Surfhut When I was a kid, a turtle showed up in our garden every spring. We named her Honey. Where do they go during the winter?

Hikergal I've heard Filipino people called many things in my life and I know many are very strong. I just thought Corie's description of who she was hysterical .Sammie was laughing so hard telling me about it and I was laughing and Corie stands there hands on her hips and yells "Well I am!! you're just mad cuz you aren't! So there!" Love that kid so much including the crazy "flip a piano" part it melds so well with the Scot/Irish temper.

Hikergal posted on Recipes this isn't a recipe but a reminisce.My Joe was an honest man.At work one day he noticed an error in a contract that would have cost another company several million dollars and the guy that wrote it trouble. Now he could have accepted it and his company would profit but he called the guy and showed him how to rewrite it so both companies came out a head. The man was so happy he asked what can I do for you ? My Joe says how about a lobster dinner some time? Next day 3 boxes show up at our house inside each were 25 live lobsters each a pound and a quarter(chicken lobsters ) now what would you do with 100 pounds of live lobster???

Hikergal I cooked then froze a lot so when my Mom came down month later we had lobster salad sandwiches on toast points served on my beautiful pink depression glass with tea!! Fancy schmantsy!! I think it was the 7th or 8th time in her life she ever had lobster. You would have thought we were having dinner with the Queen and the joy it gives me today to know that my Mom had a wonderful treat because the man I married was honest and worthy only made it better

Gerty I know I've said this before, Miss Hikergal, but it deserves to be repeated!!
I just love when you refer to your dear husband as "My Joe"! I hope I get to meet him in our after-lives.
Balogreene I splurged and bought a $40 pair of shoes, I left them out, as I meant to wear them the next morning. The next morning, I awoke to find a chewed up shoe on my pillow. On the way to work the next day, I bought another pair (I really loved them ). $80 for three shoes, that's a record for me. P.S. it was my heart-dog, Nevada, the greyhound.

Rollingcow You'll have to settle for a photo since I don't have a video camera. I thought I'd wait to post until tomorrow so that Surfhut could see it without scrolling back too far and I know she's with the Boy in California right now. Mrs. Cow
Hikergal posted on Coffee Klatch I have the best daughter in the whole wide world!!!!! A few weeks ago on the main page it was put up that someone had a few of the Lucianne.com coffee mugs for sale.I always wanted one. I joked with BG something like... be nice if only we had room in the cupboard. Well today I got a surprise in the mail . A L.com coffee cup complete with a package of instant cocoa. I have been enjoying it ever since. I really do have a great kid!!!!

MsCharlotteVale Isn't 03 a captain? Second Lewey, first lewey and then captain. Those are company grades and then you have major, light colonel and full bull, those are field grade. Then you get to the general grades.

Hikergal so my eldest daughter is driving to her TDY in NM and I get a FB update of
Yay history — at White Sands Missle Range.
not sure if I am glad she knows the history or if she learned good evasive driving tactics!!
