3:29 am

Glantarell

morning hydra

3:30 am

hydra

Morning Glan. Hope you weren't flooded overnight, Our roof leaked.

3:31 am

hydra

Ah! Found the other pi 9, connected to the other two words.

3:31 am

Glantarell

the drive home was unexectedly hairy - low slung car and invisible flooding is not a good combination :- and the street outside my house was like a river, but I survived it all without incident. sorry to hear your roof leaked.

3:32 am

Glantarell

*looking for pi combinations*

3:32 am

hydra

You were very lucky, Glan. I had placed a bucket where it was likely to leak, but suddenly remembered all the computer cables and had to dash up at midnight and switch them all off.

3:32 am

hydra

For the pi's, think what women used to wear to do the dusting.

3:33 am

Glantarell

oh, ty ty

3:33 am

3:33 am

hydra

You're welcome

3:34 am

hydra

Must start work now. Still haven't finished book.

Glantarell

definitely must finish book

3:35 am

hydra

Trouble is, I thought I'd finished, then realised some loose ends hadn't been tied up so I started an extra chapter!

3:35 am

Glantarell

i think all creativelty involves those sorts of moments :-)

3:36 am

hydra

It's darned annoying!

3:37 am

hydra

I have bought myself a pen that lights up at night, so I no longer have to put on the light when I get those 3 am ideas.

3:37 am

Glantarell

that's a brilliant diea (scuse the pun)

3:38 am

hydra

LOl. I found it on Amazon. It works on an AAA battery.

3:38 am

hydra

It doubles as a very bright torch so it's most handy.

3:39 am

hydra

Bye for now *poof*

3:40 am

Glantarell

bye hydra - and good luck with the ending

3:53 am

Good morning darling! My laptop died again, so im trying to babble on my nook

Oh boy!

8:23 am

Name the black-masked man in the grid!

Hello to all my babble friends! Hope you all had a lovely day yesterday, those of you who were celebrating

Hello Scrabs, Molly and Crossy!

8:25 am

Scrabbler

Our first Thanksgiving Day without Dad. We missed him and always will.

8:26 am

8:26 am

Trifioso

Gentle hug scrabbler

8:26 am

crosshair

and now a useful and timely tidbit for our american friends as the black friday hysteria commences....

8:26 am

crosshair

To save money when you shop, don't touch anything. Touching an item makes you more likely to buy it, and willing to pay more.

8:26 am

Scrabbler

My mother had the toughest time. She reallymisses him.

8:27 am

MollyL

Sorry Scrabs. That first round of holidays is rough.

8:27 am

Scrabbler

Yes, it is hysteria, Crossy--people are spending and overspending their money just so they can get a deal. People lose all judgment.

8:28 am

crosshair

i am sorry scrabby it can be very hard with long marriages my m.i.l was devastated for the entire 2 years that she survived her husband

8:28 am

Brookie

Crossy, sorry for the delayed response. I got mesmerized by the grid. I've taken a year-long break from competition speeches but will return in the spring. Already writing that speech. How are you?

8:29 am

car.eeyore

Hi Brookie!

8:29 am

crosshair

not bad at all.dealing with family issues as we all seem to be of late but the mrs is doing well

8:29 am

Scrabbler

I would puke then faint if I had to give a speech.

8:30 am

Brookie

Yes, family issues are normal. Hi car.eeyore!

8:31 am

car.eeyore

Scrabs...you do it everyday with your patients. You would be fine.

8:31 am

Brookie

Scrabbs, I still get jitters when I go up on stage, but once I see that no one is throwing tomatoes at me, the nerves go away.

8:31 am

Brookie

Ditto to what car.eeyore said.

8:32 am

Scrabbler

In front of a few people I manage, but a larger group would overwhelm me. I am a visual-spatial person so I need time to create and see my words before speaking them.

8:33 am

Brookie

I'm the same way, Scrabbs. My competition speeches are ones I've written well in advance. The impromptu speech competitions are daunting (I still do them a little, but not as well.)

8:34 am

Brookie

People who can drum up a beautifully crafted speech on the spot just amaze me.

8:34 am

car.eeyore

I need stats for an M please?

8:34 am

Trifioso

Dont feel bad scrabs- LOTS if people dread making speeches

8:34 am

Scrabbler

I did speak at a church group 5 wks ago, re adolescent development, behavior and morality. I did fine because I am passionate about the topic. I see the reality of adolescent life and it scares the hell out of me.

8:34 am

Brookie

Start with my5,18

8:35 am

Scrabbler

Frankincense, my5

8:35 am

mael

a resin

8:35 am

Brookie

When you're passionate about what you're communicating, you'll definitely capture people's interest.

8:35 am

Scrabbler

And I forget the 3rd item that the Magi presented

8:35 am

crosshair

gold,frankencence and my5

8:36 am

Scrabbler

Ah, gold.

