3:53 am

gapeach

Thanks, zooz, can't get it together....still trying.

3:54 am

zoozzoom

To ride the waves Has a U in it but use a E instead.

3:54 am

gapeach

Thanks, have it now.

3:54 am

zoozzoom

Yw :-)

3:58 am

grannyrose

yoohoo, hello zooz and peach. * waving*

3:58 am

zoozzoom

Cooeee, Rose :-) *waves back*

3:59 am

grannyrose

well g'day, mate. how the devil are you?

3:59 am

zoozzoom

I am well thank you :-) How are you keeping?

4:00 am

4:01 am

grannyrose

peach, dear. how are you?

4:02 am

zoozzoom

You are doing so well now, Rose, Well done!

4:02 am

zoozzoom

lirots

4:02 am

zoozzoom

oops sorry

4:02 am

grannyrose

i know it sounds itsy bitsy...but i was on my feet for the majority of the time.

4:02 am

gapeach

Not too bad. Still some pain, but must keep going.

4:03 am

grannyrose

good for you, sweetie. is the warmer weather helping, peach?

4:03 am

zoozzoom

Still a good amount of time on ones feet.

4:04 am

grannyrose

zooz, how's the mother? is she starting to accept what has happened?

4:04 am

gapeach

It is, Rose. Going to try to get some compression hose....to help with the swelling.

4:04 am

zoozzoom

Yes she has been doing OK since the ashes has been laid to rest.

4:05 am

grannyrose

good idea, peach. i sent some to sprite and she is over the moon with them.

4:06 am

grannyrose

btw, zooz, fang and her hubby are coming over. shall i give her your details...lolol

4:06 am

zoozzoom

Who on earth is fang?

4:07 am

gapeach

May I please have a clue for any 'ne' word? Thanks

4:07 am

grannyrose

*sigh* as my hours increase, i will have to get my compression stockings out of storage. i hate them with a passion, but i have to admit, they are so helpful.

4:08 am

grannyrose

*giggle* zooz, my SIL. she has a mouth on her like you wouldn't believe. when the MIL passed away, she never once offered to help clean up the rooms. and i was 1 week post-op.

4:08 am

zoozzoom

Always best to be careful, Rose.Wear them when the needs must.

4:09 am

zoozzoom

Err in that case, Rose. I thinnk I will pass on that thanks..LOl

4:09 am

grannyrose

ne6, ne + use ***n* to control a horse(the leather straps)

4:10 am

grannyrose

ne5, ne + the ***ling stones, rock band.

4:10 am

grannyrose

np's zooz, i totally understand.

4:10 am

zoozzoom

:-)

4:11 am

zoozzoom

I moan when my friends come round LOL

4:12 am

gapeach

Thanks much, Rose.

4:12 am

grannyrose

* snort * fang always leaves one breathless...with amazement at her audacity.

4:12 am

zoozzoom

To myself that is..When they are hear I am OK then.

4:12 am

zoozzoom

She sounds like a fun person to hang around with NOT.

4:14 am

grannyrose

zooz, she wanted to take half of MIL's ashes to scatter at her birth place, isle of harris. she couldn't be bothered with all the paper work involved, so she was going to put MIL in a plastic bag, and carry her in her(fang's) handbag...lol

4:15 am

zoozzoom

Oh good grief. Getting an idea of what she is like now.Wow.

4:15 am

grannyrose

i guess i should have left it there...but i couldn't live with the idea of fang in customs, trying to explain the plastic bag, and the thought of MIL sitting in a cupboard somewhere until fang came home again.

4:16 am

zoozzoom

No I would of intervened at some stage too.

4:21 am

zoozzoom

Stats for the lone O please?

4:21 am

grannyrose

*giggle* poor don...he couldn't understand why i was so insistent on him following up on what had to be done. after all we had all the paper work needed, we just had to copy it, and have it certified by a JP that it was a true copy. the all fang had to do, was notify the airline that she was taking MIL's ashes in her luggage. it was all very simple, but she just couldn't be bothered. according to her, the rules are for someone else...lol

4:21 am

grannyrose

oi4, sound a pig makes

4:23 am

zoozzoom

Glad you made the arrangements like you said it could of been rather awkward otherwise.

