I say yes, you say no, OR People are Strange

Ummm ...  Anne's 'fashion statement' seems to be the way to fame and fortune.   

Sunflowers ... just glue some glitter on your scooter and you'll be good to go. 

I'm glad HL is staying in the hospital longer.  20 hours is a LONG time under sedation. 

E, so good to hear about your clear scans.

Anne, are you going to post your pic when the calendar comes out?  I hope so!

AnnNY, I am worried about you.  Are you getting out of the way of Irene?  It sounds like NY city is going to take a beating.

Blue, I definitely remember that episode when it aired.  Too funny.  I was fortunate enough to see Harvey and Tim the year before Harvey died.  Funny even then!

Rosemary, Baxter is georgeous!  

RP, I was dressed as glitzy as I ever get at the get together!  I don't wear lipstick but I use a lot of lip moisturizers.  Does that count? 

Blue - I am dating myself too - I remember when that episode aired and to this day every time I see it I laugh.

More rules ... I hates rules    I thought we were the 'do your own thing' generation ... what happened to us??  Yuppies, yuppies around every corner ... run for your life!

Now to important stuff ... has anybody heard from AnnNYC??  Do you suppose she is having to evacuate?

I don't know whether to hope that Layne is able to leave the hospital or to hope they can make her more comfortable there and make her stay a little longer.  The storm is going to complicate things too ... when is it supposed to hit there?

Hi Guys .. I think AnnNYC is about an hour north of Manhattan visiting a friend this weekend.  She is away from Manhattan so I don't think she has to worry about evacuating.

Yes - it's a category three and it self-destructs. Just watch the storm surge!

Ducky .. keeping you in my thoughts.  Sure hope there is no bad damage to either of your homes.  Also glad to hear you are staying with your daughter.

Sending you a big hug,

Bren

It must be terrifying.  The severe thunder storms here the other day were scary enough.  We watched them from our front porch with both awe and fear!

Blue .. glad your family is home safe and sound.  I know you were worried about them.

hugs,

Bren

Aw, ducky... we're all hoping your house(s) withstand the wind and surge.  Apparently, Irene isn't so much a wind threat as a surge threat. 

Old houses sometimes do better than newer ones when hurricanes hit.  The older ones were built better, apparently.  (Our contractor thought we were loony when we insisted on strong anchor bolts and hurricane straps on our new house, which is hundreds of miles from the Gulf Coast.  He said he'd been building houses for 20 years and had not yet had one blow away.  He went bankrupt a year later, due to over-extending his finances rather than lack of hurricane straps.)

I hope HL is catching up on her rest.  Twenty hours of anesthesia does not count as "rest".  It might be weeks before her body recovers from that long anesthesia.

Everybody please stay safe.  I saw the track of that thing, raking up the East Coast.  Looks scary.  I hope it looks scarier than it is.  Maybe the fact that we haven't had a serious land-falling hurricane here in the U.S. for such a long time is making people especially cautious.  I think we're safe here in south-central Montana (except from snow of course!).

Ah yes our own little personal hurricane - gotta love it.

Ducky - I am keeping everything crossed for you and I'm glad you're going to your daughter's.

Hope they're keeping HL in hospital over the weekend her body needs to mend (I still can't believe they did 20 hours of surgery - yikes!)
