Thanks, Dee - wouldn't have found that one.

ca is spanish not english. i hate that.
12:51 am

Is the second zo 5 related to the other?
12:56 am
Lizlin
Thanks again Dee - I should know by now to try everything even if I don't think it's a word!
12:56 am

I think in that useage it pertains to cooking Dee I didnt look it up yet
12:56 am
flosey
thanks Dee found the st6 and 7
12:56 am
Lizlin
Actually I think that sp 7 is more to do with a way of cooking meat on an sp4 roast!
12:57 am
VolleymomDee
zo 4 is the root... then add a consonant; and the next 5 is a plural
12:57 am
flosey
ah and yes, agree regarding the sp7
12:57 am

peach, when you open the screen with lickety's list, there is a line at the top with his email addy in it. r46.me/BabbleClues. at the end of that line is a circle arrow, if you hover your curser over it it turns blue. that is the refresh button for lickety's page. click on it and the new list should load

Good morning. The sun is shining (still very cold, though), I don't hurt, I love this grid and although there are still BIG problems, I feel moderately optimistic
6:07 am
Anniebrook
good morning dear ((ruby)) How is
6:07 am
Anniebrook
Ruffie's toe?
6:08 am
rubyfoo
((annie)) I was just thinking of you, going through clipping to make the next "Bobby" envelope
6:09 am
rubyfoo
It's the foot pad, and he won't let me touch it. Howeever, he is accomodating the pain and is limping arounbd
6:09 am
Anniebrook
ruby, absolutely no rush. the mailman is impressed that Bobby gets mail from France. Have I the right dog?
6:10 am
Anniebrook
Is the vet in the future?
6:10 am
rubyfoo
The problems are that he hasn't ben in a car since his arrival, almost 4 yrs ago, his vet is afraid of him, so can't treat him here, and my car died in the driveway
6:11 am
rubyfoo
Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
6:11 am
Anniebrook
oh dear, the play was fine but I was called away in the middle
6:11 am
rubyfoo
And he weighs more than 70 lbs
6:12 am
Anniebrook
Houston we have a problem
6:12 am
Anniebrook
In Brooklyn there are vets that come to your home
6:13 am
rubyfoo
Do you enjoy the silly clippings I send? I send all the animal ones and occasionally, those I think you will like
6:13 am
Anniebrook
Yes, we do.
6:14 am
rubyfoo
His vet, Emmanuelle, first came here to treat Ruby's heart problem when Rufe was a little boy. Then he had various rashes and she had to shave him.
6:16 am
rubyfoo
CHOWS NEVER FORGET and now he gets Under the table and growls at her. He has never bitten anybodyy but he is scary-looking and even growled at me when I tried to examine his foot
6:17 am
Anniebrook
he probably has to be sedated. Poor Ruffie.
6:19 am
Anniebrook
Im going to start the coffeemaker. Be back soon.
6:25 am
rubyfoo
The problem is that he probably can't be sedatedhere. It is making me heart-sick to see him suffer
6:26 am
rubyfoo
And he is only 4 tears old, my favorite amongst all my chows
6:36 am
ursh
Hi ruby - seems like you need to get him into a cage or crate so that he can be sedated safely for the vet and himself
6:36 am
lynxxx
Ruby - you are so cute - as long as I have known you each one has been your 'favourite'. How are you? have you had your radiation treatment yet or has that been deferred?
6:38 am
periwinkle
good morning all. help with the U pls
6:39 am

Hi Peri - it is ud4.6
6:39 am
periwinkle
ty, I was close, had a different consonant at the end
6:40 am

do you think there are enough S words today?
6:41 am
lynxxx
perhaps a tad too many
6:41 am
periwinkle
clue for any 8 pls
6:44 am
ursh
ca 7 & 8 - misspell the wick & wax light - add a vowel and then plural
6:46 am

TY - was trying that area before
6:46 am
periwinkle
I am trying but not succeeding
6:46 am
periwinkle
nm got them ty
6:46 am

new words for me. must get ready for the gym and go to the market, my pantry is practically bare. bbl
6:47 am
rubyfoo
That is funny, Lynxx§ I must sound like a total flake!
6:48 am
lynxxx
never Ruby
6:49 am
rubyfoo
I think that since my husband died, Rufie has attached himself to me in a new way.
6:50 am
rubyfoo
Urshy, that's a good idea, but I don't think anybody could get him into a dog crate as he's so big and stubborn.
6:50 am
lynxxx
Dogs pick up on our emotions very well, he is probably sensing your sadness
6:51 am
rubyfoo
I think so, too. He spends a lot of time just leaning on me or sitting on my foot.
6:52 am
ursh
ruby - is he greedy - use food lots of favourite food
6:53 am
ursh
no lots of food is not a good idea if he is to be sedated - use favourite treats to entice him in
6:55 am
rubyfoo
He is eating well if I help him and, limping as he is, if someone comes to the gate, he still runs up the stairs and barks. Protecting me is more important than his pain!
6:57 am
bichon
Ah, the emotional life of dogs.
