I'm 1/2 way on all but the upper O. having trouble with that one.

Oh! I did not!
Thanks! And there ya go. 1/2 way on all tiles.
nicely done
I'm going to list. Got to get some sleep and tomorrow will be busy.
just got fo 8 thanks to my words
is it me? or has this grid got teeth?
it has a lot of phantoms, that's for sure!
oh dear god ! we have a group of travelers just arrived from South Africa. they have tested positive to the omicron strain.
oh no. Hope they caught it and contained it early enough!
blessings granny, it will be everywhere in a few weeks. It's in Hong Kong also....sigh
found a duck
Well, in a few weeks we'll learn that it already was everywhere, probably. But who knows if it's actually another nasty variant like Delta. Early days yet. (But I'm glad I wasn't traveling in South Africa these days!)
M9191. te travelers were already in quarantine when they were swabbed. please God, there are no slips between cup and lip.
Yeah.. but all the folks on the plane with them...
Also in quarantine, I read
That's what I mean, justafreep. The first ten cases were in South Africa, Botswana, Europe, Hong Kong, And they were all associated with international travelers. It's not really a South African variant. It was first discovered there....
or asked to isolate, really
we don't know where it originated from actually. but with all the contact tracing tech they have, hopefully we will find out soon.
Yeah, harpjane. Let's hope it's just a mutant that isn't going to change the trajectory in bad ways....
I need to listen to happy music now.
m9191, please turn up the volume.
how about a funny story?
<checks for chat audio feature>
Yes please!
Sadly 100s of SA travellers hoping to vist overseas family have just had all the plans cancelled -- just like that
Oops sorry that was not a funny story
i sent my 7 year old grand-daughter flowers for her birthday. i chose a smallish posy, colourful. right?
Starting with Katrina and the Waves Walkin' on Sunshine
Ok
Yeah, Ursh. That's just horrible.
Did she say "granny, i'd rather have the money" ? LOL
well the florist recognised me as a returned customer several times over, so up-graded the small posy to a magnificent bunch of flowers, bigger than Sophia.
Wow!!
That is so sweet! When was her bday?
Daddy is trying to take a pic, and says to Sophia " i can't see your face" and this little voice says " i'm here, behind the flowers.
My granddaughter turned 8 on the 20th, but they didn't do a party. We had cake after thanksgiving dinner.
Ha ha!! That's so cute
her b'day was in October. 22nd.
At least we all have much more connection to friends and family overseas than we did in the past. Let's make the most of that until the sea bed churns, destroys all the seabed cables and cuts us all off re internet.x
aaahhh Jacula, ever the optimist.... loll
Well, I was trying to be optimistic, rose.
roflol... thank goodness for that.
Sorry the scientist in me looked ahead! lol
We're waiting for the West coast to drop into the sea...
And the caldera in Yellowstone to blow...
So... what's YOUR happy music?
Oh don't talk to me about that Yellowstone caldera - it's been worrying me for years. LOL
I'm not as fussed as I was when my daughter was living in Rexburg Idaho.
egad, that fo 8 is a weird word.
aha, that's 'cos i know it as starting with an s.
I just listened to Alizee Blonde.
Right granny? I was looking at it thinking "well, that's not right!"
I'm really tempted to post a link to a Scandi Death metal band in reply to what's your happy music. lol. But I won't, but rock is my preferred music.
Ha ha.. We listed to all types here. Although I'm not much into screamo, Arch Enemy - The Eagle Flies Alone has a really good instrumental.
hmph. the or 5 i was typing needed a vowel on the end. * slinks away muttering to herself *
do you music folk know everynoise.com? It's utterly remarkable for finding... all sorts of genres you don't even know.
I don't. I'll look into it!
it's wild
zooz has me listening to techno synthetic funk stuff (not sure how to describe it:) )
and i am done. thank-you to all for your good wishes. i may be on tomorrow. depends on the hospital wifi which is pitiful at best... loll
Good wishes rose!
I have 13 to go
I hope it's a success for you!
actually looking forward to the food more. this hospital masquerades as a 5 star hotel.
good night everyone. see you on the other side. xx

something odd about this grid...?

oops - didn't look at the time
Hi welki.
hi scrabs
My hands still smell of the onion I shopped on Nov 23.
* chopped
don't know if it's legend or fact, but i've read that, if you have something that's solid stainless steel and rub it between your hands, it'll take the odor away. you can even buy blocks of the metal for that purpose.
lemon huice or rub with back of tablespoon
and hello
well hello owl (you've read the same stuff :) )
I don't have lemon juice but can use a spoon.

Sounds delicious, Owl.
not generally a fan of things with raw red onion, but i liked it. may make for party next week.

No iceberg lettuce salads,

No meat.

i, heartless grinch that i am, heard the question asked on the "news", "will there be enough gaming consoles for everyone who wants one?!" completely unmoved
at least we got to have thanksgiving, after two years.thankful for that.
Life will end without enough XBoxes.

Name that proper noun: where part of Return of the Jedi takes place, where the Ewoks reside.
Endor!
what a life waster those things are xboxes
I just bought Endor National Park stickers for my car. I love Endor.

