hello again. cant sleep

4:10 am

rubyfoo

Bonjour! That is a pefect size grid!

4:11 am

rubyfoo

No e-mail since last week and my techie friend is sick......

4:12 am

rubyfoo

Diving in!

5:32 am

ursh

I am not sure if I am just stupid - but this grid is tough

5:34 am

MollyL

This is a challenging game. That is why people play. I don't think anyone is stupid for finding any of these grids tough.

5:34 am

sukee

It does not flow as easily as some larger grids I have seen, that is for sure.

5:35 am

ursh

oh good - feel better now

5:38 am

sukee

Well, I've gotten to nbt

5:51 am

5:56 am

rubyfoo

l'm back. The gardener is here to plant my tomatoes and the border "cheats" and the big geraniums in ports on the deck.

5:56 am

rubyfoo

l'm very happy!

5:56 am

rubyfoo

pots not ports*

5:57 am

rubyfoo

He brought his stepson with him, an adorable little boy who helps a little and who is very respectful of Rufe.

5:58 am

rubyfoo

coal

5:58 am

rubyfoo

sorry

5:58 am

rubyfoo

l'll be quiet

5:58 am

ursh

Always nice that people teach their children to be respectful of dogs - much safer that way

5:59 am

ursh

my grandson, when he was little, thought all dogs were like his own and often pushed the boundaries with strange dogs - very scary - fortunately he is older and wiser now but still has an attraction to animals

6:00 am

rubyfoo

He's never seen a chow chow before; they are quite rare here

6:01 am

rubyfoo

l explained to hiu that the dog must approach first and only then, he can offer his hand

6:01 am

ursh

We dont see many here in SA - too hot I think and they then need to be shaved which spoils their good looks

6:03 am

rubyfoo

They stay in the shade when it's hot but l would never shave one. Most of their beautyncomes fromtheir fur.

6:06 am

rubyfoo

And the fur protects them both from,the cold (Raffie sleeps outside ofteh when it's way below freezing) and from the heat, but it's not often that it's warmer than 28C here.

6:09 am

ursh

Here in a Durban summer often over 32C with very high humidity - so not good for woolly dogs

6:22 am

rubyfoo

They would have to stay indoors with airconditioning

6:40 am

markbowers7

can anybody clue the ta8?

6:40 am

ursh

do you have the ta4/4 just before ?

6:40 am

markbowers7

not yet

6:41 am

ursh

if you do just add a cooking utensil and plural

6:41 am

ursh

ta 7&8 are palm trees

6:41 am

ursh

or rather a palm and plural

6:47 am

rubyfoo

olea

6:47 am

rubyfoo

Scrabbler

Anyone here?

7:30 am

LuvWordGames

Hi Scrabs

7:30 am

Scrabbler

Hi LWG. How are you today?

7:30 am

rubyfoo

Hellio scrabs abd luv

7:30 am

LuvWordGames

Good thanks, going kayaking this afternoon so all is well. How about you?

7:31 am

Scrabbler

Hi Ruby and pups.

7:31 am

LuvWordGames

Hi ruby

7:31 am

rubyfoo

l ignore Hannag when she comes in as l disapprove of her beig in here. lf l was her mother, l'd forbid it

7:32 am

rubyfoo

One night, there was a man asking questiins about her.

7:32 am

Scrabbler

She is a child?

7:32 am

rubyfoo

l think its dangerous for a Young girl

7:32 am

72 Temple Owl

ruby, we have had people her age here before. for the most part, people exercised forebearanne when teens were in chat. it worked.

7:33 am

rubyfoo

Yes, l think she's 15!

7:33 am

72 Temple Owl

scrabbler would remember

7:33 am

Scrabbler

Babble is a great educational game, but, yes, kids need supervision and guidance in chat logs.

7:33 am

72 Temple Owl

but then, chat is very different now.

7:34 am

Scrabbler

Remember mouse? He was hilarious and just 9 or 10. His grandmother was a Babbler.

7:34 am

rubyfoo

l don't think it should be encouraged. A stalker could be lurking and she's too naive to distiguish friendliness from something more siinister

7:34 am

72 Temple Owl

i was thinking of miyavi fan

7:35 am

72 Temple Owl

i did not see what you did, ruby. a non registered player?

7:35 am

rubyfoo

Maybe l'm too cynical, but when l saw the man "Z something" asking about her, it gave me the creeps

7:35 am

rubyfoo

yes, "z" wasn't registered

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

was it a registered player?

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

how did you know it was a man?

7:36 am

rubyfoo

He asked one of the women who chats with her; happily, she ignored him

7:36 am

rubyfoo

That's funny -- l didn't think of a female stalker

7:37 am

72 Temple Owl

if it was that disturbing, i hope it was reported.

7:37 am

rubyfoo

Does her mother know she plays?

