Hi everyone. We are still trying to complete the "fix" for the computer. This is a test. BBL

Mema Jo said...

Well Good Morning and Judie it is good to have you be #1 and a Feather to you!

No cams - and I am going back to other thread to see who is here this am hour

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Good morning.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING ☼
JUDIE...how many feathers in your 'headdress' now? Don't forget the EAGLE feather that you once wore in your hair, you can add that to it:)

It's 84° here and I have some yard work to do...I will have to wrap a towel around my head to catch the sweat! Do any of you perspire profusely when working outside? It has become a real HANDICAP for me. I feel sure it has to be one of the meds I'm taking, but which one? I might would consider not taking it if it isn't REAL important!

magpie said...

Wanda.
I sweat furiously also !

Thanks for the New Thread, Steve....
and well, Yahoo Jo, you got us over here !!!

Geemonity: if it is not washing machines, and dryers, it is computers !! How in the world did Babylon invade your world, Judie...glad Darth and Peggy and not so glad about the big bucks....
fixing things up for you

Good Morning Over Here Eagle Pals

magpie said...

still cam looks pretty good this morning, my live feed is no-go


Happy Birthday to Jack !! Hope this is your best birthday ever, and if so...give a lot of the credit to Lolly !! xoxo ☺

Judie said...

Hi Ya'll:

I think we are back in business. The computer technician did this as a birthday present for Judie. We hope you and yours are fine. With our warmest.

Darth

magpie said...

Thanks Darth !!!

Nice Brithday present, not only for Judie but for US!!!!!

Mema Jo said...

Judy - I received the same email (I didn't open it) from James selebi. I think we should notify Sandi down there in South Africa and have her go punch him in the nose

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

James Selebi must love us all. I got one too.

Mema Jo said...

Hello Darth! You are such a great guy - We have missed your lovely partner as she keeps us in tune with everyone! You have a good day and take care of our/your gal.

Mema Jo said...

Wanda you need to get some of those headbands for outside work. I know it one of my meds that make that happen. I look like a drowned rat and actually have water dripping off the back of my head. I have tried on wide brimmed straw hats but I look so dorky.

Mema Jo said...

Margy, you out of all our bloggers never need to mind the 4 in a row rule that was ousted many years ago. What would we all do without all your comments! ♥

Mema Jo said...

Sharon, are you still having Lemonade days? I can't hardly make it out of the house, down the steps and into the AC car - the heat comes up to meet you face to face.

Lori O. said...

Thanks STEVE for the new thread.

The vet has switched FloBear's meds around a little and said if anything was going to make a difference we should see it in 24 -36 hours, so she is coming back Thursday to see him again, and if he's not much better, then, we will have to let him go. Gosh, I cried all morning thinking today would be it, so I'm grateful for another day to spend with him.

Thanks so much for all your prayers and kind thoughts.

Lori O. said...

LOLLY, I hope you and Jack both have a special day on his birthday today!

Mema Jo said...

Got an email from Ceil about good ole' Baltimore..........
Big break downtown but so far we are okay. Put water aside just to make sure. MM was okay as of last night. She is 4 blocks from it and could see the muddy water running into the Harbor.
Ceil

I miss having Ceil on the blog and just thought I would pass it along to others that feel the same way! ♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I miss Ceil and Mits so very much! :(

Mema Jo said...

Lori this may just be the thing to buy you more time with your precious bully. I was and will be praying for you and Flo Bear ♥

Lori O. said...

Thanks, Jo. They are sooo special!

Mema Jo said...

Happy Happy Birthday Jack - hope it is a very special day for you. Enjoy the ice cream ♥

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

((((((BIG HUGS)))))) Lori, Kate and FloBear!

Mema Jo said...

I'm heading over to FB to see Carolyn and Christie BBL

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I asked Steve why the cam would come on at night and go off during the day, if there is maybe a timer or something. Here is his reply:

There is no timer. We believe the circuitry of the cam is damaged, perhaps from the extreme heat, thus the inconsistent service. We are looking at the possibility of replacing it, would do it, if decided, in August.

NCSuzan said...

Judie, a belated Happy Birthday to you. So sorry for your computer troubles. You are an intelligent person, please tell me this; why do we pay for Norton if it does not catch viruses? I pay the extra for their "help" if I get a virus. I run Spybot Search and Destroy on all my systems and have for years. It catches stuff Norton does not. Is Norton just eye candy for the computers? Your problem just ignited my already doubting intuition about Norton. But here is the human nature part, I am afraid to be without it in case it is doing something! LOL!
Margy, you are a very special person.
Lori, thinking of you. I have had two sleep studies so if you have questions maybe I can help alleviate any qualms you may have.
Wanda, I love your sense of humor and your dedication to family and man.
Hoda, it is swell that you are back, also gracing us with your humanity and wisdom.
Think I have written enough for one post. Take care everyone.

