My dadabear isn't still officially here, Mama. But I didn't judge him too wrong, cos he still visits often and looks after his cubs.

Liked finding the pe5/12 word, but did then look for 'very sorry' word beginning with pe....:-(

12:26 am

sprite

Jac, better to find the Pe5 and NOT be sorry ;)

12:26 am

Jacula

Oh, Sprite, How right you are!

12:27 am

harpjane

Are you ladies talking about the pe5 that half of the human beings in the world have? lol

12:28 am

Jacula

Yes, Harp, I guess we are, and, without it, and ourselves, the humand race would not exist.

12:29 am

harpjane

Well then, let's not be sorry, I guess!

12:29 am

sprite

Yup, the part that does most of their thinking for them ;)
Got to leave you guys for a bit, got some kids here that want a piece of their mom and my washing machine crashed again (3rth time in one month), so I have to prepare the bathroom for the repairman.

12:29 am

1:02 am

Jacula

Just checked ( since blissing out here on Python Lee Jacksons's 'In A Broken Dream') - 100 words found here...

1:03 am

cybernan

keep thinking I see assinine every time I look for that a 8!

1:08 am

cybernan

Stalled at 142 -- think I've gone as far as I can without Brandyjack's list.

1:09 am

sprite

And why is someone who does that particular dance no T7?

1:11 am

caelle

cybernan, is that a kelowna sailboat by chance?

1:13 am

cybernan

It is a Dow Reid sculpture called 'Spirit of the Sails' that stands at the foot of our main street downtown. It has come to be a symbol of Kelowna.

1:13 am

Griffums

ay chihuahua! this looks like a good grid.

1:14 am

caelle

i thought it looked familiar...

1:16 am

cybernan

Where are you located Caelle?

1:17 am

caelle

I'm in kelowna, for just over a year now, not too familiar with the downtown area

1:17 am

sprite

Griffs! Great to see you, was a bit worried about you. How are you recovering from the accident? And how is the dog?

1:18 am

cybernan

Hope you are enjoying it here.

1:19 am

caelle

i love it, I don't plan on going anywhere

1:20 am

Griffums

Doggie's okay. I'm still in a fair amount of pain, just takes time I guess. Hard to sit for long so I am not babbling much - by the time I've sat at work all day (and tonight for a two hour meeting) my back is killing me. We're in to the court phase now - the other gal has decided this really was all my fault so is seeking to have her traffic citation overturned and we are off to court over it. Just more hassle. How are you?

1:20 am

Jacula

104 words here and bruised my nose on a big wall now, S'late, not slept yet.

1:21 am

sprite

I am doing well enough. Take care of that back, Griffs, you have only one and you will be needing it for a fair mount of years-to-come ;)
Sorry to hear about the court thing. Stupid lady, that... hope she will be very sorry that she took it this far.

1:22 am

sprite

*amount

1:22 am

cybernan

Just found your dancer, Sprite -- good question, esecially in consideration of all the other crazy "words" we get.

1:23 am

Griffums

I doubt she will. Her story all along has been yes she ran the stop sign but I should not have hit her. And she thinks that is true logic. My only concern is that these are minor matters and a cop is not going to show up in court for it. which means her ticket will likely be flipped. If that happens then I may be in a position to share liability. I'm already out about ten grand over this so am not looking for any portion of blame when none of it was my fault.

1:25 am

cybernan

Griff -- some advice from experience -- don't be in too big a rush to settle the insurance claim -- keep a diary recording how you are feeling each day and what limitations you have as a result of the injury -- see a doctor immediately and get a written report -- if physio is recommended make sure you get the therapist to write a summary of you condition and prognosis as well. Good luck and I hope you are soon on the mend.

1:25 am

Griffums

Anyway, having oversung my song of woe, my back is in spasms and I can't see any words either so am going to go lie down. We're dogsitting golden girl Emma this week and she is a cuddledog (Hunter is not) so it's pleasant to have her company as my back pillow! 'Night.

1:25 am

Jacula

I think me and Alice Cooper might sign out for the moment.

1:25 am

sprite

That's what I thought, nan... guess we are much more logical than enable will ever be.
Griffs, I am so sorry to hear that. It is SO unfair. I will order a miracle for you ;)

1:25 am

Griffums

Yep, nan, that's all being done.

1:26 am

Jacula

He's singing Lost In America right now. LOL.

1:26 am

cybernan

Thats good!, but sorry to hear you had an accident in the first place.

1:28 am

cybernan

Debs -- want to tell us the second letter for that a8?

1:30 am

nadav

working hard; so far, 162. don't seem to get those long words...

1:36 am

SweetTooth

Nan - it's Ag 8/50

1:39 am

cybernan

Thankyou sweettooth

1:40 am

sprite

Nite Griffs, hope you will be feeling better soon.

1:41 am

caelle

i got that one too, thanks sweettooth

i'm off now, bye all
have fun

1:41 am

SweetTooth

You're welcome!

1:42 am

cybernan

too bad there isn't another t in there -- wouldn't a 10 letter word be lovely?!

1:43 am

sprite

Washing machine man is in and has a worried look on his face. Hope this won't be too expensive... :(

1:43 am

cybernan

That brings me to 150 -- a nice round figure to stop at for the night -- see you tomorrow, everyone :)

1:44 am

SweetTooth

keeping my fingers crossed for you Sprite!

