  1. Worried.. don't know if you got my IM's /e-mails .
    Did't know if Nana had a relapse / Brian's cold got worse or your foot / hand was worse.

    Did I do anything to offend you ?
    I can log on to yahoo but can't access the IM , I sent you an e-mail that I would be here.

  2. I am on IM at present. I have sent you at least two messages on IM and an Email in reply to yours. Where are you now??

  3. Well I will just tell you about my day .
    Taken my monkeys to the private pool at the hotel, Jonny has learned to swim when school was out, Man loves the water , he took to the water like a duck . They have a kiddie pool and it's much better than the public pools.
    We are under a heat warning for the next few days . how is your weather ?

  6. Our weather is damn hot but it is perfect right now. We have been sitting outside on the swing.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Glad the kids like the water.

    ReplyDelete
  8. You see me ...I was worried , I didn't know what happen .
    How is Nana /Rock ? you.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I think the IM isn't going to come back on for us. I have noticed in the last several months that a lot of the American programs I have used for years to get music and videos from is no longer available in Canada. They seem to be separating the programming of the two countries and I believe that is the problem we are facing.

  10. I called you this evening , maybe that where you was outside .

    Dale says as soon as he get a chance he will fix it for me , he said it may be just a glinch , he said he's had problems lately with his IM.

    ReplyDelete
  11. However, I should be able to send you an email. Maybe I didn't push send. I will check on that. Although I don't think I am that forgetful yet.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I hope I am wrong and it is easy to fix. I can't fix it from here because my computer says it is working fine.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I remember the music..
    We could still get it ... you couldn't so we just deleted it .

    What do you suggest...
    another blog just for talking ?

    ReplyDelete
  14. I am very sorry to have missed your phone call. I like to hear your voice and crazy accent.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I just chec ked my e-mail and I got it ...that's something I always do , but I did't this time .

  16. I will be calling you soon ...OKAY
    I didn't kn ow when you would be busy.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Nana is doing okay. She is wearing the Lifeline necklace now. And they have installed a lock box outside so that the rescue and para medics can get in.
    Tomorrow morning we have an occupational therapist coming over to see Nana. I haven't a clue what he is going to do. The hospital decided to send him. Nana will get rid of him with a few nasty words. She is an expert at that. I think they tell old people how to fill their days weavung baskets and stuff.
    I can't wait to see what Nana says to him....HA!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Dale said he didn't think it was anything wrong at your end because he saw where I was invited and he saw where I accepted , he says he lost a lot of contacts in Canada.

    ReplyDelete
  19. As I believe I said in my email, I think the personal blog is a great idea and it is very unlikely that it will let us down. It is s safe medium to chat in even if it is a bit slow,

    ReplyDelete
  20. [giggles] All older people don't weave baskets or sit in a corner looking out the window . I want to know what Nana says ...please tell me Hahaa
    Why didn't they send her a woman , they are just as good ..Nana is not going to let that fool fumble with her HA !

    ReplyDelete
  21. I think so too ,we can put a picture or something .
    Maybe IM may get fixed ...who knows.
    What the name ..
    Partners in Crime PIC's or what.

    ReplyDelete
  22. What you think about the bears in the side bar on SH's ?

    ReplyDelete
  23. That is a great choice of a name. I like it. Put any picture you like on it and we will use it just for our own enjoyment. If we can talk on IM, great. If it goes off suddenly we should go straight to the privat blog for our backup.Or if we want to have a three way conversation with someone. We can give out passwords to a few select people.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I will put the bears on SH and on Maxy too.

    ReplyDelete
  25. How is your foot, didn't walk on it to much Saturday.

    I am glad you got the Life Alert necklace for Nana becuse it will always be with her ...better than the phone .
    We got Dad one about a year ago and it came in handy when he got woozy and lost his bearing .

    ReplyDelete
  26. This is great. Now I have a place to put my REALLY down and dirty jokes.

    ReplyDelete
  27. In Canada it is called Lifeline. I think it is an imitation of the American Life Alert. It has all the same options, including an automatic alarm when the device senses a fall.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I liked the idea of the private blog because we may forget to delete a comment .

    I made the crunch cake , I baked it in a loaf pan , I didn't have time to make the icing and the ready made is too sweet and have two many chemicals ..it was really good.

    ReplyDelete
  29. You can also try anything you you want to do. Things you want to keep in drafts .

