1:17 am

grannyrose

flosey, i have to say your rose is gorgeous, honey. such a lovely deep pink. does it have a scent too.

1:18 am

grannyrose

WTG RBUD!!!

1:21 am

rbud

(sure, it was smooth with all you whizzes calling 'em, haha!)

1:21 am

flosey

I'd never finish without the listings

1:22 am

grannyrose

*rolls eyes* i have been called many things... never a whiz.

1:22 am

Kamanjah

I'd call you a Babble Whiz, Granny!

1:22 am

grannyrose

lolll... bless you kam. xoxox

1:23 am

rbud

only about 10 "normal" words in the whole thing! :P

1:23 am

grannyrose

i also have never been called 'late to dinner'.

1:24 am

Kamanjah

Hahaha! I'm always late cooking dinner though... ;)

1:24 am

rbud

hahaha! I just fix dinner and stand back... and take the leavings after the flurry dies down, myself

1:24 am

VolleymomDee

Well, I am falling asleep at the keyboard. See you all tomorrow. *poofing with hugs*

1:25 am

Kamanjah

Night Dee, sleep well! I'm grabbing your list in a few! 16 left...

1:25 am

grannyrose

dear dee, sweet dreams sweetheart. xoxox

1:25 am

rbud

nite, Dee (((hugs)))

1:26 am

flosey

sweet sleep Dee and thanks for list

1:26 am

grannyrose

bbl, off to do one of my daily jigsaws.

1:27 am

Kamanjah

Oh, have fun! Do you use Jigidi? I love that site - check out my crazy puzzles if that's the one you use.

1:27 am

grannyrose

what's your user name, kam?

1:27 am

Kamanjah

1:28 am

Kamanjah

If you want any smaller, let me know.

1:28 am

grannyrose

lolll, really?? i would never have guessed. i usually play between 100 and 200 pieces as i am on a laptop

1:29 am

Kamanjah

OK, let me know, because I have a 24" monitor and like around 300 - 400

1:30 am

Kamanjah

I have a crazy assortment of things, you'll laugh, I'm sure!

1:32 am

flosey

I too do a lot of jigsaws - I like "TheJigsawPuzzles" site - wish I had a square monitor though! mine is about 12 x 24 - rough guess

1:33 am

rbud

I'm on Jigidi, but don't post many puzzles. Rbud57 - found yours, Kamanjah, nifty stuff. I do the bigger ones at work with the bigger monitor there.

1:35 am

Kamanjah

Thanks, Rbud, I'll look for yours. I haven't done any in a couple of months, have been doing other things. I miss the puzzles though.

1:36 am

rbud

Mine are mostly small, I don't like it when the pics distort when enlarged too big. Haven't looked for big pics much, I think yours must be big to start with?

1:38 am

Kamanjah

I refuse to load distorted. I'm picky that way. If you do any of mine that come out distorted, please let me know. I haven't even done them all yet. You have some nice puzzles posted!

1:38 am

Kamanjah

Yes, I do a lot of photography, and editing. If I can't get it to where it looks good on my monitor, I either post smaller, or don't post at all.

1:39 am

rbud

I also had a bad experience once when asking permission to post a copy of a work of art for an art appreciation thread. They wanted money if I used it, sigh... so I feel odd about copyrights.

1:39 am

Kamanjah

I just list the copyright holder.

1:40 am

Kamanjah

If I ask and they say no, I don't use it except for myself, then delete it once finished.

1:40 am

rbud

yep, I do, too, but the wording "I have permission..." always hangs me up, lol!!! :P I'm just weird, I know.

1:41 am

rbud

I never thought of just using them for myself, hmmm, good idea.

1:41 am

Kamanjah

Doesn't it say "I have to give credit to.."? I don't remember offhand.

1:42 am

Kamanjah

Yes, it says "I'm required to give credit to the artist" so I do so.

1:42 am

rbud

Maybe that's it, it didn't seem quite as sketchy to me last time. I just did a couple, you'd think I'd recall.

1:46 am

rbud

I sure don't get why people post so many puzzles with like 9 or 12 pieces. no fun in that.

1:53 am

grannyrose

rbud, the very small puzzles are posted for children to do.

1:57 am

rbud

ahhhhh, and here I thought it was just to get discussion going, some of those folks are pretty chatty under their puzzles. :)

2:02 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

2:02 am

flosey

thanks Lickety

2:02 am

flosey

and good to see you again!

