Wahoo! Thanks, Steve. Hope you're having a beautiful afternoon.

Mema Jo said...

Steve, it seems like you know what time I come home! lol Thanks again for the new fresh thread. I'll go over and see who is ready to come over.
I guess the rain may come later today.

Judie said...

Prayers for Doreen.

Ready to travel home. Back later.

Mema Jo said...

Hi Judie! How were your wannabe adults today?

Mits said...

thanks, Judie for the call over:):):)

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone!
(Yawn!...) Wow, I slept in this morning, got a bit of work done in the house, then fell asleep again for a quick panda nap! Hope I'm caught up on ZZZZs now! May need to go get some coffee to give myself a jump start, though.
Looks like a nice day outside. Think it's supposed to be just a bit warmer today, though. How about you guys sending some rain this way? I'm gonna get my rain dance shoes on!
Need to catch up on the blog--will be back in a few minutes... :o]

Mema Jo said...

Oh my Goodness! Andrew is up for sale! I wonder why Sharon needs money? Oh Yes, someone did say there was going to be a Train coming to town! Guess she wants to go...

Mema Jo said...

I just walked in the door. New Fresh Thread waiting. Judie was #1 and I was
#1 an a half! lol

Prayers for Doreen... Maybe all of us can pray her through this!

Time for my 3:00 cup coffee...

Forgot to say that we had a Toys R Us
visit after lunch - lots of fun stuff
and $$ from Mema. Who else would do it?

Ms Bookworm said...

Gosh, sorry to hear that the little koala with burned paws didn't make it! had thought she was doing well. Sounds like they're having a serious problem with that particular koala malady--hope they can come up with a solution for it!
Glad to hear that your computer problems have resolved, Jim! I have Time Warner cable internet too, but didn't have the same problem, thank God! Must have just affected your neighborhood.
Prayers for Doreen Pospisil--she sure has been through a lot, but hope all will work out for her. The Lord can surely get her through this! God bless her and her family!

wvgal_dana said...

Woke from panda nap...needed a longer one so I can stay awake tonight for the game.

Yes I couldn't believe when I read about Sam and the article was dated Aug. 6th. I thought Sam was doing just fine. Yes Lynn must be something like that since it is affecting that many koala's.

You all don't think Braveheart is going to stay around Blackwater do you?

Ms Bookworm said...

Margy, Lynn, and Judie,
Thanks for the congratulations for my test grades--Margy, you got it right when you said I have the right partnership going on! Sometimes I think your prayers and the Lord's help are all that get me through this! My brain is feeling a bit like Swiss cheese this morning; it takes longer to memorize stuff than it used to, for sure! So keep on praying for me, you guys! I have a really hairy test tomorrow night in Anatomy class! Have to know all about the skeleton--all 206 bones.
Matter of fact, think I need some coffee to cure the 'Swiss cheese effect'--back in a sec! ;o]

hedgie said...

Andrea....thigh bone's connected to the knee bone, knee bone's connected to the leg bone, leg bone's connected to the ankle bone, etc., etc.!!!! You'll do fine!! We all have lots of faith in you, and the Eagle angel will be on your shoulder.

hedgie said...

I am in a really p---y mood.....just realized that I forgot (BAD mommy) Cinnamon's 10th birthday----it was on the 1st. And she is taking it out on me...three "accidents" in two days...last evening on my new kitchen carpet...and while getting her to the door she managed to do some more on the living room carpet. So I have been shampooing carpets today...ARGH.
On top of that, I put Suz's birthday card in the mailbox this morning; the tree trimming company working for the power company parked in front of my box for three hours, so carrier didn't pick-up/deliver mail, so now the card will be LATE.....I am ANGRY.

wvgal_dana said...

Andrea you always have prayers for your studies and for your mind to retain for your test.

Lynn so sorry about getting told off about missing the 10th birthday....bet you would rather have that wren fussing at you.

hedgie said...

Yeah, Dana, don't have to clean up after the wren---since I moved the basket off the deck, that is!!

hedgie said...

