Thought I would drop in, before I completely forget. Sue got a call this afternoon with a message to remind her of an appointment which included a time and date, but did not say who it was from and, it only gave the option to cancel, not confirm. She did have an upcoming appointment, but she was mighty suspicious of this message. Sure enough, when she looked up the phone number recorded on her phone, it was spam. So, be extra careful if you get any such message that you do not respond.

MarsGal - Thanks for that "caution". There's always someone trying to scam someone.

I had a very nice day today!  I only did what I felt like doing but I got a lot of good things done that have been waiting for attention. 

Now I'm just about ready to head for the haystack because Cooper will be arriving around 5:45 tomorrow morning and I have to be up and have my breakfast before he gets here.  It was a nice, sunshiny day but cold.  The temp never got above 53 degrees.

I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow.  Make the day your own in every way.  And PLEASE, share with us how you did that!  We like to be with you when we can!  GOOD NIGHT!!

Goodnight anyone.

Good morning
Tad chilly here with a temp of 26° and a beautiful ful moon out!
Busy day ahead..

Jane, yes al went well..just glad to be home.
Enjoy your day and stay safe

Good Morning Everyfriend!  I wish you all a good day!

Cooper is here and he had his breakfast.  We're waiting for daylight to take a walk.  And it's winter coat weather here.  The temp was down to 34 where I am and they were warning us to watch out for lower temps.  No frost that I can see.  I guess Rick still has his weeds that need the frost to leave!

It's still dark and I don't like the dark mornings!  I don't like the bright sun mornings in the summer either.  I guess it's true.  I'm a fan of Spring and Farll!

I hope you all have a good day!  Make it your own in every way!  And tell us how you did that.  We might want to copy you!

We made it to just below 40 last night. --- Yup, the weeds are still doing their thing - and I have the sore nose to prove it.

A couple of more weeks and it will be getting light out an hour earlier. I'm sure Cooper will approve.

HELL0....thank you all for the nice welcome back.

We have been doggie sitting the last few days.  It is always enjoyable to have them here as they are good dogs, but then I am not the one that has to go out and walk them😘😘

Funny story.  This morning I was the first one up.  Our kitty boy gets a soft food breakfast every day and he makes sure that you are well aware that he is very anxious to get this FIRST before anything else.  The doggies went home last night, but their dry food dish was sitting right by the kitties bowl.  I accidentally put his little plastic container of his breakfast in the identical dog dish used for their kibble. He smelled it and walked away.  He never would not eat his food.  I ended up putting it in his bowl and he gobbled it down like crazy.  Moral of the story....I guess he does not like the smell of kibble‼️‼️

Good to hear your boy Oscar is doing better after the shot he received, MG.  I hope he continues to do well.

PATRICIA, after we returned from our Alaska Cruise we left a week or so later headed to Boston for a family visit.  When we returned my Smokey would not get two feet away from me.  He has turned into a very loving lap boy.  I did not realize Farrah is not a lap cat.  I know she has warmed up a lot though. 

My shoulders continue to be a painful issue for me but I am doing my best to do what I can with them and be thankful for what I can do😘. I unfortunately have a lot of lower back and bursa  pain on both sides of my legs and am definitely in need of getting more injections to help with it.  Problem being the injections cause my blood sugar issues to sky rocket.  What to do?  It is obvious that I need to do all I can while I can‼️ These GOLDEN YEARS are definitely the rusting ones for me😩😩

We have decided to spend the winter in AZ to be near our #3 sons family.  We have been lucky to spend very precious time with our older grands and now feel the need to be hands on with the last two littles.  They are 2 and 5 and we miss them so after their relocation a few months ago.  We have leased a very nice condo right on the golf course where our son is the head golf pro.  The family lives less than 5 minutes away.  We are looking forward to it.  Getting everything tied up here is our issue right now.  Trying to get medical taken care of‼️

I must say goodnight. 

Once I get started I tend to over stay my welcome😆😆

Pleasant dreams to all🍁

Hello Everyfriend!

