Is anyone else having trouble with seeing the grid? Every day for the past 3 days there is always one letter that does not show up on the main grid but I know what it is from the lower one.

12:05 am

I could not finish yesterday's because it wouldn't accept a word it should (at least according to ruru)

12:06 am

jillibus

LoriP

G'd Morning Babblers! How's this grid?

4:22 am

Bugsaw

I don't like it but some people have finished

4:23 am

LoriP

lol, they look like weird letters to me. Extra coffee, stat!

4:23 am

Bugsaw

I am lost without Lickety

4:24 am

LoriP

Oh, yep. Red it is on entry. Bugs, I'm sure someone posted a list somewhere, they usually do.

4:27 am

Bugsaw

Haven't found one yet

4:28 am

LoriP

Well, hang tight, someone will announce one soon.

4:28 am

Andree

hi just popping in, josh posted a list

LoriP

G'd Mornin' Andree. There ya' go Bugs!

4:29 am

Bugsaw

Wow. I never knew he did that. I know he is fast!

4:30 am

rbud

there's a list now in Bab Anon, I was working on one, posted it, and saw BR beat me to it. So I edited my post.

4:31 am

rbud

Wish I knew how to delete posts there, but alas, it eludes me.

4:31 am

o-o

sorry, I did a hurry-up .... you likely did a better job

4:35 am

LoriP

Just leave the post rbud, bragging rights! lol :D

4:39 am

jacq

morning everyone

4:39 am

LoriP

G'd morning jacq

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all.

4:40 am

jacq

heya Lori

4:41 am

Norma

Morning all ... Is there a way of printing off the stats in babanon ???

4:41 am

LoriP

Hazaurus! Anyone know if there's more than 2 az's? I'm missing an a. :/

4:41 am

rbud

oh, my list was about the same, but I had divided up the sections. No biggy, just good that one is there. :)

4:41 am

LoriP

Exactly rbud. It's all good, and belated Congratulations by the way.

4:41 am

jacq

so how is the grid?

4:42 am

Haz1558

Norma, if you copy and paste to a Word document, that should work.

4:42 am

LoriP

Morning Norma, copy it and throw it in notepad or something similar and print it.

4:42 am

jacq

heya Haz

4:42 am

Haz1558

Hello jacq.

4:42 am

jacq

hello Norma

4:42 am

Norma

Thanks Haz/Lori I will try it

4:42 am

LoriP

jacq, I'm still in the honeymoon phase. :p

4:44 am

Haz1558

At least two azwords

4:44 am

jacq

ok so 50 50? or 90 10 like last night?

4:44 am

Haz1558

Both az5

4:44 am

LoriP

Yup, had those Haz. darn! Mercy Buckets

4:46 am

Haz1558

If the letters would get themselves better arranged, you could have azalea as well. Pity.

4:46 am

LoriP

Well, as compensation for my missing a, I finished the i. Coffee!

4:47 am

LoriP

Indeed, not very obliging of them, is it Haz.

4:47 am

Haz1558

The i words didn't see you coming. From which tile are you missing an a?

4:49 am

Haz1558

(Drumming fingers impatiently while Lori fills her coffee cup)

4:50 am

jacq

must be the higher one Haz, she asked if there was another az

4:50 am

Haz1558

Good thinking, jacq.

4:50 am

jacq

ty

4:51 am

Haz1558

Then I predict it's either the celebrity one or the Pisa one...

4:52 am

LoriP

Sorry, sorry sorry, but coffee takes time... and yes, jacq knows the truth behind the query....

4:52 am

LoriP

I have al 5, so I'm pondering the celebrity.

4:52 am

Haz1558

So, are you any closer?

4:53 am

Haz1558

The Pisa one? Descriptive of?

4:53 am

LoriP

ahhhhh. That's it! at 5 ***blushes***

4:54 am

LoriP

May I also add....Doh!

4:54 am

Haz1558

I'll just smile benignly.

4:54 am

LoriP

Riiiiight. Glad for the support.