NCSuzan said...

Lori, I am so sorry about your FloBear.
Be one with him today as you comfort each other.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

And that makes sense - comes on after it cools off at night and goes out when it starts to get hot again in the morning.

NCSuzan said...

Please excuse my ramblings this morning. Have had two cups of coffee and I don't do caffeine!

Sharon, the wedding photos were so very nice. One could tell that it was definitely a family day! But I just wanted to say that you looked stunning. Know you worried over the perfect dress and I think you found it!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Thank you NCSuzan! It was a perfect day for sure!

Judie said...

Back for a quick visit.

I cannot be outside for more than a few minutes before I begin to spout water as if I were a spigot. Of course, the gnats then find me irresistible. A headband would be a good help.

Agree Shar, I also miss Ceil and Mits.

NCSusan, I thought the extra $ for Norton was because the problem was so extensive. Must say, the two techs who helped resolve the problem worked most of yesterday and last night and then again this morning.

Darth brought home some CDs of medical tests from the VA hospital. Cannot "blame" the CDs, but it was after looking at them that Babylon showed up. Coincidence?

Lori, hope the meds work a miracle for FloBear.

James Selebi was deleted and then deleted again. Stupid Arse!

Judie said...

Today's lesson:

Melatonin is the body's natural chemical to induce sleep. Produced by the Pineal gland deep in the center of the brain. Pineal gland becomes active in darkness = release of Melantonin = sleep.

Janet said...

A FRESH NEW TUESDAY THREAD: THANK YOU STEVE~wooo hoooo

JUDY: i do remember the conversation, but didn't think she KEPT it..... lol. I figured after she met me she'd give it back!

I get those spam scams all the darn time. They go in my spam box.....and i just delete them. Unfortunately, yes, some are looking for the freebie, or are just gullible and will fall for this nonsense.

Just got back from our bike ride. Dang its hot out there. 92 already. I tell you, for all the years I was soooo cold all the time, I sure heat up and boil over now! lol. Had fun, but I have to get gloves or smooth handle grips. Those grippy ones hurt my hands.

Shower, lunch, then ice skating. May go out to the waterpark....thinking it'll be a good day for that. Less than 2 weeks til school and its not 110 out there right now!

Later gaters!

Lolly said...

Good morning! We had another very short shower last night...just one tenth of an inch, but it has cooled things off and not so much watering needed. nice!

had a special breakfast this morning. The birthday boy pulled a coffee cake from the freexer and cooked some sausage. Well, at least i made the coffee cake! lol

Thinking of lori and FloBear this morning.

When i fell i landed on my right side. my right arm is very sore. i keep lifting and excercising it. Do not want it to freexe up!

Welcome back, judie! Will consider the noodle strip...jack would enjoy it, i am sure. lol

Lolly said...

yes, i miss mits and Ceil, too!!!!!

Lolly said...

just learned that luke is not coming to see us today with the family. he has been sick...throwing up. probably doing this because of all the toad licking he did the other night. he is going to the vet today.

Sandi said...

Hi all!! No time to catch up on the blog as I'm paying for internet. Spent 2 FABULOUS days in the Serengeti - cannot even list the different animals and birds we saw - you'll have to wait for the photos (there may even be as many as Sharon has for Andrew's and Kelsey's wedding)!!

Today we arrived at a lodge near Ngorongoro Crater (do a Google search). Tomorrow we will explore the crater all day. Our driver is terrific - great at spotting and pointing out the wildlife and very knowledgeable with names and info. Just an outstanding trip so far!!!

Will check in again when/if I can!

Costume Lady said...

I am so happy for SANDI, to be on this wild adventure and to know she is the kind of person who will 'show and tell' us all about it when she gets back home. So looking forward to her reports!

♫♪♫HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, JACK♫♪♫
Hope it is a very special day for you and LOLLY!

Costume Lady said...

I will add my THANK YOU to DARTH for fixing JUDIE'S 'puter. Miss her when she is not here:)

MARGY, good to see you back on here, also. Hope you 'did what you had to do' on your days off and enjoyed every minute of it;)

LORI, I'm saddened to hear the FLO BEAR is not doing well. I do recall that she is quite old, but enjoy the time you have left with her♥

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

Did a little reading back. So good to see Judie on again. We were without Internet for awhile this morning because Comcast went down.

James Selebi? I am going to check my messages. I got one awhile back from someone whose name I do not remember. I deleted it, but it should still be in my trash can. Did not open it.

Only my still cam is working ... off and on.

