1:08 am

1:08 am

Cathyar

bye bye all! :) zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......

1:08 am

Pinikula

me, too, jilli

1:08 am

flosey

g'night Cathy

1:08 am

Pinikula

I'm glad Lickety added his "expert" suggestions! :)

1:09 am

jillibus

did he? Oh good!

1:09 am

flosey

can't find the ca8 though

1:09 am

Pinikula

like the type one word = list; type more = chog

1:09 am

jillibus

drop the last letter of the 9, flosey

1:10 am

Pinikula

and colors, too, for when you try a word (green, yellow, red)

1:10 am

flosey

oh, thanks jilli

1:10 am

jillibus

that's what I hoped, pini

1:12 am

Pinikula

I think including Lickety's quirks into the new design would be awesome!

1:13 am

jillibus

I also hope there will be a link to morewords and a2z

1:13 am

flosey

need a cup of tea, brb

1:13 am

jillibus

and a place for his list, of course.

1:13 am

Pinikula

of course!

1:14 am

Pinikula

but hideable if desired

1:14 am

Pinikula

right?

1:14 am

jillibus

I don't quite understand the clues in the letters thing.

1:14 am

Pinikula

me either...I'm curious to see what kind of "clues" they'll be

1:14 am

jillibus

indeed, pini, hideable if desired.

1:15 am

Pinikula

(perhaps openable after the first hour)

1:15 am

Pinikula

just a thought

1:16 am

jillibus

oh no -- I use it as soon as it appears

1:16 am

Pinikula

oh, sorry, didn't realize...

1:16 am

jillibus

we all have our own preferences about the list and I don't think anyone should be deprived.

1:17 am

Pinikula

good point

1:17 am

Pinikula

thus "just a thought"

1:17 am

jillibus

well, actually, I wait until after nbt.

1:18 am

Pinikula

I try to wait for nbt, 1/2-way, and nbs

1:18 am

Pinikula

but time allowances can change those goals...

1:18 am

jillibus

chacun Ã son goÃ»t

1:19 am

Pinikula

huh?

1:19 am

Pinikula

"to each his own"?

1:20 am

jillibus

absolutely -- and the quality of the grid -- if it's full of unwords I'm not going to bash my head against an incomprehensible wall and waste time.

1:20 am

Pinikula

so true!

1:20 am

jillibus

yes, "each to his own taste", more literally.

1:21 am

Pinikula

wow, took a wild guess and got oh so close! :)

1:21 am

jillibus

wtg pini, lol!

1:22 am

Pinikula

I may become a linguist after all!! ROFL!

1:22 am

Pinikula

So, Aberdeen, jilli...what clan are ya from? I'm from the Murray Clan.

1:22 am

rururocks

more likely a linguini first

1:22 am

Pinikula

no doubt, ru! * giggle *

1:23 am

jillibus

Murray of Atholl here, cousin! Murray is my maiden name.

1:23 am

rururocks

Clans are good with Linguini pini

1:23 am

Pinikula

OMG! Jilli...we may just be cousins! :)

1:23 am

Pinikula

ru, you silly boy!

1:24 am

rururocks

LOLOL

1:24 am

jillibus

go away, ruru, lol!

1:24 am

jillibus

are you Atholl too, or Tullibardane?

1:24 am

Pinikula

<-- also of Murray of Atholl

1:24 am

Pinikula

(if my genealogy is correctly done)

1:24 am

jillibus

Holy mackerel, pini!

1:25 am

Pinikula

this is gettin' pretty scarey, jilli!!! :)

1:25 am

jillibus

Firth Fortune and Fill the Fetters

1:25 am

Pinikula

(in a good way, of course)

1:25 am

Christine

Good grief - cousins, at least. Anyone out there named Rita??

1:26 am

Pinikula

Hi Christine...no Rita's in my tree

1:26 am

Pinikula

Jilli, you're going to make me go try and get my other laptop (strictly for genealogy) working so I can look!!!

1:26 am

rururocks

a long line of meter maids ..

1:27 am

Pinikula

Jilli, do you know if you have kin in the Seattle area?

