Some years it just isn't possible to get together on specific days but those times it does happen makes them all the more special. Happy Father's Day MMC.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads! Mine just came by to pick up his presents. .. a nice meals on wheels (pork roast, fresh purple hull peas, squash, mac & cheese, watermelon, cantaloupe and two pieces of banana nut cake.) Another pkg with a card and box of his fav chocolates. You'd think the guy would gain a lb or two... but as much as I try to fatten him up, he walks it off on the golf course. Weighs 130 soaking wet. LOL

V, your week sounds fun. I'll trade ya! ;)

If there is one button I live for, it's the one that turns the coffee pot on! I can find that button, blindfolded, on any coffee pot known to man! :lamo:

Happy Father's Day, MMC! :kissy:
 
OK, y'all... which state should you live in?

Which U.S. State Should You Live In?

I got Texas. Imagine that! ★☆★☆★☆

I got Texas, too! It must be their willingness to buck trends if they aren't fair to all! My children all grew up in NE Ohio, but they now live and work in Texas, and they love it! They actually dread the thought of living anywhere else now! They've actively been trying for quite a while to get me to relocate there, and I have considered it. I've decided that my best bet would be to spend the Winter months in Texas, and come back to Ohio for the Summer months. win-win, IMO! :mrgreen:

Good day, P! We'd luv to have you move to Texas if only for the winters! Good folks are always welcome (although I checked 'no population fine with me'). LOL

First I got NY. Didn't like the answer so I took the quiz again. Second time it came up California. Didn't like that answer either so I took it a third time. I finally got Florida. I can live with that one. :) Today has been special. Son and his family took us out for brunch at J. Liu Restaurant. Never been there. The food was great. The selection was overwhelming. They had a carving station, delicious prime rib. They offered omelets to order. The breakfast bar itself had eggs benedict, homefries, bacon, sausage, cinnamon French toast, smoked salmon, etc. etc... The dessert table had baskets of chocolate covered strawberries, assortment of cheesecakes, chocolate mousse etc. etc. etc..... Very yummy.

Oh Vesper, your brunch sounded delicious! We don't have a J. Liu in this area, sad to say, but if I ever see one anywhere, you can bet I'll visit them - if only for the dessert table! :lol: You just don't see that any more.

Greetings, Vesper. :2wave:

You will have to come to the Columbus area Polgara. There are only two locations I know of one in Dublin the other in Worthington. Tell ya what, you ever make down to Columbus and lunch is on me!

:thanks: My sister-in-law used to live in Worthington, so I am familiar with that area. She moved to Florida some years ago, and now lives in Orlando- an area I am also very familiar with because that's where Disney World is! :mrgreen:

We tentatively have a whole-family vacation planned for December of 2016, and everyone is eagerly saving their money for tickets and spending on the future trip - I'll pick up the tab for the lodging inside Disney as my Christmas gift to them. It's been some years since we were last there as a family, and there are more of us now, so I hope the world doesn't go to H*** in the meantime! I'm looking forward to riding the monorail again! :lol:

Polgara, I have contiplated the same thoughts of paying for everyone to go to Disney World or on a Cruise for the family, a gathering of a lifetime. I'm just biding my time until the economy is more stable before I lay down the cash. When you see your insurance take major hikes, your utilities due to new feckless regulations take a hike, and when a trip to the grocery store or filling up your vehicle with petro causes one to take an antacid, I just can't justify putting out the money for such an adventure at this time. But oh Lord I would love to! Honey and I were almost ready to go for a 12 day cruise in the Mediterranean this Fall over an offer we received but turned it down because of all the uncertainty. That's life.

Vesper, I'm hoping for their sakes that we can go - the little ones are so looking forward to it. It's 2-1/2 years away, though, so anything can happen. To tell you the truth, I don't even feel comfortable going to the mall these days - too much uncertainty about crackpots. We have the mid-term elections in a few months, so a lot depends on that, country-mood wise. Then we have the Presidential election in 2016, but I think I'll have to plunk down a deposit long before that. If things get worst going forward, as I suspect they just might, we just won't go. In the meantime, they are saving their money to go, so maybe they can go somewhere else local, like a six-flags or something. I try to stay upbeat, but I well remember the warnings after 9/11 about avoiding events that drew lots of people in one place, like football stadiums, etc. To think that we will all have to cower in our homes, which will probably be uncomfortable, if our utility bills skyrocket as a result of Cap an Trade - and add increased premiums for Obamacare and the threat that we may be paying lots more for gas for our cars and food for us - just ticks me off royally! We didn't cause these problems, but we have to live with them? :bs: *Rant off!*
 
Good morning, bar flies. Welcome to another manic Monday!

Good morning to you, ray of sunshine! :yes: Yep, another week beginning - I hope I have the strength to cope with whatever crappy news they want to throw at us this week! It's Summer, for heavens sake - we're supposed to be happy, and not worried and disgusted all the time! meh!

Greetings, SMW. :2wave:

Do yourself a favor and don't check out futures on the finance pages. It was a mistake. I think we could all use a little good news. It is suppose to get up to 86 today so I'm heading out now to edge, weed and water while it is still cool. Wishin all a good one.

How are we so lucky that we get to watch a major unraveling - *sarcasm intended!* It's been predicted by knowledgeable experts for a while, so people can't say they weren't warned. Insiders have been selling everything as fast as they can lately , so it looks like phase two is arriving, as planned and orchestrated, ready or not. :eek: That's why I, and many others, have been spending time for over a year, teaching moms how to help themselves and their families - the government sure as Hell isn't doing it! :2mad: They keep telling us that things are fine and dandy, when it's apparent they're not - 47 million on food stamps just so they don't starve, as one example - , and people are finally realizing they've been lied to for a very long time. The wealthy elites will be okay, it's the majority that won't understand what happened, and they will be angry.

I, too, think I'll go work outside just to reassure myself that it's just humans that are screwing everything up - and that can be changed.