One of Phoebe's chick's fledged late yesterday and returned this morning. I saw some of its short hops part way up the left branch and back down, but I missed the big flight.

Weather in So Cal, a bit cloudy, humid and projected to be 69-70° tops.

Kay said...

Thinking of and praying for LORI and dear FloBear.♥♥

JEWELS, I'm way outta the loop. Where have you and Christie been ? I hear you went through Columbus--wish I'd known--would love to have seen you gals.

Happy Birthday to JACK ! Hope you and LOLLY celebrate in style !

LYNNE, me thinks the boss over reacted. As others have said, you did no wrong and I'm sure the dog agrees !

Nothing new here. Life is Eat, Medicate, Exercise, Ice and Rest..over and over again through the day and night. Pain has diminshed a slight bit today and am cutting back on the meds--fingers crossed ! Counting on your ongoing thoughts and prayers Eagle Buds ! I♥Us ! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Hoda said...

Good morning and Good Lord!!!!

I slept for 12 hours!!! LYNNE and JUDIE This Melatonin is powerful stuff...

LORI big hugs to you and FLOBEAR.

Welcome back JUDIE and Thank you DARTH for your note.

I did not get a letter from The Selbi chap...maybe it is in my spam box...I will have to check.No I DID get a note from James Selbi in spam box...deleted right away.How do we know a connection to SANDI.

SANDI thank you for checking in and it sounds terrific your trip so far.

Hoda said...

JUDYE reported the scam to the FBI and to News station...I still do not see the connection to SANDI except that she is in Africa and could get to SA to punch him out...that must be it...I got it...

stronghunter said...

Hi again,

Did a bit of a quick read.

Happy birthday to Judy, Judie, and Jack.

Prayers for Lori and Flo Bear.

Prayers for the victims in British Columbia.

Hi, Sandi! So glad you are able to post. Can't wait to see the pictures.

Hi Kay! So good to learn you are on the mend.

Have some errands to run this afternoon, so I will be back later.

A little confused about the noodle thing. Need to do more research.

Lolly said...

Shirley, jo said she would beat me with wet noodles not eagle canes. That is where the noodles originated.

Lolly said...

Expecting laurel and boys in an hour. have no idea when michael and family is coming. going to go make 'orders' and start chopping for the pixxa. (Remember i am subbing a x for a last letter of the alphabet. my lap top sometimes does not do caps or the last letter. roflmbo

Mema Jo said...

Noodles
GLO started the Wet Noodles I do believe
Then we all started getting Eagle Canes and they came into play.

Need to hear from Glo and Sharon!
Norma Byrd was also in on it! lol

Mema Jo said...

Sandi - So thankful your trip is going so well! It is great to have an guide with so much knowledge!
We all had a junk email from someone in South Africa requesting a money deal &
I said that maybe Sandi would go Bop him him the nose for us! lol

grannyblt said...

I've been getting strange email the last couple of days--nothing offensive, just annoying. some are from my daughter who rarely emails me--we text or talk. She uses a Yahoo acct. wonder if it has anything to do with that recent hacking of Yahoo's passwords being made public?

NCSuzan said...

grannyblt, change your Yahoo password. That should help. Yahoo recommends it if you think you've been hacked.

Lori O. said...

Good afternoon! FloBear seems to feel more comfortable this afternoon. The vet upped his prednisone and backed off some of the thyroid medicine. She'll return Thursday to see what we think and how he's doing.

Also, trying to get some of the details of our weekend at Deep Creek this weekend sorted out. What a crazy time.

So glad to hear SANDI is having a great time - who wouldn't. I'm with JO, punch that guy in the nose for those annoying emails!

Hoping Jack and LOLLY are having wonderful b-day time, wine and food!

Thanks NCSuzan for the sleep test advice offer. Everyone in my family has had one or two, my Mom has had 3, so I think I'm covered. Must be a genetic thing. :)

Hoda said...

...and how I love the USA.
I decided to change my picture again and this is what I was meditating on while on the shores of the pond im Maine...

JudyEddy said...

Home for lunch and see we have a brand new thread


Thanks for the new TRHREAD STEVE

JudyEddy said...

The email has been around for years (2011) and further back I googled it and its the same as I got and it has nothing to do with her in Africa they are just teasing -- HODA

JudyEddy said...

funny thing I have been doing with my cats Jet is such a pig she will eat her portion of wet can and then go for Benny Who will let her so I pick him up and put him in the bathroom with the door ajar SHHH JET still hasn't figured it out This was he gets his share I think he has lost weight with her eating everything in site

JudyEddy said...

DON"T forgot to make sure you check the cam tonight I wonder if it will do the same thing ODD 100% I keep thinking its on a timer LOL or the heat I did email OD but have heard nothing

Mema Jo said...

