Bye all. I'm not sure how much nonpark Wi Fi we'll have so I may or may not be able to get on much while we're gone. Have and excellent August!

I will miss you.

It hasn't rained much for the past two weeks and tonight's the first band show of the year....we're under a thunderstorm watch.

Yep, there's not a windshield (windscreen for those in the UK ) on any of our 3 vehicles that doesn't at least have a chip out of it.

Agree, we get them winter and summer.

I wish I could like this a bizillion percent. We didn't have time to get a Margarita, in UNI, son in law was driving, it was hot; and he was in a hurry to get to the car. Maybe this time in October. Just hubby and I, I plan to take a cab. I would use uber, but hubby is very stubborn about that.

A little but it was late model cars, not the coupe's. I loved the old cars... we used to call them the ground pounders. Every bone in your body would rattle as they went by.

I still love the old cars. As I've said before sister, older than me, had an Oldsmobile 98, convertible. That was a fun fast car....we could get it up to 95 mph in no time. Foolish and lucky kids we were. This was on a two lane road.

Disneyland is already building Star Wars Land or at least in final preparations to build it.

Does anyone else watch Girl Meets World. be kind, if you don't like the show. I sure hope Lucas finally declares his choice between Maya and Riley. I love Farkle, and Corey and Topanga are as sweet as ever. I heard that the show is being cancelled. I hope not, because I really enjoy it.

Did you see they remade it?

My husband and I decided against putting a huge fish tank in our living room. Instead we are looking at birds tomorrow, at the pet store where my grandson works. They got in some blue parakeets, and my grandson isn't sure if the yellow birds were canaries, or yellow parakeets. He was too busy today putting up stock to pay much attention to the birds. I'm not really a pet person, but I thought a few birds would be nice. My husband is a wonderful pet owner, but he is leaving up the choice of birds to me.

Try calling in the calivery. In all seriousness. You've met a great deal of individuals through your conventions. Reach out to them. Ask about an advocate given how the terms and dates were not posted in a manner in which it would be expected that you would be fully aware of the timeline. Contact as many people as you can possibly reach out to. Find out who donors are too to the cause and research. Reach out to them too.

I am going tro try that, I also contacted a way higher up dude who went to the convention and talked directly.
Lets see what he says.
I do not have my hopes very high. As someone mentioned that Cochclear Australia (the factory) stopped producing my model, hence why its obsolete and considered "trash" now.

Technically this company isnt greedy. the Mexican side IS.
Wishing they could budge just for a bit. I mean its been only ONE MONTH since the deadline
