FWs lovely grid, most of the big word were easyto find
tired, my dear. As you can tell by my typing. Glad your neighbor to talk with .....I know she enjoys it.
WTG DIZGRANNIE !!

I never know, Rose. It's always a toss-up. How about you?
bottom half is great. feel free to shoot the top half. torn bicep tendon still giving me grief. breathing a little better. and GP ceased statin to see if the spasms and cramps stop. thus far good.
Well, seems like you are getting there, doesn't it?
i am. i just have to remember that fact... lol i forget how hard it used to be. you are so right. i must give thanx for where i am.
I know it's hard to wait but sometimes we just have to tie a knot in our ropes and hang on, Babe.
if it wasn't for the support from people like yourself i am sure i would never have made it. so many have been here when i ne4ed help and support.
fedora
oops... free clue
Thanks, I need that one.

Dear heart, I am going to get away from this screen for a while. Be safe.
you too sweetheart. try and get some rest. xx
Good morning babbles
Grannyrose how is sprite getting these days?
hey TQ. last i heard she is slowly getting her strength back. the tiny house is almost ready for the trailer. they are actively looking for their new forever home site.
I'm pleased to hear that, you two were always so chatty on here.
i miss her presence here so much. but we email, and sometimes video call each other. it's hard for her to move around nowadays.
Such a shame for her I'm sure you must miss her. Especially after you got so close when you visited
it hurts sometime unbearably. but with my health issues and her health issues we just have to settle for a long-distance friendship. we still feel when the other is in ne4.
Thats lovely to hear.
hello all - funny I think of Sprite often - I miss seeing her here - not sure what her health issues are but please send her good wishes for me
i will urshy. thanx for thinking of her.
ordo
sorry. another free clue
I rarely comment on chat, but I do read it, so when regular name are missing you do wonder whats happening in their lives.
Thats why I don't chat Rose
lol.... i'm not concentrating. my apologies.
No apologies necessary
well that's me done. ttfn. TQ nice chatting with you. urshy, you have nudged me to email sprite. last wrote to her 4 weeks ago. catch y'all at the flip. enjoy the grid.

Morning all! 70 to go....
it's a rare occasion when I find more 9's than 8's lol
It's a rare occasion when we have so many 8's and 9's.
true
This game is loaded with plurals that I didn'
Didn't think were words
well I hope these 8's and 9s magically come to me
They will.
oh, there's an 8
def will have to do a scroll through my list later because I just realized all those ones who do something words can be plural in here.
Just pt, plural, prefix and make it one who to many
arsehoed... not a word
I am shocked, bonkler
maybe it's arsehaed
lol
wouldn't the bride and groom be the weddees
It's really a pretty straightforward grid, once you get in the groove.
The Explorer is in the grid.
yes she is
Oh, and here I was looking for Magellan or Columbus
=)
Of course I shouldn't mention Columbus now that he has been branded OFFENSIVE
the travel guide(s) are also in the grid
and a comic strip by Gary Larson is in there too
thanks, luv!
that's an actual word
yeah some odd ones as usual with Enable
that one I can hear a soccer coach using - get on the * of the goal!
but more like the opposite of that
*likely
The one that got me was si8.70.
hmm, is that a compound with the same word we were talking about? trying everything here
ah, got it, thx
is the te 9 a compound word?
as an Italian who thinks we shouldn't celebrate Columbus, I am pretty glad he's been labeled OFFENSIVE. In all caps, no less. :)
te9 ends with what you do at a restuarant.
thanks Bea

we get groan-tougher as restaurants are still closed, 6 and a half months and counting ☻
hey ML
I didn't know you could get COVID from offering groans over the internet. Someone better tell the CDC.
I am amazed that enable doesn't consider those hybrid flowers to be one word
groans used to come easy for me..

just looked up and saw a frog on the window. thankfully it's outside.
I might see a rabbit or squirrel, but no frogs outside my window :)
I called the youngest over and he & I went out to look at it. neither one of us has ever seen one like that here. It's very shiny and bright green with some light green/yellow lines on the sides.
like this? https://tinyurl.com/vhnawaev
found another 8
yeah, maybe. can't see its belly because I have some frosted vinyl on that window
might be a tree frog
:)
you could pick it up
I've definitely heard those places but not really here.
they don't bite, aren't poisonous or anything
want to be gentle with them though, their skin is a lot softer than ours
it is on the skinny window above the bay window. The youngest wanted to climb up onto the window sill and get it but I said I'd try to make it jump down, but a yard stick on the other side of the window had no effect on it.
ni 5 clue pls?

