Sweet Dreams, Tina...I hope your Headache is gone.

Sunny, sorry for the loss in your family, but I too want to go just like that. IT sounds so peaceful.

IF you go the the children's chocolate bar bingo..I wish you both a great time.

I too am VERY tired (A good kind of tired) and I am headed to bed as well. Sweet Dreams

about 12:06: OH JOY !! It has begun & I saw the beginning--YAY !!

12:47: So glad that I went out earlier--I thought it was getting darker, but nope--it was getting overcast..(GRRRRR)

12:55--1:10-ish : the sky cleared just around the sun--and I saw an almost totality (no corona?) M in my location, complete with the Cicada or was it crickets, and I also had hummingbirds buzzing around me--then it began to leave----now it is lightly raining so I guess I am done--but hey, I got to see most of it and I am one happy lady. !!!

Hi all...it was a partial eclipse here. I was at the hospital with Grandboy anyway while it was going on....now he has Roseola(baby measles). If someone else gets sick this week then I am running away lol

Oh, I am sorry to hear that grandboy is sick. I hope he gets better soon.
I didn't come in this morning. I slept through the eclipse for the most part. I had a horrid night. I am hoping tonight is better.
Sweet dreams all.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday.

Hi all.

DH is gone to run errands as I told him I am going nowhere today lol

GG and I picked over two gallons of pole beans to blanch and freeze for Winter...today's chore. I feel so blessed to be storing ahead such as we are.

A special thank you once again to Junie for finding my special seeds for me. kissie We planted half and saved half for next year...and I will leave beans over ripen on the vine to save seeds for other years.

Morning,

I hope your gs is better soon Sunny, I remember those days of spending more time in a docs office than not... it does pass eventually... we still haven't heard if the people who want our house approved of all the fixes they wanted or if our appraisal met our price...hopefully today... Carrie is coming over today to help pack up stuff and move boxes from basement to garage..I can pack boxes but can't carry or go up and down stairs multiple times... foot swells and gets very painful still..

we didn't see the eclipse , didn't have glasses... we did see it on tv and pics posted online....

Well I have a basket of laundry to fold and put away, got to figure out what to keep out, we are packing truck up Sun and moving to a hotel till end of month, have to be here till 30 to sign papers, then we
can go.

You are welcomed, Sunny. I saw them so I just HAD to get them for you. So glad they grew well.

Good Job on sending DH out to do the errands, Sunny. men need to find out just how much work doing such as that is.

I wish you lived close to me, Sunny. With the kids gone, I have about 2 dozen quart-sized freezer containers that I need to get rid of. For jsut the 2 of us, pint-sized containers work best. Those I have kept.

Nana...so nice to hear from you, and sounds as if everything is going well. Glad to hear it.

LOL well sorry for that, Sunny. But at least you have new livestock now...

about the zip top bags with the air removed...back in the day, Ziploc put out Vacuum bags with a pump esp. made to suck out the excess air. I kept my pump & bought 2 extra boxes of bags (1 qt. sized & 1 gallon sized box). Well, I have not seen the pumps or the refill bags for years----and they worked SO very nice---oh well.

It rained this morning but then we had a beautiful day weather-wise.

Sorry for the computer issues. Cranky Computers are THE worst to be sure.

Good morning. I don't want to be up yet. But my bladder said I must.
I am looking forward to a lazy day. I hope, anyway.
I hope all have a great Thursday.

Hi all.

Nice cool breeze outside today...GG and I took advantage of it and dug up some potatoes from the garden. Yummy.
