Oh gosh---adding Hope to the prayer list! Please let her be OK.
Linda, you are such a worker!I don't know how you do it! Margy, how odd the leak stopped at the wrong time! Lynne, sure hope you can let someone else fight for your tags! Hope you get them soon & you two don't have to stay involved. Sounds like a creep that might not be in business long! Shirley, I was on a bowling league for almost 20 years. Loved it-had to quit for surgery & knees weren't happy. We played duckpins--smaller balls. If I had to use a 10-12 pounder, I'd be down the alley, too! So sorry about Suz's Sheba. Guess I'll have to write her snail mail. Still got one camera to dwnld & then of course pics that didn't get on yet---like hummers!Hopefully tomorrow. Wishing for good health to all, especiall Kay & Diann~~ Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Jo, bet the Frederick Fair is still great. I remember going a time or two as a kid, as well as Gaithersburg, and Harrisburg!
Oh, Judie, so disappointed to hear about Harry's Law changes....recorded it....may have to strike it off my list. You can switch to Criminal Minds!!
No rain here since I got home---and not much while I was gone. Cloudy now---can't see a star in the sky! Grest nighttime chorus....cicadas/katydid's/crickets/tree frogs!
Did anyone see Tony Bennett and k.d.lang on The View this AM/ They sure complement well each other in the singing!
I had a really nice visit with GG today. She was in such a great mood. We sat out on her porch and I watched as she dead-headed her flowers...just like old times:)
ONE MORE TIME... It's late night and all the kiddies are asleep, so I can post this. Karla had this on facebook:
Karla Wright Adams For everyone who is a little stressed, I am passing this on, because it definitely worked for me today, and we all could use more calm in our lives. I looked around my house to see things I'd started and hadn't finished, so I have managed to finish off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of wum, tha mainder of Valiuminun scriptins, an a box a chocletz. Yu haf no idr how bludy fablus I feel rite now. Sned this to all who need inner piss.
Guess I missed most of the late nighters, but not the night owls.
Judie's sandman is whispering in my ear...."sleep, sleep." Have taken my medicine so I guess I'll listed to him. I'll ask him ot make his rounds and even to Hoda's.
God's blessings on everyone. A Prayer to find Hope unhurt too.
Prayers for all wants and for DanaWV to keep standing upright.
whispering.... Hoda, socks with sandals is find. Good night.
Anything that keeps your feet warm will warm your heart!
I am headed to bed........ Still have rain. Really anxious to hear some good news about Hope. She just may have found another playmate - The video of Hope and Faith play/fighting was good. I will keep my hope and faith that all is well.
Sadden tonight for my friend and yours, Suz concerning the loss of Queen of Sheba. Suz will morn her and then begin to remember her in a very happy way.
Hi, Gang, Took me forever to get caught up here tonight!
Before it's too late, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DELPHIA!!! Hope it was enjoyable to the max!
Margy, prayers for your water leak situation!
Lynn, good editorial about the mass euthanasia at the shelter.
Oh, my! Prayers for Suz and for poor Sheba. SO sorry to hear the bad news. (((HUGS)))!!!!...and tears, too.
Lolly, glad you picked up Annie just in time!
Oh, WV Dana, prayers for you! Hope your head stops hurting, and you are not too sore tomorrow! PLEASE promise me that you will be even more careful from now on!
Loretta, that's so wonderful that Sherry found her jewels! Thank God! So grateful that Danny is doing so well, too!
Linda, hope the hot bath does the job of taking away the aches & pains! Prayers for healing.
Margy, mighty glad to hear that the water leak from upstairs has apparently stopped! Bet your apartment does smell heavenly! I love the aroma of Eucalyptus too! Have fun with James tomorrow!
Lynne, SO glad some progress was made with the car tag situation!...and SO sorry about the SB situation! Sounds like you are trouncing them tonight, though. Thank you for the bear link. Praying that Hope will be found OK!
Prayers continue for Kay's recovery.
Lynn, yes, I saw Tony Bennett & k.d. lang too! Their voices blend beautifully!
Sharon, prayers for Justin's appt. tomorrow. Sure hope & pray he's not hurting too much!
Well, think I'll hit the sack too. Prayers have been said for everyone, and every creature. Making sure the porch light is on. Enabling both security systems. Sleep well, everyone. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]
Good Morning, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Shirley's Kathryn! I hope it's a special day for her.
HODA, you've got to be one of the busiest women I know! Well, you and Linda with that additional 56 lbs of tomatoes!
DIANN, I'm so glad you're feeling so much better! Answered prayers!
I didn't see much from KAY, if anything. I hope she's resting and continuing her speedy recovery. ♥
MARGY, have a great day with James and the other Grandma. What a blessed little boy he is!
LORETTA, awesome that Sherry recovered some of her most sentimental pieces of jewelry. I never thought of people having to sift through ashes like that. Glad it's paying off.
LYNNE, hoping your tags problem will be fully resolved before you have to take the car off the road. Next time go with your gut! :)
Today is a JUDIE teaching day. Lucky wannabe adults!
LYNN, I always laugh at all the new words we have these days like webinar! But how convenient for you!
ANDY, congrats on your paycheck from the doc! It's a real job!! YAY!
I'll see you Early Birds soon. CAM IS STILL DOWN.
Oh, LOLLY. Socks and Birkenstocks or like sandals...very hip & comfy. :)
Loretta-So cool about finding the jewelery. Annemarie lost a ring when she was a baby (yes she was only 3 and was wearing a ring, but I'm Italian and from NY and we love jewelery). Anyway she wore it to mass one Sunday and then I went out to do something, when I came back she had been in the baby pool in the yard with my husband and the ring was gone. The pool got dumped before I got home, we rented a metal detector and everything and never found it. It's always my dream that somehow we find it but since we dug the pool I doubt that will ever happen. I have never stopped looking for it though :(
I can't believe the number of posts to catch up on and comment on after I left last night. We are an active bunch aren't we! :)
Is there going to be a fall gathering of the group? I know some of us don't live to far apart and I would really love to put some faces to names. I'm still so sad about not getting to meet Kay. Maybe when we pick Aric up for Christmas. I don't think I have any extra days until then off of school.
I always loved it when little girls had stud earrings. My dad wouldn't let me get my ears pierced until I was in 6th grade. No makeup until I was 16 -- even then I only wore mascara on dates!
T-BIRD & SHARON, Drive safely and thanks for keeping us posted about Justin. Glad you're seeing an Orthopedic doctor! Prayers for smiles on your way home. :)
Funny DanaMO! My Dad said the same thing when I was little, no dating until you're 30. Then in 9th grade he lowered it to 21... in 10th grade he said, "okay at 18 you can have a boyfriend." Then, when I turned 16 I could only go on a date if my older brother was going to be at the same party, game, where ever!!! No kidding.
Gonna go see Winter the Dolphin this mornin and renew my yearly pass while I am there I expires next month while I will be in NC
LYNN so glad that you got some help Keep us posted
LORETTA That is such great news that she found some of there jewelry in the ashes
LINDA where you all singing ♫One Tomato, two tomato, three tomato fives tomato six tomato seven tomato, more♫ Great work on your garden that is fantastic
could I get the physical address of the nest I want to see if it comes up on Google earth for one and the second is just in case I drive up from NC to the nest I want to see what the mileage is from Junes place in Burnsville, NC
I said something to my Dept Mgr the other day how the system has scheduled me at to be in at 8 and 830 from now on and just to let them know that I would not be in at 7 well she said I should go get with a manager and I said why should I that they all know that the schedule misses our schedules up all the time and if they wanted me to be 7-4 they would change it and I shouldn't have to keep reminding them on a weekly basis So I am working the set schedule Lets let them see how it is when I'm not there in the am before the mgr do the walk and thing may not be signed right then maybe they will remember to fix it and that I think I will like the new schedule that way I can sleep in and stay up late and I will be able to see the eagles in the am since sunrise is later and I am at work at that time Ok that is the real reason why I want to stick with the new schedule LOL
So the only time that I will be getting up before 7am from know on will be next year when time changes and the eagle arrive earlier and by then they may have my scheduled changed I was told to just come in and work my old hours but then I told them then I would be on a daily report and not working my scheduled hours and that can be held against you in the future OK enough of ms schedule
The gulf of mexico is full of rain we have a50° of rain today
Rain is several hours away if anything this afternoon I just looked on the Interactive map and it is far away for now and there is rain on the other side of the state we are surrounded by rain but not the state itself Most of the dolphin facilities are under cover the have two out side tanks and Winters in under a area where he is exposed like a big big open sunroof but the area around is under a roof and then you can go below and watch in the three windows below the pool They we will probably go to McDonalds she like to play on their slide and climbing them home
Good morning! Happy Birthday to Shirley's Kathryn!!
I have a Kathryn too....only spelled different...Laurel Catherine! Ashley's name is Catherine Ashley. Jack's name is John Ashley. Therefore...my daughter in law's name is a combination of my husband's and daughter's. lol More information than you ever needed!
JudyE---on the right hand side of the thread page, scroll down to NCTC Website link for address.
