OK, when I click on see rest of comments from yesterday, that warning comes up. Is it ok to ignore it? As long as I don’t click on a picture? Haven’t seen the rest of them yet.
I decided to pack for my trip on Fri. I lugged my suitcase up to my bedroom and opened it to start packing this evening. Much to my surprise I found my dirty clothes from my last trip (to see Miles). Then I remembered I decided it would be really smart to just leave them in the suitcase because I needed to return the case downstairs (where the laundry room is) and no point in putting them in a laundry basket and having to take two things downstairs. Then I put the suitcase away and forgot all about the dirty clothes! I was wondering why I was running out of clothes! hahaha I shouldn’t tell on myself, but there it is! Now I’m doing laundry………….sigh……………

You know the detail is really great, as someone was saying a couple of days ago. Check out how the pants go over the edge of the porch rail, just a wee bit as George leans against it!

Bev, I looked at everything on yesterday’s.
Just don’t follow any URL’s to pictures.
I wasn’t going to post anything about it here cos I don’t think people should get alarmed….
but you should ALWAYS be aware that going to any unfamiliar URL, or unknown site is a risk…
But its one that most of us take every day, which is why up-to-date antivirus software is important.
I use the free stuff from Microsoft…
nothing is 100% guaranteed, but so far so good.

I’m pretty sure that a flag with a red X on a yellow background means “Cancel the Yellow Fever Warning”.
Not sure about the tassels.

Meanwhile, here we have another wonderfully accepting and enthusiastic Ballard St. couple.
Not “Howard, put down that silly flag!” or “Howard, you’re supposed to be mowing the back yard.”
No worries about acting his age or what the neighbors think.
Just a genial acknowledgement of his activity …
which he happily pursues with no thought of looking ridiculous.
I think Ballard Street provides great role models for relationships.
