12:22 am

MonkeyGames

Morning folks! How many words today?

12:22 am

loredana

morning monkey 79 and its fairly easy

12:23 am

jillibus

hi monkey -- a piddling 79

12:23 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, that sounds NICE!

12:24 am

MonkeyGames

You know, I have always thought yellowjackets wre hornets... until a hornet got in here last night. Oh MAN, that was one huge and angry insect! OK, on with the grid!

12:25 am

westford

hi monkey hope you showed him the door

12:25 am

loredana

hornets not nice monkey

12:26 am

jillibus

brb

12:26 am

loredana

ok jilli

12:26 am

MonkeyGames

Sent my husband out (sting-allergic) and managed to surprise it with a big cup and wrestle it outside. Thing was almost 3 cm long!

12:27 am

westford

we'll have to call you hornet hunter from now on

12:27 am

MonkeyGames

Hmmm. Just hope another one doesn't come along... but we've lived in Holland for 15 years without seeing one...

12:28 am

westford

and hope it doesn't build a nest in the eaves

12:28 am

westford

I wonder if that was the queen

12:29 am

MonkeyGames

I hope not too! The arthropods seem to be onto me though. I don't mind dealing with regular ones but a few weeks ago I also had to deal with th ebiggest wolf spider I#ve seen in years. HUGE, I tell you. And that's another aggressive species.

12:29 am

MonkeyGames

I don't know enough about hornets to say, West, but I sure hope it wasn't a queen!

12:29 am

westford

must be that Holland cheese

12:29 am

MonkeyGames

If it was it shoud head down the path to the dilapidated barn the swallows nest in.

12:30 am

MonkeyGames

westford

12:41 am

loredana

goodnight melon

12:41 am

MonkeyGames

So it has se4 but not meso? Its acceptance/rejectance of prefixes can be so annoying!meso

12:41 am

MonkeyGames

Odd, how it tagged taht on ethere...

12:41 am

MonkeyGames

Maybe my coffee isn't working yet...

12:42 am

westford

I think that se may be a truck

12:43 am

MonkeyGames

Sure but it must still be a prefix, althogh I have never reallyw ondered for what... probably something with rig in it somewhere...

12:45 am

westford

never thought much about it sounds like a job for google lol

12:45 am

MonkeyGames

I'll get around to it!

12:45 am

loredana

fireworks for me yay

12:46 am

MonkeyGames

Yay!!

12:46 am

12:46 am

flosey

wtg Lore, good for you

12:46 am

loredana

12:46 am

loredana

thankyou flosey

12:46 am

MonkeyGames

Oh dear, my great dane is trying to stay flat and creep up on the cat.

12:46 am

Babs1

hmm...not that easy to me!

12:47 am

loredana

many addons

12:47 am

loredana

oh dear monkey

12:47 am

westford

didn't know you had pets monkey what are their names?

12:48 am

MonkeyGames

Yup. The cat (SCSI) is on Walter's little armchair, and the dog (Saskia) is crawling her way, no doubt looking for an eyebrow wash (cute as hell, that).

12:49 am

MonkeyGames

Saskia has over the years gradually figured out that trotting up to the cat and repeatedly poking her with her nose is counterproductive.

12:49 am

westford

aww

12:49 am

loredana

have fun everyone see you next time ciao

12:49 am

loredana

tell jilli bye from me when she gets back thanks

12:50 am

westford

bye lore

12:50 am

MonkeyGames

Bye Lore!

12:50 am

flosey

bye lore, will do

12:51 am

MonkeyGames

Misdip should be a word. You know, when teh chip breaks or you get the wrong stuff on it.

12:51 am

westford

I thought our cats had strange names lol

12:51 am

westford

absolutely

12:52 am

MonkeyGames

We didn't name SCSI, it came with her. I think it's funny that my cat is pretty much obsolete.

12:52 am

MonkeyGames

You should see me try to tell Dutch vet techs what her name is.

12:52 am

westford

like most computer gizmos

12:52 am

MonkeyGames

Indeed.

12:52 am

flosey

flosey

bye now Kazz, enjoy your dinner out

1:14 am

jillibus

YAY kaz!!!

1:15 am

jillibus

icon theme on Lickety's page? Yes, but it's much easier right here on the Expert page -- up there in Resources.

1:15 am

flosey

oh, thanks, hadn't seen it there either

1:18 am

flosey

goodnight all, off to bed

1:21 am

jillibus

1:54 am

stidmama

hello friends

1:54 am

stidmama

sweet dreams flosey {{{{hugs}}}}

1:56 am

jillibus

hi stid -- I think we're aloooone

1:57 am

stidmama

hey jill -- that's okay, it's really really late. I am up prepping for the presentation I am giving to my math class tomorrow.

1:57 am

stidmama

Taking a mini break while things print

1:57 am

Jellen

Hello...

1:57 am

jillibus

how's the math going?

1:57 am

stidmama

hey jellen -- you're up late (or way early)

1:58 am

jillibus

hi jellen

1:58 am

stidmama

it's okay. I got WAY behind last week when I couldn't hold a book open (even when it was propped up) or walk much. I am better now, but feeling very behind

1:59 am

jillibus

have you had a look at this grid yet?

1:59 am

jillibus

or have you finished already, lol?

1:59 am

stidmama

I will be completely done by the end of the week though, and concentrating just on the psych and children's lit. Those should be a little easier for me

1:59 am

stidmama

I just started when I said hello, and already have 37. It's not bad today

2:01 am

jillibus

didn't know you were studying those too, stid!

2:02 am

jillibus

and how are YOU doing, jellen?

2:02 am

Jellen

I'm worried about Tim...

2:03 am

Jellen

And struggling a bit with depression.

2:03 am

jillibus

of course you are -- but is there more news?

2:04 am

Jellen

Did you know he had his surgery and the sentinel node was positive for cancer?

