Hi Hurshy - agree that it's a hard grid.
12:27 am
Minveryork

Hello! I missed the flip, but I just found 65 words. I hope to finish this one later. By the way, today is Walking the Dog Day. Hope all dog owners get to walk the dog today.
12:27 am
Lizlin

Hi Min
12:28 am
Minveryork

Hi there Lizlin! How are U doing over there down under?
12:28 am
Lizlin

All's good down under. The predicted cyclone here seems to have fizzled out!
12:29 am
Minveryork

Well then that is definitely good for you guys. I wish our Winter here in New York would just fizzle out already!
12:30 am
Lizlin

Hopefully for both of us Spring and Autumn aren't too far away.
12:31 am
hurshy

the letters are all wrong
12:31 am
hurshy

ooh but i just got a nice un5/24
12:32 am
Lizlin

I have that one too :)
12:32 am
Lizlin

Are there any stats for the 7s?
12:33 am
hurshy

well, not that have been called, but lickety said clues are up
12:33 am
Minveryork

hursy and Lizlin add a vowel to that to get a un6/24 word
12:33 am
Lizlin

Haven't looked at Lickety yet.
12:33 am
hurshy

oh and it's ru8 x 3
12:34 am
Lizlin

Thanks, Min
12:34 am
Lizlin

Thanks, Hurshy.
12:34 am
hurshy

how can i get a 6/24 by adding a vowel when it's already 24 points with only five letter?
12:35 am
Minveryork

Now that I gave my first clue for the day, I am off to bed
12:35 am
Minveryork

Goodbye Babblers! I will be back to finish later on today.

Minveryork

Now that's really I sign that I need to go to sleep. *POOF*
12:36 am
Lizlin

there is a un 6/24 but not connected to the un 5/24
12:37 am
hurshy

mk thanks
12:37 am
hurshy

min must have thought i meant un5/14, that 5/24 was a typo, but, it wasn't
12:38 am
Lizlin

I figured that too :)
12:38 am
Lizlin

Is the 3rd ru 8 connected to the other 2?
12:39 am

BBL - need to get something to eat. Not back from the gym for long - starving now! So I'll put on the calories I might've lost!
12:41 am
cybernan

good night all -- can't stop yawning
12:43 am

ooh and a nice sp 6/36
12:44 am
hurshy

12:46 am
KIMMYDEE

for wordsmiths a lot of you sure don't appreciate the meaning of humble
12:47 am
hurshy

we have a culture... it does involve quite a bit of sharing and celebrating
12:47 am
KIMMYDEE

I feel like I'm at a rap concert
12:47 am
hurshy

what happens at rap concerts?
12:48 am
KIMMYDEE

they brag a lot
12:48 am
KIMMYDEE

maybe I just don't get the online thing
12:49 am
lynxxx

You can always switch to the My Friends at the top if the chat annoys you
12:50 am
KIMMYDEE

Thanks for the input.
12:50 am
hurshy

the grids kick our butts often enough that we have to brag when we get stuff
12:50 am
lynxxx

not a problem Kimmy
12:53 am
KIMMYDEE

I do keep a look out for the clues, so that is why I don't keep the chatterbox switched off.

how rude, auralite it a gem stone but it won't accept it
12:58 am
hurshy

google says it was only discovered in 2007... maybe enable hasn't been updated since then
1:15 am
Jacula

I'm liking the sexy un5/24 word/ ;)
1:58 am
jwr

phantom urinals are good for false bottom
2:00 am
NonoNanette

ps
2:03 am
jwr

hurshy, are you suggesting that there might possibly be a logical reason for a word's choice or rejection in that paragon of dictionaries?
2:12 am
jwr

careless me - didn't notice the time difference - slid into the empty space between chat. Back to Add Word...
2:16 am
gapeach

