I just had time to catch up and I'm just shocked. I had been following her progress on facebook and thought she was doing amazingly well. I'm so sorry. My thoughts and prayers to all of you who Knew her. She was so nice to Al and I when we visited out there some years ago.

Hi. It's nice to hear from you both. We did have a nice Christmas and it's very unseasonaly warm here too. 60 tomorrow with rain coming in tomorrow night. Maybe we all ran out of things to say? I'd love to see the good part of the forum active again. It was a lot of fun. Perhaps there is hope after all. Have a wonderful day.

Merry Christmas to anyone still left. The east coast is still here and Al and I are still alive. I guess I've been shunned, so I'll go back to facebook. Such a shame. I always enjoyed the good conversations here, but never cared for the bullies. I doubt I'll ever visit Kansas again. Have a good 2020.

Perhaps more to come? We get little bitty ones here too, but usually we don't feel them. That one we felt several years ago was a 5. something and did some damage, but not near here and closed the Washington Monument for quite a while. I can deal with our hurricanes and little 0 tornados... had one flip a car yesterday and do some damage not too far away in PA yesterday. It was near a friend's house at the building where her daughter works, but being a Sunday she wasn't there. The security camera caught the car flip ove,r so we got to see it. scary.  Now real earthquakes scare me to death!  We have more thunderstorms predicted for early evening. We'll see what happens this time.

I was thinking about you when we heard about all your rockin' and rollin' out there. I'm glad to hear it didn't spill your nice cold glass of iced tea. HA!  We had our first tomatoes on Thursday and some nice green peppers too. It's too hot here, but we're doing Ok with it so far.
 I've picked up an irregular heart beat and have a cardiac ultrasound on Monday to see if it's nothing or something. We'll see. Stay cool!

More out there yet again. I feel so bad for everyone affected by the tornados and straight line wind storms. Please stay safe all.

We've been watching your weather out there. I sure hope everyone is OK. Yikes. We may get the dregs of it tomorrow night  but hopefully it will go north of us.Thinking of you all.

I hope all you moms out there had a nice Mother's Day. We had rain...again.We got the garden planted but I think it drowned. I hear Judy Harder is having a bad time of it. Facebook messed me up and I've had to start a new account.They did apologize, but I'm still trying to recover my friends.When I ask they assume I've been hacked and some won't friend me again. Please ask for me back... I miss you!

More storms went rumbling through yesterday, but we had already finished restaining the deck and all the old redwood furniture, so it didn't matter to us. Some folks lost trees in straight line winds and we were on a tornado watch for awhile .
I got all my pansies and petunias...now to get them in their pots and hanging baskets. I've got my tomatoes and peppers too, but it's going to get down to 39 here tomorrow night, so I think I'll just wait a bit longer. My "nose " garden smells wonderful right now.The lilacs, wisteria and Carolina sweet shrub are so nice. The earliest bulbs are finished but the later ones still look good.
The wrens have returned and we saw our catbird this morning. He came over and licked some sugar water from the hummer feeder. No hummers yet. They are late this year.
 I hope you are all well and enjoying spring.
