A very cool book with detailed pictures,, I will for sure read this to my grandaughters when they get here in August!

She also brought Fairy rocks from a Park in Virginia, where they are found everywhere,, fairy rocks legend says When Christ was crusified, all the fairy's of the lands cried and that their tears turned to stones as they fell to the ground and took to the shape of Crosses,, ,, The two little fairy rocks I've placed on top of the book truly are in the shape of crosses,, How interesting is that! they are small about an inch in length,

Diane, I so loved looking at that book with you!!! Didn't we find really neat things in it?!
I was happy to get you things...I only wish it could have been more...you so deserve it!!!

Glenda, it was funny having those gloves on!!. As this one was for you....another one taken is for Cindy, and I'm sure Diane will send it to her!!!

I took pictures today of the things Diane got me. You will be so happy for me!!! As I am!!!!!! Thank you so very, very much Diane!!!!

Next post.................

First, here is a very nice bath set she got me, as I may not have been able to bring much on the plane. Very useful here and when I get home.



And here is a solar light ball, for me to set among my plants in my apartment!
(my plants and gnomes are going to love that. But I hope they don't play all night with that light on them!



And here is my I Love Texas t-shirt she got me. You saw that one on me, I wore it to the comedy club. Love clothes!!! (Now I have 4 new t-shirts! (I bought myself one too, when we went shopping!! )

Here is a wonderful card she gave to me, which she had mentioned, in Banter Hall, about getting but had not told who it was for....It was for ME!!!

It is so precious and wonderful, I want you to see the outside and read the inside!!!

AND THIS....this is what is going to blow you away! It certainly did me!!

She got me this luggage for my Birthday, and saved it until I got here to give it to me. There are three pieces and they are RED!!!!! My favorite color!!!



Then...open sesame...inside is another piece!


and then....open sesame again.....and there is the carry on bag!!!!




Diane you are too much!!!!

Thank you so much for each and every thing you gave me!!!! :ding:

Sorry that last picture was so blurry!!

And besides all that, which I get to take home, I got the gift of being around Emmy girl, of the tiny sweet face and loving on her!!! I wish I could stick her in that carry-on bag!! Except, she licks me too death....she looks me right in the eyes and as soon as she gets close to me her tongue starts going before she even touches me!!!!

I am drinking the most scrunptious Dreamcicle right now!!!!

when we went to Cedar Hill and you had that large Suitcase with out wheels,, I knew right then what you were getting for your birthday!
So I looking for sales,, American tourister had the best deal for the best Person to get it for! your very welcome! :wink:

Btw you guys,, when she brought that red set into my bedroom to take pictures she DID NOT ROLL IT,, She Lifted and carried it so I made her practice rolling it back into her room!

Diane said: Btw you guys,, when she brought that red set into my bedroom to take pictures she DID NOT ROLL IT,, She Lifted and carried it so I made her practice rolling it back into her room!

Well....I wasn't use to rolling one! She really did make me practise too!!

This is not fair. I can't see the pictures at work and YES school is open here today. Yuck!!!!


Oh by the way Shirley, I think YOU are a sight!!!!

We have been up and outside, and finished coffee.

I'm rounding up my stuff from the bathroom, getting it together.

Sheri, I didn't know there would be school today anywhere?!!

Hey, I'm right about some things and wrong about a lot of things......which thing am I right about? LOL

Shirley, you're not RIGHT, you're a SIGHT!!!

Those gloves look great on you Shirley! Purple is your color!!!!

Hi Glenda! Thank you and Diane for letting me try them one!

Got back from a lake...watched men put their big ole' boats in the water....watched kids feeding big ole' fish with BIG ole' mouths!!....and watched ducks, geese, and something with an ugly head that looked like a turkey to me!!

Got some Texas souvenirs, besides my t-shirts,.....TX frig magnet and coffee mug,....and a gardening magazine to look at on the plane.

Diane is cleaning hummingbird feeders AND making blueberry pancakes!!

blueberry pancakes. Yummy. You're gonna have to pay extra for weight when you board the plane on the way home.

Shirley,

So nice to see you in purple..LOL

You had a very intresting trip.......That Diane is an excellent hostess.

When is take off time? Is that today?

Shriley you smiled for days on here, and we are going to miss thet show when you fly away.

dodge..........Thanks for sharing the views.

But Dodge I'm usually laughing or smiling at home too...I just don't take pictures of myself to share!

Plane take-off time is 7:15 this evening...that's TX time....my son picks me up in Dayton at 7:30 .....that's OH time!! Wow, it looks like only a 15 minute flight there.

I've had a wonderful time! And Diane is an excellent hostess!!

Hey there is a red bloom open on my one Vinca, and other buds which will probably open tomorrow! Diane, take good care of my babies!!

They were good too!!

I'll probably try not to eat between now and then!!

I loaded Shirley up and Sugary fattening food! I even got her in the kitchen and showed her ( well actually told her and she did it) how to make a grahamcracker cake.
you can't tell by the picture so much but it's blue and red striped, cool whip for the frosting,

This Morning,, we went to krogers,, walmart and Joe pool lake,
at the lake we just stayed around the marina area,
Shirley said she'd stand by her Boat



we don't know what kind of duck this was but it is UGGGGGGGGGGLY!
It looks like Half turkey half duck



This is off the feeding fish dock,,,

One Lone gold Fish among the others


mama duck and baby's




from the boat docking area,, this lake is huge what this picture shows is only 1/4 the of the lake area,


the rest of the day we are just going relax and do nothing,, and maybe even take a nap!

It's been great having Shirley here,, She said I am too busy tho,, I'm always doing something inside or out side,, ,, Hmmmmmmmm No wonder I feel tired all the time;

That's right!!! busy, busy, busy! Then works all week! Then on here half the night! Then up with the birds!!!! I don't know when she sleeps!!!

Better to be busy than bored.

Wonderful pictures of a terrific visit among friends.

I need to go back outside, but I wanted to say that I think your goldfish in that picture is a KOI Diane!!! Wonder how he got there?

I wondered if it got dropped off, like a stray cat!!

that graham cracker cake looks so good. Shirley you're so much fun.

We're about to leave for the airport Sure is awesome having you here Shirley
