Good morning luvs2shop! Hope the sun will shine on you today!luvs2shop wrote: ↑4 years agoGood Morning to all!!!! Rolltide? I think we may be close to one another- We too are Bama fans and live about 30 min favorite team AND coach!
Anyway- we thought about going to Lowes and buy enough wood to start building another ark (haha). Looks like the weather is going to start clearing soon. Thankful for whatever our Father gives us! Have a wonderful day

It is very pretty here and even though I plan to sell my house, I must stay in the area. The community is a close one too.

I'm in CA, too. I LOVE rain. Not the dangers that can come with it of course, but I never get tired of rain. I love cooler weather.Sam wrote: ↑4 years agoActually, here in California, we'll take your rain, please. Thank you very much. I miss the sound and that fresh 'after the rain' smell.

Catticus- I was super happy to see you this morningCatticus wrote: ↑4 years ago@Gypsy
Good Morning!
It's almost 12:30am here. Perry Mason is about to end and then it's Twilight Zone, then two Alfred Hitchcock Presents, then Mannix, then Cannon, then Barnaby Jones! Such excitement! I don't know HOW I'll contain myself!
Not "morning" yet, here. But close enough!
The paper arrives at around 4:00 to 4:30am, sometimes 5:00 or 5:30am.
I have to go out and get it or my father will after I've "crashed" because he does not like to ask for help.
I took the trash cans out yesterday in the evening when it was darkening because I didn't want anyone to be able to really see me!
Hair in a mess piled on top of my head in a scraggly mop held by a huge lobster claw clippy, long "pajama top" and leggings!
What a sight! Scared myself!
It's a long rocky gravel drive. He can't do it with a cane. I heard a crash about 30 minutes ago, had to hurry to see what happened in their room. My mom, knocking her lamp a bit because she reaches for her water and misses!
Glad it wasn't the Hummingbird lamp that arrived broken TWICE because its glass is too thin and shatters.
That one would have gone near the bathroom door, where she could not knock it, but I won't get another because it's not safe.
I read you guys discussing your coffee and it makes me want coffee frozen yogurt or coffee ice cream! I don't drink hot drinks, but love the taste and smell of coffee!
I wish I could have Mocha Coffee Frappacinos all day and night long!
