I was talking to my 94 year old mother on the phone while I watching the game when the whistler suddenly sounded. She asked me what that noise was. LOL. I explained it - She thought it was ridiculous.

Beautiful! My Dad wrote my brother and I each a similar letter a number of years ago and mailed them to us. He said many things, including how my mother and us kids had made his life worth living. It is beautiful. He passed away a few years ago at age 100, 7 months. I treasure it, as do you. ??

My next door neighbor was working in that Hallmark store when it happened. She mentioned it yesterday after we heard about the Dorignac’s accident.

Did St.Christopher tonight too! One fish plate, one shrimp plate. I still have 10 shrimp left. It’s my favorite except when I want grilled which St. Angela Merici ometimes has.

Close to 96 hours. My husband was in the hospital with one condition that begat another that begat another and so on. He was having hallucinations, on meds that made him continually need “cleaning up”, trying to get up while being hooked to all kinds of machines, severe heart complications, encephalopathy, etc etc. I had absolutely no help at all. I cannot tell you what all went on and how absolutely horrible it all was. And I cannot believe he lived. I have no idea how I was able to do it.

Same thing happened to me at the Discount on Vets by Bonnabel, but at least I was close to the car and stopped it pretty quickly. Hadn’t gone into the store, just put on the little click thing and wasn’t looking at it when it happened.

Humana calls repeatedly for my husband to have this done. They came a couple of times. They call incessantly and I keep telling them no, but they still call from several different numbers.

She is adorable! I grew up south of Ellick and happen to be here now at my parents’ house. We had 2 ridgebacks and 1 part ridgeback. Great dogs! Does she have a ridge on her back ? Can’t tell from the pics.

1950’s - I think 1952, but would have to open it up for the exact year, Sunbeam T20 chrome toaster. Was my grandmother’s. It is badass! Very retro vintage sleek looking.
