Best/Worse/What did I learn today?Chat with friends Old&New!

Morning all,
Thought I'd put us into an almost spring room

We moved from here

http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1387776/

Going to read last nights post, get myself a coffee and come back to chat while deciding
If I want to go to Home Depot and get a roll of linoleum to do living room floor matt or set up a quilt on the frame.

Seeing mom doubts we will go to buffalo as nobody to look after aunt Muriel's dog I just might get both done this weekend

Before I walk into the other room I want to let LindaKay know im praying for Dylan, let's hope there is good news this morning

Hello. I am the first one today!! Hope Dylan is getting along well Linda Kay. Got to go to Springfield see you soon. BEV

Hugs for you Linda K. Happy, healthy thoughts for Dylan.
Seems he gets the worst of whatever is going around, just as Ryleigh does. Whatever hits her, hits hard.
Malena sniffles for a few days, Ryleigh coughs herself sick, get fever, the works.
I hate when kids get sick. Such a feeling of despair, just can't do enough to help them.
more hugs LK.

Hugs for Y'all, have a great day. Got to pack my lunch, and finish getting ready for work :(

Safe travels Bev, wow you get moving early in the a.m.

Good morning
Dreary (ish) day here, I think .. still dark .. was to have been a snowy, freezing rain day but, so far nadda ..

OMG Sharon,a PG mouse .. I am on the search for peppermint oil, going to mix it in a spray bottle and spray the house and door jambs BEFORE we get the SPIDER onslaught this summer .. apparently mice and spiders hate peppermint, we'll see ... I am sore afraid of spiders ..

Safe travels Katie .. try to keep in touch ..

Betty, did Mel and Greg get home? Bet they had a good time ..

Have thought of the twins on occasion and wondered how they were doing .. sounds as though they have thrived :-)

LindaK, how's Dylan .. prayers for him fer sure ..

Debbie and Barb how are you 2 ladies doing in 'the melt'?

Susan and VS .. have a great day, I see you have rain .. lots you can do though ..
Love the Celtic Broach.

Hi to everyone, not going to mention the fact that it's Friday the 13th .. oops !!

Off to make a coffee .. DH is off to cronie breakfast, and, MAYBE to his class .. he's not quite sure, but, they miss him teaching ..

Have a SPLENDIFEROUS day

~M~

Morning early risers.

Thanks so much for all the well wishes and prayers for Dylan. Last night he started drinking and keeping his fluids down. They will give him a semi soft breakfast, and if that stays down, he will get a regular lunch.

here is hoping he keeps it down and gets to go home LindaKay.

Sharon/Katie, I've a mouse somewhere, must be smart one as I've 2 kitties who hunt.
There is but a sliver opening in kitchen cupboards and he comes through it..I put dap which hardens, ate through it, put wood filler and here is hoping he gives up.

Susan's and Bob, do enjoy your day, take in everything so you'll have mega memories..don't forget the camera Susan!

Weather will be nicer so I'm sure he'll look for a new residence and I'm ok with that.

lordy water is coming in like crazy, here's hoping those pumps work..frightens me

Katie, was it this morning you were leaving? if so safe travels

off to see what I have to do with a quilt top I made during Christmas holidays for my room, if ok will set it on the frame.

drats, just got an e-mail Joann's has 25% off entire order this weekend,big sigh, would have been the weekend to take mom to Buffalo, could take dog couldn't we?
I'll phone

Go grab Noah, and take him for a ride!

lol, you are brave saying that Lindakay..still have a roll left
I have a 20% off coupon for same so if we go next weekend I'll use it
it expires April 4th so worse scenario is I will spend my Saturday in Florida at Flea Market and Joanns

Having coffee and finishing packing and saying goodbye to furbabies.

Back soon.

katie

guess you are not sure when you will be back Katie? Best of luck with tax issues
how did paying for the land go ?

Safe travels Katie.

Marilynne - rain? We didn't get any rain - been hot and sunny here. Very springlike.
They were getting rain in GA though..........

