the other night it was such a dry heat, there was hardly any water in the reservoir of the aircon.

1:53 am

1:56 am

dcseain

LOL rose

1:56 am

VolleymomDee

dc, I missed what happened to you... do you mind sharing?

1:57 am

dcseain

i had a teeth-chattering fever, and tore a left calf muscle thrashing in my sleep kicking off the blankets and quilt. re-injury from last August.

1:58 am

VolleymomDee

so are you in a walking cast?

1:58 am

rururocks

wow

1:58 am

dcseain

now i'm bopping around to PT and specialists to make sure it heals well. no, that's not a cast injury.

1:59 am

dcseain

was walking with a cane, but have switched to one of my hiking sticks since i'm getting better.

1:59 am

VolleymomDee

Is surgery in your future, or does this just take a long time to heal?

1:59 am

dcseain

long time to heal.

1:59 am

rururocks

sounds dangerous for your bedmate DC

1:59 am

dcseain

i lack that, so not an issue, and the cat that night slept elsewhere.

2:00 am

rururocks

ah

2:00 am

dcseain

i should be back to normal March or early April.

2:00 am

VolleymomDee

so very sorry, but glad you are at least seeing progress now

2:00 am

rururocks

It wasn't the Kim Kardashian Flu was it?

2:00 am

dcseain

2:01 am

dcseain

Thursday, PT day, i awoke feeling as near to normal as i had in weeks.

2:01 am

rururocks

It's the only one I could think of that would make someone thrash around in bed

2:01 am

grannyrose

dcs, himself says normal is a setting on a washing machine....are you a talking washing machine? if so...i have something i want you to say to my washing machine...because we ain't communicating too well.

2:02 am

dcseain

I want to get back to dancing. I can't even do a simple waltz with this injury.

2:02 am

dcseain

i normally walk 12-30 miles/wk. I had 3 weeks i could barely walk at all.

2:02 am

rururocks

ouch.. sorry DC

2:03 am

dcseain

Trying very hard this time to have it heal right.

2:03 am

VolleymomDee

so very sorry, dc, had / has to be frustrating

2:03 am

dcseain

This time hurt a lot more than last time, which is why i went for medical treatment this time, kindly my motheris paying for that.

2:04 am

dcseain

we all have our things that frustrate us medically, and mine happily i will recover from with full functionallity, Many are not so lucky.

2:05 am

hey ruby *hug* Nice to be here during your stolen half hour

4:22 am

rubyfoo

and I'm glad you're here. How are you doing in all this cold? And Tim, any improvements?

4:23 am

sprite

am doing ok, am dressing in layers and only cold when I am very tired.
Tim is doing ok. Some flare-ups, but manageable. Last fight, which was big, with his sister... I could get him to 'feel' and not just 'think' and that was a big improvement.

4:24 am

sprite

how are you doing over there?

4:24 am

rubyfoo

me, to, with the layers. Like a little kid with his snowsuit and his arms sticking straight out

4:24 am

Hi Sweeties!

Well, maybe a lone Canadian?

4:27 am

Marmar

I am close to my normal 50% and have loads of work to do but just have to say howdy today.

4:27 am

rubyfoo

hi marmar, are you in Germany? I think we are all three in the same time zone. How rare!

4:28 am

rubyfoo

4:28 am

sprite

hiya swmbo!

4:28 am

Marmar

Ha! Hi swmbo! You're up late.

4:28 am

Marmar

Yes Ruby, just north of Frankfurt.

4:28 am

swmbo

Yes, working a night shift, which will end in half an hour. So just putting in time until then. :)

4:29 am

rubyfoo

I've spent a little time in Dusseldorf but otherwise just a little bit in Marburg

4:29 am

sprite

hehehe playing hooky hmmmm?

4:29 am

swmbo

What time is it in your mutual time zone?

4:29 am

rubyfoo

11:30AM

4:29 am

Marmar

Oh that is practical swmbo. Dcseain used to do that every night but that was ages ago.

4:29 am

sprite

it is 11.30 am here

4:30 am

Marmar

Ohhh, Marburg is "schÃ¶ne"!

