zoozzoom

I have 128 words but it is really slow going already!

4:52 am

zoozzoom

AN9 is compound word. Against + stories in a book.

4:52 am

MollyL

If these grids were easy to do, I don't think as many people would keep coming back day after day.

4:52 am

zoozzoom

OU8 not in + PT of jumped up into the air.

4:53 am

rubyfoo

Does that make us all masochists?

4:53 am

zoozzoom

That is very true, Molly. It is good these grids have some bite to them :-)

4:53 am

Thanks, Molly.

5:07 am

MollyL

Another ridiculous word, courtesy of Enable, the out dated word list

5:08 am

zoozzoom

Ah that means it will be a morewords word for me at some point then lol

5:21 am

MollyL

I don't believe that anyone finds the crazy, weirdly spelled, out dated words without help Zoom.

5:24 am

bichon

It's 53 degrees here. What happened?

5:25 am

MollyL

Mild winter, mild winter, mild winter

5:25 am

zoozzoom

I do fluke some which is nice but on the whole I would need some help at some point!

5:25 am

zoozzoom

Enjoy it while it lasts, Bichon!

5:26 am

zoozzoom

5:29 am

zoozzoom

5:47 am

rubyfoo

I have nbt and nbs + 97 words.

5:47 am

sukee

Good morning Ruby.

5:47 am

rubyfoo

I'll be back later to see if any clues have turned upin the chog

5:48 am

rubyfoo

((sukee)) How are you doing? Exhaustedfromthe Holiday?

5:48 am

sukee

Not so bad, didn't do that much over the holiday.

5:49 am

sukee

How are you?

5:49 am

bichon

Did anyone hear about fights that broke out in Malls across the US?

5:49 am

rubyfoo

This year was much better than last year, when husband and I were both so sick!

5:49 am

sukee

No bich, but I'm not surprised.

5:49 am

rubyfoo

((bichon)) no, I didn't hear that

5:50 am

sukee

Well, I'm been a bit under the weather and was not 100%

5:50 am

bichon

Saw it on CNN this morning. Staying away from large crowds is the sane thing to do

5:50 am

rubyfoo

There was a "fake news" report on Twitter that Britney Spears had died! The world is going crazy!

5:51 am

sukee

Sigh, bad enough with the people who are actually dying.

5:51 am

bichon

These fake news reports are getting out of hand

5:51 am

rubyfoo

It is really tempting to just stay in the house

5:51 am

sukee

Even though some don't trust mainstream media, I still trust them over Twitter and Facebook that is for sure :)

5:52 am

rubyfoo

Exctly, Sukee. At least they don't inttentionally misreport and lie

5:53 am

bichon

Trust no one as Fox Mulder says

5:53 am

sukee

Strangely enough, I also trust TMZ to report deaths. They pay people off to troll the hospitals.

5:54 am

rubyfoo

I only trust my babblee friends, other friends (here and there) and family

5:54 am

sukee

:)

5:54 am

rubyfoo

What is TMZ?

5:54 am

sukee

It is a celebrity website, pretty tacky but they seem to get the deaths right.

5:55 am

sukee

nbt

5:56 am

sukee

Anyway, doing laundry today. Back to real life.

5:56 am

rubyfoo

Speaking of which, I had heard of George Michael, but didn't know his music. Wrong generation, I guess

5:56 am

bichon

You and me both ruby

5:56 am

sukee

Really? I like a few of his songs.

5:57 am

sukee

I was big into 80s music :)

5:57 am

rubyfoo

I was surprised to learn that my doctor/friend FranÃ§oise, who is 61, likes groups like Led Zep and Deep Purple. Funny!

5:57 am

bichon

I was big into 50's music

5:58 am

rubyfoo

<-- loved disco (shameful)

5:58 am

sukee

I have always been big on music, love the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, etc.

5:58 am

rubyfoo

I liked everything, but missed pop of the 80's. Where was I??????

5:59 am

sukee

I don't know, the 80s is one of my favorite eras. With punk and New Wave. I was especially into English music in the 80s.

6:00 am

sukee

It was the time I went to my most concerts. Of course, I was also into Bruce Springsteen.

6:00 am

rubyfoo

I may havemy years wrong, but I used to run to punk -- X, the Police, Led Zep, the Clash

6:01 am

rubyfoo

Maybe I mixed up the years and it's the 90's I missed....

6:01 am

sukee

Those are late 70s, early 80s.

6:01 am

bichon

I'm a fuddy duddy. But I do like Blue Grass, anything by CCR, cajun, zydeco

6:01 am

sukee

:) Love CCR

6:01 am

rubyfoo

me, too

6:04 am

rubyfoo

I think both husband (1962-69Â°) and '84, then married 1997-2016) Discouragd my interest in popular music

6:05 am

rubyfoo

In between, I was a dancing queen LOL

6:06 am

sukee

Ah, I was single and free :) and I had a friend who was the same who came to concerts with me :)

6:06 am

sukee

The 80s were great, I used to go dancing every weekend.

6:07 am

sukee

Have to run, bbl. Have a great day if I don't see you.

6:07 am

rubyfoo

I used to go to salsa clubs, both in NY and Miami

6:08 am

rubyfoo

6:37 am

mattygroves

Thanks Kallia. I spent whole minutes trying to change it to the one of me and my daughter (taken on Christmas day) but it's not playing for me. As much as I like that Halloween picture, I'm bored of it now

6:37 am

ChampFit

I'm seeing a mother/daughter icon for you.

6:38 am

mattygroves

So weird. Because I'm not. Maybe in a day or so it'll show for me. I'll try a hard refresh. Caller, please hold.

