It's waining in Wichita.... and feels SO good!  Got e-mail this morning that "my case" has been handed over to someone else. Will see how this works out, don't feel like this can go on much longer or they might have to plant me. Guess some people never outgrow being a bully. Hopefully the roof won't leak until the new one gets put on. not concerned about the "roof-roof" but all those vents & things that may have been damaged. Water can follow a pipe all across the house in the attic & show up on a ceiling anywhere. 

All 3 cats had their breakfast & glad to be inside sleeping. Miss Callie has been subdued ever since we got back from CO. She acts almost afraid of me again, hesitates about coming inside. She is hiding/sleeping under the bench in front of the fireplace, hidden behind a stack of canvas panels I ordered last week. Bless her heart, I know she knows she is making me feel bad. She is one smart cookie & knows how to control us all.

Chilling out today, may get a nap in & certainly need to clean house. That darn floor in the kitchen feels sticky this morning... guess humidity is bringing the Coke out of the wood, it'll have to be scrubbed again. Better go get my work clothes on, talking isn't going to get the jobs done.

Got to thinking about how crazy the world has become last night.... maybe if everyone put a smile on their face & said "Hi" to everyone they meet, people wouldn't feel so alone and angry all the time. If we all work on our little corner of the world maybe it will catch on, you think? I can't understand why people will kill unless they are so broken & sad inside they don't know how to be loved. Anyway, you can see where my mind was instead of sleeping sound! Have a great day!

A good Thursday HELLO to EVERYFRIEND!

SHIRLEY, I am sorry you had to turn off the lights.....I planned to and said I did in my post that is not here....I was really sleepy and probably forgot to hit post....I can not guarantee anything as I have remained on Eastern time and find myself ready for bed at 7 PM MDT!  Oh my, your on going problems with your roof!  I sure hope you do not have any leaks also!  I read the story about f your broken window....oh my, that is terrible.  Sure glad you were not in the car at the time. 

Anyway, we made it home safe and sound....had to get an Uber to bring us home.  My Kitty, Smokey was beside himself he was SO HAPPY to see us.  He never meows.....but has started just when we get home from being away and he just keeps crying until he is horse! Not to mention he bugged me all night long as he wanted to make sure I knew he still loves me🥰🥰

We have been on the run trying to get caught up with things.  Kurt and the boys were going to fly to Denver on Friday, so we had to take his vehicle in, the one that he left parked here in our driveway as he was returning so soon, to the dealership for a air bag recall.  Decided to have the oil changed at the same time...... well to make a long story short, they just called to tell us the car was ready, BUT OF COURSE they did not get the airbags changed out as they did not have the parts!  Now he made this appointment a good month ago!  Now Kurt is not going to come as both of the boys are sick.  Things change drastically in our lives it always seems.

The kiddos started back to school here yesterday, so we are on the hook to pick Matt up every day from football practice and take him home.  Michele still has another month of chemo, then she will have to do some radiation, so not sure how long this will be our weekly job.  Matt's school is about half way between his home and our home.  He is a bus student.  Of course Kate has to be taken to dance and picked up as well, at the same time, so mama, dad and friends are taking care of that.  Oh this busy life we lead! 

I know I commented on several other things in my post last night, but I do not remember now.  Will come back later if I figure out what they were. 

GLORIA, I, too, wish we could have met up.  If we had rented a car we could have, or I know Kurt would have driven us down, but both grandsons had day camp the second week we were there and it kept us from being able to leave the are on the week days.  One day, I hope we can still meet up as I would love to meet you in person❣️

CAROL, happy yo read about your grands being with you.  I do hope Don's hand is healing well..  we had breakfast on the way back from taking the car to the dealership.  Went to a cute place called Three Little Griddles on Dry Creek, East of 25.  I had Ebelsckivers.... Danish pancakes with lemon curd, and they were delicious.   

Take care....

Jenny
 

Jenny, you are one of the busiest people I know with your family.  I think I would if I could, but with no car, no can do.

Kendrick often comes in to check on me and I usually say he is checking to see that I am still here.  I know he loves me because he likes to be in the same room I am in.  He is not a cuddly cat, so he doesn't jump up to be on my lap, but he's in the vicinity. 

