Busy on the phone all morning, lining up schedules for medical stuff. August 21 and September 4. Guess that means another month of crocheting. 😆

@shellyrae37 SHELLY ... the doctor gave me some kind of prednisone pack where you take 6 pills on the first day, 5 on the next til you finally take just 1.

@wattleihavenext JULIE ... I'm wondering just like SHELLY is if you are still buying or if you just have tons of stuff at home that you no longer want? Does sound as though you are way too busy for now and need to slow down and catch your breath.

@amber1986 AMBER ... with 2 cats in the house I can't have any living plant life in the house...and I do miss that. Even the artificial eucalyptus tree has been attacked and severely damaged several times.

Was surprised to see I made a Ruby Lane sale, so I got it packed up and off to the Post Office. That was a pleasant surprise.

HI to DON and GEORGE!

Yesterday turned into a nice warm winter's sunny day.Today a little overcast but there is sunshine.
Gail @songbreeze I hope all your tests are OK
Amber @amber1986 yep I sure did have a ton of fun .Miss P has grown up so much in that short time. I missed her so much. Little Darcy her baby brother has grown too,I think they were both pleased to see me. Lots of hugs and cuddles from them both.
Shelly @shellyrae37 Housework can wait . Your well being is much more important

Here are some of my pics of The Great Ocean Road. I wil share some others later on. I have a ton of work that needs doing here. The fairies didn't come while I was away. Amzing how long the grass has grown and of course even though no one was living in the house the dust still manages to get in over everything LOL whinge whinge whinge whine whine whine

We needed the rain so badly, so we were ever so grateful. Still a bit of rain off and on. We got nearly 2" of rain. Temperatures are still suppose to be in the 90s today, but we are happy with the rain.

@amber1986 AMBER ... It is a small little booklet 7" x 6" that I got at WalMart. The title is BABY WRAPS: 8 crochet blankets. It is Leisure Arts and I think it is #5545. The actual name of the pattern is Spring Breeze.

@carma CARL ... sure would like to join you all for supper! 🙂

So I'm guessing all of you experiencing the heat and humidity aren't going to knock the doors down moving to Oklahoma? 😆 You're just experiencing our usual summer. Most of us simply try to never be more than an arm's length away from an air conditioner between May through August.

@fyrqueen KATIE ... so glad to hear you are home. Hope you aren't going to get too restless and try to do too much too soon. Give yourself time to mend.

@amber1986 AMBER ... all is well. Just following my instructions. Main testing will be next Thursday. Got all my 5 grandkids' blankets mailed yesterday and now must find another project.

HI to CARL, REEN, DON and GEORGE!

@amber1986 AMBER ... thanks for your encouragement. Actually failed both my stress test and renal artery sonogram. On more medicine now and feel like I'm moving in slow motion. 🙂 More doctor appointments and waiting for a diagnostic angiogram appointment. Just sitting around being lazy in the meantime...and enjoying it thoroughly! 😀

Medicine is helping so far, but I have to see a specialist in Tulsa as there is a blockage in the renal artery. Don't have the results of the stress test yet. Still just taking things easy. 🙂

Everything was a success last night for DD's birthday. I cooked all the meals from my "diet" menu I was a little concerned about Brother in law, who is not into "healthy" But he thoroughly enjoyed everything. Miss P had seconds of the Red Lentil, chickpea and sweet potato soup. Not a cup cake left LOL (carrot cupcakes with cream cheese icing)The orange and fennel chicken was a big hit too
Amber @amber1986 I rarely cook cakes etc I am not much of a sweet eater (Chocolates are a different thing entirely LOL) But decided to do these cupcakes. A little indulgent but healthy as well and not very sweet
Katie @fyrqueen I am glad you are on the mend now. Take care
Don @donscns and Carl @carma LOL ..where's your sense of adventure LOL shopping!! how could you not want to go shopping? LOL Just joking. I am not much of a shopper either. I get bored to tears when I am standing around waiting for my sister to decide on what shoes or dress or whatever she wants.
Marson @panishklo sounds fabulous!
Julie

@reen REEN … are you busy with your neighbor’s yard sale today? Hope the weather is good for you all.

@itsagas BILL … 400K listings is just ridiculous! What numbskull came up with that idea!

@wattleihavenext JULIE … sounds like a splendid birthday dinner and I know you all had a wonderful celebration.

@carma CARL … glad to hear you are getting a couple of days of decent weather. So far this week our temps have been 95, 95, 95, 94, 97…Heat index yesterday was 105. I think today we are a bit cooler….89 but with high humidity so the heat index will still be in the high 90s.

