So far its been 'read only' kinda morning. Fixed breakfast yesterday...and had preplanned leftovers, heated them in the Micro...Text messages, (lotsa s'es) from our former gym manager, meeting her Saturday morning to see the baby who at 4 months is adorable!!!! So we're attempting coffee.
I think I also heard rumbles yesterday...I should go look...a tad over 2.5 was there yesterday from Sunday nights storms....ok, so at my house yesterday evening was 'only' ¾ of an inch. But with the other rains, I have to empty the gauge today, as another inch, and it will spill over!
So, Ed when do you get to bring new baby home? I know you're anxious.......
Roger, is there any way that you can prop up those berry bushes? And check the internet, you can train the canes so they're not fruiting at ground level.
I just got the strangest phone call, and left a message....from some guy Stephen Barrett from Alabama, small wide spot in the road...a little larger than the cartoon...6 people and a cat!....there were not words...just loud racket...I finally got tired of listening and deleted...sounds like a kid prank, and isn't it about time for school to start again???
LOL I lived in Richmond VA for a year, and when school started, I began getting phone calls from some giggly kids who'd obviously just had their 1st. Spanish class and were trying it out! They called several times that fall...we had some interesting chats!!! Funny kids!
Ok, gotta go for now,
Later...

Howdy y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday!
We're scheduled to pick Kiara up between 11:00 and 12:00 today. I hope she and Lilo like each other or at least tolerate each other.

Hi
I did some walking , The temperature this morning was 77 on the news channel and 75 degrees on the front porch. Warmer than yesterday
The humidity is up in what they are calling Tropical once again
Here is what I was watching Yesterday during Lunch and Dinner. One on YouTube and the other from Dailymotion. Both serve up videos and are IMO safe to use.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/'Allo_'Allo
'Allo 'Allo! is a BBC television British sitcom that was first broadcast on BBC One from 1982 to 1992, comprising 85 episodes. The story is set in a small-town café in German-occupied France during the Second World War. It is a parody of another BBC programme, the wartime drama Secret Army. 'Allo, 'Allo! was created by David Croft, who also wrote the theme music, and Jeremy Lloyd. Lloyd and Croft wrote the first six series. The remaining series were written by Lloyd and Paul Adam.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-de-Hi!
Hi-de-Hi! was a BBC television sitcom shown on BBC1 from 1 January 1980 to 30 January 1988.
Set between 1959 and the early 1960s in Maplins, a fictional holiday camp, the show was written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft, who also wrote Dad's Army and It Ain't Half Hot Mum amongst other programmes. The title was the greeting the campers heard and in early episodes was written Hi de Hi. The series revolved around the lives of the camp's management and entertainers, most of them struggling actors or has-beens.
The inspiration was the experience of Jimmy Perry, one of the writers. After being demobilised from the Army, he was a Redcoat at Butlins, Pwllheli during the holiday season.
The series gained large audiences and won a BAFTA as Best Comedy Series in 1984. In a 2008 poll on Channel 4, Hi-de-Hi! was voted the 35th most popular comedy

That is the plan, We do want to get them off of the Patio.
I wonder if that call was a call pocket dialed. It doesn't happen with flip phones, however it can happen with Smart PhonesI just got the strangest phone call, and left a message....from some guy Stephen Barrett from Alabama, small wide spot in the road...a little larger than the cartoon...6 people and a cat!....there were not words...just loud racket...I finally got tired of listening and deleted...sounds like a kid prank, and isn't it about time for school to start again???

Police: Woman 'butt dialed' 911, discussed 'illegal activities'
By Ben Hooper Contact the Author | Aug. 16, 2016 at 2:48 PM
BREMERTON, Wash., Aug. 16 (UPI) -- Police in Washington state said a woman "learned that butt dialing can be more than just embarrassing" when a 911 operator heard about her "illegal activities."
Bremerton Police Chief Steven Stachan said in his weekly newsletter that a woman apparently accidentally dialed 911 from her pocket and operators heard the "very angry sounding" suspect talking to a man believed to be her boyfriend.
The woman was heard discussing "scratch tickets and illegal activities," leading officers to visit the address on Cherry Ave. where the call originated.
"When officers got to the area, she could be heard saying that she 'saw the police' and would 'not be going to jail.' She was seemingly clairvoyant, but that prediction was wrong," Stachan wrote.

POCKET DIALING
February 24, 2016, 1 year ago By Josh McFadden
It’s embarrassing, but we’ve all done it before: made an accidental phone call to an unintended recipient.
Usually, this mishap occurs when our phone is in our back pocket and we sit down. Next thing we know, we’ve inadvertently dialed up one of our contacts or perhaps even a stranger. Sometimes we’re even unaware the connection has been made, and someone on the other end is saying “hello, hello,” with no response.
This is a phenomenon known as “butt dialing,” or “pocket dialing.”
Cheers

so excited about picking up Kiara!!! (and its not even my cat!??!?!?!? LOL!
Shopping list is long...SS pay day at my house. Time to stock up.

Oh, Roger you don't need a 'smart phone' to butt dial. My old cell did it, and I've done it with my iPhone as well. And it could have been a butt dial. As it was way too easy to look up the phone number and get name, etc. The crap calls are not that easy to trace. . I hadn't thought about a butt dial though. Good call. 0 -
