Jackie, sunshine and roses sound great. Anne, cant believe its that hot there Its 95 here in the Central Valley of California. I was enjoying the lounge before noon, but too hot for me outside now. Tomorrow is my 86th Birthday and my family who live near will do something special! Like, when my kids were young, they could…

Anne, thx. Yes, thats it. AI is supposedly going to benefit medical field. That would be a good use. Lin, always busy. When I moved in the middle of Covid, I tried and tried to DONATE bookshelves of hard back books….no one would take them. So I brought most of them. Joy

Actually, in my younger days I had strong feelings, but was never an activist type. So, I turn 87 soon, and cannot see myself taking action now. 😍 Joy Besides, I kinda remember a poem..or prayer, about knowing what you can change and what you cannot!

Well, until we dont have our bubble, Anne. What else can we do 😍 Joy

Oh, Lin, must confess, I am cleaning out my frig, too. After the family was here, we have so much of what I should not eat. Over sodium and fat yesterday. I will clean frig by eating it all up.🙁 Joy

Good Wednesday morning, all. Sandy, sounds like a nice day. I luv the music from Grease. Jackie, always walking…bundled up. Its crazy windy here and not normal weather for us….whatever normal is anymore. Anne, we always sit and discuss the depressing news, especially the AI news. Only thing we can do is live in our own…

Sandy, sounds like a wonderful day for you. My family left late last night. So today will be a joyful day cleaning up and washing beach towels! We had a wonderful weekend..even tho a few could not make it we were 15. I am feeling blessed today. So hello to all my Pals. Have a good week.

Hi Sandy, I am having those tests done in August. Fingers crossed for good results. Lin dear, you are always very busy. Hope your aches and pains are a little better now. My family is arriving for the weekend, so chores today. Joy

Lin, hope the pain settles down. For my arthritis I bought the 8 hour Tylenol and its time released and helps me. Joy

Barbie….wow..good walking. I can barely do 10 minutes… goal is to build up to 30. Joy

Sandy…..two cuties. Glad you are happy with the brace. Im thinking I need one for my knee. Joy

Hi Sandy, I hope your day was calm and peaceful. Oh dear Lin , so sorry to hear you are in such pain. I tried an 8 hour Tylenol that was helpful. I am thinking of you and hope tomorrow is a better day. Barbie, sorry for the change in weather, but you saved the tomato plant 😍 Its going to be 97 here tomorrow. I will have my…

Good morning All. My son just left our place for the weekend as his best friend is getting married at a winery up in the Sierra foothills. He borrowed our car…..so I will be doing a few things around the house. Before he left this morning we sat outside with our morning coffee. I was in shorts at 0700. It was so nice…..I…

Good Morning to All. Happy Wednesday. Its been a busy week as we did a few errands, but mostly worked around the house. Pressure washed the patio and weeding all the flower beds. Lori finally was able to put up the umbrellas, too, as wind subsided. We are officially open for summer. 😎. We pick Mike up from the airport…

Hi all. Just came inside and now its normal Valley weather….not even noon and warm on patio lounge chair. Lin, we bought Mike’s favorites, which means sweets, croissants, etc. he is very disciplined while at home, so trips to Cali are time to spoil hm. Of course, I will be eating all that stuff too! Plus I picked up potato…

Good morning all my Pals….Im just out of shower and air drying my hair so wanted to wish everyone a nice day. Lin…great tea set. Glad its all quiet there. Always a good thing. Sandy, I am sorry about your back. I am happy to report mine is finally better. Its always best to get the diagnosis but I hate mentioning anything…

Lin. No ads, promos, during the programming. I just cancelled PBS thru Amazon, and I started Brit Box. I look at the programs to determine what i want to watch and add it. The charge goes on my card held on Amazon. I can look under subscriptions to see when it renews and cancel if I choose, its easy and clear to us senior…

Patsy…luv you library seed exchange. Never heard of it before. My daughter Lori spent all weekend, trimming and weeding the garden beds. Everything looks so nice. Joy

Lin, sorry about your vac problem. My son had a robot vac when I lived with him and I think….if remembering correctly, that it worked on carpet, tile, and hardwood. He had a three story house in Georgia with different flooring😲 As for the additional pics……just a little at a time they say. Whoever they are. Oh todays teapot…

Hello all my Pals. Sunday morning and all I have done is walk on the treadmill because it doesnt hurt my back and sit here reading since 6:30 am with my heating pad. Lin…going over cards, ltrs, photos is so hard. Looking at all and the memories they invoke. I cleaned out and tossed alot already, but have more to go thru.…

Hi Anne, thx for the suggestions. I did my Pt stretches today and I did treadmill on low for 15. But mostly I am. Sitting here reading with a hot pad on my lower back. I broke my T6 earlier this year and I did nothing but rest as it healed and I have no pain at all in that area of my back. So for the rest of today I am…

Sounds like a nice day, Sandy. As I said earlier, I did the shopping two days and we had tons of fun, but skipped yesterday to use heat pad and exercise. It almost feels like my lower back pain is getting worse. I plan to walk the treadmill and do my lower back stretches diligently. My therapist will be proud of me 😲 I…

Lin….oh gosh golly gee…..all those remotes. They make it so complicated. Glad you got the new modem. Hulu seems to have good programming plus regular network shows (going by the ads)…..Lori pays so much for her Cable service but it has all the channels she watches….Science, NatGeo, History, plus all that I watch too. So…

Jackie, I never walk outside….treadmill only, and I love picturing you outdoors getting all those steps in. Lin, not time for the cable guy! You reminded that I have Paramount Plus….tho I fear I signed up accidentally. My girls are always cautioning me about signing up and buying off the internet…but to no avail. I will…

A good Wednesday morning to all. And Wowee to you 1978 Sandy! Lin…PT is coming along ok…too slowly because I am still in so much discomfort with my lower back. Its a little cool this week, bur I am certain you will hear me whine about it being too hot soon. 😲 Sorry about those pricey plumbers….they wont even come out…

Good morning Pals. Happy Tuesday. Its a busy week here. PT for Charlie. PT at a different place for me. Chores. Did laundry yesterday. Its turned cool and windy with possible rain so wont be outside exercising. Lin so sorry for your disaster and hope plumber fixes things quickly. Anne, Enjoy those scones. I am about to…

Lin, yes, take care of your eyes. Is good to take a break from screens. Joy

Hello Patsy, I am glad your son is looking at houses and slips for his boat. But, it is especially good to read your update on your dear John. Like they say, A day at a time. Thanks for taking the time to post. Joy

Good morning to all! Just a short note to say hi and I luv reading all the posts as it seems you have all been friends for a long time. I also kept in touch with my ex family and most especially my MIL. She remained close to us til she died. That was very important to me since my parents died when I was 10. Well Friday was…

Anne, yes, only diff is I was born and raised in San Francisco…..mild weather. Never did like trips to the snow, etc. but, yes, my old bones ached all thru our rather mild winter. So glad your seedlings are surviving. Joy
