tropical Wednesday chat

Karen, good vibes going out to your little sis.  Sorry your weather is so yucky.  We were in the upper 50's this morning and not too terrible on the humidity. 

My desk looks like a bomb went off.  Hate it when I don't finish stuff the day before and it hits me in the face the next morning.

Bugsy is loving the new beds

Yikes, I don't think I'd be capable of an interview with 20/20... scary enough being on TV, let alone speaking about a personal matter, let alone for national television - especially thinking about how many people across the country have high definition televisions.  Skeery.  Good vibes for her.

Sent off entries for a show in November because they have good judges and it's a small show.  We'll see if Gracie even feels up for it...  Will find out next weekend when she shows again.

**yaaawwwnn*** I'm not awake yet.  How's everyone doing this morning?

Absolutely, calm vibes for your sister.

Another gray and dreary day here today.  Blech.  I love autumn, but this year it's rather wet and gloomy.

Oddly, despite the rain last night, Tylers candle remained lit until it completely burned itself out.

Calming vibes for your sis, Karen.

Send rain - we need it bad. We are getting a bit right now, but are definitely way behind.

Bugsy is loving the new beds

   I missed this - what kind of beds are they?

They are memory foam/orthopedic foam beds from Costco - I bought one for him last year when I saw it $22, it still looks new. So I've been on the lookout for them but I hadn't seen them since, until Saturday. Bought 2 of them - they went up to $24  They are large, have lovely removable covers,  the foam is firm,  4-5 inches thick with a gentle egg crate pattern on top.  He doesn't - by choice - go on beds or furniture so I keep a bed in our bedroom, the tv room and in the sunroom. These have replaced some old cedar/poly fill beds that had gone lumpy (also Costco $20). The memory foam ones are better and larger than the ones I've seen for $50-80.  It pleases me to see him using them because I think it must feel good on his battle scarred body.

Jackie I hate when my desk is like that too - I had to do a huge cleanup last night because it had gotten bad.

OMG if I reminded my sister about HDTV she'd pass out. She got angry with her husband for not buying a new shirt and has texted me a zillion times this morning saying she can't find any good pictures (I guess family shots) Anyway she'll appreciate the vibes

Julie and Jackie we are due for a swift turnaround in temps - I heard something about a high in the 50's on Sunday and into the 40's next week. Sounds good to me!!

There was a horse on the loose in our 'hood yesterday - I didn't see it but heard plenty about it via our listserver and friends. I wasn't sure if it had made it down to our end............my guess is it did. I took B for our 1/2 mile walk and soon after leaving our driveway his nose hit the pavement and stayed there other than to look up and scan the horizon for whatever he was tracking. Having seen him near a horse I have a strong feeling that is what he was tracking. Goofball

Calming vibes for your Sis, Karen.  I have noticed that Hot has been a little slower getting up since the temp have cooled down.  He never gets on the furniture and sleeps in several places depending on where people are.  I am thinking I should get him one of those beds.  Dont have a Costco so I will have to shop around.

It was 45 degrees here this morning may get in the mid thirties over the weekend. We really need rain, may also get some of that on Friday.  I am going to have to bring my plants in, ugh, I am not quite ready for  it.   I will have to clean that room, which is full of stuff from another room that I cleaned....ahhhhhh Calgon take me away!

Got to get with it, Have a good day all!

Karen - Vibes for your sister.

Jan - smiling vibes for Willa.

Just got back from RIley's appt. at U of M.  It's official there will be NO steriod shots/or pills.  The inflamation is gone.  Whoo Hoo Happy Dance.  Although she was an absolute HOT MESS at the docs.  She wouldn't let them take her temp or blood pressure.  She is still pretty cranky from being sick and had to be dragged out of bed before dawn this AM.

Working from home this afternoon to listen to a 4 HOUR conference call.  I am going to have to hook myself up to a battery or something to keep from falling asleep!

woopwoopwoop!!! Yea for Riley!!!  That is awesome news

 We are doing the Happy Dance in Arkansas too!

oh my gosh Lisa, that is awesome news!!! I'm so happy for you guys. Those riding lessons probably did the trick

One more day of mid 90s and then we're going to finally be in the 80s for the next few days. I can't wait!! The idea of having the doors or windows open at night is making me giddy.

Story of the newswoman criticized for her weight is really bugging me....