1:27 am

Pinikula

(in the least, I'll bring it to our Aug meet up)

1:27 am

Pinikula

(if you're interested, of course)

1:28 am

jillibus

Only you, pini. No close Murrays this side of the Atlantic, although another Atholl came in to the library one summer day -- a visitor from elsewhere I'd never met and never saw again.

1:29 am

Pinikula

hmmm...I have Murray cousins in Seattle area...

1:29 am

Christine

Jillibus - I think that's Furth, Fortune ...

1:29 am

jillibus

My Aberdonian grandparents went to China as missionaries and ended up In Bristol, England.

1:29 am

Christine

Jillibus - I think that's Furth, Fortune ...

1:30 am

rururocks

I am trying to make my firth fortune

1:30 am

jillibus

coudl be, Christin -- I'll check my badge...

1:30 am

Pinikula

gotcha, I'll see what I can find; we MUST be related in some fashion...right?

1:30 am

Christine

Sorry, bloomin' gremlins are in my laptop, yet again.

1:31 am

Christine

My former husband had Murrays in the background, and I vaguely remember seeing the motto, at his parent's house.

1:31 am

jillibus

Yes, Christine -- "Furth Fortune..." Are you a Murray too?

1:31 am

Pinikula

If my memory serves me, I believe it was James Murray m. Susannah Davidson Middleton (both born in Aberdeen)

1:32 am

Christine

Nah, I was a Rita, now I'm a Ramsey.

1:32 am

Pinikula

but will have to look to confirm

1:33 am

jillibus

my grands were David Simpson Murray and Emma Milne. We think the Simpson was a later addition -- a tribute to a benefactor.

1:33 am

Pinikula

can't wait to "investigate"

1:34 am

jillibus

David S Murray was born in 10 Canal Street and a friend took a picture of it a few years ago -- a stone row house.

1:35 am

jillibus

I'd wear my kilt to the get-together if it weren't in August!

1:35 am

Pinikula

If I ever get to go overseas again, my next goal is the British Isles (specifically Scotland)

1:36 am

jillibus

I've never been to Scotland

1:36 am

Pinikula

Is your tartan green with red, gold and white?

1:36 am

Pinikula

I haven't either, but want to go really bad!

1:36 am

jillibus

no -- like Black Watch with a red line.

1:37 am

Pinikula

black watch?

1:37 am

jillibus

although the antique one is a lighter blue.

1:37 am

rururocks

anyone have the te 7/40?

1:37 am

jillibus

the Black Watch is famous British (and Canadian regiment)

1:38 am

jillibus

You could do some goggling, pini

1:38 am

flosey

yes, ru, sometimes I feel a little te7 in the head

1:38 am

jillibus

haven't got to the Ts yet, ruru

1:38 am

Pinikula

ahhhh, I need to learn more...will check our family plaid to see exactly what it is

1:39 am

jillibus

1:39 am

Pinikula

1:48 am

Pinikula

Ours is definitely the green

2:28 am

2:46 am

flosey

2:46 am

jillibus

2:48 am

flosey

no, switching hours would be difficult

2:48 am

flosey

I can't find the last ra5, do you have it?

2:49 am

jillibus

no, sorry

2:49 am

flosey

and why can't one reditch?

2:57 am

jillibus

2:57 am

flosey

was trying to think of another word for find!

2:58 am

jillibus

ah, the Englsih language!

2:59 am

flosey

yes, can be confusing at times - and you get one idea in your head and don't think of the other possibilities

2:59 am

jillibus

too right, mate!

2:59 am

flosey

skipping over the re words!

3:00 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxxx, nice to see a meaty sized grid again.

3:09 am

PMS

g

3:10 am

lynxxx

Yes, but it seems a bit easy - or maybe I am not into it enough yet

3:10 am

Haz1558

Don't knock it, lynxxx! Sooner or later we'll run out of ideas.

3:11 am

lynxxx

has there been any more news from DrG?

3:12 am

Haz1558

Not as far as I know, although I haven't checked twitter this morning.

