about 10 years ago neighbors lost both of their children in a car wreck; daughter had picked up younger brother at school, was stopped to turn into addition and a semi literally ran over them

12:35 am

NonnieLight

Sorry to hear, Andree and you're right. I don't think it ever goes away.

12:35 am

NonnieLight

Oh my gosh, dee...how sad!

12:35 am

cjmomma

I could not imagine that and I'm sure that does stay with you forever

12:35 am

VolleymomDee

our entire neighborhood was devastated... they ended up moving... couldn't stand staying in house...

12:36 am

VolleymomDee

but their church and friends rallied around them, and they managed to get up every day, managed to stay married, but impacted forever, for sure

12:37 am

that pain in your heart would stay on till the day you die

12:37 am

VolleymomDee

2:29 am

sprite

so sweet, I asked Caya's teacher if she could be allowed to leave school 30 minutes early today, so she can come too. And he agreed, saying we never ask for favours.

2:30 am

sprite

they are immensely cute, aren't they

2:30 am

MonkeyGames

Awww, that's nice! I'm so glad she gets to come too!

2:33 am

MonkeyGames

And my phantom of the day is HUGE, two words, and driving me nuts: bowhead whale

2:33 am

MonkeyGames

There are 60 words in this grid. They are fun. The other 22 aren't real.

2:34 am

sprite

2:34 am

MonkeyGames

Not weird at all.

2:34 am

joshuavorbis

joshuavorbis

2:34 am

o-o

2:34 am

ah, so you say, josh, so you say. It still remains to be proven by an outside expert.

2:34 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, when you notice the mathematician, don't discount him as proper-- he works!

2:35 am

sprite

And it is good to see you, hello to you too.

2:35 am

o-o

another grid so easy my pet rock rolled its eyes

2:36 am

MonkeyGames

Speak for yourself! Sigh. Still, I'm not at my best lately, I admit it. And I can't find my pet rock.

2:36 am

sprite

ah now we know your secret, BabbleRabble. We have to make do with monkeys. You have a pet rock!

2:37 am

MonkeyGames

MonkeyGames

2:40 am

kangabrat

a dog in an apartment is not fair for the person and especially not fair for a dog

7:30 am

is that because someone was found with an over abundance of dogs and or cats like about 9 or 10... of each maybe?

Scrabbler

Looks like Jacq is conjugating verbs

7:57 am

jwr

jacq that looked like a Latin declension

7:58 am

jacq

if jacq knew what conjugating meant she might agree, and if she knew what a verb was she would probably say you were right

7:58 am

Scrabbler

Declension is a big word, jwr.

7:58 am

jwr

verb tenses for a ballpoint pen?

7:59 am

sandyloo

I dont like flying either scrab

7:59 am

Scrabbler

Actually I enjoy flying, looking out the window, but the idea of crashing is what freaks me out.

12:18 pm

Hi, kids! Just finished this pup. Anyone need clues?

12:18 pm

caitlyn

Hi Judi, congrats !! Im ok thanks finished it earlier

quail

Hi Judi, I just discovered babble last night. I'm learning.

caitlyn

Welcome to babbleland quail, I hope you enjoy it, ask if you have any questions

12:20 pm

cherlyq63

12:21 pm

caitlyn

Compound word, negative plus a question

12:21 pm

cherlyq63

ty,

12:21 pm

caitlyn

yw

12:22 pm

quail

thanks

12:23 pm

caitlyn

quail the trouble with this game is that you get addicted!!

12:24 pm

quail

I can tell already.

12:24 pm

caitlyn

LOL

12:24 pm

rbud

yes, and it doesn't take long for the addiction to set in! ;p

12:25 pm

caitlyn

That is so true rbud

12:27 pm

Judi

No5/20: would never happen. ever ever.

12:27 pm

caitlyn

LOL Judi

12:28 pm

cherlyq63

2 to go

12:28 pm

caitlyn

Go cherly Go !

12:28 pm

Judi

Sorry for the lag. I was playing with my new IPod Touch. Waaaaay toooo coool for me.

12:29 pm

caitlyn

Oh No , 2 addictions now !

12:30 pm

Judi

I'm afraid so, caitlyn. And both at the same time! Thank God I don't have ADD!

