Ayyyy poor thing...bet that hurts...See you later..

1:01 am

Debs40ish

Cya x

1:03 am

brandyjack

Had no use for strident garbage that came in with the 80s. David Cassidy is I think 70's. One or two of his pieces were good, the rest were just variations on a theme. I liked the Beach Boys, Abba, and disco in general.

1:04 am

Debs40ish

You a bit of a John Travolta Jack?

1:05 am

brandyjack

Couldn't dance if my life depended on it.....

1:05 am

mab

I don't know any music from the '80s. At all. Anyway, Meryl Streep is my icon from Sophie's Choice, 1985, I think.

1:06 am

brandyjack

And way too smart to ride a bulll......

1:06 am

tbear

Yep.....Abba were good. My brother loved them. Ok I forgive you....Lol...ooops toast burning...

1:06 am

Debs40ish

I used to luv gettin on the dance floor.....still do

1:07 am

mab

I do looooove to dance.

1:10 am

Debs40ish

I need cuppa...brb

1:15 am

tbear

Two breakfasting babies....so funny...one woke up saying ' How depressing ' and the other with a huge smile (always)....so different!

1:16 am

tbear

Hiya mab....Meryl Streep is FaBuLoUs....so so moving that film...my Mum won't watch it...she's an ostrich!!

1:18 am

mab

So true -- not a lot of laughs. I picked it in part because I resemble meryl streep. What is your icon, tbear?

1:19 am

tbear

SwElling from Dallas...but my icon's the whole bunch...probably will change my mind by tomorrow...

1:22 am

tbear

and apart from enjoying a drink ot two,I don't resemble her at all....my ex-step father said i was like Bette Midler....now there's a thought.....

1:22 am

mab

I found a picture from Out of Africa, the part when Robert Redford washes Meryl's hair. Very....

1:24 am

tbear

That was another good film of hers...and his!! I really enjoyed Bridges of Madison County,the book first then the film did the book justice....

1:24 am

mab

I somehow missed the whole Dallas saga. Have no idea where I was.

I even have an odd nose, as Meryl does; she's actually not that pretty. rather plain.

1:25 am

cybernan

What's wrong with yoyo?

1:26 am

cybernan

pics of ourselves was yesterday, Debs

1:26 am

tbear

I' m looking forward to seeing what they do with brokeback mountain of Annie Proulx,I read it some time ago and found it quite intriging...she's so clever.

1:26 am

brandyjack

Trademarked noun.

1:27 am

Debs40ish

Hiya Nan... I always seem to get it wrong.. story of my life!

1:27 am

tbear

No mab.....she's got a beautiful face,character and very evokotive (that spelling looks dodgy)

1:27 am

mab

I didn't realize Proulx wrote brokeback. I looking forward to the film.

1:29 am

tbear

Trademarked noun??

1:30 am

mab

Like me, her features are not out outstanding in any particular way, although she has great bones. It is easy to make up a face like that. I'm very fair and a bit bland. too bad I can't act.

1:31 am

mab

I thought we didnt use yo-yo because it is hyphenated.

1:37 am

tbear

Refresh and check out my icon mab....Bette looking stunning

1:40 am

mab

Bette Midler? She does look stunning.

1:41 am

tbear

Right I'm off to shout for 10 mins to get my girls out of the door in time for school. All the clocks in the house are set 5 minutes fast and they still periodically missed the school bus........here goes...block your ears everyone.....see you later.

1:42 am

tbear

GIRLS>>>>COME ON NOW>>>>>NOW>>>>>RIGHT NOW>>>>>AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGRRRRR RRRRR

1:45 am

tbear

Love you Mum..........S L A M........

1:46 am

Debs40ish

1:46 am

mab

I've got to go too; need sleep.

1:47 am

tbear

Thx Debs....hope yr girls ok....

1:49 am

mab

I think I'm the only childless woman (of a certain age) in babbleonia. I think one doesn't completely grow up if one doesn't have children.

