Finally...5/27/2012



Good Afternoon Friends,

I had trouble connecting with the Internet today.  I was all frustrated decided to try calling my provider (AT&T), got help without talking to a real person!!!!  Anyway, I so seldom have trouble that I forgot to turn off the modem which I did & just for extra measure I also shut down my power strip & Wala!!!  It finally connected.  Have no idea why that was happening as everything was fine when I turned it off yesterday.  I guess stuff like this keeps life interesting!  I could really do without that type of interesting.

The picture is just because there is nothing as fine as the sight of our American flag blowing in the breeze & because it is Memorial Day weekend.

Trudy, I am so sorry to hear the on going saga & mega problem with you A/C.  I am glad to hear that the TS Beryl is not hitting your area.  We could use rain here also but it is not likely at this point in time!  That said Mother Nature has surprised us before with late spring storms!  Love what you did for your grandson's birthday.  Great idea.  You are very clever.  How neat that they gave you "Mini Cooper goodies" for him.  I'm sure he will be happy!  Not to mention, big boobies!!!  I laughed out loud at that one!  Grandkids are the best!  By the way, so happy you could bookmark us & keep coming back!  Yea!

Mary, have fun at the BBQ.  Sounds like your dinner at Outback was win win!  I sooo enjoy someone else cooking & cleaning.  My daughter in Eugene is an excellent cook.  I get spoiled when I am there because then I have to come back home to eat my own cooking.  Now that she is working full time she doesn't do some of the things she use to as there just isn't enough time.  I imagine they will BBQ when I am there in June.  Yum!!

Amanda, love the car pictures.  The last couple of times I got together with my brother we went to a car show & then another time to the "classic tooling town"!!  That was so fun seeing all those really cool cars.  I think I have some on my digital.  If so I will share some with you.  Although they were in motion so the shots are not as good as when they are just sitting.    Glad your team won!  I don't follow baseball but since I live where I do we hear about the Giant's & the A's!

I watched the ending of the Indy 500.  I think when I turned it on they had about 32 laps to go.  There were a couple of crashes but the drivers managed not to get any other cars involved.  That must just be such a downer for the driver, the team, owners everyone when someone ends their race that way.  Wish I had just half of what it costs to have a car in the Indy 500!  I'd be uber wealthy!  Then I could help Trudy.

This should catch me up for now.  Lets go back to the Grand Canyon!  Great place to be anytime.  Trudy, Mary I would also go back in a heart beat!  Maybe I will someday.  I really have itchy feet as last year I had that trip to look forward to & this year just Oregon.  I'm not knocking that just wish I had something to perk me up a bit in the travel department!!!  Remember I love rocks, rock formations!!!  The Grand Canyon was such an interesting place.  Just look at all those layers & colors.  Awesome!!



Happy reading, Have fun the rest of the weekend,
Donna M
