You see, the little bear is swaying to your music :)
Thank you for thoughtful birthday greeting. Summer sent one too. I see you sent me a nice birthday cake too. I'll need a cup of coffee to go with that. lol. Do you remember I like coffee with sweets?
Just wanted to mention that the site is having one of those page contests again. This time it's fall/Halloween pages. I never enter, but I always vote. I enjoy seeing how others decorate their pages. Whoever wants to enter, has to enter by tomorrow (the 18th). I believe the voting starts on the 20th thru the 25th. I know you're not interested, but just wanted to mention it. Mostly just wanted to put a note on your page.
These summer time holidays are just another day to me. I don't care for them at all, but I always acknowledge them anyway.
Here at the site, Altara asked if I would enter the Fall/Halloween contest. I'm a bit nervous about it. I always vote on these type of contests, but I never actually enter. Over Christmas there was a contest on Christmas pages. I didn't enter, but I voted on which page I liked best. Of course, there are no prizes. I guess it's just an honorary kind of thing, I guess.
Nothing new here - same old, same old things. I am glad that August is over and I say good riddance to it. I have no sentimental feelings for summer and humidity. The only time I ever liked summer is when I was a kid and that was only because we got 3 months off from school. lol. I remember being miserable with the high humidity back then too. And we had no a/c in those days. Back then I spent a lot of time outside doing kid stuff and I remember feeling sticky hot and being itchy from mosquito bites. No fun at all. I usually spent many of the real hot days at the swimming pool. That was the only way to keep cooled off and to keep the mosquitos away. UGH..
I had to wade through a lot of graphics to see the end of your page. lol. You have some nice pumpkins here. I like pumpkins. I think my little mouse would like these pumpkins too. I can picture him hiding behind them :)
I didn't forget :-) What have you been doing these days? We're getting closer to Fall.. August is now half over.. The closer it gets, time will start racing by.. That happens every year.. The summer seems to drag by, then once cooler weather gets here, time seems to race by.. It hasn't cooled down yet, but at least we're getting closer.
Did those roofers ever call you about coming to your place? Maybe it would best if it was postponed until September or October..
Whatever happened to your friend Carrie?
She's missing from your page..
I'll bet it's hot in Chicago. We had a storm on Friday night with lightning.. The power went out and we lost our cable and internet too. It was out for few hours..
Well, I guess we'll have another hot and miserable weekend.. Take Care xx Darlene
Here is some ice cream for us. I'll take the pink one. lol. Did you ever taste teaberry ice cream? We go for ice cream twice a week. Last week they had a flavor called teaberry. I remember teaberry gum, but never had teaberry ice cream. Anyway, the ice cream is pink in color and it's quite tasty. Didn't know if I would like it or not, but it's very good.
How is your roofing project coming along. Did those roofers get started yet? Are you having problems with your roof leaking anywhere?
Here's a little something I thought might cool us off. lol. Sure wish I could look out the window and really see this. Oh well, I guess it will come soon enough. It's nice to look at, especially when it's this hot..
Just stopping by to wish you a pleasant holiday weekend. I started my countdown to fall on June 1st. Now it's one down two more to go. I know September is hot too, but once I get to that point, I know I'm sliding down the backside of summer. July and August are the two worst months..
I see your page is part winter and part Valentine's Day.. I still have winter.. Can't seem to let go of winter.. I wish we could go back to December 1st..
Good evening.. We got about 5 inches of snow last night.. We haven't had much snow this winter at all.. I think the 5 inches we just got is the most we had all season.. Normally, all the snow goes everywhere else, but doesn't come this way.. Just like Buffalo got 5 feet a few weeks ago.. None of that snow hit here.. Buffalo is a little north of where I live, but it completely missed us.. I suppose it all depends where the jet stream is carrying it to.. Darlene
Good evening - We haven't had much snow here at all this winter.. I think it went everywhere around us but kept missing this area.. I wish we could go back and start out all over again with October 1st ..
