					hey flosey, christine, ruru, smores
				 
							
					12:58 am

					Rururocks, the secret is like the answer to TV shows that offen - use the off button, or glide over the comments. Oh well
				 
							
					12:59 am
					rururocks
					
					hi granny
				 
							
					12:59 am

					that's my point exactly christine

					Hello, all. I'm slogging away, have only 74 words, and only 5 are sixes.
				 
							
					1:00 am
					rururocks
					
					some people forget that this is a game.. the title is Babble the Ultimate word game 
				 
							
							
					1:00 am
					Christine
					
					I don't know what started the uproar - I came in about the time it got going, I read back in the comments, and there was no lead-up?
				 
							
					1:00 am
					smores
					
					hmm....musta missed something
				 
							
					1:01 am
					Christine
					
					Well, as I said later, I occasionally clue when I find a good word, I use the clues given, and generally don't chat that much. But this evening !!!
				 
							
					1:01 am
					rururocks
					
					not from me.. I was just defending myself
				 
							
					1:02 am
					smores
					
					<----dazed and confused
				 
							
					1:02 am
					grannyrose
					
					oh, de4...did i miss something AGAIN? i never get to see the smoke and flames......
				 
							
					1:02 am
					Christine
					
					Smores, it was just a silly blow-up. And as we said, just glide over whatever offends you - unless it's hurtful to someone. But puns are just a silly play on words. I think that was all it was.
				 
							
					1:03 am
					Christine
					
					It was foolishness, but I think it'll blow over. I hope so.
				 
							
					1:03 am
					smores
					
					np....lol...I reside in the state of Confusion quite often
				 
							
					1:04 am
					grannyrose
					
					so we have a language problem again? puns not being taken as such.....this is so silly.
				 
							
					1:04 am
					smores
					
					and definately don't take things too seriously of offensively...sooo...Babble on!!
				 
							
					1:06 am
					grannyrose
					
					smores, working on the confusion...would just tipsy do?
				 
							
					1:06 am
					Christine
					
					But there wasn't anything said that could be misconstrued, nothing at all risqué.

					2:01 am

					I don't cook any more because of my hands but I've found a gourmet market close by that does up great gifts.  I try to get some for the neighbors and friends.
				 
							
					2:01 am
					Lizlin
					
					Is anyone else finding this grid tricky?
				 
							
					2:02 am
					flosey
					
					lovely idea,  and much easier when you have a great shop like that
				 
							
					2:02 am
					gapeach
					
					This grid is a witch, Lizlin.  Well, that is only my opinion.
				 
							
					2:02 am
					gapeach
					
					Indeed, flosey.
				 
							
					2:02 am
					Lizlin

					2:03 am
					grannyrose
					
					i don't cook anymore because i don't have an oven i can trust, no cooktop. just an electric hotplate( a single) an electric oven which is horrible, and electric frypan, vegetable steamer, horizontal grill.

					Hi there, rbud.
				 
							
					2:06 am
					Lizlin
					
					Rose, is your no-cook strategy working?
				 
							
					2:06 am
					grannyrose
					
					hey rbud.
				 
							
							
					2:06 am
					Lizlin
					
					Obviously not! 
				 
							
					2:07 am
					rbud
					
					oh, heck, we've been in this house 20+ years now, and things planned back then are still in the remodel stage... may never finish, sigh...
				 
							
					2:07 am
					flosey
					
					I love the double sink in kitchen,  we built when we moved here so I was able to say what I wanted - and have a lovely big kitchen
				 
							
					2:08 am
					rbud
					
					my dishwasher has been sitting in the shed for 5 years, the washer and dryer sat for 7 before finally getting installed...
				 
							
					2:08 am
					grannyrose
					
					well the bathroom is nearly finished. think i will get the lounge and bedroom done next. mostly only painting and a bit of new furniture. then will have to plan an extended respite session for mother mac while the kitchen is done.
				 
							
					2:08 am
					flosey
					
					oh rbud,  how frustrating
				 
							
					2:08 am
					Lizlin
					
					I guess we're a bit like that too! But the kitchen was a must. The previous one was awful and I couldn't live with it! And it was sooooo dirty when we moved in.
				 
							
					2:09 am
					rbud
					
					but just yesterday the planned heated sidewalk from the shop to the house was finally poured! it's beautiful.
				 
							
					2:09 am
					Lizlin
					
					Sounds like you've done a lot Rose :)
				 
							
					2:09 am
					Lizlin
					
					that sounds pretty awesome rbud :)
				 
							
					2:10 am
					flosey
					
					well,  we've been here since '95  and the downstairs fireplace has not been finished -  we use it,  it's a closed thing in an inset -  that's what hasn't been finished,  use the stove a lot
				 
							
					2:10 am
					flosey
					
					lovely rbud
				 
							
					2:10 am
					rbud
					
					it will be wonderful if it works properly, no shoveling for Hubby's electric chair, yay!

