happy saturday!

6:58 am

Scrabbler

Hi aslindy. How are you and Lavender healing?

7:00 am

aslindy

hi scrabs! I am able to wear most of my actual shoes, but need to work up to being on my feet as much as I'd like to be. Lavender is doing better since that SQ stitch was (mostly) removed, plus I upped the frequency of the pain meds to be sure she is comfortable. She's able to walk more every day.

7:00 am

aslindy

How is your shoulder?

7:03 am

Scrabbler

My shoulder feels about 80% recovered, I just need to work on strengthening.

7:03 am

aslindy

that's excellent!

7:04 am

Scrabbler

But I cannot start those exercises for another 3 weeks, following protocol.

7:05 am

aslindy

ah yes, need to be sure things are healed enough to tolerate strengthening

7:06 am

Scrabbler

Yes, so I am following orders from my physical therapist.

7:06 am

aslindy

I have to keep Lavender on leash so she doesn't start running in the yard yet. She wants to, but she's not ready.

7:07 am

Scrabbler

Poor girl

7:08 am

aslindy

meds make her sleepy, so she is able to rest like she needs to do

7:09 am

Scrabbler

good

7:10 am

Scrabbler

does she wear a brace?

7:11 am

aslindy

no brace

7:16 am

Scrabbler

Even when she starts running?

7:17 am

aslindy

we have to work up to that, but there's been no mention of a brace

7:18 am

bichon

What happened to Lavender?

7:18 am

Scrabbler

I wondered. Most of my patients do not wear a brace after ACL repair, but football players often do.

7:19 am

aslindy

she had surgery to fix a luxating patella - the kneecap would slide sideways instead of staying in the groove to slide up and down.

7:19 am

Scrabbler

Oh, I thought she tore an ACL tendon.

7:19 am

aslindy

well, there was no repairing of ligaments or tendons, just fixing the bone groove

7:19 am

bichon

One o my past Bichons had that

7:20 am

aslindy

no, thankfully no ACL tear

7:20 am

aslindy

it's much more common to happen in small dogs. Lavender has very straight hind legs, so it's not surprising she has had problems.

7:23 am

Scrabbler

Scrabbler

Back.

7:53 am

BzznBea

i'm finding this grid to be pleasant.

7:54 am

Scrabbler

I agree.

7:55 am

Scrabbler

I am shaken to learn that a local male teacher was arrested last evening for possession of child porn. I know so many kids in his classes.

7:56 am

BzznBea

i would feel the same, scrabs.

7:57 am

Scrabbler

The community will learn more soon.

8:10 am

Scrabbler

94 left. I am done.

8:10 am

BzznBea

do you live ina large community?

8:46 am

aslindy

clue for un7 please?

8:47 am

aslindy

ugh, never mind

8:51 am

MollyL

That's not really a word to ugh about. I doubt it's familiar to many.

8:52 am

aslindy

the ugh was for asking for a clue and then immediately seeing the word

8:53 am

MollyL

I am trying and failing to use it in a sentence.

8:55 am

aslindy

dictionary dot com says: Why then should this enervating pity un7 my foolish heart?

8:57 am

BzznBea

rather archaic

9:22 am

mkg

Not seeing the un 7 at all. Help needed please.

9:22 am

aslindy

un + metal

9:23 am

mkg

Even that sentence doesnt help.

9:23 am

mkg

Ty got it. Great clue. Ty

9:23 am

aslindy

I think the sentence only makes sense if you already know the word

9:24 am

mkg

Are there words that use both Cs? Not seeing any

9:26 am

aslindy

I have not found any so far

9:26 am

mkg

Me neither. Oh well.

9:29 am

maggiej

ic 6/24 has two Cs

9:32 am

clg47

ci 6/24 has two C's

9:33 am

phaeton

an echo!!

9:38 am

aslindy

not an echo

9:55 am

LisaG

Can I have a clue for the ci 6?

9:56 am

rururocks

ci + things you have to get out of your hair (pest)

9:56 am

LisaG

Thank you!

10:03 am

rururocks

11:02 am

hurshy

te6/21, i think it was an 80s-90s model

11:05 am

hurshy

11:26 am

cybernan

good morning everyone. Just read the chat - have found one word at least using both c's

11:29 am

hurshy

hello nan

11:29 am

hurshy

do you mean the one that hangs from the edge of the roof?

11:30 am

hurshy

i think that is the only one i have

11:30 am

cybernan

yes

11:31 am

cybernan

just signed on a few minutes ago, so haven't got very far

11:32 am

cybernan

we rec4 words all the time - don't know why it isn't a word!

11:32 am

hurshy

probably because this is the only context in which that word exists, lol

11:32 am

cybernan

lol

11:34 am

cybernan

I'd believe that if there weren't so many other words that only appear here - and certainly not in scrabble or the bee

11:34 am

hurshy

oh the ci6 that was clued shortly before i arrived is another word that has both c tiles

11:35 am

cybernan

so there are two?

11:35 am

hurshy

at least, yeah

11:35 am

hurshy

they are anagrams of each other

11:37 am

cybernan

ty hurshy - new word for me

11:48 am

cybernan

taking a breakfast break

11:48 am

dcseain

enjoy breakfast, nan

12:00 pm

dcseain

thanks, the ci6 is an undergarment.

12:02 pm

MollyL

Yeah, if you believe in self-punishment

1:09 pm

hokie carla

1:10 pm

cybernan

1:12 pm

cybernan

monkeying some crazy ones

1:12 pm

hokie carla

yeah, 48 left here, wordle in 4, found the pangram but only 5 words total in the bee, and still need a lot of big words in squaredle.

1:14 pm

cybernan

I don't get the nyt bee -- there are 3 free ones that I play though

1:14 pm

hokie carla

well, today's is really hard in my opinion

1:16 pm

cybernan

there is an ne 7-8 that I can't find. 3rd letter has to be a t and only 32 points for the 7

1:16 pm

hokie carla

I guess that's my missing N's so I will look.

1:17 pm

cybernan

in fact I think it has to begin with the fishing gear

1:18 pm

hokie carla

so before the stuff that you read or watch everyday to find out what's going on?

1:19 pm

hokie carla

can the 3rd letter not be u?

1:19 pm

cybernan

oh yes!

1:20 pm

hokie carla

still not helping me though

1:20 pm

1:34 pm

hokie carla

1:34 pm

hokie carla

1:34 pm

moolingwa

1:34 pm

moolingwa