Hope everyone is off to a good start today. Some nightowls may be sleeping in.
Nothing special here to report. Liesl's foster mom should be here around 11....throwing together a quick lunch in case she's hungry after her morning apptmts.
Oh Lolly, sorry to read of your friend's father's death.... I have had a "brother-in-law-in-law" pass away this week from Lung Cancer after a long battle.
Lynn, hope all goes well and you have a great time this morning with Liesl's foster mother
Lynn saw your post about my old house... it is difficult to see what could have been, and is not...for me. And with not a single tree in that once beautiful back yard.... well, I shall pass on the drive-by but thanks for the information
It is a beautiful morning, here in WV. 73° and sunny...going up to 80°With all of this warmth and sun, I think I will be able to pick my Fall crop of green beans, Saturday! Fall beans are always so beautiful, no spots or insects and they are even tastier. Looks like Saturday's supper will be green beans, potatoes cooked in country ham and baked apples.
My shop is calling my name, but, before I go, I'd like to wish Kathryn a ♫♪♫♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY♫♪♫♪!
Oh how wonderful Loretta. Sherry found sapphire & white gold ring that Aunt Ann gave you and you gave to Sherry at age 16. Then the enggagement ring and that center diamond. That is truly God's Blessings!!!!
It is also great about Danny. Prayers do help ( : ^j^
Prayers that Sissy is successful at getting the point across.
Oh No Hope is missing??????? Lord let Hope be found please.^j^
Margy nice that you will have time with James. Margy remember I crack my head a lot so watch those big words--abated but I already knew what that mean't. lol
Margy, sorry I brought up sad memories. Did I tell you all what I heard about our first house on Ridge Rd.? The lady who bought it from us passed away (also lung cancer), but her sons and their step-father stayed for a few years and then sold it to a single male schoolteacher. One of the sons was in the house recently for some reason, and told Christie that "our" beautifully finished basement is nothing but a mold-hole. The guy has not run a dehumidifier, and Travis said that the paneling and carpet is actually covered with mold and reeks. He says that the house really needs to be bull-dozed, it is so bad. Very sad......ex's uncle put SO much craftsmanship into the work he did for us. :(
Lynne2 there is no reason that guy can't give you another set of temporary so you don't have to park the car. Glad you got ahold of lady at DMV. I think he get off his butt NOW!!
Linda Linda all those tomatoes. Can't you find a busy road and set up a tomato sale??? That is if you have already canned enough for you.
Oh, Wanda, the visit is a friendly one. She suffers from severe seperation syndrome!!! If it's like the last time, she'll cry most of the time! She's a real sweetheart....but I'm not sure that fostering is the best "job" for her!
Well I did not realize until I seen the comments. That today is the last of summer. Fall is a nice time....it's what happenes after that worries me. I do enjoy winter some though.
Margy sorry for the lose of your brother-in-law. Peace for him now especially since it was a long rough illness. Peace be with you and his family and friends.
Hey Lynn. Most of the Wildlife Drive at BW is closed, particularly the best parts so I haven't been making trips out there much. I did get the Visitor Center to take a couple of my books on consignment though.
Oh, good news on the rescue Lynn. did they post on FB?
The foster Mom is still crying over Liesl leaving??? Doesn't sound like she should be a foster Mom...unless those are tears of joy and not sadness....but still...whew.
BoB, hope the CPAP machine helps. Is your place in Easton or Cambridge?
Hi Bob, glad you stopped by. How's things going for you?
Sharon, good news about Justin. So happy it wasn't worse.
Lynn, Harry's Law might be okay if I can get used to it. Just preferred the underdog store-front concept better. Guess the visit is over and I'm sure it went well. Sorry about the condition of the Ridge Rd. house. Sad.
By-the-way, Lynn, I couldn't help but remember when I read your comment about falling and dementia. Darth's mom started having frequent falls for no apparent reason. That was not long before the early dementia became apparent.
Margy, wishing you an amazing afternoon with James the Wise. Sorry about the death of your brother-in-law. Prayers for you and the family.
Shirley, that $4.00 is a good start on a 20lb bowling ball.
♪♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KATHRYN♪♪ and to the birthday mom.
Andy, so pleased you received a paycheck. I anticipate lots and lots of Emma toys.
Judy, have fun with Jordyn. Is Winter the dolphin with the prosthetic tail?
Okay, nearly time to depart for home. Wishing all a happy afternoon.
Bob - great to hear from you. I hope your sever sleep apnea will be getting better with the use of the CPAP machine next week. I am thankful you got it diagnosed. Don't want you falling asleep on the job! (hugs))
Bob, Darth uses a CPAP machine. It took some getting used to but he is sleeping more and feeling more rested. Sure hoping it will be a great help to you. Sorry the BW access is so limited. Love your pictures. Well, something to look forward to in the future. Take care.
Thanks Judie and Jo. Everyone I talk to that uses a CPAP machine says it has made a big difference for them. Even if it not the cause of my current symptoms I am looking forward to getting better sleep and feeling more energized. The sleep study showed at one point I had 49 apnea "events" during one hour. The longest one was for 92 seconds without breathing.
Oh, Bob....so many people suffer from the sleep apnea. The CPAP will really help you get GOOD sleep! My SIL won't wear his most of the time which really ticks us off.
Oh, for cute ! Liesl cried with her foster mom ! Dogs are so empathetic ! I got a Malcolm fix when Julie took me to their house for dinner last night. He was ecstatic ! She's doing the same today--nice and sunny so I'll be there early to soak up some badly needed rays. She is really "mothering" me, so concerned about my iron level and socking the proteins to me.
Haven't had enough stamina to do the blog justice but have gleaned some info.
So sorry to hear of losses suffered by MARGY, LOLLY and SUZ. Concerned about the missing Hope.
But, so happy to hear about LORETTA's kids recovering valued items from the ashes. And, to hear SHARON'S report on Justin's toes.
Paula....yes, it was on FB about the golden's. Foster mom's tears are both happy and sad. She misses her "love bug" but she's also thrilled to see how well she is doing in all regards.
Bob, WOW----that's a LONG time without breathing!!! Whew!
Judie, I guess your MIL's situation verify's what I read about falling for no apparent reason.
How long does LIESL'S foster mom have to keep visiting? LIESL only has one MOM and that is LYNN so what is with the visits?
BOB I am glad you are very positive and I hope your book sales are also going well. Good on you for looking after the sleep apnea diagnosis and it must be a releif to get it named...I hope the other symptoms are addressed soon. Do you drive? When I got dizzy for a few days I wondered about driving...I still did but I always had it in the back of my head that I could get dizzy...not a good feeling.
Hoda - Yep, still driving every day. I suspect the symptoms are not related to the apnea. May or may not be related to the concussion in May. Docs are still looking.
Hey Kay and Howdy Hoda! Good to see you gals! Kay, Julie is truly your Jewel! I am so glad that she is trying to pump the iron-building food into you. I bet Malcolm just LOVED all over Grandma!! Hope that you are getting sunshine bright enough to work! Not here! Oh, Hoda...there is no requirement for the visits! In fact, I suspect that if the rescue knew she was doing it, they would make her stop!! Fosters are not supposed to get so attached---which is why I could NEVER be a foster!!!! LOL----I would probably end up a hoarder! She is just a really good person, tho'...I think she is just a mothering type; her kids are past the stage of needing lots of the smothering love....so she has transferred HER need for that to the foster dogs.....Leisl and her littermate were her firsts.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHIRLEY'S KATHRYN! Hope it's a great day from start to finish!
Sharon & Thelma, glad to hear that Justin is officially on the mend! Healing prayers continue.
Hi, Bob! Good to see you here. Prayers for the "head issues" and the sleep apnea!
Lynn, great news about the rescued goldies! Hope they all find super furever homes!
Judie, you're right--Miss Emma is not lacking for doggy toys. Have to hide all but a couple and rotate them, or we'd not be able to walk safely around here!
Well, I'm working feverishly on medical transcription today. This doctor seems to have dry spells, then all of a sudden, sends LOTS of work! Will check back in later, but gotta stay on task right now. Wishing everyone a wonderful day. BBL! :o]
BOB, I feel so badly that you have gone undiagnosed for so long. I'm wondering how long you have had this Apnea...I guess no one knows. We will be anxious to hear how the CPAP works for you. Please keep in touch and let us know ((Hugs))
8 SB's torched outside door---guess the invasion is starting. Lynne---you need to ask your landlord to have your house exterminated in one of those tent balloon things!!
Webinar was very informative. Government is very serious about the efforts to ensure that animals are taken care of in the event of disasters. It was audio and visual slide, as well as a running commentary like NBG has on their cam page. Q&A at end---we typed questions and they answered aloud.
Those SBs are starting here, also. We have them on all doors and windows, just waiting for a chance to come in. You may find a way to get rid of them (we use the soapy water in a spam can method), but there is always more where they came from:(
Hey, Lynn, that sounds really neat! Amazing how we can communicate these days. I hope I live a very long time, just to see all these wonderful things that they are coming up with and inventing. GG says that the Computer BLOWS HER MIND!
