Good Morning Ronald --hows things with you to-day.Smile??

Hi James - had problems with emails and the provider. It seems Orange might have flagged up my account as a spammer, probably because I send out quite a few emails with my Pest Control Price Comparisons site www.PestControl-Supermarket.com and they don't like it.

After being with them for 15 or more years I have got news for you Orange - I don't like it either and there are other providers waiting for my business, so your days are numbered!

I wish "Dancing with the Stars" could see the two little professional dancing kids on tv this morning...very good...and so tiny also. Channel 12 news. Enjoy your grandaughter Jackie while $10 takes care of about anything instead of an $100. Sissy's birthday is the 21st...so I have to go to the bank to get her the $100. She already knows its for school clothes next fall probably. But she is of age where her mother an her can share a few items, which helps. Ron, people all down the California coast line are reporting black outsof cell phone service last couple of days...they thought maybe this lastsolar distrubance perhaps. We have one in the last two days that grew to four times the size of earth being carefully watched, if it sends out an flare it's headed to earth for an direct hit. So far it's been acting an bit tamer. Hello Cathyml...hope your day is going well also.  Rember when the girls all wore sexy boots and mini-skirts?Peggy you should of gotten yourself some boots back then. I also remeber galoshes, that fit over your shoes..everyone had them, not so now..just don't see stuff like that any more I guess. Suppose to rain here but by early next week sunshine and we might see our first day in the 80 degree range...whoopie! Most of last night was the news about the Texas Fertilier Plant explosion...said it leveled about 5 surrounding blocks of houses and businesses...still incoming on that one. Since firefighter's were there already fighting the fire that had started...before the explosion.. they figured the death toll will raise on it also. Some spring we are having over here this year. Ibest be going..have things to do and places to go... and all that jazz.

Have an good day everyone!

Richard...upper levels of Mt. Hood have been having snow pretty much when you have been, they released today that the Snow Pack up on the mountain was 93 per cent "normal" for the year and hasan 56 per cent moisture content to it all. By next week we may get our first 80 degree day outside. Now we need moderate temperatures so it slowly melts throughout summer. As far as I know we still export most of this snow melt off down into California and toward your way also...desert SW reseviors to keep them filled in summer time. To much here an it simply floods and goes out to sea, not really doing anyone any good over all.

I got maxed out today shopping...hubby came home found me asleep and let me sleep for two hours. I went bargain hunting and found them, bought my kids an outdoor bench seat and another matching outside patio table....and sissy clothes for her birthday. Balloons and some fun stuff to hang on her walls.My check came in so besides the birthday's I started saving for this year property taxes again...it will take me months on my little Social Security Check...say about 5 months. If I do this now...I will be into Sept and have to pay them by mid November. Anything else will be going for Christmas it looks like for now. Can I say it first...this "Sucks" for the most part.I have to find next to "free" anything... to get through all this now. This week went fast...people are saying the water the firemen used in fighting the fertilizer fire is probably what caused the blast in Texas.

Have an good evening everyone.....

Good morning..Sun shinning here.55F, lm going to spend  day in greenhouse sowing toms,kale,herbs, lettuce,cuc and anything else that should have been sown in March.Hubby works all day out- doors so lm always interested in the local weather.Everything is late growing in the garden, but will all catch up,Tulips coming into bud and massives of tiny yellow violas everywhere..Watched a cheeky grey squirel that next door puts nuts out for, climb over the fence and promptly buries them in my plant pots by my back door.Robin came to visit early yesterday evening but only rested on shed to look around.Hubby asked for Liver&Bacon for tea,not cooked that in 20 yrs so cheated and bought one as a ready meal.Will be making Hereford Dished Onion Crisps,recipe from a 1935 farmerswife cookbook.as l dont like liver. .Hubby liked the Tewksbury Saucer Batter pud yesterday, it turned out to be a fluffy meringue desert,not to my liking though..Box full of products arrived for me to test and write reviews so busy weekend.Found a You Tube channal that has loads of History of.England vids,so will be catching up tonight with those.Hope you all have a lovely day.Jackie.