1:49 am

Atalante

Me too, mab :) Hi all!

1:51 am

spatialbean

I don't have kids Mab.

Just a bad cat.

1:53 am

mab

Well that makes me less lonely. Most people have children. I'm sometimes surprised it's so popular.

1:54 am

Atalante

cats and dogs are better, any day! (according to me at least :)

1:56 am

mab

I do love the animals. I like children immensely, usually, on an individual basis, but as a crowd, or when being made to wait for mum to finish shopping, they are less than enchanting.

1:57 am

mab

Having said that, I must add that I love my friends' children completely.

2:06 am

pinecone05

I don't have kids either Mab

2:06 am

speedfreak sam

9:00 am

72 Temple Owl

Afternoon campers!!!

9:00 am

Ouwachita

hi temple

9:01 am

Bobsta

hi bubby x

9:01 am

Babs1

just those two temple...*shyly peeking out from behind the babblers' curtain of shame* beginning is something you climb without one of the vowels followed by a vowel and the fish eggs minus the vowel you just used...

ohmygo**! what a convuluted clue!

9:02 am

72 Temple Owl

hi bubs! hi babs! - thanks for the clue - got it!

9:02 am

hydra

It's a really hard word to think of a clue for. You did very well, Babs1.

9:03 am

Bubbles

hi temple, hi babe

9:04 am

Babs1

hi bubbles, like your dog...he friendly?

9:06 am

hurshy

i'm a little lost trying to follow the posts - was that convoluted clue for pr6?

9:08 am

hydra

No, Hurshy, it was for the mo7/32 and 8/45. Anyone got that second pr6/21?

9:08 am

Babs1

someone else break the news to hurshy about my transgression..

9:08 am

hurshy

oh, i see it babs :)

9:09 am

Bubbles

Yeah, stroke him

9:10 am

hurshy

so, hydra, you're missing not electron but....

9:10 am

miametro

i'm a bit caught on the fish eggs bit?

9:10 am

Babs1

bubbles..OK, if you say so...looks like he's poised to take my hand off for giving away words, though! Is he your dog for real?

9:10 am

Bubbles

can everyone tell bob off for accusing me of nicking his words

9:10 am

hurshy

miametro, fish eggs are roe

9:11 am

miametro

ah, of course. i've got a cold, i blame that for my slowness, ha.

9:11 am

Bubbles

no babs his not, i'd love to have one though, my real dog is quite a bit smaller than that one

9:11 am

hydra

Love you forever, hurshy, that was my last word. Fireworks, please! Anyone need any clues? I started this grid at ten this morning and, with a couple of breaks, I've only just finished. And my New Year resolution was to put work before Babble!

9:12 am

hurshy

glad to help, hydra. :)

9:12 am

Babs1

So, hydra...we CAN cheer and then we'll be enabling your continued habit, I suppose...lol ;)

9:13 am

hurshy

maybe instead of congrats we should say, tsk tsk, you naughty hydra, so that we would help in the keeping of the resolution

9:14 am

hydra

It's the curse of working from home. You think you can make up time later in the day, but you never do. And talking of time, it's about time I joined properly and got an icon...

9:15 am

miametro

so what do you do hydra?

9:16 am

hydra

Work for literary consultancies writing appraisals of people's books. I also write myself, including a horoscope column. Used to be a pop music journo and edit a romantic fiction mag. Then got made redundant, boo-hoo.

9:17 am

hydra

How about you, miametro?

9:18 am

miametro

crikey, writing :) how exciting. i work in a hospital 9-5 (on holiday this week tho) and knit in my spare time. www.wearescarves.co.uk

9:20 am

Babs1

interesting hydra...how did you get into that line of work...sounds like fun!

9:20 am

hydra

Writing doesn't make me any better at Babble. I must take a look at your website. My mum was a great knitter. She died in 96 at the age of 87 and I still wear a sweater and scarf set she made.

