Today was a sampler of Spring. Made it to the low 60's, and was nicely sunny. Saw two young cardinals, a robin, and a crocus in bloom. Tomorrow it goes away, but hopefully it will be back soon.

Amy · March 04, 2024, 06:19:35 AM

Good morning..

Starting out at 34° and also heading for the 60's.

We are heading to the city to meet up with Bri , picking a few things up and heading back home.

Rick ,yesterday I saw Red Winged blackbirds here!! No robins as of yet though.
I would think the sap is soon going to start with this weather, hope they have a better year than last.

Better shake a leg and get my city duds on...

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · March 04, 2024, 08:10:32 AM

Good Morning Everyfriend! We're heading into the 60s here too. supposed to reach a high of 65! I'd say Spring is on the way but....

Cooper is here. we had a walk and he had his breakfast and we played a bit. Now he's taking a nap. i have to call a plumber today. I have a clog and I've done everything I know to do and only got half of it removed. It drains but s-l-o-w!

I wish you all a good day better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow!

Good Morning! All is well here. Partly sunny and partly cloudy. Temperatures are good...going up in the 6o's this afternoon. ...maybe 70.

Have a good day.

Merry March Monday!

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. The year didn't start out well; Spirit and Mind (most of the time ) were fine but Body wasn't! Both sides of my neck from my ears down to my elbows were painful and diagnosis was osteoarthritis and Fibromyalgia. Both hands were affected, too.

Still not 100% better (except for hands- which are 98% okay) but I can take care of necessities and am finally able to type on the computer. Home Health care was contacted by doctor last week and I've had the first "evaluation". Now waiting for physical therapist to contact me about coming for p.t.
Fortunately, my lab reports were all within normal range last week except Sodium, which was Low. Doctor said "Eat more salt". (Who gets told that nowadays?)

Oklahoma wildfires burned more than a million acres across western counties of the state but none were close enough to OKC to cause a problem. Our weather has bounced from below freezing to the 80's - which I'm sure didn't help my Squeaks/Creaks.

I've spent most of the time reading in the recliner - including your posts.

Janie, I'll either message or e-mail you about visiting while you're here.

Have a Wonderful Day, Everyfriend!

JaneS · March 04, 2024, 08:58:01 PM

we;;. I might not be heading for Okla next week. GD Courtney was heading there to switch cars with her mother before moving to Indiana to start her post graduate teaching course. First her car quit in the middle of the street and while it was still in the repair shop, her mother was rear ended at a red light and was rammed into the car ahead of her. so the car Courtney was going to drive there cant be trusted and the one she was going to trade it for will be in service for at least 3 weeks. Kind of cancels my plans. But at least no one was hurt in the accident!

CALLIE, I'm happy to hear you are feeling better but I guess I won't be able to tell you that in person in the near future. Sorry about that!

Now I'll have to start UNpacking and putting everything I was taking with me back where it belongs. Maybe we can work it out for later in the year! I really NEED a visit with my Great Grandkids!

Right now the haystack is calling! I'll be answering it's call very soon. And tomorrow I get the stitches out of my finger. we'll see how that works out! I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow. come by for a visit when you can!

Amy · March 05, 2024, 07:05:41 AM

Good morning.

Records were made yesterday with the temps in many places. Today is another warm one,not as warm as yesterday but goig to the 60's and rain. Rain is welcomed for the wells and land as we didn't get a lot of snow here.

Yesterday went well, met with the kids ,picked up supplies ,got Babes nails done and then headed home. Trip trip tires me out, rather do a days work! Today we get to stay home but on the road back to the city. Kyle finally has an appointment with a surgeon!! Only took a year to get it but he does have one.so it is xrays first then to the Dr.

Jane, I am sorry you don't get to go vivit but oh so thankful no one got hurt!!! She will /may be sore from the hit ,more so today. Talk with David said he was in NC but heading your way and said to tell you he is going to wave on his way by.

Callie, good to see your post. Not nice when our bodies have a mind of their own!

Rick, poor Kyle thought I was losing it yesterday when I yelled "Look look look". We don't have any robins yet but in the city I saw not one but two!!! Then we saw a flock of geese heading north!! Could Spring be close by??

Phyllis, good to see your post! I made another batch of your pudding.....something that tops the meal ,not sweet but nice after a meal.

Patricia, how are things your way? The west is getting smothered in snow , any come your way?

