12:13 am

12:13 am

12:14 am

chic

12:14 am

proud not to have looked at the list for this one :)

12:18 am

stidmama

jellen! what are you still doing up!!! *look of awe at stamina of librarian-types*

12:18 am

Jellen

Slept late this morning, stid.

12:18 am

cybernan

mitch done already!!! -- just got here

12:18 am

stidmama

hello nan!

12:19 am

Jellen

Hi, nan

12:19 am

stidmama

oh -- I know how that is, Jellen! LOL tricky cycle, that!

12:19 am

jillibus

hi nan -- dart finished before mitch -- took about 10 minutes

12:20 am

dart001

think mitch got here later than i

12:21 am

maniac_mitch

don't think i've seen a more peasly board than this one

12:21 am

dart001

think 70 or so is the smallest ive seen

12:22 am

rururocks

there was a 13 once

12:22 am

stidmama

I have seen grids in the 50s or so.

12:22 am

dart001

wow

12:22 am

jillibus

a 13???

12:22 am

licketySplitAUS

ruru - 13? The smallest I've seen is 35

12:22 am

flosey

we had a 50 + not too long ago

12:23 am

licketySplitAUS

and that's in the last 675 grids

12:23 am

dart001

i know on tangle we had boards that in 2 mins. people together only found 5 or 6

12:23 am

maniac_mitch

yea, saw a couple of those - saw one with 3 - i wonder if they use a different board generator here

12:24 am

licketySplitAUS

From what I know - Dr God has pre built all of the grids in advance. I'd imagine he throws out the really small, and really large ones.

12:24 am

dart001

i often wondered if some boards were set up and others were total random generated or not

12:24 am

maniac_mitch

makes sense

12:24 am

stidmama

got the J... down to 13

12:25 am

licketySplitAUS

There also might be rules on max number of repeating letters - I'm just guessing.

12:25 am

jillibus

Lickety -- the other night Dr_G had run out of grids again -- what did you do?

12:25 am

licketySplitAUS

As far as I know they are completely random - but I'd say there are some rules. jilibus - I would say so.

12:25 am

licketySplitAUS

I didn't do anything - wasn't me ;-)

12:26 am

1:06 am

rururocks

or both?

1:07 am

rururocks

contagiously inspirational?

1:07 am

moonwoof

Possibly. But it could also be that your monkey got bored with a short grid?

1:07 am

rururocks

contispatedly irrational?

1:08 am

rururocks

we lost the monkey over the weekend

1:08 am

2:34 am

sprite

wtg Mar!

2:34 am

herinfernallady

Yes but Stories and rhymes from different childhoods and cultures to open her to a wide range of experiences.

I'd really like to tell her the original versions of fairy tales too. No homogenised Disney stuff while I can help it.

Also any games that you can think of that help develop hand eye co-ordination from an early age would be good.

2:34 am

FranMag

yay mar!!!

2:34 am

lynxxx

Hooray for Just!

2:34 am

herinfernallady

That is what she is asking

herinfernallady

Thanks. I think Grimm Stories are a bit to old for her. Can you email me at her_infernal_ladyship@yahoo.com

2:38 am

sprite

thanks lynxxx!
Yes Fran... same one that keeps trying to start a flare against me. Thought I'd ask, lol, to be sure.

2:38 am

FranMag

well, at 18 months all they want to do is turn the pages anyway. :-)

2:39 am

herinfernallady

Well its interesting that shes asking now

2:39 am

sprite

best she can do at 18 months is cuddle her a lot, play a lot with her, talk to her a lot.

2:39 am

FranMag

i'll look around in the morning infernal, if that's okay

2:39 am

herinfernallady

Thanks Fran

2:39 am

lynxxx

Infernal - i am sure if your friend asks at her local library the childrens librarian would be able to suggest many suitable books

2:39 am

herinfernallady

Sprite at about 5 the b.f was reading The Hobbit

2:40 am

sprite

er yes lady?

2:40 am

FranMag

i used to read all the legends and stories from different countries. there was a series of libraby books like that.

