2:07 am

Jivingjenny0

thanks rose, already had the 7 didn't think to try adding a vowel

2:07 am

rbud

whew, thanks, rose, was racking my brain for some sort of clue - my best notion so far was how similar it is to that corn-based gasoline additive, but a little scrambled, lol

2:08 am

grannyrose

np's jenny. and how are you ? and rbud, g'day dear

3:02 am

meds can be such a struggle. *hugs*

3:02 am

Jadeomoan

And you?

3:02 am

3:05 am

Jadeomoan

Jadeomoan

FIrst column, n word...

grannyrose

3:06 am

grannyrose

3:06 am

sprite

3:06 am

Jadeomoan

oh brother.....yes, the na7....

3:08 am

grannyrose

really, sprite. you need to step into a church every now and again. * grin *

3:08 am

sprite

am glad you seem to have find the right combo, rose.

3:09 am

sprite

lol I did, for years... teaching sacred dance there. No idea about the na7 so far though. What is the point count?

3:09 am

grannyrose

7/52, sweetie

3:09 am

sprite

3:10 am

grannyrose

3:11 am

3:12 am

Jadeomoan

THANK YOU! Now I can go to sleep! Will finish the last 55 later! Thanks, grannyrose, sprite! HUGS!!

3:12 am

sprite

sleep well,, Jade, and *hugs*

3:13 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} jade. sweet dreams dear

3:15 am

sprite

how are you feeling today, rose? Apart from the pain being under control?

3:16 am

grannyrose

a little more upbeat. don and i have been sharing a lot of laughs today. just little things which give both of us the giggles.

3:17 am

sprite

that is great healing :) Good to hear today was less down. Are you sleeping ok now?

3:19 am

grannyrose

sleeping a little better. still wakeful at least once/night but not for hours and hours like before.

3:20 am

grannyrose

have been having really crazy dreams though which are difficult to remeber properly when i awake.

3:20 am

sprite

that is progress, at least. I do feel that you will start feeling a lot better once you catch up with your sleep. I hope my email didn't rub you the wrong way.

3:21 am

sprite

that must be in the air, crazy dreaming. I am all oveer the place too, and my girl as well.

3:21 am

grannyrose

btw, did you read the emails from pugs?

3:21 am

sprite

yeah I did. Worrisome.

3:21 am

grannyrose

exactly. i will email you and chat it over.

3:22 am

sprite

good idea. Am gonna email her back after babble.

3:23 am

grannyrose

considering the diagnosis, please be careful in case he reads them too.

3:23 am

sprite

the diagnosis so far sucks. Does not explain the behaviour.

3:26 am

grannyrose

well, uncontrolled illness can explain the behaviour. very bad cases become like that as the person really doesn't know which world they are in.

3:26 am

sprite

I'll email you about it, ok?

3:26 am

grannyrose

yeah. all good

3:27 am

sprite

:)

3:27 am

sprite

so... did my email rub you the wrong way or is it just that you haven't had the energy/time to answer?

3:29 am

grannyrose

the second option sounds good... loll. yeah, the motivation is pretty low. nothing you can say will rub me up the wrong way. i try and understand what is being said and think it carefully through.

3:30 am

sprite

all good then! You just take your time and whenever is good enough. As long as you don't feel hurt, because I'd never want to hurt you.

3:31 am

grannyrose

* thick hi4, like elephant *

3:31 am

sprite

no you haven't

3:36 am

sprite

I keep seeing 'sloth'. D'ya think it is token of my laziness?

3:37 am

grannyrose

roflollll. hmmm. i take the fifth amendment. on the grounds i like to breathe.

3:37 am

sprite

hmphhhh mumble mumble breathing is highly overrated mumble mumble

3:38 am

grannyrose

now i am really am laughing out loud.

3:38 am

sprite

hehehe good :D

3:38 am

sprite

btw, hospital visit was very informative yesterday. They are really thorough there.

3:39 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs, ladies

3:39 am

grannyrose

as they should be. they have a very precious person coming in as a patient.

3:40 am

sprite

hiya Liz :) *hugs* for the both of you. How was your day?

