    Hi Barbara,
    It would be nice to just go out and lay in the grass. It has been a long time since we have done that. It would be hard to get up off the ground now. If I get in the floor I have to make sure that there is something to grab onto to get up. I do have to say it is easier since they gave me the shots in my hip. So I guess that a lot of it was from my hip hurting.
    That was a sweet thing that Neal did. Calling to let you know that he was breathing in some ocean air for you. That would have made me cry also. Sounds like they had a good trip. It is lucky that Sarah was not around her mom. She does not need to get that sick while pregnant. Hope that her mom is better by the time they get home and they go to see her.
    I have never heard of the sizes of bra’s that Adele had told you either. The only ones that I have even seen is a A B C D. I do not know where to go and find those sizes. Maybe that is why our bras do not fit right. We really do learn a lot on here. I have never gone to a store where they measure you to help you find the right size bra. I would be too embarrassed.
    We will be bbqing here for Memorial day. We do even if it is just the two of us. It is hard to get use to just fixing enough potato salad for the two of us but have done it before. We like to bbq fresh veggies. Will try and get some from the store next week. I hope that we have some asparagus to cook on the grill. We had some tonight that came out of the garden and are hoping that we will have enough to fix again.
    Happy Anniversary. How many years? Ron and I just celebrated our 46th year the 2nd of this month. Time just goes by so fast. I cannot believe that it has been that long. This year is really going fast. I guess that Easter being so early this year really threw me off. It just seems like it was here and gone before we knew it.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Adele,
    That is so cute that Aizen calls them Nan cookies. Even when he is at home. He will be excited when he comes next time and the cookies are there. We have to spoil our grands. We cannot spoil our kids anymore.
    I am glad that you like your tanks and the shirt and jacket. I was going to order that but didn’t. Which color did you get in the jacket? I tried to order the American shirt that they had but by the time I tried it was sold out. I tried to get Patrick to tell me or give me a hint of what the tsv is going to be. I thought that it was going to be shorts but he said no but the shorts will match back to the tsv. So it is going to be a pair of something. So it must be a jacket and a top.At first I thought maybe it would be dream jeannes but the short would not match with that. So there will be a pair of short on the show. Wish that I could have got more out of him but that was it.
    Life is too short to worry about dusting. It is nice when we can just go outside and enjoy the fresh air. We sure have not had a lot of days when we could do that. We are going to have a lot of rain next week so we will be stuck in the house again. When is this rain going to stop. Hope that none of that is headed your way.
    That was really nice that Marissa and Penna came over for breakfast. It was really nice that they brought bagels.I bet Gary was happy to see them coming with the bagels. That is nice that they both come over.
    I went shopping with my daughters and the one talk me into buying these pants. They are those tight things cannot remember what they call them. I will never wear them out of the house. I bought three items and so the pants were free. We went to Penny’s and it was really a good sale there also. My one daughter is the bargain queen. She knows where all the good sales are and she tries to get everyone to go with her. I just have to watch her and not let her talk me into buying things that I will never wear. I may have to give it to one of the other kids.lol
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Gail,
    We had a really nice time shopping and having lunch. Aliza was such a good girl. I was pushing her around the store and she was just smiling. Even when I would run into one of the racks. She stilled smiled at me. She was probably thinking this poor woman cannot push this thing where is my mom.lol
    She was so good in the restaurant also. I have one of the clown noses that they sell at Walgreens and I put that on and she had the biggest grin on her face. The waitress even smiled. She had not smiled the whole time that we were there.
    I hope that you enjoy the concert. I got that confused. I do not know where I got blue grass from. I have not listened to very many blues singers. So do not know if I like it or not. It will be nice to go out to dinner and to the concert.
    Two of the girls do not have to worry about weight either. I do have the one daughter that is like I am. She can look at a piece of cake and gain 20 pounds. She is really comfortable in her skin though. So I guess that I did something right with her. The other two just do not gain like that. They take after Ron’s family. It is hard to lose weight and if I was not sick I would not be in the size that I am in now. If my stomach ever stops hurting I will probably gain all my weight back.