    ReplyDelete
  30. I loved the light summer desserts you put on Maxy and they look so pretty too.

    ReplyDelete
  31. It is the same , just different companies and countries. Haha

    ReplyDelete
  32. The crunch cake needs the icing to really be good but I totally agree with you about the store bought icing. It doesn;t taste so good either

    ReplyDelete
  33. HA ! you told me too you are bossy or did you not know it ?
    Before I forget .

    ReplyDelete
  34. Did you see the comments on SH's with Vixen ... she is quite respectfull.I told her to let me know what she thinks.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I am making another one tomorrow and making the icing , they are licking their lips.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Sweetie , like you I really feel sorry for Vixen she always comment in the mornings.
    Do you think she is seeking help from us ...I think we are the only people she trusts.
    Tell me what you think?

    ReplyDelete
  37. Just what I thought {giggles] you didn't know it Haha

    ReplyDelete
  38. How did you like the storms on Saturn and the frozen river with the bubbles in Canada.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I have seen some of her comments on SH. That seems to be her favorite blog of all three.I didn't see any new ones yesterday. Thanks for putting the last two posts on FTBB. Both are very interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Are you still one-handed ??

    ReplyDelete
  41. Samantha sent me 59 pictures of Brown Baby yesterday. Overkill or what??

    ReplyDelete
  42. My hand is fine now. it will take a while for the black marks and the dents to grow out.

    ReplyDelete
  43. One nail was kinda ripped out at the bottom. It seems to be growing back now so maybe I won't lose it after all.

    ReplyDelete
  44. The comment is on the post Octoman had a fight . That's what had me worried , I thought you had to take Nana to the hosiptal... I was scared.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Samantha is so proud of her baby , no it's not over kill ...what Brian think about Brown baby ?

    ReplyDelete
  46. I bet he is really a big baby now , premmies got fast .

    ReplyDelete
  47. Brian never mentions that baby. He feels no connection to it. He does not like the papa at all.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I hope Samantha don't have another baby soon , just enjoy Brown Baby [little Clinton]

    ReplyDelete
  49. That boy is huge. A big fat happy baby. Turns out Sam is a great mom.She was always kind of a misfit in the family. She has serious ADT and dyslexia and couldn't stay in school. She also had a hearing problem which went undetected for years so she could not perform well at school and she always seemed to ignore people. I guess she didn't hear them.
    She is okay now and seems to have outgrown some of her problems and she has had her ears fixed, that helps. Bur she is still an oddball and loner like her dad.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I understand how Brian feels .
    Brian did let you buy out the store in baby clothes/ accessories that helped her .

    ReplyDelete
  51. I have a feeling she will have another baby in a year or two. The father has a son with another girl. He has no plans to marry either of them.At least,so far, unless someone goes down there with a shotgun.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Sam may not had ADT , it may because she couldn't hear . Glad she is a good mama . I want another baby .

    ReplyDelete
  53. Quinton sure was the most well dressed baby on his block for the first five or six months. He is eight months old now.

    ReplyDelete
  54. No shot gun , he is not worth it, he may leave and Sam find a good man, she is young and he is probably the first to pay attention to her.

    ReplyDelete
  55. You just don't know when to quit. Four is plenty. Don't spread yourself too thin. Then none of them get enough of you.

    But I sure understand your feelings. When I see a baby,I want another one too.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Time flys ... He can still wear most of the clothes , a lot of 6-month baby clotes will fit a 1-year-old.

    ReplyDelete
  57. [giggles] If I could have another baby , I think my monkeys would do it like Kim did the little girl , put it in a closet with a gag on . Haha.. I will just hug the ones here they seem to be popping them out all over the place.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I just remembered, Sam had ADHD. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. She couldn't focus her attention and she never sat still or slept, even as a baby.

    ReplyDelete
  59. My baby now is getting my Bears /Craft store up and running .

    ReplyDelete
  60. Just imagine how antsy and unsettled she must have felt all the time. I felt sorry for her but she drove everyone crazy.

    ReplyDelete
  61. That craft store is going to acquire a life of it's own. It will grow to be such a big thing. And very profitable too. I just know it will be popular with people.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Do Sam seem to set still now si nce she had the baby?

    I asked my monkeys if they wanted a baby and they all started laughing and said ...Mama , Man would try to flush the baby down the toliet Hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  63. I found a nifty idea on how to make diaper bags and put it on Maxy. A good seamstress could fancy them up a bit more.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Emma Waton of Harry Potter is on Dave .

