good morning babblers. A baby babble :(

1:22 am

Lizlin

Hi all. Hi and hugs Sprite - if you've not finished the grid already.

1:23 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Doing other things at the same time, not getting anything really done that way, lol.

1:23 am

Lizlin

How are you? Long time no see!

1:24 am

sprite

am pretty well, a bit busy but with good stuff. And you and your beloved?

1:25 am

Lizlin

Not too bad - there've been (still are) major bush fires close to us over the past week and the smoke has been pretty horrible. Not to mention all the damage etc too to property, animals and a very beautiful area.

1:26 am

sprite

must be so scary to be living that close to such devastation. Are you and yours safe at least?

1:27 am

Lizlin

We're not in a fire zone so we're totally safe but like I said, the smoke has been pervasive.

1:27 am

sprite

am glad you are safe. But yeah, the smoke must be a real issue.

1:28 am

Lizlin

I resorted to allergy tablets for several days and the smell is just in everything - clothing, bedding, towels etc etc but really we've got it easy compared to many who are directly affected.

1:29 am

sprite

*sends a bunch of smoke eaters over to Liz's*

1:29 am

Lizlin

:)

1:30 am

Lizlin

OK - time for me to be out of here for a while. I've made a good start on the grid. Glad to have caught up wth you. Keep on enjoying the good stuff but don't overdo it. Hugs.

1:31 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* and for your beloved too. Good luck with the smoke.

1:33 am

sprite

fireflies. *leaves hug in chog for rose to find*

Judi

Blah. I have nothing to do here at work. They keep lightening my work load. I'm not happy about it.

9:03 am

rururocks

hmm wonder why?

9:03 am

Judi

Technology is part of it. Plus I firmly believe our current Chief wants all cops and no civilians in the PD.

9:04 am

Judi

The boredom does not sit well with me.

9:04 am

Judi

Especially when we only have a 55 word grid, dammit!

9:05 am

Judi

I've taken to doing online crossword and jigsaw puzzles, just to keep my brain from turning to mush.

9:07 am

Judi

Gotta run an errand. See y'all tomorrow! *POOF*
