Good Good Morning Good Morning (more sing and danceing) -been up awhile looking up drugs. ever get the feeling you just want to stop them all. funny thing is I am healthy as a horse ...got 3 pills to prevent chronic hives (which quit working) 1 cholesterol ( since living here I've eaten more eggs and bacon then in my whole prior life and cholesterol is lowest its ever been - go figure) evista for bone density (just started 2 months ago and now the HOT flashes are back ) any one else take it? - went to doc yesterday and all my tests are great - for a woman my age - slap him! I JUST ITCH!! got 3 shots for that - better work as it makes me very irritable.
Got the motorhome power washed yesterday (golly it was really white) also had it treated for mold, especially under the bra. today we are taking it to the RV place to get in "unwinterized" I Know we should be able to do that ourselves but have never had to before - will watch and pay attention (or just go south next winter) also a few other things to check out. And when we went to put the big slide in yesterday it didn't want to go - had to push, pull and shove. The RV place worked on it last time it was in there so will have them check it out. Preparing to go on a trip for a few days end of next week. Not far just to the IN/KY border little town of Corydon - a friend will be singing there over the weekend. The only civil war battle in IN was fought there and it was also the first capitol of Indiana. Saw diesel at the pilot for 4.22 so will fill up on way back as its on the way.
The empanadas - i no longer make the dough - i order it on line from Gaucho Gourmet - much easier. And everytime I make them I make them different have no recipe so will have to think about it and try to come up with something.
Need more coffee - bye till later. boy glad I read this through this computer can't spell at all this a.m.

Oh I'm here. I got up at 5:30 this morn at my regular time. It's just that I go read some of my other stuff first. I find it's better to do that first cause when I get in here and start reading to catch up on ya'll I find that I get kinda lost. I especially lose track of time. Then I have to rush like crazy to get my tired old butt around for work. Now I'm telling ya that there is something majorly wrong with the picture of Kelly dressed, going out the door bags in hand to the Blazer before me.

Work is still work as usual. Driving me around the bend. Last two weeks the only overtime we were allowed to get get was on the weekends. All over time during the week was cut off. Now? HA! The sup's brought around August calendar sheets to have us list the overtime we would do for the rest of the month. I filled in some days that I would do overtime. Got called to the sup's desk and asked why I hadn't filled in all of the days??? Including weekends!!! That she needed something for everyday. Told her that the days I marked were days that I would commit to but that I would probably end up doing more. Then she asked why I had wrote "OFF" on payday Fridays and on Sundays? Huh? Duh? Told her that I was not gonna commit to overtime every day of the month. Told her that there was NO way that I was gonna give up every other Friday and Sunday that I have off. That I surely didn't love that place enough to do that!!! ~sigh~

Ok, I'm dressed of course, Kelly is getting that way. Gads she's been a mean grumpy poop the past 3 days. Mom is about ready to give her either a butt chewing or an attitude adjustment. They never get to old for that! Any way I need to get my coffee for work poured. I think I will take what's left in the pot and fill up my thermos and take it all with me!!! LOL

Hope everyone has a great day and stays safe...

Love to all

Good Morning everyone!

Oh boy, did I sleep well last night. I feel like a new woman today. Must be all that activity yesterday. yes, Zeee, I'll post a couple pics of the grands and their 4-H cattle,... they ended up pretty much taking almost all the categories. They have worked hard and really spent a lot of effort getting the animals groomed to show.

OK,... off to get my o.j. and then some b'fast and then,... COFFEE!!!

Morning, all.....

Yes, that little surprise puppy has everyone going......Last report was that he was doing fine.....No report yet on his momma, so we're assuming she is doing well also.....and no, I don't see my sister and hubby giving this little guy away.....they've waited too long for him.....He sure is cute.....

Got camping company here for the weekend.....the folks Ernie worked with before he retired from the PLCB.......we always eat too much with this crew, too....and Beth will know some of them cause she met Marilyn, Margie, and Pam in GA this last spring....

Cedar, my niece also is showing beef at the county fair up state PA this week.....Haven't had a report yet on how she's doing.....

Well, got some wash to do today....so will have more coffee and get busy...

Have a great day!!

Good morning, friends. I have coffee in hand and wanted to see how you've all been doing. Sheesh, I think I'll never be able to read all these posts! Thank goodness for this recap .

Today we are leaving this campground in mid-Michigan and heading about 1 1/2 hours north to boondock at my Mom and Dad's. I said goodbye to the grandkids yesterday as Tommy gave them each a turn riding on the back of his Harley. They thought that was great! We spent a nice evening out to dinner with sis and BIL, nephew and his girlfriend. A new restaurant here in town, Harvey's, had excellent food, and we were even compensated with free dessert when our order took a little while. (The place was packed, and we were having such a nice visit that no one noticed the long wait, but the manager insisted free dessert...) Oh well.

I had thawed chicken a couple of days ago, and decided to bake it off this morning before we leave. It's outside in the toaster oven. We don't know how long we will be without electric once we leave here. I'll just pop it in the fridge and we'll snack off of it later. It's kind of funny because bacon and sausage smells are wafting from lots of campsites here, but ours smells like chicken. Sure, everyone eats baked chicken for breakfast, right?

Well, better get in gear for the move. Tommy's almost done with the outside and I need to get things stowed for travel inside. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Okay, who's conspiring to keep me from going to sleep early? Last night we had a humongeous thunder and lightening storm. Its interesting how different the storms are from one area to another. Last night we had big flashes of lightening that for just a moment, lit everything up like it was daytime. They were continuous big flashes, one right after the other. Wind tossing the trees and making the rain batter the side of the RV. There were a few times I thought the RV was going to get blown over. And the thunder was rumbling and grumbling - not the big cracks I'm used to in Texas. And, of course, Sassy under the covers, panting. This morning? Bright, crisp and sunny. Except for the fallen tree branches you wouldn't know we had a storm. Heading for Scott City State Park. Nice park, I may stay a couple of days if its quiet and not crowded.

Hope all of you have a great day.

Carol,
I've been on Foxamax Plus D for several years - as I had osteopena several years ago (osteoporosis runs in my family) and it never caused any problems with hot flashes again. Now that you say that's been a side effect, I don't think I'll ask to change to Evista Good luck.

Having a great time - will report more after I get back on that part.