Mary Ann

Mary Ann, that's the way Tom is, in whatever room I am in & if I happen to lay down, he will be behind my legs in no time. He acts like it embarrasses him when I scoop down & pick him up & squeeze (almost too heavy), but as soon as I put him down he is rubbing my legs & purring very loud. I bought him a new hair brush this past week, he likes the bristle ones best. He will roll over & over & try to brush himself if I quit. If I put the brush on the floor he will lay down & rub his chin on it for more. 

Jenn, is Michele doing better?  I hope the chemo is really helping and there is a happy end. My brother-in-law is now 91 and his "torture" (chemo) was 30 years ago, so prayers she is one of the lucky ones. They are lucky to all have you & Bob to fill in the gaps.

Question for you, since my cats are feral I have to leave Callie outside when I travel, did you have someone checking on Smokey while you were gone?  Andy leaves his cats home & they are okay, but his son goes by to check on them every so often. They never go outside. That would be so nice, but Callie would tear the house apart in her need to get out.

Oh, I was in the car when that window exploded, still can't believe I didn't grab the phone & take video of the glass pulverizing the stages it did. Can't praise Safelite enough for their repair job. Those guys are good & did their job thoroughly, you'd have been proud of the quality of their work, took pride in their jobs. Funny how it is a surprise & feeling of "good old days" when someone does a job well.

It was cloudy most of the day, rainy this morning & we needed it so badly, the cool air was so welcome. It is starting to get sticky now, sun is out & not much breeze. Bet the mosquitoes will be swarming out tonight. I need to go put the dumpster out by the street, thought I'd get around to cutting off some dead foliage but didn't.

Hope all's well with every friend today, I know it's only August but am wishing the summer months GONE!  Jenn & Carol, are they predicting a pretty fall in CO?  I would love to make another trip mid to late Sept, have not checked to see when the campgrounds close.

I have a trip to MO planned in Oct, going to take a stack of old school books back to the Historical Society museum where my parents went to school.  The house where the museum is located was built by my mother's uncle, same builder that made this walnut hutch I have, for HIS mother. (They don't get that!)  Some of the books have my gr-mother's name in, she was born in 1871, 4 or 5 McGuffies & even a couple of poetry books given to my father as "rewards for scholarship" written inside. He was born in 1898 & when visiting his mother at a nursing home one time, he discovered the teacher that gave him the books was living there & had me come meet her. I realize the books do have a dollar value but am sure Dad would be proud to have them for everyone to see when they visit the museum. I don't think any of the young people today would pack them from place to place as they move.

MARY ANN, my kitty has never been that much of a cat that need holding and on your lap, but he sure is now.  He follows me around like a dog....if I leave the room, in no time here he comes to check on me!  And now since we have been home he is jumping on m lap as soon as I sit down....  I think he missed is while we were gone!

SHIRLEY, I am so sorry I forgot you were in the car when the thing exploded......my brain is non functioning!  We leave Smokey at home.  We put out two additional litter boxes and leave a couple more dishes of dry cat food and water around.  Son Brian comes b6 every couple of days to check on him and clean his litter boxes out.....and gives him some of his special wet food that he gets every morning when we are here and he does just fine.  Funny though, when we came in the house I called and called him.....he did not come and then all of a sudden I heard him crying out like crazy and here he came....I do not know what kept him from coming for so long.....he cried, (meowed)  so much he finally became very hoarse.......for the first year or two we had him I never heard him ever meow.....and now he only does it when we get home from being away.  He is a totally indoor cat.  Right now I can hardly type as he insists on being on my lap and right in front of my iPad screen.  I do not know if they are expecting a early fall or not here.....I will try to be more aware of the predictions and will let you know.   Glad that Safelite did such a good job....that is a rarity for someone to care about their work in these days.  Michele is holding her own.......st8ll so run down from the chemo.....we just hope and pray she will be OK.

BEVERLY , HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your daughter.....God bless her as she starts down the road to hopefully beating cancers butt! 

I am late....gotta go! 