3:12 am

Haz1558

I keep logging in, wondering when the new layout will appear, it's nearly as exciting as working out what the next total will be.

3:14 am

Haz1558

The last communication from twitter is that he's trying to incorporate as many 'Lickety' features as possible.

3:14 am

redturtlehead

Oh my. I started the grid without looking at the total. misread Haz's statement of meaty as Measly....well....I'll be here a long time.

3:14 am

lynxxx

morning Red

3:14 am

FMitch

Morning Haz and red and evening lynxxx

3:15 am

lynxxx

morning FM

3:15 am

Haz1558

Good morning red, FM. Time to rub the sleep from those eyes, red. MEATY.

3:15 am

redturtlehead

It is 4: 15 am my time! meaty though is different from measly.

3:16 am

Haz1558

How are you today, FM? Still warm by you?

3:16 am

lynxxx

He is 'God' but I can't see how he is going to do it aside from a straight copy of Lickety's layout in Expert - which I don't think he would do.

3:17 am

FMitch

HAve been productive already and its only gone 9am, so shall have a look at the grid whilst having 2nd mug of tea.
Garden wartered and deadheaded, washing done, recycling done and shopping done.

3:17 am

lynxxx

what time do you start work Red?

3:17 am

Haz1558

I have no idea how any of this computer stuff is possible, lynxxx, it baffles me completely, so I just stand back and wait to see what is produced.

3:17 am

redturtlehead

No work today, up to run in the cooler moments of the day. and not wanting to go at all...

3:17 am

FMitch

Low 20's Haz, so much more condusive to activity.

3:17 am

Haz1558

You're a busy bee, FM!

3:18 am

Haz1558

Hello, Andree.

3:20 am

lynxxx

I am missing the long summer days. We are only having 9.5 hours of sunlight at the moment

3:20 am

lynxxx

Hi Andree!

3:21 am

Andree

i always miss summer, fortunatly we have very short winters

3:22 am

FMitch

It does take some getting used to when the days shorten.

3:22 am

Haz1558

I know what you mean, lynxxx, it's the part of winter that I find hard. Dark by 4.30 pm and only getting light around 9.00 am. People at work only see daylight at the weekend. It feels like hibernating sometimes.

3:24 am

FMitch

<----- refuses to think about Winter!

3:25 am

Haz1558

<------------ putting it firmly to the back of my mind.

Bye, FM, see you later.

3:34 am

herinfernallady

Bye FM

3:34 am

lynxxx

My fav. is the te7 in the head

3:38 am

Haz1558

So a crazed peasant would be a te7 ce5?

3:39 am

lynxxx

Yep!

3:40 am

Haz1558

Understood!

3:41 am

herinfernallady

hello :) Long time no see folks :)

3:45 am

Haz1558

Hello, Liz - long time indeed! Nice to see you!

3:45 am

Andree

hi liz

3:46 am

lynxxx

hi Liz!

3:46 am

Lizsark

Just been catching up with all Dr Gods proposed changes on the Babble Community on facebook. Its all good :)

3:46 am

Haz1558

How's your shop doing? And the children, and Oscar and your husband?

3:47 am

Lizsark

LOL Haz :)

3:47 am

Lizsark

Children fine, Oscar recovering from cruciate ligament op, husband pain in the proverbial (nothing new there then) and shop demised :(

3:47 am

Haz1558

Oh, more changes announced? What's the latest, in case I've missed out? (I realise my order of questions is all wrong. It should be reversed, shouldn't it?)

3:48 am

Haz1558

Shop demised? Poor shop, what happened?

3:49 am

Andree

hope you gave it a decent burial

3:49 am

Lizsark

Latest is preview pics of the new site provoking much discussion over the rather funky bright migraine inducing colouring, but clickable letters as an option and a rotational board!

3:49 am

Andree

changes , what changes, i have been away too long

3:50 am

marigold

e

3:50 am

Haz1558

A rotational board? That means people won't be able to ask for particular letters (northeast n).