4:55 am

jacq

lol

4:56 am

LoriP

Mercy buckets by the way, inspite of my urge to be snide. really, I'm in no position to do so.

4:56 am

Haz1558

Not that you need it, you 'll still find more than I will.

4:57 am

Haz1558

Yes, do try to avoid being sn5/12

4:57 am

jacq

lol

4:57 am

Haz1558

Otherwise you know what punishment awaits.

4:57 am

LoriP

Gah. That's just the icing on the moron cake now, isn' it. ***trudges off***

4:58 am

jacq

i love the chog and the interplay here

4:58 am

Haz1558

Sorry!

4:58 am

jacq

puts some choccy into the pn for Lori and for myself later

4:58 am

jacq

gah, pb too

4:59 am

LoriP

heh heh heh

5:02 am

LoriP

Finishing the z, more redemption!

5:03 am

jacq

wtg lori, i think i am lacking coffee and brains, or maybe just brains, can't see the words for the letters

5:04 am

LoriP

The bottom h is perplexing me. I like to finish the bottom row to set my screen, but so far.....pooposity!

5:05 am

Haz1558

I'm missing 2 from there.

5:05 am

Haz1558

1 to go.

5:06 am

jacq

go Haz!!

5:06 am

Haz1558

Oh please, no pressure, I can't race to save my life.

5:06 am

Haz1558

As witnessed by everyone on every sports day.

5:07 am

jacq

lol

5:07 am

LoriP

lol, Do not go gently tripping in to that good night Haz.

5:07 am

Lizsark

hello everyone :)

5:08 am

LoriP

Ooh, 3 now

5:08 am

Haz1558

Hello Liz!

5:08 am

LoriP

Liz! G'd morning, and put up the Closed sign!

5:08 am

Lizsark

HAZ!!!!! LORI!!!!

5:08 am

Lizsark

LOL Lori - already got people in I'm afraid!

5:08 am

Haz1558

C'est nous!

5:08 am

LoriP

Oh my Hazaurus. Look'it all those ---->!!!!!!!

5:09 am

Haz1558

I know, I'm shocked.

5:09 am

Lizsark

Sorry Lori. I will calm down :)

5:09 am

Haz1558

I think we're really going to have to get Al Gore to make a film about the diminishing stocks of punctuation marks.

5:10 am

LoriP

A dwindling resource just being depleted so callously!

5:10 am

Lizsark

i will not ever never use punctuation marks again

5:10 am

Haz1558

That environmental thing he did seemed to have an effect, so I have confidence that he can make a difference.

5:11 am

Haz1558

No, Liz, it's not the use that's the problem, it's the over-use, the abuse that's causing the exclamation mark to be in danger of extinction.

5:11 am

Haz1558

Meanwhile the apostrophe is similarly abused but seems to have some sort of breeding programme underway.

5:12 am

Lizsark

I feel solely responsible for my irresponsible over-usage of said marks

5:12 am

Haz1558

Don't let it keep you awake at night. I know you have enough worries with Oscar, the amazing bouncing dog.

5:13 am

Haz1558

How IS Oscar?

5:13 am

Lizsark

Oscar is fine. Its cats I have a problem with today

5:13 am

jacq

but if we don't use them won't we lose them, underuse can be just as dangerous, if we fail to show their importance they may remove them from keyboards

5:13 am

Haz1558

Oh, they're a law unto themselves.

5:13 am

jacq

hello Liz

5:14 am

Lizsark

I had a feral kitten in the house last night. Tiny thing. Savaged me. Have been at the doctors getting my hand stitched this morning. It hurt so bad I passed out! Sorry misuse of exclamation mark again.

5:14 am

Lizsark

hi Jacq

5:14 am

FMitch

Good morning Haz, Liz, Lori and jacs.

5:15 am

jacq

Haz1558

Good morning FM.

5:15 am

jacq

heya FM

5:15 am

FMitch

5:15 am

Haz1558

That exclamation mark is entirely justified. Wee brat of a cat!

