2:58 am

VolleymomDee

2:59 am

sprite

yay lickety, great you even find time to do it for us. *hugs* again.

2:59 am

lynxxx

3:01 am

VolleymomDee

3:02 am

sprite

3:02 am

lynxxx

Yay for Volley !!

3:02 am

VolleymomDee

3:02 am

sprite

and YAYYY for Dee!

3:02 am

VolleymomDee

amazing

3:02 am

licketySplitAUS

lady- don't have much time to describe right now - but the chat log has more info.

3:03 am

herinfernallady

oh?

3:03 am

herinfernallady

what time?

3:03 am

VolleymomDee

lickety are they able to control her pain?

3:03 am

licketySplitAUS

Dee - not yet, but hopefully the antibiotics will work soon. it's the Operation that might happen that's freaking us out.

3:03 am

VolleymomDee

an double yay for sprite! herin it is throughout chat, just scroll thru

3:04 am

herinfernallady

ok doing it now, i have been non compes all day

3:04 am

licketySplitAUS

Good news is she might be home in a few days!

3:04 am

VolleymomDee

It is truly scarier sounding than it will be if it has to happen. One of our friends now has a metal contraption down her arm and had with all of the metal on the exterior of the wrist screwed into her bone

3:04 am

VolleymomDee

That would be a true blessing.

3:04 am

sprite

ow wow lickety, that would be great to have her home again!

3:05 am

licketySplitAUS

Dee - yes - that's exactly what it will be - with a turn of a nut every six hours to lengthen the bone - Upper arm though.

3:05 am

VolleymomDee

does the PICC line nurse then come to the house once a week?

3:05 am

licketySplitAUS

Dee - every day

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

Our Sara is doing fantastic with hers; once they got her arm stabilized the pain decreased

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

that's great; the nurse will be able to monitor the infection

3:06 am

sprite

sure sounds scary, lickety, but Dee is right, it often is scarier before than it will turn out to be.

3:06 am

licketySplitAUS

yeah - it's more the PICC line entry point and change the bottle

3:06 am

VolleymomDee

she will have at least two more surgeries in the next 2 months

3:07 am

VolleymomDee

what antibiotic ?

3:07 am

licketySplitAUS

The Op is still not confirmed - have to wait 4 weeks for PICC line to come out.

3:07 am

licketySplitAUS

flucloxan or something like that

3:07 am

sprite

lickety, what makes today THE big day for mrP, if I may ask?

3:07 am

VolleymomDee

we'll just pray that the meds take care of the problem completely

3:08 am

licketySplitAUS

sprite- today was the day all the docters told her what was next

3:08 am

Atalante

picc lines *shudder*

3:08 am

licketySplitAUS

and we found out she's coming home.

3:08 am

pinkhatlil

3:08 am

licketySplitAUS

3:08 am

herinfernallady

Oh gees Lickety that is so suckholy i thought that they were just talking about an op i didnt realise that it was going ahead

3:09 am

VolleymomDee

it's probably flucanazole or a derivative

3:09 am

licketySplitAUS

Thank you, kat. I, too, have an indoor cat... but she is very bossy! Haz, my tiger cat is very dark, and I have inadvertently stepped on her when poking about at night... she lets out a littl "yike", and then always waits for me to blither my apologies and petting her, soothing away my guilt. Then she purrs, curls up, and snores her gentle heart away!

Both el7 work off the special and top-notch el5/10. Make one el7 by making it a person who believes in being top-notch, the other is formed by making it a belief system. Or think of the endings that turn organ into a person who plays or a tiny creature.

7:55 am

carleekat

( when I started..i didn't..when i joined a beginner class..i couldn't do a damn thing..my brai was telling my hip to go down to the left and it was goign up to the right....and you feel completely unbalanced ( centre of gravity thing) and NOTHING goes right

7:56 am

Illini Cubs

thanks carleekat

7:56 am

carleekat

but is great fun....)

7:56 am

Scarlet

You are right... we were all beginners at one time. I have considered learning yoga, though... I've been told that it is a great start to limbering tight bones, and reaching the inner harmony within... I've heard of the cardio-benefits, kat! LOL, kat... and now you teach!

7:56 am

carleekat

there u go... and now I teach

7:56 am

carleekat

7:58 am

carleekat

i did enjoy pilates when i took it

7:59 am

Lizsark

Any clues for the C's? I have 2 for 5 points...

