My plants were doing great with all the rain we were getting but now it's in the '90's and no rain. There isn't enough time in the day for me to get out and water them throughtly like they need. Try to get the hanging plants on the back patio but my other plants are sure droppy looking maybe this everning I can get to it. Been putting down grandulars around the house trying to get rid of bugs. Have to drop the grandular then go back and wet them so maybe I can give plants a drink while I wet the grandulars.

Mine is the same way Shirley H., he sits in the car listening to Rush while I do the shopping. In the heat you feel like you have to hurry or you will come back to a heat stroke. We got back today and had two monkeys on the top of our house. Grandson and a friend were putting some shingles on the roof that had blown off, I came up on the porch to two men talking and couldn't find them until one of the looked over the roof. once in awhile one of the girls will come in and we will have a girls day out and believe you me I make the most out of it. Daughter in law took me out last week for a hair cut came back home to a house full of company. But at least I had a relaxing morning!!!!

Hey, I feel the same way Dot Jo! This morning while Nakai was at the VA I had him drop me off at the mall as I needed to go to the library..

Which I can't do when he is sitting out in the car waiting for me.. Then we went to Wallies to pick up my meds and I zoomed thru there getting what I needed as again he sat out in the car reading his paper and eating his McDonalds.. actually I HATE McDonalds except for their breakfast that is.. When Keala and I have another girls day out I want to go Applebee's and try their sandwiches..In fact I think every girls day I will make a list of the restaurants we like and put them in a bag ..shake it up and the one we pick will be out treat for that day! WEll maybe not EVERY time we go out but at least a few times a month.. LOL When we got home I had my nose stuck in the TV watching Glen Beck show and I heard some noise but didn't bother with what it was..(one of hearing aids battery was dead so I had the tv blasting and didn't realize it LOL) Anyway, it was my friend Ella and she scared the poop out of me when she walked in the living room and started talking to me.. (she has a Texas way of talking LOL cause that is where she was born and raised) She told me that Nakai and Dave told her to go on in as I was in the apartment.(they were putting new brake shoes on Daves van) Anyway, Ella is upset that we might be moving to Washougal in Sept and came over with a bunch of printed out pages of apartments for me to look at..that are closer to Orchards where we live now..

Wasen't it wonderful then......We knew there were risks but who diden't and we enjoyed them....Loved life and what we could make of it...... ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 9:44 PM Subject: Re: [DOWN-HOME-CHATTER] Fw: 1900 -1979 It is a wonder we did survive. Compared to this generation, I don't think they could make it, but if they had the kind of rearing we did, it would be such a wonderful America again....................I miss How this country used to be, I know there were problems, but the government didn't stick its nose into our lives..............our lives were wonderful growing up, and raising our children. It was a completely different world and a much better one in my opinion.......................Don't think we will ever see it again. So sad........................sam To Those of You Born 1930 - 1979 At the end of this email is a quote of the month by Jay Leno. If you don't read anything else, please read what he said. Very well stated, Mr. Leno. TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE 1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!! F irst, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-base paints.. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had baseball caps not helmets on our heads. As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, no booster seats, no seat belts, no air bags, bald tires and sometimes no brakes Riding in the back of a pick- up truck on a warm day was always a special treat. We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and no one actually died from this. We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter and bacon. We drank Kool-Aid made with real white sugar. And, we weren't overweight. WHY? Because we were always outside playing...that's why! We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. And, we were O.K. We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride them down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times,we learned to solve the problem. We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's and X-boxes. There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no person al computers, no Internet and no chat rooms WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them! We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever. We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes. We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them. Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.. Imagine that!! The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever. The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all. If YOU are one of them? CONGRATULATIONS! You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good. While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave and lucky their parents were. Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it ? ~ The quote of the month is by Jay Leno: 'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'
