for the O?

Un7.....hair hasn't been cut (found it!)
Don't worry Une. Sooner or later the French will get hungry. : D

Just incredible to imagine the tons of perishables.....
Hi all
I had to really think about that hair hasn't been cut thing
Hee hee
Off to the kitchen for the day...
finito! thanks lickety and all cluers
good norning all -- guess we are having a white christmas !
does anyone have a clue for that eu 7 please?
I saw something earlier that said it had to do with sleep but I haven't been able to figure it out
yes - just the definition = good sleep, but no idea here. It would probably help if I knew some latin or greek!
wonder if it starts like a great feeling of happiness
and is it a plural? what's the other e from that tile? I hadn't found either.
I was trying that too carla
me too
EU6 ends in the 1st 3 of "not far"
thanks montreal :-)
and plural for the EU7 - it's the word "sleep" that got it for me
ok, thanks mont. that looks kinda like the opposite of can't sleep word so that tracks
there is a us 5, but don't sea a way to put an e in front of it
not can't sleep word but you know what I mean
np luv & carla
got it - ty mtl
nan, if someone has sleep *, they may use a CPAP

sandshot - what I have to use when I play golf
just found my missing L, that I know I entered and got the green light when I entered it this morning. makes me wonder how many other words aren't really there.
Babble drops words already played all the time. One of the reasons I have lost my love of playing. It gets old re-entering words every day.
I know, it is annoying!
disnap - to wake out of an afternoon slumber
it's 95% of the time 4 letter words too
Back when I had more time, I was copying my found words and pasting them into a word document every time I would leave the game. When I came back, 10 or more would be missing.
what's weird is I'm not closing it out just leaving the tab open
well I am stuck at 18 left
I don't close out either. I never sign out. That is why I am often accused of "always being here". And yet, words drop.
yeah, weird
oh goody, a 6 letter word that I know the first 4 letters of plus the point total and yet can't get it
whew, finally done
oh my lord need the second ea 5/10
oh duh its a 4/10

Ah, fire truck Santa just drove by. It's officially Christmas. : D
we had fire truck Santa on Sat. Winston was not a fan.
to 6/21
I love it that the firehouse folks get to have fun during the holidays. They work so hard all year long.
kinda like a heavy weight, bleugirl
got it!
I'm not sure if our fire truck santa is actually the firehouse folks or something our neighborhood hires. the fire truck itself is modified and had something painted on it. they only started this last year.
FIREWORXXX!
Our fire truck Santa comes straight from our local volunteer fire department.
well, our neighborhood is in 2 different counties with a fire station from each less than 2 miles away, so I'm not even sure which one it would be
well done, bleu
I know folks who work at our local fire house. They love doing this Christmas stuff.

Snape, Harry Potter's hated Potions master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
(Defense Against the Dark Arts only in year 6)
Yep, I tried that word yesterday, hurshy! All done now so just her to give clues for a short while, if needed.
hey jacs, howzit?
Morning all
Hiya hursh! Feeling Christmassy despite both my kids ringing and dumping their anger and frustration on me 'cos no other trusted person to say all that to. Took me down for a while, but due to my lovely Paul, I'm fine again now, despite neither asking how my sprained ankle was doing.
Hi Ursh!
all hail Paul!
and how IS your sprained ankle doing?
Wondering if you had a view of the Christmas star on your side - we had thick cloud cover so no view at all
i didn't here in New England, clouds defeated us as well, though the trees might have done it even without clouds
Hurshy - Yes, all hail Paul at the moment. Ankle is much less harshly painful than it was a few days ago, Feels like it's on the mend.
Ursh - No view of The Alignment in UK tdue to cloud cover, but weather forecast does look good for clear sky on Christmas Eve.
sheesh, many "normal" words that I just didn't see because I was looking (and missing) the oddball ones... Yay, Jac! hope all mends w/o problem!
amelu - you sent me off looking for without as a grid word then!
And I say that as someone who finished the grid some hours ago! ROFLOL
Addicted? Moi? Non!
LOL! I live that daily!
That's Babbleaddiction for you, amelu!
Anyway, as I was saying... any last minute clues needed,since I'm here and still awake at totally stupid am?
I've been watching the planet pairing (trio for those who still consider Pluto a planet) for months, now... Of course, cloud cover on short term events but they have been working toward this apex for quite some time... (yes! babbleaddiction is the proper term, lol!)
Of course Babbleaddiction is a word, all we old timers know that and sit back and watch newbies succumb to it.
amelu - for how long could one be able to see the "big star" - we are going up into the mountains for a week tomorrow and am wondering if there is still something to see with the naked eye ?
that's 300 points (if my muddled brain is tallying correctly, lol).
But, what I will say re the addiction and perhaps talking to other players on line whilst indulging in that, is don't do what me and Ren did and ignore your instincts. Ren and her hubby died in a fire the night we did that. :(
Still not forgiven myself for that.
That's part of the reason I rarely chog in here now, or on any other char place with other players.
I originally thought it was Venus showing up a bit late but discovered how far off I was... when you consider that it happens about every 20 years, you probably have a hot minute (day or two?) to be able to enjoy their closeness...
*chatm I meant, not char.
Always listen and heed the little voices.
No one seems to need clued at the end so I will sign out before all the obvious clues arrive. Prefer to work the grid out for myself, mostly.
They're usually spot on, unless you're delusional (and even then, they're probably spot on)
Agreed on that. I'll scroll back when stumped but generally have no rhyme or reason for my monkeys work...
Enjoy! Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/etc. if I don't catch you again prior!
Merry Christmas all!
and to all a good night!
