bit of a bad night. Just awakened by my alarm and still a bit woozy. Pain is bad but yeah, am cheery ;D

1:19 am

Kamanjah

No, not the end, just a break. No "end" till we can get dad settled in somewhere safe. I found a place that helps place elders in appropriate places - no charge.

Hey there, dear one. You OK?

1:51 am

Kamanjah

That would be an interesting class. I'll have to ask about them, not familiar with the history of that area - I didn't leave Southern Calif until I was in my mid 40s

1:51 am

sprite

yeah, bit of a bad night. Otherwise I am fine :) And you? How are you doing today?

1:54 am

gapeach

Sorry dear. I've had a painful day.....but oh, well. When the weather is wet and cold...worse then. Come to think of it...it's the same when it's warm and sun is shining brightly....LOL

4:01 am

zoozzoom

Oh yuck! Hope it goes soon for you.

4:01 am

mattygroves

Found the i - thank you. What's happening over there?

4:03 am

zoozzoom

Weather wise not much cold and dank. Human-wise Parents not too good but would take an age to explain but we are getting there slowly :-)

4:04 am

mattygroves

It is cold here (I think - in truth, I'm not quite up yet) though fairly bright at the moment. Sorry to hear about your parents - I know it's tough.

4:06 am

zoozzoom

True.Hard to watch loved ones become frail and ill but love is a powerful tool we have.

4:08 am

mattygroves

It is indeed. Jeff (my OH)'s mum is now in a home suffering with dementia - it's hard to watch. I lost my mum in 2014 also in the early stages - not fun, my heart goes out to you and yours

4:09 am

zoozzoom

((Matty)) Thank you and to you too.

4:12 am

mattygroves

Have you found any 8s yet?

4:13 am

4:13 am

zoozzoom

EN 8/40 & 8/50 RE 8/60

4:14 am

mattygroves

4:16 am

zoozzoom

gapeach

Molly, if you are still here, please tell me if there are 4 8's....I have 3 and can't see the other one. Thanks

6:12 am

MollyL

Two en, One re and an se

6:13 am

gapeach

Molly, I do see se8-40. It isn't listed in the top scoring words though. Thanks

6:13 am

gapeach

Thanks hon.

6:14 am

MollyL

I think it is not listed because the re7 has more points and Lickety only lists 3 top scoring words

6:16 am

gapeach

Oh, didn't know that. Thanks

6:16 am

mattygroves

I have the other three 8s, now looking for that one - thanks guys

6:18 am

mattygroves

Found it - thanks!

6:59 am

Flask1

Hi all.....could I please have a clue for re8 please.......Zooz'z clue didn't do it for me....

7:00 am

ChampFit

It's a plural and uses the high point tile

7:00 am

lil*monkey

re + e word with high point tile

7:01 am

Flask1

Got it guys!! Thankyou, I was going the wrong way completely......duh!!!!

7:01 am

ChampFit

That happens to me ALL THE TIME.

7:02 am

lil*monkey

Champ I like your TENREC photo.

7:03 am

ChampFit

Thx. Haven't seen the word many times since I posted it.

7:03 am

lil*monkey

It's actually kind of a cute thing :)

7:03 am

ChampFit

Very small, too. I amazed I saw it in the museum with all the other animals that were in the exhibit.

7:04 am

ChampFit

*I'm* ...duh!

7:04 am

lil*monkey

The cutest animal I've ever seen has to be the prairie dogs at the San Diego Zoo. I can't think of the correct name for them.

7:05 am

ChampFit

They're fun too...popping up to say hi!

7:07 am

lil*monkey

There was a whole series about them on PBS. Almost like a little sitcom.

7:10 am

Flask1

If I'm feeling stressed then I just stick on an animal docu. and that calms me down....

7:11 am

chrisk

I think they are the meerkats.

7:11 am

Flask1

oh they're so funny....

7:11 am

Flask1

moaner

7:12 am

lil*monkey

oh thank you chrisk! I was racking my brain to think of that term. That meerkat show was sooooo adorable.

7:12 am

chrisk

I love to watch them.

7:13 am

lil*monkey

flask, I also watch animal vids for the calming effect. YouTube has so many cute kitten vids. The one with the kitten in the Kleenex box is one of my faves. He keeps popping his head up where the Kleenex is supposed to come out.

7:14 am

Flask1

oh yes lil* they're great destressers for me!!

7:14 am

Flask1

paps

7:20 am

lil*monkey

There's other ones I like, the baby goats jumping on and off things for example.

7:21 am

Flask1

those things amaze....and especially the ones on the cliff sides!

7:23 am

MollyL

One of the best bird videos I have seen was shot in someone's back yard. A mother duck jumps off a drop into a pond and all the little babies jump right after her.

7:24 am

Flask1

that sounds cool Molly...

7:24 am

lil*monkey

Oh Molly have you seen the one where the mother duck is on a busy urban street, standing by a grate. All her little ones fell in the grate. Then someone figures out a way to get the out, one by one. It's so cute

7:24 am

lil*monkey

get *them* out

7:24 am

MollyL

If you do a Google search on "mother duck teaches her babies to swim" it comes right up. Animal instinct is amazing.

7:24 am

Flask1

seen it....brilliant!

7:25 am

lil*monkey

It's on YouTube.

7:25 am

Flask1

spate

7:25 am

lil*monkey

Oh the squirrels twirling on the rotating bird feeders are ep4 ! Love those too.

7:26 am

lil*monkey

haha thanks for the clue Flask, I didn't have that! lol

7:50 am

ChampFit

7:51 am

MLFAN17

7:51 am

MLFAN17

oh oops no it isnt

7:51 am

ChampFit

The plural is.

7:52 am

7:52 am

MLFAN17

7:53 am

MLFAN17

ChampFit

Yes.

7:53 am

lil*monkey

7:53 am

MLFAN17

Science is a fascinating world. I just finished a jigsaw puzzle of the periodic table. Chemistry memories have returned.

8:49 am

dan2bit

ooh

8:50 am

Scrabbler

And I went to Khan Academy to read some chemistry. Stoichiometry---a word I haven't hear in decades.

8:50 am

dan2bit

highly recommend The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean if you are looking for reading - a very readable history of discoveries of elements and various attempts to understand and organize the Table

8:51 am

Scrabbler

Ooooh! Perfect. TY, Dan.

8:51 am

dan2bit

(more science history than science)

8:52 am

Scrabbler

I see that Sam Kean wrote a kid's version of that book.

8:55 am

We also went to Viet Na. Angkor Wat comlex, cooking class, orphans who did traditional Cambodian dances and much more

9:16 am

Scrabbler

I just looked up Angkor Wat--wow!

9:21 am

bichon

If only there weren't so many tourists there

9:21 am

Scrabbler

Ha. Tourists ruin the experience of tourists.

9:22 am

bichon

We also saw "The Killing Fields", the Cambodian genocide in the lat 70's

9:23 am

Scrabbler

:-(

9:23 am

bichon

Also went to a Cambodian school to help the kids with their English

9:24 am

I should have had that, since I'm a chemistry teacher. But I tend to get the old albanian currencies, and miss the polyatomic anions.

1:48 pm

HarryHood

1:48 pm

Jackanory

Being a chemistry teacher would help a lot with many of these grids!

1:49 pm

MLFAN17

Going to go watch the next game bye!

3:38 pm

MollyL

Oh dear God, please don't let it be the Cowboys and the Patriots. I don't think I would even watch that game as my "I don't care" factor would be at Defcon 1.
