COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

Kind of, yeah! The school has a lot of spirit, and they have a nice orchestra. I’m just gonna miss some of my teachers, lol.
But definitely happy to leave middle school. Hopefully High school is less “awkward”, lol

Good luck! My high school was an awful place, but it made me appreciate my time in college so much more. Though our school systems are very different. Congratulations on reaching the milestone!

Just read in Pretend Chat that Yvonne’s cat Sterling died. She’s pretty cut up about it as you’d expect.

Oh no This is heartbreaking. I’ll check with the thread in a moment and send her a msg

More massive thundershowers here in Maryland. Interestingly enough, the rains have brought out the Tree frogs.. i just took this video.

Such soothing sounds! I could go back to sleep...

*Nods Head* Yes please. What kind of cookies are we talking about by the way? NOT that I am fussy. They are all good. Except for some that were from Japan that I tried recently. They had the flavouring of that stinky (prickly Fruit). I just googled it because I could not remember the name, so I typed into google "Smelly prickly fruit: and it brought it up straight away. Let me tell you those biscuits were vile.

I’ve heard of this fruit. I’m generally adventurous with tastes, but this one is “no, thanks.” I’d rather go back to eating crickets.

Good Mornooning All,

With all the rain that we have been having i just checked our dam levels and this is what they said it was at yesterday. However we did get alot of rain last night, so the rain that you are all sending to us, seems to be reaching us finally. Still we need to carry on being conservative, as there is still the coming years and summers to think of:

Thank you Linda, I slept okay. As I went to bed so late, I did not take my sleeping tablet, sooo I slept but felt like I was awake for a lot of the time. The good thing that came from that though is that I didn't sleep so heavy and so didn't wake up with my arms numb and hands feeling dead, which is normally the case until I can get the blood pumping through them again. So that is one good thing. But just very tired today and sore. But as I am sure (you have lots of experience with this as well) it is par for the course. I must just be patient.

Hope you’re better soon, Carol! xx

That was what I thought as well.

Nope, I would not recommend it. It is really yukky. The taste kept on repeating itself the whole day. Not a pleasant experience at all.

It is hanging in, and being stubborn, Just like me!!! Silly Back.

You both sound suspiciously like tortoises to me!

 

[Kristoff]

Don't know, that was why I asked. I mean, if you can turn water into wine, why not Grapes!?!

Oh, define “you”. I’m much more humble about my abilities...

 

[CarolM]

LOL, I am having a good laugh right now. If only my back was like a torts shell. It would be strong and hard. And every now and then I could retreat inside and keep all warm and cosy.

That was brave of you to have tried!

I have a friend in Ellicott City and it sounds like it has been pretty bad

I love the sound of the frogs!

Well, I didn't want to mention a certain persons name, as I thought, politics and religion is banned as topics on TFO. Which is good, as they can become quite heated topics and we have enough of those on here already.

 

[CarolM]

That was brave of you to have tried!

Not really, I just didn't know any better. Lol - Now I do.

The storms?

 

[JoesMum]

The storms?

Yes. There's been a lot of flooding in her area of Maryland. Fortunately, her home is dry.

 

[JoesMum]

Good morning all. It's Friday and I haven't got a clue what today holds... I really must check my diary!

* Nips off to check Google Calendar *

Ooh! I have today to myself

So that's laundry, organise a lunch date with my friend, pick up JoesDad's suit from the dry cleaner... and watch tennis at Roland Garros on the tv

 

[CarolM]

Yes. There's been a lot of flooding in her area of Maryland. Fortunately, her home is dry.

Glad her home is dry. There does seem to be a lot of storms going around lately though and in different parts of the world. Seems to be either a feast or famine kind of scenario! OMW I seem to be quoting alot of religious sayings today. Hmmm, something must be on my mind.

Good mornooning, roommates! “Kindergarten” day for me — three kids to pick up instead of one. Planning to keep them outdoors as much as possible.
We’re heading to Aarhus tomorrow — the second largest city in Denmark — for a two-day festival. Daughter will sing on both days, but then I’ll be done with the hyper-stressed Russian moms until September. Something to look forward to!
