1:15 am

grannyrose

g'day saanichcat xxx

1:15 am

Lizlin

Hopefully it'll help once the tenderness wears off.

1:16 am

grannyrose

i am sure it will. i'm starting to wind up inside because of friday. and it's no use telling me not to worry, i can't help it.

1:17 am

Lizlin

Of course you'd be worried - I wouldn't believe you if you said you weren't. I just hope you get what you deserve.

1:17 am

grannyrose

thanx liz girl.

1:20 am

Lizlin

Not what Lexi wants ;)

1:21 am

saanichcat

I share your sentiments then!

1:21 am

lexi

tried adjusting sensitivity but nothing works.

1:21 am

sprite

good morning all

1:21 am

lexi

1:21 am

Lizlin

Hi sprite

1:22 am

1:22 am

Lizlin

Hugs from both of us too :)

1:22 am

{{hugs}} sprite. how are you dear one?

1:22 am

sprite

1:23 am

sprite

thanks Liz :)

1:23 am

saanichcat

tahnks liz!

1:24 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Not a great night, am a little bit shaken. But otherwise good. How was your day?

1:24 am

lexi

hey sprite :)

1:24 am

Lizlin

Too many re words!!!!

1:25 am

Lizlin

Sorry to read that, Sprite - hoped that nights were improving.

1:25 am

grannyrose

had physio, so still a little sore. otherwise a good day, i think.

1:25 am

sprite

me too, Liz... seems it is on and off at the moment. Yesterday night was great :)

1:26 am

sprite

*healing vibes to the sore muscles and all*

1:26 am

Lizlin

So hopefully tonight will be great too

1:26 am

grannyrose

did you both receive an email from our pugs?

1:26 am

sprite

yes I did

1:26 am

Lizlin

Yes - but I haven't answered yet.

1:26 am

grannyrose

* healing prayers for the head which won't turn off*

1:27 am

Lizlin

Cheek of W to ask if he could come back!!!

1:27 am

grannyrose

ditto. she didn't say how often she could go to her sister's. what a joke about W wanting to move back in.

1:27 am

sprite

the guy has a nerve. Good for our pugs to tell him no way!

1:27 am

grannyrose

lol, snap liz

1:28 am

Lizlin

She's so much stronger than she was :)

1:28 am

sprite

isn't she! It radiates from the email!

1:28 am

Lizlin

I thought she sounded good.

1:29 am

grannyrose

yes, and good news of her sister being actually voluntarily involved with things.

1:30 am

Lizlin

Yes - I was shocked (but perhaps not surprised) when I read that W was probably giving her stuff that knocked her sugar out.

1:30 am

sprite

yes it is. That lousy so-and-so out of the house made her so much better.

1:31 am

grannyrose

poor pugs, what an uphill battle for her. but i think she about to hit cruise control. things are finally going right for her in many ways.

1:31 am

sprite

am ever so glad. She deserves it.

1:31 am

Lizlin

Hope so - let's hope the op goes smoothly for her as an outpatient - then cruise control it should be :)

1:32 am

grannyrose

it's still 3 weeks away, i am hoping it doesn't strangulate again. that was scary the last time.

1:33 am

grannyrose

she is using an abdominal binder to help hold her hernia in. at least i hope she is still using it.

1:34 am

Lizlin

Well, I'm not medic, but hoping that less stress for her will make that less likely. Go on Rose - tell me that stress has nothing to do with it.

1:34 am

Lizlin

Write to her and tell her to continue using it!

1:34 am

sprite

knowing her, she is, rose

1:35 am

grannyrose

*biting tongue* ... ouch!! kiss it better, please...lol

1:35 am

Lizlin

I'll leave that to Don

1:36 am

sprite

Just stick it out please *lifts Terra*

1:36 am

grannyrose

roflol....no need to ask him....

1:36 am

Lizlin

I suspect you'd prefer that anyway

1:38 am

Lizlin

Does the he 7 follow from the 3 words before it?

1:38 am

sprite

how come ru is quiet all of a sudden?

1:38 am

grannyrose

no liz.

1:39 am

Lizlin

OK

1:39 am

grannyrose

he's logged out, sprite

1:39 am

sprite

awwww... you don't think cyberbully got to him, do you? About me I mean?

