1:32 am

Lizlin

A very high number - might describe number of stars

1:36 am

gapeach

Thanks, Liz. Looking.

1:37 am

Lizlin

My 6 - not a number like ten - more like a descriptive amount.

1:43 am

gapeach

Gosh, Liz. I feel so dumb.....googled it and still can't find it.

1:44 am

Lizlin

It goes diagonally up

1:45 am

gapeach

Thanks much, Liz.

1:45 am

Lizlin

Ends in almost a math term - not subtraction.

1:48 am

gapeach

I am so thankful for all the clues.

g'day and cooe from me

2:04 am

Lizlin

Hi Rose :)

2:05 am

grannyrose

ooooh, liz, girl. how are you? thanx for all the beautiful photos. i feel very spoiled, dear.

2:06 am

Lizlin

Np! I love taking photos, though at the moment those are just from my phone, so not processed and not the best quality.

2:07 am

grannyrose

they are good enough for me. and lovely to finally catch sight of your lovely face, too.

2:07 am

Lizlin

Lol!

2:08 am

Lizlin

I hate being photographed!

2:09 am

grannyrose

oh, and liz, i think my FM is finally starting to settle. i was actually so cold last night i had to snug up to don.

2:09 am

Lizlin

That's really good news and snuggling up to don is a very good thing!

2:10 am

grannyrose

i hate being photographed also. i always feel i should suggest the photographer put on a fish-eye lens in order to get all of me in the picture.

2:10 am

Lizlin

Better than slinging the covers off!

2:10 am

Lizlin

I loved those pics of you and the family

2:11 am

grannyrose

you're very kind liz, and what does your seeing-eye dog say?...lolol

2:12 am

Lizlin

Lol. It says the same. Really happy to have caught you here - it's been a few days but I've got to go. Hugs.

2:13 am

grannyrose

hugs dear. take care

4:08 am

grannyrose

hugs my dearest pugs. how are you, dear?

4:09 am

grannyrose

you missed liz, and sprite is going out again thia morning and won't be in until later

4:10 am

grannyrose

it was wonderful. and with the aid of my walking stick i walked about 1 kilometer, over 1/2 mile.

4:34 am

mari

Please - another save my sanity moment - the re7/28 ?

4:40 am

grannyrose

re7, re + double consonant + ple***, not thank-you

4:45 am

crosshair

good morning everyone:)

4:45 am

grannyrose

g'day crossy. how are you mate?

4:46 am

crosshair

not too bad at all, rose and you?

4:47 am

grannyrose

surprisingly well. i walked over a kilometer last night, with walking stick. that's over 1/2 a mile.

4:47 am

crosshair

very nice.:) My beloved and I are heavy into hiking this year for general fitness and to save our knees.

4:47 am

grannyrose

how's mrs crossy? is she cruising?

4:48 am

crosshair

I have bursitis and the wife has arthritis in the knees and Dr says "use em, or lose em"

4:48 am

grannyrose

i worked with full weights on my ankle on monday in the pool, and will do again tomorrow morning.

4:49 am

crosshair

she is well other than a few general aches and pain that come with life

4:49 am

crosshair

I am glad you are coming along so well:)

4:49 am

grannyrose

sort of agree. it depends on how degenerated the knees are. i was bone on bone when i had my surgery.

4:50 am

crosshair

yes, there reaches a point when all the exercise in the worlk will not fix the knees, then it is on to the next step

4:51 am

grannyrose

mind you, at the time i was doing 10 hour shifts, plus 2 days of gardening, including the mowing of over 1/2 acre every weekend.

4:51 am

crosshair

wow! got tired just reading that!'

4:51 am

grannyrose

are you on the herbal remedies as well? i.e. glucosamine, chondrointon..

4:52 am

crosshair

sec.. let me see..

4:52 am

grannyrose

red krill oil? garlic?

4:52 am

crosshair

says "collagen glucosamine"

4:54 am

grannyrose

chondroiton, shark's cartilage. it has kept arty ritis at bay in my hands for over 10 years.

4:54 am

crosshair

though pharmacist says it is a real slow, gradual thing

4:54 am

crosshair

I have horrible arthritis in my neck where i herniated three disks over 10 years ago

4:55 am

crosshair

last CT scan I had said my neck was full of it:(

4:55 am

crosshair

no wonder it hurts:(

4:56 am

grannyrose

do you get your natural remedies from pharmacist? check out the prices on these sites...progressive health and vitacost. they are very competitive, including postage and handling.