Storms starting I have been reading Got back at 1 Jordyn is still sleeping boy does she like her naps still She should be waking up any sec not Gonna power down Storms are really getting loud Wonder she is sleeping through it BYE Going to Angies so may not check in till tomorrow
I had this typed and forgot to send JUDIE Yep the one with no tail we can saw we new WINTER before she became a movie star That place was packed today Have newver seen it so busy Now off bourse there were looked to be two classes there were two buss out side when we left we get there at 9 and try to beat the rush They are still under construction big time I just don't see it coming together in time the movie goes public Fri tommorow nite There was a RED CARPET viewing with some ot the actor there last nite Was all over the new Ruth Eckard Hall is were it was at and they lost power last nite also when the movie was suppose to start but got it all together in the end.
KAY stopped in YEAH I know can't we just go on and on and on LOL
Judie, I'm watching Harry's Law....bet they won't get many street thugs in this new location! Shoe store still there....could it be the same building and they just are now renting the upper floor, I wonder? Harry's as feisty as ever, isn't she??
Hunter is working on his math homework. Keeps arguing that he is right and I am wrong, but then he realizes that Grandma is right. Hmm, this is better than arguing that he wants to have some wrong answers so he can be like the other kids.
Hi Hoda. Really hope you and the paddling team had a good end-of-season final voyage along the river. Oh, and a little extra sleep never hurts.
Kay, what a terrific way to speed recovery -- dinner cooked FOR you with a side-dish of Malcolm kisses. Thanks for visiting.
SBC = 6. Love the observation about flies from Lynn's MIL. So true.
Yes, Lynn. Harry's character is still the same but I'll just have to give it another try.
Wanda, I was reading the blog in the office and read Karla's cure for unfinished tasks. Laughing so much he wanted to know what was going on. He read the comments and wants me to copy and send to him. Do I have your permission? Says he doesn't want to end up in copyright court.
Shirley, from this point on you are to be known as Saint Shirley. Sure hope there weren't too many math problems.
Dear Friends, I finally got to use computer & did a whole set of hummers that are now mostly invisible! I set each pic on the Google Chrome blog set-up to X-tra Large & when published, it cut them off!!!They must have a set frame size. My problem is that I can't find a way to get back in to Edit to resize them! I'll be darned if I'll delete them and start all over, so I am doing some Searching!!!! BBL AARRGGHH
Go Jo!!!!! Endless SHRIMP!!!!! Try the Sweet and Spicy! Christie and I are going to take Carolyn for her birthday!! Mmmmmm...and garlic cheddar biscuits!
Judie, I don't think there's any copyright on that thing that Wanda posted. I had seen it on FB before Denise or Karla put it up!
Loretta---if ANYONE can figure out how to fix the pix, it is YOU!!!!
Oh, Shirley...too funny! This boy has got to learn that Grandma is ALWAYS right (even IF/when she might happen to be wrong occassionally!). KIDS!
Lynn,Thank you for your confidence which is more than mine,but You are Wrong! I don't have a picture problem, but a Google problem. These techie things are Greek to me!!! I'm getting a headache. One thing told me to go to bottom of blog page (which one????) and click settings, then allow some new thingy! I don't see any Settings!!!!! ARGH I refuse to read thru 100's of pages of ??? & answers!There should be a Peggy on a phone!(PS: while I'm at it---why won't it take an X-tra lge. pic?There seems to room.)
Very good day to every one...it is almost evening back east so I hope you have enjoyed it so far. It certainly feels like autumn here and I feel like having soup!!!
I am glad your web conference went well LYNN and that you found it informative. Technology is amaing when it works.
LOL at the math escapades at SHIRLES'S roost. Very entertaining. You are an angel SHIRLEY. HUNTER is cute.
I might not go to Paddling if the COWBOYS and the SKINS are playing tonight...
Remember War is not healthy for children and other living things!!! from the sixites poster I am sure you will remember.
OH MY OH MY OH MY!!!
How are we going to keep the peace on our blog? The first salvo has already been fired across the bow...could there be time delay or will LOLLY fire back when she reads the avatar...
It is OK LOLLY I discontected the horn on my car...not everyone will be honking, keep your cool...
It must be the confidence and feeling extra secure because LYNN spent the afternoon with the Homeland Security Team...LOLLY she did not mean anything by it REALLY SHE DID NOT!!!
I need a cup of tea...OOOOPPPPSSSS I should not have said that!!! You all threw the tea overboard in the Boston Harbour...I will see if I have any coffee, I need something to calm me down...I do not like war...
hi all, popping in from work....STeve just called to tell me that he has killed well over 500 stinkbugs in the house, just since I left for work at 12. This is NOT good. I killed over 100 between last night and this morning. He said the side of our house must have thousands of them. I'm almost afraid to go home.....
Red Lobster garlic cheddar biscuits! Makes you keep wanting to go back!
I get the Crab Linguini Alfredo Love it and I only get the half plate. Hubby always gets a large garden salad with grilled chicken strips - he does like the biscuits.
Hoda, DC goes kind of crazy during Dallas Week. Long-standing BIG rivalry!! Lots of bragging and dissing on both sides!!! Always has been...always will be!!! And it happens twice a season!!!
As LYNN said it is all in the spirit of fun and there will be a winner and it will all calm down as JO said, till the next time she added!!! LOL...I read the article in the link and there is rivalary for sure...ENJOY ...
A great many years ago, General Robert E. Lee had to make a very difficult decision. Go with the North or the South. Like Lee, I made my decision a great many years ago.
Got some vireo & hummers on the Nook. I accidently got page open w/lidt of posts where you can edit, etc. Saved it as Bookmark on Chrome, but danged if I know where it is!!! Since the pics won't show as large as I'd like them, you can double-click to see the clear ones better! LOL I'm gonna eat something!! BBL(unless I go picket Google office)
Lynne---are you home or babysitting tonight?? CANNOT begin to fathom what you are going through with those darned SB's. Sorry----I would be ready for the asylum if I was you!
Back from the Melting Pot. We had a nice dinner, but the picture they took isn't working. The frame covers up half of me and a part of Kathryn. She should have had us lean in towards the center. Maybe we can copy it and shrink it a bit.
The picture was part of the birthday package I bought.
Home now, and Steve killed about 100 more since I talked to him from work, and we killed about another 100 since I've been home. THIS IS JUST AWFUL!!!
BUT....in the midst of the madness, you'll never guess what greeted me at the door!
TWO brand new Monarch chrysalis and 2 cats hanging in a J waiting to turn!! YAY YAY! My milkweed was so lousy this year, and I only saw maybe 5 adults all year this year, and I did see 2 females lay eggs on the milkweed, but never found but one tiny cat. I'm so excited! One Crys is hanging on the little over head awning above the door into the sun porch, the other is hanging from the bottom of siding next to door, and so are the 2 cats!
And Steve found a Ribbon Snake out in the dog field this afternoon while mowing!
Well, I do hope Mei Lan doesn't develop multiple personality disorder. Bless his heart. Wish him well.
Lynne, out of all the misery there is something joyful to celebrate. So happy you have butterflies to be. Maybe this should be another issue for your landlord -- stinkbug extermination. Well, it was wishful thinking.
Shirley, glad you had a nice dinner out. You deserved it.
Judie, based on Steve's observations of the outside of THEIR house next door when he took the mail over, they are dealing with the same thing! No know way to kill them. Wish they'd hurry up and figure something out. Can't even imagine what this huge increase will do to the farmers....OMG! If I remember correctly, the most we had in one day last year was 200. BUT, it seems like they are later this year.
Whew.....life sure is busy and exhausting!! Good evening to you!!
Today was another busy one for me working at both locations, so it was a full day today. Glad it's only once a week!!
Loretta – I like to work, but I don’t think I work too hard. I wish I could accomplish more in a day. Many days I think I sleep as many hours as I am up!! Love my sleep! LOL
Shirley – My son’s birthday is today, too!! My Adam is 24 years old today and I must say it is a day for me to celebrate as much or more as him! Today I celebrate the 24 years of love, happiness and joy he has brought to my life. I am truly blessed to have such a grounded, strong Christian young man as MY son!!
KAY – If I remember correctly, the 23rd is your Julie’s Birthday!! Happy Birthday to Julie tomorrow – your wonderful caring daughter who we are thankful is there for you during this difficult time you’re having. Praying that you are feeling better with each passing day.
Margy – Hoping to hear you had a great day with James the Wise! Come on over anytime tomorrow for our tomato canning session, okay? I’ll have the coffee on early! It would be so fun to can with you!!
Wanda – We couldn’t get green beans this year for nothing!! Dennis planted 50 feet of green beans TWICE. The bunnies got them both times and they are still enjoying all sorts of things in the garden. They are even eating the lower grape leaves!! They are adorable, though!
WV Dana – We will enjoy the tomatoes, especially because I like to cook it down to a thicker sauce or puree for sauce. We can also give some jars to friends and family.
