“There are no breakfast buffets near us. I really miss them.”
What about a hotel? I think Best Western has breakfast buffets.
“At least with the real trees I can just kill them and buy new.”
LOL! I’ve never thought of that. Somehow I don’t think my real trees get near as much dust as the fake ones. If you find an easy way to clean them let me know. I’ve tried using a spray bottle, dunking them in the sink, but dust still seems to adhere.
MTG is terrific. Just think how great our country could be if more people in Congress were a patriot like her.
RIP and thanks to our brave warrior patriots who gave all so we could live in freedom.

LOL Judy, you tell it like it is.
Like!
I actually have my own shock machine, was prescribed to me, and it does work good.

Now that it has been confirmed that COVID emerged out of the Wuhan lab in China, the Chinese military is not responding to our Secretary of Defense’s calls. Be prepared.
Georgetown student petitions to rename Reagan National Airport after LGBT ‘Dance Moms’ star JoJo Siwa
More than 20,000 people have signed a Georgetown student’s petition to change the name of Reagan National Airport.
A University of Massachusetts history professor — who said in April that “the problem with academia today is that it has too many conservatives” — supports the move as a “genuinely phenomenal idea.”
“I really did not put too much thought into who it was, but my reasoning for picking JoJo Siwa was related to the fact that Reagan in his presidency did a lot of really terrible things with regard to the LGBTQ communities, specifically with the HIV and AIDS pandemic,” Long explained in his interview with Georgetown student newspaper The Hoya. “I decided to pick JoJo Siwa because she’s been this recent rise as a new LGBT figure.”

fter suggesting in March that President Ronald Reagan had taken action to help the gay community during the AIDS crisis, a campaigning Hillary Clinton found herself pilloried by gay activists and others certain that he had done nothing of the sort. They were mistaken. In dealing with AIDS, Reagan did what he so often did well—he appointed people who shared his political convictions but could be relied on to make sound decisions based on apolitical facts and solid science. These appointees framed and announced such decisions in ways that would not result in politically polarizing efforts—in this case, efforts to fight a disease that disproportionately afflicted the gay community.
More important, both of the two Food and Drug Administration (FDA) commissioners Reagan appointed during his presidential tenure were doctors who made the right calls in leading the assault on AIDS. As the policies they implemented would demonstrate, both understood that doctors could play an invaluable role in getting the right drugs into patients to beat this dreadful new disease. This marked the beginning of an important learning process that has recently resurfaced. The future of molecular medicine now depends largely on our willingness to give today’s doctors as much flexibility and responsibility as was given to doctors engaged in the early battle against AIDS.
As the gravity of the AIDS threat became clear, the Reagan FDA began writing new rules that spelled out when significant parts of the old rules wouldn’t be fully or rigorously enforced. By doing so, the agency accelerated patient access to desperately needed drugs. Pharmaceutical companies quickly began coming on board once new policies were in place that would speed up the approval of their drugs. In short order, the firms delivered a slew of powerful new drugs, using the new tools for designing precisely targeted ...

Well, I started wiping one leaf at a time with mild soapy water and I guess because the tree has been close to a gas fireplace for ten years (and I never watered it) it is brittle and some of the leaves broke off. So I emailed the stager and told her I was just going to wash them down on the back deck with the hose on sprayer (the wouldn’t survive pressure washer lol) and if they make it, they make it. So I gave them each a good spraying and more leaves dropped from the one that was by the fireplace. The other one held onto its leaves.....must not be a deciduous tree lol.
So the house is completely upside down. Most furniture going into the garage. Downstairs is completely white.....like living in a fridge. Upstairs will be white next week. New carpeting going into two rooms, the rest is hardwood. Mike is pouring concrete on the driveway next week, Natalie is continuing to clean up the yard. Dirt is next, then sod, then nice black mulch around the trees, etc.
I’m not going to want to leave here now that some work has been done and it is looking so nice! Kidding....looking forward to living on the farm, except for that stupid rooster.
I’m glad you’re getting help. I had bought a beautiful rooster for my dad’s hens once. He was alright until my dad killed a few of his hens. Then it took two to gather eggs, one to keep the rooster busy while the other got the eggs.
Friend of mine used to load ‘em in the back of his pickup truck, take them to the car wash, and spray ‘em off.
“Friend of mine used to load ‘em in the back of his pickup truck, take them to the car wash, and spray ‘em off.”
Brilliant idea! Although it had it would have to be warm enough in Canada that they dry before they freeze?
Wow, a deciduous plastic tree, who knew? LOL!
Looks likke the car wash idea is out then for those trees.
Every time we’ve spiffed up a ho use to sell, i was sorry we didn’t do it years before - for us!
Hmmmm...didn’t think of that. They were blowed-dried by the time he got home!
I just found something I had bought for a friend that I had tucked away in my mess of a house.
Receipt was still in there...February 2020!!
While packing, I was reminded that I never took the original tags off of the bedroom suite dressers and night tables. Gibbard Furniture was a quality Canadian company. Their furniture is in Canadian embassies around the world. I have had the bed, dressers and night tables for over 40 years...but I no longer will need them.
They went out of business a few years back because of the cheap Chinese crap that people opted for.
Hey! We do actually have summer up here. It’s warm from May through October. We Canadians always got a kick out of Americans who would come up to Ottawa in the summer with their skis....actually thinking there was snow.
Looked up Gibbard - beautiful furniture