1:44 am

sprite

Nice work nan! I think A4-A5 should be a word for being against bad tempers.

1:44 am

sprite

Thanks SweetTooth! :)

1:45 am

SweetTooth

bye nan

1:47 am

nadav

making progress -up to 272 now...

1:48 am

cybernan

How about a4 - a3 for being against stupidity?

1:49 am

sprite

Sweet Tooth, I love you to bits! It helped... not a 200 euro electronical thing, but a leak in a hose... which will be about 35 or 40 euro. What a relief! :)

1:49 am

sprite

That too, nan!

1:50 am

SweetTooth

Sprite - Thanks goodness, I can finally uncross my fingers!

1:53 am

sprite

Types a lot easier, doesn't it, SweetTooth ;)

1:53 am

cybernan

Glad it wasn't anything too serious. We just had a $175.00 (110 euros) tab to replace an electronic something or other in our water distiller.

1:54 am

cybernan

Now I need to find one more word so that I can leave with a nice round number of 65 to go!

1:54 am

sprite

Yes, as soon as it becomes electronical, the costs go sky high. I was really holding my breath. Thank god for good and honest repairmen.

1:55 am

sprite

Nan, do you have the Indian butter G4?

1:57 am

cybernan

No, but found another one I was missing -- can't remember what that indian butter one was -- know we had it a couple of days ago.

tomorrow! -- good night all.

1:58 am

SweetTooth

Fingers feel fine....wish my head felt better. I watched my four year old nephew on Valentine's day and caught his cold. I knew it was inevitable, he was being very snuggly and coughing and sneezing all over me.

2:03 am

sprite

Sleep well!
Cleared butter, G4/7. You'll find it tomorrow ;)

2:08 am

sprite

Comes with the territory, indeed, SweetTooth... hope you will be feeling better soon!

2:10 am

SweetTooth

Thanks Sprite!

2:11 am

sprite

P7/32-8/45, not sure those were mentioned yet.

4:06 am

nadav

Well, it's climbed to 442
BTW, this is coming from Jerusalem...

4:07 am

tbear

you talking points nadav?

4:09 am

nadav

yes, tbear, points - not so good, right? but I just back and forth to the computer...

4:10 am

tbear

all points are good nadav.....how long have you been playing?

4:12 am

nadav

actually just began..

4:13 am

Atalante

hi tbear and nadav and sprite and anyone else who's around!

4:15 am

rosalind230

Morning everone big grid today
are you all well?

4:15 am

nadav

I seem to be at a distinct advantage: while you all are "working' in the wee hours, it's noon here in Jerusalem...
BTW, how do you get a picture attached to your name?

4:15 am

Haz1558

Good morning, all. It's my daughter's 22nd birthday today so my icon is in her honour.

4:17 am

rosalind230

you have to join

4:19 am

nadav

I HAVE joined.(Otherwise I wouldn't be here now). But how do I get the icon next to the name?

4:20 am

pinecone05

In your My Profile page you can upload a pic

4:21 am

pinecone05

upper right hand corner of the page

4:21 am

trishtrash

nadav, you can pay a small, one-off fee & get a profile, icon & a stats grid that tells you how many words / which letters they begin from.

4:22 am

rosalind230

Click on my profile at the top of the page and gofrom there.

4:31 am

nadav

I did sign up and pay. I see the Stats (don't understand all), but nothing about an icon.

4:32 am

pinecone05

did you go to the My Profile page? (upper right hand corner)

4:33 am

trishtrash

nadav, up in the top right hand corner of the screen, there's a link to 'my profile' ... click it, and you'll see an option to upload an icon. It it's not there, try refreshing, or logging out of the game and back in (if it's your first time on here).

4:45 am

nadav

going to have lunch now- will be back to try to get a pretty (?) icon. Does this include the flag?

4:46 am

trishtrash

If you put your nationality in the profile field, you should get a flag, yeah :) see you later, nadav

4:46 am

pinecone05

the flag comes from the blue box titled optional info in the my profile section

4:54 am

Boysaway

All done! That was a toughie. Anyone need clues before I go?

4:58 am

Boysaway

No? Okay, good luck everyone, see you tomorrow.

5:08 am

5:10 am

Haz1558

Well done and welcome!

5:12 am

mom23

Mornin' all. Not usually looking at this insanity so early, but evil cat decided to use me as his treadmill this a.m.!

5:14 am

Karys

Hello everyone.....Happy Birthday Haz's daughter (pretty girl !)..... welcome nadav.... just poppong in and out between boring houseworky things !!!

5:15 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Karys. I'm about to drag myself away to get on with some cooking and baking.

5:16 am

Karys

preparing some foodstuffs for entertaining tomorrow night (that bit I don't mind)....its the bedchanging and washing and things like that !!

5:16 am

pinecone05

Hi mom23...my cat does that too sometimes

5:18 am

Haz1558

I know, entertaining is fine, but why do I always feel that I have to clean the whole house? Just in case the guests feel the urge to check all the bedrooms...

5:18 am

Karys

LOL....this is true....aren't we silly !!

5:19 am

Karys

when was the last time you went around someones house looking in dark corners ?

