Best/Worse/What did you learn today? Everyone welcome, a thread where all are welcomed..

Verona, ON

Oh wow Deb you have a couple of chunkers - very cute chunkers Bet you are distracted working at home this week. I sure would be.

Just had my shower and have decided not to do anything else tonight except read and rest up my noggin. Didn't get as much done as I wanted outside as my head really started to ache as I bent and moved around.

Someone almost ended up with a Rotti pup this morning. Kai was terrible today. I blame the full moon.Even CHaos distanced himself from Kai. lol

Victoria Harbour, ON

Sorry to hear Kia was acting up, pup antics, bet he is quite a size..
Work will be there tomorrow IF you are feeling well enough

Plants are doing pretty good, I imagine after the next 4 days of rain than 2 of sunshine there will be quite a growth spurt

Pump still not operating, thought it beings so cold what was the sense, save some of its life.

Should make something to eat but after such a lunch I could do without.

Have to make a trip downstairs..put fireplace earlier thinking I’d go in craft room but didn’t.. did go through baby knit and crochet patterns, might try a crochet pattern, been years since I did anything, guess I can look for a crochet hook while down there.

So would like to take my garbage to the roadside tonight vs before 7 am but black birds are as big as turkeys

Victoria Harbour, ON

Morning everyone.. cold rainy day

I’ve been up since 6 , all chores done, joyce’s hot crock roast beef o with veggies, made pie, did laundry and now laying down for a bit toasty wrapped in Afghan to warm up.

All that is left to put bread rolls in oven and do potatoes.

While I’m in slumber mode I’m trying to think of past exchanges where I received an Open sided birdhouse in one of the garden swaps, I was set in for winter several years and I just came across it... front and back painted brown/maroon with mileage off I think 765 miles from me and saying from here you can see ” 7 states from here” place worn off, wondering if it was Jade??

Lazy kind off day

Betty, your garbage is secure in cans, right? Why would the black birds be a problem?

I am not sure if I am having guests this weekend or not. Kevin said something about "I thought so until 10 seconds ago, I'll let you know when I know..." Whatever that means.

LOTS to do so I best get at it. I hope to move sprinklers and water as much of the yard as I can, maybe get some chemicals applied. I need to pick up my order from Home Depot (new vinyl lattice work to be installed on posts of the patio), and the supplies to make a gate and on & on.

Winnipeg, MB(Zone 3b)

Good morning all (and I DO mean "good")
Yesterday I talked to the Canadian Head Office of our church, and the minister who counselled us on Wed is being reported. Lovely chat with the representative, Brenda. She may be doing a formal (as opposed to an informal) investigation of Deborah. I feel SO vindicated and relieved.
Bob, btw, is living at Naomi's. I thought to send him a message via the RCMP that if he ever wants to reconcile, he'll find somewhere else to live. My daughter (Michelle) advised against it.
Last night I had another epiphany - the Drama that's been a part of my life for so long is GONE. I hate drama - it's a life sucker.
I ate dinner last night (haven't been eating) caught myself singing, and had the best night's sleep in a long time, sans sleeping pills.
If Bob's thinking he's hurting me by living with her, he's being childish and I really am releasing all the toxins this has caused me.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Pat, no to garbage can, commercial garbage bag, would be too heavy for me to maneuver, just this time of year the crows are antsy. I can share my rain with you, won’t have to water gardens this week at all... were you hoping to have company this weekend? love the white plastic/vinyl lattice, so easy to keep it clean, simply hose it down.

Susan, I’m sure you will have lots of up and downs in the coming months..bob and Naomi will have to watch they don’t get asked to move from the park site, especially in such rural and small park..glad you got to rest... before long maybe a kitty to curl up to you for company. Glad you have your daughter to advise you.

Dianne, are you feeling better today, able to be outside for a tad?

Sure wish we would hear from Sharon?

Not sure, checked internet and think wording 9n back of birdhouse might say Rock City..

Don’t you love the smells coming from slow cookers? Not helping me right now, must have a bite to eat as mouth is watering.

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Finished Payton's tee shirt grad quilt. It about wore me out, it's so heavy.
I can see me coming to the end of my sewing at least for big items.

Hubby is getting ready to tackle another big project. Bless his heart I don't know what we'd do with out him. I sure don't know where he gets all his energy.

