Should I?

Hee hee, first time I actually saw that coming...

Suzy, you turned that page so nicely, and without a broom!

MizTricia - I think you teasing us "Northerners" about your daffodils and flower pots! It is so cold up here today.

another HOT day for Perth expected.
Nice Cool Breeze this morning.. have my windows and doors open to let the breeze waffle thru the house.. as soon as there is a hint of warmth to the breeze.. will close all doors and windows.
Fingers Cross the AC man comes to fix my Airconditiner today.

Rolanda, good luck with the AC. I hope it's quick and inexpensive. (I also believe in the Easter Bunny.)

Well it looks as if there has been some welcomed new SA3ers and some unpleasant decisions for Lynda regarding her horse, Preparations for a new bath at Rola's and sever cold weather in much of the US....guess the rest is just us being us....chatting away. Lynda, My prayers go out to you as you watch a beloved animal reach her end....no matter how often it happens,it still hurts. Orianna, So glad you found us....this is a special group of folks above and beyond the site ladies...Miz T, I have stared the book and am enjoying it a lot. Your comment makes me want to reach the point you are to check my reaction...I'm still getting to know the characters...and I already have my favorites....lol. Must run now...dinner is ready....hope to catch up with someone later if I can get back.

Rolanda, I have a sloppy joe on today. I'm wondering what happened to summer this year. Not that I'm complaining! I prefer this to melting....

Well Suzy, come to Perth, and you will know what happened to Summer !!
am not much fond of the melting either

So summer moved west this year Rolanda... Maybe by next summer it will have moved all the way west and back to the east again....

Ruby, when my Cherubs were little, at Easter, after lunch we would all take the kids to the park.
Grandy (FIL) would volunteer to stay behind and do the dishes..
Upon our return from the Park, the kiddywinks were all excited !! Easter Bunny had been and left his footprints all over the yard, so off we would go hunting for the easter eggs in the garden.
Meanwhile Grandy would be scratching his head. wondering why he never saw the Easter Bunny come by !!

We live in hopes Suzy, that it will go East next Summer, usually comes back year after year after year to the West !! SIGH !!!
We ( Hubby and I) are away this weekend in the Caravan with friends.. The Temp. predicted for the weekend : Sat 38C , Sun 39C,
Thank goodness the Caravan Park has a large beautiful pool!!

Unfortunately for me Rolanda, if I even think about going outside in that weather I get a painful sunburn so the pool wouldn't help me at all. Hubby is sure I burn in the rain!

It seems to rain here every easter so the easter bunny leaves the eggs inside. Or at least he did when the kids were younger.

am a bit like that myself Suzy.. but will be slip slop slaping all weekend !!
well off to wash the floors (the last of the cleaning for the day), close all the windows and doors ...
bye for now.. later aligator

Washing floors??? Wasn't I supposed to be doing that today too???? Nah! Must have been someone else...

Suzy, I have worked it out that the kids get roughly 14 weeks off with all the holidays and odd days added together. Teachers don't get quite as many as they have days of training to attend when school is out.
I think I was supposed to do that chore too....it will get done another day

Brenda, teachers get three 'pupil free' days a year here. Scheduled school days, but the kids stay home. These days are usually scheduled ofr the first day of a new term, though it varies between schools, and they have training on those days. So every new term mothers call each other and ask if anyone remembers if the first day is pupil-free or not.

Okay Susy and Brenda.. you are let off the hook.. I have cleaned ALL the floors.

now off to the Doctors.. for the 'Women's Health Check'

Ladies I thank you from the bottom of my heart, your prayers must be mighty powerful. With TLC and a lot of medication we can get her through this, the vet was quite upbeat this morning. She is eating again. The day will come for tears one day but not today, she is over 30 which is pretty old in horse years. But for now thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers, a great comfort.

Linda, I'm glad she's got a little more time. Please give he a pat for me. Thanks.