5:19 am

Haz1558

It's probably the same principle as always wearing clean underwear in case you're run over by a bus...

5:20 am

Karys

oh absolutely....and nowadays it has to be matching too !

5:20 am

Haz1558

I no longer look around dark corners, but maybe it's because I remember, as a child, being curious and always looking in people's bathroom cabinets. I've grown out of it now but you can't be sure about other people.

5:21 am

Karys

when I was fostering you could bet that first thing the new child wanted to do was to look at the loo !!

5:22 am

Haz1558

There's probably some deep Freudian reason behind that one!

5:22 am

Karys

I think it is a known fact !

5:26 am

Jera

Morning, all... big day ahead so I am Babbling early!

5:27 am

Haz1558

Jera, good morning - anything interesting happening in your big day?

5:27 am

Karys

morning Jera....may we ask what ?

5:27 am

miametro

satan isn't a word?

5:27 am

Karys

think it depends what day it is mia !!

5:28 am

Jera

I'm going to a training workshop so I can be a Girl Scout day camp director this summer!!

5:29 am

Karys

well that sound like something you will enjoy Jera....Good Luck !

5:30 am

Haz1558

Hope it goes well for you. I would fail miserably!

5:30 am

Jera

IT's pretty far away & lasts 4 hours... the kids are commanded to behave & not get sick at school today or DADDY will have to come get them (& he won't be happy)!

5:32 am

Haz1558

Poor souls! I do hope they aren't really sick, sitting in the back row, trying not to make a fuss.

5:33 am

Karys

must do a bit more !!!....see you later :)

5:33 am

Haz1558

Bye Karis.

5:34 am

Jera

Oh not sick, just cold-level disagreements. If they run a fever, cough horribly or throw up, the school sends them home.

5:34 am

Jera

Bye, Happy Cat!

5:34 am

Haz1558

Well, let's hope that doesn't happen.

5:38 am

tbear

Haz.....a very happy Aquarian birthday to your daughter.... :)

5:39 am

Haz1558

Thank you - she's just been on the phone from college to say when she'll be home this afternoon. She sounds really excited!

5:41 am

Haz1558

And now, I must depart for a while. I'll be back later!

5:45 am

nadav

Nice to hear from you, ARB. Whar do you do on the West Coast?

5:58 am

Eva

good morning/boker tov everyone. They are predicting a very dramatic day here - dropping 40 degrees, high winds, power outages. Have to go and fill some containers with water in case we lose the pump. It was 50 yesterday and is supposed to be -10 by this evening. So I'd better do my babbling now. Does anyone have a clue for the ag8?

5:59 am

trishtrash

ag + na6/18
def: from a common source, or paternal side.

6:00 am

Chessy

morning Eva. If you have a na6/18, then just stick ag on the front ...

6:00 am

Eva

nadav-aside from getting your flag and gender (I assume you already have one?) you can get a nice icon, which you can change at will, going to your profile page, going to "edit icon", and uploading something from images on Google. Itis quite picky about what format it will accept, but all of that is spelled out on the profile page.

6:01 am

Eva

thanks chessy-I remember now that we had it before!

6:02 am

Chessy

wish I could remember words from one puzzle to the next sometimes :)

6:02 am

Eva

are there any words using the x?

6:02 am

Eva

wish I could remember why I went from one room to the next.

6:03 am

Chessy

LOL Eva - no, the x isn't used at all poor thing ...

6:04 am

Eva

poor x-what about someone who used to ride a Harley?

6:06 am

lshult

hi everone.
Is there any clue about for the ag8?
Found the pe8 quickly!!

6:06 am

Chessy

no exhogs in babbleland ...

6:06 am

Eva

ishult-there's a definition at 5:59.

6:08 am

Eva

I want cognate.

6:09 am

Karys

i want oasis !

6:09 am

gramma

I want assinine and onion

6:10 am

Eva

morning gramma! Ready for the arctic invasion?

6:10 am

gramma

Oops ;{
I really should have greeted every1 first....sorry.
Start over. Good morning!

6:11 am

Adsman

Hi Gramma

6:11 am

gramma

Eva, I'm actually a bit nervous about it. How about you?

6:11 am

Eva

wanting assinine and onion seems a verp appropriate greeting to me and, I would guess, most babblers.

6:12 am

Eva

still looking for some of those weird co words lurk around. Almost as bad as the dreaded re's.

6:13 am

gramma

Thanks Eva, you always cover my ***. We Vermonters have to stick together...if for nothing else, at least warmth 8)

6:14 am

Karys

looking for that middle 'i' !!

6:15 am

Eva

The dilemma for me is that we do have a generator, which we bought for emergencies, but have never used, and when the power is off for a long period we obsess about whether to haul it out and start it (something neither of us has any aptitude for at all) or wait it out and hope the power comes back on before everything in the fridge spoils. heat is not much of a problem, as we have 2 stoves. But we are at the end of the power grid and are usually the last to be reconnected.

6:19 am

gramma

Eva, if you bought a generator, you owe it to yourself to learn how to run it. You must have a good neighbor around that could help you. Or maybe the place you bought it?

6:20 am

spellit

Hi all. Struggling this morning!