3:50 am

Lizsark

Get yourself on facebook Andree :) Dr God has a site on there where hes showing us all his brand new shiny all singing all dancing Babble site

3:50 am

Lizsark

Rotational is optional Haz :)

3:50 am

Haz1558

Or else go to www.twitter.com/BabbleOverlord and you'll see what he's up to.

3:50 am

lynxxx

BBS

3:51 am

Haz1558

I don't think I relish the thought of rotational. I'm a steady type of person.

3:51 am

Haz1558

See you shortly, lynxxx.

3:52 am

Lizsark

Ooo I do :) Although normally I am wary of changing something that works so well already but I think from checking out the videos that are on the fb site that it will be all for the better :)

3:52 am

Andree

liz, no way i am ever getting myself on facebook

3:52 am

Andree

bye lyn

3:53 am

Haz1558

People can be very resistant to change - there was outcry a few years ago when he changed things, but it soon settled down and now I can hardly remember what the old site looked like.

3:53 am

Lizsark

Oh. Sorry. Forgot to answer your other question - Shop closed due to lack of manpower as I have been in and out of hospital this year. On the mend now though and raring to race Atalante around Nepal!

3:53 am

Lizsark

Andree you are probably very sensible :)

3:54 am

Andree

no liz , i am just getting old

3:54 am

Haz1558

Glad you're recovered, Liz. Ata's leg is obviously going to have to get completely better if she's got to race around Nepal.

3:54 am

Lizsark

I know bless her, poor Ata.

3:55 am

Lizsark

If you can bear with me a tic, I will put one of Dr Gods teaser photos of the new look site on as my profile pic so you can all have a look

3:55 am

Haz1558

Was Dr-G joining in the discussion on FB or is he just observing for the moment? Colour is hard - you'll not please everyone.

3:56 am

Lizsark

Ok tis done if you refresh

3:56 am

Andree

another sign of age, whats wrong with the site as it is?

3:56 am

Haz1558

Thanks, Liz.

3:57 am

Lizsark

Yes Haz Dr God is very much joining in the conversation :) (Although he is known as Babble Overlord on there lol)

3:57 am

Haz1558

I think Dr-G wants to make it a bit fresher, needs to attract new people. There are to be some new features, although we're not quite sure exactly what they are. Death rays for trolls have been suggested.

3:58 am

Lizsark

One new feature which I welcome greatly is that you should no longer be able to enter grid words in the chog by accident

3:59 am

Haz1558

That would be good.

3:59 am

Lizsark

Definitely :)

4:00 am

Andree

that looks more complicated , but bring it on

4:00 am

Andree

dath rays , cool

4:01 am

Andree

death too

4:01 am

herinfernallady

Hello

4:01 am

Andree

news time, later

4:01 am

Lizsark

bye :)

4:02 am

Haz1558

Bye, Andree.

4:02 am

herinfernallady

I like the idea of what they do in Sims 3 if you get caught hacking into a computer which is a signal gets sent and the computer gets lightly fried

4:02 am

herinfernallady

Bye Andree Hi Liz

4:02 am

Lizsark

Haz, I have to go but was lovely to see you all again :) Back more often now I'm on the mend touch wood

4:02 am

Haz1558

Hope so, Liz - bye for now.

4:04 am

herinfernallady

Take care Liz

rururocks

didn't think too much of rafa's interview afterwards une

9:23 am

harpjane

thanks

9:24 am

Uneaixoise

his English is still pretty limited :-)

9:24 am

Uneaixoise

he must have said "more than a dream" 10 times LOL

9:24 am

rururocks

he needs a handler to tell him how to say things now that he is going to be #1

9:24 am

Uneaixoise

yeah, i'm surprised his English hasn't improved more

9:24 am

rururocks

I watched the match later .. he took Berdych apart

9:25 am

Uneaixoise

Federer took some intense language classes a few years ago

9:25 am

rururocks

he has a lot of strategy in his playing.. it is masterful to watch

9:25 am

Uneaixoise

yep, Berdych fizzled but i feel sure he'll be back next year

9:25 am

Uneaixoise

i agree

9:25 am

rururocks

Federer needs lessons in personality disorders

9:26 am

Pinikula

got the ch's!

