7:36 am

Meatball421

7:54 am

MollyL

Like any small, dry, hard, one-seeded, indehiscent fruit. As if that will help.

8:03 am

MollyL

Bea, your boyfriend is in the grid today

8:04 am

BzznBea

Sure enough.

8:04 am

BzznBea

And thanks for the ac8.

9:19 am

BzznBea

Why are you isolating?

9:19 am

hokie carla

I had a high fever Thu

9:19 am

hurshy

well i GATBO

9:19 am

hurshy

but did not want to use this ridiculous acronym without you here to enjoy it

9:20 am

hokie carla

9:20 am

hurshy

:D

9:20 am

hokie carla

I need 1 8 and 1 7, which is surprising to me

9:20 am

BzznBea

Did you test?

9:21 am

hokie carla

I had one home test here and it was negative. can't find other options around here right now so just pretending it was positive.

9:23 am

Scrabbler

If you find another rapid antigen test (RAT), swab your throat too. Many experts now advise swabbing throat then nose. Omicron is more likely to be in the throat than nose.

9:25 am

hokie carla

yeah, there just aren't any here

9:26 am

Scrabbler

I ordered 3 batches from iHealth for family.

9:28 am

Scrabbler

But local pharmacies have none.

9:39 am

hokie carla

gila

9:39 am

hokie carla

oops

9:40 am

Scrabbler

I have it.

9:40 am

Scrabbler

I need 7s and 8s.

9:40 am

hokie carla

sadly, it's not a word, even though I always try it

9:41 am

Scrabbler

Oh, my eyes saw gl4

9:41 am

hokie carla

one of the 8s is like a tabloid but different first letter

9:41 am

Scrabbler

TY

9:41 am

hokie carla

one is like a horse of a certain age

9:42 am

hokie carla

and one is weird but was clued here 9:04. I don't have the 4th.

9:44 am

Scrabbler

I have that ac8. What does the horse word start with?

9:44 am

hokie carla

9:47 am

bichon

BPPV?

9:47 am

hokie carla

the vertigo

9:49 am

hokie carla

9:49 am

bichon

Yes, I do remember. Thought you had Omicron

9:49 am

BzznBea

9:49 am

BzznBea

9:49 am

hokie carla

well, i've got 2 things going on, the vertigo and possibly covid

9:50 am

hokie carla

I swear I tried that, thanks, bea

9:51 am

bichon

Did you go to physical therapy for the Epley maneuver?

9:51 am

hokie carla

9:52 am

Aryu76

Hi! I'm new to this... Will there be solutions of todays puzzle tomorrow?

9:52 am

hokie carla

9:52 am

Aryu76

Cool, thanks! :-)

9:53 am

hokie carla

Ooooh, nice! Great, thank you!

10:09 am

Aryu76

thank you! Used to play tangleword over 20 years ago... Kind of missed it lately, and this is where I ended up.

10:09 am

hokie carla

I think a lot of tangleword people ended up at serpentine if you don't know that one.

10:12 am

Aryu76

I'll check it out. I like this for a start, I'm not so fast anymore... :-D

10:13 am

penquis

hello all...

10:13 am

hokie carla

10:48 am

penquis

10:49 am

cybernan

hi carla -- just glanced through the chat. Maybe it's not vertigo --- dizziness and headache are syptoms of omicron.

10:49 am

hokie carla

yeah, I just need 1 Q so I'm trying everything

10:49 am

penquis

look for something with an adjective ending...

10:50 am

cybernan

qu 6/30 x2

10:51 am

penquis

the second would be my guess...

10:51 am

cybernan

still missing one q here though

10:52 am

penquis

yes, i think it's qu 6/30....

10:52 am

cybernan

10:53 am

cybernan

no - I had both 6's - was just letting carla know there are two

10:54 am

penquis

yes, just figured that out...

10:54 am

cybernan

excuse the post errors -- fingers are getting tangled up with themselves today

10:54 am

penquis

no problem at all....

10:58 am

penquis

down to 17 but missing two fours...

