Another lovely day in Oklahoma. . .

[Mackenzie Click-Mickelson]

On a happier? maybe/maybe not note humanity is still around...my husband was expecting a package from FedEx today. It got delivered while I was upstairs. I came downstairs and there's the package but also a note from the FedEx driver. They put on the note taped to the window facing the direction so I could see it from the inside that there was a baby rattlesnake chilling in the crack at the top of the stairs to get to our front door (the concrete stairs is slightly separated from the porch concrete) Bless the FedEx driver for being brave enough to come back up the stairs to even post that note (well I assume that's what they did).

It's not entirely surprising we have rattlesnakes and copperheads in our neighborhood, it's their natural habitat. My husband as well as many other neighbors have had copperheads in the landscape by the front door (shudder) and I've even walked past a coiled up copperhead several times and didn't even realize it (double shudder) but I'm sure not going to go out the front door and down the steps to verify that it's still there, or that it's a rattlesnake vs a copperhead. But I did call to let my husband know that...maybe he'll be brave enough to check when he gets home and here I was going to try and spruce up the front landscaping if we had time this weekend but nope probably not going to happen now.

Yikes Mackenzie Be careful out there! Speaking of package deliveries, we received a decorative Halloween wreath for our front doors, it looks similar to the WDWdecor

I LOVE that Ron!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Me too! I'm particularly worried about about one who started a lovely supportive thread during the early quarantine period. We haven't seen her in some time.

Tina?

 

[PollyannaMom]

Tina?

Yes

3rd attempt to post this!

Another one bit the dust. Our Chev Orlando.. sigh. It's going to be missed, when I walk around the rear of our new vehicle, I miss reading the word 'Orlando.'

This morning our lawn tractor showed signs of wanting some attention too! Yikes!!

3rd attempt successful. Security error kept me from posting, anyone else?

 

[Micca]

Jane, when you say "bit the dust" what happened? Crashed, sold, worn out???

What kind of car is that?

 

[NFLDERS]

What kind of car is that?

A Chevrolet. They didn't make many of them, and because of it parts are not easily found.

 

[Micca]

I thought it was a car that would announce to stay clear of the doors until you fastened your seatbelt.

 

[NFLDERS]

And this morning we, well mostly he (I held the steering wheel in position) took the part off that needed replacement. Apparently, it's a hex flange bearing (dh thinks I commit these tidbits of info to memory lol..) our's was well worn.

I'm trying to send three pictures (because I love looking at pictures) but again unsuccessfully.. sigh.

 

[NFLDERS]

Test..

I'm still not sure why resizing works sometimes, and not others.

 

[NFLDERS]

So now I find myself fixated on what the third shoe drop may be? We have a Bus Tour in just under two weeks, sure hope that's not in the fray!

 

[Micca]

Hey I can see the pics!