ATTENTION, MOMSTERS AND DADSTERS!!!!
If you haven't already let me know about attending Open House on Oct. 17th, please do so ASAP! We need a headcount to work off of for dinner reservations! Thanks!!!

stronghunter said...

Good afternoon!


Okay, I have been getting confused. I thought Sharon was going on a train ride, but I could not figure out where, but there was going to be a concert on the train, and I thought that was nice, but unusual, then I figured out that Train is a group that is having a concert.

It has been a long day.


Good to see that the still camera is working.


Will be back later.

Mema Jo said...

You get an A+ Shirley for
Problem Solving! lol

Mema Jo said...

Go back to bed Lynn - nap - then get up and start all over again!

hedgie said...

Dana, only 2 more days til our concert! Did you get your ticket? Sure hope the rain is over before then!!

Mema Jo said...

After all that traveling around this morning - hubby just went down to get
Alexis to come up again - 2 times in a week - WOW ! I think I'll make it through until 7:30!

Oh My What time does Discovery shuttle touch down........

hedgie said...

BTW---the Hedgesville concert ISN'T on a train!!! It's in a field---Charlie Daniels at the WV Bluegrass and BBQ Festival called "Pickin' in the Panhandle".

Mema Jo said...

STS-128 Crew Prepares for Landing

The astronauts on space shuttle Discovery are ready to wrap up a nearly 13-day flight with a landing this evening at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

The first task for Pilot Kevin Ford and Commander Rick Sturckow was to make ready for an orbital adjustment engine firing to move Discovery out of the path of a piece of orbital debris. That burn of Discovery’s orbital maneuvering system engines was performed at 12:02 p.m. EDT. The maneuver will not alter the scheduled landing opportunities today.

Mission specialists Pat Forrester, Jose Hernandez, Danny Olivas, Christer Fuglesang and Tim Kopra join Sturckow and Ford to begin deorbit preparations about 1 p.m. as they get themselves and their ship ready for the ride home.

The deorbit burn for today’s first landing opportunity today, on orbit 202, is at 5:59 p.m. Discovery would cross above southern Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico, skirt west of Cuba and cross the Florida coast above Sarasota, with landing at Kennedy’s runway 15 at 7:05 p.m. A second landing opportunity at Kennedy today would put the shuttle and crew on the ground at 8:42 p.m. The weather forecast for both opportunities today calls for a chance of thunderstorms within 30 nautical miles of the Shuttle Landing Facility.

Judie said...

Andrea, we're supposed to get rain this weekend so I'll send some your way. Listen to Lynn, she knows all about our aching bones.

How handsome is Andrew? I might make a bid so Sharon can ride the train to listen to Train! Shirley, I also had to try to figure out the train tickets to Train...guess I'm still out-of-touch.

Jo, you're number one with me.

I, too, am sorry about Sam. Hope the virus can be contained and stopped.

Lynn, so sorry you had such a bad day. Hope Cinnamon is better and mail delivery will be extra speedy.

Want to check SD cam because I couldn't get connected 20 minutes ago. Then off to the kitchen to create a Taco salad for tonight.

Cheers,
Judie

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Gang,
I'm back, feeling a bit perkier after some coffee. Had to pay some bills online that I ALMOST forgot about (but almost doesn't count, right?!)
Lynn & Dana, thanks--good to know I can always count on prayers from you and the rest of the Momsters! (and Dadsters, too!) Lynn, sorry Cinnamon is not happy with you! Tell you what, though, you should see MY carpet! We've had light biege carpet since 1980, and although it's been cleaned professionally countless times, it's really bad. Can't afford to get it cleaned again, OR replaced. If anyone comes to visit, promise me you won't look DOWN! (Yuck--don't know WHAT to do with it at this point!)
Lynn, is Cinnamon feeling OK? Maybe she has a bit of a stomach bug or something. Can't believe she would do that sort of thing on purpose. (Would she?) Maybe...
Sounds like you need a panda nap!
Maybe Cinnamon does, too. Hope it all turns out OK.

NatureNut said...

