8:15 am

hokie carla

welki!

8:15 am

dcseain

Good morning . I awoke an hour before my alaram today and rolled with it. Almost through 2nd cuppa coffee.

8:15 am

hokie carla

seain!

8:16 am

welki

how was your triathlon?

8:16 am

dcseain

hello, carla nd welki

8:16 am

welki

hi, seain

8:16 am

72 Temple Owl

hello babblers

8:16 am

dcseain

oh, yes, how went the triatholon?

8:16 am

hokie carla

rainy and dark here so I tried to go back to sleep

8:16 am

hokie carla

TO!

8:16 am

dcseain

morning, TO?

8:16 am

welki

hey, to

8:18 am

hokie carla

scat

8:18 am

hokie carla

oops

8:18 am

72 Temple Owl

carla!

8:18 am

welki

hokie, you golfed, pickleballed and tennised (i think that was the third sport) all in one day - how'd it go?

8:18 am

72 Temple Owl

omg

8:19 am

72 Temple Owl

how did you fit all that in one day?

8:20 am

hokie carla

well, we didn't finish in the top 5 so I'm not sure where ended up. mr. homie doesn't play tennis or pickleball so we lost most of those

8:20 am

hokie carla

the tennis and pb were timed rounds. we played those in the morning and then 9 holes golf in the afternoon.

8:22 am

welki

since the course closed here, we've done a lot of nothing in the past few weeks. packing and looking forward to heading south to our little desert course

8:23 am

dcseain

nice!, Hokie

8:23 am

72 Temple Owl

bbl happy babbling

8:24 am

welki

to, granddaughter broke her hand, but she's going on tour anyway (brace and fingers taped together on her strumming hand)

8:26 am

dcseain

oh, no! That may slow healing. May she heal well.

8:28 am

welki

thanks, seain - landed wrong on a trampoline and broke a metacarpal. doctor said the brace was all she needed, but it ached badly after rehearsal, so she taped a couple of fingers together (and will make sure that's okay with doc later today)

8:38 am

dcseain

woo! I remembered the English word for achiote!

8:38 am

dcseain

I’m glad to hear that. Healing well matters the world!

8:38 am

Sugrraleona

gm, anyone get the ra7?

8:38 am

dcseain

I’ve had to recover from a serious sprain to play violin again, and from a muscle tear to waltz again. One can heal and be active.

8:38 am

dcseain

correctly

8:40 am

dcseain

i do not have ra7 yet

8:40 am

ChampFit

I have an ra7/32

9:01 am

hokie carla

manboat - like a mancave but on the water

9:02 am

ChampFit

I like it! Just got the de8. Total guess, but it worked.

9:02 am

hokie carla

I didn't even know there was a de8. guess I will start making guesses.

9:03 am

welki

whoa, that was easier than it should have been

9:03 am

welki

thanks, champ!

9:03 am

ChampFit

yw...do you have the ma?

9:04 am

hokie carla

well, still making guesses so I might be on the wrong track

9:04 am

welki

if it's more than 5 letters, no

9:05 am

hokie carla

it's not to remove the coloring implements

9:06 am

welki

no, it's more like ten nonnas

9:06 am

hokie carla

ah, thank you

9:06 am

ChampFit

Someone actually clued it earlier, but I didn't get it at the time. It's a small measurement

9:06 am

hokie carla

that's what happens when you don't use metric system ;)

9:07 am

ChampFit

seriously!

9:07 am

hokie carla

ok, so you are saying the other 8 is MA?

9:07 am

welki

when i moved to canada, i just about had a meltdown in the meat isle because i couldn't figure out how much in USD a pork chop cost

9:07 am

ChampFit

Yes, per the chog early this a.m.

10:26 am

BzznBea

Care to clue it, luv?

10:31 am

clg47

cr is a common word - an art stick or something to keep kids busy

10:31 am

hokie carla

lol, was just about to say very common

10:35 am

MollyL

Give me a box of 64 any day : D

10:37 am

BzznBea

Why can I get words like gi6 but I can't remember what day it is?

10:43 am

hokie carla

I don't know, but I don't have a gi6 if you want to help me remember

10:43 am

MollyL

80's jeans

10:45 am

hokie carla

hmm, will have to think. only thinking of sassoon, gloria vanderbilt, jordache, later guess

10:46 am

hokie carla

maybe they weren't a thing where I lived.

10:46 am

hokie carla

or was 80s before I cared

10:46 am

penquis

it's another word for a gypsy...ends in a vowel...

