Yep I was bananas too. Couldn't remember to save my life.Thanks Cathie!
I was goin’ bananas!!!
and that didn’t take long for ME!
Then I found out she hasn't been seen since October 2025. So I'm still bananas. Snoopy's Mom needs to check in soon.
Thanks I do kinda. The cough is still lingering but Mr Fre got to play with Willow his best doggy girlfriend the last couple of days. So at least I was laughing my head off at little dog antics. That's always the best medicine. My son and family were here for a couple of days and went home today. Mr Fre and I are recuperating from it all now.
Glad to hear you are better MS Cathie.
Ray texted, he's having a great week fyi.
Kerry went dumpster diving at her son's new home. He had his pickup stacked for the dump but Kerry spied some treasures...not too bad though. A brand new set of 2 Tiki BT speakers and lights. Retail sticker on the new box was 39.99.
I charged them and turned one on, 2 DAYS AGO and it's still on!
The pic is for compairison
not a bad dumpster score...they even sound decent and we can use them outside.yay Kerry.
She also scored a bookcase for 26 bucks at the auction house. She painted it yesterday in the garage.
Temps here dropped yesterday so like Matt, I stayed in most of the day after I turned on the heat and dehumidifier in the garage for Kerry.
Next week will be Build Matt's House week. Lowes will deliver Mon. and i see Dr chiropractor on Tuesday. Good timing!

I really was not experiencing any issues, but because of my age my Primary called for a CT scan/MRI/X-ray, sections of my lugs were black when they should have been Grey., A year later I started experiencing getting winded easier doing regular things when exerting myself.
Yes, I miss my Woodie
, it was hard because I was his care giver, giving him his heart med's and diuretics multiple times a day, Just like my Penny . . .One day your a care giver then , . . .IT JUST STOPS!
And then another appointment after?

I kinda know how you feel ….
When I lost my little Gary it tore right through to my soul….
Keep telling stories about him/her
And keep pictures around .
That helps me out at least??
Good morning everyone!Dear Sapphire,
I tried to hide under the carpet strips today.
Jacky
I did notice some newspaper though and it was full of humans doing stupid things and no tortoise news!

It gave me a sense of Purpose, much bigger than myself....I was doing something solely for someone else.
I installed a wire perimeter around the back yard for the automatic lawn mower and halfway through the robots initial "wire walk" the cheap crud-wire from China just separated internally and lost signal. I had to replace about 50' with the leftover wire from the front. Thankfully after about 2 hours of troubleshooting I figured out the issue and he went out and cut the grass while I lay dying now! 
I am beat....hundreds of feet laying on the ground the whole time. The squirrels better stay off my wire or we will go straight to "war"!
Enjoy the day guys!

Has anyone here checked out the app iNaturalist? CBS on my fire TV has featured them twice. Thank God. The first time I didn't remember to write it down then promptly forgot the name of it.
I think I like it though. It's a way to share what you see in your neck of the woods. Wildlife, bugs, plants etc etc etc. People are also using the app to compile data for research to help animals. Hopefully by me using the app I can help in some way.

I did go to Dr chiropractor yesterday and he worked his Priestlike magic using needles on my lower back then ultrasound on the muscles mid to low back area and I'm 90% better today. He also said with back issues, the hot tub isn't helping. He suggested ice....lots of it. So i came home and turned into MrFreeze from Batman!
I have to say how happy I am to be an American today after my friends from Finland locked up someone for something they said, 22 years ago. We used to put the broken on the inside folks on that panel in mental institutions, now they run a country. LOL To me, they have chosen"poorly".
Maybe Kerry and i will do her landscape blocks today? I know...ill get my hardhat on and play Boss!
I'm sitting on the back porch typing this and Hose B ( backyard mower) just started up by himself and began to mow. Oops, i ran out in my bathrobe to put him back in his home. If i let him out too often the yard will look trampled from him driving all over.

Good morning/afternoon all and Happy 1st April to you all.
Doesn't feel much like spring here. We've had really strong winds with more to come on the weekend. I feel sorry for the birds. They've probably lost a lot of nests and even chicks.
It's still pretty cold too.
I've been pottering in the garden this week. I'm really sad to see that my 20+ year old holly tree seems to be dying. It's practically lost all its leaves with a lot of small branch die back. I don't know if it's some sort of blight or if it's something to do with a soak away drain my neighbours dug near it on the other side of the fence last summer so that when they bleach their yard they can hose it all down there. I often hear them moaning about the tree even though it's cut well back from the fence. It's always been beautiful so it wouldn't surprise me. I may send off some soil samples.
I'm still out and about with my nephew helping him sort his new nest out. We've been looking for a wardrobe and a mobile kitchen island as well as a washing machine and drier. I've been doing his laundry since he moved so we need to sort that out pronto! Hopefully there'll be some good Easter offers in the electrical stores.
Anyway my house is looking a bit like Widow Twankey's laundry at the moment so I'd better get back to it.
I'll see you all soon. Take care and TTFN.

Thankfully no one got locked up, she only got a small fine. Also, she is a member of parliament and has been since the nineties and her party is right now a part of the government. The original text was written 22 years ago but if I understand correctly the fine was from the republification later on.
