I wonder when someone does that if they come back tomorrow and "But I know I entered those words"??

3:01 am

mattygroves

Well, if Anne's flag is correct, she's on the same time zone as I am, so it's only 9am here - the flip is at 6am...(our time)

3:01 am

mattygroves

So maybe she'll be back later this morning after some coffee (or tea) and will be thinking exactly what you suggest :)

3:02 am

gemini_J13

It's 3 am here...... flip was at 12 midnight

3:03 am

mattygroves

My OH is toasting crumpets and bringing coffee

3:04 am

gemini_J13

3:05 am

mattygroves

I now have visions of you being a sleep fighter - like you fall asleep and immediately become a deadly force in your household ;)

3:05 am

gemini_J13

I couldn't sleep ~~ Making some items for "Operation Christmas Child" shoe boxes

3:05 am

rbud

you're not alone - I'm up, too at 3 AM - insomnia and a weird sleep schedule does it for me.

3:05 am

gemini_J13

I will sleep good ......

3:06 am

gemini_J13

I don't have to get up at a certain time.... church is at 11

3:11 am

Shirlockc

10:14 am

zoozzoom

Have not read the chat bit yes there is.

10:14 am

zoozzoom

Sounds like a nordic word, nan.

10:15 am

cybernan

we all wore those skirts in the 50's. I remember making one in home ec grade 7 --- right after the bibbed apron, which was our first project. The apron looked like something out of the 1800's

10:15 am

MollyL

Short for not fast and two unlikely consonants.Uses the high point tile

10:17 am

cybernan

it does indeed look nordic - ty

10:18 am

cybernan

ty molly as well

10:18 am

Shirlockc

yeah, i had to google that d6 word, never heard of it before, i guess we never got to that part of home ec

10:18 am

MollyL

The dresses got popular after The Sound of Music

10:18 am

cybernan

when did the sound of music come out?

10:19 am

Shirlockc

1965

10:19 am

cybernan

our aprons did like those with the cross over ties at the back

10:19 am

zoozzoom

When I was one years old haha!

10:20 am

MollyL

The play: 1959 the movie: 1965

10:20 am

cybernan

we wore di 6 skirts in the 50's -- so they were popular before that

10:21 am

MollyL

I'm not saying they were not around before then. Just that the costumes in The Sound of Music made them popular

10:21 am

zoozzoom

1959- In that case I was not even a twinkling of the eye haha!

10:21 am

cybernan

circle skirts with multi crinolines were popular in the late 50's but we were back to pencil skirts in the 60's or bell skirts

10:22 am

zoozzoom

Pencil skirts? Are they like the pencil line drawn on the leg to make it look like you were wearing tights?

10:23 am

zoozzoom

It cannot be of course but just wondered what a pencil skirt is.

10:23 am

cybernan

no a slim tight skirt with a slit at the back rather than a pleat

10:23 am

zoozzoom

Ah gotcha! Thanks.

10:24 am

MollyL

Wow, Long Island sound is supposed to get 10 to 15 foot storm surge from Hurricane Henri

10:25 am

zoozzoom

Makes me laugh how some people go round in ripped jeans and have paid silly prices for them. Why not jusy buy a pair and rip them yourself for half the price!

10:25 am

cybernan

lol zppm -- my daughter is just 3 years younger than you :)

10:25 am

cybernan

*zoom

10:26 am

zoozzoom

Not nice, Molly. Hope they will be okay.

10:26 am

zoozzoom

Ah but she is still your little lady, Nan!

10:27 am

MollyL

That part of New York is not equipped to deal with such things. This could cause damage like Tropical Storm Sandy did

10:27 am

cybernan

mekes one glad not to live on the shore

10:28 am

zoozzoom

Aw toodle not allowed.

10:29 am

MollyL

Every time I see aerial photos of New York City I think that much rebar and cement was not meant to be erected on such a small piece of land

10:29 am

zoozzoom

Isn't there a fault line running through NY?

10:30 am

MollyL

Yep

10:30 am

zoozzoom

Yikes!

10:31 am

zoozzoom

tori

10:31 am

zoozzoom

poo I am very sorry everyone.

10:32 am

MollyL

There are several and New York City was NOT built with earthquakes in mind. If one happened, it could be catastrophic. I would never live there for that and a lot of other reasons.

10:33 am

cybernan

wish you'd "clued" my missing l from the top instead :)

10:34 am

MollyL

Reading about it gave me the eebie-geebies

10:34 am

zoozzoom

I have all from the top. nothing unusual.

10:34 am

zoozzoom

I bet

10:34 am

zoozzoom

I bet, Molly. Does kot bear thinking about.

10:35 am

zoozzoom

I just cannot type today.

10:36 am

cybernan

10:36 am

cybernan

nm - forgot to plural one of the 4's

10:37 am

zoozzoom

Easily done, Nan.

10:38 am

zoozzoom

I keep thinking endri or endris is a word.

10:40 am

cybernan

cybernan

gold star for hurshy

10:41 am

zoozzoom

oh yes it is the other way round. silly me.