Lynda, I am so pleased. We have contemplated putting "Boy"..our old horse down a couple of times(Bad arthritis) and when he got the horse flu we thought that would be the end but the medication from that has given him a new lease on life. Lets hope it is the same for your grand old Lady.

Suzy, we have had it quite warn here. I played in the Club Fours Championship Final(we lost) and it was VERY WARM standing out in the sun. The March flies put in an early appearance and I got bitten twice!!!

Hi everyone.

Lynda, I'm sorry. I just skimmed through and didn't catch all of your post. But, am glad to hear that she's eating. I'll keep you and her in my thoughts.

Okay, MizT and the rest of you. While your basking or baking in the heat, I'm sitting here freezing my tushy off. And it's snowing.

Rena, too bad you live so far away. Hubby's been thinking of getting rid of his pickup.

Speaking of which, he started his new job today and brought home all kinds of insurance paperwork for me to fill out. 3 different apps for 3 different companies that cover different things.

Where's my manners? Debby to SA3.

Becky, if you tushy is showing that's probably why its freezing, cover it up, that will keep it a bit warmer . If you leave it out you will get cheeks

that was very 'cheeky' of you Cous !!

Finely, it is 'cool' in the house.. yeah the AC man came and fixed

Rolanda - thank you for doing the floors for me! I have way too many of them in this house and it is such a tedious job.

Yay Linda!

Good morning all! Another winter storm heading our way today. Busy trying to get our taxes done (hubby mostly doing it) because they have to be done early for the financial aid applications for all of the schools. Washing the floors has not been on my agenda for quite some time! Rolanda, send some of that heat this way, we'll split the difference!

Lynda, so glad to hear that your horse will make it through this crisis. Even when they are old, it is hard to let them go.

Becky, I was thinking about you last night wondering how the storm was going. I figured you would get hit with it first. It's not supposed to get here until this afternoon.

June wonderful that Boy was able to overcome horse 'flu, it really takes it out of them. My old lady has arthritis. We give her Rose Cottage A mix it really helps. She seems quite peaceful tonight but very indignant that she was conned into taking her medicine. Thanks again everyone she has been told how many people are expecting her to get well.

HI MAMA, I have finished the book, and it was good till the last page. Who were your favorite characters? There were a couple of them I loved to hate hehe.

Rolanda you put me to shame, my floor still needs washing but never mind it will give me something to do another day

Temperature here still warm for the time of year, 14C which is probably double what it should be for February. We took the dog out for a walk around the (man made)lake and ended up having lunch out, sitting outside near the lake it was lovely and warm.

Hi all! Thanks for your help on the conversion numbers Suzy. I found lots of help here yesterday...all the talk about floors helped me stay away from the pooter long enough to make a start....cleaned 1 and 1/2 baths...still another to go and managed to vacuum most of the house...still need to get into the kitchen in a big way....cabinets, fridge and stuff....but that will need to wait for more inspiration. I've even managed to get some wash done....think I'll finish that tomorrow too....play time now, before I have to get in the kitchen to fix dinner....its my turn tonight...darn it!

Miz T...I'm still meeting some of these folks in the book....I've only gotten through 122 pages, but have found several folks that fit the 'love to hate' tag. At this point though I'll reserve judgment until I get further into the book. I am enjoying it though...but I have so many irons in the fire right now that I'm not able to spend as much time reading as I'd like. Plus, I've run into a green eyed monster here, every time I pick up the book. Seems he thinks I'm spending too much time between the pooter and the books. He accepts the pooter more easily because he doesn't know when I'm working or playing (he really doesn't know anything about the pooter,nor does he want to learn), but when I'm reading, he claims to feel shut out. Since I don't want to alienate him too much...I've been trying to be more attentive.....oh the things one must do to keep harmony in the home.

MAMA, I get the same thing from my hubby, if I am reading, I am ignoring him. It does not matter that he is glued to the TV and goes SHHHH if I try to talk to him, that is not ignoring me for some reason. I do my reading when he is on his computer, mostly, or out in the shop or office.
