Wow 4:36 Was a great day today. Had a nice relaxing ride from Peninsula to Akron and back with a lot of happy but tired people.  The train was comfy.  The views wre mostly leaves with very rare homes and fields etc. Lots of walking due to the parking situated at one end of the train and the boarding at the other end . One 87 year old woman wanted to use a wheelchair to get to her car, but the railroad said "no"!  I could not believe it, since they stopped the train twice to allow tired bikers to board and loaded their bikes into a box car for them. Then for on 5 dollars they took them all the way to end where there car was waiting. The bikers were using a nice trail along the old canal.
Well got home at about 7 and went to sleep.  We did have a nice dinner in Peninsula at Fisher's Cafe.
Well now I am going to rest up for tomorrow when I will go again to the Fair.  Karen will not go.
Tonight she wants to watch the Democratic Convention.  I have seen enough and will go to bed instead.
GBU all and Israel, and Ukraine too.

hi you guys its 57 here i got out before raccoonies woke up when i got in the barn i dumped the dry dog food told indy hold on boy and then raccoonies stumbled out of the hay tunnels eating dry food one followed me back to indy got cookies had 3 moms and 6 kids when i went out saw three more and jim heading to the barn he had his bowl of cookies for them.

hi joho well after reading all that walking due to parking lot situation i dont know about riding that train and could not let a 87 old woman use a wheelchair.  i thought laws against that nice help out the bikers for a price but a wheelchair i will just watch trains on pbs thanks for telling about it. i did not watch any of dem convention did not watch any convention i watched some shows i had taped awhile back the Connors. i have like a bunch of them two seasons worth some of the shows i laughed out loud. i cant believe all the weight john goodman has lost. show doing just fine without roseanne i think.

6:13 on the car Pizza. Cold out this morning.  I put off going to the fair until soon to let it warm up bit.
Thinking I will eat some leftover tuna salad before I go.  Then get some food at the fair later while watching some dog agility in the show barn. Of course I will visit the goats just to pet a few.
 I will be on my own, but that is ok.  I will take my walker and it will be fine.
 Going to class brunch tomorrow.  Our coordinator Betty tells me she took a tumble on concrete about 5 weeks ago and is still healing.  No broken bones, but lots of bruising.  This is the second serious fall she has had in the last two years.  Her last fall was worse.  She laid in her front yard for a long time with a broken bones.  Then just went into her home with the help of a neighbor.  Finally the next day she called for the squad. This time she got home on her own, then called the squad.  After some first aid they just told her to go and be more careful.  Of course she had no way to go any where and need a support of some kind to stand up.  After she pointed this out to the doctor she got a walker and called her daughter to get her home.  Sometimes we are too independent for our own good. I will be glad to see her tomorrow.
Now to get ready and go to the fair.  Very nice out now.  Bye EV1 GBU, Israel, Ukraine and those in need.

GO KAMALA!!!!!!

7:12 Watery eyes again.  Slows me down, but not uncomfortable.
Nice dew out this morning.  Reminds me of our honeymoon days.  I love it, but feel a little sad I am alone this morning.  Poor me. Sob Sob Sob. So what's new about that?  LOL  I will live. 
 Lunch at 11:30 today at Olive Garden with 4 remaining classmates will help.
Did get to the fair yesterday on my own all day.  Ended up in the show barn with the 4H agility dog show.  It was some what disorganized.  They used up most of their time raising and lowering the hazards and jumps for dog size instead of grouping the line up by size as I usually see done. Unfortunately the high light was when the tallest dog, a Malinois police dog, showed some of his previous training by turning on his handler after falling off the side of the ramp, and tearing her sleeve off her arm.  I think he mistook her long black sleeve for the padding he was used to biting into.  There was some blood too.  They may have been disqualified.
Exciting , but scary too.
Did not see Karen all day. She does not like the animal part of the fair.  She knows where they go from here.  She was busy with chores all day.  I am sure she tuned in to watch the convention.  I did send her a trial text with a few audio seconds of a Johnny Cash sound alike from the fair.  She said it came through ok.  He did sound good, and was all in black with long black hair.  Large crowd for his show which was part of the free entertainment.
OK now my second cup is cold.  So I will say cul EV1 GBU