8:37 am

MollyL

I am having a laugh looking at some of what is on sale for Black Friday. A back hair shaver? An Ebelskiver maker? : D

8:37 am

crosshair

we just opened a brand new youth centre on the site of my old service station.now the kid can go hang out,play some pool,or cards,or read from its mini library.it has wi-fi and is just a good place to hang out if things need to cool down at home

8:38 am

Brookie

You never know when you get a hankering for an Ebelskiver.

8:38 am

car.eeyore

TY!

8:38 am

Trifioso

Ooooh, not sure on that one Brookie! I had a boyfriend in hs that was passionate about his stereo and could - and woukd- discuss it for HOURS. He was certainly captivated with his topic, but i wanted to plunge a firk in my ear

8:38 am

MollyL

I always forget that Brookie. : D

8:39 am

car.eeyore

That is awesome Crossy! How wonderful!

8:39 am

Brookie

Ha, very true, Trifioso!

Hello BR!

BabbleRabble

8:42 am

car.eeyore

Got it! TY my friend!

8:42 am

Scrabbler

Hi BR--any snow up there? We might get 9 inches by tomorrow night courtesy of the Lake Erie snow-making machine.

8:43 am

crosshair

it is good all around as many service station sites need massive earth clean up after 20 or 30 years in operation and if it is not to be a station again,the resale value is very low.so the town buys it as is on the cheap,makes it sparkly clean again and opened a youth centre on my site and a community care access centre on the other.it is a win-win scenario

8:43 am

smores

Hello again, grabbed a bite to eat, took care of the pets, back for more.

8:43 am

Scrabbler

Great outcomes, Crossy.

8:43 am

BabbleRabble

We have a bit of snow .... likely will be gone in the afternoon

8:44 am

Scrabbler

OK, smores, do you have the Z words. Am I blind for not seeing them?

8:44 am

car.eeyore

...but wait! After I get the outside decorations up!

8:44 am

Scrabbler

I should do that too, Car, before the snow starts.

8:45 am

Trifioso

And after i get the snow blower fixed!

Trifioso

Still no child support (over a week late!) Soalas, i must pass

8:46 am

smores

Bye car, enjoy your day

8:46 am

car.eeyore

WHAT!?!?!?!

8:46 am

Scrabbler

TY for Z words

8:47 am

car.eeyore

Isn't that a direct deposit?!?!?!

8:47 am

Scrabbler

Uh, oh, Trif.

8:47 am

Trifioso

Supposedly.

8:47 am

car.eeyore

Oh god.

8:47 am

smores

:( sorry Trif - I know that's rough when you're expecting it

8:47 am

car.eeyore

And his excuse?

8:48 am

Trifioso

Whatever. NOTHING he does surprises me anymore.

8:48 am

Scrabbler

I suppose you have very low expectations.

8:48 am

Trifioso

he disavows any knowledge of same

8:48 am

smores

yeah, I haven't gotten child support in 7years

8:49 am

crosshair

here the parent paying support pays the govt first and the parent getting the cheque gets a govt cheque.if the person paying defaults the govt goes after them.garnshees,liscence revoked and jail time if needed

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Call your lawyer, Trif.

8:49 am

Trifioso

Hahaha, you are right scrabs! I expect nothing at all from him, so anything he does, no matter how tiny, is a plus

8:49 am

car.eeyore

That is a direct violation of the agreement. Call the lawyer.

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Better plan than here, Crossy. Too many kids do not get there deserved money.

8:50 am

Scrabbler

Best approach, Trif--expect nothing then you cannot be disappointed.

8:50 am

crosshair

nope,the govt makes sure.i have a friend who did 18 months for missing a year of support

8:50 am

Trifioso

Thats what i did, crossy- my payments come through the dept of revenue. Or DID anyway. Dont know where they went

8:50 am

car.eeyore

And don't even worry about the fees, Trif. He will be responsible for them.

8:50 am

car.eeyore

OK. I am off.

8:51 am

smores

have a good workout car :)

8:51 am

Trifioso

But i do know i have NO HOPE of reaching a living soul at the DOR this week

8:51 am

Scrabbler

Lack of personal responsibility and accountability chaos my bottom! Grrrrr. And it is epidemic!

8:51 am

crosshair

your tushie is in chaos scrabbs?

8:51 am

Scrabbler

*chaps my bottom---one of my father's sayings

8:52 am

smores

lol..

8:52 am

BabbleRabble

ask him to be found in contempt of court for disobeying a court order and seek some quiet time for him behind bars cleaning toilets

8:52 am

Scrabbler

Well, Crossy, I believe my tushie has expanded after eating too much yesterday

8:52 am

smores

nice way of saying pain in the ass huh

8:53 am

Trifioso

What gets me is listening to him and my husband in law complaining about how their kitchen renovations ( their second remodel in 2 years) is driving them crazy.