    We usually do not ride with other people. They may not want to do what we want to do so there is no point in riding together. I do not blame you for wanting to go home and check on Rocky. It is hard on him to be home by himself. I guess as we get older we do not want to have to do what other people want to do. If I want to go home I want to go now and not have to discuss it with anyone else.
    My brother does not like to fly anymore either. It is too much of a hassle. He has to for business also. I just do not like to fly no matter what. I am glad that I never had a job where I was required to fly anywhere. I would have to quit. It is stupid to be afraid of something like that but I just cannot help it.
    That is a long time to be shopping with one company. You really have been with them for a long time. You have seen a lot of changes on the channel. Are you entering the contest that they are having right now. They are giving away a gift and money I guess. I have been entering you can enter every day.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Dianne,
    I like the support that the Genie bras give. That is about all that I wear. They are just really comfortable to me. They do not support you as well as they get older but that is any bra. You can just throw them in the dryer also. That is another thing that I like about them.
    Your cat is so pretty. She looks so much different now that she has her hair cut. She looks really cute. It kind reminds me of that little dog that they gave that hair cut to. She has more hair on her head then her body. That is really cute.
    I did not see it where the bird landed on the podium while Bernie Sanders was giving a speech. I bet that it was funny. How did they get if off the stage and out of the building? That would have been interesting.
    I had heard that another plane had crashed but did not hear that it was terrorists. I must have missed that part. I never fly. Never have it scares me to death to get that high off the ground. I have been that way since I was little. So if it is a place that we cannot drive to then I am not going. I do not go on cruises either. I am just a coward. If you drive you can see so much more scenery.
    I will be glad to get my lock and lock. I had never ordered any before. The things that I have I got from Costco and I have tupperware. I am slowly getting rid of the tupperware. It is old and needs to be thrown away. I hope that I like it as much as everyone else seems to.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Adele,
    Poor Aizen did not get any cookies at your house. I know that made you feel really bad. It does not hurt for them to have to eat fruit once in awhile. They think that it does but it doesn’t. My grands would die of shock if they came here and I had a fresh batch of cookies baked. lol I am glad that you got to spend some time with both the boys.
    No man would put up with that. They would run out the door and never come back. Some men do not like to have their prostate checked. Ron won’t let them check his. So the pap smear would never happen. They would never have a baby either. They could not stand what we had to go thru. There would be a lot less kids in the world.
    Your counters are going to be really pretty. Everyone should have a little sparkle in their kitchen. You will be so happy with it when it is done. You will have to post a picture of it. I do not have any of the lock and lock. I just heard you talk about it and Gail maybe Dianne also. So thought that I would give it a try. There are a lot of things that I have not tried on QVC. Ron will be so excited when he sees the UPS truck come and drop off the lock and lock.
    All I did today was laundry. I have a lot to do. Will finish it up tomorrow. Ron has a lot of things that he wears to work on his lawn mowers and they are too dirty to wash with the other clothes. So will get them done tomorrow. Will have to do it tomorrow when I get home. I have to go to the back doctor and after that my two daughters are meeting me for lunch. I will stay in town and do some shopping before they get there. Mandy said that she may come there early and shop with me. It will be nice.
    It is not fun when you dribble something hot on yourself and do not want to make a big deal out of it. I think that it happens to all of us as we get older. I do the same. It seems like our boobs have turned into shelves to hold the food we drop. We will have to tuck a napkin in our shirts to keep it from happening. We will look like the old red necks with our napkin in our tops. lol
    Well that is about all from here. I agree that our grands should know about their bodies. They need to feel comfortable. I have one grand daughter that is really shy and am not sure what she would do if someone tried to kidnap her. She may turn out to be the one that would scream the loudest.
