Hi everyone -
Yeah, took a bit of a break. Kept up & read this & other threads. Just didn't have a whole lot to add! Was also traveling for work (stayed at a neat art deco place in FL called the Don Cesar, it was nice) and then I spent a few days with my folks putting in windows and a front door. I think my parents might be the only ones in their 70's building a house doing a lot of it themselves. The old man is laying brick, along with a helper, this week.
Good afternoon.
Marty went home this morning!
So glad they are all home together. Hoping for a visit down to them this weekend.
DH and I went out for exciting errands this morning. First we went to metal recycling and made $12.60 getting junk out of the house. (@easyas123, aren't you jealous?) Speaking of, she has been missing from the thread but I checked and she is still "Reacting" to posts.
Then we went to the library, pharmacy. CFA, gas station, and a home made candy store to get chocolate eggs for Easter. Glad we went early as they said they had supply issues and once they sold what was there, they were out. They had a good selection today but it won't last long.
Guilty! I've been laying low. Sometimes I feel like I've run out of stuff to say.
That is awesome news about Marty going home. Congrats to your son & daughter in law!
Plus a good friend ended up going in for triple bypass last week. He was fine up until then, and so that was a shock. He came thru and is up and bugging the nurses with inappropriate jokes, so I guess that is a good sign.
Unless you are his nurse -
I dunno...my mind just has been occupied I guess.
$12.60- nice haul! Will they take silo's???????? One of these days we gotta get ours down and to the scrap yard. Husband keeps telling me isn't not worth much but I keep saying "BUT IT'S A WHOLE SILO, HOW CAN'T IT BE WORTH ANYTHING?!?!".
Should have just gone to D'Atris and gotten him a large one
Oh - D'Atris is a
banned word in our household. As you know my husband grew up in your neck of the woods, and boy do they do go on about that place! I grew up in South Jersey & across the river from Philly so we, well we have to agree to disagree ha ha!
I'm glad your stepdaughter is doing well. Recovery from any surgery, especially one so invasive is never fun. Hope all goes well for her.
Husband is home spraying fields before tomorrows rain. We are planting a few acres of "for fun" experimental stuff to see how we like it for future plantings. Several types of sunflowers. Field corn, and a type of dwarf corn. Also trying some hemp (for the deer as part of our mitigation food plot that diverts them from the vineyard, evidently they love it) and Egyptian wheat for the first time. It's all going to be one big experiment, which is fun. Plus we plan on planting a fair bit of wild flowers & cutting flowers.
I don't mind cold pizza. If I reheat it I don't like it reheated in the microwave, so often I will just eat it cold vs. standing there over the stovetop.
Let's see...I know I'm missing a ton of replies to the thread, sorry! Snowysmom - I hope your bid was high, but if not good luck on the next one!
AuntieMe - Have a awesome time on your cruise! We were supposed to be flying out to Budapest late this afternoon at 5:30 for a trip to Austria & Hungary
but we had to push our trip back to later this year. I'm glad someone else is out there & going though!
Dinner tonight? spinach and ricotta ravioli or turkey burgers or grilled chicken or bacon & eggs. We will see what we feel like when I get home! Strike turkey burgers from the list...I don't have burger rolls. Oh well. Oh yeah - Lyn speaking of Nathan's fries they had a few bags at the grocery store this past weekend and I looked at them, but didn't get a bag because I thought I had some. I did not, and now your comment has me hitting the grocery store tomorrow to stock up on a bag or two of them. Honestly - those frozen Nathan's french fries are to good!
How about that Bruce Willis news? So sad, that's one guy who you don't hear anything bad about and seems to have found a way to be a good family man and well loved by his family.
Later gators - (speaking of gators - is it me or is Disney digging itself into a big old hole? Talk about no-win, I'm kinda shocked to see not one mention of it on these boards. Sorry, I know we steer clear of politics on this thread...but dang it's a big fat news story and odd that it hasn't been brought up on other threads. Oh well )
It is not showing me the yellow, etc. other choices. I was sure hoping we'd also finally be able to do a search for particular smilies like we could long ago. That was so handy to do. For example type in "chick" and it would bring up all the yellow chickies. Will check later. Hope it works for the rest of you in the meantime.
