5:19 am

pinkhatlil

well, elder i had sorted out my fees but, they came through too late, so, i have differed until September. Recently i have had a change of heart regarding careers, i now want to get into the Police Force and work my way up to CID. So perhaps Uni not working out is a blessing in disguise!

5:20 am

pinkhatlil

bye nono, brb

5:24 am

elder

Pnk, sometimes life takes steers us to another path. Police ! good choice for change of career. even in the Police they need Psychologists so you may have the opportunity to do both in the force. What ever you decided, I am sure with your determination you will succeed. How is your little one - bless:)

am surprised about the mirin!

5:58 am

MonkeyGames

Oh well. Yesterday it rejected meme as well. Sigh.

6:04 am

BabbleRabble

ENABLE is the perfect arbiter for babble as Dr God intended. An arbitrary martinet that forces flexibility in a consistently unfair manner.

oooh BabRab - sounds like you're annoyed - LOL

6:07 am

BabbleRabble

Not at all .... the caterwauling amuses me

6:13 am

Hi. Hpe you don't mind me joining in. I was livid when it wouldn't accept meme and korma.

hi hydra!

Oh wow. Good for you. That's such a hard thing to do. Friend of mine is just qualifying this year.

6:20 am

kje

I'm awake - didn't say I was friendly! - I'm not really a morning person either - I'm just awake

6:20 am

Scrabbler

I eagerly look forward to those days/nights when I can stay up to 1 AM and then sleep in til 9 and not rush off in the morning.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Do you know that I haven't even looked at the grid yet? Here I go!

6:21 am

hydra

Ah yes, but how long will you have to wait til those days come, Scrab?

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Some weekends and when on vacation, hydra.

6:22 am

good phantom Lady - will likely need that phantom by the end of this puzzle

6:22 am

LadyNatts

6:23 am

Scrabbler

I was looking forward to spending today outside, sitting under the canopy of trees and watching birds fly to and from the birdfeeders, but it is 36 degrees F and snowing, not a spring day.

6:23 am

hydra

Sorry I put the idea in your head, kje. What you having on it? I had home-made marmalade on mine. I love Marmite, too.

6:24 am

Hi all. The stats had been posted on BabAnonby Bookwomen but I've had to delete them due to a 'technical' problem. Panic ye not, I have re-posted them.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Not a word, so no need to go to the PB.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Hi and thanks, Jacula!

6:30 am

Hi Jac! Many thanks. *all rush BabAnon and crash server*

6:31 am

Jacula

I'll let you know the total points for the grid when I've finished it myself.

Thanks, BabRab. I'll add that.

You're quite right, Rab!

6:34 am

Scrabbler

Hi BR...I am looking for the AA5 now.

6:34 am

caitlyn

Good afternoon all........

6:34 am

Jacula

It's done. Now I can get back to my final 36 words, of which 'aa' is one...

Hi caitlyn

6:35 am

Special toast deliver whizzing thru the ether to kje

6:35 am

Jacula

Ah, got the 'aa' now. I'd tried that exclamation with a sigle 'a' earlier.

6:35 am

hydra

How are you doing, BabRab?

6:35 am

kje

95 here - and thanks for the aa clue - wouldn't have looked there

6:35 am

Jacula

*or even a siNgle 'e'.

6:36 am

kje

6:36 am

hydra

I wouldn't found it, either, without help.

How long did the marathon take you this morning hydra andJac

6:36 am

caitlyn

How long did the marathon take you this morning hydra andJac

6:37 am

kje

hydra and jac ran a marathon!!!!!

6:37 am

caitlyn

Oh Ihave hiccups LOL

6:37 am

Jacula

cait - I don't know if Hydra's run the marathon (if you mean London) but I haven't.

6:37 am

hydra

As long as a bowl of fruit and yoghurt, a piece of toast and two mugs of tea, caitlyn! In my dreams kje.

6:38 am

caitlyn

LOL!

6:38 am

hydra

I can't even run to the corner shop!

6:38 am

Jacula

Ditto, hydra.:D

6:38 am

BabbleRabble

6:38 am

wow - I was about to be sooooo impressed - glad to know you're just mortal like the rest of us

6:38 am

Jacula

What am I grinning about? It's terrible really, isn't it?:(

6:39 am

hydra

Yes, it is, Jac. I have a gym sub and last went 10 days ago! Did about 8 k on various machines and ached for days!

6:39 am

caitlyn

Im exhausted watching them on the tv

6:40 am

Jacula

Hydra - the gardening season is beginning, weather permitting. That'll keep me fit.