Best try and look alive....

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

RAMMEL · March 05, 2024, 09:25:34 AM

Another surprise this morning. Even though it is raining fairly steady, my friendly robin was at the front porch. It remembered from last year that raisins were available here. If it were sunny I bet there would be two of them. They know to chirp to let me know where they are - and waiting for the handout.

JaneS · March 05, 2024, 09:55:54 AM

Good Morning Everyfriend! I'm waiting for Cathy to pick me up to go get the stitches out of my finger. Not sure I'm ready for that yet but we shall see!

We have a rainy day here too, but the temp is up in the 40s and 50s f0r the day Feels like Spring to me! I'll take it!!

I'm starting to put all my stuff away and will return cathy's suitcases today oh wekk, tomorrow's another day!

AMY sounds like you got a lot done yesterday! Good for you!!

Gotta go! Enjoy your day Everyfriend!!

CallieOK · March 05, 2024, 11:12:27 AM

Janie, so sorry to hear that your trip to Oklahoma was cancelled. Hope everyone is okay and cars get straightened out ASAP.

Son is coming to take me to get hair done and do some errands.

Can't get into Facebook and having issues with fixing it! Always something!!!!!

Wishing Everyfriend Everywhere an Enjoyable Day.

patricia19 · March 05, 2024, 01:51:11 PM

Good morning from the Interior, where it's plus eighteen and a promise of snow.

I spent some time out yesterday paying bills, and shopping with friends for groceries and lunch out.

Today, hopefully I will receive two packages, one a second attempted delivery

Tomereader1 · March 05, 2024, 03:12:59 PM

Saw a message this AM that Facebook was DOWN in many places, so not your fault that you couldn't get in.

JaneS · March 05, 2024, 08:36:00 PM

Your print size is adjustable - by you. Assuming you are using a PC, hold down the CTRL key and hit the + or -. Or, hold CTRL down and scroll up or down.

Amy · March 06, 2024, 06:15:42 AM

Good morning..

The past two days have put a run on the snow and today will be no different.

Got a lot done yesterday , the new asparaus wrapped in bacon was tasty for supper.
We are off to the city again...first hospital for xrays then find the Dr down in the city.

Jane, did the stitches tickle when they came out? I took mine out and it tickled when I pulled them out.

Patricia, hope your packages finally came through!!

Rick, it is nice when feathered friends remember to come back. I am still waiting on Drop Wing but I have a feeling I won't be seeing him.
Yesterday I could hear geese on the lake so they are flying back.

Better get my city duds on....

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · March 06, 2024, 06:50:04 AM

Good Morning Everyfriend. I'm ready and waiting for Cooper's arrival. The weather will be in the 40s and 50s today and cloudy. Yesterday I saw 5 robins on our late morning walk and heard lots of chirping birdies! Do you think Spring might be sneaking up on us?

RICK, thanks for the info on type size. I'll give it a try.

AMY, it actually kind of hurt when they took out the stitches.she said that was because they were really dry. I still have a bandage on it and i'm still not supposed to use it. I wish you a successful trip to the city and a safe trip home.

I wish Everyfriend a good day. Stop by and share it with us.

JaneS · March 06, 2024, 01:33:35 PM

WHERE IS EVERYONE??

patricia19 · March 06, 2024, 03:00:26 PM

Good late morning from an Interior at fifteen degrees with light snow.

I have not slept well the past few nights with a lot on my mind. I'd literally crash around nine pm and then be wide awake again at midnight or one. I wouldn't be able to sleep again until three or four in the morning, and today I don't remember the alarm going off. Luckily, I have my meet and greets to save me from sleeping further and causing an unwelcome new habit.

Jane, I'm with you on stitches, I've never liked them. Enjoy your day with Cooper.

No birds or sins of spring here, as March is normally our snowiest month and April is usually when more signs of spring happen. We used to be snowless with green grass and blooms by Easter, but that hasn't happened for some years.

Amy, I'm sure you and Kyle are back home again with our four-hour time difference and I hope everything went well, and you're happily home once more.

Yes, my errant package did arrive yesterday along with two others and two that came early rather than today. I now have glass containers to replace the older plastic.

I received my new trekking poles and other odds and ends. Now time for re-arranging, discarding, donating and trashing.

Amy · March 07, 2024, 06:33:41 AM

Good morning..

