Paulie--like the roll-away kitchen island.  Push it to a side wall and let the hoe-down begin!  :) ;)

Pauli, lovely cabin/getaway!  Hope you can find the other pictures and post them!  Do you have a wildlife cam up sp you can see who comes to call when you are away? Think you mentioned a bear.  Kitchen will allow you to cook anything! Incan just imagine a Thanksgiving dinner for the family!  Awesome aromas mixed with the woods!   Thanks for posting!

Love your cabin Paulie, so jealous keep the photoscoming.  How far away are you from me (the cabin) I feel a long weekend trip coming  LOL ;)

AC was not fixed and I have myh doubts for tomorrow. It is suppose to rain and the AC is outside  in s little storage shed on the porch. maybe the balcony from upstairs will keeep  them a little dry.  I am working from home tomorrow and I will be calling them in the AM.  My throat has been sore since my AC broke. Maybe the dryness>


PT.  WOW My knee caps are sore.  95% of my exercise bending my knee in oe way or another is involved!!! It's sore but feels more flexible.  (sounds weird)

Paaulie, I didnt get both flu and covid shots at same time. but you can. at least at CVS you can when you make an appointment for 1 it will ask you if you want both (and other choices ) my sister heard  some people had bad reactions getting both shots at sae time.  I am getting my covid shot sept 30.  I changed it.  I wanted to make sure the new one was out (which will be available this weekend. But I want a couplemore weeks inbetween the 2. 

Copper isnt scratching as much today but I am still giving hi a bath this weekend at my dads he has a house and Ijust got the shampoo.

I had over 300 missives and such in my mail once I finally go the mess fixed. Been catching up   >:(

Paulie that's some 'cabin' in the woods! Possibly a 'retirement' home later?  I think LB and I are driving up in the spring.  ;D
                  Just roll that kitchen island to the side and let the party b-e-g-i-n!!!!!
                  Oh yeah! More photos...

LB I just don't know what to say! Or what to suggest!  There must be more 'creative' ways to express your needs. For your throat boil some water to add moisture for your sinuses and other mucus tissues. Gargle tepid water may also help.  Nope. None of what you say is 'wierd'. That 'fluid' around the knee is
   getting moved about and will lubricate the joint. Be gentle with your self.
So glad Copper is doing better. The PT folks are getting you all 'tuned-up'.  ;)

Hi jicaji happy t hear that your back is doing miuch better and all. Take care. Don't want you hurt ---pack your bags and ride up to Paulie's with LB and Me!  ;)

I knew I forgot something.  Paulie, Iiddnt get the covid and flue sht at the same time.  My sister said she knows of people who had a bad reaction when they got both.  I was going to get the covid shot this weekend but I moved it out to Septemeber 30. I wanted to make sure the new shot to cover the newest strain was out. It turns out it will be ready this weekend or withing the week

Oh my gosh! I never expected all the responses to the pictures I posted! You/friends are Awesome!
Thank you for sharing in the excitement and happiness with me.  :-*

Let me do some reply posts then I'll hopefully be able to post more pics if I'm not told the size is too big again. I haven't a clue how to reduce size to be able to post.

This afternoon I was annoyed with myself not being able to find them on laptop. Turns out I hadn't downloaded them yet. lol  ::) ;D

Puff, Thank you very much. Heck yeah to After the Fledge After Party 2024 would be awesome. We'd allll have a blast I know that.

Yes to a long time dream getting to fruition for sure. We've owned the land for over 20 years and from the time we bought it we, along with our children, had dreams of a cabin some day. But with four children still growing up and then three grandchildren there was always things needing to be done. Raising four children $ .. college $ .. weddings $ and whatever. No problem though because family comes first. God blessed my husband and me a year ago and we were able to fulfill the cabin dream.

About 20 years ago I came across a cabin photo that I cut and had hanging on my home kitchen refrigerator with cabin dream we all had. Even when a refrigerator broke down it was hung back onto the door of the new one.
I took a picture of it hanging now on the cabin fridge door. I'll try to post it for you all to see.

