The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original

So we are having a " fun" 4 th. hub is installing 2 faucets we bought 6 years ago. Boys are at the tent from 8 am today until 2 am. I'm just cleaning out some drawers/ cabinets. At least it's cool in the house.

I think chickens, raccoons , coyotes and hikers would melt here.

***HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL YOU YANKS!!***

And I'll throw this in, as many of you Yanks are indeed lookin' like this today......

[IrishHeart]

Thank you, Em!!

and yes, it is hot. Even the water in my pool is hot.

and ...I tried to cut and paste that pic, but I am a Techno doofus (which is why I rely on Jess and Peter for those graphics).

I went to the Dali museum when I was in FLA a few months ago...wow....and they claim he never did any drugs...okaaaaaaay.

Mark and I have the phlu of all things so we are having some soup--thank goodness for air conditioning

[mushroom]

So sorry about the phlu, Patti and Mark. Sending some chicken soup I made yesterday before all the ingredients expired... hope it gets there warm!

[jerseyangel]

Thanks Shroom:). It's going around-- several people we know either have it or have just gotten over it.

I'll keep an eye out for that soup

Happy 4th of July to all of you celebrating. Boy have I missed you all. After I took a fall Memorial Weekend I was fairly out of it and vision was off. I'm doing much better. Just have to have an MRI to see if there are any fractures. I didn't go to the ER because of all of my bruises (didn't want Superman questioned) and also after spending a week in the hospital in January I didn't want to take a chance that they'd admit me. Not too smart but what's done is done.Rob did keep waking me the first night because I'm sure I had a mild concussion.Just came back from a lovely neighborhood BBQ and I left earlier than Superman as we're leaving for NJ tomorrow and I still tire very easily. I have been keeping up with the posts and sending positive energy and healing hugs to all of you. Will try to be better about keeping up with you when we return.

Love,

Loey

[jerseyangel]

Hi Lowey:). Nice to see you! Good luck with the MRI and hold onto yer hat-- it's hot here in Jersey. 102 on Saturday...

[IrishHeart]

Oh and Happy Birfday PeOte!!! :D :D :D

Yes HBD, Peter! Last year, I told Peter that we celebrate his birthday with fireworks and wild celebrations down here in the US--

in his honor, every single year!!

Happy 4th all!!

We had a hot one here . . . Smackl is on the TKD demo team so he had to perform in the 4th of July parade here . . . two miles with constant demos along the route. Temps at parade time in the low 90's but high humidity. Lost two kids (had to ride in the support truck) along the way due to heat. Then Smackl had to work the booth at the festival from noon until 5:00 with a full demo performance at 1:30. . . and all these kids/staff are wearing their standard uniforms(lightweight and loose but long sleeves and pants). He was a trooper . . . I didn't hear him complain once. He also knows that he totally has the day off tomorrow. He can plant himself in front of the computer and shoot all the zombies he wants.

Good to see you Loey and take care of yerselfs, Patti and Mark . . . and Loey!

[jerseyangel]

Yea Smackl !! Hope he has a grand time tomorrow

Unwrapping my twisted ankle and removing blister bandage to take showers. Piece of advice for amateur hikers- If you think maybe you should stop for the day, you should stop for the day! Ow....

[VydorScope]

Just got back form the fireworks here in NJ... tomorrow have to hit the road home to an empty fridge... ah well at least is it gluten-free now

[curlyfries]

Loweeee!!!! I've been wondering how you've been doing! Was going to do a shout out for you but you beat me to it!

Patteigh....sucks about the phlu. You and Mark get better soon ♥

Well, we had originally planned an all day motorcycle ride (yes...we still ride) with friends to go down across the Ohio River, but it was just too dang hot. So we ended up having a bar-b-que.

Sounds nice--and much cooler

[JNBunnie1]

Thanks guys, is a lot better already. Stupid rocks...

[mushroom]

. Stupid rocks...

Them rocks will get ya! I once went hiking in a rocky national park (well, the trail wasn't rocky but there were rocks everywhere except the trail, and those rocks were all third rocks from the relentless SUN which held HEAT and we was gone most of the day. And I had a hat and two bottles of water, both of which I employed, but when I got back to the hotel for a nice cold amber one I was sick as a dog for two days (felt like sunstroke and heatstroke ) GAHHH. Avoided rocks ever since And sun too!!! for the most part.

{{{HUGS}}}} Loey!!

Sorry bunny ({{{HUGS}}} too)

YEAH! Lisa

"snort" Vscope

dat all?

Lovely 4th. Watched the fireworks from the boat - excellent view, and 'home' is 2 seconds away, down the ladder.

The bread turned out fabulous, and much easier to regulate consumption in 1 pound loaves. Even the Pirate thought it was good with home made butter.

Mulberry (the silkie) is broody again. She's managed to acquire 5 eggs which I've marked, and will leave under her (since I'd have to throw them away otherwise), and I'll check daily for new additions to limit her collection.

Play is done, auction is done, just sent in my little bit of work for the stat lab, forecast says 'no rain' - should be a fabulous weekend.