Katie - drive safely, and take care :-)

Betty - mice don't need much room to get through.........
Yes, we'll take the camera :-) Gotta send pics to her family, too.

Yesterday I received a beautiful arrangement of flowers from my daughter :-)

Lovely flowers Susan .. VERY spring like :-)
My total incorrect supercalifragilisticexpeealadoshus Windows 8.1 weather map, showed rain in Calgary .. I thought, 'Oh Oh' ...
Glad to hear Dianne's 'weather liars are bating 100.

Dang well damp and ishy day here .. Lorna had a 'jammies day' as her stump was pitchin a HUGE fit !! Gawd, I never know how to help her when the nerve pain gets out of hand like that .. she goes into her 'zone' and deals with it .. amazing woman is she ..

I imagine Katie is well underway .. I see a Canadian tourista in Cabo San Lucas was killed when a whale crunched the small boat she was on for a snorkelling tour .. 2 others injured .. gawd, you just never think of stuff like that happening to ya when on vakay ..

Good to hear Dylan is coming along LK :-)

Can imagine Barb is sewing away, Dianne, and Debbie are reading .. Sharon gardening .. as long as everyone is happy ..

:-)

TTFN

Dylan is home. Still weak but home.

I had to take the dog to get neutered, and he is home now....so Pup sitting.

Trying to get things together here as I am falling apart. When it rains I don't get sprinkles,
I get a freaking typhoon season all at once. This has got to slow down. My sinking boat
is filling up with water way too fast.

Hopefully I can grab some rest Sunday. Have to move DS & gf tomorrow or Sunday, and Monday he gets is wisdom teeth out. Been long time coming and needs it so much.
Then I get to do lots of more medical fun stuff for me. Note sarcasm.

Hugs to you all.....
Debbie

Whats going on with you Debbie?

Debbie we're all here, you are always so supportive, must be something we can do even if it's hugging and holding your hand! Bet you have a not so happy puppy!!!!

Now aren't you the lucky one Susan, I think you celebrate your birthday like our Debbie, all month long lol

"M" sorry to hear about Lorna, one never thinks (at least not I) that those missing limbs go through so much ghost pain. How is Gord? very cold here, went next door to buy a bread and glad I wore my coat.

LindaKay how wonderful Dylan is home, he'll get spoilt I'm sure.

got the quilt on the frame, filled bobbins galore, decided to look for kids fabric in my stash, not something I have a lot of but with pushing boundaries I managed to do a bag for Audrey Rose, made one for her sister a few years ago, thought it was time seeing she keeps trying to pack her sisters bag when visiting Suzanne..don't know about you all, know I'll feel bad giving the 3 year old one and not something for the 6 year old, what to do,what to do..perhaps nothing, kids have to learn I guess

you can tell nighttime is upon us, feels colder here brrrrr
time to sit upstairs, put fireplace on and knit
so wish I could sit and do nothing, nada but not in me

Gentle reminder to 6 year old that she has a bag already and now little sis won't try to borrow it.

I know, guess I will have to pick up a little something for her..smiling, want to do something nice then it leads to another gift then other SIL has 3 granddaughters. ...hmmm guess I will be sewing a lot

Hooray for Dylan. So happy to hear he is doing much better. God speed little guy.
Debbie hope the water soon resides for you. Keep the faith. We are here for you. :)
M hope you get some relief from your " ishy " days. We are mostly rain for the last few days but i will take it over snow. I think a jammie day sounds like a good idea.
Betty love the bags !

Green! ! And monkeys :) awesome

cute monkeys! I should do something like that for my grandson :-)
Bob's DGD has a nickname - Monkey lol

Hope the weather holds for tomorrow - supposed to be 21C, and we're heading out to Banff, and Kananaskis Country........... heading out at 8am

Have a fun trip. Will be waiting for pictures.

Morning, although they say we are in minus degrees I was outside for a few minutes, refreshing but feel of spring.

Been up since 5, tempted to run to Home Depot for roll of linoleum but I'm so comfy in my jammies.

