Rayray from an Egg

Glad to hear you're feeling a little better Rayray, Come back soon ♥

It was WONDERFUL seeing you post, Ray. I'm so glad to hear that you're recovering.

Glad to see that you have improved enough to get down to your flat and boot up your computer. Hope this improvement continues

Welcome back, Rayray, your wit, wisdom and poetry have been sadly missed here. Wishing you a speedy continued recovery and please come back whenever you feel able.

Sorry, just had to bring the chickens out to dance for this occasion!!

Welcome back Rayray .
Bon guerison

Stopping in for a visit, Rayray, to wish you the best of health and to let you know you're in my thoughts!

Rayray...I have been thinking about you and sending cyber love and support to help you through this crisis...we were so worried about you...I hope you are back in top form really soon...I have missed you so much.
probably not...how about...

Welcome back Rayray!
You have been missed! I hope your being here means you are feeling much better. Thanks for letting some of our members know your condition. Everyone was quite worried.
Keeping good thoughts for you!
Love and

So glad you are back. You were sorely missed. We couldn't even find any sheep to count. Baaahh

"Too funny" is a fairly common phrase around here. I am surprised that you picked up on it. It's either because you, too, are familiar with it and are returning the banter, or else that it's a North American thing and it takes you by surprise.
Assuming the latter (though I am appreciative for the former), I'll help you understand the phrase.
The phrase "too funny" is often given here as a complimentary response to someone who has said something amusing. It comes from the phrase "that's too funny for words," and is roughly the spoken colloquial equivalent of a thumbs up "thank you" for someone's humor.
The implicit meaning is that you can't top what the person said with something even more funny, and/or that you feel you can't otherwise adequately convey your sense of amusement.
Now, did you know that already, or is this news to you?

Hi Rayray! I'm glad you're well. Hopefully well enough to be you're usual creative self. I could only find one sheep for you I hope things are settled for you.

Hi, Rayray! I wanted to let you know how much you were missed while you were ill and how thrilled we are to have you back posting again! I hope your recovery continues until you feel even better than before the medical emergency! It's good to see your posts! Welcome baa-aa-aa-aack!

Your hospital poem was so THERE!
(Very glad you are back HERE!)

Hi, Rayray!

I've just been catching up on recent posts since I haven't been able to spend much time on site recently. I saw the poem you posted yesterday. Brilliant! It was so real it gave me the willies! What a horror you went through! I hope it's therapeutic for you to write about your experience. In any case, we are all so glad to have you back and writing poetry again!!

Rayray have you visited my grand daughters blog
http://vampirewannabe.blogspot.com/
she is being encouraged in creative writing at school. I would like to hear what you think. By the way she is 10 years old

You'll see the previous posting twice. I meant to post it here but posted it to easy so now it is here. Obviously I banged my head during the arrested action of the cartwheel!!!

Hi Rayray...just dropped by to say g'day....
When I look at what Heidi has survived and Susan being underwater twice in a week I am scarcely game to comment on our weather....
But I will anyway!
I am melting!
47 degree Celsius = 116.6 degree Fahrenheit
Your little pal, Broad Bean, is about to really and truly become a
If my brain ever starts to function again after being overheated I'll write you a PROPER letter.
Take care. Hope you are continuing to recover without setbacks.
Love and all that guff..

Ray Ray,
I have been remiss in welcoming you back to the site...I'm so sorry for the delay...
It wasn't because I didn't miss you , but simply put...I was continually distracted...Often one means to do something and is pulled towards another as thoughts pop into our heads...
However, I am so very happy that you have received medical treatment, and are slowly regaining your strength. You have really been through the mill. May you continue to improve and once more be returned to full good health. Welcome back...Its a pleasure to once again see your comments daily. Peace

Happy Valentine's Day dear one! A day of love and hugs to you!

Dear Rayray,

I was saddened to hear of the passing of your beloved cat. Jaime and I have had cats all our married life which have given us much joy, and it is always sorrowful to lose them. I hope you (and/or your friends) get a replacement when the time is right. I could not imagine ever being without a furry little friend. (The last two cats found us on their own - we didn't even have to go "cat shopping").

