Good Morning everyone. hope you all had a good mothers day get together as we did. but just with prate of the family. as they grow up and spreed there wings is harder to get them all to land in the same place, times change. when we were younger we all landed at one set of the parents or the other ever weakened. just thankful for what happens. the temperature is good. Have a great Monday.

Good morning everyone..

Another beautiful day here, sun is shining and temp is climbing.
Have a few things to do this morning ,then I had better get at another quilt.

Jane, I hope the "colt"  ran away and didn't leave you hoarse. Kyle also has a colt and this is going on 3 weeks for him. I hope it soon goes as he doesn't need this on his plate!

Lloyd, finally!! Glad to "see" you in here, hope your leg is healing for you.

Larry, since yesterday was a day of rest, I did exactly that. In the afternoon I took pillow, blanket and dog out on the verandah and had a wee snooze on the swing.

Gloria, any word from your son on his apple trees?

Joy, hope you have a nice sunny day today.

Gloria de.....90's is a bit too hot for me...a/c would be running here .

Enjoy your day everyone..

I'm up....not sure if I'm attem yet.  The "colt' is still hanging around but he's not growing into a "hoarse" yet.  I slept away yesterday.  Now I'm going to take some pills and sleep some more.

Hi Everyone.  After a very hot day yesterday it is suppose to only get to 89 this afternoon.  If Pat feels up to it we will finally go to the shoe store and then probably to Honey on the Rock for our main meal of the day. The only thing I did yesterday was to attend Sunday School and Church and then came home as we had food in the refrigerator for our lunch.  On the way home from Church I stopped at CVS and got Pat a Whitman Sampler of chocolates as knew she wouldn't be getting any presents from the kids.  They did send her e-cards and called and she appreciated that on Mother's Day.I did watch the last several hours of the golf tournament.

deAngel, you were well honored by those who know and family that love you. I bet you will have a little more summer before fall arrives. 

Mycheal,  thanks for the information on the class you teach.  I am not familiar with the organization called Community Action but it sure sounds like a worthy endeavor.  I did a quick search and apparently we have that same program in our County.  Volunteer work is very gratifying. 

Lloyd, glad to see your posting as have been concerned about you.  Customs we use to follow in terms of family get gatherings often change after years.  It is sad but a fact of modern life. 

Amy, glad you were able to have a restful Sunday afternoon on your verandah.  It was too hot here yesterday to be outside any longer than necessary. 

Jane, sleep is a wonderful cure for colds that have to run their course.  Glad to see your condition hasn't worsened. 

A neighbor spotted a cougar in the ravine behind our houses yesterday - am on guard here.  Creepy.

We are meeting our granddaughter in Golden for an early lunch - thankfully, I wrote the time down as I was thinking it was an hour and half earlier and pushing Don to "get on with it" - my mistake.  I made a crock pot of clam chowder yesterday and we have enough for leftovers tonight. 

Jane:  Sending you hot chicken broth with a dash of tabasco sauce. 

Gloria:  So true that worrying is useless. 

Joy:  We had all our children and two of their spouses. It is so special.

Larry:  It was a snow storm and probably ice on the roads - knowing Minnesota so well. It sure is getting hot fast this year -

Mycheal:  Your teaching basic money matters is so worthy.  I commend you for your volunteering. 

Amy:  you had a well-deserved snooze on the swing. 

Jenny:  This is the 2nd. cougar seen in the ravine since we have lived here.  No deer around this year.   




 

Good Afternoon Everyone,
from the overcast,  but warm, rocky coast
of Maine.

Our weather is going to be pretty much the
same for the next 10 days...  pleasantly warm
with not so much sun but many clouds and
some showers.     

(Fine with me!)   

I heard from my kids yesterday...  and
this coming weekend,  I will see Kirk,
Magaly and Keiry.       Now that they
live in Boston and North Berwick Maine,
we get a chance to see one another more
then ever before.   

It is nice to have all of my kids
around these days.    For that I
am very fortunate ...

Everyone is doing well...    My GRand
Daughter Maggie graduated from
Art School this past weekend... 

Wow are they all growing up FAST. 

Have a good day,  Everyone!

(That is creepy about the Cougar !!)
Sandy

Still feeling a bit like death warmed over but that's better than yesterday.  I'm not going to work tomorrow.  Just can't face it.

Carol, thanks for the chicken broth with tabasco.  It hits the spot!  Back to the couch!

I woke up tired today, and still tired so it will be and early to bed and book.  Looking forward to a better tomorrow. Hugs, Love and Prayers.
