4:57 am
Flask1

extra to lickety!
4:59 am
Sally-catlover

Oh, well I haven't listed yet so sorry, but will look out for it :-)
4:59 am

Lickety says 288 and babble says 288 so I would blame enable :)
5:01 am
Sally-catlover

Good morning FM. This is a lovely grid isn't it. So many words, I don't know where to look next.
5:02 am

Hi there Sally! HAven't started it yet and trying to be disciplined and get work stuff done first ... famous last words.

bad bad Sally.
5:06 am

It is a lovely sunny day here too, is it with you?
5:07 am
Sally-catlover

Fairly bright, but still incredibly wet underfoot.
5:08 am
Sally-catlover

I want to do something outside which means running a long extension lead, and I just don't fancy it over such wet ground.
5:08 am
FMitch

ditto re the wet - it poured down all day yesterday.
5:10 am
FMitch

Oh what are you wanting to do?
5:12 am
Sally-catlover

You may regret asking :-) I clean out the overnight poo from the hen house every day, but about once a month I strip it out completely and spray it. At this time of year it doesn't dry well, so I planned to take a hair dryer over. I also steam clean it when I can, so need electricity for that too. TMI!
5:13 am
FMitch

LOL funnily enough I did wonder if it was something to do with the chooks.
5:14 am
Sally-catlover

I do more housework over there than here, I can tell you. Mind you, we don't usually poo all over the floor :-))
5:14 am
FMitch

I now also have an image of you using the hair dryer to fluff up the chickens.
5:15 am
Sally-catlover

LoL, no I dry the house, not the chooks!
5:15 am
Sally-catlover

Actually, I have heard of people using a hair dryer on them, when they show them.
5:17 am
FMitch

*grin* - and on that interesting point I must be off for a while. Enjoy the grid.

please remember those who have fallen. tThey left angels here on earth. Chris is part of our family and he is the NJ officer we lost a month ago. Kelly was his fiancee. Today must be just horrible for her. Please pray for her and all the others.
7:28 am
JBV

thanks for the reminder, sue - I'm here in NJ and I know this story very well. I am buying myself a dozen roses today (my first valentine's day without my husband) and I will buy an extra one for Kelly...
7:29 am
suefrad625

Then I will be praying for others to find the love you had with your husband
7:29 am
MollyL

Way to go JBV! Now THAT is taking good care of yourself.
7:29 am
JBV

thanks, sue - I have 33 years of wonderful memories
7:30 am

I decided I did not want to be sad all day so the flowers will brighten things up around here....
7:30 am

I asked my fiancee for a rose bush. I choose life.
7:30 am

Good decision JBV.
7:30 am

I pray everyday i will have 33 years with my man
7:32 am

another good idea - when the snow starts melting around here, I will definitely think about that
7:32 am
suefrad625

you are very cherished by God to have been granted that kind of time
7:33 am
JBV

my husband designed a little garden with a birdbath and fountain and I will put something in there especially for him

Ahh, but JBV, put it in for YOU, as he has an amazing garden now.
7:34 am
JBV

ok, sue, will do :)
7:35 am
JBV

I just realized something weird - my mother and father had been married exactly 33 years, too, when he died
7:35 am

Stick another consonant in the 9
7:44 am
JBV

ok, good, thanks Peri
7:44 am

7:44 am

7:44 am

7:44 am

gratz uusue
7:47 am
periwinkle

well, that 10 is a made up word if I ever saw one, with that stupid extra consonant stuck in there
7:47 am
MollyL

The weird thing is, the root words that the two te 9's and the te 10 are based, are not accepted.
7:48 am
sprite

I tried the same thing, Molly
7:48 am
periwinkle

nbt and nbs
7:48 am
sprite

gratz periwinkle
7:48 am
uusue2

do the root words even exist in the puzzle?
7:49 am
trentsnana

I think they end in a "y"
7:49 am
uusue2

(I would end them with the sometimes vowel)
7:49 am
trentsnana

and they aren't in the grid
7:49 am
sprite

only in one spelling, not in the other one. Perhaps the other one would have been valid.
7:50 am

anyway, I had better shower, breakfast, and get on with my day - giving exams in 3 classes today!

I looked up the 9 and 10 and they are kind of related to the itsy bitsy part.
Ah yes, true, Riverdance... but who cares.
8:01 am
Riverdance

this is true......
8:01 am

I guess the extra T is to emphasize how very very tiny something is.

adding sugar to champagne is sinful

10:38 am
FMitch

suger cube soaked in brandy at the bottom of the glass and then top up with bubbles.
10:38 am

PS if yo put sugar-cube in champagne - for kids - it takes out a lot of the CO2 so less fizzy less inebriating. My parents used to water down wine for me.

The cube speeds up the rate of giving off bubbles so swirling it round before handing to junior cuts the CO2.

but i get the added joy of telling myself how stupid i was to give up a job without another one in hand.

yes, very sad, always

jan

He had a good excuse this year--he was quite sick awaiting heart surgery, so I did the Christmas shopping for the both of us. (Though I may do it next year too--so much easier to get what you really need...)

but i was so happy when you got rehired!