5:15 am

Lizsark

FM (obviously I would like to use exclamation marks here but I won'r) LOL

5:15 am

Lizsark

*won't*

5:16 am

FMitch

LOL me too, I feel bereft without an exclamation mark

5:16 am

LoriP

G'd Mornign FM!

5:16 am

jacq

i rarely use mine, feel free to use my allocation

5:16 am

FMitch

Hi Lorikins exclamation mark, exclamation mark :)

5:17 am

LoriP

Hah! Only missing 1 h now.

5:17 am

Haz1558

Ladies, ladies. Use your exclamation mark, but use it wisely.

5:17 am

FMitch

how is the grid today, didn't get around to doing yesterdays :(

5:17 am

Lizsark

Ooo Jacq!! A free rein!!!!!

5:17 am

Haz1558

Wisely. Wisely.

5:17 am

LoriP

So far so good. Honeymoon stage still....

5:18 am

FMitch

5:18 am

jacq

lol

5:18 am

Lizsark

Excellent FM :)

5:19 am

Haz1558

Can we not store Ata's up against the day when something amazing happens?

5:19 am

FMitch

prudent thinking Haz

5:20 am

Haz1558

I think so. Who knows what might happen that might require them?

5:20 am

jacq

if you're going to save them for world peace forget it, as man becomes more creative he also becomes more destructive and greedy

5:20 am

Haz1558

Lori might vacuum.

5:20 am

jacq

LOL

5:20 am

FMitch

LOL!!

5:20 am

Haz1558

See what I mean?

5:21 am

LoriP

I'm still here ya' know......

5:21 am

Haz1558

I might sew something.

5:21 am

FMitch

sorry, got carried away.

5:21 am

jacq

lol

5:22 am

Lizsark

I'm off on holiday on Monday and I hereby bequeath all my exclamation marks for the foreseeable future to FM :)

5:22 am

jacq

why vaccuum when you can babble?

5:22 am

Haz1558

The li4/4 is endless. I think we should store some up.

5:22 am

FMitch

Yay! thanks liz, where are you off to?

5:22 am

jacq

feel free to store mine

5:22 am

Haz1558

Oh, where are you going on holiday, Liz?

5:23 am

Lizsark

Spain FM, not far from Barcelona :) We're away ten days

5:23 am

Haz1558

(Starting to worry about Oscar and kennels)

5:23 am

Haz1558

Is Oscar going to kennels? Are they specially reinforced ones?

5:24 am

FMitch

Oh lovely Liz

5:24 am

Lizsark

Don't be daft! (Sorry) Oscar is off to stay with a friend where he sleeps on the bed at night.

5:24 am

jacq

oh nice Liz

5:24 am

Lizsark

he gets spoilt rotten and never wants to come home after.

5:24 am

jacq

lol pampered, nice

5:25 am

Lizsark

hey this'll give you all a giggle. Guess what I signed up for....

5:25 am

jacq

i remember looking after a friends rottweiler, he slept on my bed, he also scared the bejesus out of my ex husband, who used to just walk into the house as if he still lived there

5:25 am

Lizsark

I'm going skydiving :)

5:25 am

Haz1558

I'm sure Oscar will appreciate it.

5:25 am

FMitch

OMG!

5:25 am

jacq

i forgot to tell him we had the dog, have never seen a man run so fast in my life, and he managed to jump the fence too LOL was so funny

5:25 am

jacq

he always knocks and waits now

5:25 am

Haz1558

I know, Liz - I saw it in your profile before and wondered about calling the authorities.

5:26 am

FMitch

How funny jacq.

5:26 am

jacq

Liz we want a detailed report of the skydiving

5:26 am

Lizsark

The ones with white coats?

5:26 am

jacq

<<< scared of heights, not scared of falliong but scared of hitting the ground at the end

5:26 am

Haz1558

Yes, just to do a wee check on your thinking.

5:26 am

Lizsark

Its not till October Jacq but I will definitely bore you all silly with tales !