    ReplyDelete
  65. Sam is definitely more settled now.
    Man would flush that baby and you know it. He is very possessive of you.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Forgot to tell you , Hattie brought one by here today and she said it was real easy , she bought a couple of bags from the thrift store , I have some bags and called around the compound to see if they had any .

    ReplyDelete
  67. Getting back to Vixen. Yes she is seeking friendship and support from us. She is on the run again and all alone. And I do feel sorry for her.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I'm glad one of your girls made one. They are so easy to make and attach right to your purse.You could line them or add other features to them.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I know I could not handle another baby .

    People have become so corrupt now , it's hard to get a non-profit org. They are making everything you put out there for them and they are selling them and taking orders .
    Lady Gaga is being sused because they say she is not doing right by the Japan earthquake braclets .

    ReplyDelete
  70. I hope Gaga is not really trying to profit from that disaster. How awful.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I think about her quite often , if not for her blog you /I probably never met .
    I do feel sorry for her and I would like to know about what she has been doing , she know we know .

    ReplyDelete
  72. If we go private , they would have to sign up to be invited like they do on DODO's site.

    ReplyDelete
  73. I still don't believe we should encourage her friendship or ask about her life. She will just lie any way. She knows we know about her. I think when she first arrived back she thought we still didn't know where she had been or who she was. She always thought we were rather dumb.

    ReplyDelete
  74. I don't know what Gaga is doing , but she was selling the bracklets , I did a post about it, a law firm was using her , she increased the price ... It's harder now to get a Org. because people is so evil . Gil told me to be patience , it all will work out and I am selling the crafts . I rented a spot at a flea market and the 3 older people is working in it , they are on a fixed income , so it helps everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  75. I agree with you 150% let sleeping dogs lie . she may think we are still dumb , I wouldn't ivite her to join our private party.

    ReplyDelete
  76. How are the crafts selling at the flea market?

    ReplyDelete
  77. I don't see any harm in treating Heidi politely when she comments though. Her comments are very polite. And her English is impeccable.

    ReplyDelete
  78. They are selling really well, the birdhouses /puppies /baby quilts and they take orders for the larger items .. like the garage hangers , they are staying busy , they make all the crafts you put on here . We make a nice profit .

    ReplyDelete
  79. I treat Vixen nice .. she is not pushy , now her blog is another thing , she spells as bad as I do sometime .

    ReplyDelete
  80. I went to the Octomom post. You had quite a dialogue going there. She is sticking to the subject of the post...very good.

    ReplyDelete
  81. What makes it nice is most of them has jobs or homemakers. The sly-foxes as Dad calls them is still there and follows Mac around like a little puppy.

    ReplyDelete
  82. As long as she do that I will answer her comments , if not I will not open my mouth HA!

    ReplyDelete
  83. Do the sly foxes do any work for the club like make crafts??

    ReplyDelete
  84. I am going to see if I can get 'Partners in Crime' tomorrow OKAY

    ReplyDelete
  85. It is so good to know that you are making a profit from the crafts. I am proud of you.

    ReplyDelete
  86. No they just come to the meeting .They say they are not handy in crafts .
    Dad said they will be handy in jail because they will have to sleep in their clothes Haha

    ReplyDelete
  87. Brian just wandered through here looking for his cough syrup. Had to give him some, big baby.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Got to help feed / save our bears , the fee for the spot is cheap ..$100. a month , I think they clears about $2 to $300.00 a week after the salaries are paid .

    ReplyDelete
  89. Well, I reckon I should write something and hit the sheets.It is not too hot to sleep. We don't have tp crank up the air conditioning.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Shall we meet here tomorrow night or will we have a new blog by then??

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  92. Yes lets meet here tomorrow , I hope we have the new blog ,if so we will meet there.. I will try when we log off and if you get it I can finish it ..

    ReplyDelete
  93. To be on the safe side we will meet here tomorrow OkAY.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I haven't had a jiggle dance in a very long time. It is so sad. It never failed to make me laugh. He has changed, my poor man. But he is tough. He went for a CT scan today. They wanted to know if the growths in his lungs had grown and if the kidney cancer had spread anywhere else. We won't find out until the twent-first.

    ReplyDelete
  95. It has got quite late and you need to rest .Maybe I will do better this time hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  96. You know we are sendin g you / Brian great vibes , I just marked the 21st down in my note book .