6:21 am

gramma

spellit, are you talking about me?...'cuz yes I am! I'm still on the 4 letter a's :(

6:22 am

Eva

We have put it through some trial runs and yes, there are neighbors who can help. I was just thinking that since for once we have plenty of advance warning, we'll hook it up this morning while it is still warm and dry, and see if we can get it working or if we need help. It will keep the pump, furnace and fridge going. No lights or other appliancs, but who needs those?

6:22 am

Eva

cat feeding time...

6:24 am

gramma

Your kittys do look a little gaunt
8)

6:27 am

gramma

An6? Help please. What am I against today?

6:28 am

Jera

You are going hunting for small insects

6:28 am

spellit

No - I'm the one struggling - only just over halfway so far. Sorry to hear about all the terrible weather. We just have non-stop rain

6:30 am

Jera

That was for the an6 gramma...

6:32 am

spellit

Two sa5/10's together - I have the antelope but the other one is driving me nuts! Please put me out of my misery..

6:34 am

Adsman

a type of fabric spellit

6:34 am

gramma

Jera, TY. I wouldn't have found it w/out you. I hadn't discovered that delightful 3 letter ending yet.
^_^

6:34 am

Jera

It comes in quite handy today, gramma!

6:35 am

Jera

Well, I'm toddling off with 80 to go, hopefully will make it back this evening to finish!

6:35 am

spellit

Thanks Adsman but it's the sa5/10 before that one!

6:36 am

gramma

C ya later Jera. TA

6:36 am

Haz1558

Spellit - it drove me crazy too! It's like Spanish saint but with masculine ending

6:37 am

trishtrash

change the middle consonant of the fabric to the first letter, Spellit... hope that's the right one

6:38 am

Adsman

change the N to a S spellit

6:38 am

lshult

109 still to go, but I gotta take a break!!

FMitch

Gotta go in 5 mins, any clues before I depart anyone?

7:52 am

hurshy

can you tell me if i can get any words related to the medical specialty to do with old folks, and if so what is the ending like?

7:53 am

hurshy

and oops, forgot to update - refresh!

7:55 am

hurshy

oh, fmitch's post was more than 5 mins old...

7:59 am

amandacath

Well, 106 words all by my li'l ol' self - did I even hit the halfway mark?

7:59 am

musicmom

hi Hurshy. I just got here - haven't started this one yet

8:01 am

EvaNadine

amandacath -- 218 total today

8:02 am

amandacath

D*** - just three short of halfway. Time to scroll thru the log for all of your wonderful clues!

8:16 am

hurshy

i have found 130 all by myself so far! i'm so proud.

8:18 am

hurshy

135 now, and 7 of them are 7's!

8:21 am

EvaNadine

100 words even, and 5 of them are 7s.
:D

8:23 am

musicmom

the kids don't have school today - it's slowing me down

8:26 am

EvaNadine

of course, my little knowledge of french is longering, and i keep seeing the word "connais"

8:42 am

musicmom

Have to get Hannah's breakfast and my coffee. Be back soon.,

8:46 am

amandacath

127 and frustrated - can anyone tell me how many 7's and 8's?

8:50 am

musicmom

1 -8 and 17 - 7s

8:52 am

spellit

All done but I'll stick around for a bit for clues

8:52 am

amandacath

Um... I've got 2 8's?

8:53 am

musicmom

Sorry amanda - you are right. I misread the stats.

8:53 am

musicmom

There are only two

8:53 am

musicmom

Congrats Spellit!

8:53 am

ch1212

and 38 (yes, 38!) 6 letter words today too, amandacath.

8:55 am

spellit

Cheers musicmom :-)

8:55 am

amandacath

Ok, relieved of all 8's, 7 7's to go. I know I'm missing 1 s7 - I've got a bee and a way of scoring tests...

8:56 am

Jera

Hey all I'm back!

8:57 am

ch1212

hi jera :) I'm outahere to get ready for work. Back later. Good luck all!

8:57 am

musicmom

Hi Jera. I think I have caught a touch of what you have had. Achy and congested today.

8:58 am

smithchick

Hey, everybody! How are all of you?

8:59 am

Jera

Sorry, musicmom... I didn't know I was cyber-contagious!

8:59 am

musicmom

Hi Smithchick. hanging in there. I'll probably be sporadic at best today. Kids are home from school.

8:59 am

Jera

Bye, ch1212!

9:00 am

Jera

Well, my plans for the day seem to be shot, so I figured I'd come back to Babbling...

9:00 am

Jera

Why are your kids home, musicmom? Holiday or sick??

9:00 am

musicmom

I'm glad you are here. but are you missing something fun?

9:01 am

smithchick

Yeah, I'll be sporadic too. In fact, I've even used a2z today which I haven't used in months because I've got a billion things to do. Pay bills, clean house (hubby comes home tomorrow- weather permitting), help my mom some more, Dr. appt. for daughter's broken foot. Sheew!

9:01 am

musicmom

it's a conference day. They also have Monday off for the holiday. Fortunately they aren't ill.

9:01 am

Jera

I was supposed to be going to a Girl Scout Day Camp Director training workshop today... but I'm having trouble getting oil delivered & it's gonna get COLD tonight!!

9:02 am

Jera

You are a busy beaver, smithchick!!

9:02 am

musicmom

BUMMER! Yep it is getting cold here too. We were at 70 yesterday - high of only 35 today. Day camp Director - you're brave!