Well I am here and all is well. I had a grandson come home from college in Provo. Very depressed and anxious. H is 23 and not coping with the isolation and on line classes. He has taken a semester off and he was over yesterday and was close to normal. The Dr. has put him on medication and this last round of different medicine seems to be working. Other granddaughter had a miscarriage and then daughter with the baby and her mother, my daughter, got in a verbal argument on a phone call about politics and my daughter ended up handing up on her. The whole family is Republican but my daughter has gone off the deep end after the election and her daughter was just trying to rationalize with her. They didn't speak for several weeks but looks like fences are being mended.

I have been working in my garden a lot. My garden helper worked on the neighbor's landscape for 2 full days and made a big difference. He was paid well.

We were suppose to get rain today but the clouds just laughed at us as they blew by.

My dear neighbor, who lives down the street about houses is very hill. She has been my visiting teacher from church for years. My other visiting teacher and I went out to lunch and then got her lunch and stopped by to see her. She developed a lung problem about a year ago. Her sister just came down with the same thing. They were raised in a mining town in Nevada and they think this problem has been waiting all these years to raise it's ugly head. Her husband died about 1 year before Vern. She is 83 and said she does not care if she hits 84. She is done and just wants to take a nice long walk up into heaven. She has a grand child and a great grandchild the same age. Her last child, a girl, was born about 12 yeas after all of the other 6 children. She is one of the sweetest individuals you will ever meet.

Susan, what a mess. A marriage counselor is not suppose to have that kind of an opinion. And he is staying with her? WOW. What a dog.

Karen, that quilt is so special. What a blessing he will have foe the rest of his life. How is your daughter doing.

Dianne, the first time I fell, many years ago I broke my gasses and had a black eye cut over my eyebrow and looked like someone beat me up. I didn't fall, I actually temporarily blacked out. I was walking on the golf course and was waiting fo the sun to come up, turned to continue walking, and in slow motion watched my water bottle flying in the air as I was falling. Very first problem with Vertigo. When I went to the Dr., they asked me if I was being abused by my husband. We were both in the room and said if anyone was going to be abused it would probably be him.

My garden is spectacular. At it's very best. Down hill from here. We have a high of 62 today, wind tomorrow and Friday a high of 96. Crazy weather.

Betty I do pray you can continue having dinner on Tuesday's with your family. How is your neighbor's garden doing they planted on your property.

I just finished my taxes for our accountant. So much easier without all of Vern's medicine and medical bills to compile. I will drop them off tomorrow.

Hugs to you all. Sharon

Roses are in full bloom and geraniums are also.I feed my geraniums rose food with an insecticide because down here they cabbage worms attack the blooms. Doing this for the worms, found out the geraniums do marvelous with the rose food.

First photo is rose tree and second is trailing geranium.

Dianne, take care of your eye.
Susan, sounds like thiare working out for you. Don't let your guard down.
Sharon, sounds like you have been busy. Love those roses and geraniums.

Betty, I have been home sick this past week or so. Thought it was covid, both test were negative. I was sent to hospital for chest x-rays, found out I have fluid in my lungs and around my heart. My white blood cells are high. Going to San Antonio to see heart specialist Thursday. Not for sure what's going on. Lots of congestion and been really tired.

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Oh Linda, sure hope all is well again soon.

Geesh I should know better!! I had started my post and went back to look at Peyton's quilt. So I lost my post It's great Karen !!! How lucky he is to have you willing to do it. And I know you do it with love.

We had a 2 hour T and L event with heavy rain last night. The storm stayed over the house and lake - usually they move on. Chaos and Kai weren't fazed at all and slept right through it. A few times the house shook and they didn't move.

Susan I sure agree with Sharon don't relent - you deserve a peaceful happy life.

Linda I hope you can get some answers and feel better soon.

Just went the mile up the lane to take out my garbage. It is supposed to be out there by 7 am but I've seen it is often still there at noon. I had 8 bags - I don't take it up weekly. The workers probably groan when they see the bags at the end of our lane. Every house on the lane puts their garbage there so there is quite a stack before I add my bags. Our long standing garbage and recycle guy died suddenly about a month ago. Lots of people didn't like him but to me he was a prince of a man. Gruff on the outside and sweet as can be inside. The garbage and recycle pick up has been a mess since he passed but they will get it sorted out. Percy did the work of 3 men.

Betty did you get the storm ? I sure hope you don't have to give up your Tues dinner with Greg and Mel. Your meal always sounds so good.

Like a fool I volunteered to collect the money for the lane again this year. There is always 1 that I have to chase into Sept. I wouldn't care if they gave me a cheque post dated until Sept now.... I just don't like having to chase them.