LOLOLOL
2:18 am
jwr

hmm. a peach fell thru the gap onto my head
2:18 am
gapeach

Yep. Congrats, jwr.
2:19 am
jwr

what? for a sqished head?
2:20 am
gapeach

No. For your courage.
2:20 am
jwr

ah - you mean for challenging Our babblebible out in the open?
2:21 am
jwr

Or for chatting to myself
2:21 am
gapeach

Alot of people agree with you.
2:22 am
jwr

And how are you doing this fine midnight (or whereever you are)
2:23 am
gapeach

I'm OK....just tired. I have insomina and am kind of goofy at this time of morning. And you?
2:23 am
jwr

YOU're goofy?
2:24 am
jwr

You have insomnia, and I'm trying to stay awake
2:24 am
gapeach

Just that I am not at my best at most things.
2:25 am
gapeach

Insomina is very unkind.
2:26 am
jwr

(sorry, I was just suggesting that YOU were not the goofy one you were making sense. Insomina is unkind. Insomnia is just indifferent.
2:27 am
jwr

Okay. I'll behave. Is it clinical insomnia - something that is spoiling your life - or something chronic?
2:28 am
gapeach

I've had two strokes and sometimes I stutter when trying to explain to someone (i.e. a doctor), why I stutter sometimes. Did I make any sense?
2:28 am
jwr

Wait a minute - that's the same thing. I meant something that just happens occasionally.
2:29 am
gapeach

No, hon, it is most times.
2:31 am
jwr

Yes, you make perfect sense. I have been diagnosed with mild (fortunately) cognitive impairment. I have a primary memory loss which is nicely hidden when I write because I can take all the time I need finding synonyms or other ways to describe the lost word.
2:33 am
jwr

I'm so sorry. Have you talked to a pro about it? Or do you find your own ways of dealing with it?
2:33 am
gapeach

Yay, you! I had speach therapy after the strokes and one thing stuck with me.....when I cannot come up the word I want.....pick something close enough for whomever I'm trying to communicate with will understand what I am saying.
2:36 am
jwr

I've had several TIAs but no stroke. I'm lucky so far. You picked a good think to stick with, I think. (Most people I know (especially young ones these days) do not understand what you say when you say things like "whom."
2:36 am
jwr

hi all. any clues for the i words second row or e first row? ty
2:39 am
gapeach

Sorry, mkg, don't have either.
2:39 am
mkg

ok. night all
2:39 am
jwr

sorry, mkg. All I can see right now is "fryup" - something my Brit friends eat for breakfast.

Bye mkg. It's probably two words anyway.
2:43 am
jwr

my dear sweet sticky peach: from what you say, you seem to be able to think, as they say, on your feet. Which is a rare and valuable skill. Getting it OUT is the problem and that is a mechanical - fixable - thing.
2:45 am
jwr

If, after two strokes (and what a scary thing that is to live with), that is the worst, then you have had a couple of marvelous recoveries. What have you tried for the insomnia? (Babble is just a distraction, unfortunately, but not a cure)
2:45 am
gapeach

Thank you, jwr. I just refuse to give up. Much to some people's chagrin. LOL
2:47 am
jwr

Is your daily schedule flexible enough to sleep when you are ready to do so?
2:48 am
jwr

[Okay I can't resist it: "to some people's chagrin" all I can say is they'll have to chagrin and bear it.
2:48 am
gapeach

Yes. I do take naps....that help so much.
2:48 am
gapeach

LOL, good one, jwr.
2:50 am
jwr

Wonderful. Are the naps long enough for some dream time, or are they too short or shallow?
2:53 am
gapeach

My naps vary in length.....usually I sleep one or two hours and if I have a bathroom calling me....must get up and that is when I have a difficult time getting back to sleep.....my two little rescue dogs are very good.....they sleep when I do.
2:56 am
jwr

Have you tried answering the calls on a strict schedule, say every three hours whether you feel it or not? The bladder fills up fairly regularly, even if you can't tell. (I know, that's just part of it but I find that it helps.)
2:58 am
gapeach