4:30 am

swmbo

Not really playing hooky. I work in a nursing home. All the residents have been turned, changed etc. so I just have to wait for my replacements at 7 AM

4:31 am

rubyfoo

yes it is! I was there in '67 0r 8

4:31 am

rubyfoo

when I was still working, I used to play SimCity when things got slow, so don't feel bad, swimbo

4:31 am

Marmar

I'm actually 30 minutes away from there and we go there at any excuse. Great altstadt! Very little damag in the war therefore the integrity of the old buildings is still there.

4:31 am

sprite

ah ok, so really just filling the time until you can go home :) Did you have a quiet watch?

4:32 am

Marmar

I don't know if I could do night shift work for a long stretch, but it must have some nice advantages.

4:32 am

rubyfoo

and my son, who was 4 at the time, found a fragment of a decorative tile in the churchyard and he still treasures it, all these years later

4:32 am

swmbo

Very quiet. I am the charge nurse in a 68 bed home. All the residents are in stable health and so things are quiet (for now)

4:33 am

sprite

ah nice. Both for the residents and for you.

4:33 am

swmbo

Actually I am retired and only work very occasionally when they are short

4:34 am

Marmar

Ah ruby, that is so special. A friend of mine from England lives in York England and her son started collecting tile and porcelain fragments when he was little, he has a huge and beautiful collection now.

4:34 am

sprite

I see. They are lucky to have you, then.

4:36 am

rubyfoo

I collect blue and chite pottery and chines and, over the years, I've saved every broken piece (many) and this summer, God willing, I'll make a Gaudi-esque mosaic bench out of the pieces

4:36 am

Marmar

That's nice swmbo, I love your hobbies on your profile!

I have saved all my own broken porcelain dishes and hope to do a similar project soon.

4:37 am

sprite

bye ruby, that was a short half hour

4:38 am

swmbo

LOL I forgot about my hobbies. They are from Alice in Wonderland. I remember when I read it as a child being so delighted with the puns, my first experience of them. I love puns.

4:38 am

sprite

<--- loves puns too

4:39 am

swmbo

Well 20 minutes to blast off, must go count the narcotics. Nice chatting :)

4:39 am

Dylan had a headache yesterday, so I took him to the doctor. We concluded he has anxiety, which we will be working on. I then decided to have him get the flu mist vaccine. He woke up in teh middle of the night with aches, nausea and a fever. Poor kid. I feel so guilty.

7:27 am

Anniebrook

car. please dont feel guilty. You did the right thing.

7:27 am

rolin

please don't feel guilty car...lots of ppl of all ages have a reaction...think how much worse he would feel if he got the flu full blown..its been horrible here...knocking adults out for a week

7:27 am

smores

:( poor guy...but don't feel guilty

7:27 am

Anniebrook

How old is Dylan? I have a grandson named Dylan.

7:27 am

7:28 am

When i had mine a while back i reacted really badly and took over six weeks to recover. Treat with paracelamol and lots of fluids. Least that is what they told me.

7:28 am

car.eeyore

It has happened to me before, but not this time. I got the flu shot and had absolutely no reaction. I just wanted to keep him safe from this horrible flu :(

7:29 am

Anniebrook

car. you did the right thing

7:29 am

rolin

I have to have the jab...not a problem...wouldn't go into winter without it

7:29 am

zoozzoom

My sister had the flu this year..and like, Rolin said it knocks the stuffing out of you..i would much rather have the flu jab.

7:32 am

smores

I would definately check with his doctor, but don't feel guilty, I'm sure it will pass soon and is much better than getting the flu

I would be happy having breakfast food for all meals

8:59 am

bichon

why can't you pluralize the st 5/10 [something that keeps arteries open]?

9:00 am

Scrabbler

I think Enable sees it as a verb, not noun

9:01 am

BzznBea

What are there, 300 S words???

9:01 am

bichon

but even if it's a verb, you should be able to pluralize it. Oh, whatever

9:01 am

rubyfoo

I agree bichon, my husband has 3!

9:02 am

bichon

let's petition Enable

9:02 am

Scrabbler

I always try st5 + s anyway, and keep getting rejected

9:02 am

smores

hurshy and neil were chatting about that a few days ago bichon.

9:03 am

smores

apparently st5 wasn't in Enable at all, DrG recently added it but forgot about the pl

9:04 am

rubyfoo

I guess we'll have to wait til DrG gets older lol

9:04 am

bichon

how about Dr. G adds spam

9:05 am

If you are going to petition Enable or DrG, please ask if will add me as well :)

I got a call from the Children's Hospital yesterday about assuming medical care for an Amish baby going home. I am looking forward to meeting the family. They typically do not bring their kids to docs.

