1:33 am

stidmama

I have ordered ten pounds of pie cherries -- we are having a star wars marathon and pitting all of the on Tuesday. And then I will freeze a lot, and can some. And then Wednesday a trip to Mt St Helens... and then Thursday.... I think I might sleep a little. LOL

1:36 am

stidmama

I promise, grannyrose -- it's just that I want so much to get a lot done this summer since I wasn't able to for four years. :-) There are some pics up on my website from the last week of the yard, if you are interested -- stidmama.com

1:36 am

flosey

LOL rubd!

1:38 am

grannyrose

night jilli, sleep well dear friend

1:39 am

stidmama

oops. Rbud. It's late here on the west coast... *yawn*

1:39 am

rbud

I've been painting window trim off and on for days now, finally getting somewhere. Maybe be moving into my new bedroom by the end of this week, yay!

1:40 am

stidmama

good for you! painting trim takes longer than it ought, I think... last summer we painted our bedroom and it took forever!

1:41 am

rbud

it helps that I finally cut and nailed up the last piece today (I was putting the trim and baseboard on myself)

1:41 am

grannyrose

lovely, rbud, so exciting when deco's finally come to an end, and you see what you had visualised in reality

1:41 am

stidmama

wow -- you're very ambitious, rbud!

1:41 am

rbud

need to shop for a little-ish ceiling fan

1:42 am

rbud

I have the cute square pieces on the window corners, with the little bull's-eyes in them, saved a lot of mitering

1:43 am

stidmama

:-) I thought about a fan, but defaulted to a basket-like pendant fixture...

1:43 am

stidmama

that's a nice trend, one I heartily approve of.

1:44 am

rbud

reminds me of the house I grew up in, it had all that kind of stuff around the doors and windows. lovely wood everywhere.

1:45 am

stidmama

Someday I will get trim up around our house -- but that's going to wait for me to actually get the house de-cluttered enough to see the walls. *grin*

1:46 am

rbud

:) I know how that goes!

1:47 am

stidmama

We have TEN boxes of out-grown shoes and clothes a few appliances going out tomorrow. Donations... Glad they have vans that come pick things up!

1:47 am

stidmama

I am pleased to announce there is room to swing a mosquito in my office again. Only another twelve or so boxes to clear out of there! LOL

1:48 am

rbud

oh, how ni4! I am happy to just get the guys at Goodwill to come outside and unload my truck (that I packed full myself) - wish we had pickup service!

1:50 am

stidmama

:-) It has taken me a lot of time to get to the point where we could give things away. I haven't had time or energy to go through for a long time. Things sort of piled up. Now I can get into the office I can probably make faster progress. *figners crossed*

1:52 am

rbud

well, sounds like you're in the right frame of mind, once in a while I get to that point, stuff I thought I needed or wanted suddenly looks expendible and out it all goes, whew!

1:53 am

rbud

but I fear I'm a bit of a packrat at heart, lol

1:53 am

stidmama

I am feeling "lighter" at the moment. Part of it is that problem with "becoming" a teacher but not yet having a classroom. I keep hanging on to things and collecting things that "might be useful someday" -- I am also a packrat...

1:55 am

Jivingjenny0

2:07 am

lilliann

2:08 am

rubyfoo

2:08 am

lilliann

er5 is a ladies name

2:08 am

grannyrose

ea4, one for every one

2:08 am

grannyrose

er5, type of heather

2:09 am

2:09 am

rubyfoo

this grid is too small for a Monday! (not that I'll finish....lol)

2:09 am

lilliann

aww, bless her ruby.it was sunny here earlier,but now cloudy.i think it's suppose to rain later....i'm sick of the rain!

2:09 am

grannyrose

lol, that's the theme song for babble, jenny

2:10 am

lilliann

back to lurke mode to finish :)

2:10 am

rubyfoo

she is responding very well to her meds and I am grateful, my prayers may be working!

2:10 am

grannyrose

happy lurking lilliann

2:10 am

grannyrose

so good to hear, ruby.

2:11 am

rubyfoo

ch4/7 describes my outfit this morning: awful (warm) bathrobe and floppy slippers

2:11 am

grannyrose

and the side effects? have they settled a little?