Ray, losing a pet is so difficult and sad.
Remember you gave and received unconditional love.
I like to think all our beloved animals are waiting patiently for us to join them.....

Rayray.
Being a cat person, I know how much this sucks.

Hello Rayray - I can't begin to tell you how much you were missed. It is so good to have you back! I hope your days from here on are sunny ones! I am sorry to hear about your cat. Losing a beloved pet is often like losing a family member.

Rayray - I am so sad with the news of your loss of Emma...just caught wind of it and am so sorry to not have been here to console you earlier.
I love my Panda kitty more than I do my husband - and I love my husband DEARLY.
I hope your pain is easing. It has been a rough start to the year for you. Sending you a hug and blessings dear one.

Rayray, in light of your internet problem I thought this little ditty I found in the newspaper (in an article of Texan farm poets) : "From the time you were born, till you ride in a hearse, nothing so bad that it can't get worse.

Dropping by to tell you how much I loved the dandelion poem, Ray. I laughed out loud at "I call my family siblings 'cos we're all hermaphrodite"
Only you.....

Yes, rayray, they make fillings out of mercury- laced amalgams in the US also. Ironic that the word 'mal' is hidden in that word!

SNAP

Rayray, I think our minds are similarly warped! When I read Ian's average nymph post, I immediately thought the same as you posted, one enormously tall wood nymph would skew the curve and more than 50% would be below average.

It is so nice to know I am not singularly warped hehehe. Thanks for saying that much better (and in a more timely fashion) than I could have.

Rayray, I must admit my first thoughts on the matter were purely mathematical, but moved quickly to the fact there would have to be an actual gynormous wood nymph to skew the curve. Pleasantly mad minds seem capable of such flights of fancy

Rayray, You refer to my quilts as art? Thank ye kindly sir! it takes a pleasantly mad person to buy perfectly lovely and sometimes quite expensive fabric, cut it into little pieces, rearrange them and then sew them back together again, resulting in an item to keep a body warm on a cold winter's night. That same goal could have been accomplished at a fraction of the cost and none of the labor with a trip to Linens and Things white sale. .

It only takes a bit of mathematics, flights of fancy, and the ability to "listen to your quilt-in-progress". Once you start the design, the quilt will tell you which way you should go. The really good ones, I was listening. The diversity is the quilts fault.

Verse from rayray on my page -- that's a compliment. I've been enjoying your posts very much, btw.

Rayray - I loved your dandelion poem! Somehow I missed it when it was posted. I think Ian's comment was spot on when he asked if you were referring to the human condition. When you think about it, all forms of life begin in a similar fashion. Some people are fortunate enough to have a life that takes root in a strong foundation; others, alas, do not, but continue to drift about their entire lives. Well done, my friend!

PS - I'll leave it to your imagination to figure out which type of person I am......hehehe

Hi Rayray! I always seem to be behind in reading comments on Easy. Sometimes I never do manage to find time to read them all. Just today I found your poem about Spring & had to come & tell you how much I liked it. I'm glad you are feeling better & back to posting more often like you used to. Was it a ruptured appendix you had? When was that? I believe it may have been back when we were in SE Asia. Anyway, it's quite obvious that your mind is as good as ever even if your body suffered a defect!

Rayray - I really enjoyed your masterful poem on the universe, although it left me with a vague sense of malaise. I don't know why exactly, I guess it's because you've put into words what I've always sensed - that we are but mere mortals, cogs, if you will, in the unstoppable forces of nature. Keep them coming, good friend!

just hopping in to wish you a very Happy Easter Rayray...and a season full of joy!

Hi Ray
Hopping in behind Vici to wish you a

Hope all is well with you. Stay healthy and happy, my friend

Hi Ray! I must admit I was getting a little concerned because you hadn't posted for awhile. I was happy to hear you were off visiting friends. I hope it was an enjoyable time for you. I shall try and wait patiently for your next poetic offering...
Take care.
P.S. I forgot to send you your Easter sheep!
