Lamh Foistenach Abu!
I had a pretty good day EXCEPT for the allergies. It was a necessity to shop today (out of too many things) and had to actually carry a whole box of kleenex around with me..lol.
Not only did we have milk delivered, milkmans name was Gino, but he came so early, like 3am, that we would leave the door unlocked and he would come in and put it in the fridge...lol. Would we do that today? I DON’T THINK SO!
Unless it's a package too big for the box, it isn't delivered to our door. We have those stupid cluster mailboxes that actually belong to the post office and nothing fits in them!

Good evening, Seven....interesting story about the relatives wanting to cash in on his name.
Awwwwww....the new puppy is Winston! A fine name...I hope he
doesn’t get as pudgy as his namesake! LOL!
Hi Everyone!
Got a bunch of new students this week.
Precious Kids!Some of them are really talented.
I get them making REAL music right away with a mistake-proof duet in Gb where they improvise on the black keys while I play a sequence on the left side which is a very cool pattern. Everything they play sounds excellent, as long as they keep to my groove and play ONLY Black keys. It sounds like very sophisticated New Age Jazz, and it’s on the First lesson!
On Guitar, it’s a little different. I tech the “Blues Scale” early on, then plug in the Bass and let them Improvise over me playing a Blues Bass line.
Either way it’s like being in a BAND!
We have mail delivered to the front door, too. I think we are
“grandfathered” in. The newer homes either have the clusters
or you have to walk to the sidewalk to get mail.
U OK? I M! :D
Right, and we always knew where the car keys were...in the ignition. Nowadays, I lock my car, in the locked garage...lol.
I’ll bet kids love to have you for a music teacher!

I’m older than dirt! We never had home milk delivery, but our neighborhood did. And we saved S&H greenstamps. I remember getting out a damp sponge and pasting in the full pages. Then working at filling up the page with the single stamps, or just a couple rows.
It’s very cool....and I am sure he will live up to it!
Thank you for tonight’s thread Star and Ma.
Good evening everyone.
The Cats rocked the Balloon Festival this afternoon!
the rain held off until just after they were done!
Our cluster boxes are about 2 blocks away. Nice little walk tho, except in the pouring rain. They finally put up some solar lights around them as we don't have street lights and in the winter people were complaining it was a little difficult after 5 to get their mail (I carry a flashlight in the console...guess they didn't think of that..lol.)
I try to make it fun!
I use a LOT of stickers and Prizes and positive reinforcement.
We also play a lot of Beatles, Disney and Blues.
And i very seldom beat them. LOL.
Enjoy the Perks of Coffee!
FROM BEANS TO GROUNDS AND FROM FILTERS TO CANS, THE MANY ASPECTS OF COFFEE ARE NO LONGER RESERVED FOR MORNINGS ALONE.
>>FRESHEN YOUR BREATH.
Completely out of breath mints? Simply suck on a coffee bean for a while and you mouth will feel clean and fresh again.
>>FILL A BEANBAG.
They don't call them beanbags for nothing. Coffee Beans are ideal as a beanbag filler. To ensure you're getting the most bang for your buck, purchase the least expensive bans — they will work just as well,
>>DON'T RAIE ANY DUST.
Before you clean the ashes out of your fireplace, sprinkle them with wet coffee grounds. They'll be easier to remove, and the ash and dust won't pollute the room's atmosphere.
>>MAKE A DEHUMIIFIER.
If your basement is to damp, try this effortless solution. Fill an empty coffee can with salt and leave it in the corner where it will be undisturbed, creating an instant dehumidifier. Replace the salt at monthly intervals or as needed.
>>KEEP TOILET PAPER DRY WHENCAMPING.
Bring a few empty coffee cans with you on your next camping trip. Use them to keep toilet paper dry in rainy weather or when you're carrying supplies in a canoe or boat.
>>STORE BELTS.
If you have more belts than places to hang them, just roll them up and store them in a cleaned-out coffee can with a clear lid. Coffee cans are just the right size to keep belts from creasing, and the clear lids help you find each belt easily.
>>FILTER CORK CRUMBS FROM WINE.
Don't let cork fragments ruin your enjoyment of a good glass of wine. If your attempt at opening a bottle of wine results in floating cork crumbs, simply decant the wine through a coffee filter.

Well, Winston is a very prestigeous name. Bruno may sound more ferocious but....lol.