12:30 pm

caitlyn

rofl

12:31 pm

words

my 7yr old granddaughter does have ADD - it's no joke.

12:32 pm

cherlyq63

I have it too, words, no offence was meant I am sure

12:32 pm

caitlyn

We are not laughing at ADD words, we were joking about Judi getting addicted to 2 games

12:34 pm

words

it's ok - I didn't mean that I was offended! I just sometimes feel that not enough is known about the condition & the child can be wrongly labelled/ and other children of that age are not sympathetic.

12:36 pm

caitlyn

A family I know has 2 children with it, I agree there is not enough research they tend to just treat with drugs, which isnt enough

12:37 pm

cherlyq63

had to teach my kids to stop think and act something that alot of kids need to do, not just ones with adhd

12:38 pm

rbud

They use the terms ADD and ADHD a lot these days. When I was young, it was "fidgety" or "bored" and they would find something for a kid to do. Like chores! lol

12:38 pm

cherlyq63

I agree, meds arent the only answer, takes patience, and teaching or redirecting

12:38 pm

words

my elder granddaughter doesn't have it - we're waiting to see if their 21mth old brother shows signs of it.

12:38 pm

cherlyq63

didnt find out I had it till found out my kids did

12:39 pm

caitlyn

I agree with all three of you

12:39 pm

cherlyq63

I just fidgeted my way through school lol

12:39 pm

words

how does it manifest itself with you cherly?

12:39 pm

caitlyn

But you are coping well cherly

12:40 pm

cherlyq63

mostly fidgeting and impulsiveness

12:40 pm

cherlyq63

yep, have done well, though layed off right now

12:40 pm

cherlyq63

going to try to go back to school to be a teacher

12:41 pm

cherlyq63

so I can work with add kids

12:41 pm

caitlyn

Well done that is fantastic, what a great role model you will be

12:41 pm

words

that's a brilliant idea - these kids need someone teaching them who can identify with them.

12:42 pm

cherlyq63

yeah, well my kids both have add, son also a little dyslexic so hopefully I have learned something I can pass on

12:43 pm

quail

I once worked with a school supt. who was diagnosed with ADD after he became supt. He was very understanding of ADD kids.

12:44 pm

rbud

our town has a little grade school, two and three class levels together in one room. Our son got bored the 3rd year he heard the same things, and the trouble with him started. They were not at ALL understanding.

12:44 pm

caitlyn

All it needs are people like you cherly and the supt that quail new , perhaps then the way foward will be clearer

12:45 pm

cherlyq63

that happens in big schools too rbud

12:46 pm

cherlyq63

once had a teacher tell me she had the perfect class till my son came to her school

12:46 pm

caitlyn

Time for me to cook now, see you all tomorrow
Good luck quail

12:46 pm

cherlyq63

my daughters teacher was just out of school and didnt know girls could have add, she put 4 at the same table all with add

12:47 pm

rbud

they have no patience with kids who "act out" any more, they want them all to be good little students. Bye, caitlyn!

12:47 pm

cherlyq63

by caitlyn, nice talking to you

12:48 pm

rbud

I'll bet that table of 4 was quite the handful, cherlyg!

12:48 pm

cherlyq63

thing is kids with add usually have a good iq they just learn difffernt

12:48 pm

cherlyq63

yep

12:48 pm

cherlyq63

differetn

12:48 pm

cherlyq63

cant type

12:49 pm

cherlyq63

I am going to put my daughter in a charter school next year with hands on type teaching and see how she does

12:50 pm

words

thanks for sharing all your experiences - it's quite amazing how many sufferers there are.

12:50 pm

rbud

yes, our son is very intelligent, but was never reallly challenged, so he started to think of ways to cause trouble instead.

12:51 pm

cherlyq63

yep, my son was same way

12:51 pm

rbud

good idea, cherlyq, hope your daughter does well!

12:52 pm

joey

12:52 pm

joey

never mind. usung the wrong of. sorry

12:52 pm

cherlyq63

thats ok we are of5 lost around here

12:53 pm

rbud

lol!

12:53 pm

quail

Just remind your kids that they shouldn't lower their sight because others try to limit their futures. My brother was told he had an IQ score too low to be a policeman unless he just directed traffic. So he got his PhD and taught crimianl justice at the university level.

