Rick took a bunch of my old gemstone jewelry that I dont wear anymore and the rings dont fit anymore. Rick was at the pawn shop for a little over an hour and a half he said that this person went through each piece and then had to consult with another person. And then I also had old cannon that I wasn’t using anymore and I he took that along and I had all the instructions and charger and the batteries and everything else. So when he came home to tell me about this and I said well how much… Read more »

Good morning I tried to register our new Hoover carpet cleaner and it never fails one of the numbers they ask for they say isnt right….every time. So I had to call them ….what happened to the days when you could mail in the “postcard”? I colored my hair yesterday. The Catalina Mountains are on fire again. Someone caught the lightning that started the fire. I was outside for awhile watching it burn. I will go to Target to return the cutting board we didnt care for and WM to return the dish strainer that is flat, not sloped so… Read more »

Hi Ardy,

Again I am not able to post my comment this morning. This happened a couple weeks ago…grrrr.

So sorry about the fires near you, it is horrible to see them.

Good luck with the returns today. I bought a small metal type dish drainer for Brunswick, it was a store brand and fit just right in the sink, which is not too big.

Good Saturday morning.
Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
A bright sunny start to the day and the temp begins to rise into next week.
Two days next week are said to go up to 90F again the whole week will stay in the 80F range
Still no let up on the horizon yet no rain forecast for a few more weeks yet.
Up at 5-30 this morning rather a humid night again.
Off to get the paper before it gets too hot again see you all soon.😀😘

Good morning Ice,

That is not an optimistic outlook for your weather, especially no rain. Very scary with things so dry now. 😯

Hi Jenn.
Checking the weather again we will be getting another neat wave but the bad thing is that humidity is going to high at night time. Might be kicking that Summer Duvet off on a couple of nights.
They are already predicting a shortage of particularly potatoes and dairy produce eg: cheese, milk etc.
I must have my cheese whatever the price.lol.
Many fires springing up in various parts of the country every thing is tinder dry now🙄😘

Hi Ice
I don’t like the sounds of your future cast with no rain, heat wave and high humidity. I hate it for you that there could be a shortage of dairy products like cheese. I certainly hope you’re able to continue getting the cheese that you enjoy 😘

Update on Rick: Rick’s incredibly picky about food and is not eating as much as he should be. Chuck said we’ll have to fatten him up, since his jeans are falling off. 😟 He’s able to grasp a glass of water with his right hand; still struggling a bit with walking; it’s only been 3 weeks. We have a walker here for him. Chuck will attend a class/PT session on Tues, then spend the night in a little apartment set aside for such. Rick’s being released from captivity on Weds! 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️ Everything he needs is on the main floor here… Read more »

Hi Pam.
Slow but sure for Rick, as you said early days but he seems to be on the home run eventually.😘🙏

Good news for Rick, holding a glass of water is a good sign of control with his hand.💙

Hi Pam
Good improvement for Rick being able to hold a glass of water.
Since Rick’s been without his cigarettes while in the hospital and rehab I hope he doesn’t resume smoking again once he’s back home next week.

My Dad used mineral oil on our cutting boards; they were lovely. When he passed, Mom put it in the dishwasher 😂 I am certain, he looked at her from Heaven, shook his head and said “Honey, Honey”. 🤗