@amber1986 AMBER … great minds think alike! I spent all afternoon yesterday surfing ”free crochet patterns”. Terrific to have so much available on the internet.

@fyrqueen KATIE … Lyme’s Disease? sure sorry to hear you are ill. Hope the antibiotics take effect right away.

@10bbg10 HELEN … I slaved all day to ID the phurba! 😆 ROTFLOL 😆 Actually it took about 3 minutes. I googled ”3-sided knife” and then hit the ”IMAGES” tab… paged down one time and there they were. Now you know my secret. 🙂

@donscns DON … sounds like a wonderful time you all are having with what will be wonderful cherished memories. Hope you and GEORGE will have a chance to get together.

Well, today is my museum volunteer day. Since the museum is only 3 blocks away and is wonderfully airconditioned and absolutely quiet, it is even more restful than my house. The most work that has to be done is just me getting myself ready and presentable to go. 😀 I take my crochet and a magazine and just relax for the next four hours.

But our postman is a pretty special postman. I once said to him that for international a postal employee see the shipper. His res0nes was "But I see you all the time."

Pretty morning, but suppose to have possibility of storms later today...and mid to high 90s all this next week. 😮

@amber1986 AMBER ... No, this is a different Diane that we are remembering. She was a regular on the old eBay Glass Chat before the tragedy. Her eBay user id is "trulyfenton."

Last day of Autumn here and though it is chilly first thing, the sun is shining and we are in for yet another DDG day 🙂 I hope this continues through out the weekend because I am heading north up the coast to a Swapmeet tomorrow morning. Last year at this swap it didn't stop raining.
Amber @amber1986 & Betty @sjell Thank you for letting us know Shelly is OK
Janice @sunwoman3663 have you tried Natvia a natural sweetener http://www.natvia.com/ or Norbu http://www.weighitup.com.au/nutrition-and-health/1302/what-is-norbu
Both these sweeteners have been recommended and used in some of the recipes I follow on my "Diet"

Working on a new baby blanket for my West Coast grandkids.

@amber1986 AMBER ... Shelly posted twice just yesterday.

@baabaamason BOB in KY ... go to Replacements, see what they are selling the pitcher for, and cut the price in half.

@jerseystar NANCY P ... nothing definite on dates, but planning around the last 2 weeks of July to be on the East Coast. Haven't decided if I will fly or drive....leaning more toward driving. I really want to get over to see the WVMAG. Wondering, too, if there might be any glassies on the trek from NE Oklahoma to Washington, DC should I decide to drive. Actually going to Clarksburg, MD.

@reen REEN … wishing you all kinds of good luck today at your market! Hope the weather stays good and you have great sales.

@wattleihavenext JULIE … wow! it feels so good to get a bid right away. I just hate to have something languish all week and wonder if anyone is even looking at it.

@carma CARL … 8 days of rain would have me so depressed. I love rain…but I just couldn’t go that long without sunshine without it really making me low.

@amber1986 AMBER … I’ll mail your pattern tomorrow. I’m typing up some tips that I think will help keep the rows on track. Had my head spinning for a while and I finally wrote it all out and checked off the row numbers as I went along.

I got my second blanket finished except for tying off all the stray yarn where I made color changes. It’s kind of a blah blanket compared to the first one, but it’s for a little boy so I didn’t think I should decorate it so much with flowers and things.

Must go figure out what to wear to Church today. Something comfortable as there will be a marriage of an older couple and fellowship, cake, and champagne reception afterward. Should be fun.

@donscns DON ... Gosh, do you all ever get rain? What's your annual rainfall?

Been out all morning with my sister. We went to a market first thing and then to a restaurant for breakfast. Truffled mushrooms on sourdough for me YUM!!
Managed to buy a few bargains that hopefully I can make a decent profit. but NO GLASS

Message me with your snail mail address and I will send you the instructions for the blanket. I hope to finish today a different blanket I am doing for my little grandson.

@fyrqueen KATIE ... lovely mama cat. My indoor cats and my outdoor strays LOVE the cat snacks you can get in the little foil packets...Crispies ... Temptations. I've left trails so that they have to come close to me. They can't resist the snack. Takes a lot of time but after a while they will come closer. Eventually you could bait a wild animal trap/cage with the stuff.
I need to take a pic of my little stray that showed up lately. I've named him Frankie because he has such pretty blue eyes.

