72 Temple Owl

oh heck, i am watching the today show. about germs in baby nurseries. i mean we all lived, is more than normal cleanliness required? I don't remember my nother cleaning out my baby borhter;s room with CN .

9:14 am

vanillaslice

I feel reenergised now that I have the biggies so now for the last 30

9:15 am

72 Temple Owl

i think we are becoming germophobes.

9:15 am

uusue2

people get way too scared about "germs", I think; there are some dangerous ones but our environment is full of all kinds

9:15 am

vanillaslice

look what kids stick into their mouths

9:16 am

72 Temple Owl

hand washing is the most important. that helps with everything else.

9:16 am

uusue2

I remember chatting with some moms when I had a new baby; one of them asked when to stop sterilizing the baby's bottles. The other one said she stopped when she saw the kid eating dirt out of the garden.

9:16 am

vanillaslice

we overdo it and lose immunity

9:16 am

MollyL

That's pretty funny Sue : )

9:16 am

hurshy

i think the increase of toxins in the environment isn't helped by cleaning, it's stuff in the water and whatnot.

9:16 am

72 Temple Owl

it seems all designed to sell product

9:16 am

bichon

I don't think bottles get sterilized these days.

9:17 am

uusue2

well, I nursed him, so never sterilized anything

9:17 am

72 Temple Owl

i just cleaned and sterilized the kitchen sink. i boiled water and poured it on after scrubbing. no chemicals required.

9:17 am

bichon

when I had my son in '73 my Mom was livid when I didn't sterilize his bottles

9:18 am

MollyL

I use a steam cleaner

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

9:20 am

72 Temple Owl

it is interesting how things change over the years.

9:21 am

kje

i think kids should be exposed to germs - builds up their immune system

9:21 am

hurshy

11:44 am

MollyL

I've heard they don't recommend them anymore. I always had Ipecac around when my kids were little.

11:45 am

Aloyisius

that was the one.. but I checked with poison control first, like when one of them crawled over to the diesel tank and slurped up some that had dripped into a cup below the valve.. no em6 in that case..

11:46 am

Aloyisius

aspiration pneumonia could result

Good Afternoon, Everybody! How are you all doing today? It's supposedly 40 degrees here today; but there is a cold strong "breeze" that cuts me to the bone today. DH injured the garage soffit and fascia last evening and I'm trying to fix it; but my hands get too cold and stiff for me to work very long at it.

Oh, dear. I meant to say that if I can make it looka bit better we can fix it next spring when the weather will be nicer.

2:14 pm

lynxxx

go7 Mr Pyle is feeling sick or **l

2:15 pm

Nef

DH will have his knee surgery tomorrow. I hope and pray that his cognition will improve once he isn't hurting so much (he's having torn meniscus removed; it's an out-pt. procedure and *I* don't consider it too big of a deal since I've had both knees worked on for that in the past. But it does hurt;

2:16 pm

Nef

thanks, lynxxx

2:16 pm

lynxxx

Hope it all goes as you expect Nef

2:16 pm

Nef

here

2:17 pm

MollyL

I hope everything goes well for him Nef.

2:17 pm

Nef

OOPS! Sorry, wrong box again!

2:18 pm

Nef

Thanks, Molly. I'm just mad that he doesn't know he's hurting till I realize it! His whole family has a very high pain threshold and it makes it tough to know what's going on

2:21 pm

lynxxx

still that can be a blessing in so many instances (high pain threshold)

2:23 pm

Nef

yes, but when coupled with some of his other problems (M.S., neuropathy, and diabetes, for instance) it does become a curse.

2:23 pm

lynxxx

oh I understand that completely

2:23 pm

lynxxx

There are some doozy of words here today

2:24 pm

Nef

oh, well. I'm "stuck" with him in spite of my complaints! :-)

2:24 pm

lynxxx

doozies?

2:24 pm

Nef

there are indeed, lynxxx

2:30 pm

uusue2

hi nef and lynxxx! Cold and windy here too, nef!

