Hi Gail,
I wonder what is going on that we are all losing our posts. DD wrote and said that she lost hers also. Maybe ther is just too many people on here right now who knows. That is weird that it signed you out. It did not sign me out just erased my message.
We did not know anyone that went to Aspen dental and I wish we did. We will never use them again and will tell everyone who asks about a dentist. It is not a good place.
Our dentist retired. He did not have a partner so we were kind of left on our own. We did have one dentist that he sent our records to but we did not like him so we have been looking for a new dentist for awhile. This guy we found is young and should be around for a long time. We liked all of his staff also.
I do not think that the dentists here are doing cleanings here. I think that all they do is fill teeth and work on them if you are in pain. It was weird when I went to the dentist. You have to wait out in your car and call them and let them you are there. They tell you if you can come right in or have to wait. I got to go right in and they took care of me right away. When I came out there wasn’t anyone in the office. When I got in my car a lady was walking up to the door. It is strange.
How are Jenny and the kids doing? I bet they are having a really good time with the new dog. They probably are spoiling him.
Well that is all from here. Have a great day

Hi Gail,
I wrote to you yesterday and got ready to send and the whole disappeared. I have no idea where it went but it was gone. So I gave up and thought I would try today.
I love my air fryer. We have one of the pieces that allow you to cook a whole chicken. We have done that and it was really good. We make fries, Corky’s chicken drummies, we have made a lot of other things in here my raviolis. Just about everything that I use to fry.
We will probably get sick of watching all the movies that they come out with about this time. We will not want to watch them because we lived thru them. Either that or we will watch get mad because they made such a mess of things when they tell the story. It will be interesting to see what happens.
That would be funny if their other dog was named Linus. That would be a cute idea. It is hard tto think up names for new dogs. We try not to name a new dog after an older dog that we have lost.
I had to go to the dentist this morning. I was surprised that I only have one tooth that needs work. I was surprised because I had gone to Apen dental and they said that just about all my teeth need work and I was going to have to get a partial. So when I went to this dentist I was surprised to hear what he had to say. I am glad that I went to a different dentist. I heard that you have to be careful with Aspen Dental.
Well that is about all from here. Have a great day.

Hi Everybody,
It has been crazy around here. They came here to day to install the new furnace and air conditioner today. There were three of them and they were all really good and very polite. They got started and had to quit and wait for parts. They sat around in the back yard and waited for the parts to come. Then they got the furnace put in and had to wait the air. It was getting to be dinner time so I fixed dinner for them. They said that they did not want to be trouble but I told them I had to cook anyway. I had a bag of Corkys drummies so stuck them in the oven. I put french fries in the air fryer and that was dinner. They all ate a lot I figured they would they had been there day and most of the evening they had to be hungry. So now we have everything fixed and hopefully we will be fine for a long time.
Gail, The puppy is so cute. That is a cut name for her. It seems like Lucy and Luke are going to be friends they were laying close to each other. I love all the memes they always make me smile. We really need that. I am so disappointed the news was showing something cheerful everyday but now we have the death watch every morning every hour. Why can’t we talk about the survivors? We have a lot of them too.
Barbara, those stupid lizards can get into anywhere. We have had them get into the house. That is always a surprise when they get in. The grands use to bring them in the house with them when they were younger. Ron said that one of the girls did not shut the window and they had pulled the screen open too. So they were crawling in the window. If a snake ever gets in here I am gone. I guess everybody in the medical field is working as many hours as they can. I feel bad for them and I hope that they get time off when this is over. I think that Joey was talking about skype. We did that and now I forgot how to do that. I have to have it set up again. We need to go to Costco and pick up somethings. I am not sure when we will get there.
Adele, I like all of your yard ornaments. They are all so cute and will look good in the yard. That would be better if they had a few minutes in each broadcast if they gave names of the people that died from the obits instead of just giving statistics. At least show some feelings. That was a good idea to get those and the kids can buy them for you as a gift. We may have to do that here also. We may never see them to get what we want. It does make it easier for the kids. Mine never know what to get us.
Well that is about all from here. Have a great night.

