12:44 am
rururocks

these 49 word grids just suck the life out of me :D
12:45 am
Nef

12:46 am
Nef

they are either little buggers that no one solves or so easy that I finish too fast
12:47 am
rururocks

12:48 am
Nef

No; I just got here 10 minutes ago but am now nearly half way

hootowl

I think youre being gamed.
1:06 am
hootowl

And I don't know how he can FIND a word fast enought to enter it
1:06 am
rururocks

I dont know. He doesnt play that often
1:07 am
rururocks

I think he used to be maniacmitch
1:10 am
rururocks

It is possible
1:11 am
rururocks

I was at 43 in 5..took me 8 minutes to find the others
1:11 am
hootowl

I just went into the 500's and nothing....I don't really care but a lot of people will be upset and the grandstanding!
1:12 am
rururocks

It doesnt bother me. I think he is just super bright
1:12 am
hootowl

And I can accept it from you because you do it every day and know all the ins & outs. How can he do that when he isn't a regular?
1:13 am
hootowl

Anyway, I'm dropping it. Just wondered.
1:13 am

takes a lot of patience, doing this grid on a phone, I bet :)
1:54 am
sprite

am glad you slept well. And the poor body?
1:54 am
grannyrose

it's actually not to bad, surprisingly.
1:55 am
sprite

it is so touching to see terra needs me close by. When I move, he opens his eyes and checks if I am still where he wants me to be.
1:55 am
sprite

wow awesome, rose! You did very well :D
1:55 am
grannyrose

awww, bless him
1:56 am
grannyrose

i did take it very easy in the pool. worked in water up to my chin.
1:56 am
sprite

wise decision, rose. This way it could benefit you, in stead of making you miserable for days.
1:57 am
grannyrose

physio agrees that i should remain in the deeper water for a few more weeks. i start with 1/2 weights next week.
1:58 am
sprite

wow awesome. Good progress there.
1:58 am
grannyrose

and she is going to encourage don to get in the pool as well. he needs it for his lower back.
1:58 am
sprite

oh, smart thinking.
2:01 am

top two rows greyed out *smug*
2:02 am

yay you sprite
2:02 am
sprite

lol, yeah right. Tricky little bugger, this grid
2:03 am
grannyrose

k's are easy
2:03 am
sprite

yeah, got them right away. Didn't even nag about them today.
2:09 am
sprite

phoned my love... terra wasn't very chipper early this morning either, but was eager to eat. So that is a good thing.
2:15 am
grannyrose

sorry sweetie. good that Terra is eating.
2:15 am
Lizlin

Just thought I'd come back here for a few minutes and say hi and hugs :)
2:15 am
Lizlin

Sorry to read that Terra's not too well :(
2:15 am

don was working on my laptop. every time i open a new program, the sound turns itself on.
2:15 am

oh rose, all those squirrels, lol
2:15 am

hi {{hugs}} liz girl
2:16 am
sprite

hey Liz! A big *hug* for you and for your husband :) I hope you are both fine.
2:16 am
Lizlin

We're fine - as ever! Hope all's good with both of you and your families.
2:16 am
sprite

yeah poor terra was attacked by two terriers yesterday, Liz. So sad. Nothing broken and no open wounds, thank God. But hurting badly allover.
2:17 am
Lizlin

Excitement! It actually poured for about 15 minutes.
2:17 am
Lizlin

Ooooh! Poor Terra. Bad terriers!
2:17 am
sprite

love to hear you are doing well, Liz :) Yes, I and mine are fine. Sons is having some attitude problems atm, but nothing major. All the rest is good!
2:17 am
sprite

roflol @ excitement!
2:18 am
Lizlin

Boys and their attitudes - hope he hurries up and gets over himself!
2:18 am
Lizlin

We've had so little rain over the past 18 months - the ground is desperate for rain.
2:18 am
sprite

oh dear... then 15 mins isn't going to make much of a difference, I fear.
2:19 am
grannyrose

problem it will run straight off, liz. what you need is a couple of days of drizzle only, which can soak into the ground.
2:19 am
sprite

ain't that the truth. And of course, easy-going caya is the one seriously considering moving out when starting at the university. And troublemaker Tim wants to study from home...
2:20 am
Lizlin

it helps - it really did pour - thunder and lightning too! Never really get drizzle here! It either rains or it doesn't. Sometimes it pours for about 30 secs. it's very weird.
2:20 am
Lizlin

That doesn't surprise me - she's the mature one - ready to spread her wings!
2:20 am
sprite

