Douglas

It's a well-known hymn for the Thanksgiving season..."Harvest Home"

12:25 am

dave70la

12:29 am

cybernan

12:29 am

Jadeomoan

HOw do you all know the word stats already? Is lickety up and I missed it?

12:30 am

Douglas

Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came, sowed ***** in his field, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, the ***** appeared also.

12:30 am

cybernan

aha -- got the other ab 8

12:30 am

dave70la

there are 2 8/55's...I'll try again...ab+my doctor put me on a ***** no-sodium diet.

re8

12:32 am

Douglas

The master's servants came to him and said "Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the ***** come from. The master said "An enemy has done this." The servants said "Do you want us to pull them up?" The master said, "'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.'

1:18 am

Jadeomoan

I understand.

1:29 am

sprite

I am doing very poorly on the biggies today. I can make lots of compounds, like help for picnic pests, or a taxi doing nothing, but none of them are valid!

1:32 am

stidmama

1:34 am

stidmama

1:35 am

Andree

1:36 am

sprite

it is pouring here, incredibly wet weather, even for holland. Can I come over for tea, Andree?

1:37 am

stidmama

?southerly?

1:37 am

:|

southerly is a wind that comes from the south, in australia that typically means cool winds

1:37 am

Andree

breeze from the south stid

1:38 am

Andree

thx for the offer sprite, you can send the rain though, we need it

1:38 am

stidmama

thanks :| (how do I _say_ that?}

1:38 am

stidmama

so southerly is good! :-) glad to hear it, andree

1:38 am

:|

lol stid, i guess you cant.

1:39 am

sprite

pouty face?

1:39 am

Andree

its very good and what we hope foe and mostly get after a hot day

1:39 am

jillibus

it snowed a bit here today

1:39 am

sprite

wasn't offering, was begging, lol. But I just told the rain to go visit you, Andree.

1:40 am

:|

not amused sprite - but i guess pouty also serves

1:40 am

Andree

i think autumn is going to be late

1:40 am

Andree

thx sprite

1:40 am

stidmama

did it Jill? we got a little bit of sleety rain in the morning and again in the evening, but no more white stuff since Thursday, and nothing stuck since Weds

1:41 am

Andree

i find it so interesting all the different time zones and weather etc

1:41 am

jillibus

it was just a light dusting and roads are clear. Supposed to warm up

1:41 am

jillibus

fun world here, eh Andree?

1:42 am

Andree

haven't seen snow for years, last time was maybe mount fujii

1:42 am

Jadeomoan

we got some snow this morning, but it cleared up but was very cold the rest of the day

1:42 am

stidmama

I am so ready for it to warm up. Talked to riemann this afternoon and the blizzard was pretty impressive for him in South Dakota!

1:42 am

stidmama

Glad it's not piling up a lot more Jade, you folks have really been hit this winter!

1:44 am

jillibus

has anyone found a word for the middle c in the top row?

1:45 am

stidmama

taxis Jill?

1:45 am

Jadeomoan

I've found a few jilli...

1:45 am

stidmama

no, that's from the left C. :-(

1:45 am

joey

jilli, it is a 5/14

1:45 am

Jadeomoan

Yes we have, stid....wish it would go away though....

1:45 am

jillibus

that's the left c. I have 10 words from there

1:46 am

joey

it has to do with around that time

1:46 am

sprite

that's it, joey, thanks :)

1:46 am

:|

usually seen on things like old photos

1:46 am

joey

yw

1:46 am

stidmama

I have 19 Cs total, but not sure which gave birth to what...

1:47 am

jillibus

ha, got it -- thanks joey

1:47 am

stidmama

ooh! thanks Joey! 20 C! LOL

1:47 am

:|

i have 19 in the left c, it does make it confusing

1:48 am

sprite

clues for words from a certain tile are always hard, but this tile only gives one word :)
That makes it easier to see.

1:48 am

:|

it would be lovely to click on a letter and see which from the list originate there, along with the option to sort by length rather than alphabetically

1:49 am

stidmama

that would be helpful, :|

1:49 am

sprite

jilli, are those 2 Ab8's related?