9:02 am

smithchick

Brrr!!! Definitely get your oil. I'm kind of looking forward to getting socked in if hubby makes it in.

9:02 am

musicmom

Goodness Smithchick - all that and babble too. Impressive!

9:03 am

smithchick

Not normally, Jera. Mom is having her house appraised and she has been doing renovations so it is a mess so I've been helping her all week. Consequently, my house has suffered. REALLY SUFFERED!!!

9:04 am

smithchick

My time management skills are sorely lacking. That's really not much for an organized person but since I"ve let my house get horrible, it will take several hours.Dread.

9:05 am

musicmom

I find it is really hard to keep house if I'm busy out doing other things. Strange - you would think if noone were here it would stay cleaned up better.

9:05 am

Jera

I'm a better manager than a basic Leader, I think... less physical activity, more brain work... I LOVE planning stuff! I guess I just need more green minions to do my bidding... last night's meeting was excellent... we earned Cookie Connection in under 2 hours!

9:06 am

Jera

My house stays cleaner when we are all busy... assuming, of course, I clean it before I go, LOL! That's the trick...

9:06 am

musicmom

That's great Jera! I don't like dealing with all the leaders and parents when I plan things. I plan lots of SU events. I love working with the girls - it's the adults I have trouble with:-) I'm going to be a patrol leader at our Day Camp this year. Probably with Jr. scouts.

9:07 am

smithchick

If I could just get my kids their own house (and hubby) mine would be much cleaner. I'm not a basically messy person but the four other people I live with are. Jera, it's too bad we don't live close. I'm an excellent minion! I don't like to plan, I like to be a worker bee!

9:08 am

musicmom

i agree with that Smith. When the kids spend a week at Grandma's I have a terrific looking house.

9:09 am

Jera

I used to be like that, smithchick... I think a combination of experience, pride & physical difficulties makes the trenches less appealing...

9:10 am

Jera

My house was fabulous last Summer when my daughter was away at camp!! She is slowly becoming more help with the mess than maker of messes. That's nice!

9:11 am

smithchick

I lack imagination and confidence when it comes to stuff. Plus, I don't want to have the ultimate responsibility. I'd rather someone else officially be in charge, and if I have a fabulous idea, then have it used. Usually I don't care who gets the credit because my fabulous ideas are few and far between.

9:12 am

Jera

I'm FULL of fabulous ideas!! Crazy has also been used, LOL...

Right now, I'm working on a Retro Scouts daycamp where the Girls earn discontinued Badges from the olden days... I love History!

9:13 am

musicmom

I'm definitely an idea, imagination person. I don't mind if I get credit or someone else does, but I like figuring out fun, different ways to approach things.

9:13 am

Jera

smithchick... I just now realized what your icon is... I thought it was Yoda until I took a good look... it's sad to be going blind... how will I Babble??

9:13 am

smithchick

That is so cool, jera!! Sometime I might have to pick your brains for our girls youth group at church.

9:14 am

Jera

The only way I'd get mad is if someone specifically said, This is my idea, when it was mine. If nothing is said, i don't care, as long as the Girls have fun & possibly even learn something!

9:15 am

musicmom

Jera - that is cool!
The girls in the SU call me the Crazy S***ing lady. It's funny because all over town girls will be speaking to me. Greg is always amazed.

9:15 am

smithchick

I'm blind today, too. I can't tell what anyone's icons are. Yours looks like a cowboy, jera. Is it?

9:15 am

Jera

Sure thing, smithchick, my e-mail address is in my profile... feel free to drop me a line!

9:15 am

musicmom

My icon is Fountain Square in Cincinnati - that's where I grew up.

9:16 am

Jera

Mine is the Colossus of Rhodes!

9:16 am

smithchick

I was just about to ask, musicmom. I was busy squinting away at it to see if I could tell. Well, I'm envious of your imaginations and creativity. My creative moments are few and far between. I have them, but rarely.

9:17 am

Jera

*refreshes quickly as musicmom's icon is still Futurama for me*

9:18 am

Jera

My latest crazy idea... a Girl Scout Birthday party at the local Library to recruit & celebrate 94 years of Girl Scouting in the USA!! We even got permission to light candles, usually not allowed...

9:19 am

Jen

Morning all!

9:19 am

Jera

Morning, Jen, how are you today, hon?

9:19 am

doxy1lover

good morning all.

9:19 am

musicmom

Very cool. Not my idea - but I'm working on a Harry Potter Event for Council. We transform a local building into Hogwarts and the girls spend the day doing science experiments with 'magic' names. I am teaching Divinations 3 this year - which is really a trivia and logic game. Last year I taught Transfigurations 2 which was origami.

9:20 am

musicmom

Morning Jen and Doxy.

9:20 am

smithchick

Too cool, jera. I just got the guilt phone call from my mother. "Why aren't you here? I thought you were going to come up today." RAWR!! I guess my house gets to wait another day. I'm going to try to finish my babbling first, though.

9:20 am

musicmom

poor smithchick.

9:21 am

Ouwachita

DONE...anyone need a clue??

9:21 am

Jen

I'm good Jera! How are you feeling? Fully recovered?

9:21 am

doxy1lover

smithchick, I hate those calls. I feel for you. I usually get, "why haven't you called me lately?" I only work full time, moving my daughter in this weekend, preparing for a wedding, etc, etc.

