It's probably from the low presssure the hurricane is producing Cathy. You nice and safe where your at? Kind of getting down to the hours you either bug out... or stay..and if you stay...be prepared. Keep in touch with us here.

I have my grandson here and he stayed up most all night long on my computer...and I listened to "Coast" and Linda Moulton Howe...she's always interesting. Was hot last night anyway...it's 87 per cent humidty here right now and rain cells have deveoped and are going up the west side of Mt. Hood. Hubby callled off his "trip" this weekend, my son went through the area and said it still has snow from last winter on it...and they have rain over there also in the mountains now.We were up on some kind of storm warning thing last night east side Portland to just over the ridge of the Cascade Mts in central Oregon. I didn't walk yesterday...but my ankles are not as swelled up today so far either...that's good. I go for now...

Ive just popped in to say hi to every one and hope all are well and fit

Hi shaun.....Nice to see you using "big" words at your age...your teacher would be PROUD....just kidding...and how are things going with you?

I took my grandson to his house...they carted of off our boat yesterday, to play with it an bit here soon on the river.. and she said they had thunderstorms last night and this morning and it's sitting out front uncovered..wait till I tell hubby. I think they make it an habit of anything we buy them..... they don't take care.... at our expense. I watched my grand-daughters cousin offer an $100 if she'd pick up her clothes off the floor in her room...she refused. That's why the doc says to let them go without...which is "stupid" also in ways. It should not have to be they are on thier last bit of clothing to where it's all they have to wear. Maybe some day they show some responsibilty?

Huuricane in barely into North Carolina and has dropped wind to 100 mph...I don' think its going to get as bad as they thought it was...but guess that remains to be seen as of yet.I go for now...I'm looking all over for Gonal's addy...anyone can email it to me...so I can conitnue on with the receipe mailers. Ron? Cathyml? Anyone?