2:31 pm

uusue2

and good luck to your hubby on his surgery tomorrow! knees are messy, complicated things :-(

2:32 pm

Nef

we don't have any snow yet! That is really sad (last year we had about 17 inches of snow by now. That was too much; but this is too little

2:32 pm

lynxxx

Morning Sue from a sunny 29 down here

2:33 pm

uusue2

no snow yet here either, nef, although we had an inch of rain yesterday

2:33 pm

Nef

they are indeed, sue. But they are fixable; so looking forward to that

2:33 pm

MollyL

*Stomps foot* No such thing as "too little snow"

2:34 pm

Nef

I heard that Texas is finally getting rain! That's good news

2:34 pm

Nef

Molly, there is if you live in Minnesota!

2:34 pm

uusue2

and sunny would be nice, lynxxx!

2:35 pm

MollyL

I could never see another flake in my life and be a happy person

2:35 pm

uusue2

I read that some of the Swiss ski areas finally got some snow last week - they were really hurting

2:35 pm

lynxxx

Bye all...going to get an early start to my day

2:35 pm

uusue2

bye, lynxxx!

2:37 pm

Nef

Bye lynxxx! HAGD!

2:37 pm

MollyL

Sue, you probably got those em words that often pertain to professors right away.

2:40 pm

uusue2

I only have two em words, molly, one which is really an acronym (and is in the physics babblets) and one which makes you throw up. Not sure which ones often pertain to professors :-)

2:40 pm

uusue2

(but then I have just started)

2:41 pm

uusue2

ah, now I have another one that should describe me after I retire

2:42 pm

MollyL

There is another one too, Sue. Add another vowel.

2:42 pm

uusue2

ah yes, several retired female professors :-)

2:43 pm

MollyL

A whole posse of them. : )

2:45 pm

uusue2

I have found considerable confusion between the various Latin endings among people who really should know better - alumnus, alumna, alumni, alumnae - my all-female undergraduate college has the last of those

2:45 pm

uusue2

(and they use it properly, too!)

2:46 pm

uusue2

but I can't tell you how many new graduates have proudly told me "Now I am an alumni!".

2:46 pm

uusue2

*sigh*

2:46 pm

MollyL

Now, I have alumnated.

2:46 pm

uusue2

ooh, finally got the lone n, now just missing the middle e...

2:47 pm

uusue2

incidentally, I will be lecturing about em4/8 this spring...

2:54 pm

firefly779

tis a bird, uusue2

2:54 pm

firefly779

your middle E

2:55 pm

Nef

thank you firefly!

2:55 pm

MollyL

Will you be talking about LOST Sue? I know, you probably didn't watch it.

2:56 pm

MollyL

Anyway em4 were a part of the story.

2:56 pm

firefly779

yw Nef :)

2:57 pm

Nef

I'd love to hear your lectures, sue. You sound as though you are passionate about your fireld and would be an interesting lecturer

2:59 pm

Nef

BBS; gotta go try fixing the soffit again (hands are nice and warm now)

3:00 pm

uusue2

thanks, firefly! and good luck, nef!

3:01 pm

uusue2

ah, no, Molly, I watched an episode or two of Lost (including the last one, since there was such a fuss) but that was about it.

3:34 pm

3:36 pm

3:37 pm

3:38 pm

periwinkle

I have fo8, and li8

3:39 pm

Nef

I've been using me 5 words on or in the longer words (with mixed results)

3:39 pm

periwinkle

revolting monkeys does not sound good

3:43 pm

Nef

very true, peri. That makes mev think of revolting stomachs for some reason...

3:49 pm

Jacula

os9/60 is a tiresome word to find. In fact, it's an anagram of the 2nd and 3rd words of this post. Hope that helps!:-)

3:50 pm

Nef

nice clue, Jac

3:50 pm

Jacula

Thanks, Nef.

3:51 pm

Nef

No. I tried it earlier. LOL

3:52 pm

3:52 pm

Jacula

y/w, mixi

3:53 pm

it is a word in my former work place though. as in "what's the crit?"

3:54 pm

Jacula

Nef - Enable doesn't even know about emails and internet, yet! LOL

3:56 pm

suefrad625

hi again, cant get the os, what 2 words are you talking about?

3:57 pm

Jacula

sue - the 2nd and 3rd word of the post I gave the clue in.

3:58 pm

Nef

os 9 isn't 2 separate words but it's an anagram

4:07 pm

uusue2

very clever, got it, thanks! (with the help of an online anagram solver...)

4:09 pm

Nef

I'm sorry, I just now thought of a clue for that word.