Well, one thing led to another today and I got a lot of odds and ends done but nothing major.  I can actually see some clean places that have been accumulating "stuff".  I'm tired so I know I was busy.

If I don't comment on everything everyone says, please forgive me.  I love reading what you've all been doing and I hang on your every word.  I would miss it if you didn't post. 

The doggies and I have been taking walks.  They seem to enjoy it and I guess it's good for me, too.  I try to do it early before it gets hot or just before it starts to get dark so it's cooler.  Sometimes they're not ready to go in when we get back so we just hang out in the yard.  All I have to do is pick up the leashes and both tails wag so hard I'm afraid they'll go flying off!

I'll take care of the lights tonight and I'll wash up the last of the coke glasses and coffee cups.  I'll also get the coffee pot ready for tomorrow and fill the tea kettle and set it on the stove.  Don't worry about anything.  Just sleep peacefully!

Long time no see.  I'm OK.  But my MAC is kind of  "poor pitch singer"  lately.

good Morning everyone.It is 69º now @ 5:45 A M and partly cloudy going 83º. today. we went to K C MO. yesterday and got a new engine for our Lawn mower. so I am going to shop and install it. so cam mow the grass before we have to bale it for hay.also have to grade the driveway it has a ditch washed across it about a foot wide and that wide also. so we have to turn around and go out same way can not use the circle drive. always something to do to Make me tried. Have a great day.

Lloyd

 Sato good to see you come back more often.

Lloyd

Good Morning Everyfriend!  And a special Good Morning to you, SATO.  It's good to see you posting here.  We don't like to lose any of our friends.

Good Morning to you, too, LLOYD.  Get that work done so you can get on the road!  If you're planning to go North, it has to be soon before the weather changes. 

I'll be off to fill my spot at Wally World this morning.  Wish me smiles!

Good morning everyone..

Lovely day in the making out there.  We had a fantastic day yesterday..after picking up my sewing machine we his the chocolate factory then the bakery. We stopped for lunch where they serve the best fish and chips , I wish I had of thought to take a photo to show you but didn't..I ordered the. 2 piece fish and brought one home for today. We came through a dandy rain, I didn't know should I pull off the road or just keep on ,it was raining that hard. Just got in the door and my friend phoned to ask how the day was then abruptly had to go. Next thing I knew as I was talking over the fence with my neighbour they drove in ,a 30 min drive from their place.   She brought a bowl and plate made by her daughter for me and I had some fabric to share so went to get it and when I came back up stairs there was a birthday cake with candle going and they sang happy birthday to me. All in all with phones calls  too I had a great day.

Today I may tinker with getting the machine in cabinet and do some sewing.

Jane, have a great day at work, lots of smiling faces with a few hugs thrown in .

Lloyd, please be careful doing the repairs today.

Sato,good morning, please come back again..

I had better get a move on.

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning everyone, slept later this morning, feel awake now and not half asleep.  62° wonderfully cool.

AMY  good thing there is no chocolate factory here or I would be sending my CNA there every week. I have a handicap tag, no cost either. I had asked the doctor I fired about one and he told me I needed to know a politician and grease his palm. Then I asked the orthopedic doctor about it and he told me to go online and download the form and fill it out and he would sign it. That one I left was too lazy to tell me what to do. That or wanted me to pay him to get the form. Every 2 years they renew it automatically. That was when I first started having trouble walking and using just a cane. For me who always parked as far in a parking lot as I could and walked to the store. My younger son will not use it when he takes me to a store. He will drop me and the door and go park and them has me wait there for him to pick me up. It burns me when I see an able person park in a spot. We see that here in the parking lot, too. It is plainly marked. Visitors have an are to park in but some will park in a handicap place right in the first row. There are signs up that others will be towed. I have seen 2 cars get towed.

ROLEY/PETER  thank you for both videos, interesting.

JANE  I know we had rain 2 nights ago but when I fell asleep I heard nothing. My CNA was telling me yesterday there was some loud thunder and heavy rain and winds. She lives about 5 miles from me and  I heard nothing. When I fall asleep I almost am deaf to any noise. Who can pass farm fresh produce all summer? I know I cannot.

