Eva

Can I help with anything before disappearing. Have to pack Merp up and head for the city today. He doesn't know yet, but he always figures it out in time to make it a major trauma for both of us.
5:41 am
Trifioso
I am missing one f, but don't know what it is. making me say another f word, though!
5:41 am
Eva
I'm actually packing my suitcase in the basement so he won't catch on quite as early.
5:41 am
Eva
There is a list today Trif-do you not want to use it?
5:42 am
Eva
You know, that f word has never been in a grid that I can recall
5:42 am
Trifioso
I have 9 f4s, 8 f5s, and 2 f6s. what am I missing, please?
5:43 am
Trifioso
I try not to list when I can help it, eva....
5:44 am
Eva
builds off of some of the others
5:44 am
Eva
I don't list until I'm under 20, or in this case 10 since it was such a small grid, but then it keeps me from beating my head against the wall
5:45 am
Eva
another clue or not?
5:45 am
Trifioso
Thanks eva...I am searching. I don't chat until NBT, or one off, and I never list until over halfway. I have only 7 words left, so I am desperately trying to finish without it.
5:46 am
Trifioso
ummmm. let's see - baby deer or magic computer machine?
5:46 am
Eva

aknitter
morning elizabeth - just stoppiong in for a fix before work how are ya
5:48 am
Trifioso
hey there, knitter!!! so, it's back to work?
5:48 am
Trifioso
by the way, are you in the loop with peter?
5:49 am
Trifioso
he lost his job :(
5:49 am
aknitter
oh no that is terrible - what is he going to do?
5:50 am
Trifioso
but there is good news! he was out of work for a couple of months, but has a new job in vermont with a food company. He is really quite excited about the opportunity, but it is going to be hard on the family - they are staying in K so julia can stay in school, and nicole owns the shop and all....
5:50 am
aknitter
vermont! well at least that is good. so many are out of work
5:51 am
Trifioso
things here are in stasis, sort of. I found a collaborative lawyer that I reall like, but Mr. Hate has yet to sign on to the idea...meanwhile, he has recarpeted his house, been doing painting, got the pool all fixed up...gee, wonder where THAT money has been coming from?
5:51 am
Trifioso
and I had to get secondo a scholarship to go on the school trip to DC. toooooooool
5:52 am
aknitter
probably from your pocket
5:52 am
Trifioso
way to put the kids first, huh?
5:52 am
kje
get the lawyer to freeze the accounts pronto
5:52 am
aknitter
i never understand how guys (mostly) can do that
5:53 am
Trifioso
he is livid over the idea that "he" has to pay for both lawyers - the idea is, the legal fees come out of the joint money, dear....problem is, he doesn't think ANY of the money is mine. he thinks it is all his.
5:53 am
Merk
Good morning
5:53 am
aknitter
i like to think all money is mine too -- yours included
5:54 am
Trifioso
it's not that simple, kje - the retainers haven't been paid yet, as I have no access to our joint accounts at present (and don't think THAT won't come up!) so I can't actually file anyting
5:54 am
kje
just like my sister's ex.... her lawyer said, the way to get to the guy is via his wallet, to the women, via their emotions... everytime her ex acts out, he sends reams of paper to his lawyer and then ex has to pay... ex is behaving better
5:55 am
kje
how can you have no access to JOINT accounts
5:55 am
Trifioso
smart woman, that sister of yours!
5:55 am
aknitter
pi 8 clue (begs politely)
5:56 am
kje
pi8 cheese or stuffed olives - add extra vowel
5:56 am
Trifioso
it's the little red thing in a olive, with an extra vowel, knitter
5:56 am
aknitter
ooo love olives
5:56 am
kje
I am missing a f4 how the heck can i miss a 4
5:56 am
aknitter
hey have you been watching the news? plymouth is all a-buzz
5:57 am
Trifioso
he works for pay, I don't, kje. he set up another checking account in just his name, puts his paycheck in that, and puts juuuuuuust enough money in the joint account.
5:57 am
Trifioso
what's up in plymouth?
5:57 am
kje
keep track of all that - the judge will have a heyday - they frown on anything that jeopardizes the kids
5:58 am
aknitter
more of the eldery driver crashes into crowd story - some women ran into the crowd yesterday in front of the vietnam traveling wall
5:58 am
Trifioso