6:40 am

BabbleRabble

pr 8 -- grammar and spelling authority does this to MSS

6:40 am

kje

anhmmm babrab - thinking - thought kerner was about riots or something

6:40 am

Scrabbler

OK, I have the list up on another window, TY, Jacula.

6:41 am

kje

oops - saw it - thanks

6:41 am

Jacula

y/w, Scrabbs. Sorry I had to remove Bookwomen's but I did say why in Babanon.

6:41 am

hydra

That's true, Jac. However this garden belongs to my BF and I'm not allowed to do anything in it, for various reasons best known to him. Tho I sneakily mow the lawn and deadhead the roses sometimes.

6:41 am

Scrabbler

It's OK, Jacula, I just started the grid 30 min ago and hadn't looked yet.

6:42 am

Jacula

You can come and help me, Hydra. Lots of digging to be done and bark to put down this year. It does my back in these days.

6:42 am

pinkhatlil

hello everyone!

6:42 am

Jacula

I'm hoping P will make me some raised beds where the borders are now mostly waterlogged.

6:43 am

hydra

Bark is great. It really smothers the weeds, doesn't it? And slugs hate it too.

6:43 am

Jacula

Hi, pink.

6:43 am

Scrabbler

Finally, with an assist from the dictionary, I figured out aa5. Grrrrrrrrowl.

6:43 am

hi jac, scrabbler, kje, babbrabb, and caitlyn. Is elder still here?

6:44 am

Jacula

I did used to use cocoa shells, which smell fantastic when the sun's on them. However, I read that cats/dogs can eat them and poison themselves.

6:44 am

Jacula

LOL, Babrab re the dog/bark.

6:44 am

Scrabbler

And I just got BR's joke, haha. My brain waves are in slow-motion.

6:45 am

caitlyn

I haven't heard of that before Jac

6:46 am

Scrabbler

My cousin uses the cocoa shells for a covering--smells like chocolate all summer.

6:46 am

Scrabbler

Jacula, my sister with bunnies said good-bye to her beloved Chloe on Thursday night. Chloe was a Holland Lop and sick recently, rallied back, then deteriorated. They buried her next to Bunny Chestnut in the back yard. They have 4 remaining bunnies.

Yikes, my pager is going off....BRB

Scrabbler

I forgot that I am on-call until the office opens at 9:30.

7:15 am

kje

7:15 am

Angelsong

my husband said he did not mind helping me set up the filing system, but was concerned it would not be used. I told him, you are less likely to use this system than I am, since I am accustomed to organizing things on a daily basis..

7:15 am

NonnieLight

I guess I still have sleep in my eyes. I was trying to think what the japanese BEAR was.

7:15 am

frantique

lol

7:16 am

kje

oh - just looked back - was afraid I had misspelled it !!!

7:18 am

kje

that ght is so unfortunately placed

7:18 am

NonnieLight

kje. I really like the baseball poem in your profile. Jillis son is talented!

7:19 am

NonnieLight

Angel, I just got my files (back) together about 4 or five months ago. It was hard work but worth it!

7:19 am

kje

thanks nonnie - be sure and tell her you thought so - she is rightfully proud : )

7:19 am

NonnieLight

I will and she should be :o)

7:20 am

hiya pink!

7:21 am

oops, grandson...I think I said "son"

7:21 am

7:23 am

NonnieLight

Isn't it nice when we can work with our hubbies without the fur flying? :o) It is a nasty chore but someone has to do it.

7:23 am

Angelsong

my husband is a special man. he really, truly is.

7:23 am

NonnieLight

I was wondering the same, kje.

7:23 am

kje

Far out! - too bad it isn't one word

7:25 am

frantique

aww thats nice that you have a nice husband.

7:25 am

frantique

Mine is driving me nuts lately. i think its a mid life crisis

7:26 am

frantique

its so unsettling, I'm not use to him behaving this way. he's always been so nice

7:26 am

NonnieLight

Mine too, Angel. I have given words of thanks and praise for him many times. But every once in a while he can find that one nerve and then he plucks it!

7:27 am

kje

heard a author talking about using dog training techniques are her husband on NPR yesterday - she was hilarious! - book is called "what I learned from Shamu"

7:28 am

frantique

LOL maybe I should get that book!

7:29 am

kje

oops - it was what shamu taught me

7:29 am

NonnieLight

lol sounds interesting :o)

7:29 am

Scrabbler

Angel, you convinced me to order the Get Organized system from Maria Gracia. Although I get her newsletter and have my files, I need a detailed system, so I ordered it!

7:30 am

NonnieLight

perhaps it is male menopause, fran...don't their hormones get all out of whack too?

7:30 am

Scrabbler

I heard that author too, kje. The husband figured out after a while that she was training him as one would a dog.

7:30 am

frantique

i guess.