SHIRLEY  it is a sad world we live in these days when we don't feel safe going any place where crowds are. Not even safe at home anymore either.

JENNY  like the time JOAN was up here to visit Joe and Kate when Finlay was a baby. I was hoping then we could get together but did not work out either.

SATO  so nice to see you here this morning.

LLOYD  I get tired just reading about all you do.

JOY has not been in lately, hope she is OK.
Have a good day.

AMY  you sneaked in on me. Happy Belated Birthday.

Good morning to all with a special "Howdy" to you, Sato!  Happy it is the computer & not the body keeping you away, computers can be replaced!

Lloyd, for all the years we've shared stories online, you seemed to enjoy the chores most of all. Now you are ready to play and are just as serious about playing. Slow down and enjoy the travels this time.

Jane, like you, fur babies get taken care of first, wish I could put a leash on mine for a walk. Tried every kind of leash  with old LaurenKat without success so not going to waste time trying with these others.

What was the saying about "red sky in the morning"?  We had the reddest sky I ever saw in my whole life while ago. I took a photo with the camera, not phone, but did not show the red as bright as true color. It is still red but darker than a few minutes ago, strange sight.

Jenn, you talking about your cat getting hoarse reminds me of the time we left our German Shepherd at a new kennel, we never took her to visit Cas' mother & was like leaving one of the kids behind. They advertised "indoor & outdoor runs"... and when I called them they said they would bring them inside if it rained. When we got back a week later she went crazy when she saw us... I was shocked to see the metal on her collar had rust spots & she couldn't "talk". They must have left her outside the whole time & she barked herself hoarse. Picture it, 100 pound German Shepherd that squeeked when she barked. We never left her there again.

Amy, I didn't know yesterday was your birthday... Happy Birthday! belated but with a hug. Sounds like a good day!

Gloria, Cas had the tag that hangs over the mirror until he must have forgotten to put it up one day.... I'm guessing someone chewed him out for parking in handicap spot because he insisted (all of a sudden) that I go get the one on his license tag. He looked healthy but was so short winded just a few steps & he had to stop to breathe. That doctor of yours should have been reported for scamming. Sad when one goes through all the years of training "just for the money", and I'm convinced some do.

Better get a move on. Fantastic Friday to all. 

Gotta run but had to say....

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, AMY!   

I guess I didn't realize that I haven't checked in for a couple days.  If I don't write something first thing in the morning,  I get busy and forget to come back.

So, I will just say that all is well with me.  I am feeling a lot  better and trying to get caught up with things that I had let go when I wasn't feeling good. Thank heavens, I do feel better.

It is supposed to be a beautiful week end over most of the whole country. Best weekend so far this summer, the weather man is telling us. I hope to get to the Farmers Market tomorrow morning. Looking for some good Maryland tomatoes and peaches.  And,  maybe some kind of baked goods.  So much to choose from.  There is one young man who bakes good bread. 

I hope that everyone will be able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather.

Joy

Amy, I hope you had a wonderful birthday and I hope you have many more.

Mary Ann

Belated Happy Birthday to AMY!!!     I am making fabric tissue holders that fit in pockets or purses and hope to donate them to the church fall craft sale.  We had a funny incident today.  We hauled an older stationary bike to the curb for trash pickup.  It disappeared in a couple of minutes and whoever left a heavy iron thing in its place.  Wish we could have seen them.  I hope the trash picks this up.  Isn't that weird.  Our whole housing area is seniors and it is odd that any of them could handle this heavy equipment.  Always a mystery going on here.   

Jenny:  Glad you are back - wow, you are certainly busy when the children begin school. We are anxious to try your new find for breakfast.

Shirley:  I have not heard of an early fall - it may be so because weather is still so hot. 

We had a cat when I was growing up and Boots was the only cat that was careful not to get in anyone's way.  Boots did try to sleep on my face once when I was sleeping and I was sure someone was trying to smother me.  Never after that time - Boots knew it was wrong right away.

Joy:  Thank goodness you do feel better.       That tired me out for the day. 

 

Thank you for the birthday wishes, it really was a fun day.