7:59 am

Scarlet

I am very interested in taking tai chi classes. Pilates might be a bit too "impactive" for the old bones.

7:59 am

carleekat

pilattes is great for strength and flexibility and it is a very slow, controlled method for fitness

7:59 am

Scarlet

YOu have more than I do, Lizsark! Good morning.

8:00 am

carleekat

there 4 for 5 points liz

8:07 am

Scarlet

Oh, rmc... no wonder you can't turn your memory off.

8:07 am

8:07 am

carleekat

8:08 am

Scarlet

Ohmigosh... that's awful.

8:09 am

TY for the li5 clue!

10:16 am

FMitch

Hey carlee

10:16 am

Haz1558

Something like that. Spangle tried to thwart my efforts by bringing stuff from the garden into the house. I objected, she retreated to the kennel and huffed for a while.

10:16 am

Haz1558

But we're friends again.

10:17 am

Scrabbler

10:18 am

Haz1558

At least Spangle can't text-message her woes to her pals.

10:18 am

Scrabbler

10:46 am

Haz1558

FMitch - my sister was telling me yesterday about being on the train and a younger woman making a big fuss about insisting that Valerie sit down rather than stand. She felt slightly insulted (she's not THAT old or decrepit) and felt obliged to run past the girl when they got off, just to prove that she wasn't past it.

11:16 am

stidmama

hi hurshy! my phantom was "volatile"

11:16 am

hurshy

and vitiate

11:16 am

Frances

Or motivator

11:16 am

carleekat

phantom?....I had hard enough time finding the words. let alone finding phantoms

11:16 am

stidmama

and I must needs be off... email and such before I take a nap (not sure what I ate but it really didn't agree with me)

11:17 am

FMitch

Frances, do you remember him from breakfast TV? (tee hee)

11:17 am

BabbleRabble

maoist; taoist; taoism; and tuti fruti

11:17 am

carleekat

bye stid....take care..mint tea always helps an upset tummy

11:17 am

Frances

Mr Motivator also known as Mr Lycra.

11:17 am

Haz1558

That's bringing up the most unwelcome image, FMitch. Glasses and lycra.

11:17 am

hurshy

tutti frutti, oh rudy

11:18 am

saphyre

hursh - know it isn't there but I have tried it quite a few times :)

11:18 am

11:18 am

FMitch

yes, I am beginning to wish I hand't mentioned it. lunchboxes lunchboxes urgh

11:18 am

hurshy

lunchboxes? mine was holly hobby.

11:19 am

hurshy

oh, i have a question.

11:19 am

Haz1558

I don't know that we're talking about the same thing...

11:19 am

carleekat

my mum just used paper lunch sacs for me

11:19 am

FMitch

ROFL, I was thinking a slightly different connotation.

11:19 am

carleekat

whats the ? hursy?

11:20 am

Haz1558

You explain it, FMitch - you brought it up!

11:20 am

Frances

I know just what you mean FMitch - Mr Lunchbox also.

11:20 am

hurshy

so i have this nightguard because i grind my teeth at night, but lately, i don't know why - i don't feel consciously stressed - i find myself clenching my jaw a lot during the day too - just ... focussing on things or whatever. how do i stop???

11:20 am

Haz1558

Or better still, we'll draw a discreet veil over Mr Motivator and try to pretend it was a bad dream from the eighties.

11:20 am

hurshy

it's giving me the TMJ and the owie owies.

11:21 am

carleekat

dentist told me to eat lots of crunchy things to tire out my jaw..carrot sticks and the like

11:21 am

Erda

you need a hypnotist

11:22 am

FMitch

You can actully get teeth shields for night time hursy to protec the teeth - I used to suffer from the same whilst going through divorce process but it did go away in the end

11:22 am

Frances

Alex Ferguson must have a very slack jaw when he sleeps then LOL.

11:22 am

carleekat

who is alex ferguson?

11:23 am

Frances

Manager of Manchester United Football Club. Chews gum nonstop.

11:23 am

Haz1558

Extremely successful Scots manager of Manchester United and manic gum chewer.

11:23 am

carleekat

oh..him...yeap..probably... wonder..will he still have a job after saturday?

11:24 am

Haz1558

He fired David Beckham and is under a curse from Posh Spice.

