    Morning all.

    Slow, people in this part of the world are very used to watching sport in the middle of the night. Last night both DH and I watched cricket live from Lords in London for several hours. Soon it will be tennis from Paris and London. Repeats are shown during the day but it's great to watch live. Since childhood we have got up to listen to or watch rugby matches. It is the problem with being twelve hours ahead of the UK. This is a sports crazy country.

    It is Friday morning here now and I am having a cup of tea before getting up. Have a big meeting to attend from today until Monday and not sure how I will cope. And it's live in as well.

    Will pop in at times.

    Big hugs for all.

    Ducky.. Yay.!! Sounds like fun is on its way.!!

    So.. I went and had my hair cut yesterday.. My usual hairdresser was booked solid So I was happy to have the new girl do it... Anyhow by the time she discussed that my hair was quite coarse, and did I realize I have a double crown hiding in there , and oh my goodness a cow-lick as well.. ( as if I have could of gotten to 55! without knowing this stuff.!! ) .. I didn't leave feeling too good about myself.. HaHa..

    Blondie, I hope you were able to get some rest.

    Alyson, I think that would be fun waking up in the middle of the night to watch a sporting event. When you can't sleep here in the States, mostly all that is on is informercials.

    Ducky, I love how you get to the point. "screw her and the horse she rode in on................moronI" hahahahaha. You always give me a good laugh. Hope you have a good time at the shore. Don't forget to take pictures!!

    Lucy, how terribly annoying. I think your hair is beautiful.....just like you. I also had a haircut yesterday. I think it's my fourth since it started growing back. I had my grays colored too. I was looking like a skunk.

    hahaha GMA.....love it!!

    I know many of you have been having iPad problems. Not sure if you've seen this post from the Mods. Thought I would copy and paste here in case you missed it.

    We have an iPad typing issue solution!!

    iPad users who know they have issues typing with the rich text editor; tap the "Use plain text editor" link before you start to type a post -- the link is located at the bottom right of the post text field, next to the Preview and Submit buttons. This will turn the rich text editor into a plain text box, which does not have any formatting options (e.g. bold, italic), but should be faster.

    Unfortunately, clicking this link and toggling to a plain text box will not permanently keep this as your default setting -- at this time, you'll have to tap the link each time you want to post. This is only meant as an interim fix -- unfortunately, a permanent fix will require money and time. Hopefully, we'll be able to implement a permanent fix in the future, but this should work for those having trouble in the time-being.

    We hope this helps, and please let us know if you have any questions or trouble using this new feature!

     I think I am coming east this summer.  My brother rented a house on chicoteague (sp?). I have two older boys who are probably working, but I think my 13 year old and I are going to go.  I am excited.  It has been years since I have been east, like 18 years.  And this is a great brother,  Actually, I love all my brothers.  I am blessed.

    kathy, May I ask where you live now?
    Like you, I haven't been east for a very long time. We moved to CA in the late 70's.

    hahaha Ducky! We would NEVER want to get rid of you!! Safe travels to the shore.

    Slow.. HaHa.. No.. You could never, ever look like a skunk!! 😃 You always look lovely. !! HaHa ..The expression tickles my fancy because coming from Australia the only skunk I "know " is Pepe Le Pew :-) ...Actually before my hair cut I was thinking I resembled Crusty the Clown 😊

    Ducky ..HaHa ..Too funny ...I. can't wait to try and fit that comment about the woman and her horse into conversation somewhere ..think I try it out on my kids for good shock value :-) I hope you have a lovely time away

    Kath ...your summer holiday plans with your brother sound fun !!

    Blondie ..Hi ..will catch up with you later on the insomniacs thread !!

    Kathy, My DH and I stayed in Sedona about four years ago. It's so pretty there with all that red rock.

    Ducky, your pool looks inviting, as always! I hope you're having a good weekend with your family.

