Good morning everyone :) having a sneaky look at the grid whilst at work lol

4:40 am

lynxxx

Nice flag Cool...are you sure you entered country on the right hand side and checked update profile?

4:40 am

cool.girl

dont no ive done my profile but no flag

4:41 am

cool.girl

yeah it said id updated and i put united kingdom will try again

4:42 am

lynxxx

Is there a flag for the United Kingdom? maybe you need to put England

4:44 am

lynxxx

forget that - there should be a UK flag showing

4:45 am

Glantarell

sometimes you need to close babble after you've updated - or refresh two or thee times - before it shows on your profile

4:45 am

Glantarell

good moring everybody

4:46 am

lynxxx

hi Glant. You are right, I need to do it about 5 times, which is why I rarely change icons

4:46 am

cool.girl

ive put england

4:50 am

jwr

I think there's a GB flag and an England flag

4:50 am

cool.girl

ile just keep updating

4:51 am

Glantarell

there are scottish, irish, welsh & english plus the union flag

4:51 am

jwr

the welsh looks like a christmas present

4:52 am

cool.girl

i filled it in and changed it to england then pressed update still nothing

4:52 am

Glantarell

the welsh is our dragon on our green grass

4:53 am

jwr

lovely. I take it the dragon is not fire-breathing?

4:54 am

jwr

cool, perhaps you have to restart the computer? Or is that too much?

4:54 am

Glantarell

no, it is slumbering under our mountain - there are many old folk tales about white an red dragons fighting - the red wins but the king - vortigern - sends him back to sleep under the mountain - and there endeth the first welsh folk tale lesson ;-)

4:55 am

jwr

ty - it would make a grand bedtime story I bet

4:55 am

Glantarell

bit scary for bedtime!!

4:56 am

jwr

only grownups think children's stories are TOO scary

4:56 am

Glantarell

ah, true...

4:56 am

jwr

of course, I haven't heard the full version

4:57 am

Glantarell

most children's stories have lements of horror in them - early walt disney films, stories of the brothers grimm

4:57 am

Glantarell

i think you have to be a bit scared to better appreciate the happy ending!

4:58 am

jwr

not a Disney fan, I'm afraid, but yes I think it's the security of knowing the endng ... like an Agatha Christie.

4:59 am

jwr

grownups like happy endings too (lol) especially these days

5:00 am

cool.girl

i shut it down

5:00 am

Glantarell

true... i'm still waiting for mine :-)

5:00 am

jwr

Sorry, cool -- it was a thought!

5:00 am

Glantarell

you still have no flag cool.girl

5:01 am

lynxxx

no luck with the house sale Glant?

5:01 am

Glantarell

no, we have had 4 viewings and it turns out they have all been the same family one way or another!

5:01 am

Glantarell

they are very interested but have just put their own house on the market - if it sells, they will buy ours

5:01 am

lynxxx

You are with an agent?

5:02 am

lynxxx

That is good news! though maybe take some time

5:02 am

Glantarell

the lady came on her own, with partner, and with partner, children and partnmer's parents - who turned out to be the couple that came around a few weeks ago and didn;t seem too interested

5:02 am

jwr

I'm off home in the middle of the night. keep turning the pages glantarell, you'll come to the happy ending yet. Bye all

5:02 am

Glantarell

yes we are with an agent but i'm not sure how proactive they are being

5:03 am

lynxxx

5:41 am

Norma

mrp you are really in the wars at the moment ... I think you need some TLC

5:41 am

mrpresident

as you may or may not know... my left side hand and foot is broken... and I had the most amazing dream!!

5:41 am

dizgrannie

mrp...g/son is in the process of being tested for aspergers...I thought that all along....any way you can email me any info on aspergers puleese

5:42 am

mrpresident

absolutely diz!!

5:42 am

mrpresident

I know heaps now. and have become a better person for it

5:43 am

dizgrannie

tell us your dream!!!

5:46 am

mrpresident

I dreamt that there were three porcelain dishes, all stacked together, falling to the left of me... the dishes went from small, medium to large, and the large dishes where all from my collection of my serving dishes. the other porcelain I didn't recognise, but they always fell to my left in lots of three

5:47 am

mrpresident

I was able to put out my left hand or foot to try and stop them smashing to the floor, so they would hit the floor, but not full force.... my hand or foot (left, which are broken) would stop the full impact

5:48 am

mrpresident

each time i tried to rescue my serving dishes, the small and medium ones (that I have no connection to) would be fine, but the large dishes would break.... just one piece would break off... and these are very precious serving dishes to me.... wedding presents etc.

5:49 am

mrpresident

only one piece would break off, and I kept thinking "I can repair that and glue it back together". But the dishes kept on falling and to my left... to my hand and foot that are broken.

5:51 am

mrpresident

any ideas of how to interpret this dream??

5:52 am

suefrad625

your greek and you secretely like breaking dishes

5:53 am

mrpresident

i am not greek! lol!

5:53 am

ivesy3

i think it means you are feeling that you are losing a little piece of your life with all that is going on and your mind is telling you that you can fix it, piece by piece .. hows that?

5:53 am

suefrad625

you hate washing dishes because of your hand

5:53 am

suefrad625

I like ivesy

5:54 am

ivesy3

ty lol

5:54 am

mrpresident

but I love smashing glass when I get the opportunity!! so cathartic.

5:54 am

suefrad625

or that the pieces that broke, can be made into something else. You are going through a lot, and changing.

5:54 am

ivesy3

oh yes, me too!! such a feeling of power

5:55 am

mrpresident

ivesy... i like that... but the meaning behind the preciousness of my pieces worries me

5:55 am

JenMO16

did the site shut down last night???

5:55 am

suefrad625

I have tried lo4 and fl4 for a one room apt, what do you call a one room apt for the be6 clue?

5:55 am

mrpresident

sure did jen... 3 hours

5:56 am

Norma

What you do on a chair sue

5:56 am

ivesy3

as u may or may not know , my son is a recovering addict.. i always have dreams that i cant find him.. i take it that it means i feel like i may lose him again

5:56 am

JenMO16

wow, i was wondering what happened, i was almost 3/4's of a way done!!

5:56 am

suefrad625

mrp, you know that what yu considered presious 5 yrs ago, doesnt mean anything now. your priorities are changing. screw the dishes and live!!

5:56 am

ivesy3

we always worry we are losing something precious

5:57 am

suefrad625

i sit

5:57 am

mrpresident

I remember once throwing a glass at my husband, and it bounced off him and broke... I felt awful!! Now, if I do throw a glass (very rare) , I throw it in the opposite direction of where he is standing and it makes me feel powerful without hurting my darling.

5:58 am

Norma

add it to the rear of bed lol

5:58 am

suefrad625

ty

5:58 am

ivesy3

ty norma

5:58 am

suefrad625

cute word

5:59 am

Norma

yvw

5:59 am

ivesy3

unfortunately, when im mad i clean... lately i have a very clean place lol

5:59 am

suefrad625

I have more for you to clean

5:59 am

suefrad625

i can really piss you off

5:59 am

mrpresident

it just makes an 'impact statement'... sometimes it needs to be done when they don't want to listen or take care anymore

6:00 am

ivesy3

lol@sue

6:00 am

suefrad625

phantom waffle

6:00 am

suefrad625

now I am hungry and I have to get Wes up

6:00 am

mrpresident

ivesy, me too! i had laundry to do... went in there, threw everything out of the laundry and scrubbed the laundry down.... then brought everything back in and felt really good doing the wasing!!

6:01 am

ivesy3

exactly... too bad i dont excercise when im mad

6:02 am

mrpresident

then! to top it all off, the cat (15 years old) came down to our room and was meowing at 3am... Lickety ignored her instead of putting her out.
She peed in about 3 places upstairs in my daughters room and play room... I feel like 'adjusting' lickety right now!!

6:02 am

suefrad625

mrp. I think your dream just means you are having a shift in what you really need to be caring about and dishes are not one of them. they can be replaced or not in your life, who really cares about dishes with what you have going on? you are incredable the way you care for your family and the battle you are personally facing. Screw the friggin dishes.

6:03 am

ivesy3

mrp.. suggest use paper plates from now on

6:03 am

mrpresident

lol ivesy!!