11:24 am

Haz1558

Carlee - they won the league - there's no fear of him going anywhere until he wants to.

11:24 am

FMitch

What? is she going to pout him to death?

11:24 am

carleekat

they won the league..lost the cup....

11:24 am

Frances

LOL FMitch

11:25 am

ursh

Hurshy - I read you should be concious of your tongue being stuck to the roof of your mouth and concentrate on dropping it - tongue on roof of mouth means teeth clenched

11:25 am

carleekat

( i guess am used to hockey teams....managers - the coach- are fired if they look at head office with crossed eyes and black listed )

11:25 am

BabbleRabble

Hurshy, do you have an alarm on your computer? If so, my suggestion is to set it for every hour so that you may make a concious effort to relax all the muscles. Also, walking would help. I expect you are still adjusting to a bunch of changes that are quite stresful, whether you are aware of it or not.

11:25 am

ursh

concious???

11:26 am

Haz1558

carlee - he's been manager of Man United for something like 20 years. He's Mr Longevity.

11:26 am

ursh

Ok brab you spelt it the same

11:26 am

carleekat

ok... apparently he wears teflon then I guess..

11:26 am

Frances

Haz he keeps renewing his contract. I seem to remember a few years ago he was going to retire and changed his mind.

11:27 am

carleekat

not a huge man United fan..just follow it in a general way

11:27 am

FMitch

Darn, only found half a dozen words in the last hour, too much chat and now I must go. We are going out for a meal.
Fun log chat but not sure about the grid. TTFN and happy babbling

11:28 am

Haz1558

Yes, he did talk about retirement and then changed his mind. Maybe his wife talked him out of it!

11:28 am

11:30 am

carleekat

hi nan...

11:30 am

ursh

oh damn hurshy just eat lots of crunchy chocolate

11:30 am

hurshy

i'm TRYING to be conscious of it and not clench, but it happens, like i said, when i'm focussing on other things and thus my conscious is kinda occupied...

11:30 am

hurshy

lol ursh

11:31 am

carleekat

dark chocoalte filled with almonds or hazelnuts...that would work ;o)

11:31 am

hurshy

i figured on calling my dentist, but i didn't know if i need a regular doc, or a psychologist, or what?

11:31 am

Frances

hurshy think of the firm jawline

11:31 am

carleekat

( ugh..it sonly 14 here )

11:32 am

ursh

Friend who suffers from tension headaches wears sort of dental plate (cant see) all the time to keep tongue down

11:32 am

kc8501

hurshy, I have the same sort of issue. try chewing gum or something that keeps your mouth busy

11:32 am

cybernan

os 5?

11:33 am

carleekat

ok..well..am going to get some work done around here... have a great day..and happy Victoria day to tall the canadians in the grid

11:33 am

11:36 am

hurshy

lol brabble

11:36 am

Haz1558

Looks like you can either be tense, slim, with good teeth, or relaxed, fat and with rampant tooth decay. I hope you find a solution!

11:36 am

hurshy

maybe if i can find some sugar free hard candies... i doubt my employers want their receptionist smacking gum all day...

11:38 am

kc8501

lol you don't have to smack it. but something like that helps. and constantly reminding your self "don't clench, don't clench"

11:38 am

hurshy

yeah, that's what i'm working on... it's hard though. working on posture too - i THINK i'm getting better on that one

11:39 am

markbowers7

hurshy, you could hire me to smack you upside the head every time you clenck your teeth

11:39 am

KnightTime

down to 6 words.

11:39 am

KnightTime

any clue for the il5?

11:40 am

hurshy

i see several probs with that idea, mark, but kind of you to offer :)

11:40 am

kc8501

the il 4 with a consonent on the end

11:40 am

Haz1558

It builds on the il4 and is descriptive of it.

11:40 am

KnightTime

ty

11:42 am

markbowers7

what? u think i may be distracting while you work? "hello...*smack*...thank you for calling...*smack*", "I'm sorry...*smack*...he's not *smack* in right now"

11:42 am

hurshy

that and i can't afford it :)

Oh, you've performed your ablutions already? That's okay then!

11:59 am

Nancy Boy

Well I wouldn't go that far...still want a shower (the cat is giving me disgusted looks) but I want another five words first :)

12:00 pm

markbowers7

ah ha!