7:30 am

kje

any clues for a in top left corner?

7:31 am

frantique

I think with him he reached 50 and freaked

7:31 am

frantique

it started the year before he turned 50. its been a horrible 2 years

thanks scrabb

7:32 am

frantique

he will not talk to me bout it. its so strange. were were sooooooooooo close for 28 years, we're married 20 years.

7:32 am

Scrabbler

I think it is more mental/emotional due to existential stuff, just like females experience, but we deal with menopause and the physiologic issues too.

7:33 am

Scrabbler

Too bad, Frantique. Are you in counseling together?

7:33 am

BabbleRabble

aw 5 --- bush though the military would shock and *** .... aw --add gerund ending

7:33 am

NonnieLight

aw + the 3 letter end

7:33 am

frantique

i've started menopause and I cant even talk to him about it. He doesnt want to know! and now he's finding young girls 'INTERESTING'

7:33 am

kje

dumb dumb dumb - thanks babrab

7:33 am

frantique

he will not go to counceling. I think I'm going to start going myself.

7:34 am

NonnieLight

I think that is a good place to start, fran. I hope it helps. Perhaps in time he'll agree to go also.

7:35 am

frantique

some one i know just found out her husband is having an affair with a younger woman. Shes been going to groups and reading up on the subject

7:36 am

frantique

she said that Men are actually cowards and that they will try to make it the wifes fault. and will also try to make her life so miserable that she will be the one to leave.

7:36 am

bonkler

that's a pretty sweeping generalization lol

7:39 am

Frantique--counseling will help you with your emotions and to know what to say and how to behave with him--puts you in more control.

7:39 am

evanonut

bonk a bonk bonk

7:39 am

Angelsong

fran: I asked my husband if he would ever consider having an affair. He looked at me for the longest time, and said, "why in the world would I ever do that? It would hurt our marriage."

7:39 am

frantique

The thing that shocks me is my husband has always been a very intelligent open minded, reasonable person and now thats out the window!

7:39 am

NonnieLight

lol loredana!

7:39 am

evanonut

i recommend cats over men, at least they don't pretend to like you if they don't

7:39 am

7:40 am

EspritdJean

that's where Lover's lane comes in

7:40 am

evanonut

i don't believe my husband capable of an affair, for that you have to leave the house or be computer literate

7:40 am

kje

plus I'm allergic to cats

7:40 am

Angelsong

absolutely, Loredana. He knows I will not tolerate that. it would be the END.

7:41 am

you will all hate me but must let you know ..... all men will cheat if they think they can get away with it!!!

7:42 am

Scrabbler

Hahaha everybody!

7:42 am

loredana

wel done frantique!!!!

7:42 am

evanonut

UNLESS.... they are uncapable of it

7:42 am

kje

co 4/8 - I was being silly and entered it and it's a freakin word that means being silly!

7:42 am

bonkler

loredana that just plain isn't true

7:43 am

Scrabbler

Not all, because I know many honorable men with integrity and great character.

7:43 am

frantique

Its hard to get away with anything these days! He went sailing to the virgin islands last month and I saw him on web cams !!!! LOL

7:43 am

Angelsong

that's just the point, loredana. my husband would not be able to hide it. I would know, immediately. He cannot lie convincingly.

7:43 am

frantique

i could never cheat.. it would be written all over my face !!! I cant lie to save my life!

7:44 am

loredana

angel thats correct we know but lets be honest they are all little boys at heart and a new toy is exciting

7:44 am

pinkhatlil

can someone clue the in7 please

7:44 am

NonnieLight

The new toy may be exciting but not all will choose to play with it!

7:44 am

evanonut

i certainly wouldn't cheat...just the idea of it scares me straight

7:44 am

BabbleRabble

I am getting used to the almost daily bashing ... but nonetheless wonder why women get married .... the number of negative comments is 1000 to one ... rent a friend and don't get married

7:44 am

loredana

Pink you been so quiet there have you heard from Herin?

7:45 am

loredana

BR well said i agree with you

7:45 am

frantique

yeah.. for all them men who throw out their old rag dolls for a new barbie.. I just can't wait for them to realize that barbie is plastic and fake and grows old too! LOL

7:45 am

AnnieOakley

All the men I've dated - bar one - have been lovely to me :-)

7:45 am

evanonut

well babrab, snot like we women don't get the comments...we could be the best wife in the world, but put a man around his buddies and he'll make up something to complain about just to fit in.

7:46 am

BabbleRabble

so? why get married? you just prove my point

7:46 am

bonkler

perhaps loredana is describing the self fulfilling prophecy. if you believe that all of us will cheat, you will treat us like cheaters. eventually the one fortunate enough to share your space will feel that he might as well cheat since that is how he is regarded. no?