Well Thanks Paula.... ☺ that is a neat picture ! I guess one can never have enough of those yellow tennis balls... like when they disappear for awhile I'll make a picture of it for James to see when I see him next...
Hello Eagle Pals...
I saw an electric fly swatter today, being used on you know what: Stink Bugs! Big invasion down at the other grandmother's house in Shepherdstown zaps 'em fast and silently...just a little spark !
Lynn: sounds like a nice little reunion this morning with Liesl and Lori... ♥
the house you mention with the tan siding..if I saw correctly today...is the former Mayor Moore's house...I think it is called The Summit House...mine was on South Mary Street, across from the church.... It used to be tan when I was there, is white now; very uninspiring, but in better shape than when I had it
If it was in 1987, (I am trying old math on this) I believe Autumn started on Sept 22 that year...so now it might come down to the time on that day he was born... I was googling
Margy, glad you had a great day w/James. What a wonderful SB nabber! Is it like those zappers? Sounds like something for Lynne!
I guess there might be Something on TV, but I hear boring blabbering-politicicans. Been working on other pics & got a brain cramp on a common flower name!!Had to go thru plant book. Must be senility!! LOL
I cheated...... I googled it and found a site that tells the date of the autumnal equinox and it even mentioned the 23rd was on a Wednesday in 1987. Adam was born on Tuesday evening!! I don't think I saw him until after midnight, though, so technically I didn't see him till the 23rd.
They had to do an emergency c-section and it took forever for me to come out of the anesthesia!
Okay, Linda, you are good on Google ! by the way, I remembered what I read about freezing tomatoes, seemed like a lot of work because the info said to remove all the seeds....? that seems impossible!
Is your son nearby? I know you have probably mentioned it but I apologize I do not remember

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 511 Newer› Newest»Margy----your old house is getting vinyl siding on it! Beigy-colored....looking nice!!! You gotta go drive by!
heading to bed. have a good night and prayers for all!
Oh gosh---adding Hope to the prayer list! Please let her be OK.
Linda, you are such a worker!I don't know how you do it!
Margy, how odd the leak stopped at the wrong time!
Lynne, sure hope you can let someone else fight for your tags! Hope you get them soon & you two don't have to stay involved. Sounds like a creep that might not be in business long!
Shirley, I was on a bowling league for almost 20 years. Loved it-had to quit for surgery & knees weren't happy. We played duckpins--smaller balls. If I had to use a 10-12 pounder, I'd be down the alley, too!
So sorry about Suz's Sheba. Guess I'll have to write her snail mail.
Still got one camera to dwnld & then of course pics that didn't get on yet---like hummers!Hopefully tomorrow.
Wishing for good health to all, especiall Kay & Diann~~
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)
Margy, have a good afternoon with James the Wise!
Jo, bet the Frederick Fair is still great. I remember going a time or two as a kid, as well as Gaithersburg, and Harrisburg!
Oh, Judie, so disappointed to hear about Harry's Law changes....recorded it....may have to strike it off my list.
You can switch to Criminal Minds!!
No rain here since I got home---and not much while I was gone. Cloudy now---can't see a star in the sky! Grest nighttime chorus....cicadas/katydid's/crickets/tree frogs!
Did anyone see Tony Bennett and k.d.lang on The View this AM/ They sure complement well each other in the singing!
Goodnight to all turning in. Rest peacefully. We have many concerns to ponder, but sweet sleep will ease the burdens.
Just read where Hope is missing. Quickly went to fb to read the article. Now I am going to have nightmares!
I am taking Justin to Beckley in the morning to an orthopedic doc. Appointment is @ 8:15, going to leave about 7. I will let you know what they say.
Sharon, we will be thinking of you and Justin in the morning. Hope he is not in too much pain.
I checked facebook and saw nothing about Hope being located. I'm hoping she found an old den and is claiming it for her own!
(((HUGS))) for Justin and Aunt Sharon, too♥♥
Love KD Lang's voice and Tony's too, wish I had seen the View!
I had a really nice visit with GG today. She was in such a great mood. We sat out on her porch and I watched as she dead-headed her flowers...just like old times:)
Oh, you all went away and left me all alone:(
Good idea!
I'm going to turn in also!
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL
I made a post on FB on how to make a list...it works for friends and pages!
Just got the bear report...Hope is missing...
OH, Lynne...microwaving is killing the nerve that carries the pain sensation to various parts of the body (something like that).
DIANN...Soup Kitchen didn't run out of food...or was that DANA that asked?
Hey, gals...these falls have GOT to stop!!! People will accuse us of either being drunk or having dementia! It is a sign of both, you know!!!!
On that happy note, I will say goodnight and God bless.
ONE MORE TIME...
It's late night and all the kiddies are asleep, so I can post this. Karla had this on facebook:
Karla Wright Adams
For everyone who is a little stressed, I am passing this on, because it definitely worked for me today, and we all could use more calm in our lives. I looked around my house to see things I'd started and hadn't finished, so I have managed to finish off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of wum, tha mainder of Valiuminun scriptins, an a box a chocletz. Yu haf no idr how bludy fablus I feel rite now. Sned this to all who need inner piss.
Heading to bed, see ya in the am
(((Hugs for all ♥)))
Oh, Wanda...thanks for the laugh. That was good, needed that before heading to bed.
And, that is just what I am doing...heading to bed.
Night all! Sweet dreams!
Prayes for Hope tonight.
Prayers for Hope!
Wanda, just read that outloud to Jack. Even funnier when you read it outloud!
Wanda, that's funny!
Guess I missed most of the late nighters, but not the night owls.
Judie's sandman is whispering in my ear...."sleep, sleep." Have taken my medicine so I guess I'll listed to him. I'll ask him ot make his rounds and even to Hoda's.
God's blessings on everyone. A Prayer to find Hope unhurt too.
Prayers for all wants and for DanaWV to keep standing upright.
whispering.... Hoda, socks with sandals is find. Good night.
sorry, too many spelling and grammar mistakes but hope you know what I meant.
Good night.
Anything that keeps your feet warm will warm your heart!
I am headed to bed........ Still have
rain. Really anxious to hear some good news about Hope. She just may have found another playmate - The video of Hope and Faith play/fighting was good.
I will keep my hope and faith that all
is well.
Sadden tonight for my friend and yours, Suz concerning the loss of
Queen of Sheba. Suz will morn her and then begin to remember her in a very
happy way.
Off I go.........
Prayers for all of us and our needs
Hugs to all ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Hi, Gang,
Took me forever to get caught up here tonight!
Before it's too late,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DELPHIA!!! Hope it was enjoyable to the max!
Margy, prayers for your water leak situation!
Lynn, good editorial about the mass euthanasia at the shelter.
Oh, my! Prayers for Suz and for poor Sheba. SO sorry to hear the bad news. (((HUGS)))!!!!...and tears, too.
Lolly, glad you picked up Annie just in time!
Oh, WV Dana, prayers for you! Hope your head stops hurting, and you are not too sore tomorrow! PLEASE promise me that you will be even more careful from now on!
Loretta, that's so wonderful that Sherry found her jewels! Thank God!
So grateful that Danny is doing so well, too!
Linda, hope the hot bath does the job of taking away the aches & pains! Prayers for healing.
Margy, mighty glad to hear that the water leak from upstairs has apparently stopped! Bet your apartment does smell heavenly! I love the aroma of Eucalyptus too!
Have fun with James tomorrow!
Lynne, SO glad some progress was made with the car tag situation!...and SO sorry about the SB situation! Sounds like you are trouncing them tonight, though.
Thank you for the bear link. Praying that Hope will be found OK!
Prayers continue for Kay's recovery.
Lynn, yes, I saw Tony Bennett & k.d. lang too! Their voices blend beautifully!
Sharon, prayers for Justin's appt. tomorrow. Sure hope & pray he's not hurting too much!
Wanda, LOVE the message from Karla--hilarious!
Well, think I'll hit the sack too.
Prayers have been said for everyone, and every creature. Making sure the porch light is on.
Enabling both security systems. Sleep well, everyone. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you!
:o]
I will call it a night too.
Prayers for all of us as we deal with our aspirations and hopes and dreams.
Goodnight, Sweet Dreams and God Bless.
Having a little trouble relaxing after going out to play bridge tonight.
I won a whole four dollars tonight!! Highest score! I got some good cards and had some good partners.
Sorry to hear about Suzanne's kitty.
Praying that Hope will show up tomorrow.
Hoping that Judie has a good day at the schoolhouse tomorrow.
So very pleased that Lynne has made some progress on the license plate issue.
It is now September 22--Kathryn's birthday. A good excuse to go out to dinner this evening.
Love your joke, Wanda.
Hoping the glass of milk I drank will help me relax now. Going to head back upstairs.
Good Morning, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Shirley's Kathryn! I hope it's a special day for her.
HODA, you've got to be one of the busiest women I know! Well, you and Linda with that additional 56 lbs of tomatoes!
DIANN, I'm so glad you're feeling so much better! Answered prayers!
I didn't see much from KAY, if anything. I hope she's resting and continuing her speedy recovery. ♥
MARGY, have a great day with James and the other Grandma. What a blessed little boy he is!
