Have to take a swim all.. The temp is up over ninety. BBS.

Good question about AC's business.Depends how much time he spends in the tapas bar, but whatever brings in the most moola works for me.And Grannie, word on the streetcorner is that it is MUCH more profitable to sell checks than sell chicks like you ;-)

[lodwick]

Doesn't Gran's house look grand?
I love the laterns flanking the entry - quite colonial looking.

I just discovered we don't have to worry about capitalizing in the addy bar - JR's new program is automatic on that also.

Keep having fun - gotta run to the grocer and beyond. bbl

Hi madd dawg...welcome and if you don't bite, we'll feed you real good.Grannie is always baking cakes and goodies, then devours them, by herself, in her broomcloset, but if you use flattery on her, she will succumb.Word is she's real easy ;-)

Hello Frodo Neets....if you spend too much time in your garden, you could turn into one of them fancy garden gnomes ;-)

[Neets]

See if I give a flying Frodo...if I turn into a FrodoGnome.

[grannie9]

Now, now children.. cool your jets... I just cooled mine..

[grannie9]

LOL LOL.. omg I hate you... Just like everyone else does...heh heh heh..

(that was done from my broom closet.)

[grannie9]

It's the "beyond" that usually does a job on you. ;)

Well, finally got myself here, and since there was so much action this morning on DD, I see everyone is now taking a rest...

I just stayed up really late last night, watching a 3hr mystery on the BBC channel...it did not wrap up until 3am, and by the time I quit puttering around, and got to sleep, it must have been 4am or so...so got up late to begin with...

Then had to start getting things ready for the hubby...his oj and yogurt, followed by coffee...his getting up ritual...then an hour and 1/2 later, he is ready for dinner...and I still had to make and pack his extra large lunch for the middle of the night at work...plus play with and pet Dizzy, and feed him some snacks...

So it was a busy day here, and not much time to get everything ready, being as I was such a later riser today...

Weather here is still crappy...cool, and grey skies, and some showers...I am freezing, but refuse to turn on the heat...its just obscene, to have to use heat after July4th...I suppose I shall have to go back to my long underwear to keep warm....

News today, from Western Washington is still grim...three sailors from the Everett Naval station are in deep doo-doo....a young(14yrs old) girl came home and her parents found blood in their bathroom which came from her...they rushed her to a hospital, where her blood loss was severe enough to warrant a transfusion...

Apparently this young gal, along with two other teenagers, allowed themselves to get picked up by 5 sailors, and then they all proceeded to a Motel6, where booze and partying began...things got out of hand, and this young gal was raped by 3 of the sailors...one is in custody, and they authorities are on the search for the other two...they know who they are, so it will be only a matter of time, before they are caught...

These three young men have now ruined their lives...they will no doubt be facing jail time, a court martial from the navy, and a prison record, which will follow them everywhere...the young girl, has apparently been severely injured, and no doubt, she will be traumatized for a long time...

Its all so sad and senseless to me...several young people and their families, will now have a tragedy to cope with for the rest of their lives...

Like anywhere else, our military members are fine people, who willingly serve their country, and conduct themselves with honor and dignity...but like anywhere else, there are always those who bring dishonor upon themselves, and often by inference, bring dishonor upon their profession(which is wrong, but nonetheless occurs)

I am just praying that all those involved see the error of their ways and their behavior, and from this time forward, try to lead better lives...

So much for my rant of the day...

[andysandmikesmom]

As usual, your pics are wonderful...what a grand looking house you have...it does look like a home out of colonial Williamsburg...just beautiful...

[andysandmikesmom]

How exciting for the doggies...a walkie...I can just hear Lulu voicing her approval of walk time....thats funny about Happy being so excited, that he got so excited, he accidentally punched Bill in the nose...

I loved Loddys pic of the basset hound...what a grand thing to see as I began to read DD threads...

Ah, good grief, I see sunshine...just five minutes ago, there were dark foreboding skies, now I see some blue, and the sun is shining brightly...Here in the Pacific Northwest, the weather takes extreme turns in short periods of time...now if that sun would just stay out for a while, the house would warm up a bit....

[andysandmikesmom]

Thanks for that bassety pic...makes me grin, seeing the wonderful basset hound sitting proudly on a DD thread...

Also thanks so much for the link to the music site...I love to have music to post to...I notice that link also had another link to some country music, which I love....

[andysandmikesmom]

So your MIL, also doubles as a linen inspector...I never had a MIL, as my hubbys mom ran out when he was a baby...so I always have to amuse myself, with other peoples tales of their MILs...

Some folks love their MIL, some detest their MIL, others just tolerate, or are apathetic towards their MIL...I always appreciate seeing peoples view on their MILs...

[andysandmikesmom]

Still waiting on tales of the family reunion, and the romantical weekend...we must have details, you know...

[palo verde]

hi sweetie
what a treat, a delicious long mystery on PBS
our heat has turned insane
the ground is now too hot to step on

I am sorry for the 3 young men in the navy and for the young women too
if only they each would turn to God now
a happy solution would be found for each one of them
on their own it must be time of suffering
in my heart of hearts I see this as a mistake
no one should pay bitterly for a mistake
Love, Palo

[andysandmikesmom]

I always appreciate the Fred on Everything articles...he has a solid, down to earth way of thinking, and hes not afraid to speak his mind...I have his column delivered to my email, but always appreciate your posting a link to him, here, just in case I somehow miss it in my email...

[lodwick]

Props to BigAl - he's got his head screwed on correctly.
The mailman best get my copy here, muy pronto!
A little spanish lingo there.

[andysandmikesmom]

Gee Habs...I have never had a voodoo dolly before...but shouldnt I have one, to round out my collection of pretty dollies? A whole new area of dollie collecting presents itself...
