Kamanjah

12:46 am

Rainiqui

fl 7 if not called

1:03 am

rbud

ha, I could have called my living room that at one point... too many pets back then...

1:06 am

Kamanjah

Oh noez! I've been there, but diet changes for the critters have seemed to work well. Haven't had to use poison all summer, just herbs - but we have a catnip thief who has discovered my herb drying area. Catnip is one of the best herbs I've found to deter those pests!

1:07 am

Kamanjah

I have to get the shop vac out to get the dried herbs out from under our water heater tomorrow, darned sneaky critter!

1:11 am

rbud

do you just put the catnip around, rub it on the cats, (and dogs?) or actually feed it... never heard of it, wouldn't mind trying.

1:12 am

rbud

I mean never heard of it as a fl4 treatment

1:14 am

Kamanjah

I dry it and put it under the dog's bed in his crate. Plus, I scatter all the seeds and dried parts all over the yard.. I don't care if it grows like a weed! I want it to!

1:15 am

Kamanjah

Check out AnimalEO on FB or the dot com - that vet has so many good blends, but I just use the herbs instead of the oils - so much safer IMO

1:15 am

rbud

hmmm... interesting! thanks.

1:18 am

Kamanjah

Yeah, the pests aren't fun to deal with! Good luck! You can always contact me on FB - I've changed so much with my critters this year, and very few bugs is a huge blessing!

1:20 am

rbud

did you change things in their diets as well?

1:21 am

Kamanjah

Switched dog to raw - major improvement! It's not cheap unless you have livestock or hunter friends.

1:23 am

Kamanjah

One cat is on partially raw - but they're both over 10 yrs. One begs for raw, the other doesn't know what to do with it, but we did go grain free due to a shortage of their regular feed at the local feed store. Now they won't eat the old stuff!

1:26 am

Kamanjah

I'll send you some links to groups on FB tomorrow- I'm still learning. If I forget, poke me!

1:26 am

rbud

thanks! :)

10:36 am

hokie carla

well, I was sure it was seance but it's not

10:41 am

amelu0218

mlf, did you get the 6/21?

10:41 am

pippingeek

i could use a clue for it

10:41 am

amelu0218

if you have the 5/12 before it, make it look latin

10:43 am

hokie carla

I'm going to the list. No time to play around today.

10:47 am

amelu0218

If you don't have the 5/12, it's 4/5 of a Mexican chip dip, just change a letter then make latin pl.

10:49 am

hokie carla

just realized we are looking for sa, not se

10:50 am

hokie carla

but still not getting either :D

10:51 am

hokie carla

I mean, I thought I understood the clue but it's not working out

10:56 am

amelu0218

it's not a Mexican dip (I suppose it could be used in one,n lol). It's an ocean creature that swims using water suction and expulsion. Change the 3rd cons of the dip but go down the grid instead of across the grid

10:56 am

pippingeek

ah, the white gelatin critters that cling to your hair. the worst

10:57 am

hokie carla

that explains why salca wouldn't work

10:57 am

pippingeek

i had the 4 of that, didn't know it also worked as a 5

10:57 am

amelu0218

and 6

11:14 am

amelu0218

fw. sheesh, that x was used more than I expected

11:15 am

hokie carla

yes

11:15 am

MollyL

Way back in her original clue, amelu said Latin ending.

11:15 am

hokie carla

and honestly I'm shocked the first pi5/12 is in enable. seems too high tech for that dictionary.

11:16 am

amelu0218

I concur! didn't seem archaic enough, lol.

11:16 am

amelu0218

clues needed?

11:17 am

SamanthaJoy

I suspect it's older than we realize

11:17 am

hokie carla

still working through the list, but thanks

11:17 am

SamanthaJoy

Haven't listed yet, but thank you

11:18 am

hokie carla

yes, Sam, you are correct, I think it's probably been around with photography, just still surprised.

11:18 am

MollyL

No, it has been around as a braid for a very long time, according to the definition

11:20 am

hokie carla

that's pl5/12, I'm talking about pi5/12

11:20 am

hokie carla

not 5/12 pi 5/22

11:20 am

SamanthaJoy

I looked it up. It's from the mid sixties.

11:21 am

hokie carla

computers were definitely around then

11:21 am

hokie carla

but yes, pl5/12 I have heard used for braids all my life

11:21 am

MollyL

Sorry, I have a hard time seeing the difference between I and L here

11:22 am

SamanthaJoy

It's a portmanteau of "picture(s)" and "element." The More You Know!

11:22 am

MollyL

I guessed because of the 5/12

11:22 am

hokie carla

well, I did put the wrong point total, but I was responding to the comment about x's

11:23 am

hokie carla

interesting, Sam. I did not know that.

11:24 am

hokie carla

4 left, 6's and 7's. ugh.

11:26 am

hokie carla

would love a clue for the ca6 and 7. P & TY

11:26 am

SamanthaJoy

The 7 is a hot pepper. Don't have the six.

11:27 am

hokie carla

thanks. I feel like I have tried every possible letter combo for the 6 but apparently not.

11:28 am

hokie carla

got it! will try to clue.

11:29 am

hokie carla

of course it's some kind of 2-wheeled vehicle in the phillipines

11:29 am

hokie carla

ca + alt spelling of woman's name

11:30 am

SamanthaJoy

Got it! Thank you.

11:31 am

hokie carla

de nada

11:34 am

hokie carla

okay, last word 6 letters, I know what the first 4 have to be. can I find it?

11:35 am

hokie carla

and I know what the last 2 letters have to be point wise. this should be easy, right?

11:35 am

SamanthaJoy

.... She said, tempting fate.

11:36 am

hokie carla

fireworks!

11:36 am

SamanthaJoy

W00t!

11:37 am

hokie carla

was pretty sure I was going to have to ask for a clue since I thought I'd tried everything the first go-round. so I was very methodical this time.

11:38 am

SamanthaJoy

Been there!

11:40 am
