Hi Gail,
I did order the dj the other day. I also ordered a pair in the wine color. I hope that the vest will match the pants we will see. I think that the wine and pink will look good together. I have a lot of pink shirts. I am going to make myself wear another color. I need to get out of this funk. Or maybe I will end up sending them back. We will see.
It is really hot here also. That is interesting that you have a toilet out by the road. It would be funny if you could find a mannequin. The neighbors will be talking about that for a long time. I wonder what made that man put his mannequin up. That is a lively neighborhood. That is one thing about country life you can do almost anything that you want. That is how you started pole dancing in the barn.lol In the winter you should take an old blanket or a old jacket and put it around the white mannequin. That would surprise him.
Barbara has been having so much going on here lately. I really hope that she moves over here with the rest of us. We sure do miss her. I hope that Jerry is okay.He has been having health issues also. We are all falling apart.
I went to the back doctor today. I have been having trouble with my neck so he popped it for me and it has not felt so good for a long time. He has crazy ideas but he really know how to get rid of a sore neck. It was weird though when we went in there. None of the girls that worked there are there now. They have been there since I started going there. Two of the girls are going to nursing school and one moved away. I could not believe it when I walked in. Told the doc that I was wondering if he was going to be there or not. He said he is not going anywhere. Now that is sad when something like that is news. I need to get a life.lol
I cannot wait to get the new dj. I hope that they are as cute as they were on the internet. I do not know why they decorate the pockets most people cover them with their shirt. Oh well maybe it will inspire me to tuck my shirt in once in awhile.
Well that is about all from here. Have a good day.

I found it back. Go to the home page. Click on the bottom of the part with the picture of Tim Bice. You go to the second dot and when it takes you to that page it is right on top.
I hope that I did not confuse anyone.

Hi All,
They posted the Quacker TSV and I ordered me a pair. If you look Cynthia they have it on two easy pay if you are interested. You do not have to have a q card. I just thought that I would let you know. They are really cute.
I will have to look again to see where I found it. I am not sure. Will look it up when I am done here and if I find it I will post again. I should have written it down so I could find it right away.
I like the high lights. They are easier for me to keep up with and I do not have to do them on a regular basis. So on days that I am not feeling well I do not have to worry about going and getting it done. Everyone does have to figure out what will work best for them. My mom use to dye her own hair and sometimes it would turn a really funny color. We would try to be nice and tell her it looked good. One time it turned red and she almost had a fit. She stayed home until she could dye it again. The hair dyes were not as good as they are now though. She just let her hair go white and she looks really good with it like that. She does still wear wigs. I guess we never change.
That is like us. We do not go that much anymore. Retirement does something to you. I have to say it is a most relaxing time in life. If Ron would quit buying old junk trucks it would be even better. He bought that old red truck that was wrecked. So now he has bought another truck to take parts off of to fix the first old truck. The second does not run at all. I wonder what he will come up with next. Maybe he can buy a third truck to fix the second truck. We still have the original truck he was going to sell before he invested in anything else. Our yard is starting to look like a junk yard. He needs a hobby.
Sounds like Greg had a great fishing trip. What type of fish did he catch? Do they eat the other fish that they caught there at the camp site or the cabin? That makes it nice to be able to eat what you catch. I bet it was pretty there this time of year. Have the wives ever gone on that trip with the guys before? I just wonder if you like where they go or if it is strictly for the men. You need to find a place to go without the men. That would be fun.
It will be nice to have pictures again.The pages were getting a little dull.lol
Talk to you later

I found where I can change my pass word. Thanks for the help I do appreciate it.

Hi Cynthia,
They are letting you put other things on easy pay. I did put a top on easy pay without any trouble and did not use a q card. It is just not everything is on easy pay if you do not have a q card. So it still works.

Hi Sue,
Sounds like you have been having a nice summer there. It would have been nice if we would have had all the cool weather here. I am ready for it. We are back up in the 90’s again and that is just a little too hot. I am tired of the high humidity and hot temps.
That is going to take a while to heal. I am glad that you are not in as much pain now. Hopefully it will dissolve and everything will be better and you will be able to go back to normal. Will you have to have the knee replaced soon? That should be better then having the knee pain all the time. My sil. had that done last year and she is getting around a lot better now.
I did see the reply about the password. I will try again soon. If not I will just keep the one they gave me. I was hoping some of the girls that were on here would come back. I guess they are gone and will not ever come back on her. I miss some of them. I use to hear from a few but have lost touch with them.
Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

Hi Girls,
I found the picture of the eagle. YEA!!!!!!!!!! Look at the post to Gail and at the bottom there is an attachment and I hit that and there was the eagle. It is a really good picture. It is worth taking a look at. I cannot believe that I found it. I never find anything.lol
Gail, I think that you are right about them not making the classes like they should be. They let them take calculators into the class room or use the one on their phone and us lap tops. What is the point of them going to school. They could sit at home and do all of that stuff. We use to have to figure our math out on paper and there were no machines in the classroom to help us. I can remember the nuns telling us that we could not use our fingers or our toes. They thought that was funny. I do think that some of the kids would have tried it to show them that they could. lol
The married couple that is going on DWTS is the girl that played on Spy Kids. I do not have a clue to who her husband is. Thanks for the info on the ones that you heard about. It should be an interesting show. The young couple is the first married couple that is on the show together. It should be interesting to see how it plays out. At least they will be going thru this together.
You did not get your invitation to Jens wedding. I will send you snap shots of it.lol I do not even know when they are getting married. I hope that this marriage works better for her then the first one. I really liked her. I guess that is how life is in Hollywood. I would never want to live there.
I bet the pictures of the koi pond were really pretty. I am not on face book either. So will never know. Maybe one day we will get enough internet that I can watch any movies at all. Ron is funny about the internet. There are two things that are important right now. Enough internet and our satellite. That is about the only two things that I do anymore. When I get sick it is nice to have these two things to keep me busy.
Adele, are you going to enter to win the witches hat on the Quacker contest? I do not think that I am going to enter this time around. I do every time and I lost. So I give up. I thought that one of us would win one of the baskets but so far nothing. Maybe next one.
That is nice that all of you share the cable bill. It sure does make it easier. We do not have that many channels just the ones that we like to watch. Did you see where DWTS comes on Sept. 14th this year. So I have to get my dvr set up to tape all of them. That way I can watch them at night and enjoy them without Ron’s commentary.lol He thinks that he is an announcer. They do not have a lot of good shows on anymore. THey have that walking dead and shows like that. I guess that is the new type of shows for the year now. I like the funny shows. They sure do not make them like they use to.
Cynthia I will have to try that stuff on my hair and see if it helps. It would be nice if it did. I will look on qvc and see if I can find it.
Well that is about all from here. Hope that everyone has a good night.
Colleen

I am just glad that we all found our way here and can chat. If we do not shop on QVC we will have to give up our Quacker clothes and I am not ready for that. Even though Ron thinks that I should be but what do men know. lol Things will change and we will have to wait for that.

Hi Cynthia,
My hair is past layering. It is really thin. I do not know if it is because of the medicine that I take or what it is but It has really thinned out. My hair is really short and I just keep it that way. So I can blow dry it or let it air dry and it does not make that much of a difference. I have learned that if you comb it all forward and then comb it back it will be a little fuller that way. Not as much as it needs to be but good enough.
Your temps are a lot higher then our are. We have been in the 90’s and the humidity is high. We had a few days where it barely got up to 80 and the humidity was low so we could sit on the deck. It was nice.
Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.
Colleen
