Good morning, carla.

I have too much to do today for a grid this big
well, 96 left. nowhere near HOET. TTFN.
ahhhhh g'morning
Rs Ravaged!
surprised there isn't more chatting with this nice big grid
we're all done hursh.. we're just waiting for you to finish
ahhh
i just started
might take me a while cause my eyes keep tryna go back to sleep
found a promising suffix
:D
name that proper noun! Levi of jeans fame
strauss
ding ding ding!!!
good morning all. is the sh9 a compound?
yes
and it's a plural
may I have a wee hint pls
someone who flaunts a talent
nm
found she sh8 and sh9
but ty ru
well at least I got the clue out before you found it
and hursh
that's always an accomplishment ru
it's actually a miracle most times
sh9? Certainly none of them around here. 😊
bbl
I keep my talents to myself being modest and all..
not a single one Molly!
done with first pass, 31 to go
that was me too hursh.. i stalled at 31
that's a good run hurshy
and ru too
Been watching the US Open on ESPN. My cable provider won't pay what Disney wants so they have cut it off.
well, let's see what we can pick off
i have ir4, anyone have the other i word?
tennis or golf, bea?
tennis
i have a friend who is very into tennis
cable is such a rip-off bea
It really is. If I could figure out how to get football without it, I would cut the cord.
i get most games on my Roku device streaming from YouTube
I know. We tried some of our streaming services as well but it's still not showing.
The only reason we keep cable is for Mom.
my parents do the youtube tv thing, but idk if it's really all that much cheaper or what
ah.. got it.. she comes first :D
it's waaaaay cheaper hursh at least for me
cool
so, i have 3 of the 4 U words, any thoughts about what i might be missing?
Ru, do you get all your local games?
I was paying $165-$170 a month for Cable with AT&T and now only $79 with YouTube. I do get my local games
have I ever mentioned I hate ATT
us6 hurshy
it's sad when you think about the days when it was just a perfectly fine, respectable phone company, isn't it
ok bea thanks will look!
oh yeah.. and it's compounded by exorbitant taxes from my state that increase bills by 40%
oh! got it
i'm missing one lower W, any thoughts on that, anyone?
the sound of wind moving?
i have wo5/20
OH gosh it was a real easy one
to slow a horse
no it was just the spiders' homes
silly me
ha
but meanwhile i found more Bs and now i have no more than 3 words left from any given tile
i gotta go to work.. have fun
Speaking of insects...one of my pollinator gardens has become a nursery for swallowtail caterpillars. Counted 15 yesterday.

good morning everyone :)
I’m so happy to have a large grid today, It seems that all I’ve seen latelyare smallgrids under 200 words.
it is a challenge to get it done
hello nan!
True, but to get nearly 1/3 of the words when first opening the grid is highly satisfying!
Hi sani & nan
and another third for plurals
hi Nef!
hi saanich -- you still getting smoke from the fires? Are the fires on the island out?
today is clear but expecting smoke from the Interior. It's been less than I first thought, so far. How about you? Did you have ash in the garden? Is it smokey?
some are out or contained
some fine ash. Still smokey, but betterin the am. 98 AQI right now which is worse than yesterday. We have been getting some rain so they are doing controlled burns to try and contain the McDougall Creek fire.
those firefighters are incredible. Glad you got some rain. Good luck with the smoke; it's so full of terrible stuff. We had a spectacular long thunderstorm the other night. Unfortunately it started fires, about 20 -30
yes - I saw that on the news.
time for breakfast. bbl
found the 8-9 :)
Wonder why you can't add the ab4 ending to sh5/12? I know...no logic in the enable dictionary. But still! #foul!
82 left and slowing down
perhaps because anything and everything is sh9, champfit? it would be a useless word if everything is sh9 and nothing is not sh9.
i mean i suppose abstract nouns aren't... like friendship and honor and stuff... but still... idk. just brainstorming.
Ha! Just saw this hurshy. I
This place is certainly sh8ab4. People sh8 here all the time. 😊
help please with the S under the W.
id do not think I will finish this It takes too much time

The other one is fire a gun again

thanks, that will help me focus. need to dust off the monkeys
there we go! Thank you!
yw
nice to know you are still here.
have you started back in school?
yes, but only just. Two days of PD last week, then two student days. Four days of kiddos next week
I am only covering a maternity leave this year, so I will be out on the street again in September
sorry, november
I hope you have a great school year!
oh
thank you! I am teaching 10th grade, and it is certainly a welcome change
I hope life is treating you well?
just fine, thanks. I hope you too!
ty!
just finished water canning some chicken soup I made, listening and counting the seals popping :)
sounds satisfying
it is! I lost my health insurance when I lost my job in June, so every little thing to save money helps!
sare
oops, sorry!
I heard Charlotte schools had 521 teacher openings. crazy.
oh no way! The craziest thing I have heard recently is a teacher on tik tok reading some new standards put out somewhere that were so micromanaging and clearly insane that I cannot believe ANY ONE still works there!!! No children who read below grade level can read out loud, as it models disfluency. A whole class check must be taken every four minutes. I mean, NUTSO stuff
holy cow
its getting so bad
I was just telling my DH about our dear departed Torgone tonight....that's what reminded me to wander in here for a babble
well, I'm glad I saw you
I am glad too
think I am going to leave my 31 and go to bed. good night, and come back again!!
I might. From what car tells me, a certain party still spoils the babble
my life has enough funk in it as is. babble used to be an escape from stress, but alas, those days are long gong
gone
represent!
hello gwen! another long time friend! how lovely
hi trifoso! and today the grid represents Detroit
how so? not being there, I don't see
you know 212 is NY, well, 313 is Detroit LOL
ahhhhh! how fun!
doubt either of mine will ever make it in!
there would be a mutiny!
856? LOL
781!
or 617
holy cow
I know we have had over 600s in the past
well, i have greyed the bottom row, and a couple of random tiles. I think that's it for me today.
