good morning all

1:13 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs, Sprite

1:14 am

Lizlin

Hope all's well with you.

1:14 am

sprite

hi Liz *hugs* I am okay, overall, thanks. How are you and your beloved doing?

1:15 am

Lizlin

We're fine. Just booked flights for a family wedding next year in the UK. Flying visit though.

1:16 am

sprite

wow, that is quite a journey for a wedding!

1:16 am

Lizlin

Exciting and looking forward to the wedding but could well do without going to the UK again so soon.

1:16 am

Lizlin

It's very important to us.

1:17 am

sprite

I think it is wonderful you do that. Wish we had a Scotty to beam you there and back though :D

1:17 am

Lizlin

There are 4 weddings that we want to go to over the next few years. 2 are already on the cards i.e. engaged already and then there will be 2 more. 2 in the UK and 2 in Canada. These are really important to us.

1:18 am

sprite

you will be travelling a lot then.

1:19 am

Lizlin

Well we've only got a fixed date for one. Hopefully the 2nd won't be until 2021 and like I said, the others not on the horizon yet.

1:19 am

sprite

as long as they give you plenty of time to plan, and they spread it out a little :D

1:19 am

Lizlin

Planning's not the issue! Saving up is!

1:20 am

sprite

sure is! Flying is darn expensive.

1:20 am

Lizlin

Sure is and the exchange rate is rubbish and getting worse right now.

1:22 am

sprite

still, would be great if you could be present at all of them, and forever enjoy the memories (and pictures).

1:23 am

Lizlin

We really hope to be. Family is important to us.

1:24 am

sprite

if the relations are good, family is so very important. I am sorry our families are not like that at all. But I would do about anything for my friends, so I guess that is another kind of family :)

1:24 am

Lizlin

That's the important kind.

1:25 am

Lizlin

You know the old cliche - you can choose ....

1:25 am

sprite

my sister's 50th birthday will be in september and we are invited to a dinner with both my father and my mother there... I am kinda glad I am in germany that weekend and can't possibly make it.

1:25 am

sprite

so true. Friends are the family one chooses, right?

1:25 am

Lizlin

I'm sure there are other weddings of the children of friends that we'd love to go to but not like these ones though.

1:26 am

Lizlin

I understand how uncomfortable that would've been for you but it's a shame if you have a good relationship with your sister.

1:26 am

Lizlin

On a different note, I've just started reading the Deadman's Cross books - enjoying it.

1:27 am

Lizlin

It being the one I'm reading because I see I wrote books!

1:27 am

sprite

it is never easy between us. She still has to come visit us in the caravan, so that is since february. And I asked her to come and visit me when I was sitting with two ankles in plaster and she said no time, and never even called.

1:27 am

sprite

lol yes :D

1:28 am

Lizlin

OK - so not so close.

1:28 am

sprite

no, I guess the conclusion is inevitable and I am about ready to accept the fact and let it go. Just enjoy her company when we do visit and for the rest focus on my friends.

1:29 am

Lizlin

Sounds like a good idea.

1:29 am

sprite

so it is great to hear you talk about your family! Makes me feel good, that some families are worth travelling all over the world for.

1:30 am

Lizlin

I think mine is, so I guess I'm lucky.

1:32 am

sprite

it is a blessing, and worth putting effort into for sure.

1:35 am

sprite

of course, I found a soul sister in australia, who has travelled over the world just to be together, so I am not complaining :D

1:36 am

Lizlin

Like I said before - you can choose ...

1:36 am

sprite

you are so very right

1:36 am

Lizlin

Anyway, got to go. Lovely to catch up. Hugs and have a great weekend.

1:37 am

sprite

you too! *hugs* for the both of you

1:48 am

sprite

to you all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.
*leaves hug in chog for rose to find*

Judi

Hiyas, kiddos!

1:56 pm

MollyL

And how is the stellar recuperating woman?

1:57 pm

Judi

Had to give up the crutches, Molls. My hands hurt so bad. I've taken to crawling, which is working out fairly well. Good to get eye level with the pets.

1:59 pm

MollyL

Crutches are a bitch. Can't they get you one of those one-legged scooters?

2:01 pm

Judi

I now have the knee scooter. Which makes life easier, but I have three levels in my house. So, I keep the scooter on the main level. Hubby just purchased a portable ramp (via EBay). Once that's set up, I can safely ambulate from the kitchen to the garage, so I can get to my car, so I can get to work, etc.

2:03 pm

MollyL

Well, I'm glad you have some options. And I'm glad you have a husband who is seeing you through this. Continued good thoughts for quick healing.

