Coffee Break # 81

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I have mentioned this before but will repeat it. Was doing my window boxes today and some biting insect kept at my head. Was driving me nuts. Went in and sprayed myself with catnip and voila! No more problems.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Where do you get catnip spray?

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Pet store.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Cool, good to know....do your cats chase you around, though? am I going to attract all the neighborhood cats?

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Just the toms. ^_^

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Thanks so much for the thoughts and prayers, we need as many as we can get. Got a a call from my son telling us they wanted to do some kind of full body scan on Domenic and he would have to be sedated for it, we will get the results on Monday.
On top of the stress of worry about that, while we were at the gym this morning a catering table fell on my GD Luci's foot in the babysitting room! Fractured in 3 places. Apparently another little girl was climbing on the table and it fell over. I don't know if the table was supposed to be there or not.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Geeze, Ronnie! Hope your fortunes improve soon!

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Me too Victor :(

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Ohhhh Victor.You got me.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Oh good Lord, when it rains it pours

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Oh, poor Luci! Praying for quick healing in her foot. Hugs Ronnie.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

praying for Domenic Ronnie.. hoping for the best babe

Halifax, MA(Zone 6a)

Ronnie, praying for your GS. I hope it turns out to be negative. And how awful about your GD!!!! Not good. The poor girl. This will ruin her summer.

Those donuts look yummy, Celeste! Are they as good as the ones you get at donut shops? Sounds like Adam is doing well for now, and that's encouraging news. Nice pic of Hunter and her clarinet.

Oh, frack, Jo, sounds like we're in an episode of Battlestar Galactica! Not to diminish your anger over what's going on. I try not to get too heated over things that our government does, as I have enough stress in my life already. It is senseless what they're doing, though. Can't believe they're selling water to Japan!

Oh Ronnie, poor Luci! Will pray for positive outcome from the testing and healing prayers for the whole family!

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Thanks you guys are the best♥
Luci will go to the ortho today to see about a cast. Her sister Sophie was funny all she wants to do is be able to draw on it!
I stared prednisone yesterday for my PI and already the itching has calmed down, thank goodness. I was looking out the window where the weeds are and may have to call someone to clean it out. I'm afraid to take any chances.

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Glad the itching has subsided. That is the worst!

Taking DGD, Hope, to The Lancaster area today. See you all later.

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Have fun Jan!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I had to start the Medrol pack yesterday too. My PI had me up the night before last. Much better now.

Natural gas is cheap & clean. I hate electric companies. You can fight city hall easier.

I got bit by something on my eye again, its swollen, same eye same place WTH? I hate Benadryl. It makes me dopey and tired, but I have to take it to get the swelling to go down quicker.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

oh feel better Sherrie.. I got stung or bit by something quick yesterday.. didn't even see it.. wasn't that bad though

Thomaston, CT

Sherrie, I had to get a cortisone shot for a bee sting near my eye......but...the doc told me to continue taking Benadryl! Ronnie, so sorry for Lucy.....awful time to have that happen! Hope all goes well for Domenic! Victor, I've found rubbing sweet fern on my skin repels bugs as well.....

Nothing will stop a mosquito from penetrating the skin except oil. Take a dryer sheet and rub it on your skin. Then stick the sheet in your hat or down your shirt.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Dryer sheets never worked for me. But I did lose any wrinkles I had.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

they didn't work for me either.. but I am an exceptional magnet

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

So am I.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

21 years ago was was last day of freedom. (Anniversary tomorrow. ^_^)

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Ahhhh, WC, tell him I miss him

Happy anniversary!








































The only thing that really works for all is Off and it stinks.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Whoa!! What did you do, Sherrie?!!

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Had a great day in Lancaster. Was going to send a pic on icab, but it isn't doing something and I have no idea what to do. Lol. We went to Hershey Farm located next to Sight and Sound for a buffet breakfast. Very good. Then we did the two tours and drove around on some back roads. Came home in time to go to a graduation party. Now the kiddies are running around catching fireflies after gathering some twigs for kindling. Pop-pop is finishing getting the tent set up. Almost time to light the fire.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

happy anniversary Victor!!.. the skedattle works great for me.. but is a strong odor .. don't mind because it's natural stuff in there.. but have to remember to re spray every few hours

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Happy Anniversary Victor!
Jan glad you enjoyed your day, I love Lancaster, such pretty scenery.
Luci has a "pink" cast from her toes to right below her knee. Her foot is broke in four places but she is doing great. Right now she thinks it's pretty cool.

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Love the pink cast!

Happy Anniversary, Victor and your sweet wife!

Okay, they are all in the tent. They enjoyed the s'mores! Hope they sleep for Jeff's sake. Heehee at least until the birds start their tweeting.

Halifax, MA(Zone 6a)

Nice that Luci has a pretty cast. Will help make her feel better.

Victor, Happy Anniversary!

Tell WC I said "Hi!"

Karen

Halifax, MA(Zone 6a)

Sounds like fun, Jan. Have a great time!

South Hamilton, MA

Prayers for all. Just had family to visit. I'm glad that it was before the deerflys arrived.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Ya, Sherrie, what the heck happened there?

I hope that gym is going to cover the medical costs!!!!!!!!!!

What's a deerfly?

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Glad Luci is taking this so well and in no pain. I'd make sure the gym paid for the medical bills at least!
Jen, Deerfly is like a horsefly or a green head( the ones that are on the beach, they hatch in seaweed)....all the same family I believe. They hurt when they bite and leave a nasty welt!! Justin is allergic to all of them.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Happy Anniversary Victor & Better Half!! ^_^