3:40 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} lizgirl

3:40 am

sprite

awww that is sweet, rose. Thanks :)

3:40 am

Lizlin

OK - Rose is right, you know.

3:40 am

sprite

awwww :) Wow, you girls make me feel good!

3:40 am

grannyrose

see??? i'm right sprite.

3:41 am

Lizlin

And that's really good that you feel you have the info you need.

3:41 am

Lizlin

How are both of you?

3:42 am

sprite

they actually take the time to explain the REASON of each and every 'rule' you have to follow before and after the op. That is rare. And it makes it so much easier to follow them, for me anyway.

3:42 am

sprite

I am fine, thanks! How about the two of you?

3:43 am

Lizlin

Also fine. No news here.

3:43 am

sprite

no news is good news then :)

3:43 am

Lizlin

Is Pugs OK.

3:43 am

sprite

not really, Liz. Will drop you a line in email, ok? She asked to give you her love and hugs.

3:44 am

Lizlin

Please do.

3:47 am

Lizlin

Too many almost words today.

3:47 am

sprite

ain't that the truth!

3:48 am

sprite

but nevertheless... fireflies! I'll get to my emails then, *hugs* and lots of love.

3:48 am

Lizlin

Congrats, Sprite. Have a lovely day. Hugs.

3:49 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!!. hope you can enjoy your day sweetie

3:50 am

Lizlin

How are you Rose?

3:52 am

grannyrose

okay thanx liz. i am trying a new combo of my 'pain' meds. it seems to be working.

3:53 am

Lizlin

That is good. Is it very cold in Melbourne?

3:57 am

grannyrose

it has been extremely cold. but the sun is starting to warm up at last.

3:58 am

Lizlin

Days are OK here. Nights still very cold.

3:59 am

Lizlin

Just read sprites email.

4:00 am

grannyrose

about pugs?

4:00 am

Lizlin

Yup

4:01 am

grannyrose

too scary!

4:01 am

Lizlin

Tell me about it.

4:01 am

Lizlin

That's an agreement statement, not a request!

4:02 am

grannyrose

i read it as such.

4:02 am

Lizlin

Good! I've actually got questions - I'll email you and sprite, probably tomorrow.

4:03 am

grannyrose

okay, liz.

4:04 am

Lizlin

Dinner soon, so hugs to you and Don

4:04 am

grannyrose

enjoy liz. hugs to you and Peter. xoxox

5:16 am

sukee

Hi Mr.

5:17 am

mrpresident

was lurking earlier... now need to get into the grid :)

5:18 am

sukee

Well, I went and bought a smart TV yesterday, coming on Monday. 43*

5:19 am

mrpresident

oh how wonderful! great size too

5:19 am

sukee

Yes, watching baseball and movies is going to be great :)

5:21 am

sukee

Going through a bit of withdrawal without the TV but I can watch things online, including the baseball game :)

5:22 am

sukee

Got rid of my nasty old TV (well, only 12 years old) It was heavy and did not have a great picture. Luckily, I got the super to take it out for me.

5:24 am

mrpresident

I have some $$$ saved and want to buy something, but just can't decide. I have 2 computers, 2 tv's, ...

5:24 am

mrpresident

12 years is a long time for a tv!!

5:24 am

sukee

I got a nice interest check from my pension, picking up a new ipad too. Everything has stopped working properly all of a sudden.

5:25 am

sukee

Yes, when I bought that TV I think flat screens cost thousands of dollars.

5:26 am

mrpresident

ah, replacing the old is good

5:26 am

sukee

My apartment looks better already.

5:27 am

mrpresident

I have a tv that is only 2 years old, and the screen went out ... don't make them like they used to

5:27 am

sukee

I have a fake fireplace and the TV will go on top.

5:28 am

sukee

Hopefully this will last longer. I got a good deal on it too, it was on sale for $200 off.

5:58 am

mrpresident

sorry, had a major spillage... cleaning carpet is hard on the back!!!

6:03 am

sukee

Oh oh, hope it doesn't stain.

6:05 am

sukee

I have to go soon, gym day.

