Sandy I have you and Babe in my thoughts and prayers. Thinking of you at this time.

Back to whether I liked my name...Never knew of another Diane in elementary school though there were a few further up in the grades being a version of Diana, Dianne or Diane. To this day I am rarely spelled Diane by anyone unless you know me. Everyone seems to think it is another variation. My Dad named me after an old…

I have spent some time watching tv and looking on my tablet of all of the flooding that has been happening in this state. Just leaving out of our community we saw two large trees down at 7:30 am. The rain did stop here for the day in our immediate area, but going further south in the state there is still heavy rain and so…

Good evening friends, Lin....Before I forget I must tell you I love that tea pot above, but then again anything with grapes on it appeals to me. I have a soup tureen that is white with grapes on it. Never used, but found it at a garage sale and I had to have it to go on top of my kitchen cabinets. Jackie....I am hoping…

Happy New Years everyone !! Well our New Years Eve brought us a rain storm with torrential rains as well as very strong winds giving us the most unusual weather that doesn't happen to us. 9 inches of rain about 40 minutes away, plus 36 inches of snow up in the mountains at Lake Tahoe. Plus a 5.4 earthquake a couple of…

Wishing you all a belated Christmas ! Inspite of the various weather problems for several of you I am glad you were able to make the best of the day. Just being with each other is what we all really enjoy doing after all. Sandy.....Sorry to hear about your 911 visit back to the ER with Babe. Hopefully they will finally get…

Hello everyone, Sorry it has taken so long to get back to everyone, but it is that busy time of year for me too. We struggled to put the tree up earlier in the week, but had problems with light strings not going on. After 3 hrs and getting nowhere we headed to bed. Seems it is the best time to think and my husband recalled…

Good Morning! Bright and sunny day until the rain is due here on Thursday. Struggle with trying to stay warm with morning temps in the 36-42 range. Heat to 73 then the layers go on. Sure miss our fireplace from our last house ..... Sandy...Glad you are on the mend after your medical test. When they did mine the first time…

This day has disappeared quickly, but then it is wash day for me, I had a late start because I am wrapped up in a book and almost done with it. Not particularly a topic I would get a book on, but it had so many "Great reads" I decided why not and I am glad I got it. Shall have to look for another book by her again.…

As our chilly evenings are setting in I am again learning how to dress. LOL Toasty feet no problem with some great slippers, but had to pull out my bulky zippered sweatshirt to put on over my top and comfy jeans. Legs cold now, so grab what is near by (my husbands robe) and I am finally warming up. 73 inside with 45…

Good evening everyone.... Finally got caught up on every ones messages. I have gone from one season to the next at least in your worlds. We are on about day 6 with temperatures in the 50s and down to about 36 at night. Our mountains actually got their first snow leaving behind enough for the slopes to open up for the first…

Started my day off with us going for a 40 minute walk thru some of the neighborhood. Now that it has cooled to the mid 70s the plants in every ones garden seem much happier. Even have some pretty roses coming out again. Love this autumn weather. I think the hot summer temps are gone for the season. Yea !! Still trying to…

Enjoyed hearing stories about everyone many years ago. The ac still comes on occasionally, which is set at 76 right now. It is in the high 80s during the day, so I am still in my capris. However that will change to the low 80s this next week. Loving that our evening temps are dropping too, which means I have a good nights…

With the seasons changing for all of you I can see everyone is starting to get ready for the cooler weather. My day begins with opening up all of the screened windows to allow the wonderful fresh air inside. It may only be 65, but cooling it down without having to use the AC is where we are at right now. Once it reaches 80…

Today is another one of those days that just disappears and you don't quite know what you accomplished, but some how I managed to keep busy. Oh yes a trip to two grocery stores. Not very exciting, but I was able to get what I needed and also a cross rib roast for the same price of a chuck roast. A nice change along with a…

Good evening Sneakers.... Another day almost gone and I don't exactly know where the time disappeared. I headed off early this morning to get a much needed haircut again. Finally found a gal that isn't afraid to cut my hair short. I laughed when Jackie said her pink hair dye is sitting in the closet. So is my old hair dye,…

Good evening friends.. Finally got caught up with what has been going on with all of you wonderful sneakers. I was so behind and I felt if I didn't catch up gradually I would miss so much not knowing about what all has gone on with everyone. So pleased to read that basically all is well with everyone and life is chugging…

Too wordy.....sorry

Hi Friends, Time has a way of getting past me and before you know it I have lots to read. Back to that point again. Back to another beautiful spring day. We are anticipating 80 today, but I don't think we will make it. Scattered clouds tend to cool things off a bit, but possible 90s next week. Not ready for that. With the…

Before the evening ends I thought I would say hello to everyone and catch you up on the happenings in our life. We have actually had about 3 days this week with temps in the 78-85 degree range. Brought out the wicker rockers and tables from the garage placing my printed bird cushions where needed. So love this great…

After having had 3 days of 80-82 degree days I feel quite spoiled from this. Spring seems to have sprung with all of the new growth on our shrubs, trees and blossoms forming. I am also noticing lots of bulbs showing their pretty faces. I am thinking just maybe I need to make a trip to the nursery for some pretty flowers to…

Well better late than never. I too got lost in the above page numbers trying to find my way back to here. I would be two pages done, get busy and have to repeat trying to find where I was. However I am back for this update anyway. So much has gone on with everyone. Glad to hear those that have had illnesses are doing a lot…

Hi Sneakers.... Finally caught up on every ones delightful entries. Had a few comments to make, but that was a while back so don't recall what they were now. Such is life as they say. Hopefully everyone has about healed from their latest fall mishaps. It takes a while to bounce back these days. How are you doing now Lin ?…

With all of the discussion of music I need to put my took cents in also. Love most classical, music from the late 50s and 60s and a bit of 70s too. Bobs choices could be found at my house too and his latest reference to Bocelli and Celine an absolute favorite not to forget Josh Grobans music too. With introduction to…

Realizing it was the Canadian Thanksgiving today I needed to get on here to wish my Canadian friends a wonderful day. Remember living up there recalling Thanksgiving in October. That was a surprise to me seeing it was always in November for me. Enjoy the holiday !! Bob you got my taste buds going with your latest meal you…

Well finally got caught up with everything that I have missed. So much has gone on.... Jackie your wallpaper removal reminded me of my days of removing wallpaper. Such a job and usually it meant papering it shortly after. My husband and I made quite a team doing these projects. Loved the end result, but definitely not the…

Well lucky you all got a chance to finally get introduced to our toy poodle Jacque. My intentions have been good, but computers, phones, kindles and I don't always get along. Some photos end up in once place and then not another place; it takes time to find what I am looking for and then to follow the directions, which are…

Spent some time trying to figure it out last night. Turns out what I sent blows up into a picture. Yea !!! Special thanks to Sandy for her help here !!!

Sandy I followed your instructions and this is what appears at my end. Do you see a picture ?

Lost that one....Just found out you can't go back to the previous page. Live and learn. Jackie, What are bangers and mash ? I suppose mash potatoes, but bangers ????? I guess we have a senior dog now. Jacque, our 10 yr old toy poodle, now has heart problems. Between his vet and the cardiologist he is on 5 pills a day.…