LORETTA, awesome that Sherry recovered some of her most sentimental pieces of jewelry. I never thought of people having to sift through ashes like that. Glad it's paying off.
LYNNE, hoping your tags problem will be fully resolved before you have to take the car off the road. Next time go with your gut! :)
Today is a JUDIE teaching day. Lucky wannabe adults!
LYNN, I always laugh at all the new words we have these days like webinar! But how convenient for you!
ANDY, congrats on your paycheck from the doc! It's a real job!! YAY!
I'll see you Early Birds soon. CAM IS STILL DOWN.
Oh, LOLLY. Socks and Birkenstocks or like sandals...very hip & comfy. :)
Good morning everyone in eagle land. Up too early for me, but wanted to see Jimbob before he goes to work.
Lori, this is an ungodly time to up and about. Hope you and DanaMo don't have fog. Boy it's humid.
Going to catch up with last night's posts, finish my coffee and go back to bed.
Have a blessed day everyone. Catch you later. ♥♥♥♥
Hi DIANN! It's so wonderful having you here early...and I'm sure your hubby loves having you rise and shine before the chickens, too! ((BIG HUG))
Good morning!
Loretta-So cool about finding the jewelery. Annemarie lost a ring when she was a baby (yes she was only 3 and was wearing a ring, but I'm Italian and from NY and we love jewelery). Anyway she wore it to mass one Sunday and then I went out to do something, when I came back she had been in the baby pool in the yard with my husband and the ring was gone. The pool got dumped before I got home, we rented a metal detector and everything and never found it. It's always my dream that somehow we find it but since we dug the pool I doubt that will ever happen. I have never stopped looking for it though :(
I can't believe the number of posts to catch up on and comment on after I left last night. We are an active bunch aren't we! :)
I better keep reading...
No fog here in Hagerstown. Maybe further west.
Is there going to be a fall gathering of the group? I know some of us don't live to far apart and I would really love to put some faces to names. I'm still so sad about not getting to meet Kay. Maybe when we pick Aric up for Christmas. I don't think I have any extra days until then off of school.
Good Morning DanaMO!
I always loved it when little girls had stud earrings. My dad wouldn't let me get my ears pierced until I was in 6th grade.
No makeup until I was 16 -- even then I only wore mascara on dates!
LOL! No dates for Annemarie until she's 30!
Good morning everyone.
We are off to take Jussy to the doctor. Prayers that everything goes well and the best is done for him. Will let you know how it went.
T-BIRD & SHARON, Drive safely and thanks for keeping us posted about Justin. Glad you're seeing an Orthopedic doctor! Prayers for smiles on your way home. :)
Funny DanaMO! My Dad said the same thing when I was little, no dating until you're 30. Then in 9th grade he lowered it to 21... in 10th grade he said, "okay at 18 you can have a boyfriend." Then, when I turned 16 I could only go on a date if my older brother was going to be at the same party, game, where ever!!! No kidding.
That was my trash can...forgot to put MO on Dana.

Good Morning JUDYE! Totally forgot today is your day off. Thought you were boycotting the cam!
SHIRLEY tell Kathryn ♫ Happy Birthday to You ♫ and make sure you sing it LOL
I said something to my Dept Mgr the other day how the system has scheduled me at to be in at 8 and 830 from now on and just to let them know that I would not be in at 7 well she said I should go get with a manager and I said why should I that they all know that the schedule misses our schedules up all the time and if they wanted me to be 7-4 they would change it and I shouldn't have to keep reminding them on a weekly basis So I am working the set schedule Lets let them see how it is when I'm not there in the am before the mgr do the walk and thing may not be signed right then maybe they will remember to fix it and that I think I will like the new schedule that way I can sleep in and stay up late and I will be able to see the eagles in the am since sunrise is later and I am at work at that time Ok that is the real reason why I want to stick with the new schedule LOL
So the only time that I will be getting up before 7am from know on will be next year when time changes and the eagle arrive earlier and by then they may have my scheduled changed I was told to just come in and work my old hours but then I told them then I would be on a daily report and not working my scheduled hours and that can be held against you in the future OK enough of ms schedule
The gulf of mexico is full of rain we have a50° of rain today
OK now I am saying bye got to finish getting ready to go get Jorydn
Have fun with Jordyn, JudyE! Where you going if it rains?
Rain is several hours away if anything this afternoon I just looked on the Interactive map and it is far away for now and there is rain on the other side of the state we are surrounded by rain but not the state itself Most of the dolphin facilities are under cover the have two out side tanks and Winters in under a area where he is exposed like a big big open sunroof but the area around is under a roof and then you can go below and watch in the three windows below the pool They we will probably go to McDonalds she like to play on their slide and climbing them home
OK BYE
Big Prayers for Justin with Sharon and T-Bird on the Orthopedist's appointment in Beckley, going on right now!
Hope Justin will be having Happy Feet before too long !!
Good Morning Eagle Pals, and
Happy Birthday to your lovely daughter, Kathryn, Shirley xoxox ♥
Hope everyone enjoys this LAST FULL DAY OF SUMMER....
This time tomorrow, it will be Autumn ... 5:05 am EDT
Thinking of dear Suzanne....♥
Good morning! Happy Birthday to Shirley's Kathryn!!
I have a Kathryn too....only spelled different...Laurel Catherine!
Ashley's name is Catherine Ashley. Jack's name is John Ashley. Therefore...my daughter in law's name is a combination of my husband's and daughter's. lol More information than you ever needed!
It is a beautiful morning, 69, and we are getting a front today. Chance of rain, but I am NOT holding my breath!
Also, out to water pots this morning. Have a funeral to go to this afternoon. Father of a friend, cancer strikes again!
Really wishing that they see Hope today. It is really scary with her without a collar and not near her collared mother.
Good morning all.
Happy Birthday to Shirely's Kathryn!!!!
JudyE---on the right hand side of the thread page, scroll down to NCTC Website link for address.
Hope everyone is off to a good start today. Some nightowls may be sleeping in.
Nothing special here to report. Liesl's foster mom should be here around 11....throwing together a quick lunch in case she's hungry after her morning apptmts.
Oh Lolly, sorry to read of your friend's father's death....
I have had a "brother-in-law-in-law" pass away this week from Lung Cancer after a long battle.
Lynn, hope all goes well and you have a great time this morning with Liesl's foster mother
Lynn
saw your post about my old house...
it is difficult to see what could have been, and is not...for me.
And with not a single tree in that once beautiful back yard....
well, I shall pass on the drive-by but thanks for the information
Getting my morning in gear, headed out to pick up my grandson shortly
Best Wishes for a Good Day, Everyone
and special healing prayers for Justin today; will be looking for those updates when I get home
See you all later on...
xoxo ♥
Have a great day, Margy! And, Lynn, enjoy your visit with Liesl's foster mom. I am off to get my day in gear!☺
Have a great day, Momsters and Dadsters!
GOOD MORNING...
It is a beautiful morning, here in WV. 73° and sunny...going up to 80°With all of this warmth and sun, I think I will be able to pick my Fall crop of green beans, Saturday!
Fall beans are always so beautiful, no spots or insects and they are even tastier. Looks like Saturday's supper will be green beans, potatoes cooked in country ham and baked apples.
My shop is calling my name, but, before I go, I'd like to wish Kathryn a ♫♪♫♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY♫♪♫♪!
One more thing, LYNN, is your visit from Liesl's foster mom a friendly visit or is it a requirement?
Good Morning Everyone and Lurkers also.
Oh how wonderful Loretta.
Sherry found sapphire & white gold ring that Aunt Ann gave you and you gave to Sherry at age 16. Then the enggagement ring and that center diamond.
That is truly God's Blessings!!!!
It is also great about Danny. Prayers do help ( : ^j^
Prayers that Sissy is successful at
getting the point across.
Oh No Hope is missing???????
Lord let Hope be found please.^j^
Margy nice that you will have time
with James. Margy remember I crack my head a lot so watch those big words--abated but I already knew what that mean't. lol
Margy, sorry I brought up sad memories. Did I tell you all what I heard about our first house on Ridge Rd.? The lady who bought it from us passed away (also lung cancer), but her sons and their step-father stayed for a few years and then sold it to a single male schoolteacher. One of the sons was in the house recently for some reason, and told Christie that "our" beautifully finished basement is nothing but a mold-hole. The guy has not run a dehumidifier, and Travis said that the paneling and carpet is actually covered with mold and reeks. He says that the house really needs to be bull-dozed, it is so bad. Very sad......ex's uncle put SO much craftsmanship into the work he did for us. :(
Sharon prayers have already been
set up for Justin. Safe driving
and hope the drs there can help.
Good morning all.
Lynne2 there is no reason that guy can't give you another set of temporary so you don't have to park the car. Glad you got ahold of lady at DMV. I think he get off his butt NOW!!
Linda Linda all those tomatoes. Can't you find a busy road and set up a tomato sale??? That is if you have already canned enough for you.
