Joey, so sorry you may be facing more surgery. :( (((hugs)))
I'd love to take a sick day, but I was off last Friday, for our long weekend at DH's parents. Well, we were only there Fri, and Sat., but driving

Oh Bobbi, good morning, and big hugs for you too!! :wub:
What a project!!
I've heard of the Blue Emu lotion, but hadn't heard any reviews. I might have to check that out as well! :thumbs:

Good morning Angel. :wub: Yea on the short day!! :banana: Have fun with Princess! :)

Hi and good morning @keepsmiling , forgive my bad manners earlier, I "liked" your post, but I guess it didn't "register". I guess I was in the morning daze with not enough coffee. ;)

...lurking from work. TGIF.

Seems we have a thunderstorm treat every day. It's been the last several anyway.
We went through that for awhile, then we had a break.
Judging from the forecast next week, that pattern must be coming back around.

I'm still on my first cup too.
What Sara said. Working them too hard. Sounds like inflammation. :(


Why can't it just always be beautiful outside. :lol:


Hiya Fran, how are things in the NE?


I was just reading on FB about Crusoe The Celebrity Dachshund. Guess he had to have (his first) two teeth pulled....gotta love a small breed. Was looking through the comments at all the "been there, done that" stories, and the pics of all the old doxies and various pups. Lots of old ones out there still chugging along. :)

Welp, I'm off to go eat and get ready for work.

So this is good news, all those old doxies, promising news for Rita ;) well when you ladies go searching for that island make sure it has beautiful weather year round. Lolz!

Good morning lurkers:wub::wub::wub: Thought I'd check in before I shower and go to bed.;) You stay safe in all that nasty weather today!:nun:
Dale, I've had pretty good luck with that blue emu lotion. It is amazing how much it helps with the sore hands.:2c:
I have 12 more days to get the rest of the pics and documents scanned. No idea how many more there are but am sure it is well over a thousand...:confused: On a good day I can identify, decipher, scan and label 200 pics or so, then nap for a few hours and upload those during the free period for our provider. Some place in the middle, I get online and answer the questions about who is this and how are we related again, how old/where was I when this pic was taken, etc. Then there is the, "you spelled this name wrong" or the "are you sure this is so and so?". I am to the point now I stopped being polite and tell them that is what the pic had on the back, that's all I can go on... I've only been in this family for 40 some years, I never even met your great great whoever! Bruce is very helpful until he forgets and starts reminiscing over the pics and telling me stories about them...o_O Oh well, this to shall pass and I am looking forward to lucky Friday the 13th!!!:D Ok, rant over! I'm off to shower and sleep!

Oh boy, Bobbi. You poor thing. I don't know that I would have been nice this long ;) I think it's really a neat thing that you are doing. I would love to have a compilation of all the family photos. Ours are scattered here and there :(

Seems we have a thunderstorm treat every day. It's been the last several anyway.

Yeppers, that's how it is here too. The clouds are so ominous every day and then a storm pops up. Blah!

Bwahahahaha that's funny.

The air is so thick and soupy, my clothes feel wet and my poor hair. All frizzy. Grr!! I'm ready for this day to be over!! Need wine, copious amounts of it. ;)

Yep, that's what I'm hoping for Rita. ;)
I thought that survival article was funny too!
It's really soupy out here too, spitting rain.

Ran by the Belleville Farmer's Market at lunch.
Got all sorts of produce, some sort of smoked specialty BACON, a loaf of wheat bread with oatmeal (grainy) crust, baked fresh from The Hill in St. Louis, and a HOMEMADE Choc/Caramel Turtle from a local candy shop out of Troy, IL. :drool:

Then a couple small pieces of Buffalo Chicken Bread from the Italian restaurant for lunch.
We'll snack on this all weekend too!
There is a Blue cheese dip that's not in the picture.

Oh yum, that looks good Lori...although you can keep the blue cheese dip. ;)

I was going to skip lunch and just leave at 2 today but the boy needed to borrow the car, so here I am...still leave at 3, so that's good...I'm trying to finagle it where I can ask for Monday off (have Tuesday off, but would be nice to add the extra day)...I managed to get my Monday payroll in and completed today...now just need to complete a few more things, and have the dang boss actually come back to the office so I can ask for the time off...keep fingers crossed that I can get her to agree.

Another surgery was considered but there was some hope it would not be necessary oh well :rolleyes:

    Good afternoon :)

    Walmart, the drug stores, pretty much any where you go will have it. It is almost $20 for a tube but only takes a tiny bit and doesn't leave a nasty smell or anything. To me it is well worth the relief it gives! Really, it only takes a very little bit so if you get it don't start with too much... like I did the first time!:rolleyes:
    I found it at Amazon but I'll look at Wal-Mart first tomorrow when I get groceries :thumb:

    Good morning lovely lurkers. :wub:

    Dale, hope the swelling goes down for you...sounds like maybe you do need to go ahead and take the 4th off so you can give them a rest for a bit. ;)
    So far you're the only one who thinks so :?:

    I knew it was going to be a problem so it is what it is :rolleyes:
    :( Sorry Joey :(

    Seems we have a thunderstorm treat every day. It's been the last several anyway.
    I'll take 'em!! :D

    Truth! :laugh:

    :yawn: :laugh::laugh:

    Same here, when I stepped out the door this morning you could actually feel the humidity pressing down on you! :eek:

    Gal, I'd put my shoes back on and go get those groceries TONIGHT. Tomorrow is the FIRST, and Saturday of the 4th of July weekend. ;) :2c:

    That's the way our humidity was this a.m.
    It absolutely POURED here, a couple times earlier.
    I looked on the map, it looked like you were going to get rain, but it also looked like it was breaking up and splitting off and going to miss you.

    It rained a little but not near enough ... still in the forecast though :thumb: Sun is shining full blast at the moment.
