2:59 am

3:00 am
sprite

3:01 am
grannyrose

3:02 am
sprite

defeet - losing the battle with your feet up
3:02 am
sprite

oh wow! Oh how lovely. Am so glad for you!
3:03 am
grannyrose

well that's better than dehands.... lose the battle with your hands up. *giggle*
3:03 am
sprite

*giggles* But not a really good one, is it? Not worth adding to our dictionary.
3:04 am
grannyrose

i had pretty bad pain yesterday. i was exhausted. even took endone. i realised that my next infusion is less than 3 week away.
3:05 am
sprite

good, that is not that far ahead. And no wonder you are in pain, jeezzz sweetie, you have run around all month like a young girl. Your body needs time to recover from it all.
3:06 am
grannyrose

lollll, what a thought !!! me = young girl
3:07 am
sprite

not such a leap, grin.
3:07 am
grannyrose

and that is when dr john is doing my lower back.
3:07 am
sprite

oh wow. Good times coming up, rose. I am so excited for you. I hope it will bring you all you hope for, and more.
3:10 am
grannyrose

3:10 am
sprite

phantoms: vector and sector
3:11 am
grannyrose

i know.... those two words haunted right through playing the grid.
3:11 am
sprite

there will be no stopping you :D Will you remember to take things slow, even if you are painfree?
3:13 am
grannyrose

i will, i promise. initially of course. but i have to fill out a pain chart for 6 weeks
3:13 am
grannyrose

which means i have to see how far i can walk before the pain sets in if at all
3:14 am
sprite

very good. May the Big Guy see his way to freeing you from pain alltogether. Or as close to it as possible.
3:17 am
grannyrose

sprite, do you watch the Edinburh Tattoo?
3:18 am
sprite

no, haven't heard of that. Is it a series, and about what?
3:18 am
grannyrose

ahem... Edinburgh
3:19 am
grannyrose

every year a display of bands playing, drills, marching and dancing at Edinburgh Castle. it's amazing. the precision is breath-taking
3:21 am
grannyrose

if it isn't televised where you are, you may be able to view through youtube.
3:21 am
sprite

sounds good. Here, the traditional things are first the New Year Concert, and then ski jumping (?) in Garmish Partenkirchen.
3:21 am
sprite

will check it out on youtube for sure, hun. Sounds interesting.
3:24 am
grannyrose

the bagpipes are so beautiful. they also have a full orchestra at times, or solo violinists, and a school choir .
3:25 am
grannyrose

the new year concert... is it in amsterdam?
3:26 am
sprite

no, it is always from Vienna. It is a European tradition. Very beautiful.
3:27 am
grannyrose

ahhhh, i have on occasion seen it.
3:27 am
sprite

it is the Wiener Philharmoniker, conductor is Gustavo Dudamel.
3:30 am
grannyrose

i will check it out
3:31 am
sprite

I found my favorite babbler, my favorite animal and the things betraying my ages, the fact I laugh a lot and am in pain a lot, lol. Good grid, this.
3:32 am
grannyrose

as some other babbler said, also a couple of bowel-related words. talk about toilet humour...
3:32 am
sprite

*grins* Yeah, got all of those.
3:33 am
sprite

only a few left here. Easy grid.
3:33 am
sprite

even the biggies are easy to spot, which is saying a lot
3:33 am
grannyrose

it is.
3:38 am
sprite

fireflies. That was fun. And just enough time left to walk terra before the concert. *hugs* my darling. Sleep well, and be very very kind to yourself. Love you.
3:38 am
grannyrose

3:39 am
sprite

I heard MLF. just further proof that I'll never get to Istanbul, which I've really wanted to do for many years. I even took a cruise last April that began in Athens and was supposed to end in istanbul, but in January they changed the ending, due to earlier attacks.

Nothing could get me into a crowd
8:30 am

I've never been to Israel and think that maybe I had better get there fast. I expect it will become even more unsafe in the near future.
8:30 am

Poor Dorens, going overseas just isn't safe anymore
8:30 am

BBC is 1000 times better than CNN!
8:31 am

Nope. And I agree. I do like BBC and I detest CNN
8:31 am
rubyfoo

I had a cousin who retired and moved to Tel Aviv but I didn't get there in time to see her

11:28 am

i grew up playing poker for money....it was a family thing...;o)
11:28 am
JBsAnno

Poker for chocolates sounds like a good deal
11:29 am
penquis

eagles played well last week, didn't they?
11:29 am
JBsAnno

If we played poker for money, I would be still-paying back my siblings...
11:29 am
zoozzoom

Love playing poker but do not have the money to play for real. Can not afford to lose any lol
11:30 am
penquis

we played for nickels and dimes (small change)....
11:30 am
JBsAnno

I wish, Molly, but even with a w/d in our apt, my work schedule keeps my laundry confined to the weekends.
11:30 am
rururocks

I don't like to gamble
11:31 am

it's the only kind of gambling i ever did...
11:31 am

11:31 am

11:32 am

11:33 am
zoozzoom

Is that just taking down Christmas decorations, Molly lol
11:33 am
JBsAnno

Yes, pen, they played the Giants last week, and won, which was too little too late to rescue the season. I have high hopes for the team upcoming next season!
11:33 am

11:36 am

11:37 am
rururocks

I wasn't here enough in 2016 to gather pun groans
11:38 am
MollyL

Work schedule, hmm, let's see. I work 40 hours a week and sometimes more than that, but still make time for a load of laundry a day. Like I said, I can't deal with a whole day devoted to laundry.
11:38 am
zoozzoom

Does that mean your groan efforts will be getting more elaborate to beat 203 groans lol
11:38 am
rururocks

yes.. I just have to come up with more groan-worthy puns zooz
11:38 am
JBsAnno

Hoping for all good things to come your way, zooz, Molly, ruru, pen, and Leslie!
Before I go, just want to point out that this grid has more E letters than it has words that begin with E.

11:39 am
JBsAnno

True, Molly, but add my commute on that, and quiet hours for my building, and it's laundry on weekends for me :)
11:40 am

And to you, Nan!

11:40 am

I have a very short commute. I refuse to spend hours in the car to get to and from work. It is stressful and expensive.
11:40 am

Okay my cup of tea is calling me and chocolate bar is ready to be chewed. Happy babbling everyone *poof*
11:42 am
MollyL

I work with people who spend over an hour to and from work. When you factor in what they spend on gas, oil changes and auto repair (not to mention time away from their loved ones) their wages are close to minimal.
11:44 am
cybernan

I don't understand why people who never have to leave their workplace would spend an hour or more commuting in heavy traffic when they can hop on an lrt and be there in half and hour.
11:45 am
bichon

irt?
11:46 am
cybernan

LRT - light rapid transit
11:46 am

11:46 am
hurshy

many places in the US don't have good public transit
11:47 am
cybernan

here neither, hurshy, but that's because people don't use them.
11:47 am
hurshy

yeah, vicious cycle
11:48 am
rururocks

it gets used a lot in SF and the Bay Area
11:49 am
cybernan

In Vancouver people who insist on driving in the city pay a surcharge on their gas to pay for the commuter system and in London, UK they pay a substantial extra fee on their car licenses to be able to drive in the city -- both good ideas, I think, for encouraging people to use commuter systems and for the environment