2:06 am

jillibus

no -- hadn't heard. I know it's not the same area but when I had my surgery for breast cancer there were 3 affected nodes, so had extra radiation. That was 8 years ago and so far so good.

2:08 am

Jellen

He has his follow-up appointment with the general surgeon on Wednesday, so we'll learn more then. And we haven't met with an oncologist yet.

2:10 am

jillibus

remind me, jellen -- where was the surgery?

2:11 am

Jellen

He had part of his right middle finger amputated, and corresponding lymph nodes removed.

2:12 am

stidmama

sorry, I am back.

2:13 am

jillibus

oh, miserable!

2:13 am

stidmama

Jellen, what are you doing to take care of yourself?

2:13 am

jillibus

wb, stid

2:13 am

stidmama

blast. gotta go again. *sigh*

2:13 am

Jellen

Eating lots of junk food and sleeping a lot!

2:14 am

jillibus

what's happeneing, stid?

2:15 am

jillibus

can you go for pleasant walks instead of the junk food, jellen?

2:16 am

Jellen

It's terribly hot and humid here, Jilli, and I'm a temperature wimp.

2:16 am

jillibus

any place to go for a cooling swim?

2:17 am

sprite

morning dear all

2:17 am

Jellen

I'm not a swimmer...

2:17 am

Jellen

Hi, sprite!

2:17 am

jillibus

hello sprite :)

2:18 am

sprite

bad weather, Jellen?

2:18 am

jillibus

well, how about a good book to get lost in? And a cool, icy fruity healthy drink? Lemonade? Iced tea?

2:19 am

Jellen

Just summer in Oklahoma, sprite..

2:19 am

jillibus

jellen's worried about her Tim

2:19 am

Jellen

I need to try that, Jilli...Thanks

2:20 am

sprite

ah, ok. My recipe for really hot days is to put my feet into cold water. Like 2 buckets, if you have nothing other. And if you must move around, a cold wet towel around your neck. Cools good.

2:20 am

sprite

what's with Tim?

2:21 am

Jellen

Tim has melanoma that started in his hand and has spread to his lymph nodes.

2:22 am

Flask1

Morning all.......a clue please for em4/8 please?

2:22 am

sprite

omg... Jellen, I am so sorry. Of course you worry.

2:23 am

stidmama

back again, I am "unwell" Jill. I shall recover, however.

2:23 am

jillibus

oh stid, on top of everything else!

2:23 am

stidmama

Jellen, I highly recommend NOT eating a lot of junk food (it can make stress worse) and instead choosing healthy things you love to eat.

2:24 am

stidmama

hello flask and sprite

2:24 am

sprite

oh stiddie :(

2:24 am

Flask1

Hi Stid!

2:24 am

stidmama

When I eat foods that are high in sugar, especially, I struggle more with the anxiety and depression that seem to dog my heels on the best days.

2:24 am

jillibus

hi flask -- trying to think of a clue for em4/8!

2:24 am

stidmama

hey spritely -- so how are the arms doing? did you go see the doc?

2:24 am

Jellen

Yes, stidmama, I know better!

2:25 am

Flask1

Thanks Jilli.....

2:25 am

sprite

em + swimming animal, drop vowel and last letter

2:25 am

stidmama

em 4/8: em + almost highest point letter + plural letter?

2:26 am

Flask1

ok ladies....thankyou!

2:26 am

jillibus

em + no i** ands or buts

2:26 am

stidmama

go flask go!

2:26 am

stidmama

oh Jill! your clue is WAY betterer!

2:27 am

jillibus

but slowerer!

2:27 am

sprite

and mine takes the price :P

2:27 am

jillibus

prize?

2:27 am

sprite

Prize. Yes. Sorry.

2:28 am

jillibus

oui, c'est difficile, quand il ya prix et prix, pas le meme chose

2:29 am

Flask1

well I thought they were ALL exceptional!!!

2:29 am

jillibus

atta girl, flask :D

2:29 am

sprite

the hand is a lot better, stid. The lump is pea size now and I can close my hand. Pain is a lot less as well. Think I will wait another day to see if it goes away all by itself. Thanks for asking :)

2:30 am

stidmama

glad it's better. I was really worried about you.

2:30 am

sprite

in dutch it is prijs and prijs as well. I think it is interesting it has different spellings in english. Tough though, because I will have a translation issue with one important remark.

2:31 am

sprite

(((stid))) Please sweetie, worry about yourself and not about me. I am a survivor through and through, for some obscure reason.
I am not at all happy with hearing you are 'unwell'.

2:32 am

sprite

dods

2:32 am

sprite

sorry about the nonword :(

2:32 am

stidmama

oh, the "unwell" is a euphemism for tummy troubles, sprite. It is not my norm, but not unusual, either. Just really inconvenient.

2:32 am

stidmama

if only it had worked, sprite!

2:34 am

sprite

aw, ok *sigh of relief*
Well, still no fun, but a lot better than what I feared. Be gentle with yourself, and go easy on the health stuff, lol.

2:34 am

sprite

jilli, do the price - prize words sound alike?

2:34 am

stidmama

yes ma'am! I shall go easy as anything, as soon as I finish printing all the papers I want to use in the morning...

2:34 am

FMitch

Add in a vowel + pl sprite and you will get 2 words from your non word.
Morning all

2:34 am

jillibus

finished -- but your video has disappeared, sprite! :(

2:35 am

stidmama

YAY Jill!!!!

2:35 am

sprite

darn, again. That is twice already.

2:35 am

sprite

hiya FMitch, will try :)

2:35 am

FMitch

Congrats jilli

2:35 am

sprite

wtg jilli, congrats on finishing!

2:36 am

Jellen

Yay, jilli!!!

2:36 am

sprite

unstoppable stidmama :) *hug*

2:36 am

jillibus

no, sprite -- price rhymes with twice. Prize has a buzz on the end, if you get my drift.