9:29 am

bichon

really Scrabs? Do they get them immunized

9:29 am

Scrabbler

No vaccines.

9:30 am

Scrabbler

There are numerous Amish people near our village, so we see them in town. They come in on their horse-pulled wagons and buggies. Nice people.

9:34 am

bichon

I guess they don't send their children to public schools?

9:35 am

Scrabbler

No, "home school" through grade 8. Marriage by late teens, then lots of babies. I remember when Harry Hershberger and wife had baby # 19.

9:36 am

bichon

Scrabbler

Most common surnames = Miller, Stetler, Yoder

For those who didn't see it earlier, here's the day's demotivator. Caption: Incompetence. Text: When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

housework can wait, this is a really nice grid

12:55 pm

Tx, dear----I have everything crossed!!

I'd love if Dr God could do an IP check.....

1:08 pm

MimiCat

What hoax? What did I miss?

1:09 pm

rururocks

I don't think he'd want to get involved soodle

1:09 pm

smores

hmmm...I'm lost too

1:10 pm

rururocks

in 7 help anyone?

1:11 pm

Soodle

Sorry guys, for having a non inclusive conversation. Frankly, it's just too distasteful to elaborate. Onwards and upwards!!! :-)

1:11 pm

MimiCat

Ruru, think "in place of..."

1:12 pm

rururocks

thank you mimi

1:12 pm

Soodle

In***** of giving you a clue, I'll let you figure it out

1:12 pm

MimiCat

I never get to clue....happy, happy!

1:12 pm

rururocks

1:14 pm

MimiCat

I said earlier that I think my new nickname should be "Queen of the Phantoms." It's like being possessed!

1:15 pm

MimiCat

So is pregnancy....if memory serves.

1:15 pm

rururocks

in twisty grids like this.. phantoms are normal

1:15 pm

Soodle

Bell,Book & Candle standing by for Mimi.....

1:15 pm

rururocks

these m's are tough

1:16 pm

MimiCat

Netflix now has "The West Wing"---all 7 seasons---for streaming so am watching a marathon via my Roku box....love it.

1:17 pm

smores

love Roku

1:17 pm

rururocks

1:17 pm

MimiCat

OMG, Soodle---you have no idea what you've said! I named one of my cats Pywakit after that!!

1:18 pm

smores

1:18 pm

MimiCat

Do you have one, smores?

1:18 pm

smores

wtg ruru

1:19 pm

smores

Yes it's great

1:19 pm

MimiCat

I also just found out you can get DirecTV through computer via USB port so no longer have to have line-of-sight for the dish.

1:19 pm

rururocks

i need a zillion s's

1:19 pm

smores

8 more S's

1:20 pm

smores

really? interesting, might check into that soon...got rid of cable a couple months ago

1:20 pm

MimiCat

Do you use Netflix with it? Seems like the only way to really get the most out of it. I cancelled cable a long time ago and don't miss it. But may be getting DirecTV again since they're a much better deal and have much better customer service.

1:21 pm

MimiCat

The package I want from DTV is 225 channels with Encore for about $45 a month.

1:21 pm

Soodle

Mimi, has Netflix got Downton Abbey yet? An absolute must-see! I got the box set of the first 2 series last Christmas, and spent an entire weekend wallowing in it!

1:23 pm

MimiCat

Yep, Soodle---watched it. Hoping the new ones will come soon. There are so many British detective shows I love and can get that way also.

1:24 pm

MimiCat

Smores, check out a series called "Life" and another called "Hack"----EXCEPTIONALLY WONDERFUL.

1:25 pm

smores

sorry, cat wanted out, I'm back

1:26 pm

smores

I will check it out Mimi

1:26 pm

Soodle

Also got box-set of Homeland. Awesome.

1:26 pm

MimiCat

I still miss not being able to see network shows the same night they're shown....hate waiting until Tues. to watch The Bachelor---yep, totally hooked on that show. I keep a sheet of the ones I like right away, the so-so and the ones I say NO to right away. Sad...but true. The thing is, I'm nearly always RIGHT.

1:27 pm

smores

lol...