4:56 am

crosshair

yes, I think you gave me some info on that. I have it in the computer somewhere. I can see we are going to have to buy in bulk

4:57 am

grannyrose

aww, crossy, i know mate. my last CT showed every, and i mean every joint in my body has arthritis, including the sutures in my skull. ( where a baby's fontanelle are)

4:58 am

grannyrose

well, crossy, put it place right now. the more you can save, the better, right?

4:59 am

grannyrose

both sites give regular customers really good discounts.

5:00 am

crosshair

Indeed. Looking as we speak because this last bottle of capsules cost 15 dollars for 30 pills!! ouch!

5:06 am

crosshair

I keep forgetting about the morning babble reset at 06:00 am

5:22 am

grannyrose

and back. steak and chips never tasted so good. ;-)

5:22 am

crosshair

mmm

5:23 am

crosshair

best revenge for the trials and tribulations of life is living well:)

5:23 am

grannyrose

and corn on the cob, baby peas, broccoli..

5:23 am

grannyrose

*giggle* absolutely

5:23 am

crosshair

I have to wait till september for the good corn on the cob:(

5:24 am

grannyrose

ugh. frozen no good over there?

5:25 am

crosshair

well, i mean right on the cob corn itself

5:25 am

crosshair

frozen is ok

5:26 am

crosshair

I mean fresh ears of corn where you can still smell the sunshine of them and you dump about 3 dozen ears of them into a giant cauldrom in the back yard over a bonfire;)

5:26 am

grannyrose

we splashed out and bought an electris vegetable steamer. the flavour is amazing. each very individual.

5:26 am

crosshair

cauldron

5:27 am

grannyrose

yeah, i hear you crossy. that would be wonderful.

5:27 am

crosshair

steamers are nice. Keeps more of the goodness of your veggies intact:)

5:27 am

grannyrose

and you can cook all, except the leafy vegies at once.

5:29 am

crosshair

very nice:)

5:30 am

crosshair

I have one of those old fashioned metal steamers you place into a pot of water. it is a perforated , hindged contraption and opens up like a flower petal into 8 segments and holds about 2 cups of veggies

5:30 am

crosshair

hinged

5:30 am

grannyrose

we just add the leafy vegies, spinach, silver beet, at the appropriate time.

5:31 am

grannyrose

the best before this cooker was the pressure cooker. the amount of vegies i have cooked in a pressure cooker...

5:31 am

Scrabbler

Good day to all.

5:32 am

grannyrose

hey ya scrabs. are you good today?

5:32 am

crosshair

Crossy is afraid of pressure cookers. My mum had one where the seal failed when i was a kid and it was a disaster

5:32 am

crosshair

howdy scrabby

5:32 am

grannyrose

roflol, crossy....like the pea soup hit the ceiling??

5:33 am

Scrabbler

Sipping coffee and waking up. My sister went back to New Jersey yesterday and I return to work today.

5:33 am

crosshair

it was EVERYWHERE!

5:33 am

Scrabbler

Hahaha, Crossy. How long did the clean-up take?

5:33 am

grannyrose

enjoy that coffee, scrabs.

5:33 am

crosshair

we are up to 5 k hikes now scrabby, three times a week(weather permitting)

5:33 am

crosshair

all day

5:34 am

crosshair

darn cookers things are dangerous

5:34 am

Scrabbler

Great, Crossy. My sister and I walked everyday for 5 days.

5:35 am

crosshair

and gulping collagen glucosamine:)

5:35 am

Scrabbler

Just stay mobile. Immobility is the beginning of the end, Crossy.

5:36 am

crosshair

we felt the stirring of the land of no-kness and do not wish it

5:39 am

Scrabbler

My mother's knees are horrible but she is too old to undergo replacements at age 83, thus she must endure pain and stiffness. we hope to bring her home from the rehab facility on Tuesdya.

5:39 am

crosshair

glad your mum is homeward bound

5:40 am

grannyrose

oh, scrabs you are wonderful, dear. by home is mom's home with you?

5:40 am

crosshair

my da is 71 this year, abuses and treats his diabetic needs halfheartedly and is heavily dependant on a walker:(

5:40 am

crosshair

cannot talk to the man at all

5:41 am

Scrabbler

Her own home, Rose. But it is a tri-level (split-level) home so stairs are an issue.