4:10 pm

Nef

os + cons. + you eat at a caf*****

4:12 pm

foamflower

Hi, folks -- I need help with me last three. Can anyone help with the em 7 and 8?

4:14 pm

foamflower

How aout the ce7?

4:15 pm

ursh

sorry foam - dont have any of them

4:15 pm

Nef

em 7/32 retired female professor (I think) and em8 is the latin pl of that

4:16 pm

foamflower

Thanks, Nef! That did it! Now for that ce7...

4:16 pm

foamflower

In the meantime, anyone need other clues?

4:16 pm

Nef

ce7/36 is sidewalk + 1st vowel

4:17 pm

Nef

I like your icon, BTW. What are those flowers?

4:17 pm

foamflower

Thanks again, Nef! Thought I had tried all that sort of possibility, but obviously missed that.

4:17 pm

Nef

yvw! :-)

4:18 pm

foamflower

4:19 pm

foamflower

So no one else is seeking a clue? If not, I'm off to a garden club party.

4:20 pm

foamflower

good luck to all of you!

4:20 pm

Nef

Woo, Hoo! Approaching half way now! And my working outside is over for the day. My hands have had it: soreand swollen form being cold

4:20 pm

Nef

YAY, foamflower! WTG!!!!

4:22 pm

hootowl

Nef - they are foamflowers :D

4:23 pm

hootowl

hi - been a while

4:23 pm

hootowl

and thanks for the os

4:23 pm

Nef

thanks, hoot! I've never heard of them before. And where have you been, hoot?

4:24 pm

hootowl

Busy mostly

4:24 pm

hootowl

Do the grid as I can but not talking much

4:25 pm

hootowl

don't you have gloves???

4:25 pm

Nef

I wish I could stay out of chat more often. I'd probably finish more grids if I did! ;-)

4:26 pm

hootowl

you have to learn to ignore it

4:27 pm

Nef

I do, hoot, but they don't fit over the brace I need for my arthritc hands; and I'm trying to fix the soffit that my DH hit last night with a truck so the gloves I do have that fit over the braces would get ruined

4:27 pm

hootowl

But I had to tell you what the flowers were

4:27 pm

MollyL

Nef, seriously, you need to use gloves when you work in cold temperatures.

4:28 pm

hootowl

well that is def a pain! Hi Moll

4:28 pm

Nef

<hangs head in shame> Yes, Molly.

4:28 pm

hootowl

Why can't he fix what he broke?

4:29 pm

Nef

it's been 40 degrres F here. That shouldn't be "Cold". It's the wind that makes it colder

4:30 pm

hootowl

Some vaseline rubbed , might help

4:30 pm

hootowl

rubbed in

4:30 pm

hootowl

then rubber gloves

4:31 pm

Nef

he has MS, no balance, no feeling in his feet and a bum knee that will be operated on tomorrow. He used poor judgement thinking he could drive last night

4:31 pm

Nef

he also has no patience with tedious work or fine tuning; so it would end up worse than when I started

4:32 pm

hootowl

aah - sorry. Isn't there a neighbor kid that could help?

4:32 pm

Nef

you know, hoot, that might work! I could try that under the braces even (maybe some Ben Gay or icy hot cream might work)

4:33 pm

hootowl

I think anything that covers the pores. Just don't make it so thick it's slippery

4:33 pm

MollyL

A good moisturizer under cotton gloves while you sleep will do wonders for your hands.

4:35 pm

Nef

that I've done before, Molly. But it doesn't help the arthritis

4:36 pm

Nef

vaseline with the cotton gloves overnight really helps dry cracked cuticles. You have new hands the next day

4:39 pm

hootowl

terrae

4:40 pm

hootowl

nuts - off again - bbl

4:40 pm

Nef

thanks, hoot! good clue! :-)

4:42 pm

Someone here has recommended the cream with emu oil? in it for arthritis.

5:33 pm

majmom - old word for gentility or high birth. Ends in a 4-letter food item popular in China.

5:33 pm

Jacula

Clue was for ge8.55, btw.

5:34 pm

Jacula

There's a pretty op4 clue for ge6/24 in that clue as well.

5:35 pm

MollyL

Kind of close to a PB violation there Jac. But I will never tell on my twinner. : )

5:36 pm

Jacula

uusue, y/w.