All I have is sub**** though, still 2 missing

infoplease?...whats the url for that?

2:14 am

http://www.infoplease.com/

2:15 am

sprite

great site, usually has defs when the ? mark does not.

2:16 am

rolin

a very cool site indeed..ill have to let my kids at school know about that one

2:17 am

sprite

what I like best it that when it doesn't have a def, it suggests places where you can look further.

2:18 am

rolin

yes...and thats just lead me to see that encarta has listed 'koala bear' as a valid term...aaaggghhh!!!!

2:18 am

hi andree

2:22 am

VolleymomDee

hi MV

2:23 am

sprite

could be better, Dee, but definitely could be a lot worse too :)
Thanks for asking.

2:24 am

VolleymomDee

sorry to hear things are bumpy; hope it doesn't last long!!

2:25 am

sprite

sometimes things must worsen first before they can get better, so they tell me... and I pretend to believe it ;)

2:25 am

VolleymomDee

that was true for my friend... things did get tough before they got better... all the things she had "stuffed" in denial had to be worked through

2:26 am

Andree

are these tr words a bit tough? or is it me

2:27 am

VolleymomDee

I am finding this entire grid tough today

2:27 am

Andree

and me sprite sometimes it takes a while to come out of darkness into light

2:28 am

sprite

good to hear that, that is encouraging.
Right now it is a bit like I am wearing my skin inside out. Like all nerve ends are sticking out of me. But hey, I am the stubborn type that never gives up - should work FOR me this time, right!

2:28 am

sprite

that is so true, Andree. Thanks for sharing :)

2:29 am

VolleymomDee

like you are a walking raw nerve... I understand that... and totally agree with Andree about moving from darkness into light

2:29 am

VolleymomDee

cr 8 if no one said that before

2:30 am

Andree

when i had panic attacks sprite i felt my skin was made of sandpaper

2:31 am

Andree

i cannot even imagine having one now

2:31 am

sprite

that's exactly it, Andree. Good to know I am not alone in that - and that it is possible to get over it.

2:32 am

sprite

stupid thing is, before this therapy I never had panic attacks, or if I did, I could suppress them so deep I did not even recognise them as such. So part of me feels like I am getting worse.

2:33 am

Andree

not only get over it but put it completely behind you

2:33 am

Jadeomoan

falling asleep @ the keyboard....nite all.....

2:33 am

sprite

night Jade, sweet dreams!

4:15 am

Jencatd

To try to fool yourself into thinking you're not addicted? :D

4:15 am

Haz1558

Good evening Fran, by the way.

4:15 am

4:18 am

FranMag

i had to refresh to see it, but it's there.

4:19 am

Haz1558

Same as FMitch - a bit sticky.

4:19 am

rolin

it looks better in 1Mb proportions ihave to say

4:19 am

lynxxx

Fran - is that where the word holiday came from?

4:19 am

rolin

yes i agree haz..lotsa words doesnt mean theyre easy to find

4:20 am

FranMag

i have no idea lynxxx, i just did a quick google search, didn't read too much about it.

4:20 am

Haz1558

With the re8 my head was telling me one thing, but my eyes weren't cooperating to see it in the grid.

4:20 am

FMitch

Glad to know I am not the only one think that about the grid Haz.

4:21 am

Haz1558

That blessed b in the middle is a nuisance.

4:21 am

rolin

i feel myself reaching for the list with only just over half done...i usually try to get to 2/3 done

4:21 am

rolin

but i have the 8s if anyone needs them

4:24 am

Haz1558

(Babblers struggling to know whether to continue the torture a little longer)

Good day, Babblers! How is this grid?

6:50 am

Sherylr1961

good morning all

6:51 am

featherbee

morning!

6:51 am

Sherylr1961

How's everyone's week been? I for one am glad it is over and it's the weekend

6:52 am

Scrabbler

Hi Sheryll-haven't seen you here in a while. And feather, you are on early.

6:52 am

featherbee

yup, darling daniel came into my bedroom at 7:15 this morning. so much for sleeping in on weekends!