5:27 am

FMitch

are you mad Liz? Don't answer that as I think it is a rhetorical question.

5:27 am

Lizsark

Eek sorry I used to e-mark again

5:27 am

Haz1558

It's a great cause, Liz.

5:27 am

Lizsark

oh Jacq - I suffer from serious vertigo :)

5:27 am

FMitch

I rest my case.

5:27 am

LoriP

Hah! Finished the h whilst you all pilfer away 'yer time chatting, being social and happy.

5:27 am

jacq

oh wow, i hope you enjoy it

5:28 am

Lizsark

Grrrrr Not fair Lori - just coz we questioned your hoovering skills

5:28 am

jacq

i went abseiling once, was in actual shock by the time i got to the bottom

5:28 am

Haz1558

You're venturing into sn5/12 territory again, Lori.

5:28 am

jacq

wtg Lori!!!

5:28 am

Lizsark

oh dear Jacq. I think that will be me

5:28 am

jacq

again, why hoover when you can babble?

5:28 am

LoriP

Unless the plane is malfunctioning, you could not push me out of a perfectly well flying plane.

5:28 am

zoozzoom

I take it cyber bullying is going on again Lori..shame on them..And well done on getting all the `h` words :-)

5:28 am

FMitch

was Mrs Lori being smug there for a moment?

5:29 am

jacq

heya zooz

5:29 am

LoriP

Not sn 5/12 so much as (in Ata Hari's absence) ***smug***

5:29 am

Haz1558

I'm not great with heights either. I have to look away at photographs of people standing on cliff edges etc. I feel they'll be drawn dowwwwwn.

5:29 am

jacq

lol smug suits you

5:29 am

FMitch

Morning zooz

5:29 am

LoriP

Thanks zooz, good that someone has my back! :) G'd mornin'

5:29 am

jacq

brb looks like rain and i have laundry out

5:29 am

Lizsark

Ata wanted to return but Haz alerted the authorities - shame on her

5:30 am

Haz1558

(zooz is a bit of a crawler isn't he? Don't tell him, though.)

5:30 am

zoozzoom

LOL..yer right..hey isee your name is in the grid then HaZZZ

5:30 am

LoriP

Ata's multiple identities could help or hurt her. Hard to say how it will play out. :p

5:31 am

FMitch

it is about to pour down here - again *sigh*

5:31 am

Lizsark

here too FM

5:31 am

Haz1558

I am indeed, zooz.

5:31 am

LoriP

We've not seen the sun in well over a week. Today is more of the same.

5:31 am

zoozzoom

I could not do sky diving..too scared of heights..hope you enjoy it Liz.

5:32 am

Haz1558

Ata's multiple identity thing would be fine if she would just remember to stick to the proper story for each one.

5:32 am

Lizsark

It'll be hot in Spain :))

5:32 am

FMitch

summer was lovely, all 2 weeks of it :(

5:32 am

FMitch

*huffs at Liz*

5:32 am

Lizsark

40 degrees :) mmmmmmm

5:32 am

Lizsark

*now who's smug*

5:33 am

zoozzoom

Yes..so much for "we are in for a hot summer this year"..no chance.

5:33 am

Haz1558

40? My husband would melt, literally end up in a puddle of sweat at my feet.

5:33 am

FMitch

pfft, it doesn't suit you.

5:33 am

Lizsark

Its so dry the heat out there though Haz, not muggy. Its lovely.

5:33 am

Haz1558

zooz, the Met Office have declared, yet again, that they got the long range forecast wrong.

5:34 am

zoozzoom

what a suprise...i could of told them that two days after they forcast there original statement..LOL

5:34 am

FMitch

the hottest I have ever experienced was 49, incredible feeling, like walking around in a huge oven.

5:35 am

o-o

the National Weather Service is providing winds chills here

5:35 am

Haz1558

Why issue the thing if there's a good chance that it won't be accurate?

5:35 am

Lizsark

*muses to self* Not sure about swimming with a gooey hand though

5:35 am

zoozzoom

That would be a little bit too hot for me.

