* hugs * sprite. how are you today?
lovely phantom.... calender
hi sweetie, I am okay. Did a bit too much yesterday so am in a lot of pain. But today should be a lot easier, just pumpkin soup to make.
and how are you and Don?
still a bit puffy, and Don still coughing.
sorry to see you are in so much pain. glad you are going to have an easier day though.
I cooked for two days though, so tonight it is very easy. Tomorrow we go to Tim's new home, family day. And we will stay the night!
ooh. nice. is this the first time in the new house?
oh, we have such a fun present for them! We made them a junk drawer starter kit. Rob went to the thrift shop to get old things, and we had such fun putting it together.
yes, first time. I am also bringing a symbolic gift of salt, bread, wine, candle, matches and heat pads.
lol... what a brilliant idea!
lol at the junk drawer, not the symbolic gift.
no home is complete without a junk drawer :D
and no van dijk junk drawer is complete without balloons and .... what is that called in english? A bubbler? Soap water with a thingy in it through which you blow and then you get soap bubbles
i know. except the only two drawers still in my kitchen are filled with useful things like cutlery, and small cooking tools. we have a junk shelf, only it isn't really. it's the shelf with my recipe books etc on it, and Don found that if he pushed my books all the way back, there was shelf space for him to put things.
lolol yeah that is what happens if you do not have a proper junk drawer! I know for sure that Lisa does NOT have a junk drawer. So we put it all into an old tin box, they do not have to empty one of their very organised and neat drawers
* giggle *
please take pics, especially Lisa's face.
it will be so much fun :D
fireflies. This was a lovely, lovely grid!
guess that means I have to walk Nero. With a bit of luck, Rob will do it the other two times today. He is gonna pick up the breath measure thingy as well.
*hugs* my darling, sleep well
sorry i missed your fireworks honey. WTG SPRITE !!!
Allo anyone home?
phantom entrenched
are you sometimes amazed at words it won't allow??
Not any more. The Enable Word List is obsolete. It hasn't been updated in over 20 years and the words it does recognize are haphazard. Some French, not all French, etc.
ad
Id like to get hold of it and give it a good shake!
please let me help you do that Deeha
OK eberyone round my place!!
I would like to put the Enable Word List makers in a room with 10 Babble players. They would end up quivering.
ooooh I like that idea
I'd have to get rid of all the 'unenglish/US' words! That would cut it down a bit!
and the 'archaic scots'!
and the proper nouns like Pele- the only pele I can find is a footballer! Right getting of my high horse now - plenty of washing up to do!!
Well then I would get rid of all the unenglish UK words😊
pele...a small square defensive tower of a kind built in the 16th century in the border counties of England and Scotland
And technically they are all English since they have been incorporated into English dictionaries.
hello all
hi
OK MOlly, I thought the was peel; for some reason
how's it going kiani, better today?
enough to be back in office at least. this migraine is crushing my skull still tho, delightful
and currently fighting w pharm to figure out why my med keeps getting denied
delightful in the sense of dreadful
ugh, how annoying for you
are there fantasy fiction readers in this chat much?
good question
hey, one of my cat's name is in the grid today
some...depends on the author
what authors do you like, phaeton?
hah...now your going to make me think lol
I like the ones Nora Roberts has come out with.
Brandon Sanderson...Mistborn

Struggling to find la 8 let alone the 9. Congrats to you hrushy
it's a person who commits a specific type of crime, it's some kind of theft but idk what makes it different from other theft
is the la 8/9 two smaller words?
no
the crime itself would be a 7 letter word but it's not in the grid
ugh, re words can be so maddening
I am down to 1 + 2 + 2 R words
wow, way to go
1+2+5 here
do i need to find any RH?
phantom: nerd
haven't found any RH
i found another re pair
so now i am closer to your numbers
I'm out of ideas
also just need 2 A's to gray top row and seeing nothing
i need one there

hi, folks!
welki!
i haven't found any ae so far
brrr, it's been cold here! had to scrape the windshield yesterday, wipers were frozen to the glass - i was smart enough to start the car a few minutes earlier this morning
phantom - truculent
gtg ttfn all
hi/bye hurshy
go green wave!
we've had some frost warnings but I haven't seen any frost yet
and the higher elevations here in NC/TN got snow the other night
yeah, i saw the pics of the NC snow!
well I sure can't find the bottom e's or z's. and i know za6 is one.
ohh, you're looking too hard for them (i have both e words and one z, if you want help)
I guess I'll try again then first
(thanks for the za6)
every E I find is from a different one
go right
found the z4
got the e's, thanks!
is the z6 a weird one?
nm
would think of that more as a nickname
a little
now need one A for top row and 2 R for bottom row and 65 other words in between
and i need to start some laundry - we had covid, flu and tdap vaccinations today and i know our arms are going to be sore later on - later, toots!
and those e's helped with two u's
oh good luck! I felt like I had both covid and flu last year after I got those
ooh, found my upper left R!
Just got my covid and flu vaccines. Arm hurts
Great!
I didn't get mine together. Got them two weeks apart.
elder
phantom there

