That didn't do it...so I'll try again...

Ahhhh, perserverance pays off...
Now I'm going to see if I can update my gallery with some newer pictures of my Earth Angel....I'll let you know if I got the job done.

Morning all!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Stella and Mr Stella!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Broni!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Jane!

A day for celebrations. I hope you all have a great one!

Yikes Brenda! That's a lot of money!

Stella, it's not great to be tired on your anniversary. Hopefully you will be able to celebrate.

Gail, have a great time. I'll miss you!

June, the dance troop did extremely well to make it to the Rock Eisteddfod final! I'll have to check out who won because one of the local schools was doing really well in that at one point.

Vici, hope your addition is finished soon. I'll cross a few things for you too...

Heidi, maybe when you've been married 30 years anniversaries become like birthdays... I hope you are just reacting to the cough you have had and it's not something new.

Bean, my garden next!

Mamacita, great TOPP!

Good Morning SA8.
Thank you all for your birthday wishes.
Happy Birthday Jane.
Happy anniversay Stella and Heidi.

I am trying hard to wake up....
Need another coffee and maybe that will do the trick!
Good washing day... must go feed the machine...
Hopefully by the time I return my brain will be in gear...

Broni
Jane
Happy Anniversary Stella and Hubby
Happy Anniversary Heidi and Gil

Hope I didn't miss anyone.

Hi Bean, How are you doing today?

Since I scared all my friends away I guess I will go to sleep. Have a great day/night wherever you may be.

I'm back...
Sleep tight Tami...
Tis truly terrible the way people flee when TTT is around...hope you don't get a complex Tami
LOL

Talk about scaring people away Bean.
Have we heard from MizT recently?

MizT dropped in on the 8th. It looks like the chiropracter appointment she had that day didn't help. I wish they'd hurry up with her epidural!

I'm awake again. The whole pack of dogs descended on me to let me know it's supper time And now I forget what it was that I was gonna say........

Oh, yeah.... Judy... the swelling in the hand is almost gone. Almost. I still have kidney bean sized lump in the back of the hand, and it's still uncomfy to use, but the color is back to normal. Considering that it's been 6 weeks, I'm pretty sure that I did fracture a bone.

Thanks Zusy.
Good to see you around Heidi, how are you feeling any better?

Broni, there was that lightning strike thing too.

Heidi, I'm trying to imagine that many dogs descending on you!

Off to do Friday afternoon stuff! Have a good one!

I have a Vet appointment tomorrow for 2 of my horses. The most important one is for my Morgan, Buddy. He and I have been nearly soul mates for the last 15 years. He was the perfect riding horse.... then both of our backs gave out at the same time. Since he could never be ridden again, I taught him to drive ( a buggy). Right before I broke my leg 2 years ago, he broke his. Same leg. He's been retired ever since. Now that same leg is hurting him something fierce. I'm afraid that he has re-fractured it. The other horse is a Paint mare... Miss Kitty (I DID NOT name her). She has developed a tumor on a leg. Golf ball sized and shaped. It looks benign, though.

Suzy... it is physically impossible to sleep with that many dogs crowded around, or piled on top, all determined to wake you up. I think that there were 7 or 8 piled on top of the bed alone.

Hello to Everyone!

Happy Belated 30th anniversary to Heidi and hubby! Heidi, I hope you don't have mono again. Get better soon!

Happy 26th anniversary to Stella and hubby!

Yay, Vici! Soon to be able to move into the addition. How are you feeling these days?

It's good to see Mamacita dropping by!

MizT, I hope you're starting to feel better!

Wishes to Jane and Broni! Have a great day!

June, how nice that "your" school got to the finals! That's quite an accomplishment!

Nola, belated birthday wishes to Kailah and Maddylain who are 2yrs old! I'm glad Greg found out what was causing his pain. I hope it passes quickly!

Afternoon all. Took MIL to bingo this morning but we did not win anything. We then took her hearing aides to get the wax removed as she could not hear anything. We are going to a local production of 'Cats' tonight. I had a Nana nap in the sun this afternoon. It was lovely!
Suzy there are two divisions of the Rock Eisteddfod, one with backdrops and the 'raw' which has a budget of $2500 and no backdrops. That is the one D1's school entered this year.

