Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room.

same thing. yesterday we made shrimp fettuccine, i did not want to get rusty.

Mmmm. Shrimp fettuccine. Sounds delicious!

Just lost my little girl.

Is this one of your kitties, oldbroad?

Yes. The little girl who used to poke me in the eye but she had finally stopped doing that. The only other cat left here is the one who won't talk to me at all. My house feels utterly empty and so does my heart. She was the mother cat and the smartest cat I ever had. She drove me crazy being pesty which is what's really going to be hard - going to total nothing at all.

Oldbroad, my heart goes out to you.

We have had up to five cats at any one time and are now down to one little pedigree blue-point Persian aged 18: naturally she is spoiled rotten and I know that when she crosses the rainbow bridge it will be very upsetting indeed.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Lunch and Netflix with a friend today. Oldbroad Big Hugs.

So very sorry to hear of your loss, oldbroad. I know that pain of a loss of our furry friends and my heart is broken for you. :hugs:

Have a great day everyone! We went from 48 days of gloom, chilly temps and rain ( So. Much. Rain!) to temps in the 90's. Things are finally blooming and getting green!

Oldbroad, I am so sorry to hear this. It's going to be way too quiet now.

same thing. oldvroad, i am sorry about that.

So very sorry to hear that sad news, oldbroad, and I send special

Thank you all for your kind words and hugs. They mean a lot coming from people who know the feeling as all of you do.

As Ana said about our weather, it went from cold to hot - too hot for me. I did open some windows yesterday but today the air got turned on.

Yeah, I turned the AC on today too. I hate to turn it on so early, but it was really hot and we were working in the gardens all day.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room.

Just time for coffee this morning. I'm off to do end-of-the-school-year tours at Longmeadow this morning. And tommorow and Friday and an all-day Wagon Day Saturday! Got 52 tomato plants and 34 pepper plants in yesterday and plan on getting in another 57 tomato plants today. HOT out there again!

same thing.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Repotting Orchids in the greenhouse today.

I'm excited! The Longmeadow Education Director messaged me and I am off the hook for the tours today! I did get another 57 tomatoes planted yesterday in this 92° heat. I'm slow and take a lot of breaks, but I got it done! So, that leaves me with today to go shopping for plants for my big pots - I LOVE plant shopping!!

Have a good day, everyone!

I'm not planting anything this year and have given the use of our greenhouse to our neighbours for the summer. I'm doing enough caregiving right now that I can't cope with the garden.

The SU is in the hospital right now having his pain meds tweaked because they weren't giving him enough relief. It's frustrating, because the chemo has worked to stop the cancer growth, but for some reason the pain persists. There's no homecoming date set yet, so I've had time to do a few things around the house, making piles of stuff we haven't used for years and getting it to one of the charities here in town.

I'm just finishing up a nice coffee and then I'll cruise on over to the hospital, with a pit stop for jelly doughnuts along the way.

My hubby has hit a wall with pain management. He has applied for a medical marijuana card. He's tried some of the gummies and they are doing more for his pain and insomnia that any of the other oral opioid type meds.

Drac, I'm glad he has found some relief! Wish Tennessee would legalize it. It also helps with seizers many have families have left here to help their kids...

I've read those stories, Winfrey. Also military people who are unable to get it for PTSD are leaving. Missouri is as backwards a state as you can get, but we did at least get medical marijuana passed. A very good friend's son has such severe PTSD after being captured by ISIS when he was in the service that he is considering moving back here to be able to access medical marujuana.

same thing. yesterday we made spaghetti.