6:04 am

mrpresident

yes sue... but these dishes are so precious to my memories... I hope I am not losing my memory with this interpretation

6:05 am

suefrad625

mrp. here in the states, you can find a persons ashes at a yard sale! with all the dissasters happening around the world, do you really care about the dishes as long as you get to love on your family.

6:06 am

suefrad625

memories are ours to keep, dishes are clutter.

6:06 am

mrpresident

am I going senile? dementia? alzhemer's? .... heck it worries me... my mother went mad. I found out some stuff about her last week and almost lost my mind!! She is sick and I didn't realise how sick she was... mentally

6:07 am

suefrad625

my mother has always been a fruit cake, but there are great drugs now.

6:07 am

mrpresident

I obviously have too much clutter in my life that I hold dear to me....

6:09 am

suefrad625

mrp. if you are going mad, then i want to join you. you are the strongest woman I have had the honor of meeting (even in person). you are amazing how you just whip off the major problems, like they are about messing up a shopping list. No dear, not mad or crazy, just absolutly wonderful. Now i do have to poof. bbl

6:11 am

dizgrannie

mrp, your clutter is you beloved family...I was once told I had clutter and it twas my dtr and her kiddos....NEVER are they clutter, but thats what the clairvoyant said

6:13 am

suefrad625

need help. wesley woke with water in the ear, any advice?

6:14 am

mrpresident

you girls are making me cry!! in a good way

6:15 am

Trifioso

alcohol on a cotton ball, place it gently in the ear, and then have him lie down on the other si4, so that the alcohol drips down and gets right to the water

6:15 am

Trifioso

and good morning!

6:16 am

mrpresident

morning trif!

6:16 am

mrpresident

aqua ear is a good 'medication' at the chemist.... breaks the water down to bubbles and then it comes out

6:17 am

Trifioso

mrp, I am so sorry for the rough go you are having. You are such a wonderful, special spirit, and you deserve so much goodness in your life

6:17 am

mrpresident

trif has the same idea... alcohol breaks down the water.... just watch for 'swaying child' syndrome! LOL

6:17 am

Maryte

good morning everyone!

6:18 am

Trifioso

Crossword puzzles became such a hit in the mid-20s that womenâ€™s fashion adopted the motif, printing grids on clothes, shoes, and jewelry.

7:49 am

bichon

And, it's still about 3 weeks til the solstice

7:49 am

Mom

that is a lot of daylight

7:50 am

Think about winter :-(

7:50 am

Mom

that would be rough, Bichon

7:51 am

bichon

It's not at all humid here. My daughter said it's been hot and humid in CT

7:51 am

Mom

sure you could Car. when you sit down you can work the puzzle on your skirt and when you are in line at the market you can work the puzzle on your arms

7:51 am

Mom

and the person behind you can work the part that is on your back

7:52 am

car.eeyore

Hmmm...the person behind me.....

7:52 am

Mom

of course, you know how long the lines are at the market sometimes

7:52 am

8:02 am

car.eeyore

BYe mom!

8:03 am

Glantarell

i am half imperial (weights, liquids) and half metric (temperatures)

8:03 am

Glantarell

8:04 am

crosshair

all my fuel measurements are in litres as that is how i order it for the station

8:04 am

Mom

bye Car.

8:04 am

Glantarell

i buy it in litres too but still imagine gallons

8:05 am

crosshair

and what makes it a tad rough is our gallon was larger(4.11) lit and the amreican is 3.78 lit

8:05 am

crosshair

your and the U.K gallon match

8:05 am

crosshair

ours

8:05 am

Glantarell

how many pints in the candian gallon?

8:05 am

bichon

crossy, what is the current US$/Canadian$?

8:06 am

Glantarell

i thought it was 4.54 litres to the gallon

8:06 am

crosshair

we are 2 cents on the U.S greenback

8:06 am

crosshair

4.11 glant

8:06 am

crosshair

our gallon had 4 more oz

8:07 am

crosshair

and as to U.S pints in a canadian gallon...lol you got me..will have to google it

8:08 am

crosshair

you start mixing u.s and canadian imperial measure and it all comes apart at the seams

8:08 am

Glantarell

our gallon is definitely 4.546litres

8:08 am

bichon

Gasoline in the Baltic states is 7-8 dollars per US gallon

8:08 am

crosshair

ouch

8:08 am

car.eeyore

I have hit a wall...will take a break for a bit. Have a great day everyone!

8:09 am

If the US really taxed gas guzzlers, we'd be paying less

8:09 am

crosshair

right now we are paying 5 dollars a U.s gallon

8:09 am

crosshair

they have much less tax on fuel than we do

8:09 am

bichon

I haven't been at home since last Wed., but it was going down below $4 per gallon

8:09 am

crosshair

we have 4 taxes on fuel totaling 48% of the pump price

8:10 am

Glantarell

I am paying Â£6.13 a gallon

8:10 am

bichon

I'd like to get a Prius

8:10 am

Glantarell

for UK gallon

8:10 am

crosshair

well the prius is nice,but guess where the ingredients for those fancy batteries come from???

8:10 am

bichon

I don't know, do you?

8:11 am

Glantarell

1 UK gallon is 1.2 US gallons

8:11 am

bichon

Do you have to get replacement batteries?

8:11 am

crosshair

open pit mining on rare earth materials in china..china controls 0ver 90% of the worlds rare earth materials

8:11 am

bichon

Why did I not want to know that?

8:12 am

crosshair

you need to know how the materilas for those batteries come about

8:12 am

Glantarell

$10US per gallon

8:12 am

bichon

Does the battery last the life of the car?

8:12 am

crosshair

green? not!

8:13 am

taxi,s in new york have gotten over 300,000 on a prius

8:13 am

morning, all!

8:13 am

did you know it takes 40,000 gallon or more of fresh water to make a single car?

8:16 am

uusue2

indeed, and you can't tell where the bits and parts were made just by the nameplate - parts come from everywhere. And all modern electronics, pretty much, uses rare earths.

8:16 am

but my dad went into hospital this weekend too. :/

oh, no, eva! good news about the hubby but so sorry to hear about your dad!

8:21 am

we all have a finite time on this planet,somewhere is a date marked down and that number cannot be changed and it is our job to fill each day with as much fun,love and to make changes for the good that will reverberate on this earth long after we have shuffled off this mortal coil,to make someone 200 years from now say"eva made this possible" :) thus we become eternal:)...

8:21 am

8:22 am

herinfernallady

Eva is Dad better?

8:23 am

EvaNadine

theyre not quite sure whats wrong with him, so running a battery of tests. he had gone in on friday, and they sent him home, but mom said he deteriorated so quickly, so she called the ambulance to take him back yesterday.

8:23 am

herinfernallady

Damn

8:24 am

MollyL

Prayers out for your Dad, Eva.

8:24 am

uusue2

oh, that is scary, eva :-( I hope they figure out what is wrong quickly!

8:24 am

EvaNadine

she said he just hadnt looked well for a while, so he had gone into doctors office last week to get a work-up. went in friday for blood test results, and things were just out of whack, which is when doctor sent him to hospital. hospital sent him home with meds, which didnt seem to do much.

8:26 am

uusue2

it is tough to have something wrong that needs to be dealt with, but I think it is much tougher not to know what the problem is. My thoughts are with you and your family, eva.

8:26 am

EvaNadine

saturday morning, getting out of bed, he fell, and mom had to have neighbors help him up. she said he was mostly a zombie for the rest of the day. couldnt stand or walk, and speech was all off.
same thing sunday. doctors had said he was dehydrated, so she was sure to give him lots of fluids, but it seems he has a bunch of other issues too.
hopeing whatever it is isnt too serious and is treatable...

8:27 am

herinfernallady

O Eva. Hugs

8:27 am

EvaNadine

they ruled out a stroke, but all of his blood levels are wrong. 10 years ago, he had a bout with guillain-barre syndrome, and this sounds very much the same, so im wondering if thats back...

8:28 am

crosshair

my prayers go out for your father eva

8:28 am

EvaNadine

thanks, all. its tough, the not knowing.

8:28 am

crosshair

have they checked his thiamin levels eva?

