Good job Connor. Be smart, make good choices, be a leader!Getting ready to head to bed. I'm starting another semester of college tomorrow.
Much success Connor B .Getting ready to head to bed. I'm starting another semester of college tomorrow.
My guess she is swamped with getting back to work full time at school.Where has skimom2 been?? Have I just missed her posts?
I wondered if that was it.My guess she is swamped with getting back to work full time at school.
she was lurking after midnightI wondered if that was it.
Howdy Folks, I couldn't wait until September. I've been lurking from time to time but am glad to be back. Hello to all old and new members. I am hoping to see the Dark Tower this weekend if all goes well. Even after reading all of those lackluster reviews and box office results. Everyone's a critic...All the best, Mal.
By golly Holly I hope you had a wonderful day. If you walk across hot coals remember to go lightly. All the best, Mal.
Hi Holly, I was away from the computer but, other than that, I've been leading quite an unremarkable life! The wife has been sick for a long while now and is awaiting surgery. It was supposed to be by end of July or early August but has now been postponed until Sept/Oct (who knows). Hopefully sooner than later. I've been working on a book for the last while and with perseverance and a good work ethic I have about 250 pages left to read. One interesting thing comes to mind. I was out camping with my grandson and, just on the edge of our campsite, there was what looked to be a stuffed crow sitting on a branch of a tree. I stared for a bit and he didn't move. After we set up the tent and camp I noticed it again in exactly the same state and position. I was walking to take a closer look when all of a sudden another crow landed beside the first one and cawed at it a few times. The first crow weakly cawed back and I thought it was either sick or old. It seemed old. A third crow joined the first two with food in it's beak and proceeded to feed the old or sick crow. It amazed me to see crows take care of their sick or elderly. I pointed this out to my grandson and we both watched this unfold. I told him that is natures way and I'd be coming to live with him when I was older and he had to take care of me. He never knows if I'm kidding or not (and that's just the way I like it). We went hiking and when we came back the crows were gone. Oh yeah, one more thing I thought of...they were three days late picking up my recycling last week. The whole household was thrown for a loop. All the best, mal.Our pal Mal has returned! Blessed be! What interesting things have happened to you whilst you were todash?
And thanks for the birthday rhyme!
I hope your wife's surgery will be soon and I'm sorry she has been unwell for so long. The camping trip sounds wonderful and I laughed out loud when you described telling your grandson that this would be his lot....

Sending good thoughts for your wife's surgery. Nature provides for nature. May you be well.Hi Holly, I was away from the computer but, other than that, I've been leading quite an unremarkable life!

Thanks Flake!I hope your wife's surgery will be soon and I'm sorry she has been unwell for so long. The camping trip sounds wonderful and I laughed out loud when you described telling your grandson that this would be his lot.... Brilliant.
It's lovely to have you back, Mal.
Thank you Spideyman!Sending good thoughts for your wife's surgery. Nature provides for nature. May you be well.
Thank you Holly!Prayers and positive vibes for your wife. I hope the surgery happens soon and goes well.
Wow - those crows! I've never seen that happen. I'd never have thought crows were such compassionate caretakers. Sweet! I have noticed that Mr. Cardinal will feed Mrs. Cardinal sometimes.
LOL on the recycling. I understand. When we have a Monday holiday, it throws the garbage pick up schedule off a day and it's unsettling and chaotic.