2:02 am

rbud

oh, dear, I'm worse than I thought, just looked to the end and I have 66 screens of bookmarked puzzles I've not done, hahaha!

2:06 am

flosey

how does one un5 something?

2:06 am

Kamanjah

I know I have a lot of bookmarked puzzles, I went through a few months ago and deleted a bunch.

2:07 am

Kamanjah

Flosey, sometimes we wish we could, lol! I wondered about that one too!

2:07 am

flosey

lol, know that feeling Kam

2:09 am

flosey

aha, and suddenly!! FW and off to hit my pillow

2:09 am

flosey

goodnight all

2:14 am

Kamanjah

and FW for me too! off to bed for me too. Sleep well, Flosey!

5:56 am

bichon

Recently returned frm our Danube Cruise. It was wonderful

5:56 am

rubyfoo

Was your weather OK as this has been a very strange spring?

5:57 am

rubyfoo

We get a couple of seasonably warm days and then it goes back to 40's at night and rain

5:57 am

bichon

We had three sunny days, the rest were cool and cloudy.

5:58 am

rubyfoo

And today the "bise" is blowing hard, taking the flowers off the fruit trees

5:58 am

bichon

This was a Jewish Heritage cruise

5:58 am

rubyfoo

The worst weather here is when the piercing winds oime through the valley

5:59 am

rubyfoo

What sort of boat?

5:59 am

bichon

It was a river cruise boat, not that big. Room for 180 passengers

6:00 am

rubyfoo

Which cities and sites?

6:01 am

rubyfoo

Warsaw, Prague? Budapest?

6:01 am

bichon

Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna, Melk, Passau, Prague. We visited two concentration camps and we had a Holocaust survivor on board who talked with us.

6:02 am

rubyfoo

That must have been fascinating!

6:03 am

rubyfoo

8:10 am

hi, folks

8:10 am

Scrabbler

Hi welki

8:10 am

crosshair

Howdy, Welki :)

8:11 am

Scrabbler

Welki, people were enjoying fishing at the nearby pond that was just stocked with trout.

8:12 am

rururocks

Fish lives matter!!!

8:12 am

welki

interesting when people converge on a pond early in the season - you get to witness their true colors.

8:13 am

Scrabbler

I know, Ruru. I saw 2 dead fish floating yesterday. Caught, unhooked, tossed back, but killed. It made me sad.

8:14 am

welki

i wish people would learn how to properly handle, catch and release fish

8:15 am

Scrabbler

Yes. Our father taught us when we were kids, with a needlenose plier, how to be careful.

8:16 am

welki

i help a lot of kids when i see them struggling - the adults, though - well, they're typically resistant when i ask if i can help, they 'know it all' (while they're standing on the dock trying to hold the fish down with their foot)

8:16 am

car.eeyore

I enjoyed breakfast outside with my hubby while watching my bird feeder. It got a little chilly, so I decided to come Babble

8:16 am

welki

i de-barb all our hooks - makes catching them a little harder, but release so much easier

8:17 am

car.eeyore

<--- catch & release family

8:17 am

Scrabbler

I love doing that too, Car. I have many bird feeders in front and back.

8:17 am

car.eeyore

Except the rare occasions we ocean fish and catch something we can eat

8:17 am

car.eeyore

I am so amazed by the colors birds come it!

8:17 am

car.eeyore

*in!

8:17 am

Scrabbler

Yay, welki and Car.

8:18 am

welki

i can see our bird feeders from here, too - lots of redwing blackbirds, sparrows, woodpeckers today

8:18 am

car.eeyore

Among the mix, I had a single male cardinal...angel watching over me!

8:19 am

Scrabbler

I love seeing a male cardinal. I believe it is my father visiting me.

8:19 am

car.eeyore

Love that!

8:20 am

welki

i miss cardinals, we don't have many really colorful birds. but we do have northern flickers, western meadowlarks, bluebirds, hummingbirds and a few other bright ones

8:21 am

car.eeyore

I have never seen a bluebird in the wild. I would really love to. Goldfinches are also some of my faves...the way they flit around together.

8:21 am

car.eeyore

And even blue jays...what amazing color they have

8:21 am

car.eeyore

The iridescent-like feathers on the tails of the cowbirds...