Wanda that was so funny what Karla wrote lol
Happy Birthday to Kathryn today
Oh, Wanda, the visit is a friendly one. She suffers from severe seperation syndrome!!! If it's like the last time, she'll cry most of the time! She's a real sweetheart....but I'm not sure that fostering is the best "job" for her!
Hi, Bob! How's everything with you? Have you been observing the construction progress at BW?
Morning Bob hope your are having a good day.
Well I did not realize until I seen the comments. That today is the last of summer. Fall is a nice time....it's what happenes after that worries me. I do enjoy winter some though.
Margy sorry for the lose of your brother-in-law. Peace for him now especially since it was a long rough illness. Peace be with you and his family and friends.
Lolly sorry for your friends loss of their father. May they find comfort during this time.
JudyE I don't know why. The oher videos you put on has the start button and I click and the videos just go. These 3 or 4 can't remember new ones. Don't have a start button. So I click where it should be. It comes up big the one picture with thumnails underneath. I put the cursor on the 1st thumbnail and scroll (using my wheel) slowing and the pictues move LOL Thank you for posting ( :
On the cam for the red tail hawk at
Red Tail Hawk
I have watched it many times and always see it on the front near the screen. Never have seen if fly.
Okay, we are back from the doc with Justin. They said his toe was in good position and just buddy-taped it. He goes back in 3 weeks.
popping in to say HELLO!! On my way to work and will try to pop in from there!
Hope everyone has a great day!
SBBC this morning....46
Sharon that is great!!! Hope Justin isn't in too much pain.
Well I need to run to pharmacy since they aren't answering their phones since yesterday. Need a refill.
Take care everyone ...ENJOY THIS LAST DAY OF SUMMER !!!
Hey Lynn. Most of the Wildlife Drive at BW is closed, particularly the best parts so I haven't been making trips out there much. I did get the Visitor Center to take a couple of my books on consignment though.
Dana - Thanks for asking. Still having head issues. Found out I have sever sleep apnea. Will be getting my CPAP machine next week.
That would be "severe sleep apnea"
Here is some nice news......the rescue that Paula got Nick from saved 5 golden's from the Mercer County shelter this past weekend!
Good Morning - so thankful that Justin
will be on the mend now! You have had a
busy morning Sharon/Thelma. Thanks for
taking care of our boy!
Happy Birthday, Kathryn! Enjoy a special day for yourself - dinner with family sounds like a celebration!
Liesl gal, you strut your stuff and make your momma proud!
Dana, remember "Heads Up" at all times!
Wanda = what time will you Sat dinner
be on the table?
Shirley - I think it is great about the bowling league and the bridge club. You are making retirement sound good to others.
Sorry that this cam isn't working for us. Boo Hiss!
Oh, good news on the rescue Lynn. did they post on FB?
The foster Mom is still crying over Liesl leaving??? Doesn't sound like she should be a foster Mom...unless those are tears of joy and not sadness....but still...whew.
BoB, hope the CPAP machine helps. Is your place in Easton or Cambridge?
Margy, have a fun day with James!
Paula - We're in Easton.
Good afternoon all.
Hi Bob, glad you stopped by. How's things going for you?
Sharon, good news about Justin. So happy it wasn't worse.
Lynn, Harry's Law might be okay if I can get used to it. Just preferred the underdog store-front concept better. Guess the visit is over and I'm sure it went well. Sorry about the condition of the Ridge Rd. house. Sad.
By-the-way, Lynn, I couldn't help but remember when I read your comment about falling and dementia. Darth's mom started having frequent falls for no apparent reason. That was not long before the early dementia became apparent.
Margy, wishing you an amazing afternoon with James the Wise. Sorry about the death of your brother-in-law. Prayers for you and the family.
Shirley, that $4.00 is a good start on a 20lb bowling ball.
♪♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KATHRYN♪♪ and to the birthday mom.
Andy, so pleased you received a paycheck. I anticipate lots and lots of Emma toys.
Judy, have fun with Jordyn. Is Winter the dolphin with the prosthetic tail?
Okay, nearly time to depart for home. Wishing all a happy afternoon.
Lori didn't stay very long---did not want lunch. She cried, Liesl cried...!!! Sweet time for them both! And Liesl has a new toy, of course!
Wanda, I saw the wine post last night and re-read it about 3 times---TOO funny!!!! Your girls are great fun!
Judie - Except for the dizziness, headaches and fatigue everything is just fine. Seriously. Life is good. ☺
Bob - great to hear from you. I hope
your sever sleep apnea will be getting better with the use of the CPAP machine next week. I am thankful you got it
diagnosed. Don't want you falling asleep on the job! (hugs))
Bob, Darth uses a CPAP machine. It took some getting used to but he is sleeping more and feeling more rested. Sure hoping it will be a great help to you. Sorry the BW access is so limited. Love your pictures. Well, something to look forward to in the future. Take care.
Bob, how are the sales going? Great that BW is stocking them! I MUST remember to bring mine to our next gathering for another BQ autograph!!!
Shar--so relieved to hear that Justin's fx isn't TOO bad. Does he do any sports at school? Hope it doesn't mess up his whole season if he does.
Thanks Judie and Jo. Everyone I talk to that uses a CPAP machine says it has made a big difference for them. Even if it not the cause of my current symptoms I am looking forward to getting better sleep and feeling more energized. The sleep study showed at one point I had 49 apnea "events" during one hour. The longest one was for 92 seconds without breathing.
Oh, Bob....so many people suffer from the sleep apnea. The CPAP will really help you get GOOD sleep! My SIL won't wear his most of the time which really ticks us off.
Oh, for cute ! Liesl cried with her foster mom ! Dogs are so empathetic ! I got a Malcolm fix when Julie took me to their house for dinner last night. He was ecstatic ! She's doing the same today--nice and sunny so I'll be there early to soak up some badly needed rays. She is really "mothering" me, so concerned about my iron level and socking the proteins to me.
Haven't had enough stamina to do the blog justice but have gleaned some info.
So sorry to hear of losses suffered by MARGY, LOLLY and SUZ. Concerned about the missing Hope.
But, so happy to hear about LORETTA's kids recovering valued items from the ashes. And, to hear SHARON'S report on Justin's toes.
Missing you all and missing our cam, too.
♥L♥I♥B♥E♥R♥T♥Y ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Good morning /Good afternoon everyone.
Hapyy Birthday KATHRYN.
Overcast here today and I am hoping it clears for our last paddle of the season.
SHIRLEY I understand about having energy after an activity. I am glad you enjoyed yourself.
I slept very soundly...SHHHHHH I actually overslept this morning and am just having my first cup of tea...tastes great.
Glad to hear JUSTIN is back from the doctor's and that all is looked after for a few weeks.
I too am hoping that HOPE is in a den somewhere...I too thought hunting season was over!!!
Wow Bob That sounds like a record!
That is too many for comfort-- so I
know this will help and keep you vitalized! ♥
Paula....yes, it was on FB about the golden's.
Foster mom's tears are both happy and sad. She misses her "love bug" but she's also thrilled to see how well she is doing in all regards.
Bob, WOW----that's a LONG time without breathing!!! Whew!
Judie, I guess your MIL's situation verify's what I read about falling for no apparent reason.
More bad weather on th ehoriszon----flood watches out for most of MD and northern VA.....y'all be careful!!! Remember "TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN!!!"
How long does LIESL'S foster mom have to keep visiting? LIESL only has one MOM and that is LYNN so what is with the visits?
BOB I am glad you are very positive and I hope your book sales are also going well. Good on you for looking after the sleep apnea diagnosis and it must be a releif to get it named...I hope the other symptoms are addressed soon. Do you drive? When I got dizzy for a few days I wondered about driving...I still did but I always had it in the back of my head that I could get dizzy...not a good feeling.
SISSY-----did you go to the commission meeting???? Was it Standing Room Only???? Sure would have loved to have been there!
Hoda - Yep, still driving every day. I suspect the symptoms are not related to the apnea. May or may not be related to the concussion in May. Docs are still looking.
Hey Kay and Howdy Hoda! Good to see you gals!
Kay, Julie is truly your Jewel! I am so glad that she is trying to pump the iron-building food into you. I bet Malcolm just LOVED all over Grandma!! Hope that you are getting sunshine bright enough to work! Not here!
Oh, Hoda...there is no requirement for the visits! In fact, I suspect that if the rescue knew she was doing it, they would make her stop!! Fosters are not supposed to get so attached---which is why I could NEVER be a foster!!!! LOL----I would probably end up a hoarder! She is just a really good person, tho'...I think she is just a mothering type; her kids are past the stage of needing lots of the smothering love....so she has transferred HER need for that to the foster dogs.....Leisl and her littermate were her firsts.
Good Morning, Everyone!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHIRLEY'S KATHRYN! Hope it's a great day from start to finish!
Sharon & Thelma, glad to hear that Justin is officially on the mend!
Healing prayers continue.
Hi, Bob! Good to see you here. Prayers for the "head issues" and the sleep apnea!
Lynn, great news about the rescued goldies! Hope they all find super furever homes!
