Lloyd...
...your guardian angel was with you that day..

Hello ----- Lloyd

Well imagine my surprise and delight to open up and see LLOYD's post!  Welcome back dear friend!

We had a busy day today!  Dan went to the flower garden with Ali to help her get it in shape after all the rain and Cindy and I went over and watched the kids.  That was really fun but we both came home exhausted!  I do it again  in a minute!  But I bet we'll both sleep well tonight!  I don't have a clue what's on the agenda for tomorrow but whatever it it, I'm going to love it!

Now I'm ready for the haystack!  When I finish here and do a couple odd jobs I'm going to find a soft spot in the haystac and snuggle in!  I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow.  Make the day your own in every way!  And stop by and share it with us!

Good morning

No sign if the northen lights here although I did look out at 11:30 pm .
Overcast with a temp of 44°, may see sun.
A day of rest here, although I am beginning to wonder what constitutes rest!

Babe is doing not too bad, vet said I can up her pain pill if needed at this stage of the game.Her hearing is spot on, just try and sneak a cookie and Miss Babe will let you know she also wants some.

Lloyd good to see you.

Better get on with the day..

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Same here.

Happy Mother's Day....

My computer quit this morning. I'll be back when I get it working again. Sorry!!!

Good morning..

Staring of sunny but there are dark clouds to the south and they just may hold that rain weather man was talking about.

Friends were to stop by today but that has been canceled to another day. Will give me time to pick ,clean,cut and bag rhubarb for her.

Taking vehicle in to see why no a/c..hope it is an easy fix.

Jane, I am sorry to read about your computer...hope too that it is an easy fix for you.

Jenny good to see you and moving is  a big job!! Your job is very helpful plus you get to enjoy the little ones.

Better get this show on the road and get the day started.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

I've been on line with the storeback home whereI bought my computer and he has me back on line!  I thanked him profusely!

We had dinner last night at Ali and Dan's and Dan did most of the work for our Mother's Day present.  He did a great job!  Everything was delicious!

Now it's raining again here.  I hope it doesn't ruing Ali'sflowers!  I don't think they've had this much rain since they moved here!  And it's a tad chilly too!

I don't know what's on our agenda but I know Cindy has time to make up on her work-at-home job because she had my computer hooked up to her monitor while my guy was working on it!  She's a sweetheart!

AMY, good luck with the rhubarb.  I did juice last summer but I bet I won't be home in time to do that this summer!

JENNY, you sure are enjoying the kids!  Keep at it whenever you can.  That's a special job!  I'm loving my time with the Great Grands while I'm here!  They wear me out but I love it!

I wish you a a great day!  Make it your own in every way!  And don't forget to share it with us!

Jane, so good to see you back on line and running tickity boo!! I have 18 cups of rhubarb cut up and vacuum seal it for my friend. I will get some later when I find time.

Good morning, it's 46 degrees at 9:06, partly sunny and nice outside. I have nothing going on except a series of serial email conversations with a number of folks and trying to clean out my fridge.

Jenny and Jane, enjoy your time with the littlest. The youngest in my family is 34 and has her own husband to cuddle with.

Amy, the Native Elders Center below and across the street from me, is bringing in soil and preparing their multiple trugs for planting on Memorial Day. They grow food to share with the Native Elders in their communities. I admire that Natives, both Eskimo and Indian, revere and respect their elders, who are the backbone of their communities.

The vehicle now has a/c and didn't  cost an arm or leg!
Patricia, that is such a special task ,making both sides happy!
 

Good morning..

Wet one out there this morning, may see sun around noon. We were to go away but plans have changed, maybe another time.

I can get busy and take the blocks apart for the quilt to redo them into another pattern.This pattern would try the patience of Jobe..

Better get the day started..

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good Morning Everyfriend!  I've been up and attem for a bit now.  I went for a walk, had my breakfast and hid in the background while Cindy had a call with several of her people all at once!  I'm so impressed with the job she does!  It's amazing how they stop to listen and absorb her opinions!  I knew she was smart but it's always nice to know that others know that too!