9:21 am

smithchick

Hello jen and doxy! Well, my house will survive. Obviously if it were more important, I'd be doing it instead of babbling. There are advantages to having the hubby gone weeks at a time!:)

9:22 am

musicmom

CONGRATS! Oaw! I'm not far enough along to want clues yet. Thanks.

9:22 am

smithchick

Woohoo, ouwachita!! We have the Ouachita mountains here and everytime I see your name, that's what I think of!

9:23 am

Ouwachita

where are you...I never heard of them??

9:23 am

Jera

Still very hoarse & coughing now & then. Had some heart trouble this morning (I have a murmur) because of the coughing. But congestion, fever & headache are gone, yea!

9:23 am

amandacath

I want incognito, regatta, sonnet and sonata!

9:23 am

smithchick

I hear you, doxy. My only consolation is the knowledge that I too have children that I will one day be able to guilt trip. (I hope- it doesn't work too well on my sisters).

9:24 am

musicmom

Amanda - I've been trying for sonata too.

9:24 am

smithchick

In Arkansas. They aren't huge mountains, but mountains. We won't be competing with the Rockies any time soon.:)

9:25 am

Ouwachita

I got the name off a canoe...I always tell people it means "man with large pe5/12"

9:25 am

smithchick

Sheesh, jera. Scary! Take care. Do you have a humidifier?

9:25 am

Jera

My husband got one of those calls from his sister a few weeks ago. He's a computer guru so everyone calls him with their stupid computer questions. But this one was at almost 10 pm & really she wanted to nag him since she's about to go to Africa... she's a missionary & he's agnostic... not a fun mix, especially since she's on the pushy side...

9:26 am

smithchick

LOL, ouwachita!

9:26 am

amandacath

I think that it is only fair that since there's no double-T for regatta, they let us put the double-N in sonnata

9:26 am

musicmom

That's as valid as the no vowel word a couple of days ago!

9:26 am

Jera

It's not really that big of a deal, i know what to do if it happens... I have tachycardia episodes. but I can do a breathing trick which calms it down 99% of the time. The worst part would have been having to pull over in traffic then getting back in line...

9:27 am

smithchick

All is not fair in babbleland, amanda... Much to my dismay. It kills me that it won't let you do perfectly normal words, and the cu** word makes it in. What's up with that!
Jera, I bet family reunions are lots of fun!

9:28 am

rosalind230

hi any clue for the sa 5/10 there are two of them after 5/16 4/4 any help please this my last word

9:28 am

Jera

Ooh, musicmom, I just read your Harry Potter bit... our Council has a Hogwarts day camp every summer... Sprite earned 8 badges last year at it!

9:28 am

Ouwachita

since no one needs a clue...I will get back to work...good luck all.

9:29 am

smithchick

Well, it's good that you can stay calm and/or calm yourself when you need too. It would be easy to panic.
Traffic is the pits. I would go crazy in a big city. Our morning drop off kids at school traffic almost sends me over the edge some mornings and our town only has 1400 people in it!

9:29 am

doxy1lover

bye ouwachita, and congrats

9:29 am

musicmom

Bye Ouw. have a great day!

9:29 am

smithchick

Bye, ouwachita!!

9:30 am

Jera

Fun for me, smithchick... everyone else seems to be oblivious but I'm stifling giggles as she chases him around (not literally, of course, just she'll come sit by him with this LOOK on her face & suddenly he needs to go check on the kids or get more food or something)

9:31 am

Jera

Thanks Ouwa... we are too busy chatting, I guess... see you later!

9:31 am

smithchick

Hi, rosa... one is the big guy in red with a different vowel and the other is like the fabric one with a different middle consonant. Are those the ones you mean?

9:32 am

rosalind230

Yes thanks smithchick I have it now good luck to you all I am off now bye

9:32 am

smithchick

Congrats, rosalind!!! Bye!

9:33 am

musicmom

Bye rosa.

9:35 am

Jera

smithchick the only time I really had trouble with my heart was when I was pregnant the first time, had to go to the emergency room twice for it... my poor body was freaking out! When I was a kid it used to make me pass out...

9:35 am

doxy1lover

jera, it sounds like the same thing 2 of my daughters have.

9:36 am

harpjane

Morning. 10 below F. And we're the warmest place in the state today....

9:36 am

doxy1lover

hi harpjane, stay indoors and stay warm

9:37 am

smithchick

How many kids do you have, jera? That might have seriously curtailed the number of kids I had! Is it because of your cf?

9:37 am

Jera

One of my funniest family moments was when I corrected a sister-in-law (not the missionary one, but she's very religious) about something in the Bible. The Pagan correcting the Christian... the look on her face was priceless (I don't have many mean moments, but she's kind of insufferable, gives Christians a bad name)!

9:37 am

smithchick

Wow, harpjane! Makes me grateful for our 30 degrees!

9:38 am

Jera

I have 2 kids, smithchick... I don't have sf, I have spina bifida & hydrocephalous, plues the unrelated heart murmur. It has some guy's name that i don't remember.

9:39 am

doxy1lover

jera, would it be Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome?

