I drop by every day, I just don't always have something to say.
Cindy has been busy.
Good morning, Voltmaniacs.
Fall is in the air. Seems like the long hot summer is coming to an end. The garden is pretty much done. The weather peeps are saying it could get below 40 degrees tonight. I need to protect the tomato plant overnight.

Penny is having a great day. She got a new toy that she is playing with right now. She had dog food with rice and venison for breakfast. It is nice to see Penny spending quality time. She does rest more than she used to but she is having happiness still.
I just want to make sure that everyone knows that Penny is being well loved and well cared for. She is not suffering nor will we allow for her to suffer. We have pain meds and a good vet to help us keep her happy.

moanin', Voltinians. (I invented that word and will spell it my way, LOL)
Lizzy, glad to hear Penny is still having fun and enjoying herself. I think we all know you will take really extra, special, good, care of her and always have.
The change in seasons is being felt here, too. 50 again this morning, but back into the 80's already. Heck, I may need to turn the AC back on later. When I mowed the other day I was already mowing leaves and can see them slowly drifting down every now and then. The trees are still, generally, green but change is in the air. The tomatoes keep putting out fruit, the cukes are basically done, the green beans never seem to stop until it gets really cold at night and the watermelon leave have all curled up but the vines are still green and feeding the dozen or so melons that are left out there.

I cannot like your post, Lizzie. I am so sorry to hear Penny has cancer. My thoughts and prayers and vibes of comfort and healing are being sent your way.
So yeah I haven't been on much lately... too much going on around here. I finally got all my pc parts and man is this machine awesome.
We had to fill out a warrant for the neighbors. Fiance's cousin (was raised as brother and sister) started her crap and verbally and physically assaulted (police used the term 'harassed') fiance. Her piece of crap husband started the whole mess. He also verbally assaulted fiance so they both got arrested. The really sad part is they stopped fiance's 16 year old nephew from visiting us. The Nephew only had one good thing in his life (fiance) as his older brother (who fiance had the altercation with last year) and parents are all on hard drugs. Yeah so there is a restraining order on them and the literally live like 20 feet away. Ugh.... anyone got a spare rock for me to live under?

Can't like that one, Celti.
Wow, Celti, that's a lot of drama.
I keep telling Hubby to never get into it with the neighbors since these feuds last a long time. In your case, it is family, so that really sucks.
We actually have pretty nice neighbors, thank goodness.

I can't like that one either Celti, sorry you have to endure that kind of situation.
Morning Volties! Sandy, did you see that a new Jungle Book movie is coming out this winter?

That is one epic Jungle Book movie!
Maybe your students would want to see that after hearing some of the book, SandySu.

That does look like a great movie. I bet the kids would like it, if it comes to a theater in Ithaca. I'll keep my eye out for it. I bet the kids have never been to a movie in a theater.
The girl is still plugging away at chapter 3. And, though it's difficult reading, she still wants to read more.
The boy is struggling with the first Harry Potter book, and he is into reading that, too. I'm glad they have found books they really want to read.
Meanwhile, slowly but surely, their little brother is learning English. He says a few complete sentences, but he's not really fluent yet.
And the new girl struggled with an Amelia Bedelia book she had from school. I think it's too advanced for her, and most of the humor goes over her head till I explain it, but she wants to read it, so I won't argue.

I think you should put them under a rock, Celti. Just sad.
Good morning, Voltmaniacs.
Lunch was a good time yesterday. We laughed our butts off.
I'm thinking about getting Nevada a new home. I like Nevada but he just isn't working out for me driving him. He was pretty much a total butthead when I took him out to the round pen yesterday. I don't picture getting him into the cart. Maybe it is time to let it go and look for a nice horse that would be easier to handle.

More bad news, Volties.
I've kept in touch with First Officer the whole time since he showed up here on email. I just got an email from his SO asking me to give her a call, I knew it wasn't good news. He passed away on Wednesday. I'll miss him.

So sad, Awsum, I never really got to know him, but sorry to know about his passing. He sure was a firecracker! Thanks for letting us know.

Hello Everyone,
Just a note to let you know I'm still around and kickin'. Sorry to hear about First Officer. And, I'm also sorry to read about Penny, Lizzie.
Don't worry about me, folks. There are times when my symptoms are firing up, and I just don't feel at all sociable. Basically, I crawl under that rock that Celti is looking for. Better days ahead ...
I'd better hope that today is one of them because I'm going to be leaving for the MS Walk in about an hour. I may wobble rather than walk, but I'll get 'er done!! I'm determined.
Good news from my home front: My son just got a new job. His old job was good, but he was recruited to a job that is doing the same thing with less utilities to deal with. It's salary WITH overtime! Best of all, it will pay about $7,000 more than what he's making now. He starts on Tuesday when he'll be getting his company Jeep, laptop, tablet and I-phone. YAY!
I may lay low sometimes, but I'm still here.