6:11 Not been out yet today.  Not even to get my mail and paper for morning.  Did not see anyone all day yesterday or today. I just watched TV and ate all day.
 On Monday morning I will drive 4 dogs and 16 cats to the vet in Kent from ARF in Columbia Station to get fixed.  Then they can be adopted Debbie says.
Karen is staying over at her girl's house  tonight.
I might go to the fair tomorrow.  Might not.
Well sounds like your one cat is a lot more of a challenge than my 8, because I have help.  I just drive the van.
Will say good nigh now and GBU all.  GO KAMALA!!!!

hi you guys its 74 here be over 100 today i gave my cat a whole sedative at 4 am i need to check and see if she will let me pet her again. i am stressed out over this she has to be there tomorrow at 8;30 am she does not seem to be in any pain eating well just that cyst on her cheek and it is getting bigger jim says he can get her with a sleeping bag well jim if you should be able to get close enough to her to throw that over her and she sleeps right next to big pulver and she does not claw you cause your pain level is zero and she nails you you will blow up screw the cat im done you would have to put her and that whole sleeping bag in that carrier. dont see that my biggest hope i think at this point catching her in that live trap. no one gets hurts if i cant get her then surgery will have to wait for a few months. next time i get her dr better just plan on taking off that cyst. i am hoping when i check in when i get done her she will at least let me come near her again.

hi joho i sure do wish someone could get her for me good luck with all of yours and yes nice you have help and the help knows how to help

6:36 Good morning EV1 Finally took time to do it. Ate lunch at the same time. Very nice day after a little shower at dawn.
Going to the fair soon.  I will stop to see Bonnie on my way.  She loves the fair, but can't go there anymore.  It's sad to think of how much she loved the fair.  I will go for her, but not tell her unless she brings it up.  Maybe Annie will be with her too.
 Well, bye for now EV!.  GBU all.

It is % am over here.  I been up an hour already.  Could not sleep.  Woke up every hour or so all night.  I probably should tell them I can only do afternoon trips.  Due to sleeplessness, but I won't.  I will try to adjust and make sure someone takes the animals early.  Even if it is me.
Eyes will not quit being gritty this morning.  I already washed them out and put in drops for dry eye.  It is not working.  I will put in some allergy drops in a while to see if they work better.  I really do not like putting drops in my eyes.  I sure wish I could get a decent diagnosis.
Had a fair time at the fair after visiting Bonnie and Annie at Keystone Point. It really was too hot for comfort. Everyone seemed a little testy.  My favorite vendor, the peanut lady and her husband got into an altercation that needed the sheriff while tearing down their trailer.  I would have got involved if it had lasted a few seconds longer.  She was going to separate two men.  I would have helped her, but the sheriff was right there.  She seemed to have a chip on her shoulder this year.  I am not sure why.  I complimented her on keeping her price at $3 while all the other vendors copied the Republican's plan of putting the hurt on everyone  I mean $4 hotdogs.  $10 polish and Italian sausage sandwiches. $5,$8,$12 fries.  WTH?  Come on.  I saw so many families telling kids "no" to this and "no" to that.  It was slickening 
Did not see Karen all weekend, and I don't like it.  I will see her tonight, because she wants to go watch a showing of Mama Mia at her lodge.  I avoided the lodge for 14 years while I lived there, but for her I will go this time and see what happens.  It might be a good experience, but to start with we do not have a dinner plan that works for each of us. SOOOO?  I am thinking, maybe I will get a pizza for us an hour before the movie.
Bye now EV1.  Time to start getting ready for the road. GBU EV1 and GB Israel, Ukraine and all those in need.

5:42.  It is too hot here today. Even the house is heating up and feeling sweaty.
Going to outdoor movie, but kind of dreading it for a lot of reasons.  The good part is I will be with Karen. Now I need to get started . Bye for now.
All the animals got to where they needed to go.  So some good happened.  I pray for the cat Cal to simply have an abscess for Dr. Pimple Popper to pop. Why one day is better for this than another I wonder?
Bye for now EV1 GBU.
