Been busy. BK asked me to work Wed. since the asst. mgr. Is sick. Mo – I did make the whoopie pies. Quite good. Thanks for the recipe Margaret – beautiful flowers. Too pretty to be in a Halloween planter Allie – so sorry you have a cold, but so glad to see that you aren’t letting it get you down. Now you have to go see the…

Well, got the one door in the house hung up. Took the other door out to the garage. Vince wanted to rest and then he grilled. We had some weed & feed that I just wanted to use up so I put it down. Now getting ready for dinner. Did part of the Abs Diet Workout DVD and part of a pilates DVD, then went for a walk around the…

Mo – like you, I buy things for Vince to give me for my birthday or Christmas. At least I know I like it and it fits!. Glad you had a good birthday Got the Halloween blowmolds out and decided which inflatables we will use this year. Vince is thinking that tomorrow we’ll bring in the one door that he just put the second…

Eagles – welcome Mo – happy birthday. Very congrats on the too big jeans Barbara – the reason I boil water at home is because the water at the fountain at BK is very cold. The hot water they have comes out SOOOOO slow. I’d be standing there for 3 minutes just to get ¼ of my cup, literally. So just to make it easier on me,…

Annie – doesn’t it feel good to have the things to donate out of your way? It was COLD this morning. Wore my coat to BK. But it was gorgeous this afternoon. We got all the lights for the Halloween decorations up and hooked up. Had a dentist appt for a routine cleaning. All’s well Tracey – great Halloween decoration. You…

Tracey – one of the things I didn’t like when we had a Newcomer social at our house was that I spent so much time making sure there were enough forks, knives, plates, taking pictures etc. etc. that by the time I had a chance to sit down and enjoy the company, people were leaving! Today was a sad, sad day here in NC, we had…

Carol – you never mentioned that your granddaughter was a model! Bowling today. They’re celebrating the birthdays in Sep. and Oct. Afterwards, we go for our flu shots and then Vince wants to go to Lowe’s Hardware for more wire wraps (for decorating). Lisa – I, too, can’t wait for this election to be over. All the calls!…

Exercised then walked around the neighborhood then to WalMart and bought gas. Got Vince to put the door in the garage so we can work on it and I can then clean Jess’ room. Vince wanted to do the sanding in her room. That can be done in the garage, too. The thing is, in order to do it he has to keep his car out of the…

Allie – I have the Resvent, too. Vince has the Phillips (which is no longer being made). Have an absolutely wonderful trip! The first time it went off, I thought there was a ghost in the house! Rita – good luck at the doc’s. I know you’ll make the right decision about the back brace. Is it going to be a custom fitted one?…
-
Well, we got all the ceramics into the garage. I’m hoping that tomorrow we can get them all put away. There are three that need to be fixed, two of them mine. Vince wants to wait for next year, but I want them done now so that next year we are all ready to go. I thought it would take more work to take them in, but it…

Don’t ask me to explain this...but I call Exodus Works about the TV. Well, it seems that they can’t take it to the landfill but they can move it from the house to a trailer then we have to drive it to the landfill and someone at the landfill will help us take it off the trailer. The landfill can accept something from a…

Tracey – please pass the tissue! About decluttering: I’ve gone thru a lot of photos and if there are duplicates, I throw out the duplicate. Then I wrote on the backs of the photos who is in the picture. If Jess wants to keep it...fine. If not, I don’t have a problem her throwing them out. I’m trying to get rid of as much…

Tracey – Vince did buy this insert that he put in his bowling shoes. He said his foot feels a lot better today than it did last week. Wow! Sounds like your pf is really bad. I wish we had a Costco around here, we only have a Sam’s M – feel better fast. I wish we had DST all year round, too. This changing the clocks is a…

Did Jillian Michaels Banish Fat Boost Metabolism DVD and then some yoga. Then took a walk around the neighborhood then Aldi. In a few we’ll go cut the grass We’re losing our DST, too. I have to just dream of when it’ll be back When we cut the grass, I’m going to try not wearing the special insert and see how it goes Today…
-
M – I do some of my best thinking when I’m in the pool. Guess it’s because being in the pool is so relaxing that I can think. I also find that I do a lot of thinking while I’m on my walk, but mostly about things I need to do, I add things to my grocery list (I keep it on my phone), make phone calls, things like that Made…

