Trifioso
hello friends
9:05 am
Anniebrook
hi trif
9:08 am
Trifioso
sometimes I feel so sorry for the students in the town where I work....its a rough place.
9:09 am
Anniebrook
rough in what way?
9:13 am
Trifioso
example: today the principal made an announcement that all staff should check their emails immediately. We were informed that several students on the way to school saw a body in the street, of a man who had died. If anyone seemed to be "Upset by this" we were directed to refer them to the guidance counselor.
9:14 am
Anniebrook
Traumatic. Poor kids.
9:15 am
Trifioso
so many have only one parent at home, or are being raised by someone other than a parent, don't speak English as a first language, come to school hungry, lacking supplies....its really eye opening.
9:16 am
Anniebrook
That is very sad. I can't imagine children being in that situation even though I know it is a common occurance.
9:17 am
Anniebrook
Trif, do you work in Boston?
9:18 am
Trifioso
no, on the south shore
9:19 am
Anniebrook

just back on- this is still Norwell you live in Trif, right? wow.
9:20 am
Trifioso
I live in norwell, I don't work there.
9:20 am
Wolvie
oh. okay- sorry. :-) thought you worked in that school system
9:21 am
Trifioso
Norwell is very, very different from the town I work in, and I am the first to admit I was sheltered and ignorant of how things are for many people in this world, until I was thrust out of Stepford and into this place.
9:21 am
Wolvie
i lived so long in MA. i remember norwell as very upscale :-)
9:21 am
Wolvie
ahh. i see :-)
9:21 am
Trifioso
it is. The more time I spend outside of it the more I really how many people there have not. one. clue.
9:22 am
Wolvie
yup. that sounds more like it

hello ms judi
10:29 am
Judi
Ah, there is life in Babble this morning. Hiya, Ru!
10:30 am
rururocks
sorta.. just am getting going
10:32 am
Judi
Rare for me to be playing in the morning since my transfer. Filling in at the PD today. :-)
10:32 am
rururocks
ah.. I hope that gets sorted out for you.. what a mess
10:34 am
Judi
Not waiting for it to be sorted. Am looking for a new job.
10:36 am
rururocks
oh.. so sorry. I know you liked the police dept.
10:37 am
Judi
Yeah. Feel like a part of me has been chopped off. All comes down to small town political back-stabbing. They can play those games without me.
10:38 am
rururocks
seen that before. My best friends son is being harassed by a small town politician
10:38 am
rururocks
who may have to sue the City
10:38 am
Judi
At the risk of sounding arrogant, it will be their loss. They are the ones who spent the money to get all the training over the years. Idiots.
10:39 am
Judi
Pay for my training, I should say.
10:39 am
rururocks
your hubby has previously told us you aren't trained :D
10:40 am
Judi
WHAT!? I'm perfectly well-behaved off the leash.
10:40 am
rururocks
HA.. I do pretty well on a choke collar too
10:41 am
Judi
Tough to drink wine that way.
10:42 am
rururocks
exactly
10:49 am
Judi
Collars are just fashion statements really. Ask my dog. She has a stunning collection.
10:50 am
Judi
Currently, she is wearing a neon green collar with squirrels and acorns on it.
10:55 am

Many players find it helpful to refresh several times while playing, to refresh whenever you leave the game to come back later, and to refresh after finishing.

anyone have clues for any of the 8s? i have none yet.
7:06 pm

I have ti8 which is a metal favored by cyclists, and wh8, most like Beaver Cleaver's friend Whitney

I loathe making lunches for the kids. DW is travelling, so I have to take on the duty - I procrastinate and end up making lunches at midnight.
7:19 pm
penquis
i listed at 57....down to 28 now....crawling too....
7:19 pm
HarryHood
66 now. I will be listing momentarily, I think
7:19 pm
MollyL
Harry, you have my sympathy. I hated making lunches for two kids. How you do it successfully, for your clan, is beyond me.
7:20 pm

Good for you. I could never figure out how to send a tuna sandwich in a packed lunch without the bread getting all soggy.
7:21 pm
HarryHood
I start with frozen bread, and no tomatoes allowed.
7:23 pm
MollyL
Good call. The mayonaisse factor is what gets the bread soggy though. I finally started sending bread in a zip lock and the tuna salad in a plastic container...sandwich to be made when it was lunch time.
7:25 pm
HarryHood
wow that's very devoted of you. I can't deal with the complications.
7:25 pm

I'm off to mull over lunches. hope to bbl.

This grid is difficult because the words are stacked up in freakishly weird ways.
7:45 pm

i don't think i have ever seen a ui word....
8:03 pm
MollyL
It's based on some obscure mountain range in Utah that I have never heard of.
8:04 pm
penquis
can you please clue it?...i will never find it...
8:05 pm
MollyL
There is no way to clue that word. Just go to a2z wordfinder and you will get it.
8:05 pm

ok, thanks...

I think I'll break my own rule of not going to Lickety before I have half the grid finished (that's normally the very earliest I let myself use it.
8:27 pm

i went at 58 or thereabouts....
8:27 pm
penquis
my rule is that i list when it stops being fun...
8:29 pm
Nef
Oh; that's a good rule; (this grid isn't fun!)
8:30 pm
penquis
no....so sometimes i make get to a lower number.....it's affected by the time of day and by how tired i am....
8:32 pm
Nef
Very true. Or (like now) by what time I have to get up in the AM (DH made a doctor's appt. for 8AM; he hasn't seen that time of day -at home - for years!
8:38 pm