1:40 am

grannyrose

he7, a highly cultured courtesan or concubine, especially in ancient greece

1:41 am

sprite

ah, alternate spelling of the courtisan!

1:41 am

Lizlin

Ah yes! Thanks, Forgot that word.

1:41 am

grannyrose

i shouldn't think so sprite. he's still talking to me, and cyber bully has been very industrious.

1:41 am

Lizlin

Ru makes up his own mind, I reckon.

1:41 am

sprite

ah good. I'll drop our ru a line then.

1:42 am

Lizlin

16 left but I've got to go for now. Good to have caught up with you both. Hugs

1:42 am

sprite

bye Liz, hugs for you both!

1:42 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} liz

1:44 am

grannyrose

crossy was telling me the other day about how vitriolic it has been. i really don't know where it is dredging stuff up from as i have tried to be as circumspect as possible in all i have ever written to it.

1:46 am

sprite

rose, everything one writes can be taken out of context and turned into something nasty. And edited too, I am afraid. I know how positive you are and how you even know something nice to say about the cyberbully himself. So don't worry too much, it isn't you and the people worth their salt know you are not how he/she/it portraits you.

1:49 am

grannyrose

thanx dear heart...which btw is my phantom today. interesting to know that. i think it got under it's skin when i wouldn't join in the vitriol about other players. even when i said it was okay for it to feel that way, it still would carry on like a pork chop.

1:51 am

sprite

I know. That is why I had to cut off exchanging emails with it. Always spitting vitriol to other babblers. And actually thinking I would like that because I had a bump-in with someone someday.

1:51 am

sprite

heart was my first phantom too today

1:52 am

saanichcat

sprite you are very wise, sage-like. My compliments. If we are talking about the same "it" I always turn the chat off.

1:53 am

grannyrose

poor lost little thing, it is.

1:53 am

saanichcat

and, so to bed, goodnight babble friends!

1:53 am

sprite

I can imagine, saan *hugs* And thank you for the very kind words.

1:53 am

grannyrose

sleep well saanichcat

1:53 am

sprite

night night, saan, sleep well and nice dreams :)

1:54 am

sprite

not lost enough

1:54 am

saanichcat

Thanks allxoxo

1:55 am

grannyrose

*giggle* sprite

1:55 am

sprite

;) How is the renovation coming along, rose?

1:57 am

grannyrose

stalled at the moment....now there's a surprise...lol...i think he is too worried about me. i re-start hydro tomorrow which should help things to move again.

1:57 am

sprite

ah good. Yeah, could very well be that his worries about you make it hard for him to focus on something else. He is such a loving man.

1:57 am

grannyrose

we are moving stuff out of the laundry and off that wall in the kitchen. i think he is about to break-through.

1:58 am

sprite

oh lol! So rewarding, that. And so messy.

2:02 am

flosey

back again, took a bit of break

2:02 am

sprite

wb flosey!

2:03 am

flosey

is this "it" person someone I should know?

2:03 am

sprite

I don't know, flosey. It is the cyberbully that sent rose all that bad stuff.

2:03 am

flosey

no idea

2:03 am

grannyrose

g'day flosey. yes you do know it.

2:04 am

flosey

from UK

2:04 am

sprite

that one

2:04 am

grannyrose

it's okay, flosey. i don't want everyone taking "sides".

2:04 am

flosey

hasn't been around in a while?

2:04 am

sprite

is around and spewing vitriol again, alas

2:05 am

flosey

have even forgotten the name

2:05 am

grannyrose

not from the UK, fromthe US of A

2:05 am

flosey

oh dear

2:05 am

flosey

ok, I could guess

2:05 am

sprite

I think that is a good thing, grin. Let's forget and move on.

2:05 am

flosey

yes indeed, Sprite

2:07 am

flosey

enjoy the many friendly players

2:07 am

sprite

of which there are more at babble than at the average site/community, for sure.

2:08 am

flosey

only other site I visit is Bridge Base Online

2:08 am

sprite

how have you been, flosey?

2:09 am

flosey

keeping well thanks Sprite

2:09 am

flosey

and how are you doing?

2:10 am

sprite

good to hear, flosey. I am fine. And so is my family. Things are peaceful here.

2:10 am

flosey

wonderful, sprite

2:11 am

sprite

am very grateful for it. We weathered some stormy times.

2:12 am

flosey

yes and so good to have come through them, sprite

2:12 am

sprite

isn't it? Makes it all worthwhile.