NUMBER 1...JENNY, you NEVER overstay your welcome!  We're always delighted when you show up!  It sounds like you will have a nice winter near the kiddies.  I've been spending about 5 weeks a year in Oklahoma so I can be close to my 3 great-grands.  I really want to know them!  And when my daughter or granddaughter face time me, they all talk to me!  I love it!  I wish you a great time with your family!

Beginning this Friday, I'll have Cooper all day and all night for a week.  Frankie is going on vacation with her mother  and her aunt and will have some time with her brother.  And I'll have the doggie!

I'm going to hit the haystack early tonight because I never managed a nap today.  And I have to be up and attem at 5 a.m. again tomorrow.  I sure wish Frankie would go back to her 7 a.m. starts and toss out the 6 a.m. ones.

I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow!  Have a great day and do whatever suits your fancy!  Good night for now!

Gonna be a fun week 

Good morning..

Another chilly morning starting at 24° but it is going to be a nice sunny day.

Got most of the baking done all but the buns yesterday. So today will be the Lithuanian Bacon buns to have ready for luch.

Jane, nice you will have a full week on not getting up at 5 am and have a cuddle partner!!

Better get busy.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Yep, theat's the best part of having Cooper for a whole week... I don't have to get up until we are both ready!  And then breakfast and our first walk can be right in line!

Today, he's here and we're waiting for some daylight!  He seems to know that we have to wait and he watches the windows almost as much as I do.

Not much on the agenda for today.  I have a casserole planned for supper.  Guess I better get the meat out of the freezer or it won't be ready when I am.  I hope you all have a great day.  Be sure to let us know what's up!  We need the news!

Well, that's that for today!  Good Night Everyfriend!

Where is  Everyone?  Have I lost all my friends?

Good morning..

Miss Jane, you were to sleep in today! You're up before the roosters crow!

It has been a busy week but I think things are slowing down...I hope. Yesterday was fun with a visit with the kids. Sent most of the buns back home with them along with the raisin pie.

Today is pick up a few things in town then use the leafblower and if time (and energy) use the pressure washer on the walkways. Laundry may get squeezed in somewhere.

Talke with my friend and she is home from the hospital,she said this new pneumonia  is horrible and lasts for 5-6 weeks!
Larry Curly and Moe crow have moved on. We saw a huge flock of crows in a corn field when we went to the city.

Better get the day started..

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

I fell asleep in front of the TV last night. Then just moved to bed. Saturday morning is always a late starting day for me.

AMY, my week with Cooper doesn't start until NEXT Friday!  He'll be here days every day except Tuesday this week then he won't go anywhere Friday until she comes home the next weekend. 

I did a lot of cooking today.  I made a batch of "Jim's Egg Thingys" and cooked some hard boiled egges for Frankie and a coupe for me and made some eg salad for sandwiches out of it.  I took a shower and got cleaned up and I made plans for lunch on Wednesday with my Pennsylvania work friends.  And I put some stuff away that's been waiting around for a week or more.  And now I'm going to loaf!

I hope you are all having a great day!  Do whatever you want to do!

GOOD NIGHT, EVERYFRIEND!  SLEEP WELL AND WAKE REFRESHED!

Good morning..
Starting off at 31° and heading to the mid 60's.  Yesterday was a busy one. Tried out the new pressure washer and was happy with the jbo it did. Then onto the leafblower to bunch up the pine needles ,just need to pick them up.
 
Today is a day of welcomed rest! May finish off a quilt .
 
Jane, that is a week to look forward to.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good Morning AMY and anyone else who stops by!  I'm waiting for some daylight so I can take Cooper for his morning walk and then when we get back I'll be hopping into the shower to start getting ready to head for church.  Cathy will be picking me up and dropping me off a bit before 10. 

Later today, Cooper and I will have another walk and I'll try to think of something to do that will be beneficial to my house keeping. 

I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow!  Make the day your own in every way!  And be sure to tell us how you did that.  We might want to try it out!

Hi, everyone.