7:38 am

rubyfoo

Imagine a lonely girl waiting for her bus, killing time, and a "friendly" stranger chats her up

7:38 am

72 Temple Owl

i don't know. i have never had a conversation with her and frankly, do not think personal questions like that would be appropriate.

7:41 am

rubyfoo

Perhaps having been a small-town teacher, l've become overly cautious about children

7:42 am

72 Temple Owl

yes.

7:43 am

72 Temple Owl

but remember - the internet cuts both ways. no one knows who anyone is.

7:47 am

rubyfoo

Has anybody suggested to her to be careful?

7:48 am

Scrabbler

116 left. Maybe I will return tonight. Enjoy your day.

7:48 am

rubyfoo

Bye scrabs

Hello, l'm back. The garden guy, Gilles, has been here most of the day, planting tomatoes and geraniums and various plants in pots on the deck and in the border.

9:42 am

rubyfoo

9:44 am

rubyfoo

lt's not that so much as l'm afraid of falling and lying on the ground 'til the next day when somebody comes.....

9:44 am

TraderKate

Hi car :)
Youwere on the phone a lot ruby, I'm sure people just assume that your e-mail is dtill nonfuncyional. There's always snail mail...

9:45 am

rubyfoo

The steps down are very dangerous, mossy and without anything to grip

9:45 am

TraderKate

I see, that's rotten ruby - I knew you had strength issues, didn't realise that stability was a problem :(

9:45 am

rubyfoo

But the garden is starting to be pretty again and th wistria look and smell beautiful!

TraderKate

Love the wisteria, what colour is yours?

9:59 am

rururocks

ruby must not have stones near the stairway

10:01 am

TraderKate

maybe she should plant some hemp... then she'd ifnd a way to get down there ;)

10:04 am

rururocks

then her walkway would go to pot

10:05 am

TraderKate

she'd sit in the garden and never leaf.

10:06 am

rururocks

then she'd be in the weeds

10:07 am

TraderKate

But the bees would be buzzing, so it's all good

10:13 am

rururocks

not just the bees would be buzzing

10:13 am

TraderKate

10:20 am

10:40 am

TraderKate

Hi harp, today's grid is a bit more critter friendly than yesterday.

10:41 am

TraderKate

Good luck Aloy!

10:46 am

rururocks

10:48 am

TraderKate

Commissioners are likely all sitting on the fens... public vs la 4 of oversight

10:49 am

TraderKate

So much of this gets bogged down in the courts. Takes fjorever to get one little thing done

I swept and mopped the bathroom and kitchen floors this morning.

11:16 am

periwinkle

that is all the housekeeping I am doing today

11:17 am

TraderKate

Ambitious peri... has spring brought the spring cleaning chores? (I am acoiding them)

11:17 am

NatashaW

I did my Joan Rivers thing (you know, the joke about cleaning every 6 months) yesterday and can't stop admiring my own handiwork. We vac pretty regularly due to hairy dog and cat, but dusting... ugh.

11:17 am

NatashaW

Ooh Peri you didn't invite me over?!?!

11:18 am

periwinkle

maybe next time, Natasha

11:18 am

periwinkle

I mop once a month (usually) when the weather gets warmer I do it less. much prefer to be outside

11:18 am

NatashaW

Actually my GI doc wants me to try the FODMAPS diet but I see it prohibits mushrooms so that's a non-starter. Must find another method to get things back to normal :-)

11:19 am

periwinkle

FODMAPS diet?

11:19 am

NatashaW

Gotta get my fungi!!

11:19 am

periwinkle

I can get it out myself, Natasha.

11:19 am

periwinkle

tough grid. 148 left

11:19 am

NatashaW

Look it up... it's for folks experiencing gastro distress. You spend 2 weeks eliminating all possible foods that could be the cause, then you add them back in 1 at a time to see what triggers you.

11:20 am

NatashaW

56 left here but yes, a babblet-rich puzzle.

11:20 am

TraderKate

It is a tough one peri.

rururocks

my understanding is that he has been drinking alcohol on a failing liver and kidney

12:08 pm

rururocks

or related to abuse of alcohol.. it's very sad to read about it.

12:08 pm

cybernan

oh dear -- poor cos - he must feel terrible that he was unable to stop the abuse

12:09 pm

cybernan

even though the will to quit has to come from the addicts themselves

12:09 pm

rururocks

Yes.. I think this one was kind of out of control.. My brother is sort of the same way.. no bottom

12:09 pm

cybernan

sorr to hear that, ru

rururocks

alcoholism runs in my family.. it's something I'm really careful about

12:59 pm

cybernan

12:59 pm

MLFAN17

I keep thinking lasso but no double s/

1:00 pm

When you think whip, think pirates.

MLF thin k eye la**

1:00 pm

pitt

1:01 pm

jzw

not a word :)

1:02 pm

MLFAN17

ti 5/18?