4:23 am

zoozzoom

Geez should of seen that.Thanks, Rose!

4:23 am

grannyrose

that's what i thought

4:24 am

zoozzoom

What did she say after you arranged it?

4:24 am

grannyrose

lol, arrangements, not what you should have seen

4:24 am

zoozzoom

Oh dear..lol

4:25 am

grannyrose

lol...no thanks if that's what you mean. she just takes and takes...and never gives.

4:25 am

zoozzoom

How do other members of the family view her?

4:27 am

grannyrose

don and his brother are alike in how they see her. her sister...not sure....i have to be careful what i say with the sister, she scuttles off and tells all to fang...*sigh* some people just don't know when to shut the hell up.

4:28 am

zoozzoom

Ah we have a member of the family who gossips about others whilst to you is sweet as anything then back stabs you by twisting what you have said. So I understand where you are coming from on that one..lol

4:29 am

zoozzoom

Thankfully I have nothing to do with this distant cousin :-)

4:29 am

grannyrose

it's so sad really. the way this person tries to worm her way into fang's good graces.

4:31 am

zoozzoom

Probably thinks they are missing out on something so feels the need to impress to feel needed. I am not sure.

4:34 am

grannyrose

you're right. this other sister tells me how badly she was treated as a teen and young adult, by both her father and MIL.

4:45 am

zoozzoom

Sorry had phone call..Well I and my other brother and sisters were all badly treated when children by my original father. But I have never gone out my way to mistreat anyone deliberately. In fact I have gone the other way and would rather be on my own lol

4:46 am

zoozzoom

I suppose we all deal with things in different ways.

4:47 am

grannyrose

absolutely, zooz. i have adopted my father's attitude. most times, i just shrug it off, and move on.

4:48 am

crosshair

good morning everyone:)

4:49 am

zoozzoom

Good way to view things, Rose. I am rather sensitive though. If someone says something nasty to me I shrug it off and make out i do not care.But I think about it for days afterwards.

4:49 am

zoozzoom

11:33 am

MLFAN17

how cool

11:33 am

MLFAN17

is authoronomy for stories only?

11:34 am

crosshair

it is for any story you care to write as long as it begins at 10,000 words or more

11:34 am

MLFAN17

wow

11:34 am

crosshair

though try to stay within the short story/novella/ novel number guidlines

11:35 am

crosshair

it is def not for quick Fb entries:)

11:35 am

crosshair

you CAN, however, combine short stories to make up a novel

11:36 am

crosshair

but 10k, is the bare min

11:36 am

MLFAN17

what made you want to try to write a story of that size?

11:38 am

crosshair

I had to write a short story for my English lit class and I got 99% on it and in the teachers comments she asked "what happened next" and I found that while sitting here on the summer break that i could indeed answer her question and make a book of it all.

11:39 am

MLFAN17

cross that is so awesome

11:39 am

crosshair

keep in mind, the average size of a book is around 80,000 words or 350 pages as a rough guide

11:40 am

crosshair

it can be less for young adult genre and if over 100k, they like you to break it up into two books

11:40 am

MLFAN17

i wrote story in elementary school my teacher loved it and tried to convince my parents to get me to continue writing. It was s story about me getting a drink from a faucet of lemonade. i dont have it anymore

11:40 am

crosshair

or if you are Stephen King, you can write telephone books:)

11:41 am

MLFAN17

cross lol no kidding. louisa may alcott's Little Women is prett big though i dont know how many pages it is

11:41 am

crosshair

I find that a story that is worth being told will wait for you and when both you and the story are ready, it will grow.

11:41 am

MLFAN17

You dont mean the book IT do you/:)

11:42 am

crosshair

But being a new author they advise to hit the middle at 350 pages or so

11:42 am

crosshair

11:42 am

crosshair

his

11:44 am

MLFAN17

i get ideas so jumbled i wrote a letter once to a relative years ago and it had several pages. The relative who receieved it was quite confused

11:44 am

crosshair

sent it to the wrong relative i gather?

