Roger..that's not a common, every day word in my neck of the woods.....and now I'm still at work....can you come get me...cause it's really, really dark out. (yes..I had to google it...)

MB-I've been driving about 45 minutes one way for 14 years.....before that it was at least an hour one way when I lived in Delaware.....it's a drag, but there is nothing else around where I live.

yep you got but i had to give a hint so b-

pleonasm

PRONUNCIATION:
(PLEE-uh-naz-uhm)

MEANING:
noun: The use of more words than those necessary to express an idea; redundancy.
Example: free gift.


ETYMOLOGY:NOTES:
Pleonasm is often used for emphasis, as in free gift, true fact, or revert back. While such repetition is discouraged, sometimes it becomes part of the language and is used idiomatically, as in a hot water heater.


USAGE:
"Why some people walk around with a little dark cloud over their heads all the time, while others ceaselessly view the world through rose-colored glasses, to use a tired cliche ('tired cliche' is also a cliche, as well as a pleonasm, but what the heck)."
Otto Penzler; What a Wonderful Year!; The New York Sun; Dec 28, 2005.


From Latin pleonasmus, from Greek pleonasmos, from pleonazein (to be in excess), from pleon (more). First recorded use: 1610.

BTW, no, that's not my picture, prob from the 80's early 90's, but poor babies!! Santy doesn't look too right himself!!
Still missing our Swanny, wish we had some word from her she's OK. Check in, baby girl! Don't make me come over there!
MB, yes, it depends on the need. Maybe, with your hubby and sons, you need to work out a plan, which of course you don't have to do, but work together.