					10:06 am

					10:09 am

					Nope, Hego, you are mature enough to not let your ego interfere with enjoying life.
				 
							
					10:10 am

					No Hego, big difference between lazy and non-competitive. And what Scrabs said. 
				 
							
					10:10 am

					The exception to the general rule that one should use an apostrophe to indicate possession is in possessive pronouns. Some of them are not a problem. “Mine†has no misleading “s†at the end to invite an apostrophe. And few people are tempted to write “hi’s,†though the equally erroneous “her’s†is fairly common, as are “our’s†and “their’sâ€â€”all wrong, wrong, wrong. The problem with avoiding “it’s†as a possessive is that this spelling is perfectly correct as a contraction meaning “it is.†Just remember one point and you’ll never make this mistake again: “it’s†always means “it is†or “it has†and nothing else.

					I love farm markets and have a great one near me.
				 
							
					3:10 pm
					crosshair
					
					it is the only way to go hego.free range animals,organic fed.you can really tell the difference in chicken and pork .eggs laid that morning and home made meat pies
				 
							
					3:11 pm
					hego
					
					yes, I buy natural pork and chicken too.
				 
							
					3:11 pm
					crosshair
					
					our supermarket chicken has gotten so greasy no matter how you cook it,we will not buy it
				 
							
					3:11 pm
					hego
					
					or Perdue, the chicken torturers.
				 
							
					3:12 pm
					crosshair
					
					i do not knwo the why of it,i guess they dit around in boxes all day and it is mostly fat?
				 
							
							
					3:12 pm
					hego
					
					so fat they can hardly stand.
				 
							
					3:12 pm
					crosshair
					
					so now i do not mind paying the extra for free range organic
				 
							
					3:13 pm
					hego
					
					much healthier for all.
				 
							
					3:13 pm
					crosshair
					
					and the eggs work out cheaper when you buy them by the flat.you get a dozen free
				 
							
					3:13 pm
					hego
					
					you must eat lots of eggs.
				 
							
					3:14 pm
					hego
					
					how do you keep them?
				 
							
					3:14 pm
					crosshair
					
					and they support a micro independant dairy and the milk still comes in glass pint and quart jars;))
				 
							
					3:14 pm
					MollyL
					
					We have that dozen free thing at our Amish market too. But it's too many eggs for just two people. 
				 
							
					3:14 pm
					crosshair
					
					keep them?? lol they last 2 weeks
				 
							
					3:14 pm
					hego
					
					me too Molly
				 
							
					3:14 pm

					3:15 pm

					my nephew raises his own in the back yard.
				 
							
					3:15 pm
					crosshair
					
					i mean a cake takes 3 eggs,a yorkshire pud batch takes 3 eggs.they go fast
				 
							
					3:16 pm
					crosshair
					
					we used to raise our own hego,but it is a fair bit of work and not allowed inside larger town limits now
				 
							
					3:17 pm
					hego
					
					It's allowed here because not many people do it.
				 
							
					3:18 pm
					crosshair
					
					the egg farm we use supports 4 towns  and the market they run,so all go there.it is sort of central 30 min drive for me
				 
							
					3:19 pm
					crosshair
					
					the mennonite ladies make the breads and dessert and meat pies..my god! i go in and blame them for making me fluffy
				 
							
					3:20 pm

					no, i love fluffy.  lol
				 
							
					3:22 pm
					MollyL
					
					I don't bake so much that I would use up that many eggs in baking. And we only have eggs for breakfast a couple of times a week. So a dozen a week works fine for two of us. I buy more if I'm going to bake or make something that requires a lot of eggs. 
				 
							
							
					3:22 pm
					MollyL
					
					I do treat us to the Amish eggs on occasion though. They are much better than store bought. 
				 
							
					3:23 pm
					crosshair
					
					indeed each to their own.i bake twice a week and eggs are for breakfast in one form or another about 4 times a week.the other 3 days are my guilty pennance brekkies

At no4/4 time, during lunch, I gl 5/14 the chog for clues and find more words.  When I get home, I take my po 6/24 out for a walk and then I le4/4 on Lickety's list to help me finish the grid. Da /45 it! Hubby just walked in the do 4/5 and has ma 4/6 it known that he wants to sit do 4/9 at the computer.  I fe 4/7 what he will do if I don't give him computer.

					Gran Mere, pecans and cranberries in oatmeal cookies are the best. It's my favorite way to make them. 
				 
							
					4:43 pm

					Hi Molly.  Trying to work the grid and ignoring the chat.  oh my thanks for the chat.  Carlee I like the idea of pistachio--I do love biscotti.
				 
							
					4:46 pm

					biscotti are an italian revenge to get rid of stale bread sticks lol
				 
							
					4:54 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					Hey...I like biscotti!! Real homemade that is...
				 