2:40 am

FranMag

those were my favorite books

2:40 am

sprite

ah, great suggestion, lynxxx.

2:40 am

herinfernallady

Im pointing out that at 2 he was already ah? of the class

2:41 am

sprite

so did I, Fran. My mother used to collect fairytales from all over the world :)

2:41 am

herinfernallady

Thanks Fran

2:42 am

FranMag

that's pretty advanced infernal. is he related to the 18-month old?

2:42 am

sprite

but not at 18 months into reading, I think... still, Grimm is about the archtypical things. Very good stuff.

2:42 am

herinfernallady

Gosh No

2:42 am

lynxxx

Infernal - I would bet that the library would also be a source of animated fairytales cd's from diff countries as well. If not they would be able to order from other libraries. Most libraries have special infant/childrens sections

2:42 am

FranMag

ooh, Jellen's birthday is on the 12th

2:43 am

sprite

thanks Fran :)

P.J.

3:43 am

Andree

yes it is karys although i will never forget the excitement of that 1st grandchild

3:44 am

P.J.

isn't it wonderful,the next best thing to being a mom!

3:44 am

Andree

we took out a 1/4 page in the local paper saying a star is born

3:44 am

Karys

Yes, it was exciting, I think another reason is that I see Clare alot during the course of the week.

3:46 am

Andree

funny about daughters i see my daughter a lot too so spend more time with her kids

3:46 am

Karys

I do wonder too, whether because I had so many foster babies when the other Grandchildren were born, I was a bit 'babied' out, but now I don't foster anymore I am more looking forward to it.

3:47 am

Andree

congratulations

3:47 am

P.J.

3:57 am

FMitch

Sheesh, how long for Karys

3:58 am

jaianniah

TY, Karys!

3:58 am

Haz1558

No. it's not like you rubbed our noses in it when you sailed off to get married in the Caribbean.

3:58 am

Karys

only 10 days Mitch, it's a wedding and we're staying on for a bit of a holiday. It will be another one off the 'to do' list.

3:58 am

bfsog

hey all.

3:58 am

Haz1558

At Christmas. When the rest of us were knee deep in slush and sprouts.

3:59 am

Haz1558

Hello bf!

3:59 am

jaianniah

Hey, bfsog!

3:59 am

Karys

Strangely, I didn't miss the sprouts at all that year !

3:59 am

Karys

hi bfsog

3:59 am

FMitch

Hi bfsog

3:59 am

Andree

well i am off, happy babbling to you all

4:00 am

Haz1558

No - we had your share to wade through as well.

4:00 am

Haz1558

Bye Andreee, have a good evening.

4:00 am

Karys

Right, now I have imparted my news, I really must go.... back later for the last 11.

4:00 am

Haz1558

See you later, Karys. And it IS wonderful news.

4:01 am

FMitch

LOL Haz, and bye Karys

4:01 am

Karys

Thank you...I knew you would all be pleased !!

4:04 am

FMitch

BRB coffee time

4:11 am

FMitch

This is turning into a good grid, lots of old babble words well hidden.

4:12 am

Haz1558

Yes, some familiar friends that went walkabout for a while.

4:13 am

Haz1558

And some strangers that turned up out of the blue.

4:13 am

FMitch

Is S better now he has shared his germs with you all?

4:14 am

Haz1558

He's on the mend and daughter has gone back to school even though she isn't 100 per cent yet. Spangle remains healthy.

4:15 am

FMitch

Can you train her to answer the phone and bring you a cup of tea perhaps?

4:16 am

Haz1558

I don't think so. I know my limitations.

4:18 am

FMitch

Gasp - you have ... limitations...?!

4:19 am

FMitch

2 shocks in one morning, it's all too much

4:19 am

Haz1558

Oh yes. You already know about the sewing thing, it shouldn't be such a shock.

4:20 am

FMitch

Oh that is just an amusing little eccentricity of yours that we love

4:21 am

FMitch

There was a yum recipe in last weeks weekender for Apple/Blackberry crubmle cake, did you happen to see it?