9:21 am

miametro

knitting is a really relaxing pasttime. you should take it up :)

9:21 am

Uneaixoise

love your cherry twist, miametro!

9:21 am

hydra

Babs1, degree in English, job in advertising (after some awful jobs in stores etc and being a hippy and playing guitar in clubs). Then lied my way onto a local paper and then pop music mags. I was very lucky.

9:22 am

hydra

Wouldn't have the patience, miametro! I admire you.

9:24 am

Babs1

cool stuff miametro...I go through waves of making scarves...haven't taken it up this year...perhaps because weather has been so warm...we had about a week of winter so far...been in the 80's here lately...(farenheit that is)

9:25 am

Babs1

cool, hydra..kudos for your courage! So interesting to see the kind of paths that lead to interesting places!

9:25 am

miametro

thanks very much Uneaixoise :) it's remarkably simple to make actually, but looks complicated hehe. speaking of which, this grid is totally beating me today!

9:26 am

Bobsta

anyone have a clue for the pr6/21 that comes straight after the pr7/32 please?

9:26 am

hydra

Bobsta, see clue posted at 9.10am

9:27 am

Bubbles

err no!!! x

9:27 am

miametro

any clues for the pr 7/32 or the pr 8?

9:27 am

Uneaixoise

the most complicated things i ever knit were doll baby blankets when i was little (my grandmother showed me how) and one scarf when i was in Switzerland one summer! rectangles aren't too hard--hah! :-)

9:28 am

lola100

Hi guys! : )

Bobsta, same first four letters as the 7 and opp of off : )

9:29 am

Babs1

I agree about this grid mia...can't even get the silly re 4/6!

since I gave away the store on the pr word before, I will leave it to someone else to provide "a clue"!

9:29 am

harpjane

Hello!

9:30 am

Bobsta

9:30 am

miametro

shortened form of regular babs.

9:30 am

Babs1

*fish slapping here* was looking for a 4/4 instead of a 4/6...duh!

9:33 am

miametro

oops, looking for the pr 7/36 not 32.

9:35 am

lola100

mia, think getting a better position at work, possibly with a pay increase : )

9:35 am

Babs1

how about the pr 5/16?

9:36 am

miametro

cheers lola :) was driving me nuts!

9:36 am

lola100

babs, sounds like a word for 'before'. Or a nosey person : )

9:37 am

Babs1

thanks, lola...amazing how you look and look and miss what's glaring at you!

9:40 am

EasternBlue

LOL! Hi EB! ((x)) : )

9:41 am

EasternBlue

9:42 am

lola100

It has, hasn't it?! I'm great thanks, and you?

9:43 am

EasternBlue

good thanks...trying to avoid work by Babbling...but I must hunker down & actually do work!!

9:43 am

harpjane

Has Myavi fan been chatting lately? Haven't seen her.

9:44 am

lola100

EB, I'm babbling guilt free this afternoon..... I took the tree and decs down first! : D

9:44 am

EasternBlue

harp - I haven't seen Miya for weeks...I was on vacation w/o a computer & I've only been back on Babble since Tues...

9:44 am

lola100

harp, I haven't seen her but I think her friend gem said she was away.

9:45 am

EasternBlue

lola - lucky girl! we didn't do much for decorations since we were travelling - so very little to take down at home!

9:47 am

lola100

Where did you go EB?

9:48 am

EasternBlue

visiting with family in Minnesota...we were hoping for lots of snow for skiing...there was a little so we improvised with lots of sledding, ice hockey & walks in the woods!

9:50 am

lola100

Sounds great EB! I recently went ice-skating for the first time and loved it. I've always wanted to try skiing and sledding : )

9:52 am

EasternBlue

I've been ice skating for years...it was a little harder on the 'pond' since the surface wasn't as smooth as a rink...we resorted to boots after awhile because there were big rough patches where we all kept falling!