8:53 am

crosshair

indeed,6 months of cleaning those stainless steel toilets with comet will give a person a whole new outlook on life

8:53 am

Scrabbler

BR, our official Babble attorney, speaks the truth!

8:54 am

Trifioso

But i look firward, not backward. Karma is real, and he should be TERRIFIED

8:54 am

crosshair

lol,trif my wealthy in-laws when they were alive used to send us pictures of the cruise ships they were on during their 5 vacations a year

8:55 am

crosshair

karma is very,very real

8:55 am

BabbleRabble

Karma does not pay the bills

haven't heard from thier dad in over 3 years - last time they saw him it had been 2 year

8:55 am

Scrabbler

Grrrrr

8:55 am

Trifioso

oh dear, crossy! Some people just really dont have the teeniest clue, do they?

8:55 am

Scrabbler

Hi Angel. What delayed it a day?

8:55 am

crosshair

mmm angel.you made crossy hungry

8:56 am

Trifioso

Can you garnish his wagws smores?

8:56 am

Scrabbler

Too many people never become true adults--no respect for others, no responsibility...just perpetual toddlers.

8:56 am

Trifioso

sorry for the typos.....babbling on a nook is hard!

8:57 am

smores

no - he conveniently works odd jobs

8:57 am

Trifioso

he still has to pay the ordered support smores, or its contempt!

8:57 am

Angelsong

Scrabbs, we always do our Thanksgiving a day later. I work on Thanksgiving Day so others can be off work. I can be Thankful any day, so Friday works better for us. Our office is open 24/7, 3

8:58 am

smores

living someway in VA - no record of address, job

8:58 am

Angelsong

8:58 am

Trifioso

What do you do angel?

8:58 am

Scrabbler

((Angel))

8:58 am

Trifioso

Im so sorry smores

8:58 am

Angelsong

365 days/year, so some people do work on holidays.

8:59 am

BabbleRabble

Call the states attorney for your county and/or your clerk to see what your rights are .... remember not doing anything may be considered your acquiescence in what he is doing.

8:59 am

Angelsong

I am an intake specialist for children and adult protective services, Trif.

8:59 am

smores

tried to pursue it a long time ago, should know I should try again

8:59 am

Trifioso

I agree with BR! These are your children!

9:00 am

smores

*I know I should...wow

9:00 am

Trifioso

Thanks angel. I am sorry your office needs to be open that much, if you understand my meaning?

9:01 am

BabbleRabble

You may have to assign your rights to the support to the county in return for getting financial assistance from the country during the interim

9:01 am

Scrabbler

I found re8 by myself.

9:01 am

Angelsong

I do, Trif. I have done this work for 14 years. I have said that, if people would keep their hands off each other and keep their clothing intact, I would be out of a job almost immediately. that isn't much of an exaggeration.

9:03 am

BabbleRabble

Too many use children as bargaining chips.

9:03 am

smores

I know Trif, BR you are right I should force him to take responsiblilty.

9:04 am

Scrabbler

And too many think kids are things to dress up and show off and forget that kids need to be educated, civilized and socialized.

9:04 am

Trifioso

See: here comes honey boo boo

9:05 am

smores

then there are those who just move out of state and forget they even have kids

9:05 am

Trifioso

(((((SMORES))))))

9:05 am

Scrabbler

Aaaaahhhh. You just cannot fix stupid, and there is a stupidity epidemic.

9:06 am

Scrabbler

I see that so much, smores, mostly Dads, but occ a Mom too.

9:06 am

BabbleRabble

There are interstate compacts to deal with those ..... the court in another state is supposed to take over enforcement upon a request by the home court

9:06 am

Angelsong

imho, scrabbs, ignorance is teachable; stupidity is voluntary.

9:07 am

Scrabbler

Yes, which is why the stupidity epidemic scares me.

9:08 am

Trifioso

Wheeeee- the lady i am making a costume for just called in her kids specs, so its off to the fabric store i go! My idea of a perfect black friday shop! Have a good day everyone

9:09 am

Good luck, Trif.

1:24 pm

dianedecoder

I have 3 married daughters right in the same town so we share most holiday event cooking and the daughter in law ( 3 hours away ) always brings the most lovely baking.

1:25 pm

Jillyjill

Yep hego, that's why my best friend and I went to this format 20 years ago. No need killing oneself off.

1:25 pm

hego

good idea Jilly.

1:26 pm

hego

Usually share with daughter but she was very busy this year so i volunteered.

1:26 pm

How's it going, Sue?

1:45 pm

MimiCat

1:45 pm

Jillyjill

We here would agree mimi, I take it you have been here?