5:41 am

Scrabbler

My brother lives at home and will be a big help but my mother must manage her own needs in the bathroom unless my sister or me are there.

5:42 am

grannyrose

as it would be, scrabs. that will be difficult for her. surely the rehab. centre would have inspected her home.

5:42 am

crosshair

she will feel so much better I am sure, once she is in a family environment once again

5:42 am

Scrabbler

Not yet, but we discussed the house. Grab bars must be installed and extra stair railings.

5:43 am

Scrabbler

She said she would rather die than be stuck in anursing home forever.

5:43 am

crosshair

do mom need all that house at this stage, scrabby? can she downsize to something single level?

5:44 am

Scrabbler

She owns it and would never leave after living there for 50+ years.

5:44 am

crosshair

sigh.. that is usually the way

5:45 am

crosshair

my M.I.L destroyed herself right till the end trying to maintain a 3800 sq foot home she raised the kids in and for the last 15 years her and fil rattled around in the place like two peas in the bottom of a tin can

5:46 am

sukee

Good morning

5:46 am

crosshair

howdy sukee

5:46 am

grannyrose

g'day sukee

5:47 am

Scrabbler

Mom's house is not big and she wants to be on the level with the LR, DR, and kitchen. But that means using 5 stairs to get to bathroom.

5:47 am

Scrabbler

Hi sukeee

5:48 am

grannyrose

scrabs, any chance of converting the 5 stairs to a ramp?

5:48 am

crosshair

i was just thinking of a ramp!

5:48 am

crosshair

lol snap!

5:48 am

Scrabbler

We are considering a stair lift.

5:49 am

grannyrose

for 5 stairs? wouldn't it be cheaper to put a ramp in?

5:49 am

Scrabbler

I thought of a ramp too. For now Mom wants to try using the stairs.

5:49 am

sukee

Paying attention here. Luckily I live in an apartment. I can't do stair anymore due to muscle myopathy. I pass by houses and think I'd never be able to live there.

5:50 am

Scrabbler

Oh, sukee. Do you manage ok?

5:50 am

grannyrose

*tearing hair out* that's what my mum did...she used to go up the stairs, BACKWARDS, dragging her walker after her. don't let it happen, scrabs. it's nail biting.

5:51 am

sukee

Not bad. I currently have a walker, got a raised toilet seat and bath bench.

5:51 am

sukee

I still work out 3 times a week to stay mobile

5:51 am

crosshair

falls at this stage do more damage and they never really recover afterwards. My farther in laws decline started that way after a small fall where he broke his shoulder

5:51 am

Scrabbler

Rose, Mom will make a decision soon. I think she needs to try the stairs in order to make a adecision.

5:51 am

grannyrose

good for you sukee....my hat is off to you.

5:52 am

Scrabbler

Yes, injury leads to immobility and deterioration.

5:52 am

crosshair

and i mean small, he slipped on a bit of loose carpeting and landed on the floor

5:53 am

sukee

That was my issue crossy, had a bad fall a couple of years ago that messed everything up. Broke my fibula, then last year I badly sprained an ankle. So now I have a walker and I feel a lot better.

5:53 am

crosshair

man never weighed more that 140 pounds soaking wet at the best of times

5:53 am

crosshair

I am glad you are improving sukee

5:55 am

sukee

I may end up in some assisted living facility one day, but this myopathy is slow moving. I actually work out at the place I wouldn't mind living at if I had to. There is an attached apartment building that gives you independance but help when you need it.

5:56 am

sukee

On another note, my best friend just called me last night to tell me her husband of 20 plus years met someone else and is leaving her.

5:56 am

crosshair

yes, it is good to plan ahead

5:56 am

Scrabbler

Good, Sukee.

5:56 am

crosshair

oops! not good

5:57 am

sukee

Came out of the blue.

5:58 am

grannyrose

unfortunately, us kids weren't as assertive with our mother as we should have been. we allowed her to stay in the family home, with some support from council carers, until she decided to move herself into a nursing home, where she spent the last 6 months of her life. she was so happy there, and she ofeten said, she wished she had moved sooner.

5:59 am

crosshair

that is what we have for our da, our version of council carers called "community care access support"

5:59 am

crosshair

but my da is stubborn

5:59 am

grannyrose

sukee, that's awful, hun. your poor friend. such betrayal.