2:12 am

flosey

I believe they make up stronger

2:13 am

sprite

yes I think so too.

2:15 am

sprite

stronger, and better able to understand other people who are in similar circumstances. I find I am becoming milder in my dotage.

2:16 am

grannyrose

*snorts into glass* that'll be the day..you wouldn't be sprite if you stopped being fiery and assertive.

2:17 am

flosey

but I do think we mellow in our later years, I'd like to think

2:18 am

sprite

*giggles* But I was much worse before, rose.

2:18 am

grannyrose

i think we become more tolerant and understanding. able to walk a mile in the other person's shoes.

2:18 am

sprite

yes, I think so too, flosey. Either that, or we become inflexible and judgmental.

2:19 am

flosey

yes, agree rose

2:19 am

grannyrose

you mean a stick-in-the-mud, sprite

2:19 am

sprite

sounds about right

2:20 am

grannyrose

like don....he says the most outrageous things, like you can only have a cup of tea with a fruit bun.

2:20 am

sprite

roflol! And you prove him wrong every time?

2:20 am

flosey

lol, I always like to have something with my tea

2:21 am

flosey

preferably a sweet

2:21 am

grannyrose

of course i do...ever so subtly of course...not...lol

2:21 am

sprite

my grandparents, who I loved so very much, were a little like that in the end. Very set in their ways and opinions. Very judgemental. But beautiful and mellow in other ways.

2:22 am

grannyrose

i mean it's hard to be subtle when you are roaring with laughter.

2:22 am

sprite

hehehe I know your subtlety, rose :D

2:22 am

flosey

that's a good way to deal with some folk, rose

2:22 am

flosey

it sets them back on their heels

2:23 am

sprite

we laugh a lot here, about ourselves and eachother. It relativates things so very nicely.

2:24 am

sprite

how odd... never ever does enable allow a person-who ending after a re- word. And now it does. Goes to show you just never know with enable.

2:24 am

grannyrose

like this morning, going out to physio in my little car. don nudged me as he was putting on his seat-belt. i nudged him back....we both cracked up. he said..please don't ever grow up.

2:25 am

sprite

yeah exactly :D Could have been Rob and me, just like that.

2:25 am

flosey

great way to start the morning, rose

2:26 am

sprite

growing up is highly overrated, in this respect anyway

2:26 am

grannyrose

as one of the motorbike clubs say in their motto, getting old is certain, growing up is optional.

2:26 am

sprite

oh I like that

2:27 am

grannyrose

and on their patch.....growing old disgracefully.

2:27 am

flosey

lol, love it

2:28 am

flosey

or ungracefully

2:28 am

sprite

love it

2:28 am

flosey

what woman can look graceful on a motorcycle

2:29 am

sprite

one that wears pants

2:29 am

grannyrose

no way, flosey.

2:29 am

flosey

lol, hopefully!!

2:29 am

sprite

fireflies

2:29 am

flosey

wtg sprite

2:29 am

grannyrose

who wants to be graceful on the back of a motorcycle.

2:29 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!!

2:30 am

sprite

thank you :) For both of you a warm *hug* and lots of love. And to you all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.

2:30 am

flosey

I had to sit on sil's motorcycle so he could take a picture - I really hate the things

2:30 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} dear friend. hope your day is kind to you.

2:30 am

flosey

hugs sprite, have a good day

2:30 am

3:56 am

ivesy3

well just found out on facebook that mother was put into a nursing home..gues being a cold hearted bitch is the reason i wasnt told when they were taking her. im very hurt and confused about my feelings rite now

3:57 am

grannyrose

awww ivesy...what a devastating blow! {{hugs}} dear...

3:58 am

grannyrose

that is so nasty and underhand...who made the decision?

3:59 am

ivesy3

we didnt get along all that well, no secret there , but i was just with her sat morn.. my brother and sis in law and prob my sister.. not a word from my sister

4:05 am

grannyrose

ivesy...be strong dear. my mother always treated me as a second ra4 person. despite my qualification as a critical care nurse, and the oldest of 5 siblings, she nominated one of my bro's as her power of attorney, and another as her medical power of attorney.