9:26 am

Uneaixoise

yep, the veneer is slipping

9:26 am

Uneaixoise

yay, pini!!

9:26 am

rururocks

I bet hitting back and forth with rafa wore him out..

9:26 am

harpjane

nbt

9:26 am

rururocks

he also played some heavy duty players leading up to rafa

9:26 am

Uneaixoise

go, harp!

9:26 am

Pinikula

well done, harp!

9:26 am

m9f9l

wtg harp!

9:27 am

Haz1558

Good morning/afternoon all. Is it fair to disregard years of pretty impeccable behaviour on Federer's part because of an interview when he was bound to be bitterly disappointed. I think the media can be vultures.

9:27 am

Pinikula

I might have to start watching this Rafa guy (from Une's icon, he's gorgeous!)

9:27 am

Uneaixoise

it's amazing to me just to see the giants taking over tennis -- can't believe how tall these guys are AND coordinated!

9:27 am

Pinikula

hiya haz

9:27 am

rururocks

yes.. like soderberg

9:27 am

Haz1558

Hello!

9:28 am

Uneaixoise

yep, haz, same point made by several in tennis.com blog

9:28 am

Uneaixoise

wonder if Del Potro will make a comeback . . .

9:28 am

Haz1558

I think the whole post-match interview is pretty difficult. Let's not forget how gracious he was in defeat after the classic final two years ago against Nadal.

9:29 am

rururocks

well.. what about him threatenng that judge...oh..wait..that was Serena

9:29 am

Uneaixoise

:-D

9:29 am

Uneaixoise

haz haz haz, no one was slamming Roger

9:30 am

Haz1558

(Shining up my Roger Federer Appreciation Society badge)

9:30 am

rururocks

he was gracious that day ..true haz. I retract my statement...rafa was more gracious by saying ROger is still # 1

9:30 am

Pinikula

173/164 = list time!

9:30 am

Uneaixoise

Rafa is always incredibly complimentary of his opponents

9:30 am

Haz1558

I have lots of time for Nadal as well, I think he's a brilliant tennis player and by the end of that Wimbledon match, I was happy for either of them to win.

9:31 am

rururocks

that was particularly moving what he said that day after the greatest tennis match of all time

9:32 am

rururocks

Federer when he is on .. is simply the best player in history

9:32 am

Haz1558

Roger is still #1 in terms of Grand Slams, but who knows what may happen in future? It's amazing to see two such amazing players around at the same time.

9:32 am

Pinikula

brb

9:32 am

Haz1558

Amazed that I can't find any other adjective than amazing.

9:32 am

rururocks

they both are though.. really very talented player

9:32 am

rururocks

players

9:33 am

Haz1558

And you don't get the feeling, as you always did with McEnroe, that either of them is going to attack the crowd.

9:34 am

kje

but rafa is much cuter

9:34 am

Uneaixoise

hey, kje!

9:35 am

Haz1558

Hello, kje.

9:45 am

Uneaixoise

:-D

10:08 am

rururocks

I was thinking that Roger might have been upset he has been beat by a bunch of nobody's lately

10:09 am

Haz1558

Has he ever called them 'nobody'?

10:10 am

rururocks

under his breath at the baseline...

10:10 am

Haz1558

He obviously still has a huge desire to win - is that a fault?

10:11 am

rururocks

he shouldn't play injured like he has been

10:12 am

Haz1558

But half of them are playing through injuries at any time, aren't they?

10:13 am

rururocks

no.. not really

10:13 am

rururocks

he must have to play the grand slams..Nadal stayed out with his knee for a long time

10:14 am

kje

10:18 am

Aloyisius

wonderful.. weddings are such a happy occasion

10:19 am

Haz1558

It was fun. Will I put up a picture of the bride and groom?

10:19 am

Haz1558

10:19 am

m9f9l

10:19 am

Aloyisius

10:20 am

Okay, I'll rephrase that for m9's benefit. Would you like me to put up a temporary picture of the wedding?

