LOL-She couldn't eat until just a few days ago.  No need to express them, they will be good whenever they arrive and Keith's brother can't visit her every day.

I'll PM now, so let me know if you don't receive it.

Just got up to check on Mom, she is sleeping.

It is a wonderful evening here. After what felt like a nice summer day.  Tomorrow will be hot - 90 degrees!  So, tonight, in honor of summer...I shall go get ice cream!

I like Legally Blonde as well.  I first saw it when I stayed at the Muse in NY.  I just bought the double DVD with both movies on it.

VixMom, I know that the Vixters Birthday is tomorrow.  I am so sorry I didn't get the chance to mail her a card this year.  Please tell her that I do wish her a very Happy day.



Oh Gosh! With all you have to deal with you are worried about the Vixter's birthday?!  You are a Saint.


I herenow proclaim by the powers granted unto me  (by me)

That from this day forward

DR Danise shall be known as DS (Dear Saint) Danise











I haven't gotten her a card yet... She's not even here!! She went away with her church youth group to New Jersey for  a Lutheran Youth Convention

 i suppose I should get cracking on that....

I think the tree guy has been boss too long and Paul was probably right, lol.  He will be much richer after cutting down 8 full grown trees on my yard. YIKES!!! They are all either totally dead or rotten on the bottom and in danger of falling on either my house or a neighbor's house. SO, I'm biting the bullet.  His crew will take them all out in about 2 weeks.

Danise, you are a fabulous daughter.  

Not so good.   When she's been in shrew mode (before yesterday) I've said some bad things to her.  I feel very bad about it now but at the time I was soooo mad.  I wish I could take it back.  I really didn't mean it.

I am thinking about planting 2 apple trees near the gazebo.  They would have nice blossoms in the spring and tasty apples in the fall.  (you have to plant 2 so they can bear fruit)

Danise, you are a fabulous and human daughter.   With all the stress, anyone would say bad things once in a while. Don't beat yourself up about it.

Danise even saints have their limitations.  When I think of all the years you have cared for your mother, I also consider you a saint, or about as close to one as any person can be.

We have two trees on our front lawn that really should be removed...one is dead and falling apart... we had a lot of the biggest branches lopped off a year ago and then the tree guy vanished before finishing the job (we hadnt paid him yet so no worries)

So it's not in any immediate danger of killing anyone.


The other is valinetly trying to stay alive, throwing out new shoots but it is  on it's last legs (roots?)  I hate to take them down , and not just because of the $600 we've been quoted, the birds love them and the hollow trunks are full of nests

She probably doesn't remember (* and if she mentions it look suprised and tell her it must have been a dream! LOL)

Yikes, I don't how much that costs where your at but here that's at LEAST a hundred dollars per tree!

It's more than that, the trees are much taller than my two story house, there are wires in the way and they can't get their trucks close to 3 of them.  So that means climbing and cutting without hitting my house or the neighbors.  But it has to be done and it's better than a tree crashing into someone's bedroom in the middle of the night and having who knows what happen.   One of the trees is so rotten I poked it with a stick and it went over half way through the trunk. They will also grind out the stumps and take away all the wood.

I've known I had to do both the trees and the chimney this year. I wasn't going to do all the trees at once, but I have the money now and they all need to go, so I'm doing it.  I was planning on doing some window work, but that may have to wait. I could sand, paint and seal the bad ones myself.

OH! I am glad you mentiond that, we were thinking of planting some trees in the back I was thinking an apple and peach would be nice, but I would need to have two of each to get fruit?

Maybe two apple then....

Luckily there are still lots of trees around here for the wildlife to enjoy. The birds love my huge pine in the front yard. It gives them a lot of protection.

...Neither did she, Dear DR Danise, neither did she.  You and she are in the right place now, physically and emotionally, it sounds.  Wish I could drop in with some dark chocolate and a big hug.

On the subject of CABARET, I really love the new revisal with one exception: Cliff's singing role has been seriously diminished, and I don't understand the rationale behind that at all. Unlike the film where all the songs not done in performance or a public domain (the outdoor scene)were eliminated, the CABARET revisal still retains book numbers for the other characters. Cliff's wonderful songs should also be retained.

I think you mighr be mistaken about the public domain song if you mean the scene at the beer garden where the blond boy and the patron sing Tomorrow Belongs Tom Me. That song is a Kander/Ebb.

If this isn't the scene you mean which one is it?

Does anyone care to know that 45 years ago today, I wore nylons for the first time?  It was my sister's wedding and I was a junior bridesmaid.  45 years - wow!