8:30 am

EvaNadine

i would assume so, crossy. they are checking pretty much everything.
his ammonia level is super-high, and that affects your liver -- and being a "recovering" alcoholic, his liver her already been rather abused.
they have also checked his different vitamin levels, and they are all off too...

8:30 am

crosshair

my father had most of those symtoms due to a massive drop in his thamin and was what they call in confabulation" for 2 months

8:30 am

crosshair

my dad is/was a chronic alcoholic

8:32 am

crosshair

there were times he did not even know my name..all your symtoms just reminded me of it

8:32 am

crosshair

and my da is also diabetic,so that just made things worse

8:32 am

herinfernallady

Eva how long has he been sober?

8:32 am

EvaNadine

dad is also bipolar, manic-depressive, and mom said he has really just slipped into a funk lately. its obvious to any of us. he just doesnt DO anything anymore.
if shes out, he cant even be bothered to make himself something to eat -- and he used to be the gourmet cook of the family. he will go days without eating, if she doesnt make him something, and all he does it sit there reading his paper with a cigarette and a drink.

8:33 am

crosshair

:(

8:33 am

herinfernallady

It seems he needs a purpose again

8:33 am

uusue2

I assume he's on meds for the bipolar, eva; sometimes those can need adjusting with age.

8:33 am

trentsnana

sorry to hear that, Eva

8:34 am

trentsnana

my son had gullian barre at the age of 12

8:34 am

EvaNadine

he had been totally sober for a number of years, but the last few years, we allow him a drink now + then. well, "now and then" seems to have turned into all the time, from the sound of it.

8:34 am

trentsnana

horrible thing to go through

8:34 am

uusue2

ah, yes, "now and then" is not a good idea for an alcoholic - it is a pernicious disease.

8:36 am

crosshair

i will share this with you babble buddies,they found my dad,alone in his apt,in a semi-coma after a week drinking binge and another week laying there not eating or doing anything else.he was close to death when they found him..you can drink,and drink and one day it will happen and those thiamin levels go out of whack and the damage is only partially reversable

8:36 am

uusue2

oh, how sad, crossy!

8:37 am

EvaNadine

his main reason for abusing alcohol was his job. he had been sober for 15+ years and retired about 10 years ago. so after he retired, mom figured there wouldnt be much harm in the occasional drink. i was very uncomfortable with it, be he seemed to do fine with it. but these years later, i see i was right to be concerned...

8:37 am

crosshair

did you guys know that the distillers used to add thiamin to spirits,but the govt said no more as it encourages heavy drinking?

8:38 am

uusue2

anyway, I need to go start my day - bbl! Hoping for good news about your dad, eva!

not really sure. they are doing lots of tests to figure out exactly what the underlying problem is.
he had previously gotten a work-up at the doctor, and on friday, when they got blood test results back, his ammonia was extremely high, so doctor sent him to hospital. hospital sent him home with meds, but he got worse over the weekend. couldnt stand/walk, couldnt speak clearly.
yesterday mom had ambulance take him back to hospital. they ruled out a stroke, but all of his bloodwork is off.

9:43 am

Scrabbler

High ammonia could be a liver problem, metabolic problem, poisoning.

9:44 am

EvaNadine

id guess liver problem -- hes a "recovering" alcoholic. and sadly, these days, all he drinks is alcohol.

9:45 am

Scrabbler

Then that's the problem. Probably cirrhotic liver.

9:45 am

Scrabbler

Kidney function is OK?

9:46 am

EvaNadine

not sure. mom hasnt mentioned it, but i think shes getting SO MUCH info, she cant report it all.
friday, they said he was extremely dehydrated (no shock there) so i wouldnt be surprised is there were kidney issues too

9:46 am

rubyfoo

hello everybody

9:47 am

Scrabbler

Hi Ruby

9:47 am

varumba

hi there ruby

9:47 am

EvaNadine

he has history of Guillain-Barre from 10 years ago, so im wondering if that came back...

9:48 am

Scrabbler

Well, Eva, the docs will figure things out and do what they can. It is sad when people make choices that harm their health.

9:49 am

EvaNadine

yes, im hoping they can piece together something from all the tests. and im hoping its not as serious as it feels like it is...

9:49 am

EvaNadine

im hoping its fixable, and im hoping hes willing to fix it.

9:49 am

mrpresident

morning all :) nice wednesday morning temperatur here... almost winter

9:49 am

rubyfoo

hi mrp

9:50 am

Scrabbler

It is his choice, his responsibility. Accepting that, for other family members, is not easy.

9:50 am

mrpresident

hi ruby **hugs**

9:50 am

Scrabbler

Hi mrp. We are in a stretch of 80+ (F) days.

9:50 am

rubyfoo

this has been a horrible day: my belovered Ruby disappeared for almost 2 hrs. She was hiding somewhere but I thought she had dug her way out of the garden and was driving around the neighborhood in tears. I must be crazy.

9:50 am

rubyfoo

When I got back, she was standing inside the property crying

9:51 am

MollyL

(((Eva))) It's hard when a loved one is sick. I hope you get some good news soon.

9:51 am

Scrabbler

Is Ruby a cat or dog?

9:51 am

rubyfoo

I'm a basket case, having lost another dog like that

9:51 am

Scrabbler

Not crazy, Ruby, we LOVE our pets SO much.

9:51 am

mrpresident

oh ruby! how awful for you!!

9:52 am

EvaNadine

im just biding my time here at work. managers wife just had a baby, so im "running things" here. thankfully, he set things up pretty well before he left, so hopefully i dont have to put out any fires while hes gone.

9:52 am

rubyfoo

Ruby is a beautiful 8 1/2 yr old chow chow and she is my favorite of the 5 we've had over the years. But 2 have met tragic (early) ends and one is autistic, so I tend to get very upset

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Does the staff respect you, Eva?

9:53 am

rubyfoo

and my wonderful husband slept through the whole thing, wouldn't get up from his nap while all the neighbors were looking for her in the rain

9:53 am

Scrabbler

So did the dog actually escape and then return?

9:54 am

rubyfoo

he wouldn't even have a cocktail with me because he said he didn't want any part of my obsessing. May I borrow mrp's favorite pr5 word?

9:54 am

EvaNadine

thankfully, we are all a really great team here. i dont really have to be the boss, per se, just help make sure things run smoothly. we are all really self-sufficient. and our head-boss is really good about making sure i know i can go to her if i need anything.
i just havent told her yet about my dad...

9:54 am

Scrabbler

Yikes, I have to leave soon. Eva, peace to you, your Dad and your Mom.

9:54 am

rubyfoo

she must have a hiding place in the shrubbery but I thought I had looked everywhere

9:54 am

EvaNadine

thanks, scrabs.
enjoy your day with the kids!

9:55 am

Scrabbler

Enjoy the day, everyone. I am off to play with a 3 yr old (great imagination!) and then the big kids (7 and 10)
get off the bus at 4.

9:56 am

Scrabbler

Give the dog a hug from me, Ruby.

9:56 am

mrpresident

10:10 am

EvaNadine

actually, i believe it was "gyre and gimble in the wabe" -- and yes, all made-up, though there is some argument that it is based upon very, very old english...

10:10 am

rubyfoo

1:08 pm

uusue2

I've barely started, flosey, 178 left!

1:08 pm

uusue2

I might add that my son used this word in casual conversation.

1:09 pm

flosey

wow, why would that word bother anyone?

1:09 pm

uusue2

they thought it was far too geeky to use, I think :-)

1:09 pm

uusue2

not part of your normal 9th grader's vocabulary, apparently.

1:09 pm

HelenaB

ha, i love that word

1:09 pm

flosey

oh my!

1:10 pm

uusue2

1:21 pm

HelenaB

i've heard it's an english term for a 1 room apartment?

1:22 pm

MollyL

Never heard of that word until today.

1:22 pm

HelenaB

same

1:22 pm

Kazzer99

its okay but thnx helen - just saw it as your clue came up and it is - cant tell you what it short for cos its in its name

1:22 pm

Kazzer99

1:22 pm

Kazzer99

or several over the years

1:24 pm

flosey

aha, just found me8 and 9

1:24 pm

Kazzer99

most be's 6/27 are a single room with a bathroom

1:25 pm

Kazzer99

though i did have one that was a single room with a shared bathroom

1:26 pm

lilliann

when i was with my ex hubby and lived down south,(surrey) we were looking for somewhere to buy all we could afford was a bedsit which cost Â£56,000 so we moved to dover and bought a house,a nd the bedsit was with a shared bathroom. that was in 1992 so god knows what the price is now!