Happy Afternoon Everyone! Busy w/errands and hair appt. that while on way home, I go near a real great place, SO for the 1st time this summer got some steamed crabs!!!!There used to be a crew that had excellent ones the sold in my area on weekends.I would get some almost every Sat. on way home from work---gone now.
You guys' concerts sound great. We like Charlie Daniels Band, but are mostly rock 'n roll fans.
That's right, just heard on news Shuttle should land at 7:30 UNLESS rainstorm gets too close, then they wait 24 hrs.

PA Nana said...

Hi everyone. Blessings around.
All this talk about a train makes me want to get away. I hear they will have a concert onboard too. Wow. That's my way to travel! Is Sharon ready for a Train ride?!

Decided on a BIG salad for supper tonight so my schedule will be clear for THE GAME!!! I just have to advise hubby no talking during the plays - only at commercials.

Had some good news about youngest grandson. There's nothing wrong with his not talking yet. He's behind on his speech but way ahead with his other skills. Daughter has been teaching him sign language but is giving him verbal instructions at the same time, so this is not a crutch. Whew; that worried me. He'll be getting some speech therapy though. I can't wait for him to say "Nana."

God bless you all and have a good evening and good night. I doubt I'll be back until after the game.
Go Steelers!!

Ms Bookworm said...

Judie, if you can get some rain my way, I'll be your BFF!! Sounds like a plan to me!
Shirley, hope you manage to get all rested up. I know yesterday was a pretty tough day, and I think we're all kinda feeling the aftereffects today. Maybe you need a panda nap, too!
Jo, sounds like you're having a wonderful day! I wish my gds and ggd were close enough for me to see them that much! Miss them terribly. Have fun for me! You can rest up tomorrow. There are such wonderful memories to be made!

wvgal_dana said...

Question:
If you have 4 slots for racks in the over. Is the middle shelf 2 down from the top or 2 up from the bottom?

Judie said...

Yum, steamed crabs and salad- YES!

Happy about the grandson, Diann. Friend of mine didn't speak one word until age 3 then started with complete sentences, has been a college professor for 30 years -- still talking. Be sure to share the big "Nana" event with us.

Diego resting with mom and squirming to get loose.

Now I really am headed for the kitchen.

hedgie said...

Jo, scheduled for 7:05!

Mema Jo said...

Got ya! Thanks Lynn

Judie said...

Jo, enjoy Alexis and Discovery.

I thought about Cinnamon not feeling well so keep a close watch on her.

Dana, I think it's a tie but then I'm math challenged.

Andrea, I'll definitely send rain and Shirley, rest up.

Now I REALLY am going to the kitchen.

Mema Jo said...

I say

2 up from the bottom

Ms Bookworm said...

Prayers that Lynn's card WILL get to its destination on time--on the wings of eagle angels! (Don't forget, with God, ALL things are possible!)
Oops--gotta go water patio plants, before they start gasping for relief! BBIALW... :o]

Ms Bookworm said...

P.S.~~ Diann, that's fantastic news about your grandson! God bless him!

hedgie said...

Mmmm...love taco salad, Judie. And crabs, too, Loretta!
Andy, I can get you a good deal on carpet. My guy owns a carpet store! Of course, getting the installers there might be a problem.....:(
I think Cinnamon is just getting old. She sleeps SO soundly for prolonged stretches, and then wakes up w/ urgency---just like lots of us gals!
Yep, Judy, I was wondering if Sharon was taking bids on Andrew, too!

Mema Jo said...

New Shoe Story - Upon arrival home Anthony showed his mom his 'handsome new shoes' (that is how he describes them) and then proceeded to go to his bedroom, remove his shoes and placed them under his bed. He walks to the side door in his socks and is getting ready to go outside when his mother asks where are your shoes - please put them on - BUT, Anthony says - They're
NEW!

hedgie said...

Me, too, Jo---2 up from the bottom. Sounds like a big oven!
Diann, glad to hear gs is doing well.
I was so worried when my eldest wasn't walking by 2----but doc wasn't concerned, and all turned out well. Think she was just lazy! As for talking...my dad always said "we spend the first two years of their lives teaching them to talk, and the rest of ours wishing they didn't!".

hedgie said...

