Coffee Break # 86 Fall is here!

So glad to hear that you had success with a chiropractor too, Marilyn. Mine has 2 very good massage therapists. I haven't been for awhile. First things first. Yes, Allison...you and Randy really should go! My favorite is the warm stones massage.

There is a gorgeous glow outside here today...we're in the golden glow phase of the foliage. Lots of leaves down!

When the sun hits the yellow tulip poplar leaves, there is a glow.

That yellow glow had me totally awe-struck when I first moved to Connecticut from So. Cal. Never had seen anything like it!

I love which ever turn bright orange as well

I love the bright reds too. Not too much of them here :(

We are just about peak here now. Have to take some pics.

There is an oak that turns burgundy.....love it....

Leah is 6 months old, and has gained 12 lbs and grown 10 inches.

Good for her!

OH look at that gorgeous face!!!

10 inches! That is a lot, isn't it?

Well, she was only 2 lbs and 15 inches when she was born. So she has grown a lot :-)

that's awesome!!.. she is so adorable!!!

Very A D O R A B L E!!!

awwwww

Leah is a doll! Going from preemie size to full baby size is very exciting. How happy all must be!

What a cutie pie! So nice to have a little girl to dress up!

Just terrible

Sliver in my finger & cant see it. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Do you have a magnifying glass?

Very sad about that child, Jen.....& you're right ....what was that nitwit doing in the polar bear pond?

Sherrie - try rubbing duct tape in the sliver area and see if it will latch onto it and then you can pull it out.

terrible about the kid Jen... I was getting the alerts about it the last few days... just terrible

So beautiful, Deb!

Wow Deb, she's so adorable and such a strong little angel to have come so very far. It's nice to see her smiling and thriving. ^_^

Thanks everyone, she certainly makes me smile!

cute!

A day off is not a day off. Ebay here I come. I bought this Art Glass Orchid Vase. TIMO SARPANEVA. I would not own it.

that's ummmmm different



they arrested 2 teenage boy brothers 15 and 17, they wanted her bike
REALLY what the heck????!!!!!!!!! Then just steal the bike...scumbags!

Sherrie - what do you think it will fetch?

Saw the article, Jen....very disturbing......Sherrie, I'm sure someone will want that vase....many folks collect modern pieces...

Good luck, Sherrie!!

That happened about 25 miles from me. V E R Y disturbing.

Make sure you go wish our KY friend VV a happy birthday

Guessing around $250 for the orchid vase but that is only a guess. Took a gamble & paid 110 EEEKS. I picked up 9 cups & saucers for 10 bucks. Here is a Wedgewood Patrician - Its kind of artsy deco.

Edit - Should say it dates to around 1920

LOVE them!!!!

Very pretty!

Frankenstorm is coming..no getting out of this ones way. :( On the upside I noticed our lineman out checking on things this week.
They were trimming the branches that hang on/near the lines and checking the sturdiness of the poles, replacing old, weak ones.
Still got the wood stocked, generator will be full tonight along with all the cars/trucks and will visit the grocery store today.

I bet our stores will be cleared out by tonight.. for the snow storm you couldn't find water, batteries or parmalot anywhere.. the parmalot was cleared out already.. I bought the store brand

I think you will be spared the worst, Celeste. We are in for it - from Del to Ct will get the hardest.

Just in - fire, ice and locusts forecast for Halloween 2013.

Seriously, stay safe, all.

Yes Victor this time I think N.J. & N. Y. are the ones w/a direct hit. :( Stay safe.