2:11 am

rubyfoo

yes, fortunately

2:12 am

grannyrose

oh, wow, double blessing then.

2:12 am

lilliann

back again to ask ruby.has ruby not been well?

2:13 am

rubyfoo

she has a heart condition, just discovered, an extra beat which leaves her panting and tired. The vet heard her when she was visiting the puppy and pput her on meds.

2:13 am

rubyfoo

She's 9 1/2, pretty old for a chow and, as long as she's not in pain, I want her around as long as possible, but without subjecting her to tests

2:14 am

lilliann

aww.well, by the sounds of it the tablets are helping so that's a good sign

2:19 am

rubyfoo

vewry quick half and nbs

2:22 am

lilliann

i'm getting sidetracked by a craft programme.i knew i shouldn't have put the tv on

2:23 am

rubyfoo

what kind of craft?

2:23 am

rubyfoo

withc, I hope!

2:24 am

rubyfoo

or even witch*

2:24 am

lilliann

card making

2:24 am

rubyfoo

using photos?

2:26 am

lilliann

it's on create and craft.they have all different products on different shows.card making, stamping,scrap booking, knitting, sewing, jewellery making, and more

2:26 am

rubyfoo

47 words but can't find the lonely o

2:26 am

rubyfoo

I would love that, but doubt that they have such a thing in France and I probably wouldn't understand it, anywy

2:27 am

lilliann

this one is a big christmas card kit with loads of other things on the show, but i can't buy anymore this month.i've overspent my craft budget as usual :)

2:27 am

lilliann

it's on sky if you have it ruby. channel 671

2:28 am

rubyfoo

several of our American friends use family photos and add them to a plain homemade card and write the greeting

2:28 am

lilliann

my mam watches it in france

2:28 am

rubyfoo

Fr Christmas cards are outrageously dear

2:28 am

rubyfoo

I don't know if we get sky but don't think so. I'll check later

2:29 am

lilliann

that's nice.when my daughter was younger she drew her own design at school and then they got printed up and we could buy as many packs as we wanted so everyone got one of her cards that year

2:30 am

lilliann

plus the french cards aren't that nice. my mam and dad always complain about the french cards so i always make a box up and send them over for them to send out

2:30 am

rubyfoo

monkeyed the o. now I can get dressed!

2:31 am

rubyfoo

they are tacky. Sometimes I buy postcards of "our" lake and use that was a card, requiring a letter on the back, but it's better than the "cute" ones

2:31 am

lilliann

i should too but when i've finished this i'm going back to bed as my daughter has lovingly given me her cold, bless her

2:32 am

lilliann

that sounds nice ruby

2:32 am

rubyfoo

hot water, butter and whiskey and a nap, lilliann. Then at least you'll be warm

2:32 am

rubyfoo

it feels like October here today

2:33 am

rubyfoo

*poof and hugs*

2:33 am

lilliann

i've had 2 cups of hot water with lemon and honey and a couple of paracetamol

2:33 am

lilliann

5:21 am

crosshair

i think of pottery when i hear that

5:21 am

sprite

yes, I think that is where the colour gets its name from.

5:22 am

crosshair

mmm will not take carin

5:23 am

Hi again. How are all of you tonight?

9:38 pm

Nef

(It's been hotter than a pistol here, and DH "needed" to go down to the Hennepin County courthouse to file some papers; and then didn't have all the required papers along! It's just too hot for that sort of mistake!

9:40 pm

Minveryork

Hello Nef!How are you doing this evening?Welcome to grid

9:40 pm

Nef

I'm swatting mosquitos and enjoying the A/C, Min. How are you?

9:42 pm

Minveryork

I am enjoying the AC, but I am not swatting any mosquitos

9:42 pm

Nef

I'm not sure where these came from; but I always seem to attract them if they are within 10 miles of me.

9:47 pm

Minveryork

It is definitely mosquito weather here. I was outside before and I saw them buzzing around. Isn't Minnesota known for their big mosquitos? I remember them when I lived there.

9:49 pm

Nef

yep we grow them the size of dive bombers here! ;-) They're real nasty too. I have a number of welts from them from yesterday; including one on my cheek that looks like a teenager with zits.