6:18 pm

Interesting, Crossy...although I'll substitute a handsome man for that pretty woman you mentioned ;)

6:18 pm

...and then 8-10 and so on!

6:18 pm

I am only childish when I am.

6:19 pm

Pinikula

6:23 pm

You're a whole lot closer than I am!

6:23 pm

Nancy Boy

But Pini, my teenage years have been nothing but bad news ;) I just wanna leave them behind!

6:24 pm

Pinikula

well, take the mistake as a compliment not a dig at your past ;)

6:25 pm

Pinikula

I was mistaken for my gson's mom last Thursday...

6:25 pm

java2

NB, you will, soon enough..there's a lot to be learned from those years. Like how to treat others in similar circumstances, for instance

6:25 pm

Pinikula

...when I explained I wasn't they complimented me on how young I looked and asked if my daughter was 12!

6:25 pm

Nancy Boy

lol! I guess I'll have to be older before it becomes a compliment. A good friend of mine always tells me that - he's just turned 51, could be in his thirties though!

6:26 pm

Nancy Boy

but then he's young at heart, too. Perhaps that's the secret ;)

6:27 pm

java2

That's certainly one of the secrets

6:27 pm

Nancy Boy

Must have been nice, Pini! Maybe you are that blonde Crossy is dreaming of ;)

6:27 pm

6:36 pm

Nancy Boy

Chocolate and liquor.

6:38 pm

Pinikula

I pass on the liquor...but NEVER on the chocolate!

6:38 pm

Good Enough

6:41 pm

Nancy Boy

A minor emergency ;)

6:41 pm

Good Enough

oh well. be cute (yourself) and i'm sure he'll ask again

6:42 pm

Good Enough

or you ask him again

6:43 pm

Nancy Boy

I dunno Good - he wanted to know why I was cancelling, which was fair enough, but I kind of had to tell him the whole back story for it to make sense. Might have been a bit much...

6:44 pm

Nancy Boy

9:42 pm

stidmama

really Nancy Boy? I would have thought you a natural. you seem pretty confident to me. But you're right, it takes a particular love for that kind of excitement to do it often.

9:43 pm

9:55 pm

9:56 pm

Jacula

Hi all. I just got an e mail from an old workmate telling me our old boss had been in touch to say one of our colleagues and friends has died. She was about 93, if I've worked it out correctly from her age of 53(my age now) that she was in the 70s. She had a shop roof fall on her head in the lunch hour one day when she was off buying cakes in there for us. She was a kind soul and will be much missed. Unfortunately, my friend told me the time of the funeral but not the date.

9:58 pm

Jacula

However, I have both my old workmate and my old bosses' 'phone numbers, so I should be able to find out.

9:58 pm

harpjane

wow, that's too bad

9:58 pm

DRBERNABO

Sorry to hear that, Jacula

9:58 pm

DR1965

oh JAc- Im sorry

9:58 pm

jmbdobie2

quitting with 64 left - a good days work but time for bed

9:58 pm

harpjane

she was age 93 and she was at work?

9:58 pm

Sadistyx

that bites

9:58 pm

Jacula

We've talked for so long in letters on on the 'phone, about having a works reunion. Time to do it NOW, I think.

9:58 pm

harpjane

or did i miss something?

9:59 pm

hootowl

firebirds! Finally!!!

9:59 pm

Sadistyx

we have a guy that saw the dinosaurs die and he still works

9:59 pm

Jacula

Harp - No! She was 53 and at work. I'm going back 30 years.

10:00 pm

harpjane

ah, i thought i had missed something

10:01 pm

Jacula

No, longer than that.

10:01 pm

Nancy Boy

Wow, Sadistyx, you're still around!

10:01 pm

Jillyjill

Looking at my financial status, I will be working when I'm 93 :(

10:01 pm

Nancy Boy

That is sad news, Jac - sorry to hear it :(

10:01 pm

Nancy Boy

Ditto, Jilly ;)

10:02 pm

Jacula

I don't know, to be honest. But Audrey was either in her 80s or 90s. She survived the roof and shop falling on her head.

