dizgrannie

ga 8....another spelling for 'throw down the ga 8'

12:32 am

justafreep

wow. It's gotta be at least 3 hours since I've used that. Hard to believe it came up again... (thanks dizgrannie!)

12:33 am

are you talking about a glove belonging to a suit of armour?

12:36 am

dizgrannie

wow - not seeing an alt. sp. for that, never mind 8 letters long

12:36 am

justafreep

(I mean, honestly, I only know that cuz dizgrannie mentioned it. Wouldn't have known, really.)

12:40 am

cybernan

not even anything remotely similar -- oh well, maybe tomorrow

12:41 am

justafreep

Well... depends how you define 'remotely'! You'll find it tomorrow....

12:42 am

cybernan

well - I figure an alternate spelling has to be something close to the familiar one

12:42 am

cybernan

otherwise it would be a different word

12:43 am

cybernan

found it -- sounds like a relative of the garden pest

12:48 am

cybernan

nbt, nbs and off to bed - good night everyone :)

12:52 am

not having to go to work today is the best. the rest of the weekend was routine. How about you, any plans?

6:23 am

MollyL

I really needed a three day weekend. That long stretch between January and May with no paid holidays is killer.

6:30 am

lbdawger

I hear you! now if Ma nature would cooperate and not rain today would make it a perfect no work day. must remember to put out the flag, and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for us.

MollyL

Oh, we are just posting words in the chat now?
Okay.

10:22 am

amelu0218

10:23 am

amelu0218

Did you mistake the Mother Goddess for something else?

10:40 am

Aloyisius

back.. yes, I was referring to the Mother Goddess, Gaia. Once again, the little i looks like an L

10:40 am

Aloyisius

especially when you have cataracts, lol

10:41 am

MLFAN17

alloy i do that too i cant tell sometimes which is which in the chat sometimes

10:42 am

MollyL

Yes, but since GAIA is not in the grid, I assume it was used to mean the word that is in the grid.

10:43 am

MLFAN17

i don't have the ga word so i have no idea

10:44 am

amelu0218

I rather like obscure clues. Thanks again, Aloy.

DH is back on high dose steroids again because he’s having a bad flare in his MS again, so we didn’t do anything. I kept trying to keep him out of trouble; & he seems to think of new ways of stressing me out ( but not purposely. Steroids make himjitsy & wanting to do stuff he isn’t capable of doing sometimes.