10:47 am

hokie carla

even more confused now, pen!

10:47 am

penquis

go down to the i, not up....

10:48 am

BzznBea

gi + browned skin + vowel

10:48 am

hokie carla

lol, hadn't even thought of going up

10:48 am

hokie carla

got it! thanks, all.

10:49 am

hokie carla

I do vaguely remember that but they definitely were either before my time or not big where I lived.

10:50 am

penquis

they were popular in the 80s...

10:51 am

BzznBea

In the Flinthills of Kansas, it was Wranglers or Levis. For the more fashion forward it was Lee jeans.

10:51 am

hokie carla

yeah, that's what molly said, but I wasn't into jeans until like 1987

10:52 am

hokie carla

I know guess were big but can't think of the others

10:57 am

cybernan

good morning - how is everyone doing today ?

10:58 am

penquis

ok, thanks....hope you are okay, too...

11:00 am

hokie carla

11:00 am

BzznBea

11:01 am

BzznBea

Going to put together a big pot of chili today.

11:01 am

penquis

i am going to teach tennis to a few mentally challenged adults through "Tennis for Fun"....

11:02 am

BzznBea

That sounds like fun, pen.

11:03 am

penquis

it is fun....they are very personable, good natured and easy to work with...

11:03 am

cybernan

a worthwhile endeavour, pen

11:04 am

penquis

yes...it's a nice program....active in other states, too...

11:06 am

hokie carla

oh that's nice, pen

11:06 am

penquis

well i am off to get lunch together....bye for now...

11:06 am

cybernan

so much attention is paid to the kids, we tend to forget that the mentally challenged adults need support to have a decent quality of ife as well.

11:08 am

cybernan

11:10 am

hokie carla

bea's chili comment now has me looking through all my soup/stew recipes.

11:17 am

cybernan

missed her comment but was thinking about making a pot of chili when the grandkids come next week

11:18 am

hokie carla

I always say I dont like red chili but I am going to give it a try

11:19 am

cybernan

I always rinse the kidney beans to get rid of the starchy "syrup".

11:22 am

cybernan

don't understand the red chili, comment though - red as opposed to what?

11:22 am

hokie carla

white chili, which I love

11:22 am

hokie carla

white is traditionally chicken while red chili is beef

11:22 am

cybernan

using white navy beans?

11:23 am

hokie carla

canneloni or any white bean

11:23 am

cybernan

oh - have never used chicken

11:23 am

hokie carla

cannellini

11:23 am

hokie carla

usually creamy, hence the white

11:25 am

cybernan

just ground beef (extra lean), kidney beans, canned diced roma tomatoes, can of peaches and cream corn, sauteed onions + mushrooms and spices to taste. Sometimes throw in some bacon bits as well

11:26 am

hokie carla

I usually make this one but mr. homie doesn't like the corn in it so I might try another. super easy slow cooker one. https://tinyurl.com/2j5fd7m7

11:26 am

BzznBea

Busy hosehold here this mornning.

11:26 am

hokie carla

11:26 am

11:27 am

hokie carla

11:28 am

BzznBea

11:30 am

12:09 pm

MollyL

I guess y'all standard brand jeans people never heard of Calvin Kleins either. Although I don't know how anyone missed the Brooke Shields commercial.

12:10 pm

hurshy

how can anyone not have heard of Calvin Klein

12:10 pm

hurshy

it's also in Back to the Future!

12:10 pm

MollyL

They didn't seem to know the gi6 brand jeans.

12:11 pm

hurshy

i guess they aren't quite as popular as Levi, Lee, or CK

12:12 pm

EvaNadine

if it aint Jordache, its trash.
;)

12:12 pm

MollyL

Could have been a where you live thing too. The gi6 jeans were pretty popular where I lived.

12:12 pm

hurshy

yes that could certainly be

12:12 pm

MollyL

Jordache too, Eva.

12:13 pm

hurshy

is Jordache still a brand or did they go out of business

12:14 pm

MollyL

They are still making them. Lots of competition these days though.

12:16 pm

hurshy

any RY words or are they all RA?

12:16 pm

MollyL

Back in those days, you had to lie down to zip and button your jeans we wore them so tight. Kids today are all into baggy stuff. Except the leggings.

12:17 pm

EvaNadine

i still have to lay down to zip my jeans.
but that says more about my body than the clothes...

a couple of insensitive words...I haven't been keeping track lately. It's just an FYI if you care to find them

6:26 pm

MollyL

Again, words are not insensitive if they exist in a word finding game. Only if they are used to slur someone.