Wow, FL weather report not sounding good---they may have to divert to California for Discovery landing.

hedgie said...

Great story----NJ zoo camel who has predicted NFL games will NOT predict this year iun protest of Michael Vick playing, and a Philadephia animal welfare group is going to donate a bag of dogfood every time he gets tackled!! Right on!

Lolly said...

Good evening! So, now Sharon has her child for sale. Anyone call CPS???? All for a Train ride!!!

Watching Oprah, pretty good show. Great magician and now Jennifer Hudson.

Trailer is parked in the driveway. Going to start packing for the coast. Whoopee!

Good news about your Grandson, Diann. Know it is always a concern when they are just delayed a little. However, hubby Jack did not talk until late. Nothing wrong with him. lol

How old is your grandson? He will probably start talking in full sentences.

Anne-Marie said...

Hi family , anyone home?

Anne-Marie said...

Its hot here and I need to go to the bank and wont go out in this heat for anything.

Lolly said...

Hi AM!

Lolly said...

We have had a break in the heat here. It is presently 85 and possible rain and even better temps.

Anne-Marie said...

Hi Lolly, guess everyone else is eating dinner. I just had lunch. thats what happens when you live "way out west"..:)

Mema Jo said...

Sophia is 3 yrs old & she talks but sometimes it isn't understandable....
phonetically speaking. Dr said she has
a Lazy Tongue - With 2 older brothers to do everything for you - Why Not?

Lolly said...

Yes! I am thinking about starting dinner in about an hour. Had fun chatting with Chrissy today on facebook. She is six hours ahead of me.

Anne-Marie said...

dont worry about the walking and talking. It happens when you get ready. Rick my youngest didnt have to walk. He was carried around by his much older sibs. Why walk.

Anne-Marie said...

Chrissy is a joy. What a wonderful personality

Mema Jo said...

Incidentally - her hearing was tested and from a 1 (the best) to 10 Sophia was a 2. Dr told them very few if any have perfect hearing. She may be going to get some speech therapy but mom & dad and brothers are working with her...

Lolly said...

Jo, is is interesting how children learn to talk and how they develope. Jacob has been so easy to understand and when I talk on the phone with him he is so clear. Joseph who is 8 and 9 next month is still sometimes hard to understand.

Anne-Marie said...

Jo did you get my email about our weekend in facebook?

Anne-Marie said...

Steve my oldest talked at a very early age and the doctor was amazed. he could sing on key at 18 months but walking was slow. they each have their own timeclock

Lolly said...

Joseph has always talked fast and has a little tongue thrust, but his teachers have never said anything. I blame it on drinking out of sippy cups for so long. lol (That is a grandma's prerogative!)

Mema Jo said...

Anne Marie I pray you get some cool breezes soon! I hope you can figure the Open House into your Oct travels.

Anne-Marie said...

My Brandon has one too and goes to therapy at school. He is 8. His mother had one too and grew out of it.

Lolly said...

Just heard thunder! Loweeda....do a rain dance!!!!!!

Anne-Marie said...

thanks Jo, I'm working on it. It would take two whole days on a greyhound to make it and I'm not sure I'm that strong.

Lolly said...

Anne Marie, are you going to Open House?

Anne-Marie said...

OK Lolly, send some west for me

Mema Jo said...

Anne Marie - I got your message in my regular emails and when I tried to open in FB I couldn't find it.
I am not too good on FB...

Anne-Marie said...

Lolly, I will be in Toledo and I'm trying to figure out how to get there

Lolly said...

From Chrissy on being a bottle buddy at the Open House....

OH great,, "Bottle Buddies",, I'd like to be a fine Old French Champagne,, but in reality more like and old fizzed out lemonade,,,,, [ laughing ],,

Mema Jo said...

Anne Marie Would there be a Train ?
Train like locomotive not
Train like musical...... Sharon can explain the difference....... lol

Anne-Marie said...

