always makes me wonder if I'm getting Alzheimers. I worry about it because my Mom had it. Then again, I'm so disorganized on a regular basis I shouldn't worry.. and this WAS a messed up week. I now have a lovely bruising going on all along the implant on the left knee.. but no pain thee, thank God

Frannie I was talking with my neighbour about this yesterday and she thinks it's just natural and happens to everyone.

She says as you get older, you rely more on mindless routine to do the things you've done thousands of times before (say like packing) and use your brain cells for the new stuff instead.
Hence it's not so easy to take yourself through the steps of - I locked the car door, opened the house door, put my keys...

- because you just do all that without paying any attention - hence finding it hard to be sure you did lock the car, or where on earth you put the keys down!

oh.... nice stuff Kijo! i love black and brown together

[Zoonie 0]

Oh and following that conversation, it made me laugh when IMOM stood in front of the fridge and said out loud 'right I've opened the fridge, now, why am I here?' rofl

Of course he had no idea why I found that so funny

[inu-kijo 0]

my grandma used to lose her phone EVERYDAY.
so we would always have to run around and listen while someone hits the paige button.

more times than many it would be in the fridge. so we learned to check there first.

[inu-kijo 0]

the pic is hard to see, but its like a maroon colour. : D

thanks, I think they are cute!

the box was a photo storage contatiner... that was just solid white, i got it at micheals for a dollar. the make your own mug as well. so 2 dollars worth of awesomeness there.

Jsut got the box to ship stuff in, but thought it would be cool to decorate, and now I really like them!
figured i would share.

[Frannie 0]

that might be Gill.. but it still bugs me. Going to go look in my large suitcase... be right back.. because this will bug me all day. Bad enough to misplace things, but when it's a whole week late... well just can't even retrace....

brb

[inu-kijo 0]

oh and something else (since I have just recently been able to draw after 4-5 months)

[Frannie 0]

ooooo love those Kijo! hurry and erase! hmm could print those out on fabric, couldn't I?

[Zoonie 0]

Loving your work Kijo.

Aaaw I see what you mean *taps nose*



Frannie, I do understand, it bugs me terribly - trouble is I keep looking in exactly the same places, totally unable to accept that what I'm looking for, isn't where I expect it to be.


My quote button's disappeared. Apparently it's a forumotion problem at the moment.

[Frannie 0]

i'll check the car next. I recall wanting my camera while I was driving. Drove past what used to be a filed of planted con and now is a field of those huge turbine fans. Guess it's more profitable to gown electricity instead of corn these days. It was quite amazing! turbine afte tubine.. hubdreds of them, all spinning

[inu-kijo 0]

why sure you could Frannie.
but you would allow me to provide you witha better quality wouldn't you? (thses are taken on my phone.
gill you would more than free to aopy as well, for sentimental reason if you wished. : D
2 more to come in that series,, but all i have done so far. : D

glad you guys like em.

[inu-kijo 0]

40 minutes.
then off to pick up my baby.
home for a lil sleep
one more shift
then off to see Tan Tan


Frannie I really hope you find the camera.... most of the time when you are at the brink of flying off the handle it has a way of showing back up.
: D

[Frannie 0]

no hurry Kijo.. wouldn't those look great in a photo quilt!

Gill, yesterday you wrote that 2 more people are in love with Socks.. are these two, other than the ones who adopted him? or the same?

[Frannie 0]

at least I have the camera.. it's just the case holding the cod and chager. If I don't find them, then they must be at cousin's house

[lea75 0]

just to let you all know that due to a technical issue I have had to temporarily disable the quote and multi-quote function on the site

All updates as well as a full explanation can be found HERE

[Zoonie 0]

Thanks Lea. We'll be patient

Would love a copy Kijo, you know why aaaaw.



Frannie, it's his new owners, they've had him since Good Friday and totally adore him...so it all worked out in the end.

[Frannie 0]

ahem... Zoonie looks adorable in his dress today!

[inu-kijo 0]

Sure guys I will work on that later.
Will send a copy with and without my recycled papered background.
and Frannie if you areinterested in getting the rest as I finish them, would be more than glad to send those as it comes.
or even mail you a hard copy. : D

not sure if you guys know, but tanya nad I are planningt o steal BG when she comes to the states.
we decided tongiht that we are gonna have matching shirts, so gonna work on that later. : D

[Zoonie 0]

Sounds a hoot Kijo




Thanks Frannie, that's the very dress that started off Freaky Friday, remember?
rofl!

[Frannie 0]

steal her, eh? I was looking for her to land somewhere in the midwest to do the same thing LOL. Maybe she needs to travel with a body guard?