5:58 am

5:59 am
Trifioso

5:59 am
aknitter

Well, I imagine some repairs will be asked for, I just hope there is nothing that will cause the buyers to back out. I so want rid of the home.
6:51 am
mrpresident
people fall in love with a house, no matter what, and buy it.
The new owners bought the home cause of the positive energy and loving feeling that we put into the home
6:51 am
LoriP
***Glad I didn't ask for f clues, or the teasing woulda' been brutal***
6:51 am

4:12 pm
redturtlehead
Congrats Soodle, its ok, i already had it.
4:12 pm
Mom
Red, how did the home inspection go?
4:13 pm
redturtlehead
I have heard nothing yet, Mom, which I think is good news, it was todya, not tuesday. My realtor got confused.
4:13 pm
Rebeckyjojo
congrats soodle!
4:14 pm
Mom
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you (& my toes and eyes)
4:14 pm
redturtlehead
Soodle, are you all tingly?
4:15 pm
redturtlehead
thanks mom, I need a lot fo the crossing!
4:16 pm
Mom
you are so welcome, Red. I do hope you hear something soon
4:17 pm
redturtlehead
I'msure there will be a list of repairs coming down tomorro.... but hopefully it isnt anything serious.
4:18 pm
Mom
would you rather repair than knock the cost of the repairs off the price?
4:18 pm
redturtlehead
Probably easier to repair, realtor has gotten me really good deals in the past.
4:19 pm
redturtlehead
but, we shall see.
4:20 pm
Mom
If you don't mind, I will ask you about it again
4:20 pm
Mom
next time our paths cross on babble
4:21 pm
redturtlehead
Oh no Mom, its nice that you can stand to listen, its been such a long time trying to sell the home...
4:22 pm
Mom
I enjoy hearing all about you goings on.
4:26 pm
redturtlehead
Are you feeling settled in your house now?
4:29 pm
Mom
we are, thanks for asking
4:29 pm
Mom
it is nice to be in an area that has sidewalks
4:30 pm
redturtlehead
I understand that entirely, Mom, its one thing i think makes certain places livable, and others not so much.
4:30 pm
Mom
once the new highway goes in where we use to live it will have sidewalks too
4:30 pm
Mom
this is nice though
4:31 pm
redturtlehead
Boo on new highway.
4:31 pm
Mom
I walked to my parents on Sunday, it only took 23 minutes
4:33 pm
redturtlehead
Oh, we are so excited about the Orlando magic being in the playoffs, though I thnk they will lose!
4:34 pm
Mom
that is pretty cool. You never know, the Lakers might bomb
4:36 pm
redturtlehead
I think it will bring in some economic boost, which I am pleasedabout, we have a pretty high jobless rate.
4:36 pm
Mom
that is terrible Red, so many people out of work
4:37 pm
redturtlehead
Yes, I think things are starting to change, but slowly.
4:37 pm
Mom
I hope so. A lot of people are out of work up here too
4:39 pm
redturtlehead
I am starting to see a pick up of travel nurse companies offerring jobs again, so I take that as a good sign.
4:42 pm
Mom
a very good sign. Do you like where you are now?
4:43 pm
redturtlehead
I love FLorida. I'm feeling pretty settled now, and enjoying that, just house selling anxiety.
4:43 pm
Mom
which will soon pass. Are you renting or have you bought another house?
4:44 pm
redturtlehead
renting, for at least a year. Would be nice to take advantage of that 8000 tax credit but, its not the right time yet.
4:44 pm
Mom
maybe they will extend the credit into next year
4:46 pm
redturtlehead
Maybe, but either way, real estate in Fl is not rebounding so I should be able todo ok when I do decide to buy.
4:46 pm
Kazzer99
evening all - first visit of the day - i've been watching the new batch of strange people going into big brother
4:47 pm
Mom
I know the people we bought this house from bought a house from a couple who was transferred to FL and they got a million dollar home for less than half that
4:47 pm
redturtlehead
Hi Kazzer. I assume you are Fi**?
4:47 pm
Kazzer99