8:22 am

car.eeyore

Birds just fascinate me...always have. Thus, I always wanted a bird...and now I have the parrot from hell.

8:22 am

welki

we see a lot of magpies, too - they've got personality :)

8:23 am

car.eeyore

cool!

8:23 am

car.eeyore

And there is nothing like the mourning dove call

8:23 am

welki

(i used to have parrots, too - a grey and an amazon)

8:23 am

car.eeyore

makes me feel all is well

8:23 am

car.eeyore

I have an African gray

8:23 am

car.eeyore

*grey

8:24 am

welki

a congo?

8:24 am

car.eeyore

No.

8:24 am

car.eeyore

AFrican Grey Parrot

8:25 am

welki

yeah - there are two kinds, congo and timneh

8:25 am

car.eeyore

We are going to change her name to "Meg", so we can just say "Shut Up, Meg" like on Family Guy! Add some bit of humor to the situation.

8:25 am

car.eeyore

I did not know that...I will check...please hold...

8:25 am

Scrabbler

I have lots of purple finches, rose-breasted grosbeaks, many types of woodpeckers, including pileated ones, tufted titmice, chickadees, nuthatches, goldfinches, doves, etc.

8:26 am

car.eeyore

She is a Congo. I learned something new today! TY welki

8:26 am

welki

i made a new mix for the feeders on friday - turning the birds into spoiled brats :)

8:26 am

Scrabbler

Nice.

8:26 am

Scrabbler

What is in it, welki?

8:26 am

welki

mine were congos, too (nelson and mozart)

8:26 am

car.eeyore

Very colorful mix, Scrabs

8:27 am

car.eeyore

What is your secret feed welki?

8:27 am

car.eeyore

phantom: kayak

8:28 am

Scrabbler

I just use blackoil sunflower seeds and suet cakes and it is a party here. Then the squirrels and chipmunks are groundfeeders, although the squirrels jump on some of the feeders.

I loved the bird conversation..makes me want to get another bird feeder. Here we have gulls, pigeons and crows. Not very colorful and the crows are not very polite. We did have a finch family but the crows and pigeons crowded them out and would not let them feed. I had to go out and supervise. Might try again.

8:40 am

Just read this Annie:

8:41 am

car.eeyore

Selective feeding is another way to control the kinds of birds that eat at your feeders. Generally, bully birds do not like safflower or nyjer (thistle) seeds. By offering just those seedsâ€”and not wild bird seed mixesâ€”only finches, chickadees, nuthatches, cardinals and grosbeaks will come to the feeders to dine

8:41 am

Anniebrook

ignore that, please

8:42 am

welki

you're pretty high up, too, annie - you have a balcony?

Nef

Good Afternoon Everyone. I didn't have time yesterday to finish the grid; now that I have the time; it's a small grid.

2:11 pm

MollyL

Min, it is a hard law to enforce and a lot of people do that because they want to bury their pet close to them.

2:13 pm

Nef

We've buried 2 dogs & 2 cats in our back yard over the past 24 years. I don't know why they say you can't bury pets in your yard unless it's because people don't bury them deep enough?

2:52 pm

MollyL

Animals, and people, used to be buried directly in the ground all the time.

2:59 pm

Dogs, cats, hamsters, budgies, even (God help us) a Vietnamese Pot Bellied Pig all interred in the grounds of Chez Soodle. Each with a small cross made out of lollypop sticks.

3:06 pm

Anniebrook

Hi Soodle at Soodle Semetary

3:08 pm

Soodle

Lol Annie.... Each interrmemt had a ceremony accompanying it. My favourite bittersweet memory was Sarah intoning ' Ashes to Ashes, Dusters to Dusters'....

3:09 pm

Anniebrook

Yes, we have had a few burials too

3:10 pm

Soodle

Without fail - every single time a pet had died here, I SWEAR no more pets..... Huh!

3:12 pm

Anniebrook

3:22 pm

Minveryork

Just got back from going to the store and I see people are STILL talking about burying pets. I never thought that my clue would spark so much convo. Anyway, my backyard is not a pet cemetary yet, thank goodness.

3:23 pm

MollyL

Min, you never know what will spark conversation here.
: D

3:24 pm

MollyL

And as I was reminded by a funeral director, there is no A in cemetery.

3:25 pm

Well done Annie. Enjoy the rest of your day.
