Just got home and I am exhausted..my brain is long gone and there is an 8 year old under foot

Sheri and Elvis welcome......I see you have been introduced to Tubby and the rest of the gang!

Started out this morning at the bank, had to get some deposits in.......next the big lineup at the YMCA to get Sage signed up for swimming lessons.....stopped at home long enough for half a cup of coffee then had to take MIL to Therapy for her Knees....stop to place an order for supplies for DH.....take MIL back home get her meds and make sure she is settled....time to pick up Laura and Sage...stop by the market for a few items MIL needs for dinner....drop Laura at MIL's....trip back to the bank to make a transfer for my son....Pick up DH and drop him at class...then Sage and I went to the library and to the book store...got her a book on drawing for kids and a sketch book to draw in....picked up DH and then to Sages favorite Asian place for dinner....car was running on sail boat fuel so a stop by for gas....a trip through the store for breakfast and lunch for Sage and Bill for tomorrow.....what's left of me is finally home.....

Only thing for tomorrow is have to take MIL in for a five minute blood test in the morning....may have to give Laura a ride home at that point...then nothing until bike ride time (unless Laura gets stuck at MIL's in which case I will have to take Sage to swim lessons)....any spare time will be spent working on dismantling the old pond and getting the new bed situated.

If I survive all of this will talk to you all tomorrow...hope everyone has a good night.

Has anyone talked to Mary recently???

Victoria Harbour, ON

Morning, sun is shinning through the windows here this morning, great day ahead, one wonders why it's always during the week though..lol..

Trisha I'm not the only one on the go/go/go..look at the day you just had..I'm just so excited to see your pond done, think I did ask, is it on the side of the house or in the back yard? You sure do keep Sage involved in activities...lucky little girl..

When Noah was here last night on his bike he said now that school is out he'll drop in more often and spend the night..then he asked me about the corner unit that I worked on over the weekend...said 'when I was here grandma yesterday, didn't you paint it white'..so had to explain the paint white, then blue, then sand method to hm...

Must remember to call Judith, hairdresser and cancel my appt. tonight..

Did have an e-mail from Mary when I got up this a.m. she says she'll try and post tonight..had busy few days with working and doing interviews..waving hi...

Going to have my coffee outside, see if any new blooms saying 'good morning Betty'

Talk later...

My humor 4 the day!!!!!!!






It's getting to be that time of year, so this might be helpful



WINDEX

KEEP THIS IN MIND AS YOU ARE DOING YOUR CLEANUP CHORES.






New use for Windex


I haven't checked ' snopes.com ' to see if this actually
Works or not . . . But they say,




If you ever get the sudden Urge to run around naked,
You should sniff some Windex first.
It'll keep you from streaking.

Just did my walk-around..not a happy camper...the mature tree that overhangs on the pond is down...we haven't had bad weather, not sure what could have

Most likely my gardens on this side of the pond will be flattened..

Results from MRI on my neck. It is bulging disk....NOT the cancer...Thank You God.!!!

I'm off to S.D. Going to help DS ..She is having an auction..She is moving to N.M.
I'm taking my riding lawn mower up to cut grass....She should of had it baled..LOL
They have had so much rainy weather it just got away from her....See you all thursday.

I hope !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Liz, keep the rusted high back chairs, I'm sure you'll come up with a garden design using them..another garage sale, now didn't you have boxes left over from the last one all priced out? Glad your sister didn't throw a fit..you would not think would you that the robin would feel safe enough to go inside the jar to get peanuts..he must be a hungry sucker...

Fantastic news 'Tubby'..I'm sure that every time you have to go to check something out it's always a thought that the 'cancer' might have come back..now what can they do for a bulding disk? rest and let it heal? if so, doesn't sound as thought you'll do it, not with going to cut the grass today...bet Shirley can breathe a sigh of relief...thanks you Lord, prayers do get answered....

Glenview, IL

Good Morning!!