4:47 pm
Mom

4:48 pm

4:49 pm
Kazzer99

4:49 pm
redturtlehead
Could someone give a clue for the De7, 44 Number 2 I have the person who tells what words mean....
4:50 pm
Mom

5:17 pm
KatieMcG
James purnell - work and pensions did it as the polls closed - sent an open letter to Gordon telling him to go now!!!!
5:18 pm
Kazzer99
oh dear - looks like things are gonna get worst for mr b before they get better - if they ever do
5:19 pm
KatieMcG
I've got to the stage that I'm finding it really funny now, it's got sooooo ridiculous
5:20 pm
Kazzer99
i went and voted though - i feel you should its your only chance of having a say
5:22 pm
Kazzer99
you're right - he's going to run out of folks and the expesnses thing really gets my goat - i'm a civil servant and our claims for expenses are really scrutinised - you have to have receipts for every thing and you are told all the time to be on the guard for overclaiming and such like
5:22 pm
TXZinnia
Hi, all -- pi 8/50 is the red thing in an olive a favorite type of cheese spread

5:27 pm
Kazzer99
yes its not good - trouble is they all seem as bad as each other
5:27 pm
Kazozz

cybernan
hi all -- back for the 23 I didn't find last night
6:07 pm
Dorens
hi all.. back to try to finish here
6:09 pm
hurshy
i got such a rude email today.
6:09 pm
Dorens
and that was........?
6:11 pm
hurshy
i had sent out invitations at work to a lecture followed by dinner. some people have asked me what time the dinner is, with the lecture being at 4. so i tell them, about 5:30. this doctor replied to me (who did not set the date, time, venue, guest list, or anything) and said, "we're not driving around florida looking for an early bird special here!" and went on about how he couldn't leave his patients that early and whatnot.
6:12 pm
Dorens
what a jerk
6:14 pm
Dorens
people like that make you appreciate people who do have manners, though
6:14 pm
hurshy
i mean i did not make the plans, but if i had, i mean, how would i be expected to know everyone's schedule? and in fact a lot of the guests, i think, ARE old people who probably LIKE early dinners, and why should the world revolve around this guy?
6:15 pm
Dorens
and all he has to do is say, no thanks... doesn't work for me, and not show up. big deal
6:15 pm
hurshy
yes. the sarcasm was highly unnecessary.
6:16 pm
Dorens
i had a school trip to ellis island today and it was a lot of fun, so i am in a good, but tired, state of mind
6:16 pm
hurshy
oh, are they letting people on ellis island again? it was closed awhile ago, wasn't it?
6:17 pm
cybernan
*!* ta da *!*
6:17 pm
Dorens
i think the statue of liberty was... and the island has been open for a long time, just weren't letting people in for a while, but now they are.... we also stopped at liberty island and walked around, took gazillion pictures, but didn't go in.... gawked at people up there though
6:17 pm
Dorens
yay nan and same here
6:17 pm
cybernan
^5 dorens
6:18 pm
cybernan
back at the flip :)
6:18 pm
Dorens
^5 nan (that's new for me... cute)
6:18 pm
Dorens
not me, i'll be sleeping at the flip. need any clues hursh?
6:18 pm
hurshy
no, i'm done.
6:19 pm
hurshy
i remember my 5th grade field trip to the statue of liberty
6:19 pm
Dorens
well then ^5 hurshy and bye all... hope to see you tomorrow
6:19 pm
hurshy
my mom was a chaperon but i still managed to have a good time.
6:19 pm
Dorens
oh. did you enjoy it hurshy?
6:20 pm
Dorens
good. I think Ellis Island was not open then... depending on just how young you are... the restoration was going on the in the 80's i think
6:20 pm
Dorens
where did you grow up hursh?
6:20 pm
hurshy
