Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...did you and Mrs MacNessa sally forth today? Good journies?

How is spring coming along?

Oh my goodness, Sand...that is sooooo cute!

Did you and Maddi have a fun day? ((HUGS))

[luvie]

Cute! You, too, Sandy! :)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Luv...it’s probably too hot in Yuma.

How is spring doing in your part of Texas? ((HUGS))

[luvie]

Howdy, Kathy! (((hugs)))

Right now it’s up and down and up and down. We got a bit of a sprinkle today....2 hundredths of an inch. LOL! We have a lot of catching up to do! It was a bit cooler today, and I’m kind of glad. Don’t want it to heat up too fast!

Is the snow melting in Alaska?

[Kathy in Alaska]

In first....The Mayor grabs the gold!!

[SandRat]

We had a great day! ((HUGS))

She even played a lot with her new Toy Pack-N-Play that she got this week end.

(Yes, Pack-N-Play. Just like the one she sleeps in here, only real small, just the right size for her dolls & stuffed Animals)

We both sallied forth today. Mrs. MacNessa made it to work in short order. I left the Castle at 7:15 and got caught behind an accident - an unattended school bus that had drifted across the road when the driver forgot to set the parking brake before he went to answer a call of nature. An 8 year old was struck and trapped under the bus and several children inside the bus were slightly injured. The 8 year old was extricated by a passing motorist. The road was shut down in my direction and I had to take an alternate route, which was of course heavily burdened with overflow traffic from the road where the accident occurred.

I rolled into the Office at about 9:45.

Apparently I hurt my right (good) knee yesterday playing in the garden - extremely difficult to get around today and lots of pain. I'll be hitting the hay in a few minutes.

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[Kathy in Alaska]

And rounding out the top three....Mac bags the bronze!!

Must retire for the evening -

For Every Morn' Brings Forth A Noble Chance,
And Every Chance Demands A Noble Knight!

already mounts the parapet.

Evening, Kathy!

[Kathy in Alaska]

What a cool picture...I like the tractor.

Is it a bulldozer? I can’t quite see.

[left that other site]

Two good lessons today...Got to play the Bass on Wild Horses, Wish You were Here, Hotel California, Paint It Black, Come Together, Someone Like You, Moondance, Proud Mary, Wake me Up When September Ends, all accompanying a 9 year old girl; who sings and plays these songs on her guitar . AWESOME!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Melting every day now, but still freezing hard at night.

[Kathy in Alaska]

And she has plenty of dolls and stuffed animals to put in it. Too cute!

Lynn-Dah is her old self again.

Of course, the antibiotic wrapped in turkey baloney twice a day doesn’t hurt!

And, no, there will not be plastic surgery to correct the scar. Fur should grow in a few weeks!

Mommy don’t get no face lift, so baby don’t neither.
