JSM's BEGGING FOR BAN THREAD #19 8/05/10 - 8/27/10

[Missiontoconvict]

Prayers for both of you to sell your homes    I don't blame you one bit cookie it isn't worth it to give your house away, hopefully the right buyer will come along real soon.

From me too. 

Me three

NRCG have you been over to musings today?  I figured out were San was.  Klaas made some of her pictures into a slide show.  I gotta get some work done. Catch up with you monkeys later. 

I will head over there in a minute - good for you GreenEyes  I'd say that is worth a Monkey mug or something.

snip for post of Tolerance:

I am looking forward to trying 5 Guys Burgers..............to date my favorite 'eating out place' is Garrett's at the Golf Shack.  I don't go much, tho, I feel so conspicuous eating out alone.  I mostly go when my sister and her hubby are here (Elgin residents).
I live just off Perryville rather near C V Mall...............no doubt we have passed somewhere..............
Saw your post about Osage..................sounds like you have a wonderful lifestyle!  Hubby and I had plans to retire in ST. George, UT.......................but LIFE HAPPENS WHILE WE ARE MAKING PLANS.
If I ever get to the point where I can sell our home I would love to find a nice small condo.............I am so exhausted from trying to keep our home up.
Hope you are enjoying the wonderful weather!
Do you spend winters at the Lake?


We are home right now...going to the lake soon for some R&R...
I am very familiar with the Perryville/CV Mall area...and Hubs and I were at Garrett's just a few weeks ago..we like it there too...
We are trying to sell our big home too...not much luck! lots of lookers but mostly gawkers it seems..there are too many forfeited homes out there that are really cheap..that is where the buyers seem to be going..We already bought our new smaller home and we are finishing off the lower level..no plans to move in yet until the big house sells..and who knows when that will be! but we are not going to give our house away..Hubs works way too hard to just let it go for nothing...we will hold out till the market gets better..

edited by me...probably too much info lol...

I didn't see it as too much info, at all!
I know I have seen signage for Aberdeen..................but not sure where!
I had my house on the market for 9 months.  2 offers, but the folks could not get financing.
I have decided to wait to see if things turn around.
I have reliable help for the lawn and a handyman I trust, so that is half the battle.
My sons' jobs have taken them out of Rockford but 2 are in IL.  They would help w/ anything I need but I don't ask...........I like for them not to worry about me and prefer they think I am doing just fine.  Most days I am.  The two in IL have Masters' degrees, but are much less handy than my son in Fla..........................who has no degree.   I find that amusing.  Fl. son can fix, build, and retro fit anything........... while the IL sons are wonderful, too, and willing, they mostly fix things by using the yellow pages.
I envy your retirement plans..........they sound wonderful. 
I wish my Brian would have lived to see our dreams come true...............
Thank you for sharing!
All the best!
Pat

Bless you Tolerance.

LOS ANGELES -- Actor Martin Short's wife, Nancy Dolman, has died at the age of 58.

Short's wife of 30 years died Saturday morning at the couple's Pacific Palisades home, according to his manager, Martin Gurvitz.

Gurvitz did not provide a cause of death or any additional details.

Dolman had been battling cancer since 2007.

Short, best known for his comedic roles on "Saturday Night Live" and in the "Father of the Bride" franchise, married Dolman in 1980 after the pair met while working together in a production of "Godspell."

Dolman, also an actress, was best known for her recurring role as Annie Selig Tate on the 1980s sitcom Soap.    My daughter just sent me this.

It is so heartbreaking, so young.

Good Morning Everyone.  Had more rain last night ugggh enough already but today is beeeeeutiful at 77 no humidity ahhhhhh.  Fridge was warm this morning but the freezer is working fine Uggggggh, what next?  Other than that all is well.  I hope you are all having a good day.

Morning Mission

I hope the fridge isn't going out. But it does seem to be  never ending at times doesn't it.  Maybe it is like mine and the coils just need to be cleaned.

Repair man can't get out until tomorrow morning...........yikes, looks like we are going to need some coolers 

Road trip time.  I have a freezer full of Kevin now that his bacon is cured, a garden full of veggies and lots of room.  Making apple pies this week and freezing them. 

  Kevin is in the freezer. I never really cared that much for Kevin, but Norbert was my friend    I love apple pie!!!!

Next year you can name the piggly wiggly   

        I get to name the wiggly pig!!!

I had no idea that this woman was Martin Short's wife. I loved the show Soap, and didn't realize they were married. I hope she didn't suffer very long.

  Hi everyone   

   WELCOME Tolerance   

I have been busy getting the garden in, pooled drained and all that fun stuff.  Kids go back to school next week and woke up to a big 9degrees C this morning with frost warning for the weekend.  Anyone want some fresh potatoes?  Dig your own and you can take as much as you want.  Why I planted 150 hills again I have no idea right now. 

I would give my eye teeth for those fresh potatoes.  They look wonderful Northern Rose!  Making your beans this week for a family picnic this weekend! 

[Missiontoconvict]

I forgot the catch, for every lb of potatoes you take you also have to pick the same amount of apples   

That's it I am firing up the jet, loading up all the monkeys and we are coming up!    It looks like you may still have the smoky haze huh?

I can move the neighbours trampoline under the tree and if you fall you can bounce right back up

  We will get through the smokey haze, one way or another.

Wow, Northern,
What lovely produce!!!
If you could 'see' me you would know I LOVE potatoes!
The apples are gorgeous!
Now, I'm new, so need to ask where you live, if you don't mind?
My family celebrates 1/2 birthdays, too!

Tolerance.  Northern Rose is a fabulous cook. Not sure if you found the recipe threads when you were strolling around this am but she has some recipes in them and they are all delishhhhhhh.

Oh no Mission. I hope it doesn't cost too much to get fixed.

I hope not either JSM, the fridge is not that old.   

[Missiontoconvict]

Thank you Tolerance

I planted Russet, red, purple, german butter and a banana potatoe this year.  Only spud missing from the picture is the banana potatoe.  The kids like the purple and I love red potatoes more than white except for baked potatoes and fries.

Where is everybody today?

JSM Prayers you are feeling better today.

Prayers to Martin Short and May his wife Rest in Peace. Read this morning she passed away. She was only 58. So young they didn't say why.

Thanks for the prayers Greeneyes. I took 6 advil, 1 tylenol and a muscle relaxer. I feel much better now. 

JSM please be careful with the meds.

  I will Greeneyes. I pop advil like candy.

JSM, your stomach is going to be one big hole.  Don't pop Advil, if you have a problem go to the doctor.  I want to see you at your wedding, I don't want to be comforting your fiance.  Please take care of yourself.  Advil is bad for your insides.

[no rose colored glasses]

Northern I would love to work, now that your weather is cool, I can really move fast
