    Cami - I think maybe you just brushed my shoulder, but I didn't fall!!  LOL!!  I'm pretty stable these days, at least most of the time!  However I have been known to have a weak ankle that will just throw me to the ground whenever it has a mind to! 

    And I don't have scrolling, but I do have a new something that says "Breaking News", but it's been the same news for the last 3 days!

    Annie Mae is up walking around, bumping into things but learning how to navigate. I think before eye surgery she saw light so it's very dark for her now. Anyway, she wanted to say hi to all of you and wish you all a good day.

    AWW!!!  Little Annie Mae!!!  Isn't it wonderful how animals can adapt??  She looks like such a sweetie!  I had a 5 pound poodle for 13 years, before he died, he was totally blind!  When we would move furniture around, it was pitiful, but we couldn't help but laugh at him, but I was amazed at how well he would figure it out!  It was almost like he knew when we did it and he would move around with extra caution until he figured things out!  Once, we were doing some remodeling, and my DH forgot that he was blind and let him out on the porch forgetting that he had moved the steps, and kerplunk he went right to the ground as he knew exactly where those steps were supposed to be, fortunately our porch was only a couple steps off the ground so he just got right up and proceeded to do his business, and when he was ready to come back inside, he stood where the steps should have been and just barked!  He was very smart like I'm sure your Annie Mae is!

    Thanks Nettie for your story about your 5lb poodle. Dogs really are so amazing, ok cats are amazing too for all the cat lovers out there :))

    Smaarty, wow, such creative watermelon pictures. I like the owl and turtle.

    Oh Paw I look at Annie Mae and just want to squeeze her--she's so adorable--and yes our furbabies adapt better than humans to situations that they have. And we love them. We have a dog and cat. Oh my phone.

    Oh man....!  Cammi!  Another tomato warning here!  Started to hail, but don't know if we will get the damage they did in other parts of town yesterday...  I moved all my big pots of flowers under the picnic table.

    DD came over, and we watched another Shirley Temple movie....  It's always magical when she comes over....  Just so easy to be around, and we laugh, and just have fun together...   She brought over Mexican food...  So we have enough for dinner tonight also...

    I think I'll just shut off the computer.... too much lightening around....

  • we are having storms on east coast too. Hope teka is ok. Tornado near Albany. Not sure how close she is.

    Weather is crazy lately.

    All right I need stronger glasses, I know---I just everyone to be safe including the tomatoes--I always enjoy the rain but not like these storms. And the noise on the TV for warning scares the chit outta me and then they always use Military time so I hve to always subtract 12 and then it's like oh oh this is about time.

    Susan I revised the topic box ,  this is what it says now, and I corrected the are/our." Holding each other with love. Close your eyes and feel our arms. We breathe as one.". Everytime you get blue, this is what I want you to think- onebreathinChevy. Out.  twobreathincami. OUT. . ..threebreathin..........>>>>>>    :)

    444 per-usual you have it covered. Now will you try and NOT get on that hammock.  How notorious are they for going right, when you want to go left. I'll bring over my electric bed, the extra vibrator, and the foot massager.

    oh oh, I'd like an extra vibrator!! Oh never mind.

    I decided to go to the Bay Area today instead of tomorrow. This is my friends back porch. I don't know what kind of flowers these are, but they're beautiful. She doesn't remember. Maybe Teka knows, she seems to be knowledgable about plants. And yes that's the backside of a mermaid!  Also, no tomatoes here, we're having gentle breezes and it's 75.

    You guys be careful out there, duck and cover! Do you do that out there?

    Smaarty, The vine could be Clematis. For tornadoes, you get under something or go into your basement if you have one. They usually come from the SW. I grew up close to Oklahoma City and I think there were only about 2 basements in town (in churches). I remember them telling us in 2nd grade to even lay down next to the curb if we were walking home. Of course, these were the same people who told us to duck and cover for the atomic bomb. I was at the senior center yesterday and we talked about earthquakes. I had a sudden funny vision of all us old people crawling under a table and needing help to get back up.

    The porch is lovely...but I don't know about the flowers either.

    Tomorrow's appt with the PS can't get here soon enough. I'm in pain tonight pretty darn bad. I woke up feeling better this morning than I have in 2 weeks. I thought maybe the antibiotics they put me on were working. But the pain is back in full force! I need more pain meds....this is so bad, but I went thru almost 60 hydro in 10 days. They're gonna think I have a pill problem...crap maybe I do! I've been taking them every 4 hours.

    *sigh* I can't tell you how angry I am about this left chestwall thing. This was NOT my cancer side and I decided to have MX anyway on this side. Now look at what has happened to me.

    tang,,I hope you get some answers from your docs and some pain relief.

    I too wish my appt goes well. My liver feels like it has heartburn in it 24/7 for the last 2 weeks. Hoping its chemo effects and not mr Waldo trying to hide somewhere else.

    I will be thinking about you, hope and hug to you. Praying for a plan for you on the right direction.

    cute pic Smaarty...

    Susan, you have talent, that bunny sweater is adorable...so it the sweet baby

    Tang & Susan.....sorry you are both in pain tonight...yikes, Sending hugs, & hoping your Dr. will perform some magic....

    Tang, they might need to give you something else.

    Oh I hate to her about pain, I hope the Drs. can relieve it somehow and maybe give u something better to help u. And hoping all app't go well to and u can come home and get comfy and feel better.

    Susan the baby is adorable and what a beautiful bunny sweater, u are talented.

    Wrenn I remember those atomic bomb drill, like hiding under the table as a kid and putting u'r head down would REALLY make a difference with an atomic bomb. They might as well take a machine gun and just shoot us It would have been kinder.

    OK my meds have been taken hope they kick in soon now. Nite.

    I'm sad so many are in pain too. I know we all joke around but we seriously care about each other and wish there was something those doctors would do to ease the pain, quickly.....

    Nettie, I'm waiting to see those cat pictures. Susan what a cute baby and beautiful outfit you made.

    Playing ketchup. 

    Chevy, hole-ee crap! Can't believe the weather some of the country is having! Hoping you're all safe!

    Nettie, love the Maxine Depends cartoon! So true!

    Susan, feeling any better today? Hoping it's been better today, even better tomorrow. Pretty baby sweater, you do great work! Hoping the baby doesn't grow out of it too fast.

    Pawprint, Annie Mae is looking better, sounds like she's feeling better. Hoping you're getting some sleep yourself. Hoping you have quiet weekend plans.

    Smaarty, watermelon art is so cool! Betting you could whip those out in no time.

    4444 Sew, how'd the catering go? Now rest up!

    Tang, sending you extra hugs and love! Just because I can!

    To Cami, Saasy-pants, Blessings, Jwoo and everyone else I missed: sending hugs your way.

    hoping tomorrow goes better than today:

    - still fighting insurance, now they have me locked out online too

    - on my way to my 2nd interview this week, got stopped for the first time, first driving ticket ever! Asked for a warning, but couldn't (said he had already called it in) but made it the lowest amount possible. Cop was nice, told me I could fight it but told him he was doing his job, I was the one in the wrong. Who knows about the interview, been told I'm over-qualified so many times. 

    - long parking lot freeway drive home so for the first time ever, I picked up a roasted chicken and salads. All DH did was complain. Really? At least there was dinner made! Sheesh!
