Same here!
We have wooden sidewalk that leads to the front door.
It tried to kill me in October of ‘22.
Th\at’s how my hip got broken.
When the boards are wet, they are very, very slippery,
That sidewalk has been there for 20 years,
One day I caught the toe of my sneaker in it and
****SPLAT***
So sad. Please see Rusty’s post #3340.

This is indeed very sorrowful news. Rusty, you are loved.
reminds me of an old joke...
A man walks into a bar with a tiny piano and a 12 inch pianist.
He sets the tiny piano down at the bar, and the tiny pianist starts playing up a storm. The bartender looks at the man and says, “That’s amazing, where did you get that?” The man replies, “There’s a genie outside your bar that will grant you one wish.”
The bartender runs outside and sure enough there is a genie. Without hesitation the bartender says “Genie, I wish for a million bucks!” The genie snaps his fingers and disappears. Instantly, a million ducks fly overhead.
The bartender walks back inside and says, “Hey man, I think there’s something wrong with that genie. I asked for a million bucks, but he gave me a million ducks.”
The man says, “You’re telling me. You think I asked for a 12 inch pianist?”
Thank you so much for the PING Judy.
It hurts to see a dear friend go through something so very
painful, and to be so far away....
LOVE YOU, Rusty.
Prayers lifted for you and your family...
Please Lord Jesus-
wrap your arms around Rusty and her family at this sad time.
Amen.
Lolo oh stylin. You’re naughty. And this close to Christmas!
Thank you sis. I hate being so far from my son now, I feel so helpless.
No words, Rusty.
Only praying for your DIL, your son, their children and you.
Boldly asking for a Christmas miracle.
hey...I wasn’t the one watchin architectural porn...oh wait...
Thanks for the PING,
From “Adventures with Teega”
His majesty is napping on yon skirted chair that he is
forbidden to nap upon!
He apparently has been using my computer while I slept
in sweet repose.
How to drive my hooman Mama an Papa insane
with my exceedingly bad behavior!
He has deduced that the easiest and quickest way to do so
is to take upon the behavior of an American Liberal.
Hence his indifferent boredom while Mama stands over him
crying and telling him that he has broken her favorite cookie
jar that came from France and she paid an exorbitant amount of money for!
(feigning indifference while licking ones toes seems to work well.)
Pestering her for more food, when he has already been fed 12 times since he arose gives hum perverse glee!
“Slow walking in front of Mama when she wakes up at 4 a.m. and having to pee and just wants to go pee
and return to bed is especially fun!
(Unbeknown to him, she was “Loaded for bear” i.e. A VERY large spray bottle of cold water)
Must knock this thing over and hide it from her!
(As soon as he is done drying his coat over the floor vents)!
To be continued...
LOL!
That’s cute!
I know, sweetheart..
No matter how hard we try, at some point our children are going to experience pain.
It’s gonna hurt like Hell, but we can’t prevent it, Huh?
Don’t feel helpless Sis!
He knows you are hurting for him..
He knows where you are, and how much you love him.
He knows, honey,
He knows..
I love you, my sweet sister!
Well, I did forget to put certain stipulations in my small community didn’t I.
A wooden sidewalk sounds so cute and quaint. But I guess it has its problems!
I started thinking about Christmas dinner today. Apparently I have invited a few people over. I have a couple friends that were hinting they had nothing to do for christmas. So there might be six of us. Maybe a couple more for dessert. All I did tonight was roast and grind up some hazelnuts. I’ll make some cookies tomorrow. I think it’ll be a real low-key dinner, just ham, a gratin potatoes, and whatever else I can think of. And hazelnut cookies with some kind of pie because I think that’s traditional. Too bad I can’t order one from Judy
Thank you. I still need to visit you, or meet up somewhere. We’d have a blast.