4:06 am

grannyrose

none of my bro's consulted me or let me know until all her requests were set in " concrete"

4:08 am

ivesy3

same here granny..i was literally the middle child.and once my sister was born i was treated badly. my brother and sister are power of attorney.i tried to overcome how she treated me but when she treated my son like chit that was it.. my brother built an apt on his house for her . i know they did alot for her but it was their decision to have her with them, in spite of everyone telling them it was a bad idea.. i am so confused with my feelings rite now rose.

4:11 am

grannyrose

you poor darling. i know you can rise above this ivesy. just take a deep breath...have a really good cry and rant. then allow yourself to continue to treat her as a aged parent.

4:11 am

grannyrose

ivesy...if you want to contact me, my email addy is in my profile, dear.

4:12 am

ivesy3

thank you rose. you just may get a long email with venting...rite now i need coffee and a smoke...and to smash a few things.. :). thanks for listening

4:13 am

grannyrose

go ahead, ivesy. i can so totally relate to how you are feeling.

4:16 am

yesterday, he was realy nasty after dinner and I said That's your last one" and walked out. He tried calling me in my studio and I hung up. Ultimately, he came all the way downstairs to apologize. NOT ENOUGH!

4:45 am

ugh, ruby...i am so sorry you have to endure this.

4:46 am

rubyfoo

Unfortunately, I have no choice. I signed on for this for better or worse etc" and there's nothing to be done. I would like to be left alone!

Thanks for the early clue for the 10 and 11 (though as I say, I'm only dipping at the moment until lunchtime). I sent my divorce paperwork to the courts today

4:59 am

Almost 6, will be back in a few.

4:59 am

I know of it, of course but never use it much. My mind must of just done a short cut for it.

crossy, did you get the email of the mom song?

5:32 am

crosshair

yes, i did, rose. it was cute.

5:38 am

5:40 am

crosshair

5:47 am

5:48 am

grannyrose

his blond curls are so reminiscent of his daddy. and, yes, that is his daddy to whom he is toddling.

5:49 am

sukee

Hi again

5:49 am

grannyrose

crossy...have you caught up with the laundry yet?

5:54 am

mattygroves

(Sorry for the intermittent nature of my replies) - Rose, it's bittersweet, but it's an amicable divorce, and I have a new man and hubby has a new lady - we're still friends, we just kinda drifted apart during the years. It's as good as it can be!

5:57 am

grannyrose

lucky you, matty. i had a bitter divorce....and up 'til the day of his death, my ex never let me go...much to his new wife's dismay.

6:00 am

grannyrose

matty, on his death bed...my ex called my name, not his wife's name. it is so sad....she deserved better than that.

6:01 am

crosshair

cute little fella, rose. he has lots of curls!

6:02 am

crosshair

I am NEVER caught up with the laundry. It just does not happen. Well, I lie; I think it happened three times last yer:)

6:03 am

grannyrose

6:03 am

sukee

I hate laundry :)

6:04 am

grannyrose

*giggle* crossy

6:04 am

I am hoping for wear-once clothes that we can break down in water when we are done with them and then we can use what is left as dish soap:))

6:04 am

grannyrose

crossy....

6:05 am

crosshair

well, maybe not. We would have lots of neeked people outside whenever it rains!

6:37 am

More like the NY Post- it's supposedly a real newspaper, just alarmist

6:37 am

I think sometimes, like in Bichon's case, it is very cute, but not something I would do all the time.

... many thousands of years ago when I was do a work semester at an insurance company, my supervisor gave me a report to prepare that was forwarded to the president ... not know what I was doing I made a careless mistake on a particular number in the report and sent it the report on ... ... he spotted the error immediately and sent it back with a vociferous complaint ....

9:57 am

12:13 pm

MollyL

Some odd mid-century musical term. Like we would all know that.

12:14 pm

Biltong

ty for the clue, Molly

12:16 pm

MollyL

Thanks Bich, but I read Alan Cumming in The New York Times. He's great. I loved his take on the failed attempt at Scotland's independence. So sad that did not happen.

12:16 pm

bichon

I love the description of his parties after the show

12:18 pm

uusue2

the ne5 word is those big square notes you see in manuscripts of Gregorian chants (yet another piece of trivia that is squeezing actual useful information out of my head)

hello all.

Sue, you apparently have room for lots of things in your head. All that physics stuff, plus the occasional ancient musical thing.

12:21 pm

Jillyjill

hey there phand!