5:43 pm

uusue2

and hi, jac! :-)

5:44 pm

Jacula

I'll be in an out of the chog for a while now; I'm trying to write a Christmas newsletter, even though my son keeps interrupting me(!) It's so ne4 to last posting time now, that I'm going to have to do a general letter with personal notes added, rather than individual letters, since I have 24 cards that need letters to go in with them.

5:45 pm

uusue2

good luck with that, jac! I haven't sent out cards in decades...

5:46 pm

MollyL

It's nice that you still do Christmas letters Jac. They are almost a thing of the past. People barely send cards anymore. Which makes me sad. It was the one time of year that you got happy mail (not bills).

5:48 pm

Jacula

I still get lots of cards at Christmas with lovely letters and photos in them. Not so many real (snail mail) letters the rest of the year round, though.

5:54 pm

MollyL

I get tired of the mentality that goes "I'm just too busy". Really? Too busy for what? To send a nice holiday greeting to people you care about? I don't get that at all.

5:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I'm too busy babbling.

5:58 pm

uusue2

hi, kap!

5:59 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hi y'all.

6:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I'm being Southern- do you like it?

6:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Now I'm being British.

6:01 pm

uusue2

how can i tell?

6:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Such a gift for mimicry.

6:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Subtle. I am switching to Australian.

6:04 pm

uusue2

ah - I have trouble distinguishing Australian from South African.

6:04 pm

Jacula

Hi Kap - LOL.

6:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

See how I do it.

6:04 pm

Jacula

uusue - it's the New Zealanders that sound sort of South African, not the Aussies.

6:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hi Jac. I could pass for a native, huh?

6:05 pm

uusue2

See? I told you I had trouble.

6:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Can you tell Czech from Rumanian?

6:06 pm

Jacula

Gosh, Kap, old bean, I am bowled over by your authenticity.:-)

6:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Henry Higgins could!

6:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

She is royalty! A Hungarian princess!

6:07 pm

Jacula

My daughter probably can, Kap, since she lives in Romania (Brasov) at present.

6:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Cheerio! Why can't the English teach their children how to speak?

6:07 pm

Jacula

My sis-in-law is Romanian.

6:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Owwwwwwwwwwwwww. I've grown accustomed to her face!

6:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I hve often walked down this street before.

6:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I think she's got it!

6:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have had a long day- nothing like a good Rogers and Hammerstein to take the edge off.

6:09 pm

Jacula

'Ow jer meen like, Kap? The kids can speek, y'now like. Man, yo is SO judgementative! ROFLOL

6:09 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It's from My Fair Lady.

6:10 pm

Jacula

Ah! Do you know (I'm sure it's obvious), that is one musical I have never seen.

6:10 pm

Uneaixoise

GASP!!!

6:11 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, it is the best. So is the Leslie Howard/Wendy Hiller movie Pygmalion. It's perfect, except you keep waaiting for them to sing.

6:11 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Jac, treat yourself.

6:11 pm

Jacula

Sorry Une!

6:11 pm

Uneaixoise

:-D

6:11 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Sppeaking of, what has ever happened to Movieman?

6:12 pm

Uneaixoise

not around much . . .

6:12 pm

Kaplan the Magne

rent the Pygmalion one firsst, so you don't get spoiled by the music. Just a suggestion.

6:13 pm

Jacula

Kap, I will but not tonight. I have already quaffed 2 glasses of vino, almost without noticing it, whilst I have been switching from my letter to Babble and from Babble to FB to play a game with Peri. If I do that with my 3rd and final glass, I'll be writing more rubbish than I normally do!

6:13 pm

Jacula

Kap - I've seen Pygmalion.

6:14 pm

MollyL

I've seen Movieman around. Hi Lil.

6:14 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Enjoy. I could use a drink myself. Thank goodness I am not an alcoholic, so I can drink.

6:14 pm

The one with Leslie Ho0ward? It's brilliant.

MOlasses cookies are done, snickerdoodles are cooling, and peanut butter cookies are in the oven

6:19 pm

6:19 pm

lil*monkey

bring milk

6:19 pm

MollyL

*Grabs jug of milk at 7-11*

6:20 pm

Nef

hi again. Okay, I have a really dumb question: what are snickerdoodles?

