    Good morning;
    Irene-good luck at the dentist.
    I have to buy some more NS gift cards. Do you know how long the sale is for?
    Hi Vix
    Hi Roger
    I found a dime yesterday.
    I went to a Yoga class last evening. I was about 20 minutes into it and started to feel sick.
    I had to leave and barely made it home before I was sick to my stomach. After that I couldn't get warm. I think I picked up a bug. I feel a little better today, but decided to stay home from work.
    Have a great day! :)

    good morning, Roger it is an offer on Numi .got another offer this morning at 60% you might want to go on and check it out, I have too much food to take it. There was a controlled fire yesterday and it really is smoking now. Hi vix and jo. Today I have a dentist appt it is for a cleaning I go every 6 months take care everyone
    Hello Irene
    I keep forgetting to check Numi :(
    60% off is an awesome deal and then if You use the gift cards too there is no way to eat cheaper unless You use Rice and Dried beans :smiley:

    I hope the smoke is not bothering You. A controlled burn can save a lot later if there is a fire. The California Wildfires would not have been nearly as destructive if they had not prevented controlled burns and clearing of the underbrush from what I have read.

    If the sale ends on the 7th I better get busy buying. I suspect that there will be fewer sales later this year if they follow past performances.

    Thank You for the heads Up

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and one cent was found. The Temperature out the door was 44 degrees. There is a mild breeze, a lot less than Yesterday.
    Rain is in the forecast for possibly this morning followed by a break and heavier rain this afternoon.

    Hello Joanne
    When I combine the On Sale Gift Cards with the 20% discount the price becomes pretty affordable, Add in the Frozen Vegetables from CostCo and some inexpensive protein and fruit from CostCo and Voila, I decent price for the days food.

    There is a school district closed here in NJ due to a stomach bug that is going around, Maybe You caught something like that.

    Congratulations on Your 10 cent find
    Roger

    BTW Congratulations on this

    Hello Vix
    I am guessing that part of the came that was ordered is the actual thickness of the glass they take ?

    The Russian thing is weird as is that You can evidently buy it here even now on Amazon :(

    I guess the question is will the extinct animals recovered that way be the real thing or a look alike ?

    Have a Nice Day

    Good morning all.
    Overcast with a high of 51 today, rain expected later. No plans yet.
    Roger, the size of the came is not only chosen for the thickness of the glass, but the size of the piece. You can use much thinner came for suncatchers than you can for a larger work. It helps hold the piece together over time, and gives you a sturdier frame to hang it from.
    I know California does controlled burns...maybe they couldn't keep up with all the crazy weather and emergencies. It sounded like the recovered extinct animals would be mostly hybrids...so not the originals.
    Jo, hope you're feeling better...it does sound like a bug.
    Irene, the pinelands are nice. Hope you don't get too much smoke from the burn...it's not good for the lungs.
    Happy Friday, everyone. :)

    I already did it, the it being posted more humor, Enjoy

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and no cents were found. The Temperature out the door was 41 degrees, OTOH the time & temperature display I passed showed 38 degrees. Either way it felt a lot less cold than Yesterday.

    The rain from yesterday was gone when I went out the door, I did get dripped on from trees I walked under so I am guessing it had not ended all the much earlier.

    Hi Vix
    I thought I had read that California did not clear the areas that burned recently, I could be way wrong too.

    That makes sense that the size also affects the came and is something that had not occurred to me, Thank You for the explanation. Suncatchers, I sort of wonder when they became popular, My remembrance of them is that they are based on something the Southwestern American Indians Made ?

    That was my take on it that they might look the same but would not be a exact match for the extinct species.

    I think the closest I ever came to the Pinelands was driving south on the Garden State Parkway :wink:

    I hope the smoke at least stays outside of Irene's house.

    Have a Nice Day
    Roger

    Hi all.
    Went to one of the flower shops with my future daughter-in-law and my daughter who will be the matron of honor. It was fun. The florist was very nice and they will send a proposal. We have an appt with the other florist for Friday afternoon. The bride's mother will also come to that appt. Looking forward to it. :)
    Went on the eliptical and did some PT exercises at home this a.m. The weather was beautiful here today.
    Happy Saturday, everyone. Happy Weekend!

    Hello Irene
    That is good news, I find it irritating when smoke from someones fireplace leaks into the house, I can not imagine how much worse smoke from a blaze would be.

    As You say tasty and good quality, I will admit that despite their being advertised on the TV that when I bought a bag of Halo brand tangerines that they are actually a really good product that tastes good and last a long time in the refrigerator when compared to the other brands I have bought.

    I have looked out the window and looked at the lawn and decided not yet on raking and general cleanup of the yard. Is that my procrastination or a realistic judgement call ? I do not know.

    Good Luck with Your cleaning up.
    Roger

    Hello Vix
    How nice, Choosing the right flowers can crucial as well as fun IMO.

    More good weather today than back to rain for Monday and a possibility for a couple of days later in the week. They will be fine tuning the forecast as we get closer to those.One network channel does a ten day forecast, that seem to be a little long to me.

    Hopefully the Exercises are helping

    good morning, well we really didn't do much yard work I did get to plant some of my Easter plants the little leaves we have in our yard are still wet. George did open the pool but didn't put the heater on yet need to shock it a couple of times first it is just too cold for me yet even with the heater on. Tomorrow it is suppose to be 80 we will see. WE had a nice walk and then went out for breakfast . I did loose a pound last week so I am feeling pretty good I started to drink my proteine shakes again it really gives me so much energy. Jo the flower shopping sounds fun. Jo I hope you are feeling better. Hey roger a little rain is ok . Hope everyone has a great Sunday

    Nice out so far today. It's cloudy and 65 with a high of 70 expected. Went out on the deck and saw a little chipmunk in the yard. Cute.
    No special plans for today, need to buy some cards.

    Irene-thanks for the heads up on the Costco cards.
    I hit a curb yesterday and blew out my right front tire. I called AAA and they came and changed it in record time. I am going to get a new tire tomorrow.
    Vix-How fun shopping for flowers.
    Roger-I am not ready to do yard work yet either.
    Have a good evening. :)
