Hi rbud! How are you doing? Improving, I hope! <3
12:42 am
rbud
and that so7, haha, goofy word
12:43 am
rbud
oh, better in some ways, a little worse in others. Not bad on the average. And yourself? did you get your car back?
12:45 am
Kamanjah
Sorry to hear worse in any way! Yes, got car back today, but they have to order a new passenger seat cushion/airbag thing - they missed it. I hope that's all they missed, lol!
12:46 am
kje
found the os if needed
12:46 am
hurshy

12:47 am
kje
it is an inflammation of the bone

1:01 am

1:01 am
Kamanjah
I know, 48 days later...
1:02 am
Kamanjah
How are you doing?
1:02 am
sprite
and all as it should be?
1:03 am
Kamanjah
Almost...they missed where the passenger seat airbag tried to deploy, so new cushion is on order.
1:03 am
Kamanjah
Guess the car tried to save my purse, lol!
1:04 am
sprite
I am fine. Lol, was recently told that 'fine' means: f*cked up, immature, neurotic & emotional :D
So... let me rephrase this...I am okay. Tired, which bugs me, but we are getting there, should be able to finish my own room today.
1:04 am
sprite
hm okay. If that is all they missed, things are not too bad.
1:06 am
Kamanjah
They had well over 100 pix of the repair progress - sigh. Car was gutted and put back together. It does look great - and when we stopped briefly at a store, a shopping cart blew into it. DAMN! I didn't see a dent, but it was dark and very wet. Hope no dent. I was sitting in it and heard the crash.
1:06 am
hurshy
okay means overworked, knackered, anxious, and yucky, sprite
1:07 am
Kamanjah
Now, that definition of fine...hmmm. Rephrasing to okay is good!
1:07 am
Kamanjah
crud, hursh just blew that out of the water too, lol
1:07 am
sprite
roflol hursh! THen... doing well. Willing, enthusiast, loving and lighthearted.
1:08 am
hurshy
just kidding, i just made that up, lol. course, somebody else also just made up the one for fine, so...
1:08 am
sprite
silly Kam. You shouldn't sit in shopping carts at your age, honey.
1:08 am
Kamanjah
I'm tired. I was sitting in the CAR
1:09 am
sprite
couldn't resist. You phrased it perfectly, I was pulling your leg. Darn about the bump-in with the cart.
1:09 am
hurshy
the sitting in the car was clear to me, kam. maybe sprite is the tired one :) or was joking :)
1:10 am
sprite
I guess my sense of humour is off :D
1:11 am
hurshy
can't see the right side E
1:11 am
Kamanjah
I was so furious! I was standing there in the pouring rain with high winds, my hair flying all over, rubbing the side of my poor car, lol! A kid from the store came out about two seconds after I stuffed the cart over a curb to hold it still and asked me if I was ok
1:11 am
sprite
lol poor Kam
1:11 am
rbud
that E is the es 7
1:12 am
hurshy
ahhh thanks, got it
1:12 am
sprite
hursh, am not gonna say I see it clearly and you should put on your glasses...
1:12 am
sprite
hiya rbud! How are you doing? Recuperating steadily? Or bumpily?
1:12 am
hurshy
i HAVE on my glasses, lol
1:13 am
rbud
steadily bumping along, lol
1:13 am
sprite
lol rbud. Well, at least you are going in the right direction then. I'd wish for less bumps and more steadily for you though.
1:14 am
Kamanjah
Well, as I said, I was on my way out...I finished up all right when Sprite said "Good Morning!"
Take care and rest while you work, Sprite. And rbud, you just keep smoothing out the bumps and keep getting better, m'k?!
1:14 am
sprite
night night, Kam, sleep well and dream even better. *hugs*
1:15 am

here's irony for you
1:20 am
hurshy
i just found an he6 by using morewords, that is japanese, but not fishy.
1:23 am
hurshy
or how bout this irony. for science today i had set up a thing to show kids rust, for a lesson about metals. water causes the rust. the rust got on my hands when i touched it. then i used water, the very father of the rust, to wash the rust off!
1:23 am
sprite
the only he6 I have is not japanese, but native american
1:23 am
sprite
lol that is nice irony
1:24 am
hurshy
well, if you didn't know it was native american, it might look japanese to you
1:24 am
hurshy
you're just more informed than me
1:25 am
sprite
lol I seriously doubt that. I probably still need another he6. Mine means beads, the disk-form kind.
1:25 am
hurshy
there's only the one he6
1:26 am
sprite
okay, great, then I have it.
1:27 am

That doesn't help me at all...clueless!
5:22 pm
gemini_J13
I think they are made from shells
5:26 pm
Gillie
They can be made from stones such as turquoise as well. They are small and disc- or tube-shaped, and usually many of them are strung together.
5:27 pm
flosey
I'm feeling dumber than ever !! but do appreciate the attempt to clue
5:28 pm
Gillie
The word is similar to a word used for Japanese women trained to entertain men, but starts with 'h' and ends with a different vowel.
5:31 pm
Gillie
The word for the Japanese woman (or hostess) starts with 'g'.
5:32 pm
Gillie
(It's not in the grid, quite. I'm just continuing the clue for the he6.)
5:32 pm
ChampFit
That did it! Thank you. Goofy word.
5:32 pm

yes, and easily 80% of my students have a greater need for movement and short attention spans than the "average" third grader. *shrug* as stidgmere told me many times, it's not so bad because at the end of the day they go home... she is very wise.