6:00 am

sukee

Even I get a woman in once a month to clean my floors for a discount :)

6:01 am

sukee

I have always seen her husband as rather immature. He love to hang out with his friends in bars a lot in his spare time. Due to health problems she can't drink any more and stays home. He thinks he is still in his 20s

6:01 am

crosshair

there is something that does not lend towards long term bonding:(

6:02 am

crosshair

leaving her to sit around while all his outing revolve around the bar scene

6:02 am

grannyrose

mid-life crisis...someone should smack his ears together. and remind him of his vows he made 20+ years ago.

6:02 am

sukee

And right now she is dealing with a mother with dementia too.

6:03 am

sukee

They had been through some hard times but she thought everything was fine. It's possible she was ignoring signs, but still. Anyway when he told her last night she kicked him out of the house.

6:03 am

o-o

phantom: turducken

6:04 am

sukee

lol

6:04 am

Scrabbler

It sounds as if she is better off without him, sukee.

6:04 am

crosshair

indeed, rose. My beloved and i are on phase 2 as i like to call it and we have new interests we share together. Our son is an adult now and must find his own way(with gentle guidance0. I am back in school as you all know and the mrs is going to be taking some classes. we have our nature hikes that we both love. Life is pretty good right now. just need a lottery win:)

6:04 am

grannyrose

o-o, nice to see you, mate. glad those tornadoes didn't get you. were they close to you?

6:05 am

sukee

Eventually I guess. But she is 54, hasn't worked in years other than volunteer work. He does make good money at Microsoft and said she will be taken care of.

6:05 am

Scrabbler

Do you ever get tornadoes that far north, o-o?

6:05 am

grannyrose

good gief, just looked up turducken...what a meal!!

6:06 am

sukee

There was a big one about 3 hours away from me Scrabbler

6:06 am

o-o

For sure.

6:06 am

crosshair

we had one touch down near us two days ago scrabby! Town of Angus

6:06 am

sukee

Yes, that is where I'm talking about

6:06 am

grannyrose

ugh, o-o.

6:06 am

crosshair

small f1 or f2.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Oh, yes, I read about that, Crossy.

6:07 am

o-o

ND is on the upper eastern part of tornado alley

6:07 am

crosshair

we got the tornado warning and it hopped right over us and landed in Angus.

6:08 am

sukee

There were warnings in this area

6:09 am

crosshair

It was quite a system as it passed through eh sukee?

6:09 am

grannyrose

well for what it's worth, i'm glad to see you all safe and sound.

6:09 am

sukee

Had 80mph winds, my balcony door was rattling like crazy.

6:10 am

crosshair

now we had heavy fog this morning, go figure.

6:10 am

o-o

tornadoes get quite huffy

6:14 am

sukee

for part of my law class, we had to partner up with a class-mate and brew up a pre-nup as officially as possible so i chose this beautiful young lass of about 20. Got a good mark as well. When i got home the wife said 'well, how did class go today?" and i said " fine dear, I set up a pre-nup with a hot blonde 30 years my junior but we have yet to set a wedding date." lol

I did the math the other day and we spend more money on cat food and other sundries for the fur-babies than we do on the grocery budget for their human slaves.

9:13 am

ursh

lol crosshair - same here 3 x cats 1 x dog and only 2 x humans - we eat the cheaper varieties of our food but they eat the more expensive varieties of their food - crazy !!

9:14 am

crosshair

yup same here. top tier food for the kitties, scratch and dent bin for the humans

9:15 am

MollyL

It astounds me how expensive it is to have pets. What with food, vet care, etc. And then I am further astounded that people have more than one pet.

9:16 am

crosshair

just did the math; food (wet and dry food) and littler are $125.00 a month alone

9:16 am

ursh

I have only 1 cat that I wanted and got 14 years ago, the others are all hand me downs from family and friends that could no longer keep them

9:16 am

crosshair

litter

9:19 am

crosshair

yup they come to you and say "I am moving and they do not allow pets, can you take fluffy or he is off to the vets and the big needle and the rainbow bridge" before you know it, you have two or 3 pets

9:19 am

ursh

exacterley crossy

9:21 am

MollyL

Wow, you spend less than 125 dollars a month on groceries?