2:36 am

jillibus

thanks, all, and hi Ermintrude

2:36 am

FMitch

Hello sprite, jilli, stiddy and Jellen, good to see you.

2:37 am

stidmama

2:37 am

stidmama

hello FM!

2:37 am

sprite

darn, now I am really in trouble. Stupid english, lol.
Will have to be really creative about this one.

2:37 am

Jellen

Hi, FMitch!

2:37 am

FMitch

stidmama

Jellen, I have to go now... need to be up in 6 hours or so. But I will be thinking of you and Tim. Take care of yourself, please, and give him my best when you see him. I am going to remain optimistic.

2:42 am

westford

2:45 am

jillibus

sprite, I have Lickety's fireworks history up in my taskbar but the latest post was Feburary 15 --

2:45 am

Jellen

Thanks, sprite. I have a tendency to awful-ize when lacking solid evidence to the contrary...

2:46 am

jillibus

bye FM -- have a good day

2:46 am

sprite

same here. He doesn't update regularly.

2:46 am

Jellen

Bye, FM

2:47 am

2:47 am

jillibus

now I must hie me to bed...

2:48 am

Jellen

Good night, jilli!

2:48 am

jillibus

but if anyone needs clues I can supply some

2:48 am

sprite

who wouldn't, Jellen. It is awful and makes you worry. Just try and remember it can be treated and with good results. *hugs*

2:48 am

sprite

he will get to it when he has the time and energy to spare, jilli. And it is not your browser that is faulty, lol.
Sleep well!

2:49 am

sprite

one day *hugs* will be in the grid and I will spend the whole time in the sin bin.

2:49 am

jillibus

oh I know, sprite -- he has his hands and heart full now

2:49 am

Jellen

lol, sprite

2:50 am

westford

2:50 am

sprite

yeah, not an easy time for our Lickety :(

2:50 am

westford

mrp was on last night she seems to be doing better

2:50 am

westford

does she have her children back with her yet?

2:51 am

jillibus

Lickety said she went to the job she does today for the first time

2:51 am

sprite

yes, but she didn't answer even one question I asked about her healing.

2:51 am

westford

that's very good to hear

2:51 am

westford

the job that is

2:51 am

sprite

and I asked like 4 times, I think

2:51 am

jillibus

he also said it's slow but progressing

2:52 am

westford

it will be a long haul

2:53 am

sprite

even though long is no fun, as long as it heals, it is good news.

2:54 am

jillibus

no clues needed? Then I'll say goodnight xoxoxo

2:54 am

westford

good night jilli and hugs

2:54 am

sprite

sleep well, dear lady, and pleasant dreams to you. ((((jilli))))

2:55 am

jillibus

*poof*

2:57 am

sprite

and now we are all waiting for jilli to betray herself for not really poofing...

2:57 am

westford

lol I was just thinking the same thing sprite

2:57 am

sprite

*giggles*

2:58 am

westford

sprite I have been meaning to ask if the new dog is still in your plans

2:59 am

sprite

it sure is, west! We are #1 on the list for the nest that is planned for around December. Somewhere around February/March we should be enjoying a new household member :)

2:59 am

westford

oh that is so nice to hear

3:00 am

westford

will you get a male or female or don't you care?

3:00 am

sprite

yes, we are really excited about it. And preparing.
We don't care. We are terrible that way. The breeder asked us the same thing. What sex, what colour. And we said: we want the sweetest, smartest one of the nest.

3:01 am

westford

that's the way it should be sweet and smart

3:02 am

sprite

in that order, lol. We don't want the alfa. Or the omega. Just the sweetest and smartest. :)

3:02 am

westford

I don't remember what breed sprite

3:02 am

sprite

King Charles Cavalier Spaniel

3:02 am

westford

oh beautiful

3:03 am

westford

that will be the cutest puppy

3:03 am

sprite

oh yes, they are absolutely adorable. I will be the one training the dog, I am the only one here able to withstand the spaniel look...

3:04 am

westford

those eyes you mean? lol

3:04 am

sprite

yup... those eyes that say: but I will DIE if I cannot whatever!!! Please please pleasssseeeee!

3:05 am

sprite

my kids try that look sometimes. But only with their dad, lol.

3:05 am

westford

dads generally are pushovers

3:06 am

westford

but moreso grandpas

3:06 am

sprite

we were at the breeder's and the lady told us it is hard to raise a KCC because most owners give in to THE LOOK, and my kids said in unison: not our mum.

3:06 am

westford

lol

3:07 am

Jellen

lol, sprite

3:07 am

westford

you stick to your guns then because a well trained dog is a pleasure to everyone

3:07 am

westford

however I'll bet you'll be just as bad as the rest

3:08 am

sprite

when our daughter was small, she could make her dad do anything she wanted. And I would be standing behind her, turning my little finger around in the air until he saw me... and then he would go like: "Er... No Caya, you cannot whatever." LOL.

3:09 am

sprite

no, I won't, I promise. I want a good dog, that is a pleasure to all. And we won't get one without being clear about the rules and the order of the pack. I am really preparing, and I know what to do and what not. Kids are turning out well... I think I should be able to handle a puppy. And I have you all to ask for advice :)

3:09 am

westford

we'll be here for you and we hope you'll post pictures

3:10 am

sprite

oh, I promise I will. It will be a joy to share!

3:10 am

westford

maybe the litter will be born on Christmas Day

3:11 am

sprite

quite possible, or around there somewhere

3:11 am

westford

what a nice family present

3:12 am

sprite

am looking forward to Xmas for the first time, lol

3:12 am

westford

how many in a litter usually? do you know?

3:13 am

sprite

varies hugely. From 2-3 to 5-6

3:13 am

westford

oh.good thing I'm sitting down. read that as 23 to 56 lol

3:13 am

mrpresident

evening all :)

3:14 am

sprite

whahaHAHA......