Company of 3 fun filled ggd just left
NOW my feet are going up for a while..

JudyEddy said...

SANDI was on facebook
Options.Sandi Roberts
There isn't even a word to describe how incredible our 2 days in the Serengeti were!! We had fabulous luck seeing different animals and birds - over 40 different varieties in the 2 days!! Even had a vermet monkey jump into our truck!!! We are now at Ngorongoro Crater - will explore more tomorrow. Two days here, then on to Zanzibar.

Lori O. said...

HODA, that's a beautfiul avatar! You look so peaceful.

stronghunter said...

Why is it necessary to beat Lolly with wet noodles?

stronghunter said...

Just got back from the grocery store with Hunter. Wow is it hot out there.

Mema Jo said...

Because Lolly broke the Rule of No Falling Down

I am headed to the dinner table. Shirley, I hope you can cool off!

magpie said...

I really like that avatar also, Hoda... !!

Yep hot, I agree.

Jo, I know today was a special day, sounds like you enjoyed it !

Nice report from Sandi !
Know she is enjoying her time overseas....pictures should be a lot of fun

Like the improvement in the report about Flo Bear...hope and pray) he continues to be more comfortable....


Good Late Afternoon, Eagle Pals...

magpie said...

I took melatonin for a few days once when I was on night shift...a few years back....gave me weird dreams, and chiropractor recommended I NOT use it, for some reason he said it was toxic for me...he is an unusual practictioner, can tell me all kinds of things about myself

magpie said...

Good to see you NCSuzan !

Thanks LORI and MARGY...photo

Good news from FLOBEAR I wish him more comfort...

paula eagleholic said...

I see our lovely live feed is down yet again. The still cam is updating, tho.

Hoda said...

Heading off to yoga.

I found several free university courses to subscribe to for later this year and some wonderful podcasts and I am excited by the potential of learning and exploring spiritual evolution and health issues and choices.

I have been downloading the podcasts and the apps that would allow me to do so...

Life is good.

glo said...

Well lets see Noodles. 40 lashes with a wet noodle was a phrase very often used by Ann Landers. I often heard it form my grandparents growing up. Kind of like "You better quit that or i'm gonna have to give you 40 lashes with a wet noodle". It sort of meant "OK we need a silly kind of punishment that does no harm for a silly kind of behavior, choice, situation etc. " It means OK we noticed what you did and tongue in cheek you are in trouble , but its playful NOT at all hurtful.

paula eagleholic said...

Aha, read Steve's explanation.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACK!!

Hoda said...

Did you understand Steve's explanation PAULA??? How can heat affect technology as advanced as a camera??? I appreciated it and I accept it but I am not sure I understood it.

JudyEddy said...

OK home from work tomorrow is a 8-5 much better

OK where did I miss a update from Steve about the cam???????? JO

magpie said...

Well, it's that time again...to head on out, meeting at 8 then on to the rest of the evening...
Watered the dirt....still don't want to put too much water on hot leaves and blooms....so the dirt is now .... MUD

Paula, I have some come-back nicotianas now also !! Not blooming yet, but the others, Wowser !

magpie said...

Thanks, kind friends, for all your nice words and encouragement.
I continue to get sympathy cards in the mail, and greetings here on this ole blog...Thank You !
When I returned to work today, there was a lovely card signed by the staff of our County Prosecuting Attorney's Office...the folks I go to court with, it was a nice way to start my workday.

magpie said...

I will do my best to live up to the positive things you folks say to me and about me...

and for now, JudyE...back up to 10:39 this morning for Jo's post about Steve's comment on the cam...

JudyEddy said...

LOL - JudyE...thanks for the correction...I am comforted to know that I think neither Jo nor Sharon will mind that I got the two of them mixed up with each other

♥☺♥☺♥

magpie said...

for right now I am going to blame it on the heat, not my age or CRS

okay 'bye xo

JudyEddy said...

I went looking for just JO comments and didn't find it so then I researched more and found it Odd huh Now the still cam is yukie

JudyEddy said...

I am sitting here wondering how grass seeds got on the inside of my pants on my undies HMMMM ok maybe from my socks ?????

glo said...

Over the years there are a multitude of explanations for why this cam does not work at certain times.

stronghunter said...

Hi,

Oh dear me! I did not read about Lolly's fall. I still need to read back more. Hope she is okay.

Mema Jo said...

Thanks Glo for our Wet Noodle
explanation! It was one of those fun things

Mema Jo said...

Going in to the TV for a while BRB

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Hello everybody. Checking in from my phone. Comcast Internet has been out the majority of the day. No ETA on a fix.

JudyEddy said...

CAM IS UP it the dark why

glo said...