*programs rain to drizzle*
2:21 am
Lizlin

No, preferably not! Except possibly at night! Funny how the sky was so blue this am - perfect beach walking weather!
2:21 am
grannyrose

* doing indian rain dance*
2:21 am
sprite

too true, Liz! She is all enthusiastic... there are a couple of universities here in the netherlands that offer American-style bachelors and masters. Even with dorms and mensas and all that.
2:22 am
Lizlin

Thanks Rose - hopefully there will be more rain this season!
2:22 am
Lizlin

Caya will do very well, I'm sure.
2:22 am
Lizlin

But I still only want it to rain at night! Call me selfish!
2:22 am
grannyrose

and i'm doing it in slow mo...hopefully you will get slow rain...lol
2:23 am
sprite

oh yes. She is highly intelligent and emotionally mature. She will find her way.
2:23 am
Lizlin

lol!
2:23 am
sprite

*prim face* I certainly hope you are wearing your tutu, rose!
2:23 am
Lizlin

Tim will grow up too - just takes longer for boys - but you know this anyway!
2:23 am
grannyrose

so typical...the younger female is more mature than the older male. * sigh *
2:24 am
sprite

still doesn't hurt to hear it again, Liz, lol. Sometimes we kinda despair!
2:24 am
Lizlin

No not her tutu! Full feathered headdress! Perhaps with the tutu!
2:24 am
grannyrose

of course i am sprite. it fits my left leg only, perfectly.
2:24 am
Lizlin

Attractive, I'm sure!
2:24 am
sprite

no perhaps about it. I don't give a shit what she is wearing otherwise. As long as the tutu is on!
2:25 am
sprite

yeah. That left leg. Man, I could kiss that leg. In the tutu, of course.
2:25 am
Lizlin

lol
2:25 am
grannyrose

ROFLOL...oh my, you two!!
2:25 am
Lizlin

Tutu, headdress and warpaint!
2:25 am
Lizlin

I'll ask if you kissed that left leg next year!
2:26 am
sprite

if I were a weather god, I'd hurry to bring her rain!
2:26 am
grannyrose

oh and a rose between my teeth. which colour do you think?
2:26 am
Lizlin

Pink of course.
2:26 am
Lizlin

From your garden.
2:26 am
sprite

jeezz Liz, you are no help. You will have to ask me while she is here, not after!
2:26 am
Lizlin

Matches the tutu!
2:26 am
sprite

pink works for me
2:26 am
Lizlin

That is next year, isn't it!
2:27 am
sprite

if ebola and other scares allow, yes
2:27 am
Lizlin

Writes on calendar!!!!
2:27 am

good :D
2:27 am
grannyrose

we will start planning in the new year.
2:27 am
Lizlin

You just have to grab opportunities - can't live life based on fears - obviously don't take stupid chances though.
2:28 am
Lizlin

I have a wedding in London in April - wish we could afford to be there again so soon.
2:28 am
sprite

as everything in life, you have to find the middle road. Don't hurry into danger... don't live out of fear.
2:28 am
sprite

ahhhh so close, Liz!
2:28 am
Lizlin

If we could, then I'd force Rose to match her timing to mine!
2:29 am
sprite

wouldn't that be awesome!
2:29 am
Lizlin

Dreams - when I reply to the invite, i'll suggest that perhaps a lottery win or a benefactor would be good. Don't have high hopes of either though!
2:30 am
Lizlin

Lightning flashes and a bit more rain!!! Thunder rumbling!
2:30 am
sprite

airplane tickets would do, Liz, lol
2:30 am
Lizlin

Sure would.
2:30 am
sprite

I knew it. That rose. She delivers every time, doesn't she.
2:31 am
Lizlin

But they won't happen without the win or benefactor.]
2:31 am
sprite

rose, be sure to stop dancing in time! We don't want Liz to rain away!
2:31 am
Lizlin

Yay Rose and her dancing :)
2:32 am
Lizlin

Take a lot of rain to rain me away!
2:32 am
grannyrose

ha!! i knew i could do it!! lol
2:32 am
Lizlin

Thanks Rose - rain's fading now.
2:32 am
Lizlin

Like I said - 30 second bursts of rain!
2:33 am
sprite

that was quite a bit of magic there, rose! All over the continent!
2:33 am
Lizlin

Rose magic is powerful magic.
2:33 am
grannyrose

raindrops keep falling on my head~~~~
2:33 am

our hail storms are like that. Intense hail stones for maybe a minute, and then it is done.
2:33 am
Lizlin

I'm singing in the rain.
2:34 am
sprite

I'm laughing at clouds... so high up above
2:34 am
Lizlin

I'm outta here now - only came by to say hallo to both of you. Hugs to you both! Hopefully a bigger grid tomorrow!