12:22 pm

Biltong

Hello phand

12:22 pm

MollyL

Sorry, but I get a good laugh every time someone says numerate is a phantom. Cheap thrills.

12:23 pm

phandmd

would someone like to give me a clue for the E in the last row?

12:23 pm

phandmd

and why is that, Molly?

12:23 pm

Biltong

em5/12 and em8/45

12:29 pm

phandmd

still thinking on it

12:30 pm

Jillyjill

do you want me to give a stab at a clue?

12:30 pm

MollyL

Wouldn't you say that those who etched a ru4 into ancient stone, ru5? Seems logical to my Pagan soul.

12:31 pm

MollyL

Okay, throws my clue for the 10/11 out the window

12:32 pm

uusue2

ok, I was convinced the re10 was also a phantom. Got it but am still trying to see how it works.

12:32 pm

phandmd

Molly, I am sure it is a brilliant clue, the problem is I am not so brilliant.

12:32 pm

Jillyjill

re+(city government) ***icipal government+vowel+ PG is a movie ***ing, then vowel

12:32 pm

MollyL

Probably needed more hump letters and the like

12:32 pm

uusue2

Ah, there it is! Too many e's and r's in this grid!

12:33 pm

phandmd

thanks, Jilly! They light bulb came on, and now I see just how brilliant Molly's clue was, I am blinded at the moment.

12:35 pm

Jillyjill

Molly always clues better than I do...

12:36 pm

phandmd

Ah, but Jilly, I needed your brilliant clue to illuminate Molly's Brilliant clue!

12:37 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...I'm sorta the dumb blond of clueing...

12:37 pm

phandmd

that makes us 2 peas in a pod, Jilly

12:39 pm

Jillyjill

I'll be happy to have you as company. How's the job going?

12:39 pm

Jillyjill

We have our mandatory Ebola training tomorrow...

12:39 pm

phandmd

It's going well, thank you. I feel like I finally can hone my skills

12:39 pm

MollyL

Oh dear God, the Ebola frenzy continues

12:40 pm

phandmd

Oh, that sounds like fun!

12:40 pm

Jillyjill

Hey...survived AIDS in the Bay Area, nurse and as patient, this'll be a walk down memory lane!

12:42 pm

Jillyjill

I was the only 2 nurses in our home health department that would see AIDS patients.

12:43 pm

phandmd

One of the aids at my facility was all freaked out over the fact that we had a POTENTIAL ebola pt come through Frederick.

12:45 pm

MollyL

Yes, and we were all so at risk for AIDS...not

12:45 pm

Jillyjill

People need to take universal precautions seriously. That was the problem when we moved here in 1989. After being in Bay Area, I was astounded.

12:46 pm

Jillyjill

And Molly, actually health care workers ARE at risk with AIDS.

12:46 pm

phandmd

That is why they are called universal precautions!

12:46 pm

stevedallas

one more a clue for the last te6 pls

12:47 pm

Jillyjill

And Ebola has been since 1976, so it's not the terror everyone is concerned about. Universal precautions.

12:47 pm

MollyL

THE SKY IS FALLING! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

12:49 pm

Biltong

sorry, steve, don't have that te6 yet

12:53 pm

rubyfoo

half and good night

12:54 pm

Jillyjill

Sweet sleeps ruby dear!

12:54 pm

MollyL

Health care workers have been wearing sterile gloves and taking other precautions since the advent of AIDS. AIDS is spread by the exchange of bodily fluids. I'm sorry but this kind of stuff is what makes HIV positive people feel like lepers.

12:56 pm

zoozzoom

TE 6 the length of time an office, position, etc, lasts

12:56 pm

uusue2

te6 = job security for faculty (although I don't know if that's the last te6)

12:57 pm

curi75

Ty. Un

12:58 pm

Jillyjill

Keep in mind despite safety needles, needle sticks are still a risk, and there is no difference in how I treat anyone with a communicable disease whether AIDS, influenza, Clostridium deficile, Hepatitis...one always uses the appropriate precautions. That is what is meant by universal precautions Molly. Wearing what is needed. Keep in mind I work closely with bodily fluids.

Though if you tell me, Annie, you're currently at a funeral I will (a) feel guilty and (b) wonder why you're babbling at a funeral

1:32 pm

hego

Is that a bad thing?

1:33 pm

Anniebrook

why feel guilty about me babbling at a funeral?