Jo, go to your profile and then to the top where it says "inbox". Click there.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly Be sure to email Paula the pic
you want in your wine bottle.

Lolly said...

Well, I hope you make it. I will be there....in a bottle. Oh well, I am already planning next year.(If they will still have me!)

Anne-Marie said...

Diana is into "train" the musical group. so I know the difference. I am still checking and seeing what I can find.

Lolly said...

Jo, going to work on getting a skinny picture in front of my pond, as requested by Wanda. lol

Anne-Marie said...

Bill and I are going to Williamsburg and then where ever he wants to go. He has a new car and wants to drive it. I didnt get to see much of Williamsburg when I was last there.

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, gang,
Back from watering my thirsty plants and feeding my hungry birds.
Gosh, it's HOT (mid-90s) again today! What the heck!?! I'm getting really tired of this. Guess what--I'm not going outside again, either. Hey, A-M, you and I are on the same page there!
Haven't seen an oriole today, and
now I wonder if they've left to go south for the winter (WHAT winter?!). Still have hummers, though.

Anne-Marie said...

How do you get a skinny picture?

Lolly said...

You suck it up! lol

Anne-Marie said...

Hi Bookworm, when it gets hot the birds are smart enough to leave for the hills where its cool. Only silly people stay in the valley.

Anne-Marie said...

I'm sucking and it doesnt help....

Lolly said...

Oh, I LOVE Williamsburg! Went two times last year. My favorite time thought is Christmas. The Grand Illumination is fantastic!

Lolly said...

Stand sideways! If that does not work, use your photo shop to skinny you up! lol

Mits said...

First Landing Opportunity Waved Off
Thu, 10 Sep 2009 08:25:38 PM UTC-0100


The weather forecast is "no go" today for the first landing opportunity at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. If the weather cooperates for the second Kennedy landing opportunity tonight, the deorbit burn would occur at 7:35 p.m. EDT with landing at 8:40 p.m.

Anne-Marie said...

I just got bounced off the blog. Strange.....
My brother Bill and his sweet wife Sandy have never been so we thought we would make it an adventure. Sandy vacation ends the 6th so we have to be back home in Toledo by then. Just doesnt work out with the momsters weekend this year.

Anne-Marie said...

Hi Mits, sending hugs.

Ms Bookworm said...

Anne-Marie,
I'm sure you're right--those orioles are pretty smart birds, and bet they're waiting for the sun to get lower in the sky to show up here. That way there will be shade at the bird feeder!

To throw in my 2 cents worth on kids walking & talking, they all seem to be on their own timetable.
Sometimes when they talk later,they come out with an entire paragraph instead of a first word!
As far as walking, it's a complicated sport to learn, so everyone's a little different. Don't worry about it, and it'll happen. I was a preemie, and my Mom & Dad always said they couldn't believe what I did--went from flat on my back to a dead run at less than 8 months old! (No walking in-between!) My grandfather was a track & field star at Michigan State, so maybe I got the running gene. Go figure.
My daughter & granddaughters, and the ggd, all walked at different ages. No figuring it.

Anne-Marie said...

company here. BBl

Lolly said...

Gotta go fix dinner. Storms in the area....temp down to 82.

Great talking with you Anne Marie. Have a great time seeing your brother and Sandy. Tell them hello from Texas!

BBL

Mema Jo said...

I did click there & before everything did come up ......... Today it just kept rolling and rolling and rolling and never opened! I will try again later.

Mits said...

backatcha, Anne-Marie:)

Mema Jo said...

Anne Marie You need to know that if Bill wants to go home from Williamsburg by way of Shepherdstown there would be a group waiting to meet you for a visit to the nest & then dinner of lunch during the first part of Oct. Just give us some warning!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

This is a test!

Costume Lady said...

OK, Sharon, you passed the test:)

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Holy Toledo, Batman!

Did somebody say "TRAIN"???

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I am glad. It is a pain in the butt to change your email address. I had forgotten!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Okay, I am heading to a meeting. Will check back in after 9!

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Mits for update on shuttle.

