Bonz and Rie, I wish you both a very, very happy birthday. I always celebrate late so that I stand out from the crowd AND extend your time to party. I once helped an elderly friend celebrate all month long!
Bonz, I hope you are talking about all those problems in your motel room rather than your house, after all a motel is temporary and someone else is responsible for cleaning and repairs. I like the seat over by the waterfall at Boma's.
Ants, I am so hoping that after they get me all fixed up that I will not get worn our just READING about your adventures and can have some of my very own. You sure do have a string of suitors, deservedly so. I am shocked that they do not follow you home though.
Pooh, my birthday will be July 25th. Yep, I am a Leo. Shocking is it not?

I hope you get your laptop back and it is fine. Do you have a backup drive? A one touch is best because you are more apt to actually do it.
Ang, I took a shower and washed my hair today. Oh, joy!! It has been several days and I stunk.

Sure to improve my disposition for sure. I am going to volunteer to pass out supplies this afternoon. They gave me a sit down job. I think I can do that one.
I just chatted with a DIS friend from just south of me and they are fine too. The newspaper is full of sad stories. One lady, 67, lost her fully paid for home. Imagine starting over again at that age and without much money? Lots of uplifting stories of people doing heroic things too.
Mom2Evie, I have always thought that you were awesome but to hear that you can yell 'Stop it' and make earthquakes quit their trembling and rumbling???

I tend to close my eyes and scream when really bad things happen and it has never helped.
I have things to clean. Lots of things to clean. No laundry yet as the water pressure is too fragile for that but sure is better than nothing.
BTW, Timmie, this would be a good time to visit me as I have a backyard full of Marines.