1:45 pm

uusue2

pretty well, mimi, it is good to be home!

1:46 pm

Jillyjill

Yay! How is the food going?

1:46 pm

uusue2

oh the other hand, that means when Frank wants food he calls me instead of the hospital kitchen...

1:46 pm

MimiCat

Oh, yes, a few times. Since I live in Arizona, it's not a bad drive. I especially love the area just next to Yellowstone. All that open space in Montana and, of course, the "big sky."

1:46 pm

uusue2

seems to be going fine, jilly, he is eating quite a bit.

1:46 pm

uusue2

I need more eggs, though, and am not thrilled about the idea of shopping today.

1:47 pm

MimiCat

Do you have Safeway stores where you live, Sue?

1:47 pm

Jillyjill

That area is where I'm from mimi, grew up with Yellowstone in my backyard!

1:48 pm

uusue2

no, mimi, we have Jewel, Schnucks, Hy-Vee, and WalMart for grocery stores

1:48 pm

Jillyjill

I now live in the far sw edge of Montana. An hour south of Missoula

1:48 pm

MimiCat

Fabulous, Jilly--I am envious. Yellowstone is my favorite national park---so diverse.

1:48 pm

uusue2

I think Jewel may be owned by the same people that own Safeway

1:48 pm

MimiCat

Here in Phoenix Safeway has a grocery delivery service that is fabulous. Is it possible you have one there?

1:49 pm

Jillyjill

We honeymooned there. Hubby worked 2 seasons in the park, youngest son 3 seasons and oldest son just finished his second.

1:49 pm

uusue2

no, nobody delivers groceries here, we are too small a town.

1:49 pm

uusue2

I could probably go to the 7-11 or Walgreens just for eggs, though

1:50 pm

MimiCat

Jilly, I have pictures of me 5 months pregnant with first child hiking trails there. Also, some with us and all three kids.

1:50 pm

MimiCat

Sue, absolutely go to a convenience store for eggs---make it as easy on yourself as possible.

1:51 pm

crosshair

your turn peri

1:51 pm

Jillyjill

That's great mimi, am glad to hear of the hikes, too many people just come see Old Faithful or close geysers and never get off the path!

1:52 pm

Jillyjill

What hikes have you done? Fairie Falls, Mystic Falls and Storm Point are my favs

1:53 pm

MimiCat

We used to go camping there at the end of the season when almost no one was there----loved it. I don't like to go in the summer----too crowded. The end of Sept. is terrific. I'd love to go in the winter, too but would have a bit of a problem with the noisy snowmobiles.

1:53 pm

Jillyjill

We did the winter once, not really too bad, they only allow the quiet engine snowmobiles in btw.

1:54 pm

MimiCat

I don't remember which ones we did except for one which terrified me.....we were at the Upper Falls and somehow took a wrong turn to go back and ended up having to scale a metal stairway straight up---with all three children!! They were little, too, so had to hang onto them. I was terrified and wanted to kill the (now ex) husband for taking us there, as I'm sure it wasn't an accident.

1:54 pm

Jillyjill

We also love it in the fall. Only problem are the grizzlies. We ran into one once; on our 25th Anniversary trip hiking Storm Point

1:55 pm

uusue2

<--- would love to go to Yellowstone

1:56 pm

Jillyjill

ROFL..that's Uncle Tom's Trail. It is pretty wicked, but what a view of the Upper Falls. Did it many years ago, then again this year when I lost wgt and could manage it ;)

1:56 pm

MimiCat

Sue, if you ever get a chance, do it. There are many easy trails in case you don't like the hiking. Jenny Lake is beautiful, too. That brings to mind a blonde joke I like....sorry, blondes...here goes:

1:57 pm

welki

ooooh, jenny lake is gorgeous! my grandmother took one of my photos and painted a beautiful piece for me

1:57 pm

crosshair

blondes are extinct anyways right? thought it all came out of bottle now;))))

1:57 pm

Jillyjill

It is 6 hours from my house uusue, but you would be welcome in my home anytime! We are closer to Glacier, but love Yellowstone so much that we rarely go to Glacier

1:57 pm

MimiCat

A guy was camping and he went walking to find a store for supplies. After awhile with nothing in sight he saw a little store on the other side of a lake but there was no way to cross the lake. He saw a blonde come out of the store and yelled "How do you get to the other side?' She responded "You're already on the other side!"

1:57 pm

welki

maybe i can take a photo of it - brb

1:58 pm

Jillyjill

My blond hair is all white now :(

1:59 pm

MimiCat

One more---Do you know how you can tell if someone has a blonde secretary? By the white-out on the computer screen.

1:59 pm

MimiCat

Jilly---can I come, too??!!!

2:00 pm

Jillyjill

Absolutely!!! Mimi you are most welcome!