Getting ready to watch New York Med. The name of the show reminds me of a show Lynn and I always hashed over a couple of years ago called Boston Med. I will be thinking of her tonight as I watch this new show and missing our review of the show once its over. I hope its good. I love Medical shows atleast to a point.

JudyEddy said...

and stops right away toooo but comes back after refresh then stops

stronghunter said...

We had problems with Comcast here today, too. Wonder what is going on?

Lynne2 said...

Evening all...just popping in to say a quick hello and

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACK!

JudyEddy said...

SHIRLEY someone posted that a fiber optic cable had been CUT and no ETA

magpie said...

Well let's just throw the word WONKY out there for electronic things....

I think it was grannyblt who started using that term, but please don't trust my memory too much...
my Massachusetts sister uses that also...
had a discussion this morning at work on words like hornswoggled
and terms that some of the younger crowd were not familiar with

magpie said...

fiber cut, yeeow, thorny problem, amazed at how these things get discovered and fixed....

Lynne2 said...

Getting ready to head to bed, where in no time at all, likely just as I fall to sleep, Skynyrd will decide to do his "pillow walking". UGH.

Good night at prayers for all! Stay cool, tomorrow is gonna be a scorcher, and there is a chance of severe weather in the PM in these parts. This weather bulletin was brought to you by WeatherLynne, Manchester Vet Services leading meteorologist wannabe. (this is what they call me now!)

magpie said...

Loving Glo's posts about the show she and Lynn used to talk about,
how I miss my friend Sweetness

xo

magpie said...

'Night, Lynne and Steve and all critters big and small and wonderful

magpie said...

I think maybe Jack should get up real early before sunrise and check out Venus, Jupiter, and my favorite little star cluster Pleaides....with his birthday telescope !!

In a couple or few days Infant Moon will come back around and greet us in the post-sunset Western sky...

Hoda said...

NELSON is flooding!!!
When I came back from yoga I passed two spots where the crews are doing sand bags and trying to redirect the water...it continues to rain. I hope they keep up with it overnight.
Right about now some dry weather for the Kootenay region would be a good idea. Raining still in Johnson's Landing hampering the recovery effort.The beaches every where are washed out and the lake is the highest it has been in forty years!!!

are you on High Ground ???

magpie said...

oh my goodness I just caught a glimpse of Wanda's new avatar from her earlier morning posts
Love that GG !!

Hoda said...

I signed up for three cooking classes come Autumn...Anti Inflamatory Food, Indian Food and Asian Fusion

magpie said...

Judie, I need your help...would you please set a snare for the Night Bandit ...I need to escape his grasp for awhile...

in the meantime I will lock the bathroom door from his invasion because I need a full-scale bath !

back before bedtime, pals...

and meanwhile...Good Night in advance to those I might miss
xoxo

Hoda said...

Yes I am MARGY...Well above the lake and on a hill...I am alright, I just drove through deep water coming out of the Front Street way.
No worries, it will just get messy...I dare say the mall will have to be closed tomorrow if they do not get control of the water in its parking lot...It is right next to the lake!!!

magpie said...

hope your favorite goody shops will be high and dry too, Hoda...
so sorry for what's upon your city there...hope all will be safe

Sharon: trains here, & trains at my roost...you would like this !

tubby time....bbl

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

I want to suggest some reading for you all. James Herriotts Series of books. All Creatures Great and Small, etc.

Lynne2 said...

oh yes I'm still here....LOL!

Read them all when I was younger Sharon. Still try to catch the series on PBS. Will read them again soon. Even to this day, when someone calls to make an appointment to have their dog's anal glands expressed, I still remember the lady in the book who would call Dr Herriot and say "Tricky Woo's gone flop butt"!!

*********HODA*********

PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH WATER!!! IT ONLY TAKES 6" OF WATER IN MOTION TO MOVE A CAR.

TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN!!!!!

Hoda said...

I loved the series SHAR I read them and I saw the British Production of them...Great recommendation.

I put on FB a video of what Nelson Streets looked like...they are working on them though and it is improving...

Hoda said...

Thanks LYNNE I will not drive to the lower sections if the roads continue to be this way...I could do it all from Uphill Nelson and it is OK...I appreciate your advice especially since I drive a little little car...toyota yaris...

stronghunter said...

Thanks for the information about the fiber optic cable, Judy. When I told Hunter that Comcast was down, he wanted to know what had brought it down. He really seemed to think I should be able to provide an explanation.

Lynne2 said...

Hey, has anyone heard from Chrissy??

The email addy I have used for her in the past is no good. And I cannot remember the last time she has sent a momster email, regarding LOL or otherwise....she wasn't feeling well just a short while back, bronchitis, i think it was.

Lynne2 said...

Really must go now....

stronghunter said...