10:42 am

zoozzoom

I am feeling rather chirpy and strange today. Something must be wrong.

10:43 am

cybernan

I don't know zoom -- is there a full moon tonight?

10:43 am

zoozzoom

Haha! Probably, Nan!

10:45 am

hurshy

i don't see how there can be four more from the top S

10:46 am

cybernan

just missing one from there now

10:46 am

zoozzoom

Okay here is a strange one for you. Does anyone ever count in their head numbers of something then sortof get stuck at a number like a stutter for a while before being able to continue. Mine for some reason is number 7. So in my head I would count say plates laid out on the table and i would do 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.7.7.7.7 then continue to 8 onwards.

10:47 am

hurshy

hmm, perhaps you are getting caught in some sort of a time-space vortex

10:47 am

cybernan

missing a lot of t's though

10:47 am

zoozzoom

Oh I am missing 4 fromthe top too!

10:47 am

hurshy

do you live near cardiff?

10:48 am

saanichcat

Hi Nan! yes there is a full moon tonight. A blue moon.

10:48 am

zoozzoom

LOL Isle of Shite..oops Wight.

10:48 am

hurshy

oh neat

10:49 am

zoozzoom

I am missing 9 Ts at the moment.

10:49 am

hurshy

i haven't tried T yet

10:49 am

cybernan

I asked zoom that because when the kids went a little nutty in the classroom it was often when there was a full moon - strange

10:50 am

saanichcat

all the full moons are being given names -- wolf moon, harvest moon, etc. The blue moon tonight is a different blue moon than I am used too (two in one month)

10:50 am

zoozzoom

I think there is a blood moon to.

10:52 am

hurshy

T not bad, i see all but 2 on first go

10:52 am

cybernan

wasn't it couple of years ago that we had a full moon that was a blood wolf moon that was also the closest to the earth for the year all in one - oh and it was the first full moon of the year too maybe?

10:52 am

zoozzoom

Says, Hurshy all smug haha!

10:53 am

hurshy

the S will keep me humble

10:54 am

saanichcat

Hi zooz, I just looked up full moon names - wow! Here's some: Green Corn Moon, Grain moon, Old Moon, Ice Moon, Full Sprouting Grass Moon, Egg Moon, Full Fish Moon....and the list goes on

10:55 am

saanichcat

yes nan you are right about that bllod wolf moon, made a special effort to see it

10:55 am

hurshy

the native americans had names for each one, and probably different tribes had different names, so if they're drawing on those, there would be a lot

10:55 am

zoozzoom

Full sprouting grass moon. wow.

10:56 am

saanichcat

that was my fave

10:56 am

zoozzoom

S words are not too bad, Hurshy.

10:57 am

hurshy

*crying*

10:57 am

saanichcat

did you get the se 6 that means hardly ever?

10:57 am

hurshy

yes

10:57 am

cybernan

ty saanich - that was my missing s

10:58 am

zoozzoom

I se6 miss that word, Saanichat lol

10:58 am

saanichcat

10:58 am

cybernan

11:21 am

MollyL

Hurricane force winds are very likely to knock power out. Also not the "enjoyable" kind of wind

11:22 am

hurshy

well, enjoyability is in the heart of the beholder

11:22 am

MollyL

Legs? That is what lederhosen is for

12:46 pm

cybernan

endrot - when you get too much rain ant the tips of the carrots turn to mush

12:47 pm

dcseain

en6.21 sounds rather like a drug and goes to the upper left.

12:47 pm

dcseain

yes, endrot is a thing.

12:47 pm

cybernan

not according to enable

12:48 pm

2:52 pm

Uneaixoise

Clue for di7 please?

3:01 pm

Q

di6/7 have far too many consonants.

3:03 pm

Uneaixoise

Aahh skirts! Thanks!

3:20 pm

hokie carla

hmm, not getting the mo6 clue. is this a plural without a singular? not a plural at all and that's where I'm going wrong?

3:31 pm

hokie carla

nm

3:53 pm

MollyL

It isn't a plural. Not sure why it was clued that way

4:10 pm

Uneaixoise

Mo6 they pose on the runway

4:11 pm

Uneaixoise

That's mo6/24

4:13 pm

Uneaixoise

Mo6/21 ends in a charged particle

4:17 pm

MollyL

Earlier, mo6/21 was clued as mo6.21 additional small particles? which leads one to believe it is a plural

4:31 pm

bichon

en 6/24, pls

4:43 pm

bichon

sorry, 6/21

7:05 pm

HarryHood

school spring? openings for teachers?

7:05 pm

Vicuna

Harry, I was similar. I thought I'd get licensed when we moved to MA, but I would have had to start from scratch and after having run my own classroom for 5 years, I wasn't going back to beginners student teaching. So I stayed in private school.

7:06 pm

HarryHood

I think they lose many excellent teachers by their requirements.

7:07 pm

Trifioso

yes, listings for teachers

7:11 pm

Vicuna

But I'm really glad not to be teaching during covid. Wishing so much luck and encouragement and best wishes to all of you having to deal with this!
