Hi Ladies,
I hope everyone is doing fine. I’m racking my brain for days. I lost my phone somewhere & Thurs. but I can’t remember where. I went back to the store, but no one turned it in, yet. The security guard came up here to use his phone to call the phone to see if it’d ring, but nothing. My voicemail came on which means the battery is dead & it goes straight to voicemail. It’s not an expensive iPhone, it’s the next step up from a flip phone. A $20 cheapie. It’s no use to anyone with the battery dead. and if someone does find it & charges it, they still don’t have my password. I just wish I could figure out where I put it. It;s driving me CRAZY!!!!
Yes, we’re having a second summer. We’re having temps in the 80s but it’s supposed to cool off. No rain in the forecast however!! Just when I thought I could put the AC away it turns hot again!!
It’s 7:30 pm & it’s pitch black. UGH!!!! In less than a month we’ll fall back to standard time.
At my local store they have Halloween decor & I spotted a gnome pushing a wheelbarrow full of candy corn. I wanted it but it was $40. I walked on & decided to wait. Well, this week they put everything on 30% off everything.
It’s fairly large. I took pics of it but I may have to send it in an email.
Adele, I found my calendar pic of the little girl as a witch. Actually it’s 2 girls but I found it in my Christmas stuff. I somehow got it mixed up with the Christmas decor.
It’s been smoky here the past few days. No wind to blow it away.. Hopefully this week.
Well that;s all for now,
take care.

Hi Ladies,’
OK, where did Sept go? One day it’s Labor day, the next it’s October. It seems like every month just fliiiiiiiies by. We’ve been having a second summer so to speak. It was in the 80s over the weekend, but it’s supposed to be in the 70s all week, I think. October is our dramatic change month. By the end of the month we’ll lose alot of time, fog returns & the temps drop dramatically. I suppose it happens everywhere tho. I’m hoping for a good rain to show up one of these days. We sure could use a good soaking rain.
Those poor people in Fl. I have a couple friends who live down there. One lives in Jacksonville, but I haven’t heard from her yet. We were pen pals back in the 80s & 90s before the internet was invented & I actually wrote letters. The good ole days. The others are InstaGram friends who moved down by Orlando/Disney World. They fared well from what she told me. She works at DW & they actually opened for business the next day after the storm!!!!
I’m working on decorating for Halloween now & there’s something I can’t find & it’s driving me nuts!!! It’s a cute Halloween calendar pic of a little girl dressed as a witch.
Snowball’s fine, but she still hasn’t had her groomer come. He fell ill & I haven’t heard anything since then.
I better get off her this piece of trash is acting strange.
take care ladies.

HI Ladies,
I hope everyone is doing fine. Just thought I’d let y’all know I”m fine. I’ve been decorating for fall. Slow but sure. I’m not sure what your weather is but it sure feels like fall out here. Warm during the day, but when the sun goes down it sure gets chilly. It was down to the 50s last night.
I’m gonna try to stay up to watch the Queen’s funeral tonight. I don’t have a recording device so that’s out.
I don’t have much to talk about right now.
take care, stay safe.

HI Ladies,
Boy, what a difference a day or so makes!! On the first day, we woke up to cloud cover looking like fall had arrived already! But they disappeared by afternoon but it wasn’t nearly as hot as it had been. And today we woke up to a heavier cloud cover, looking like we might get some sprinkles. It’s a big relief I have to say!! I’m hoping we’ve seen the last of the 90 degree days
I’ve been putting out my fall decorations, slowly but surely. I got a ways to go yet. That’s my plans for the weekend. Nothing going on here.
I hope everyone gets well & stays that way. No fun being sick!!
Well, that’s all from out here. Happy September & Happy Labor Day weekend.

ping we’ve seen the last of the 90 days now!!
I’ve started putting up my fall decor, but I have a ways to go yet. That’s all my plans for the weekend.
I hope everyone gets well soon & stays that way.

Hi Ladies,
Have any of you noticed if any of the hosts have disappeared lately? Maybe it’s just me. They’ve been promoting a new host that was on Q2. I’ve been noticing the rotation seems to be different. I know some have been on vaca, but something is different.
It was another hot day. It’s supposed to cool off from tomorrow on thru next week. I hope.
Today is the last day the sun will set after 8pm tonight. The days are getting shorter by the day.
As you can see, I don’t have a whole lot to say tonight.
Have a nice weekend.

Hi Ladies,
I hope everyone is doing fine. Wow, I don’t know about anybody else, but we sure could use just a little bit of that rain that’s drowning the rest of the country. We have several fires going mostly in Eastern Oregon. Nothing nearby so far. Rain would go a long way in helping put them out.
Gail, I understand about the cold weather & the days getting shorter. I’ve been noticing the days are getting shorter every day. The nights are getting a tad bit cooler even when it’s 90 during the day. I see & smell fall in the air. Leaves are already falling, but it could be cause it’s been so dry!! It does get cold but nothing like back there. I just hope we don’t get snow next APRIL!! Geeeez. The mountains can get snow in late spring, but not here, at sea level.
I switched healthcare carriers awhile ago so they sent out a nurse to find out my health issues. During the ‘interview’ Snowball heard other voices out here so she had to come & investigate. She came directly to me, jumped on my lap,standing on my lap between me & the nurse. Furball, turned & looked at me as if to say, “Introduce me, mom.” I did, & after I did she left. the nurse gave her a couple scratches so I guess that’s what she wanted. Lol
Well, that’s all I have for now.
Take care. stay safe.
Tomorrow the Q is having Christmas shows.
dd & Furball

Hi Ladies,
I hope everyone is fine. I’m doing well. We’re in our fourth heatwave,& sounds like we’re in for a fifth next week. Today was weird. Overcast , smoky, & humid (for us). The heat is supposed to leave & get back to normal, till next week.
Is anyone ready for fall? I AM!! In fact, I dug out some of my fall decor but I haven’t put any of it out on display. Did any of you watch VPH’s TSV over the weekend? OMG!! I saw a good part of it & I needed to win that big lottery. She had so much beautiful things. I thought those hurricane lamps were gorgeous!! I watched the show with Dan Hughes & oh my word the studio was packed to the rafters with fall decor!!
I have a long saga to tell you about but I’ll do it later.
take care.

Hi Ladies,
I started a post last night,twice, & lost both of them!!! So I said phooey & shut it down. Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well. I’m fine. Critt’s fine, too. I bought a watermelon the other day so I split it between us & took a container of it over to him for the weekend. We’re in the middle of another heatwave, mini one this time. Tomorrow it’s supposed to be 101, then it’s supposed to cool down the rest of the week, back to normal.
Gail, I was beginning to wonder if you were okay as I didn’t see the Aug. thread. I was still into July. lol
Adele, you don’t need to be embarrassed about having Disney. I’ve had Disney since I got cable in the 80s!! I’ve had it for decades! It’s alot different today compared to back then. It was primarily the animated portion of Disney. Disney+ has a bigger variety of programming for adults, & the animated movies for the kids. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about having. Besides I don’t think anybody really cares these days.
Did you ever find David as Dracula? I’m surprized you can’t find it on your computer. QVC.com should have it on their website. I found it there.
Your pesto looks good. I’m not good at making pasta.
Well, I better close before I lose this one too!!