1:26 pm

HelenaB

so kind of what we'd call a studio apartment?

1:27 pm

uusue2

sounds like, helena (although shared baths are rare here)

1:27 pm

Kazzer99

i dont think are even that salubrious - unless you can touch all 4 walls with out movning

1:28 pm

HelenaB

yeah, sue

1:29 pm

Kazzer99

i looked at a flat in bracknell that had a space for the bed that you sort of tripped over as you got up the stairs and you could use the sink in the bathroom if you sat on he toilet

1:30 pm

Kazzer99

and they wanted Â£48k for it in 1996

1:32 pm

lilliann

well, i suppose it saves time kazz. lol i don't know how they could charge so much for sooo little space, and when they say it has a kitchen area, that makes me laugh!

1:34 pm

Kazzer99

Kazzer99

just been filling in the food diary

1:42 pm

Kazzer99

by lill

1:42 pm

flosey

food diary?

1:43 pm

Kazzer99

hmm do it every day - tells me how many cals i have left - you also put in your exercise and it tells you how much to eat to lose 2lbs a week

1:44 pm

flosey

oh, watching diet

1:44 pm

flosey

good luck

1:44 pm

Kazzer99

all the time but this allows you to build in goodies

1:45 pm

Kazzer99

i must lose 4 stone by december - might do it this time

1:45 pm

uusue2

why by december, kazz!

1:45 pm

uusue2

?

1:46 pm

uusue2

(I could do with losing a similar amount, and more, of course...)

1:46 pm

Kazzer99

i am seeing the endocrinologist and i want him to be pleased with me

1:46 pm

flosey

I'd love to as well, need to lose this tummy

1:46 pm

uusue2

ah! are you diabetic?

1:47 pm

Kazzer99

i actually need to lose at least another 6 after that as well

1:47 pm

Kazzer99

yes have been for the last 14 years

1:48 pm

uusue2

I am trying to control my eating as well but have found that trying to record all my food sends me into deep rebellion

1:48 pm

Kazzer99

i used to but i have to lose it this time so i ignore the rebels in my brain

1:48 pm

uusue2

so I have set some guidelines for myself and am getting more exercise; need to ramp up the exercise by a lot but don't want to do it suddenly (too old for that any more...)

1:49 pm

uusue2

well, good for you, kazz!!! I am very impressed.

1:50 pm

Kazzer99

i am walking about 10,000 steps a day now want to ramp that up to 15,000 soon - need to walk for 63 hours this month in a challenge in the work gym

1:51 pm

flosey

wow, that is quite a lot of walking

1:51 pm

flosey

over 2 hours/day

1:52 pm

beachboggle

hi alll; been lurking... I am in a similar situation as is uusue. I use the livestrong.com website's food and exercise log. It works great!

1:52 pm

flosey

hi beach

1:52 pm

beachboggle

Now if only I could stay with it

1:52 pm

uusue2

right now I am walking back and forth to work which gets me about 40 minutes/day; soon I will add some weights (I actually really like doing weights, go figure)

1:52 pm

flosey

I'll take a look at that beach, thanks

1:52 pm

uusue2

lol, beach, that is certainly my problem!!!

1:53 pm

beachboggle

sure... it is a free site

1:53 pm

Kazzer99

yes it a lot flosey but i have an hour in the morning, 30 minutes in work and then another 30minutes in the evenng and at the weekends we regular walk 5 -10 hours

1:54 pm

Kazzer99

i use myfitnespal.com - its very good

1:54 pm

Kazzer99

i am down to 62 and struggling so i might have to go back to lurking with the list to finish off

1:55 pm

flosey

just IM with daughter at the moment

2:00 pm

Kazzer99

i just read your profile flosey - it made me cry

2:03 pm

flosey

ah kazz, but thanks for reading, I hated to move on to next day's icon

2:04 pm

flosey

such a great story and reminder to those of us enjoying the luxuries of normal life

2:04 pm

Kazzer99

hmm - i know i lost some friends in the Falkllands War in 1982

2:05 pm

flosey

oh, and that was such a short one! I've never lost anyone close to me in this way

2:06 pm

Kazzer99

anyway enough sadness for now - i must go and lurk to the best of my ability

2:07 pm

flosey

ok, great chatting

2:07 pm

uusue2

bye, kazz!

2:07 pm

flosey

down to 13 now

2:07 pm

lilliann

am back and just read through chat and i agree kazz, i had a tear in my eye too. my brother came back from afghanistan last year and he was in iraq and bosnia and he is a territorial

2:07 pm

Kazzer99

i still have 61!!

2:07 pm

uusue2

127 left here so at least I am more than half way....

2:08 pm

Kazzer99

some work colleagues have been at fort bastian

2:08 pm

uusue2

and I found the original of the writeup flosey posted and put it on my facebook - I thought it was quite wonderful. and sad.

2:08 pm

Kazzer99

bedsits

2:08 pm

flosey

ty sue, what a great idea

2:09 pm

Kazzer99

soorry soorry

2:09 pm

flosey

there are so many people who follow facebook

2:09 pm

lilliann

i feel the same way as that soldier as you only see or hear it on the news when some poor brave soldier has been killed but what about all those that have suffered for months and years with injuries

2:10 pm

flosey

I watched the American Memorial service, it was beautiful, but there were many returned soldiers, etc. sitting in front rows, missing limbs, etc.

2:10 pm

flosey

and, of course, just happy to be back\

2:13 pm

lilliann

it is the same here flosey. they have a long recovery and have to come to terms with not being the person they were before, and what really gets me is that the government tells them to go to war but doesn't pay for everything afterwards. alot of places need charity donations to give out brave men and women the care they need and deserve

2:13 pm

uusue2

thx, kazz, I totally missed the plural :-)

2:14 pm

Kazzer99

so did i which is why i typed it in the wrong place!

2:14 pm

flosey

wow lil, I'm not sure, but think our vets are well looked after

2:14 pm

uusue2

same here - our support for veterans is nowhere near what it should be - so many are jobless and homeless, and need medical assistance that they aren't getting...

2:15 pm

flosey

am just remembering an uncle who came back, he had been injured but able to work, still received some pension - that was WW2

2:16 pm

lilliann

we have help for heroes which is a well known charity here in the uk and they had a huge concert to raise money. when i sell my greeting cards and jewellery i donate money to them

2:17 pm

flosey

how thoughtful of you, lil

2:17 pm

uusue2

nice, lilli!

2:17 pm

uusue2

and now I am off for a while, working on a book review

2:17 pm

flosey

bfn sue

2:18 pm

lilliann

if a soldier dies and they were married and live in married quarters the wife has so many weeks before she has to move out. i think that is disgusting! she is grieving and has to look for alternate housing quickly!

2:19 pm

flosey

so that's the thanks they both get, you'd think there'd be some sort of pension for the wife

2:20 pm

lilliann

not really, it's just something i should do, and i did it before my brother was over there. they are putting their lives on the line for us.

2:20 pm

lilliann

bye sue

2:20 pm

Kazzer99

there is a war widows pension but i am not sure how much it is - i know its not much

2:20 pm

lilliann

i think they get a pension

2:21 pm

flosey

lunchtime here, must get on, bbl

2:21 pm

flosey

get on with it!

2:21 pm

lilliann

bfn flosey

2:23 pm

Kazzer99

been reading you only get if partner died before April 2006 - lafter than this date is covered by the Armed forces Compensation service

2:24 pm

lilliann

so do they get a lump sum now then kazz?