1:27 pm

MimiCat

I love Homeland, Soodle! Have only seen the first season, though, from a free Amazon Prime trial. Hoping Netflix will get that one soon.

1:27 pm

dan2bit

te8 clue, anybody?

1:27 pm

smores

I watch a lot of shows the next day on the network websites

1:28 pm

rururocks

1:28 pm

rururocks

plural of Rafael Nadal's sport

1:28 pm

MimiCat

I have a picture of myself at age 25 that I showed to a friend the other day and she thought I looked like Claire Danes....what a compliment! Now, if I'm lucky, I might look like her grandmother!

1:28 pm

dan2bit

1st one - have the pl

1:28 pm

1:28 pm

MimiCat

We're twins, smores....me, too. Love The Good Wife, Nashville and Scandal especially.

1:29 pm

MimiCat

Doesn't ABC have the BEST website?

1:29 pm

Soodle

Dan, I'm loving the FB pics of your little girl. What a cutie!

1:29 pm

smores

1:29 pm

dan2bit

ty soodle :-)

1:29 pm

smores

yes, watch syfy and cw too

1:30 pm

MimiCat

I just wish I wasn't stuck at my computer to watch them....so limiting for the multi-tasking!

1:31 pm

Soodle

Anybody read Gillian Flynn's book Gone Girl?

1:32 pm

MimiCat

When in a certain mood, I watch Highlander episodes on Roku and wistfully dream of someday going to Scotland....oh, also Ireland, Soodle!

1:32 pm

MimiCat

No, Soodle---really good?

1:32 pm

rururocks

good time for a break.. s's to go

1:32 pm

smores

used to love Highlander...might have to rewatch

1:33 pm

Soodle

Oh Mimi, I dream of a Babble meet up here......

1:33 pm

MimiCat

I've read ALL 18 of the the Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum series and looking forward to getting #19. It's the most fun you can have reading.

1:33 pm

smores

lol...enjoy your break ruru....they'll be waiting :)

1:33 pm

MollyL

Hmm, I have an Amazon prime membership and Homeland isn't free.

1:34 pm

MimiCat

Smores, I used to tell my ex that if Adrian Paul ever showed up at the door I was GONE. <...memories of hormones...

1:34 pm

Soodle

Gone Girl is a good read. Very twisty-turny, but good.

1:34 pm

smores

lol...Mimi

1:34 pm

Soodle

((((Molly)))).

1:35 pm

MimiCat

It was for awhile, Molly. I did the trial version for a month but didn't like them nickel-and-diming me on paying for things.

1:36 pm

MimiCat

They want you to pay $1.99 to $3.99 for OLD movies....stupid.

1:36 pm

MollyL

I've had my membership for over a year and have been watching for Homeland to switch to free for Prime users. So far, it hasn't.

1:36 pm

smores

Amazon offered several free "season one" on trial to get you hooked

1:36 pm

MimiCat

Smores, I also have the DVD's in the mail from Netflix and have all seasons of Northern Exposure ordered....LOTS of discs!

1:36 pm

rururocks

*waves to Molly.. ms blank*

1:37 pm

MimiCat

That's right, smores---that's how I saw it. Good thing I'm patient because I'm not rich!

1:38 pm

smores

lol...Northern Exposure, another show I had forgotten about :)

1:39 pm

smores

yes, they got a lot of complaints because people thought the shows that were free with the trial would be free afterwards as well.

1:39 pm

MimiCat

Have you checked out all the concerts available, too, smores? Lots are streamed----Earth, Wind and Fire, The Doors, Janis Joplin, The Moody Blues...it goes on and on. The ones not streamed I have in my DVD queue...e.g., The Dixie Chicks, James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot......hey, who misses cable?!!!

1:40 pm

smores

I haven't really checked out many

1:40 pm

MimiCat

That's what is great about Netflix....you pay the monthly and get everything they have...no hidden charges. Pay attention, Amazon!

1:41 pm

Soodle

Arrgh. Janis Ian. Jesse. T'would bring tears from a stone. One of my all time faves....

1:42 pm

smores

Still gonna get Amazon Prime soon, have a lot that are free and the free shipping is nice

1:43 pm

MimiCat

Yep--I'm hoping to do so as well once the money is there....they do have some things not available elsewhere. Just think they could get rid of a $1.99 or $2.99 charge for an old movie....that's petty.

