4:04 am

mattygroves

Roast chicken might be a dinner en6/18

4:04 am

mattygroves

(or steak, or pasta or whatever - you get the idea :D - the chicken isn't the important part of that)

4:04 am

jbp

4:05 am

jbp

Thanks, looking.

4:56 am

mattygroves

Thanks, found it

6:46 am

Deeha

pitter not inthe dictionary? \It goes with patter

7:13 am

MollyL

It will take patter, not pitter. Apparently, the Enable nerds do not know about little feet.

7:13 am

MollyL

Or raindrops

7:15 am

mattygroves

Anyone who thinks that little feet pitter patter has clearly never been around children in a two storey house ;)

7:20 am

hurshy

oooh, at least one thing today where we have both american and british spellings!

7:23 am

hurshy

at least two pairs!

7:32 am

My phantom is epice6, I just wanted it to work so much

7:32 am

hurshy

*sympathy*

7:34 am

hurshy

also tutor and tutee

7:34 am

hurshy

and tofu

7:34 am

LuvWordGames

yes, I tried tutee

7:41 am

7:45 am

MollyL

I can't believe school starts next week. Where did the summer go?

7:45 am

hurshy

Narnia

7:46 am

MollyL

*All those who do not read CS Lewis scratch their heads

7:46 am

hurshy

ok, um, how about... Kathmandu?

7:46 am

hurshy

i just thought it would be funny to pretend that summer could go.... somewhere

7:46 am

hurshy

in a literal sense

7:46 am

Deeha

couldnt be Narnia we had no snow

7:46 am

hurshy

amelia bedelia

7:47 am

hurshy

that's why it wanted to go to Narnia, it was too hot! lol

7:48 am

hurshy

how bad are today's Ks? i've got one...

7:49 am

BzznBea

Summer goes the the southern hemisphere.

7:49 am

Deeha

We actually had more then enough summer this year. We had no proper rain for three months. It finally rained this week and the grass is finally turning green again

7:49 am

MollyL

I have big issues with Enable's allowing certain "more of" words. I suspect English teachers would as well.

7:50 am

hurshy

i don't think there are any objectionable ones today... not that i've found so far

7:50 am

MollyL

<---Is so sorry she uttered the fatal phrase "Where did the summer go?

7:50 am

hurshy

if it's multiple syllables, the root i mean, that's when it gets sketchy

7:51 am

Deeha

e with you Mollie about more than. It sets my te5 on edge

7:51 am

MollyL

gr8/55, go7/40 and of7/40

7:52 am

hurshy

i guess i just didn't find those that bad

7:52 am

hurshy

phantom: perfect

7:53 am

MollyL

If you were writing something, would you use of7 or more of5?

7:54 am

hurshy

depends if i were writing something fun and lighthearted and silly or something serious and scholarly

7:54 am

Deeha

ooh just found another one!!

7:54 am

MollyL

And no doctor would say that one foot was go7 than the other.

7:55 am

hurshy

no but someone might've said "i feel go7 this year than i did last year"

7:55 am

hurshy

hmm, apparently gr8 is not related to gr5 the noun, though, and that is why it counts

7:57 am

hurshy

lol, even though i came in during the pitter patter discussion i'm finding it hard to hold back my fingers from trying pitter

7:57 am

Deeha

or, Mollie, one wall of the bathroom was gr8 than the other!!

7:57 am

BzznBea

Just do it. You wil feel better.

7:58 am

ChampFit

Continually amazed and the words that use that ending!

7:58 am

Deeha

save your fingers for something better Hurshy

7:58 am

ChampFit

"at" not "and"

8:00 am

MollyL

Never heard of anyone referred to as gr6 before.

8:03 am

hurshy

must be an obsolete term

8:03 am

MollyL

Sounds like something someone would say in an 1800's pub.

8:54 am

9:01 am

hokie carla

9:04 am

hurshy

if you lift something heavy incorrectly and your lower back hurts, what are things you can do to make it get better as fast as possible

9:04 am

hurshy

i've got heating pad and stretching

9:05 am

hurshy

what else can i do

9:05 am

hokie carla

I would take an anti-inflammatory such as ibuprofen too

9:05 am

rururocks

ice it with a bag of frozen peas

9:05 am

hurshy

oh yes i have taken some of those

9:05 am

hokie carla

on a regular schedule

9:05 am

hurshy

why peas? can't i just use ice packs?

9:06 am

hurshy

i don't LIKE peas

9:06 am

rururocks

ice packs will burn your skin if you leave them on too long unless you wrap them in a hand towel.

9:06 am

hurshy

so i haven't GOT peas

9:06 am

rururocks

by the time the peas start to thaw out your session is over

9:06 am

doseffing

... of course you can ... but the thing with the peas is the package will be shaped more easily by your back

9:06 am

hokie carla

do you have any frozen veggies

9:06 am

hurshy

oh well of course i would just put it outside my shirt or in a towel

9:07 am

hurshy

the ice packs i have are the soft gel kind so they shape too

9:07 am

rururocks

that should work.. that will help you more than heat

9:08 am

hurshy

i never can understand when to ice and when to heat, or is it just different people have different theories about it?