3:14 am

westford

hi mrp

3:14 am

Jellen

Hi, mrp!

3:14 am

sprite

hiya mrP:) Did your ears itch?

3:14 am

mrpresident

itchy ears?? was there gossip afoot?

3:14 am

mrpresident

hi west, jellen and sprite! :))

3:15 am

sprite

nah, we were talking about your healing up, how it would be going?

3:15 am

westford

I was wondering if you have your kids back with you

3:15 am

westford

know you missed them

3:15 am

mrpresident

oh thanks for your thoughts...

3:15 am

mrpresident

i missed them awfully! got them back within a week though, and won't let go of them!

3:16 am

westford

oh that's good

3:16 am

sprite

ah good! Great to have them with you again. And how IS the healing going?

3:16 am

mrpresident

am healing very slowly this time! but this has been a bigger op than usual

3:17 am

mrpresident

I can't explain it, but I am 'behind' in where I thought I would be. It has been 5 weeks, and obviously expect too much of myself

3:17 am

sprite

maybe the slowness means it is going to be thoroughly, mrP. That will be my wish for you.

3:18 am

westford

are the doctors satisfied with your progress?

3:18 am

sprite

5 weeks is nothing, as all doctors will have told you, lol. And don't forget you were nowhere near fit when you got the op. Be gentle and patient with yourself, hun.'

3:18 am

mrpresident

too easy to say west. the bone graft has only just started to take

3:19 am

westford

but it is taking and that's progress

3:19 am

sprite

taking sounds very good

3:19 am

mrpresident

yes sprite! you are right. I must set my sights at the same level as the docs

3:19 am

Jellen

Sending healing thoughts your way, mrp.

3:20 am

sprite

patience is the worst part of healing. Or of being ill. But it pays off, seriously. Will keep sending healing vibes, sweetie. Lots of them.

3:20 am

mrpresident

I hate the god-awful blood tests!

3:20 am

mrpresident

thanks so much girls! (((hugs)))

3:20 am

westford

gentle hugs for you too mrp

3:21 am

sprite

and if you can keep from doing too much, I think having your kids around will help the healing lots :)

3:21 am

mrpresident

I have little patience I am afraid. I want to return to work at once! I want to buy another house. I want it all yesterday.... I haven't learnt a darn thing about patience!

3:21 am

Jellen

Now I am sending myself back to bed...Thanks for all the encouraging words...

3:21 am

sprite

*giggles*
Dear God, grant me patience... AND I WANNA HAVE IT RIGHT NOW!!!

3:21 am

mrpresident

I will be punished by karma... must be patient!

3:22 am

mrpresident

nite jellen!

3:22 am

mrpresident

I am off to have my dinner... back soon!
LOL sprite! exactly!!

3:22 am

sprite

nah sweetie, you won't. Ask God to help you being more patient and remind Him he made you this impatient, so he should be helping lots now.

3:22 am

westford

good night jellen and remember to think positive thoughts

3:23 am

sprite

sleep well, Jellen. *big hug* to you and Tim, and take care. No worries if you can help it. Positive energy is coming your way.

3:23 am

sprite

*snap* west :)

3:23 am

Jellen

Thank you, thank you!

3:24 am

sprite

someone should tell the mets they are not valid. Darn.

3:25 am

westford

the NY Mets?

3:25 am

sprite

yup

3:26 am

westford

being a Red Sox fan I already know that lol

3:26 am

sprite

sorry for the random remark. It is how my brain works.

3:26 am

sprite

roflol!

3:27 am

westford

not that the Sox are doing too well at this time

3:27 am

sprite

ah, but a real fan must keep faith even in bad times. We can all hoot for the winner. Supporting them in bad times is the mark of the fan :)

3:28 am

westford

we're used to it

3:28 am

westford

they won the world series last year so there is still hope

3:28 am

sprite

lol

3:29 am

sprite

I have no idea why people here thought I would be fast with this grid. It is going nowhere at all.

3:29 am

westford

there are some strange words

3:30 am

westford

have you had your breakfast yet?

3:30 am

sprite

I am halfway and stumped. And no, no breakfast yet. Good idea.

3:30 am

sprite

did you get yoghurt and fruit and cereal? :)

3:30 am

westford

no will go today

3:30 am

sprite

lovely. I hope it will suit you.

3:31 am

westford

I know it will thanks for the suggestion

3:31 am

westford

I saw today that special K has a new version with pecans

3:32 am

sprite

will brb, am going to make breakfast now and then bring it up here :) Thanks for reminding me.

3:32 am

sprite

with pecans??? Ohhhhh

3:32 am

westford

all the words will appear magically then

3:32 am

westford

sounds good doesn't it?

3:33 am

westford

I'll say good night now I'm up too late as usual

3:47 am

sprite

night west :)

3:48 am

elder

Good morning.

3:48 am

elder

Hello Sprite :)))

3:48 am

sprite

hi elder!

3:49 am

sprite

how are you doing?

3:49 am

hydra

Morning sprite, elder, westford. We are having another glorious day today.

3:49 am

hydra

Oh, just noticed that west has gone!

3:49 am

sprite

hi hydra. It is very overcast and thunderstorm-threatening here, but it might clear up yet.

3:50 am

elder

Am fine thanks, and received your email :) How are you Sprite...?

3:50 am

elder

hello Hydra.

3:50 am

hydra

Hope it does. We've had a thunder warning too.

3:51 am

sprite

am okayish today. Hand is much better, arm a bit too. And looking forward to my friend coming over to stay. She is on her way now :)

3:51 am

elder

Sprite, have you been having any of the heavy rain and floods that have hit areas of Europe?

3:51 am

sprite

was lying awake last night and all of a sudden remembered you had asked me before where in the netherlands I lived, and that I did not answer. I am near Amsterdam.

