12:17 pm
JBsAnno
Ah, Judi's got you covered for the o's. There's several sa's related to a shiny slippery fabric.
12:18 pm
JBsAnno
All of the s's start with sa, except for the last - st 6/18.
12:18 pm
suefrad625
the o i have plays in the water
12:19 pm
JBsAnno
there are 4, 5, and 6 letter words, and only one sa7.
12:19 pm
suefrad625
got it. i was going up not over
12:20 pm
JBsAnno
The other o's - just change one vowel in the one you have, then pluralize it
12:21 pm
suefrad625
i have 8 s's and all start with the sa except the st also
12:22 pm
JBsAnno
One of the sa6 - a particular type of humor
12:22 pm

suefrad625
do any of the s's use the sometimes vowel?
12:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
hey jb!
12:31 pm
JBsAnno
Okay, if you take the first 3 letters of the wrap word, then add a 4th letter that makes it sound like a weapon, you will have sa45,sa6/21, and sa5/12, which is the plural of the first sa in this 3 word series.
12:32 pm
JBsAnno
No, only the fabric 6/24 one does
12:32 pm

Hey, TO! You keeping cool in this extended heat wave we got?

hahahaha the protesters were very orderly. a friend was shielding folks from the westboro nuts
12:35 pm
JBsAnno
Ooo, wtg, sue! Do you have the "to satisfy" sa4/4?
12:35 pm
JBsAnno
To that one, you can add a humpy letter for a 5/12
12:36 pm
JBsAnno
And then change the last vowel for another 4/4
12:36 pm
suefrad625

12:40 pm

12:40 pm

Okay, then thinking of what rolls, delete the last letter from that word, and add the first 3 letters of the sa not crazy
12:41 pm
JBsAnno
Yeesh, my clues are so specific...
12:41 pm
72 Temple Owl

we are just starting to get some rain (again!) and the temp is85 with 71% humidity, and someone reported 2 1/2 inch hailstones not too far from here. My guess is that the weatherman seriously understated the severity of this "rain"!

5:54 pm

On top of the veges i put pieces of chicken and then season it. i roast it. but i add some water to the pan before cooking it so there a lots of "gravy". after roasting it i take a piece of chicken, and put in large bowl and add the gravy and veges and then add more water and some more salt if needed and warm all in microwave as needed. it is so yummy. the onions, lots of them, give great flavor.

7:24 pm
lilliann
I can't get there and this will sound really awful but i don't want to be there as she doesn't remember me.I used to phone her every week before she went into a home and then after, but when she went into the home she didn't know who i was and would put the phone down on a desk in the office and walk away
7:25 pm
lilliann
Telegram... that's it, ty jac...She'll still be here for it....that's whats she's waiting for! :)
7:27 pm
Jacula
It's hard when a loved one forgets you, Lil, but remember that she's not doing it on purpose. When someone has dementia, their life and memories unravel like a piece of knitting and the memories go from newest first. I remember when my Dad's dementia really began to take hold and he forgot who my Mum was, calling her 'that nasty old woman who lives here' (only nasty in his eyes because she made him do stuff like getting up, dressing etc.) He thought I was my Mum for a while, as I was younger, and then he forgor both of us, only remembering his dead sisters and so on.
7:27 pm
lilliann
I want to remember her as she was, not as she is now
7:28 pm
Jacula
lil - you WILL remember her as she was but you might regret it if you don't see her now, even if she doesn't seem to know whether you are there or not. xx
7:29 pm
Jacula
But it's up to you how you deal with it, of course.
7:29 pm
lilliann
I know she's not doing it on purpose as i cared for people with dementia when i was 17
7:30 pm
Jacula
It's horrible watching someone disappear before your eyes, isn't it, Lil? Mourning them long before they're actually dead.
7:31 pm
lilliann
I won't regret it as i want to remember her as she was when we'd speak on the phone every week and she was 91/92 then.I haven't seen her since she was in her late 80's. My Mam told me that i shouldn't see her as she's not the same woman i knew
7:33 pm
lilliann
Caring for other peoples' mams',dads,'grandparents,' is different than your own.
7:34 pm
Jacula
Of course, Lil. x
7:34 pm
lilliann
It is Jac.This is going to sound awful but to me she is gone already.But i will still grieve again when she does go for real

It doesn't sound awful. That's how Mum and me felt about Dad. xxx

I can stay to clue for a while, if needed, but then I must get off to bed as I have physio (for my shoulder) this afternoon and also have to do comments and a judge's report for the short story competition I'm judging.
7:42 pm
lilliann
I still need too many as i started too late again but the bairn and i were in the garden until 8 and then she helped cook tea with me ..Bless her! Short story competition and how come you are judging it?
7:44 pm
Jacula
I'm judging it because I was asked to. LOL. I also get paid for doing so. Never turn paid work down and there is a clear winner, thank goodness.
7:46 pm
lilliann
No, money is always good!What does the winner get and what have you done to your shoulder?
7:49 pm
lilliann
Sorry Jac, i didn't realize that you are a writer.
7:50 pm
Jacula
Have you not been following me on FB, Lil? I've no idea what the winner gets - book tokens and points towards paying to enter the next competition, I think. It's a members only section of a writing group comp that sometimes does national comps. I've been sent the shortlist to judge as an impartial writer who is not a member of that club and lives nowhere near where it is.

Re the shoulder, I had a fall and dislocated my collar bone, ripping every tendon and ligament off that holds it down. It was left flapping about like half a coathanger. Waited a year for the repair op and now it will probably take 18 months - 2 years to get full movement of the arm back post-op.
