    Morning. Seems a little cooler this morning. Or was I dreaming?

  2. Airwolf says:

    Morning friends. Gotta cut three lawns up at the farm today. I have some help. My son Signalman is gonna help. Maybe he feels sorry for me heh!!

  3. LegalSec says:

    I hope we’ll have a little breeze blowing through for the picnic! Have a great weekend everyone!

  4. dhcoop says:

    Mornin again! Yes, lil sis, you must be dreaming!!

    It’s HOT!

    In honor of National Donut Day, I picked up a 6 pack of Krispy Kremes at McDades. :)

  6. Molly says:

    National Donut Day? I didn’t know. I need to do something about celebrating that!

    Kiddo and Hubby have decided we need another pup NOW. I think they are nuts (and am really surprised at Hubby…he’s taken the loss of Roller Dog so hard that I didn’t think he would want to go through it all again). I was looking forward to a quiet, peaceful, clean house for a while. (Well…as clean as it can be with a teenager in the house!) They got online to check out shelters and found a dog they want to look at in Meridian. Looks like we’ll be making a road trip tomorrow.

      Molly, I wasn’t a big proponent of getting a replacement dog right away after losing one until Friend lost Jessie. I really think if he hadn’t gotten Junior right away, the loss would have been too much for him to bear. Junior has become a very special member of the family. Not to say Friend doesn’t still miss Jessie, but Junior has softened the blow quite a bit. So, I say if Hubby wants a new pup, go for it!

      New life does take the sting of death away. I promise. You can’t replace the ones you dearly love in your heart, but having someone else to pour your love into does help with those lonely hours of tears.

  7. Barb says:

    Good morning! Back to work for me today!!

    Continued good thoughts for PM and PD.

    Everyone have a great day!!

  8. OldBopper says:

    Grass is cut. Wish the shrubs were clipped and the weed eating was done.

    Molly, better call and make sure that puppy is still there before heading out to Meridian.

    Talk about disappointment, found out last night that the conversion bracket I had to get to make the light bar work with the windshield is only for Hondas. Soooo, no light bar.

    Anybody want to buy a used Memphis Fats windshield with quick release? I have it on the bike in the 17″ version and the plastic for the 22 inch version. They both use the same mounting hardware.

    I’ve looked all over the web and can’t find a light bar to go with a Memphis Fats windshield. I really want a light bar as a safety feature and am willing to get a different brand windshield.

    morning gang! busy friday… hope all have a good day!

    prayers still for PM and PD.

  11. cardinallady says:

    Morning! It is so hot down here my chickens are setting on the nest early in the morning to keep from laying boiled eggs. I am soooooo grateful for all my shade trees. I think of the people in the towns that have lost all their trees due to tornadoes and just can’t imagine how hot they must be today.

  12. cardinallady says:

    PS. Just to let you know, I am bringing those same lemon marinated vegetables that I usually do to the picnic. Yall seem to like them okay.

  13. blues4you says:

    Good morning.

    Prayers for PM & PD.

    OB, next time you ride up my way, please give me a call. I live about 300yds from the boat ramp.

    I’m traveling to Laurel in a feww minutes to check out new job location.

    Y’all be good.

  14. Legal Eagle says:

    I’m glad your son got a job at that tony bait shop, JB!

    Well, it turns out that I have a classmate who lives right up the road from me. I went by there yesterday after the bridge game and before long there were 6 of us, some I hadn’t seen since graduation or not long after. It’s amazing what you can find out about what was going on around you 50 years later.

  15. Molly says:

    OB, I have talked to the person at the shelter. That dog is available, along with his brother. I doubt we will get both, but she’s holding both for us to look at tomorrow. They are so cute! I hope we are ready to have another baby in the house. I told Kiddo to get all small items out of puppy reach. We’re not used to have a mobile dog in the house any more.

  16. Airwolf says:

    Well eight acres of grass mowed. Better yet our hay is cut and drying. Fresh cut hay sure smells sweet. I’m trying to get cool again, can’t get enough cold water!

  17. OldBopper says:

    My radiator fan on my motorcycle kicked on while sitting at the Crossgates stop light for the third time. At first I didn’t recognize the sound. I’ve never heard it before.

    Folks, you can go 70 mph with the top down, the windows down, and the floor air vents open and it’s still hot. That’s what it’s like on a motorcycle.

  18. msblondie says:

    yesterday afternoon i had the top down and the a/c on. cause it was so hot.

  19. parrotmom says:

    sorry so late again. the mri was normal no tissue tears means no surgery. still no doc show to confirm a move out of icu. also computer svc with laptop has 3 wireless svcs available all need passwords the nurses know that I sjould be gettinn a connection but so far no help.

  20. parrotmom says:

    thanks for all the continued prayers for us.

  21. parrotmom says:

    thanks for all the contnued prayers. I hope you all have a wonderful cool weekend planned.

