moplet . . . very small cleaning product for refreshing your kitchen floor

6:34 am

sprite

6:35 am

Uneaixoise

:-D

6:38 am

sprite

funny... there is an oldfashioned dutch word in the grid today: aalmoes. It means a handout to the poor.

6:38 am

uusue2

soop, soop, beeyouteefull soop...

6:39 am

sprite

6:46 am

sprite

hi car.ee

6:46 am

car.eeyore

Just about to go out for the bus, but I had to take a peek....

6:46 am

Trifioso

good morning friends. i am so vexed right now - something is way wrong with my keyboard and it keeps doing crazy things, so please excuse any weird stuff that may happen

6:46 am

Trifioso

good morning friends. i am so vexed right now - something is way wrong with my keyboard and it keeps doing crazy things, so please excuse any weird stuff that may happen

6:47 am

Trifioso

like that, apparently. sigh

6:47 am

sprite

it is kind of snarky for an average-sized grid

6:47 am

sprite

lolllllll!
Hi dear Triffles, glad to see you.

6:47 am

car.eeyore

LOL! Poor you.

6:48 am

sprite

.... can't find any word with the 'not in' prefix...

6:49 am

car.eeyore

NBT...be right back....

6:49 am

Trifioso

why does enable take pees, but not poos? seems elitist and wrong

6:49 am

sprite

grtz

6:50 am

MollyL

That is because there aren't any Sprite. : )

6:50 am

Trifioso

gotta run to zoo?

6:50 am

sprite

*shakes grid to make 'poop'.

6:50 am

sprite

hi Molly, that's what I was afraid of! I ha4 to see a good prefix wasted.

6:51 am

MollyL

I'll take grtz over hagd. hagd sounds like a wet sneeze.

6:51 am

sprite

lol yeah, I see your point.

6:52 am

MollyL

I don't care for abbreviations of any sort really. It amazes me how lazy people have gotten about typing out full words.

6:52 am

Trifioso

i dont know what that means....grtz?

6:53 am

sprite

congratulations

6:53 am

sprite

I don't mind being called lazy

6:54 am

Trifioso

i think i will stick with gotta run to zoo. more fun...

6:55 am

sprite

Trif, dear one, I will run with you to any zoo if you want to :D

6:55 am

Trifioso

yay!

6:55 am

smooze

P

6:56 am

car.eeyore

And I'm back!

6:56 am

sprite

wb car.ee

6:56 am

Trifioso

hello back

6:56 am

sprite

hi smooze, p to you too!

6:56 am

sprite

lol

6:57 am

Trifioso

btw, car,did you notice sue's correction to secondos photo album? i rolled on the floor laughing for about five minutes

6:58 am

MollyL

I have no clue what grtz means. Sprite typed it.

6:58 am

car.eeyore

No! What does it say!

6:58 am

car.eeyore

And were they standing in the doorway of Fi's room?

6:59 am

Trifioso

she had posted a picture of the little houses on the beach, with the caption "the shallows" and sue corrected it to "um....chalets". I ROLLED - guess that accent is proving more tricky than she figured!

6:59 am

Trifioso

and I don't know whose room that is

6:59 am

sprite

as I said, it means gratz or congratulations, and it was for car.ee. Anyway, go right ahead nagging, I will continue not to care.

6:59 am

car.eeyore

Oh my goodness! Too funny!

6:59 am

car.eeyore

Well the room is a mess! I think it is secundo's!

7:00 am

sprite

lol Trif! Great!

7:00 am

car.eeyore

{getting our saucers of milk for Molly and Sprite...}

7:00 am

sprite

nah... if it makes Molly happy to call me lazy, let her :P

7:01 am

Trifioso

(chuckling, noting that sprite is proudly too lazy to care if someone calls her lazy - awesome!)

7:01 am

MollyL

Okay folks, didn't mean to nag or call anyone anything. I was just making a statement that appears to be unwelcome. Y'all have a nice day.

7:01 am

car.eeyore

PO 4/6 always reminds me of carlee!

7:02 am

car.eeyore

Molly...don't go!

7:02 am

sprite

:D I think being lazy is a good way to be efficient.

7:02 am

sprite

toodles, Molly (note: no abbrev!)

7:03 am

Trifioso

molly, it's fine!!! we always te5 each other in he4

7:04 am

sprite

oh and using te5 and he4 is not laziness, that is consideration.

7:05 am

Trifioso

car - secondo can't skype right now, because she has gone sailing!!! she is living the LIFE!

7:05 am

sprite

or does one say: being considerate?

7:05 am

Trifioso

one says trifioso is trying to avoid the PB

7:06 am

Trifioso

and I think either is fine, sprite, but "being considerate" is probably the more common usage

7:06 am

sprite

*giggle* Very good.
How wonderful, btw, that your kid is doing this. She will learn so much from her journey.

7:06 am

sprite

thanks, Trif :)

I guess since I've never heard of te9 before, mine are short and I am old. : P

8:43 am

sprite

back again... hi ruby, amelu, crossy and all I have missed while afk

8:44 am

crosshair

howdy sprite:))

8:44 am

sprite

bye uusue, have a good one

8:44 am

rubyfoo

I am short and old, but don't know the te9's

8:44 am

sprite

crossy :) *hugs* How are you and Elegance today?

8:44 am

crosshair

thought my chat was broken for a sec there:)

8:44 am

rubyfoo

maybe forgot them lol?

8:45 am

rubyfoo

8:45 am

crosshair

doing fine sprite,but the mrs has a bit of a migraine going

8:45 am

rubyfoo

{{sprite}} glad to see you in here

8:45 am

crosshair

((ruby))

8:45 am

rubyfoo

what is afk?

8:45 am

sprite

aw poor mrs crossy :(
Gently rub her feet, that may bring some relief.

8:45 am

crosshair

away from keyboard

8:45 am

sprite

away from keyboard, ruby

8:46 am

rubyfoo

aaah, I was thinking of all sorts of bad things....

8:46 am

crosshair

hehe,i would but her feet are too ticklish,maybe a nice neck rub

8:46 am

sprite

hehehe nothing bad, ruby, my daughter needed me

8:46 am

rubyfoo

how is she doing?

8:47 am

rubyfoo

phantom: omelet

8:47 am

sprite

she is doing a bit better, thank God. She goes to school for a couple of hours a day now and it agrees with her!

8:47 am

sprite

that was my phantom too

8:48 am

crosshair

what is amiss with your daughter sprite?

8:49 am

sprite

nooooo not a neck rub. With migraine, the head area is overly sensitive to touch. Bringing the energy down might be good. A gentle rub over the lower back maybe?

8:49 am

crosshair

perhaps that may help

8:49 am

sprite

she has been pretty ill. First mono and later a hidden pneumonia. She has been exhausted since November. But things are looking up now.

8:52 am

rubyfoo

can't find the 9 monkeys are lying on the floor, exhausted

8:52 am

sprite

crossy: just holding her feet in your hand while she is lying down might work fine.

8:55 am

aebmusica

8:55 am

sprite

it is not easy to clue, ruby, let me think

8:56 am

rubyfoo
