COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Thanks Cathie, Rose was happy. I don't know if you can hear her but she was coaching me the whole time. She learned a lot from my previous therapy.

Yes. I could hear your best coach.

Greetings, my kayaking partner and I were able go get out & enjoy some fresh air, sun & water today! A bit breezy on the open water, but nice in the coves. Spotted a few Bald Eagles, a juvenile bald eagle, tons of herons & ospreys! All the migrating ospreys have returned from their Spring break down south. We did a little less than 10 miles before the winds picked up. Water is still cold, but warming.

Looks like a personal sanctuary!

P.S. If it IS Sunday -- and that's a big "if" -- then Happy Easter! (Today's the Orthodox one.)
Here's what I made for y'all. I'll send Montgomery around with tea, coffee, or something stronger.

It all looks good but I’m thinking the eggs are pretty cool!

Here's some pictures of the little grand that was trying to be a December baby. But decided to hang in there long enough.

I haven't seen Oli for a while. But It's always fun when I do. Today as usual, I was trying to get out of shopping but found myself doing it anyway. I'm glad I did. I got most of what I needed without a line. Even tp and paper towels.☺

Ok here is the first time on my new leg. I used the walker with the arm platform because I knew I would be a little on stable. You can see I am learning to hard on the walker.
As I get comfortable walking. I will use my prosthetic arm also and not put to much weight on Waller. Also need to stand up straighter.

It's neat that my latest favorite song comes up after when I play your video. I don't know if it's just something on my phone or if it comes up on other's also. As far as that other part goes, all I can say is "you hid it well!" Even Rose evidently didn't notice.??

I think southern Ohio temps are fairly close. But southern Ohio does get ripe tomatoes and such sooner then where I am. I kinda think their underground temperature gets warmer sooner though. The black plastic could hold in the warmth gained by the sunshine through early spring days. Another thing I found out about melons, and such is that removing suckers is really important. Also once a plant gets a couple or so baby melons, don't allow it to keep trying to reproduce. That way it can concentrate everything to it's fruit. Hopefully, I'm not saying something you already know because I wish you success☺

How do you stop it from reproducing?

 

[CarolM]

Yes I like that recording too. I know I'm half nuts or cracked but if a song gets in my head I'm done for. And everyone else is too. I'll have to hear it for days on end until I get my fill. And I'm a gluten sometimes when it comes to music.

LOL, I am exactly the same.

Now you guys are just teasing me ? because I am in a locked down state, I couldn't even get donuts, here nobody is open, boo for me,

Maybe you can get week old donuts at 7-11?

I have 2 tomato plants that get water from the drain tube from the A/C.
I never fertilized so the plants never were robust. We get like 6 average size tomatoes a week. They are over a year old. Not sure how long they will continue.

After you dehydrated did you freeze them?

We where supposed to get snow yesterday, had a few snow flurries, but not much, and today, 50, whatever Michigan, so bipolar

Still here in Maryland, waiting for @Ray--Opo to fix that new shed up so that we can move in. Sully is our lil monster, doing well. I’m waiting for temps to increase so we can move her out side! Too heavy to easily lift now. I’m guessing about 80 lbs now. We’ll weigh her on the move outside. Nice to hear from u.

What colors do you want me to paint the interior?

 

[Ray--Opo]

How much you wanna bet Rose remembers every word they said? Slow and steady like a tortoise.

Oh yes, we have restored/ remodeled 2 homes. She was such a quick learner. She is a very detailed person.

When I was getting tired I was not standing up straight. She kept reminding me to straighten up.?

 

[jeneliza]

Nope,

Nope, not that desperate, yet, anyway, I can always do the big store donuts , but there just not the same as fresh donut shop donuts, pre fried, frozen then baked, just isn't the same,

What a cutie. Remember to keep the humidity at 80%. Don't want any pyramiding. ?

Good morning all and HAPPY FRIDAY! I can actually say that there is a difference in the weekdays vs weekends... working from home is still work... and really annoying with a 6yr old and school lessons too... I’m praying that it doesn’t rain all weekend.. I need to be outside!!! Lol..

Good Morning, And I completely skipped the weekend for CDR and we are now back on Monday. And our weather is overcast and gloomy. I love it.