6:52 am

Inge2

morning all! So far the grid is auspicious...the top left C is grayed out!

6:53 am

Sherylr1961

haven't been on too much lately. I quit smoking Jan 1 and sitting at the computer used to be one of my smoke times.

6:53 am

Scrabbler

I passed out early so I am up early. And Inge2--good for you, I have 7 of those so far

6:53 am

Scrabbler

Sheryl--great for you! That is huge!

6:53 am

Sherylr1961

good for you inge, I have none grayed out but working on it

6:53 am

featherbee

gotta go take care of a diaper, and get both of us dressed. back in a few to start.

6:54 am

Inge2

Sheryl, that's FANTASTIC. you go girl!

6:54 am

ch1212

kudos to you, Sheryl!! I quit several years ago after making attempts for almost 10 years. I know how tough it is. You are AWESOME!!!

6:54 am

Sherylr1961

ty scrabbler, really glad I did it, don't like the 15 pounds I have gained since quitting but hey my lungs thank me

6:55 am

Sherylr1961

ty ch1212, all this praise will go to my head, lol

6:55 am

Sherylr1961

both my husband and myself quit at the same time, don't think I could have did it if he wouldn't have done it too.

6:56 am

Sherylr1961

my kids are very happy that we don't smoke in the house anymore.

6:56 am

Inge2

I'm sure that did help, good for him too! That's true love

6:56 am

Scrabbler

Sheryl, you can lose wt, but your lungs cannot heal without quitting the cigarettes.

6:56 am

ch1212

If you really want a huge rush to your head just start going for jogs or aerobic walks -- your new lungs will push so much oxygen into your brain you will get that same 'rush' as you did from the first ciggie in the morning. :)

6:56 am

Scrabbler

And what an example for your kids.

6:57 am

Sherylr1961

thats what I figure scrabbler, the weight I can lose

6:57 am

Inge2

yes, you can lose the weight...one thing at a time!

6:58 am

ch1212

My daughter was thrilled when I quit, and she has never started herself. Your kids have a much better chance now!! You and your husband should really celebrate if you haven't already!

6:58 am

Sherylr1961

you know what the biggest driver was for the hubby and me to quit? The money. We were spending $100 a week on smokes, we just said to ourselves that money should be for our retirement or trips and fun things now

6:59 am

Sherylr1961

I sincerely think neither of my kids will smoke, thank god.

6:59 am

Scrabbler

((((Sheryl, husband, and kids))) Yippeeeeee!

6:59 am

ch1212

Wow. Then you definitely have the money to treat yourselves to a wonderful vacation!! Hurrah again for you and your family!

6:59 am

Sherylr1961

it's funny both my parents smoke, still do, and I became a smoker, both my kids parents smoke and they didin't start and hate it

7:00 am

Sherylr1961

really think it has to do with the education they get at an early age

7:00 am

ch1212

Ditto here!

7:00 am

lynnstpierre

3 words left

7:00 am

Inge2

yes, money can be a great motivator. Our lab has done studies with alcoholics and money as a reward for quitting drinking

7:00 am

Sherylr1961

I don't remember hearing how awful smoking was when i was small

7:00 am

Sherylr1961

And Sheryl, isn't it AMAZING how stinky it is? I mean, I honestly thought I was covering up the smell when I smoked, and after I quit, I couldn't BELIEVE how much the smoke had permeated everything in the hosue.

7:01 am

Charm

Hi, Sheryl

7:01 am

Sherylr1961

I am stuck at 11 for that C scrabbler so kudo's

7:02 am

7:06 am

Kazzer99

tis a shame really cos the one that has just died had done 220,000 miles in 8 years. However, the rear suspension failed and it wasnt ecomical enough to repair it

7:06 am

JFB

We did that at the end of last year kazzer - went to the sales to buy a cheap radio/CD player for the kitchen and came back with a car!! It does have a radio in it but won't fit in the kitchen!!

7:07 am

Scrabbler

The penalty box, to serve your penalty for putting grid words in the chat log---you get beverages and treats, like donuts, croissants, coffee...

7:07 am

Sherylr1961

Hallmark Channel is a great channel.