2:29 pm

lilliann

stupid question really as compensation usually is!! i bet it is less than if they got a pension

2:43 pm

2:50 pm

lilliann

thanks for the ti's min :)

2:50 pm

Minveryork

I did not accomplish the fe 4/7 of finishing grid, but I did reach my goal of getting half the words and I got 82 words le 4/7. Now I will re 6/18 a story of clues. I have not been de 4/8 with grids this week. In fact, I have been a do 4/6 when babbling.Luck has not been on my si 4/5 when it comes to getting fireworks this week. I do know that my rank has de7/44d since last week. But I do not give a do 4/5. I babble for fun not for rankings.I'm el5/10ed just to have the chance to babble each day. Husband has al 5/10ed me that it is ti 4/5 for him to use computer. He has ti5/14 me and said I've been ti4/5 to this computer for three hours and he is ti 5/12 of waiting for the computer.I wish I could just fl4/7 out refuse to give him computer. But that would be a fl4/11 as the consequences would be very gr 4/7. I do not want to st 4/4 up any trouble. Having one computer is the pi 4/5. I didn't ed4/5 my story so there might be some mistakes.Hope you got the gi 4/6 of most of my clues. I'm going to go watch the film True Gr4/6.Love Jeff Bridges.He's my id4/6.I love him in the John Wayne ro4/4.Then I am going to go read a book up in the lo 4/7 while my hubby si 4/4 here and plays Farmville. I'll be back la4/4r on to help with clues if needed and maybe finish the grid if I can

crosshair

a cute pick for a change up

4:19 pm

lilliann

back again. hi all. just seen on the news that we have had the driest april for 100 years. farmers are saying that they won't have enough food to feed their animals as their crops aren't growing

4:20 pm

lilliann

oh great, amd they've just said that food prices will go up even more because of it!! happy times!

4:22 pm

crosshair

:(( we are so wet here that the farmers cannot get their crops planted and may lose the season

4:23 pm

crosshair

they take out what is know at planing date insurance..they MUST get it in within the next week or so

4:23 pm

crosshair

planting

4:23 pm

lilliann

it's a shame we can't share a bit of the weather crossy

4:23 pm

crosshair

so we have both extremes going i suppose

4:24 pm

crosshair

inddeed lillian

4:24 pm

lilliann

but will that cover what they can make on the crops?

4:24 pm

crosshair

they will plant irregardless,but they may be planting in mud and the shoots may rot in the fields

4:25 pm

crosshair

IF we get the next 4 or 5 days sunny and warm(like today) it may be saved

4:25 pm

lilliann

i suppose the insurance is better than nowt, but does the insurance pay out as they normally make some excuse not to

4:26 pm

crosshair

you and i both know..insurance never pays enough for a total loss...no matter what is being insured

4:26 pm

lilliann

well i'm hoping you have nice weather like today then crossy as farming is one of the most difficult and underpaid jobs going

4:26 pm

lilliann

very true crossy!

4:27 pm

crosshair

i imagine it will pay for time,workers,and all the fuel to run the equipment..but any potential crop earnings will be lost

4:27 pm

crosshair

farmers are heros,and are mistreated the world over

4:28 pm

crosshair

here we get big corporations buying up 5 or ten farms all in a row and running them as a single farm

4:28 pm

crosshair

the smallhold farmers days are numbered

4:28 pm

lilliann

i couldn't be a farmer! i couldn't get rid of my animals and they'd all have names

4:28 pm

lilliann

alot of the farms here now are now becoming farm attractions

4:29 pm

crosshair

we had a small farm once and named the pigs names like,pork chop,back bacon etc..to remind us of what we are doing and we were not there to raise barn pets lol

4:29 pm

lilliann

what a shame for the smallholds. they've got no chance

4:29 pm

crosshair

none lillian

4:30 pm

lilliann

i'd be the same as you crossy, did you ever eat them in the end?

4:30 pm

crosshair

but many are fighting back and going to custom organic farming and experimental seed cross pollination etc

4:31 pm

crosshair

pick your own etc.we have one farm here where he rents out garden grids to city people so they can come up and grow their own fresh veggies

4:31 pm

crosshair

i did indeed eat them

4:32 pm

crosshair

we made our money back with enough leftover to fill our freezer with a full cow and a full pig all cut and wrapped

4:32 pm

lilliann

i liike going to the farm attractions as you get to feed the lambs, and hold baby chicks etc, plus they now have extra animals which are not farm animals and outdoor/indoor play areas for the bairns and cafes...i suppose thats the only way they can afford to keep them aswell as having livestock to breed and sell

4:32 pm

crosshair

so we basically ran the farm for food,then added a second job for mortgage and bills etc

4:33 pm

lilliann

i love that idea crossy. i bet alot of city people take him up on it too

4:34 pm

crosshair

they are indeed doing that here as well,trying a combination of things to keep the farms going.in many cases if the land and the farm had not already been paid for and passed down..they would be gone already

4:34 pm

lilliann

that's a good way to do it crossy. did you not feel funny eating the animals you had named and petted?

4:34 pm

crosshair

they do indeed,last i was he had over 50 plots going and was setting up a road side area so plot renters can sell off their excess

4:35 pm

uusue2

hi again, all!

4:35 pm

crosshair

all orgaic..he allows no sprays or pesticides

4:35 pm

crosshair

howdy sue!

4:35 pm

lilliann

great idea, that they can grow for themselves and then make money from extras

4:35 pm

lilliann

hi sue

4:36 pm

crosshair

did not feel funny lillian..in the end farming must be a business or all is lost

4:36 pm

lilliann

that's even better crossy

4:36 pm

lilliann

have you seen on the news about the organic cucumbers apparently killing people in germany?

4:37 pm

crosshair

we had one deal once,where we were to baby sit 25 pregnant cows for the winter till they calved in the spring..omg! what a nightmare!

4:37 pm

crosshair

i have not lillian

4:38 pm

crosshair

a cow can find ANY hole or weakness in a fence..any weakness lol

4:38 pm

uusue2

holy *)(*(& - just looked at our real-time electricity price - 81.5 cents per kwh (well over 10x normal). egads! maybe I will stay in my office a while longer...

4:38 pm

lilliann

i know that's true crossy, and if i was from a farmer's family then i would be the same but as i'm not knowing me i would feel differently

4:38 pm

crosshair

ouch!!!!

4:39 pm

crosshair

it is 86 f here and we have 3 strategically placed fans...no AC as the hydro is too$$$

4:40 pm

uusue2

and meanwhile our utilities are at the state house asking for a multibillion dollar rate hike :-(

4:40 pm

lilliann

that's a long time crossy1 do you have to watch them closely? sotty, i'm a townie, so have no idea, although i do live in a village and outside my house is a horse in a field and coews and sheep 2 minutes away by car but i have no clue as in caring for them

4:40 pm

uusue2

79F here but no way am I turning on the AC!!! fans here too!!

4:41 pm

crosshair

and window blinds in all windows to diffuse the light and heat

4:42 pm

crosshair

you ahve to watch cows like a hawk,plus we were new at it and learned about quality fencing fast

4:43 pm

crosshair

and in the spring we spent all morning shooting gophers out the kitchen window and on the porch

4:43 pm

crosshair

the cows would step in the gopher holes and break their legs

4:44 pm

crosshair

groundhogs here we call them same thing

I have a question re: rankings. I hadn't missed finishing doing a grid for about a month... my score didn't move... stuck at 1,001 .... Then last night I didn't finish because site was down and score dropped 10 points ! lol

5:18 pm

lilliann

i don't understand the scoring on here diane. i know i can be at the same place for days after finishing a grid, and then all of a sudeen i'm way up but if you don't finish or don't play a game you go down straight away

5:19 pm

lynxxx

the more words you miss finishing, the greater the loss too.

5:19 pm

dianedecoder

you sure do !! I only compete against myself, so it's not a big deal... I'd just love to get it up to the max though, or near to it

5:19 pm

lilliann

it's not fair when you can't finish because the site has gone down. it's happened to us all

5:20 pm

dianedecoder

true, Lyn.... I think I had 75 words left last night when the flip came

5:20 pm

lilliann

i think i will be minus tonight!

5:21 pm

Maybe look at the Rankings in the 1st or 2nd columns, they are more meaningful

5:21 pm

then work as if in a coma for 8 hours and repeat

5:47 pm

lilliann

what annoys me, is that my hubby can sleep at 5/6pm for 2 hours and then an hour later go to bad and sleep all night!!

5:48 pm

sprite

hahaha my love too. If he can't get asleep within 5 minutes after hitting his pillow, he claims he has insomnia.