Hi Barbara,
Thank-you for for the wishes. We had a good day even though we were alone. We picked up food for dinner Ron got Mexican and I got Colton’s. (steak house). We just came home and ate and then watched tv.
They have those mom’s or grandma’s memories that you can write that in and keep it for them. They will enjoy reading it. They can also pass it down to their kids.
It seems to see the doctor over the phone instead of in person. My last appointment with the back doctor was on the phone. I hope this is not going to be a new way of doing things.
Your soup sounds really good. That was nice that you sent some to Lisa and Joey. They will enjoy it. Are they still working? I figure that Joey is but not sure about Lisa do not remember what she does. My mind id going.
My great grand is really growing. He is getting really chubby but so cute. All I have seen lately is pictures and would be glad to see him in person again.Babies are so cute and cuddly. I know that you miss your little one. I am so glad that you got to see him before they moved.
Well that is about all from here. Have a good night.

Hi Adele,
I am glad that the threatening e-mails have stopped. You sure did not need that in your life. right now. It was smart to send that to the police. I hope they can catch them.
The man who is doing the furnace and air has done work for Ron’s sister and bil. They said that he does a really good job and stands behind his work. This man use to work for the original man that owned the company. When he got sick this guy bought the company and carried out all the wishes of the owner. So that made us think a lot of him.
I did not see the Blue Bloods last night. What happened and who was the extra person at the table? I cannot believe that I missed it. We were just busy yesterday and did not get done til late.
I missed the second Mamma Mia also. What channel was it on? It may have been on a channel we do not get. We do not get net flex or any of those channels. The first one was so good. Were any of the original people in the second one or were they all different.
The babies are growing so fast. Grayson is getting to be a little butter ball. Maybe he is getting ready to start moving more. It will be interesting if he will start rolling over or if he is a little chunky and can’t. lol It will be interesting to see
Maybe this virus will be over soon and the kids can come home. Mine are going to come over one day next week. We are going to stay outside and they are going to set the chairs up so we are far apart. It will be fun to see them all and spend time with them.
Well that is about all from here. Have a great night.

Hi Adele,
Everything is getting better around here. The septic is fixed and the furnace and air will be fixed on Monday. They will be wearing masks and doing all the protective things that they are supposed to do. So everything will be done and we can relax. No more people running in and out and no more thing going wrong for awhile for awhile.
I am glad that you are cheering up and smiling more. The stress is getting to be too much. It is hard not to get together with our families like we use to and really want to. I found out that my daughter that works at the dollar store is not wearing a mask. I could not believe it when she told me. She said it smothers her and she cannot stand it. I told her if she thinks that is bad if she gets this virus she will have a lot more on then just the mask. It is hard to get her to listen to anything.
That is terrible that you cannot get on the computer without being harrassed. It is getting really bad. Well that would make me not want to ever get on face book.
Well that is about all from here. Have a great night.

Hi Gail,
They are talking about opening restaurants but there will be less tables and spaced farther apart. They will have to wait in line to be let in and not wait all together. I am waiting to hear that we will have to have reservations. None of that sounds bad to me. The one thing that sounds funny they will be wearing masks. I know that they want to be safe but it just sounded funny.
Jenny’s puppy sounds so cute. They will have a lot of fun with him. I am assuming it is a he I do not know why. I guess because the dogs that we have are males. We went thru enough of ending up with puppies.
That is what I miss most is the grands. Aliza has asked me a couple of times if she can spend the night. I hate telling her that she can’t right now. She does not understand. The other kids just tell us they miss us and can’t wait to see us.
The sun is shinning here. It is nice out but the rain is on the way back. I hope it shines all day tomorrow but it is going to rain tomorrow night. It will be better with the sun shinning.
Have a good night.
Colleen
p.s. tell Jenny Happy Birthday!

Hi Adele,
That is terrible that he did not pay what he owed. It makes it worse when he keeps putting people off like that instead of telling them he does not have the money. He could try and work with people to get his bills paid.
I think that is what bothers me more then anything else. I miss the grands so much and wish that they could be here with me right now. I do hear from them and that makes my day better. I have been getting pictures of the kids so that helps also.
It did not rain today so that was good. It was cloudy all day and was cool. It is cold tonight. I hope it stays cool until they get my air put in. This is going to be an unusual summer.
Have a good night.
Colleen