3:52 am

sprite

heavy rains, yes. Floods not yet, thank God.

3:52 am

hydra

What have you done to yourself, sprite?

3:52 am

elder

Thats ok Sprite ::)

3:52 am

elder

If I miss you when you leave Sprite. Have a lovely, fun day with your friend.

3:54 am

sprite

if I only knew, hydra! All of a sudden had this lump in my hand and couldn't close my fingers anymore. Very painful. Now I am thinking I might have overtaxed the hand by holding a heavy book in it all day. I was lazing in the hammock. Can't go unpunished, perhaps.

3:54 am

sprite

elder, she has 3 hours travelling left. I will be here for a while :)

3:54 am

elder

Hydra, we are supposed to have storms soon, my hope is that they arrive, swiftly, clear the air and then go, leaving behind warm Non humid ! weather.

3:54 am

sprite

*seconds that wish fervently*

3:55 am

hydra

Ouch! Hope it stops hurting very soon, sprite.

3:55 am

hydra

I kept the fan on all night. It was blissful though doesn't do much for my 'green' credentials

3:55 am

sprite

it is definitely better today. Lump is pea sized now.

3:56 am

sprite

well, if nature wants us to be nice to it, it better keep the humid warmth to a minimum...

3:56 am

elder

Sprite its not punishment , rather a sign that you should lay in hammock and read more, but use alternate hands:)

3:56 am

LoriP

G'd morning Babblers! Itty bitty grid. :(

3:56 am

elder

Hydra ditto!

3:57 am

hydra

I've just bought a hammock. I shall by a reading stand now, after hearing your tale of woe, sprite. Hi Lori!

3:57 am

sprite

hiyaLori :)

3:57 am

elder

hello LoriP. yes and its a bit tricky.. how are you today?.

3:58 am

sprite

lol elder, thanks, you are right. And hydra, forewarned is forearmed, or something like that, cannot remember properly. Use alternate hands and make sure to move the hands relaxed while not holding the book... :)

3:58 am

LoriP

Good, gooder and goodest elder! How 'bout thee? :-)

3:58 am

sprite

you will LOVE lying in the hammock. It is a bliss.

3:59 am

elder

or lay in hammock, listening to tape books .

3:59 am

sprite

oh, then you can close your eyes too! Good idea :)

3:59 am

hydra

I haven't got anywhere to hang it yet! I am looking for a cheap stand on eBay. Paid £4 for the hammock at a car boot. Good idea, elder. Or some music; or just the birds. There is a very noisy yellow hammer.

3:59 am

elder

loriP, Not up to goodest and gooder, but am ok.

4:00 am

hydra

And a flock of ring-necked parakeets.

4:00 am

sprite

they take up a LOT of space, hammocks. If not, I would sleep in one. But it would never fit inside :)

4:01 am

elder

Wish i could lay in Hammock, but two things prevent this, 1 i have not a hammock and 2 i would be hospitalised with my back.

4:01 am

sprite

not sure about the last part, elder. Hammocks, if used correctly, support every inch of you just right. It is the only place I can truly relax.

4:02 am

hydra

Did I tell you about the latest job I'm doing? Helping an ex brothel keeper write her memoirs!!! She is on TV next week so we're trying to get 2 chapters completed in case any publishers are watching.

4:02 am

SaddySolar

afternoon all

4:02 am

elder

parakeets, none here but i have heard they are in flocks in some areas, due to them escaping etc..

4:02 am

sprite

remember, if you ever get to trying one: you must lie in them diagonally! Never straight.

4:02 am

elder

hello Saddy.

4:02 am

sprite

oh wonderful! Hydra, that must be so much fun!

4:02 am

sprite

hiya Saddy :)

4:03 am

hydra

It is. She's so lively and funny. I'm stuck over a di5 and 6, the second set. Any clues?

4:04 am

sprite

sorry, no idea there. I have 2 di5s and no 6s yet.

4:05 am

sprite

with the right publicity, it should become a bestseller, hydra. Woot!

4:05 am

elder

Hydra, interesting, have you learnt anything ?What is the programme ?

4:06 am

hydra

I'll come back to it later. Her name is Madam Vanessa and I think she has a madamvanessa.com website. She's also on either myspace or facebook.She said she was putting the first chapter up on her site. When I find where that is, I'll let you know.

4:06 am

sprite

please do! Would love to read it.

4:06 am

hydra

I've learned how to deliver the perfect spanking!!!

4:07 am

elder

LOL !!!!

4:07 am

sprite

yayyyyy good information :D

4:07 am

elder

So is the programme about delivering services ? !!

4:08 am

SaddySolar

lol hydra... how about a lesson

4:08 am

sprite

it will be in the book, Saddy! We will need to buy it :)

4:08 am

hydra

If you google her name, Vanessa Coleman, or Madam Vanessa, you get her My Space page. The prog is about brothels and the sex industry. Channel 4, 2nd Aug. She doesn't know whether she'll be on for 5 secs or half an hour!

4:09 am

hydra

Hi Saddy. Is that you in the photo? You are SO pretty!

4:09 am

elder

I see the word for not yet absolute, is here again.

4:09 am

SaddySolar

4:09 am

hydra

4:10 am

SaddySolar

4:10 am

sprite

4:11 am

elder

Bye Hydra ..have a good day and take umbrella just in case.

4:11 am

sprite

you are probably even more beautiful, Saddy, even though you might feel like a whale on the beach...

4:11 am

hydra

But your face is, Saddy! How far along are you? (Haven't quite left to start wprk yet)

4:12 am

elder

saddy, a Pretty face remains throughout pregnancy.:)

4:12 am

hydra

Anyway, pregnant bodies are very beautiful. I revelled in my bodyshape when I was pregnant. I was so proud of it.

4:12 am

SaddySolar

FMitch

Oh I thought you meant the 1st on the list, doh

5:40 am

Eva

that's still from the wrong d FM-I just cant see any words that can be made from the other d.