20 to go...11 minutes :)

I have a meeting at 330, but it's going to be terrible. I think I will continue babbling :)
why will it be terrible?
they're going to tell us how to do "student centered learning"
what other kind of learning is there?
wouldn't a cow be ud5-ed?
teacher centered
new buzzwords
if you lecture and the students just listen, that's teacher-centered learning
lawd help us
you'd need to ask a teatcher hoke
are we going to milk another thread for puns?
yes, but we all know how to incorporate students into our lessons. this is just more new-fangled catchphrases
designed to enlighten us 18th century teachers
yes, coz I don't want the boobie prize
always some good mammaries in these threads
well, i mean, if you want to do truly student-centered learning, they want you to like, get them to ask their own questions and explore and test and all this stuff that's like great in theory... but in reality it just takes so long that you cannot cover all the content you need to cover, if you teach at a school where there is an amount of content to cover.
yes - project based learning. that was last year's buzzword
thankfully it died when covid began.
and in math, i mean, they're liable to just get it all wrong, because ... somebody needs to teach you what to do
still need 8 T's, where are these T's?
and if you have unmotivated students (who doesn't) or kids with behavior problems, and all the usual things like that...
3 Ts here
me too
some kids thrive on project based learning
1 T for me
found 1
anyway, it's all tools we all use. to command teachers to do one thing or another all the time is foolish
i agree harry :)
I still don't know what one who ta4 isn't a word
found a t
16 to go...but only 3 minutes
i felt like today, the way i was teaching, the kids that were at all willing to learn, got interested and were participating and learning. there are some kids that are just going to be difficult no matter what you do, but there's just no way to force them to learn if they are really determined not to
moo's about to turn into a pumpkin!
none of my tiles have more than 2 words missing
and 8 of them are just one word remaining
I have 3 with a lot, T, R, and a D
there are some tough ones. some just need a connection - and they make it with particular personalities
and @
W
OK - I'm going to this meeting. Haver mercy on my soul.
yeah... it's hard coming in as a long term sub this far into the year, which is my situation
that is definitely a tough role to walk into
I taught geometry once for a maternity leave opening. I made so many mistakes.
i didn't get all the shampoo out so i had to re_____, totally should be a word
I feel bad for the kids, but it was a great learning experience for me
my oldest son had a long term sub come in for Spanish I - and she didn't know Spanish. it was kind of a nightmare.
oh dear
the other Spanish teachers had to dumb down the final for that class.
well I knew geometry - just not much about teaching :)
i took a robotics elective in HS where right before it started, the teacher had a heart attack and had to have a quadruple bypass, so we ended up with a sub for the entire time, and he didn't know much of anything so we just kinda figured stuff out as best we could
and he struggled in Spanish II. We were actually just talking about it yesterday, he said most of his friends from that class failed Spanish II.
that sucks
guesses on my missing A?
i guess it is probably the same A i'm missing
just found the british butt so it could be another easy one
I'm also missing one A
that is suspicious
must be the government.
Harry and other teachers.... I feel your pain.....retired from teaching after 34 yrs....not sure I would have survived with all of this covid distance learning
it's been a bit of a challenge.
understatement of the pandemic
the terrific thing about it is being able to babble during faculty meetings.
I always thought I wanted to be a teacher, but my former teacher dad was like, it's not for everyone. Then I subbed one day in preschool and that was enough for me.
20 to go! bbl
47 still here
16 to go
2x4, 2x5, 2x6, 5x7, 2x8 and 3x9
for i, there's ir4, what's the other one?
in6
whoa whoa whoa, I thought moo was a pumpkin
sorry 7
ah ty
hurshy, somehow I found the in7 and had to ask for the 4 earlier
ha
now I'm a pumpkin
need 1 E on each E tile
have all the e's
well feel free to guess if you're still here
on the top one...a plural
or the last one
actually which e's are you missing?
one off each of the three?
okay then the bottom one is the last one
the left one is the plural
one from each E.
the top one...are easy
the last one as in, it means "the last one"?
I have 2 ed6 pl
I think he means the last one on his list
May I please have a clue for di7-32? Thanks
well that doesn't make sense, the ew words have to come last
oh sorry...no, it's not the last one
peach, similar to a de6
the one I was thinking of is an e5 it actually means the "formal content of a culture"
Sorry, hokie, don't have the de6 either....Thanks for looking.
ends in interest ****, or part of APR
found 2 T's!
well, i found half the 9s by myself as i went along
I have found 1 9 all by myself
what's yours
who knows, that was this morning
lol yes but you can look through your list
was scrolling through and just saw it. re9/84
mk i have that
do you want me to say what else i have?
I should hope so :D
sh9 (also a pt) and do9 (a plural, people who...)
it won't really matter if you say or not. I usually can't find big words unless I stumble onto them.
ok, not sure how I didn't have the sh, I had the 7
you guys have named all three I have
I am really struggling with certain tiles
I have 12 tiles I haven't completed
watching soccer but I may have to nap after this
sorry I couldn't elaborate on the clues...I had a window guy come
no prob
if you still need help, I can be a little more attentive
I have only grayed 4 tiles and they are all 1's or 2's
my only double figure grey is the Right corner D
still need 4 T's, 4 W's, 4 R's, 5 D's, and 3 H's, the rest are down to 1 or 2
found an H!
2 Ts, 1 W, 2 Rs (one from each tile), 3 Ds (one from the second and two from the 4th) and one H
how many UN words? I have 5 and 3 UD
one more you need

