CHIT CHAT in VOLTVILLE

Not open for further replies.
Probably just off feeding it's little ones, pretty soon it will be mice. Snakes are one of the coolest pets you can have, they don't bark or leave a mess for you to clean up and if you hang a sign on your door that you have pet Snakes roaming your house you won't have a problem with burglars. The only Snakes I am worried about are all the rattle snakes that live around my property. Not so much worried as cautious, I still think they are cool but some of the big ones can kill you because it takes longer to get to the hospital than you have time too once they bite you. Thankfully they let you know when you are getting to close. I can't wait to hear the end of the mouse saga. With the weather cooling off chances are you will see more and more as they look for a warm place to spend the winter. :D
I get the "HeeBeeGeeBee's" just hearing the word 'Snake". Ugg! Chills are fightin' for parkin' spots just typin' this!
Negative experience in grade school - principal had bunch one spring. Out at recess the boys thot it would be fun to drop them down the back of our dresses. I'm only happy seeing them when I'm on the lawn mower!
Going back the mice. Just thrilled to hear from the realtor they show'd our place last night. Seems there were 2 smelly deads in kitchen sink! Fortunately being country people they understood it's fall harvest pushin' them out and acknowledged a dog and a couple cats would take care of that! Meet w/ realtor today. They are tryin to touch base w/ the guy that backed-out thinkin' he's just been so over worked that he 'gave up' for now. Will be interesting. Several offers for Contract for Deed - seems divorce has really done a number on so many in the credit department. Sad when families fall apart any way.

Hi Reptilr and the rest of my Voltie friends. Miss chatting with you guys as well but after two negative experiences with the company and some less than stellar cs, one issue still not fully resolved, I no longer do business with them so in all fairness I don't post on their forum. Because of you guys and the way you feel about SI, as well as the unresolved issue being minor, I chose not to post in the negative review forum. Wish all of you and SI the best. I'll be reading and "liking" from time to time.

Wuzznt Me: so sorry you have had less than stellar experience. For me CS was THEEEE reason I WANT SI to be my one and only. Here's hopin' it gets resolved in such a grand manner they win you back!

I brought some coffee for lunch! Just pick your flavor / blend ... Love love love the Keurig! Everything else tastes burnt now!

Good Morning Volties!

What? No one made coffee? You're all fired! Well, I'll share mine, but it has a hint of cinnamon. Hope that'll do.


My bad, it won't happen again. I was in a hurry to run to the PO and pick up some mixing supplies the wimpy UPS guy won't bring up my driveway. Please step away from the shotgun! :blink:

Where ya been Raynes? You've been missed. It's good to see you back with us. :)

Pressing "What SHE said" button .......

Raynes: I think the Sultan IS doing a little better! Coat seems 'thicker' (hasn't cooled THAT much yet!)

On a much happier note tonight - while the one deal probably fell through ... there is another couple that saw our place and want it AND,
and, and they have a couple horses!!! So, we shall see what we shall see!

I hope everyone (at least northern'er) friends are enjoying nice fall weather! ( Tho it's been rather hazy today w/ all the harvest dust!)

Night all!

Greetings, fellow Volties! It's much too early here to start up the coffee, otherwise I would! ;)

I've been so proud of my hubby these past two weeks! He's really slowed down on using analogs and even quit for three days. For some reason he decided to buy a pack and admitted they don't taste as good to him! He even noticed a few other physical changes, such as his sinuses clearing up, in that short time! He told me not to worry, he was going to quit this time, because he's not just getting any pleasure out of it, anymore! Crossing my fingers that it works this time! He's trying to go cold turkey, because we just found out that his workplace doesn't consider the use of e-cigarettes, at least with nicotine, as being tobacco-free. *rolls eyes* He wants to be tobacco-free by the 12th of October to qualify for the insurance discounts. Which, because I need to be tobacco-free, means that I'm going to go to 0 mg. Shouldn't be too hard for me, as I've been doing 6 mg since I've started vaping. IDK if it's the nicotine or the actual vaping that I'm addicted to! It also helps to have something to fiddle (the e-cig) with when I'm stressed! LOL!

Classes start back up Monday and I've already saw my coursework, so I might not be around as much! I'll be thinking of you, all, and will miss you, though! :)

:thumbs: Sign that man up! There's always room in Voltville for another Voltie..

Tina, good luck with your studies, we will save your seat in your absence. Just make sure to pop in from time to time so we know how it's going. :D

Love the handle on that cup! Sure helps when an attitude adjustment is called for :)

We bought 50 of those for the Club House a few years back. Most of the guy's use them for other beverages but mine is just for my coffee. The handles are chrome plated steel so I guess in a pinch you could use it for other than it's intended purpose. Talk about coffee that packs a wallop...:shock:

I've missed you guys too !!! How is the exercise bike working out for you?

Well, it's not a bike - just the foot pedal assembly. I've put it in the knee hole of my desk so that I can pedal any time. When I first got it yesterday, I put in a half hour straight with no resistance. I'll boost up the resistance as I get stronger and rebuild atrophied muscle. Then I can hopefully get back to my HealthRider. Thanks for asking! :)