@donscns DON ... Has your summer vacation begun?

@wattleihavenext JULIE ... if you aren't comfortable with RARE how about SCARCE or HTF?

@shellyrae37 SHELLY ... I understand that the Red Cross donations don't necessarily go to the disaster specified. But when you think about it, the Red Cross can't wait to get the donations to help people. They have to have funds in their coffers so that they can help immediately...which they do. They are usually there before the last raindrop has landed.

Today is my "babysit the museum day". 🙂

Amber @amber1986 I know you love pics of Austalia, so here is a pic of my cousins property.They have a little cottage built right down the back of their property on a dam and we go there sometimes to "party" Beautiful spot and only about 10mins from my place.

@ohliz I love the Blue Mountains, such a DDG part of the world.
BTW if you can get here by July you are more then welcome to join us on the Great Ocean Road 🙂
Amber @amber1986 Arlie Beach Australia rates No. 3 as Traveller's Choice 2013 And
Turquoise Bay Exmouth comes in as #19. I have not been to either
Katie @fyrqueen I love my caller ID on my phone and also the feature where I can choose different ringtones for phone numbers in my phone book.So if I am not in the room and my phone rings I know by the tune if it is someone I know. If it is not a number I know I will not answer.

Amber @amber1986 Aus is such a varied place, DDG seaside to desert with nothing but red dirt for as far as the eye can see.And you can spend days and days of driving see nothing but flat ground covered in red dirt which gets very boring LOL Our beaches are rated as some of the best in the world, the coast is spectacular.

It is Thursday down here so that means Miss P day 🙂 It is school holidays so there will be no Gymberoo. So my plan for today to keep her busy, is to take her out to the aerodrome just a few mins from here and she can see the planes. She has never seen a plane close up & personal before , so I think this will be fun. Maybe if we are in luck the Tiger Moth will still be there.
Amber @amber1986 Yes I did see that video, thanks.
And while we are sharing our pics I'll share some I have taken on my big Wednesday walks.

The point out in the water is the Ocean Pool where I swim

I left 2 bids at an auction that was held Saturday night and I have to drive over to Afton and pick the stuff up at 10:00....no glass. One thing was an elliptical. Now lets see if I can find someone to get it out of the box and assembled....and then see if I will actually use it. 😆

Busy as a bee lately...laundry, dog grooming, bank twice, car lubed, vacuuming, pharmacy, groceries, errands for friend, cleaning out car (to make room for the elliptical I'm getting this morning), post office, flea meds for cats and dog, on and on and on, but that's all I can think of right now.

@wattleihavenext JULIE ... sorry you met up with some rain at your latest swap meet, but you always seem to make the very best of all occasions and have an enjoyable time with friends.

@fyrqueen KATIE ... I see you are home from your vacation. Hope the trip home was good and you aren't overworking now.

@nona NANCYJEAN... so good to see you back and posting!

@amber1986 AMBER ... wow, a new computer! What fun! want to hear all about it.

Good Morning to ALL glassies!

When all is said and done, I probably only drink a couple of cups a day. Regular in the morning, decaf later. I pour 1/2 cup and drink half of that … then go top it off to warm it up and sip on that.

Shelly @shellyrae37 continued positive thoughts for your DH
Amber @amber1986 Those pics I posted were from a swap meet I did a few years ago.And that particular swap was a huge success. I was flat out selling all day in the pouring rain. LOL It didn't seem to deter anyone.

I even managed to get 2 auctions listed on eBay, some tins from my collection, no glass sorry. I do have a little carnival glass footed bowl sitting here in front of me that I haven’t decided whether to list or pack for swap. I am in no hurry to part with it so it can wait till next week for me to make up my mind
Gail @songbreeze what a great story.
Amber @amber1986 Yes, it will be Autumn for us next month
Reen @reen I hope you feel better by tomorrow

My sister stopped by for coffee and a chat and I sent here home with a container of roast, potatoes, carrots and strawberry jello with bananas in it.

@wattleihavenext JULIE ... so glad the swap worked out well for you and the weather made a turn around.

@baabaamason BOB in KY ... I have Whitmyer's "Fenton Art Glass: 1907-1939" and "Fenton Art Glass Patterns: 1939-1980" but there are no lamps on page 250 so it must be a different book you are looking for.

I'm just into my "winter" mode and there isn't much I can do about it. I'll wake up in March.

