3:58 am

3:58 am

sprite

*grin* So through the years we have made up our own Babble dictionary.

4:03 am

rbud

nice Egyptian comforter I got from my sister, black with cream colored brocade roses all over it. the hole's about dead center, going to work up a medallion sort of thing to disguise it. think it will still be pretty, I hope.

4:04 am

4:04 am

hi mimi, it's pretty quiet in here atm

12:47 pm

Hi, Kate! I'll only be here a minute myself. But will be back tonight. How are you?

12:48 pm

MimiCat

Great clues, btw, Kate.

12:50 pm

TraderKate

i'm okay, a bit tired... how about you - are you all turkeyed and shopped out yet?

12:51 pm

MimiCat

Not doing either this year. Made myself a casserole on Thanksgiving that was delicious.

12:53 pm

MimiCat

Changing the first letter of your horse's feet clue----a type of stereo speaker + pl.

12:53 pm

TraderKate

very sensible of you mimi, we all run arund like mad dogs for days/weeks for a meal... christmas is even worse i think we all need our heads examined lol

12:54 pm

i hear you there mimi, i'm so poor i can't afford to PAY attention <laughing at my own joke>

12:55 pm

MimiCat

LOL.

12:59 pm

TraderKate

hmmm... first time ever i jgot all the re words :))

1:01 pm

MimiCat

I only have one! Don't know how all of you get so many words. I'm lucky to get half on each grid. Good thing I'm not at all competitive and just doing this for fun---and the excellent company.

1:03 pm

TraderKate

that's the great thing about babblers - they are a really great bunch. you will improve at hunting the words with time mimi, a lot of them can be very strange indeed! and you can always go back in the chog record to scoop up more clues if no one is around to hint...you did know that you can see the chog from the time of the flip?

1:05 pm

MimiCat

I'm not familiar with a lot of the ins and outs of it yet, but not terribly ambitious about it either. I'm happy to get the words I can and just connect with everyone.

1:07 pm

TraderKate

it is a great way to keep up on babbler's news if you have the time-that way they don't have to answer the same questions over and over ...if you ever want to look, just click on the little icon on the right just ablve where you input into the chog

1:10 pm

MimiCat

Where do you access the chog?

1:12 pm

TraderKate

chog = chat log... what you are reading now are the most recent entries.... right next to the little boxes above (chatterbox, who's online, my friends) there are 2 more icons (hide/show chat field and there right -most one is the "view entire chat log" one - just click on it

1:13 pm

snags

like your attitude mimi. I used to look for words forever until I just gave up and enjoyed what I found without all the hassle..........

1:14 pm

MimiCat

OK---I know about that then. Thanks, Kate!

Glad I'm not the only underachiever here, snags!!

Hi Bich

1:43 pm

TraderKate

hi bichon

1:44 pm

bichon

yes, the other day it was merde

1:45 pm

Riverdance

bichon - what happened to that pup in your icon

1:45 pm

Riverdance

and are you travelling again?

1:46 pm

bichon

He's my rescue, Watson. A Shih Tzu. Found as a stray in very poor condition, lose to death. He's plumping up nicely, but he has other isses, like a torn Achilles Tendon.

1:46 pm

bichon

I won't be traveling to CA until the end of next month

1:46 pm

bichon

*close to death

1:47 pm

bichon

*issues

1:47 pm

TraderKate

poor pup! can he have surgery for the tendon?

1:47 pm

Riverdance

poor baby - I am sure he is getting better under your care - how are yours holding up having a new baby in the house?

1:47 pm

Riverdance

I can read right through typoneze bichon

1:47 pm

Riverdance

now you are back in the states I see

1:48 pm

bichon

He is so sweet. Hubby and I cuddle him all the time.

1:48 pm

Riverdance

are you going to keep him?