Today we have had thunder, lightening and rain...rain we need the other no ,it really bothers Babe.
Tomorrow we are off again to meet up with son and daughter in love. I need to take my ink cartridges in to Costco for a refill so while that is happening we will meet the kids.

I noticed the zucchinis  growing and soo they will be put into relish....just need them a little bigger

Better go and see what needs to be done..

AMY, you'll never guess which recipe I printed off this morning?  AMY'S ZUCCHINI RELISH!   I practically stood on my head looking for the last jar that I KNEW was there somewhere and then I remembered, I gave it to my sister to try. Thank goodness, I discovered I need to make it while the zucchini is in season!  That's on my agenda for this weekend.   Great minds with but a single thought?

Dogs are bugging me.  Must be time to check out the grass out in the yard and see if all the mulch is still in place or should they dig it up and move it!  Here we go!

well I had another Nap on the couch and slept past my bedtime. so I am late to bid you all sweet drams and good night, so hope you all do have a great night's sleep, and see you all tomorrow. good night.

Lloyd

From June

  I wanted to post in Seniors and Friends but am not able to follow the new way even tho I can read messages from friends that still post there.  My print is too small for me to forward same.

It is a milestone to turn 97 and CALLIE, I remember so well my travels with Whimsy.  GinnieB was the first person I ever corresponded with and what a wonderful night it was in OKLAHOMA  and remember so well meeting you,GinnieB and HELONA in Calgary and Montreal.

Thank goodness I made those trips when I was able and built up a great memory bank to look back on.

So many I wish to send messages to .
 
Vanilla Jackie  You are often in my thoughts andknow of your sadness but you are stronger than you think, and may each new day help you on your way.

MARY ANN, yes I specially asked Whimsy to make a trip through Grand Haven and remember that visit well as Pat Scott came down there too with Geordieand we walked the pier.  She also was accompanied by a member from Traverse city who I had met
In Calgary but have forgotten her name.  I know she died not long after that.  How is Dot?  I appreciate reading of her in your messages at times.

MarsGal I remember you from Seniors Learn but think we both had different names then (I was waafer).

I have had a great day with messages from far and wide and beautiful flowers.

BUBBLE. I was so interested in your recent time away with your daughter and to know you have been able to travel. Am sure you are appreciated in S & F.   

I have got used to the ways in Aged Care
But all my Air Force friends have pre deceased me and so many
Cyber friends are now gone. 

Keep well and I will try to send this mornings photo. 

June

for June

https://www.seniorsandfriends.org/index.php?topic=11.msg159475#msg159475

Good morning everyone, oh I would love to sleep until at least 7 in the morning again, now waking at 3:30 am is just too early.  62° so mice am cool for sleeping. Yesterday felt like a perfect  day, blue sky puffy white clouds an good breeze, LOW humidity.I must have been outside about 4 hours yesterday. I was out on the porch in the morning for 2 hours and when my CNA left I was out there again. Wish the rest of the summer was like that.

SHIRLEY  I went to that dummy doctor for almost 10 years, mostly just wellness checks every 3 months. When my back started acting up he ignored it. I finally blew my top, something I never had done before. He sent me for an MRI and that is when he found out I had arthritis and he did nothing else. I think he was more interested in getting out on his yacht.

JOY  good seeing you back here. Nothing like local grown produce and fruit. Only time of the year tomatoes have taste. I know yesterday was a beautiful day here and hope we have more days like that.

CAROL  years ago one of my sisters had a cat. In the mornings he would wake us up one at a time, like she knew the times we got up for schoor work. She did it in the order we would get up with enough time in between for us to get out of the bathroom.

AMY  my daughter makes zucchini relish and it is so good.

BUBBLE  thank you for June's message. I still remember the big party they had for her when she turned 90. Her and Whimzy had a great time when she came here from Sidney to stay with Whimzy. They did a lot of traveling.

Have a good day.

Good morning everyone..

We had more rain overnight ,grass gave a huge sigh of relief and is now starting to turn green again.

I love this cooler weather at night, no need for the a/c on and at times there is a gentle breeze blowing.