5:35 am

zoozzoom

Hello BR..lol

5:35 am

Haz1558

Why the gooey hand? With all the rubbing in of suntan lotion?

5:35 am

FMitch

imagine if the Met Office got it right all of the time? What would us Brits have to talk about then?

5:36 am

Lizsark

LOL Haz coz of the stitches

5:36 am

zoozzoom

probably clues for this grid..LOL

5:36 am

Haz1558

Ah! I'd forgotten about the stitches and the implications.

5:36 am

FMitch

how much damage did the cat do Liz, how many stitches?

5:37 am

Lizsark

It'll be fixed by Monday I'm sure :)

5:37 am

Lizsark

4 I think FM. I was tryng hard to stay conscious at the time so I wasn't paying attention

5:37 am

jacq

got to go be back soon

5:37 am

Haz1558

Salt water is good for healing - that's if you're swimming in the sea, of course.

5:37 am

zoozzoom

Bye jac

5:37 am

FMitch

Bye jacq

5:38 am

Lizsark

No....pools.....hot pools....... mmmmmmmmmm

5:38 am

Lizsark

bye Jac :)

5:38 am

Lizsark

I'm only halfway with this grid. Way too much chatting going on :P

5:38 am

Haz1558

I think you're approaching this holiday in entirely the wrong spirit, Liz. By law, English people have to wrap up warm and pack windbreaks for when they head to the coast.

5:39 am

Haz1558

Blame Lori, Liz, she's a desperate chatterbox.

5:39 am

Lizsark

Its ok Haz, I have the stale egg sarnies at the ready :)

5:39 am

FMitch

Oh goodie, yes lets blame Lori :D

5:39 am

Lizsark

I know! I do wish Lori would be quiet!!

5:39 am

Haz1558

Well done. And the flask of tea?

5:39 am

FMitch

she is being way to industrious

5:40 am

zoozzoom

yes i have only found 30 words..better dive in i suppose....i think lori is going to shout fireworks soon. :-)

5:40 am

Haz1558

She's trying to get to top spot in rankings, I just know it.

5:41 am

Lizsark

yes, the flask is stewing nicely

5:41 am

LoriP

Rankings? Never look at 'em. I rankle enough as it is....

5:41 am

Lizsark

I may have to knot up a hanky to wear on my head, and take some socks to wear with my sandals. What do you think?

5:41 am

Lizsark

I wondered what the smell was Lori LOL

5:41 am

zoozzoom

LOL Lori.

5:42 am

LoriP

: D

5:42 am

Haz1558

Absolutely, Liz, the knotted hankie is de rigeur.

5:43 am

Haz1558

Must take a five minute break, back shortly....

5:44 am

FMitch

is that what they call a retro chic look Liz?

5:45 am

Lizsark

I think its called post-80's vintage holiday wear

5:45 am

Lizsark

bye Haz

5:46 am

Lizsark

I was just chatting to some friends on facebook. They all seem to think I have OCD. Call themselves friends??

5:47 am

FMitch

OCD, nah - mad, yes!!

5:47 am

Wolvie

morning all

5:47 am

o-o

hello, Wolvie

5:47 am

FMitch

oh and while Haz is not here we could go mad with exclamation marks!!!!

Hi Wolvie and BR

5:48 am

zoozzoom

Hello Wolvie.

5:48 am

Well, I was a visual arts person in HS. Went to college for cultural anthropology and then decided to go premed. I learned my Physics and Chem as an adult. I emphathize with the kids and try to sing and dance enough that they can grasp some of the finer points. It is tough for them to think analytically.

10:53 pm

Pinikula

is that kinda like the ei**(s) of March?

10:53 pm

Jacula

Yes, Dorens. You know me so well.

10:53 pm

Pinikula

I raised both my girls and my GD for 6 years...miss her terribly now

10:54 pm

Jacula

ei4/5 = add an 'r' and soft duck feathers and you get an old-fashioned bed cover.