4:21 am

Haz1558

Yes, but look how much it costs me when I need things sewn! Plus the disgrace of having daughter's name tapes criticised by the home economics teacher.

4:22 am

FMitch

Oh the ignomy of it, I had forgotten the home economics teach episode

4:22 am

Haz1558

I probably did see it, FMitch - I like the idea of Delia's cheat cookery, although it would probably take more of an effort to source all the cheat stuff than to do the things the hard way.

4:22 am

Haz1558

She lost a pupil for Home Economics GCSE over that episode.

4:24 am

FMitch

I'll email you the cake recipe, I can see it might have Sunday lunchtime possibilities.

4:25 am

Haz1558

Okay, I'm going to be all determined and disciplined in defiance of drippiness. Off I go to tackle the housework and THEN watch out walls, wallpaper is coming.

4:25 am

FMitch

I say! Fireworks. Took me by surprise there.

4:25 am

Haz1558

That would be great (the recipe)!

4:25 am

FMitch

Don't overdo it and see you later.

4:26 am

Haz1558

Well done us on fireworks. A mutual round of back-slapping.

4:26 am

FMitch

Congrats to you too :)

4:26 am

Haz1558

Okay - have a good day yourself - it's nice and bright here so a walk will be factored in.

4:26 am

Haz1558

Bye for now!

4:26 am

FMitch

TTFN Drippy.

7:42 am

Scrabbler

Luc--you will laugh--most of the schools in Buffalo are closed due to the extreme cold...windchills of 15-20 below zero F.

7:43 am

Scrabbler

The concern is always the low income kids without warm winter clothing.

7:43 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

7:43 am

montreal13

no no scrabs - minus 15-20 F approaches REAL colds - it's about 0 degrees C...

7:44 am

montreal13

7:50 am

Aloyisius

ty, Eva... saw it right off !

7:50 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Aloy. The first half of the drive was scary---whiteouts. I saw Mary but she was very irritable and asked me to leave after a while. I felt hurt (still do) but I know that was her pain/sadness/frustration speaking.

7:50 am

EvaNadine

theres an MA6, but i dont have that yet...

7:51 am

montreal13

sorry to hear that ((scrabs))

7:51 am

Scrabbler

Hmm, it's not whining....looking still.

7:51 am

EvaNadine

ahh, found the MA6 -- its an alternate spelling of craziness, insanity...

7:52 am

EvaNadine

(or at least, thats what it looks like)

7:52 am

montreal13

tx eva - got the ma6

7:52 am

Anniebrook

Oh Scrabbler...don't be hurt.

7:52 am

Scrabbler

Aha, I figured out wh7! TY for the clue.

7:53 am

gdine

my crazy insanity is in the way of me figuring out the ma 6 clue!

7:53 am

Aloyisius

oh dear.. yes, don't take it personally... I am like that too... don't want anyone around, need to withdraw for strength.. sorry you didn't have a better visit.. she will thank you later

7:53 am

montreal13

tx gdine, got theWH7

7:53 am

7:53 am

gdine

Yw...another clue for ma 6?

7:54 am

EvaNadine

MA6 ends up the sewing of the bottom of a pant leg of skirt

7:54 am

montreal13

hi shorty

7:54 am

Scrabbler

I know, Annie, but I am her friend, and I want to help her feel comfortable, and then she wanted to be alone, but she let her brother stay. I just want Mary back--the Mary I knew, but she is suffering SO much, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It breaks my heart.

7:54 am

Anniebrook

Newborns are fascinating creatures to watch. They were inside, in fluid, not breathing, then they come out and start breathing in this world. The transition is incredible. It still amazes me whenever I see a new baby at the hospital.

Poor caitlyn. I, on the other hand, am relieved to have a small one, as I have other things I need to be doing.

11:42 am

Vicuna

FM, I am strong indeed. But although you may be tall, your delicate and waiflike frame is as a summer breeze to heft and toss.