We are off to the city,this morning after I had made plans we received a phone call that Kyle has a dental appointment on Mon. So back in again we go on Mon , if I had of known I might have said wait till Mon but then son may be on the road and we would miss out on the visit.

Soon we will start to hear the geese flying by ,taking the young on short flights getting ready for the longer ones. Jays will start to squawk and blackbirds bunch up ready to fly south too. I am so looking forward to the fall.

Jane, yes great minds it is! I need to pick up onions and peppers once the zucchinis get a bit bigger and then the fun begins.

Gloria,sitting out getting fresh air and vitamin D is relaxing. I love picking a tomato ,put it in a sandwich and eating it while it is still warm from the sun.

Joy, great that you are feeling a lot better. We may hit a few markets on our way home ,depending on which way we come back.

Bubble, thank you for the message from Junee.

Junee, happy to read all is well and hope you stop in again.

Better get a move on here....can't go to town in my nightgown.

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good Morning Everyfriend!  We're getting the cool nights and warm days also.  Last night was down in the low 50s during the night.  I actually had to close the window that blows directly on my bed!

So nice to hear from Junee! I've wondered about her and how she's doing and now we all know!

I'm hoping that Cathy texts to say she's going to the Amish Store this morning.  I'll be going with her if she does.  If she doesn't, I'll have to make a trip to the Farm Market that's on the way.  I need to get peppers and onions for my zucchini relish, too.  And I need some stuff from the Amish Store.

I hope you all have a lovely day. 
Make it your own in every way!

Gloria, I also had a restless night. Mind still running when I went to bed so just got up & went through some boxes sitting on the floor waiting to go back into the RV. Been waiting for a day with no rain in the forecast so I can put the slide out on the motorhome to open drawers. The rest of the night was "fractured" sleep, Tiger decided to stay inside to keep me company & we kept waking each other up. It did not get cool enough to open the door for fresh air last night (whine-whine) & we are to get back to the 90s all week (last time I checked the weather guessers). Have you noticed how much shorter the days are already?  I have a habit of checking the clock for sunrise every morning because I won't take off driving until I can see the deer running far enough ahead.  When we left for CO in June it was light much earlier, a lot has to do with it being cloudy the last week or so, early morning. We haven't had a lot of rain but enough the grass is green again.

Amy, not sure where all the geese & ducks have been this summer, and hardly ever see the egrets since "they" destroyed the rookery putting in the by-pass.... and have not seen any of the birds doing their formation flights with the young. One year the sky was full all the time and I would laugh at one group that couldn't get it right. Could almost hear their laughter as one would break line in the V & then they would all flounder & break up. I regret never catching it on video, kind of hard to share the vision without.

Bubble, thanks for the ride over to Photos with your link. Great photo of Junee... and love the pics of your family. We do depend on you so much, thank you.

Junee, so glad to hear from you, it's been too long. I do remember you & Whimzy & that whole Missouri bunch "bouncing off each other" laughing. I haven't heard from Doris A for quite a while. She was still living on her own last time we talked, & sounded so good. Every time we talk she cracks up at my clutzy ways.

I do gotta get busy & eat breakfast so I have time to clean this house a little. My daughter flew in to bring her grands back from a week at her house. She came over for a little while yesterday afternoon.... she accepted a consulting job but just a few hours a week, only until the company gets organized. She is loving being retired. She works as hard at being retired as she did all her life, learning in school & college, raising 4 kids along with working full time and now she has lost all the weight she wanted (her doctor said "no more") and is physically better than she has been in years. With Crohn's she is proud to be off the extreme meds she took when working & has her body under control. She did get her "drive" from her father.

I expect a bunch of you will be up by the time I post.... will chat later.  Right now it feels sticky in here, temp about what the thermostat is set on so AC not running, think the low overnight was 75... and bet the humidity was at least that high. Used to be the air was much dryer but now it's more like MIssouri when I grew up. This is Fair Week in MO, always hot & so often storms that messed with the fair. Memories..........