Sharon did you see where Diana, Anne Marie's granddaughter, Loves Train!

Mema Jo said...

WOW

BEAUTIFUL EAGLE IN OUR NEST

Mema Jo said...

Remember to hit F5/Refresh at about 15 secs to update the cam

Mema Jo said...

Sent out quickie email
Hope some others come on.........

Mema Jo said...

Love that clean lens......

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hate to leave such wonderful company but the time has come. BBIALW!

Mema Jo said...

See you after 9:00

Hope our eagle is waiting for another eagle and not just checking to see that the night light comes on!

stronghunter said...

We have a new advisory class that meets for 20 minutes on Wednesdays. I am supposed to guide students and advise them on things like college prep and avoiding bullying, etc. I asked the students to write on a card what things they would like to do during the allotted time. Biggest vote--eat. They want me to bring them food.

Teenagers! Why did I even ask? Some did say they would like to know more about applying for college and the SATs. Maybe I will try cookies. If I bring food a couple of times , I can suggest that they chip in. Then I can slip in the serious material.


Wow! Nice, long eagle visit.

Mits said...

looks like skinny Lib

stronghunter said...

Poof!

Mema Jo said...

Poof

Mema Jo said...

Be sure you bring them Brain Food!

Mits said...

NO GO FOR LANDING TONIGHT FOR SHUTTLE

Mema Jo said...

Lots of Poofing going on!

Mits said...

weather looks worse for tomorrow's try

hedgie said...

Shuttle landing off in FL. Waiting to hear about CA info....

stronghunter said...

Good idea, Jo.

magpie said...

I thought I saw two when it all started out...did anyone else see two ? I think it was around 6:55...

Hello.
xo

Mema Jo said...

They could very well be flying around for a few days....

hedgie said...

24 hrs. more in orbit.

hedgie said...

2 POSSIBLE FL landings tomorrow---5:48pm or 7:23pm, but weather report not favorable. Will be "readying" Edwards' AFB for potential landing....time TBA.

stronghunter said...

EAGLE ALERT!!!

stronghunter said...

Gone again.

magpie said...

Maybe I thought I was seeing two white heads but maybe it was really just one white head and one white tail....

Was on the phone with a dear friend, nope, didn't take any pictures.

Wah, no Florida landing, will be watching the schedule, thank you folks for the information.

BBIALW - next door neighbor visit coming up...

xo

wvgal_dana said...

Close up of Diego nursing

Judie said...

Anne-Marie--about that picture, just stand in front of someone much larger.

Taco salad was good. Full and tired now. Think I will take a little rest and read today's newspaper.

Guess I missed the eagle visit but maybe tomorrow.

Judie said...

Oh, forgot. Diego was alone on his back and after several minutes of struggle he turned himself over. Mom arrived about a minute later. This was just a bit after 7pm. Have to wonder if she's watching to see his progress?

hedgie said...

Jo, Margy saw 2....we were on the phone!

stronghunter said...

I did take a few pictures.

hedgie said...

Caught up on blog!
Hey, A-M---echoing Jo---whenever you can swing through the area, we'll be here!

Mema Jo said...

Had to be around 7:34 for 2 to be there but for only a minute

One was there for about 20 min.

hedgie said...

Norma, if you check in....Nancy's name listed on Strider's website, but no obit or info with it yet. Will keep you advised.

Mema Jo said...

Margie has


Double Vision

wvgal_dana said...

Time to get hopping for my chair and ready for "football game"....GO STEELERS!!! Win or Lose ...GO STEELERS!!!!

Evening, all!

Got the car all clean, inside and out! I hate road trips in a dirty car! Now I can get it full of sand! And I suppose it will rain now, too, LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Sorry I missed the visit!

Mema Jo said...


Cams of Ocean City


There you go Paula.. Very wet down there but it shouldn't dampen your
trip! Drive safely and have fun!

stronghunter said...

Good night friends. See you tomorrow.

floralgirl said...

Hey Paula, Have a great time!!

Mits said...