Pip – family can sometimes be real winners. I hope, too, they never have to deal with someone having MS. You are a much better person helping the way you do. Just got back from the UPS store. We mailed a lot of furs that MIL had to PETA. They then distribute them to the refugees in Afghanistan and Iraq. If someone can use…

Allie – oh, that ice cream cone looks delish. Are you sure he can finish it? Rori – I just love reading about your adventures with N! Mo – what an awesome weight loss Heather – happy birthday. Max looks like a grown man in that suit (which I’m sure he absolutely loved) mstin – welcome! Karen – wb Gotta run, get dinner…

Thank you everyone for your concern. We’re fine. Were without power for about 8 hours and internet for about 60. Trying to catch up. So my apologies to everyone if I don’t respond to you personally. Some downed trees in my neighborhood, that’s about the worst. Fortunately, we don’t have many trees on our property. In our…

Last night out of 4 people on two teams (each team has 2 bowlers), I was the only person there, the other three weren’t. So I was there only about an hour. Came home and started to get my sourdough reactivated. We haven’t had sourdough in a while so I’ll make some Barbara – at least it isn’t just me who doesn’t have foods…
-
Barbara – so glad you can breathe again. Vince can’t go bowling tonight “because I still can’t walk”. Really, babying something for a long time only makes it worse. Hey, I’ve been walking differently since February and only in the last week have I been able to walk sort-of normally. But I never gave up my walking. I may…

Worked then came home. Right after I got home, the landscaping guy came. I, fortunately, was able to ask him to plug and seed other areas, too. Like I said, he’s a real real nice guy. Just not good with communication, and I like communication. Then I went and counted the donations at the church. I didn’t realize it, but…
-
Worked then we had the general meeting and free bowling. I came home early and made a shrimp orzo salad to take to ceramics tomorrow night (they celebrate the birthdays once/month. To me, it should be every two or three months since there aren’t that many people who have a birthday in any given month. But whatever…)…

Lanette – we usually close the pool when it gets cold. We don’t have any trees around the pool yet you should see how many leaves get in there during the winter! I don’t know where they come from Cut the grass then put down more seed where there is only shade. This seed is for shady areas. I’m so proud that some of what I…
-
Deb – I’m glad it wasn’t a grass stain. If it was, I was going to give you a hint how to get it out of the clothing, but since it isn’t, that’s great Tracey – we usually don’t grill in winter. But I think we just might if the weather cooperates. I think the curtains look just fine. How much shorter were you thinking of…
-
Kim – thanks for all your hard work. Wonder why he gave me azaleas since he knew that it was in full sunlight Did take my car for the oil change. I like the fact that the place is almost next door to BK and you don’t need an appt. It was quite fast, too. They do state inspections, so I just may go there, too. It’s Sat and…
-
Margaret – congrats on getting the toilet fixed Lanette – I certainly hope he did, too Michele NC who needs to take a shower then get to bed.

Walked around the neighborhood. My foot still burns but I'm sure that's because the MD worked on it. Almost forgot to tell you: yesterday I went to wash a dish and suddenly we didn't have water. Vince was concerned that the hot water heater burst. Checked and nope. So he went outside to where the main valve is. Seems the…

Went into work early then home and to the podiatrist. The result at the pociatrist’s was that he looked at it and said “honestly, I’m not sure what it is”. But he did scrape out a lot. It’s a bit sore but that’s probably because he aggravated it. He said that it looked like a piece of wood got in there. I asked how that…
-
Kim – I know that some of the plants he gave me were phlox subulata red wings, phlox emerald blue, dianthus fruit punch marachino pink, firewatch dianthus, azalea pan, cum virgatum dallas blue firewortch , marchino, hydrangea incrediball blush, phlox subulata red wing, phlos subulata emerald blue, hosta white, juniperus. I…

Debbie – smart bird never telling your mom to shut up…. Barbara – the township does an electronics recycling about twice a year and the lines to take your items are outrageous. The last time we went the guy was saying how TV’s can be taken to the landfill at any time, you don’t have to wait for electronics recycling. I…
