12:57 am

12:57 am

12:57 am

12:58 am

sprite

hiya seain!

12:58 am

grannyrose

hey ya dcs!

12:58 am

grannyrose

ream

12:59 am

grannyrose

oh dear... i'm on a roll...have a freebie

12:59 am

dcseain

ooh. grey L and F

1:00 am

dcseain

alas, want to play more, and chat, but need sleep. Happy Babbling, sprite, rose, and all yall.

1:01 am

sprite

sleep well, seain, and dream even better

1:01 am

grannyrose

sweet dreams dcseain. thanks for dropping by.

1:06 am

sprite

so how are you feeling, rose? How is the treatment going?

1:07 am

grannyrose

feeling very good. getting a lot of positive feedback from nurses too. it's nice for them to notice how much i have improved.

1:08 am

sprite

that is awesome! Well done you.

1:08 am

grannyrose

thank-you sweetheart. i am learning to like me again,

1:09 am

sprite

*hits rose over the head with a smelly guppy* You are lovely and lovable in any shape and form.

1:11 am

grannyrose

had a lovely talk with my music therapist today. she is so sweet. instead of playing music we have got into the habit of just chatting. she had some very nice things to say to me.

1:11 am

sprite

that is lovely

1:12 am

grannyrose

but next time she has promised to bring i her reverie harp, and we will have a lovely session with her own music being played, and she has a beautiful contralto voice.

1:13 am

sprite

love it

1:15 am

grannyrose

sprite, i think you would have been so proud of me. i was chatting with middle son, Simon, and was able to finally tell him how i was afraid of being rejected. as his father had rejected me, i was scared that when i call to say i wanted to visit he would say no, and that feeling of being rejected would engulf me.

1:16 am

sprite

oh wow. What did he say?

1:16 am

grannyrose

he hasn't yet. i think it's percolating through.

1:17 am

sprite

well done, you.

1:18 am

grannyrose

and as i said to him, i am dealing with the fact i am now only two years younger than my dad was when he died, and i feel like time is running out.

1:19 am

sprite

*hugs*

1:20 am

grannyrose

thanks honey. i knew you would understand.

1:20 am

sprite

maybe the two of you can find a way of formulating that gives him the chance to say "now is not a good time" without you feeling rejected.

1:21 am

grannyrose

yes, that would be good. but for now i'm letting him process some pretty heavy stuff.

1:29 am

sprite

fireflies.

1:30 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE !!!

1:31 am

sprite

love and hugs, my darling. Have a peaceful night and a blessed day.

1:31 am

grannyrose

* hugs * back at you. hope you have a lovely day. xx

9:00 am

hokie carla

I have left 2 gray

9:00 am

hokie carla

11 total left

9:00 am

mael

nice

9:00 am

mael

did you find any 9s? I have one

9:01 am

hokie carla

I found 1

9:02 am

hokie carla

can only find one T from 3rd row so wondering if that's a T8/9 there

9:02 am

hokie carla

or maybe a 7/8

9:02 am

mael

there is, that's the one I have

9:02 am

mael

oh wait no

9:02 am

hokie carla

ah, ok

9:02 am

mael

it comes from the second t down

9:02 am

mael

in that column

9:03 am

hokie carla

that is 3rd row, no?

9:03 am

mael

yes

9:03 am

hokie carla

and it's supposed to be easy per the chat

9:03 am

mael

I have all the Ts from the bottom row, all regular words

9:04 am

hokie carla

9:04 am

9:05 am

9:07 am

mael

just found a weird v7

9:07 am

hokie carla

9:08 am

MollyL

This chat is so disjointed. First you are talking about r words then "it's a babblet" gets thrown in about the a.

9:08 am

hokie carla

hey, we can follow it

9:08 am

hokie carla

the v7 is not vindetta :D

9:08 am

MollyL

12:32 pm

Shirlockc

i really didn't think that superlative of de4 would work, but it did!

12:39 pm