1:44 pm

MimiCat

What are we, smores, twin daughters of different mothers?!!!

1:44 pm

smores

agree..

1:44 pm

smores

lol

1:45 pm

MimiCat

Of course, don't know how I could be your twin OLDER sister....but the sentiment is the same!

1:45 pm

smores

well, I hate to go but I have to pick up smoresette, she stayed at a friends last night

1:45 pm

smores

LOL Mimi

1:45 pm

MimiCat

OK---put off the housework long enough....aargh! Hate housework more than having surgery....but, like surgery, necessary.

1:46 pm

MimiCat

We're even leaving at the same time----THIS IS GETTING SCARY!!! Hug to Smoresette. {{smores}}

6:01 pm

Lizlin

That's the problem with having taught English - too bound by rules!

6:15 pm

cosdem

7:30 pm

wht

I see that there are two ways for the earth to move in the grid. Se7,36 and er7,32.

7:30 pm

jmcnrick

nice to have money to spend when you travel

7:31 pm

cosdem

breakfast at the airport is now doable!

7:32 pm

jmcnrick

haha poor thing. . . maybe the hotel provides continental breakfast

7:33 pm

wht

It must be a sizeable sum on the card if you think you can afford food at an airport. :^)

7:33 pm

cosdem

7:36 pm

welki

7:40 pm

lynxxx

well I found 3 more se7s and 2 more se8 but stuill not your se7.36 wht. Hello all again

7:41 pm

welki

it's descriptive, lynn - might have measured 4.5 on the se***** scale

7:41 pm

wht

It describes an earthquake

7:42 pm

lynxxx

aah yes TY

7:42 pm

wht

I could use a clue for the se7,32

7:43 pm

lynxxx

'fraid not from me as not listed yet

7:43 pm

cosdem

ok computer found my reservation .. phew

7:43 pm

Deeha

well I m over half way and it is now nearly 2 am here - I'm only here because it is too cold to go into the kitchen and do a hot water bottle!!!

7:44 pm

welki

sounds like a spanish coin

7:45 pm

jmcnrick

se7 rhymes with Michaelangelo's famous chapel

7:45 pm

Deeha

sestine

7:46 pm

jmcnrick

ah that was the 7/28 my bad

7:46 pm

Deeha

Oh Blow - thats it I am too tired!! Good night folks good luck

7:46 pm

welki

*ding ding ding*

7:46 pm

welki

se 7/28 sounds like the chapel, 7/32 sounds like the spanish coin

7:46 pm

jmcnrick

se + cons. + singer **** Turner then plural?

7:47 pm

jmcnrick

nope that is 28 too

7:47 pm

welki

lol - hi jmc - can i pour you a tot?

7:47 pm

welki

(and with a little luck, maybe i can make my way south in feb - or you can come up to nj)

7:48 pm

jmcnrick

i think i need to crash. . .drove to asheville (9 hours because of the snow plows) yesterday and back (9 hours because a wreck required a helicoptor evacuation) today

7:48 pm

jmcnrick

bye deeha . . .stay warm

7:49 pm

welki

you must be pooped

7:49 pm

jmcnrick

haha the only reason I knew I wasn't in vermont is that there were way too many cars abandoned in snow banks

7:49 pm

jmcnrick

the snow really hit TN and southern VA where they have no clue. . . .

7:50 pm

welki

i used to pull cars out of ditches in vt when i was young - had an old jeep wagoneer

7:50 pm

jmcnrick

i probably saw close to 100 abandoned cars or tracks onthe median

7:50 pm

welki

but the kids must have loved the snow

7:50 pm

wht

Driving is snow is hard enough when the other drivers know what they are doing.

7:50 pm

jmcnrick

when my son had a jeep i bought him some rope and he would pull out ambulances for free but charge everyone else

7:51 pm

jmcnrick

yes welki there were several snow men in the median so I have to believe people got out of their cars while waiting for the whiteout to stop

7:51 pm

welki

here, in calgary, the roads are no where near as well kept as they are back east in ny and nj - and folks simply don't know how to drive to the conditions

7:51 pm

wht

Actually, driving in snow isn't so hard. It is stopping in snow that takes getting used to.