9:39 am

Jera

Where are you, harpjane? It's supposed to drop 40 degrees in under 12 hours here in Virginia

9:39 am

smithchick

Well, I'm a pretty religious person but I try not to push it on people. Even my family who were all raised the same way. Some don't practice religion at all, but they would all tell you they believe it.

9:39 am

Jera

I honestly don't know, doxy... what are the chracteristings?

9:41 am

doxy1lover

heart races usually because of an extra electrical circuit in the heart. My daughters have cardiogenic neurogenic syncope, which means their blood pressure drops, their heart races and they try to pass out.

9:41 am

smithchick

Sorry about that, jera. For some reason I had cystic fibrosis in my head. spina bifida...educate me (we got off on another tangent the other day when I was going to ask you about it).

9:42 am

harpjane

I'm in Hamilton Montana, southwestern part of the state, near Idaho.

9:42 am

amandacath

Can anyone help with the e's? I've got:
taking nourishment
long period of time
fencing equipment

9:43 am

Jera

Spina bifida is when the spinal column doesn't quite complete & sometimes there's an open spot at the base of the spine. It makes everything below the rupture a crap shoot. Jen can tell you how funny I walk... :D

9:43 am

smithchick

the only other one I've got amanda is the plural added to the root word of the ea6 that you have.

9:44 am

Jen

Hey I'm back... hubby called from his trip, dog peed on the floor, son slipped in it...

9:44 am

Jera

The ep7 has no definition... let me think up a good clue...

9:45 am

smithchick

But it isn't related to the passing out with pregnancy, right? What about the hydrocephalous?

9:45 am

musicmom

sounds like you are having a joyful morning Jen.

9:45 am

smithchick

Eww, gross jen. Your poor son!!

9:45 am

doxy1lover

jen, sounds like lots of excitement at your house.

9:45 am

Jera

The fun never ends, does it, Jen? Poor thing...

9:46 am

Jen

I think he's acting out because he has to stay in the bathroom at night and when we are at home, he can wander around.

9:46 am

Jen

The dog, of course, not my son. :) My son has a bed to sleep in. :)

9:47 am

mari

Jera don't forget the ep7 clue - I'm waiting with bated breath!!

9:47 am

Jera

I didn't pass out with the pregnancy, that was just when I was little. I just couldn't get it under control & it hurt! My heartrate was 186, very painful.

Hydrocephalus is too much fluid in the brain, I have a shunt that drains out the excess. I am a human barometer, though, can always tell when pressure is rising!

9:48 am

smithchick

LOL, jen. When I was pregnant with our fourth, we lived in a 700 sq. ft. apt. I told my hubby that if we didn't find a bigger place, the baby was going to have to sleep in the bathtub! How old is the poor innocent victim of your dog's unhappiness?

9:49 am

Jera

e + sharp sewing item, not a needle + 2 vowels, then normal plural. Whew! Not tidy at all, sorry...

9:49 am

Jen

4 1/2... I just don't know what I am going to do about the dog! We are down here for another 2 weeks!

9:50 am

smithchick

I'm behind, jen. Where are you?

9:50 am

smithchick

So does your head hurt when the pressure rises, jera?

9:50 am

Jen

Down in Florida visiting my parents whilst hubby is away.

9:51 am

smithchick

My hubby is in Florida right now for work (he goes every two weeks). He's in Miami. Hates it!

9:51 am

mari

Jera - it was a great clue - thanks a million

9:51 am

amandacath

Got it! Thx, jera. FYI, I googled it and it's "in architecture, is the open vestibule behind the nave" - the things one learns in Babbleland!

9:51 am

musicmom

Jera - great clue for the ep7 thank you so much!

I need to go do a few things with the kids be back later.

9:52 am

Jen

I'm up at the very top in Tallahassee.

9:52 am

Jera

Yes, smithchick, but I just up my meds a bit & I'm usually okay... unless it's a really big storm, then I take to my bed... the worst part is I can't cry, that just makes it worse!!

9:53 am

smithchick

Youch! You can't cry ever? Are you and jen related?

9:53 am

Jera

I didn't think to google... I just clicked on the dictionary.com link... I think if the link doesn't know, it shouldn't be valid. But that's just me...

9:55 am

Jen

Jera, please take care of yourself!! We need another coffee run when I get back! :)

9:55 am

amandacath

Most of the time I'm too lazy to look farther than the dictionary.com link too - but sometimes my curiosity gets the best of me.

I'm still missing 1 e ... anyone?

10:26 am

smithchick

Amanda, did you find your e?

10:27 am

amandacath

Nope - I've resorted to the list, but started at the bottom - still at the r's

10:28 am

smithchick

It's an eo6/18. Having to do with a measure of time

10:29 am

amandacath

Ah! Great, thanks. I was in the other corner...

10:29 am

smithchick

Your welcome!

10:29 am

smithchick

Jera, I hope I didn't offend you with all of my nosy questions.

10:31 am

smithchick

Well, I've got to go. Duty (and guilt) calls. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be socked in and will be able to babble to my heart's content! Bye everybody...

10:31 am

Angelsong

Jera, you have spina bifida?

10:33 am

doxy1lover

bye smithchick

10:57 am

hi hurshy

11:03 am

Munner

Hi there, Lupe

11:03 am

Lupe613

hi munner!

11:03 am

hurshy

yeah, i didn't like much at the louvre other than sculpture. i preferred the paintings at the musee d'orsay.