Deb how is the puppy watch going ? I'd be working right there beside them - I know little work would get done. How's Momma doing ?

Sharon I suffer from terrible attacks of vertigo. I never had 1 until a couple of months after Warren died. They can be as severe as thaI am bed bound vomiting with a ferocious headache for 2 or 3 days or it could just be for a few hours I have to lay down. This fall was definitely not vertigo it was the TH plowing into the back of my knees as I hustled to get them outside. I didn't even have a chance to get my hands out to break the fall. It is looking much better today - it will be 2 weeks tomorrow. There is still that deep red bruising in spots and that knot sticking out of the bone over my eye.

Wanted to work outside this morning but it is raining and there will be rain for the next 8 days off and on or so the Weather Liars say. I'll start cleaning up the car port and the TH's pen for a an hour or so. I might even check my yarn supply and start an afghan.

Stay safe and well everyone.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Good morning everyone..thundering but so far no lightning but torrential rain..

Karen, job well done..I can imagine the weight of it but worth it as it will be a treasure. What project is your hubby doing?

Lindakay, that sure doesn’t sound good, glad you will be off to SAN Antonia quickly for more testing..I know how awful it is to always feel nauseated and the vomiting, well just terrible. Is Todd working or is he around should you need him?

Sharon , so glad you posted, that is a lot going on all at once, just worried you weren’t well. I can see you had your hands full. Religion and politics just don’t mix, can lose family and friends very easily. Know about grandsons feeling overwhelmed, Braedon is in Germany, Covid taking over the country, he so wants to come home but there is so much involved to get him back, the protesting the flight, order of having to spent time in Toronto hotel for god knows how many days then the final 14 day quarantine..sure hope he can get back soon. Sorry to hear about your friend, if she is in pain not a wonder she is accepting her death. Your gardens should be in garden magazines..outstanding.. I see my ground cover rises out coming out,mi have to learn how to care for them..I will check for rose food and see if that makes a difference. Heard some friends say that the nurseries that are open have few if any hanging baskets so guess none for me this year.

You asked how the little strip flower garden is doing that Marie worked up, she is very specific as to which plants she wants in it, tried giving her a few perennial but she only took a moonflower, low covering daisy.. if it ever stops raining I’ll take a photo. It is entertaining her though, her hubby cut out a few birds that the wings turn in the wind and she out 3 or 4 patio lights in the garden..she is excited about it and that is all that counts.

Susan, thinking of you, am hoping you can get out and work your gardens you so love, it will soon be peony time won’t it?

Dianne I too will look for something inside to keep me busy, pulled out my jar to do and it is dusting back bedroom, all of 5 minutes so have to come up with a project or cleaning task. Yours sounds more exciting than I could come up with! You will still have to get that knot checked out, you wouldn’t want it to be a clot sitting there undetected.

Had the problem of collecting for plowing and snow removal on Lone Pine Road when I lived on the lake and it was a battle as the guy at end of the road always felt that everyone up to him had a need to pay and seeing truck had to turn around in his yard and everyone to that point had use why should he, didn’t miss that chore when I moved.

Only had vertigo a few times and not something I’d ever want again, must be frightening on your own..

Unless they cancel May 18th I go for the amber alert noises in my head...

Deb enjoy those puppies

Pat, did it turn out you will have company?

Sharon was talking about going to nursery to pick up some shrubs, don’t know if I will go..if I keep planting there will be a good chance of having no grass to mow lol. You have to know I would come home with something

Time for coffee and a raisin bagel, not sure how I missed breakfast










thrilled I planted all of those perennials I hadn’t yet planted on Monday..this weather sure doesn’t give one a pick me up with all Covid stay at home orders...I found yesterday almost unbearable, even the kids saw I wasn’t myself..tummy was churning and I didn’t eat, kept saying maybe they should go home but they left at 8. I was asked not to make a pie next week, everyone fills themselves up eating then they take pie home to eat and are trying to diet so I’ll make applesauce, warm it up and if anyone wants ice cream they can use it as a topper.. kyle came for supper as well, he is at same address until June 1st so within my bubble..always nice chatting with him.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Hubby is taking time off for me, so he is by my side.
Sure hope your tummy is better soon.
So much under the control of this darn covid.

Verona, ON

I supposedly have a virtual meeting with a NP sometime today about my face. Kieran's mom took pictures and I sent them to the doctor's office. I've not done this before so it will be a challenge.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Lindakay, now worried if Todd took time off to be near your side should you need help, take care my friend.

