VolleymomDee

I still have 60 to go, and I am finding it really tough.

1:45 am

grannyrose

grannyrose

2:22 am

VolleymomDee

Really surprised the tr 10 was included, since it is not in morewords.

2:22 am

VolleymomDee

We are going to my hubby's mom's on the Saturday before Easter, so I won't do any prep this year. I have been more focused on our daughter's upcoming birthday and getting ready for vacation in May.

2:23 am

grannyrose

2:24 am

2:28 am

VolleymomDee

We don't have any!! I have not been able to talk her into taking any yet.

2:28 am

VolleymomDee

I think she has been so nervous, after having the miscarriage last year, that now at 23 weeks, she is just starting to let herself get excited. Jason felt the baby move for the first time just the other day.

2:30 am

grannyrose

oh wow! i bet he nearly flipped out...*grin* and understandable about the pics.

2:30 am

VolleymomDee

He was super excited. She wouldn't let me touch her tummy before then - she wanted him to feel first... really sweet.

2:31 am

VolleymomDee

rubyfoo

Snowbirds were not happy

4:24 am

grannyrose

my sweet ruby xoxox

4:24 am

Trifioso

oh! you might like this - my niece is studying journalism in college, and she applied to be one of 30 students from the US going to Cannes to cover the festival, and she was chosen! needless to say, she is over the moon!

4:26 am

rubyfoo

Wow! Does she speak French? Tell her to Watch out for those dashing Frenchmen!

4:26 am

rubyfoo

hello again, Rosie, I thought I was on your s*** list LOL

4:27 am

Trifioso

she speaks Spanish, very well, actually....she is so excited. I am so proud of her. one fly in the ointment - my sister INSISTS on pronouncing it "con" which she thinks sound more posh. "con" as you well know, is NOT something my niece should run around saying in france.

4:27 am

grannyrose

now why did you think that?? i heard from sprite...did you?

4:28 am

rubyfoo

No, never say "con" here! And Frenchwomen don't swear. The worst they'll say is merde.

4:28 am

grannyrose

trif...what a wonderful experience for your niece.

4:29 am

Trifioso

lol. well, "pardon my French" then!

4:29 am

Trifioso

thank you granny.

4:29 am

rubyfoo

I teach my Fr girlfriends bad words in English

4:30 am

rubyfoo

4:30 am

grannyrose

dinner time my friends. xoxox to you all.

4:31 am

rubyfoo

bon appetit, Rosie

4:33 am

rubyfoo

There's a funny scene in the US series Deadwood where a client used a curse word in front of one of the women who "works" in the saloon, and he say "Pardon my French" to which the "lady" resonds "I sÃ peak French"

4:33 am

Trifioso

lol

4:33 am

rubyfoo

(sorry for the typos, I'm still groggy

4:34 am

rubyfoo

I am wearing a ca6/30 to keep warm

4:45 am

rubyfoo

Almost half and nothing bigger than a 7 and only 2 of those

4:45 am

rubyfoo

Duh me!

4:46 am

Trifioso

me too ruby!!! I was getting frustrated

4:47 am

Trifioso

I can't find anything bigger than a 7. all the usual endings and prefixes aren't working

4:48 am

rubyfoo

If anybody follows or otherwise annoys your niece, tell her to say "Fiche moi le paix!" They'll recoil in horror. It just means "give me peace", but it,s slang and a little rough

4:48 am

Trifioso

thanks!!! will do!

4:49 am

Trifioso

fi5 is PB for you, madame! lol

4:49 am

rubyfoo

The first time I was in France, Young and cute in a mini skirt and with a baby, when I'd say that, they'd disappear

4:50 am

Trifioso

she doesn't have a baby, but she is definitely young and cute

4:50 am

rubyfoo

haha "tant pis3 as they say, too bad

4:50 am

Trifioso

I didn't know you weren't born in france.

4:51 am

rubyfoo

I was only 21 and because he was blonde and I wasn't, they assumed I was a nanny

4:51 am

rubyfoo

no no, I'm a New Yorker

4:51 am

Trifioso

mind = blown

4:52 am

rubyfoo

Why?

4:53 am

Trifioso

I thought you were French.

4:55 am

Trifioso

i mean, it's not fatal...i will go on to lead a normal life and all....hahaa

4:55 am

rubyfoo

I just read your profile. My first time here, in '63, my 1st husband was woeking at the Bibliotheque Nationale and I would make a picnic lunch, bring th baby, and we'd eat lunch either in the Tuileries or in the courtyard of the Palais Royale.

4:55 am

Trifioso

ahhhhh....the Tuileries!

4:56 am

rubyfoo

I fell in love with France immediately

4:56 am

bichon

I didn't realize you had been in France years ago

4:56 am

rubyfoo

and ultimately convinced husband deux to retire here

4:57 am

rubyfoo

Hello, Bichon, yes, many times, and almost married a Frenchman in '78! But that's a story for a rainy day

4:57 am

Trifioso

i cant speak for everyone, but thus far, I can recommend husband deux

4:57 am

bichon

Sounds like a dream

4:58 am

rubyfoo

Many dreams....except for the last few years

4:59 am

rubyfoo

But as my local doctor said,ominously, I thought, "You've had a good life!"