9:09 am

hokie carla

well, ice reduces inflammation and heat loosens things up, but I'm no expert

9:09 am

rururocks

lower back issues are likely an irritated disc so the nerves around there are active..

9:09 am

hurshy

even if the pain is on the side, not the middle?

9:10 am

rururocks

if you have a stiff neck heat works better

9:10 am

hokie carla

I know there is an alternating ice/heat therapy, but I don't know what that's for, so you might google that.

9:10 am

rururocks

on the side?

9:10 am

hurshy

yes, it is my lower RIGHT back

9:10 am

rururocks

cold and then hot can relax muscle strains

9:10 am

hokie carla

side may be sciatica

9:10 am

hurshy

like kinda into the hip too

9:11 am

rururocks

then cold and then warm hursh. that would be what you want to do

9:11 am

hurshy

ok cool i will do that

9:11 am

hokie carla

google sciatica and see if that fits, if so you can find things to do

9:12 am

hurshy

tis ironic i just went to a physical therapist yesterday about my shoulder, and then i go and do this to my back after i get home, lol

9:13 am

hokie carla

what's up with your shoulder?

9:13 am

rururocks

certain issues you can only resolve with a PT

9:14 am

hurshy

i injured it quite awhile ago and didn't do anything about it because it was only a problem when i stretched really high, but then more recently i aggravated it and it got to be achy a lot of the time

9:14 am

hokie carla

I had shoulder surgery several years ago

9:14 am

hurshy

basically i hyperextended, was the original thing

9:15 am

hurshy

cause i was trying to reach a pen that was just a little out of reach, over a COVID plexiglass shield that was just a little too tall

9:15 am

hokie carla

phantom perfect

9:15 am

hurshy

i am so lazy that instead of like taking two steps to go around i will push and hurt myself, gah

9:16 am

hokie carla

well, hopefully they can get you straightened out

9:16 am

hurshy

yes, they, and my doctor, both seemed to think that it can be fixed in a relatively short time

9:17 am

hurshy

they were all "does heat help? does ice help?" and i was all, uh, idk, i haven't tried either

9:17 am

hurshy

cause i am a doof

9:18 am

hurshy

the good news is that my cats like their new "cat tree"

9:18 am

hokie carla

is it out on the catio?

9:18 am

hurshy

no i haven't got a catio

9:18 am

hurshy

what am i, made of money?

9:19 am

hurshy

plus i've only lived one place that i owned and that was a condo and i'm not sure if we'd have been allowed to build a catio on it

9:20 am

rururocks

if you were made of money hursh that wouldn't make any cents

9:20 am

hurshy

oh no, not more indollarable punning

9:21 am

rururocks

i SPARE you no quarter

9:21 am

hurshy

that's rich, coming from you!

9:21 am

rururocks

you do know how to coin a phrase hursh

9:22 am

hurshy

i admit i have a yen to have a catio, but to be franc, i just have to wait

9:28 am

hurshy

ibuprofen: check! icepack: check!

9:29 am

hurshy

3 words to go!

9:29 am

BzznBea

Did you get an owie?

9:30 am

hurshy

yes, you can read all about it if you scroll back lol

9:31 am

BzznBea

Ah..so sorry.

9:31 am

9:31 am

9:33 am

9:33 am

hokie carla

oh no, bea. what happened?

9:33 am

origami

Exactly!

9:33 am

hurshy

when i actually know how i got an injury, it's a nice change of pace

9:34 am

BzznBea

Nothing, Carla. I just have thin skin and thinner blood.

9:34 am

hokie carla

9:34 am

hurshy

9:35 am

BzznBea

All I know is that they were burned at the stake for reading , writing, or talking about anything that didn't conform to what the church considered to be correct

11:09 am

MollyL

Pagans have a great deal of faith. They were just demonized by the Catholic Church so that they could convert the Pagans to Catholicism.

moolingwa

11:10 am

hokie carla

jeez, 38 here. had 42 when I said rehowdy

11:10 am

I think that is why it was called the Dark Ages -- the church stifled any efforts of the people to gain knowledge and share wht they had learned

11:11 am

penquis

moolingwa

yeah, I have a p7 already, so there's 2 of them apparently

12:42 pm

hokie carla

yeah, the one I have is a regular word, though we don't see it regularly here, so I figured you have that.

12:43 pm

moolingwa

I have one that is not that regular, you'd know it, but not something you come across often...unless perhaps if you're of polish decent

12:44 pm

moolingwa

found the 7

12:44 pm

moolingwa

was a regular word

12:45 pm

hokie carla

12:46 pm

moolingwa

p7/40

12:46 pm

moolingwa

12:55 pm

cybernan

oh we do have restaurants that serve poutine now - not sure there is one in my town, but it is a Quebec dish

12:56 pm

MollyL

Never heard it without an eye, but I have had several Polish neighbors, so that is how I hear it.

Just arrived and to clear things up about food avaibility in Canada. I live in the same province as cybernan in a much smaller town than hers and we can get all those foods.
