Something...................see, I said, "Something" as requested...lol

Yes, Darius is right, I have been at Molly's for the RU and we had a great time. I sure Art will post pictures. Darius is also right about the trees.....gone........

I was on my cruise during the storm and spent 8 of the 10 days worring about my home and my baby Archie who was at the kennel. Both were fine....The screening around the pool and my garden............well......that's another story. The orchids, about 70, half landed in my pool and sat there for a week. May I tell you that orchids do not do well in chlorine for a week.....they are almost all black now....I don't think any will survive. I have cut the garden WAY back and I see some growth on a few things....others were just pulled out. I just cried.....

We had power by the time we got back which meant A/C....but no phone or net until last night. Hence, no me here.....good to feel as though I was missed.

The biggest tragety is my husband...he built this home about 25 years ago and did some of the work himself. To see even any part of it destroyed has put him in a terrible place. I cleaned the entire yard and gardens ALONE....he did nothing but watch a little TV and sleep. He hardly even is talking. I feel very sorry for him....This storm really took a toll on him.

I have missed you all so much and glad to see all is "Normal"....well as normal as this bunch is.....lol

Maria, I am so glad that you spell like myself. I have always spelled the red veggie/fruit,,,,,,tomatoe....and then there is a potatoe....When did we drop the "E" at the end?

Bal. .....I have made lasagna with the regular noodles, uncooked for years....put a little more liquid in my sauce and pop into the oven. I laughed when I saw the "Unboil noodles"..........heck, they all are....plus the old noodles are cheaper....

I must confess, I did not read the 10 issues of Coffee that I missed. If I did, I would never have gotten to write this.

Oh, Maria, I take it you have a dog? So that I don't have to go back and look for it would you mind posting another pic? thanx

Chat later and God Bless you all.