6:20 pm

lil*monkey

Get ready for a sugar buzz like you've never experienced before

6:20 pm

lil*monkey

Snickerdoodles are cinnamon-sugar cookies

6:20 pm

MollyL

They are sugar cookies with cinnamon Nef.

6:21 pm

lil*monkey

The dough is rolled into balls, roll the balls in cinnamon sugar, then bake. They flatten out while they bake and they are sort of soft, sort of crispy.

6:21 pm

redturtlehead

Yum, I like this conversation! Hello all!

6:22 pm

lil*monkey

BRB, have to check on the peanut butter cookies

6:22 pm

Nef

I'd never heard of them before seeing a TV ad for the USPS that the guy asks "do I smell snickerdoodles?" and I thought that it was some sort of joke

6:22 pm

Nef

now that sounds like something that we should try, lil*

6:23 pm

Nef

hi red! How was your race?

6:24 pm

redturtlehead

It was good Nef, I got first in my age group. though it turned out to be a bit of a dangerous night run on a trail...wont be doing that again!

6:24 pm

redturtlehead

Nef you shoudl make snicker doodles or n better, have monkey send you some!

6:25 pm

redturtlehead

COudl someone check my icon?

6:27 pm

Nef

I see it, red. It's a person lighting candles, right?

6:28 pm

Nef

a night run on a tr5/10 sounds downright dangerous for you!

6:30 pm

MollyL

Very nice Christmas icon, Red.

6:38 pm

lil*monkey

OK cookies are all done now, finally I can rest

6:38 pm

lil*monkey

Beautiful icon, red

6:41 pm

6:52 pm

MollyL

Love the monkey Christmas icon : )

6:52 pm

lil*monkey

6:53 pm

6:56 pm

MollyL

*Waves at silent, lurking Ru*

6:57 pm

Jacula

I'm back. All the notes done for my Christmas letter. Now I I have to do is write it. No windows op4 he4, other than the one in the office, where I am sitting; it's bloody freezing outside!

6:58 pm

Jacula

*all I have to do. I meant to type.

6:58 pm

MollyL

I open a window even when it's cold. I am a fresh air freak.

6:59 pm

Nef

no wonder you don't want snow, Molly

6:59 pm

MollyL

*Goes to the PB for op4...looks for cookies*

6:59 pm

Jacula

Molly - yes, our bedroom window is always op4.

6:59 pm

gramma

My back is spasming so badly, I took a muscle relaxant, a pain pill and now wine! It still sucks. Someone shoot me, please.

7:00 pm

Jacula

I meant no windows downstairs, where I am, I guess. LOL

7:00 pm

Nef

try icing it for 20 minutes, gramma

7:00 pm

Jacula

gramma - you need someone to walk gently on your back, not someone to shoot you, though I do know how pain can make you feel that way!

7:00 pm

gramma

Brilliant! bbl

7:01 pm

8:52 pm

Minveryork

I re6/24 ever starting this puzzle.I usually do end up reg5/14ting starting big grids because I never finish the en 6/18 grid. I am no way ne 4/4 fireworks and I am not going to get any ne 6/18, so he 4/5 is a story of clues. My hubby and I often have arguments in our ho 4/6. When I en 5/10ed marriage, I did not realize the frustration it would en 6/18. Hubby and I cannot agr4/6 on too many things. We get ir5/10 with each other so quickly. Hubby and I have so much pe4/5 up anger inside of us. It is te 4/4ing us apart. I am so ti 4/4d of all the fighting. Our fights have ea5/10 away at me my me5/12l state is not great. Most days I sit around and mo4/6 over my misery. I have tried to op 4/5 up to husband about how I feel,however,he does not want to listen.I've tried to it7/28 to my husband the importance of me 4/5ing w/a marriage counselor but he wants no part of that. I think if we we 4/8 to a marriage counselor it may help.I wish we could just me 5/16 together and be happy again. I think that it would be ne4/4 if we could do that.But if my state of misery continues, I'll have no choice but to leave him & go re4/4 an apartment.My fe4/7 wants computer. He is not a ge4/6leman when it comes to the laptop.I better give the computer to him. Don't want to have to experience his er7/32 behavior.Now I am going to get up on my fe4/7 and go watch "My Name is Ea4/4" I hope you found so4/5 more words. I will high ta 4/4 it back he 4/5 tomorrow when I get ho4/6 from work