5:48 pm

lilliann

i would babble sprite but i've usually finished the grid beforehand but i do sometimes clue, but i'm not very good so better that i dont!! lol

5:48 pm

crosshair

i watch in fascination as my wife and child can sleep for a solid 7-9 hours and not even move or muss up the sheets

5:49 pm

crosshair

just me and the cats wandering around at 2 am

5:49 pm

sprite

it is a very personal thing, sleep. As is insomnia. They come in all sorts and sizes.

5:49 pm

lilliann

when my hubby is home, within 2 minutes of his head hitting the pillow he is snoring!! drives me potty as i'm deaf and can actually hear him downstairs so you can imagine what it's like lying next to him!!

5:50 pm

gapeach

I know what you mean crosshair.

5:50 pm

crosshair

the idea of sleep 7 solid hours in a row is but a dream within a dream...

5:50 pm

sprite

sounds to me like a dream without a dream, actually

5:50 pm

crosshair

;)

5:51 pm

lilliann

plus he is 6ft and built like a brick **** house(excuse french) and when he turns over it's like lying on a trampoline plus it reverberates through the mattress and it gives me pressure in my head

5:51 pm

forwardbyfaith

last word - help with the first fo6,27 please?

5:51 pm

sprite

seperate bedrooms. Absolutely, lill.

5:51 pm

fo6/27 - descriptive of a pre-birth baby

5:53 pm

forwardbyfaith

i've seen that clue, but still can't get it haz

5:53 pm

Haz1558

Or add a vowel to the alternative spelling fe5/16.

5:53 pm

MollyL

fo + not early

5:53 pm

sprite

fo6: enemy + a fairy ***e

5:53 pm

Haz1558

If you have fe5/16 - put an o in the appropriate place.

5:53 pm

forwardbyfaith

5:54 pm

sprite

yvw

5:54 pm

lilliann

2 mattresses, good idea! i couldn't sleep in a seperate bed as i don't see him much so i like a cuddle when he's home

5:54 pm

MollyL

Pardon my incorrect clue, I am not paying attention tonight.

5:54 pm

sprite

thanks Molly, I didn't have that one yet

5:55 pm

sprite

cuddles are more important that sleep, I concur

5:56 pm

lynxxx

well it's nudging above 5c so I guess its time to kick Stew out of his bed and go for a walk - the sun is out and blue skies at least...Bye everyone

5:56 pm

sprite

darn... isn't tipo a typo for typo?

5:57 pm

Haz1558

Bye, lynxxx.

5:57 pm

6:00 pm

sprite

'tis the honest truth!

6:00 pm

lilliann

i get pressure in my head and suffer from dizzy spells all the time so even the cat moving and licking itself doesn't help! but i wouldn't be without any of them or stop them from sleeping in MY bed!! lol

6:01 pm

lilliann

it doesn't help when the bairn comes in and uses my bed as a trampoline!!!

6:01 pm

sprite

exactly. Same with my love and Terra. They make my heart sing. So who cares about sleep ;)

6:02 pm

sprite

argh! Luckily my bairns are too big for that now.

6:06 pm

lilliann

i looked after a hamster at high school during the holidays and my mam and dad went out for the night, so me and my brother got it out of the cage. it was a big ginger hamster. it was running around the lounge floor and then i picked it up and put it on my lap, it then disappeared down the side of the armchair i was sitting in and ended up at the bottom of it. my brother and i had to cut a big slit in the lining to get it out. the only problem is, it was a brand new suite my mam and dad had just bout 2 days earlier. we never did tell them. well i di when i was 35, as i wasn't going to get a smack then lol

6:06 pm

sprite

hahahaha I can picture the whole scene!

6:07 pm

lilliann

my daughter is 12 in october sprite but she jumps on the bed and she is built like her dad, tall and muscualr so she moves, and i bounce...lol

6:08 pm

sprite

lol. Well we sleep under a... errrr... how does one say that... we sleep in the attic and the walls aren't straight up. Jumping on our bed would get their heads banged by the wall.

6:09 pm

gapeach

must find food....back in a bit.

6:10 pm

lilliann

i have a toom like that, pehaps i should have that as my bedroom so hubby and daughter hit their heads, then maybe they won't bounce or move so much and i can get a good night's sleep! :)

6:12 pm

sprite

gratz inge

6:12 pm

MollyL

I think it's called a dormer Sprite. I know what you're talking about. If I slept somewhere like that, I would have a black and blue forehead. : )

6:13 pm

lilliann

yay! wtg inge!!

6:13 pm

sprite

lol Molly, after a bump or two, three, four, you'd get the message, trust me :)

6:14 pm

lilliann

ours is in the upper part of a coal house molly. we had a floor put in and it is rather spacious for a coal house, but the toof

6:14 pm

lilliann

oops but the roof slopes more than the roof on the house

6:15 pm

sprite

ah I think that is the word I was looking for: sloping roof. I think. / that kind of roof

6:15 pm

crosshair

lillian..i found that you can get peel and stick cifor those emergency keyboard repairsrcular letters at some dollar stores!

6:15 pm

lilliann

crosshair

what happened there?

6:16 pm

sprite

lol really crossy?

6:16 pm

Haz1558

Sloped ceiling is the nearest description I can think of - with dormer windows.

6:16 pm

crosshair

peel and stick keyboard letters*

6:16 pm

jessmom

crossy is not only the spokesman, he's also a client

6:16 pm

sprite

thanks Haz, will try and remember.

6:16 pm

lilliann

will they not rub off quickly crossy with alot of use?

6:17 pm

sprite

crossy, it helps if you put those letters on the right keys

6:17 pm

lilliann

i've not seen them here

6:17 pm

crosshair

they are a temp fix for a month or so,till you break down and get a new board for 8 dollars lol

6:17 pm

MollyL

*Encourages Sprite not to pay attention to a thing I type here* : P

6:17 pm

sprite

'normal' keyboards cost less than those stickers, lol

6:18 pm

sprite

huh? Whaddayamean, Molly, I answered!

6:18 pm

crosshair

i get the basic microsoft qwerty keyboard for 8-0 dollars,they last 6 months on average

6:18 pm

lilliann

hi jess

6:18 pm

crosshair

8-10 dollars*

6:19 pm

jessmom

hi lilli

6:19 pm

MollyL

I meant I was wrong about what dormer means. : P

6:19 pm

lilliann

i have a spare keyboard but it doesn't go with this computor, well that is what hubby said

6:19 pm

sprite

ohhhhh! Ok! It could have been correct, it just wasn't this time ;)

6:20 pm

lilliann

and the letters don't rub off on that one

6:20 pm

sprite

my last keyboard didn't show any letters on the asdw keys.

6:20 pm

lilliann

this is just a cheap keyboard!

6:20 pm

crosshair

lol,someone is a heavy gamer is the wasd keys are the first to go;)

6:21 pm

MollyL

Even though I touch type, I think it would bug me to have the letters gone.

6:21 pm

lilliann

it drives my hubby and bairn mad, that they can't see the letters!!

6:21 pm

sprite

I confess :D

6:21 pm

sprite

they must learn to type blind then, lill. You give them a good reason to!

6:22 pm

lilliann

i touch type too molly, but i think it's because i use it so much or hubby and bairn are too heavy handed...who knows

6:22 pm

uusue2

hi again, all!

6:22 pm

crosshair

sprite is busted:)

6:22 pm

wb sue

6:22 pm

very much so, lol

I am evil. I used to rearrange the letters on the keyboards of co-workers that I knew typed by the hunt and peck method.

6:22 pm

sprite

hi uusue!

6:23 pm

uusue2

hi, lilli, sprite, molly, crossy!

ohhhh Molly! That IS evil! And funny :)

6:23 pm

lilliann

lmao molly...love it!! :)

6:23 pm

MollyL

Sue, I just watched the season finale of House. I have no clue where the writers are going with this story. And I have decided that I don't like Taub. I don't like him a lot.

6:23 pm

crosshair

lol do that to me molly and as soon as i fixed my keys i would give you the dreaded "coke tray virus" lol

6:23 pm

crosshair

howdy again sue

6:23 pm

6:24 pm

uusue2

Taub is a schmuck.