12:00 pm

Haz1558

And have you sought help for your babble addiction, yet, NBoy, or are you happy in your habit like the rest of us?

12:01 pm

markbowers7

Nboy wears a habit?

12:01 pm

markbowers7

i guess i could see that :)

12:01 pm

12:02 pm

hi flask

12:02 pm

Haz1558

Hello Flask - it's a 'get a pair of tweezers' type of grid, but doable.

12:02 pm

Nancy Boy

Mark, only on special occassions :)
Haz, there are worse addictions for a boy my age...
though myself as a monk is about as likely as the pope picking his nose and wiping it on the cardinals' robes...

12:02 pm

TheLauryn

too many vowels...-arg-

12:02 pm

kc8501

ok! now.... oo 5???

12:03 pm

Haz1558

You haven't seen that CCTV footage from the Vatican, then?

12:03 pm

Nancy Boy

And of course, that would be a special "occasion" rather than a special "occassion".
Running weakens the fingers?

12:03 pm

Flask1

Ok Haz!
How you doin'......not seen you for a while?

12:03 pm

Haz1558

oo5 - like the ghostly and scary ee5.

Hello Flask - I'm fine - wasn't in great form last week but back to normal now. Or normalish.

And when did we start giving away words in the log? They're neither needed nor appreciated.

12:08 pm

ypsigirl

I was thinking the same thing Haz!

12:08 pm

TheLauryn

didn't think that was allowed.....

12:08 pm

12:08 pm

Nancy Boy

<Whines> Punish them, Haz! :)

12:08 pm

Mom01

it's frowned upon highly

12:09 pm

Haz1558

TheLauryn - it's not allowed, you're right! Sometimes it happens by accident. That was no accident.

TheLauryn

Sur..you're not supposed to give out answers hun..just clues...

12:09 pm

Nancy Boy

Hi, G&J :)

12:09 pm

Haz1558

Scroll back to your previous postings surreality - you've spelled words out, not given a clue.

12:10 pm

rumplestiltskin

Out of here! See you all soon. **#@%#$!%#%@$#%$@

12:10 pm

surrealitytl

it was a completely legitimate clue because i didn't spell the word out, but instead made it into a math problem

12:10 pm

Haz1558

Bye rumple - nice to see you again.

12:10 pm

garyandjulie

hows the grid behaving, tried this morning but was to sleep logged and gave up

12:10 pm

Haz1558

Don't be ridiculous.

12:10 pm

Nancy Boy

Right - I really am off for the shower this time. (((Haz))) take care of yourself, milady :)

12:11 pm

garyandjulie

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

surrealitytl

12:12 pm

Mom01

Hmmm..didn't look like any of the clues I've seen here before

12:12 pm

Psycho_Puppy

Oh dear. I'm gonna go down the pub. Happy babbling all.

12:12 pm

Flask1

Oh Haz Ive had a stressful afternoon...my wee brain is not registering to el's.....more help please?

12:12 pm

Mom01

12:12 pm

walnutchen

12:13 pm

surrealitytl

flask1 - e + you're ****

12:13 pm

lucyloo

how are you has? i should have pointed it out to surreality do apoligisex

12:13 pm

Haz1558

Flask - do you have the special el5/10? If so, take the vowel off the end, replace it with another along with the appropriate ending. They're the same endings that turn organ into the person who plays, and organ into a very small creature.

12:13 pm

Haz1558

Hello lucy - I'm fine thanks.

12:14 pm

surrealitytl

walnutchen - a + letter that looks like "t" + letter that has a line with a dot above it + letter that's straight + second letter of this word

12:14 pm

ardilla

12:18 pm

Frances

Have to say that I do prefer cryptic clues.

12:18 pm

Mom01

i agree Frances

12:18 pm

ardilla

su, another way to clue that could be look up at the c***ing

12:18 pm

ardilla

that way you don't spell out the word

12:19 pm

saphyre

hm

12:19 pm

ardilla

they are just trying to help you

12:19 pm

Flask1

got the second one Haz...the first one is eluding me......:-(

12:19 pm

Frances

My brain is dead enough I don't need to have all the work taken away.

12:19 pm

Mom01

ardilla....it's already been explained to surreality...they just didn't want to do that

12:20 pm

surrealitytl

and mom turns into supermom to save the day, hmph

12:20 pm

ardilla

yes, ma'am mom

12:20 pm

Haz1558

The first one is the ending that's put on a word to denote a belief system. It's just one change of consonant, earlier in the alphabet.

