6:26 am

PMS

6:27 am

BzznBea

Piddle!

People are going to start getting twitchy. Their closets are all cleaned out, their homes are all spic and span and now there is no Babble to keep them occupied.

I'm going to clean my hair today. =) That's always big news.

7:47 am

MollyL

Ah, I cleaned my hair last night. Hooray for clean hair.

7:47 am

periwinkle

I am using a bar shampoo and a bar conditioner by Viori. I really like the products. Hurshy mentioned that she like them so I tried them

7:48 am

MollyL

Peri, you are getting quite good at the vegetarian cooking.

7:48 am

periwinkle

I cleaned my hair yesterday and did laundry on Wed

7:48 am

periwinkle

I am mostly vegan

7:49 am

MollyL

Laundry is a daily thing in my house. I just can't let it pile up so I have 8 or 9 loads to do in one day.

7:49 am

periwinkle

I do eat chicken and seafood very rarely

7:49 am

BzznBea

I still just use baking soda to clean and vinegar to rinse.

7:49 am

periwinkle

oh dear that is a lot of laundry

7:49 am

periwinkle

for your hair, Bea?

7:49 am

BzznBea

Yes, for my hair.

7:50 am

periwinkle

how many people are in your house Molly? Can't they do the laundry too

7:51 am

MollyL

It's just my son and I. And he does more than his share. He takes care of the towels and the whites and I do the colored clothes.

7:51 am

periwinkle

7:51 am

bichon

7:54 am

MollyL

Just to make life fun, the management company that manages my office building has decided that it's a good time for some interior painting, since the building is mostly vacant.

7:54 am

periwinkle

an H and an L both 4 letters you would think I could find them

7:54 am

periwinkle

just a 4 letter H word from top H is what I am missing

7:55 am

MollyL

I'm guessing your H is a four letter word that sounds like not boy

7:55 am

periwinkle

ty but I have that one

7:55 am

MollyL

Nope, it is the sound an owl makes

7:56 am

BzznBea

sounds like to toss

7:56 am

periwinkle

7:56 am

Judi

Good morning, all.

7:56 am

MollyL

Judi, just in time for Peri's cleaning updates.

7:56 am

BzznBea

Speak of the devil =)

8:00 am

Judi

Heh. Was hell bend on doing laundry when I got home from work last night. However, mother nature decided to give us a BIG wind storm. Gusts of 60 mph + Neighbor's tree came down on some power lines. Power was out for over 16 hours. So much for doing laundry, or anything else for that matter.

8:00 am

cybernan

good morning all :)

8:01 am

MollyL

Well, this is no big surprise. And I'm sure it's not just New York..." New York state has seen a rise in domestic violence, alcoholism, drug use and demands for mental health treatment."

8:04 am

Judi

Sadly, that is everywhere, Molly.

8:07 am

Judi

Combination of joblessness, isolation, depression, etc.

8:09 am

MollyL

I would imagine addiction relapse is at an all time high. Addicts are encouraged NOT to isolate.

8:12 am

Judi

Fireworks!

8:13 am

MollyL

Well done. It's kind of a wham, bam thank you ma'am grid.

8:36 am

gramma

8:41 am

gramma

oo boat

8:43 am

gramma

See you all tomorrow

8:58 am

Buggie

On the topic of addiction. My cousin passed away from alcohol 2 weeks ago. The isolation pushed him over the edge. Though itâ€™ll be probably another couple of weeks before they can do the autopsy.

8:59 am

rururocks

that's sad to read buggie

9:00 am

Buggie

So if youâ€™re isolating with someone, count your blessings even if you do get on each others nerves at times (apart from abuse cases of course). It gets really lonely. My only real face to face conversation is my monthly trip to the pharmacy.

9:01 am

rururocks

i've been out a tiny bit so it's not been awful for me. Plus the weather has been good here so i've been able to be outside a lot

9:03 am

Buggie

thankfully Iâ€™ve got a garden and tons of seedilings nearly ready to go into the veg patch. And I work from home (as I always have) so my life isnâ€™t thrown completely upside down and I can get out.

9:11 am

rururocks

EASY PEASY grid

9:12 am

hoyamd

FWW

9:13 am

Buggie

well done, Iâ€™m finding it quite difficult

9:14 am

rururocks

any grid i can do in 10 minutes is too easy.. lots of babblets in this one buggie..

9:15 am

Buggie

way too many babblets. Iâ€™ve already got a load of them. And I still have 12 words to go

9:22 am

rururocks

this one is easier if you go letter by letter

9:24 am

Buggie

Thatâ€™s how I usually play anyway. Iâ€™ve listed, so Iâ€™m getting there...

9:26 am

rururocks

if it's a larger grid.. i can't do it that way.. too overwhelming for me

9:27 am

mixi6

Stuck on third column o

9:28 am

Buggie

I rarely even attempt a grid over 200 words as I find them too big. Or if I do my goal is only to get half way on each letter

9:29 am

rururocks

eskimo boat mix

9:29 am

rururocks

i finish every grid. i'm a little ocd about it

9:33 am

Buggie

phew, I got them all. And mixi I canâ€™t do any better than ruru for that word. Itâ€™s weird. Unless you play MMORPG video games. In which case it starts with what a mage says when they need a moment to restore their mana...

9:37 am

lizmac

Stuck on last word RE7...any clues please?

9:38 am

mixi6

Fw. Thank you. Had trouble with kayak.
