Hi Ladies,
here are some pics of the Southern Oregon coast. Isn’t it gorgeous?? And getting to the coast from here, we drive thru some of the most
gorgeous forests!! It’s like driving into a post card. I’ve got to get you guys out here. You may not leave. No humidity, no tornadoes, bad thunderstorms (we have them occasionally, but they don’t last very long).

Well that’s about it from here for tonight.

Hi Ladies,
Just a quick note, nothing to write about tonight, but I thought I’d send along some pics to cool every body off.

Hi Ladies,
So how’s everybody? I’ve calmed down now. Anyone watching the conventions? I hate politics so I’m not. We really don’t have a choice
this time.
I’m sending along some scenic photos I found on Facebook. they’re of parts of Oregon. It really is a gorgeous place. So many places to visit,
hike, have a picnic, just enjoy the view. The weather isn’t as bad as it’s made out to be. We just whine a lot!! You guys would double over laughing
when we whine. Esp when it comes to the humidity, etc. It’s supposed to start warming up tomorrow & be more summer like the rest of the month.
well that’s all I have for now.
talk to ya later.

Hi Ladies,
I haven’t been on here this past week since I didn’t have anything to say. There’s been entirely TOOO MUCH blood shed this week/week & half!!!
It’s out of control & everybody needs to get down on their knees & pray for God’s Protection!!! It seems Every day or so there’s more killing. It HAS GOT TO STOP. I’m sorry for yelling, but I’m fed up to the eyeballs with all the horrible news I turn on every day!! That’s why I always have QVC on most of the time. they don’t break in with special reports of more violence. My bank account suffers for it.
Did anyone watch the CIJ weekend? I did, & saw lots of things I wanted but couldn’t afford. Besides not needing anymore decorations!! LOL.
I did pre-order some food items for Nov. & Dec. Chocolate makes up the majority of it. LOL. Chocolate is my favorite food group.
We’ve been having a spring like summer this month. Mostly cloudy days with cool temps. We get a marine layer of clouds that comes down the Columbia
river from the Pacific ocean & keeps things cool. But after last yr, not many are complaining. Warmer temps are on the way tho. So summer isn’t over yet.

Happy Birthday, Colleen. I hope you had a wonderful day.

I hope you all have a great week.

Hi Ladies,
I hope your weekend was relaxing & uneventful. Mine was pretty quiet, as usual. We’ve had some pretty cool weather for July. It didn’t even get up
to 70. We got showers overnight & the days were fairly dry. But summer’s on the way back they say.
I went to the store Sat. morning, & on the way home, I spotted a police SUV parked just up the street, on my way home. As I passed by I turned to
see if it was occupied. I saw 2 officers inside, so I went over & thanked them for their service & I said I was so sorry for their losses. They thanked
me & I went on my way. It was a perfect opportunity to do that.
Sat. would’ve been my mom’s 100th birthday. It’ll be 30 yrs this Nov. that she passed. Sure miss her.

Oh, did you know that QF will be on tomorrow (Mon.) & Tues. Be sure to check your local listings. According to my guide it’s on 3 PM ET Monday,
4PM ET Tues. Enjoy.

Tara, from Temp-tations, got married Sat. They shared some photos on FB. I’ll send a couple pics along with the rest. It’s a little light after what was
a horrific week. Seeing some happiness is uplifting.
I guess that’s all I have for now.
Have a great week.

Hi Ladies,
OMG!!!! What is happening to this country?? Just 4 days ago we were celebrating our country’s birthday. Today it’s coming apart at the seams!!!
Talk about a terrorist attack in Dallas!! It reminds me of the assassination of Pres. Kennedy. Snipers on roofs (I heard) killing police. We had peaceful
protests too, but nothing like that!!! We need lots of prayers for our country. The downfall will come from within.

We have rain here. Feels refreshing though. Odd for July. July is our hottest/driest month of the yr. It’s gonna be around for a few days.
Not much else to talk about. I’ll go back & read your posts later on.

Hi Colleen,
I know exactly how you feel. That happened to me last week with the pics. I forgot to sign off earlier. Ooooppps. It’s done that to me when I first
started. I don’t know what I did but things vanish I can’t figure out why. So I guess I’m not alone.

Hi Ladies,
I had a wonderful holiday weekend. I went down to Kay’s Monday afternoon & we grilled the steaks on a stove top grill she had. I made the potato
salad, cobbler, & corn on the cob. We were stuffed when we got done.
On Friday, I took the bus out to WalMart (Wally’s), & while I was shopping I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned & it turned out to be my niece’s hubby.
They were there cuz her mom had to use the rest room. ( Her mother & I both worked for Arlene & we became good friends. Hallie, her daughter refers to me as her “aunt Dianne”, & her mom’s best friend. they’re not blood relation.). Confused?? Sometimes so am I!!! So we shopped around for awhile & made plans to meet the next day (Sat,). We met up Sat. at one of the large malls down close to where they live. We left there & we went shopping in
places I hadn’t been to in yrs. It gave me a chance to spend time with them as I don’t get to see them very often. It was a lot of fun getting out of this place for longer than a few minutes. The weather was great all weekend. A marine layer of clouds would come in over night & then the sun would burn em off mid morning, so it wasn’t blistering hot. It was perfect!! And it’s been that way all weekend. It was a bit cooler than expected on the 4th, but that’s okay. it was better than 95 or 100!!! Jewell got upset when the fireworks started going off. It was kids or adults in the neighborhood setting em off even tho it’s illegal now. I had to put her in the bathroom & shut her in there for the duration. Poor baby!! She’s fine today.

About CIJ I’m thinking they didn’t show a lot of good stuff since it was a holiday weekend. So I figure they’ll have other shows later on with the good stuff. They’ll have shows all thru July I’m sure. Just be patient. What’s the Insider? Never heard of it.