9:22 am

crosshair

that is just food and litter. vet costs, toys, catnip and other things are not in that figure

9:27 am

wish we had that sort of option.

9:28 am

suefrad625

and the flea and tick...i found Seresto® for dogs and cats and it is great. it is a flea collar that lasts for 8 moths that goes into their system. online they go for 40 -48 dollars

9:28 am

MollyL

And from what I've read here, it sounds like it's hard enough just to give them a pill.

9:28 am

crosshair

just walking into a vets and sitting down costs $100.00 lol

9:28 am

suefrad625

and they really work. i take in a lot of strays and my dogs have not gotten fleas yet from them.

9:28 am

MLFAN17

its not something you have to do or anything

9:50 am

Kiani

aha thanks

9:50 am

wvteach

NBT - no blank tiles (letter tiles all have at least one word from them) NBS - no blank stats - each word stat has at least one word

9:51 am

MLFAN17

it just means you got at least one word from all the letters and a word from each word stat

9:51 am

wvteach

gives us a goal to strive for - also people will mark making it halfway

9:51 am

Kiani

yep. I figured it was something like that but couldn't figure out the acronym

9:52 am

that way if you don't "finish" you have met at least some goal along the way

Personally, I've never understood why NBT and NBS are so important. But most people here find it very exciting.

Also Kiani, people here speak in acronyms a lot. If there is ever one you don't understand, just ask. Half the time, I have to look them up. : D

molly not everyone finishes the grid its just a goal to at least get to a point of accomplishment or that they have done enough with certain grids.

2:15 pm

cybernan

a mia farrow, peri?

2:15 pm

periwinkle

this haircut is shorter in the back and more cut in at the bottom. the sides are a bit shorter. the top looks the same. it needs to be colored. the gray is coming in at the temple and it is not flattering

2:16 pm

periwinkle

not quite as short nan

2:16 pm

bichon

I gave up on long hair when my son was born and he learned how to pull it

2:16 pm

periwinkle

2:17 pm

periwinkle

I do have a lovely wig but I have never worn it and am planning on donating it to someone who needs it more than me

2:17 pm

cybernan

I went to all the trouble growing mine out so that I could wear it in a french twist (easier for travelling). It was easier, but also aged me about 10 years, so back to short again :-(

2:17 pm

Kiani

Kiani

westford

2:59 pm

Wolvie

ttfn nan

3:00 pm

Kiani

my regular domain has been having trouble switching hosts.

3:01 pm

MLFAN17

i just heard thunder i might be back

3:02 pm

MollyL

Kiani, I didn't mean anything by asking why you didn't chat. Just curious. : D

3:03 pm

Kiani

:D it's all good

3:03 pm

MollyL

Glad to hear it.

3:04 pm

westford

Kiani just so you are aware when you post a link in chat a backslash n is always added before the .com

3:04 pm

westford

I just take it out

3:04 pm

westford

no idea why it does that

3:05 pm

MollyL

Yes, it's better to transfer your link on tinyurl.com

3:05 pm

Kiani

yeah I noticed that...

3:05 pm

MollyL

The \n (it's actually a front slash) is bad code that Dr. God has not removed from this site.

3:06 pm

Kiani

I should just post it in my profile - ideally wordpress will give up my domain and let me transfer it over to squarespace but right now the sites are not speaking lol

3:06 pm

westford

I'm good today

3:11 pm

MollyL

You are always good, West. : )

3:12 pm

westford

all those hearts and flowers running through my brain

3:13 pm

Kiani

actually you are right on this one west. Sorry Molly but backslash is "\" and forward slash is "/". Just fyi.

3:25 pm

Kiani

:( I killed chat

3:26 pm

Wolvie

no you didnt Kiani. this just happens sometimes lol- various and sundry reasons.

3:29 pm

Kiani

just lots of intense babbling, perhaps . lol

3:29 pm

ChrissieDee

Most of the UK is probably watching the football

3:29 pm

ChrissieDee

England v Uraquay

3:30 pm

Wolvie

hi Chrissi :-)

3:30 pm

Wolvie

e even- sorry :-)

3:30 pm

ChrissieDee

Hi Wolvie

3:31 pm

ChrissieDee

I'm not a football fan, plus we're losing. No surprise there!

3:32 pm

Wolvie

I am not much of a UK football fan - learning. :-)

3:34 pm

Dippnall

oh no we're not!