1:33 pm

Anniebrook

I've always thought of a funeral or memorial service as a place to respect the one who passed. I guess that is an old fashioned idea in the techo age.

1:44 pm

our wakes consist of having slide shows of our loved one with all different people in the family, with a music background. we laugh, cry and talk about them...mostly we laugh at how we all looked with so many different hair styles

1:53 pm

hego

1:54 pm

2:05 pm

hego

really?

2:06 pm

hego

think arthritis

2:07 pm

mattygroves

Argh. Should have had that. When I was a kid I had arthritis. This is absolutely true. My orthopedist was Dr Bohne. My rh5atologist was Dr Lim

2:07 pm

hego

or rh+++atism

2:07 pm

hego

Matty, that's hilarious!

2:08 pm

mattygroves

I was in the NY Hospital for Special Surgery which, according to a plaque in the lobby, had been called The New York Hospital for the Ruptured and the Crippled

2:08 pm

mattygroves

I can imagine the conversations in the corridors

2:09 pm

hego

I had surgery there last year!

2:09 pm

MollyL

So many amazing stories here

2:09 pm

mattygroves

Oh wow. I've not been for many many years (this is probably a good thing)

2:09 pm

hego

ruptured and crippled! Oh my!

2:10 pm

hego

it is a good thing.

2:10 pm

mattygroves

Yeah. "So, what's wrong with you Fred?" "Well, Norm, I'm ruptured. How about you?"

2:10 pm

hego

haha

2:11 pm

Here , we have what is known as a General and Marine Hospital. It was set up this way for injuries on ship that had to be flown to shore for treatment. it covers things for those not from this country.

2:13 pm

crosshair

We still get Dutch cruise ships here even though the water levels are still off a tad. They have a shallower draft than most.

2:14 pm

hego

You're a long way in Crossy.

2:14 pm

mattygroves

4 Rs left

2:14 pm

hego

mattygroves

All 6s

2:14 pm

They can squeak in here. it is quite interesting to see.

2:15 pm

hego

sixes are the hardest for me.

2:15 pm

crosshair

We had one of the tall ships berthed here last month as well. Do not see those too often either

2:15 pm

mattygroves

Yeah - all RE6s

2:16 pm

hego

Yikes!!

2:16 pm

mattygroves

I have the one to warm again, having once leased something and to go in again

2:18 pm

mattygroves

And to employ someone again

2:18 pm

hego

empty someone?

2:18 pm

mattygroves

And to run into someone again

2:19 pm

hego

you are being very helpful, Matty.

2:19 pm

mattygroves

Hmmm...empty someone?

2:19 pm

mattygroves

(Hope I'm not giving too much away - tell me to shut up if so)

2:20 pm

hego

no problem

2:21 pm

mattygroves

One left - the last re6....and 5 minutes

2:22 pm

crosshair

2:22 pm

MollyL

GASP!

2:22 pm

mattygroves

Yep. I'm missing the very, very last one

2:22 pm

2:25 pm

2:25 pm

2:25 pm

crosshair

2:26 pm

hego

2:34 pm

crosshair

An honest-to-goodness pub with good beer and music that is not just a wailing shriek at 140 db, but good pub music would be a grand thing.

2:35 pm

hego

2:40 pm

MollyL

2:41 pm

hego

Oh yes, saw it on FB.

2:42 pm

bichon

Kummerspeck

2:42 pm

Judi

Thanks. I thought it was rather hilarious. Grief Bacon. That's one depressed pig.

2:42 pm

bichon

jIt's on Judi's icon

2:42 pm

hego

I have lots of that stuff!

2:42 pm

Judi

Strange, because bacon usually cheers me up.

2:43 pm

MollyL

Shame, nothing is new here. It's all been seen and talked about on Facebook.

2:43 pm

hego

:)

2:43 pm

hego

Speck isn't actually bacon though.

2:43 pm

Judi

Okay you crazy kids. I'm done here. See y'all tomorrow!

2:44 pm

hego

Just similar.

2:44 pm

hego

Good stuff.

2:44 pm

hego

bye Judi

2:44 pm

bichon

Yes, it more like lard

2:46 pm

MollyL

Judi, it's grief fat. Oh well.

3:42 pm

car.eeyore

Hello again

3:46 pm

car.eeyore

If AZ 5 is a noun, how can it be P/T for the 6? Doesn't make any sense to me.