Dianne, sometimes nurse practitioners are more in tune to your needs.. hope she has some answers and if not will arrange for you to be checked.

Lunch time, I will do 4 rows in my knitting pattern then do a bit of housecleaning... sad when you are even looking for clothing to wash in order to get a load together.

Want to call Home Depot and order 1 bag of cement and a slab of laminated wood that I can have cut and play at painting my backyard.

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

GOODNESS! Lots going on here in this thread!
Susan, I was appalled at the counselors lack of professionalism and am relieved to hear the head office is hearing about it. I am happy to hear you are feeling better with the whole situation. I remember crying with joy at one point during the whole divorce process. It was NEVER a decision a regretted, other than wishing I had done it sooner.
LindaK, good news about the aggressive testing and treatment, Hopefully you will find answers and relief.
Karen, that is one of the nicest Tshirt quilts I have ever seen. Grandson is lucky man!
Dianne, I hope the eye just needs time to heal but getting a professional opinion will be a relief.
I don't know yet on the status of company or not. I will just proceed as if I knew they were coming. Adam is having a heck of time with his asthma and is using an inhaler and the nebulizer. I hope to convince him to get Covid testing just in case.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Lordy Pat, all being considered maybe he should be staying home and away from people.. if he doesn’t have it with his feeling poorly could be a prime target for Covid

Victoria Harbour, ON

Calling it a night if I can unwind enough to relax and sleep.

Got a call my sister in law who had kidney transplant, Paul’s wife I worked for many a year) is hospitalized as if this afternoon, starting to have heart failure...it’s a drop her off and leave situation, you can’t go in hospital.. they are giving her blood transfusions and once she rests they are hoping they can video chat so she is less frightened.

Called greg to tell him, he said he got a call this afternoon that kyle was in the hospital, he drives town truck, was pulling a lady out of the ditch, told her to put it in neutral I believe he said and she did reverse...has to have time off I think greg said, injury to his hand.kniwing kyle he won’t take time off unless his hand/arm is useless..I’ve got a call into him him as line has been busy for an hour

Nephew by marriage is doing poorly on breathing machines(Covid) 48 hrs old so guess a choice will have to be made shortly

Big big sigh, I’m mentally tired and hopefully tomorrow will be far better

Verona, ON

The NP is sending me for a CT scan. I have to travel to Napane to have it done. It's about 30 - 40 minutes away. I just have to wait for them to call me with a time. I was impressed with the NP. I'm thinking that this is the way health care here in Ontario is going to go. It sure is a help for my GP - she has over 500 on her caseload.

I'm heading to bed early too Betty. I got myself all in a dither about the photo/NP thing but realize I need to pay more attention and learn how to use my cell. For me it is just for emergencies but I can see all my friends and neighbours use it as a primary way of keeping in touch.

Hope Kyle is not hurt badly.

LK I am glad that Todd is going with you. I really miss having Warren there as my wingman when things like today happen.

Sweet dreams everyone.

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

I've not dealt with a NP but I do know I had more trust in my Drs. PA than I did in her.
Dianne, I'm glad you are getting checked out to rule out inside damage.
Oh Linda, please keep us posted.
Betty, it sure does seem like you are getting way too much bad news. Hope that reverses itself very soon.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Morning all,

Rain and heavy grey skies out there, hopefully even if the sun doesn’t come out it will be ok to do some hoeing in the gardens.

Dianne, it will be the way of the future for us and not necessarily is it a bad thing..hope you will get the call in next few days, are you ok to drive that distance or is there someone that could accompany you? as I said yesterday anyone (I know of many) that they have confidence that their health needs were looked after. Dr. land when he was here said his caseload is over 2,000 because of recent retirement of doctors and 2 more are retiring, says he work 7 days and week and getting tired.


Lindakay, are you feeling a tad better this morning? Able to get some rest?

Karen, I went back and looked at your quilt..sure was a work of love.
When I saw it I thought how Hélène who just passed away must cherish hers..Hélène was so proud of it.

Time to make my coffee and have a raisin bagel

Winnipeg, MB(Zone 3b)

I was outside yesterday, wearing a summer top, and a neighbour noticed some bruising on my chest. No idea where it came from. I can only suppose it was from when he pushed me to the loveseat prior to him having his hands around my neck, which I remember clearly.
I phoned the police to ask them because I got charged for slapping him, but when he responded with a more violent act, he didn't.