2:00 pm

MimiCat

Thank you! I may take you up on that next Spring.

Well about needing an mo4/10...it's like what Helen Hunt's mother said in As Good As It Gets when Helen Hunt screamed I JUST WANT A NORMAL BOYFRIEND! Mom said, "We all do dear. They don't exist."

3:54 pm

Soodle

Aaah! LOVE As Good As It Gets!

I like that movie, but parts of it bugged me. Like, if any woman ever hears "you make me want to be a better man" they need to RUN, RIGHT AWAY.

That's right up there with "I don't deserve you".

Oh I envy you your whiskey Molly, (even though I don't drink it). On this, the coldest night of the year to date, my heating has packed up. I am playing Babble dressed like an onion... I have about 17 layers of clothing on. I'm just waiting for my electric blanket to hotten up, then I'm off to bed...........

4:13 pm

Oh no Soodle. We are having a bit of a cold front here, but I can't complain, if it were anywhere else you all would be maybe in shorts.

Lol @ Dose..

4:18 pm

ty doseffing, great clue.

4:18 pm

MollyL

I didn't think the phrase "Whiskey Free Zone" was allowed in Ireland.

4:20 pm

MollyL

This is why Soodle and I are going to retire together. We will sit around, with two whiskey glasses out (both for me) and then if the Whiskey Police come around, she won't get kicked off of my island.

4:20 pm

Soodle

Its November, Molly! Traditionally a dry month...... (Perhaps to allow livers to prepare themselves for the rigours of Christmas etc....)

4:21 pm

Soodle

.............I DREAM about me n Moll's island.............

4:21 pm

MollyL

And you pay attention to this November thing because?

4:22 pm

Soodle

Well, apart from a liver thing, its also a financial thing.....

4:22 pm

MollyL

You are living on my island at the moment Soodle. Have you not seen Braveheart? With the crazy Irish guy who refers to Ireland as "my island"?

4:22 pm

Molly!!!! Unless you want your ears bored off you, never mention BraveHeart to me!! (Filmed 3 miles up the road from me yadda yadda yadda)

Bored? I would soak up every word with rapt attention.

Twenty Five years ago on Grey Cup weekend my girlfriend and I took the new six week old baby to the West Coast ... rented a car ... and as we drove into their driveway ... my sister in law runs out and orders me to hurry into the house ... where there is a JP waiting with papers for a wedding that I wasn't planning ...

hi everyone

5:04 pm

ChampFit

It makes a very juicy bird, and takes about 1/4 of the time. Doesn't LOOK all that snazzy, but you get the drift.

5:05 pm

Glantarell

I have American friends who tell me it's the only way t cook a turkey - and that of the fat is hot enough, it doesn;t absorb any fat.

5:05 pm

flosey

crossy, that was my first impression but I was assured that it was not fatty at all, Champ could tell us?

5:05 pm

flosey

ah, Champ has already told us, thanks Champ

5:05 pm

Glantarell

Actually, British fish'n'chip shops all sell chicen portions which are deep fried, and i hve to admit that thye are yuimmy

5:05 pm

ChampFit

It really was great! Even the white meat was juicy. I'd do it again, for sure.

5:06 pm

Glantarell

Hi Flosey

5:06 pm

flosey

or, sorry, Glant made that comment re fatty

5:06 pm

Same idea as fried chicken which most of us love.

5:07 pm

flosey

hi Glant - wish I could talk hubby into that trip to Wales - his grandmother left at 16, by herself, to come to Canada

5:07 pm

ChampFit

Except no breading.

5:08 pm

Glantarell

About 6 yars ago I paid £46 for a 'brinze, heritage, free range turkey. I cooked it very carefully, with all manner of trimmings and methods designed to retain moisture and flavour. It was the very best turkey I have ever eaten, but not nice enough to justify the cost. I have decided goose is the way forwards LOL

5:08 pm

crosshair

we came over in 66 flosey and only my brother has ever been back for mums funeral

5:08 pm

flosey

he has always wanted to go back to see if the old house still stands - mind you, his grandmother at 16 - wow, going back to 1870 +/- long way back

5:08 pm

Glantarell

No breading on UK fried chicken either - just deep fried chicken protion with skin on

5:08 pm

ChampFit

Dear goodness Glantarell! That's one fancy pants turkey!

5:09 pm

Glantarell

Do you have the address Flosey? I could check out whether the hosue still stands...