6:24 pm

lilliann

6:24 pm

sprite

Taub is in the grid

6:25 pm

lilliann

i use to watch house but have missed the last 2 series

6:25 pm

crosshair

too bad we are losing cutty.i tuned in many times just to see what dress she was going to squeeze that butt into next:)

6:25 pm

sprite

I used to put cellotape on the telephone contact. Then when the phone rang and my colleague picked up, the thing kept on ringing.

6:25 pm

MollyL

I've never gotten this "Taub is a sex fiend" story line. I mean come on, he's not exactly the best looking thing on the block.

6:26 pm

sprite

cutty is cool

6:26 pm

crosshair

cutty is hot;))

6:26 pm

lilliann

you're bad sprite...lol

6:26 pm

MollyL

Cuddy is gone. She won't be back next season. I'm wondering how they will write that in.

6:26 pm

uusue2

cutty is definitely hot. Taub, not so much.

6:26 pm

crosshair

cuddy or cutty?

6:26 pm

sprite

grin, well I am female and hetero, so I think she is cool. But I get your point!

6:27 pm

sprite

cuddy

6:27 pm

lilliann

now you lot have spoilt it for me when i catch up!! :((((

6:27 pm

crosshair

whoever she is you can crack eggs on dat tushie:)

6:27 pm

crosshair

cough..brb,time for meds....

6:27 pm

MollyL

Sorry Lilliann, I thought you mentioned that you didn't watch anymore.

6:28 pm

lilliann

we are behind you here, but i will let you all off if you all clue me 5 words that i don't have each!!! :)))

6:28 pm

uusue2

don't worry, lilli, there are plenty of details that will still be a complete surprise if you do get caught up

6:28 pm

sprite

it was fun, back then, working like a fiend and still making time for little jokes like that. Switching the receivers of two or 3 phones went down well too.

6:28 pm

MollyL

It's not a part of the story line that she won't be back, just celebrity gossip. It won't ruin the episodes you've missed to know that.

6:28 pm

MollyL

*Glad I didn't spill other beans*

6:29 pm

sprite

a part of the skin x 2, those that sell flowers, Afrikaans for village, lukewarm and healing plant.

6:30 pm

lilliann

i'll let everyone off if you all clue me 5 words each!! lol

6:30 pm

MollyL

And someone needs to tell Olivia Wild that the hair pulled back look DOESN'T WORK. Good Lord, she has the most receded hairline. She looked like the woman who played Elizabeth R on PBS.

6:30 pm

sprite

I just did. 6 even! And you are not allowed to pretend you already had them :P

6:30 pm

lilliann

thanks sprite, i have to think now...far too late/early in the morning!! :)

6:31 pm

uusue2

<--- did not know the Afrikaans word for village

6:31 pm

sprite

6:33 pm

sprite

6:37 pm

6:42 pm

lilliann

you really need the list with this grid sprite!

6:43 pm

sprite

it is certainly going to help, if now only my brain would start working too

6:44 pm

uusue2

this one seems slightly less nasty than yesterday's, but then I never finished yesterday's...

6:44 pm

lilliann

well, we do have the excuse that it is very late! :)

6:44 pm

sprite

didn't play yesterday, alas

6:44 pm

sprite

true! It's la4! We are smart. Just ti5!

6:45 pm

lilliann

really sue? i thought yesterdays was alot easier than todays!

6:46 pm

lilliann

i could find words easily yesterday, today i'm looking at letters and getting blanks!!

6:46 pm

uusue2

well, I still have 102 left, so lots of trickiness ahead I am sure!

6:47 pm

lilliann

you'll do it, we will help you

6:48 pm

lilliann

there are some tricky,. nasty words today mind!!

6:48 pm

sprite

hah found one. al6/27. Good work, monkeys.

6:48 pm

lilliann

49 here and fading

6:48 pm

uusue2

haven't had to list yet - yesterday I was listing before getting 1/2 way through!

6:48 pm

lilliann

my monkeys passed out hours ago sprite

6:49 pm

uusue2

ah yes, put that one in the physics babblets earlier, sprite

6:50 pm

sprite

very good! Just looked it up, didn't know the word. At least I justified my babbling for today.

6:50 pm

uusue2

me too :-)

6:52 pm

uusue2

ok, heading over to expert...

6:54 pm

sprite

As assimilated. Bs beware. Resistance is futile.

6:54 pm

uusue2

same here, sprite! Yay us!!

6:54 pm

sprite

yayy!

6:58 pm

lilliann

has anyone else had problems with babble?

6:58 pm

uusue2

not recently, lilli

6:58 pm

sprite

just a minute ago, the whole thing froze and I had to refreh

6:58 pm

sprite

refresh* even

7:00 pm

lilliann

i'm having trouble with the chat!

7:00 pm

lilliann

i'm having trouble with the chat!

7:00 pm

uusue2

my last post was a little slow - try reloading?

7:00 pm

sprite

poor lill. Hit 'refresh babble' in the expert or do control + F5 on the page, it might solve it.

7:01 pm

sprite

and reloading will be slow, because of the long list today, so don't worry too soon

7:02 pm

Mary

clue for be6/27 & 7/40 have the one for the fog

7:02 pm

sprite

hello Mary. Try thing to sleep in + what you do on a chair.

7:02 pm

uusue2

place you sleep + what you do in a chair, mary, then plural

7:03 pm

sprite

*smiles at uusue* GMTA ;)

7:05 pm

MollyL

The definition of be 6/27 makes me think of a way too small place to live.

7:05 pm

sprite

so... are there actually people that worried about their sleeping things that they need ***ters for them?

7:06 pm

Mary

ty sprite, molly & uusue you are all awesome

7:06 pm

sprite

lol Molly, indeed.
Yw Mary

7:06 pm

sprite

found a word that means more like one of Snow White's dwarves :)

7:06 pm

uusue2

I think it's a British term for a very tiny apartment (so there's nowhere to *** except on the ***, if you get my drift)

7:07 pm

uusue2

and I just added di6/24 to the physics babblets :-)

7:07 pm

sprite

lol that is beyond tiny, that is cramped!

7:07 pm

sprite

good job uusue!

7:08 pm

MollyL

I recently saw an article about the tiniest living space I've ever seen. It's in New York and it's not much bigger than a walk in closet. Sleeping on the loft bed, your head is six inches from the ceiling. NO THANKS.

7:09 pm

sprite

ouch that would keep me permanently awake. I have recurring nightmares about crevices like that.

7:09 pm

uusue2

when I was a graduate student I looked at renting a room in a house that was basically just about big enough for a single mattress. It was only $35/month but really was ridiculously small.

7:10 pm

sprite

I could live in something that small, as long as it was high enough

7:11 pm

MollyL

I looked at a townhouse once in which the second and third bedrooms were big enough for a single bed and a tiny dresser. Too cramped for me, and my family.

7:12 pm

sprite

I want gimble and timble to be valid. Those are words, I am so certain!

7:13 pm

MollyL

Gimbal is a pivoted support. Not sure about gimble. Timble is what you sew with, when you're tipsy. : P

7:13 pm

sprite

I have been homeless for a while, so I won't ever say something is too cramped to live in.

7:13 pm

sprite

roflol!

7:14 pm

MollyL

Oh Sprite, I'm sure being without a place to live makes you grateful for whatever space you can find.

7:15 pm

sprite

absolutely. Having a door you can close and a roof that keeps you dry is priceless

7:17 pm

sprite

not meaning to kill the chat with that!

7:17 pm

Minveryork

Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?

7:17 pm

sprite

hi Minver :)

7:17 pm

Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

7:19 pm

MollyL

Not killing the chat Sprite. And thanks for the reminder to be grateful for my small, but charming home.

7:19 pm

sprite

it is a cliche, I know, but counting my blessings is what keeps me at the right side of sanity

7:19 pm

sprite

how are you, Minver?

7:20 pm

Mary

Woke up this am with a gorgeous breeze and the smell of lilacs coming in the window. Thought I had gone to heaven.

7:20 pm

sprite

what a lovely way to start your day, Mary

7:20 pm

Minveryork

I am fighting allergies,other than that I am ok sprite.

7:20 pm

uusue2

lilacs are wonderful, mary!