3:48 pm

westford

hi car thanks for the az's

3:48 pm

curi75

AZ huh?

3:48 pm

car.eeyore

Hi westford...glad to help

3:48 pm

MollyL

You are still trying to make sense of this? *Passes Car a drink*

3:48 pm

westford

I really wanted wazoo

3:49 pm

car.eeyore

Thank you, Molly

3:50 pm

westford

hello molly and curi

3:51 pm

MollyL

Just sip your drink and type in random, meaningless words. It will all be just fine.

3:51 pm

westford

car are you still on bed rest?

3:52 pm

car.eeyore

That's just what I do

3:52 pm

MollyL

Bed rest???

3:52 pm

westford

as much as she can be

3:52 pm

car.eeyore

Just got up...had initial doc appt and x-ray this morning...mri is pending

3:53 pm

MollyL

Oh Lord, what now?

3:53 pm

car.eeyore

Still me back, dear...nothing else, just can't stand it anymore

3:53 pm

car.eeyore

And from DH's attitude, neither can he apparently

3:54 pm

westford

read in the chat that you asked about sciatica..I had a bout with it years ago..solved the problem by getting rid of my extra big, extra heavy shoulder bag

3:55 pm

westford

probably too simple but it worked

3:55 pm

car.eeyore

I hardly ever carry a purse/bag

3:55 pm

MollyL

No one here seems to be into it, but I highly recommend acupuncture

3:56 pm

car.eeyore

I'm considering it

3:56 pm

car.eeyore

3:57 pm

westford

3:59 pm

jaxx7

4:04 pm

westford

wtg red

4:05 pm

jaxx7

They combine it with exercise so - as you say - no bed rest

4:05 pm

redshoes

didn't look at the stats, so I didn't even know there was a 10 and and 11 until I found the 10. :)

4:14 pm

car.eeyore

Well done redshoes

4:15 pm

MollyL

Wow, I find it hard not to look at that word stats when they are right under the grid.

4:18 pm

car.eeyore

I don't look at them very much at all

4:20 pm

car.eeyore

Fireworks

4:20 pm

car.eeyore

Ty all, have a good night

4:20 pm

westford

Hard to get nbt and nbs when you don't look at the word stats

4:32 pm

gramma

Hey, everybody. How about a clue for those biggies, redshoes?

4:36 pm

Congrats gramma!

4:55 pm

I'm going to take a little rest before dinner. See you all tomorrow.

4:55 pm

westford

bye gramma enjoy !

4:56 pm

tessagram

Every time I begin to enter a word a list appears of all the words I have tried. Is there a way to get rid of this feature?

4:57 pm

westford

no idea tessa unless it's auto correct going bonkers

4:57 pm

tessagram

Could be..

4:58 pm

westford

I think it's finally time to get rid of the summer clothes..I hate this

4:59 pm

westford

I really need a staff

5:02 pm

MollyL

West needs ladies in waiting.

5:02 pm

westford

that's for sure

5:03 pm

westford

I'd like a lady's maid

5:03 pm

MollyL

Tessa is that a regular Babble problem or a Lickety Expert problem?

5:05 pm

westford

Mrs. Patmore has dinner waiting..Hah.

5:10 pm

tessagram

I probably need to go to the expert!

5:30 pm

MollyL

No, Expert is another program. It makes no sense to me that all your words appear in the ADD WORD box. It's not set up to take more than so many characters.

5:30 pm

gremlinn

phantoms: toadeater and meuniere

5:33 pm

tessagram

Actually a list appears above the box after I enter the first couple of letters

5:39 pm

MollyL

There isn't any place for words to appear above the ADD WORD box. Are you sure you are entering your words in the right place? See the ADD WORD box under the grid.

5:45 pm

Good Enough

if you are not using expert, words you have previously typed do show in a dropdown near the add box. Like it trys to anticipate what you are typing.

5:47 pm

tessagram

I see.

5:50 pm

MollyL

I'm confused. This happens in Expert or Regular Babble?

5:50 pm

MollyL

There is no connection between Expert and Babble.

5:50 pm

wasgij5

just coming out of lurking to say that this happens to me when I use my tablet to play.

5:53 pm

jaxx7

Getting better with the meds, thanks. Husband being very attentive - it is almost worth the vertigo. lol