Hang in there jmc. The legal job market is starting ot look up a bit, at least for those with expereince. (Not so good for those just graduating from school, though.)
11:41 am

no,i did not,but i have seen it done....not a pretty sight
11:42 am

howdy jmc
11:43 am
jan

Even better, crossy, is when you get your partner something that is really for you. It's referred to as a "baseball mitt" gift.
11:43 am
Aloyisius

whew, glad to hear, crossy
11:43 am
jmcnrick

i would have been surprised to find out you were that dumb crossy
11:43 am

ahh like a fly fishing rod for my darling lool
11:43 am

Yup, or like a meat thermometer would be for my husband!
11:44 am

okay i must go read some legal stuff and pretend i still care about the job at hand
11:44 am

I remember one christmas many years ago when my brother and i bought each other the same book - that was pretty awesome :-)
11:44 am
crosshair

nope she got 2 lovely cowl neck sweaters,some "poison" perfume and a night put at las scandinav spa for a full massage,facial and pedicure
11:45 am
uusue2

sounds wonderful, crossy!
11:45 am
Aloyisius

now we're talkin, crossy.. excellent choices!
11:45 am
jan

These days we're trying to give experiences rather than stuff for gifts. Two years ago I have my husband theater tickets and he gave me a guidebook and pland tickets to San Francisco for a long weekend. No worries about getting the fit or color right.
11:46 am
crosshair

very nice jan;)
11:46 am
Aloyisius

h'mm, I could give hubby a coupon book for ten opportunities to do dishes
11:46 am
jan

Sioze can be a landmine all by itself. Guess too small and you remind the recipient that s/he is not the same size as in the past. Guess too big and get clobbered.
11:47 am
crosshair

i know my wifes size down to the millimetre:)
11:47 am
Aloyisius

what a guy
11:48 am
uusue2

Really nice ideas, jan! I've read that people get more long-lasting enjoyment from experiences than from things, anyway (and it makes sense to me)
11:48 am
uusue2

oops - I will scuttle off to the PB now - any chocolates there?
11:49 am
crosshair

actually it is more of preperation,i steal a pair of her jeans,a dress and a top and get all the sizes marked down and return them before she knows
11:49 am
Aloyisius

one year we escaped Christmas.. took our kids on a cruise instead.. asked them later, well, would you make the same choice again? And they replied.. where do we go next?
11:50 am
hurshy

my sister's in-laws give the grandkids scads of christmas presents AND take the family on cruises. *jealous me*
11:52 am
Aloyisius

moola wise, we had to choose.. and it was SO great.. no sign of all the commercial hub bub on the islands we visited.. the kids learned a lot!
11:52 am
hurshy

i'm so impressed with myself for having found 40 of the 41 S's in the middle all by myself :)

11:55 am

11:55 am
uusue2

ok, off to administer today's 3rd test, then the grading begins. 160 of one and 200 of the other. sigh...
11:55 am
jan

That's where I'm stalled too. 11 out of 16.
11:56 am
uusue2

(each course has 2 sections, so total enrollment is 160 in one course and 200 in the other) (brain is already dead...)
11:56 am

1:00 pm
ch1212

My nickname (not happy about it either) in high school was dolly. Then a miracle happened --- I had a baby, breast-fed, and when I stopped, I had lost several inches and cup sizes! People actually asked if I had reduction surgery, and this was back in 1976!
1:01 pm
bethn

the only up? side is because they appeared so late, they are relatively perky if something so big can be called perky ;(
1:02 pm
ch1212

I was delighted, and did not learn until later that for most women, breast feeding makes them even bigger.

Bethn, if they are perky, then ... you go girl! :)

Hi again. Intersting topic! ;-)

LOL -- gladly, Kaplan. Yes, let's do. Anyone see Lady Gaga incubating and dilating last night? I am quoting the terms used on tv.
1:03 pm

ch, I don't have the answer to this question; but I've always wondered why some women losse cup sizes when they br**** feed and others don't?

Hi there, uusue2.
3:15 pm
stidmama

:-D Thanks Peach. Just reflecting how frustrating it is that my office turned into a storage room which means that all the materials I have actually stored in there are either blocked or moved (so hidden); rendering any time spent looking for things I know I have fruitless, and making it expensive to keep purchasing things I know I have... and no time to change things until summer.
3:15 pm

I was trying on one of those stretchy garments, i.e. spanx, but another name. OMG what a struggle. anyone who know me know that I am tall and thin but after looking at the garments I chose a Med. camisole. I managed to get it on but was stuck in it for a while and alsmot had to call a sales clerk to get me out of it. I managed by msyelf :)

I Large size was almost as difficult so I gave up. The sizes need to be adjusted. the med. said for those who wear 8-10 but it did not work
3:18 pm

*giggles at Peri* Kind of like putting your head through the sleeve instead of the turtleneck. *Snort* Sorry.
3:18 pm

lol, peri but those things are never the size they say!

Bless your heart, peri, that had to be awful!
3:18 pm

you sure you were looking in the ladies section peri??? I wear a small to medium in most things (and I am NOT thin)
3:18 pm

Nice to know, peri :-) I am nowhere near large, even (bigger than that) so I will stay away from those!!! lol!!!

I think Spanx and such are supposed to MAKE you a size smaller. I've never even attempted. Knowing my luck, I'd throw my back out again.

Maybe the spanx brand would be better to try even tho more expensive. I am not happy about the rolll that has taken up residence around my mid section. and it is not a california roll :)

then don't worry...just keep talking about it. She'll listen...
6:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Help her talk about her goals for herself and what she wants her life to be, and the things she needs to have her goals happen. For instance, she wants to be a dancer, or a professor or an athlete. Then you talk about all the things that she needs to get there. And how some things (like getting pregnant) would derail her. Try to keep it in the positive- how she wants her future to be,
6:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Goals and values. Talk with her -in her language- about what her values are.
6:06 pm
lilliann

she has changed her mind so many times over the last few months kap about what she wants to do with her life as all 11 year olds do so i don't know what it will be next week!

6:07 pm
lilliann

the schools are already putting alot of pressure on the bairns with their tests,and grades!!
6:07 pm
Kaplan the Magne

It's not specifically what she is going to be- it's more about values- does she have an idea of being someone who travels a lot, or helps people, or whatever- it doesn't matter if she is fantasizing- it's more to get her to think constructively about her potential
6:08 pm