7:51 pm

jmcnrick

that is why i rarely drive in the snow wht. . . i know i am not that good

7:52 pm

welki

you have a good car for bad weather, jmc (albeit we sure made a bad choice when we bought them)

7:52 pm

jmcnrick

i can do it if i have to but if i do not have to I STAY PUT!

7:52 pm

welki

who knew saab would go belly up. still ticks me off.

7:52 pm

jmcnrick

btw it was interesting watching the helicopter land on the freeway and then later an ambulance drove under its spinning propellar. . .

7:53 pm

jmcnrick

i have a good car that is literally irreplaceable :-((((

7:53 pm

welki

egads - interesting, but scary!

7:53 pm

wht

ty welki. I finally figured out what coin you were talking about.

7:53 pm

jmcnrick

well i haven't wht

7:53 pm

welki

i know. i had two of them until last week. got rid of one in august and the last one a week ago thursday

7:54 pm

jmcnrick

most people turned off their motors and walked their dogs waiting on the helicopter

7:54 pm

jmcnrick

damn i really need a new bumper too!

7:54 pm

welki

sounds like a penny + in my opinion

7:54 pm

welki

shit, i had two

7:54 pm

jmcnrick

i looked at the blue book and it is now valued at $1,200. . . .

7:54 pm

lynxxx

the spanish coin starts with ce

7:55 pm

welki

we have the service manual on cd - literally GAVE away winter tires on rims

7:55 pm

jmcnrick

ty ty

7:55 pm

jmcnrick

well bring me the service manual when you come down

7:55 pm

jmcnrick

please

7:56 pm

welki

you have lots of miles on yours, though - right? ours were each less than 40,000 kilometers - and both 2007

7:56 pm

jmcnrick

i don't really need winter tires here especially with global warming

7:56 pm

welki

i'll mail it to you, if you want

7:56 pm

gemini_J13

I don't see any ce?

7:56 pm

jmcnrick

mine is 2005 and yes lots of miles but a good little car nevertheless . . . i just need to fix the bumper and a few little things

7:56 pm

welki

hahaha - we JUST got the manual yesterday, ordered it before we decided to dump the last one

7:56 pm

jmcnrick

she meant se gemini

7:57 pm

lynxxx

gem - the se7.32 sounds like a spanish coin that starts with ce

7:57 pm

gemini_J13

ahh thanks

7:57 pm

jmcnrick

well no se*** letting it go to waste!

7:57 pm

jmcnrick

hi lynxxx

7:57 pm

welki

the only reason we got anything for the convertible (an aero, too) was because it was on a trade and i'm a tenacious negotiator

7:58 pm

lynxxx

7:58 pm

8:00 pm

jmcnrick

jmcnrick

8:01 pm

welki

8:01 pm

lynxxx

ni & ****e the Day!

8:02 pm

jmcnrick

no no i am not in a rush and mail from canada never seems to reach me. . . its like the bad karma when i try to cross the border

8:02 pm

welki

depends on when the baby comes - my daughter's already been to the hospital twice for early labor - she's not due until the end of february. the first one was a preemie, but we're hoping she can hold on at least another week or two

8:03 pm

welki

ok - then i'll bring it with me and either hand it over to you (preferable) or mail it to you from jersey (which will make me sad, because it means i didn't see you)

8:03 pm

jmcnrick

i will come to jersey if need be. . .the saab still runs fine

8:03 pm

lynxxx

Minveryork

Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everybody doing today

8:36 pm

Dorens

Owl..you coming in next month when welkis in nj?

8:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

why couldn't you do it on your ipad?

8:36 pm

Jillyjill

I know I hate doing grids on my smart phone...

8:36 pm

Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!

8:36 pm

lynxxx

hi Min

8:36 pm

Lizlin

I love my iPad - especially when i travel. I have internet access and books! Before iPad I'd carry at least 4 large books,w hen I travelled!

8:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi min

8:36 pm

Lizlin

Hi Min :)

8:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

do i need to have a 4G?

8:37 pm

melonheadjujube

yay! got the 10 :D

8:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

do i need to have 32G

8:37 pm

Dorens

I have one owl, but don't utilize it enough to give advice. 1. It takes much more time . 2. Don't know how yo

8:37 pm

Lizlin

I don't have 3G or 4G - If I want internet, when I travel, we sort it then. We have wifi and ethernet in the house.

