Sorry Mooks, Blender came attached with husband in the wedding papers (I think it still works). BossHen had an immediate need, so the elephant and the tommyknocker were spared.
Clay soil? Pull out the rototiller and the shovels. Mix in a little topsoil and some claybuster. Then borrow the boyz to help plant the gladiolas and the other bulbs. (They have to be right there with you during planting and have a blast in loose dirt - digging machines that terriers be....)
Jim - they all sound like flatlanders to me.
MC - I tell the Driver I have an immediate need all the time and I still don't have my 1 carat yellow diamond with white pillars on either side.
Or my new winter boots - which are looking more likely!
Will take de Boyz anytime - our backyard needs a little roto-ing.

Just got home from the woods. Score is:-Critters: 1-Dan: 4
Now I gotta get ready for work. Argh...what a way to end the day after such a nice start!

Most of the rain is gone from our area. Might see a little bit more, probably only sprinkles or drizzle. Got my doctor appointment and PT appointments (rides to and from) scheduled for next week.
Making today MEXICAN FIESTA DAY. On the warmer bar: tacos, quasadillas, enchiladas, beef burritos, beef & bean burritos, Spanish rice, etc., along with tortilla chips and salsa, and con qaso. Figured the heat from the Mexican dishes could warm up our insides. Anyone want to fix a to-go container, to take home for supper tonight, feel free to do so. Made sure I made enough of everything.
Now, I'm off to do my exercises that I can do here at home.
Dan, what kind of critters are you dealing with? We are having a problem with squirrels.

No glads - tulips, irises, and some lilies. Maybe more than I need, but I can probably find homes for them. They aren't as bad as rabbits, but they do multiply!

Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
Dan - box 'em up and send 'em to our house. Our busy street keeps the population down and the smarter ones get peanuts and corn.
It's Thursday. What do you do with Thursday. It is past the middle, still not the weekend, not a color day (Blue Monday, Red Friday). Guess I will just sit quietly until it is Thursday nite and then start celebrating Friday.

Good Thursday morning, to one and all. Hope everyone had a good night, last night. Still a little cool around here, think the current outside temp is about 53. But it is quite windy outside.
Coffee, juice and hot water for tea are ready. On the warmer bar, you'll find turkey bacon, sausage links and patties, fried taters, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, toast, bagels, bear claws, blueberry and bran muffins, and cinnamon rolls.
Have another PT session later this morning, so don't know if I'll be back to get lunch. There's plenty in the fridge and cooler, so I know you all will be able to find something for lunch.
Talk to you all later.
mookie

Um....just what do you do with them when you catch them?
Or do I really want to know?

It didn't work.
Dan, come to Louisville and help us get rid of one in the house!
Seems like it didn't find enough nuts outside for the Winter, and is now looking to find some more on the inside. I don't think we qualify for that title just yet,..................
but he's working on it,especially when it's terrorizing the model railroad layout.
(particularly since it's not an O Scale figure and keeps moving around!!)
(and I thought cats were bad around a layout, sheesh!!)
(guess I'm going to have to get one of those "Humane" traps and if it gets caught, let it back out with the other tens of thousands of them stupid rodent critters.)
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
I may be able to help with that in December...stay tuned!
I'll have a plate of whatever is for dinner.

Don't think we can wait 'til Dec., but I will stay "Tuned"!
If I can "catch" it, "ROAST SQUIRREL SHIS-KEBAB" may be the entr'ee tonight.
Good Friday morning, everyone. Well, it's very foggy outside this morning, and we have a 20% chance of rain, mid morning and then around 4 this afternoon.
Coffee, juice and hot water for tea and cocoa are ready this morning. There's aslo an assortment of doughnuts, bagels, and bear claws out on the counter for your breakfast this morning.
I'll be picked up about 9:45 for my therapy this morning, so hope someone around here can get started on the FRIDAY FISH FRY in case I'm not back at 11. Now, I'll call this Friday morning meeting to order (as soon as some others show up in here, and we can discuss all things railroad and anything else.
You discuss, I will listen with my head in my saucer.
The weather is cool/cold at nite and in the 60's during the day. Makes a body really lazy (ier)
Lots of hot coffee needed this morning. Full moon is reflected in the rest of the forum. Put more rocks on the grocery list!

Sorry. I deleted the link.
If you go to http://www.comics.com/ , then go to the "select a feature" dropdown menu, then choose 'Days of Thunder', then select the cartoon from the 25th.
I think I know the one you are referencing. IIRC that was indeed funny.
Mook, you know those 'adult beverage' hats that hold one container of beverage per side? Perhaps you could modify that somehow too hold coffee pots. Might keep you more mobile to hide/run away when needed.
Dan - I am a very sensitive individual....
Having said that - I can do maybe two cups of coffee a day and then it will make me twitch while I nap.....
However, milk in each side would be nice.
Moo.....
2 side orders of milk for the cat.was doing chores outside before it rains.now get to chores inside.matt is at school at mammas getting the groceries.
.....Looks like a start of a beautiful day here in Muncie...{oops...even hear a train "whistle"}, and that adds to it all. Bright sunshine, my yard seems to be making an effort of recovery from the long draught we've come thru in past months, and seems like a day to keep working ahead on getting ready for Winter stuff. And yard mowing.
Temp now 55. Should warm up a bit more today and the stiff wind has passed.
Speaking of train "whistles".....While in Muncie, it is possible most of the time to hear a working train in the area at one of our lines....Ask Carl as they visited here last week and as we sat conversing at our "depot", there were trains in the distance {and passing in front of us}, practically all the time we sat and visited. So not too shabby of a location to be a railfan.
....Update: 12:49........And the beauty continues....75.4 degrees now. Yard mowing finished and now on to other stuff.....

Here is our FRIDAY FISH FRY menu:
1. Catfish2. Cod3. Perch4. Salmon patties5. Jack6. Shrimp
Side dishes: fries, hushpuppies, cole slaw; Desserts: chocolate cake, yellow cake w/caramel icing, apple, blueberry, cherry, peach and pecan pies. Ice cream available if anyone wants their dessert 'ala mode'.
Drinks: Milk, coffee, iced tea, hot tea, and soft drinks.
Cw thanks for the fish.well the rain is holding off for now and is a nice night.quientin the wind is just right we can sit in the living room with the window open and here the trains coming and going into defiance.cannonball I have heard many a story about berkshire hotshots rolling on the nkp.who wants some popcorn for tonight?
Raining now, but it was nice all day and I got all the bulbs back in the ground. Should be an interesting flower bed come spring..... I have no idea exactly what many of the bulbs are (although I think I picked out most of the tulips and put them where I wanted them). I did find the lilies (I think), so one corner will be the "lily pad..."
Unfortunately the forecast is for wind and rain Saturday, which will make the outside work on the RR a little less enjoyable.
Time to wrap up for the night so I can get plenty of rest - staying the night near the station Saturday night and I never sleep well the first night or two in new bed.
.....Cannonball: Guess I had to take a pass and keep my head toward the project this afternoon, but really enjoyed the nice day we had. Indy was getting rain with that strange movement of a Low system moving west, north west....and we missed it. Just a small amount of it later. But a good day.
Guess the last Berkshire we had in here has been 765, but it's been a while now. It used to be a pretty regular visitor. Have many pic's of it filed away.