3:34 pm

Soodle

Game on again, Chrissie! 1 -1.

3:35 pm

Wolvie

hi dip and soodle :-) like the sounds of that pair lol

3:35 pm

ChrissieDee

Thanks guys, turning the tv over :)

3:35 pm

Dippnall

3:36 pm

Soodle

I prefer Soodle & Dip. Sounds tasty. Lol

3:36 pm

Wolvie

3:37 pm

ChrissieDee

With a nice glass of wine? :)

3:37 pm

Wolvie

3:37 pm

Dippnall

Soodle

3:39 pm

Wolvie

hahaha- have to write down the recipe for it tho ;-)

3:40 pm

Soodle

Take one large (!) Soodle...

3:40 pm

Wolvie

3:40 pm

ChrissieDee

Dippnall

looking at tele through fingers.....

3:45 pm

ChrissieDee

Breath Dipp, breath

3:51 pm

ChrissieDee

We've got some lovely football mad neighbours. Flags up in the garden for all international games. When we lose the flags come down as soon as the final whistle blows. Guess that could be soon :(

3:53 pm

Wolvie

ouchies.

3:53 pm

ChrissieDee

3:54 pm

Dippnall

3:59 pm

Wolvie

3:59 pm

MollyL

We are crazy go nuts football mad in these United States. But I think you all are talking about soccer.

4:00 pm

Wolvie

:D ttfn to all

4:02 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Soodle. Do tell me what flavour you are

4:02 pm

MollyL

I think Soodle has left the building.

4:05 pm

jaxx7

never mind, molly. You are right, the World cup is all about soccer and we English have forgotten how to play it well.

4:06 pm

Jillyjill

Hello babbleworld!

4:06 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Jilly

4:09 pm

Bugsaw

Hello friends. Nice to see you jaxx

4:10 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Bugs. You will never guess what but the Social Services cancelled the appointment as they had a child protection emergency.

4:11 pm

Bugsaw

YAY! I had a feeling they were just doing their duty but were not really concerned. I am so glad for all of you - especially the young one.

4:12 pm

MollyL

Jaxx, does that mean you are off the hook regarding their concerns about your grandson?

4:13 pm

jaxx7

He is not very well tonight. He was sent home from school with a high temperature. He has a cut on his thumb and I think it is infected so it is off to the local A&E tomorrow.

4:13 pm

Bugsaw

poor guy

4:15 pm

jaxx7

Molly, they have sent an educational psychologist to see him and he cancelled too. In an ironic turn of events, Ash was awarded a prize for making great progress at school. He can choose a day out with his peers.

4:16 pm

MollyL

So all the people who were concerned about the original problems are not concerned anymore?

4:16 pm

Bugsaw

Well done for him! Great progress at school is a terrific indicator of success.

4:16 pm

jaxx7

It seems that in a fortnight he has gone from a matter of concern to a star pupil. Beggars belief really. he's the same child.

4:17 pm

jaxx7

It loos that way, molly. Better if they worried about those children who do have problems

4:18 pm

Bugsaw

I wonder if clearing out some of the extra stuff at the house helped too? I know I alwasy feel better when things are not so cluttered.

4:19 pm

jaxx7

Possibly, Bugs. I don't know why they suddenly backtracked but then I couldn't see what the problem was in the first place. I do know it upset me.

4:19 pm

Bugsaw

Holding things for relatives who are slow to collect them is not fair.

4:23 pm

jaxx7

I went to my sister's 65th birthday party last weekend. It was not a success. We have such different mindsets and she will start crying whenever she feels things aren't going her way. It turns out that she has sold the more valuable items she was left so I now intend to get rid of the rest ASAP

4:24 pm

Bugsaw

You need to do what will make you and your immediate family happier jaxx and I am glad you can now do that without guilt. Just keep a few of the most meaningful things that remind you of your loved ones instead of all of them. It works.

4:26 pm

jaxx7

One of the things my mother left was a beautiful fur cape. It now has a new home with the costume designers who dress Downton Abbey so look out for it.

4:26 pm

Jillyjill

Gotta run a quick errand...bbs

4:27 pm

jaxx7

I have got the most gruesome fox cape complete with dangling legs and claws - ugh. I just know that no-one else will want it.

4:27 pm

Bugsaw

How exciting jaxx. That show has so much influence and so many people appreciate the costumes.

