    Hi Barbara,
    You are so funny. You really put that girl in her place. I hate when people act like that. Just because she is thin does not make her a model. People do not teach their kids like we were taught. If our mom’s heard us say something like that we would have been in trouble. Even if we were adults. Kids need to be taught respect again. At home and when they are out. I just love your answer. Adele is right you are an inspiration to us all.
    It is nice when they register at a store and let people know what they want or need for the baby. It sure makes it easier to go shopping. My daughter with this last one register at some place I have never heard of. I guess Kevin’s mom had so they all knew how to find the place on the internet. I just told her that if she wanted me to shop for her she better find a place that I can find or even heard of. So I gave her things that I know that she would need. Bibs are always one thing that they need no matter what. That and blankets. One to put in the crib and receiving blankets. I guess that is what they call them still.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Dianne,
    I also like your pictures.They do make you feel like you are on an island basking in the sun. Like the picture of Tom also. That must have been when he was younger. He is still good looking.
    I love the picture of your cat. Looks like she is going to jump right thru the camera and sit on my computer table. She is really pretty.Sorry I cannot remember her name I am really bad with names.
    That would be nice to talk to the remote and have it do what you want. it would be fun to watch whatever you want anytime. We cannot get it though so no need to think about it. They have the hopper now and it is supposed to let you tape 16 shows at the same time. That would be nice but maybe not worth the money we would have to pay for it. That is always something to think about but do we want to give up something else so we can watch tv.
    Your weather sounds really nice. We had storms last night and yesterday today we had sunshine and heat really muggy. It is cool tonight so do not know if we will have more storms tonight or not. We will have to wait and see. We have had so much rain this spring it would be nice if the sun would shine for a week and dry some of it up. That would give our garden time to grow a little also.
    I have to go back and watch the Quacker shows that I missed. I always dvr them and watch them later. I watched some of the show that Patrick was on but just could not keep my eyes open and fell asleep.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night

    Hi Dianne,
    Thank-you for the anniversary wishes. Mostly the statement about us being teenagers. I was 19 when I got married but soon turned 20 so that does not count for much, I am sure that Barbara was really young.
    I did watch dwts tonight and was a little disappointed that they did not end it tonight. We have to watch again tomorrow night to find out who won.They always seem to drag it out. I really hope that Ginger and Val win. I do like Page and Mark and Niles and Peta but Ginger is the one that I like best. They all dance so good. I would not want to be the judges and have to vote. The only thing that got to me was the dance that Peta and Niles did. I guess I am not into modern dance. It did not make sense to me. It was interesting and he did do all of the moves the right way but there is just something about that type of dancing.
    I think that you did a really good job decorating. You just have a knack for it not everyone does. I can look at a picture and it would not turn out like that. I am not good at it. You really did well. You could have been an interior decorator.
    I order some things when I shouldn’t. I just need some new things and I pay for them out of my check so he cannot say much.He does but he really shouldn’t. I just ignore him. Every time I see the recliners on the q I think of you. Did you ever get to order yours? I hope that one day that you can. You have wanted one for a long time. I do like the chair that you have with the roses. That is really pretty.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Barbara,
    Time really goes by fast. Sounds like you had a nice anniversary. How nice to go for a drive and to just stop at at a restaurant that you have never been to before. It is nice to do something different on days like that. You do not have long before it will be 50 years for you either. We were all lucky that we ended up with such good guys that stuck with us.
    We will have to start calling you Ms. Selleck. You have really met some celebrates. You held hands with Tom Selleck and got a ride from Tommy Lee Jones to your car. Jerry will have to watch you.lol That is just so cool that you met Tom and he held you hand. I wonder how old he was when you met him. It is funny that your dad was right there and watching you two.
    The blue camo is just fine. You are doing a lot of shopping for the baby. There is one thing that I wish that we had here for the baby and that is a play pen. So when they want to put her down for a nap here we would have something for her to lay down on. I know that she could lay on the floor but with all the other kids it is hard for her to be on the floor. One thing that all babies need is a bib on it with Grandma loves you. I found a whole set of bibs with different things that pertain to grandma. So of course I bought them. My daughter just laughed. Before she looked at the card she said this is from mom.
    That sounds like a good meal to me. The less that I have to cook the better. Ron never complains and I do not imagine that Jerry does either. THey are just lucky that we cook for them.lol
    Well that is all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Gail,
    Here is the number for the TSV A276853. There are two tops and one has a design on the shoulder. They have one with a butterfly and it is grey and I think that the shirt that goes with it is yellow. I am not sure though. I sent the number to Adele thinking that she was the one that asked for it then read yours and found out that I have the wrong person.My brain was on a mini vacation.lol
    How nice that you found a new restaurant. It is always nice when you find one so you can change places to go eat. It gets boring eating at the same one all the time. The concert sounded really good. I have never heard of a blues band having a cello and a violin. They usually just have guitars, harmonicas, piano and that is about it. I really do not know that much about it though.Sounds like you had a really nice evening. Sorry to hear that Greg’s back started hurting him. Hope that he is feeling better today. At least he made it thru dinner and the concert before he had to get home. It was smart to take your own car. That would have been hard if you had been in the same car. I am just glad that you both enjoyed yourselves. How nice to be able to eat outside.
    It would be nice if one of us won one of the contests. It would be fun to win either one. The Quacker one seems impossible to win. We just have to keep trying though. I already have five items picked out that I want. Now that is wishful thinking. lol
    The new Marina that you found sounds really nice. Maybe if you put a foot stool in it first and them stepped onto it and you would be able to get into the boat. Hope you figure out a way to get into it. I would be nice to go out in the boat this summer with Greg and the kids. It is nice that they do all that for you. That is a lot of the work. Do you water ski? We have never tried it. A lot of people say that it is fun. Think it too late in life for us to be doing that.
    It does not seem like that it has been that long. I cannot believe that in 4 years it will be fifty. Where did the time go. It does not seem like it has been that long. Wonder if it does for Ron. No he is always saying that time has gone by so fast. When you look back does it seem like you should be a grandma. Look at all the grand kids that we have. Where does time go.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Adele,
    i am back here is the number for the tops. A276853 they have different colors and on each top one of them has a different design on the shoulder. I just love the tops. Am glad that I got mine ordered and do not have to worry about getting the one with the flag. This one the shirts are red and blue and the blue one has the flag on it. I was hoping that it would be on the red but it is cute so it does not matter. One of the sets has a butterfly on it. So Gail will probably be getting that one. She really likes butterflies.
    80 people that is a lot to bake cookies for. You will make it though you are such a good baker and you enjoy it so much. That was an honor that they asked you to bake them. It really says a lot about you talent in the kitchen. We could all take lessons from you.Aizen will be happy if he gets some of them. He would really be upset with you if you gave them all away. Did you ever think of opening a bakery? You would have made good money at that,
    I think that I got your post confused with Gails. She wanted to know the number. Well you have it too if you want to look at it. my mind is going fast.
    How is Gary doing now? Does he still go to therapy? I hope that his shoulder is doing a lot better then it was. At least he is back at work and that gives you a little time at home alone. I really miss my alone time. Now with Ron home all the time he is really a pain. We both need to get out for awhile.
    Well that is about all from here have a good night.