1:05 pm

rubyfoo

MLF: l said to the chog that l thought that HHannah shouldn't be in this game because, one night, a non-member was asking questions about her

1:05 pm

MLFAN17

ruby ohhh that. yeah its awkward

1:06 pm

rubyfoo

and she seems innocent and too vulnerable

1:06 pm

MLFAN17

that could be ruby

1:06 pm

rubyfoo

and th others said l was wrong

1:06 pm

TraderKate

TI 5/18 add most of a fresh body op water

1:06 pm

rubyfoo

but if l ws her mother, l wouldn't allow it.

1:06 pm

MLFAN17

ty kate

1:07 pm

magazinemom

TY kate. I know someone who has that as a last anem. weird.

1:07 pm

rubyfoo

l'm too old-fashioned, maybe, anyway,l guess it's not my business or my problem

1:08 pm

MLFAN17

we just have to watch our p's and q's when we know she is in here

1:08 pm

TraderKate

Not sure what you mean by nonmember, ruby. Need to at least sign up to write in chog... so not a "pro"?

1:09 pm

rubyfoo

<-- getting off my soapbox now

1:09 pm

MLFAN17

ruby non member we are all members just some pay some dont

1:09 pm

rubyfoo

not registered, not a pro? Since my memory is gone, l don't remember how l signed up

1:10 pm

rubyfoo

l just thought "Z" sounded creepy

1:10 pm

MLFAN17

someone paid for mine but i haven't used expert for quite some time now

1:10 pm

TraderKate

Babble is the place for the soapbox. No need to get down. I don't see her for more than a few minutes - if at all.

1:10 pm

rubyfoo

Good night

1:11 pm

TraderKate

Leaving ruby? don't go!

1:11 pm

rubyfoo

l've never used expert or the list -- no idea about either -- and l still am without e-mail!

1:12 pm

cybernan

I think it is a shame if this chog is not safe for young people and we should be responsible enough to watch our language and avoid inappropriate topics when they are here.

1:12 pm

TraderKate

Poor ruby. You had techie friend that was going to help with e-mail. When do they come?

1:12 pm

rubyfoo

My "helper" is leaving; l'll try to come back but l am always critical of people who hog the chog!

1:12 pm

rubyfoo

She wound up in the hospital on Sunday

1:13 pm

TraderKate

uh oh.... :(

1:14 pm

rubyfoo

When people discuss their sex lives, as they often do in the morning, it is exactly when Hannah comes on while waiting for her school bus

1:14 pm

TraderKate

If chog is quiet, I see no harm in chatting.

1:15 pm

TraderKate

Oh.... didn't realise that. Haven't been on too much in the mornings.

1:36 pm

gemini_J13

thank you for being concerned rubyfoo

1:40 pm

mattygroves

Evening all! How is everyone? Just for a change, I'm just sayin' hi - not after clues (yet) :)

1:44 pm

TraderKate

Hi matty and gemini, how are you today?

1:45 pm

mattygroves

Not bad, considering - had to have a wisdom tooth removed on Saturday, which was less than fun, but not as bad as it might be, given it was already loose - I do have some fun times ahead treating gum disease though. But that's enough of that! How are you?

1:47 pm

TraderKate

pretty good here; just getting ready to dart out for a quick bit of shopping. The sun is shining!!!! :D

1:48 pm

mattygroves

We had rain and wind today, high of 6 (C). Brr

1:48 pm

TraderKate

Having a wisdom tooth out is not fun... is it very sore n ow? :(

1:49 pm

mattygroves

It's...uncomfortable and swollen. Not as bad as it might be. I'm working from home tomorrow to go to the dentist to check it's all good and to have the rest cleaned

1:52 pm

TraderKate

We are up to 13 here (only 2-3 yesterday) will be 19 by Wed.!
be careful - no drinking with straws, nothing too hot or cold, and gargle with salt water. Swelling will take a while to go down, but should feel a bit better by tomorrow. Can you take ibuprofen or aspirin for it to take down swelling?

1:52 pm

TraderKate

I only have a couple minutes left before I have to dash...

1:53 pm

mattygroves

Yep, taking ibuprofen and paracetamol (tylenol), and antibiotics

1:53 pm

mattygroves

the kind you can't drink on, dammit

1:53 pm

mattygroves

I had one removed last year so know the drill :)

1:53 pm

mattygroves

Dry socket would not be fun

1:54 pm

TraderKate

Well, rats! Alcohol would help <wink>

1:55 pm

MLFAN17

i have been without email for a while now. A lot of my passwords don't work that were saved at some point. Thankfully on this site i just click on the link and i am in

1:55 pm

mattygroves

It would ;) My liver will thank me for a week off though

1:55 pm

sarcasticah

dry socket is no fun. I had it in all four sockets after getting my wisdom teeth out.