11:45 am

MLFAN17

no right relative just i think a lot of things were repeated and maybe the pages got mixed up as well

11:45 am

crosshair

ahh. i see:)

11:46 am

crosshair

I cannot believe how many errors i have here in simply in flow and readability issues. been at it two days, corrected about 100 things and added 300 words to the word count as an added bonus!

11:47 am

2:35 pm

bichon

Annie, still raining there?

2:40 pm

Anniebrook

bichon, no, it stopped but very humid

2:42 pm

bichon

humid is not the word for it. i was down cellar where the dehumidifer is running and when I came back upstairs, it hit me

2:42 pm

Anniebrook

and being near the ocean here, it is also very foggy. summer has hit us in the face.

2:43 pm

bichon

Do you like to swim in the ocean. I remember the beach at Cconey Island and the water was pretty calm, not like Rockaway

2:45 pm

Anniebrook

bichon, I dont go swimming in the ocean any more. It is calm but I wouldn't vouch for cleanliness. Walking on the boardwalk is about it these days. The surf at Rockaway now. Beautiful beach there.

2:45 pm

Anniebrook

*they

2:47 pm

bichon

Coney Island's water wasn't the cleanest. I really liked the surf there. I miss the beach. Never got the sand out of my shoes, so to speak. My ideal vacation would be at an ocean beach. We have a beach ten and you can get plenty of shade all day. Swim, read, play Scrabble, nap.

2:47 pm

Anniebrook

My neighborhood has changed drastically. We have the largest Russian population in the US. Russians love the water. Brighton is now called Odessa by the Sea. Public relations. Brings the tourists in.

2:47 pm

bichon

Yes, I'm well aware of that. Are they just Russian Jews or is there a mixture?

2:48 pm

Anniebrook

I would definitely say mixture. Russian Jews are still the majority, though.

2:49 pm

bichon

Just looked at the radar, rain and t'storms should get here around dinner time.

2:49 pm

bichon

Food must be good in the neighborhood

2:50 pm

Anniebrook

If you like Russian food. Im not a big fan but once in a while I will find something that is good. We have 2 beautful Russian supermarkets in the area.

2:52 pm

bichon

It's not my favorite, but I do like Jewish food and good deli. You have to go to Hartford here, the Crown Market, to get good Jewish food

2:52 pm

bichon

I hear thunder

2:53 pm

Anniebrook

Good old fashioned Jewish food and deli is divine. We still have a good deli in the area. Now I want a pastrami on club.

2:53 pm

bichon

What I would give for sable fish

2:54 pm

Anniebrook

The Russian supermarkets have wonderful appetizing sections. Whatever you want they have. I love sable.

2:55 pm

Anniebrook

The have it all. Now I want a sable sandwich on a roll.

2:55 pm

bichon

The Crown Market in Hartford [or is it West Hartford?] was going to close, but people were so upset that a group of investors bought it. Baruch Ha Shem

2:55 pm

Anniebrook

Going to settle for tuna salad. Going to make it now and put it in the fridge to get cold.

2:56 pm

Anniebrook

lol. Baruch Ha Shem.

Visiting England is on my list for late next Spring, though travel's not finalized yet.

The Isle of Wight Walking Festival, specifically the around-the-island walk is of particular interest.

5:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

why won't enable accept tilsit? though, to be fair, it wont accept gouda or edam either.

5:33 pm

ChrissieDee

Wow, sounds like a lit of walking

5:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

phan, where did you have bastille day dinner? my MD friend is here now, we were talking about it.

Bethesda, MD is home to a decent-sized French community.

5:35 pm

hi back again -- struggling with this one

6:07 pm

Aloyisius

hi nan and all.. agree with you, lots of words not easy for me to see

6:10 pm

Aloyisius

down to 47, bbs.. going to switch computers to a quieter place

6:14 pm

cybernan

I'm thinking they are manufactured words

6:17 pm

o-o

Words do not magically appear. Someone put letters together for all of what we now call words.

