Liz wins - Upper Case
12:05 am
jwr

How did that story come out anyway?
12:05 am
Lizlin

Once a literacy teacher, always a literacy teacher!
12:05 am
Lizlin

Never read it.
12:06 am
hurshy

capitalization is so 20th century
12:06 am
jwr

literacy is one thing; literature is quite another
12:06 am
Lizlin

True - more's the pity.
12:06 am
jwr

ha hursh'
12:06 am
Lizlin

Combined is good though.
12:06 am
jwr

tis pity she's. ...oh never mind. Did we get rid of the troll>
12:07 am
jwr

Combined is excellent. Togetherness in Academia!
12:08 am
Lizlin

I loved the combination but thought that teaching irony to 10 yr olds was possibly stretching things a bit. But that was the curriculum!
12:08 am
jwr

what kind of school mandated irony to 10 year olds?
12:09 am
jwr

They don't even get sarcasm
12:09 am
Lizlin

UK Literacy curriculum.
12:09 am
Lizlin

Might
12:09 am
Lizlin

Might've changed since I taught there though.
12:09 am
jwr

oh
12:10 am
Lizlin

26th US president's name is in the grid (had to google that info)
12:10 am
jwr

No, I think it's wonderful. Tough, but wonderful. It's the kind of education I had and I loved every bit of it.
12:11 am
jwr

writing and writing and writing and reading in between.
12:11 am
Lizlin

it's always good when education is enjoyable. Often not the case though.
12:12 am
hurshy

somebody tell me how to convince a girl that she should repeat the fourth grade
12:12 am
jwr

unfortunately, I wasn't gently but persistently prodded that we in math.
12:13 am
Lizlin

Can't imagine any child wanting to repeat a year, no matter what the benefits.
12:13 am
jwr

That's another world altogether. You generally have to convince the parents first.
12:13 am
hurshy

the grandma was totally on board
12:13 am
hurshy

she's the one who speaks some english
12:13 am
Lizlin

Definitely need to convince the parents first.
12:14 am
hurshy

i can't talk to the parents, they don't speak any english
12:14 am
jwr

Does grandma outrank peer pressure?
12:14 am
Lizlin

Use the grandma as an interpreter?
12:14 am
hurshy

but then the girl didn't like the idea and then it was like oh, no. so i'm working to convince the girl.
12:14 am
jwr

Nice, Liz
12:14 am
Lizlin

But I'm sure that Hurshy thought about that too.
12:15 am
hurshy

the grandma and i just barely communicate
12:15 am
hurshy

she's not fluent
12:15 am
Lizlin

Is there an interpreter available - another parent or grandparent perhaps?
12:15 am
jwr

Any other authorities in the background? If she falls behind now, she's probably lost.
12:15 am
hurshy

sadly, no, not really
12:16 am
hurshy

i did manage to successfully convince them to get her tested for ADD
12:16 am
hurshy

they're going to do that next month
12:16 am
hurshy

but i just think that once she gets some help with that, a repeat year would give her the time and space to catch up on general skills of responsibility and putting your name on the paper and so forth
12:17 am
Lizlin

Is there a translator service through the local authorities. There's that sort of thing in the UK.
12:17 am
Lizlin

Obviously I don't know the US system at all.
12:18 am
jwr

yes yes yes. Has she made close friends in the class? Are there potential friends in the upcoming group?
12:18 am
hurshy

it's a private school. very small. classes are two grades combined. so she will be in the 4-5 class next year with all the same kids whether she redoes 4 or is in 5.
12:19 am
jwr

oh dear
12:19 am
hurshy

unfortunately, i'm moving. maybe if i weren't, i'd have a better shot at convincing her
12:20 am
licketySplitAUS

Clues are up
12:20 am
hurshy

i've worked with her a lot, invested a ton of extra time in helping her
12:20 am
broll

fa 7
12:20 am
jwr

Any chance of an older girl (how high does the school go?) who might coach her after school
12:20 am
Lizlin

