It's that 8 month old Christmas hat you're still wearing. It's doing strange things to your brain.

7:24 am

MollyL

Oh okay, now we have Dutch words in the grid. I guess we are all supposed to be multi-lingual.

7:25 am

EvaNadine

may also have something to do with having to call a plumber to look at the dishwasher thats leaking into my kitchen + through the basement ceiling below -- after i spent MONTHS over the past year with those exact things torn out after my fridge leaked all over the place.

7:26 am

MollyL

I swear to God, I would go back to renting in a heartbeat but current rents are higher than my mortgage payment.

7:27 am

EvaNadine

i hear that!
when my ex + i split, we were going to sell the house until i looked at prices...i decided if im gonna be house-poor id rather do so with more space + possible equity.

8:26 am

I've found 37 so far... feels like a long way to go

8:27 am

BzznBea

morning, friends

8:27 am

marksdolly

39 of em found here so far

8:27 am

marksdolly

mostly common words, Hokie, :)

8:27 am

hokie carla

howdy bea, and folks

8:27 am

marksdolly

hi Hokie!

8:27 am

hokie carla

hello dolly

8:28 am

mael

hey hey

8:28 am

hokie carla

lol, just had a c word in green when I am trying to find o's and realized it was a typo

8:31 am

dcseain

good morning. barely slept. going to go make coffee, and I think a spot of food.

8:31 am

hokie carla

hey seain

8:32 am

hurshy

*hugs* seain, sorry you had a bad night

8:32 am

hurshy

woot, just hit 50 C words

8:33 am

mael

wow!

8:33 am

mael

go hurshy go

8:40 am

hokie carla

well, I made it to 38 c's and am moving on

8:43 am

mael

grayed the bottom row at least

8:43 am

mael

but now I'm typing with a cat on my keyboard

8:43 am

hokie carla

noice

8:45 am

hokie carla

well, just found 10 w's right off the bat, but as usual can't finish it

8:45 am

hokie carla

ooh, there it is

8:46 am

mael

yeah, they were not too bad today!

8:46 am

mael

not many ways for that W to go

8:46 am

hokie carla

yep

8:47 am

mael

a catlog: enumerates the felines in one's house

8:47 am

hokie carla

if you find you have too many you might need to decat

8:48 am

mael

no such thing as too many!

8:48 am

hokie carla

eww, I'd say there is

8:49 am

mael

I mean, sure, you're right. Be we'd need to be in double digits

8:50 am

hokie carla

definitely 10 is too many

8:52 am

mael

the kids and I are working on convincing my husband to get a third cat

8:52 am

mael

ideally to bring balance to the force, because our two cats do not get along

8:52 am

hokie carla

but how do you know they will get along with the 3rd and vice versa

8:53 am

mael

we don't! haha

8:53 am

hokie carla

exactly

8:53 am

mael

and it's not really true, our young cat loves our older cat but she wants to play and old lady emphatically Does Not

8:54 am

mael

so adding another younger cat might help give older cat a break

8:55 am

MollyL

I agree with Carla on the too many cats thing

8:56 am

MollyL

I went to a woman's house once who had 9 cats, oh my God, the smell

8:57 am

hokie carla

my brother has too many cats and dogs and last time I went to his house I almost gagged

8:58 am

mael

oh I bet. I was mostly being facetious because I like cats. 3 or 4 well kept ones is the max, with enough space and cleaning the litter boxes every day

8:58 am

hokie carla

whew, good to know😜

8:59 am

MollyL

Caring for that many animals the right way is a full-time job in itself.

8:59 am

hokie carla

8:59 am

mael

9:03 am

mael

9:04 am

MollyL

Still lame 😋

9:04 am

mael

it's the "getting" that we're refuting haha

9:06 am

MollyL

My favorite quote of the Business World week..."a sentence with more than one acronym in it does not ooze intelligence". 😊

9:07 am

mael

rich coming from the Business World with their jargon!

9:07 am

mael

everyone circling back to shift the paradigms...

9:07 am

hokie carla

I was going to say the business world is the worst for that stuff

9:08 am

mael

I work in the field and they are horrid

9:12 am

hokie carla

9:28 am

mael

must have been an7 poster :)

9:28 am

hokie carla

well, google translate gave me a different spelling then there was a different spelling below that with a j, and then I finally figured it out from that.

9:30 am

MollyL

Well aren't you the cleverest little thing?

9:32 am

mael

FW!

9:32 am

BzznBea

Goches is not a word. Was a word for me.

hi all... I'm down to 22 and seem to be ground to a halt

5:54 pm

penquis

hi nrkii...

5:54 pm

penquis

i am stalled at 45....

5:58 pm

hokie carla

I decided to list

5:58 pm

penquis

i had a burst of luck....down to 41....going to list as well...

5:58 pm

nrkii

down to 19...

5:59 pm

nrkii

I'd love to get one more C and one more T before I list

6:00 pm

hokie carla

there's a set of 3 T's that I'd never heard of that has to do with a dowry if that helps

6:00 pm

nrkii

TA? TO? TH?

6:00 pm

hokie carla

my other T was an adj version of the powder

6:01 pm

penquis

is that the pt?

6:01 pm

hokie carla

TO is the set of 3

6:01 pm

nrkii

I have the powder past tense :)

6:01 pm

penquis

me, too...

6:01 pm

nrkii

thanks, will look...

6:02 pm

hokie carla

not a past tense, but an adj meaning containing the powder

6:02 pm

hokie carla

or I guess technically the mineral

6:02 pm

penquis

i think i found those....TO words....ty for the nudge...

6:03 pm

penquis

not a pt ending then?

6:03 pm

nrkii

ohhhh, ta7... nice

6:03 pm

hokie carla

no, the pt is a 6. nellie got it, ta7.

6:03 pm

penquis

oh...i have that one, too...

6:03 pm

nrkii

and ugh, I already had the TO series, courtesy of my monkeys

6:04 pm

nrkii

but I knocked out a T, so just need a C and can list

6:04 pm

penquis

6:04 pm

nrkii

I only have 2 CA words

6:04 pm

hokie carla

how many c's do you have left, nellie? I still have 4 (started at the bottom of the list).

6:05 pm

penquis

i have three CA words...but still missing two Cs....

6:05 pm

nrkii

3 to go... trying to get to 2 or less on each tile before I list and that's the only one left

6:05 pm

nrkii

6:06 pm

penquis

i have a CA 4...

6:06 pm
