good morning all
SPRITELY!!!!!!!!
*bounce bounce bounce* I have been playing for half an hour and already down to only 57 :-)
stiddie!!!!!!!!!! *HUGS* how are you, darling?
oh wow, nice going there
I would be better if the air quality weren't so bad -- cybernan and bugsaw and jillibus and flosey have sent their fire-smoke all the way down to us! We're 300+ miles away!!! ;-)
how are you? no allergies due to smoke I hope?
mkg, how are you doing with the ou's?
oh dear :( *creating a clean-air-bubble around stiddie*
I am fine. No allergies, no smoke ;)
hiya peach *hug* How are you?
thanks sprite *breathing lovely clean air again*
hmmm, what fire smoke??? have not seen a thing - or even a scent!!
hey peach
Hey there, sprite!!!
And Stidmama!!!
oooh -- I am glad flosey, was afraid it was also wafting over your lovely island! (((hugs)))
Hi sptite. Some days are diamonds and some are freaking rocks. LOL Today was somewhere in between. How about you?
sorry to hear that though Stid, can be quite oppressive
I am fine, peach, life is good atm. You are in my daily prayers. Glad you get to collect some diamond days!
Life is good, peach -- looking forward to my fourth year teaching third graders (we start in four weeks).
and I am suddenly just falling over from sleepiness. *sad mama look* I want to stay up and play, but ... I think I have to do some adulting tomorrow... ((((((hugs all)))))) Tom and I made blueberry cakes this evening, so will leave some in the PB in case they are needed. Have a wonderful day/evening all! *poof*
sleep well, stiddie. Lovely to have seen you. *hugs*
hugs Stid, good to hear from you
Thanks so much, spite. I don't hear much from anyone....in a way that is not really a bad thing and in another way it is. I've turned it over to God. Just when I think I'm through crying ....I find that I'm not. Thank you for all the prayers.
I often find it is the only thing we can do... turn it over to God. May He be with you every step of the way (and He is).
Bless you, sprite.
I think I'll watch TV for awhile....I'll try to come back later.
blessings, peach, and *hugs*
did you have a good day today, flosey?
yes thanks Sprite - a fairly quiet, relaxed day
sounds good to me
sometimes hard to come by!! but very peaceful
so very true. Days to treasure when they occur.
coffeetime. Back soon
sounds good Sprite, think I'll stop for a tea break - but brb
back, armed with coffee
lol, and me with tea
:)
and a pear cider for me... hugs and kisses sprite and flosey
oooooh, that sounds good Rose
rose! *hugs* my dear friend. How was your day? And cheers :)
have never had pear cider - only apple
they have both here now in the grocery store. I prefer the crisp apple, but the pear is good too.
sprite, you would have been amazed. i helped to cater for a funeral at our church, with 90 attendees. i was almost running and on my feet for nearly 2 hours non-stop. no pain except for a spasm in lower back which disappeared with valium.
omg rose, that is amazing! Looks like the journey was really good for you. And the right combination of infusions and a maintenance dose of endone.
wow Rose, good for you
everyone who sees me for the first time in a while is stunned and say how well i look.
am so happy for you, darling. You deserve it so much to feel good and be able to do stuff.
and i feel good too. i am actually eating breakfast everyday.... plain greek yoghurt and a serve of fresh fruit salad.
aha, the trip was good for you Rose
breakfast is so important. You are inspiring, rose. I will try harder.
that's a good breakfast
i wish and pray for the same for you sprite.
thanks darling. I can't complain, life is good.
and now FW - and off to bed, see you all tomorrow - same time............
i cut up a container of fresh fruit, enough for 4 days, and add a small amount of banana when i serve it. i find it 'sticks' to my ribs, so to speak
wtg flosey!!!!!!! Sleep well, dear lady.
WTG FLOSEY!! sweet dreams dear
ty Sprite
sounds good, rose
oh rose, I made myself a prayer booklet. Was losing track of the people I want to pray for and thought, why not write them down. Feels so good :)
wonderful idea sprite. i have our pew sheet to help, then add others i know of....
you and Don are right below my family and sister :)
bless you sweetie. thanx for that. you know what? i truly believe the prayers of our church helped to keep us safe while we were away.
I have no doubt of that. We cannot travel the world without extra protection :)
oh, guilty pleasure... one of the books we use in OA is the actualy Big Book from the AA... so I sometimes pray to the Big Guy from the Big Book...
actual*
like it honey
He does too, grin. The OA and also our talks about prayer have helped me to find a way to ask Him for things to help me with, in stead of only thanking him. I have a strong feeling He is telling me : "Well FINALLY, dear girl. Now let Me."
fireflies
WTG SPRITE!!
LOLLL, HONEY. sorry not shouting, cheering loudly.
*grins*
*holding sprite in one of our hugs*
we really stocked up on hugs, didn't we :)
yeahh !!
*hugs* for you and Don, darling. Have a lovely evening and a peaceful night.
"hugs" for you and Rob. hope you have a great day honey