5:09 pm

flosey

I'll try to find it, bbs

5:12 pm

flosey

Glant: Cakfield Villa, 10 Dunraven Place, Wyndham, Cgmore Vale (maybe Ogmo? SW Glam

5:12 pm

flosey

does this tell you anything? it was on an old envelope

5:14 pm

Glantarell

Ogmore Vale. Now, there's a place. A small town at the end of a steep sided valley. Last time I went there was in about 1998, and I have to say there looked to be distinct signs of inbreeding :-(

5:15 pm

Glantarell

I will check it out

5:16 pm

flosey

oh my, well she left there maybe around 187?? or thereabouts if she was only 16 at the time

5:17 pm

Glantarell

Dunraven Place still exists.

5:18 pm

flosey

doesn't sound like a single family dwelling, more like perhaps a nursing home or something of that nature?

5:19 pm

Glantarell

Go onto google steet search thing on maps, and search forOgmore Vale, Bridgend CF32 7ET and you can see a photo - it is a terraced house

5:20 pm

flosey

thanks Glant, I will, hubby will be very interested

5:20 pm

Glantarell

I lie. It is on a street where most of the hosues are terraced, but you can find number 10 on the google street thing and it is a detached stone house

5:21 pm

Glantarell

this link will take you near: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=ogmor\ne+vale+surgery&ie=UTF-8&ei=jQOwUNH8AeS\nc0QXDiYGIBw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAA the you can fiddle about

5:22 pm

Glantarell

In the 1870s the house would have been relatively new - this was a mining community, housing built for the miners, mines probably operated form about 1850/60 onwards

5:22 pm

Glantarell

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogmore_Va\nle

5:23 pm

flosey

thanks again, will check all

5:23 pm

flosey

and sorry folks for taking up so much chog space but this is very interesting to hubby

5:24 pm

Glantarell

Ogmore Vale is about 22 miles form em

5:24 pm

Glantarell

*from me

5:25 pm

uusue2

don't worry, flosey, I find it quite fascinating as well!

5:25 pm

Glantarell

If you ever come to Wales, I'd be happy to take you there Flosey

5:27 pm

flosey

how kind of you Glant, I'll try to talk him into taking the trip

5:27 pm

flosey

and thanks Sue

5:28 pm

Glantarell

Many miners form south Wales emigrated to the Philadelphia area, and there are speech patterns in that area which are only heard in Wales and Philly

5:29 pm

Glantarell

like, 'by here', 'over by there'

5:29 pm

flosey

interesting

5:30 pm

flosey

Hubby had an exchange teacher from Wales working in the physics dept. he and his wife visited us a couple of years ago

5:30 pm

wht

Time to forage for turkey leftovers. BBL.

5:30 pm

Glantarell

enjoy, WHT

5:31 pm

flosey

sounds good wht

5:31 pm

flosey

ok, going to check out these addresses

5:32 pm

Glantarell

*fireflies* - and my last word might apply to leftover Thanksgiving food - re5/20 - to cook in fat again

5:32 pm

Glantarell

good luck flosey

5:33 pm

uusue2

yay glant!

5:33 pm

Glantarell

and my email address is in my profile if you need it

5:34 pm

Glantarell

11.30 and time to head off to bed, night all

5:34 pm

uusue2

night, glant!

5:34 pm

MollyL

Oh lord, our Thanksgiving food was rich enough without cooking it in fat again.

5:36 pm

hurshy

ours too - i had to laugh when i realized that even the vegetables - squash with a stick of butter and some heavy cream - broccoli slathered in a blue cheese sauce - were not so very healthy

5:36 pm

crosshair

lol that because you were having a cheese and cream dish with broccoli dressing hehe

5:36 pm

MollyL

I know I went through a pound of butter with everything that I made for Thanksgiving.

5:52 pm

Good Evening again

Good morning everyone :)

howdy liz

6:27 pm

MimiCat

Hi, all. Hey, guys, who cares if a couple of times a year you pull out all the stops and eat what you love?!! I have a friend who went vegan and I told her if I couldn't have cheese, I'd lose the will to live.

6:28 pm

Lizlin

Hi Mimi - I so agree with you!

6:28 pm

Lizlin

Ch 6 is my weakness - only keep it in the house sometimes or I eat it like choccy!

6:30 pm

MimiCat

I don't eat a lot in any given day, but I do eat whatever I want. I'm 61----I've decided to enjoy the rest of my life. When it's my turn to go, God knows where to find me! Remember the big running guy, Jim (?) Fix? Ran marathons, etc., and fell dead young. When it's your time....it's your time. That's my belief and I'm stickin' to it!

6:31 pm

Lizlin

I'm with you there - live life to the full while you can.

6:31 pm

MimiCat

Spent years watching what I ate and trying to stay thin. Now that my looks are gone, I'm settling for being colorful.

6:32 pm

MollyL

It would be very sad to have your last thought be "I wish I had enjoyed life more".

6:32 pm

Lizlin

Colourful is great - it's about how you feel and what you do with life

6:33 pm

Lizlin

So I really enjoyed the beef we had last night!

