CLYNN   Some more painted pumpkins  :)   I don't think Tim knows how to turn the washer on  ::)  But he can now turn on the dishwasher - leading is questionable however  LOL   I use my finger mute button when I want Tim to cut to the chase  sigh...
 We have similar flashlights not made by Duracell however.     LOLOL  Thanks for posting the Fractured Fairy tale.  Don't think as a child I would have gotten the ending  LOL     Awww that sweet little girl repairing the sidewalk crack.    " ricocheted thoughts"  ;D ;D

EAGLES   Thanks for confirming my thoughts about Prevagen.  Enjoy your afternoon  :)

KAREN    So hard to hear the stories your HHA has to tell.  :'( :'(

Off to meet Puff half way for lunch and her coat give-away.  See you all later.

Hundreds of unwanted dogs has been taking in by one lovely lady in Costa Rica



Phyl, Beautiful and peaceful nature video.... {{{Newman}}}

Lisa, I hope all goes well with your dr appt, safe travels.

Clynn, Love the pumpkins and sweet girl taking care of the concrete owies.  :-*

Eagles good advice from your doctor, mine said the same.... I hate taking pills or medicine or getting shots so that advice works for me.  ;D ... have a fun day with your friend.

Tsk Have a lovely day with Puff, safe travels and give her a hug from me..... I took our dog Barkley to the Pet Blessing at our church one time.... We met at a lovely park, all these gorgeous animals, dogs, cats, rabbits and even a guinea pig all gathered round. Barkley wasn't too pleased, but sat and waited quietly. Then Rev. Susan started at the opposite side of us. She used a small willow branch to bless each animal, calling each pet by name. Barkley was eyeing this ceremony very suspicious about the whole thing. So by the time Susan nears us, Barkley takes one long look at her the branch as it touches each pet's head and he runs to the car. With apologies to Rev. Susan we left.... We bought him an ice cream cone, as well as something for us and went home.  ;D

Karen, I'm sorry, very sad situation for your HHA, saying a prayer for you and family.

Good Afternoon Beakers

Back from eye doctor, and still a lil dilated. 

{{{Kb, Chris, Ollie}}} Remembering Scott, and sending you hugs.

Phyl - Aww, Maggie going to get her blessing.  :-*

Lani - All went well at eye appt, and a slight change in the bifocal script, but not enough that I need to go get a new pair of glasses this year.

tsk - Enjoy your day with Puff.  Give her a hug from me!

karen - Wow, sounds like your HHA and her mother have alot on their plate.

E4E - Thank you  :)

clynn;D ;D  Misty.  Oh, more pretty pumpkins!

Waving to All the Beakers!  :D

Clynn, thanks for the Fractured Fairy Tale. They're so funny!

Lani, LOL on Barkley at the blessing... and awww, Barkley.  :-*

TSK and E4E, that's what I figured about the OTC memory boosters... yes, very pricey! I figured if they worked, every doc would be telling their patients to take it. LOL. But it's good to get some 1st person reports.

TSK, I'm with you on the alternate non-med approach.  ;) I've never heard of the finger mute button. LOL. Is yours the same as in Phyl's picture? Enjoy meeting Puff for lunch and the coat donations.

Karen, your HHA is dealing with a lot. Hope her mother recovers and gets home again soon and can continue with child care help. I hope you can get another HHA who doesn't bring all her personal troubles to your door... I don't think that's supposed to be part of the program.  Also, be wary of anyone who might be preying on older folks having sympathy for them, to get money from them. I'm not saying that's what your HHA is doing, but there are plenty who have... hate people need to be on the lookout for that kind of scam, but it is a common one, as I'm sure you know.

KB, take care.

Lisa, you're really diligent about your eye checkups. Glad you don't need to shell out again this year for new glasses.

Phyl, I had The Weather Channel on earlier today, and they did a blurb on Fat Bear Week, with pictures of some of the popular candidates.  :D


Off to pull together some late lunch... mixed salad greens, with diced roma tomatoes, diced onion, diced green bell pepper, broccoli, and topped with some garlic shrimp. Will mix EVOO and Balsamic vinegar with a whole bunch of dried herbs and spices and drizzle it over. Same lunch I had yesterday.!  ;D Ho hum.

Clynn, like you, I chop it up in the kitchen so I don't have to fiddle with it while I eat.  :D

LANI   I think if I had property to spare I would do something like that kind lady to tend to all those dogs.    LOLOL  Barkley and his blessing story - a riot!!!

PHYL   Yes it works perfectly.  I pretend I'm holding the remote the then gesture how you would press "mute"   ;) ;)

KB  We remember this day for you when Scott passed.  We all felt it and hopefully the memories are all good for you today. (((KB)))

LISA   Lucky you - no changes in your glasses required.  The last couple years I've had significant changes - not to my liking.

BAZI    I pretend to hold the remote and gesture pressing the "mute" button while pointing it at him.  He gets the idea.   Or if her is watching TV and I need to ask him something - I do the same thing which gets him to actually mute his TV so I can talk. LOL

Wonderful to see PUFF today and her sparkling black Challenger in mint condition.  Like we both said her trunk would easily hold a head body BUT luckily about 20 coats got transferred to my trunk instead - some homeless will be looking quite smart this winter.  Thanks PUFF  Good catch up lunch.

tsk -   Last year when I went to eye doctor, and got new glasses I did not like the strength of the bifocal part.  I felt like I had to bring everything closer to me, and I had a hard time seeing what I was cooking on the stove.  I called her back and told her that, and she had to lower that strength.  I feel like I can still see pretty good out of the script from last year, even tho she said it slightly changed. 

baz - Your lunch sounds delicious!

A Sydney pic, or two :D

BTW all spending some time with us--we did have a nice afternoon - but not so much lunch because so much talking was going on.  Leftovers for dinner.  So close - 20 minutes maybe to meet up at the between spot.  We have no good excuses.  It's embarassing.  Let's do better in the future tsk.

BTW - I found the little bag right in the spot next to my handbag - so I would remember to grab it.  I FORGOT!   :-[

LISA   Look at that cute Sydney all ready for trick or treat  ;D  I can just hear the squeals  ;)   Clever sitting up device - I've never seen one like that before.

PUFF   Completely forgot about the blessing  :P   I went home a different way and it only took me 25 minutes  ;D - So you are right - no good excuse for not meeting up more often.

Karen - Like the story on your shih tzus Pups - isn't it funny how they (pups) love to hop up into cars! :)

Tsk - Glad you met up with Puff today!  I bet you both could have talked for hours! Lol  ;D  That's great about getting all those coats to be donated!

Lani - Blessings to the lady in Costa Rica that provides a home to many dogs - looks like she has the property for it!   Like the cute story of Barkley! ;D

LisaG - Having to have your eyes dilated is just about the worst - I sure do not like it! ::)   Glad that it seems your appt went well. :)   Sweet, darling pics of Sydney!! ;D

Bazi - Sounds like a good lunch for you today!  Good cautionary words for Karen - a person just can't be too careful these days.

Sorry this is being posted a little late today, but want to post anyway:  Thinking of Scott on his heavenly birthday  {{{Kb}}}

This kaleidoscope of colors in such a place.

One of the most spectacular things these eyes have ever seen sans trees.
