Hello to all.

7:53 am

bichon

Hi Judi, Scrabs

7:54 am

Scrabbler

My sister is driving here from NJ and we will hike and kayak for 6 days. AND the weather forecast is great. Yay!

7:56 am

bichon

Yeah! We're going to have a heat wave starting Sunday

7:57 am

Judi

And the A/C is out in my section of the office!

7:57 am

Scrabbler

Yes, temps into the mid-80s.

7:57 am

Scrabbler

Oh, no, Judi.

7:57 am

bichon

Ugh, couldn't concentrate

7:58 am

Judi

Scheduled to be fixed the first part of the week. I guess Monday will be wear my bikini to work day. (That would be a horror show).

Don't have one. Belly too big

7:59 am

Scrabbler

Are fans available?

8:00 am

Judi

Yes, Scrabbs. I've already told them, they don't a menopausal woman getting over-heated. The hot flashes are bad enough.

8:01 am

8:02 am

Scrabbler

Hi Eva and Baby K.

8:02 am

Judi

Hi, Eva!

8:03 am

EvaNadine

whats up, Doc? ;)

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Appliance repairman just left after "fixing" my fridge. The noise was coming from the ice maker which had accidentally been switched on, probably when I packed things into the freezer.

8:06 am

Judi

So, there really wasn't a problem with your fridge?

8:07 am

Scrabbler

No, haha. And the noise from my clothes washer was undetermined. He said to leave things alone because the machine is 33 years old and works fine.

8:07 am

Judi

Well, there was money well spent. Pffth.

8:08 am

Scrabbler

$75 total.

8:09 am

Scrabbler

Appliances, cars, teeth, computer, body..when things go wrong it is bad and expensive.

8:09 am

Judi

Easiest job that guy will have all day. Perhaps it's time ti invest in a new washer, though.

8:10 am

Scrabbler

It's working fine and squeaks during spin-down only, so I am keeping it.

and Haz popped in too.

9:45 am

bichon

Missed her, darn

9:45 am

bichon

Yes, and I see Haz on QP

9:46 am

EvaNadine

i think sometimes the newer players have different enough personalities that sometimes the older players decide to move elsewhere so as not to create waves

9:46 am

Judi

Do9/66, De9/72.

9:46 am

periwinkle

ah, I do not play that. I started playing serpentine which is challenging since it is fast. also the game keeps score and there are diffent colors for different rankings.

9:46 am

Judi

*** surfs the wave, hangs ten ***

9:47 am

fuzzybunny

If you don't mind, what is "QP?"

9:47 am

periwinkle

Quote Puzzler? I think

9:47 am

periwinkle

I want to check it out but I am already addicted to enough games

9:47 am

fuzzybunny

I was wondering if it was a good word game.

9:48 am

Judi

Found the De9!!!

9:48 am

periwinkle

9:48 am

Scrabbler

I love QP--10 different and challenging word games every day.

9:49 am

periwinkle

now I must check into it. if I get addicted I will blame it on you Dr. Scrabbs :)

9:49 am

periwinkle

I am blaming ruru for serpentine

9:49 am

Judi

D + not beginning + everyone is a c*****.

9:49 am

fuzzybunny

Thanks, I will take a look at it. If I play it will be as fuzzybunny.

9:49 am

periwinkle

are you checking serpentine?

9:50 am

EvaNadine

i have an old friend to blame for my babble addiction - she no longer plays + hasnt for years, but ive stuck around!

9:50 am

Judi

How could anyone quit Babble?

9:50 am

periwinkle

and everyone is a what? Judi?

9:50 am

Judi

Un6/24: one who takes things apart.

9:53 am

MLFAN17

9:54 am

Judi

There is no Ev8. There is an EL8.

9:56 am

MLFAN17

de9 isn't working for me more help please?

9:57 am

Judi

DE9: D + not beginning + a c***** (one who gives a bad review).

9:58 am

EvaNadine

hints for the bottom-center D?

9:58 am

MLFAN17

judi does the word end in c?

9:58 am

Judi

Yes, MLF.

9:59 am

MLFAN17

MLFAN17

nbs. I was missing a letter

10:00 am

MLFAN17

both of the di4's I have begin with the same 3 letters

10:01 am

Judi

DE9 starts at first D in 2nd row.

10:03 am

fuzzybunny

Just came back from quote puzzler, tough game! Similar to an anacrostic, but without the clues.

10:03 am

Scrabbler

There are 10 individual word games on QP each day, and each game requires a special skill.

10:04 am

MLFAN17

a special skill?

10:04 am

Scrabbler

Each game challenges your brain differently.

10:05 am

fuzzybunny

Ah, I only checked out the quote puzzle, need to go back and look at the others. Thanks, Scrabbler.

10:05 am

MLFAN17

ohhhh:)

10:05 am

Scrabbler

And I finally passed halfway so I am done. I need to clean the house for my sister's arrival in 4 hrs.

10:06 am

MLFAN17

10:06 am

Judi

Finally got through the Vs. Uhg!

10:08 am

MLFAN17

10:08 am

Judi

10:27 am

Haz1558

I knew it was trouble when even the first five minutes yielded very little.

10:28 am

Haz1558

I kind of know how you feel, Soodle. My parents are keeping me very busy too. But I do not mind :-)

4:57 pm

NANCY

clue for the fi 7/40 please

4:58 pm

Bugsaw

My father was pretty funny toward the end of his life. He worried that "at this rate I will only have enough money to last until I am 105!" I had to break it to him that there was an alternative to poverty... He could move in with my sister.

4:59 pm

zoozzoom

Fi + most of the head bug + ends in the word for when people take their own lives (Sadly)

4:59 pm

Soodle

Bugs!!!! I'm off to Morocco (Morocco!!! How exotic is that???) with elder daughter next month. I am beside myself!

4:59 pm

Bugsaw

He was soothed and she was shocked but we all knew it wouldn't happen.

4:59 pm

Bugsaw

I do hope you both stay safe and have the most wonderful adventure in Morocco.

5:01 pm

Bugsaw

thanks for such consistantly good clues zooz

5:02 pm

The Fi 8 actually means to a person who kills his or her son or daughter. Nasty.

5:03 pm

zoozzoom

Means a person not to a person.

5:03 pm

NANCY

5:04 pm

zoozzoom

oops sorry. I am not seeing this screen very well.

5:04 pm

Soodle

Thats so relevant to me & my siblings right now!! My parents outgoings are exceeding their income by about â‚¬2,000 per month. Their account was dwindling alarmingly & we were all pretty worried. Right until my brother discovered another account with in excess of â‚¬100,000 in it!! Sheesh! They can live comfortably for another decade or so!!! :-)

5:04 pm

NANCY

it is fi 7-40

5:05 pm

Welcome, Nancy. Sorry for the confusion.

5:07 pm

NANCY

no prob, you always give good clues.

5:07 pm

Bugsaw

I am glad you are relieved off that financial concern Soodle. The best thing my father did was save enough so we could get them the best care and all of us could feel comfortable.

5:07 pm

zoozzoom

Would love to find an account in my name with a large amount of money in it, Soodle!

5:08 pm