She is well, TO -- comes in once a week to give my students a little great-grandmotherly attention. They thrive when she is there!
7:58 pm
Nef
It still sounds good TO

72 Temple Owl

7:58 pm
stidmama
I don't know if she plays much anymore. She is pretty busy since she retired!
7:58 pm
stidmama
I will, thanks TO
7:58 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes, returement is a whole new career
7:59 pm
Nef
That's wonderful stidgemere is coming into your classroom, stid
7:59 pm
72 Temple Owl
god bless you both. i cannot work with little kids.
8:00 pm
72 Temple Owl
hmm, no "hotties" today.
8:00 pm
stidmama
Well, third grade is my absolute lowest limit. The size of smaller kids doesn't work for my recalcitrant joints. I actually prefer older (middle school) but my current health precludes a return to the upper grades.
8:01 pm
Nef
Classrooms are a lot different than when I grew up; & even when my kids were little. Kids are just SO BUSY these days!
8:03 pm
stidmama
I love having Mother come in, TO -- since she is a colleague, I can ask questions about procedural things and she really know who I should approach or ask. She can also help me figure out better ways to support some of the struggling students since her own career was grades 1 and 2 so she knows if it's just immaturity or something else going on.

You are a saint, stids. Middle school kids drive most folks bonkers.
8:04 pm
stidmama
Not a saint, origami, I just remember the awkwardness of that age and I know very little of the rough edges are intentional or personal. There is a lot of adjusting at that age -- physical, intellectual, and social. It's a rough time that requires routines and clear expectations. And honesty. Those kids really appreciate honesty.

rather challenging grid today.
8:15 pm
stidmama
yes, I am down to 30, and sufficiently calmed down that I can go do some other tasks for a while. Nice to see you-all! Have a wonderful end to the week. *poof*
8:16 pm
dcseain
enjoy, stid
8:16 pm
Nef
No, dc, it's just a nasty grid today. I don't know how much longer until I list, but I am 2 words from half way.
8:16 pm
origami
see you stids
8:16 pm
Nef
Niters, stid!
8:16 pm
dcseain
i'm at 34 to go and am thinking about listing, yeah.
8:20 pm
Nef
How's it going ori? Do you like your new job now that you are well settled into it?
8:21 pm
origami
Yes, I do, thanks. Although, they have me working more hours now to fill in. NOT what I signed up for ... but it is temporary.
8:22 pm
Nef
Is someone sick or on vacation?
8:22 pm
origami
How is your brother?
8:23 pm
origami
Someone retired and they are deciding whether to fill the position. Asked me to - but, heck, I "retired" from a higher paying position and want no part of working full time again.
8:24 pm
Nef
He's not good right now. Went in by ambulance with aspiration pneumonia the night before last, & has a collapsed lung.
8:24 pm
origami
So sorry to hear that, Nef.
8:26 pm
Nef
BUT, he's "only" on BIPAP (no tracheotomy or ventilator yet) and they are talking to him about putting in a feeding tube as he's lost 45% of his pre-ALS weight and is down to 135#. (he's about 6 feet 4 inches)
8:27 pm
Nef
How long until they decide if they need to replace that other person?
8:28 pm
origami
We're in the middle of a reorganization. Probably another couple of months. I hope I don't get reorganized out of a job :D
8:28 pm
Nef
That's a scary thought!
8:30 pm
dcseain
hoping you can keep your job
8:32 pm
Nef
is that a worry for you, ori?
8:37 pm
origami
Thanks guys - it is a bit of a worry. I can't quite live well on my retirement income and want to work part-time for a couple more years. And my part-time job is well-paid. I'll figure out something if it happens.
8:42 pm
Nef
I'll keep you in my thoughts, ori. I hope it goes well for you.

Sorry, somehow I imaged a fireworks in there
8:56 pm

Wishful thinking, maybe?
8:58 pm
origami
It is amazing the simple words I find I have missed when I list
8:59 pm
Nef
It's amazing to me that so many words are hidden in this grid!
9:08 pm

alos, still 28 to go :)
9:14 pm

9:18 pm

Finally! H's and K's finished! 29 left