7:20 pm

MollyL

Not a cliche. An attitude of gratitude brings more good things into your life. If The Universe doesn't feel gratitude for what you have, it has no motivation to send you more goodness.

7:21 pm

sprite

allergies are a bummer, but glad the rest is ok, Minver

7:21 pm

Mary

two years ago trimmed the lilac bush too late so last year had no blossoms but this year it is full and smells lovely

7:21 pm

sprite

so true, Molly. I always feel it is what you focus on. Focus on the blessings and the universe sends you more. Focus on the shit and ... well... it hits the fan.

7:22 pm

MollyL

A gorgeous breeze, sending the scent of lilacs through the bedroom window is definitely heavenly.

7:22 pm

Minveryork

Went to doctor yesterday. She put me on 5 different medications one of which is a steroid. Don't like that.

7:22 pm

MollyL

Amen Sprite. Thoughts become things.

7:22 pm

Minveryork

LOL sprite!

7:22 pm

Mary

how true Sprite

7:23 pm

crosshair

good lord,just had my boy take out the recycle and some guy who lives in our apt is rummaging through it and removing all spirit and wine bottles..i forgot we can now get a 40 cent deposit back on those now

7:23 pm

sprite

argh I understand, that is not pleasant, Minver. But I think she wouldn't do it if it wasn't necessary. Your allergies must be severe.

7:24 pm

sprite

so you cleaned up your space and gave that guy a gift, crossy... good going!

7:24 pm

Mary

better start saving them crosshair. here in the states we recycle and get nothing.

7:25 pm

Minveryork

Hello crosshair!How are you doing?Welcome to puzzle

7:25 pm

Mary

Village however make all sorts of money and still raises our taxes

7:27 pm

sprite

did you all notice the "ALLLLL spirits and wine bottles" part?

7:27 pm

crosshair

we generally recycle anyways,but i forgot the LCBO was going back to a deposit system

7:28 pm

MollyL

*Noticed*

7:28 pm

crosshair

we last had a deposit system(otner than beer bottles) back around 977

7:28 pm

crosshair

1977

7:28 pm

sprite

*evil grin*

7:29 pm

uusue2

ooh, min, I don't like steroids :-(

7:29 pm

sprite

I think 977 spirit and wine bottles is a lot already

7:30 pm

Minveryork

Me neither, but I do not have to take them very long.

7:30 pm

uusue2

ah, that

7:30 pm

crosshair

i used to get an allowance of 25 cents a week,that would get me a small bag of chips and a quart of cream soda,i got 0 cents back on the deposit and got half penny candy with it:)

7:30 pm

uusue2

sorry, that's good that you only need them for a short time

7:30 pm

crosshair

10

7:30 pm

crosshair

my one is sticking

7:31 pm

sprite

aw that is sweet, crossy

7:31 pm

Minveryork

Take 4 for 2 days,then 3 for 2 days,then 2 for 2 days and then 1 for 2 days.I hope that it helps my allergies

7:31 pm

sprite

am glad it will be temporary, Minver. I hope you will have the benefits without too much of the side effects.

7:31 pm

uusue2

there is a risk of very nasty bone disease (which I have) with high or long-term steroid use - but that sounds quite minimal.

7:32 pm

periwinkle

hi all79 left

7:32 pm

VAgirl

ha! me too!

7:32 pm

periwinkle

treated myself to a pedicure today :) no manicure since I still have tendonitis in left wrist/arm

7:32 pm

7:32 pm

hi periwinkle and VAgirl. 55 here and stuck on the M.

7:33 pm

nice, peri! I have often thought a pedicure would be a nice treat.

I am learning to play mahjong. it is much more difficult to play in person than to play online.

7:49 pm

lbdawger

7:49 pm

sprite

7:49 pm

lbdawger

hi UU, Hi Marc

7:49 pm

7:49 pm

Marc Freeman

I need 6, hi lbd

7:50 pm

sprite

7:50 pm

dianedecoder

awww no... that's tough. I still had 197 left when it came back up and I got that down to 77 by flip time.

7:50 pm

lbdawger

i think that's the first grid i didn't finish in over a year! *sigh*

7:50 pm

Marc Freeman

Thanks sprite got it. Got to go now, poof!!!

7:50 pm

7:51 pm

lbdawger

bye, Marc. glad you could see us! lol

7:51 pm

dianedecoder

It's the first one I haven't finished in about a month and my score took a wee dive.

7:51 pm

uusue2

bye, marc!

7:51 pm

sprite

aw never mind the scores. But not being able to finish because the site is down is really frustrating.

7:52 pm

lbdawger

i haven't looked at the rankings. just knowing i finish is enough obsession for me! lol

7:52 pm

uusue2

<---- pays essentially no attention to scores

7:52 pm

dianedecoder

I'd love to get mine to the 1030 and stay there, but it moves up very slowly.

7:53 pm

sprite

I need a midnight snack, back in a minunte

7:54 pm

lbdawger

:-)

7:54 pm

dianedecoder

I'm sure you might have at one time Molly.... I don't even know what others have... I just like to challenge myself

7:55 pm

uusue2

<--- feeling all warm and fuzzy now that Molly has called her a friend :-)

7:56 pm

lbdawger

i used to watch my ranking, but that just made me more obsessive. decided that just finishing is good

7:56 pm

sprite

back with goodies

7:56 pm

lbdawger

welp, must log off for the night. waiting for hubby to call.

7:56 pm

MollyL

The only time I go to the rankings page is when I need to dig up a list when Lickety is down.

7:56 pm

uusue2

I like to finish, but sometimes life, or work, interfere, so I just don't worry about it.

7:57 pm

periwinkle

bye lbd

7:57 pm

sprite

night dawg

7:57 pm

uusue2

bye, lbd!

7:57 pm

dianedecoder

I've only been playing for 8 months... I'm sure the novelty of the challenge will wear off in time

7:57 pm

MollyL

I play this game for fun, to take a break and for the lovely people here who chat.

7:58 pm

sprite

I think so too, diane. I have only been playing for 7 years now, though, so it may take some more time

7:58 pm

uusue2

well, I played for a little while and then went away for a long time; it's been maybe 4 months since I came back, but I do love the chat and everyone on it!

7:58 pm

uusue2

also love the game, of course...

7:58 pm

crosshair

i have been playing for a long time..then act of finishing decreases and does not become a factor

7:59 pm

sprite

I love to play the game, I love the rush of the start and the struggle for the last ones. And I love the babblers.

7:59 pm

dianedecoder

"only" 7 years ...lol

7:59 pm

crosshair

i actually finish one grid in ten

7:59 pm

sprite

*giggles* Yeah, no decreasing here~!

8:01 pm

MollyL

The rush of the start is fun Sprite. I keep chat turned off until I get nbs, nbt and the long ones. Then I know I've dug around for them myself.

8:01 pm

periwinkle

I have been playing for 7 years too!

8:01 pm

rururocks

jesus was around when peri started playing

8:01 pm

dianedecoder

I used to love Text Twist, and then every site closed down their chat feature, and some wanted you to pay for it. I miss all the friends from Game house, but most of us connected in other places.

8:02 pm

periwinkle

hah ha ruru, there are others who have been playing longer

8:02 pm

uusue2

lol, ruru! and WHAT is that picture???

8:02 pm

sprite

oh I start chatting as soon as I start playing. I ignore clues at first. I only turn off chat when somebody is listing word after word and letter after letter.

8:02 pm

MollyL

Diane! I loved Text Twist too. Never chatted there though.

8:02 pm

sprite

lol yes periwinkle, we are the core group!

8:02 pm

periwinkle

indeed, sprite

8:03 pm

dianedecoder

my top score was 30 million and I used to challenge myself there too... I loved to post a 1,111,110 game, just for kicks.

8:03 pm

MollyL

I don't mind if someone asks for a clue, because then I can dodge out of chat if I don't have the word. But sometimes, people just start throwing out clues when no one has asked for them. That's why I don't bring up chat until I have met my own challenges.

8:04 pm

crosshair

babble is my safe place.the place to come when sleep is not to be had,to share a concern,a place to ask for advice,a place to while away the hours when i need a distraction from the daily grind of life,a place to reorient myself and reset my priorities...

8:04 pm

sprite

hi ruru :)

8:04 pm

uusue2

8:07 pm
