The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

[MouseDreaming]

It's difficult to sit still. We fly out of Philadelphia on Thursday at 8:30am. I keep on thinking of one more thing to do.....or one more thing to pack.

And I am late with the ketchup, but hope you are having a wonderful and relaxing time.

I was bored. When I get bored, I do weird things, like read the TSA's website. Found this...

Me:

I want the rest of the story!!!

What happened to the children’s father??? World is full of people that stepped out on the people they are, were married too.


Why did grandparents raise them not not the Dad?? Kinda appears both parents were “gems” along with the “gem” brother. Judgement Day in obits 2 more to follow? Thinking there is so much more to the story....of the gem lady was so guilty, what did the father do to easily walk away from his kids? Limited story kinda wreaks. Reminds me of current news. Blame the woman. Hang in there @catmom46 oy

That looks very good. All it needs is a steak with it.

Poor Jasmine...not a fan of fireworks. They're doing the annual ones near us. Her eyes are all wide.

That's very good. I also went to Target yesterday for laundry detergent, which I bought.

Along the way to the Tide aisle . . . I saw some blue chips and jars of salsa -- into the cart. Went a bit further and saw Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies -- into the cart. Passed by the frozen aisle and saw Ben & Jerry's chunky monkey ice cream -- into the cart. Got up to register and saw Doritos at the check-out -- into the cart.

OMG! I looked at all that food cooking on the grill/smoker and all I could think of was my small, Weber grill that might hold up to 6 pieces of chicken only! Then, I saw all the photos of the rellies and all the long tables in that big function room. Is your dad's side of the family, the entire state of Texas?

Hahaaa...!!!!!
No, it's actualy not even a big portion of the town, although there is a street in town that has our family name...!
There are indeed a lot of us though, but, we're kinda' al spread out across, yes, mostly, Texas..!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Great balancing act with the bone! As for the toy and sock nearby, that's like something Jack would do, too. And the more chewed up, dirty and disgusting--the more he likes them!

Yep, kinda' dog 101...!!!!!

Hoping for positive outcomes all around. It's hard to wait for a surgery date. It will be easier, once the surgery is over with.

Thank you all the kind members who have reached out to me. It demonstrates to me anyhow some of genuinely awesome people on this thread.

As I've posted before, I fractured the knuckle on my left hand ring finger when I was about 11, swinging at an inside pitch. It was the first knuckle right at my hand. Wasn't even a full break, and they put a small plaster cast on me just past my wrist.
When I split my calcaneus bone on the end of a diving board when I was 13 they put me in a plaster cast from my toes all the way up my entire leg.
Guess they're just tryin' to err on the safe side and make sure it's fixed right the first time, maybe...?

I guess. I think maybe because the bone wasn't aligned correctly and they had to reset it, maybe they wanted to make extra sure it wasn't going anywhere? We'll all be glad when he gets this cast off next week though!!! He'll finally be able to dress himself again. Last night, he says "You know what sucks? I have to wait until one of you is awake before I can get dressed!" (He's generally an early riser)

Nothing so hard. The only worrysome part is, the quake was VERY CLOSE to where the big 7.8 hit us in 1995

Infact, the quake was upgraded to 8.0 I did not know..

*edit*
Here is the Mexican Seismology Center information.. there were a ton of very small afterchocks, but nothing that could be felt over here.

Yikes. Let's hope that's the end of it.

Poor Jasmine...not a fan of fireworks. They're doing the annual ones near us. Her eyes are all wide.

A few have gone off in my area as well -- I'm sure the fools are testing their stash, with the BIG night coming up. Oh joy, oh joy . . . NOT. Jack hates fireworks and shakes like a leaf. He scratches at the bedroom door to be let in, so that he feels safer in there (there's a little corner that he goes to for "protection", in his dog mind).

I think I've died from the hot weather we are having this week.

Supposed to be 97 here today....36 Celsius

With Toys'R'Us closing, I'll post a commercial you will never hear again. Really, they were their own downfall though.

I'm staying in Air conditioning today. It feels like 107 degrees outside according to the weatherman.

Good thing, some of the food for 4th of July already was bought before today. Ribs, Sweet Potato Fries and dessert already bought.

Somebody turned the A/C on here last night I thought I was going to freeze to death

The like was for sharing the commercial. I'm going to miss TRU

No need to move it, just have it built there...!!!

Even better I have a nice small lot in mind

You're hoping I'm unwell?

I prefer to think of you as unwell. The only explanation for using the W word this time of year is evil or severe problems.