I sleep on my right side.
terse
oops
I sleep on either side or on back.
I have carpalosela
carpal tunnel. Right hand will fall asleep
the pharmacist said no problem with all vaccinations at once, but to stay hydrated and don't be surprised at soreness (ice pack and tylenol as needed)
Giving up on la 8/9. Just not seeing it. Have ones before and aftger but not those.
Got the 8 and 9!!!!!!! Wow. Whew.
afternoon

ty I was spelling them the wrong way
Clue pls for en 7 32 pts
plural of en6, which is to ingratiate in a loving way
Got that one moolingwa it’s the other en 7 32 pts
the other went in to
stats for the bottom E pls?
en6/21 and pt
thx champ
np. the c's are killing me!
The C's were a struggle.
Still need 11. GAHHHHHH!
"Oh, I love it when all I have left is 17 R's", said no Babbler ever!
17 of anything is annoying!
rehi. still have 15 c's left
they aren't fun
feels like I've looked in all directions
yep!
oh, there's a c4
just found 4 c's, now only need 9. only.
Down to 10. Only.
need 8C now, plus 8D and 8 right side L
phantom cultural
Yes!
I dare ruru to come here and tell me there's just one u
so it can't be a phantom
these d's are definitely my biggest problem. still need 5 + 8
only one U sorry
lol
ok, people...what is my missing A on the top row?
there is an al 6/24 that has to come from there, but don't know what it is
hmm, I have one that is a pl
sorry, that is ad
that must be it
Which do you need? Al or ad?
AL
the al 6/24 I have is similar to the st pastry
too many combos to get 24 points
there is an al 6-7 that I don't have either
those have to be from the lower then
I think so
because I don't have them but just need one from the top
still 48 left. 5-7-22-11-3 okay, I see the problem with this grid
me too -- it's too darned big
i hath returned!
the proportion of big words is too big
also I just said proportion 5 times in my head and still am not sure if that's right
hey hurshy
it is
but so far i've been finding it a pretty fun grid
found my missing R from the first one
oh what was it?
and do you have the AL6/24?
um, no
re6/18, we have it a bit but I'm not sure exactly what it means
ok got it
It's similar to the pastry. and plural
ah, chemistry
My clue was for the al24
hokie are you refering to the one that sounds like re + adolescent?
yes
oh then i am missing a different one
hmm, champ. I have the pastry but can't make it work.
idk what pastry you mean
i would have said it is like the place you said you hung out in your youth, hokie
al + vowel + de4/5
I thought she meant the st7
It's from the bottom A
and I did mean the st
huh. so there are two al6/24 then. got it, thanks
yeah, I need the other one from the top too
I have 2
well i just clued the other one hokie
The pastry is very ‘Sound of Music-ish’, usually apple
oh, missed that post, thanks both
Hi soodle!
top row gray! finally.
Hi Champ. 😊
oh hey me too
phantom: dunce
Hey Hurshy, Carla & assorted lurkers as well. 😊
now if I could just find those 2 R's for the bottom row
hi soodle :D
hey soodle
ooh, found one R!
what was it
like clothes put on again
ok i have that
do you have the one that looks like the s5 type of car?
yeah
and i've tried lots of things that i think you can totally do again that wouldn't go
same
re + give out cards, re + ____ away debris, re + twist your hair...
AND i still need two R from the RIGHT
same
oh i had gotten the impression you had found those while i was away
no, I just got back
ah
I mean a little before you, and I stayed a little after you left
gotcha
phantom: tenet
phantom reenter
yep
phantom declare
anyone know my missing U?
perhaps it is the same as MY missing U
perhaps
but if we've learned anything today, it probably isn't
ooh, form of the arm bone
what kind of form, i have singular and latin pl
like a descriptive but not the usual one
5/14
ok thanks got it
no def in the link
(because the enable nerds made it up)
um, there are two 6/7 combos, the one that is like the disney movie with a chinese heroine, and Lactaid UL5
gonna take a little winston break. BBS
phantoms: decade, decadent
Back post dinner. Starting on those 17 R's now.

LOL...
well i have to get going....goodnight all....
finally found on bestwordlist. they show a different def than hurshy's
good night!
btw, it says it means to pass on to future gens or transmit
but they list my definition first...
and then they put that
and they say that that one is archaic
oh, not on this one. it's the first one and then for the 2nd they say to translate.
people do not use it that way anymore
and they call both archaic
i literally went to bestwordlist and looked
can you share your link because that is a mystery
https://tinyurl.com/tvrrz52k
oh, I see the other one
I forgot they do that with the positioning
do what with the positioning
oh, center it vertically?
so you were just being ... um... a little bit of a cotton-headed ninny muggins
imma list. 14 to go.
I will list when/if I get to the 20s
A and 4 Cs, none fishy, that's a good start
1/3 D was fishy
1 E was fishy but i just thought i had put it in, must've mistyped earlier today
Rs were fishy
what was your A?
nm, just looked it up
should have found my R but there were just so many
Cant find the la 8-9 clue please
