It's beautiful Sistah, but does one ever really get used to that much cold...brrrrrrr. Makes me bones ache just thinking about it. Living room is painted HOORAY! Best birthday present yet. I'm tired but happy.
Thank you for the good wishes girl in Austin. I love Austin. Hubby used to play music there at the Armadilla. an a club I can't recall the name of. Was it the Back Door? We played so many clubs back then I can't keep them straight in my mind. I do recall a little place out on Lake Travis.
Hope you are having a great birthday, Nan. Bet your living room looks great!
Aye, but ye did, lad.
'Tis a fine day o'the Lord.. and a great happy return to Nan!
And keep yer coffee if ye will.. I'm tryin' for a weekend.
And 'tis also a fine day when gunner strolls into the Finest Family Room and brightens it..:))
Challenged any al-Claydas of late, me lad??
You're tryin to get tha coffee to keep ye up all weekend?
Be careful wit' that.
'Tis an ominous beasty.
And I may have spoken a bit about it in some circles, aye.
Hi Temple Owl. Will you and Mrs. Temple Owl be going to the Freeper Ball?
You should be getting snail mail today or tomorrow ---
Nay, I havna.
I reckon they're all dead, mores the shame on 'em.
Cowards, the lot.
We should force 'em to drink my coffee upon capture.
That'll fix 'em.
Aye -- that they are, but I suspect there are a few al-Clayda left to spring up any day now...tenacious lot...
The walls and ceiling look great, and we got most of the furniture and the curtains back up. Still have to get all the accessories put back. Pictures etc. It's CLEAN.
Hey hey gunner! Long time since I heard from ye.
I'll be looking for the mail Sistah Maggie. Probably tomorrow it will be here, or Monday at the latest. Anxious. Tomorrow Jack and I have to go to the District Christmas dinner in Huntington. I hate those things but we are expected to attend. We promised our District Superintendent that we would be there.
*chuckle*
If deer rampage after drinking my coffee, what do the AlClayduh do upon coffee spillage?
Oh my. Highland talk goes directly to me Scottish heart. It's like the pipes it is, always makes the blood stir a bit.