5:41 am

FMitch

um that will be the sex toy then that you are looking for *blush*

5:41 am

ty for that one eva:)

They took me forever to find

5:43 am

herinfernallady

THanks and how teh heck did i miss that

5:44 am

Eva

we're just too pure to see such things (-:

5:44 am

FMitch

Of course *giggle*. Hows Merp btw?

5:44 am

herinfernallady

No im sure my mind is in the sewer plant

5:45 am

Eva

Merp is great except that he woke me up at 4:30 am by walking across my legs. Not appreciated! He's convinced that there are cat monsters living in the floor heating vent and thus has to take massive leaps to avoid them and get to the bed.

5:46 am

herinfernallady

Snicker Eva. Big wuss

5:46 am

FMitch

Oh how funny, good to hear he is still bouncing about. All well with you too?

5:47 am

crosshair

our one cat will sit on my chest and start kneading me,and if i dont get up,then she will lick my eyes

5:47 am

FMitch

Should have asked about you first and Merp second, the heat is beginning to addle my brain already

5:47 am

herinfernallady

ewww Cross

5:48 am

Eva

Yes except that I'm in the city now (Boston) for the week, and it's hard to be away from my gardens and not know whether, when I come back, I will have a garden or simply the paltry leftovers the deers have decided weren't good enough to chow down on.

5:48 am

crosshair

a cat tongue is quite rough on the eyes first thing in the morning

5:49 am

FMitch

Hi cross, cats just know how to manipulate their 'owners'.
Fingers crossed then Eva :)

5:49 am

Eva

Eye licking is a good one! Smart cat. Merp is definitely OCD. So far the heat vent and brooms are his arch nemeses.

5:49 am

Eva

How are you doing FMitch?

5:49 am

crosshair

does it again and ill set my beard trimmer on 2 and give it a reverse mohawk:)

5:51 am

Eva

Now Merp has settled in for a nice long snooze before breakfast, but can I go back to sleep? Nooooo.

5:51 am

crosshair

should of know by the cats name when we resscued it from the pound "abracadabra" or abby for short

5:51 am

Am well Eva, very busy for the 1st 5 months of the year , quiet for 2 and now business is picking up again.

5:51 am

Later Cross

5:54 am

FMitch

Mi4 you already cross *grin* Have a good day.

5:55 am

Things are very, very slow here in the states, in almost every area, for obvious reasons. Start ups are hanging on by the skins of their teeth.

5:55 am

crosshair

poof

5:56 am

FMitch

Yup we are really feeling it over here too but I am happy to turm my hand to anything, so have been writing/preping presentations and secetarial stuff too.

5:58 am

Eva

flexibility is really the name of the game in every way-economically, mentally, emotionally. As long as we are able to keep learning and changing and not get stuck in how things were or should be, things are relatively okay. Tall order for us humans though.

5:59 am

FMitch

Talking of work I had better say Bye, good to catch up again Eva.

5:59 am

Eva

Please, all of you living outside of the US, keep your fingers crossed for us in the upcoming elections, or you may be welcoming a lot of us to your shores. Enough ie enough already!

I can't think of anyone that far from reality as McCain. His wife travels with a personal stylist and the other night he stuttered that he wouldn't speak O.S like Obama while as a Senator. He stuttered it like he was thinking about what he was doing

6:20 am

Congrats Carlee--I see that you just finished.

7:19 am

Jandel

7:19 am

Scrabbler

Uh, oh, what is this di5? *searching*

7:20 am

Scrabbler

Yikes, I found 'em.

7:20 am

Scrabbler

TY, Jandel.

7:21 am

Jandel

sometimes you think...never be a word...

7:22 am

Scrabbler

It's a real word.

7:22 am

Jandel

make me laugh

7:23 am

Scrabbler

One grid, several months ago, had several anatomical words.

7:23 am

Jandel

i remember it vaguely

7:24 am

Scrabbler

How is your summer going?

7:24 am

Jandel

I can't believe July is almost finished

7:25 am

Scrabbler

Yes, it is always sad when summer flies by and I have hardly done a thing on my to-do list---home/yard maintenance stuff.

7:25 am

Scrabbler

...because I am having fun instead!

7:26 am

Jandel

That's the best excuse!

7:26 am

Scrabbler

Yes, so the garage can be cleaned out next summer, right?

7:26 am

Jandel

life its too short to pass up fun for yard work

7:26 am

Scrabbler

Yep, yep!

7:27 am

Scrabbler

I agree!

7:27 am

Jandel

the fall is a great time to clean out garages...too hot in summer : )

7:27 am

Scrabbler

That is a plan.

7:28 am

Jandel

OR marry an OCD and never have to worry

7:28 am

Scrabbler

I passed halfway already--easy so far but I will need the list soon.

7:29 am

Scrabbler

And that is another plan, haha.

7:29 am

Jandel

i just went to the list. do you have babble expert? i love it

7:30 am

Scrabbler

I have it and love it--simplifies everything!

7:30 am

Jandel

it has made me so much better. getting so many more words without it

7:32 am

Scrabbler

Do you have the 2nd di5/14?

7:32 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

7:33 am

Scrabbler

Jandel

7:33 am

Scrabbler

Ah, TY--Old English.

7:34 am

Scrabbler

How about the last di5?

7:35 am

Scrabbler

NM--I found it.

7:35 am

Scrabbler

The Periwinkle Phenomenon works again.

7:35 am

MonkeyGames

Hi again folks! Just tried to say that a little while ago, as far as I know my essage did not appear, tried refreshing and could no longer access Babble, rebooted an dhere I am. Sheesh.

7:36 am

Scrabbler

How is Walter today, MG?

7:36 am

periwinkle

:-) Good Morning All

7:36 am

EvaNadine

how is everyone today?

7:36 am

Scrabbler

And Periwinkle appears when I mention her name! Wow!

