COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #31

Morning all - its rainy and cold here this morning. I missed a lot of serious stuff and a lot of fun during my night (your evening).

My first reaction to your 16 children Diane was shock! Then I read carefully, something I never do as attested to by my early attempts at the "Before and After" game.

 

Good Morning all,

I hope you are all well. I am still snuffly. I'm off to uni to do some revision, I will try and look in later.

I hope you all have a good day,

God Bless

Sheila

 

Is the weather as bad over there as it is here this morning Sheila? Its not quite cold enough to snow, but lashing rain!

Roger

 

Sheila,

Have "fun" at the university!

Roger,

The weather is cold here - I hate it!

Dan - I don't have the discipline to study at the university - and I really hate the cold weather!

 

Morning Everyone, I woke suddenly this morning and I'm sure it's because I'm worried about my father and also have to work today.

Sorry you're not much better, Sheila! Hope this gets better soon. And Roger... still having those winds? We had an 'Alberta Clipper' come through but it's 45° already here. Should be really cold tonight tho.

Hey Dan. Are you already at work? And Sue! Up early again I see. I've got to teach you how to sleep. I woke up thinking I could nap this afternoon and then remembered I have to work for the next few days. yawn....... At least I'll have the internet!

We don't take off MLK Day with home schooling or Columbus Day, etc. I'd much rather take off the first beautiful spring day or take off the day to do something exciting.

More Tea Please!
Diane

 

Morning all

I too saw Blackbird and he was catching an early morning breakfast.

Sheila Hope you get to feeling better. I know if I had to go to the uni, it would make it worse.

I received my Bachelors Degree, thought about persuing a masters degree and thought about it some more. It didn't take long to determine that I wasn't ready for more mental torture.

Life is enough education for me. Get well soon!

 

No pops up even trying to pop up here Sue.

Diane, the winds have abated, but it is COLD and rainy!

 

Hi Gib! We miss you when you're too busy for us. Your humor is a breath of fresh air!

Sue, I had the pop-ups the other day but had just been to the AP and figured out they started there. No pop ups for me this a.m. Did you visit any news site? One of our Atlanta news sites is horrible about pop-ups! You actually have to shut down that window instead of going to another web site from there to stop the pop-ups!

Ug.... still need more tea! I took some aspirin. I went to bed with a slight tension headache and then watched t.v. til right at 1:00! I'll be SUPER tired tonight! We have visitation tonight at 7:00 p.m. Not sure how I'll work that out yet. The store is opened til 7:00 but Gary did say I could leave in time for that. I won't have a visitation partner tonight. With them switching from Tuesday to Thursday, my partner works part time and can't come!

Here's one Barnabas sent me! Since I'll be selling 'Corn Stoves' today, it seems appropriate!

 

Blackbird: "Your Southern Baptist preaching, slow postin' buddy."

I sure am glad you post slo'
Some post so fast they buzz by befoe i can read them or
take a gander at them purty pictures.

Ed, yo' Southern Baptist deaconin', slow readin' buddy.

I am Blessed 16: "Here is a sig from a different site.
Can you see it.

Yep

Theoretically (but practically would be less), one
can (due to flood protection) only post:
2 posts per minute
120 posts per hour
2880 posts per day.
So even if i had a machine that could generate random posts,
it would take over three days to catch up with I am Blessed 16.

 

Good morning folks! How in the world are you? (You remember, ye are in the world, but not of the world!). Hope all is well with you all (no pun intended).

I woke up to a 4" snow this morning and it is still coming down. The temperature is 8°F at the moment, but last night it was only 2. After breakfast I took a picture of our front garden with all the snow. We still have our Christmas tree out there, and the lights can be clearly seen. The link is below. Have a nice day all!

Hello everyone,

Thank you for all your good wishes. My cold is nowhere near as bad as Rob's. I am feeling better today but still snuffly.
Uni was good today and a friend brought me home. Still plenty of work to do tho.
We have been finding out a lot about Leo. His birthday is 31 January, which is quite soon. Rob has also talked with his breeder and we are going over to see him this evening. Apparently Leo has some family over there, so a doggy family reunion LOL. We also should find out his Kennel name and the breeder says he can give us a copy of his documents. I am really pleased about that. I hope he has a nice Kennel name. Cassie's was Lady of Silver Moonshade and Tumble's was Golden Virgo Prince (my mother's choice not mine). So looks like we have an interesting visit lined up.

Back later,

Sheila

 

That's NEAT Sheila! I can't wait to find out his
'birth' name but Leo is a really cute name.

Barnabas.... neither link would work for me. It said it's forbidden. It's warm here alread.... Well 41 and that's down from 45 when I got up.

Must leave for work but I'll have nothing to do today but post so y'all aren't rid of me yet! LOL...

Back in a little while. Gotta brave the traffic!

Diane

 

Diane, Rob chose Leo's name. He was originally called Lucky, but the foster home he went to from the police station couldn't get him to respond to it.

We found out last week when we took him to the groomers (doggy hairdressers) that they knew him as Lucky, but didn't realise it was him. It was a comment I made which led to him being identified. The groomer said she would contact the breeder and he has contacted us. I will let you know what happens.

Better get back to the books for a while, I hope you have a good day at work,

Blessings

Sheila

 

That's neat Sheila. We adopted a cat once and tried calling him name after name. Finally one of us said Kit Kat and he came right over so Kit Kat it was! Dubbs was originally named Jordie but we adopted him as a tiny kitten and changed it with no problem. Leo sounds like a really cute doggy name. I bet he's a joy!

Let me know what you find out!

Diane

 

Sue that makes no sense! How in the world are all those files getting in?

You can load Spybot and it will help you get rid of the adware files daily BUT it messed up my Norton Anti Virus and I had to remove both and then reload Norton.

Diane

 

Sue, why don't you download a free program (Ad-aware 6.0), which checks your computer for spyware and gets rid of them? Here is the URL...