Paula, you have mail....make sure you bring the sun with you.....we have had a heavy day of wind and rain....extremely heavy rain now

Mema Jo said...

I think it is Dana & Diann who are the Steeler Fans.... I had said Gwen in error.

Mits said...

Jo the tinyh url did not work for me...

magpie said...

Me Too: Paula - Hope you have a really really good time and get lots of sand between your toes!
We will miss you !!
xoxo ☺ ♥

paula eagleholic said...

I will surely try, Mits. But frankly, I don't care what the weather is like. I like the beach rain or shine, hot or cold!

magpie said...

Awww Jo !

How I would love to watch that YouTube with Sound ♪ ♫ - maybe this week-end I can get it figured out!

Mits said...

I think this week has been great...love watching the angry ocean with all its power..did you get the mail, Paula?

paula eagleholic said...

Back at ya, Mits.

I have to go pack for the beach!!!

magpie said...

I have about 200 posts to read from today's - better go do that so I can be more polite.

paula eagleholic said...

Jo's link worked for me...

magpie said...

One bikini, one raincoat, and a camera, that won't take long to pack!

Mema Jo said...

It did just now for me...... It is a
new page and the cams are drop down box. Paula & Megan Did the OC cams work for you gals.

Mits said...

that is odd, because I opened it up on my email...and it had the tinyurl page up....went to blog and same thing...let me try again....yes I know the page it is their brand new site

Mema Jo said...

A Belated Good Night to you Shirley.
I didn't see you leave
Talk to you tomorrow...
It's Red Friday

Mits said...

it is also 9-11....a day we will never forget:(

floralgirl said...

Link worked for me

Mema Jo said...

Do you know of anything special going on anywhere concerning 9-11 ?

Mema Jo said...

Megan - if we get heavy heavy rain Fri/Sat will it mean no market flowers for Sun?

hedgie said...

Think I would add a sweatshirt to your pack, Paula! Do have a fun time!! And don't challenge the lifeguards!

magpie said...

At the Town Spring in Hedgesville at 9:30 Mema... ceremony will include Honor Guard from the 167th ANG in Martinsburg, three high school students reading their winning essays regarding 9-1-1 and a keynote address by Chief Warrant Officer 5 William H. Wortley, a Hedgesville resident who was responsible for the Army Assets at the Pentagon on Sept 11, 2001. Also one gentleman from Winchester, from the Pipe and Drum Corps, and another to play taps. A few other appearances and speeches also.

Mema Jo said...

Margy - whenever they play taps I always fight back the tears.

floralgirl said...

ALready cutting some flowers for Sunday, Jo. WIll cut many tomorrow morning. And I'll believe rain when I actually see it...

magpie said...

Friend of mine made me a CD -
NYC Fire Department, Emerald Society, "All Hands Working" Pipes and Drums... shortly after
Sept 11, 2001...

I fight back the tears too, Jo, then I just give up the fight and cry...

Costume Lady said...

I am a Steelers Fan, also. Use to listen to the games on the radio when we lived in Pa. and before we had TV!

Costume Lady said...

Or was that the Pittsburgh Pirates games we listened to on the radio? I'll have to ask GeeGee:)

magpie said...

Lots to read today, I should have been taking notes :(

Of course enjoyed all the children stories, hearing from Anne-Marie, and everyone else.

James was so little when he was born his hearing had not developed right for quite some time. After awhile when we could not understand his "talking" he started hitting us sometimes out of frustration I guess...
that's all behind us now...

magpie said...

The new shoes story, great one, Mema...can picture little Anthony now...

magpie said...

Hedgie.. I think your card will get to Suzanne on time...after all, it is not going to Naples, Fla!

Costume Lady said...

I haven't cried but once or twice in the past 10 years. Recently went off a pill prescribed for me, and I cry over spilled milk:) THIS IS TRUE!

magpie said...

Good to hear Gene was enjoying some history from Merry Old England today, Wanda ☺

magpie said...

Deb
Prayers for Doreen, that was a lovely site you posted, great photographs and very spirited.
Hope you enjoyed your day in the Wild today...