Sandperson has gotten to me. I am getting very sleepy. Had trouble sleeping last night, so it would be very nice . . .

Hoda, prayers. I hope the flooding stops.

Hoda said...

yet another mud slide in the Kootenays...40 minutes from Nelson. Highway west of here is closed. No fatalities no property damage in this one...the highway is all no motorists caught in it.

Mema Jo said...

I think I may have missed alot this evening.. Hoda please stay as dry as possible. Good luck with the court date, Margy. Tomorrow it's back to my closet but this time with Kris & Jenny!
Wanda you will be seeing me soon to stock your clothes closet!

I am very tired - I've been sneezing some but feel well.

Good night my friends
Think of you Lori and Flo Bear
Good to have Christie and Carolyn on FB. I do miss you Lynn ♥

I ♥ US

Hoda said...

Take care JO and I hope the sneezing goes away.

MARGY good luck with the court date tomorrow.

I promise I will be careful JO...no need to go anywhere if the floods are still on tomorrow. Fridge is full and I am up on a hill...

magpie said...

Whee Doggy It IS Tomorrow, make that July 18 on the East Coast....

Happy Anniversary Carolyn and Charlie !! xoxo Wishing you both some special one on one time with each other....xoxo

I had to rethink my post about court in the morning so I actually deleted the one I had on earlier..
court in the morning, that covers it...for a 911 call from last summer...

magpie said...

Sharon
I picked up "All Creatures Great and Small" last year, the book...at Goodwill....

Costume Lady said...

I was reading Glo's comments about she and LYNN discussing a Medical show they both watched...reminds me of CEIL and I watching Survivor. When it was over, we discussed the events of the evening through emails...I miss her and Mits too:(

Off to bed I go...love and prayers for all♥

Costume Lady said...

@MARGY...my avatar is of GG holding Brantley for the first time! She has always been too weak and unsteady to hold him safely, so I decided, last Friday, that she is strong enough to hold and feed him. She has talked about him all week and how sweet he is:)

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JACK!!!! Hope your day has been fantastic! (It's still Tuesday here in SoCal!)

Glad to hear that FloBear was more comfortable today, Lori! Prayers continue for him, and for you!

Hoda, please be careful! Glad you are on a hill, and don't really need to go anywhere if conditions are bad. Like your avatar!

Judie, glad your computer is cooperating again. It's about time!
SOOO glad you're back.

Happy to report that the plumber came out this morning, and got my kitchen sink unstopped. He was here for more than 1-1/2 hours, and only charged me $78! He gave me a written 30-day warranty, too.
He power-snaked all the way out to the street, and everything is draining almost instantly now. I'm a happy camper!

Glad to hear from Kay--it's wonderful that you're improving more each day! Hope it worked to take less pain medication. Prayers for you continue! (((HUGS)))!!

Forget who it was that asked if anyone perspired a LOT while working in the garden. I surely tend to do that! I think, too, that one of my meds may be causing the problem, but can't figure out which one it is!

Margy, hope your work day goes well tomorrow, what with the court appearance and all. (((HUGS)))!!!

Since it's now Wednesday back east,
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO CAROLYN & CHARLIE!! Hope Charlie's feeling much better now!
Also,
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MICHAEL & ASHLEY!

Well, better call it a day. Need to get some shut-eye! Prayers have been said for everyone, and for every creature. The porch light is on, and both security systems are enabled. Wishing for peaceful, restful sleep for everyone. God bless, and goodnight. Love all of you!
♥♥Missing Lynn tonight!♥♥
♥♥Carolyn & Christie♥♥
I ♥ us!

Lori O. said...

Boy, ANDY, you said it all! And, happy to hear your sink problem is solved!

Just took FloBear out to potty - it's the pred making him eat and drink more. Of course, FloBear is on Pred now, as I am, too, for the cough. We always seem to be on the same meds! Weird, huh?

WANDA, that is so sweet about GG talking about Brantley all week after holding and feeding him.

Happy Anniversary to CAROLYN & CHARLIE... also LOLLY's Michael & Ashley.

All this talk of wet noodles has me hungry for pasta, but Weight Watchers doesn't like it for me!

I'd like to ask for prayers today for my Aunt Jeanne who is having an ovarian tumor removed today. She's pretty sick. Thanks. I just know Momster Prayers are the best!
And, so are all of you!!!
I love us!

Hoda said...

Goodnight.

Janet said...

A quick good morning to you all!

Yesterday was a grand but busy day. We biked in the morning on the Nashville Greenway. It was hot and sticky (92) by the time we finished....and I was tired, but had fun.