10:59 am

Shirlockc

so the ac (sneeze) works but not the pl? i do two ac5 regularly

10:59 am

penquis

10:59 am

penquis

never do just o ne...

11:00 am

cybernan

saw that someone called an ac 8 -- haven't found it yet though

11:00 am

penquis

i have it if you need a clue...

11:01 am

cybernan

yes please

11:02 am

penquis

starts like a pain....ends with the ending for a word meaning the act of saying you didn't do something....

11:02 am

hokie carla

11:02 am

hokie carla

11:03 am

penquis

yes, carla...you are missing the second qu 6/30....my guess....adjective ending....

11:03 am

cybernan

ty pen

11:03 am

cybernan

is that working through the pain?

11:04 am

penquis

not sure what you mean....

11:04 am

penquis

the word is a botanical word...

11:04 am

cybernan

the ac 8 = working through the pain :D

11:04 am

penquis

never seen it before...

11:05 am

penquis

you have to get past the pain and find the ending....LOL

11:06 am

hokie carla

rururocks

sorry to hear that hokie.. hope it's mild for you

12:08 pm

hokie carla

yeah, i'm fine now.

12:08 pm

cybernan

there are so many cases of omicron here now that the health authority is telling us that if we have any of the 8 or so symptoms they listed we should just isolate for 5 days from the onset --- there are just too many people and not enough test kits.

12:09 pm

rururocks

you've been messing around with Novac jokovic

12:10 pm

hokie carla

ha

12:10 pm

cybernan

Did they send him home? I hope so. Someone needs to draw the line.

12:11 pm

rururocks

i don't think so yet.. but I agree with you .. they should send him home

12:11 pm

rururocks

he flies on his personal jet anyway no?

12:11 pm

cybernan

hagd everyone - stay safe. :)

12:12 pm

rururocks

bye nan

12:14 pm

hokie carla

my son was sick on Mon night with a fever and has been isolating all week. I saw him on Sat. and I got sick on Thu. but I also went to the dr for a preventative on Mon, so guessing I got something there.

12:15 pm

hokie carla

flu is here too but I don't think I'd be better the next day if it was the flu

12:16 pm

rururocks

he caught it at school then Hoke?

12:17 pm

hokie carla

no, colleges haven't started back yet and his is going online for at least 2 weeks

12:18 pm

hokie carla

he lives in a house near campus. not sure what he did/where he went for NYE.

12:19 pm

rururocks

oh.. nye.. yikes

12:20 pm

hokie carla

he's not really one to go to bars and such. I think he went to a friend's. he claims no more than 10 people there.

12:29 pm

hokie carla

what is this middle col i I can't see?

12:32 pm

mael

hey friends

12:32 pm

rururocks

12:33 pm

mael

my daughter and I tested positive yesterday too, it's everywhere. She's already good, I've been having a bad sore throat and generally just feeling crummy

12:33 pm

rururocks

hi mael

12:33 pm

mael

hey hokie and ruru!

12:34 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I kinda hope it is it if I'm already better and now have more antibodies

12:35 pm

rururocks

so we don't need to send you some ivermectin hoke?

12:35 pm

hokie carla

well, I noticed winston's heartworm med has it, so I'm good

12:36 pm

mael

I hope that's the end of it for you too hokie

12:36 pm

mael

I;ve got both the kids home for ten days, so there's that

12:37 pm

hokie carla

hope you all are better soon!

12:38 pm

mael

thanks! son and husband are negative, but we assume they gave it to us first

12:48 pm

Soodle

With the rest of the world coming down with imocron, my family & I have been struck down with Delta. Despite all the adults being doubly vaxxed & boosted. The poor little 3 month old grandson is very unwell.

12:48 pm

mael

gosh soodle, I am so sorry

12:48 pm

hokie carla

sorry to hear that, soodle!

12:49 pm

hokie carla

I read that 95% of US cases are omicron now but no idea how they would know that when there aren't even enough tests to test everyone.