Haha.

sorry
bottom row gray!
No probem.
I have no idea how to break it down either.. so when she asks I'll split :D
Ru, do you like your refrigerator?
yeah.. There are things I don't like about it
Silly question, but I'm looking for a new fridge And can't decide on one.
What so you have and what do you not like about it.
i have an upper end Kitchenaide.. but it's really hard to clean
i hate ones that are split down the middle
anything that drops through in the freezer is unreachable.
the shelves are really hard to clean and collect debris
and I have to change the water filter too often too
other than that it's ok
Is it a French door with freezer in the bottom?
yes.. that's what i have
too much plastic in it too
we had a Kenmore like that. so hard to clean.
I def want something easy to clean. Been looking at Samsung.
I said I won't do that config again. I just didn't like it.
you need a degree in Rocket physics to change the filter in kitchenaide
We have a side by side now. IHATEIT!
yeah i don't see why anyone would want side by side
was pretty easy to do that in the kenmore, but I was always driving to Sears to get them. then I discovered you can use LG ones and I ordered them from Amz
i really want a sub zero.. but ...not enough room
I always hated side by side but the house we're in now has one and I like it better than our other.
if you put something on a cookie sheet and need to chill it... nope, not gonna happen
Yes, sub zero would be awesome. Out of place in my dated kitchen though.
yeah, haven't had to do that yet in this one
i have a smallish kitchen so that won't work for me
we left our 3 fridges behind and now just have the one
My brother just sold his house that had two sub zeros.
oh god.. that would be my dream come true
also hard to chill something on a cookie sheet in a french door bottom freezer. I always used one of the other fridges.
next house.. TWO OVENS
They bought the house from a Mexican drug lord who built it for his wife.
Yes, I would love two ovens.
lots of mirrors in the house bea ? :D
Black and gold marble...floors, walls, stairs...
bea to her brother: do you like your house Brother: yeah but we keep finding straws everywhere
It wasn't straws. Guns and ammo.
And shoes.
guessing your brother lives in Florida?
oh
No, this was in a podunk town in KS.
wow.. amazing
The shoes where on the property, not in the house.
He didn't live there long enough to find any bodies.
yikes

Hello All. Back from the Smokies. Had a great time. Got both sons and their families together.
Hi again. The people here are still fun, but the game not so much. It seems like there are a lot more 'words" with no definitions and unusually spelled words.
Hi Sophie - glad you had a good Thanksgiving
Hi Nan. Yes, we did.
I have 4 words left that I would really appreciate some help with: an 6/18, en 6/21, in 5/12 (2nd one), or 6/21
I don't have ANY of those yet, nan
sorry, I have none of those
I bet the Smokies are beautiful this timeof year, Sophie
Yes, they were. But there were several areas were the trees were completely dried up, especially the pines.
We have a lot of pine bark beetle disease in the Rockies
we had a summer heat wave that was really hard on the coniferous trees -- maybe there as well
en 6 - 'this will ----- in tears. plus consonant in middle.
*the trees that weren't scorched by fire that is
sorry mab - that clue is going right over my head
Nan-----A plus a swollen area the clue for AN5
we had a heat wave but it's mainly from decades old fires, combined with warmer winters. Two weeks of serious cold would slow down the beetles
the finish plus first 3 of grapefruit skin?
have that one, ty Sophie - looing for the 2nd one
ty mab
sorry sophie - looking for the an 6
My sister lives close to the Rockies. The most recent Estes Park fire has finally been contained.
I have an AN 6 for 18. Is that the one you need?
oh, sorry - my eyes. I don''t have any either...
AN6 rub the head with oil in a religious ceremony....alternate spelling
yes the beetles are devastating and the chemicals that kill them (diazinon and malathion) have been banned after a huge outcry from the environmentalists
ty sophie - feel kind of stupid that I couldn't see that
hope the 2nd in 5/12 isn't a fish too
don't feel stupid, I'm already using Lickety
I've been using lickety for the last 38
ah - found it - a babblet
*!*~*!* it helped to know that the or 6 comes from the 2nd row o. Thanks for the help everyone :)

the other 8 is FO......musical term I had never heard of, and I'm pretty good on musical stuff.....it's Italian
yea, glad you got it, UN
may have to google that one. gonna break and go help hubby with Christmas decorations.
clue for EN 7?
en7 - to sign a check
oops, no.... wrong one EN6
NOT the last one
(wonders if she's alone) ok, 19 left, bbl
fo8 is usually abbreviated as "fz" (or "ffz", etc.) in music, or as "sf" or "sfz" (short for the same word with an 's' on the front, which means the same thing, but suddenly). It means forcefully accented, and brass players get it a lot.
any clue for the di7?
di + a famously explosive glycerin
thanks!
i would love any o clues. i only have 3 of the 10....
three of the oo are what a sore will sometimes do. I don't have the first oo

the other would usually start with en
to put your stamp of approval on something
thanks
nice to see you ursh, how are things in Durban?
all OK thanks jane - living one day at a time like the rest of the world
yah that's for sure
is your tourism back at all?
no the new variant was found here first so UK USA and Europe have closed borders - poor travel industry will take another beating this year
IYour beaches are so beautiful it would almost be worth having to quarantine 10 days. But they still wouldn't let us go.....
100s of people were hoping to vist family overseas or have family from overseas this Christmas - but no all cancelled
I'm sure it's awful, let's hope it is contained soon. i have a friend who planned for years to go home to a small town outside of Durban. He was finally ready to go in March 2020. Still hasn't made it!
vaccinations here are a problem - only about 20% fully vaccinated - lot of resistance to vax among all groups
I am sorry to say we have lots of resistance here in the western US also. It's embarassing since so many nations don't have any access
govt is meeting to discuss possibility of making it mandatory for certain activities - we will see over the next few days - fortunately have not gone into hard lockdown still remaining on level 1 for now
over here making it mandatory doesn't help.....
ti6/21?
can + muslim religious day
thanks