							
					4:54 pm
					MollyL
					
					Is it just me, or does it take longer to decorate the tree every year? 
				 
							
					4:55 pm
					MollyL
					
					<---Agrees about the stale bread sticks
				 
							
					4:56 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					It took forever to get the lights on....if we ever get a fake tree it'll be one with lights...plus I havea about a gazillion themes of decorations and of course..can't find the white snowflakes anywhere...
				 
							
					4:56 pm
					crosshair
					
					not here molly.once the boy got older we got a artificial tree 4 feet tall in a ceramic potted base.i string the mini lights in it permanantly and have a box of balls,one of ribbons,one of misc stuff and can whip it out of the box,stand it on an end table and have it plugged in and fully decorated in 15 minutes!
				 
							
					4:57 pm
					MollyL
					
					That's funny. I just send my son our annual RIGGING UP THE LIGHTS email and told him that some year I am getting a pre-lit tree. 
				 
							
							
					4:58 pm
					wvteach
					
					had been one that said NO artificial tree - now we wouldn't have one if it weren't for it being pre-lit, take it out of the box - then enjoy adding the decorations
				 
							
					4:59 pm
					MollyL
					
					A table top tree sounds nice and easy, but none of my kids would come home for Christmas if I did that. They are funny that way. : )
				 
							
					5:00 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					I know, mine are absolutely stuck on all the traditions I foolishly adhered to...
				 
							
					5:00 pm
					MollyL
					
					What were we thinking Jill? If we had raised them on minimalist Christmas, life would be so much easier now. 
: D
				 
							
					5:01 pm
					crosshair
					
					lol they are funny that way? well then they can all come over one week and decorate the 22 foot blue spruce in the vaulted celing livingroom for you lol
				 
							
					5:01 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					LOL....well, on the other hand, it's nice that they have memories...
				 
							
					5:02 pm
					crosshair
					
					if it is adult kids we are talking about
				 
							
					5:02 pm
					MollyL
					
					If I could afford a house with a vaulted ceiling that would take a 22 foot tree, I would hire decorators and have cocktails while I watched them trim the tree. 
				 
							
					5:02 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					the other tradition we started is every year since they were born we have bought (er um Santa bought) them an ornament. So now they have 26 and 30 after this Christmas
				 
							
							
					5:03 pm
					carleekat
					
					hi jilly...and I like biscotti too... is YUMMY
				 
							
					5:03 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					The only problem I have with their ornaments is that they are still storing them here!
				 
							
					5:03 pm
					wvteach
					
					Have the two grandkids put up and decorate the tree and they love doing that - and remembering the decorations they've made over the years
				 
							
					5:05 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					I could have waited til #1 son came home next Sat, but...mom wanted the house all nice for him...BUT guess who is helping put it all away...
				 
							
					5:08 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					This grid must be in honor of Hanekkah...everything is read to the left...
				 
							
					5:09 pm
					MollyL
					
					Helpers are nice, Teach. My son helps with the heavy lifting and the "tall guy" stuff. Then he puts a few ornaments on the tree and the rest is up to me. : )
				 
							
					5:12 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					Yep, #1 son is 6 ft and 200#, he will be a blessing in putting things away...our storage room is overflowing...
				 
							
					5:15 pm
					wvteach
					
					These helpers are 14 and 6, but with the artificial tree it is quite doable.   The older does the top and the younger the bottom to decorate - and they enjoy doing it
				 
							
					5:17 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					That sounds wonderful...I'm now convinced that I may never have grandkids...I'd love to have some to pass down our traditions..

					hi again all@
				 
							
							
					5:19 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					Hi uusue, what did doc say?
				 
							
					5:19 pm
					uusue2
					
					he had me poke around in it and drain it some more, and will see us in the morning
				 
							
					5:20 pm
					uusue2
					
					after I cleaned it up it didn't look quite as bad but it's still a lot redder than I would like
				 
							
					5:20 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					You should earn a nursing degree after this!!
				 
							
					5:20 pm
					uusue2
					
					I think so, Jill!
				 
							
					5:21 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					There can be some irritation, thinks like odor, temp and increased drainage that is less red &/or cloudy are real indicators
				 
							
					5:21 pm
					carleekat
					
					ok... back
				 
							
							
					5:21 pm
					uusue2
					
					hi carlee!
				 
							
					5:21 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					Is he still on antibiotics? Maybe they should run a culture on the wound...
				 
							
					5:21 pm
					uusue2
					
					well, it is still draining but it is clear, so probably ok. Would be nice if it would heal, though.
				 
							
					5:22 pm
					uusue2
					
					no, antibiotics are done
				 
							
							
					5:22 pm
					Jillyjill
					
					Then a culture is in order....just in case..
				 
							
					5:22 pm
					uusue2
					
					sorry about the medical details, everyone else :-)
				 
							
					5:23 pm