10:54 pm

Jacula

Pink - GD?

10:54 pm

Pinikula

really, jac...didn't know that and I have a "feather bed cover"

10:54 pm

Dorens

girls are so smuch more difficult, jac. for most of us.. particularly early adolescence... (spoken as mother of 2 boys, one girl, and teacher and guidance counselor of many, many over the years)

10:55 pm

Pinikula

I'm looking forward to the "ease" of a little boy, Dorens...I haven't enjoyed that experience yet.

10:55 pm

Pinikula

en's?

10:56 pm

Jacula

Dorens - I still can't understand how her own mother could just abandon her like that. Well, she still takes calls and texts but nothing that might ruffle her life.

10:56 pm

Dorens

i've always found them easier... and Levi is proving me right once again... he is so peaceful

10:56 pm

Dorens

her own mother must have some severe problems of her own, jac

10:57 pm

Minveryork

en 6/21 is like in6 word.en+anagram of food regimen.

10:57 pm

Pinikula

thx min ;)

10:57 pm

Jacula

Step looks to me for love and cuddles (which I can't give yet unless I can see she is genuinely upset). Sh also looks to me for answers, which I also can't give. I mean, you can tell a young girl that her mother is a selfish bitch and always has been, can you?

10:58 pm

Minveryork

yw

10:58 pm

Dorens

you're in a no-win situation jac... damned if you do, etc

10:59 pm

Pinikula

I can only wish you both the best, jac...and hope that things get easier for both of you sooner than later...

10:59 pm

Jacula

Dorens - her own mother's father abandoned her at about the same age she's abandoned her only child. He set himself up with another woman and family (some of which were younger than her - but his kids) not far away from her home.

10:59 pm

Minveryork

L's licked! 5 left

10:59 pm

Pinikula

git'r dun, min!

10:59 pm

Dorens

try to listen to her as much as you can, and let her know that you hear her and understand.. that is most important

11:00 pm

Dorens

she has a right to be confused, angry and bitter... but you can't badmouth her mother no matter what

11:00 pm

Pinikula

good advice, dorens ;)

11:01 pm

Pinikula

It's amazing what can be accomplished if the other person knows your "hearing" them rather than just listening

11:01 pm

Dorens

best words from you concerning her mother would be something to the effect that "she isi probably doing the best she can"

11:02 pm

Minveryork

I'm taking a break to play pinball. I'll be back to finish

11:02 pm

Jacula

It's more or less what I say, though I was forced to say I'd never forgive her.

11:02 pm

Dorens

i'll probably still be here min

11:02 pm

Pinikula

hb min ;)

11:03 pm

Jacula

Stepdaughter is trying to forgive but asked me if I would. I'm an honest person and couldn't lie.

11:03 pm

Dorens

and you are doing the best that you can too, jac... in a difficult situation such as that, no one will always be able to do or say the right thing. give yourself a break, right?

11:03 pm

Jacula

Other Half's Mum said far worse in a short burst of emotion.

11:03 pm

Dorens

never say never -- or at least try not to... tell her that

11:04 pm

Dorens

if you can

11:05 pm

Jacula

No, I will not forgive her mother for the agony she put her daughter through. As a mother, who has been to hell and back with her own daughter through no fault of her own, I know how strong mother lov can be.

11:06 pm

Jacula

No, I can't forgive her mother for putting a child-abusing boyfriend before her own child.

11:06 pm

Pinikula

I've learned that forgiving is meant more for the person saying it than the person no the other end...i.e., "letting go of it because you can't change", but also knowing that you may never like, see, talk with, or even "know" the other person again --- an idea I'm still trying to come to terms with since I've never looked at "forgiveness" that way.

11:07 pm

Pinikula

I can relate to what Jac is saying but for different circumstances.

11:07 pm

Pinikula

gosh, I hope that made some sense

11:07 pm

Dorens

jac i did some pretty rotten things (as a mother) when i put a boyfried before them... hard to admit, but I did make some horrendous choices. i am so fortunate that they can look beyond that now...

