12:32 am

sprite

sun's hiding behind lots of rain clouds

12:33 am

justafreep

oh. well, that's not what I'm gonna have here in the morning....

12:33 am

justafreep

I'll save ya some sun and send it your way

12:34 am

sprite

dutch summers often are like this. A few crazy hot and humid days, thunderstorms, rain, a whole bunch of wet and cold days, rinse, repeat

12:34 am

justafreep

Ours are... uh... like that except they're all sunny and dry :-)

12:35 am

sprite

lolol

12:43 am

sprite

thanks for sharing :D Want some rain and cold in exchange?

12:49 am

grannyrose

* hugs * sprite. g'day and cooee from me. how are you today?

12:50 am

sprite

hi sweetie :) Am still under the weather a bit. Had a bit of a bumpy day yesterday. Had to report a neighbour to CPS, which was triggering. How are you doing?

12:51 am

grannyrose

nearly 8 weeks into my 12 week cycle. enough said?

12:52 am

sprite

you had a great great run this time!

12:54 am

grannyrose

not a lot of pain, but very interrupted nights. hot, then cold, hot then cold. mostly my feet.

12:55 am

dcseain

hello. doing a few before i sleep. I think the washer just stopped. So i guess i’ll wait for the dryer and move laundry around before sleep.

12:55 am

sprite

yeah that is nasty. Still, not a bad thing that there is still not too much pain. I am impressed with this run, and with you

12:56 am

sprite

hiya seain!

12:56 am

grannyrose

hey seain.

12:56 am

dcseain

goedemorgen, sprite

12:56 am

dcseain

g’day, rose

12:57 am

sprite

wow seain, great dutch there!

12:57 am

grannyrose

went to gym today, was pretty achy and tired when arrived. but the exercises loosened me up. much more comfortable.

12:57 am

sprite

good to hear, hun

12:58 am

dcseain

yay exercise! it’s good for the joints too.

12:58 am

grannyrose

however i have a large knot in my muscles at the nape of my neck. Don has been massaging on and off. he says it's really firm.

12:59 am

grannyrose

hmmm did you say a heat pack? clever girl !

1:01 am

grannyrose

seain, that is the main reason for my program. it's very comprehensive including just about every joint in the body.

1:01 am

dcseain

very nice!

1:01 am

dcseain

i have osteoarthritis in my shoulders, so exercise for that.

1:02 am

sprite

sounds painful

1:02 am

dcseain

it was at first. i take ibuprofen to reduce swelling. It hurts more in Summer due to higher pressure.

1:03 am

sprite

I can understand that

1:03 am

dcseain

painful enough at first that i went to doctor, and xrays showed, though my muscles and tendons are in great shape for my age.

1:04 am

grannyrose

a lot of people just don't get the reasoning behind exercises. stimulating blood flow to an area, particularly joints increases the production of synovial fluid which "oils" our joints, thus making it less painful and easier to move.

1:04 am

dcseain

exactly, rose

1:06 am

grannyrose

i have to laugh at some of the ladies in my group. they have never once increased the challenge of their exercises. some are still using 1/2 kilo weights, and still only doing 10 reps. just not pushing themselves at all.

1:17 am

sprite

fireflies and poofing

1:26 am

grannyrose

* hugs * sprite. i hope you continue to heal. xoxox

5:06 am

ChampFit

I'm sure you're already long gone grannyrose, but you are 100% right about the increase in excercise! I see it all the time, and wonder why on earth they bother?

5:22 am

MollyL

Well, I guess it's better than no exercise at all

5:28 am

ChampFit

But to go in and do the same thing every time, when it's clearly not a strain at all, is pointless. I don't get it.

5:38 am

ChampFit

BBL for last 16.

7:06 am

MollyL

Some of the elders are very regimented. Same oatmeal for breakfast every morning, same ten reps of exercise every day. There is some comfort in routine I guess.

7:20 am

periwinkle

8:33 am

hokie carla

struggling with the single O and then see there are 3 below that one. how? why?

8:33 am

hurshy

oh there are two more b!

8:34 am

hurshy

the single O is a plural of one where the singular comes from the left O

8:34 am

hurshy

the 3 O below it are a group, oe6, 7, 8

8:34 am

hokie carla

that's how. I just ignored the OE.

8:35 am

hurshy

not surprising

8:35 am

hokie carla

well, found the 6/7. will work on the 8 later.

8:35 am

hurshy

think plural of the marks of christ in the hands

8:36 am

12:32 pm

Shirlockc

yes it's jon snow in GoT

12:32 pm

ch1212

1:43 pm

hokie carla

Now I’m singing Elton John. Sataday sataday

2:14 pm

hokie carla

Does the to have a 7 with it?

2:18 pm

cybernan

hi everyone :)

2:20 pm

cybernan

apparently that oe 8 is linked to the 6-7, but I haven't been able to find it

2:22 pm

cybernan

should have said something sooer - just monkeyed it!

2:23 pm

cybernan

worked with the ed's too :)

2:46 pm

cybernan

st 7 please?

2:49 pm

cybernan

or the ta 6-7?

2:49 pm

2:49 pm

melody17

neds

2:51 pm

cybernan

so need the be 6

2:57 pm

moolingwa

2:57 pm

3:02 pm

hokie carla

3:02 pm

hokie carla

I reckon I need that japanese set

3:03 pm

cybernan

3:03 pm

hokie carla

ah, thanls

3:03 pm

cybernan

need the st 7/32 now

3:03 pm

hokie carla

now TT S DD 1-0-1-2-1

3:04 pm

hokie carla

I guess that is my S and maybe moo's unless he found it

3:06 pm

moolingwa

nope, that's what I need

3:06 pm

hokie carla

so either my T's or my D's are not a set

3:07 pm

hokie carla

since I definitely need ST7

3:07 pm

hokie carla

so my 4 is either a T or D. how hard could it be?

3:08 pm

cybernan

looked it up and I don't even know how to clue it

3:08 pm

hokie carla

found the 4!

3:09 pm

hokie carla

so is the TO8 a plural?

3:09 pm

moolingwa

si

3:09 pm

ChampFit

3:10 pm

moolingwa

new one for me

3:10 pm

cybernan

me too

3:10 pm

moolingwa

a tragedy (greek) I didn't think of that earlier

3:10 pm

hokie carla

good clue though

3:11 pm

moolingwa

excellent clue, and a very difficult word to clue

3:11 pm

moolingwa

perhaps a nazi's mother?

3:11 pm

moolingwa

but that's pretty obscure

3:12 pm

hokie carla

ok, I have a comida to7 but not sure I can make it plural

3:12 pm

hokie carla

and I still need another to7, so Imma assume the 8 goes with that one

3:12 pm

ChampFit

yes, there's a 7-8

3:14 pm

hokie carla

and is this something I should be seeing?

3:15 pm

moolingwa

feminine

3:15 pm

moolingwa

not all is masculine :)

3:16 pm

ChampFit

The 8 goes with the first one. It's 7-8-7

3:16 pm

hokie carla

well, I was pretty sure I tried that this morning, but as usual just need to type everything a million times just in case

3:18 pm

ChampFit

I do that all the time. Typing things that end up not being there later. BUT...just got FW. Good luck all!

3:19 pm

hokie carla