6:33 pm

MimiCat

Always been mindful of the what if's. Don't have many of those since I've done so very much. People think I'm diverse and curious when actually I just have a short attention span!

6:34 pm

MimiCat

Molly, that's the way I feel about cleaning. I don't think my last thought will be "Gee, I wish I'd cleaned more." So I do other things and get around to it when I can.

6:34 pm

Lizlin

I think people thought I was mad and brave when I moved to Aus 4 years ago but it's a great adventure every day. I do miss friends though and my family.

6:34 pm

Lizlin

Hate cleaning!!!!

6:35 pm

MimiCat

Need a roommate, Liz?!!!

6:36 pm

Lizlin

Can you imagine if a "I haven't cleaned ..." was your last thought??? I'll have to ask my gorgeous hubby, Mimi?

6:36 pm

Lizlin

If you're ever this way though ...

6:36 pm

MimiCat

Liz, where were you from before Australia?

6:36 pm

Lizlin

London

6:37 pm

MimiCat

Another place I'd love to visit. I have some travel plans to make for the Spring, so....you never know. Hey, I have a room here in Phoenix if you come here!

6:37 pm

Lizlin

I'll bear that in mind

6:39 pm

MimiCat

Many people don't understand how I can love living alone but I always have my own head for company. It's comforting being schizophrenic---you're never alone and you're always entertained!! (Kidding about the schizo part, btw.)

6:39 pm

MimiCat

What prompted your move, Liz?

6:39 pm

Lizlin

I lived alone for quite a while before I met my hubby - but wouldn't go back now. Blissfully happy. Hubby is an Aussie - met him in London.

6:40 pm

Lizlin

10 years ago I wouldn't have imagined this life in my wildest dreams!

6:41 pm

MimiCat

I lived in Los Angeles with an Aussie briefly----it wasn't good. But he was crazy---really. Don't hold that against Aussie men. Is he at all chauvinistic? I didn't marry until I was 30.

6:41 pm

Lizlin

No not in the slightest bit chauvinistic! I only married 4.5 years ago - I'm 58!

6:42 pm

Lizlin

Been with my man almost 10 years

6:42 pm

MimiCat

Love it when changes happen and shake things up. Of course, I could have done without the heart attack I had earlier this year, but God doesn't want me there yet. I think he'll leave me here a long time because he doesn't want me there criticizing how he's doing things!!!

6:43 pm

Lizlin

Sorry to hear about the heart attack - you look after yourself! Too many things still to do here!

6:43 pm

MimiCat

Were you single until then? Wow---thought I waited awhile. Had all 3 of my kids in my 30's....should have raised dogs and cats instead....

6:44 pm

MimiCat

Oprah had the right idea---have a great career, make lots of money, never marry and raise dogs.

6:44 pm

Lizlin

Taught kids, knew men but never wanted my own kids.Teaching - hmm - not much money there!!!!

6:45 pm

MimiCat

No, but I'll bet it was rewarding. We all have teachers that have influenced our lives.

6:46 pm

Lizlin

But for much of the time I loved teaching - kids were great, even the challenging ones. It was all the govt crap around it that spoiled it - like in many other jobs.

6:47 pm

Lizlin

Time to go and move some concrete! Working on our garden! Back later to try and nail a few of the 100 words that are left!

6:47 pm

MimiCat

I went to a small rural school in Ohio. My senior year I had an English teacher who said we had to do the required tests, etc., but the rest of the class time all year we spent reading and discussing "The Prophet." Changed my life.

6:48 pm

MimiCat

Bye, Liz! Tote that barge, lift that bale!!!

6:48 pm

Lizlin

That sounds good - taught primary but literature (literacy) was my speciality!

6:48 pm

Lizlin

Bye for now!

6:48 pm

MimiCat

I'm gone for awhile, too.

7:31 pm

7:53 pm

Clue for the se6,24. It comes after what the eyes do.

7:59 pm

MollyL

I had a great Thanksgiving MollyL, thanks! How about you?

9:35 pm

MimiCat

Smores, think somehow your computer caught the problem mine was having yesterday?!!!

9:36 pm

smores

lol..I don't know Mimi, keeps locking up.

9:36 pm

MimiCat

Maybe you should try re-booting it.

9:38 pm

smores

1st time I thought it was babble, it froze for long time then babble shut down.

9:39 pm

MimiCat

Whenever something like that happens to mine, the first thing I try is re-booting. Seems to solve a variety of issues.

9:39 pm

LeslieAnn

it is also the first thing tech support will suggest when you call them, so i always get that out of the way first :)

9:40 pm

Hello LeslieAnn! How are you doing? Welcome to the chog.

