Good morning Volties. We are having gorgeous weather here! Today is expected to reach 80!! Yay!!!

I heard from Tail... She's still cleaning up the mess, had window bars and a security system installed, locks changed on the house, garage and the Harley. They stole her extra sets of keys. Her neighbors saw the burglars and NO ONE called the police. One neighbor went as far as following the vehicle but didn't get the license plate number. Why bother if they didn't call the police at that time!

She will return to Voltville when she can but wants you all to know that she appreciates all of your concern and support during this very stressful time.

As for me... I'm feeling better now and will have my doctor's visit tomorrow to get the report.

Have a great day :)

Dang, in my neighborhood we've been known to call the cops on legitimate workers/movers just to be on the safe side.

Will keep Tail in my thoughts.

Same for my neighborhood. We even look out for each other if anyone will be going away on vacation... collecting their mail and packages so they don't pile up. Most of us have security systems too. Living in the city, we have to be extra vigilant.

Thanks for letting us know. I'm sending vibes to Tail. Also to you that the doctor's report is favorable.

hi joann..please tell tails..shes in my thoughts...and hope shes feeling better soon...hope your doctors report is good news joann

Thanks Deb. I'm praying for an all clear from my doctor.

It will be a long process for Tail but she's strong and will recover. Such a shame that law-abiding citizens have to deal with something like this... some jerks who think they have the right to take what honest people work hard for. Ok... rant over!

Oh my gosh Tail! I am so sorry that you are going through this! I hope they catch the losers that did this, makes me so angry! I'm really glad that Whisper is ok. Sending lots of good thoughts your way, I'm sure it will be a while before you can put this behind you and feel safe again. (((((Tail)))))

Glad you are feeling better JoAnn, sending good thoughts to you as well.

It's 43 here and we are expecting rain, things are starting to green up a bit, but it sure is taking a long time this year. Not complaining, it sure beats snow! Have a great day folks!

Heh, it's going to hit the high 70's possibly 80 here today and all I could think of when I saw that was I miss Michigan weather...

So you are the one that left and took the sunshine with you? It's so dim and gray, and the rain has started. Had to laugh JoAnn, 70's and 80's would be shorts and turning the air conditioner on! :laugh:

If I took all the sunshine with me I would gladly return it :) Although I am guessing it wasn't me since I left over 20 years ago. BTW, what part of MI are you in QRXT? I'm from the Greater Lansing area (I moved around a lot) originally and I really do miss MI but since my GF doesn't particularly like intense cold I don't see us moving there anytime soon.

That sounds like me and my hubby ;)

When I turn up the heat in the winter, he suffers. When he turns up the air condition in the summer, I suffer. We are such a mismatched pair. :laugh:

I'm about an hour east of Lansing, NW Oakland county, just barely. Whatever Lansing is getting, we pretty much get the same. You're from Michigan, you know we always measure distance in time! :laugh:

hehe, I still do that, people ask how far someplace is and I tell them how long to get there...annoys people a lot, makes me smile :)

Last place I lived in MI was Perry, NE of Lansing on 69 if memory serves me. Oakland county, that's up towards Milford (My uncle used to work in Milford)?

I'm near where the corners of Oakland, Livingston and Genesee counties meet. Milford is not too far away.

We're having warm weather, too. So far, it's in the high 60s and sunny, but later it's supposed to rain, and I think it might snow by the end of the week, so spring isn't really here, though it feels like it.

I just got back from the barn, grooming Penny, with lots of shedding hair on the floor at the end. I took a carrot, cut up in bite-size pieces, and each time before I'd give her a piece, I'd ask her if she wanted a carrot, and she'd nicker. Then I'd go get a carrot piece and give it to her. Who says horses don't understand what we say?

Meanwhile, here's a fun video of a horse and bull playing together. Look in the commentary if you want to see an exceptional performance by this horse. There's a link to another video. I posted it some time ago, but if you didn't see it, it's worth watching.
