Jeri I think Ed deserves a hug from all of us for being so kind and thoughtful. And another from us to you and your sister. It's wonderful that you can be with her. It will make a difference.
Lin, hope you've had a great day, you deserve it. Just imagine a year from now, you'll probably be bored. Lol! Not likely!
Jackie, our independence day is tomorrow. We don't really celebrate our freedom From anything, just being free. It occurred to me that the original independence day was a celebration of being free from England's rule. Ha! I wanna go home! Lol. I'm ready for national healthcare
Been dealing with insurance company, not pretty, not a bit. I asked Jim if he was ready to return to long haul(what we do as a team). He asked me if I was bored at home I said, NO! Then he talks about next week like he will still be on his own.
We finally got rain! It came as heavy thunderstorms, but it soaked in. People couldn't believe we've had no rain at our house in about two weeks. The ground was like concrete!
Marie, did you find gluten free buns? Maybe you could call the stores.
Sandy, so glad you are visiting your kids. Have a fun trip, and maybe you'll see sunshine while you're there. I'm falling asleep again, more later

Happy Friday!!
Lots of people are off today due to the 4th falling on a Saturday. I hope the pool won't be too crowded when Lisa and Robby come. She said he woke up late so he will probably take a later nap so it sounds like we will be going to pool later this afternoon. That is fine with me as I am washing clothes and going to start packing. This vacation will be more quiet than with my daughter, for one they do not have a pool and two they are more conservative than my daughter and her friends. I think we will be doing a lot of board games, mostly scrabble which I never win. I am going to try to hit some tennis balls with my son, my shoulder doesn't hurt at all since the shot, makes me wonder if I should cancel therapy. This will also be a test for my new knees.
Not starting out on this vacation with a good weight, I gained 2.5 pounds this week but I am hoping it is a salt gain and will be gone tomorrow. I have just been too lazy to ride my bike so it is my own fault. I sure do miss those walks with Robby, not a fan of walking by myself.
Have a great day.
Sandy

Phoebe. My Walmart carry the gluten free hambuger buns and so do a small health food store close to us so I will not have any problems with finding them.my corn tortilla is gluten free, so if the chili turns out ok I will be able to make me some homemade Mexican foo..

Good evening. Some Internet problems today and a laptop issue too. So where do we find this plant food topic??
Lin0 -
Lin my computer is down and I don' know how to copy and post on this I. Pad to send a link to you
But you should be able to search Plant food topic. . I think that is how I worded it if not I will send you a PM for the correct name.
Seems like you and I have more computer problems. I know. Or think I know I push the PC back and think I pulled a conectionout for pulled a wire out of plac. Get back with you real soon

Oh duh, I thought I was looking for a thread outside of this group and I could not find it. Got it now---it is a new thread but within our group.

Nite.

Bon voyage

Jeri - I am so sorry I missed your birthday yesterday. I can't get anything to paste here so just wishing you happy days. God bless you as you travel next week to be with your sister.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JERI. I seem to have lost our birthday reference list on the Sneaker page, and I'm sorry I missed yesterday. Like LIN, best wishes for next week.
I haven't got a clue on how to paste the graphics, or even where to find them! And it's so nice to view these new age "birthday cards" etc. from everybody. Hints most welcome.
I've decided to join our USA friends in celebrating Independence Day by just doing all the things I like to do best. That is, virtually NO housework, definitely NO weeding etc. but sitting reading my newest novel out in the garden, sipping my coffee etc. etc. Of course I did that on Canada Day and St George's Day as well, (any excuse) and there won't be any fireworks here, but Tabs and I can live happily without THEM! I'll even make the burger patties JACKIE, and dig out my "sort of Stetson" for sun shade. Heavens, I'm really getting excited about today. I won't be able to change my accent though, it appears to be a permanent feature! So I'll keep the mouth shut instead and wish EVERYBODY:
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO Y'ALL.

Thank you Jacke, Lin and Anne. I had a good birthday. Our dd and her two boys came in to visit and we went out for supper with a good friend. It was a good day. Today my aunt and my cousin's daughter come for two nights. Tomorrow we are going to see Charlie Pride. My aunt is a big fan and she bought us tickets. That should be fun.
The Annual Calgary Stampede (a huge rodeo) started yesterday. Generally 10 days of lots of fun. Too bad we are leaving on Monday. Generally we go to lots of Stampede Breakfasts (I bring my own pancakes) and go down to the grounds to wonder around, see all the exhibits and maybe take in some rodeo events. People dress western and it is lots of fun. We like to watch the chuck wagon races every night on TV. Stuff goes on all week around town.
But I have to go. Got to get ready for company and get ready for our trip.
See y'all later. Hee Haw

Happy belated birthday Jeri! I always love everyone else's birthday but hate mine. I don't like to add on to my birthday number. BUT I love that b'day cake. Travel safely and I know you will be a comfort to your sister right now.
John put up the flag and I will make a picnic lunch for us. I will have watermelon and those bean burgers we are all talking about. I watched James Cagney in "yankee Doodle Dandy" last night. What fun! I'll be humming James Cohan songs all weekend. The neighbors will be shooting off fireworks all weekend so that will stress the dear old doggies. All of us will enjoy the day in one way or another. The truth is that children love fireworks. Actually John would be shooting fireworks if the doggies weren't so afraid of them.
I remember as a youngster running madly around with sparklers, yelling and screaming in delight with my cousins on July 4th. I lived out on a ranch near Ranger, Texas. I will not be doing that but I will try to email or call some of my cousins. The actual reason for the celebration seems irrelevant now. We are celebrating Liberty in general! Enjoy the day!

Quickie from me again. First batch of bean burgers I made, great. This batch sloppy. I've had to add flour to bind. Just so y'all know! Anne.0

Can you cook the bean burgers on a grill?
Happy belated birthday Jeri. I must get into the habit of checking the birthday list.
Raining here. We needed it. I'm sure lots of kids are disappointed.
Sandy, safe travels.
Lots of fireworks last night. I didn't go outside to look for them. I crashed by 10:30PM.
Anne, go to www.glitter-graphics.com . when you find what you like, scroll down, click on the box that says To post etc etc ,use this BB Code. Like this,

I ended up frying the burgers like "bubble and squeak". Very tasty, though not exactly burgers PHOEBE! I used different beans this time. Maybe add the mashed beans slowly until you get the right consistency? Duh, that would work Annie, rather than dumping everything into the mixing bowl. Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a go.0