12:54 pm

rbud

That's wonderful, quail! Good for him!

12:54 pm

cherlyq63

thats the way to do it

12:56 pm

rbud

and how rude of them to tell him such a thing!

12:58 pm

rbud

well, shoot, speaking of fidgety, I've put off giving our little dog a flea bath for too long, I'm off to get wet! Good luck to all!

12:59 pm

cherlyq63

2:11 pm

Atalante

Yes! Every! Thing! It's just like certain Babblers!!!!

2:11 pm

Uniquity

:) I use the ellipses to death, but that is not the point of the day ...

2:12 pm

Atalante

exclamations are the point

2:12 pm

Uniquity

Atalante

oh true. hmmmm.

2:23 pm

The number of people in Britain with surnames like Cockshott, Balls, Death and The number of people in Britain with surnames like Cockshott, Balls, Death and Shufflebottom has declined by up to 75 percent in the last century. (Reuters)

2:24 pm

ok . . . The number of people in Britain with surnames like Cockshott, Balls, Death and Shufflebottom has declined by up to 75 percent in the last century. (Reuters)

2:24 pm

Uneaixoise

(chat continues its weirdness with me today!)

2:24 pm

Uniquity

Have they been changing them, or the lines just dying out?

2:24 pm

oodleberry

I would tend to have to agree with uni

2:24 pm

sadie52

lol unea

2:25 pm

Uneaixoise

in many cases, people probably changed their surnames as they came to be regarded as in bad taste. "It's because the meaning of words can change. Take the name Daft -- that as a term for a stupid is a relatively recent innovation."

2:25 pm

Uniquity

Oh, chat is always weird. Good to spice things up a bit. At least we've moved past Tele!Tubbies!

2:25 pm

Uneaixoise

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Daft meant "mild" or "meek" in Old English, whereas it means "foolish" today.

2:25 pm

sadie52

chat would not be any fun if it was not weird

2:26 pm

Atalante

I know someone with the surname d'Eath

2:26 pm

Uniquity

There are a lot of Potties and Outhouses in NS.

2:26 pm

Uneaixoise

I LOVE "Shufflebottom"! LOL

2:26 pm

sadie52

for which im sure the residents of NS are very relieved

2:26 pm

sadie52

hehe

2:26 pm

Atalante

is that because indoor plumbing hasn't arrived there yet?

2:26 pm

Uniquity

I love the OED. Look up words for my classes all the time.

2:26 pm

Uneaixoise

Well, and I grew up in a small town with a number of Titsworths

2:27 pm

Uniquity

How would you know that, Ata? You never visit! :)

2:28 pm

Uneaixoise

BTW welcome back, Uniquity!~

2:28 pm

Atalante

I would soooooo love to visit NS. I've always wanted to!

2:28 pm

Can anybody chat, or is the chat always dominated by the few?

2:28 pm

quail

I have 7 of the B words: a 4/6, 4/6, 4/7, 4/6, 4/6 ,4/6, and 5/22. one not spelled for fish, one who lost, some earth, a sad place, part of a skeleton, a goodness, and some guts.

2:29 pm

2:29 pm

sadie52

if i can chat anyone can

2:29 pm

Uniquity

Thanks Une! My net works and I can now babble every day again. I have a feeling you will revoke your welcome eventually though, I tend to monopolize chat :)

2:29 pm

Uneaixoise

don't be silly! Chat's an equal opportunity space! :-)

2:29 pm

Hi all of you pumpkins - no school today for me so I thought I would drop in - yahoo "only" 82 words, is it a tricky one?

2:33 pm

Atalante

2:38 pm

Uniquity

I would like to watch for Jon & Kate...but at the same time, I want the whole family to have time for itself. I don't think my desires as a viewer should supercede the safety of the family, especially after that gossip scandal.

2:38 pm

Uneaixoise

i never liked barbies so I guess it was easier for me to chop her tete off!

2:38 pm

oodleberry

very even tempered... well he gits agitated but doesn't yell or scream

2:39 pm

Oodle, the reason he wanted to end the show was because of all those rumours that he cheated on Kate. I would want to drop out of public too, I think.

2:39 pm

Uneaixoise

5:06 pm

stidmama

still, if you want, the offer is open!