9:55 am

lola100

LOL! I had a hard enough time on a nice, smooth indoor rink! Still, I didn't fall over *beams with child-like pride* : )

9:56 am

EasternBlue

lola - you should be proud...it's never easy your first time out...I only fell once - that was enough for me...I have pins in my hips from surgery a long time ago & I was sore after that!! : )

9:58 am

lola100

Ow! I think it was the sheer thought of how hard the ice was that kept me up-right, lol! : D

10:00 am

EasternBlue

my bro-in-law is 6' 4" and stated - "the little kids are fine falling - they don't have that far to go, but someone my size - it's like falling off a mountain onto concrete...it's just not natural!"...we were cracking up!

10:02 am

lola100

LOL! He does have a point! : D

Right *clears throat in business-like fashion* EB, you should be working (!) ; ) and I need clues for the re7 and the st6/39..... somebody, please??

10:12 am

The Babble wizard behind the curtain needs a quick tune-up. While it's being fixed, you probably won't be able to add any words. It shouldn't take more than a few minutes, however. So hang tight, folks...

1:39 pm

Judi

Hi all. I scrolled and scrolled and scrolled but couldn't find a clue for the Mo-7 or the Mo-8. Any help? ** fetchingly batting eyelashes **

1:40 pm

gwenski

M7: A hunter's cap with side flaps

1:44 pm

Judi

Thanks, but the hunter's flap cap clue gets me no where. Clues for Dummies version of clue is in order here.

1:45 pm

Yvo

look in dictonary under caps thats were i found it

1:46 pm

gwenski

mo5 + word for fish eggs minus the final vowel

1:46 pm

Bugzy

Judi - the mo7 is also a Mitsubishi SUV model, if that helps...

1:48 pm

efor1124

thanks evanout! i LOVE get fuzzy! :)

1:48 pm

Judi

Yes! The Mitsubishi clue worked. And I don't even speak Japanese!

1:51 pm

Bugzy

That's the only way I ever heard of that word, too Judi. We always called those hats with the flaps "Elmer Fudd hats" LOL

1:53 pm

Judi

That word is entirely too fashionable to be applied to that dorky hat. I think Ralphie wore won in "A Christmas Story".

1:55 pm

Judi

Now I'm missing the 3rd Mo-5/16. I have the one that means "to change (like a caterpillar), and the one that means "may; might". Clue for the 3rd?

1:57 pm

Bugzy

I agree... it sounds like a Mexican shawl or something.... and yeah, it was either Ralphie or Randy or that kid who gets his tongue stuck to the flagpole. Love that movie :)

1:59 pm

Bugzy

The 3rd mo5/16 is the mo4 before it plus the sometimes vowel on the end.

2:01 pm

evanonut

got the scratch a day calendar sitting righ in front of me efor

2:05 pm

Judi

Oops. I just realized through more scrolling that today's icon theme was 80's stars.

2:06 pm

efor1124

i had to give up the calendar... i own all the strips in the books. i saw a hardbound edition of "groovitude" i'd love to have.
right now, i'm really into my "bad cat" calendar... it's like 365 different bucky katts! :)

2:12 pm

Bugzy

OK, only 2 more to go and monkeytyping is failing me...
hy5 and hy4, anyone??

2:13 pm

efor1124

that's ok judi, i didn't even realize there was a theme! :)

2:14 pm

Cinderella

efor1124 Where did you get the Bad Cat calendar? Please : )

2:14 pm

gwenski

h4: A traditional round dance of Romania and Israel. Sounds kinda like a measurement of time.

2:16 pm

Bugzy

There's a theme today? Missed that one :)

2:16 pm

gwenski

Oops. That was ho4. Hy4 sounds like not width but height.

2:17 pm

Bugzy

Thanks gwenski! Coulda sworn I tried that!!
That's me done... clues anyone?

