Good Afternoon! It’s around 5 PM and I’m just checking in for the first time today. Sunny and 78 going down to 51 overnight. Craig started having some sinus congestion yesterday and it’s worse today. Despite that he kept his sports announcing commitments. This evening he’ll be announcing Queens Men’s Soccer which is scheduled to start at 6 PM. Craig expects to be home by around 8:30 PM. I’m in the midst of my ‘prep chef’ duties for our traditional weekend meal of taco salad. I just finished chopping the lettuce and now I need to chop the tomatoes for… Read more »

Good morning, not feeling too good this morning too much time alone is so not a good thing ! Nathan just sent a message that has left me in tears, he has told me that its Herbie’s time it will be on Tuesday and I can’t bear it ! The vet said if it was his dog he wouldn’t do it yet but something must have happened to make it happen now so I am going to go do something to keep my mind busy so I don’t sit here crying ! I hope you all have a great weekend… Read more »

Good morning. I gave myself a pedicure and applied my fingernails yesterday. We have been keeping Roger in 24/7 and he is being pretty good about it……we are going to try our hardest to keep him in at night from now on since I think that is when he gets into cats fights and then gets an abbess. We are going to a concert tonight to see Roger Clyne and the peacemakers. They are quite famous and out of the Phoenix area. We saw them last Jan. for the first time. Only thing is it is standing only which will… Read more »

According to court documents, Ryker was being held inside a small, padlocked room in an RV without running water, no bathroom, and no air conditioning.

Nikkis meds must be working now because she isnt coughing all night anymore…..she still has a few coughing spells, especially after she drinks water.

Jenn
September 26, 2026 6:44 am

I was saying it was good keeping Roger inside for now and hopefully no more overnights for him.
You must be so happy that Nikki is not coughing near as much.
I hope you have fun at the concert, too bad you could not take a small folding chair to sit but I realize you can’t in a standing crowd.

Good morning, Yesterday was a nice day after all. It warmed up to low 70’s. I sat outside awhile and started to crochet my last 2 pumpkins but had people coming by saying hello. One gentleman here is British and has the coolest accent. We knew him from when we were here 3 years ago. He is so funny and gets very upset when someone thinks he is Scottish ( like Denny did )….LOL He informed me yesterday that he will be referring to me by my given name, Jennie, because he likes longer women’s names but his name is… Read more »

Hi Jenn
Did you get your pumpkins finished?
I hate what youtube has done to the live cams…..I hate those white lines too and I have the same problem. It does take the fun out of it.

It has really made it harder to watch, so incredibly annoying.
No I only got half of one done then came in because I had a big mess in my sewing bedroom. I worked the afternoon on that and got things put away where I can get them quickly when sewing.

Good Saturday morning. Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam. Early morning mist rolling across the Green this morning but the sun will soon burn that away to leave a warm sunny day. Wind from the South now, very light wind but the direction points to some stormy weather on the horizon. It is what we need badly as long as it does not get out of hand.lol. Weather APP is showing some more wet weather for next week in the South so we could be lucky. Town was empty early this morning when we went for the paper, a pleasure… Read more »

Another lovely cool day, only 72; a LOT warmer tomo. Chuck made baked potatoes; i really like the way he fixes them, lines the pan with parchment; cuts the potato length-wise, covers the top with shredded cheddar; then flips them over so the cheesy side is on the bottom; creating crispy cheese. 😋 Afterward, he went into the kitchen to clean up and asked why i didn’t have any of the chicken wings, i didn’t even see ’em. I had slathered the potato with butter, who needs chicken??
East Coasters, stay safe and dry 🙏

Hi Pam
That method sounds delicious 😋 Does Chuck them in half raw? Let me know his specific steps of his baked potato method, including oven temp and how long he bakes them.