we sat at the very back of the bus, which at the time was considered cool. i had the window seat and leaning against it, you could see the whole length of the bus, and a cute boy in the middle of the bus looked back and saw me and smiled and waved. that was pleasant.
6:21 pm
hurshy
i was living in rhode island when we went on this field trip.
6:21 pm
Dorens
kids still think the back of the bus is cool. i always sit in the front row and pay no attention to them unless they get very very loud
6:21 pm
hurshy
another boy kept coming to the back of the bus, to the bathroom. my mom was wondering why he needed it so much and then we found out he was "checking his hair"
6:22 pm
Dorens
how about the statue? or do you just remember the busride?
6:22 pm
hurshy
so the next time he came down the aisle, my mom said, "your hair looks great, joey", and he just went back to his seat without going in the bathroom.
6:22 pm
Dorens
your mom had good sense of humor
6:22 pm
hurshy
the statue was also nice. i enjoyed heights very much.
6:22 pm
hurshy
my friend carolyn did not.
6:23 pm
Dorens
i did as a child... not the same in my dotage
6:23 pm
hurshy
she got so flustered that she had to go down the steps sitting down, whereas i was taking them two at a time.
6:24 pm
Dorens
poor kid, she was probably embarassed
6:24 pm
hurshy
hmm, i don't know. she never seemed to get embarassed.
6:25 pm
Dorens
oh that's cool... kids usually are loathe to show their fears publicly like that
6:25 pm
Dorens
at least middle school kids, which i'm assuming you were then
6:25 pm
hurshy
of course, like the Doctor, one of my favorite parts of any place is the little shoppe at the end.
6:26 pm
hurshy
we were fifth grade, so about ten.
6:26 pm
Dorens
oh absolutely... my kids today were waving around these stupid pens with lightup statues of liberty on the tips... that kind of silly stuff
6:27 pm
hurshy
the trouble is that when you're little you can't afford any of the souvenirs that you really want, even though in adult terms they aren't expensive.
6:27 pm
Dorens
lots of these kids came with $20 for souvenirs... and these are not wealthy people. i was shocked actually
6:28 pm
hurshy
and in conclusion, may i remind you that it does NOT say RSVP on the Statue of Liberty.
6:28 pm
hurshy
yes, $20 is a lot!
6:28 pm
hurshy
that's why they're not wealthy people - wasting it all in shoppes.
6:29 pm
Dorens
that is part of it. but i guess the parents felt this was really special... not too many of them take their kids into the city
6:30 pm
hurshy
i know. i joke.
6:30 pm
hurshy
however, my mom was not a believer in anything being special enough to warrant spending extra money.
6:30 pm
Dorens
but no, i often think that these folks are so unwise in how they spend their money.. they might not be rich no matter what, but they certainly could stretch their dollars if they were more mindful.
6:31 pm
hurshy
or if dollars were made of rubber.
6:31 pm
Dorens
lol. yes, you do joke. well, i'm off now.. see you tomorrow hursh
6:40 pm
aknitter
hi all might there be a clue for the re7 word please it is taunting me

9:33 pm

Welki, have you been to Savannah?

we're on the Freedom 85 plan ... will be 85 before we can retire!

12 years in alberta sort of changes the way we react to heat and humidity *we wilt*

9:36 pm

Oh, wow. Yes, it would be quite a change. Your friend is right....some of my neighbors went down this winter and now they want to move. Maybe you could visit your friend and see how you like it. Have you seen or read "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"? It is a true story.
