Here’s some pictures. Also somewhere in California they had this huge explosion of poppies growing-also because of the rains. Beautiful!

Adele,
Ha ha ladies of the night migrating from Cal to the pacific northwest. lol I can see them now in their 4 inch stilettos and bustiers hitchhiking up the Pacific coast highway. I would hope there would be pictures! lol
They are a butterfly that people on the Q boards were talking about. I’ll have to see if I can snag a photo.

Adele,
Now I am so jealous that you make English muffin bread. That is one of my breakfast staples but I buy it packaged. I will be right over for breakfast. lol
It seems like years ago I read something how over risen bread can collapse because the air holes that the yeast makes get too big to support the bread or something like that. I’m sure…[Read more]

DD,
I never knew pollen from lilies was bad for kitties. I’ll have to remember that. It’s been a while since we had cats but i do remember how sometimes they would get in your face and tickle you with their whiskers. That made me smile. I so wish Greg wasn’t allergic and i could have a cat again. It’s funny how we used to have cats and it didn’t…[Read more]

Colleen,
We all love you and will always be here when needed. Sending warm thoughts and a big hug your way.
Gail

My Dearest Colleen,
I am so very sorry. I will pray for you and your family and I hope you will find peace and love in the fond memories of your mother.
Love and Hugs Across the Miles,
Gail

Adele,
I will pray that Joyce is better soon with no serious issues. It was nice of you guys to have Al over for Saint Patrick’s Day. I have had Irish Soda bread before at Saint Patrick’s day parties. I’m not crazy about it as it’s kind of dry. This is funny we have a friend who’s parents actually came over from Ireland and her birthday is Saint…[Read more]

Barbara,
So glad to hear that everyone is doing better at your house.
Speaking of flowers did you see on the news the poppies blooming all over the hillside in that town in California. It is quite the spectacular scene. I love the delicate poppies-plus it always reminds me of the Wizard of Oz-and that’s just what these fields look like.
I don’t…[Read more]

What’s up with our name not being at the top of the page anymore with that little number next to it showing if we have any messages or not.
Here’s the fascinator I want for the Kentucky Derby-of course at 175 dollars I think I’ll take a pass.

Hi Everyone,
Colleen, I hope that your Mom will be back to normal soon. This has been a long hard process for her.
DD, I can’t wait to see the real flowers like you posted popping up outdoors.
We are going to be in the 50’s thus week.
Sue, I hope you will be getting this nice weather soon.
Last week between the rain and snow melting all the…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I wrote a note and posted it and I also got signed out at the same time so it didn’t post. Sometimes this site acts weird.
Anyway, I was wondering if Gary was allergic to the tape. I know some tapes will give me a rash. Maybe they can change to a different type and that will help. I will pray that he heals up quickly and doesn’t have to…[Read more]

Hi Sue,
I had to look Jake Paluti up as between AI and The Voice there are just too many people to remember right now. I did like him. Katy Perry is a pain in the butt. She makes the whole thing all about her. Talk about an attention hog. I like when the judges have fun with each other but not when it’s outrageous and pulls attention away from the…[Read more]

Hi Barbara,
It’s good to hear from you. Did you get any bad storms coming through your area?
I’ll bet you are so excited to see Collin next month. And, of course Neal and Sarah too.
Did you and Jerry visit the doctor yet? Did they have any new suggestions for his constant pain?
That’s funny how the cat despises being dressed up and the dog…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
That must have been music to your ears to hear Tillie say that she wasn’t going anywhere yet. Just think how things have turned around with you going from the depths of despair to the joy that you have now. I am so happy for all of you.
I am glad that Marissa is planning on finishing school. It would sure be easier for her if she…[Read more]

Hi DD,
I’m glad for the good news on the mammo.
Greg cut his finger yesterday when he was making us salads for dinner so I had to take over so he wouldn’t drip blood on the food.
We barbecued outside yesterday. First of the season. We had to shovel some snow off the deck. lol We used to barbecue all year long but now we are too wimpy to do it…[Read more]

Hi Colleen,
It’s so good to hear from you again. I will keep praying for your Mom.
Yes the Q prices have gotten higher. I can remember when you could get a t shirt for 15 dollars or so on there. Of course prices in stores have gone up too so it’s all relative, but when I first started watching the Q things were more of a bargain than they are…[Read more]

Sue,
A good balanced diet is important. I think i eat a balanced diet too and it makes me wonder how I got so big. Probably more from lack of activity as I am not an exercise person. The things I like to do-read-watch movies-cross stitch don’t require much physical activity. I wish I was more active but that is not how I like to live. Congrats on…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I hope Gary and Heather are both feeling better. Has Heather had problems with diverticulitis before? I hope she gets checked out.
Greg is feeling better. He says he is not back to normal yet but he’s getting there.
No the beds do not move apart as they are in the same frame but the individual sides can each be adjusted. It’s kind of…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
The bread is making me hungry as I have not had breakfast yet. It looks delicious with all those different grains in it.
I will keep praying that Gary heals up quickly and as good as new. That’s interesting that Gary could not get his teeth cleaned after the heart attack. When they thought I had a heart murmur at one time I used to have…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I am glad the dressing change went well. Now you have to get Gary all healed up.
That is funny that you thought Bo Jackson was a chief. Greg was disappointed that he wasn’t there. That’s how it is with these sports guys. Greg’s brother is even worse. I always say he would watch a tiddlywinks game if someone told him it was a sport. He…[Read more]