2:03 pm

Judi

It's amazing how one little operation can screw up your whole life.

2:03 pm

Judi

Thank you, Molly. That is greatly appreciated.

2:06 pm

Judi

We're going out to dinner tonight. So, it'l be nice to escape the house. I'll just wheel around the parking lot of the restauran for amusement - make hubby nervous. ** insert evil laugh here **

3:49 pm

Judi

Last word has me stumped. El7/32?

3:49 pm

Judi

NM. Got it.

3:50 pm

rbud

was about to say an old church board babe... or something like that. :D

3:52 pm

Soodle

Care to share, Judi... anybody???

3:54 pm

rbud

mine was a hint of sorts - I often hear "respect your el*ers" - well, a female "el*er" would be? (ends in a woman's garment)

3:55 pm

rbud

and I think an "el*er" is another name for some unofficial church leaders. Thus my first hint.

3:56 pm

rbud

rururocks

don't forget the D rbud :D

3:57 pm

Soodle

You totally lost me, Rbud!! But I think thatâ€™s more my fault than yours....

3:58 pm

rbud

haha. left the D out because it's part of the word.

3:58 pm

Soodle

Ping!!! The penny dropped! Thank you.

3:58 pm

BzznBea

El + women's wear

4:00 pm

Soodle

Wow! My own dimness sometimes impresses even me!!

4:00 pm

rururocks

hope it makes cents now soodle

4:02 pm

Soodle

In my defense, Iâ€™m babbling by the dashboard light at Dublin Airport (apologies to Meatloaf). Awaiting a much delayed flight. ðŸ™„ðŸ™„ðŸ™„

4:02 pm

rbud

oooh, where you off to?

4:03 pm

rbud

or waiting on someone...

4:05 pm

Soodle

Waiting, Rbud. (Always waiting.....).

4:06 pm

rbud

<--- (wishes she were headed for Dublin airport!)

4:09 pm

Soodle

Think again Rbud.!!! Weather appalling. (Hence delayed flights). August in Ireland.... rain, high winds, more rain - The same every year, and every year we feign surprise & complain about it! Sheesh!!

4:10 pm

BzznBea

clue for el8 please?

4:11 pm

bojazz

it's a number...

4:11 pm

bojazz

4:12 pm

4:13 pm

BzznBea

Thanks...Too many distractions...

4:16 pm

Soodle

Count yourself lucky Bzznb. I donâ€™t have enough distractions! ðŸ™„

4:19 pm

BzznBea

I am usually appreciative of my busy life, Soodle. But this week has been an unusually hectic one with all my volunteer wrok.

4:20 pm

rururocks

that and zucchini cuddling ... .

4:21 pm

BzznBea

You got that right! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with Zoey Zucchini yet.

4:23 pm

BzznBea

I was thinking of carving her like a jack o lantern...

4:23 pm

rbud

okay, now that i finally see that "respect your el5s" is a word here, I see why ru poked fun at me for the "d" - somehow I didn't see it earlier. Babble blindness...

4:23 pm

rururocks

you could make a nice little zucchini boat for local squirrels to float the river

4:24 pm

BzznBea

F'n squirrels! I'm not so kind to them...

4:24 pm

Soodle

Okaaaaay.... I clearly missed the Zucchini cuddling conversation. But Hey!!! Whatever turns you on!! ðŸ¤£ðŸ¤£ðŸ¤£

4:25 pm

rbud

grate zucchini and freeze it with all good future intentions, then forget about it, like I do, haha. So much unmade zucchini and banana bread in my second freezer...

4:26 pm

BzznBea

LOL! I harvested over 100 pounds of zucchini this season. And that is conservative.

4:29 pm

BzznBea

Yes, we have grated and frozen, given them away, made bread, cakes, fritters, patties. I've proccessed 12 pints of zucchini salsa...I can't think of a darn thing left to do with it!

4:29 pm

rbud

that's the thing about zucchini - it's a big overproducer, haha

4:30 pm

rururocks

one plant can feed a neighborhood

4:30 pm

BzznBea

I've pulled all of them except one plant. I'm feeding the squash bugs with that one.

4:31 pm

BzznBea

Same with the cucumbers. Two hundred pounds of cucumber is enough for anyone!

4:48 pm

BzznBea

Don't have a 9, but I'm done for the day with 54 left...until next time!

4:50 pm

MollyL

100 pounds of zucchini, I can't even imagine.

