  1. Wow, an incredible amount of happenings in this chapter. Babies, Lucy, a ring ceremony ... and increased maturity. All nicely done as expected. Kudos.
  2. Hmmm, so instead of falling off a chair she was able to get up from a fall using a chair ... what a novel concept. No Gary you can't fall down just to try it out.
  3. G'day y'all. The day is beginning warm and humid but forecast to turn chill and blustery then down right cold.
  4. Who cares when he's got that guy to help ...

    Chapter 43

    You've done a masterful job of beginning to tie the loose ends ... now if what remains to be done is as satisfying as that jambalaya ...
  7. The courgettes, haricots vert, brocolli and spinach. You know the green stuff you push to the side of your plate.
  8. I think you forgot the green veggies ...
  9. Is that Albert and Steve?
  10. Our weather has taken a distinctly humid turn too. However, we're expecting a strong cold front within the next 18-24 hrs. There is a slight potential for freezing temps Fri and Sat mornings before a gradual warmup.
  11. My son has a set of a Scottish version similiar to the uilleann pipes. They are in the same b-flat key as the large highland pipes so tunes sound the same though much softer, their small size makes them ideal for playing indoors.

    As Cyn becomes more accustomed to the "new" more imposing Shea his confidence will make him less likely to fear the other members of the Council.
  13. Well, now that you make mention of my brillance I will admit mum calls me ... son. Whew, no bluefish typos this time.
  14. Seems I self-quoted when I was trying to edit a typo ...
  15. It's a lively day here too. A high of 60/15° with bright sunny skies, low humidity and a light breeze. That breeze was far chillier at dawn. I went for a 3 mile walk this afternoon. The migraine that was nagging me for three days finally broke this afternoon.
  16. Uhm, when did you start the dairy herd? I have to say you've made a fine choice in your farmhand. Bet he has a fim hand at milking time.
  17. Maybe plan on getting a little extra rest too.
  18. Hmmm, I can think of a good kind of hurt but it doesn't require a needle. Yep, it could ...
  19. Thank you. The meal was a success. It was also good to see the one couple as we last saw them briefly at another friend's memorial service last July.
  20. Mum would tell you to use that arm to do things. She actually requested they put the shot in her dominant arm then came home and dry mopped the floors. Using the arm helps ease the the ache.
  21. Greetings of the day y'all. Mum and I are hosting 3 couples today for a meal in celebration of the season. Traditionally since I was a small child mum would host both sets of my grandparents and another couple they knew for dinner on Palm Sunday. Easter dinner was always a celebration with mum's extended family. After mum and my stepdad moved to SC they would host a small group of friends. Last year Covid put paid to that tradition. However, all of the attendees this year, with me as the exception, have been vaccinated and can safely gather. We are serving fresh spinach salad, jaeger-style roast pork, mashed potato casserole, glazed rainbow baby carrots, asparagus casserole. Dessert will be lemon meringue pie. I had intended to make a chocolate creme pie but have been coping with nasty migraine since Friday and decided it best to visit a nearby pie maker to purchase something instead.
  22. ... and declawed, would make it easier on her herd. Remember the poor lad from the other day with the scars on his bicep.
  23. I really like this one. There's so much to see ... the obvious neglect and yet the potential for renewal. Happy to hear you have a thought on how next to entertain us.