I get up at first warning.....
3:00 am
jwr

Or every two hrs. That's for waking time. For during sleep, you're telling me that the "sleeping" is very shallow. ...Is there a bedside commode - and please tell me if this is getting to personal. My internalized "nurse" doesn't know any boundaries, I'm afraid.)
3:03 am
sprite

good morning all
3:03 am
gapeach

No bedside comode....don't like them......so far I can make it to the bathroom. Just hoping it stays this way for a long time.
3:03 am
sprite

*hugs peach*
3:04 am
gapeach

Hi there, sprite. Hugs back to you, dear.
3:04 am
sprite

sorry to hear you are having such a hard time getting enough sleep :(
3:05 am
gapeach

jwr, it has been nice chatting with you. I do need to check on the critters and then a nap. Takle care, blessings
3:05 am
jwr

That wasn't my point. {...hi, Sprite...] Having to get up and "make it" all the way is a major waker-upper.
3:05 am
sprite

hiya jwr :)
3:05 am

Thanks, sprite.

Oh. I was thinking it was some new computer shorthand. The latest thing in texting...
3:11 am

As for your previous post, I'm still trying to get my head around it. Who is waiting on you, hand and feet?
3:11 am
sprite

ah, might well have been. Cannot think of a meaning off the top of my head, though :D
Please elevate? Oh right, that was what the hospital said.
3:12 am
sprite

my husband, part of the time. We are still in the stage of enlisting the right kind of help... finding out what we can do by ourselves and what not. My husband has applied for care leave at work. It is a bit of a mess, tbh. Even taking a leak is a minor challenge :)
3:13 am
jwr

Perfect. That's what I'm supposed to be doing instead of Babbling (don't ask why). ... Query: are you eligible for home care aid visits - I'm not sure what your social medical care offers.
3:14 am
jwr

Re leakage: I'll bet is is!!
3:15 am
sprite

yes I am, definitely. The point is, most of what they will do for us is not the help we need. We do not have a home that needs cleaning (15 mins is all it takes and my love can manage that). I can wash myself and all, so no need for that either. We need help walking Terra, getting groceries, cooking dinner.
3:16 am
sprite

hmmmm and do not ask why... why not? Why? How are YOU doing?
3:18 am
jwr

Other than the dog walking (yes, I had to stop and think whether that was your daughter's name or not...) that what home health agencies provide in cases like that - shopping, cooking meals, getting library books, whatever is needed to help the healing ... and how to you wash the middle of your back, hmm?
3:18 am
jwr

that's
3:20 am
jwr

Of course, you have to be 78 years old and "lower income" . . . di dum di dum, she sang - there are some perks.
3:20 am
sprite

I am nimble, I can reach every part of my body, lol. Here, the home health care is more limited. They will provide cleaning of the house services, laundry, washing the body of the patient. But not shopping or cooking or library books or whatever, alas.
3:21 am
sprite

lol, my daughter (Caya) is 21 and usually walks herself these days.
3:21 am
jwr

Yes, but can she walk Terra! That is the question.
3:22 am
sprite

nope, she is at the other end of the country, alas
3:22 am
sprite

and son is in scotland :D
3:23 am

What kind of excuses are those?
3:23 am
sprite

ikr? Kids, nowadays...
3:24 am
jwr

Kids, all-'o-days.
3:24 am
sprite

still waiting for you to tell me how you are doing, btw
3:26 am
jwr

And if you mean the OLD old days, kids didn't have any choice: parents held the purse-strings until they had families of their own. And some didn't get untied even then!
3:26 am

true, dat

I'm glad you're such a patient soul.

Hello, Jwr, hello, Sprite...((Sprite)) very sorry to hear you have injured yourself so badly. Hope you will mend as quickly as possible.
3:30 am
jwr

My excuse is that I've already had a long conversation with gapeach and hardly any Babbling and I have to go back to work in about five minutes ... so I'm going to have to leave you in the lurch (oops, sorry for the lurch, I just went off balance for a moment). No it's too much to go into at the moment. Sometime or maybe I'll just email when I next come to the keyboard
3:31 am