1:48 pm

bichon

Okay, River, I was not in Israel. Just had that for solidarity during the rocket attacks

1:49 pm

Riverdance

Did they have to shave him due to some skin infection? Or did he just lose his hair because of health issues

1:49 pm

bichon

No, not keeping him. Just fostering him for Small Paws Rescue. We got Marco and Polo from them. When his medical issues are settled, they will be placing him in a forever home

1:49 pm

Riverdance

I am sure you will miss him

1:50 pm

bichon

Very much so. Anyone who gets him will be so lucky

1:52 pm

bichon

His hair was so matted and it covered his eyes. He was running around on 3 legs, blind

1:59 pm

Riverdance

Poor baby, I wish I could take him now but my baby would not like that. Maybe next year when Tori leaves me I will get another.

2:00 pm

bichon

There's lots of great rescue dogs out there.

2:01 pm

Riverdance

I have always had big dogs but I was thinking of maybe getting a small dog once I am alone so we can cuddle. We have never allowed our big dogs on the furniture but little ones are OK

2:02 pm

bichon

Why will you be alone. Is your youngest going off to college?

2:02 pm

bichon

We've only had Bichons

2:04 pm

Riverdance

my husband is divorcing me....I will still have my son but he will be going back and forth one week on and one week off between us. My husband is taking our dog as she is a hunter and does really need to run and hunt with him. It will break my heart when he does but I am sure I will see her often. He will be building a house only 1/4 mile from mine so I am sure she will keep coming home to me and he will be chasing her down.

2:04 pm

bichon

Wow! Too bad River.

2:05 pm

Riverdance

Keith is a sophomore in high school this year so still has 2 year left after this one. My daughter is away at college now as a sophomore

2:05 pm

Riverdance

Thanks bichon...it did come as a bit of a surprise but we are working through it.....I hope it continues to be amicable for the kids sake.

2:06 pm

bichon

A companion dog sounds like a great idea. Bichons need human contact most of all

2:06 pm

Riverdance

Our last 2 dogs have been labs and they are awesome also requiring human contact.

2:07 pm

bichon

Marco and Polo curl up net to us when they are asleep

2:07 pm

Riverdance

Tori usually lays at my feet wherever I am

2:09 pm

Riverdance

I should get back to work...50 minutes left to go...have a good night everyone

2:09 pm

bichon

I need to get some work done here. Later River

2:09 pm

Riverdance

I give up on the grid leaving 10 - I dont list anymore - just do what I can get on my own or with clues.

2:09 pm

6:08 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hi sue, how's everyone doing at your place?

6:09 pm

uusue2

ok, gwen, I found out that my blood pressure is really high (probably due to stress and anxiety) so I need to keep an eye on it. Frank is gradually getting stronger.

6:10 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

good to hear about Frank, and hope they fix you up soon

6:11 pm

MollyL

Sue, did they put you on medication?

6:11 pm

uusue2

I think I just need to relax and rest more

6:11 pm

o-o

Not so surprising with what you are enduring. More walks.

6:11 pm

uusue2

I'm already on medication, molly, they want me to check tomorrow and if it's still high I can take extra (I'm on a pretty low dose)

6:12 pm

uusue2

the dog would certainly vote yes on more walks :-)

6:12 pm

MollyL

Ah, very good. That plus toning things down a notch should probably fix you right up.

6:13 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hope babble is not stressing you out too much!

6:13 pm

uusue2

I hope so. I will keep an eye on it.

6:13 pm

uusue2

no, babble relaxes me!

6:15 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yepper, me too 8-)

6:18 pm

uusue2

just looking at WebMD, I'm surprised (but glad) they let me go home. I will keep a CLOSE eye on it.

6:19 pm

uusue2

actually I take it back, I am looking at heart.org

6:20 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

well, i'm off, hope you gets better soon *poink*

6:20 pm

uusue2

bye gwen!

6:23 pm

o-o

I have found walking is better than any pill ... I try to do a meditation while walking that banishes my concerns and focuses on the sounds, colors and beauty I encounter

6:24 pm

uusue2

that sounds good, BR. I will try that as I walk the dog.

6:34 pm

o-o

Dust in the wind ....

6:36 pm

uusue2

ok, time to feed the animals and walk said dog. see you later!

6:38 pm

dianedecoder

Jillyjill

uusue2

9:02 pm

Jillyjill

Well, then you need to come see them, I am sure we can find somewhere to meet that is not a coffee shop... ;-P

9:03 pm

rururocks

9:04 pm

MollyL

Hi, how are you doing? Oh, that good, huh?