Judie, you're right--Miss Emma is not lacking for doggy toys. Have to hide all but a couple and rotate them, or we'd not be able to walk safely around here!
Well, I'm working feverishly on medical transcription today. This doctor seems to have dry spells, then all of a sudden, sends LOTS of work! Will check back in later, but gotta stay on task right now.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day.
BBL! :o]
Wishing you well BOB as the doctors continue to work on finding out the causes.
LYNN you have a BIG and KIND heart.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
A Good Thursday Morn
To you aLL.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Good Morning Jim ♥

Hello,
The glass of milk and the Benadryl did the trick. I am still trying to get the cobwebs out of my brain. I guess I needed sleep.
BBL---almost time for webinar.
Do let us know how the webinar goes LYNN.
Good Morning JIM...I hope you have a GREAT day, it is overcast here in British Columbia.
Time to head off to Yoga and I will see you all later. Enjoy the day...
Taking a break BBILW
BOB, I feel so badly that you have gone undiagnosed for so long. I'm wondering how long you have had this Apnea...I guess no one knows.
We will be anxious to hear how the CPAP works for you. Please keep in touch and let us know ((Hugs))
8 SB's torched outside door---guess the invasion is starting.
Lynne---you need to ask your landlord to have your house exterminated in one of those tent balloon things!!
Webinar was very informative. Government is very serious about the efforts to ensure that animals are taken care of in the event of disasters. It was audio and visual slide, as well as a running commentary like NBG has on their cam page. Q&A at end---we typed questions and they answered aloud.
Those SBs are starting here, also. We have them on all doors and windows, just waiting for a chance to come in. You may find a way to get rid of them (we use the soapy water in a spam can method), but there is always more where they came from:(
Hey, Lynn, that sounds really neat!
Amazing how we can communicate these days. I hope I live a very long time, just to see all these wonderful things that they are coming up with and inventing.
GG says that the Computer BLOWS HER MIND!
Warmest day we've had in over a week---77°!!! Wish it could STAY like this!
Hi, Jim! How are you?
Shirley...so glad you got a really good sleep!
Wanda, you can say that again. Like with flies: my MIL always said "kill one and ten come to it's funeral."
Storms starting I have been reading Got back at 1 Jordyn is still sleeping boy does she like her naps still She should be waking up any sec not Gonna power down Storms are really getting loud Wonder she is sleeping through it BYE Going to Angies so may not check in till tomorrow
I had this typed and forgot to send
JUDIE Yep the one with no tail we can saw we new WINTER before she became a movie star That place was packed today Have newver seen it so busy Now off bourse there were looked to be two classes there were two buss out side when we left we get there at 9 and try to beat the rush They are still under construction big time I just don't see it coming together in time the movie goes public Fri tommorow nite There was a RED CARPET viewing with some ot the actor there last nite Was all over the new Ruth Eckard Hall is were it was at and they lost power last nite also when the movie was suppose to start but got it all together in the end.
KAY stopped in YEAH I know can't we just go on and on and on LOL
Judie, I'm watching Harry's Law....bet they won't get many street thugs in this new location! Shoe store still there....could it be the same building and they just are now renting the upper floor, I wonder? Harry's as feisty as ever, isn't she??
Hunter is working on his math homework. Keeps arguing that he is right and I am wrong, but then he realizes that Grandma is right. Hmm, this is better than arguing that he wants to have some wrong answers so he can be like the other kids.
Hunter is hysterical:) Gotta love him!
Quick visit.
Hi Hoda. Really hope you and the paddling team had a good end-of-season final voyage along the river. Oh, and a little extra sleep never hurts.
Kay, what a terrific way to speed recovery -- dinner cooked FOR you with a side-dish of Malcolm kisses. Thanks for visiting.
SBC = 6. Love the observation about flies from Lynn's MIL. So true.
Yes, Lynn. Harry's character is still the same but I'll just have to give it another try.
Wanda, I was reading the blog in the office and read Karla's cure for unfinished tasks. Laughing so much he wanted to know what was going on. He read the comments and wants me to copy and send to him. Do I have your permission? Says he doesn't want to end up in copyright court.
Shirley, from this point on you are to be known as Saint Shirley. Sure hope there weren't too many math problems.
Okay, off to seek out dinner inspirations.
Later
Dear Friends, I finally got to use computer & did a whole set of hummers that are now mostly invisible! I set each pic on the Google Chrome blog set-up to X-tra Large & when published, it cut them off!!!They must have a set frame size. My problem is that I can't find a way to get back in to Edit to resize them! I'll be darned if I'll delete them and start all over, so I am doing some Searching!!!! BBL AARRGGHH
My dinner inspiration is - Red Lobster
BBL
Go Jo!!!!! Endless SHRIMP!!!!! Try the Sweet and Spicy!
Christie and I are going to take Carolyn for her birthday!!
Mmmmmm...and garlic cheddar biscuits!
Judie, I don't think there's any copyright on that thing that Wanda posted. I had seen it on FB before Denise or Karla put it up!
Loretta---if ANYONE can figure out how to fix the pix, it is YOU!!!!
Oh, Shirley...too funny! This boy has got to learn that Grandma is ALWAYS right (even IF/when she might happen to be wrong occassionally!). KIDS!
Lynn,Thank you for your confidence which is more than mine,but You are Wrong! I don't have a picture problem, but a Google problem. These techie things are Greek to me!!! I'm getting a headache. One thing told me to go to bottom of blog page (which one????) and click settings, then allow some new thingy! I don't see any Settings!!!!! ARGH I refuse to read thru 100's of pages of ??? & answers!There should be a Peggy on a phone!(PS: while I'm at it---why won't it take an X-tra lge. pic?There seems to room.)
Very good day to every one...it is almost evening back east so I hope you have enjoyed it so far. It certainly feels like autumn here and I feel like having soup!!!
I am glad your web conference went well LYNN and that you found it informative. Technology is amaing when it works.
LOL at the math escapades at SHIRLES'S roost. Very entertaining.
You are an angel SHIRLEY. HUNTER is cute.
Gotcha, Loretta!!
Hoda, what time do you paddle?
Oh, yes....agree with "when it works!"
OHHHHHH NOOOOOO!!!
I see a DECLARATION OF WAR!!!!
I might not go to Paddling if the COWBOYS and the SKINS are playing tonight...
Remember War is not healthy for children and other living things!!! from the sixites poster I am sure you will remember.
OH MY OH MY OH MY!!!
How are we going to keep the peace on our blog? The first salvo has already been fired across the bow...could there be time delay or will LOLLY fire back when she reads the avatar...
It is OK LOLLY I discontected the horn on my car...not everyone will be honking, keep your cool...
I should have seen it coming!!!
It must be the confidence and feeling extra secure because LYNN spent the afternoon with the Homeland Security Team...LOLLY she did not mean anything by it REALLY SHE DID NOT!!!
OH MY OH MY OH MY !!!
I need a cup of tea...OOOOPPPPSSSS I should not have said that!!! You all threw the tea overboard in the Boston Harbour...I will see if I have any coffee, I need something to calm me down...I do not like war...
The Silence is deafening...what are you all doing???
hi all, popping in from work....STeve just called to tell me that he has killed well over 500 stinkbugs in the house, just since I left for work at 12. This is NOT good. I killed over 100 between last night and this morning. He said the side of our house must have thousands of them. I'm almost afraid to go home.....
uh oh, I see Lynn has declared WAR on Lolly! Don't worry Lolly, I got your back!
Red Lobster garlic cheddar biscuits!
Makes you keep wanting to go back!
I get the Crab Linguini Alfredo
Love it and I only get the half plate.
Hubby always gets a large garden salad with grilled chicken strips - he does
like the biscuits.
Still feel like rain - heavy humidity.
OH LYNNE 2 I am glad you saw it too...Stink Bug attack is not as serious as this declaration of war on our blog!!!
MEMA jo MEMA JO Did you see LYNN'S DECLARATION OF WAR???
{ I am so glad you enjoyed supper }
Hoda---NOOOOO!!! It's not til Monday evening!! But this is DALLAS WEEK...I held off as long as I could!!!!
LYNN LYNN LYNN and what are we all going to do now???
This is serious...what happens in DALLAS WEEK?
Hoda, don't get your panties in a twist!!! We all know that it's all in good fun! But I am glad that I fired the first salvo!!!
YOU ARE FUNNY LYNN!...I was ROFLMAO
Hoda We are here for the duration - Believe me One will come out a Winner
Then the war will be over until the
next game!!! lol
Lynne Jenny got the shop vac out with a little water and bleach to
SUCK 'EM UP!
Hoda, DC goes kind of crazy during Dallas Week. Long-standing BIG rivalry!! Lots of bragging and dissing on both sides!!! Always has been...always will be!!! And it happens twice a season!!!
I saw a lovely skein of geese in perfect formation on the way home last evening. Now I just heard some overhead....but couldn't see them!
Hoda - Football news for pre-game
knowledge
lol Game is on 9/26 Monday at 8:30 pm
We don't need to get all riled up yet.
I think JO has said the definitive word on the Football dissing that happens: WE ARE HERE FOR THE DURATION
This is good...