Susans enjoy your day, wish I was with you..best of Canadian landscaping for sure, well, other than my Georgian Bay. 😋

Thunder, you are in and out so quickly don't get a chance to ask how you are feeling?

Sitting here quietly, bought a roll is paper, have a template and am marking a pattern to follow with laser....thought it is time to up my game, be creative..starting with an easy one and will do it on a piece meant for me

If it turns out I think I will have Greg cut me a piece of plexi 95" long as to covenant patterns so they don't rip, think he owes me one right? Grinning

What exciting things will you all be doing today? This weekend? Me thinks we should have all gone with the Susans

Meant to say Liz and Mary if you are lurking need to know you are both feeling well

Deb and Debbie how are the puppies.

Friends are back

Betty, have you see this new video?


http://land.missouriquiltco.com/dresden-sunburst/

Actuall I did and fell in love with it, sorry now I just last week sewed all the dresdens together..you can be sure I will try it..actually I bought a fat quarter pks in beautiful greens with sparkles through them, will take photo, thought I'd Tyrone, perhaps just not today though..

Although it looks like random quilting it forms rosets, best I stick to simple first time using lazed

Sure wish I had 25k for proper computerized system

I like that design Betty! Is it continuous stitch, or do you have to start and stop?

It's fill in the blanks!!! LOL

Good Morning...
Oh gosh, So glad Dylan is feeling better...Sure hope he gets to go home soon.

OMG, somehow I lost the new thread. LOL, I just thought it was so quiet because everyone was out and about...Glorious Spring weather!! Woohoo, it hit 63 yesterday, you bet I was outside most of the day. I think today too.

Oh M, Sorry to hear about Lorna nerve, Ouch. I remember Mumma perched on the couch.
She lost both limbs to diabetes. She said the worst was when her brain said she had itchy feet! Must be all the dampness.
Yikes, I had the worst foot cramps yesterday. I finally put my winter boots on and that helped quite a bit.

Well, all the kids are off to the City for the St. Patricks day parade. DH and I are going to Grandpas later tonight. Grandpas is a Irish Pub, lots of fun. We haven't been there for years.
A friend of ours is playing in a band there, so we figure why not.

Susan's, have a fun day today! Did you do anything with the loom yet?

Hey Sharon! just wanted to say hi...You've shared such beautiful flowers and pictures.

Katie, hope your trip goes well. Safe travels.

Hands on the hips here, Where is my Sunshine??
Sure hope all is ok. I bet your out coffee in hand walking the kingdom? Our pond is still frozen.
woah, I sure hope all the fishies made it through the winter.

Oh Betty, I am sure that little one is going to love her bag.
Well as a giftie, you can always get a coloring book to put inside the bags. or even a story book, lol just an idea.

Wow, Debbie, you got a busy house, lol...Hard to keep up with your calander. I sure hope everything goes well and you get some good reports on your health.
How are things with the new pup. Hope he heals quickly.

And so Spring is definatley in the air along with rude awakening with Skunks!! Good heavens, thought the thing was in the house. Happened the other morning at about 4:30...LOL even Breenie smelled it while our guys slept right through it. Hahaha, at first I was shove DH outta bed, hahahah.

Oh my gosh...A kind of funny, Dh is a lot taller then me. I always seem to walk right up when he extended an elbow or hand or finger, whatever and inevitably get donked in the head! lol, i'm a pretty good ducker because of it...So last night, sound asleep, He rolls over and donk elbow clonked me in the forehead! haha, even he in his sleep put his hand to my head, I was shaking my head thinking - of course even in sleep I'm in the way.

Sigh, we had the police at the house again!! Seems the neighbors are not liking Jake and his friends running around having air soft fights. Good gosh, little white pellets everywhere!
lol, can't say I blame them. And these kids think it's funny to see all these pellets all over the park...pellets are bio-degradable.

Sure hope everyone has a good day and safe travels.
See you later. going to have a cup of coffee on the deck...DH going to work, hopefully it's the last Saturday for that.

