Amish auctions are the best Jacqui. The one my Father and I go to is the largest in Geauga County, and it's not all plants. That's a big section of it though. There's also furniture (hand crafted),livestock, farming equipment, and much more.

I'd like to go to one, but the closest Amish are about a day's trip away. They atleast use to make the best dandelion wine.

White Hawaiian is Canadian bacon, onions, pineapple and cheese, it is really good!!

We found out, when Jeff went into surgery that actually they (during surgery) do not take advanced directives into consideration. Even if you do not wish to be revived, they will do so.

Was it a hospital with religious affiliations. They override advanced directives which is why my card says to transfer me out of any religious hospital once stable. My fear is that my life will be drug out and cause my family suffering instead of my life ending and them getting the finality they deserve.


If it isn't a "white Hawaiian" then it has red sauce and I think red sauce on a Hawaiian pizza is gross!!

Wow, that scares me! I hope Rob would lawyer up and fight. Oh well, I actually hope he never has to go through that at all!

No sauce just cheese. Little Ceasars now has white pizza! The painters had me try a white chicken & garlic that they picked up and it was sooo good!!

It's only during surgery. Otherwise they hopefully follow your wishes, but Dr and hospitals can fight it.

That makes sense. I would definitely want a life saving operation if I was that lucky or even to be resuscitated in the OR, I just don't want to be a vegetable with a feeding tube and respirator.

Wow, dude looks way better than I thought! Did everyone get outside today? That is great! Our supposed 2-4 inches of snow turned into a foot and another school closing:(.


How is he doing with walking?

Both yesterday and today the two boys (puppy and Dude) were out in the main part of the backyard running around. If the rain holds off, they may get out again tomorrow. Then Sunday it's snow! :D With temps back into possible outside time again by Wed.

We got upto 65 in the shade here today!!! That's pushing 80 in the sun. Both big Sulcatas were out and the two pancakes had a little fun in the sun as well. We've got two more days of this, then it's back to 50's and rain. Hopefully frost is over, I've got a bunch of weeds to plant.
I have a hard time with religious hospitals telling me what is best for me when in truth it's what they want for themselves. It's hard enough for a Buddhist to wrap their head around me being a meat eating Buddhist, let alone a catholic hospital knowing what a Buddhist is. Lol.

I hope you don't get snow on Sunday and the last pic's of Dude actually are a little upsetting. He is pretty deformed but in great hands and looks happy:)

I cannot even imagine weather that warm yet. But it will be in the high 40's this week so hopefully it will melt the 2 feet of snow I've been looking at for far too long!

We get bad snow and its 8"-10"'s. sorry. But I bet you see the sun way more than we do.


Last night I floated the idea of regional get togethers. Has it been tried? Anyone think it a worthwhile pursuit?