5:56 am

Tradeoffs--you must housetrain him, bring him outside, have vets bills.
5:57 am

oh yes, definitely! but when you're trying to make your house sellable, it seems the better choice. plus they bark at strangers.
5:58 am

Someday I will get a dog, maybe in 15 years if/when I retire.

one thing is for sure, leash training on the trail is a $^%&*

yeah scrabs, that's why the gentle lead, if they pull it starts to turn/trip them

Is that where the leash connects in front?
6:05 am

yep, doesn't hurt them at all.

I have yet to read Game of Thrones(it is on my short list) but I see that there seems to be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth over the length of time it is taking Mr. Martin to pump out the next book in the series. To this end i thought I would bestow some modicum of comfort to my babble buddies who are in the throes of palsy over the long wait. Keep in mind that Tolkien took a grand total of 17 years to pen Lord of the Rings into its final first release format. Even so more alterations would be added over the years in subsequent releases, and the tale would not be finished into the final copy we know and love today untill well over two decade had passed;)
6:06 am
Scrabbler

I agree that patience is needed for well-written books.
6:06 am

I agree with one article author who told the fans to get over themselves and he can live as he pleases

6:11 am
evanonut

nice
6:12 am
crosshair

lol! I remember when he wrote about that
6:13 am
crosshair

He also got a letter from a young teen dying of a terminal illness asking if he would share the outcome of the final book with her because she would not be around when it was finished.
6:15 am
crosshair

But even i can anser that one. As a writer, you discover that your tale will often take on a life of its own after a while and sometimes you are as surprised as anyone else over what paths the storyline takes. in truth it is often that case that it is not known, even by the one who writes the story, what the final outcome will be.
6:16 am
evanonut

same as an artist crossy, what you see when you start and when you finish are two different things. also what you think you made and what others see are two different things.
6:18 am

I have a book in the works. it is over 80% complete at this point and I have not the slightest idea how things will end up, and to be honest, I like the mystery:)

No. he went to buy a replacement valve but can't fit it as whole thing is a mess. My brother-in-law is a plumber but I think he is still in Egypt on his holidays. Nigel has gone to his house to see if he is back yet.

It is not only chillier than it has been for some time but it is absolutely pouring down.
10:46 am
zoozzoom

Well I hope you can get it fixed soon.Although you could have a nice duvet time on the sofa with your husband ;-)
10:47 am
zoozzoom

No rain has reached here yet.But i know it is on the way.
10:48 am
jaxx7

I have gone the more sweater route, Zoom, although the duvet thing sounds nice. These days though I don't think the two od us could fit on the sofa! lol
10:48 am

10:50 am

My house is crap at keeping the heat in.So when it gets really cold outside, I just go to bed early with a hot water bottle and read a book :-)
10:50 am
Nef

and here in northern mid-America we have bright sunny (& windy) skys and temps of 40 F, (5 C for you guys). I prefer the sun to rain
10:50 am
jaxx7

Good job it isn't last night as we had a bonfire party with loads of kids drinking pop and the loo in constant use.
10:51 am
Nef

Oh My1 That would have been miserable!
10:52 am
jaxx7

Ours is well insulated, thank goodness so the heat of cookoing and from freezer and fridge take the chill off. The parrot, though, is huddled in a corner of his cage looking woebegone.
10:52 am
jaxx7

cooking even. can't blame cold hands.
10:53 am
Nef

poor parrot, give him a blanket! ;-)
10:53 am

He's got feathers!
10:53 am

I prefer older house as they tend to be built better than these new crappy houses, like the one i have :-(
10:54 am
Nef

jaxx, I'm noticing my left hand isn't typing as well as it should these days; so I won't comment on other people's mistakes
10:54 am
jaxx7

This is a terrace too which helps. If all else fails I shall go and pester the neighbours until they let us in.
10:54 am
zoozzoom

He would be a birdseye parrot if he lived in thi house, Jaxx..lol
10:54 am
Nef

zoozz, can you add insulation to the walls?
10:55 am
zoozzoom

Yes I am going to try and get it done next spring/summer time.
10:55 am
jaxx7

My left hand is bandaged up after scalding myself. Hopefully the bandages will come off tomorrow as it has been three weeks since I scalded it.
10:56 am
zoozzoom

