hi ziggy

Nettie, hope you r feeling better...how is the pain today ?

4444, how is your fin doing

Blessings, happy you are happy and at peace with your decision...very cool...have fun !!

Sorry Chevy, spam is disgusting....but I do LOVE corned beef hash

Blessings...oh boy..what those firefighters go through..one was on training during the walk. Walked in full gear for two days. I don't know how they do it. I would have expired from dehydration. We forget how dedicated they are and what they have to go through .  And you in the womens auxiliary , how cool was that!!!! Had to be great times and great memories. 

Hi 2nd, hi spookier hi cami, hi teka, and dutchris, and holeinone one, and everyone else I can't remember the names..lol. I can see the avatars in my head but not the names..ha ha

The wedding pics are beautiful .....those are fun fun times !!

Have a great day everyone

Susan, I'm amazed that you can do that! You're amazing. Those owls would make a pretty quilt. I'm saving the pic. Who knows, maybe I'll even make it someday.

Like spam, hate hash. 

Hey sew4444, how is you?

Everyone else, have a good morning/afternoon.

Susan, that is AWESOME!!!  What a great accomplishment!  My mouse pad occasionally goes haywire and scrolls really fast and the first time the photo scrolled by fast and I thought your water bottle was a penis balloon. LOL!  Why the thought occurred to me that someone would have a weener balloon is beyond me.  Great looking family all of you!

My daughter and I are like oil and water. We used to be very close. She inherited my love of birds and nature. But that's about the only thing we have in common anymore. She is a college student now but lives in her room when she's not in class. Refuses to help out around the house or take care of her room. She's driving both hubby and I crazy. (He calls her the tenant that doesn't pay.)  It's really stressful because I could use the extra help now. But she continues to pull away. I imagine it's her coping mechanism to distance herself. It makes me really sad though.

Chevy, I need the spam casserole recipe. We love spam around here. Mostly with eggs in the morning.

Cute owl pics!

FBB.....yessssss the bc walk is all about penises....lol.  That was toooo funny 

My DSiL just arrived back with a coffee for me. DD has gone to have her hair cut. DD and I have has a few words because she has always since a little one loaded guilt on me and has done so since I arrived. Despite this we are close and I feel her frustrations about not being able to get a job here in Canada. 

Have hay fever which didn't help sleeping also RA playing up so I  not a bundle  of joy today. Hope I feel better tomorrow as we are starting to move things. DGD and I have been playing on the computers  

I caught up on reading posts in the middle  of the night. It was strange reading in the middle of the night instead of during the day. 

Well owlettes the coffee has revived me. 

Hihs

SAS where are you???  Does anyone here have a way to try to get ahold of her besides using these boards?  Maybe it was on a different forum but I thought some people had ways to get ahold of members through email,  FB, or phone..  Just wondering if anyone has tried to get ahold of her or if anyone knows if maybe she just needed to take some time off..  I checked and she hasn't posted since May 25.  

Hi guys!  So hot here!  Can't even work outdoors..... only early in the mornings.....

I had DH go over in the ditch, and get this tree limb that was in a pile of branches.  I wanted to decorate a "tree" for my garden....  Either put it in the ground, or PLANT it in a pot, with lots of heavy little rocks and marbles...   So I put it in a pot, then this Winter, I can move it in the garage.  I hung clear tear-drop crystals, some while silk carnations, and these other brown-bronze glittle flowers....  And I draped that hanging moss (plastic) over the little branches... 

It really looks nice.... so I put it out front on one corner of our house!   

I talked to Sassy, and she says she is doing fine, and she needed a break....  So that's all I know.... 

I had my Daughter get her phone number from MY computer, in my "address book"  so I could let someone know I broke my stupid hip!     And I called Cammi too, and drove her nuts....   I tried to get my DD#2 to log in to BC.ORG from her Iphone, but neither one of us could DO it!   So I was "lost and floundering".... L&F in other words!  

Chevy, glad you talked to sas, maybe we can relax a bit and not worry about her so much.

Just for those wondering, I had a rough weekend, Migraines!  Went to chiro today, had a pretty good visit, he found some spots that he worked on and said I would feel better!!  However, I came home and had to mow our lawn and while trying to get off the mower to move something, caught my flip flop and took a pretty good tumble!!  so, now my arm, leg, back and neck are not feeling to good!!  but at least I know why for now!!  I'm off to bed to see if I can find a comfortable enough position so I can get some sleep!  Maybe I'll catch up tomorrow!

not only am I pages behind but when I start reading, there's a big skip. So I've probably missed a bunch.

Chevy, beautiful table you set. Sorry I missed the fun.

Ziggy, thanks so much for your explanation. Have no idea if that's the case, but maybe there's hope for DD yet. 

Susan, you are such an amazing woman! You have every right to be proud! Obnoxious? NO! This was an occasion to celebrate and you did it up right! Looking the colorful owls.

Smaarty, the owls are so cute!

GardenGumby, that looks so relaxing and peaceful  

Glad to hear SAS is ok. 

For everyone missed, hope the start to your week and month is going well.

For all: thanks for all your love and support! Difficult weekend, but got to have a relaxing spa day with my friends yesterday and a wonderful lunch with some BCO ladies today. Will try to post a picture (the only one I have seen so far - a not so flattering pose. 

Oh Nettie, I'm so sorry you did a face plant!  Yikes!  Gets to be sort of routine after awhile... It will all hurt worse about the 2nd day....  Just take some Aleve, and try and stay out of that prone position!  At least you could get UP! 

Yes GG, that DOES look beautiful!  I haven't seen that much water since our last trip to Orlando! 

Teka I LOVE those nails!  Did you get them done at a Salon?  Or did you do them yourself? 

Nettie, sorry about your tumble. Hope you finally got some sleep and r feeling better. Promise us no flip flops ....ok?

Great nails teka !

Happy Tuesday 

2nd..spa done..fun..and well deserved:)

Garden...lovely picture..I am at so much peace on the water...sounds like it was for you too

Hello to everyone else

Hey gals.... If you just click Sassies name, you will see where she posted and where she said she is taking a break....

But I think if you look back about 10-20 pages on here, you will see a lot more gals that used to post on this thread, and they just move on.......  or post on other threads.... 

Or maybe they can sleep now..... Ha!

Good morning everyone, just wanted to jump in, so I kinda sorta skimmed thru the posts here. I'm so sorry Nettie that you fell off your mower...ouch. I'm glad SAS is okay and just taking a break. And Chevy, how did I miss it about you breaking your hip? I saw you had your daughter go to your computer address book to get SAS phone number so you can tell someone you broke your 'stupid' hip. I hope you are resting. Thanks for the beautiful birds Susan, I will hug someone today. I hope everyone has a nice day today. 

Well, thanks everyone for the well wishes!  I didn't sleep at all last night, but I'm up and at it today, got a busy day at work!  I'm thinking I'll probably be more sore tomorrow, but maybe not!  I don't fall often, but when I do, I usually do a good job!  Still don't know how the heck I did it, just felt like the flip flop got caught on something, not real sure!  Anyway, no one saw, I got up and got back on like a big girl!!   Since I didn't sleep last night, I actually spent some time in the pool, then when I got a little chill I went in and continued to soak in the tub!  I've heard the alternating cold and heat can help, so maybe I waved off some of the soreness!

Sorry, I'm self absorbed again, not much time to keep up on commenting on everything, but I did read!

Sorry for those feeling yucky and yay for those moving forward!  Loved the nails, but I would never be brave enough to wear them!
