Good Evening, Everyone. I've just reached half way on this grid.
10:09 pm
RoundBarn
still here, Leslie Ann? Iive in Springfield, too.
10:10 pm
Nef
Hi RoundBarn! How are you these days?
10:11 pm
RoundBarn
hi, Nef! I finished Vol 4 three weeks ago, finally! You'll get word. I've been wanting to come to Mlps but no chance yet.
10:12 pm
Nef
YAY! You must feel relieved that Vol. 4 is finally done!!!
10:12 pm
RoundBarn
I follow you when I see you on chat (when I play--there are gaps--so I've kept up with some of your news.
10:13 pm
Nef
I understand. I've had gaps myself.
10:14 pm
RoundBarn
Even though the material is still superb. it became an albatross. So I am relieved. PLanning now an opening in Oct, and will send out notices to those not nearby.
10:14 pm
Nef
I just haven't seen you on for such a long time; I wondered if you were still working on Vol. 4 or if you'd quit playing anymore.
10:15 pm
Nef
And your cousin approved (or at least accepted it?)
10:16 pm
Nef
(You are still speaking to each other?)
10:16 pm
RoundBarn
I lurk a lot, notice when Rasta volunteers a word occasionally--usually play during morning coffee then get to work. You usually come on late at night. Ruru pops in and out all day. He is my favorite.
10:18 pm
RoundBarn
He's seen almost everything and has been great help. Talked to him for two hours Saturday. He's had a granddaughter in Atlanta who nearly died in an auto accident so he's been out of state a long time. I hope to see him in Nov. And Debby.
10:18 pm
Nef
LOL! I've told him that I can't think fast enough to keep up with him; usually but the time I sit down to play, I'm just tired.
10:20 pm
RoundBarn
I can'tmatch him in puns. He is a caring and compassionate man, in his posts to others.
10:20 pm
Nef
I'm glad he's been a help for you on this Volume. For a while there it seemed like you were afraid that it wouldn't get written or he'd object to it all.
10:20 pm
Nef
How is his granddaughter doing now?
10:21 pm
RoundBarn
Now you're talking about my cousin. I was talking about Ruru! Jerry and I worked through any rough spots. He too--my cousin--is a caring and compassionate man.
10:21 pm
Nef
Shh! ruru might get a big head if he sees that!;-)
10:23 pm
RoundBarn
The girl was abt 5 months in the hospital, but is now out, walking, will go back to school, and miraculously seems almost ok in her brain--speech, thioughts, etc. But it took a long time and espert care.
10:24 pm
Nef
Okay; sometimes our chatting covers 2 topics at once if we're responding to 2 posts by the same person. I thought it was your cousin whose granddaughter had the accident; and that's who you will see in November?
10:25 pm
RoundBarn
There are others I watch and like, too. I marvel at how fast some can speed through to fireworks.
10:27 pm
RoundBarn
Yes, the one you have met. Jerry,the Minneapolis couisin has the recovering grandchild. He doesn't play Babble, he doesn't even use a computer.
10:27 pm
Nef
same here. But I think we all play by our own rules; I think some people might always play with Lickety's list open whereas I refuse to check the list until over half way through the grid.
10:28 pm
Nef
Really? He doesn't use a computer? (maybe he's smart! ;-)
10:29 pm
Nef
Didn't his wife need surgery when I met them? Did she have bad knees or something? (I can't remember; that seemed so long ago)
10:29 pm
RoundBarn
I HOPE to get up in November. Jerry is a retired doctor and reads history constantly. He has Debby who orders tickets, texts the grandkids, etc. I envy him in a way, to be free of electronics.
10:30 pm
RoundBarn
She had knee surgurty twidce--first time it got infected so had to be re-done. Now she's ok.
10:32 pm
Nef
I'm with you about being free of electronics; but, then on the other hand; some of my best friends are internet friends from my nurses' private group.
10:32 pm
RoundBarn
signing off now--sometime I may intersect with the Springfield babbler, Leslie Ann. Goodnight, dear Nef, to you and yours. JJ
10:33 pm
Nef
Oh, wow! I had my knee replaced 2 years ago & it went well; the idea of getting an infection post-op and having to go through surgery again would be horrid!
10:33 pm
Nef
Good Night RoundBarn; it's good to "see" you again!
10:41 pm
