in reply to: It's August! Time For Summer Fun! #45265
Hi Colleen,
Have you heard of a segue? (seg-way)? It has 2 wheels & you stand on it. I don’t know how much they are, but they don’t explode or catch fire ( that I know of).People use em to get around on. Look em up.

%^$#@!$$&&&***##!!!!!
Ok, now that I got that off my chest, I’ll explain. I wrote up a letter last night, including pics, & it disappeared!! Sometimes I hate this page. Not you guys, but when I spend time to write then it disappears, I get maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!
Ok, I’ll try to remember what I wrote.Colleen,
Whatever you do DON’T get one of those hover boards!! They’re DANGEROUS!!! They explode, catch fire, & cause countless injuries. I’ve seen on the news where they explode in cars, homes, & even airports. Imagine what would’ve happened had it gotten aboard the plane. They cost several hundred $$$ too. They aren’t made for small children. they should be taken off the market. If you’re intent on getting him something, get him a regular skateboard.
I don’t know how old he is but a hover board is too dangerous!!!Adele,
I’m sooooooooo jealous!!!! Those sets of Temp-tations were gorgeous!!! I love, love ,love the Harvest sets, & the new Floral Lace pumpkin. I wanted to order a set, but I’m still paying on the set of rose dishes. Maybe someday!!! Would you adopt me? That way I could be there & see all your Temptations.How’s the weather? It’s been cloudy & cool today. I swear I can feel/smell fall in the air. It won’t be long girls.
I have the Olympics on. I watch the gymnastics, swimming, diving, & track & field.Oh, I almost forgot. the meeting I had this week with the CEO. I was expecting a “suit”, but was pleasantly surprised. He was very approachable & nice.
He brought a couple other guys with him, for backup, I guess. I told em they were out numbered, lol. I’d made out a list of things to talk about.
I don’t know what good it’ll do, but he got an ear full.There’s more I can’t remember, I knew this would happen. If remember, I’ll let ya know. I’ll write it down on a piece of paper.
I’ve been really busy going here & there, doing laundry, & it’s caught up with me.
I went to the Dr. this week & he put me on a new nerve pain med. I took it last night for the first time & I’ve been in a fog all day!! I’ll have to call him & let him know it was too strong for me.
Well, I guess that’s all for now.

Just gonna make this brief, I did find you again. We had some excitement Sat. There was a fire in one of the apts on the first floor. No harm done here.
Then tonight there was a fire a block away from me. An older home converted into apts. I heard the fire trucks go barreling by out here so I looked out
& saw the black smoke & flames shooting up from behind the bldg. they got it out in a hurry. But at one time there were 4 fire trucks at the fire, & 4 more
out here across the street from me.
I’m sending along a post from one of the local tv stations comparing this summer (July) to last yrs. Quite a difference. We’re back to our normal temps now. ( I have a red line under the last two sentences & I don’t know why. ).
Well, I’ll go for now.
I’ll let ya know how the meeting goes with the CEO tomorrow.

