Saturday...Morning all ... waiting on Hanna...yes, dear Hanna is suppose to hit us this afternoon between 2 and 4 pm EST... They are projecting any where between 4 and 8 inches of rain and winds of up to 60mph...sooooooo we are making sure the plants on the porch on down and all veggies are protected...got lots and lots of little maters...cute ones haven't turned red yet..so will drag them to safety... As some of you might remember last time we had big rains we had floods in our area.. we aren't too bad as we are on a hill sort of...so crossing my fingers and praying all will be ok... as I know it's been hitting the Carolinas.. I believe Carold is still down in that area...anyone hear from her lately.. if so.. or if you are around Carold .. Pray that everything is alright....

RV Granny (Lori and Ernie)... sure hope your laundry day was a good one... ifn' you are like me I do a load and on the puter...put it in the dryer and get the other load started..back on the puter...stop for a drink and then on again to my busy schedule ...on the puter LOL.. that's my big puter day... and boy we all know how exhausting that can be.. I mean all the eye strain and the muscles being used... Stong Finger tips...LOL...

Sent out an email to those that send me mail.. and enclosed a link too for a program that is free.. as there is a lot of Mailware bytes happening.. and lately you'll notice as you wander through the internet you are getting strange mail.. well cause your computer got hit... yep..it's a form a Flash.... that happens.. it's been happening a lot in photobucket..and it attachés to your system... The program I sent in the email is free and rids your computer of that crapola... I'm placing the link here also for those I don't get email from.... http://www.malwarebytes.org/ when running this program which I do often as I do lots and lots of work on the internet..I use the quick scan.. but you can do the full session one..I also clear out all my cookies and history.. it's a thingy I've been doing often ....... also when sending email to others all at one time ie group sending... please use the BCC as this protects everyones email... Any question please feel free to contact me either by PM or email....

Ok, that's my 2 cents worth... Coffee is on and table is set... and I hope you all can join me... now if you don't hear from me tomorrow morning .. not worry..cause it maybe cause of power..... but I will send you good wishes anyway..

Good Morning everybody!!! And except for having to go to into the sweatshop this morning? It's a fine morning out on my back stoop. Temp is perfect and the air smells good. :D

Well in amongst my other running around I put out a couple of applications. So I will be keeping my fingers crossed. Tried to get into see the Docs at the health dept but struck out there. If I understood the woman right? I have to call in early the morning I want to go in??? Doesn't sound right to me. But I will try it again. I really need to get in to be checked out and to get started on getting my BP down and under control. Once I do I can then get a DOT physical and a medical card and look for a local driving job too. But right now my BP is really high and my nerves are shot. Geeze anymore I cry and get the shakes at the drop of a hat. Not fun.

Hope everyone on the east coast is prepared for Hanna!!!!! Well at least as prepared as they can be. I remember Agnes back in '72' what a mess she made of everything. Sometimes those east coast hurricanes can be really wicked.

Well it's that time. I slept in a little this morning and need to get my big butt in gear. Kelly just got done with her shower and went back in her room to get ready so that means that I need to get dressed. ~sigh~ Got to remember to get lottery tickets today! LOL

Hope everyone has a fantastic day. Stay high and dry you east coasters....

Love to all

Good Morning! Here I sit on a gloomy Saturday morning and I am loving it. We have no plans for the weekend! This is the first time in months!!!! I do have to get groceries today, and then at some point I have to do laundry, but thats the usual. My Hannah is really getting to watching hurricane Hanna. She finds it neat that they share the same name. I hope all of you in its path stay safe! Well, I have to get some breakfast cooked...Have a wonderful day all!!!

Good morning all. We just took a 7am walk with the dogs around our Alabama campground and already humidity was thick enough to cut! I'm sitting in AC now, enjoying coffee and all your posts. Tommy is cooking breakfast outside...he likes to do it every now and again...and I'm loving the smell of bacon coming from out there!

Hang on to your nylons, Barbzee, less Hannah rips them off of you! I hope you are out of danger and your power is o.k. I'll be thinking of you lots today and Tommy's family on the coast as well.

The virus we had on this laptop wasn't malware, but an adware false antivirus sales pitch with warning screens and pop-ups. McAffee and Spyware doctor both picked it up, but couldn't remove it. My BIL is pretty computer savvy and over the phone he suggested lots of "fixes" that didn't do a thing to it! He finally recommended we dump everything and reload windows. Tommy had considered that, but we don't have our initial startup disk along so we decided to do it when we get home to LA. Meanwhile, I was reading a forum on McAfee about similar problems and how folks had fixed them and came across something that made sense. We went into files and folders and discovered a program that began on the fateful day we noticed the virus. It had lots of letters and numbers that didn't spell anything and looked very suspicious. I immediately deleted it, restarted the computer and haven't seen hide nor hair of the pop-up since! Man, sometimes I'm too lucky for my shirt! I hope I didn't just shoot myself in the foot by saying it was gone. What an annoying little monster it was!

Not much of a plan here today but his DS and neices are joining us to cook-out and campfire later today. The girls are 4th and 5th grade and energy abounds. I'll need to rest up most of the day to prepare. I hope all you worker bees are having a good day, and it passes quickly for you. And you road warriors, travel safe and enjoy the scenery. I'm off to see whatcha all been up to.

BTW, Barb. I love the title of today's post. In my neck of the north we "waited for" events and such. "Waiting on" someone was taking them their meal. What gives, girlfriend? Has that southern hubby of yours gone and converted you after all??? :lol:

Morning all. A beautiful Saturday here in Kerrville. My hosting neighbor moved her rig to another site so I'm down here all by myself and loving it. I have this entire end of the park almost all to myself. She was a great neighbor but I do love the feeling of having the whole park to myself.

My daughter works for a computer store that sells refurbished and new computers and does repairs. She downloaded AVG virus and spyware programs and they are free. I'm on the internet A LOT and have never had a virus problem. She also has me using Mozilla/Firefox rather than Internet Explorer. I have Windows firewall activated but NOT their automatic updates. AVG protects your email as well. I get a lot of spam but Yahoo email puts it in the spam folder and I never have to read it.

Well ladies, am gonna go take the dogs for a long walk down by the river. Have a great day.

Morning....It's cloudy and cool and definitely feels like Fall. Well we finally bought another rig! I had looked at it about two weeks ago. Wednesday the couple called and told us they would go down another 1500. So DH and I went to look at it together on Thursday afterwork and left telling them we would get back to them within 24 hours. So I called them last night and told them we would take it. Then I didn't sleep well last night! But I always do that when I have made a decision to lay down a chunk of change! :lol: So this morning I have to get to the bank and transfer some funds so I can write a check. Then I have to start cleaning the house...I know there is another dog scattered around on the floor! It's probably going to be a spit and lick job because there is plenty of time for deep cleaning when the snow is flying.
