CHIT CHAT in VOLTVILLE

[JoAnnW]

Yep. If it's bad news, they hurry to let you know, dontcha know?
I believe I'll have one of the caramelized apple rolls; I'm going to indulge myself, since I'm home with a really nasty cold. After working with it for 3 days, I'm going to see just how much I can sleep today.
Hope you get some good news JoAnn.

If you have any available, fix a cup of ginger tea with honey. Hope you feel better soon.

 

[JoAnnW]

Boy! I'm back-reading now but for the record.. I'm "liking" what I've read so far.

Also, a big congratulations to Shay for being a winner in the Bmore Vapers contest

 

[Renolizzie]

Poor Catlady, get well soon!!

Thanks for the coffee Joanne. Nice to see you back in form. I'll take the carmelized rolls. Yummy.

BeckyBlue - So glad you made your purchase. The real winner here is your coworker.

Congrats, again, Deb for your win

Here is one of my projects.



Daffodils are blooming



Cherry tree is blooming



The weather is gorgeous so working on the yard is my biggest project. Hubby says he'll help me this weekend with yard clean up. Hubby is going to help me get more rocks for my project when he gets home from work.

Thanking everyone for the wonderful computer breakfast and firearms advice.

I hate to seem like I am bragging, (but I am) - My oldest grandson is a GEEK like me. -

He is building his own very powerful gaming computer, and I mean "powerful", this thing has all of the top components we could find. At 13, he is a top student, science and math wiz and is quickly becoming a true computer geek like me. I am so proud of him. Yes, that is long, long hair on him. I convinced my daughter to let his hair grow many years ago, and since my wife won't let me grow mine long with a pony tail, I am living vicariously through my grandson.

Wow Lizzy... good job(s)! Looks great! All of that hard work is really paying off.

 

[JoAnnW]

Brag away Wabbit!! You have every reason to be a proud grandpa!

I hope you get over your cold quickly. Sleep is really a good way to fight off a cold.

Wow, Lizzie, what you did with those rocks is really beautiful. From that little glimpse, it looks like you have a really lovely place.

Have you started any work with Wiseguy in the round pen yet, or are the rocks taking precedence at the moment?

You are right to be proud of him. Why is your wife against you having long hair? Bill's hair is long and in a ponytail, and I really don't mind. Since I got my haircut some months ago, now Bill's hair is longer than mine. One thing I do notice is that long hair gets in the rugs and I have to keep cleaning it off the brushes of the vacuum and cleaning it out of the tub drain. I guess, though, that's not enough to make your wife not to let you have long hair. It must be more of a style thing.

Thanks for the compliment on the rock project guys.

Last year I built that boardwalk all by my self. The year before that I got all the white fencing in trade. My neighbor was losing her house and wanted me to watch her animals. In return, I disassembled the white vinyl fence, Hubby drove over with me and cut the vinyl fence posts off, we loaded it up and brought it home. I put 2x4 stubbies into the fence post since vinyl fencing is hollow, dug holes and I had a full sized fence. I think it really sets the house off nicely.

For two years I had flowers growing where the rocks are using sprinklers but I am tired of having too much to do so I got this idea. No sprinklers, just drippers. I can still have flowers, they are just in the barrels. Later in the year you will be able to see all the nice grasses and penstemmons that are sprinkled into the front bed in the rock area

I have had the little goober out to the round pen. I turn him out and he rolls and nibbles what little grass is out there. He enjoys having a change of scenery. Then I run him around the pen in both directions a few times and we are done

How cool is that, Wabbit!!!!! Wonderful to be living vicariously through your grandkid. Gosh, he sounds really smart. Brag on.

Congrats Becky and Deb on winning the contest!

Becky, although Debra says if she could go back in time she'd just get Spinners and T3s it might be a better idea to stick to the 65mm or 78mm cig-a-like batteries to begin with. They emulate a tobacco cigarette much more closely and can make it easier to get off of tobacco as a result. I still use 78mm batteries with CE3s even though I have a bunch of X2s and two different, much larger, so called "mods". The problem is it takes a hand to use the bigger stuff, but the cig-a-likes can be used exactly like a cigarette. Talk with your friend to try to get an idea. Cudos to you for using your winnings to help someone get off of tobacco.

Debra, the nicotine would be very effective, but it would be a shame to waste it if you have that knife, think soprano!

awsum I take your point on smaller batts...but I was so glad when my x2 first arrived...those 65 n 78s drove me batty!!!...ok if your a light vaper...Not me....I had 3 adapters on charge all day long...just to get through...I would pop a 65 in 30 mins or less...lol....and don't worry I wont waste no nicotine...it was just a pun back at kon....for the acid pistol.....you knew that....wink!! wink!!

Glad it's cooled off for you, Debra. I'm wishing it would warm up here! Temps were at 27, about -2 or -3 C. Too cool for my tastes this time of year.

 

[JoAnnW]

This transition into spring is a trip! One day in the 70s, today in the 30s and COLD!!!

I'm glad you are happy for the colder temps Deb, as for me, the warmer the better. I can't wait for the days of Tshirts and jeans only..