I thought at the time as it being a new build, it should of come with insulation.
10:56 am
jaxx7

Is it still under guarantee? Can you complain to the house builder's federation?
10:57 am
zoozzoom

I have heard American homes are built to a much higher standard to ours here.
10:57 am
Nef

Our house is stucco with plaster walls & I'm told that if we try to insulate the walls it would be noticeable whether we did the inside or the outside. So we piled on roof insulation to an R-60 and that helps
10:57 am
zoozzoom

No past that time, Jaxx :-(
10:58 am
Nef

wow, zooz. That's horrid!
10:58 am
jaxx7

What a shame. If you are an older person perhaps you could get some help from the government?
10:59 am
zoozzoom

I am sure I get the wall insulation free, I will be going for that.But I also have economy-7 heaters...total waste of time and money.By 9pm they are stone cold.Cost me £625 last year to use.
11:00 am
jaxx7

Do they not have a boost later on in the evening?
11:00 am
Nef

what is that, zoos? gas, electric or ???

They do, Jaxx.It does nothing special.
11:01 am
Nef

Electric heat is pretty expensive here in MN; but I think it's cheaper the farther south you go in the US. We have natural gas heat in our house
11:02 am
zoozzoom

lol I did find that rather amusing at the time though, Molly :-)
11:02 am

11:02 am

Have you tried the reflective panels behind them and closing the curtains before it gets dark. You can get insulated curtains.
11:02 am
Nef

hi Molly. How are you today?
11:03 am
MollyL

Hi Nef, no complaints. And you?
11:03 am
zoozzoom

Can get nothing behind them as they are not like radiators..Must admit I do not have lined curtains.That could help I am sure.
11:04 am
zoozzoom

I had better nip out and buy some food befor the rain comes. Toodle pips for now.
11:04 am
Nef

doing good. A cousin of DH's is stopping by soon; and a friend has asked us out to her cabin for the weekend; so DH is semi-excited.
11:04 am
jaxx7

we have insulate linings on some of ours and they are pretty good.
11:05 am

Nice that you have a chance to get away Nef, you deserve it.

11:07 am

I'm looking forward to it too. Except one of her dogs was ill this AM; so we may have a car filled with dog gas tomorrow for the 3 hour trip.
11:07 am
Nef

Do you think we should use gas masks or Fabreze? ;-)
11:11 am
Nef

visitors here; BBL
11:11 am
MollyL

Both. And keep the windows OPEN, no matter how cold it is.
11:53 am
Nef

LOL, Molly! I'm hoping whatever has upset the dog's gut will have settled down by then or we might have to have them open (and it's very chilly here & will be tomorrow too)
12:17 pm

It took me forever to find my last word; I'vebeen working on it for nearly 30 minutes! Good Luck to the rest of you; Happy Babbling Everyone!

Hi Nef,...we are fine. Bobby had a birthday yesterday and we are taking him out for lunch on Saturday.
12:19 pm
Nef

Oh, that sounds good! How old is he now; and does he get to pick where you're going? :-)
12:20 pm
Anniebrook

Nef, He is 49 and, yes, he picked where he wants to to..Applebee's, so Applebee's it is
12:21 pm
Nef

LOL! At least that's a nice place for you to go without being too pricey!
12:21 pm
MollyL

Happy Belated Birthday to Bobby : )
12:22 pm

Yes, it worked out well.
12:22 pm

Thanks Molly, I will tell him.

(sorry, phone call) Please wish him a happy belated birthday for me too, Annie.
12:25 pm

Thanks Nef, will do.
12:27 pm

DH is trying to find something for lunch; I think I'll go & do the same. Take care, and Happy Babbling, Everyone!

Having a quiet day in the great Northwest. Torrential rains this morning and high winds in some of the areas but so far we have two new maple leaves down in the yard. Not too difficult to rake up.
5:35 pm

Quiet days are good. Small grids are not so good for avid Babblers, but for 'dabblers' like me, occasional fireworks vindicate my attempts. I'm happy to report fireworks, :-)

How was Hawaii? Isn't that kind of like asking someone How was Heaven?
6:06 pm
Soodle

Well, my impression of Hawaii is Jack Lord saying 'Book 'em Dano'. Lots of waves, grass skirts , ukeleles, & surf boards. I'm conscious that I might just be stereotyping an entire community....
6:13 pm

Hi, soodle. there are more Hawaian Geese at Slimbridge than there are in hawaii these days.

Oh, you really were thinking of Heaven then, being as Jack Lord has not been with us for quite some time.
