night, nan
Not sure who is on this late, but just wanted to say hello
Aint nobody here but us chickens....
Hi Min, early afternoon here. How are you?
cheep......cheeep
Hello dofith! I am doing well, despite my insomnia. I am a bit nervous about a simple procedure I have tomorrow,
I do hope that all is well with U in the land down under!
That's understandable. I'm having a cataract done next Mon. Doesn't worry me at all, but I know some folk freak out.
I am sure all will be well tomorrow, Minveryork. Sending you peace.
the trouble with nurses they know to much. it's like the mafia. you can never leave....
Hello Bugsaw! How are you doing. It's nice to see U hear!
Allgood here, thanks. Finally, a lovely sunny day; my garden beckons...
i'm in a spin because my pain doc is going to inject the nerve bundles in my upper back next Thursday. under anaesthetic of courese.
I am well, thank you. I only play grids under 250 now because I was spending too much time on the computer obsessing about finishing.
grannyrose, does that mean that your pain should be eliminated? I sure hope so.
I have not been here in ages! I miss babble, but my three jobs keep me very busy w/little time to visit Babbleland.
Three jobs is 2 too many but we do what needs to be done to pay the bills. I hope you like all the jobs.
Thank goodness for anesthesia! I get Propofol tomorrow.
it means my upper back pain shol be under some sort of controlo. i have found out that i only have 5 discs worth of cartilage left inb my entire spine. it's all bone rubbing on bone.
I understand that, Bugsaw - have to remind myself every day that the sky won't fall down if I don't finish a grid!
min, just lie there and think of England....
I had Propofol once. I didn't remember a thing!
grannyrose, sorry to hear you are in so much pain,but I'm so glad to hear it will hopefully go away soon.Good luck!
yeah, prop with midaz... great mix
I am so sorry that your back is so badly damaged, granny. Bone on bone pain is horrible. I sure hope this procedure lasts a long time!
nurse's back with a vengeance.
i8f i do get some relief then doc knows how to tackle the issue with a long range fix.
So I have to be up in about 3 hours to drink some "magic" potion in preparation for procedure. Nice to chat w/you all briefly. Good luck grannyrose and take care everyone
Oh now I REALLY hope it works for you. A long term fix is the best.
Blessings Minveryork. The potion will probably be the worst thing.
* holding Min's hand * that stuff is lethal. make sure you have a clear path to the loo.

th4 looked it up. What a load of rubbish. Who makes these things up??!!!!
Morning, Deeha
Good morning-and to use a proper Northern saying - chukkyegg!
otic
did it again sorry
chuck an egg back at ya
it means roughly dear or honey
what language?
Hi Deeha and IG.
hi, Scrabs
like your dogs. I am too old to get a dog now but given a choice i would love a large hairy lurcher. Northern English!!
chukky egg not the lurcher!! Hi Scrabs
hope there are no large hairy lurchers lurking nearby
The area th4 is purported to come from
if there was one lurking I would drag it in and claim it was a stray needing a home
spoken like a true dog person
lunch break. Our little town has a French Fair yesterday and i Bought lots of french cheese so I am going to stuff my face with those again today!
quas
I wish it were a free clue for you but it's not a word.
most of one, tho
or 2
deeha, consider adopting an elder dog--just talk top any shelter. I have 7dogs right now--could not iimagine living without dogs
all of my dogs were dumped -- we live in the sticks
toat
a good friend just adopted one--and they are having a blast
qu
thanks Donna but last yrar I moved into sheltered housing. I was allowed to keep my rwo cars - dog subt =
continued!! - substitutes- but when they pop their clogs I cant replace them.
I could not imagine having to shelter, feed and pay the vet bills for seven dogs.
Not to mention the bathing and grooming involved.
2 cats are more than enough for me
first pass done. 50 to go.
I would love to have a big dog. But only if I had lots of land.
40. bbl!
Marco is our last Bichon for that reason
Morning all. help fa8 please
Someone just mentioned that Bob Dylan is 81. Damn. That doesn't seem real somehow.
It is an extension of fa6/30
my neighbor across the street has 3 cats and two dogs
ok need to look for fa6
so close to fashion
Whew. Made it before the one second buzzer.
I think my middle brother has more than that, maybe 3 cats and 3 dogs
ty Molly got the fa6 and the fa8
I don't know how people manage that many animals.
me either Molly. my neighbor lives in a small house and also has two young adult children living with her
and found fa7 too
well, his house smells so bad inside it almost made me sick last time I went in. and can't really do a lot of trips unless you find someone to come feed them.
I especially don't khow how people in small homes do it. I get it in a big, farm style house with lots of property. I see people in my condo complex walking two extra large dogs and don't know how they manage that in such small space.
Yeah Carla, the smell would definitely get to me.
did I tell you about the time we were at a motorhome campground and there was a golden retriever breeder with 4 goldens? I can't even imagine all the fur in that one, plus how do they all fit?
oh, the company that made the calculator watch and electronic keyboards is here
Today, I am grateful for Lickety's clues
that's a little ominous, a lot of weird words today?
yep .. weird words for me
good to know, won't waste all day trying to find a bunch
I wonder if the CEO of that company is Harry's other neighbor
why, who's harry's other neighbor?
The CEO of New Balance owns the house across the street from him
oh
Weird .. my name is in the grid ..lol
oh, you get a tiara!
You get to wear the tiara today.
No high dollar types in my neighborhood. I live on "the other side of the tracks" 😊
Thank you ☺
Ha! I've got you beat.
Yes Bea, but at least you live in a beautiful, historic home.
What are the stats for the single T?
to4/4
ty
Look at that. Someone asked for stats, and someone gave stats, not a clue. Progress.
phantom: satiate
hand historic, for that matter!
bottom row grey!