4:28 pm

jaxx7

My sister was quick enough to sell that fur.

4:28 pm

MollyL

Oh gee, it sounds like your sister is sad.

4:30 pm

Bugsaw

You are right Molly. Sadness and grief can bring out the worst in some people.

4:30 pm

jaxx7

I think she is, molly, but she has a husband who is a most unpleasant man and it is he who has put them in their current state

4:34 pm

MollyL

Wow

4:35 pm

jaxx7

Does the name Pilkington mean anything to you?

4:38 pm

MollyL

I've experienced sadness and grief, losing my parents and losing my husband. I never felt like it brought out the worst in me.

4:40 pm

jaxx7

I don't think it has brought out the worst in my sister either.

4:44 pm

jaxx7

She lost her financial prop when my mum died and that has altered her outlook.

4:46 pm

jaxx7

Last weekend was an eyeopener for me and that ends that.

4:47 pm

jaxx7

Does anyone have a clue for the id 9, please

4:53 pm

montreal13

i + finished + Anniebrook lives in New York C***

5:06 pm

Jillyjill

hmmm, still trying

5:07 pm

montreal13

na4/4 and no4/4...

5:09 pm

MollyL

I thought the bread had two vowels in it. The na4 I have is plural of a grandma word.

5:09 pm

Jillyjill

so far every na and no 4 I have comes from the top one...*sigh*

5:10 pm

Jillyjill

yay! feeling stupid, but I got it TY all

5:10 pm

montreal13

ok molly, thought that na4 was sp. of breads...my bad...

5:11 pm

MollyL

Your guess is as good as mine, with all the odd words in these grids.

5:12 pm

montreal13

true enough... today's ID9 is a fine example...

5:14 pm

MollyL

Indeed

5:14 pm

Jillyjill

LOL..of course, I found THAT one, just didn't see the simple no4!

5:14 pm

MollyL

Oh, of course!

5:14 pm

jaxx7

you mean you weren't around in the 17th century? :)

5:14 pm

montreal13

ID8 even... "sigh"

5:15 pm

MollyL

No, I missed that one in my past lives.

5:15 pm

montreal13

i AM getting on in years...but not that much...

5:16 pm

jaxx7

You have past lives? please spill

5:16 pm

MollyL

*Lips sealed*

5:16 pm

montreal13

"loose lips..."

5:17 pm

jaxx7

Anything of real historical impact?

5:19 pm

jaxx7

One of my friends believes she was Nefertiti after a chaotic visit to Egypt

5:20 pm

Jillyjill

definitly feeling an7/40 with this grid ;)

5:21 pm

montreal13

lol

5:21 pm

jaxx7

clever!

5:21 pm

Jillyjill

see, sometimes I can read to the left!

5:22 pm

jaxx7

I never doubted you for a second!

5:23 pm

montreal13

FW! - last word IR6

5:23 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT montreal13!!!

5:24 pm

Jillyjill

5:32 pm

MollyL

Tsk, tsk, all this fake poofing.

5:33 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...some of us leave without notice *looks around innocently*

5:34 pm

MollyL

Didn't know "notice" was required.

5:34 pm

Jillyjill

Nothing is required in babbleworld!

5:35 pm

MollyL

Oh good!!!!

5:38 pm

Jillyjill

Wow, lots of rer endings I haven't seen before...

5:40 pm

Jillyjill

Oh how I miss the beach!

5:44 pm

penquis

ah...too bad...i don't really swim.....but the beach at the ocean here is beautiful, a cove with big rock ledging on both sides...and close by...

5:46 pm

jaxx7

I have been watching tennis at Eastbourne today. Saw two young upcoming American lasses fighting it out. Love tennis but can no longer play, sadly

5:46 pm

Glad you had a nice time at the beach, Pen!!!!

5:47 pm

penquis

5:47 pm

penquis

too bad jaxx....i am playing as often as i can because i don't know how long i will be able to play...

5:47 pm

Jillyjill

I lived for one summer in a duplex that sat above a cove like that! My favorite times though, was walking along the beach in the fog

5:48 pm

Jillyjill

Oh to be 19 again!

5:48 pm

penquis

yes, i love walking the beach, too....always looking for sea glass...

5:49 pm

MollyL

You're welcome Pen!!

Falling down an uncovered drain stopped my playing days. The left ankle swells while you look at it these days.

5:52 pm

penquis