6:07 am

Trifioso

6:12 am

Trifioso

hahaha. we have a national spelling bee once a year, and its GREAT

6:12 am

mrpresident

how intense can they make it!!

6:13 am

Trifioso

as far as I am concerned, ANY thing, show, effort, whatever, to make being educated seem like something people should strive for works for me

6:13 am

mrpresident

antiquated, equalibrium, ... some hard bloody words!

6:19 am

Trifioso

some hard bloody words to find in the grid!

6:21 am

mrpresident

yes trif, agree with you... education is the key... so many of Maddie's classmates just dropped out of school. Thankfully I really put a lot of emphasis on education during their informative years

6:22 am

Trifioso

well done you!!!

6:22 am

lbdawger

gm, everyone! clue for the na7?

6:22 am

mrpresident

They strive to go to university and I told them great stories about my uni years and how amazing and fun and hard it was! They want the same thing

6:23 am

Trifioso

its a word that means, I think, the front part of a church

6:23 am

mrpresident

hi dawg! ((hugs))

6:23 am

Trifioso

ends with high point tile

6:23 am

Trifioso

excellent! I have one in college now, one just finished college, and one two years away, so I could not agree more!!!

6:23 am

mrpresident

n... then go in circle until you use the biggest tile at the end of the word

6:24 am

mrpresident

I thought na7 was a chemical

6:24 am

mrpresident

man oh man that must be expensive trif!!

6:24 am

Soodle

6:26 am

Soodle

Well, I'll be the one wearing the yashmak! I have shingles all around my mouth & I look terrifying!

6:26 am

mrpresident

the word is comparable... and the announcer pronounced it 'comprable'

6:27 am

Trifioso

6:27 am

lbdawger

6:27 am

mrpresident

6:27 am

mrpresident

6:28 am

6:28 am

lbdawger

6:28 am

crosshair

Trifioso

6:33 am

crosshair

poor ((soodles))

6:33 am

Trifioso

its okay soodle!!!! I have used it for my internet name since....I don't know, since I had one? Its my email address, my user name for everything, etc. I wanted something that was gender neutral, so different sites I visit would not know if I was a woman or man.

6:33 am

mrpresident

6:34 am

mrpresident

6:38 am

Trifioso

HAHAHAHAHA

6:38 am

mrpresident

ha! love it

6:39 am

Trifioso

god, think about that for a second - could there BE a sadder job in the world? You are in a porno, but you don't even merit a ROLE - you just stand there. watching. naked. career FAIL

6:39 am

Soodle

And on that high note, I'll take my leave. Laters folks!!

6:39 am

mrpresident

I believe they are called 'fluffers'

6:40 am

Trifioso

mrpresident

6:41 am

Trifioso

.....like the man who cleans up behind the circus elephants, they think they are in show business

6:41 am

crosshair

Yup, even in the most elegant palace, someone has to clean the toilets...

6:41 am

mrpresident

6:43 am

Trifioso

6:43 am

mrpresident

6:44 am

crosshair

6:45 am

mrpresident

cynisism is a bloody hard word for an 8 year old to spell

6:46 am

crosshair

I should memorize all the rivers in Hades anyways, because I am sure that i will be sailing them one day:)

4:57 pm

MollyL

I treated my son to Chinese take out tonight. I'm not hungry and I don't feel like cooking. Brutal week at work.

4:58 pm

Aloyisius

sounds good to me!

4:59 pm

MollyL

I limit the Chinese take out to a few times a year. It's not the healthiest way to eat, but it's good on occasion.

4:59 pm

Aloyisius

yummy too

5:00 pm

Aloyisius

well, I'm off for now.. haven't seen the news in a week.. time to do so.. bbl, poof

5:00 pm

bichon

ho 6/21, pls

5:07 pm

bichon

nm

5:09 pm

MollyL

Eh, the news. It's so depressing.

5:20 pm

tuco

Speaking of news. I am hoping and praying that next year brings a Trump vs Sanders presidential race.

5:21 pm

MollyL

There was a time that I wouldn't have believed that the American public would back a Presidential candidate like Trump. But after they elected that clown who is in The White House now...not once...but twice...I'll believe anything.

