Morning!!!!

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Morning y'all! Wonder if BJ and Don got to their hotel room yet. Oh wouldn't it be nice if we all could be there....
oh well, happy to be be doing the morning chores today. Cloudy skies and I don't expect a single drop, so watered all the plants. A one and a half hour chore.
Marion, did you see the brug co-op offered. Sis told me about it and of course, I'd be interested. If they have some nice doubles....

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

just got back from the doctor. said i have vertigo

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Hi Sis. I had vertigo once..but caused by an inner ear infection. Will you be taking more tests to make sure it's not neurological?

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

I found this Sis.. http://www.neurologychannel.com/vertigo/treatment.shtml

I lose my balance sometimes, but one of the side effects of the many meds I'm taking now.

Kel just said he'll be getting vertigo soon..if I don't quit yelling into his ears!!! Lol!!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

sis, the doctor said mine is caused by a sinuse infection. i'll live

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

So...antibiotics for the next few days? This is the time of the year when things growing can play havoc on both sinuses and allergies.
That's good news...you'll live :O

You'll be getting your stuffed envie sometimes this week. Might not be in an envie, forgive me...but treat it as one!

Okay, got 3 swaps out, (yours was mailed from PA) and 3 more to go. Sheesh, hope I don't get a dmail saying I've forgotten someone!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Tell your hubby to stop slapping you around!! Lol!!!
Those are the guineas you trade Bully for? Emm..they'd be fattened up for the gumbo pot!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

i bought these. the one i traded bully for aren't hatched yet. yeah, gumbo and tater salad. i can taste it now

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Knowing you, you'd give them names and turned them into pets. I can't kill the guineas we had, but late FIL didn't mind :(

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

named guineas always taste best! just kidding

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Look at the ones sleeping in the food bowl and sitting up!!! Ooooh sooo adorable. I can hug all of them..

We made it to Denver, just to find out the schedule has changed... we don't have to be anywhere till 5pm tomorrow evening to the BBQ at the owner's house. Then Don has one meeting on Wed, and we're flying home that night. SOOOOO.... we have a 2 day vacation courtesy of the company... and I refuse to waste it...
We're off to sunny Golden, CO (Don's idea)... on the way to Black Hawk where the casinos are... then tomorrow, we're going to climb Pikes Peak by way of a train.
I'll take lots of pictures, and post if I can. Don's computer is a little different than mine, so.... I'll have to get him to show me where the card slot is. Right now, he and his buddies are all downstairs having a beer... better go rescue them before Don gets loud or something.

see ya'll later.

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

have fun bj. i miss you

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

He he he..
I'm seeing BJ running down the stairs....with a lasso in her hands, ready to rope Don in!!
Post all you want BJ, we'll take that much needed vacation vicariously through you!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh Betty, wish you hadn't posted those pictures. Makes me want a dog again but alas can't have one here on the lake. To much red tape to go through for fencing and wouldn't want to run the risk of it getting eaten by the resident alligator. Just have to love on those pictures I guess.

Sounds like BJ is having a good time--glad when she is home and can keep us all straight again. LOL

How could you name them and then eat them Kathy. Oh my, that tears at my heartstrings!! Never had guinea before--is it good? Please don't say it tastes like chicken!!!!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

it tastes like guinea

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Thank you sweet one! I hate it when you ask someone what something taste like and you always get "like chicken"

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

chicken tastes like chicken, gator tastes like gator, frog legs taste like mud!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Just where do you get your frog legs? I didn't think they taste like mud when we used to have them. Hummmm, makes me wonder. You eat mud also? LOL

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

LOL! i eat anything-JK

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

.........except liver! No way!!!

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Got to share this with you....
the first time I came to this great country, ex-H always bring me out to fancy restaurants.
One evening, he brought me to this high falutin' Cajun restaurant called Toby's in Lafayette. On the menu, they had frog legs. I love frog legs and hadn't eaten them since I left Singapore.
Well, I ordered a dozen, couldn't understand why there'll be only 2 on the plate. Waiter raised his eyebrows, and I insisted I wanted a dozen. Ex-H convinced me to try out 2 and if I weren't full with those, to place another order.
I relented.
When the dish came...I jumped out of my chair and hollered.. "They're NOT frog legs, they're chicken legs!!!!!!"
See folks, back in South East Asia, our frog legs are the size of chicken drummettes......
Since then, I never touch any frog legs here!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

ROFLOL Jaye, but the flavor hasn't changed--just the size!

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

If you say so...I'll let you have the frog legs...I'll take beef liver anytime!!! :P

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

That is fine with me--I'll eat your legs and you can have my liver! How's that?

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Sounds like a winner to me!
Are you through with the dungeon, Marion?

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Good grief no!! Wasted all day in town with getting my glasses fixed and daughter trying to get her new contact corrected. She is having a great deal of trouble and could get a "walk in" late this afternoon. So rather than drive all the way back home, we stayed, had a nice late lunch and went to her appointment. No work today but back in their tomorrow. Some more ripping out before we start again.

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Won't you be glad when that's over...wait...then there are more that I'm sure your DS would be suggesting you should do..don't let him Marion, unless it's the garden!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

When it's done, it will be very small things then! I need to get reaquainted with my sewing machines and back into my yard more than I am doing right now. The heat slows me up now also. DD goes back to work the 28th of this month so I will be able to accomplish much more then! School starts earlier and earlier!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

I'm off to bed, really tired tonight and my eyes are still bothering me from wearing my old glasses. Rough getting old!! LOL

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Rest well Marion. ^_^

Kemp, TX(Zone 8a)

Well, Good morning to you all.
Shhhh... Don's still asleep... he imbibed a bit too much last night with his buddies. Last night we met all the other employees at Jack's Bar & Grill across the street from the hotel. We left them about 9pm still drinking. We were passed out by 9:30... and all I had was one cocktail... barely made it back to our room
Yesterday we drove up into the mountain with another couple. Stopped at the casinos in Black Hawk for a little while and then took a different route back... what a beautiful drive. Don won about the same amount as I lost... but oh well, it was fun. And the scenery was absolutely beautiful...
Today, we're taking the 10:40 train up Pike's Peak... then back by 5pm for the big tadoo at Uncle Phil's (what the employees call the owner) house for bbq.
Check back with you girls later...
