Final August Bingo Thread (#4)
Oh come on now!! Someone has to have Bingo somewhere!! Or has everyone taken the weekend off??? LOL!!
B I N G O for REAL!!! LOL I had it with #75 just checked in....WOO HOO!!!
I guess someone will check my card right and make sure I DO HAVE IT.....What a hoot, I have all four of the grandchildren yesterday and today so I had not had a chance to check in......WHAT A SURPRISE!!!
Congrats, Janet!!!! Whoo Hoo!!!!! (bells and whistles sounding in the background)
Yes, Congrats Janet!! Whoo Hooo!!!
Oh, you do have it, JanetS . . . congrats!!!
#1 Bingo!!!!
Thanks! I am still in disbelief, I made my son check my card for me to be sure I didn't mark something wrong...lol
Oh, trust me . . . I've been keeping an eye on each card for a week now!
I am sure you have...lol I have just been popping in and out so I needed someone to check mine for me. I am surprised someone did not beat me to it!
Congratulations!!
This is really funny that the Janet we all know and love is REALLY CALLING BINGO THIS TIME!
Congratulations!!!
I still have one to go along with everyone else................
Thanks Gail....lol I thought no way! Everyone is going to think I am "crying wolf" again..LOL
Abox of baby plants (maybe some cuttings) oh, my goodness, someone will have to be sure and include instructions on how to keep them growing! This is a good time of year to get them started though....I can hardly wait! Thanks for a great game and all of the beautiful pictures too...I love drooling over some of the ones I have never been able to grow!
Congrats Janet,way to go!!!!
Congrats. Janet. I only need one but not sure if I can be back on later today.
Makshi..........ask Nichole to watch for you.........she will.........or you can tell me what you need and I will watch...............just dmail me..........I am just planting up plants today.......
Congrats Janet , it is nice someone finally won , and even better it was you :) Enjoy your plants :)
Connie :)
I think both Nichole and I are watching for Makshi!!
Yikes, we are under a tornado watch.............if it would bring rain, I would say, "Bring it on God, with mercy".
Next Bingo call for today:
42 Episcia: Blue Heaven
Bingo!!! Yea!!!
Am I too late or does this Bingo mean anything?
Pat
It sounds like you are a winner.............where is Nichole to verify your Bingo? Nichole, where are you my friend.................yes, it is important to win if you can............
Congrats, Pat!!! I know you will enjoy your prize!!
It is confirmed! A 2nd BINGO!!!! A dmail has already been sent to avpat to pick her number!!
Congratulations on a second winner!!!
Thanks everyone. No one was more surprised than me. I've been without a computer since Wednesday and it's just been making me crazy. We were traveling in a motor home and just never ended up in a place that had internet service. I'm glad to be home just because I felt so cut off from everything. We definitely need to find an internet service that works when we travel away from home.
Pat
Pat, ask Nichole what she bought on sale at Walmart that is wireless........a lap top for not much money......I was shocked!!! Then , when you travel in your motor home, you won't have to miss out on anything. (LOL)
Gail, I've got a lap top. We were on Maryland's Eastern Shore, just off the Chesapeake Bay. It was absolutely beautiful, but there was no internet to be found. I think we're going to look into some kind of satellite system for the motor home. I also checked with Comcast and it looks like they will soon be offering a wireless card that should fill our needs. I've tried the Verizon wireless card and it wouldn't work at our house, so I took it back. I know some company has to have equipment that will work where ever we are traveling. If anyone has suggestions, I'm open to all ideas. Thanks!
Pat
Someone on here has to be computer saavy and it is not me! (laughing)
Sure it has a wireless what-sit, but there still has to be a wireless network around for it to connect to!
I realized that when Pat told me what the problem was..............I was just assuming that one wireless hooks up to any signal like a cell phone does.........
You would expect wireless to be everywhere, but it isn't. It gets a little tricky when you travel. Most hotels give you wireless, but you're on your own otherwise. Epecially when you are as far outside of a town as we were.
The problem is, my laptop can detect wireless networks . . . but most of them are secure networks, and need a password . . .
You're right. That happens quite often. I couldn't pick up a wireless network at all. Not even a secure one. We were really way outside of town. Just lots of trees and water. We loved it and plan to go back again.
Just home from the beach and BINGO
Nice surprise Kamikid to come home to Bingo! Congrats! AVPat Congrats to you too!
Sounds like a lot of us were away when OUR NUMBERS were called...LOL
Thanks and congrats to you also. We had wonderful weather at the beach and stayed in the pool when we were not playing bridge. Ithink we played 120 hands of bridge. Never get tired of it. Hope you had a nice weekend where ever you were. Elaine
It is official! Bingo #3!!!
2 more to go!!!