    have a good night

    Hi Gail,
    Piper is just too cute. That is funny that she got right in line with the kids to see the kindergarten class. Hope that she took it okay when she found out that she would not be going. It may be worth it to stay home if she gets to spend more time with you alone. She will enjoy having you all to herself. She can talk and have fashion shows and no one to want you attention.lol
    My kids all liked the pop toys too. So it should be something that she will enjoy. I wonder what it is about having something pop up at them that makes them laugh. I will find one. I am going looking tomorrow. I am meeting Danyielle and Amanda for lunch tomorrow. So we can do some shopping then. I will look at Wal Mart and then at the Dollar store. They will have one somewhere.
    We never talked about body shapes either when the kids were young. The only time that anything was said is when they thought they were too fat and I would talk to them then. Just told them if they were worried about it just not to eat so much bread or potatoes. They did not need to diet. Well the thought of giving up bread would mean not eating hamburgers that ended the problem. They were none of them fat. Did Jenny go thru that in high school?
    The concert sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe he will sing some songs that are not blue grass. They do that sometimes. It will be nice to go out and eat and then go to the concert. Are your friends going out to eat with you? Sounds like a fun evening.
    Does Greg like to fly? It is scary to fly right now but it can happen in a mall or at a sporting event. If terrorists are going to attack you can be anywhere. They are not particular about where they strike.
    Well that is about all from here. Hope that you have a good night.

    Hi Dianne,
    I have bought bras from Breezies and do not like them. The wires are uncomfortable and they came out of the bra and so were not a good fit after that. So did not order them after that. I do buy the Genie bras. They are really nice and are comfortable. I like that you do not have to hook them in the back. They are more like a sports bra. You can get them at Wal-Mart also and they are two in a box. They come in two different colors but not the pastels here. I am not sure if they do in other places or not.
    I am a night person also. I am up late at night and like to sleep in. The late appointments are nice now. When I worked it was always early in the morning. I still liked to sleep in on my days off. It was so nice when I retired and did not have to worry about going to work or getting home. Still enjoy it.
    It is so cold here today. I will be glad when it warms up. What is your weather like there? Do you get really cold weather there where you are? I do not know why I always think that you do. You have really nice weather there usually if I am right.
    I ordered the lock and lock bowls tonight. I need storage bowls an the colors are so pretty. I got the lavender ones. My old tupperware needed to be replaced. So am doing it slowly. Will have to get the cabinet cleaned out a little to make room.
    Not a whole lot going on here. We are just taking it easy here. Have a good night.

    Hi Adele,
    I ordered some of the lock and lock. Everyone seems to like it so decided to get some of it. I like the lid with the handle. That will be nice to have. Now I will have to clear out a space in the cabinet for them. I always need storage bowls though. I have some tupper ware bowls and they are really old and I need to get rid of them. Did you ever get those? They were good but the lids did not stay on after awhile. They lost some thing when you washed them in the dish washer.
    Our garden is not growing very fast either. I was a little disappointed that it is so cold and things are not growing like they should. We have a longer period of hot weather here then I think that you do. Sometimes in October we will still have some hot weather. I know that we will have warm weather ins September. Usually it does not start to get cool here until around Halloween or the day we schedule the hay ride.
    Gary is so funny. Some men do not like to talk about their private parts. They would be in trouble if they were woman. We have to talk about that stuff all the time. We have to go to a doctor for a pap smear and that is not a fun or comfortable thing to go thru. Men do not know how easy they have it. I would have laughed about the guy having a penis transplant also. That is just so strange.
    We still do not have our heat on here either. We just use our winter clothes and lots of blankets. It is just too much trouble to turn the heat back on. If we had it all to do over I do not think that we would have gas heat. We would have gone with electric.
    How did your day go with JJ and Aizen? Hope that all of you had a great time.
    Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

    Hi Sue,
    Congratulations on your retirement. It is so nice not to have to worry about getting up in the morning and going out when it is really hot or really cold. Just really enjoy yourself.
