In two weeks hubby and I are headed to Ft Lauderdale and Cape Coral. In Ft Lauderdale we are attending the wedding of one of two young ladies my husband helped to raise when they were little. Their mum was married to his next door neighbor who was a bad dude - even on America's Most Wanted at one point. When he went on the…

Carey - gotta like those geeky looking twins - great tune! excellent thought for the day too! Well it's Moose-Counting day here. Residents call in to wildlife officials office any moose seen today and they go out and tag them to compile into on how many resident moose we have in and around town this winter. Time to head…

OOOOOOooohhhhhhhhhh the dreaded long weekend post.. Katla in Oregon - they are reindeer :-) they bring them in from a nearby reindeer farm for the “Running with the Reindeer” race (kindof like the running of the bulls in spain, only much safer). Envious of your horsey-time .. I love them, and would love to have one again.…

Sharon - thx :-) .. can’t wait for the next 34!!! Although our mum’s are gone they still take up extensive acreage in our hearts. Pink shirts = obnoxious parents (aren’t there always some in the crowd uuggghhhhh). Best wishes for better health for your brother, & I’m sure your friends are missing you just as much. Kate UK…

Re - congrat’s on your weight loss !!! Barbie - sorry to hear about Sasha’s leg, I hope its not neurologic Lanette - the OneDrop is…

Carey - So glad your scale is moving in the right direction! Lenora - luckily I do get to chat with her when I'm dreaming .. so used to telling her all about everything that I just can't quit the habit. Her voice is with us all of the time.. my parrot picked up her laugh when she visited. MASSIVE Congrat’s on your…

Toni - mum and I had such fun together.. she really was like my best friend. Can hardly believe its been 2 yrs since she passed. I still find myself picking up the phone at work on occasion to call her - we talked every day. Her other naughty treat was mac & cheese (she may have been a cheese-a-holic) LOL I'm working on a…

There's a brand in Canada I used to get from Zellers, might be by Humpty Dumpty now .. they were soooo addictive .. they had kind of a aluminium taste/feel to them. During the years I cared for my mum when she was slowly dying, she would get cravings for them and send me out on midnight runs to the corner store. We would…

Thanks Rita - I found a stash of them with this cute character and thought they might be fun to use as placemarks here in the discussion group. They make me smile - I’m glad you like them :-) .. btw - Gypsies ROCK! Katla - I would love a recumbent. Do you find there is less stress on your spine with them as compared to a…

Thanks so much. I'm trying to kick it into high gear

Awesome to see new reasonable rational free-thinkers joining!! yayyyyyyyyy LOL .. a place of sanity in a world gone crazy. I'm Canadian (where easily 49% of the population are humanist/atheist) .. but I live in Alaska and am drowning in bible-thumpers. Math science and the cosmos are so amazing and wonderful in themselves…