7:36 am

periwinkle

just started Scrabs and I see my name in the chat

7:36 am

Scrabbler

I awoke with a migraine...waiting for naproxen and caffeine to take effect.

7:37 am

montreal13

"Have tea, will babble" - hi all !

7:37 am

periwinkle

hi Luc

7:37 am

Scrabbler

Hi Luc

7:37 am

MonkeyGames

About the same except we've been to the doctor. She said that it's not full-blown sinusitis but that the backup from teh stuffy nose is putting pressure on his eardrums and facial nerves (no outright ear infection though). She gave me some xylometazole spray to use, said that should clear it up and otherwise in a week we might have to think about antibiotics. But she expects this'll work.

7:38 am

montreal13

hi peri, scrabs et al !

7:38 am

MonkeyGames

Oh ouch, Scrabbs! My husband gets migraines. My sympathies!

7:38 am

Scrabbler

Xylometazole--I will look that up--I think that is similar to other antihistamine sprays we use here in the US.

7:39 am

MonkeyGames

It's a decongestant. Lemme see if I can find a US trade name for it...

7:40 am

Scrabbler

I see that it is a nasal decongestant spray. Those are very effective but should not be used for more than 4-5 days.

7:41 am

MonkeyGames

They told me one week at the longest... also at the pharmacy. Well, here's hoping we only need it for a couple of days!

7:41 am

EvaNadine

hints for the lower D words?

7:42 am

periwinkle

brb

7:42 am

montreal13

both lower D words refer to a sexual toy

7:42 am

montreal13

just found them...

7:44 am

Scrabbler

MG--there is a potential for "rebound swelling" if used too long, that is the caution, but they work well.

7:46 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, I read up on it some before giving it to him and saw that. Well, he usually responds well to symptom relief, as in that lets his body deal with the illness, so I expect we won't need to be worried about using it longer than 5 days... knock on wood...

7:47 am

Scrabbler

It will help, MG--to allow mucous room to drain down.

7:47 am

montreal13

hey MG, Walter's infection site is in the grid !

7:47 am

MonkeyGames

Good. Thanks. I'm so tored of being concerned about him; this has been an unusual course for one of his colds.

7:47 am

MonkeyGames

Hey cool, so it is!

7:48 am

Scrabbler

I just found si5 too and gasped in horror--did I use the word in the chat? If Hazel is here (Chief of Babble Police) I will be sent pronto to the PB.

7:48 am

periwinkle

help with U words please

7:48 am

Scrabbler

7:48 am

Scrabbler

7:58 am

montreal13

7:58 am

Scrabbler

I get more in the summer with weather as the trigger--dropping barometric pressure from rains/thunderstorms.

7:59 am

montreal13

Scrabbler

8:02 am

Scrabbler

8:03 am

EvaNadine

EM4/8 is plural of the name of the band that sang "Unbelievable" back in the day :)

8:03 am

Scrabbler

I never knew that, Eva.

8:04 am

montreal13

8:05 am

Anniebrook

hello everyone!

8:05 am

EvaNadine

montreal -- actually, thats a word for a flirtation girl. its only the animal when it ends in a K ;)

8:05 am

montreal13

bonjour Annie !

8:05 am

Scrabbler

I found that too--with the point total.

8:05 am

Mom

Good morning Annie {{}}

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Hi Annie of Brooklyn

8:05 am

MonkeyGames

Say Scrabbs, can post nasal drip cause a really persistent sore throat?

8:06 am

fuquayvarina

still not getting em 4,8

8:06 am

Scrabbler

Yes, MG--mouth-breathing, drip and cough.

8:06 am

montreal13

oh OK Eva - my mistake - thanks !

8:06 am

EvaNadine

fuquayvarina -- go diagnolly up to the right from the E

8:06 am

montreal13

use the the 4-point tile fuquay...

8:06 am

MonkeyGames

Gotcha. So there's no reason to assume he's not on th emend just because his throat still hurts. There's a lot in there he needs to get rid of...

8:07 am

Anniebrook

em---em and "if at *ir*t you dont succeed....etc

8:07 am

EvaNadine

montreal -- whenever i think of those 2 words getting confused, i think of American Idol when ryan seacrest called kelley pickler a Mi4/10 + she thought he was calling her an animal....heh

8:07 am

Scrabbler

Yes, and without a cough or continuing fever he sounds OK to me.

8:08 am

MonkeyGames

Great! He's getting a tad stir-crazy, so it'll be good for him to get back to daycare and see his friends.

8:08 am

Scrabbler

All done--my last word was one I thought would never be a word and I got fireworks.

8:08 am

MonkeyGames

Yay!!!!

8:08 am

just learned that the last di5,14 is an early form of the 10-cent piece -- huh! who knew?

8:38 am

pugmama763

hi babble clan!

8:38 am

Anniebrook

hi pug!

8:39 am

pugmama763

nasty little grid eh?

8:40 am

Anniebrook

not too bad..

8:41 am

Pinikula

first time player here...why isn't "nots" a good word (i.e., "haves and have nots"?

8:41 am

pugmama763

most of it wasn't too bad but the DI's are melting my brain

8:41 am

EvaNadine

welp, just scheduled a cleaning service to come through the house i rent out this coming friday.
man, thats not cheap!

8:42 am

pugmama763

many of us gave up long ago tring to figure out the quirks of enable dictionary Pinik

8:43 am

pugmama763

ooops trying even

8:43 am

Pinikula

no worries...I'm fluent in "typonese"

8:43 am

Anniebrook

fireworks!

8:44 am

pugmama763

yahooooo aniie!!!!

8:44 am

Pinikula

so, what are the hints you're giving each other (i.e., di5, fu5, etc.)?

8:44 am

Vicuna

Enable is indeed arbitrary, but it takes "haves," so I'm guessing it thinks "have-nots" is one word or something.

