    Good evening everyone!

    Just got home from an early dinner in honor of 46 years of blessed marriage, haha! I can’t even remember who I was back then other than a young person with big hopes & dreams. Some came true, some did not but I’m alive & still kickin

    Mick, your video was fantastic, thanks!
    You must have sweat a ton up in that foil box getting all that stuff working. Very nice :welldone:

    Hello to Pauly, PQ, Det, Sam, Pie & anyone else stopping by.

    We decided today that if we are still alive & well in 4 years we are going to throw a big backyard bash to celebrate 50 years!!!
    We can hire one of the local guys to do a pig roast for the carnivores, haha & a caterer for the rest of the food. Sound good??

    Have a nice night everyone!

      MAE ALL...

      Mick...sounds like Jeeves is doing much better. You're going to have to put all those switches on timers. LOL

      Lav...congrats on 46 years. The backyard bash for your 50th sounds great, just let me know when. LOL

      I think we actually had summer today, which was nice seeing as how we're back to rain all next week.

      Shout out to the rest, have a great evening all....:smile:PPQP

          hi ppqp..yep I couldnt find the switches when I put the lights out !!duh..Im still not convinced with Jeeves..I watched him eating ,but its very sporadic ..now whether thats him and his eating habit ,or whether he is still poorly I need to watch.so has summer continued for you today?

          hiya pauly ,how are you then?all good I hope...so I take it hubs has got a smoking machine?ribs n chicken yum yum

          a big hello to everyone else take care and have a good day

          I said, "Wow, your sisters are really fcking ugly."

            MAE ALL...

            Impromptu trip to Sylvan Lake, about an hour north of me, today visiting relatives and celebrating Canada Day. Got to take advantage of day 2 of summer. Just got back as the clouds, rain and wicked windstorm started.

            Mick...your video is great! There's been lots of changes on the ol' railway, wow. Loved the lights that did come on and hope you didn't stub anything looking for the other switches. LOL Glad you're keeping a close eye on Jeeves. From personal experience things can seem fine one day and not so fine the next. I've decided when I die I want to come back as one of your rabbits. We have dropped 15 degrees in the last 15 minutes! Showers and thunder storms for the next 7 days.

            How many times can you sell a homing pigeon on eBay ? :rotlf:

            Pauly...I think the best thing about the investment is hubs does the cooking. LOL Hope you get a better sleep tonight. I've been out of my routine with 4 days off so I'm hoping I get a good sleep tonight. Not taking afternoons off this week as the plan is to put in a new server and upgrade all the workstations, will keep me busy. Any overtime I'm tacking onto more long weekends.

            Not sure what's for dinner tonight, will have to see what's in the fridge. Hoping we all have a restful evening...:smile:PPQP

              Greetings friends,

              Still hot & ugly here,yuck. I am already over this summer BS, haha!!
              Still can’t sleep & feel like I’m dragging all day. I just sleep better in fall & winter for some reason.

              PQ, Happy Canada day! Glad you got out to see some family & friends
              I see we are due for rain the rest of the week but it doesn’t look like it’s going to cool down any. Good luck with your new server & workstation upgrades.

              Pauly, I feel like I’ve been married my entire life ~ almost!
              My son has a smoker & does lots of meats. Of course we haven’t had an invitation over there for many years. Don’t get me started. I stopped inviting them over for dinners & cookouts quite a while ago, have they even noticed? Ha ha. I feed the boys whenever they’re here though.

              Mick, it seems to be raining everywhere right now, weird. We are into hurricane season but nothing has developed yet, thank goodness.
              My daughter & her family are heading up to the mountains Wednesday to camp for a few days. I hope they have better weather, no fun camping in the rain! We heard from the son of our elderly friend today. He is getting ready to sell her house now that she is in the care facility. He’s going to find someone to appraise the massive train collection his father left - it’s huge.

              Hello to Det & Sam & everyone.
              Have a nice night!

                Happy Unhung Monday ABeroooos!

                oh my, got to catch up. Mick has a train video? must find that for sure.

                We were going to Newport but ended up in Santa Monica (long story) but it was a hoot and much fancy food and beach-going activity was enjoyed
                by the 3 of us. We even went on the roller coaster on the pier and an old-fashioned wooden horse carousel. I swam and body-surfed for hours
                and really got the ol tan going strong now. Here's a few of my typically 'out there' photos of the festivities at night using a slow shutter for effect:

                *pictures* Shared album - Xring007 - Google Photos

                Lav, mega kudos on your 46 anny!!!!!! what a trooper you are, and still smiling

                still getting my stuff and laundry all sorted here so a brief post tonight.

                So happy to report that even amidst all the drunken touristy places and festivities that the thought of boozing
                didn't even cross my my for a second. What a relief. yay! life is pretty darned good. Did manage a huge back ache
                from the long drive but that's ok and all better now. And who doesn't like snuggling on fresh hotel sheets?