Then, a bit later, took Olivia to the ice rink. It felt super cold in there, but probably in the low 40's. I actually drank a hot cocoa! Watched her practice some....she has class again Thursday and ... Friday night they are have an exhibition for the kids in the older/more advanced categories to show off their skills. I want to take her so she can be "encouraged"....

Took a load of "stuff" to the goodwill....less in my house and can help someone else hopefully.

Finally after dinner we did go to the waterpark. It sure felt good. The crowd thins considerably after 6 p.m. and its plenty warm still! The water was quite warm!

Now, time to get ready for my Wednesday massages. Hope everyone has a great day......Take time to share a kind word today or smile at someone who may need it. Hugs, light, and love to all. And smiles, for everyone needs a smile! :)

JudyEddy said...

Heading out the door for work

DanaMo said...

Good morning! Just a quick hello.

Finished my "aqua jogging", went to the grossery store, and have tutoring at 9am. The day has barely begun!!!

DanaMo said...

I'm going to try to start getting back on the blog in the morning. I miss everyone, and now I have no clue what's been going on.

Lori-I hope Flobear is doing better. Thoughts and prayers going your way! ♥

DanaMo said...

Has anyone been in the nest??

Lori O. said...

MT nest this morning, DANAMO.

Lori O. said...

Sorry, I missed your Goodbye, JUDYE!

Have a great day at work. Glad you're doing the earlier shift today. :)

glo said...

Good morning everyone. Still hot hot dry summer stuff here but some chance f rain in spotty places as a "cooler' front slips by. Ten more hot. i am going for a haircut first thing this morning it is so time. Then inside again today for the most part. I did really enjoy NY Med last night. YEP Lynn would have liked it. I know which part we would have discussed. Well of to coffee and dog treats. Prayers continue for Lori ans FloBear I am so hoping for some good news.

Lori O. said...

Thanks, Glo. We'll know more tomorrow, but he is a little better. I think it's all just a matter of how long he can handle the prednisone. My best to you & Dex in this heat!

Judie said...

Good morning (:

Lori, surely hope FloBear can continue to improve or at least stabilize. Saying a prayer for your Aunt Jeanne.

Andy, so happy for you with your pipe draining all the way to the street. Not expensive, either. Know you're feeling relieved.

Happy Anniversary to Carolyn & Charlie and Michael and Ashley.

Wanda, such a wonderful picture of GG with Brantley. Made my day.

Margy, hope court goes smoothly for you today. Margy, Night Bandit is here and locked in deep dark closet. Won't unlock the door until you tell me.

Jo, I sneeze sometimes if I have too much to eat. Weird.

Hoda, so sorry about all the mud slides in your area. Thankfully, no people were affected this time. Stay Safe!

Welcome Skynard!!! You are one very lucky boy to be adopted by Lynne2 and Steve. Enjoy your life.

Okay, got a couple of chores to do so BBL.

Mema Jo said...

Good Wed Morning! Today is the day the Jenny & Kris will be here to tear into my closet. In fact they are walking in my door. I will hop on and off throughout today. Wish me luck!
BBL

Sandi said...

Hi all! Another fabulous day on safari! Saw a pride of 11 lions that had taken down a buffalo and were feasting on it. Three of them were laying RIGHT IN THE ROAD!! Also saw a black rhino - very hard to see since there are only about 15 in the area.

Off to Zanzibar tomorrow. Will check in when i can. Hope everyone is well!

Costume Lady said...

GOOD DAY...

Wish I was on an African Safari and while there, someone was cleaning out my closet!:)

GG gets an EKG shortly...needs a good reading to be able to have her Nerve Burning procedure Friday!

Have a good day♥

Costume Lady said...

JUDIE...Capt. Gene sneezes when we eat at a buffet and he has cake and ice cream for dessert. BIG, LOUD sneezes that shakes the car:)
(too much to eat!)

Lolly said...

Good morning, whoops...Good afternoon, i mean.

laurel and boys spent the night. laurel brought more laundry. While here. the repairman came to her house, but did not have the fuse she needed. So...he'll be back. She may come Sunday with more laundry!!

my back and right arm are really giving me fits. The right arm is from the fall, i guess it took the blow. not a sharp pain, but muscular ache and hurt. Time will mend! Going to take it really easy today.

Sandi's trip is unbelievable. What a thrill!

Lolly said...

Luke has had diarrhea and it is all from playing with that little toad on the patio last Sat. Dogs, beware of toads.

Lynne2 said...

Puddles, in 3 summers with us, has yet to learn about toads. She picks them up quicker than heck and foams at the mouth and still goes back the next time. So far, she hasn't gotten sick. However, the substance they secrete is toxic and can cause problems over time. We do try to keep a close eye on her...

Hi from work!


Just wanted to pass along....

Severe T'storm watch

Lynne2 said...

So sorry about your pain Lolly....