    Hi Adele.
    That would be terrible to be allergic to shell fish. That is about the only type of fish that I like. I tried some talipia and it was terrible. Everyone kept telling me that it was the fish to try. So I did and did not like it at all. I think this all comes from having to eat fish all the time on Fridays. Even when they changed it my mom still made us eat fish on Friday. Once in a while she would fix lobster tails that were really good. That is how I got hooked on them.
    I had no idea that anchovies were considered a shell fish. That would be horrible to have a problem and not have anything with you to take care of it. Did you have to go to the hospital? That would be terrible. I am so glad that you came thru it alright. That is scary.
    I will look up the number when I get done on here and send it to you. I will have to back on the QVC site to find it.. So will do that as soon as I get done on here and send it to you. Thought that I had it written down but do not. I ordered it from the e-mail that I received. I will be right back will check it now.

    Hi Dianne,
    I got the e-mail also. I did order the red and blue set. I want to wear the blue one for the 4th. It looks like it will be really comfortable. I am usually careful about buying short sleeve tops because of my arms flapping in the wind. It will be hot though so will try to wear them and just let them wave. Are you going to get a set? Which one did you like?
    We did watch the Jesse Stone marathon today. I hope that they make another one. I figure that they will because that one guy came back at the end of the last one they made. The guy that they call suit. He was working on a fishing boat with his dad after he got shot. I wonder if the girl that use to work at the desk will come back also. it will be interesting to see.
    Your apartment is going to look so cute when you get done decorating it for the summer. Cannot wait to see the pictures of it when you are done. You are very good at decorating. I like just about anything done by Thomas Kinkade. We lost a good artist when we lost him. I have one of his drawings up on the living room wall. They sold them on QVC so it is not one of his expensive paintings.
    It is Adele that got the X finity. She has not said anymore about it though. I hope that they figured it all out by now. It will be nice to have if all you have to do is to speak into it or speak to it to get it to work. We have to have satellite where we live. We are in the country so we cannot get any type of cable. We have a hard time getting wi fi out here also. It will be nice when they can give us the same kind of service that people get in town. I guess it is the price that we have to pay for our privacy.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Adele,
    I ordered the Quacker tsv tonight. It is so cute and every time that I wait I do not get what I want. I got the blue and the red. The blue has a picture of the flag on it. I have missed out on a lot of the Americana stuff. For some reason it has really caught my eye this year. These tops are really cute. Did you get the e-mail showing the tops yet? Ron is going to have a fit because I am ordering so much. I do not say anything when he buys all his trucks and junk. At least this stuff will be worn and not just stuck in the back yard taking up space.
    I bet you see that look on Aizens face every time that he eats at your house. You had some sweet things at your house for Aizen. You had chocolate and you had donuts. I can see all the cookies that you will have for him the next time he comes to your house. He will be really excited or on a sugar high. Probably both. lol How nice that they asked you to bake cookies for the first communion. They will make a beautiful center piece for the table and they will be eaten quickly. You will be happy that day getting to bake. That is your comfort zone. I need to bake some pies for the 4th of July. We are going to our youngest daughters for dinner and to see the fire works. They are supposed to be really pretty. They live on post so they have the fire works show there. This will be the first time we have been there to see them. Ron is not too happy about going home so late at night but he will have to adjust.lol
    What do you put in your pop overs? I always have them with fruit in them. I take it these must be different then the ones that I am thinking of. I have never baked any just have gotten them at other peoples houses or bought them already made at the store. Did you watch the Chew the other day when Daphne made those shrimp sandwiches? I want to try them they looked so good. I just do not know about using the rice flower. I have never used it before. Hope that I can get a small bag of it. Do not know when I would use it again.
    Not much else going on here. Have a good night.