11:43 am

caitlyn

How romantic Vic !!LOL

11:48 am

Book Doctor Gwen

both Es are weird. you might need EL 4, add two letters that you say when you greet someone

11:49 am

nDanLia

other e is an announcer or host of a show

11:49 am

LadyNatts

that worked

11:49 am

Book Doctor Gwen

the other E is a recent word, based on a acronym, means the guy that hosts the show

Krys10

12:02 pm

LadyNatts

12:02 pm

Atalante

12:03 pm

FMitch

Darn I hate it when the phone goes, return to the log and you have NO idea what people are talking 'bout

12:03 pm

LadyNatts

Is that a lion taunt, ata?

12:03 pm

Vicuna

"extra crispy feet?" Isn't that the specialty of our local Chinese restaurant?

12:03 pm

caitlyn

le4/5 and le4/7 are normal words Lady

12:03 pm

Atalante

firebirds, ABBA and dancing on hot coals

12:03 pm

Vicuna

Hey, FM, if you have to leave the chat to get into that state, you're probably doing better than most.

12:04 pm

nDanLia

one's in gasoline ; other on a tree

12:04 pm

FMitch

Oh and that makes it all clear thanks Ata

12:04 pm

LadyNatts

I have the tree word

12:04 pm

sadie52

the other one is also what superman couldnt see though

12:04 pm

Atalante

I was at the hospital a few days ago and a local cat wandered in. One of the consultants - who is a really lovely and funny Chinese guy - looks at it and yells "dinner!". Everyone burst out laughing

12:05 pm

caitlyn

LOL Ata I like that !!

12:05 pm

FMitch

lol

12:05 pm

sadie52

lol Atalante

12:06 pm

We regularly threaten to eat our cat. So far we've always concluded it wouldn't be worth the trouble.

12:06 pm

LadyNatts

fish me, please

12:06 pm

Atalante

it was a wonderfully funny moment in the midst of much angst at the clinic. It was a beautiful cat too. Apparently he visits regularly

12:06 pm

sadie52

12:06 pm

caitlyn

The whiskers could get stuck in your teeth Vic

12:06 pm

LadyNatts

Passing fish over to Lady..make sure the cat doesnt get it though

12:07 pm

FMitch

Too much chat and not enough work Lady!!

12:07 pm

Vicuna

Well, we're saving her for the end of civilization. Then a few whiskers won't seem such a big price to pay.

12:07 pm

granadan

I dont know Vic - properly stewed it might last a couple of good meals. Plenty of ginger and cumin...

12:08 pm

Atalante

your cat has at last got to have more meat on it than Sily!

12:09 pm

Vicuna

Ata, you've been away ministering again, I take it? Are things stabilized again now?

12:09 pm

LadyNatts

lol.. that's funny. you know, I got my kids siamese fighting fish for a christmas present... one day, my daughter made a tuna sandwich to eat... the cat was all over her, and she told the cat "no! my fish!" .. so the cat went upstairs to her bedroom and ate the fish out of the bowl.

12:09 pm

FMitch

I am shocked at the lot of you

12:09 pm

Atalante

stabilised till Wednesday. Big op then!

2:07 pm

FMitch

you stole my line!! Hi Haz

2:07 pm

nDanLia

'lo

2:08 pm

Haz1558

My recommendation. If you have to drip, use Kleenex Balsam tissues. They're soft.

2:08 pm

nDanLia

that was quite good FM, thks

2:08 pm

Atalante

no! get Kleenex Olbas tissues. bliss

2:08 pm

Atalante

I know *grins*

2:08 pm

FMitch

so long as you don't get mixed up with the wallpaper Haz

2:08 pm

Haz1558

Oh, I haven't tried the Olbas ones. Will they take away the itchiness?

2:09 pm

Atalante

they are really nice. if you have a stuffy nose they work miracles

2:09 pm

Haz1558

I think I now know how people with hay fever feel.

2:09 pm

FMitch

what they turn your nose into wine?