5:13 pm

MollyL

Ru, people seem to never get your comment about how they clued the whole word except for one letter
: D

5:16 pm

rururocks

i know.. i keep trying though

5:18 pm

rururocks

it drives me a bit batty when people clue like ti + go4 less the vowel at the end

5:54 pm

MollyL

Sadly, I don't think people realize that they are giving 4 letters of the clue like that. Which might as well be just spelling the word out.

5:54 pm

MollyL

*4 letters of the word

6:03 pm

rbud

really? guess you all missed where I realized what I did... but whatever... glad I could be such a source of hilarity... (4:23 PM)

6:24 pm

rururocks

no I saw you did RB.. most people miss my joke.. that's what Molly was saying

6:39 pm

hurshy

i saw the show but didn't read the books

hurshy

tell me you're doing that with the list

10:34 pm

hurshy

cause i cannot find the last several words that fast ever

10:34 pm

hurshy

without the list

10:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

oh, yeah, i always use the list, but not till I find at least 2/3rds of the words

10:35 pm

hurshy

i go for 90%, but if it's a real hard grid i'll settle for 80-85%

10:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

pus, lately, i always save one easy word for my last word LOL

10:35 pm

hurshy

this one i've gotten over 95% though! good grid.

10:36 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

plus, not pus (!)

10:36 pm

hurshy

7 left, from 7 different tiles

10:36 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

wto hurshy!

10:36 pm

hurshy

i REALLY love that you accidentally said pus, though

10:36 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

wtg! (can't type anymore)

10:36 pm

hurshy

because we have a funny family joke that involves the word pus

10:37 pm

hurshy

want to hear the story?

10:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hey, glad you liked it

10:37 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

go4it

10:37 pm

hurshy

ok, so my grandfather, couple years ago, had one of those teddy bear shaped bottles of honey at the table and was having trouble opening it, idk why because i think he's used those all his life...

10:38 pm

hurshy

so then my mom takes it from him and squints at the lid and goes, "P-U-S, it says 'pus'"

10:38 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

LOL

10:38 pm

hurshy

so then i roll my eyes, take it from my mom, and say, "P-U-S-H, it says 'PUSH'", and open it.

10:38 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

LMOA

10:39 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

LMAO

10:39 pm

hurshy

so now my sister and i are always referring back to it

10:39 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i'll bet the lid was cement on by loads of old honey

10:40 pm

hurshy

nah, i think it was a fairly new bottle actually

10:40 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

Pus, mom! Pus!

10:41 pm

hurshy

unfortunately, she has not really much ability to laugh at herself, and always thinks you're laughing at her, when if she would just laugh too, we'd be laughing with her.

10:41 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

In my family we had a bunch of those tiny little fork-like things for gripping ears of corn. My mom kept them in an old plastic box that said on it, "for infections of the ear" so we always called those things "ear infectors" LOL

10:41 pm

hurshy

lol

10:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

every gamily has its own weird words and customs

10:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

gamily? OY

10:44 pm

hurshy

ok, getting list for the 7

10:44 pm

hurshy

first one, not a fish, woohoo

10:44 pm

hurshy

second one, fish, ok, 1/2 so far

10:45 pm

hurshy

third one, not really a fish, 2/3

10:45 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

go go go hurshy ! ! !

10:46 pm

hurshy

fourth one, kinda fishy, 2/4

10:46 pm

hurshy

it did twist in a weird, way, in my defense

10:46 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

this whole game is fishy LOL

10:47 pm

hurshy

fifth one, very fishy, 2/5

10:48 pm

hurshy

sixth one, plural fish, 2/6 and now i cannot come back and win the series, the grid has beaten me

10:48 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

what what what??

10:49 pm

hurshy

you know, like in basketball or whatever, a seven game series, if you're down 2/5 you could still come back and win if you win the last two games, but if you're down 2/6 then it's over

10:49 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

nope, ya lost me there

10:49 pm

hurshy

i had 7 words left, right?

10:49 pm

hurshy

my aim is for them not to be fishy

10:50 pm

hurshy

if they are fishy the grid wins and i lose

10:50 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i guess so

10:50 pm

hurshy

if they are not fishy i win

10:50 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

your rules do not resemble our Earth rules LOL

10:51 pm

hurshy

but once i got to only 2 unfishy out of 6, there's only one more word, so even if that word is not fishy, the grid has 4 and i have 3 and therefore wins the series

10:51 pm

hurshy

IT IS JUST LIKE BASKETBALL!!!!

10:51 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yeah, okay, don't blow a gasket LOL

10:51 pm

hurshy

for the record, last one was NOT fishy, 3/7 for me, humbly crown the grid with a wreath of laurels

10:52 pm

hurshy

you're one to talk, you lot will say "EXTERMINATE" at the drop of a hat ;)