12:50 pm

mael

I'm assuming they are sequencing samples of tests from different regions and extrapolating percentages

12:51 pm

hokie carla

yes, I'm sure there's math and stats involved 😁

12:51 pm

Soodle

It was only when I was eating a pizza (shop-bought frozen variety) that I noticed my sense of taste was gone. I actually wondered if I had cooked the cardboard box, there was so little taste.

12:51 pm

origami

Sorry to hear that Soodle. Didn't you have Covid early on?

12:51 pm

hokie carla

ugh, well hopefully that will come back for you soon

12:51 pm

Soodle

Nope Ori. I had

12:52 pm

Soodle

We had all escaped till now. Thanks for tge good wishes. 😀

12:53 pm

rururocks

are you sure you didn't eat the box? :D

12:53 pm

Soodle

Every cloud etc - A great kick start to my 2022 diet.

12:54 pm

hokie carla

how's your smell and taste, mael? I heard it's not as common to lose it with omicron.

12:54 pm

Soodle

I double checked, Ru. I can confirm I didn’t eat the box.

12:54 pm

rururocks

yeah.. delta you do lose your sense of smell and taste..

12:55 pm

rururocks

here in the US.. sometimes it's hard to tell which is better the pizza or the box

12:56 pm

hokie carla

just think if you had to eat gluten free pizza, ru. actually freshetta frozen gf pizza is better than most all gf pizza, incl. pizza places.

12:57 pm

Soodle

I hear you, Ru. But I just felt so grotty, I was looking for something quick, fuss free & filling.

12:57 pm

rururocks

i never do take out pizza or store bought.. so I don't know.. I am glad I don't have a gluten problem though

12:58 pm

rururocks

I do love pizza but so does my gut so I stay away from it

12:59 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I feel you on that

12:59 pm

mael

my smell and taste is fine so far

12:59 pm

rururocks

if I lost my sense of taste you could just kill me then

12:59 pm

mael

I made fresh pasta and meatsauce for dinner last night, figuring that if I was going to lose my sense of taste I'd better go out with a bang

12:59 pm

mael

it may take a while but most people who lose their sense of taste from covid do recover it

1:00 pm

MollyL

The box is definitely better than any frozen pizza

1:00 pm

Soodle

Hopefully my ‘mother of the groom’ outfit will be a size or two lower come September.

1:00 pm

hokie carla

I am currently eating M&Ms and they are still good.

1:01 pm

rururocks

my one close friend who caught it twice said the sense of taste came back fairly quickly, but his brain was really foggy for a couple of months.. even trying to figure out simple things

1:02 pm

hokie carla

I really have had a lot of trouble with word games since I got sick, so maybe it's brain fog.

1:03 pm

Soodle

Brain fog really IS a thing. I’m trying to watch Stay Close on Netflix. I keep having to rewind to remember what happened 15 minutes ago. Ugh

1:03 pm

MollyL

Mmm, M&M's. I've been off sugar for over a week. Boring life.

1:04 pm

hokie carla

well, brain fog was already a thing with celiac disease so I've had it before.

1:04 pm

hokie carla

that's horrible molly!

1:04 pm

MollyL

Healthy eating is a total drag.

1:04 pm

rururocks

I gave up Tequilla for a new year's resolution.. but I never drink tequilla anyway

1:04 pm

mael

my condolences, molly

1:05 pm

hokie carla

for some reason, I think you burn more calories while just hanging out in bed while you're sick, so I've been eating sweets like crazy.

1:05 pm

rururocks

thankfully I had Scotch to fall back on

1:05 pm

hokie carla

yes, I know it's not possible

1:05 pm

rururocks

you're already too sweet as it is hokie

1:06 pm

mael

it would be real easy for me to give up tequila too, I haven't had any in 10 years or so. Now beer...

1:06 pm

rururocks

the last time I had tequilla I was 17

1:06 pm

hokie carla

in other news, mr. homie went to see a house in our old neighborhood and wants to make an offer. so now that I've almost got my sewing room completely set up, I will have to start packing it again if we get the house.