I don't think I mentioned where we went for my B'day meal. We went to T. J. Rockwell's, off of Rt. 15 South, near Williams Grove Park. The amusement park, which opened in 1850, no longer exists. What still remains is the rather large trailer park and the Williams Grove Speedway. The speedway still holds a top spot in the world of Sprint Car racing. And, I still remember rooting for Bobby Allen, a big favorite locally. Just four years older than me, he still involved in Sprint Car racing, though now an owner rather than a driver. His son and grandson do the racing these days.

After lunch, we walked across the parking lot to Ashcombe's Farm and Greenhouse where I bought some narcissus and a bag of bonemeal. Today or tomorrow, I hope to get the bulbs planted. Ashcombe's, before the garden center, is where we went to pick strawberries in the summer. I don't know if many orchards and farms around here offer "pick-your-own" programs anymore. Happily, I noted that there is still a lot of farmland between Rt.15 and Mechanicsburg that has not yet been taken over to grow houses and warehouses.

Good morning. Here it is, Sunday already.  These weeks just fly by‼️‼️

Today is our second born grandson's 18th Birthday.  My goodness😘

Dr. Dave returned early this morning after spending parents weekend in Utah with our oldest grandson in college there.  I am anxious to hear all about it‼️

JANE, when we have grand doggies here they just adjust to our schedule and it is great.  Sleep in or get up when ever....so much easier than having to get ready for their arrival😘  I know you two always enjoy your time together💗 I appreciated reading about your going to OK to be near your grands also.  These are very precious times.  We could be taking a very expensive cruise for the $$ we are paying to do this rental< but family time is the BEST‼️

AMY, did your friend have the pneumonia shots before her getting this terrible bout of pneumonia?  Bob and I have had every shot recommended....good or bad, who knows🤷. Bless your friend's heart; she must be so thankful to be home.  Happy to read you had family time yesterday. 

RICK, I often fall asleep in front of the TV😆😆 Last night I could hardly keep my eyes open but ended up watching the rest of darn football game anyway.  Guess I got my second wind‼️

MG, I enjoyed looking up the places you mentioned about where you celebrated your birthday.  When we were in Boston earlier this month we did go pick apples off the trees and it was a fun expierence🍁. There are places here in Colorado over on the Western slope, around Grand Junction where you can go pick peaches and pears off the trees😘. There are farms here that you go out in the field and pick your own pumpkin.  Of course they have been cut off the vine and you just select the one you want.  Little kids are pretty impressed with doing this vs buying one at the store‼️‼️

Enjoy your Sunday EVERYFRIEND ❣️

Well, this was a busy day!  I got a lot done and I'm tired and ready to hit the haystack.  I have a special tomorrow.  Frankie doesnt go to work until seven so I don't have to be ready to meet Cooper until 6:45.  I won't know what to do in the morninhg. 

O wish you all a peaceful sleep and a pleasant day tomorrow. 

One of my keys is stuck to another one and when I want a hg I hget tw0 letters.  Sorry about that!

Goodnight to anyone who might still be up.

Good morning..

Another lovely day in the making ,startingoff at 47° and heading to the 70's. I took advantage of the nice weather yesterday to bag up all the pine needles and put them on the walkway and under the trugs to keep the weeds at bay.  I pulled the carrots out and hope I don't get the same kind for next year, most were over a foot long and difficult to pull. The wind tickled the laundry dry in no time.

Today , clean up the carrots,and mow the back yard.....hope for the last time!

Jenny, I don;t know if she did have her shot but will ask next time I am talking with her. We have had ours plus shingle shot and all the covid ones, just waiting on the flu shot to come in.

Rick ,I was long gone by that time. Had trouble watching tv through my eye lids and called it an earlly night.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

That must be catchy 

That must be catchy 

As a matter of fact it also started the day before...

Amy --- I don't think there's a cure for it

Rick, I don't mind....

Three missing lately. If anyone knows how to contact them, please do.  Patricia, Vanilla-Jackie, MaryPage.