I hope you’re all okay. I read one post about one husband came home sick from the heat. I hope he’s okay. That sounds like heat exhaustion,
or heat stroke. Both are dangerous!!! Keep hydrated in that heat. I gotta get you out here, lol. We’re having a mini heat wave (2 days), & then
it’ll cool down this weekend.
Kay & I have been having problems with our refrigerators the past few day. Hers died, & they replaced it with one they refurbished, it broke
down too. So she’s on her third one. So far so good. The maintenance gal came & checked in to mine. We made sure all the vents weren’t
covered up. A couple weeks ago I went to get some ice cream, & found it almost melted. It was almost milkshake consistency.
Well, I wrote an email to the upper upper management a couple days ago, talking about the refrigerators, among other things. Imagine my
surprise when I checked my email & found a reply to my email!!! He wants to meet with me this Tues. afternoon. This is the CEO of Home Forward.
I’ll let ya know how that meeting goes.Today is the finale of Christmas in July on the Q. I HAVE GOT TO WIN A LOTTERY!!!! So many things I want, but no $$$$$. Sigh. but they’ll have more in the next few months.
Jewell’s getting a hair cut Monday. She’ll feel a lot better.
I’m sending along some more pics to cool you down. Enjoy.
Have a great week end, stay cool!!!
ddin reply to: It's July! Let's Celebrate America! #44553Hi Ladies,
Adele, that dinosaur is called “Miposaur Robotic Dinosaur “w/ charge pack. Item #T34195, in the toys. It’s $69.72, & is for ages 8 & up. I saw the presentation with Rick. I’m not sure who was the bigger kid. It looks like an adult should be around. Maybe that’s just me. There’s a video of the
presentation on the site. It was on the Christmas in July weekend last week.Everything was 50% off on the Q today. Alas they always do these specials when I can’t afford it. Did any of you get anything new today?
I love the old cars from when I was growing up. My dad bought a 1960 Mercury Monterey, it was a land yaught, big car!!! Black body, white top, with
red interior. To the day he died he regretted trading it in for a newer model. I even remember the license plate!!! I just love the old cars, homes, you
name it.
I’m sorry to hear about your daughter’s issues with DV!! I hope she’s out of it & happy now. It wasn’t my ex that was violent, it was my father.I have a question. How is the homeless situation where you live?? It’s a BIG problem here. HUGE problem. And with the rent sky rocketing it’s only
gonna get worse. IT’s getting really nasty with a group of homeless people. The city is kicking them out of an area where people live & like to hike.
They assault people, kids, bikers, do drugs & who knows what else. It’s awful!!! And the thing is, these homeless people won’t go to shelters, or places where they’d be safe.
Well, that’s about it for now
Have a great week
ddin reply to: It's July! Let's Celebrate America! #44481Oooops, I forgot something. How many of you remember the old Rambler cars from the 50s? As a kid it was my favorite car. I always thought
it’d be my first car. Alas, it wasn’t, lolin reply to: It's July! Let's Celebrate America! #44475Hi Ladies,
How’s everyone? I hope you’re all fine & safe. Summer’s returning here. Maybe you’ll cool down now.I looked up the philosophy I pre ordered. It’s Baby Grace, set of 3 bottles. Baby Grace shampoo, bath /shower gel; olive oil body scrub;
& body lotion. Apparently they can’t keep it in stock so it must be good.
I’m glad you all enjoy the pics I post. If I duplicate, ignore it.
Not much else going on today.
talk to ya later on.
ddin reply to: It's July! Let's Celebrate America! #44416Hi Ladies,
I hope you’re all well & safe.I heard there really bad storms, & blistering heat out your way. Our cool July is about to come to an end.
We’re heating up too. Upper 80s to mid 90s by next weekend.
Nothing on the Q today. Nothing on tv, period. I’m playing my dvds of I Love Lucy, just to have something on.
Did I tell you I pre-ordered Philosophy for Sept.? It’s Baby philosophy??? It’s a big seller when they have it. I’ve watched the Philosophy on the
Q for quite sometime, but didn’t know if it was any good. You ladies told me how good it was for you so I thought I’d give it a try. They make it
look so good. That & Josie Maran.
I really wanted to order one of those flocked Christmas trees last week, but didn’t wanna take any chances. I ordered one of their trees last yr
& was not happy with it!! I got a 5′ tree with the lights & ended up sending it back. I loved the lights, but you could see right thru the tree. If I get a new one this yr I’ll just go to Wally’s & see what they have. Believe it or not, I used to go out to the tree farms & cut my own. Or buy from a local
tree farmer’s stand. Loved the scent of the fresh tree. I miss that too. I spose I could buy a real one, but I’m too old to put it up on my own.
I also pre ordered some holiday treats. I’ve tried the Landies pretzels, & wasn’t impressed. They tasted stale to me. Has anyone tried Cheryl’s cookies?
I pre ordered a set of them. I’ve never tried em yet.
Oh, I was gonna comment on something you ladies were talking about a while back. And that was about your hubbies. I know you’ve all been
married for decades, but coming from a single lady, I have to say you have some pretty great guys there. There’s a reason I’m single. I grew up
in a domestic violent home. So, unless he is verbally abusive, physically abusive, KEEP EM AROUND. We all have our faults, but there’s a huge
difference between that & being violent. Most of the guys I’ve met over the yrs don’t have the brains God gave a rock. I was married briefly in the
70’s but he was a mama’s boy & she ended up paying for his divorce. We were only married less than a yr & half.
I won’t say I missed out on anything since I had some incredible experiences over the yrs that probably wouldn’t have happened had I been married.
So, I say you’re verrrrry lucky.
Well, I’ll get off my soap box now. Have a great rest of your weekend. Stay safe!!!dd