Jane, I'd love to go shopping with you. I may drive over to our Farmer's Market today, only lasts until noon. I haven't been but once this year & nothing was "local" at that time. I would love a tomato sandwich with real "grown in the sun" tomatoe.

 so_P_bubble thanks for the picture of the past. Now and the My brain works a little as it used to. but mostly Brain dead now days, i do not forget any thing just can't reamber it when I need to. and my brain reamber's but my bode can't do what it says to do. it is 72º and bright sun @7:52 A M. and i also had another not good sleep. my brain would not stop and let me go to sleep in bed,so i got up and settled down in my power chair for restless sleep all night and think I am as tired as I was when I went to bed. My brother and our serving son are here in mo hope to hook up with them today.Have a great day.

Lloyd

So happy to see a message and picture from Junee.  She looks as "perky" as ever!

Helona, GinnieB and I met a lot of Senior Net friends as they travelled through OKC.  Being at the crossroads of 3 interstates meant we could meet almost anywhere that was convenient for them.

Pat and Judy came to where the group was having dinner when I was on a tour and we stopped in Guelph.  Later,in Hershey PA, Tonilee gathered a group for lunch with me.  Friends on the tour were amazed that these strangers and I "knew" each other.

Happy Memories of time spent with Senior Net friends at those Bashes and in person.

Had a surprise visit from Miss Ellen yesterday.  She's in town for a friend's wedding and I didn't think we'd be able to get together until next Monday or Tuesday.  However,  the bridesmaid's luncheon was at a tearoom about 2 blocks from my house so she came here between that and the rehearsal in downtown OKC. Hope I'll get to see her again before she goes back to NYC next week.

Air temperature is supposed to be around 105ºF this afternoon.  I don't plan to test how much it will feel like with the humidity!

Enjoy your day, Everyfriend.

Good morning, EVERYFRIEND!

It is a lazy Saturday for us as we are feeling under the weather with some kind of bug we must have picked up.  We were to drive to Laramie Wyoming today to attend the celebration of life of my cousin.  Sadly, I had to call her daughter this morning to tell her we just can not make it

AMY. I am so sorry I missed wishing you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY🎂🎂🎂🎂 I have you on my calendar now, so I hopefully will not do this again. I am glad you enjoyed YOUR DAY, and I hope you will enjoy a very happy and healthy year to come. Some of your Canadian Geese have decided they like it so much here in Colorado that they no longer leave.....they are everywhere.  Sadly the City of Denver was forced to make the decision to eradicate many of them in one of the BIG city parks.  Oh my, that was a very controversial subject.  They euthanized them, but did take them to a processing plant and had the meat processed for human consumption and prepared several meals for the homeless.  Thy not only were extremely messy, but they were attacking people and it was a big problem.  We have thousands of them here! 

GLORIA, my son said that he will make sure that we plan a visit to see you the next time we are in Boston. He wants to take is to Charlestown RI. He said he has heard it is a wonderful beach area.  He and the boys are staying with friends on the cape and he said it is as crowded there as Ogunquit Beach in Maine where he took us last Saturday.  He wants us to come back in October......I wish we could, but it probably won't happen.  I am sorry you did not get t9 meet Joan either.  Kurt lives in Weston, right next door to Wellesley Mass where Joe used to live.  They are both lovely communities.

JUNEE, how nice to see a message from you and to see your picture.  Thank you, BUBBLE.  It is great to hear from you and you look as great as ever. 

SATO, it is also SO GOOD to see your Post.  I think about you often and always hope you are doing well.

CALLIE, so happy to read that you had a visit from Ellen.  I hope you can get together for another visit before she has to return home.  I meant to comment about her flight Thermotherapien day when you said she was coming for a visit.  Enjoy!  I am smiling with a bit of tear in my eyes at reading your post about Pat, Judy and others that you got to meet up with.  I still can not believe our ToniLee is gone too.  We, too, got to visit Guelph....such wonderful memories😢😢

JANE, I do hope you get to go to the Amish Market today..... you know it always makes me happy to read you were there🥰🥰

SHIRLEY, always happy to read that your daughter is there for a visit.  It seems she is doing very well.  Enjoy the time with her and the family.

HI CAROL!  Please do honk when you go buyout back....I do appreciate knowing you watch for me💞

I do hope you all enjoy your day.