11:03 am

hurshy

and hi everyone. :)

11:04 am

Lupe613

I actually love both museums - the d'orsay does have some beautiful paintings!

Of the three an 4/4's in the middle, I have the bird ...

What am I missing, please?

1:09 pm

Haz1558

The two you are missing begin and end with the same letters as the bird. The third letters are consonants which follow each other in the alphabet

1:13 pm

Hello! It's freezing here (first and last day of winter!). I think the winds gonna knock our house into the trees. I've voided a trip to the store and decided to Babble myself retarded!

st7/28, anyone ?
and Hi Bunny :)

1:14 pm

cybernan

I have the insects, but two words that an an+consonant+plural?

1:14 pm

Haz1558

st 7/28 - ends in number between eight ten

1:14 pm

Vicuna

ea6 - having to do with ea4 (ending can be a man's name)

1:15 pm

Haz1558

Outnumbered - which ea 6 are you looking for?

1:15 pm

Bugzy

Thank you Haz !
:)

1:15 pm

Haz1558

Cybernan - one of the plurals is the latin ending (two vowels)

1:16 pm

outnumbered

I thought the list said there's only one ea6?

1:16 pm

Haz1558

You're right! I was looking at an eo 6 - the ea 6 has to do with food.

1:17 pm

Bugzy

ea6 is the present participle of the ea 4/4 (singular)

1:17 pm

Vicuna

cybernan, I think there are 4 an4/4's in the middle
birds, one that ends like the gent with the ark, and two that begin and end with the same letter, each having a different consonant second to last

1:17 pm

WHY am I missing these easy words??? ty though!

1:25 pm

My last word... re7/36... Help?!

Ahh.. thank you again! At least it wasn't a common word :)

1:36 pm

cybernan

re7 -- did you mean add the french paticiple to the 5/14? -- tried that and get a not valid!

1:37 pm

Bugzy

I can do it sometimes on the less than 100 words puzzles, but on these long ones I need BJ ( and sometimes a2z too) !

1:38 pm

Haz1558

Yes, add two letters to the re5/14 to give the word meaning reigning.

1:38 pm

Atalante

I do love a2z! I try not to use it, but its blissful when you open it and find a word you simply could not find!

1:40 pm

hurshy

ah, they weren't so bad. the pi's i mean.

1:41 pm

cybernan

Will have to go back to it, Haz -- tried them all and still come up with a blank.

The best part of the pi's was finding the pi7/32.
Great word, when one is being condescending :)

1:42 pm

Atalante

lol yes! its fab!

7:55 pm

Jacula

(Still got 9 words left to find here.) Was side-tracked for a while as my son arrived home, having driven down the lanes in thick fog, and told me of a strange experience he'd just had. The more he told me of the animal he had to drive around because it was eating something at the roadside and wouldn't move, the more I'm convinced it WAS a grey wolf that he encountered. Unlikely, but not impossible.

7:55 pm

LeslieAnn

ooh thanks outnumbered. didn't have that na either :)

7:56 pm

I'm still around for clue giving. Checking my email and watching the Olympics, I'll flip back and forth.

Did everybody already eat dinner? I am hungry but don't know what I want....... don't have a taste for my usual honey and raw salmon fresh out of the river - LOL

8:10 pm

We had Chicken Wellington, sliced peaches and green beans.

I made a shoofly pie but it tasted disgusting so we threw it away. Discovered that none of us like the flavor of molasses.

8:11 pm

musicmom

Mamabear - maybe you need some trout instead of salmon<g>

8:11 pm

Jacula

Yes, but the thing is, wolves no longer run wild here in the UK, as far as we are aware. However, there are some kept no more than 20 or 30 miles away. No distance for a wolf if it has escaped. Plenty of countryside for it to travel through unnoticed and plenty of Muntjac deer, rabbits and other prey for it.

8:11 pm

mamabear

Shoo-fly, don't bother me.... shoo-fly, don't bother me.... shoo-fly don't bother me.... for I belong to some-body.... I do, I do, I do.......

Chicken in pastry, I imagine. Like Beef Wellington.

i did - It is chicken in a pastry shell seasoned with cumin and oregano. White wine gravy on top. YUMMY!

8:16 pm

mamabear

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too..... Sounds like a ton of work!

8:17 pm

Jacula

MM - That sounds really nice. Can you post the recipe on my recipe thread in BabAnon, please?

8:17 pm

musicmom

This wasn't too hard --- the recipe called for using refrigerated pie crust from the grocery.

8:18 pm

musicmom

Yep I will go over there and do it right now. I substituted the cumin - the recipe calls for sage and I was out.

8:19 pm

Jacula

Well, Mama. Corned Beed Hash is quick and easy. All you need is diced potato, diced corned beef, onions, a dash of Worcester Sauce and a dash of tomato ketchup, and a good sprinkling of parsley.

ep7: "in architecture, is the open vestibule behind the nave"

8:47 pm

Sheryl - in the sa's, the lead up to the first sa6/24 is all to do with the past tense of 'crooning a tune'. You have the sa4 then a 5 which add the first vowel at the end, then a 6 which adds a consonant to that. The next sa6/24 immediately follows it but uses the 2nd vowel rather than the first penultimately.
