Monday, Truth Be Told

[Harmony]

Sunny, are you going up for the graduation? I hope you are flying...

(Twins and family) how very sad. I will miss your stories about him.

Wanted to tell Elizabeth congrats on getting a new vehicle! Sorry about the alternator. About 30 years ago I bought a little hatch back chevy...brought it home and the next morning it wouldn't start...and it was the alternator too! The car dealer fixed it for free. It's a small world..

Lucylee, your garage room will be just great! DD has a pool table up in a 2nd story family room. The movers took the legs off and carried it up. DSiL said he gave them a big tip! It was up 6 stairs then a left turn and then another 14 stairs. It can be done.

Whew, busy day. Today's mail is sorted and desk is piled again. I just don't know how people keep their houses neat and tidy and clean without constantly doing something. I know I didn't do this much last year when I wasn't feeling so good very often and the house showed it. I am much calmer and happier when it looks like this, and still it's far from perfect. The decluttering has made a huge difference all by itself, and having the energy to keep it picked up more has also helped.

Lilac I'm glad you made it safely and it's nice you can still be in touch.
Nancy, we have cougars too but not so close. Do you often have them around? Keep your eyes peeled! We have bobcats around and see them once in a while. They eat all our squirrels.

(((Twins))) I am so sorry about Moses. It is so hard to make that decision but in the end you love them enough to end their suffering.

We had C racked Bar rel for lunch. Tonight we went to Joe's Bar-b-q. It used to be Oklahoma Joe's. It was delicious.

There were tornado warnings at home, but they are over.

(((Twins))) It is so hard. And yes, the house will be so quiet now. Dogs are like kids but even better, they don't ask too many questions so we kind of like them following us around!

<I left this sitting here for hours. >

I've done the ironing and cleaned up the kitchen. Will now ice knees and do physio stretches although I'm not sure how much I'll be able to do because my leg hurts so much. It is starting to swell again, too.

[Nancy]

Yes we have cougs go through here couple years, never used to hear of it.

I had a shorter day with toddlerN today. She helped with the kid rake when I was doing yard work. Got the dead branches loaded up to go to the dump later on the yard looks a lot better now. Got it watered too. Wow that is a relief.

Swept the seeds up.

[Sunny]

Harmony, we plan on driving up north, but will stay overnight halfway. We will be here for dgd17-K's graduation on May 30. Dgd17-H graduates about two weeks later, but I'm not sure when we'll go up. Dh is bound and determined he's not going to miss her graduation!

Oh, Nancy... stay safe when you are outside!!

Eeek! Nancy! Cougars... * whew * I'd be nervous walking, too.

Oh -- and * cheers for me * -- I did go out and walk one mile tonight after supper.

(((Twins & family))) (((BIG HUGS))) I know the quiet you are talking about, and our Pluto wasn't even an "inside" dog! We miss him so much, still. Neither of us had ever had a dog that long before, I don't think. But you were so wonderful to Moses, and you did the right thing to end his pain. (((BIG HUGS))) and (((HUGS))) for Macs, too. I know he's going to be lonesome.

[Ramblinrose]

Twins... I cried for Moses and he isn't even my dog.

Lilac... My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Nancy... We have bob cats that walk around here. I never walk without my Halt II. It's pepper spray that's suppose to stop bears in their tracks... I have no intentions of finding out if that is really to.

Waving to y'all. May what ever ails you disappear over night

[Lynlee]

I'm so sorry (((Twins' family))).

Happy birthday Cowinkle RamblingRose Sweety.