  22. Mrs. H says:

    Spent the morning at Lowes getting science equipment (corrugated hose) then the afternoon at church setting up the science lab. I confiscated a 3 tier rolling rack and filled it with all our “stuff.” That way the kids can be looking at it every day and wondering what it all does!

    PM, good luck with the wireless issue. I HATE HOSPITALS.

  23. dhcoop says:

    Evenin!

    Just heard a report that some storms are popping up. Hope one pops here. We need RAIN!

    PM, glad to hear no surgery!

  24. dhcoop says:

    I ate WAY too much watermelon today. Expect I’ll be paying for that this weekend. I picked up one when I bought the donuts this morning and it was really good for an early season melon. I did bring the hollowed half (with seeds and pulp) down to Gtown to put out for the crows. Sent the other half home with a co-worker to avoid the temptation to eat the whole thing. I decided to wait till morning to put it outside, since I figured the raccoons and possums would ravage it tonight. I’ll put it out first thing in the morning and then watch the show!

  25. Airwolf says:

    PM ask to see the patient advocate!

  26. cardinallady says:

    Blues, are you going to get to come to the picnic this year since you will be relatively close?

  27. parrotmom says:

    My lap tops were horrible now want even play at home they are supposed to be moving PD to a Telemetry unit (sp) step down. The Doctor was ticked that they did not get the brace that was perscribed and told to get it no matter what. I’ve got to be back by 9:00 pm.

  28. Barb says:

    Glad no surgery, PM. Continued prayers,
    Molly, good luck with the puppy or puppies!

  29. parrotmom says:

    hello I have to do this to update my page on the phone.

  30. parrotmom says:

    good luck Molly on your choice tomorrow!

    when I made it back before 9 PD is still in icu waiting on a bed, but he now is proudly wearing his new collar, navy and white. Dang my old leashes are maroon :)

    speaking of maroon, what about them Dawgs, MS State baseball team beating Southern?

  31. Legal Eagle says:

    It was great to see so many of my classmates! I hadn’t seen a lot of them in years and others since the 45th reunion. I figured the 50th would bring some who haven’t been to others. One of the guys lives on an island off the coast of Oregon and he’s probably the fartherest away. We are having the reunion at the Colonial Country Club and their air conditioner is the same one that was installed when the building was built in 1949. It was hot as hades upstairs. We are having the banquet downstairs tomorrow night and hopefully it will be cooler, but I doubt it. A lot of folks were leaving and if anyone is still there at 11:00 p.m., I would be surprized.

  32. parrotmom says:

    Thank you all for all the continued prayers.

    We received a nice snack basket from m work but how they could get 920 out of 102. they sent it to my home. I called a nieghbor and asked her to get it until I could get home. Good thing it had some chocolate in it.

  33. parrotmom says:

    LegalE so glad you had a wonderful time tonight and I hope tomorrow goes just as well.

  34. parrotmom says:

    my mind is still thinking hard to shut it down. Pd’s kids and grands made it up to see him. Visit went well, they will come back by before heading to the coast.

    dang the day nurse gave me a sheet and while gone the nite nurse took it away.

  35. parrotmom says:

    nite lite is on.

  36. OldBopper says:

    Been awake since 2:30 this morning. Nothing wrong, just couldn’t sleep. Updated my blog…twice. Let’s see, it’s officially 5:23 am. Hope everybody has a good Saturday.

    PM, loved the leash comment! Hope he continues to improve.

  37. OldBopper says:

    My blog in case you have nothing else to do. I originally started it using names of songs as entry titles. But when I was coming up, you could actually get six jukebox plays for a quarter. And how many of you have had a half dollar in your pocket lately?

  38. dhcoop says:

    Mornin!

    OB, I had trouble sleeping too. Not sure why.

    I just broke the watermelon up under the tree and am sitting here watching the crows gathering. I think I’m about to have a show!

  39. dhcoop says:

    Well, it’s been a disappointing show. I had one crow come and enjoy the melon, then he left and I fully expected him to bring all his friends after telling them how good it was. Didn’t happen. Maybe the squirrels will show up soon.

  40. Barb says:

    Morning everyone!

  41. Airwolf says:

    Morning, still hot;-}

  42. msblondie says:

    morning gang! I am up and about.. getting M ready to leave for Girl State here shortly. I am taking her and a friend down to USM for it. They will be in H’burg all week.

    everyone have a great day!

  43. dhcoop says:

    I’m about to head to CS to puppysit for a few hours. Friend needs to go take care of some stuff and G is out of town visiting grandbabes. Friend doesn’t want to leave the “babies” (Breezy and Junior) cooped up in the house all day. I wanted to work in the garden today anyway. I know it needs water. May wash my truck. May not.

    Big SHOUT OUT to Ace!!! Today is his 5th birthday!!! Happy Birthday little man! The MRBA have been with you since you were born!! Looking forward to seeing you at the Pick-a-nick!

  44. Legal Eagle says:

    Happy Birthday, Ace! You good looking little man. I hope to see you at the pick-a-nick too.

    Day2 of the 50 years later reunion begins.
