Re: August 2015 - Back Fence

Good Morning Back Fencers.  I am enjoying a day off courtesy of my employer.  Once you make 15 years of service at my company, you receive a paid birthday holiday :-).  Yesterday was my birthday, so I've made a long weekend of it by taking Friday as vacation and today as my birthday holiday.  It's been a relaxing 3 days so far and I'm watching morning local news while mentally making my to-do list for the day. 

 

Here are some fritatas - veggie and bacon.  Help yourself.

 

 

 

There are many elements: wind, fire, water
But none quite like the element of surprise

Re: August 2015 - Back Fence

Gotta say this. When I got to the boards and BEFORE I signed in I noticed the posts had DATES and TIMES. I thought FINALLY, yesterday, today, 10 minutes ago, etc had disappeared and dates had returned. Well I signed in and guess what returned and what disappeared. The DATES disappeared and the minutes, yesterday,weeks, etc have returned. How dumb!!!

Am getting estimates for painting downstairs and stairs/hall,plus carpet for main and bedroom level, AHH, just the thought makes me tired.to say nothing of crying over our check book.

Re: August 2015 - Back Fence

Epi, I think there are quite a few of us who are NOT on the best of terms with this revised board. Drives me insane and extermely frustrating.

 

Happy BD Birdmama. I think I have stopped having any. LOL.

 

Super hot today and probably more of the same tomorrow. Just do NOT like this triple digit weather.

 

Epi, I just looked at this crazy board and while thinking, this message comes up in front of me." Sorry, I can't perform whatever you requested". It just disappeared while I was typing so cannot recall what the word was where I put whatever. What can I say.

 

Hope all had a great day.

So sorry we didn't know it was your birthday and hope it was as special as the one we'll have here at the back fence. I brought some homemade ice cream and a black forest cake with one candle on it. Happy birthday, Bernie and wishes for many, many more!.

Re: August 2015 - Back Fence

Can't believe this weather in August.  Sweater weather for sure.   Bernie your birthday almost got past us but not quite. This way we can extend the celebration.  Today is hearing aid fitting. Hope I don't drop them out of my ear in the bathroom or something. Wonder if that happens to people.  I'm pretty awkward.

I also get that message with practically every post.  I have no idea what it means and think it's just a glitch.