Yesterday I not only got out into the garden, but I got my potting table from the yard, through the garden gate, down the length of the garden to the back, and put it into place! So proud of myself!! It's very heavy, solid wood. Taller than I am with a back piece. I "walked" it alongside the garden. Getting it through the garden gate was a "pinch" but I did it. Had to remove the downspout at the gate first. Yup, told a neighbour I was on the ladder to do so, so I was safe.
It's a good feeling to do what Bob said would take 2 men to do - HA! Stronger than I look!

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

Susan, I am sorry to hear that you were charged and Bob's violent act ignored, doesn't seem right, that is for sure. Did you & neighbor get a picture of the bruise? Please do so. You may need it for court.

No company for me this weekend. Kevin & Gloria were not comfortable with leaving 5 YO Karina with her grandmother over the weekend while they went out of town. Oh well, they say they will come in 2 weeks. We will see.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Sorry to hear that your situation got violent Susan. Please stay safe.
Dianne, praying you have no major damage on your eye.
Betty, sorry to hear so many around you are not doing well.
Sending prayers for all.
I spent the day in the ER. Found out I have have had pneumonia all this time. Got some news antibiotics and am back home. Going to get a good night's sleep.

Winnipeg, MB(Zone 3b)

Today I found out that Bob said he didn't lay a hand on me. I was the only agressor.
I sent a picture to the police, saying I wanted him charged, too. It was too blurry, so they sent another officer to take pictures of the bruises on my chest. I'd decided to lay charges before I found out that he lied. I was told not to make a statement until I spoke to a lawyer, so tonight I paid for a year's worth of legal advice, etc. Bob told me on Saturday that I wouldn't need a lawyer - HA!!

funny "side note".... while the officer was here, the neighbour who's teaching Naomi how to cook & sew came by, to pay me the $10 she owed me for some fabric I gave/sold her (some I gave, but one piece I sold to her). This was weeks ago. So, the funny part - she had to walk right past the police car in my driveway to get to my deck & door. I told her I had better get back to the talking to the officer. She pretended to be shocked, like she didn't realize the police were here! She'll report back to Naomi & Bob, I'm sure. I was as cheerful as all get out. So, she'll be able to tell them that I wasn't upset, worried or scared hahahaha
That lying little toe rag though........ saying he never laid a hand on me. There is no conceivable way for me to get those bruises on my chest except for someone pushing me.

Morning all, rain and weather warning of extremely high winds and possibly some snow, so will be another day in the house.

Lindakay, here is hoping the new meds clear up pneumonia, dangerous to have but thank goodness it didn’t turn out to be Covid. So Todd is making sure you rest, no sewing not playing in the gardens for awhile. Have you been seeing the kids? We’re you able to in San Antonio yesterday for quick talk?

Pat how are your projects going or were you waiting for your son this weekend?

It’s all so very sad Susan that the situation has now gone beyond trying to work things out between you.. doesn’t sound like you both can try and mend fences. Have you considered moving closer to your daughter? Know you rely on her for guidance.

Deb, Sharon is on her way with Hope to have her inseminated with frozen stern, with only getting I or 2 pups last few times she bred her females she says that likely unless she gets a healthy litter that will be the last she breeds.

Dianne did you get an appointment yet? Seeing a few flurries and winds just started..hope not same in your region.

Liz, if you drop in how I’ve been thinking of you and wonder how you are doing re work and Covid.

Karen what projects are you undertaking or are you just enjoying good weather on your porch and watching your pretties bloom

While having coffee I knit a few rows and blanket I’m doing for baby, won’t be overly large, more of a keepsake because I will machine embroider his name,weight,birthdate on it when he is born

Kyle’s day off so likely he will not drop in, his hand Mel said looks terrible..catching it in the winch could have been so much worse ... my SIL Wilena is resting well, still checking options, she is not able to undergo an operation of any sorts so maybe it’s palatine care next.. Phil is still in an induced coma on breathing machine, talk of maybe taking him off.. big sigh

Well I guess I will make the long trip to craft room this morning..someone asked me if I’d make a pillow for their trailer, might see if I have enough drop cloth to do so

There is no way I want that lying manipulative couple have this place.
I will sell it first. Not sure how that ca happen, because it's "common property" even though I bought it, because we've lived in it together for so many years.
Betty - the police suggested that I stay at my daughter's for a bit, but now we can't go between province's so, no, I can't go see her, let alone move closer.