6:18 pm

Aloyisius

ahh, this is better.. back to the grid.. lol, nan.. and hi there o-o, long time no see.. hope you are well

6:19 pm

cybernan

but not all are real words, o-o

6:21 pm

cybernan

I still think enable is like wikipedia -- anyone can enter data and the ability to spell is not a prerequisite

6:21 pm

o-o

Sure they are. Just because they are unfamiliar does not change their status.

6:21 pm

o-o

You have not done the research about Enable.

6:22 pm

cybernan

all I know is that it accepts words like clipt and dipt --- slang maybe, but not words -- clipped and dipped yes

6:23 pm

o-o

dipt [dipt]
verb
a simple past tense of dip.

6:23 pm

cybernan

a reference like oxford english dictionary or websters would be much better

6:23 pm

cybernan

but not a real word ---- grrrrrrr!

6:24 pm

Aloyisius

if I may interject.. feeling happy that the hours spent working on this old desktop have paid off.. it no longer freezes and I'm able to use it again, hurray..

6:24 pm

cybernan

at least not a real english word and this game is supposed to be in english -- such spellings only indicate ignorance as far as I'm concerned

6:30 pm

cybernan

yay aloy -- that is good news :-)

6:30 pm

o-o

Is philosophunculist a real english word? Its the OED word of the day.

6:31 pm

Aloyisius

have never seen that word, o-o.. funny one.. do you know what it means? someone who thinks about phuncs?

6:32 pm

o-o

n.
1840
A petty or insignificant philosopher.

6:33 pm

Aloyisius

ahh, happy to know that..

6:33 pm

cybernan

not something I'm likely to use!

6:34 pm

Aloyisius

I know some people like that.. lol

6:34 pm

Aloyisius

rats, resoil is no good.. I mean you can go out and get dirty again

6:36 pm

o-o

clay, sand and loam.

6:37 pm

Aloyisius

I'll take loam, ty..

6:37 pm

cybernan

tr 8-9 combo -- not coming up with anything

6:37 pm

o-o

the resoiling of my back yard

6:38 pm

Aloyisius

just add not heavy to the set of three, nan

6:38 pm

Aloyisius

do you garden, o-o?

6:39 pm

o-o

not anymoe

6:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

aloy, i tried your clue, no dice.

6:39 pm

cybernan

tried that aloy - didn't like it

6:40 pm

Aloyisius

I know, we don't either, as much as we love it.. joined an organic farm group in Fla... go every wednesday .. and here in Ohio, the gardens are all overgrown, sigh

6:41 pm

Aloyisius

ok, not duo + buy a bottle of 2 ****r Coke

6:41 pm

doseffing

... you won't like it nan ... use the french three without the last letter ...

6:41 pm

cybernan

that doesn't work aloy

6:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

got the clue but it does not woek

6:43 pm

cybernan

doesn't like that either, dos

6:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

i mean, we understand, it does not woek. but ty

6:43 pm

doseffing

... it liked it on mine

6:43 pm

cybernan

fr. 3 = trois

6:43 pm

dianedecoder

doseffing's clue works

6:43 pm

doseffing

... not without the last letter

6:43 pm

Aloyisius

The kingston Tr** + a 2 ****r bottle of pop

6:44 pm

doseffing

... you've got the vowels in the wrong order

6:44 pm

cybernan

ok - got it, ty

6:44 pm

dianedecoder

only doseffing's works....

6:44 pm

cybernan

was trying trio for the 3

6:44 pm

Aloyisius

oops.. now I see that doseffing.. ugh, sorry

6:44 pm

cybernan

then the french 3

6:44 pm

cybernan

neither of which worked

6:45 pm

doseffing

... yeah ... that was my third three ... it took me four threes to get the correct one

6:45 pm

cybernan

sounds like some kind of creature from star trek!

6:45 pm

Aloyisius

going to the pb for giving a rotten clue

6:46 pm

cybernan

no rotten clues -- we just get confused sometimes

6:46 pm

doseffing

... hey ... who wants easy clues? ... you gotta leave some challenge

6:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am bored with this grid, with 64 left

6:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

no one goes to pb for cluing

6:48 pm

cybernan

6:51 pm

hello to everyone here. I have been in and out all day but never stay long because we don't have airconditioning on the coast and I droop in the heat

6:52 pm

YAY stid!! Now the trick is to not allow things to pile up again. Good thing Mr. bugs is not there.

