We're very well- been working on our outside area - still in preparation for the rest of the pool fencing that needs to go in.

How are you and are the rest of the family still away?

Tim and I had a grand week together, and Rob and Caya had a lovely vacation. In a few days, Rob and I will leave for 5 days, to a canoe camp. First time the kids will stay home together, grin. I hope the house will still be standing when we return!
1:28 am
Lizlin
I'm sure it'll be standing - what will have gone on in between is another matter!
1:28 am
Lizlin
I hope the weather is good for you on the canoe camp.
1:28 am
sprite
what is the problem with the cuckatoos getting into the pool? Their dung?
1:28 am
Lizlin
No - they're destructive little things - not so little. They try to chew the caps off the top of the fence posts.
1:29 am
sprite
me too. But if not, I am the lucky one. I have a small backpacker's hut, with a real bed in it. I can always hide in there, lol.

Got to go for a while - need to Skype.

My daughter who lives in Maine is on a road trip with a friend (and the friend's dog!) to visit friends in Ann Arbor, but I just got a sweet email -- and when I got home from transporting 3 rescue pups yesterday, a pkge was waiting for me from her -- a lovely card and a loaf of homemade blueberry bread she had made with berries she picked herself -- love my precious girl :-)

Ha ha! Indeed.
9:32 am
hego
Or always having my back.
9:33 am
Judi
Apparently "hodge" is no good without "podge".
9:33 am
hego
They're a team.
9:34 am
Judi
Such mutual dependency.
9:38 am

Name that proper noun: Famous WWII General.

I'll bet the food and wine flowed.
9:49 am
Judi
Sounds wonderful, Dorens. ***Jealous***
9:49 am
Dorens
yes I am. ridiculously lucky. The food and wine were outstanding.. jogging two miles a day every morning trying to undo the damage!
9:50 am
Judi
Off to breakfast! *POOF*
9:50 am
Dorens
hiked a "difficult" trail half way down into the grand canyon with my buddy who is an experienced hiker (I'm not) and back.
9:51 am
hego
Saw the pics. Beautiful.
9:52 am
Dorens
No pics in Napa (Ruru doesn't allow, you know) but great food and wine. One night it was with my old high school buddy and son/d.i.l. -- a real trip!

(where's hurshy when you need her?)
11:20 am
MollyL
Not to be mistaken for one who has eaten there, but I have high aspirations. Your friend Wolfgang's place, right?
11:20 am
rururocks
correct..
11:21 am
rururocks
I have only eaten there 5 times myself. I like to try new places in LA when I HAVE to go (emphasis on have)
11:21 am
rururocks
But I had dinner there with Al Stewart (sp?) the year of the cat guy with some other clients
11:22 am
rururocks
Spago is very good.. but when Wolfgang is there it can be great.
11:24 am
rururocks
High aspirations are good molly.. but then you'd have to visit LA which is a chore unless you bring tons of dough to do it right
11:24 am
MollyL
My kids took me to a nice seafood place yesterday. Nothing spectacular, but the food was good and the company was the most important part. We celebrate Mother's Day a day early because one of my boys is a restaurant manager and he has to cater to "other Mothers" today.
11:25 am
rururocks
ah.. that's nice.
11:25 am
MollyL
Oh damn, thanks a pant load for The Year Of The Cat ear worm.
11:25 am

I spent yesterday with my SIL and her eldest. I hope they do something nice for her.
11:25 am
rururocks
I sent a nice pet rock to my mom.
11:26 am
rururocks
I bet restaurants are totally nuts today
11:27 am
mcurlschool
we decided to not attempt going out to eat today. My kids all showed up yesterday and surprised me with a chocolate fondue party! We had a great time.
11:28 am
rururocks
aw.. that's nice
11:28 am
rururocks
I think if you plan WAAAAAY in advance you can do the restaurant thing..but otherwise it would be a nightmare
11:29 am
rururocks
I wish it were different with my Mom.. but cest la vie
11:30 am
MollyL
If my kids are ever available on the actual day, I opt for steaks cooked on the grill at home, by them. Restaurants on Mother's Day are a zoo.
11:31 am
rururocks
you're blessed to have a great relationship with your kids.. and isn't that the greatest gift?
11:31 am
MollyL
Hey, if you don't luck out in the "mother department", the best you can do is be grateful for the nice Mothers you know. Sounds like you did that with your sister in law.
11:32 am
rururocks
yes.. and I took care of Doren too.. she's a great mother too
11:32 am
MollyL
It is a good gift. My kids are good people.
11:32 am
rururocks
My SIL is a great mom.. she and I click.. she's great for my nephews
11:33 am
rururocks
I appreciate good parents when I see them.. I have great respect for what it takes to be one
11:35 am
MollyL
Being a parent has been my best gig. Not an easy job, but some of the rewards are outstanding.
11:36 am
rururocks
now that I have a really good relationship with my nephews.. I think I could have been a decent parent. I didn't think that growing up.. so I never had kids
11:40 am
MollyL
Sometimes, nephews need a good Father figure. Life works out in amazing ways.
11:40 am
rururocks
I think if I could have had kids and the popped out at 10 years old.. I'd have been great
11:40 am
rururocks
they popped out at..
11:41 am
rururocks
Well my nephews needs a solid male influence that's for sure... I'm trying my best
11:41 am
MollyL
Well, since finding a woman willing to give birth to a ten year old would have been tough, I think you did the best you could.

do you know of any good organic wines?
2:04 pm
rururocks
I'd recommend a nice zinfandel.. a nice moderate one is the 2012 or 13 Seghesio Sonoma County Zin (comes in half bottles too) should be $15 or less in 750 .. probably about $10 in a half bottle. It would be great with snacks. really tasty stuff.. also the 2013 Domaine de la Solitude Cotes du Rhone would work.. be about $12-$14 I also really like the Georges Duboeuf Fleurie 13 too
2:04 pm

2:10 pm

rururocks
Whites: 2013 Francois Chidane Touraine Sauvignon, NV Bohigas Reserva Cava (sparkling Spanish wine), 2013 Henri Pelle Menetou Salon Morogues (Sauvignon Blanc), 2013 Lafon Macon Villages are all organic and lovely wines and well under $20 each.
2:11 pm
rururocks
it's the histamines in red wine that give the headaches.. if you take one benedryl before you drink red wine.. it will help prevent headaches.
2:11 pm
hego
I never knew that.
2:12 pm
rururocks
tannins make the red wines seem drier and more bitter.. the reds I mentioned aren't tannic
2:12 pm
hego
I would try it, but I might nod off.
2:12 pm
rururocks
yeah.. that's the thing.. some people are affected by benedryl in that way.. so take it an hour before
2:13 pm
hego
I'll be nice and mellow. :)