5:07 pm

Andree

just saw your receipe nrk, never heard of canned pumpkin

5:07 pm

nrkii

your sofa is a little far away though stid, but I appreciate the sentiment

5:07 pm

nrkii

Andree, usually right next to canned pumpkin pie filling

5:08 pm

nrkii

first two letters of the 8 please?

5:08 pm

Andree

we eat pumpkin here with every roast, have it mashed, every baby gets it in their baby food etc etc, in america you use it in desserts,lol

5:08 pm

stidmama

well, I will keep you in my heart, nrk. and see you-all later (tomorrow most likely) -- I am off to take a nap!!!!

5:09 pm

nrkii

night stid!

5:10 pm

nrkii

Andree, I've also made stuffed pumpkin as a main dish

5:10 pm

nrkii

stuffed with meat, potatoes, etc

5:10 pm

Andree

pumpkin soup is every aussie's favourite

5:11 pm

nrkii

I love pumpkin soup, and butternut squash soup, when done right

5:11 pm

nrkii

how do you get the pumpkin for pumpkin soup -- not in a can? straight from the pumpkin itself perhaps?

5:12 pm

nrkii

if so, just mash up same pumpkin and you can make the muffins with that

5:13 pm

Andree

have never even seen a can, not available here, pumpkins are cheap and plentiful, we buy it in pieces or whole or if you are like me you grow your own

5:15 pm

Andree

i have a whole lotof butternut pumpkins lying across my lawn, will be ready soon

5:16 pm

nrkii

yum

5:17 pm

Andree

its funny how food differs from country to country even though we speak[sometimes] the same language

5:18 pm

CiociaJudy

{{{{{NERKY}}}}} How's you? How's Dad?

5:18 pm

nrkii

hi CJ!!!

5:19 pm

Andree

hi cj

5:19 pm

nrkii

Dad made it through yet another surgery. This surgeon said his left lung is horrible, and he's amazed the other surgeon even attempted the last procedure

5:19 pm

CiociaJudy

Hi Andree!

5:19 pm

nrkii

I'm starting to lose it today. Too damn tired.

5:19 pm

car.eeyore

{{{hugs nrkii}}}

5:20 pm

nrkii

thanks car :)

5:20 pm

CiociaJudy

{{{Hugs}}} Nerky. Wish you lived closer; we could drink and veg.

5:20 pm

CiociaJudy

I know what that is like; ain't an easy time and absolutely mentally and physically exhausting.

5:20 pm

nrkii

no light at end of tunnel yet... no idea when I will get to go back home

5:21 pm

CiociaJudy

are you staying with Mom?

5:21 pm

cybernan

hello everyone -- small and nasty? :)

5:21 pm

CiociaJudy

Hi, Nan!

5:21 pm

nrkii

yes, I'm up in Massachusetts staying with my mom

5:21 pm

CiociaJudy

OH NO!! Didn't realize that!!!!!

5:21 pm

nrkii

cnan, not too nasty, but generally yes that's a good description

5:22 pm

Andree

hope all is well soon nrk and you can go home and rest

5:22 pm

nrkii

I haven't been home in 2 weeks, and even then I was only home for one night to get more stuff and come back

5:22 pm

car.eeyore

nrkii...near the hospitals?

5:22 pm

nrkii

I feel guilty because I just want to go back to NJ

5:22 pm

Andree

hi nan, nasty a good description

5:22 pm

CiociaJudy

It is a bit easier when you can get to your own place and sleep in your own bed during such trying times.

5:22 pm

car.eeyore

nrkii...don't feel guilty about wanting to be home.

5:22 pm

nrkii

my parents live about 20 minutes from a very big hospital and trauma center

5:23 pm

nrkii

so he's getting very good care

5:23 pm

CiociaJudy

did the surgeon say the surgery today was "successful"?

5:23 pm

car.eeyore

I only ask because I am about 20 minutes from Boston...if there is anything I can do for you or your family...you let me know!

5:23 pm

Andree

will he be able to come home soon nrk

5:23 pm

nrkii

thanks car... my parents are in Springfield

5:23 pm

car.eeyore

Ahhh...the other way...but I am still nearby if you need anything!