Hello Babblers, does anyone have a clue for the te9?
not me, sorry
nm. just found it.
It ends with how one eats a fancy meal.
That was my last word. So fireworks.
well done
Anyone need clues before I go?
just on the list so I'm good, thanks
Happy Babbling all.
cheers!
May I please have a clue for the in-7 beach? Thanks
ok. 16 to go.
think of the snookie show, gapeach
NM found it.
Thanks Harry.
yw :)
what about the TA8
I have a ta8. it's a weird pl
like an overdone obscene dress
rhymes with the plant "feed me seymour"
was trying to look it up and found it finally
found another 8. just missing one now
obscene is good clue
Oh, the Hepburn plant. Good clue Harry
my daughter had an imaginary friend named "slaudrey"
ok, looked up the last one, made easier by wht's clue. this was not one of my favorite grids
just randomly found a crazy 7. I am quite enjoying this grid.
different strokes
what you talkin bout willis
wow - that show would be uber-cancelled these days.
but a rich white man adopted 2 black kids that were orphans and they all became a family
yeah but it's so preachy - he gives them advice and he and that big sister are so condescending
kimberly.
just saw a minute of that the other day. kimberly came in from a ski trip where she met a boy and they just took long walks together.
eek!
she had a tough life that kimberly.
not sure how old she was supposed to be but I thought it was funny she'd just go off skiing by herself
isn't she one of the child starts that didn't make it?
yeah
arnold also. willis was in prison for awhille, I think - not sure if he's alive
Mrs. Garret did pretty well for herself though
I think willis is the only one still alive
well. 13 for later. gotta go get supper for the masses.
hagn
I had forgotten Mrs. Garret started on that show but I recently saw early Facts of Life where all the Drummonds came to visit her.
you too
Have about 30 minutes because I have to leave to get my second shot
still 16 to go
te9-60 please....thanks
sorry peach, don't have that yet
Thanks anyway, moo.
let me see if I can find it
woot woot! 2nd shot!
yep
ends in eats out, peach
so it does
well just one 9 to go
actually a weird plural to te6
same situation as the or7 I had to look up
oh yeah, had the 6/7
did you finish the W's, moo?
yes
my last w was a 9
ok, was wondering if you had both those
yep
had the moment, but didn't have the docks
do you still have D's?
yes, 3 D's remaining
there are 5 big D's together, so not sure you'd have 2 and not the other 3
I have two d8s
three d8s
I think your last 9 is a D unless I'm missing something else from chat memory
would seem a good chance
yep, that was it...had the PT
12 left
thought I had tried it, but guess not
bbl
T A FF R RR D O S H V
my last A was an 8
found an R
did you finish the 8's?
no
DI 7/8 please
to remove your review/grade
TY MOOL GOT THEM

Have re7 color, have re + bring into the army

prizes
those who eliminate something
Thanks for the Spanish!
Fw!!!! Tx!!!!
Whew!!!
yw
has te 9 been clued lately?
it's a plural, of a t7, but the ending is completely different
of the te 7 before it?
no, the singular is actually right after it
there's a t6/7 after it...and the 9 is the plural of both
hello friends
hey trif
hello!
i see, must figure it out
if you need a more direct clue, let me know TO
i thought some one said earlier it ends with what you do at a restaurant
yes, that is correct...but pural of that
thanks. damned shipworms.
yes, the dictionary seems to be infested with worms at times
this grid certainly is.
its is not the friendliest bigger grid I have ever met
got 10 to go myself