Costume Lady said...

LOL...Thought James was gonna hit Gene out of frustration with him calling him GEORGE! (Kidding)

magpie said...

Goop was a big hit at the office, all three of my co-workers and I had it with Croissant rolls...
even with the asparagus soup, Wanda, you might have liked it!
Judie, maybe I will get some to you at Open House ! ☺

magpie said...

Going to stockpile my money for a few weeks, might offer to pay Big Bucks to someone if they will work my Open House Saturday shift ! But someone might like a trade that day for Hallowe-en..
Think I can make some of the meals at least...gotta meet new Momsters!

magpie said...

LOL Wanda!
We need to make another visit!

Costume Lady said...

Yes, Margy, Gene really enjoyed the info that Chrissy sent to him. Then I had to listen to it all and I don't like History! He needs to get back on his feet and get with Jerry or some of his Male friends. He surely must be tired of "only" me for the last 9 days:)

magpie said...

Hope the Pittsburgh Steelers fans are enjoying themselves...right now it is a Quarterback's duel...score Tenn 0 - Pittsburgh 0
in the second quarter....
With that score, even the Tennessee fans would be happy....

magpie said...

Not a chance, Wanda !
Gene would never tire of his Tiger !

Are the guys doing any of the extra hunting season time in late September??

magpie said...

I need to go find my pajamas...

TTFN xox

Costume Lady said...

Not that I know of, Margy. I think they save all their time and energy for November:)

magpie said...

I bet Dickie will be going out as soon as he can, archery comes in sometime around the 20th, he hunts locally too....

Mema Jo said...

Megan :<( I just remembered that Saturday my Catonsville grandson is spending the night and then Sunday we
will drive him home....... I am going
to miss Market! I was thinking I would
be there this weekend because I missed last weekend.

magpie said...

Hey Mema !
I am off Sunday - I will try to get to market in your place. I need flowers and plants, Bad !

paula eagleholic said...

Yup, got my raincoat and jeans and a warm shirt. And everything else in the book...decisions, decisions.....back to packing...

magpie said...

CRS - I was going to look for my pajamas...maybe I can find some RED ones like Norma has !

xo

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I am back. You all have been a little chatty while I was gone!

Lolly said...

Hi Sharon! Packing for your Train ride?

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Lolly, how did you know? :)

hedgie said...

Think I would use Cream of Mushroom for my taste, Margy!!! Don't like the green spears!

Lolly said...

Jack has been glued to the TV watching Ga Tech and Clemson. Guess football season has truly started.

Paula or someone told me the little URL directions were on our Momsters page. Went there but when I clicked what should be the directions nothing happened. I lost the directions and should would like them again.

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Made sandwiches for dinner so we wouldn't make the kitchen any hotter. Had deli macaroni salad with them, and dill pickles. Tasted pretty good. It's supposed to be hotter tomorrow, so I might go to a Barnes & Noble or Borders to study and get online. At least it will be air conditioned! Need to get more creative to beat the heat. Would love to be at the beach with it raining--sounds just heavenly!

Lolly said...

lol Sharon! Thought I heard you mention something about a train ride.

magpie said...

Pittsburgh 7, Tenn Titans - 0

Sharon I have used that, also Golden Mushroom soup, Cream of Broccoli, Tomato, and Cream of Celery....
no batch of Goop is ever the same ☺

Lolly said...

Chrissy had another incident today with teenagers throwing something at her patio door. This time she called the police. They were coming by tonight or tomorrow. She is hopping mad now!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Well, Lolly, I was just going to email you the instructions but realized I don't have your email address????

magpie said...

I'm thinking we need to get across the Pond En Masse...and chase those teenagers down.....
Momster Power!

Titans just scored, 7-7

hedgie said...

Shar--if you have a new email address, please send it to me!!

magpie said...

Hey there Andy...
How are your bones doing tonight?

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Lynn, you've got mail. I thought I sent it to you earlier today. I am going to send it through eaglet momsters again.

Lolly said...

Sharon, I would email you my address but I do not have your new one!