5:23 pm

nrkii

surgeon said today was successful, but his lung needs months to recover

5:24 pm

nrkii

he's still in ICU

5:24 pm

CiociaJudy

geez. sounds like a long recovery. :(

5:24 pm

nrkii

if today's surgery achieves what it was meant to, they can get him off the respirator in a few days, then to a regular room, then to rehab facility, then home

5:25 pm

CiociaJudy

do you have any other siblings up there?

5:25 pm

nrkii

so I'm figuring I will be here at best another month to two months

5:25 pm

Andree

sounds as though you are there for the long haul

5:25 pm

nrkii

one brother is close by, the other is in Ohio

5:25 pm

CiociaJudy

Oh my goodness, Nerky!!!

5:25 pm

nrkii

but I'm the girl, and I'm the one who's unemployed

5:26 pm

CiociaJudy

it usually falls on the "girl(s)"

5:26 pm

CiociaJudy

how ironic that this happened while you were unemployed!!

5:26 pm

nrkii

Mom-support generally does fall to girls, yep

5:26 pm

nrkii

CJ, it happened 2 weeks after my mom retired, and 1 month after I lost my job

5:27 pm

car.eeyore

Hmmmm....

5:27 pm

CiociaJudy

OMG!!! there are four girls in my family but I'm the oldest so I always seemed to be in charge

5:27 pm

nrkii

so we have that going for us, anyhow... not having to worry about our jobs in the middle of all this

5:27 pm

CiociaJudy

well, that's a little less stress

5:28 pm

nrkii

it definitely helps

5:28 pm

car.eeyore

I am off the the drug store, but nrkii...the offer stands. Hang in there and I will continue to pray for you all.

5:29 pm

CiociaJudy

keep writing your updates on Facebook, nerky.

5:29 pm

nrkii

thanks car! night!

5:29 pm

CiociaJudy

5:29 pm

Andree

5:30 pm

CiociaJudy

my sisters did help Andree but the phone calls w/doctors and medical forms, etc. etc. seemed to be my job

a day of waiting here ... father-in-law was taken to ER on saturday, yesterday "decided" that his aortic stent OR bowel had twisted .. my better half flew out to be there yesterday and i haven't heard anything all day. supposedly waiting for the surgeon to take a peek at the films. he's elderly (88) but in better shape than men half his age, so i'm hoping for good news

6:56 pm

thankfully, work was incredibly busy today, so it kept my mind elsewhere ... maybe i should go back to work

7:47 pm

Dorens

Jacula

EEK!

Nope. LOL

Jacula

I was just indulging in a little silliosity.

7:49 pm

72 Temple Owl

hello jacs!

7:49 pm

Dorens

well, this bears out what we've noticed before... short grids don't invite us to hang out and chat... vini, vidi, vici and all that sort of rot.

7:49 pm

Jacula

Hi TO.

7:49 pm

Dorens

owler, there you are to keep jac company

7:50 pm

Jacula

I came, I saw, I conquered. I do that every day, so why do I keep going down in the rankings? I still can't work out how it's calculated. LOL

7:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

must go drier buzzed

7:50 pm

Jacula

Nope, Dorens. TO prefers the company of her laundry. LOL

7:51 pm

Dorens

i know, those stats are strange.... for the longest time i've won every game, yet the person above me gets further above me and the one below me gets closer and closer. i might get an inferiority complex

Ditto, Dorens.

72 Temple Owl

easy peasy can do veg or meat stuffed

8:07 pm

Jacula

D'you think so, TO? I thought it was like riding a bike. A bit wobbly when you try again but you soon get the knack back.

8:08 pm

redturtlehead

I am not the best cook, but I admit to not really liking anything with green peppers involved.

8:08 pm

72 Temple Owl

well i got iut betty crocker, could not remember if egg was used

8:08 pm

Jacula

Not that I've ever been given the chance to stop cooking.... Haven't ridden a bike for a very long time, though.

I never rode a bike, cant.

8:09 pm

Fresh vegs are so easily available here in UK TO. I didn't realise until last year that they're not in the US.

8:10 pm

Jacula

'Bye wild.

8:10 pm

Jacula

I can't imagine not being able to use fresh ingredients.

8:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

they are. just easier to use frozen &less waste for oone

8:12 pm

Jacula

I'd get more to harvest from my own veg patch if there weren't so many slugs and snails in it, and mice. There's one less mouse now; cat just brought one home.

8:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

well to the business at hand. 8 to find including that ab5

8:13 pm

Jacula

You can freeze the fresh stuff, TO, but frozen vegs are better than fresh that have been kept for days. Frozen when picked retain more nutrients.

8:34 pm

kje

8:58 pm

Jacula

Me, too, Scrabbs. African folklore is particularly scary!

8:58 pm

Scrabbler

(Ruru)--doing OK?

8:58 pm

Jacula

re6 is the tax thing you might get back if you paid too much.

8:58 pm

rururocks

not yet scrabs

8:59 pm

Jacula

Or what a carpenter might carve into a piece of wood to lower it.

8:59 pm

Scrabbler

((Ruru)) This too shall pass. You are already a resilient person.

9:00 pm

Jacula

I thought it was quite good that this grid not only has me4 (cat noise) but also a dog noise (wo4 and 6).

9:00 pm

Jacula

Hi ruru.

9:00 pm

Scrabbler

And I am now done! Off to bed. i am exhausted, but I am on call and there are 2 kids in the ER still, and another going into surgery.

The worst farter I ever knew was my aunt and uncle's Boxer dog, Mitch. He was more foul than foul can decribe in the car on the (then) 4 hour jounrey to Wales. All we kids in the back with him were green-faced and hanging out of the windows. That dog had the foulest gasses ever.

9:06 pm

Harnesses for the bed? That's a bit S&M, ruru! LOL

BSM = British School of Motoring.

Not my scene, but the scene of a very close friend. I volunteer at the Fetish Flea and have done so for many years....

9:18 pm

Jacula

Dominatrix is fine, victim, I don't understand.

9:18 pm

Jacula

What the hell is the fetish flea, I hardly dare ask, Pam.

9:18 pm

pam

I long ago stopped myself from analyzing it...

9:19 pm

BSM= Bull Sh** Monitor?

9:20 pm

GreyWoulf

It is one of those things that defies analysis -- those who participate can describe why it is important to them all they want, but for those of us who merely observe the scene it will never be truly comprehensible

9:20 pm

cwestexan

thanks jac

9:20 pm

lbdawger

WOULFIE!!

9:20 pm

Jacula

Hi Wolfie. I sure didn't expect to see you here to explain that.

9:20 pm

pam

Indeed, grey....

9:21 pm

GreyWoulf

HI all!

9:21 pm

dcseain

hi, woulf

9:21 pm

dcseain

well saide, woulf

9:21 pm

Jacula

How's the family and yourself, Wolfie?

9:22 pm

GreyWoulf

We are all fine, Jac -- though it is looking like I have developed allergies for the first time in my life

9:22 pm

Jacula

Oh no! Allergies to what, Wolfie?

9:22 pm

lbdawger

bummer, woulf. do you know to what?

9:22 pm

pam

UGH, grey. They say this could be the year for allergy virgins....

9:23 pm

dcseain

tsk. just found wa5.20, and i'm reasonably near UVA. shame on me

9:23 pm

GreyWoulf

I haven't a clue, all I know is that for the past week or so, I have been living on claritin and sudafed so I can breathe properly --- I have no other symptoms except for the clogged nose

9:23 pm

Jacula

I have an allergy to seeing my new dentist, who I don't like, but I liked the guy he took over from. That might explain why I'm up late and might miss my appointment later.

9:24 pm

Jacula

Sounds like a hayfever thing, Wolfie, unless something new has been introduced to your home or workplace.

9:25 pm

GreyWoulf

I am planning on seeing the doctor later this week to get his opinion.

9:26 pm

Jacula

Think about anything new in your life before you see the doc, Wolfie.

9:26 pm

Jacula

It may help him to diagnose.

9:26 pm

lbdawger

good to have it checked out, Woulf. allergy tests are good to have done so you know what to avoid.

9:26 pm

GreyWoulf

Not much new here, except for the decision to come back to Babble on a much more regular basis and keep in touch with everyone

9:26 pm

Jacula

I didn't get hayfever symptoms until about 4 years ago.

9:26 pm

Jacula

My Mum was the same.