Hello?

Good morning, Dose.
It's vry foggy out this AM, big t'storm last night
Hi Bichon. It is extremely hot and humid here, hotter and for longer than in any of the previous 18 years.
... a foggy morning by the water ... I'll take it ... unless a car is involved
Welcome to the new earth. We broke it
Two yearts without hard frost and much less snow
And I'm in the foothills of the Alps
The good news is that the blackberries are bigger and sweeter than in past years
there you go, lookin' on the bright side
... there's always a bright side somewhere
snap, you two!
Good morning all...stats for the J please?
ja 4/9
... hey ... we're both on the eastern half of North America which is about the only place in the world which isn't significantly warmer ... and we can still see it happening

... a newfoundland expression ... stay where you're at 'til I come where you're xx
yrvw
I've actually been in Newfoundland, at least for 2 nights in Gander

Charter airline went on strike and we were on our way back from a summer in Europe with an 8-month old baby and zero $$

hi Scrabs
... then you'd fit right in in Newfoundland at that time
Not a word. Hi kids. I was lurking for a while then came back now to see all of you.
That baby is now 53!
Phantom = poetess.
... at that time Newfoundland included lots of babies and no money ... ... but then they found oil
And now I have to get ready for work. ENjoy the day.
... and you too Scrabs
I didn't know that. I do remember that it seemed very drab, especially coming back from Paris
Why lots of babies?
... you fished all summer and then had nothing better to do in the winter ...
keeping warm, I guess.
... the babies all moved out to Alberta to work the oil fields there ... ... and then moved back in the 90s when the Hibernia field came in
... you'd be right there
I'll Google it
May I have st*** for any u, pls?
... Newfoundland was the place which the 20th century forgot ... didn't find it until the very end ... ...
I miss fishing!
... ut4/5 ... sounds like the state
thank you
... this was cod fishing on the Grand Banks ... but you can't do that because the Spanish and Portuguese overfished in an destroyed the stock ... been banned for 30 years now and the stocks still haven't shown much sign of recovering ... ... but they found oil ... and all's right with the world
I have to lie down, nodding off as I sit here
Bye
... see ya
... ah well ... two thirds done ... but must be off ... ... sunny skies and luck to all

I used to babble at work before I retired
that was one thing about being a teacher, you don't ever have time to do babble during the day at school
one of the delights about being retired
let's hear about the joys of retirement
how long of a list can i post?
Now that I'm retired there not need for a weekend. It's a weekend every day
tennis in the morning, piano duets in the afternoon.
usually still get up early to get to things - but it is really nice to be able to have other days (like this morning) when I could sleep in
I'm usually up by 7, but I don't do anything else but look at Babble, feed dog, walk dog
If the Silver Surfer and Iron Man team up, they'd be alloys.