I'm not sure what's up with us today but there's an Amish store a little way from here and I know she wants to make a trip there because they carry the lunch meant and cheese that is special to Pennsylvania.  Don't know if that will be today of not.  And I don't know if we're getting any kids today either.  It's "wait and see" for me!

I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as  tomorrow!  Make it your own in every way and don't forget to pop in here.  We miss you when we don't see  you!

Good morning, after a night of showers, it's 42 and cloudy, heading to only 60 today. I hope everyone is having a good day re quilting issues or Amish trips and that Rick is doing well.

I'm in the middle of some chores I've been putting off and trying to finish what I'd already started, so hopefully, a productive day.

Likewise, I hope everyone reading this or passing by has one also.

The day didn't go as planned but that is ok.  I did manage to get some trug beds cleaned and ready plus mow the lawn.  Maybe tomorrow will have time to do quilting..maybe.
Noticed that the swallows have chose the birdhouse on the right......same as last year. Others have two nests in the shed where the riding lawnmower is kept.

Rick, no Oak Island !! I do watch Mysteries of the Abandoned  and find it intersting.

We will be getting "Skinwalker Ranch" but so far it hasn't caught my interest.  "Mysteries of the Abandoned" sounds familiar, and I might have watched it. Saw about searching for German Subs from WWII.

I have watched Skinwalker Ranch and like you it also didn't catch my interest.  I just hope there is something worthwhile.

Good morning

Another cloudy day here...

Friends are to stop in today for a visit and exchange of goodies. Other than that not too much is planned. Domestic duties to be done...oh boy.

Bubble thank you for posting Janes GG.

Jane, thank you for sharing your little man,stock up on all the hugs you can!

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

All I need to do is ask and the hug is there.  He's a sweetheart but one that's full of mischief!!!

Maybe I should get off of here and stay off.  Seems like when I post everyone stays away.  That's not good!

I'm always here. It's just that I'm me --- of few words.
I think Spring rains are still around. Not wet out there right now but no sun either. Just plain Blah today.

I check in every day but don't always post. Things have quieted down considerably. Nothing exciting happening at the moment unless you consider me exile from the TV for a few days because I need to replace the remote batteries which should arrive in a few days. In the afternoon, I played around with the all-in-one computer that my sister gave me. Of course she can't remember, and has not run across, the password for it so I can get into administrative to change the name, photo, and email. Jim took care of most of that stuff for her. Having said that, I discovered that there is one thing at least that I can change anyway even though it gives me the "you need to sign-in with a verification code message". I just click through until it does what I want. Sue never even changed her email account login. The one it wants to send to is no longer used. The thing has a wonderfully sharp monitor. Jim always bought high end computers. Lots more RAM, lots more storage. I accidently installed Windows 11 on it when I ran update on it. It looks nothing like the setup on my Windows 11 Laptop. Much more like Windows 10. Now I have to disappear that blasted Co-Pilot and download another browser to avoid all those annoying ads and nanny messages from MS and advertisers.

Oh, and I stayed up until around 2:30am reading a book I just could not put down. Keep in mind that the cats start trying to roust me out of bed around 4am. I did have a cup of tea and then napped out on the sofa for a few interrupted hours, but you can bet there is a major nap coming up this afternoon. 

So that was my "exciting" day yesterday. Not sure what I am going to do today.

Mars - I had a cat, named MAX, who was an indoor/outdoor cat. Every day he would show up around 4 O:Clock and make me take a nap. He would stand on the floor near where I was and look back and forth between me and the sofa, till I went there and lied down. Then he would join me.

I'm here as well, just not much to report other than the same chores, meet and greets and other daily events. Unless you want to hear about my deep cleaning the fridge and stove? Or my repotting my mini rose bush.

Rammel, I get that time-for-bed look if I stay up a little too late.

Hi Patricia.