9:27 pm

Christine

Whoo, this is such a small grid, I completed it in the time I allow myself. (But I want a flashier fireworks display -- the sort of thing you get with Spider Solitaire).

9:27 pm

Jacula

allergy tests can be misleading. Best to follow your nose (so to speak) and think about what's around you.

9:28 pm

Christine

goodnigt all

I read a university paper today that seems to prove that anorexia nervosa is due to a mis-wiring of the brain in most cases and not due to any outside influences. I had a very angry moment then, thinking of all the 'who shall we blame today?' so-called family therapy sessions we, and other families of children in the clinic where my daughter was were subjected. No member of a family was exempt, unless a speechless babe in arms, from the blame culture.

9:31 pm

sandyloo

wolf, I hate taking antihistamines, they make me tired even if they are 'non drowsy' i us beconase nasal spray and it seems to cure the hayfever without ingestion of tablets

9:32 pm

GreyWoulf

I am with you sandy -- I would much prefer to avoid the pills whenever possible -- thankfully I am fairly resistant to most of the lethargic side effects of many of the over the counter meds

9:33 pm

Jacula

I said back then, when I was dashing between the eating disorders clinic and the ward my Dad, who had Alzheimer's Disease (dementia) was on, that I didn't think anorexia had outside causes necessarily and that I thought it was either a chemical or wiring imbalance in the brain.

9:35 pm

sandyloo

Jac, I tend to agree with you, I often think our instincts are right. After my dealings with the Nicky and the medical profession!!!

9:35 pm

dan2bit

can I have a clue for the corner E?

9:35 pm

Jacula

What really annoys me is not the scars I'm still trying to heal from one of the let's flame and blame sessions, but the fact that young children from other families may have been damaged when they were fine before. Young children are so quick to blame themselves when anything goes wrong. They don't need so-called 'experts', adults, so-called at that, helping them onto the blame road.

9:36 pm

pam

I am resistet to those, too, grey and take Zyrtec in the morning and benadryl and a nasal spray in the evening....

9:36 pm

Jacula

el4 - pzzazz - or try the antelope without the 'd' at the end, dan.

9:37 pm

dan2bit

that's the mid-column e, jac - have that one

9:37 pm

pam

can't remember that antelope word....

9:37 pm

GreyWoulf

I have been looking at the Zyrtec but am hesitant to spend the money on it right now -- the claritin sort of works enough

9:38 pm

pam

I used to use Claritin and/or Tavist, but the Zyrtec seems to work better for me. Most chain drug stores sell a generic....

9:38 pm

Jacula

en5/12 - cut off word for HUGE, dan.

9:39 pm

aha! tx jac

9:39 pm

pam

thanks, jac

Jacula

e + what a plane does when it hits the runway, pam.

9:39 pm

sandyloo

I have tried other nasal sprays- the Beconase is a cortisone based spray that only acts locally and has been really successful for me- I think allergies are a very individual thing

9:39 pm

GreyWoulf

as I said, I will be seeing the doc soon and will discuss the differences with him then

9:39 pm

pam

ahhhh, thanks, jac. Have the el4, did not realize that that was the antelope word, LOL

9:46 pm

Jacula

mkg - thanks for your support on that subjct. If you read enough papers, especially those written by anoretics, you wonder why the medical profession hasn't listeneed before. Probably because the ones in charge are all older MEN.

new to babble...which methods can you use to create words?

11:09 pm

torgone

Check out the Help box . . . . . . . .^

11:10 pm

Pinikula

welcome aboard...

11:11 pm

Pinikula

(hint: it's like playing Boggle [if you've ever played that before])

11:11 pm

noskcaj

thanks...help has 4 letters in it too!

11:11 pm

Pinikula

no less than 4 letters per word

11:14 pm

Pinikula

getting the hang of it?

11:15 pm

sandyloo

hi again guys

11:15 pm

Pinikula

hi sandy

11:15 pm

noskcaj

yep...I was in a word search mode and that was mostly useless. Angles help a lot!

11:16 pm

Pinikula

very much so, nosk

11:16 pm

sandyloo

you can use Lickety's clues nosk

11:16 pm

Pinikula

when the board flips, you'll see alot of babblers calling out hints to words they find...