11:07 pm

Jacula

I wouldn't call that forgiving. I'd call it shutting it out.

11:07 pm

o-o

perfect sense, Pini

11:08 pm

Jacula

Dorens - did you put a man who had sexually abused your child before worrying about your child?

11:08 pm

o-o

more and more studies show that those who do not forgive only hurt themselves

11:08 pm

Pinikula

en6/18?

11:09 pm

o-o

forgiveness does not mean you condone what has happened or that a reconciliation is required .. it means you recognize the bitterness is hurting you

11:09 pm

Jacula

finsih + first three letters of how we say we're a couple now, and **em.

11:10 pm

Pinikula

...so, although I've not been able to put my arms around that forgiveness theory, I do know that my focus has changed to work on the relationship that I'm really after and only speak to those I can't seem to "forgive" because they're the roadblock to the person I so desperately strive to retain a relationship with.

11:11 pm

Jacula

BR - I'm Taurean, and we do not forgive deep hurts easily. I still don't see that arguement. If I leave it, it's because it gives me peace of mind to leave it, but I haven't forgiven.

11:11 pm

Pinikula

BR...well, put...I think that's the short (clearer) version of what I was trying to say.

11:11 pm

o-o

forgiveness is a process .. much like grieving is a process

11:11 pm

Pinikula

agreed, BR

11:12 pm

Jacula

'Forgive', to me, means 'It's okay. I understand why you did what you did.'

11:13 pm

Pinikula

working on that clue, jac...thx

11:13 pm

o-o

those who are able to truly put the hurt behind them at some point try to put themselves in the shoes of the antagonist ... and may even eventually find some empathy

11:14 pm

Pinikula

now that place in life, br, is something I'm not sure I'll ever have (empathy)

11:15 pm

Pinikula

I mean I can empathize with some people and their respective situations, but not this one. And if I'm hearing Jac correctly, it sounds like she has a similar thought process...plz correct me if I'm wrong, jac.

11:16 pm

o-o

the choice, of course, is yours .. having dealt with anger and bitterness issues for most of my life ... I have done a lot of research ... whatever you do is better than harboring this wound for the rest of your life

11:16 pm

Pinikula

(if I'm totally out of line, I'll be quiet and concentrate on finishing the grid)

11:17 pm

Dorens

sorry, got called away.. jac, not there was no abuse like that in my case.. but in my job i've seen women who do that, and i understand the feeling totally, but we need to understand that these women are so damaged themselves...

11:17 pm

o-o

so many think forgiveness means that what occurred was okay ... not at all .. it means choosing do what helps you

11:18 pm

Pinikula

I understand what you're saying, BR...at this point (in my own situation), I'm placing my focus on the positive relationship part, not on those who did the damage. Even that much is helping so far...

11:18 pm

o-o

forgiveness does not make a wrong a right

11:19 pm

Pinikula

BR...that's what I've learned, I just have to continue working on being able to put my arms around the "new definition"

11:19 pm

o-o

I have used this quote before: hating is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die

11:20 pm

Pinikula

interesting concept, BR...and actually makes sense (to me)

11:20 pm

Pinikula

May I jot it down and refer to it when needed?

11:21 pm

o-o

for sure, Pini .. please do

11:21 pm

Pinikula

Thx!

11:22 pm

o-o

it is in the public domain

11:23 pm

Pinikula

true...but, well, I suppose I wanted you (the quoter) know that it was worth keeping nearby for reference. ;-)

11:24 pm

Pinikula

Jac, you still there? I'm not getting that clue you gave...but still working on it. And I do hope that I've not offended you in anyway.

11:24 pm

PAV3

Someone else showed me a year ago...but I logged in and had no clue and no time to even try to figure it out. But last week when someone else mentioned it, I thought I'd see if I could perhaps figure it out. This time I found the helps - didn't know there were such things as lists of clues, and lists of words, etc. That certainly helps - I definitely can't do it on my own.
