    Techie - I'm sure you haven't been feeling well. I do hope that the pain eases soon. :hug:

      catch - Can't wait to hear how the show was. I don't know anything about him. I thought I had posted that last night but I don't see it. I also was excited for your grandson's birthday. 4 years old! Wow.

      Glassie - I'm glad that you are feeling better. Please don't overdo it. I did have to laugh about Her Highness. Oh yes - how things change with a baby. LOL I remember one time that hubby's parents were down visiting. We were all over at his Grandma's apartment. My darling son did not want to lay down. Somehow it ended up that my MIL took him in bedroom. Hubby & I thought how sweet, she wanted to hold him and rock him to sleep because she never gets to spend time with him. She thought she could just go in there and lay him down and leave. :rotlf: Didn't happen that way.

      Whew - high 90's here today. So grateful that my coworker gave me the air conditioning unit for our living room when he moved.

        Rusty - did you get to do any sightseeing while you were in Canada? I hope that you did get to spend some time out and about. I can't believe that I have never been there. I don't even have a passport which I am going to change immediately. Well, ,not quite immediately. After my nose heals. :rotlf:
        My nose was skin cancer and the hand was pre-cancer. The place on my hand has healed with a raised up bump. Keloid type. My nose still has a large red area and a scab. I forget about it and I'm sure people are just staring at it because it's pretty yucky.
        Guess who has to go get her drivers license picture taken in less than 60 days. e052.gif

        I broke down and had to go get my brows (and lip) threaded. I put a band-aid over my nose and went in. I got home and my eye brows were even. One has way more of an arch. So, I'm staring at myself trying to figure out how bad it is. Was staring at my eyebrows for 5 minutes. I finally realized that nobody is going to be looking at my eyebrows when they have my nose to focus on. I laughed so hard when that light bulb moment when on over my head. :biglaugh:

          Liz - have you been busy with the baby? Have you talked to CJ again?

          It was almost 100° here today. That is HOT.

            Hi all, Derren Brown show [MENTION=9757]NoraC[/MENTION], he put on a great show was the most incredible show I have ever seen. It was amazing how he does what he does. Me & my partner enjoyed every minute of it, he total random (???) Selection of people and mind reading. He is a magician, but in a psychological magic. He does mind control, trick of the mind. That gets you thinking how does he do it.
            Looking forward to seeing my grandson & daughter tomorrow. I always make sure who birthday it not I get them something little. I think Ruby will be looking forward to see her little present. Can't wait to see Aiden face when he open his birthday pressie. Ruby is 5 & Aiden will be 4. They both get on really well together.
            Wow NoraC that is hot where you are.
            [MENTION=11089]techie[/MENTION] will look out for this thread sounds good.
            Everyone enjoy your weekend :heartbeat:

              Nora - I'm so glad you can see the funny side. I had to have passport photos taken last week and they are terrible!!! I've been sick for so long I look practically green. They are so bad they look like I should have a mug shot number over my chest. And they'll be on both my passports for the next ten years!

              Catch - it's so lovely that you have that great relationship with your grandchildren. It's very special!!

              Liz - did the kids get off Ok and when do you expect to hear from them? I hope you're coping OK.

              Rusty - where are you off to next?

                  Hi Friends!

                  Nora, you go ahead and vent. :hug: We are here for you. YUCK...I have to get my passport replaced and I dread that picture...just like on my driver's license. Your brow story made me chuckle...they won't be looking at your nose all bandaged up. Are you in pain? I'm going to see my mom in a few minutes but I'll try and email you later. Wow, 100 degrees...totally steamy.

                  Glassie-so glad you are FINALLY on the mend. Loved the story about your grandbabe not wanting to go to sleep. Babies can be so unpredictable. To answer your question, I will be local all week...then it's off to South Carolina with my sister. Yippee! A real vacation.

                  catch-The Derren Brown show sounds like it was truly an amazing and uplifting experience for you....that would be a performance that I would want to see if he comes to the US.

                  Big hellos to everyone else. I am in a rush to get to my mom's. Happy AF Sunday!

                    Rusty enjoy South Carolina! My sister is going next week as well. How funny would it be if you saw her? If you see someone you think is me, it's not
                    Nora, I love how matter of fact you are with the nose and the eyebrows! I'm sure your nose isn't all that bad. Would a little concealer cover it for the photo? My sister was a travel agent in her former life and her motto is. . . Get the passport, you never know when your going to have leave the country in a hurry!:congratulatory:
                    Glassy, glad you're feeling better, finally. Cute story about HRH! I love that you refer to her that way:heartbeat: They do take over don't they?
                    Techie, feel better!
                    Off to church. I will post more later. Yes we have heard from CJ and their house and property are fine and untouched, thankfully.
                    Enjoy your sunday

                      I laughed that I'm not the only one with the bad picture. I always take bad pictures. Well - I say that I take bad pictures but the truth is that is the way I look!!!! :nutso: I am hoping that in another couple of weeks, the scab will be off and I can try to use a little makeup. :biglaugh:

                        How's everyone doing today? Still cleaning up after the garage sale. Waiting for someone to pick up somethings I posted online and so far she hasn't come, grrrrr. I will repost if she doesn't show. Cjs room is still a mess and it's hard to tell we even did anything.
                        Raining today and supposedly the outlook for the week. Still warm but I love it. We spoke to CJ last night. They were at the Home Depot last night and she had a signal. It was good to talk to her. There is such an ache in my heart from missing her. they are working hard and the container should have gotten there today.
                        Off to unwind a bit and cuddle with Lucy. Wishing us all a great AF night. Is anyone off tomorrow for Columbus Day?

                          Oh Liz - I'm sure you miss her so much. :hug: I'm glad that you got to talk to her. I hope that you can get her room straightened out soon. That's such a big job. I know!
                          I have to work tomorrow. Anybody off?

                            Happy Monday, Everyone!

                            Liz-did the woman pick up her item? How frustrating! :-(

                            Nora-yes, I am at home today but working, as are all of my clients.

                            Big hellos to all.

                                Hello everyone! I hope that today was a wonderful day.
                                There are bad fires in California. Up North and now down South here. The sky is just filled with orange haze, smoky. So sad. The fire is about an hour from here.

                                What did everyone do today? I hope that it was much more exciting than my day!