@fyrqueen KATIE and @amber1986 AMBER ... I use Suave shampoo...have "Refreshing Waterfall Mist" right now. The only time I used a different shampoo was years ago when Vidal Sasoon had a shampoo that smelled like almonds. I just loved the smell so that was the only reason I bought it.

@10bbg10 HELEN ... Congratulations on the new GGS! Welcome to the world, Jack!

Her bloodlines are loaded with Champions - both parents & 3 of 4 grandparents have championship trophies & ribbons.

@shellyrae37 Shelly - she is great. Already runs to the back door when she needs to do her business. She is crate trained so the camper will be no problem. I am not anticipating any problems except for her exercise @ campground. May get a portable pen to keep her contained when I'm outside.

I would have my little window a/c going full blast on one side of me and the fan on the other.

@amber1986 AMBER … there are so many different strains of the flu virus that one strain cannot protect you against a different strain. That’s why alot of people take the flu vaccine but still get the flu…it’s a different strain that the vaccine.\

Someone called me on the phone at 10:20 and woke me out of the middle of a wonderful dream. Too groggy to reach for the phone and find out who it was, but I decided I was overdue to start the day so I got up anyway. Sitting here with first cup of coffee still in hand.

@reen REEN ... So very delighted to see you back! I haven't scrolled yet but do hope you had a wonderful holiday. We surely missed you.

@jmart8248 IRENE M ... so sorry to hear you and your DH have been so ill. I, too, had my flu shot very early...I believe October. The flu season started here very early. Whenever I've had any kind of shot...flu, cholera, typhoid...if I get a reaction to it...I figure I'm really lucky as the shot had to provide me with some protection and without the shot I probably would have gotten a worse case. Of course, the flu shot can't protect us from all the different strains of flu, but I still think it is grand to have it. We get our flu shots at WalMart.

@10bbg10 HELEN ... The Early American Pattern Glass Society is having their big national convention in Indianapolis in April. If I win the lottery I might go. 🙂 Sure hate to miss it, but I'm just not up to driving again and finding someone to watch all the furkids, etc. http://www.eapgs.org/EAPGS/top/annualconvention.htm#top

@amber1986 AMBER ... so very glad you got good results for the doggy. What kind of dog is it? Don't be too frustrated with animal organizations. If the dog is comfortably sheltered and fed, there is nothing they can do for emotional stress. Just as with children, some parents are too strict...some are too lenient, but that's quite a subjective call. One thought was if the animal orginizations couldn't step in, then perhaps the police could for the noise. However, you seem to have it all worked out and well deserve a big pat on the back.

Usually they are in the house but sometimes they do annoy us when we are trying to use our deck to visit friends . Some time ago the neighbor apologized for any night time annoyance
I told her that there was nothing to be concerned about as we removed out hearing aids when we went to bed. Or for that matter we don't hear them when we are inside.

I think that your neighbor was being contrary when she refused to let the dog come visit with you. Nice that you have a doorman who can keep watch to see if the dog is actually walked.

A little sun and a little cloud with a nice cool breeze blowing.
Amber @amber1986 I hope that all works out well for you, the lady and the pup. Hopefully she will see what a lovely caring lady you are and you can become friends so that she will trust you to having some time with the puppy. My neighbours trust me with their St Bernard. If they are away Mags comes in here with me. We actually made an opening in the side fence so she can come and go whenever she wants.

Amber @amber1986 Poor little puppy. Sounds like he is lonely and in need of some attention. Maybe if you approached the girl face to face and nicely told her the dog is crying all the time she is out and maybe even offer to have the little fella come stay a bit with you, so he had some company. You could also maybe offer to take him for a walk once a day, a nice long walk.
Some ppl don't realise that puppies need attention They don't think they are abusing them by not spending a lot of time with them. And of course she would never see this sad lonely side of the puppy cause I am sure when she does get home the pup is all excited to see her, so appears happy and content

Helen @10bbg10 I am glad you are feeling better abd getting back to routine.

re parting with things that belonged to our loved ones. Yes it is very hard As you all know I have been slowly selling off Dh's collections. It does get easier but it still breaks my heart everytime I decide what's
next to go. But I have to be realistic and it is what DH wanted. That was one of the reasons he collected, for our retirement to travel about and sell to supplement the income.So I am doing that dream.

It's old age catching up and her loss of interest in living, since Dad passed away 5 years ago.On Friday she will be transferred to a Respite nursing home, till there is a vacancy down here closer to us.She is in the right place where she can get around the clock care.And medical staff who have the know how , in getting her motivated and moving. I already see an improvemnt in her