12:21 pm

walnutchen

et6?

12:22 pm

Haz1558

et6 - French star - formed by putting a hard-working word between two vowels, both the same.

12:23 pm

chic

an E sandwich; like that, Haz...

12:23 pm

Haz1558

Time to go and get something done for the evening meal. Flask - hope that el7 doesn't elude you for ever!

12:23 pm

chic

so 6/27, please?

12:24 pm

walnutchen

chic - think former USSR...

12:24 pm

Haz1558

Yes, chic, something like that! so6 - think of Russia and its satellite states.

12:24 pm

Haz1558

Bye!

12:24 pm

chic

thanx, Haz!

12:25 pm

chic

hurshy, im not the expert by any means! in fact, im the newbie to the team!
i work on the Web Operations team...basically, everyone had gone home + semi-after-hours, they needed some files moved/replaced. the other guy who was still here knew HOW to do it, but not where they needed to go...but LUCKILY i had the cell number of the lady who usually does it, so the crisis was averted. :)

saphyre

1:18 pm

Anj

Not sure. Lola works different shifts so it all depends on what she has to do at home. I'm going to try to be more regular again even if iy means grabbing Lickety's list and just going at it hammer & tongs. I can only play when I get home from work which is about 12:30 ish for you.

1:19 pm

Anj

lol Hursh, plenty of plans, all of them long term : )

the BF + i decided today to restart the cohabitation discussions...

1:24 pm

nomis

any help on vo 5,16 pls

1:24 pm

Mom01

ta7 = a form of byebye + a musical note (do re ** so la ti)

1:25 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

found the ta7!

1:25 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

oh, too late! 8-)

1:25 pm

Anj

Ooo, go for it. Nothing like real estate to get things moving ; )

1:25 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

vo5 is the same as other vo5, except last letter is diff vowel. both sound like a musical instrument

1:26 pm

hurshy

evaN - i read that cohabitation (as contrasted with marriage) ends up being much more beneficial to the male, and sucky for the female, who ends up just doing all the housework for him and getting nada in return.

1:26 pm

Mom01

isn't one a french word we use to mean "instant" or like magic?

1:27 pm

EvaNadine

heh, funny though, cause i think hes the cleaner one of the 2 of us...

1:27 pm

hurshy

one's the french for "there it is!" yes

1:27 pm

hurshy

and one's a fabric

1:27 pm

nomis

Thanks BDG!

1:27 pm

Anj

nada... is that a euphenism then?? ; )

1:27 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yup. but still, it is spelled almost same as musical instrument

1:28 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

yw, nomis

1:28 pm

EvaNadine

i already own real estate, which iwould not be selling -- i would rent out my house and he + i would rent a place together. im not quite ready to SELL my house to move in with him, but the area he lives in is much more commute-friendly for both of us...

1:28 pm

hurshy

intriguing

1:28 pm

Mom01

thanks hurshy :) i'm not fluent in any language,lol

1:29 pm

Anj

Wise move... the more you own, the more options you have.

1:29 pm

hurshy

esp if what you own has wheels (all i own is my car... and you know, furniture and stuff)

1:32 pm

EvaNadine

yeah, i mean, part of it is for tax purposes -- if i sell my house + dont buy within (i think) 2 years, i get slammed for capital gains. which is just dumb. plus, my house is still increasing in value, so im earning equity just by owning it. the roommates i have now are GREAT< so really, id just need to rent out the other room to make the mortgage, so its all good!

1:34 pm

Mom01

6 left...any clue for the ac5?

1:35 pm

EvaNadine

AC + estimated time of arrival

1:35 pm

Anj

No place to be : ) That's an option I have here. I can almost double the cost of the mortgage in rent in the current market. Mind you, we have a house sale glut over here now as everyone is trying to avoid the Homebuyers Pack deadline so it will be interesting to see what occurs in the next few months...

1:35 pm

Mom01

thanks :)

1:35 pm

2:22 pm

SamanthaJoy

Of course, my glasses are in the bathroom because I slept in my contacts last night, so no one should take anything I have to say seriously--I'm obviously a dimwit

2:23 pm

Anj

ah, but glasses are plural...or it would be a monocle ; ) lol