                PPQ, in my finest singing voice: Oooooooh Caaaaanaaaadaaaaaaaahhh! :P
                hope you had fun despite the weather.

                time for zzzzz

                gnight loves and be well

                    Re: june30 th

                    Good evening folks,

                    Well a great big storm just rollled in - hope it cools things off a bit. It was 94 & humid again today, yuck.

                    Det, sounds like you had a real fun adventure, nice
                    It truly is freedom to enjoy yourself without AL thoughts ruining everything!! I am very happy for you!

                    Mick, I’m happy to report my daughter informed me today that she rented an air conditioned cabin for their camping trip, LOL
                    I think that was a great choice & now I won’t be worried about them in a stinking little tent if storms pop up like we’re having now.
                    I will keep hope that my son & daughter get back on speaking terms before one of us oldies croaks!
                    I never thought to take a picture of that train layout. I’ll look thru FB & see if his son has any on there, he may.

                    Hello to PQ, Pauly, Cyn, Sam & anyone else stopping by.
                    We’ve lost the satellite TV, next goes the power, oh boy.

                    Have a nice night everyone!

                      MAE ALL...

                      Lav...at least when it rains here the temperature goes down. Shouldn't say that too loud though as I heard we're going down to 35F tonight with a risk of frost. :shutup: Not sure when the server install is going to happen but was planning for sometime this week. We will probably do it overnight so everything's working in the morning. Fingers crossed.

                      Det...glad you had a good time even if it wasn't Newport Beach. Nice pics, looks like it was a good family place. Isn't it great realizing that you didn't even think about booze!

                      Mick...it was dark and rainy here this morning too but the sun did come out. Hope your leg improved, you take it easy. I wonder if I'll like kale in my new life. LOL I hope Jeeves is ok and that Julie is right about you being paranoid.

                      Gman...good to see you've been lurking around. Hope all is well with you.

                      Full day of work today but it went by really fast. Couldn't believe the work waiting for me after just taking Friday off. Gotta say it was really nice not to have the prog coord in! Hoping to get an afternoon of bridge in tomorrow. During the summer months it's a drop in scenario so never know how many will show up. Have a peaceful evening all....:smile:PPQP

                          It will only take you home via country roads.

                          People seem surprised by the level of London knife crime. But when you look at the City of London flag, it has a sword in the top quarter. A sword that represents the beheading of Saint Paul, patron Saint of London.

                          Looking at the Essex flag (and in typical Essex fashion) it has three cutlasses.

                            Greetings friends,

                            The heat & humidity continues, yuck. Can’t stay outside for more than 5 minutes without feeling sick.
                            I’ve made no plans for tomorrow, think I’ll sit inside & enjoy the cool air
                            I am not happy about the parade plans Trump put together for DC tomorrow. He’s insane to waste $2.5 million dollars (our tax dollars).
                            Vets are homeless, lacking healthcare, children are in interment camps suffering like dogs & Trump wants to parade tanks down Pennsylvania Ave. I can’t wait until this nightmare presidency is over.

                            Mick, tomorrow is your 7 year AF anniversary, yay for you :welldone:
                            We all benefit from your positive energy every single day!!
                            Take care of yourself & don’t let the heat get to you. I hope Jeeves is better.

                            PQ, I’ll take your frost!!!! Seriously!!! I can’t believe your weather changes that drastically, it’s crazy!!

                            Pauly, hello to you!

                            Hello to Cyn, Det, Sam & anyone else dropping by.

                              MAE ALL...

                              Lav...the frost didn't appear but it was mighty cool this morning. Mostly sunny today and now the clouds are rolling in and temp dropping again. Showers early this evening changing to rain overnight and continuing for a couple of days. Gotta say all this rain followed by a couple of hours of heat has sure got the gardens looking great. Need to get a pic up for you guys. Carrot tops plans reminds me of 2 little boys saying my tanks are bigger than yours. I think we'll all be glad when the nightmare is over.

                              Mick...is that the rest of the blinds to go up? It will sure help keep it cool inside. I think watching sports is so much better when you know someone who is participating. Tomorrow may be Independence Day but to me it's Mick Day! Congrats and like Lav says you are so appreciated on this thread. I may have all your adventures confused but are you off to Crete on Friday? I think you and Julie are doing a hike while you're there. Alas no card playing today, nary a seat to be found. LOL It's just a case of who shows up during the summer and all the ladies say "I'll go home and you can play." No way, they're the ones who actually paid for the program.

                              Pauly...short and sweet pop ins are better than no pop in. Hope you had a good day.

                              TG...thinking of you and hope your road trip is going ok.

                              Det...back to a normal work week? I bet you live for your weekends. LOL

                              With the temp dropping and rain just starting I've decided I want real food for supper tonight. So it's prime rib roast, roast potatoes and cauliflower with cheese. Must get at it. Have a restful evening all...:smile:PPQP