7:46 am

kje

I need in 7 too - at least now I know it's a 7 - which does help some : )

7:46 am

frantique

true .. bad friends is not good !

I told my husband when we began our relationship that if he wants me, fine. If not, fine. But I don't play second fiddle to anyone.

7:47 am

frantique

he hooked up with some trashy men when he took up sailing two years ago

7:47 am

AnnieOakley

hello katie and all

they are alocholics and cheat on their wifes and girlfriends all the time

7:47 am

7:49 am

loredana

thanks for your positive comments Scrabbler

7:49 am

bonkler

the other part of the equation that isn't being stated here, for every guy that cheats there needs to be a woman who is also either cheating or willing to accommodate the cheating for her own selfish ends.

7:49 am

Scrabbler

It is snowing here--everything is white outside.

7:49 am

Sam

I had one named Julie, half boxer, actually, but she talked. amazing dog.

9:54 am

Aloyisius

(-: glad you found it, kje

9:55 am

Aloy--it is so variable, as so many rabbit owners do not provide optimal nutrition and therefore the rabbits develop GI problems that can kill quickly.

found a new system that is working for me (without Lickety's list) - pasted the clues (from Babblers Anonymous) to a document (in Word), then as i find words I highlight them in color, then when a letter tile is grey on the grid, I just delete it from my list - is this too crazy or anal or what? it is helping me

10:38 am

featherbee

just got new bed rails on daniel's bed, his headboard (which was part of his crib) attached, and the bed put back on. it's one of the oooold ones that is a wood frame and i swear has bricks in the springs, it's so heavy!

Hello stidmama.

11:47 am

11:48 am

You made the sun come out, Stid, TY! The sunshine is motivating me to go out for a walk.

11:49 am

stidmama

enjoy, cousin! I shall hit the garden in a little bit if I can

11:49 am

stidmama

hey flask

11:49 am

Haz1558

co4/8 - double your vowel and finish with a flourishing letter.

11:49 am

stidmama

flask: hairdo

11:49 am

Flask1

Oh well here is my wonderful new.....my son and his girlfriend Louise became engaged to be married last night!

11:49 am

stidmama

oh, sorry, that wasn't between others. *sigh*

11:49 am

Haz1558

HOORAY!

11:50 am

stidmama

yippee!!! *starts baking petits 4s for rehearsal party*

11:50 am

Haz1558

You must be pleased, Flask, you've been hinting about wanting to get him married for a while.

11:50 am

Flask1

lol....thankyou!

11:50 am

Flask1

am delighted Haz.....will post a pic of them soon....

11:51 am

Haz1558

Congratulations to the happy couple (and mother-in-law to be)

11:51 am

Flask1

Thankyou very much!

11:52 am

Flask1

now tell me....whats a flourishing letter????

11:52 am

Haz1558

Well, his fiancee has a nice name, (my first daughter is Louise)

11:52 am

stidmama

a tall, pretty letter with a Flourish at the top...

11:52 am

Haz1558

Maybe a better clue would be to say that the hairdo and this word differ only in one vowel.

11:52 am

Flask1

yes......and she will be Louise MacLean.....I think it has a nice ring to it!

11:52 am

stidmama

(that capital letter is a h4)

11:53 am

stidmama

oh, it does -- sounds like a romance novelist's name...

11:53 am

Haz1558

It sounds good, Flask. I'm really pleased for you.

11:53 am

Flask1

lol.....yes stid....I was just wondering there....thanks!

11:54 am

Flask1

got it!!

11:54 am

stidmama

so, why, if one can be naked, one cannot "nake?"

11:54 am

Haz1558

Great! I'm surprised you can concentrate at all today.

11:55 am

Flask1

have any of you noticed the nice atmosphere there is in here, since there is no list....and everyone is chipping in with help?

11:55 am

Flask1

Och I know......my mind keeps drifting away with wedding ideas!!!...lol

11:56 am

Haz1558

I've not been here for long, Flask and it is quite peaceful. Early on can be a bit frenetic for me with all the word finding and declarations.

11:56 am

Haz1558

Have they set a date yet?

11:56 am

stidmama

och? as in scottish? LOL next thing you'll say aye, and "wee sleekit" and such!

11:56 am

Flask1

oh I find that so confusing....just ignore it and let it go by!

11:57 am

Flask1

no date as we speak....but I shall keep you posted!

11:57 am

Haz1558

Stid - I say Och all the time as well, and aye for yes. And wee for little. It stretches the vocabulary.

11:57 am

Haz1558

You know us, Flask, we love to organise from af4/7.

11:58 am

Flask1

11:58 am