5:00 am

bichon

For the food alone

5:02 am

Trifioso

I thought I just entered some text, but it disappeared...how strange

5:03 am

Trifioso

zoozzoom

1966 I was only two years old then.

5:40 am

The problem, here, with tulips is that they are great the first year and then die off. Locals dig themup every year, but that is too much trouble!

5:40 am

rubyfoo

Good girl, Bichon LOL

5:41 am

rubyfoo

the winterberry is a species of holly native to eastern North America

5:50 am

rubyfoo

ty zzoozz

5:51 am

rubyfoo

Are the berries red? I put in one holly, but the birds eat the berries when they are stll orange, and now, because of that, there are baby hollies all over the place

5:52 am

TheByzantine

checked google ... berries look red

5:53 am

rubyfoo

I love when plants do that; it shows they are well-acclimated to the garden

5:54 am

rubyfoo

We put in an elderberry for the birds and it, too, ghad a baby nearby

5:56 am

TheByzantine

Does the elderberry get social security?

5:56 am

rubyfoo

Of course, buddleia and cotoneast become invasive pe**s and have to be removed or they'd take over the whole garden

5:56 am

rubyfoo

We're not in the French system, unfortunately

6:09 am

rubyfoo

I'm not even sure if it's elderberry or something else, but it's tall, has flowers first, then white berries which turn orange and are eaten by the 100's of birds which live in our garden. It's perfct for them because I feed them sunflowers seeds all year, there is a fishpond for water, there are not cats AND they entertain the dogs, kind of dog TV

6:11 am

zoozzoom

I feed the birds with fatballs and birdseed in a large birdfeeder and all the food is gone in about two days lol

6:12 am

rubyfoo

I have a small feeder and have to fill it 3 times/day

6:13 am

rubyfoo

I tried fatballs, but the merle worked in pairs and dismantled them, leaving the plastic on the ground

6:14 am

zoozzoom

I am sure the birds are grateful though, ruby :-)

6:14 am

rubyfoo

laughing all the way

6:14 am

rubyfoo

it is nice to have the feeder where it is, in front of the kitchen Windows, so I can identify all the French birds

6:15 am

zoozzoom

I take the fatballs out of the plastic netting and put them into a tube cage the birds love that as they can all gather around the cage and enjoy!

6:15 am

bichon

We're planting winterberry to attract birds. Birds don't come to our feeder

6:15 am

rubyfoo

They eat so much that I'm surprised they can still fly

6:15 am

zoozzoom

Yes i can see mine from the kitchen and upstairs windows!

6:15 am

TheByzantine

Drive-in banks were established so most of the cars today could see their real owners. E. Joseph Cossma

6:16 am

rubyfoo

I'll look for a tube like that because it would probably attract different birds

6:16 am

rubyfoo

hahah, Byz

6:18 am

zoozzoom

mine is the one that can hold around six fatballs, Ruby.

6:19 am

rubyfoo

I Wonder why birds don't like your feeder, bihon. Do the fluffs chase them away?

6:20 am

rubyfoo

I wrote down that tinyurl address and will see if zoomalia has them or maybr amazon

6:21 am

zoozzoom

Amazon sell them, Ruby.

6:21 am

sukee

So, more than snow, we also have ice.

6:22 am

zoozzoom

Be cafeful then, sukee. i hate ice.

6:22 am

zoozzoom

Unless it is in a drink of course :-)

6:22 am

sukee

Me too. It's the first full day of spring, come on :)

6:23 am

6:26 am

zoozzoom

6:28 am

rubyfoo

6:29 am

sukee

6:29 am

6:30 am

6:30 am

rubyfoo

6:48 am

Odd schedule this time around. Just coming off a week off, then back to classes for three days, then the students are off until the following Tuesday when the new term begins. However, I will have the joy of helping my own beloved with her final credit for her college course she wishes to take.

6:51 am

Lizlin

That is odd. Great to have the time off though and really great to be able to help your beloved with her work.

6:52 am

Lizlin

Anniebrook

good morning, babblers

7:00 am

Lizlin

Hi Annie

7:01 am

Anniebrook

Hi Liz, I should say "good evening" to you

7:01 am

Lizlin

That's no problem. Time zones are so confusing! That's why I just say hi - covers everything.

7:02 am

Anniebrook

Liz, Is the time difference 12 hours?

7:02 am

Anniebrook

It is 8 am here

7:03 am

Lizlin

It's 10 pm here - so it depends on where you are in the US

7:03 am

Anniebrook

East Coast

7:03 am

Lizlin

That makes it a 14 hour difference for me. But it's different again for Rose - she's on daylight saving for another week. We don't have that here.