11:16 pm

Pinikula

don't be afraid! :)

11:17 pm

sandyloo

the idea of the game is to complete each day's grid

11:17 pm

Pinikula

which means you have 24 hours to find all of the words

11:17 pm

noskcaj

dare I ask what a Lickety clue is?

11:18 pm

Pinikula

It flips every night at the same time (i.e., watch the clock in the upper right hand corner of the chog - midnight is bewitching hour)

11:18 pm

sandyloo

LOL, you will find it in the section below

11:18 pm

Pinikula

Lickety's Babble Clues (located near the bottom under Friends of Babble)...

11:18 pm

Pinikula

...it will give you a list of all of the words - but only the first 2 letters and then their length and point value)

11:19 pm

noskcaj

Thanks

11:19 pm

sandyloo

pini, do you remember when you first started, I found all of these things such a mystery, but eventually all was revealed

11:20 pm

Pinikula

no kidding, sandy...boy have we come a long way!

11:20 pm

sandyloo

indeed, and some people even have an addiction-luckily I have remained in control

11:21 pm

Pinikula

I'm with you, Sandy...under control...yeah, that's what I call it, too... LOL

11:22 pm

sandyloo

I must admit, I am meant to be doing the 'Tax Of Evil" but when i am near the computer ...........

11:22 pm

Pinikula

i thought about doing those, too...but, well, you know how it goes...babble comes first!! LOL

11:22 pm

sandyloo

JC, are you here?

11:23 pm

Pinikula

Nosk...did you take a peek at Lickety's List? If so, is it helping?

11:23 pm

Pinikula

oh, ps sandy...I gave up on MW a few months back *patting self on back*

11:24 pm

sandyloo

MW?

11:24 pm

Pinikula

morewords

11:24 pm

sandyloo

oh more words- i am still a user

11:24 pm

sandyloo

you must be 'fabulous' pini!

11:24 pm

Pinikula

I've been practicing on length and point value....almost a science now! NOT!

11:25 pm

Pinikula

oh, gosh, no not fabulous...but getting better and better everyday! :)

11:25 pm

sandyloo

I dont really get the point value thing- but I try not to use lickety or more words until i am really desperate

11:25 pm

Pinikula

Want a quick lesson?

11:26 pm

sandyloo

I am definitely getting better

11:26 pm

Pinikula

it's not as hard as you might think :)

11:26 pm

Pinikula

IMHO

11:26 pm

noskcaj

no...I'm roughing it for now. Up to a whopping 7 words...I gotta slow down a bit

11:26 pm

sandyloo

No people in the "real world" will play Boggle with me anymore!

11:26 pm

Pinikula

git'r dun, Nosk...you have 34 minutes until the flip!!! :)

11:27 pm

sandyloo

open another tab and look at lickety , it will really help nosk

11:27 pm

Pinikula

Me either, Sandy...it's almost sad!

11:27 pm

sandyloo

LOL, they keep saying I am cheating...ha ha I don't know how ?

11:28 pm

Pinikula

either that or they make you define every word you use!!! now, that's tough!

11:28 pm

sandyloo

It is quite amazing how many words I can get at Boggle- I wouldn't like to be playing with any of you though

11:29 pm

sandyloo

Now that would be interesting!

11:29 pm

noskcaj

no time for tabs...I'm on a 4 letter blitz

11:29 pm

Pinikula

I'd be scared to play others here! I mean, sheesh, FB Scramble masacres are bad enough! LOL

11:29 pm

Pinikula

go nosk go!!!

11:29 pm

sandyloo

imagine the desecration playing with Sprite or Dart

11:30 pm

sandyloo

go Nosk, and stay for the flip

11:30 pm

Pinikula

I'd give before starting with them! ;)

11:30 pm

Pinikula

(oh, yes, do stay for the flip!!!!)

11:30 pm

sandyloo

not go as in leave LOL

11:30 pm

Pinikula

You too will soon be assimilated; resistance is futile!

11:30 pm

sandyloo

hehehe

11:31 pm

sandyloo

We are the Borg

11:31 pm

Pinikula

11:32 pm

11:44 pm

Andree

11:45 pm

Andree

11:45 pm

11:45 pm

Pinikula

11:46 pm

sandyloo

11:46 pm

sandyloo

11:47 pm
