Brrr......cold today. I'm in my fluffy fuzzy and very warm pj's as it's too early to turn on the furnace. Doggy is content to sleep in her bed in the living room but kittys are cavorting all over this 800 sq. ft. house, maybe it's more than that but not not much,
My daughter in Dallas won a 47" TV through a school lottery and her son, Bradley, (my g'son) promptly confuscated it for his X-Box. When she confronted him about this he told her that it's better to ask for forgivness than to ask for permission. So he acquired a new gaming theatre for himself.
Speaking of Dallas -you gamers had 2 earthquakes there in the early AM. Everyone is OK, I hope -any damage?
Enjoy your day

Thanks for asking Lotus  . Yes, I am happy to say I was able to walk to my doctor's office. It was not quite where I thought it would be, just a little further on. Whoo Hoo! Took 1/2 an hour there and back, so really not that far at all! But, have to admit the calves are tired and a little painful. Will walk in a different direction tomorrow and see how far I get. I'd love to make it all the way to Main street and the Dairy Queen. No car. Plan to rent for October at least (Twice in the month). I don't go out that much anyway and as long as I don't have to worry about getting groceries and what not I'm not too worried about it. It's an adjustment but a relief not to have to worry about repairs anymore. And truth to say it will be wonderful to drive around in a semi new car instead of of my old 17-yr old banged up car. It certainly is a beautiful day here. Still have lots to do here and will settle in later with a game. Ana, I don't know how far town is. Maybe a couple of miles? It's further than I can walk right now, that's all I know. But I will get there. It's not an unreasonable walk. Looney & Soot - Glad you are together again. Welcome back Soot. Happy Sunday all!

Holy Moly I sure am late but it has been one of those run around days. Trying to find a rib belt or abd binder but no joy today! Then went to the Moose for a late breakfast cause the ladys had a fundraiser. Then ran to daughters for a few and then picked roomie up at work. Now I shall relax till time for BINGO!! we are going because every three months they draw ten names from all the names of the people who have been fortunate to win at BINGO in the last three months. And I know my name is in there a few times!!  Should be fun! Joe enjoy the day off and thanks for the laughs. Ana were you able to finish the project??? Have a lovely day! L4l and Soot enjoy the day relaxing! Sharon my daughter walks everywhere cshe goes or takes the bus. She says that she doesn't want to learn to drive.  My granddaughters do the same. Except the twins have their license and one has a car but she go to college out of town and state. I wealk a lot cause I have my puppy dog that likes to go out once in awhile.  Have a wonderful day Connie, Gail, Lotus, Cailyn, Gerry, Haroula, Midge, Darlene, Space!!  Nan

Hello everybody.  I'm as happy as a monkey in a banana tree.  I'm as happy as Golum with the one ring. "My Precious" I walked around looking for arrowheads for about 3 hours. I walked all over the hills next to our neighbor's place, and then back behind our neighbor's house on the hill going down to the creek, and then down around the creek, and up the hill, and all over the pasture on the other side of the creek. I found dozens of flint flakes, chips, and chunks, both yesterday, and today. I was headed back up the hill to the neighbors house, and walking over ground that I have walked over hundreds of times, when I walked over to Baby, and bent down to pick her up, and I found this beauty sticking out of the dirt.  It is the first point I've found in months.  We know that the hill underneath our neighbors house is where the native Americans had a camp or village.  joe

WooHoo Joe! Well done.  You deserve it for as hard as you look. Nan, did you hurt your ribs? I can't imagine not being able to drive. I remember last year when I had my appendix out and it hurt to drive, I still had to try daily. I finished writing but it's not done since that is not the final version. I should be replaying but that's not happening right now. Fortunately it's one that was not a short deadline. Sharon, as long as your winter isn't too bad and you can get out there everyday, you'll be jogging to Dairy Queen in no time. Lotus, how was the doctor visit the other day? Thanks for the compliment. What's the next project after painting. Haroula, how fun! Glad you have time to visit with your parents still. Ana

A bit of excitement about 5 blocks from us. There is a VFW that was having a charity event. A motorcycle gang, the Warlocks, that are divided into two groups got into a fight. Guns came into play and three people were killed. This is right next door to the ball field were children were taking batting practice. A boyfriend of one of Robert's friends was involved. He didn't shoot anyone, but is in jail. She is very worried. This happened around noon, but it is still all taped off. The police are still interviewing eye witnesses. This VFW is in the middle of a residential community.

Oh my Connie! What a sad turn of events for a charity event.  Prayers for all involved. I hope that the innocent are not caught in the middle of this.

Oh Connie how aweful. I agree with Ana.I'm sending prayers to families that need them. It's been a very long day. I worked a split shift but I feel I'm tired tonight. My client, Mrs Bliss, has a nasty cold and is having a hard time. I'm hoping she'll feel better in the morning as I have the early shift tomorrow. Saying good night. Have a quiet night all. Midgie

Yankee, you got lost on us.  I did not know they earthquakes today. They aren't common there are they? I don't think my kids would want the wrath of me if they took the TV out of the box and set it up. L4L, enjoy the quiet. Midgie, I am sorry your client is not feeling well. I hope you don't catch it. I have been getting caught up on a stack of reading. I am down to the last thing.