7:04 am

Anniebrook

we changed to daylight savings time last week

7:05 am

Lizlin

In our winter, I'm on the same time zone as Rose but in summer she's an hour ahead of me.

7:05 am

Lizlin

Not sure when daylight saving finishes for Rose - end of March I think.

7:06 am

Anniebrook

acta

7:07 am

Anniebrook

sorry

7:07 am

Lizlin

No worries.

7:07 am

One of the 8 letter words would be more useful :)

Scrabbler

Hi ANnie

7:09 am

Anniebrook

Hi Scrabss, How are the bunnies?

7:11 am

Scrabbler

Great and I will have a guest bunny here from tonite through April 2nd while his family is away. His name is Giacomo.

7:11 am

Lizlin

Are new bunnies easily accepted into the group?

7:11 am

Anniebrook

so you are running a B & B for bunnies

7:15 am

Scrabbler

Yes, it is Rabbitat here. Everyone is separated as rabbits are very territorial. Remy has run of the house. Gulliver has his own room and Giacomo will have his own room.

7:15 am

Scrabbler

Remy will meet the other 2 at the gates of their rooms.

7:15 am

Lizlin

Ah! Sounds like border control!

7:16 am

Anniebrook

lol

7:17 am

Scrabbler

I may someday attempt to bond Remy and Gulliver but that takes time in a neutral space under stressful conditions, e.g. laundry basket, bathtub (no water), so they bond with each other.

7:18 am

Scrabbler

I must get ready for an appt. Maybe I will be back tonight. ENjoy the day,

7:18 am

Lizlin

Is that the same with all rabbits even if they're from the same litter?

7:18 am

Lizlin

Have a good day.

7:18 am

Anniebrook

bye, Scrabbs

7:22 am

Lizlin

55 left and I'm giving up for tonight. Perhaps with fresh eyes I'll see more words tomorrow. Enjoy your day, Annie and lurkers.

7:23 am

Anniebrook

thank youi, Liz, and a peaceful night to you

7:23 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Annie

there is a 10 tr 10/84

11:20 am

MollyL

Does it exist? Well it counts in the grid if that is what you mean. It is not in Lickety's list though.

11:20 am

MollyL

Lickety's list uses a different word source.

11:22 am

Sandieangel

Ok. I will try to find it.

11:25 am

Speedie

It is TR10

11:26 am

zoozzoom

Sandieangel, some good clues around the 5:14am - 5:30am mark in the chat log.

11:26 am

zoozzoom

For the TR 8/55 ; TR 9/72 & TR 10/84

11:32 am

Sandieangel

I have put every permutation of the windpipe and the duck and nothing works for 10.

11:33 am

Speedie

It is a weird word. Starts with the windpipe five letters if it helps

11:34 am

Sandieangel

Yup. That is what I have I have. I have the 8 and 9 but the 10 just does not work.

11:34 am

zoozzoom

Okay the same six letters then add another one B**** the dust.

i dont think it fits over the enhanced tatas...heh

I think it's some kind of bad joke of femininity that you get the best rack when you are least likely to make good use of it.

Tough to have to give up a pet, you try everything and still feel bad, in my experience. Really speaks well of you finding Leroy a good new home!

1:38 pm

flosey

I did TO and felt terrible at failing, he was just too big for me - I could not have walked him, he even got away from hubby and headed straight to a group of fenced in young lambs - where he could have, by law, been shot!! Legal on our island

we had to putour great pyrenese to sleep due to a lame leg

Mine was a cat that ended up being a danger to our other cats, turned out he made a good solo barn cat for someone else and I was so glad.

apparently they are often used as sheep dogs, they corral them, watch over them so it was quite natural for him

4:27 pm

brandyjack

Dr. G is known for appending a couple of words not in ENABLE. Stent is another one....

4:29 pm

MollyL

I'm not sure I understand the "appending" thing. Why confuse people?

4:30 pm

I expect people pressured him that it was a 'real' word.

4:30 pm

sammysmom

thanks again molly... another of the thousands of wirds that lne will never use heh heh

4:31 pm

MollyL

Seriously? People pressured him that tr10 was a real word? With all the real words not included? We are allowed merde/French for shit, but not merci/French for thank you?

4:32 pm

Buttonman

I figured out the word from the clue below that was given, however, when i try to enter it, the grid will not take it...

4:33 pm

The grid is likely taking it, but Lickety's is refusing it because it isn't part of it's daily list....

The enable lexicon is touted as being the most heavily researched lexicon out there. Whether or not that is true is irrelevant. What is relevant, it's free to use however you wish, unlike most other wordlists. Was first creted for Scrabble addicts.....

5:03 pm

MollyL

People always seem to feel the need to defend Enable (Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon) even though it is the most out dated reference for word games, since it has not been updated in 16 years.

5:04 pm

And it is not "free to use" here. Here it is what drives the grids we are trying to solve.

Try this - st + female poultry + 2 letter shorthand (often used in texting) that indicates understanding.

Plus, it's twisty all up in the right upper corner!