I will go open the link posted by JO more football culture...Thanks JO...you are a GEM.
Oh my goodness, the Redskins and Dallas game is like the Olympics of Football, HODA. I think all of the United States loves to watch that game:)
10:00 Greys' Anatomy and Mentalist
View or to tape ?
JO---Grey's is on at NINE!!!
As LYNN said it is all in the spirit of fun and there will be a winner and it will all calm down as JO said, till the next time she added!!! LOL...I read the article in the link and there is rivalary for sure...ENJOY ...
Cool fact sheet you posted for Hoda, Jo!
A great many years ago, General Robert E. Lee had to make a very difficult decision. Go with the North or the South. Like Lee, I made my decision a great many years ago.
GO SKINS!!!!
I just saw that - thanks for the correction of time, Lynn on Greys'
I'll wait for the Mentalist...
Might take me 2 weeks to get my TV schedule in order.
After that delicious dinner I now will have my small ice cream cone!
BBILW
Glad you had a nice dinner Jo. Sounds yummy.
Hoda, Lynn fired the first volley and you should know her secret password is Fort Sumter. The war is on.
Dinner over. Going to put my feet up. First 48.
BBL
Red Pandas at NZ got their names!!
Pili (Clap of Thunder in Chinese) and Damini (Lightning in Nepalese)---they were born during a storm!
HONK!!! (But, I love you, Lolly!!)
Got some vireo & hummers on the Nook. I accidently got page open w/lidt of posts where you can edit, etc. Saved it as Bookmark on Chrome, but danged if I know where it is!!! Since the pics won't show as large as I'd like them, you can double-click to see the clear ones better! LOL
I'm gonna eat something!! BBL(unless I go picket Google office)
This is UNBELIEVABLE:
Oops!
Judie, you got it!!!! And I AM a southerner!!!
Lynn - I guess we will get a name change
for our loveable panda boy! Wonder if they will want to give him back to us!
Love all the pics, Lowreeda!!!
LOL, Jo---sure glad Atlanta didn't try to inseminate "her!"
Lynne---are you home or babysitting tonight?? CANNOT begin to fathom what you are going through with those darned SB's. Sorry----I would be ready for the asylum if I was you!
Heading for sofa with Liesl...time for Grey's. BBIALW.
Back from the Melting Pot. We had a nice dinner, but the picture they took isn't working. The frame covers up half of me and a part of Kathryn. She should have had us lean in towards the center. Maybe we can copy it and shrink it a bit.
The picture was part of the birthday package I bought.
I see ya'll saw the news about mei lan!
Home now, and Steve killed about 100 more since I talked to him from work, and we killed about another 100 since I've been home. THIS IS JUST AWFUL!!!
BUT....in the midst of the madness, you'll never guess what greeted me at the door!
TWO brand new Monarch chrysalis and 2 cats hanging in a J waiting to turn!! YAY YAY! My milkweed was so lousy this year, and I only saw maybe 5 adults all year this year, and I did see 2 females lay eggs on the milkweed, but never found but one tiny cat. I'm so excited! One Crys is hanging on the little over head awning above the door into the sun porch, the other is hanging from the bottom of siding next to door, and so are the 2 cats!
And Steve found a Ribbon Snake out in the dog field this afternoon while mowing!
AND, the Monarchs are on the move....saw 3 on the bypass heading to work, and one in the yard as I was walking in!
I love nature! Except for STINKBUGS
Well, I do hope Mei Lan doesn't develop multiple personality disorder. Bless his heart. Wish him well.
Lynne, out of all the misery there is something joyful to celebrate. So happy you have butterflies to be. Maybe this should be another issue for your landlord -- stinkbug extermination. Well, it was wishful thinking.
Shirley, glad you had a nice dinner out. You deserved it.
JO, I we don't have a shop vac...sure wish we did!
A bit early but already dozed off for about an hour. I guess the sandperson has already been here.
The night light is on for anyone who needs to arise in the darkness and for those coming in later from the West coast. Restful sleep for all.
Almost forgot.
Prayers for Hope.
Judie, based on Steve's observations of the outside of THEIR house next door when he took the mail over, they are dealing with the same thing! No know way to kill them. Wish they'd hurry up and figure something out. Can't even imagine what this huge increase will do to the farmers....OMG! If I remember correctly, the most we had in one day last year was 200. BUT, it seems like they are later this year.
Hey Margy, this pic is for you and James! Please tell James thank you and he is a sweetheart!
FYI to everyone else...James picked out a tennis ball for Nick, and Margy mailed it to me!
So my little Buta Buta is a he? So, somebody really screwed up, huh?
I watched a Person of Interest - quite
good and different! Liked the actors.
Now my 10:00 show
Whew.....life sure is busy and exhausting!! Good evening to you!!
Today was another busy one for me working at both locations, so it was a full day today. Glad it's only once a week!!
Loretta – I like to work, but I don’t think I work too hard. I wish I could accomplish more in a day. Many days I think I sleep as many hours as I am up!! Love my sleep! LOL
Shirley – My son’s birthday is today, too!! My Adam is 24 years old today and I must say it is a day for me to celebrate as much or more as him! Today I celebrate the 24 years of love, happiness and joy he has brought to my life. I am truly blessed to have such a grounded, strong Christian young man as MY son!!
KAY – If I remember correctly, the 23rd is your Julie’s Birthday!! Happy Birthday to Julie tomorrow – your wonderful caring daughter who we are thankful is there for you during this difficult time you’re having. Praying that you are feeling better with each passing day.
Margy – Hoping to hear you had a great day with James the Wise! Come on over anytime tomorrow for our tomato canning session, okay? I’ll have the coffee on early! It would be so fun to can with you!!
Wanda – We couldn’t get green beans this year for nothing!! Dennis planted 50 feet of green beans TWICE. The bunnies got them both times and they are still enjoying all sorts of things in the garden. They are even eating the lower grape leaves!! They are adorable, though!
WV Dana – We will enjoy the tomatoes, especially because I like to cook it down to a thicker sauce or puree for sauce. We can also give some jars to friends and family.
Lynne – That is horrible news on the Stink Bugs!!
Well Thanks Paula....
☺ that is a neat picture ! I guess one can never have enough of those yellow tennis balls...
like when they disappear for awhile
I'll make a picture of it for James to see when I see him next...
Hello Eagle Pals...
I saw an electric fly swatter today, being used on you know what:
Stink Bugs! Big invasion down at the other grandmother's house in Shepherdstown
zaps 'em fast and silently...just a little spark !
Linda
I guess you got the squash, and Wanda got the Green Beans !
So, good to hear that Justin's problem is mostly with a toe, that is going to be buddied with one or more of the others....
Whew!
Paula
I saw three cormorants flying at the Potomac today...neat birds, sleek and black
Loretta:
Great pictures of the Vireo and the hummers
Linda
my 19 tomatoes might make it to half-ripening...
would LOVE to be there during this harvest season, or ANY time for that matter ...
Happy Birthday to your son Adam !! ♥ ☺
Was he a Fall or a Summer baby back when he was born? Wanted to ask the same question of Shirley, about Kathryn....
Margy - Well 19 tomatoes is a lot for what you're growing!! Kudos!!
Don't know if Adam was a Summer or Fall baby back then. I thought he was a Summer, but how would I know?
Lynn:
sounds like a nice little reunion this morning with Liesl and Lori...
♥
the house you mention with the tan siding..if I saw correctly today...is the former Mayor Moore's house...I think it is called The Summit House...mine was on South Mary Street, across from the church....
It used to be tan when I was there, is white now;
very uninspiring, but in better shape than when I had it
If it was in 1987, (I am trying old math on this) I believe Autumn started on Sept 22 that year...so now it might come down to the time on that day he was born...
I was googling
Margy - autumnal equinox in 1987 began on September 23rd, so Adam was a summer baby!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KATHRYN & ADAM! 2nd generation Momsters & Dadsters!
Margy, glad you had a great day w/James. What a wonderful SB nabber! Is it like those zappers?
Sounds like something for Lynne!
I guess there might be Something on TV, but I hear boring blabbering-politicicans.
Been working on other pics & got a brain cramp on a common flower name!!Had to go thru plant book. Must be senility!! LOL
I cheated...... I googled it and found a site that tells the date of the autumnal equinox and it even mentioned the 23rd was on a Wednesday in 1987. Adam was born on Tuesday evening!! I don't think I saw him until after midnight, though, so technically I didn't see him till the 23rd.
They had to do an emergency c-section and it took forever for me to come out of the anesthesia!
Okay, Linda,
you are good on Google !
by the way, I remembered what I read about freezing tomatoes, seemed like a lot of work because the info said to remove all the seeds....? that seems impossible!
Is your son nearby? I know you have probably mentioned it but I apologize I do not remember
Hope there's better news on bear update tonight. Usually is on here about 11 PM. Of course there are many square miles one could travel.
^j^ for Hope
heading to bed. Good night and prayers for all!
Oh we are teetering on the edge of a
SPLIT Watch Out!