[Frannie 0]

digital copies are fine. I print from the computer onto treated fabric, which is ironed to freezer paper so that the printer accepts it

[inu-kijo 0]

:LMAO. apparently so. its not set in concrete yet, but because of safety issues the only way she can come down here is if she has a travel buddy.
: D


maybe we can work you into the mix somehowtanya apparently has like 50 spare bedrooms......

[Frannie 0]

well we shall see. Keep me posted.


I have to go lie down. Feel really dizzy and sick to stomach. Am sure it's last night's pain meds. Took two instead of one and that always gets me.
have a good day, everyone. Drive safely kijo

[inu-kijo 0]

i will send you a message when i know more about the situation.

[Zoonie 0]

Hope you feel better after a nap Frannie


My connection has started playing up, so I may disappear without warning

[inu-kijo 0]

[Zoonie 0]

ROFL - well done Frannie la Fran.

[Wish Fairy 0]

Well, I just popped by as I finally have 5 mins to myself and I miss you all so much. There aren't enough hours in my week lately.

Hope everyone is ok !

[Wish Fairy 0]

By the way
HUGE THANK YOU to

[Wish Fairy 0]

[Zoonie 0]

Just missed you Army, it's only just gone half seven in the morning here, dull day, but yes, Mindy IT'S THE WEEKEND Whoop Whoop Whoop!

[Wish Fairy 0]

Oh No I just missed Armell .............

GILL (squealing loudly)How are you ?

I'm just here quickly before golf today. What's going on with you ?

[Zoonie 0]

(((Wish))) wooooo. I'm ok thanks, was just at Kitty's sending stuff to you

[Zoonie 0]

You can check the list in here for the Mexican stuff and copy and paste what you need if that helps?

The pinata and food delivery stuff continues this week, so as you have to log in every day and get it, shall I keep doing that for you? or are you logging in?

Not a very nice day for golf here.

We're going off to the asparagus farm for IMOM's fix

[Zoonie 0]

BTW the quote function hasn't been working here, something Lea is looking in to with forumotion.

And - I look wrecked because I stayed up listening to the election night news - it's caught up with me!

[Wish Fairy 0]

Oooh Asparagus - my favourite!!

It's dry and not windy here so should be ok for golf.

Thanks again for the TWS. I will try to get time to check the list, but I think that I have most things I need

[Zoonie 0]

If you don't have them you know there's no panic because they'll be in the chest safely waiting.

I'm not keen on asparagus myself, but IMOM loves it.

Oh and in my other news, the decorators start on Monday, even though we're still waiting to finish the bathroom with the replacement basin.


How's the work project going? bet you're tired?

[Wish Fairy 0]

Good news about the decorator !!
I stayed up til about 12.40am for the election, but had to go to bed at 9pm last night to catch up.

On the project front I have 2 projects in Edinburgh and a large project in Suffolk, so basically my week goes:

Monday start 4am, finish 8.30pm
Tuesday start 6am, finish whenever I get home- 9pm
Wednesday go to the local office and catch up with paperwork
Thursday start 4am for Edinburgh early flight, back 9pm
Friday go the local office for project meetings
In the meantime there are conf calls randomly and the CAB work in the evenings
I too look like hell LOL and so does the garden :-(
Looking forward to the golf course, so I can switch off a bit

[Zoonie 0]

That's a really punishing schedule, how have the flights been?

Our garden is a horrendous mess, the beds are very overgrown, infact the best grass we've got is in the flower beds Oh and we have just one baby bunny out , usually we expect up to a dozen.


How long is this kind of workload going to go on for?

[Wish Fairy 0]

LMAO at your grass - ours is the same. We don't have rabbits - thankfully as I can only imagine the dogs....

Yikes - it;s pouring with rain here now :-( Aww no!

I think the workload will be like this for most of the summer - I need to make the most of it anyway as it's a great opportunity and the company is really good!
I;m just gonna suck it up LOL

[Zoonie 0]

LOL, Dennis doesn't seem to worry about the rabbits, but they mostly stay down in the final 2/3 of the garden, although they do come up in the evenings to look for scrap food that we put out for the foxes.

He's quite keen to get his eye on the squirrels though, despite never really catching one - they've come back again now Socks has gone (so he must've been quicker hee hee)

[Wish Fairy 0]

Hee Hee - squirrels are hilarious. Pip hates them with a passion and is always on squirrel alert. Same with pigeons !

Gosh the weather has really turned awful here. Golf in the rain is not that much fun. I have waterproofs but they are miles too big for me now LOL I will look like the Michelin man

Must go and get ready. So lovely to be able to chat.
Have a fab day Gill - thanks for everything and give my love to everyone else. Hope to see you soon xoxoxoxo

[Zoonie 0]

You're very welcome. Will do.


Hope you get on ok, fingers crossed. xxx
