Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

Hope your week is going well.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Pro...beautiful sunny day here.

Hope you had a productive day. d:o)

Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

[PROCON]

Howdy Miss radu!

Well I had a lot happen today.

I finished my last physical therapy session on my formerly sore neck, it's fine now.

I headed out to my gun range today and shot off a bunch of 9mm and .223 to stay in shootin' shape.

AND, I finally, after reading the VERY LAST thing I needed to read in order to cut my cable TV, finally CUT IT OFF!

No more! I'm just on the high-speed internet plan with my cable company, saving money and happy about it!

How wuz your Wednesday?

[radu]

Howdy do, Conor. *Hugz*

Hope all’s still going well.

Looks like y’all are in for a bit of a wet time. Maybe it won’t be too bad by the time it hits your area.

[radu]

Well pooey! Sorry I missed you while you were here, ms. feather. Hope all’s going well with ya! *Hugz*

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

We got our checks printed on time....now I can relax a bit.

WOOHOO!!!!!

Howdy, PRO.

How was your day?

Typical Wed. here ..... visited Aunt Clara and did the grocery shopping. Ohwhatathrill. LOL

[SandRat]

[radu]

Wow! You had a BUSY day. Sounds like it was a good one too. Glad your neck is finally feeling better. It gave you a lot of grief for a while.

And finally got to the gun range! ‘Bout time! :-)

I couldn’t do without our cable. Too many shows I’m hooked on that I’d miss. Glued to American Gothic at the moment. It’s just a summer filler and I’ll miss it when it ends.

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

Did you get through your work shift without grumping at any customers? hee!

Get through your nap without the presence of Peaches?

[luvie]

Hey, radu! It wasn’t bad. We had “chores” more than customers, and the customers we did have were nice, so I managed NOT to be a grumpypuss today! :)

I did get a nice nap. Peaches was sleeping in my bathroom sink bowl...his favorite spot lately—I think it’s cool to the touch for him....so he didn’t purr in my ear. LOL!

Tomorrow is another early day and then off Friday. I’m looking forward to that!

[MoochPooch]

Evening, Kathy! Happy September!

[radu]

Glad you made it through the day. Just one more and aaaaaaaaah.

Several of our cats like sinks during summer too. It must be because they’re cool. Heck, if we could fit in them, we’d probably do it too. LOL

Early day for me tomorrow, too, but not as early as yours. WHEW!

[luvie]

Thank goodness you don’t have to be up at 6:45-ish. LOL! Since you probably go to bed about that time. I’m not good with it and it’s so tempting to roll over and say fugidaboudit. LOL!

[PROCON]

you don’t have to be up at 6:45-ish

Ha, you'all just need to get in the habit of getting up a 5:30 AM every morning like me and just smile at the new day!

Of course coffee helps too :-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mooch...and a Happy September to you, too.

Is fall starting? Nice summer? Have you had some good editing this summer?

[Kathy in Alaska]

WOW! Good evening, Sand...((HUGS))...I hope I can sleep tonight. Two nights ago...a minor earthquake. Last night a horrible leg cramp.

Is Mrs SR at a quilting meet?