Going to be a beautiful day here!! Temp is to climb to almost 50 and we are NOT on the highway. That makes for an awesome day!!

Yesterday went well, in and out before appointment time at one but not so lucky at the other one. Got to chat with others there so time went by quick. Picked up butter that was on sale for home.

This computer is acting up , a trip to my fellow that makes it better is in store.

Not doing a lot today..may sew.

Patricia ,great that you finally received all your items!!

Jane, although we haven't had a bad winter, actually it has been a very easy one, I am more than ready for Spring. Out west they are really getting the snow to the point of shutting down the highways.

Better go while I do have a post to post..will go get my laptop ,has to be better than this!!

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · March 07, 2024, 06:45:41 AM

G00d Morning PATRICIA and AMY and anyone else who shows up today. This will be a shortie because I have a dr appt and its about a 45 minute drive away at 9 am. I need to get a shower and get dressed and be ready when cathy stops by to pick me up around 8.

I wish you all a good day. Hope alls well today PATRICIA and you enjoy yours, AMY. I'll be back later.

patricia19 · March 07, 2024, 01:32:38 PM

Good late morning from the Interior at fourteen degrees and I'm having another late start. Morning chores finished, Farrah fed and meet and greets done for the day. So, here I am at the computer with a fresh cup of coffee and ready to see what's going on today.

Amy, I hope your computer settles down and flies right as my dad used to say and Jane, hoping your appointment and any errands go well for you.

And hello to all the rest, lurkers and those coming later.

Amy · March 07, 2024, 02:32:18 PM

All most 50°!!!

Took my pc in to get looked at and now have the laptop that needs up dating and I am not a fan of using but....it does keep me connected.

Good ol leftovers for supper tonight.... I think I like them better the second time around.

Laundry done and not much else..oh well.....always another day..

/b]

JaneS · March 07, 2024, 03:17:28 PM

We had an uneventful drivto and from the drs office. And we both had good visits wit her. She's not just a good dr, she's also a good friend! when daughter Christy lived in that area she worked in this drs office and thats how we became patients and friends.

I also have completed some jobs around her and the dishwasher is running. I'll have those to put away later. And the trash can is out for pickup tomorrow. I'm on a "call-for-pickup" system and tomorrow is my day.

If anyone is peeking in and not talking...HELLO! And AMY and PATRICIA enjoy the rest of your day

Amy · March 07, 2024, 03:30:52 PM

Jane, do you have wild leeks growing in the woods there?

patricia19 · March 07, 2024, 04:17:46 PM

I'm back again, I just read an interesting article about growing tomatoes indoors, which would be nice except this place would be too drafty.

https://tinyurl.com/ytrtbukz

Just a reminder that this Sunday, to put your clocks forward, I just received a note about it.

Glad to hear everyone is back home again.

JaneS · March 07, 2024, 09:15:24 PM

Jststopping by for a quick.....

GOOD NIGHT EVERYFRIEND!

I,mbeat right down to my sox and that's bad because I'm not wearing any!

AMY/ I don't know if we have wild leeks in the woods. I'll have to check that out.

Amy · March 08, 2024, 06:53:15 AM

Good morning

Starting off at 18 ° and heading into the 50's.
Returning an item and picking up a better one this morning after meeting with friends for tea/coffee. Most of our snow is now gone. Kyle called me to come look out the backdoor. I thought I was seeing a crow but on closer look there was raven!! He/she was gathering dog hair that I had left out for the birds for nesting material. While raven was doing this crows were dive bombing his and squawking at him.

Patricia, we are looking forward to springing ahead with the clocks!!

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · March 08, 2024, 08:16:34 AM

Good Morning, AMY and anyone else who shows up. Cooper has arrived, had his first walk and his breakfast. I've stripped my bed and the mattress pad is in the washer and the sheets are waiting by the washer for their turn. This day is on the way and so far it's cloudy out there and only 36 degrees. it's supposed to get up to 58 degrees later today but will remain cloudy.

Changing the bed and looking after Cooper are my only plans for the day today but plans do change!

AMY, I checked it out and there are wild leeks in the woods around here. The State Parks allow people to use them but they are only allowed to harvest them for their own use. Funny! I never knew this before!!!

The washer is spinning so I guess I better get ready to put the mattress pad in the dryer and get on with my chores.

I wish you all a good day. If you peek in here, please share a few words with us. We miss you!!!!