1:07 pm

MollyL

Tequila makes me gag

1:07 pm

hokie carla

I'm so glad for calorie purposes that I don't like to drink

1:07 pm

rururocks

why do you guys move so much hokes?

1:08 pm

MollyL

I thought you weren't unpacking much in the temporary house. And yeah, why do you move so much?

1:08 pm

hokie carla

well, this house was just meant to be temporary. we became empty nesters and wanted to downsize while the market was hot.

1:08 pm

Soodle

My son swears by poitín. We all came down with Covid this day last week. He took 3 shots of the vile stuff, and although still testing positive, is the only one of us able to function. Somebody should tell the WHO.

1:08 pm

hokie carla

we were in the last house for 14 years!

1:09 pm

rururocks

what's poitin?

1:09 pm

MollyL

*Makes a mental note that I now have a good reason to buy poteen

1:10 pm

MollyL

It's Irish moonshine Ru

1:11 pm

rururocks

oh..

1:11 pm

hokie carla

and yes, molly, I wasn't going to unpack it but then mr. homie said we would just stay here and motorhome more so I started unpacking, but he's decided he just hates this neighborhood. and I'm not a huge fan of the house.

1:11 pm

MollyL

Usually about 90% alcohol

1:11 pm

Soodle

Illegally brewed hooch, Ru. He has a friend who makes it & he brings liters of the stuff back to the UK with him everybtime he drives home. It’s dreadful stuff altogether, but he swears by it.

1:11 pm

rururocks

sounds awful

1:12 pm

hokie carla

wonder how it compares to appalachian moonshine

1:13 pm

Soodle

That sounds unsettling, Carla. I hope you guys find your forever home.

1:13 pm

rururocks

My house just went up in value by $300K this year alone, i hope this hold so I can sell and move when I retire

1:13 pm

hokie carla

well, we're not looking for a forever one right now, but I definitely want one I can settle into for a while

1:15 pm

MollyL

Poteen is made from cereals, grain, whey, sugar beet, molasses and potatoes. So yeah, kind of awful. But very potent, as it's name suggests.

1:15 pm

rururocks

i hate moving so you wouldn't see me moving that much hokie.. it's a huge PITA

1:16 pm

rururocks

<---did remember his first acronym after LOL

1:16 pm

MollyL

I am not a big fan of moving around a lot either.

1:16 pm

hokie carla

yes it is. we moved ourselves last time but will spring for movers this time since it's too soon for us to forget how horrible it is.

1:18 pm

Soodle

I’ve been in this house for 30 years now. Last year, I got major renovation work done. I decided to declutter ruthlessly. It took 6 medium sized dumpsters to get where I wanted to be. My kids (all home-owners in their own right) were invited to come & claim their ‘treasures’. None of them did, so they were all dumped. It was cathartic.

1:25 pm

MollyL

The days of moving myself are long gone. I did it enough times when my joints were in better shape.

1:30 pm

rururocks

i couldn't move myself anymore.. it's too much for me now.. I am planning just one more move (I hope)

1:31 pm

hokie carla

I joked our moving company was Two Old People and a Truck

1:31 pm

MollyL

I would love to move one more time. But I doubt I will be able to afford it. I don't have the money for house hopping.

1:32 pm

hokie carla

we are definitely too old for that

1:32 pm

MollyL

Then why did you do it? It seems like you can afford movers.

1:35 pm

hokie carla

because we're in denial about how old we are and thought we could do it with our 2 grown boys. of course one was away and the other decided to hurt his back weight lifting the day we had planned for all the big stuff.

1:36 pm

rururocks

Knows which of hokie's kid is the "smart" one :D

1:38 pm

MollyL

Seriously. If my parents could afford movers and enlisted my help to schlep heavy furniture, I would get a "hurt back" too.

1:40 pm

hokie carla

we did decide we are never moving a washing machine again, so will have to buy a new W&D if we move

1:44 pm

rururocks

gotta run out for the day.. have fun everyone

1:44 pm

hokie carla