Jillyjill

I would tend to agree, I actually was surprised..didn't think the nudity was going on there anymore...

9:25 pm

Uneaixoise

Uneaixoise

9:27 pm

crosshair

do you know how incredebly hard it is to get a permit to carry and own a hand gun here?? you have to jump through flaming hoops..perhaps it is for the best.most of us northern boys would rather a rifle with a nice scope to take the handgun boys out at a 1/4 mile anyways:)

9:27 pm

Uneaixoise

casa Une is weapon-free but my neighbor across the street has told me numerous times about his arsenal -- assures me I can call any time of day or night for assistance in case of burglary, trespass, etc. . . . jeezomeez

9:28 pm

crosshair

do not own one une,but get him to take you to the range and teach you to use one in safe monitored conditions

9:28 pm

crosshair

9:29 pm

rururocks

Une to neighbor : Is that a 45 magnum in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

9:29 pm

Uneaixoise

i actually learned to shoot a .22 when I was a kid at camp in Texas :-)

9:29 pm

Uneaixoise

paper targets only!!

9:29 pm

crosshair

too much learn with a 9mm for a handgun and a 270 with a scope for rifle training

9:30 pm

crosshair

a 45 is overkill

9:30 pm

crosshair

a 45 is like buying a hummer in case you think you may have to drive in the mud some day

9:31 pm

Hi there, Montana Jill!!!

10:01 pm

Jillyjill

:D

10:03 pm

MimiCat

While waiting for inspiration to provide me with more words earlier today, I started daydreaming a bit. I was thinking wouldn't it be weird if no one was really from where they say they're from.....my mind plays strange and wonderful tricks on me....mostly strange.

10:04 pm

Jillyjill

All I dream of these days is being back in Hawaii..

10:04 pm

MimiCat

I'd just like to visit there once!! NOW!!!

10:05 pm

Jillyjill

It was really beautiful! Hope to get there again someday..

10:06 pm

crosshair

what the heck is a in and out burger?

10:06 pm

MimiCat

Montana is beautiful and so is Arizona but I lived in California in Marina Del Rey before moving here and still miss the ocean.

10:06 pm

MimiCat

It's a burger franchise, crossy, from California, I think.

10:07 pm

Jillyjill

It's a chain in CA mainly...really great burgers

10:07 pm

bleugirl2

ce 5 and 6?

10:07 pm

crosshair

sounds nasty do you get a cigarette after you eat one?

10:07 pm

Jillyjill

Yes Mimi, I live in CA to, and you never quite get over the ocean...

10:07 pm

MimiCat

No, just heartburn.

10:08 pm

crosshair

ahh

10:08 pm

MimiCat

If I could choose, I'd pick Carmel---but I'll never be that rich.

10:08 pm

Jillyjill

10:09 pm

crosshair

10:09 pm

bleugirl2

thanks jilly

10:09 pm

Jillyjill

Funny you should mention Carmel, when we were in Kona we went on their Coffee and Art Stroll in this old village. Really reminded me of Carmel...

10:10 pm

crosshair

and love the "crawfish" lol

10:10 pm

MollyL

Popeye's is southern based, biscuits are southern based.

10:11 pm

crosshair

cray fish are what we see in freshwater streams and you would need 100 of them to make a meal

10:11 pm

MimiCat

Heaven to me, Jilly. Well, at least my ashes will be there some day!! (No consolation, really.)

10:12 pm

MimiCat

Crossy, In and Out Burger is called that due to the fast service---so in that regard perhaps it is a lot like (some) sex.

10:12 pm

crosshair

lol

10:12 pm

MollyL

Well, crawfish are bigger than shrimp and you don't need 100 shrimp to make a meal.

10:13 pm

bleugirl2

crosshair

10:15 pm

crosshair

i have eaten crayfish as part of a survival course,but do not recommend it for long term munchies

10:15 pm

MimiCat

Could never get behind that whole "sucking out the head" of the crawfish thing.

10:16 pm

crosshair

sucking out the head?

10:16 pm

crosshair

10:16 pm

bleugirl2