Hi eburg!! How are you? All's good I hope.

Thanks about the roll-away kitchen island. Actually I did get it with wheels for that very reason! Lol
My two son's (and I have two daughter's that chimed in) said "Let's get a pool table!" My reply ... Umm we need a table to sit at to eat.
Well that got me thinking. I googled combo dining tables on Wayfair. I found one .. on Sale too! .. that's a dining table combo. The top is two pieces/half's that when turned over is a ping-pong table. Remove the two and there's a regular size pool table too! The benches lift up and that's where the pool sticks etc and pin-pong net and paddles/balls are stored. All came together. One price On Sale. We got it!

I'll look for and hopefully post a pic.

Hi Karen! Are you sitting on your stool with sides that I got us and others too for Cheers?  :) Oh! And I got us a step stool tool Lol

That's an inside joke Karen and I have because we've both had "a fall" and are getting shorter. Ugh!
Quick side story. I have .. "had" always been 5'5". At a Dr appt this summer they took my height. 5' 2". I said, "Nope! Let's try this again."
The nurse and I were laughing. Well yes to now 5'2". Me .. being the numb skull I can be said .. "I've neen wondering why my long pants seem to be longer and down at the heel of my feet!" Duh!!  ;D
I'll post a pic of the stool we all now have in Cheers .. and there's a step stool behind the bar for any of us who need it.  :D

Okay back to my reply. Okay I'll definitely try to post more pics.

Yes to having a trail cam .. 3 of them so far .. to see what's moving around in the woods and yes I've mentioned a bear before. A Black Bear and her 3 cubs have been on trail cam and also Ring camera we have at front and rear of cabin. Luckily they've shown up when we are not at the cabin.

The cameras have shown Elk, coyotes, deer of course .. bucks and does .. precious young fawns too .. and a racoon family of 7 .. the babies so small and cute .. and a yellow skunk with black stripe down its back!! I didn't know about yellow skunks before. It likes to walk back and forth behind the cabin. Needless to stay at dusk most of us stay inside. Lol

And yes to definitely cooking some good meals in kitchen. I like you mentioning Thanksgiving because it's been a dream of mine for literally years of having Thanksgiving or especisally Christmas at cabin with family. We shall see.

Here's the stool we all now have in Cheers. We all need to stay upright.  ;D

Puff, I forgot to mention something about BE's when you said After The Fledge. When we're driving to the cabin located in western PA we drive up a very steep mountain w/lots of curves (I don't like that part) where we drive past Bald Eagle State Forrest. Beautiful especially at the peak. In the many years we've driven there I've seen BE's soaring above.

Here's a link to a lodge that's located at the park. I bet you, being the RRP Travel Agent, could get some good get-away deals.  :)

Can anyone imagine yourself sitting on one of these decks looking out at the awesome views? Yep me too!

Hey LB, Thank you and okay to continuing pics if I not too big. lol Hmmmm how far are you and I from the cabin. I think from me at home and you in NJ is about a 4 hour drive .. to the cabin add 2 1/2 hours and you'll be there! We'd have a blast for sure!!  ;D

Darn it to your AC. Good that's you are working from home tomorrow so hopefully the repairman arrives. The balcony above you should keep him okay to install I hope.
Speaking of upstairs. Since the noisy neighbors that used to live above you are gone .. are the new ones quieter?

Maybe drink more water and suck on some hard candy to help your throat?

Very good that your knees feel more flexible despite the soreness. More flexible is good.

Okay and good about you not getting flu and covid shots together. Good advise from your sister. You waiting until the end of Sept for covid shot makes sense. I didn't know the new one covers the new strain. Geesh like the flu. Always different strains.

Good news Copper isn't scratching as much. He's going to feel good after the bath you give him this weekend at your father's house.
He's lucky to have you.
