Milligan was an nice little kitty, even if he was an thief...he knew what counts with the owners. Hve an good time Ruth...house is yours for an bit so enjoy it. Do them proud when your friends return from vacation.

I gained 6 pounds over the weekend an have lost about 5 of it right now I think. Defineately four as of the wee hours of this morning.  I have since yesterday changed sissy room around here at my house..into

Royal Purple/white/lime green amid the pink here an there. Christmas-ized it also. I just finished off three small sacks to take with us to the Oregon Garden for the kids..small trinket type gifts...book light, popcorn, prezel sticks and cheese, small Christmas puzzles, Instant Hot Chocolate, Christmas pens with an small notebook...some metal things,ones an airplane and the other is an robot looking thing) for the boys to make, and butterfly book novelty...you put it in an book and when you open it up..off flies this paper butterfly, Christmas chocolates in an small decorated box. Christmas Stockings. (not the kind that you hang). I'll have to see if I can find anything else. Maybe an cheapy wallet or some such...fingernail clippers..magazines/books. Rest of it comes on Christmas Day I guess you might know. So..time to relax an bit cause they will be in here Friday night for the Holloween PIzza bash.Raining now, but yesterday day was sunny and an good walking day for me, got in my four miles. Waiting for the full lipid profile tests to return..not just the Ac1 by itself. The democratic party sent us out "voting" report cards....they told me I'm "excellant" as I've voted in the last three out of four elections. They probably zapped us with HARRP is why I never made it on the fourth election...trying to control the outcome on it in some way. Freedom is an joke these days sometimes. Talk later on...

Good afternoon. The sun came out this afternoon James, so we were able to walk from where we are into town and back across the beach. It's about 3 mile there and back, helped by low tide which cuts quite a chunk off the journey. Having said that sand is harder to walk on than the coast path.

It's turned a bit grumpy here too now Pat, the tide seems to be bringing the mist and drizzle back in with it, and it's not high tide for a few hours yet.

Yes, what is it with the tides in Ireland?...reddit.com did an before and after picture of low tide and high tide there...with an kind of connotation that when they have high tide, it's really an high tide...as there wasn't any beach where prior it looked like 1/2 an mile out in the ocean. They sounded like you had better beware of the tides when you get there maybe....and play it safe.  We have that happen over on the west coast occasionally, but the thing of it over here is the driftwood comes in, those large tree trunks have pinned down more then one person and killed them in the process. They claim is only takes an few inches of incoming tidal waters to float an 1/2 ton tree trunk into shore during an storm over here. Myself, I'd rather be up high and in front of an crackling fireplace.... watching the storm.... out of an window. Then go beachcombing afterwards, when your more apt to see what the storm brought in. Like my "japanese" float, it's honestly an laugh...it turned out to be an real japanese light bulb..and we all had an good laugh about that, but my hubby brought home the real thing from an scout outting..where there's an private beach, probably worth $50...$100 in resell..though he wouldn't part with it for love nor money. Oct-Nov use to be over here" prime" storm watching days in the past. So I ask you guys...where's the underground golf course these days along the beach...Heh?...the one that rain storms never stop? Under the sky above you...nice and dry. First time I went to Lake Tahoe...I'd never played mini-golf before...I played so bad they gave me an complemetary round to play again for free. I said to hubby, what do you do?, he says "hit the ball" so I whacked it and it really went an long ways, just like on TV and he's shaking his head "no no no...not that hard...you have to follow the designated path the ball has to take to go through the course...... Everyone's laughing their heads off at me. Hey she'd make an good championship player. That's why I get stuck going on the Fitness Trail at Gendoveer over playing golf I guess...it's an gruesome 2 mile walk at times for me also.  I kind of think I'd like driving an small golf cart though. They really don'  thave any street signs, but I think with someone with me, guiding me, I couldl maybe do that part. I just bought my son an cup that you can plug into your cigarette lighter and its got 5 different heat settings...I also got hsi front seatcover for the truck..mats.  He's also getting an bar of soap...kind of pricey...but as you wash down the soap you win some money...can be $1, $5, $10, $20, or $50....I think him and his wifey could make good use of washing down together in an shower at the Oregon Garden maybe...after going to the lounge for an couple of cocktails in their restruarant.  Anyway, I had best go for now. I am waiting for the mail to come in today before I go walking. I should of gotten the rest of the lipid profile tests if they what they said is the truth...that they took them...same day as the blood draw. Should see pretty soon on that one. She said they would mail them out by the 27th or 28th most likely. I signed to have them sent to me also.