So all you can do is try your best but ultimately you have to move on! Sounds harsh but you can only do so much in this situation, no matter how frustrating it seems.
12:20 am
Lizlin

Thanks Broll and Lickety.
12:21 am
jwr

thanks Lickety
12:21 am
hurshy

she can get tutors or whatever, but what she really needs is just time to get up to speed in general life skills
12:22 am
Lizlin

Are you moving on before the end of the school year?
12:22 am
hurshy

no, after the end
12:22 am
jwr

Hi Broll. Maybe tutors can do the trick then - especially if that is offered as an alternative and she can technically stay with her peers. .... And where are you moving to?
12:22 am
Lizlin

So there's still some time to work on her.
12:23 am
hurshy

yeah. keep your fingers crossed.
12:23 am
Lizlin

Good luck, Hurshy.
12:23 am
jwr

It's soooo hard to type that way
12:23 am
hurshy

lol
12:23 am
jwr

Sorry - it's a reflex
12:23 am
Lizlin

🤣
12:25 am
jwr

I'm off out into the night. Buses to catch, phones to answer. Later....
12:25 am
Lizlin

Have a good night.
12:26 am
jwr

Thanks Liz. You too, Good luck. And thank you for spelling that out. That particular abbreviation is so ugly.
12:27 am
jwr

/the "day" one is
12:28 am
hurshy

8 has to be D, W, F, or H
12:29 am
jessmom

not H
12:29 am
hurshy

narrows it down
12:31 am
hurshy

not D
12:31 am
jessmom

not F
12:32 am
hurshy

arrrr, so it's yon W that's the culprit
12:32 am
Lizlin

Not surprising with 18 words from the w.
12:34 am
hurshy

so then what's the other F from the right, besides the doggie's name?
12:34 am
Lizlin

Also missing that f

hurshy

i am a pretty good typist, yes
12:38 am
hurshy

it particularly impresses elementary school students who are just learning to type
12:39 am
Rainiqui

I knew it but I have horrid hand tremors and my fingers just wouldn't obey, lol
12:40 am
Rainiqui

my mother won all kinds of speed typing awards and I'm lucky if i can do 20 wpm
12:47 am

well, not your fault, clearly

1:24 am
grannyrose

are you coming down with something or is it that time of year?
1:26 am
rbud

I think it's just hanging on from the long stays in the hospital and not having nice enough weather to get out and walk. Soon. :)
1:28 am
rbud

well, all done, off I go. Hugs around!

when i woke up this morning, i went to the bathroom (as you do), and it was full of golden sunlight. it was gorgeous.
2:04 am
sprite

oh wow, those are precious moments!
2:06 am
grannyrose

the sort of sunlight i associate with autumn mornings. not the brilliance of summer, or the grey of winter. just a gentle golden light. *happy sigh*
2:06 am
sprite

exactly. Kind of diffuse light. You can see every particle in the air.
2:07 am

we are gonna have a terrific time again. I should know at the beginning of april whether I will lose the cast. If so, I am gonna train that leg so it will manage the clutch. Oh and honey, we have another car now, as you know. This one is way more luxurious and you and Don will be so comfy in it. Leg space and everything.

11:57 am
MollyL

That de4 is one of those weird spellings that the foreign currency loving Enable nerds love.
11:58 am
MollyL

fa 5/28 is the past tense of to transmit via machine
11:58 am
cybernan

fa 5: used an office machine to send a copy of a document
11:59 am
MollyL

While Enable does not recognize modern term such as email, it likes that one
11:59 am
cybernan

can you imagine the number of strange words added if techie words were included?
12:00 pm
flosey

aha!!! thanks
12:00 pm

Good evening. I had to list for the last 7. Let me know if you would like clues.
11:06 pm
stidmama

(((Nef))) I was worried about you the last couple days... I knew Une was okay. How did your town fare in the storm?
11:07 pm
stidmama

Got the G (finally)
11:08 pm
Nef

We had more rain than snow; but up in my hometown in NW MN they got nearly a foot of snow on top of record-breaking levels this year (reports of roofs collapsing and leaking roofs throughout the state).
11:08 pm
stidmama