Forgot about inter province lockdown,

You can seek a part of his pension to help you out? I don’t know much but know different married or common law can get a percentage of pension and amount based on years being together.

I absolutely couldn’t live in same park, small park as well, not many sites within right?

Life sure can throw some curves.

Trying to see if I want to start a new task or stay in nighty doing whatever I see needs done lol

Winnipeg, MB(Zone 3b)

There are 28 mobiles in the Park. They're on one end, and I'm at the other and across the street. It would be better if they were the same side and then all visual would be blocked, but it is what it is.. As long as they keep out of my hair, I've decided I'm tougher than they think. I did a lot of grieving over a lost (to her) relationship. The head office minister said it sounds to her like a cycle of abuse from him. I'm going to talk to the law firm today, and see what they have to say.

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

Susan, I am so sorry this is such an ugly mess. At least now you KNOW he cannot be trusted, PERIOD. You might need to remind yourself of that occasionally. When we ourselves are trustworthy, sometimes it's hard to remember someone else is NOT.

Adam and Andrea only have MY truck that is working, they came to town to file more legal papers against her Ex and in the process she was using my computer & printer. She walked from sewing room into hall and tripped over the one step up. The wrist hit the wall, it's swelling and hurts like heck. She think she has broken it. I guess we have an ER visit to manage somehow today.

Adam has work, she can't drive now. Looks like I will be making a trip to Wooten today to take her back, pick up the kids from school & get her back before problems with the dogs in their house! (I do NOT need a REMINDER AGAIN why I do NOT want dogs without a doggie door & fenced yard).

Their Durango won't start (they have battery being tested), they can't find a replacement headlight for the hundi (that she broke when she hit the 3rd deer in less than 6 months). . Those are just the 2 vehicles that have been working until recently.

No, I won't use Adam's help with anything this weekend. If my SisIL is available, she and I might work on some stuff together. I got the lawn chair spray painted bright pink yesterday. They turned out cute, they are shaped metal so no fabric cushions and can be left out in the weather. When I want to dress them up, I likely will add a throw pillow.

northeast, IL(Zone 5a)

Last day of working from home. It's been really nice, but, I think I can safely leave mom and pups for half a day. I'll run home at lunch time to check, and let the big dogs out.
Wishing Sharon luck with her breeding. This was my first try with frozen, and I only got two, hope she will do better with this litter. What is the average litter size for her? Most Afghan litters seem to average in the 5-7 pups range.
Glad they got a diagnosis on your problem, LK. Hope they can knock the pneumonia out of you quickly.
Susan, no words at all, for what you're going through. Just prayers for strength for you.
Pups are starting to get darker pigmentation on their noses and the pads of their feet. Love these boys!

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

Have you named the rascals?

northeast, IL(Zone 5a)

No names, yet. They're just "the boys", or "the babies". Working on names, trying to come up with a theme for their registered names. My last litter were "stars" Written in the Stars, When Stars Align, Swinging On a Star, When Stars Collide. My litter before that was my 'prayer" litter. Livin' On A Prayer, Poems Prayers & Promises. Before that "Wings", On the Wings of Love, On a Wing and A Prayer.

I've got a long list of movie titles, song titles, lyrics, book titles, sayings, I just haven't quite found the right ones for these two.

Winnipeg, MB(Zone 3b)

This has been a day of lab test, Dr phone call, lawyer office phone call, police coming by because Bob came by with the repaired RV and his car, expecting to live in the RV in our driveway. The officer told him "no", so he's moved the car & RV to her driveway & will plug in there. siiiiigh, idiot
Dr is going to follow up with Bob at another visit. He's NOW taking it seriously about Bob's mental health re: possible dementia - SUCH a change in him...........

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

Yes, takes a lot of nerve to think he's going to put his car & RV in YOUR parking place at home!! Goodness,...

Verona, ON

Good morning. 've been up since 4 am.

Still waiting for an appointment for the CT.

Had to get the plumper in to try and fix the upstairs toilet. We're thinking Kai may have dropped a toy or a tartar buster in there. Perry could not get anything to budge. He has to take the toilet off so I decided to have 1 of those elevated toilets put in. Maybe Mon or Tues. It's a good thing I have a second bathroom.

Susan what the h was he thinking ?

So what's everybody up to this weekend ?

Dianne, hope you get your appointment soon.
Susan, community property means anything sold has to be split. Praying you can work things out.