8:44 am

Pinikula

ahhh

8:44 am

Anniebrook

I never argue with Enable...I always lose

8:45 am

pugmama763

di is first 2 letter- 5 is # of letters

8:45 am

Anniebrook

Hi Vicuna

8:45 am

pugmama763

the 2nd # would be point value

8:46 am

Pinikula

ok

8:46 am

Anniebrook

di 5/14 would be di, first 2 letter, 5 is the # of letters in the word and 14 is the point value of the word

8:47 am

Anniebrook

*letters

8:49 am

pugmama763

speaking of DI"s.....any clues would be appreciated !!! only have first pair & last one!(5 of my 9 remaining words are DI!)

8:50 am

Anniebrook

pug....di 5.14 is a sexual plaything and plural

8:51 am

Anniebrook

di 4/5 is to speak disrespectfully (slang)

8:51 am

pugmama763

OMG!!!! TY ANNIE!

8:52 am

pugmama763

have the 4/5

8:52 am

pugmama763

need 2nd & 4th 5/14's

8:52 am

Anniebrook

Yep, that word always surprises me...don't know why because they get very graphic in babbleland's dictionary

8:52 am

pugmama763

and 2nd 6/24 please?

8:53 am

Anniebrook

di -----di + cons + don't ***s with me or else

8:54 am

pugmama763

ty annie

8:54 am

Anniebrook

2nd di is di and did you take your ***e of medicine?

8:55 am

pugmama763

have that one hon need one before the sex toy

8:56 am

Anniebrook

take the plural letter off the di 6/24 after it

8:56 am

pugmama763

did that automatically

8:56 am

Anniebrook

really mean take the plural letter off the di 6/24 before it

8:56 am

Anniebrook

di 5/14 ----done biblically speaking

8:57 am

Anniebrook

should have put a comma after done

8:57 am

pugmama763

AHA !!!! TY dear!

8:57 am

Anniebrook

That should be the di's

8:58 am

pugmama763

that was the ticket

Google Randy Pausch for whose who do not know who he is.

10:25 am

Haz1558

It would actually be a good name for some real-life Lotharios (think Jack Nicholson or Peter Stringfellow)

10:25 am

Aussieme

Ah, there it is !! It was hiding in thr refresh corner !

10:25 am

Judi

Hey, Harpjane - I can't remember. What happened to Scully's baby (William)?

10:27 am

friday is when I turn into a US person rather than a UK person

10:28 am

periwinkle

10:28 am

Aussieme

Ah, I see.... Are you becoming a US Citizen ?

10:28 am

Atalante

10:31 am

Aussieme

fr7... I am looking for it !

10:31 am

Vicuna

fr7 - means a shiver or thrill, French derivation

10:32 am

JBV

thanks, aussie, your question gave me the fr 7

10:32 am

Atalante

FMitch

10:33 am

Vicuna

I hope she doesn't spoil you too badly, though.

10:33 am

JBV

and fi 4/8 - looks like a fruit with a different consonant

10:34 am

Atalante

why is fi** a common dog name? anyone know?

10:34 am

JBV

think it comes from latin - faithful

10:34 am

Vicuna

Because dogs are supposed to be faithful.

12:49 pm

Vicuna

Bye, cybernan!

12:49 pm

Atalante

oooooooo!

12:50 pm

Atalante

show? where what why?

12:51 pm

Vicuna

Library near here has a display space and shows a different artist each month. I have August. The show's theme is illustrations of stories and the nursery rhymes and such.

12:51 pm

Atalante

oh wonderful!

12:52 pm

Vicuna

Hence getting the infamous Turnip finished! =)

12:53 pm

Vicuna

Should be good exposure or publicity or whatever, since it's a very nice, public space.

12:53 pm

Atalante

definitely!

12:53 pm

Atalante

that's fab

12:55 pm

Vicuna

... But I have no idea whether it will generate any actual sales, of course!

12:55 pm

Atalante

it certainly can't hurt!

12:57 pm

Vicuna

Nope! And since there are no on-the-spot sales anyway, I can get away with hanging some of the stuff that's hanging in our house already framed, so I don't have to buy another frame unless I actually get a sale.

12:57 pm

Atalante

even better :D

12:58 pm

Vicuna

The kids' playroom will be denuded for the month of August! lol

12:59 pm

Atalante

they'll have to create some new art

12:59 pm

Vicuna

So, what prep do you still have? Packaging must be brutal to get stuff to travel safely.

12:59 pm

BettyAnne

1:01 pm

Vicuna

Are you bringing framed stuff?

1:01 pm

Atalante

nope, glass is too dangerous to hoick over the atlantic!!

1:02 pm

Vicuna

I thought it would be quite a feat! Do you have stuff in those clear plastic sleeves then?

1:03 pm

Atalante

yep :) and I'm going to buy new sleeves for all the prints over in Oregon (much cheaper than buying the stuff over here)

1:04 pm

Vicuna

That's handy.

1:04 pm

Vicuna

Where in Oregon do you stay?

1:04 pm

Atalante

Astoris

1:04 pm

Atalante

2:52 pm

brid

mi 6/24-- rhymes with a ki6 word (not in the puzzle) for fate. And, while i can't find a definition, i think it would mean the bad fate of having ended up with the wrong partner.

I think the fact that pea soup has been ruined for me by all the movies that use it to represent vomit, that mushy peas probably are equally ruined already

4:38 pm

4:38 pm

6:52 pm

icepyro

*wanders back to doing actual work* bbiab

6:53 pm

marisun37

um i wouldnt call it a ghost town. My idea is that since the school system has been having some trouble, the poor housing market and the fact that the demographics are changing because of ATL rebuilding the downtown area, this suburb is suffering because of the transient families that are renting and purchasing. well the benadryl is kicking in, I better take a nap. i will probably join you all again after the puzzle flips.