10:02 pm

Sadistyx

i'm not that old, we have a guy named Sully, he is the oldest ironworker in the world, or at least he looks the part

10:02 pm

Jacula

I hope I've not been informed too late to go to her funeral. I'd like to be there.

10:05 pm

Jillyjill

sorry Jac, I know what you mean about always planing to get together' if you don't plan it, it'll be at a funeral.

10:05 pm

Jacula

I think Audrey may achieve in death what she tried to achieve in life lately - a reunion of the workers.

10:06 pm

Jacula

Jillyjill - too right! And, when you meet wit friend and family at funerals, you all say you'll meet up for a party or something soon, but it never happens... and then you meet at the next funeral.

10:07 pm

Jacula

Why are we all so dumb and inactive?

10:07 pm

harpjane

How often have any of us gone to a funeral, wishing we had taken more time to spend with the person while they were living? What a sad reminder

10:07 pm

Jillyjill

we don't seem to learn do we?

10:08 pm

Jacula

No, we don't.

10:09 pm

Jillyjill

Wonder if all this internet stuff, like Babble will do, make it better or worse?

10:09 pm

Jacula

So, I guess that's a lesson to us all then. Love the ones you're with!

10:10 pm

harpjane

i think it helps, it's sure is a lot easier to organize a high school reunion with the Internet!

10:10 pm

Jacula

Welll. Jilly jill. I'm not too good a replying to e-mails, though I chat on Facebook etc. I do still do snail mail though, which is usually answred, even by older relatives, by e mail now.

10:11 pm

Jacula

So, who knows?

10:11 pm

Jillyjill

ahh, is that what you've been up to Hjane?

10:12 pm

Jacula

Well, the itnernet got me and my other half together, not on a dating site, and it also got most of our family chatting. It also enabled an old school reunion. The internet is fantastic, if you are careful about how you use it.

hi everyone

10:13 pm

Hi choco.

Minveryork

Hello yogo1! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

10:15 pm

Minveryork

Hello choco! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

10:15 pm

Minveryork

I aro4/4 this morning with the intention of finishing. But th 4/5 I had a very busy day. Some have already ac4/6 this grid, but not me. After I di 4/5ed with my hubby I started babbling lat. I gave up at 239 words. When babbling becomes a ch5/14,I just give up.I am ignoring my ch6/24 by doing a story to le4/5 a hand In case you do not know, I'm a te7/36. I te5/14 ESL. I ch5/14 to become a teacher at a very young age.I en5/10ed in college with the intention of becoming a te 7/36. I was a ne 4/5 in college, however, all of my hard work paid off. I love my job.I love having the ro 4/4 of a te 7/36. I think it's ra4/4 for people to love their jobs. There are advantages and disadvantages to being a te 7/36. Here some of the disadvantages. Sometimes my students give me a big headac4/,but I love ea 4/6 of them anyway.I'm also an 4/4 and must have things done a certain way. Also,you don't make much di 6/21 as a te7/36. It is so hard to get di6/21 done,because I do not have any access to a copying machine. Here are some of the advantages. I get to de4/6rate my room the way I want.I also get to play games with the kids.My kids love to play Math games using di 4/6. Sometimes I use the di4/6 to te5/14 or 7/32 numners. I don't have to go on a di4/5 because I get enough exercise going up&down the stairs 100 times a day.My students like to dr4/9.It's fun to see some of their pictures and how they perceive things Some of my students have dr 5/20 the most amazing pictures. I really like the people I work with. ot 5/12 te 5/14s are so ni 4/4! Except for the Principal, she is a th5/12 in my side.I wish I could wave a magic wa 4/9 and make her disappear. She acts more like a wa 6/33 than a Principal. The te 7/36s are ni 5/12 than the Principal. They wa6/33 about the Principal when I first started. Some students call her the wicked wi 5/22 of the west. Oh go4/7! Look at the time!I have to go to bed.Goodni4/4 to all babblers!I didn't ed4/5 story. My mind is sh 4/5. There may be some errors.

10:15 pm

Jacula

I'm going to wander off now. Happy Bablbling all.x
