and one more

Hi...Just read all of the recent post and you ladies have made me tired with all that you have to do. Not the greatest day that I've had...my son called earlier to tell me that his MIL had died yesterday. It was a shock. She was far too young and vital, but then again...she had lived a good life More...

Suzy, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings with my fence remark. The little pun just came to me as I typed so I typed it. I always have been a smart-mouth. I'll be in the naughty corner if you need me.

Mama, my sincerest condolences to your son and his wife on the untimely passing of their mother/MIL.
I must agree with you, I hope to go whilst still reasonably well, rather than have suffered for any length of time.

Sucky thing...what sucky thing?!

Ruby, your fence 'post' pun gave me a chuckle earlier!

Sorry to hear about your son's MIL Mamacita.Our thoughts are with your family at such a sad time.
But it does bring home to us that are around that age to make sure we make the most of every day.God grant us the health to enjoy them.

Marmacita so sorry to hear about son's MIL . I agree with you time is so short, so forget sucky thing (I let my retired hubby do it now) - I did it for 40 years - don't miss it at all. Just been reading about 20 pages of posts seeing I haven't been around for a while, must try not to leave it so long next time. Hi to everyone - I've missed you

Welcome back Lee, missed you too.

Welcome back, Lee.

I also extend my condolence to your son and dil, Mamacita.

I hope that my body and mind go at the same time.

Mamacita - add my thoughts and condolences to the list. I thoroughly agree - enjoy life now!

Oh, welcome back Lee - I've been gone for weeks until the last few days. Hopefully I'll be able to pop in more often for a while.

Hi Lee. Good to see you back again.

8 to go - will I make a run for the TOPP and CP along the way. Nah, I've got zero TOPP's on SA5 so I'll try to stick with that. See if I can get none at all. Got lots on SA4.
Off to watch some telly while I wait for hubby to come home.

It was actually 28 CynB. That would have been a lot of CP's

Hi
Anyone about here?? Might open flipwords lol ehehhe

Don't do it Elise! you will lose the rest of the day

Hi all,
Brother and family got here from Canada safely yesterday. They have left this morning to go up north for a week and then to Wales for a further week. Finally coming back here for the last few days of their holiday.
I have to try and tidy the house up again after their one day stay here

But I have been good today, I have not played a game. YET. lol ehehehhe

answering questions from a few pages back.
Ruby, we have tropical fish, this new tank is an up grade from a 90lt tank my daughter has. I would love to have a marine tank with all the really brightly coloured and wonderful shaped fish, but they are supposed to take a lot of looking after (more More...

Ruby, Callie is doing fine now, she had a scratched cornea recently which took about a month and a few visits to the vets to sort out. She didn't like having to wear the cone to stop her rubbing and scratching at her eye. Touch wood all is better now.

Suzy, Yes the 190ltr tank is huge, funny it didn't look quite so big in the shop fortunately we had a space big enough to fit it into the lounge.

Elise, excuse my ignorance but what part of Australia is Pt Macquarie?

It is in the state of New South Wales.
About 5 hours north of SYDNEY.
On the Mid North Coast.
I just used Google Earth to find where you are. lol
That is a marvellous program

Very quiet in here tonight.
Playing FLIPWORDS though.
1,000 points for the word 'SOURED'.

I should have googled where you were, but if I go on there I get stuck looking at all sorts of different places and get nothing more done for ages, and as I am supposed to be doing some urgent work...

Google earth has a lot of 'splaining to do for even MORE lost hours!

Evenin all!

I have been kept off the computer all evening by the younguns. The world has been tipped on its head! I'm usually the one keeping them off!!

Good morning all! Beautiful morning here but it is supposed to get hot and humid this afternoon. Getting down to the last few days of packing before Meghan leaves for Cairo. She has an 11 1/2 hour layover in Heathrow. I don't know what she'll do stuck in the airport all of those hours. Someone More...

Post 1989 - very good year, S1 was born. So was 1988, D1 was born! (saw the number at the top, couldn't resist a comment!hehe)

Stella, you are sounding much more relaxed !!

make sure Meghan has a good book to read, and/or a large sudoku book to fill out.
It's Meghan's problem on how to keep herself occupied for 11+ hours..not yours Stella !!

Morning all!

I slept late this morning - it was you guys keeping me awake in the chatroom last night...

Stella - I had a 6 hours layover at Heathrow in 1988 and actually enjoyed exchanging a few dollars in currency and wandering around. It's all a part of the adventure!

Rolanda - congrats on the birth of your new great niece, who shares a birthday with my niece!!