Oh Betty, i am so Happy you like my gifts, geesh sure glad it's there already! LOL, right to counter too, see Ups heard me right...Make haste, i am late! Boy did I have a hard time for customs, lol I was like if I tell you whats all in the box...my friend will know before she even opens it, these are gifts! They didn't seem to care, lol...was just exasperated!

Oh Know!! Wonder what happen to your tree! Bummer that happened...I hope your plants didn't get too smooshed.
Hmmm, Sorry to hear about hair appt, but have fun at Graduation! Wow, your kids go late...

Liz, LOL, i was just wondering about the new squirrel feeder! Well hopefully the lil guy will figure out how to get into it...
I love that picture of him eating the plum, very, very cute! You did a great job on making it too...So when you going to start the picket fence?? Ohhh, I am so glad your birthday was great...Hey what are those tall plant to the lower right of your picture?? Those are cool!

Crissy, Awsom for you! Keeping books is a burden i don't wish to have either, lol I just put the receipts on the check book!
How cool, you have a MA in IT...great field to be in, although isn't it a bit stressfull?...Well i hope not.

I hope you all enjoyed your icecreams! Can't have any myself.

Oh Betty, Football camp is all this week! 7:45 till 10 AM...I am sure glad it's early in the morning before things get too heated up.

Tubby, wonderful news! Now we will need the duct tape to tie that man down to rest! I think we need more than one roll.

Just a quick hello and I am off to Rochester to get the stitches out of my lef finally. No biggie. Should be back home by 1;30 ish....unless a store catches my eye.

Well I can't get out in the gardens or should say jungles for at least 2 weeks they because of high temps and fells like over 100 with humidity. Time to get some stuff done inside. Another pretty daylily. Get a new one almost every day now. HUGS TO ALL BEV

Yay Tubby!!!!! I am extremely happy to hear that!!

Remember everyone, they're not my books, I just fix the problems, I'm sort of the help desk. It's not a Masters, just a Bachelors. I've thought about getting my Masters but unless someone else wants to pay for it :) I don't have that much stress, starting July 1st I'll make around $12.00 an hour as a Secretary for the IT Department. The only stress I have is I don't make near enough for the degree I have, with the $2.00 an hour raise, I should be making around $20.00 to $25.00 an hour. I love working on and building computer programs and internet and what-not.

Oh I always wondered what an artichoke looked like in bloom. Personally I can't stand them but in CA everyone else does, so I never got to see.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Liz, I absolutely love artichoke dip..it makes for a pretty flower though..

Debbie, hope taking the stitches out won't hurt..I know you, you are going to stop into a Christmas Tree store right, then come back and tease me..you know out of everything I bought or mom bought me when we were at crackerbarrel, only thing I've put outside is the little bird bath..I want some more pretties...go case our CrackerBarrel and Christmas Tree for me please...

Bev, you know when I sit and think of all the days we can't get outside in the winter because of the cold/blizzards, it's not much different for you all is it with severe heat waves/humidity...in winter I've the heat on and in summer you have the a/c on...except you get to see beauty like those daylillies in your garden.. does Scotty find it difficult health wise in this type of heat?

Crissy, would it mean that in order to get the $$$ for the degree you have you'd have to go searching in cities? for employment..do you have far to drive, perhaps if you are close to home it's savings on gas..lots to take into consideration..

Just realized that Saturday is the Elmvale Canada Celebrations...it's where I bought quite a few lillies last year...best I get my plant allowance set aside and do me some shopping..



















Nilwood, IL(Zone 5b)

Yeah Betty, I can't take Scotty anywhere in this heat and humidity. He gets sick. BEV

Victoria Harbour, ON

Does he normally go to the trailer with you Bev on regular weather days?
You just can't win can you..we hope/hope for summer weather and when it hits it hits with a vengence..suppose to get to almost 80 here today, for us it's hot but acceptable..