6:52 pm

stidmama

I am procrastinating... two interviews Thursday and SO tired of thinking about 4th grade math (need to do a mini-lesson) and reviewing standards for middle school social studies... *sigh* is it worth starting this grid?

6:53 pm

doseffing

... no fourth grade words here today

6:53 pm

Bugsaw

It was fun and easy for a long time but then it becomes tedious. Just depends on how much you want to shift brain cells from job interviews, but I an SO glad you have them.

6:53 pm

Aloyisius

stid, aren't you on summer vacation? geez

6:54 pm

rofl... I use the dining table as a staging area for unpacking the boxes of soot-covered items. But in-laws coming Thursday and want to have the main living areas as clutter-free as possible. I have put the items that I am still cleaning or need to remember/replace in boxes stacked neatly in an alcove and will continue to pick through them as the summer goes on. :-)

... it is sometimes good to do what you want to do rather than what you must do ... ... but more often as a teacher you'll want them to do what they must do rather than what they'd like to do

6:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

do not begin if you are the type that has to finish

6:54 pm

stidmama

I think I have a really great chance at the one school, not sure about the other. But would really like/enjoy/do well with either position, so trying to go for broke.

6:55 pm

stidmama

I no longer have to finish, TO -- LOL grad school fixed that!

6:55 pm

Aloyisius

I gave up while I was teaching

6:55 pm

Bugsaw

You know you will do well with any age stid because ALL kids are fascinated by new stuff that comes with a great presentation

6:56 pm

stidmama

doseffing, that is SO true -- I told my 8th graders last year many times that I knew what I had just assigned wasn't likely to be what they really enjoyed, but that I believed it would benefit them both now and in later years. They appreciated my honesty, if they didn't enjoy the work!

6:56 pm

Bugsaw

Believe in yourself and know that you will add nothing but good stuff to any school you work in and let that show in the interview.

6:58 pm

stidmama

And summer vacation started a few weeks ago aloyisius, but of course I was sick the first two weeks! *sigh* I was only sick enough to call a sub once the entire year, but it sure "got me" on the way out.

6:58 pm

stidmama

Thanks bugs -- that's my plan: Dazzle them with my amazing awesomeness!

6:59 pm

Bugsaw

I always got sick during Christmas and Spring breaks. There is no justice for hardworking people.

6:59 pm

Aloyisius

ohh.. I hear you.. wishing you the best .. what grade would you most like to teach?

7:00 pm

stidmama

Well, I have myself convinced that I belong in middle school because I find kids at that age interesting and I can (usually) cope really well with the petty annoyances (and they need people like me who aren't related, but who appreciate them as persons).

7:01 pm

stidmama

But 4th graders are pretty wonderful, and I know that if I get that job I will be spoiled and never want to teach anything else again. :-)

7:01 pm

Aloyisius

you are an angel - middle school is SO challenging!

7:01 pm

stidmama

I have more current experience with the middle schoolers, though, so I feel more confident about stepping into a classroom and taking charge.

7:01 pm

Bugsaw

I love the story of your name Aloyisius. Hundreds of years ago when my father taught grade 5 he had a student with that name and had no idea how to pronounce it. He was very embarassed but it became the name of the unknown person who moved things so we couldn't find them.

7:03 pm

Aloyisius

aw, thanks Bugsaw.. it is totally a true story.. but, "moved things so we couldn't find them" ?

7:03 pm

Bugsaw

Elementary doesn't have the same level of drama as middle school does though. It could be a welcome break every few years.

7:04 pm

stidmama

I want to be one of the teachers who gets to know an age range really well, bugs -- so I can focus my energy on refining the tech I use and the types of projects we do rather than always trying to catch up with new curriculum.

7:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

i would love clues for the en words pls?

That is a good idea too. It would make teaching more challenging in other ways.

just reading the chat -- don't know how stid puts up with middle school kids -- don't have the patience and never did! Now, on the other hand, grade 4 was wonderfully satisfying - as a teacher you had one year to get them from spoon fed babies to students who know how to do their own research.
