Good morning ~  Glad you enjoyed your perfect ride walker.  I feel your frustration with the CS and not understanding much of anything.  Why wouldn't the company realize that this is not helping at all.  The joys of modern technology........

How's the trip coming?  Any word yet?  I'll bet the house feels strange!  

Sorry the new helper didn't show up kittyfan.  Maybe it's just as well you found out about her before she was placed.  Sorry about your experience at the Cafe.  It must be tough all around.  The pie sounds delicious and the people are wonderful as you have mentioned several times.  Hoping they can get through this.

Tootie, thinking of your Mimosas and am now ready to hop on the MGR ~

Riding Sammy Sea Horse today. He loves Velveeta!  It must be the color! I wonder if he likes Mimosas?   He and his older brother, Stuart, collect Starfish and Conch shells and have quite a nice collection between them.

Good morning friends ... we are at a cool 70 degrees right now ... our high for today will be 80 with thunderstorms ...

walker, how aggrevating!! ... that's kind of strange that your DS can't get through to you ... and I don't blame you for not wanting to follow the directions of CS to unplug this and unplug that ... press this ... do that ... sorry you have to go through that but it's good that you can still talk using your cell phone ... hope all went well with the Adventure ...

Hi to kittyfan and hope all is going well ...

cookie, Sammy is one smart Sea Horse ... he likes VELVEETA!! haha!! ... today I think I'll ride the Otter ... I spotted him by Sammy ... round and round and round we go!!

We had a beautiful breeze last night for our bike ride ... lots of people were out ...

Have a good day ... pouring and passing.

Y ~ Yes! I'll take the Xtra Hot Fudge ...

Good Morning Friends!  🇺🇸😷

I'm getting real slow in my "ME ONLY" time here....moving at my own pace....what will I be like after 10 days? Stay tuned....

My travelers had a good day yesterday ....made it to mid- Nebraska for the night.  DH sounded tired last night but he'll get into the routine.....first two days were the two longest travel days so they could do more things out west.  They will be in Wyoming tonight.  They are trying to take in state capitols too....yesterday I got two pictures of boys in front of Iowa and Nebraska state capitols.  DS has been doing this with boys wherever they travel.

Tonight and tomorrow I will have a dinner date....my GD! 😁 DD and SIL will be at baseball game with GS.  I have to pick GD up from gymnastics and stay with her until they return.

Tootie, our bike rides....especially with breeze...sound delightful at end of day!   Did you ever hear back from cardiologist on test results....her conclusion?  Corona Anxiety?  Has it gotten better?

But, time to get on the MGR or mimosas may be gone....Sammy and Ollie look thirsty.  cookie, you brighten our day with the pictures you find!  Since we are into "water" friends today...I will pick Winifred ...aka Winnie...the Whale..🐳...we will have a WHALE of a good time....🤣.

Happy Wednesday!

A ....Apple Fritters....yummy

Hello walker - This is Wilma, Winnies twin sister.  Winnie is away at a special event and could not make it.  Winnie and Wilma are exactly alike in just about everything.  They love giving out Whale kisses - watch out!

Sounds like the boys are having a good time.  Cute idea to photgraph the boys in the Capitol cities - a lifelong memory in the making.  Enjoy your "date" with your GS and GD and their parents.  Keeping our Queen busy.

Hello ... happy to hear that the travelers had a good day ... and how fun that your DS gets pics of them in the states capitols ... that is a great idea!! ... and now you get to enjoy two dinner dates with your GD ... it sounds like a win-win all around!! ... Winnie sounds like another fun ride ...

Since my cardiologist office is a "no call" (after testing) office, I'm assuming "no news is good news." When I had my stress test I asked the nurse if eveything looked ok. She said, "if I saw any issues, I would not let you leave" she also mentioned being a "no call" office. I'm not particularly crazy about that but I guess that's how they like to operate. The doctor mentioned when I saw her that palpitations can happen from any food or any time of the day (mine were very hard an hour after dinner.) But go figure, when I wore the monitor, I had none!! When I had mine I would get up and walk around, which helped them go away. The doctor said they were probably from stress and anxiety. I agree!! And I have had very few since then ... probably because I know that there is nothing else wrong.

Sorry this is so long ... it would be much easier to discuss on the MGR or over the phone ... if only ...

cookie, I love Ollie, he looks so fun and playful.

Tootie, I totally agree with your conclusions about testing, etc, and "no call offices"...different times!!  I think you and I both had anxiety issues causing palpitations.  Mine have pretty much passed too.  I remember it happening mostly back in March/April when I was uptight about going to store and wearing the darn mask!  I have finally relaxed about it....this way of life is here to stay ....for awhile.  Ugh!  Whenever I am out and see people in masks I just shake my head....I can't believe we are living like this!!!

cookie, thanks for finding Wilma for me....away we go.....see you all later......we need to talk more..😂.....yes, wish I could pick up phone, Tootie....or we could have Zoom meetings....haha!  

Zooming out of here....Q website gives me trouble when I babble too much here...🤣.

Hi friends .... well my dinner date with GD was cancelled because GS's baseball game was cancelled.  So DD can pick GD up from gymnastics.  I think we are still on for tomorrow night.

Today I decided to clean out the toy stuff grandkids play with when they are over.  I sorted the LEGO sets and will keep them.  I put pieces in bags so they can remake.  Some stuff needs to go though.  BUT....my big dilemma is BEANIE BABIES!!! I must have 100+.  I was part of the crazy buyer group back in 90's...ha.  I am not going on eBay..some are on there at insane prices.  Oh well, not sure...but, not just dropping off at Goodwill.

Bye for now.....have a good evening.

D .... Dill

Good morning ~  walker, sorry about your canceled date - there's always tomorrow.  It's amazing what you can do when you are left alone.  Boy!  You sure do/did have a lot of Beanie Babies!!!  My oldest DS still collects and does Lego.  As close as he lives to Legoland - he doesn't go often.

Mammogram this morning.  Hopefully they will be on time.  Last time I had to wait too long.  I usually don't mind waiting - Kindle is great- but more than 30 minutes is a bit too long. 

We will enjoy 98 today and are already 79.  We have twin frogs in the back now.  I found them luxuriating in the large dog water bowl.  They left when I turned on the light.  DD says there are many on the front patio - one is very fat or pregnant .  

Time to get on the MGR for a short ride until I have to leave - then I plan to ride all day!  I will enjoy Bainbridge the beautiful black colt.

I like his attitude!  He is originally from UK and whinnies with an accent!  Very proper he is.  Wonder if he knows Her Majesty and will try one of Tootie's Mimosas?

Good morning friends ... walker, I hope you are able to have your dinner date tonight ... I bet both kids were disappointed ... no game and no dinner with grandma ... wow, you do have a lot of Beanie Babies!! ... we started buying them for DD when she was little and she still has all of hers!! (not as many as you though ... and hers are still here!!) I put them all in one of those bags where you can vacuum the air out and put it on a shelf in the closet ... I wouldn't give to the Goodwill either.

cookie, good luck this morning. I agree, 30 minutes waiting is a bit long but I'm thinking that maybe with all that is going on they'll move a little more quickly ... and if I ever found frogs on the patio I would freak out ... I do not like frogs!!

kittyfan, hope you are well ... maybe trouble signing on again?

Hopping on the MGR ... today I will ride the Hippo ... round and round and round we go ... Bainbridge is a beautiful horse.

Have a good day ... we'll be sunny with a high of 81 ... pouring and passing.