June, I found something that says the local school made the finals. I also found that they came second last year. I'm not sure what division they're in, but they won a stage crew award which suggests they were in the 'other' division to D1s school.

Hello everyone!
Warmish, but very windy today. The sun is shining, which is lovely - my jasmine has started flowering! Also some of my favourites have opened - ixias and sparaxis. I love this time of year when all the pretties start coming out - everything smells so nice!

Heidi, glad the hand feels better - it does sound as if something was broken.

Very busy at Bean's yesterday, digging in the dirt and pulling up weeds - indeed, "I think the answer lies in the soil!"

I seem to have caught the bug - spent all day in my own garden today - had to come in when it started getting dark! This post has been sitting unfinished for many hours, so will finish it before I trot down the street to do all the things I was going to do, but got side-tracked. But it does feel good to have done some "real" work! :)

I might have to get out into my garden soon, my gardener seems to have disappeared I haven't see him since a couple of weeks before I went away so it is 5 weeks since he was here so you can imagine what my lawn is like

Hello everyone!
Happy Birthday to Jane, today!
Happy 30th (WOW) Anniversary to Heidi and Mr. Heidi!
Yikes Brenda! You better get MzT and her riding mower over to take care of your lawn!
Judy and June - loved hearing about the sun coming out...I love when spring starts to peek it's head into the yard! Looking forward to seeing everything abloom when I arrive!

Yay! the big 5 - 0!!!
Happy Birthday Lizzie! Enjoy your dinner tonight with the family.

Hi all.
I didn't manage to get back the other day and consequently,missed Broni's and Jane's Birthday,and Heidi and Stella's anniversary.
Hope you all enjoyed a great day.
Happy birthday Lizzy for today.
There is too much to go back and comment on,so will just say I have been thinking of you all while I had a good rest on the lounge yesterday.Didn't feel the best so I watched a few dvd's but slept through most of them.Now I feel fine again.

Hope you all have a good day/night.I'm going to hang the washing out,so will catch you all another time.Bye.

Nola... I'm glad you slept. The body usually knows the best way to heal.

I'm back from the Vet's. I figured that Miss Kitty had a tumor on her leg. When the Vet saw it, he thought it was a condition called "proud flesh". In either case, it had to be surgically removed. It was perfectly round, and a little bigger than a golf ball. Once the Vet removed it, we checked it out. It was a tumor. It looked benign, so we didn't send it to the lab.
Buddy has a badly inflamed tendon. It's quite swollen and painful. His leg is now tightly wrapped and he's on anti-inflamatories and pain killers. Both horses will have to be kept up in their stalls for the next 3 weeks.

Good Morning SA8.
Liz, hope you have a great day.
Hope you are feeling better today Heidi.
Beautiful sunny day here today.

Hello All...The weather has been cold and rainy most of the day...befitting the many memorials for those who died 8 years ago today .....
May they rest In Peace!
Glad to have a happier note and wish to use it to say Happy Birthday Dizzy Lizzy...May it simply be a wonderful welcoming to the rest of your life...
Wishing all have the best day possible...and you can always start over if it dosen't work the first time....Peace.

Good Morning Mama.
Sounds like the sky is in mourning, most befitting. Yes we shall celebrate our lives and not live in fear.

Dizzy Lizzy. Hope your day is extra special just like you.

Mamacita, it was also a rainy day down here. It did seem fitting for today. Hope all is well with everyone. I am going to say goodnight and go to sleep early. I will be back tomorrow.

Gee where is everyone?? You must all have a life other than here!!

Hi June I thought it was quiet when I looked in earlier.
How is your MIL's visit going?
Gail is away so we will not see anything from her till I think she said Tuesday.

Good morning all! Just a quick stop because Ian has a soccer game this morning, about an hour away. It's been a busy week for soccer, this is his 4th game. Yesterday afternoon they played in the pouring rain and it was only 58F! We were drenched and frozen! Hopefully the rain will stop this morning. Brendan also has a soccer game later near NYC. I'm thinking of going if I can find the energy. If I do then I'll just keep going onto Long Island to visit my mom. Jerry's dad is coming tomorrow for a couple of days to assess what things need to be done and the supplies. Then he'll pick up my mil(visiting friends and relatives by their old house) and go to the wine country for a couple of days before coming back here for a week or so.