Pups here are doing good! Just busy, going from one thing to the next. Papers, cardboard, bags, are more interesting than toys. And the Klaus has figured out how to get his nose under the lid on the toilet to push it up and splash in the water. Lots of fun! Not happy when they're locked in the ex-pen, but wouldn't trust them out when i'm not around. I just hope the neighbors can't hear them!

My daughter's shower is tomorrow, I'm supposed to help decorate today, but been fighting a cold all week, feeling slightly better, but I have a horrid cough. Don't know if they'll want me around with my cough, and truthfully, not sure I want to be there, either, just feeling tired and run down. But, it's nice they are including me.

Oh my Deb, no stay home, you don't want to give them all what you have, they will understand..perhaps you can wear a breathing mask to prevent germs from enjoying the shower should you feel up to it.

I just bet all their antics are worth the smiles you get from watching them

Are your neighbors close?

Get well soon

Lordy Judy,, you will have to tie Steve's hands to prevent a beating during the night, never you mind about thinking you are in his way, think it's because he is reaching out to hold you. Lol
Never been to st Patrick's parade..enjoy your night out..remember you don't want a hangover tomorrow

Mom called, she is at aunt Muriel's for the weekend, only right I invite them for lunch tomorrow I guess

So nice starting to feel better, like my old self, even the aches seem bearable, heck I did my hair, got all dressed up and nowhere to go..not true, think I might go to home depot

Morning Judy, OUCH on the hand to the head! My ex used to do that, till I smacked him back one night.
Some neighbors have nothing better to do, than call the cops on kids plating airsoft!

Perhaps they don't know what 'airsoft' is, know I didn't Judy until you explained it. Maybe if you were to print out how un=harmful it is they would understand..that being said with all the killings going on/guns etc it's just the thought of it that makes them uneasy.

well so much for laser quilting..made my pattern to wide and cant do it continuously but not all is lost, will try to fake it and next time I've a quilt for me to quilt I'll try again..was doing good on part of the quilt

I washed the quilt and pillow casings on the front and back deck, set them back out..uggg smell of urine where the visiting cats made their home under back deck, not sure what I can use to help that at this time of year, hmmm any suggestions

knew I should have covered the opening beneath the under deck storage but I so worried about any animal being out in -30 weather that I left it open for them
kind of pushing spring getting deck washed, wont take the enclosure down though until I return from Florida just incase we get a freak storm

should push myself to go into town, what do you think

Good morning,

Sammy is resting and doing ok. He is trying very hard to get along with the cats.

I think the key is, he doesn't like to share me. Franky (black cat) was sleeping on me
and Sammy sat there whining and whimpering last night. Finally he got up on the couch,
comando crawled up.....and nuzzled in. I was laughing....but hey, if it works and they all
get along. I am happy.

Judy, I get conked on the head like that too. Have had several black eyes. Was one reason
we now have a king size bed.

You know, the kids are having fun, clean fun and getting outside. When has being a kid and doing this become such a disturbance in life. They are not hurting anything, and as you said pellets are biodegradable.

I am on "rest" for the weekend. Haha Good luck with that. And then Monday DS gets wisdom teeth out.

Take care,
Debbie

Betty, place some moth balls around where you don't want kitties. It will keep them from getting in the area, and also get rid of the smell!

AWE! Debbie, they look so comfy!

Debbie, they seem as though they've a,ways been together and at ease with each other..kitties were used to Izzy but doubtful izzy played much with them because of age ..Sammy has your heart a,ready right.now WhatdidIlearn do to yourself that you need rest??


Drats, just got backdrop town, wish I'd know..bought some lest oil, thought I'd spray it on back deck, atleaststartit for now..will mark moth balls on my list..can you get nice smelling ones. Lol

Just got in from town, roll of linoleum went up $8..went to get batteries dor phones, cheaper to buy a new set..will read up on them then put painting clothes on and see where I can pain a 6'x8' piece without furries walking all over it. Don't want to move all the tables together in my craft. Room so likely do it on the floor,..there goes the back

Raining here, can visually see the snow melting..keeping close eye downstairs.