5:22 pm

tuco

Yeah we have had 2 consecutive 2 term clown presidents. Depending on your point of view.

5:23 pm

MollyL

I wish The Supreme Court would amend The Constitution to one term per president.

5:24 pm

MollyL

And maybe one term per family, considering the Bush regime.

5:24 pm

tuco

That would be even worse. Term limits increase the rate of politicians going through the DC revolving door. Get elected make connections with the lobbys and cash in.

5:25 pm

tuco

We already have term limits. They are called elections.

5:25 pm

MollyL

Tuco, "apprentice clock maker" is very cool. That is some precise work.

5:25 pm

tuco

We have to take the money out of the campaigns.

5:26 pm

tuco

it has been a year and a half now. I have been doing a lot of cuckoo clocks lately. I hope to learn watch repair too.

5:27 pm

MollyL

I love clocks. The more intricate the better. It is my dream to someday have a Grandfather clock.

5:28 pm

tuco

Most of the people doing this work around here are in their 80s. I will be 60 this year. It is fun. I have always liked working with my hands. Being a programmer you don't get to actually touch what you make.

5:28 pm

tuco

Molly you are very politically aware for a 6 year old human :-)

5:29 pm

MollyL

There was a short run series on network TV called "Zero Hour" that featured a clock repair person in the story. It was fascinating to see the inner workings of the clocks in the story.

5:30 pm

MollyL

As for me, I'm a lot older than 6. But I try to keep my inner six-year-old alive and listened to.

5:31 pm

tuco

What is pretty cool when you think about it, the power that allows a clock to run is not driving the clock.

5:32 pm

tuco

the clockwork is actually releasing the power of the spring or the weight with every swing of the pendulum.

5:32 pm

tuco

So the gears are not there to transmit power but to inhibit it.

5:41 pm

MollyL

It's amazing how clocks work. It must be a lot of fun to build them.

6:12 pm

cosdem

Hello human beings and whatnot

6:13 pm

MollyL

<---Whatnot

6:13 pm

cosdem

Same here but you knew that already!

6:14 pm

MollyL

I did <---meant to be humorous

6:15 pm

anyone here??

6:15 pm

I see James Holmes was spared his life.(not humorous)

6:16 pm

penquis

hi...

6:16 pm

penquis

do you have the na word?

6:16 pm

MollyL

Holmes is one crazy MF <---not meant to be humorous

6:17 pm

Jeff7

that na is the first time i have seen that word

6:17 pm

MollyL

The na word ends in the high point tile

6:17 pm

penquis

can you clue it?

6:17 pm

Jeff7

a vestibule ending with the high point letter

6:17 pm

penquis

nm.....found it...ty, molly....i am done...

6:17 pm

penquis

ty jeff....

6:18 pm

cosdem

Molly I am excited. I get to shop for my office snacks and supplies tomorrow! Woo hoo

6:19 pm

penquis

i am familiar with nave, but i don't know what word would be the vestibule.....narth is not in the dictionary...

6:19 pm

penquis

go, cos!.....

I imagine you keep a vast supply of good office snacks (meant to be humorous)

6:20 pm

Good evening

6:20 pm

MollyL

Well, lets see Pen. Narth doesn't end in the high point tile.

6:20 pm

cosdem

I like to share with the kids -- it helps me coax info out of them.

6:20 pm

penquis

i found the word....i just didn't understand Jeff's clue...

6:22 pm

MollyL

Jeff was cluing based on the definition given here.

6:22 pm

MollyL

Cos, for someone who doesn't have kids, you certainly understand the value of blackmail (meant to be humorous)

6:24 pm

cosdem

My kids have learned the best way to get a yes from me is if they bring me starbucks first

6:26 pm

MollyL

I love the smell of a Starbucks store. I could just go sit in one and breathe deeply and be happy. As for their drinks, I don't do them. If I meet someone at Starbucks for coffee, I ask for a black coffee and the people behind the counter look at me like I'm from Mars.

6:27 pm

MollyL

*That comment was not meant to be critical in any way*

6:28 pm

cosdem

Oh I only drink the caramel ones in the little glass bottles they sell an arm and leg for at the 711

6:28 pm

cosdem
