Good morning and Happy Primrose Day everyone. The weather here today is decent but chilly. I do whish we would get some rain - preferably at night. I'm on my last book. So I should be back to my normal computer rounds tomorrow. But I give you fair warning - my next order is waiting in Amazon's cart. All I need is the willingness to spend the money.
Have a terrific Thursday everyone.

Good morning everyone. Right now we've got sunshine and blue skies but the forecast is for rain, rain, rain and falling temps. I just saw my first robin!! It's perched in a tree outside my window. They've probably been around for sometime but I hadn't seen any.
Have a terrific Thursday everyone.

Pod- -I believe she posted late yesterday. Her usual sunshine bragging self!! Kelly- -I hope your friend's wrist heals quickly. It's a real pain to have trouble with your arms and/or hands. Jack- -I fully sympathisize. Right now it's cloudy with sun but the rain is due to return later today along with a drop in temps. Much more of this and I'll start quacking like a duck. who- -You're morning greeting with dancing penguin reminds me of Ollie. I miss her penguin posts.

Good morning my friends. Today looks to be a lovely spring day with temp around 50. No rain for which I'm thankful. -I've been getting the message about too slow posting for the past couple of days. And after silently cursing, I usually discover that my tireless words of prose have been posted, giving me two posts the same!! 2nd round of Stanley Cup playoffs begins today - NY Rangers vs. Washington at 3 p.m. on NBC. I think the announcers said that with Vancourver out of the picture, the Rangers have home advantage for the rest of the playoffs. Not that it seems to matter much this year. So far the home team has lost as many times as it has won. Hopefully the game will be over by the time Mystery Persons begins or else I'm apt to be a mite distracted. I hope you all have a stupendous Saturday.
Mystery Persons tonight at 5 p.m. EST, 10 p.m. UK time

good morning everyone. Another day of sunshine and blue skies with temps rising into the 60s!! This time I hope the warmer weather sticks around. -I've been getting that proboard message for at least two days. The weird thing is - most of the time my message has been posted. The first couple of times I had refreshed and wound up with two identical posts. The Broadway Bullies otherwise known as the Philadelphia Flyers beat the NJ Devils in the 1st game of the 2nd round of the NHL playoffs. I think Martin Brodeur (NJ goalie) has passed his peak. A Hall of Fame player but he's now 40 years old and I think his reaction time has slowed. It happens to the best of us.
Have a madcap Monday everyone. #mornincoffee21# good morafternoon my UK friends. #d_sunny# Another day of sunshine and blue skies with temps rising into the 60s!! This time I hope the warmer weather sticks around. #jardinier# Pod- -Congrats. You got them to back down no matter how they spin it!! ???How's the missus doing? Feeling any better? Kelly- ;D-That pun is outrageous and I love it!!! #av-1955# Pip- #LaieA_062# -My day is a lovely spring day, just the kind I love. So there. #thank_you2-1# #thank_you2-1# #thank_you2-1#

Good morning everyone It's another nice day (so far), partly cloudy but warmer with the temp supposed to get to 71F today!! It may even reach 80 later this week!! I just can't seem to drum up any interest in the NBA playoffs. Boring. Kelly- -I don't care if you repeat a joke that you posted on the UK thread. I always come here first to get my daily grin.
Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone.

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone. I hate to break up all this good feeling BUT
#omg1#Have you seen this story of the mother who took her 5-year-old daughter to a tanning salon? I was appalled when I saw a picture of the woman. How could anyone do something like this to herself? Her face looks like leather. There must be something seriously wrong with this person to abuse herself this way!! 44-year-old Patricia Krentcil, who was charged with second-degree child endangerment, said her daughter was never exposed to the tanning booth's UV rays and instead got slightly sunburned while playing outside on a warm day. It's a wonder that she didn't subject her daughter to the tanning booth!!

Good morning everyone. Gloomy out with possible rain. We also had thunderboomers and rain last night, some so loud that they woke me up!! Temp has dropped some too. Yesterday we reached 79F - today the high is supposed to be 71F. Mariano Riviera, all-time saves leader, tore a right knee ligament while shagging balls in the outfield, an injury that could potentially end the 42-year-old's career. We-re lost!! It never fails to amaze me, the ego of some people. Have you seen the Richard Branson (owner of Virgin Airlines) ice cube? Can you imagine having your favorite cocktail and at the bottom of the glass looking at that face?
TGIF everyone.

Yesterday we reached 79F - today the high is supposed to be 71F. I had a nice visit with my granddaughter yesterday. She's growing by leaps and bounds (5 months old tomorrow). It looks like she may wind up with auburn hair and some kind of green eyes (with temper to match)!! She's begun to eat real food and is full of smiles. I adore her!!!!
TGIF everyone. #base2ball1# I love baseball and especially the NY Yankees. I like the leisureliness of it. Not everything in life has to be done at breakneck speed or have every single second filled with some activity. And with it's natrual breaks in the action at the end of each half inning, it isn't constantly interrupted by TV ads!! And gives you the perfect time to get a soda, bathroom break, etc. without missing the play on the field. #go_yankees-3828# I've been a Yankee fan for 62 years, from Joe DiMaggio, through Mickey Mantle, to Bernie Williams and now Curtis Grandison. One of my first memories of Yankee baseball was the goodbye ceremony for Babe Ruth a couple of months before he died of throat cancer.Baseball is the only sport that rally embraces and celebraes it's history, it fits me to a "T". #Catball# #Catball# #Catball# #Catball#

Good morning everyone. Sunshine and blue skies here today. Unfortunately for me, a bunch of Canadian clouds invaded my space last night and prevented my viewing the super moon. So who were rooting for in the Derby? My choice was Take Charge Indie but I'll Take Charge won. Ah well. Missed again. There was an item on the news this morning about a boy who was being bullied using a stun gun on his tormenters and being suspended from school. The gun was given to him by his mother because the school wouldn't do anything to protect her son. And the school still hasn't done anythin to those bullies. To me there's something wrong here. I can see why the school doesn't want kids carrying stun guns in school, but to suspend him and not those who are ultimately resonsible is senidng the wrong message - it's OK to bully and we'll look the other way.
I hope you all have a superb Sunday.

We'd love to have you. Even Pip looks in occasionally and who's a regular. #av-1955# I hope your wife's doing better. Kelly ::)Sorry that your weekend appears to be a downer, but #winnersmiley# that list is funny and all sooooo true. #mg_coffeespray#
I hope you all have a superb Sunday

I'm depressed. :(And to top off things, I've got a doctor's appointment when all I want to do is curl up with a good book. FS- -I love you UK peeps smileys. is perfect for Kelly!! as is for Pip and who. You're a marvel at finding the right smileys.

Good afternoon everyone. It's still gloomy, threatening rain and no sun in sight!!! But my lilacs are budding so some things are going right. Whatever is happening I wish they would fix it. Why is it that just as you get used to how something works computer-wise, the powers-that-be have to change things. Hasn't anybody over there hear the old adage - "If it ain't broke, don't fix it?"
I hope you all are having a terrific Thursday!! Yesterday was a disaster for NY sports teams - Knicks lost and are out of the playoffs, Rangers lost and now go to Game 7 of their NYL playoffs against Washington, and finally, the Yankees lost to the Rays when Robertson blew a save. Oh Mariano we miss you already. The Mets were the only winners.

Good morning everyone. Thank goodness it seems that my problems are over (until the next one comes along and at my age that could be any minute!!) The day is somewhat overcast right now but is supposed to to turn sunny later. The weather has been gorgeous and I'm getting thoroughly spoiled!! The lilacs are still blooming and their perfume still permeates the air.
Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone.