JudyEddy said...

Home for lunch and see the cam is down naturally

JudyEddy said...

LOLLY they gave warning here in Fl about the toads and snakes especially the toads are coming out from all the rains and flooded areas

JudyEddy said...

my neighbor has standing water in her yard but I don't she has to have flood insurance but I don't I am up on a brim I think thats what its called my house was built 40 yrs after all the houses around

JudyEddy said...

Got a response from Fox 13 they said they have had similar reports and they gave the email address to send it to Its the one I already found and sent it to At least I know I picked the right address
spam@uce.gov

should always report spam like this he said so I am glad I did

ok need to go to PO and back to work see ya little after 5

glo said...

OK you all batten down the hatches and be safe. Hang tight Missy and Bro

glo said...

I do hope as the storms pass that all of you will stop by and check in PLEASE.

glo said...

sigh

magpie said...

We had some pretty good downpours in the Martinsburg area....rather patchy though, missed some places, nothing too bad, not sure if we are done with it or now, but the garden sure likes the rain !

Hi Glo, I'm checking in ☺

magpie said...

I was out playing in the garden so I didn't know to check in sooner, Glo...hoping to hear how the rest of the Momsters and Dadsters are getting along also...
xo HI Dex !!

magpie said...

sure cooled things down for awhile though
it was really hot here today

magpie said...

What I thought were juvenile Blue Herons in Norfolk, might have actually been Yellow-Crowned Night Herons....
never had seen them before

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

We had a nice shower but nothing too bad.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Did you go to the Botanical Gardens in Norfolk, Magpie?

magpie said...

No, Sharon, but we were trying to work that in....with two little ones, we spent a little more time on their things than getting to the gardens....

magpie said...

I now officially have one beautiful deep lavender-colored Lisianthus in bloom !
A Megan Flower, of course !!
It's a beauty, and there are lot more getting ready to "bust out."

magpie said...

I'm sure Judie penned up the Night Bandit because I can tell he is wanting to "bust out" of that closet she penned him up in...
The answer is NO, NOT NOW !

magpie said...

speaking of Judie, it reminds me to say:

JudyE: Glad you seem to be on High Ground also !
A brim, that's a pretty neat term

Hoda said...

Good afternoon and good evening dear Friends.

A full day today.
I have not yet read back.
Yoga was wonderful and challenging and it was about change and how do I deal with change and what are the steps that happen in my body when faced with change...

I went for a cold fruit smoothie with a friend from yoga and then went to sign up for a white water rafting trip in August. It is a 12 hour trip so the day will be long but I am looking forward to doing it.

The streets are mostly dry and yet they are still cleaning the city. Downtown is back to being set right and the Wednesday Market is a go. A few blocked intersections as they are still working underground...manageable and I am grateful to the city that they got on it right away...they do a good job of keeping us a beautiful place to be.

I will be back after I read up and have a cup of tea...it is hot but I am in need of a cup of green tea...

magpie said...

All sounds good, Hoda...
I admire your activity and your outlook...

magpie said...

Time to run along here...
I'm forgetting a bunch of stuff..
court went OK, but the defense lawyers always seem to make me a little uneasy, guess I need more practice. It's the part about "just answering the question" sometimes when I want to say more, eventually I will learn how to do that.
Trial still ongoing into Thursday I think but I am released from any more on this one.

JudyEddy said...

Sharon posted this on facebook I found the link to explore.org so if you don't have facebook you still can see them OH MY these are the cutest pups they are service dogs for our troops so neat they are sleeping right now starting to wake up and there are lots of other cams a cute panda cam and others Check it out

Service puppy cam

Hoda said...

Exciting about SANDI'S trip.

VERY HAPPY to read about FLOBEAR continuing to do well...HUGS to you and him LORI wouf wouf...

SORRY about the pain LOLLY...not so good. Glad LAUREL might come back to visit on Sunday...good thing this breaking of the washing machine, you can get in a lot of visits. Sorry about LUKE.

Stay dry JUDYE and I hope you do not have floods. Glad you reported the spam to the right place.

I hope LINDA is having a good time of it in Florida and that the work is going well.

MARGY MEGAN flowers in bloom...terrific. I wished I lived closer I would go to MEGAN and get my plants too.

JudyEddy said...

With all the rain we are having the people up north of us in Pasco Co are still flooded and guess what they are still going to get help from the gov I think that is great they are still letting it fall back on Debbys the storm So glad HODA your area is doing better We have more rain on the way in from the gulf OH and guess what for the next week we are going to have the Sahara Dust coming over from the Sahara desert Miami already has it we should be the next day or so for a week or so

magpie said...

Yes, thanks for helping me remember that one Hoda...
Lolly, Heal !