2:10 pm

Atalante

oooo! I wish1

2:10 pm

Haz1558

I reckon I look like the before version of some miracle cures. I just want to feel like the after version!

2:11 pm

Atalante

but honestly, being serious for a sec *gasp*, if you have a stuffed up nose, do get the Olbas tissues. You are *wonderful*

2:11 pm

Atalante

You? LMAO

2:11 pm

Atalante

they!

2:11 pm

Atalante

ok, I'm half asleep. Or making Freudian slips. Or something

2:11 pm

Haz1558

I will. And thank you for telling me I'm wonderful.

2:12 pm

FMitch

2:13 pm

Haz1558

Ah praise. there's many a surprise in babble.

2:13 pm

praise2him

have monkeyed all around it and can't seem to come up with the right combo

2:13 pm

Haz1558

It's the same structure as Sally the actress or the area dreamt of by Kevin Costner.

2:15 pm

praise2him

ty haz--found it

2:15 pm

Haz1558

That's good!

2:16 pm

FMitch

HAve you achieved nirvana with the grid Haz and what of the decorating?

2:17 pm

Haz1558

The grid was a lot easier than the decorating! I've made a start this afternoon and hoping to speed up tomorrow.

2:17 pm

praise2him

great--we are under snow advisory tonight

2:17 pm

Atalante

what are you decorating, Haz? and do you like the springer in my pic? look in her eyes ........

2:19 pm

Haz1558

If I look in her eyes I'll get hypnotised........ I'm decorating what used to be a study/spare bedroom and making it into a second lounge/study.

2:19 pm

FMitch

Oh dear, how much are they predicting praise?

2:19 pm

praise2him

they say we can get up to 6 inches

2:19 pm

Atalante

you will, you will, but its worth it

2:19 pm

praise2him

and I have to be at a meeting for work tonite

2:19 pm

Haz1558

I did the painting last week, waited longer than expected for the wallpaper to arrive - it came on Saturday. New carpet is down, new furniture can come whenever the papering is finished.

2:20 pm

FMitch

Just what you don't need then praise

2:20 pm

praise2him

well hubby is treasurer so he has to be at meeting tonite too

2:20 pm

praise2him

2:20 pm

praise2him

I guess if it gets too bad by tomorrow I will just stay home from work

2:21 pm

FMitch

2:21 pm

praise2him

2:21 pm

Atalante

ooo wonderful! photos I hope on completion

2:21 pm

praise2him

LOL

2:21 pm

Haz1558

You'll have to hope for a longer grid for tomorrow, in that case.

2:21 pm

praise2him

I am just really tired of snow and ice

2:22 pm

praise2him

fell on the ice a couple of weekends ago and messed up my knee

2:22 pm

FMitch

Haz, can you tell Ata that I am not talking to her.

2:22 pm

Haz1558

I'll take photos - not sure whether they'll be wonderful, though. I'm always nervous to see what a finished scheme actually turns out like.

2:22 pm

Haz1558

Ata, FM isn't talking to you.

2:22 pm

Haz1558

Ata, do you have a message for FM?

2:23 pm

FMitch

Thank you *sits with back facing poopy person*

2:23 pm

Haz1558

(I hope I'm not the poopy person - I'm the drippy one)

2:24 pm

praise2him

LOL

2:24 pm

FMitch

2:31 pm

Haz1558

(Hoping that counts another few points towards my Nobel Peace Prize. I sure won't get the one for physics)

2:32 pm

FMitch

Of course, *grabs Ata in a hug and knocks flosey photos all over the floor*

2:32 pm

flosey

I don't see any place in my profile to enter - that little flickr box in profile now says flosey has signed up - tell flosey to add pics

2:32 pm

Haz1558

2:38 pm

Atalante

2:38 pm

FMitch

je4 is spanish for boss aparently

2:38 pm

Michnick

I see that, mitch, but I have enough fighting in my house!

2:38 pm

flosey

2:39 pm

Atalante

2:39 pm

flosey

2:41 pm

flosey