2:18 pm

efor1124

i picked mine up in august or september @ borders or barnes & noble... not sure what their calendar selection is like now, but there is a book, too. soooo cute! i'm thinking of entering my cat for the next one. :) you can go to www.mycathatesyou.com & see some of the pics.

2:32 pm

Cinderella

efor1124 Thanks! I'll try to get one for my daughter. My grand kitty is Carmine. He rules the house. I know you find that hard to believe!!!!!!!!

2:35 pm

efor1124

np! i really like some of their hobbies. one of the hobbies a kitten has in the book is "prison tattooing" lol

2:37 pm

Judi

Down to the last word. Need a clue for the St6-39. ??

2:38 pm

efor1124

st6 - where a pig lives + dinosaur T-***, but change the vowel (part of a clue from earlier)

2:44 pm

Bugzy

efor - That site is hilarious (and I'm not even a cat person)!!
I bought my sister the 'Bad Dog' book for Xmas- I was laughing so hard in the bookstore, people were giving me weird stares LOL

2:50 pm

evanonut

sorry for the disappear efor, i had to pull wire. i tried to start the year off without scratch a day, but couldn't do it. groovitude, the title says it all.

2:50 pm

efor1124

i love the bad dog book, too. i got it for my friend for her birthday, but she got it for christmas, so i'm just going to keep it for myself! :)

3:11 pm

3:54 pm

CATHB

thanks eb.i am still having probs with the mo7/32..the Mitsubishi clue means nothing to me

3:56 pm

CATHB

just solved them...

3:56 pm

realityfan09

Are there any words that start with X? I can't find any...(I'm not a Babble Pro person, so I don't have all of the info)

3:57 pm

EasternBlue

Cath - here's a convoluted one from earlier, but that's how I got it...
MO 7 -
take the first part of "Go Tell It on the Mo-----"
drop the 2nd vowel in that part
then...
add thE most commonly usEd vowEl
then...
add "fish eggs" (minus the vowel you added in the middle)
For the 8 - make it plural!

3:57 pm

EasternBlue

realityfan -
nope! no words start w/ x...

3:58 pm

realityfan09

Any words have X in them? I already have st6/39 and th6/36 I'm so confused in that corner!

3:58 pm

CATHB

no realityfan...if you go to babblers anonymous (under friends of babble) under general you will find a letter posting and the total number of words

3:59 pm

CATHB

thanks eb..got it just as you posted it

3:59 pm

harpjane

realityfan, there is an x in mo4/10 also.

3:59 pm

EasternBlue

realityfan - you can also go to the Babbler's Anonymous site (look on the right under "Friends of Babble")...click on Babbler's Anon. --> General --> Stats
that will give you the 2nd letter list (and other info that'll help)

4:00 pm

EasternBlue

Cath - your fingers were faster than mine typing!! : )

4:00 pm

snowyowl

Hi All - hope all is well with you - late start - husband asked me to type & print the church reading list, seems simple but he has weird and wonderful ways of making it up & it always takes an age to interpret!

4:01 pm

EasternBlue

hi snowy - there are a few doozies in here!

4:02 pm

snowyowl

Hi EB - looks that way to me too! could be a long night!

4:02 pm

CATHB

hi snowy..sounds a bit like john and his entries in the telephone book (Like Mick - under F for fishing )

4:04 pm

snowyowl

You got it Cath! LOL
Suprising how complicated his train of thought gets when he has a pen in his hand!

4:05 pm

CATHB

snowy -a bit like his crossword answers

4:06 pm

EasternBlue

*sheepishly looks up*
I think that sounds logical - you should see my filing system for some things...

4:06 pm

CATHB

mastered the m's at last..time for a cup of tea i think

4:07 pm

snowyowl

Sort of Cath - but he makes those answers up to fit the gaps as you know!

4:18 pm

EasternBlue

Woo Hoo! Finished!

4:31 pm

sandr

4:33 pm

runningforhome

the ph/6/30 is very like the ph/6/24, but with one vowel replaced.