The pictures on the news are pretty alarming *of course they show the most sensational shots!*
11:09 pm
Nef

I just realized you are thinking of someone living down south?
11:09 pm
stidmama

Glad you are okay! I have friends and family up in the Chicago area and they got hit pretty bad, and I saw pics from Nebraskas flooding just a little while ago too.
11:10 pm
stidmama

I had a student who was flying down to Texas at the same time the storm was coming in there! They landed safely, but I was worried until the mama texted me they were all okay!
11:12 pm
Nef

We're going to see flooding now; low areas in the area have had roads flooded, etc. We live on a small hill which is on a mild incline and then about 60 feet down to a lake about a block away. *We* won't get flooded here. :-)
11:16 pm
stidmama

Our home is similarly located (on purpose) but we also have a canoe in the back yard... LOL although I am not sure where the paddles are at the moment.
11:16 pm
Nef

However, my kids & I are driving out to MT to my brothers' Celebration of Life memorial next week (I got a flight for my hubby; he wouldn't be able to take that car trip right now). So I'm hoping & praying that the weather will be nice for 2 or 3 days at least. (we're taking the train back home).
11:17 pm
stidmama

I hope the trip will be uneventful for you all, and that the memorial will be healing.
11:18 pm
Nef

LOL, stid! You really plan ahead! I wouldn't know where to find a boat or canoe here; but I do have a portable ice house that *might* float if necessary! :-D
11:19 pm
stidmama

Well, we are across the street from the Salish Sea (waterfront is too expensive for ordinary folks anymore). :-)
11:20 pm
Nef

Then yes, knowing you have a canoe at the ready would be helpful, then!
11:22 pm
stidmama

The boys took it to our community boat ramp when they were little (I would watch from shore), but it hasn't been launched in a number of years. Might be time to take it out a bit this summer!
11:22 pm
stidmama

down to 12...
11:22 pm
stidmama

How are you doing Une?
11:25 pm
Nef

and thanks for the good wishes for our trip, stid. My sisters are telling me the Celebration of Life will be more of a party than an actual memorial because my brother didn't belong to any religion & theydoubted if he even believed in a Higher Power. (I disagree, I was with him when he died).
11:26 pm
Nef

My last 5 words were all 4 letter words. (I finished around 1:30 today).
11:27 pm
stidmama

I think parties are the way to go. The celebration of life for one of my grandmothers was a wonderful way to learn a little more about her life after she retired. It was beautiful.
11:28 pm
stidmama

There are a LOT of Ws today aren't there. Down to 8 and half of them Ws!
11:29 pm
Nef

It will be nice to hear some good stories about my brother;
11:30 pm
Nef

I think there were more W's than all of the vowels together in this grid
11:30 pm
stidmama

(((hugs))) yes
11:32 pm
Nef

He was 14 years younger than me; I didn't grow up with him.
11:32 pm
stidmama

That's about the age difference between my Tom and his eldest brother, I think.
11:33 pm
Nef

did they know each other well?
11:34 pm
stidmama

Fortunately the eldest brother is still alive (the closest-in-age brother died about 27 years ago). They get along, but we rarely see him (once or twice every ten years or so I think).
11:35 pm
stidmama

AHA! Got the 8!
11:36 pm
Nef

Yeah; I hadn't seen my brother for about 10 years either up until he was seen at the Mayo Clinic in Oct. 2017. I did see him quite a lot after that
11:37 pm
Nef

Nice work, stid! :-)
11:38 pm
Nef

And we chatted a lot on FB Messenger over the last year too.I was trying to find a clinical trial that he could try to get into. He kept thinking he'd help find a drug to cure his ALS.
11:41 pm
stidmama

I am glad you were able to reconnect when he most needed you.
11:43 pm
Nef

Me too. I flew out there & was with him for his last 9 days of life; & was able to be withhim (& his wife and also my older sister) when he died. That was a very special time.
11:43 pm