6:38 am

Kallia

6:46 am

mattygroves

Ah hah! Cleared cache - that did the trick

7:49 am

Anniebrook

Now I can start my coffeemaker, brb

7:50 am

MollyL

Annie, I don't know how you get up and sit in front of Babble for as long as you do before benefit of coffee

7:52 am

Anniebrook

Here's the lowdown..I have to wait a 1/2 hour for a certain pill to kick in. So I trained myself to do that.

7:53 am

Anniebrook

I am now enjoying a good cup of coffee and a bagel.

7:58 am

Uneaixoise

good morning all

DI 6 - loud noise + brand of pineapple minus first vowel

9:10 am

sukee

Hi wv

9:11 am

Scrabbler

Guess what, bubba? I had a Weber A fx a few months ago, and have os trigonum syndrome as a result of the ankle injury. I learned a lot from the injury. 90% healed now.

9:11 am

bubba218

thank you, thats the first di6, I need the second one

9:12 am

sukee

Ty WV

9:12 am

bubba218

Scrabs, that's no fun. Do they want to excise the Os?

9:12 am

Scrabbler

Not yet. I have mild pain and crepitus with plantarflexion, but I can deal with it for now.

9:13 am

bubba218

Hopefully physical therapy will resolve the flexor longus hallucis tenosynovitis.

9:13 am

Scrabbler

Deltoid ligament is healing too vs stress fx. I hiked 3 miles down a mountain with the injury. Ouch. My ortho is great.

9:14 am

bichon

crepitus, sounds awful

9:14 am

Scrabbler

I also have dorsal pain with plantarflexion.

9:14 am

bubba218

Wow, you're a tough one. Iwould have curled up in a ball and cried.

9:14 am

poodletoes

I feel like you guys are making up words. LOL

9:14 am

Scrabbler

I am one badass, stoic chick.

9:15 am

bubba218

Anterior impingement syndrome, probably, PT again will help.

9:15 am

sukee

Lol, me too poodle :)

9:15 am

Scrabbler

I have not done PT yet, but I think it is time now.

9:15 am

bubba218

I'm a wooze

9:15 am

Scrabbler

Thanks for your input, bubba.

9:16 am

bubba218

NP, get better

9:16 am

wvteach

DI 6/24 (second one) at least on my - but don't have a list - compound word - tool used to catch fish

9:16 am

Scrabbler

I nearly fainted and puked after the injury and quickly laid down, but after 10 min I got up.

9:17 am

bubba218

Thanks wv, finished

9:17 am

Scrabbler

Yay Bubba!

9:17 am

bubba218

Ankle fractures hurt real bad, once the adrenaline stops flowing.

9:18 am

poodletoes

sounds terrible, scrabbler. wishes for full recovery

9:18 am

Scrabbler

Oh, yes! First X-ray, in Adirondacks was read as negative. Swelling, pain, and tenderness persisted so I saw orthopedist 4 wks later and fracture was obvious.

9:20 am

bubba218

seeing a good deal of microtrabecular fractures, that I would have missed if not for the MRI

9:21 am

Scrabbler

Magnification of initial X-ray showed start of fx along edge of fibula.

9:21 am

Scrabbler

Repeat X-ray 4 wks later had large gap in fibula--Weber A.

9:22 am

bubba218

Problem is too many ER's treat ankle injuries too lightly with just an Ace. Most shjoule be immobilized or at least put into a Cam boot.

9:23 am

bubba218

Hopefully filling so no delayed or non-union

9:24 am

Scrabbler

I learned a lot of anatomy again, and orthopedics. Then at 8 week check, with the posterior pain and X-ray, I learned about os trigonum.

9:24 am

Scrabbler

Yes, calcification is occurring.

9:26 am

bubba218

Lots of stuff down below the knee, who would have thought???

9:26 am

Scrabbler

And my ongoing problems are related to strain/sprain not the fx.

9:28 am

Scrabbler

Actually both dorsi- and plantarflexion cause dorsal ankle pain.

9:28 am

bubba218

Does take a while, I usually tell my patients 6-8 months with sprain, and 12-18 months S/P fx, especially if ORIF

9:29 am

Scrabbler

I have been hiking despite the discomfort, and will soon return to XC-skiing and snowshoeing.

9:30 am

bubba218

PT very important to get that ankle moving. Just had to scope a man who had severe synovitis because he never got he ankle moving.

9:31 am

Scrabbler

I wear a Donjoy brace for those activities. I do lots of ROM.

9:31 am

bubba218

Great, well on your way

Seriously..."flexor longus hallucis tenosynovitis"

we are paid per syllable, what do you expect

9:35 am

dan2bit

I imagine so, Scrabbs :-)

9:36 am

Got to go, see you on the grid!

Scrabbler

Hi welki of the northwest.

My GP [lots younger than me] is retiring. Sob

9:48 am

rolin

is the ou8 a compound word?

9:48 am

Judi

Doesn't that kill you, Bich? My doctor is exactly the same age as me and he is "cutting back his hours while he moves toward retirement".

9:49 am

Judi

For the record, I'm 52. Sob, indeed.

9:49 am

bichon

He's probably no older than 60. He's very much in demand. Probably wants to retire to golfing ccountry

9:50 am

Apparently it all depends on what you had when you were little. they gave some of the American chocolate to a few American people and they preferred that one to ours.

1:33 pm

MLFAN17

bichon so you are not allowed to have any of it right?

1:33 pm

zoozzoom

I think it all depends on how much cocoae is in the bar. the higher the more bitter.

1:33 pm