    Lucy, I loved Pepe Le Pew!! I used to do a very good imitation of him when I was younger!!

    Blondie.....HI!!!!

    We went to my DD's today and went shopping. Been working on our backyard this weekend. We tore out all the grass right before I was diagnosed and we are finally working on it again. We are putting down pavers in an attempt to conserve on water. It sure is a lot of work. We hired someone to finish the job. lol .....It's WAY more work than we anticipated.

    Ducky..how beautiful your pool looks.. Hope up are having a lovely time away with the family.!

    Slow.. Yep.. Those Do -It- Yourself garden make-overs aren't as easy as they look on T.V.. Good idea to hire someone to help.. When it comes to those jobs I'm excellent at giving directions, but dam useless at actually doing anything constructive.! 😃

    Lucy........back home today.....left there 7am...wanted to avoid the traffic tonight.....all we did was clean the entire weekend........and I mean clean...it took my daughter on Friday.the entire day to just do the upstairs, and I can only do so much.........then on Saturday her daughter came down, and she did the entire dining room, and family room......this is moving furnitre, baseboard, big heavy cleaning.....windows, screens.....all this while my son in law was opening up the pool, and that is a massive job......I felt so baad for my daughter she could barely walk up the steps to bed.
    She has thyroid problems which has cause "frozen shoulder", and has aches and pains in her legs and feet......not fair that you have a couple people come down to help, and when the work is done the others show up.

    Welcome home Ducky! Sounds like a lot of work. I'm so glad you had help. The pool looks very inviting!!

    PTS, I love gardening but my body doesn't love it so much anymore. I did as much as I could, which wasn't much. My husband was doing most of the work. He has a bad back so I'm glad he finally agreed to hire someone to finish up.

    Lucy, that is SO true. They make it look so easy on TV!!

    Just my DH and I today. We are going to have a BBQ. DS is in Ohio visiting a childhood friend, and my DD didn't want to deal with the awful holiday traffic. We spent the day with her yesterday.

    Hope you all have a good day.

    Ducky.. Wow.. Sounds like a massive job getting the house back into order. It's amazing how much dust can get into a totally locked up house ! Yep.. always the way.. The same people get in and do the work.. and everyone else reaps the rewards.. !! I feel sorry for your daughter having the frozen shoulder. How long has she had it? I have a friend who had it , and it was awful for her.

    Slow.. Hope you enjoy your BBQ.. My daughter and her family are coming for lunch today and I'm preparing a strange mixture of a meal.. BBQ-ing steak, making a gnocchi bake, and garden salad.. The gnocchi receipe is so easy and morish and fattening.!! Base is cream, sundried pesto, chargrilled peppers and baby spinach.. Add gnocchi, then into a dish and a heap of parmasean cheese on top.!

    PTS.. I'd sooner get someone in to help too.. I love gardens, quite enjoy mowing the lawn, but I hate digging , and shovelling.. It's too hard on my back and I hate dirt under my nails.!

    Lucy.....she has hypothyroidisim........that causes frozen shoulder......first it was the right,, now it is the left......and when this girl cleans, she cleans.......its just not fair, so I am seriously thinking of selling it after this year..........I can't let everyone else do the work..........
    She also has other issues........she is a Director in a Big Pharma company in Philadelhia, and her work ethic is amazing, so she does way more then is expected.....understand she gets paid an amazing salary, but she givew much more then she gets..........I just can't have her and my SIL doing it all........and others think its ok to just come down and park and then leave..........

    Lucy....I would love that gnocchi recipe!! It sounds soooo good.

    PTS, good thinking....we certainly don't want to argue with our doctors when it's something in our favor!! haha
    Back problems can be so painful. I have RA in my neck, but it never affected my lower back.
    Now they tell me I have bulging discs. I don't know if it was from chemo or not.
    Did you have problems before treatment?

    Ducky, your daughter is a sweetheart for helping when she is in so much pain herself.