1:55 pm

TraderKate

I am sorry I can't stay matty - if I miss this bus I am sunk. They only run every 2 hours :(
feel better soon... and I will do my "no dry socket" booga booga for you!

1:56 pm

TraderKate

:D poor liver

1:56 pm

mattygroves

Yeech. I didn't get it when I had the right one out, so far, with the left one, so good though there's more swelling

1:56 pm

mattygroves

Have a great day Kate!

1:57 pm

TraderKate

sorry, relly must fly, Bye - HAGN!

1:57 pm

MLFAN17

ho 6/21?

1:57 pm

mattygroves

I too will dash - Only Connect (a British quiz show - a TOUGH British quiz show) is nearly on and it's the final.

1:57 pm

mattygroves

Talk later!

2:01 pm

Hi, Zoom

2:02 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Jaxx :-) How are you keeping?

2:02 pm

MLFAN17

hi jaxx

2:02 pm

MLFAN17

hi zoom

2:02 pm

MLFAN17

ty zoom

2:03 pm

jaxx7

Hi, MLF

2:03 pm

jaxx7

I am not doing that well but my appointments have been delayed so it's a case of grin and bear it.

2:05 pm

zoozzoom

Typical. Hope you can be seen soon.

2:06 pm

jaxx7

So do i. Sitting down for any length of time is very uncomfortable so I tackle Babble in little bits.

2:10 pm

zoozzoom

If you win the lottery you could go private and get seen right now.

2:11 pm

jaxx7

Like a lot of other folk we have given up on the lottery. It doesn't seem kosher

2:12 pm

zoozzoom

I know that is what my father and I say. It did not help when they added extra balls to make it even harder to even get three numbers.

2:13 pm

cybernan

hi again - back for the last 10

2:14 pm

jaxx7

Even the amount you win has gone down and there are rollovers that don't amount to anything like as much as they did

2:14 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Nan.

2:14 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Nan

2:14 pm

zoozzoom

Plus it is now Â£2.50 per ticket.

2:15 pm

cybernan

ca 6/21 please?

2:15 pm

zoozzoom

I'm not greedy just give me around Â£30 million and that will do me fine!

2:15 pm

jaxx7

has it gone up again? that's probably to make up for the drop in takings.

2:16 pm

jaxx7

You sound just like my husband.

2:16 pm

zoozzoom

Well it is Â£2.50 for the Euro lottery which we do. Gave up on the UK lottery years ago.

2:16 pm

harpjane

What are the stats for the 8 please?

2:17 pm

zoozzoom

CA 6/21 CA + opp or more (first three letters) + vowel

2:18 pm

zoozzoom

Take care, Jaxx! Nice to see you.

zoozzoom

I need to get a meal down me. Happy babbling everyone!

2:27 pm

cybernan

2:27 pm

zoozzoom

I turn the sound off when it comes on, Nan. Same with the insurance adverts lol

2:28 pm

zoozzoom

*poof*

2:28 pm

cybernan

we get it on our computers, but not so much on the news yet --- but we do the same whenever trump comes on...

2:29 pm

cybernan

bye everyone - back for the flip if I'm still up.

2:40 pm

MehNameIsHannah

5:38 pm

MehNameIsHannah

also, i know how to handle myself

5:39 pm

MehNameIsHannah

i am not naive! i know how to distinguish friendliness from something else, i am not quick to trust someone they have to earn it

5:42 pm

MehNameIsHannah

i know you still aren't here ruby, but i have to get this out too, you shouldn't be quick to judge someone, i used to be that naive, but i know differently now

5:42 pm

MehNameIsHannah

you really shouldn't be quick to judge someone by their age, or anything for that matter

5:43 pm

MehNameIsHannah

and i dont say where in nc i live

5:48 pm

ChampFit

She was concerned about you, Hannah. I hope you aren't offended, because she's right. Too many weirdos out there.

5:49 pm

MehNameIsHannah

i know there are, but i am offended because she judged me too quick

5:53 pm

MehNameIsHannah

that was my soapbox for today

5:53 pm

MehNameIsHannah

i have to go now

5:53 pm

MehNameIsHannah

NatashaW

phew, what a slog... only s's and t's left, but yet there are 22 of them (!). Me, I'm ADD and prefer a modest grid so I can be a perfectionist and finish while yet having a life.

6:09 pm

MollyL

Wouldn't that be OCD?
: D

6:10 pm

NatashaW

lol, ADD plus OCD=ODD!!

6:27 pm

MollyL

ODD, great combination. *Sprinkles a little lavender in the chat to rid it of the offense*

6:30 pm

MollyL

There are COPPA rules for chat forums (Children's On Line Privacy Act. I'm not sure this forum is monitored enough to comply. I'm also not sure I believe that the poster in question is really a teenager.