4:34 pm

EasternBlue

ph 6/30
The smallest unit of plant structure.
(close to your ph 6/24 - change the 3rd letter)

4:34 pm

EasternBlue

running - sorry I missed your req. I'm trying to finish up some work stuff before hubby comes to get me!

4:35 pm

runningforhome

No worries, EB. It figures I'd noodle it as soon as I posted asking for a clue... that always happens! :p

5:27 pm

Nonny

5:29 pm

snowyowl

hi nonny same as 6 above it except 1st vowel - change it for a consonant

5:30 pm

Nonny

Thanx SnowyOwl. I'm done and out of here unless anyone needs a clue/hint with one or two or.....

5:32 pm

snowyowl

Congrats Nonny!!!!!!!!!!!!

5:33 pm

tbear

Snowy...what's the value of the ph above the one asked for by Nonny,which I haven't got either?

5:35 pm

Jacula

Cath - For the mo7 & 8's, think of of an Austin car or the old reggae hit 'Mo***** Bay (ends in a round vowel)'. For the grid words, change the last consonant.

5:35 pm

tbear

Sorry Snowy...I'm so tired i forgot to say please.....please

5:35 pm

snowyowl

tbear its a 6/24 - just add a consonant to the 5

5:36 pm

snowyowl

Hi jacula - tricky one today!

5:38 pm

tbear

Thx Snowy I'm working on them

5:39 pm

Jacula

Hi everyone. I've just come in to do my last 5 words. Got 2 of 'em already. You're right, Snowy, it is a tricky grid. Some of the words (with the exception of the obvious one across the top line) are well wound in!

5:46 pm

granadan

wheres doxy gone - i keep missing her!

5:47 pm

snowyowl

5:48 pm

granadan

maybe that grandbaby made an appearance....

5:50 pm

granadan

My farting lap warmer has gone down with back trouble. Shes now paralysed and on crate rest. Babble just isnt the same without her farting and snoring.
Cross fingers for her.
*crosses fingers, toes and legs*

5:52 pm

snowyowl

oh Granadan - that is so sad!

5:53 pm

Angelsong

hi again eveyone off work and ready to Babble...

5:53 pm

granadan

She is only 10. such a character. no bowel or bladder control, but still howling if I touch the fridge door - she is obsessed with tomatoes. Pain meds are working, so as long as she is happy.....

5:53 pm

snowyowl

Hi Angelsong this is a tricky grid!

5:55 pm

Angelsong

yes, snowy, it is tricky indeed

5:55 pm

tbear

Awww Granadan...that's very sad. Poor mite

5:59 pm

snowyowl

It's awful when pets are sick isn't it? We lost 4 much loved cats in 10 months a few years ago - haven't been able to face having another yet but I am missing a cat now and may have another if can persuade my husband.
We have had 5 grandchildren since 2000 so we have been rather busy, but while I was ironing a few weeks ago I felt my oldest cat against my legs and actually opened the door to let her out! Bit creepy for a while!

6:02 pm

mrpresident

I lost my puss in november to a "vet accident"...
never getting over it! She was my most precious pet in my whole life, and the kids miss her so

6:02 pm

speedfreak

granadan: RIght before Xmas had to put down my beautiful doberman for bone cancer...very tough...hubby came home from work with a 12 week old shepherd the other day so back to puppy land. My Rottie can't figure it out!!

6:05 pm

granadan

Aw... Ive got a real soft spot for dobes.... In talks with a hungarian breeder about importing one for working trials. Sorry about the dobe and the cats. Horrid - they dont live long enough.
I keep cheerful by saying only the good die young - and while I worship this dog, she is an utter swine....

6:05 pm

tbear

Snowy Ive also experience similar feelings after losing beloved cats....I found it quite reassuring....get yourself another,I can recommend it,Ollie is his own cat and altho he will never replace,Arlene,Garfield or Mono...he is completely adored...