9:40 pm

LeslieAnn

heya min

9:40 pm

MollyL

I had a great Thanksgiving too, Min. Nice day with my kids. : )

9:41 pm

smores

Yeah, I'll try that if it does it again, overdue in cleaning the cache and history. Problem wouldn't hurt to run the registry cleaner

9:42 pm

smores

* probably

9:42 pm

Minveryork

That is good. I went to Long Island and celebrated with my mother-in-law, her sister and her family.It took us 2 hours to get out there&three hours to come back home

9:43 pm

Lizlin

Lunch over, so hi again

9:43 pm

MollyL

Traveling is tough on Thanksgiving weekend. So many people going to visit family.

9:44 pm

Minveryork

My annual pie that I make every year was a hit.I only make it once a year because it's such a pain in the arse to make.

9:44 pm

LeslieAnn

ooh what kind

9:44 pm

smores

hiya liz

9:44 pm

Minveryork

I make French Silk Pie. It is a very rich chocolate cream pie

9:44 pm

smores

and Hi leslie

9:45 pm

LeslieAnn

heya smores

9:45 pm

smores

yummy Min

9:45 pm

MollyL

I think JillyJill made that same pie as well. Must be good if so many people like it.

9:45 pm

LeslieAnn

you had me at chocolate cream!

9:45 pm

Lizlin

Very yummy - put some in the PB!!!

9:46 pm

Minveryork

Recipe calls for 4 eggs, each egg to be beaten for five min each. I made a double recipe & needed to beat 8 eggs so I am beating eggs for 40 minutes. My arm gets so very tired!

9:46 pm

smores

I'm gonna call it a night - have a wonderful evening everyone ( day to you Liz :0 )

9:46 pm

MollyL

Now there is a cooking direction I have never heard before.

9:47 pm

Lizlin

Sleep well smores :)

9:47 pm

Minveryork

Goodbye smores! I'll see you tomorrow in the chog maybe.

9:47 pm

LeslieAnn

wahoo found a 9 all by myself

9:47 pm

LeslieAnn

good night smores

9:47 pm

Lizlin

Better than going to the gym Min - much more rewarding in the end!

9:48 pm

Minveryork

Well after the third egg, my hand mixer broke and I had to run out to the store to get another mixer.Whole thing took me two hours to make. I really need to get a kitchen-aid!

9:48 pm

smores

{{ group hug }} poof

9:50 pm

MollyL

I just looked at Martha Stewart's recipe. I didn't realize it was a refrigerated, no bake pie. Unusual for something with eggs in it.

9:50 pm

Minveryork

I use the recipe that is on allrecipes.com.Best one there is.

9:51 pm

LeslieAnn

i have used that site for years min. not that i cook too much but it is a good guide

9:52 pm

Minveryork

I use that one and cooks.com, but allrecipes.com is better.

9:55 pm

Minveryork

I was about to put me and MolyL into the PB for recipe,but it isn't in the grid thank goodness. It's just a phantom word

9:55 pm

LeslieAnn

it is in the plural

9:57 pm

MollyL

?

9:57 pm

LeslieAnn

the food min made

9:57 pm

MollyL

Oh, I thought you meant recipes.

9:58 pm

Lizlin

Me too! Duh!!!

9:58 pm

Minveryork

Yeah, me too.Was confuzzled there for a minute LeslieAnn

9:58 pm

LeslieAnn

ohhh she probably did

9:58 pm

MollyL

No duhs Liz, that is the word Min referred to.

9:58 pm

LeslieAnn

i had just found pi 4/5 after talking about it

9:59 pm

Lizlin

:)

10:00 pm

LeslieAnn

speaking of non-words, i am sure bookdoctorgwen has had to "respine" a book before

10:00 pm

MollyL

Well if talking about things is making them so, lets talk about the winning Powerball ticket in my wallet.

10:01 pm

Minveryork

Gave up on the grid at 5:22 so I am useless here.Off to bed

10:01 pm

MollyL

Goodnight Min

You know, I just realized that LA should be PB bound for sp5 : )

10:35 pm

LeslieAnn

meh, i think statute of limitations is out

10:36 pm

MollyL

Now there is a new one. Statute of limitations on the penalty box. It's like Babble Court.

10:37 pm

LeslieAnn

with no-nonsense Judge Molly

10:37 pm

MollyL

Oh, I wouldn't be a very good judge. I don't play by the rules. : D

10:38 pm

LeslieAnn

oh. well then.

10:38 pm

LeslieAnn

you can be the baliff

10:38 pm

LeslieAnn

and kick people out when they get too rowdy

10:41 pm

There we go : )

Aw, Larry Hagman died. : (

10:57 pm

gapeach

Oh, no! I thought he looked kind of pale the last time I saw him. Did that new series make it to TV?

10:58 pm

MollyL

Yes, it's on TNT. Hagman has been battling cancer and cirrhosis for a long time.