8:37 pm

melonheadjujube

If I had an accent, I would be surprised by its instantaneousness... heh heh

8:38 pm

Dorens

How to get lickety on? Screen just not that big. I still don't even know how I would enter words int o bulk anyway.

8:38 pm

Lizlin

I also use it first thing in the morning, if I wake up early to catch up with friends in the UK, without getting out of bed!

8:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

isn't the os just like your mac?

8:39 pm

Dorens

I don't have wifi..would be such a silly expense, I think

8:39 pm

Lizlin

Haven't discovered how to use bulk add in lickety on iPad - it's to do with the copy and paste, which is more fiddly on iPad.

8:39 pm

Dorens

Yes, is is similar, but no keyboard.. Need to learn the tricks soeday

8:39 pm

Lizlin

We use our computers a lot and it's not too expensive to have wifi here.

8:39 pm

Dorens

Exactly lizlin. I do need to ask someone someday.

8:40 pm

72 Temple Owl

i saw them advertised on qvc today and they had a keyboard. i am confused.

8:40 pm

welki

it's easy to copt into lickety- just open another window. ( on trips, i bring a bluetooth keyboard)

8:40 pm

Lizlin

Key pad comes up easily - just touch the add word space

8:40 pm

Dorens

No, I have wifi for my computer, but 4g on the iPad would be expensive...that's what I meant

8:41 pm

Lizlin

We don't usually have a keyboard when we travel and I use my main computer for bulk add in lickety

8:41 pm

Lizlin

Yes - that's why I don't have it on my iPad

8:41 pm

Dorens

Can you have lickety open same time as grid?

8:41 pm

welki

i used to have an internet provider for the ipad. like dorens said, it's expensive. now it's either wifi or i tether it to myniphone

8:42 pm

Dorens

My computer won't work here this weekend..so annoying

8:42 pm

Lizlin

Yes - just have to swap between tabs

8:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

i went to the apple store before christmas and they wre mobbed.

8:42 pm

welki

not side by side, but you can toggle between them

8:42 pm

Lizlin

Apple store here is always busy - usually loads of kids, even during term time.

8:43 pm

Dorens

Much too complicated for me... So, didn't finish tomorrow and I guess I won't tonight either

8:43 pm

Lizlin

Still have to find out how to selectively copy on iPad to use lickety effectively on it

8:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

when qvc has them the prices are not any less but they include accessories

8:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

doren can you do a paper list?

8:44 pm

Lizlin

That was how I did it until someone (Lynxxx perhaps) explained about bulk add!

8:44 pm

Dorens

Igot the ip ad 2 when they came out with the new one..took off 100$

8:44 pm

welki

liz, press down on top of list until you see the blue dots come up with the word copy - manipulate the bi

8:45 pm

Lizlin

Mine's also an ipad 2

8:45 pm

Dorens

Oh lord owl, not with a grid this size ...too much work at this point

8:45 pm

Lizlin

Trying it now welki :)

8:45 pm

welki

boundaries until theblistbis highlighted - copy and paste

8:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh, i did not know how much you had left to do

8:46 pm

welki

sheesh i can copy and paste, but not type!

8:46 pm

stidmama

8:46 pm

welki

hi stid

8:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

8:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

8:48 pm

stidmama

LOL that is...

8:48 pm

Dorens

Hey stud..and Welki, I see how yo copy, but not to paste

8:48 pm

Lizlin

Just hold finger on bulk add and the word paste appears

8:48 pm

Lizlin

Or perhaps it was in the space for bulk add

8:48 pm

stidmama

doren, do a "long tap" (put your finger down where you want to paste) until the "paste" selection pops up

8:48 pm

stidmama

or what liz said. ;-)

8:48 pm

Dorens

Hi stid

8:49 pm

Jillyjill

I would think that having a long assignment would be nicer than a few days.

8:49 pm

bichon

dr 7?

8:49 pm

Lizlin

Or what stid said!!! Hi stid :)

8:49 pm

welki

open up lickety's, scroll tomthe bulk add box. press your finger until the word paste appears. voila

8:49 pm

Lizlin

dr 7 - extreme actions with dr consequences

8:49 pm

Dorens

Welki, I Figured out how to copy, but not to paste

8:51 pm

stidmama

8:51 pm

Lizlin

And longer term consequences, that you know you can fulfil!