not sure why rhotic isn't in enable
hi folks, a retro newbie here
nice to meet you
hi, bird, welcome back(? I assume that's what retro means?)
yes, after a long long time, ten years or so? thanks Hokie carla
well, it might take a few days to remember all the weird words and get back into the swing of things, but good luck.
thank you carla
I don't even live in brooklyn any more
I guess I'm a mind reader then for calling you bird instead of brooklyn ðŸ˜
lol
may I add you as a friend carla?

im a repeat retro rookie myself. heh
haha, howdy, Eva
howdy hokie!
hi eva!

is this the same game that used to be called psychobabble?
not that I'm aware. you mean officially or by the chatters?
4th row gray. hurshy, are you here?
according to reddit, "Remember Popcap's Psychobabble? You can still play it online as Pseudobabble! ripten.com/2008/1..."
I think that's something else
this has always been boggle/scrabble hybrid
yes, not the same
what's up hokie

duh, saw it as soon as you said that
I'm still missing a q too :)
awesome!
1-2-1 palindromes still rule!
now need A CCC RR Q SSSS TTT - 2-6-4-2
I ended up with (non-covid) bronchitis so it's less than ideal but I'm finally feeling better today!
if I could just find 2 5's I'd have a palindrome
mine are SACS
oh, that stinks
SAC
I keep wanting risque
found one R
a plural of course
got my A!
got my C!
there's the other R
last one is S5 but there's so many directions to go for S
absolutely colossal
sa5/12?
that is the first word on my list
thought maybe you missed it since you missed the D
NA indian girl?
well but it would be hard to get the 6 without the 5
yes i have that
well, I didn't have the 6, but you are right
quad burner?
yep
i'm just gonna look at the list
emotionless?

congrats on the finish. still 11 left here.
well ok then why were you guessing all the normal words lol
there are a lot of 5's, hadn't noticed that one in my list when I was guessing
ah
think I will take a break. TTFN.
dang it, i thought bookroom was gonna get me to genius but it's not a word
oHO got it
The bookroom comment is about the New York Times Spelling Bee game if anyone is wondering. Chat here can get confusing when it becomes about other games.
phantom : Fascist
Phantom: scatologist!
ruru!
carla!....hello all....
pen!
ooh, found 2 words
! ! ! ! ! !
molly!!!!!
i have never seen you so excited, molly... ;o)
and another - 8 left
64 here...
The class on the overuse of the exclamation point will begin in 20 minutes. Drinks will be served afterward to those who can properly use the punctuation.
woo hoo!
but I am excited to see ruru and pen, that's why I use it
that is proper usage
Note: I am joking with Carla and Pen. No one else needs to jump in with their grumpy comments.
:oD
LOLOLOL on that exclamation point!!!!! (second lol). I just got my book back from the editors and while my exclamation points were ... uh, on point, I clearly am clueless when it comes to proper use of quotation marks! LOL!
ha
Carla, I would suggest if you are that jazzed about seeing Ru and Pen you may need to think about some other interests.
what is your book about, ch?
🤣
I hope it is not about quotatiojs
Or quotations
Pen, the title is true. you can check it out at www.truecampbell.com. Publishing date tba. :)
Molly, no, a bit darker than that. But good point! lol!
i KNOW correct punctuation usage...but i prefer to season my typing with my soul.
Are you self publishing?
i must have missed your mention of the title...
Nicely phrased, Eva. Molly, no, agent shopping. Title: true. website: www.truecampbell.com
ty, ch...
Agent shopping? So you don't have a publisher yet?
you are most welcome, pen.
the book sounds quite interesting...
No, not yet. In truth, I haven't started yet because I wanted to have the book edited and formatted properly first. Agents and publishers have changed their game quite a bit since the advent of the internet. Now, authors are asked to have a 'platform' (blog, social media, articles, etc etc) before even submitting. Very different from when I was younger.
thanks, pen. My hope is that people who read it will benefit from my experiences. I shy away from 'self help' because what worked for me may not work for someone else.
that's a good thought...
i have hit a wall with 22 left....taking a break...bye all...
rehi - reckon I'll just list for my last 7
well, I should've gotten some of those, but others, nope