6:59 pm

MissyMe

Hi all looks like my ISP is stable for a while so I can chat a bit. Been a real pain for the last week or so, cutting me off every few minutes. It made completing the puzzle a pain in the wazoo

Plus my husband is building that window seat/storage area. Whenever he works on ANYTHING, he starts yelling and swearing at ME so I need a break from his abuse! :(

6:59 pm

Anj

Ren, that's done it... I'm now thinking of an '80s detective series where the 'hero' drove some way out red sports car protoype... Can't think of the name for the life of me : /

7:00 pm

Anj

Come to Babble and feel the L.O.V.E. MissyMe : )

7:01 pm

MissyMe

Thanx Anj...its times like these I keep wondering why I don't divorce him...he can be so damned abusive! I'm really upset at him

7:01 pm

snowyowl

know the feeling - was just down to 7 words and the last 2 I've found are such obvious easy little words I'm amazed I missed them!They were well hidden in the mire of twisty ones! The fish of obviousness if swimming here freely tonight!

7:02 pm

mrpresident

7:02 pm

MissyMe

This puzzle was surely a bit of a challenge because of all the strange ways of spelling common words

7:03 pm

Anj

Missy, sounds like you need to withhold his hot apple pie rights pending a review lol ; )

7:03 pm

renfield

missy!!!! is that max singing barry white!!!

7:03 pm

MissyMe

7:06 pm

kristin

sorry for the delayed thanks on the go5/6 word - had a customer - the nerve in the middle of my babble game!

7:06 pm

snowyowl

Missyme does the guilt trip work? Smile sadly & mist up a bit! Other than that a good scream works as well!
My husband is doped up to the eyeballs because of high bl;ood pressure - he was already the most laid back person in UK! It's infuriating - he now has the reaction time of a snail!

7:06 pm

mrpresident

you should be able to buy a symbol _ $2.50 a piece... that would make babble alot of money!!

7:06 pm

MissyMe

mo6 the "er" suffix has been our friend in this puzzle

7:07 pm

Anj

...careful Snowy. Snails can be deadly if you get between them and a bit of lettuce : /

7:07 pm

mrpresident

OK OK OK, you are all talking a little too fondly of this puzzle now.

I may just have to start it....

7:08 pm

harpjane

Could I have a clue for the so 5/10 and the 4/4 before it?

7:08 pm

snowyowl

I asked our chemist if she could give him something to speed him up a bit - or something to slow me down!

7:08 pm

MissyMe

snowy :) Whats that medication called. My husband could use a truckload of that stuff. The guilt trip and tears don't work. I used to just take it but he knows I'll start chewing him out now if he goes to far. It's just best to walk away and let him make of a mess of whatever he's building. Weekend warriors----GAUD!

7:09 pm

Uneaixoise

so5/10 refers to that big yellow thing in the sky . . .

7:09 pm

Anj

Snowy: I prescribe in-line skates : )

Harp - it's the sun. Then take the R off the end for the 4/4

7:10 pm

harpjane

Well, THOSE clues oughta help! Finally, a simple word and I don't see it! Thanks.

7:10 pm

kristin

first st6 is another word for cigar

7:45 pm

*pours hot toddy for Mama*

11:28 am

mamabear

Hi EB!!!!! *hugs back* - Happy New Year to you too! Is today movies of the 80's day? I put up MY dirty dancing icon a couple days ago not realizing it was too early.... that's why my icon is now eating the "icon-of-confusion codfish"

11:29 am

EasternBlue

Mama - it is today...you can switch later if you want (I can change into something else!)

11:29 am

GreyWoulf

LOL EB! That's ok - nice to be so warmly welcomed! The tackle bruises will heal!!! LOL

11:30 am

Since there's only a half hour to go. I think I'll save my energy for the new grid. And don't change on my account, EB - my icon wasn't the same. I'll go get it. brb
