Hey Ernie, 

Those were great pictures. My husband sold his '74 Monte Carlo in '82 after it was involved in a wreck that bent the frame. 

It must have been wonderful growing up on the farm. My husband's family were farmers too and my husband loves telling everyone how he first learnt to drive on his Dad's farm tractor. 

As to the records mentioned here recently, we still have quite a few of our old albums and our 45s too. We still have a few of our older stereos too, though my husband would be happy if I would agree to get rid of those since he prefers to listen to the newer component stereo system we have. 

You mentioned about the long hair you used to have, my husband used to have long hair back then too. He says his hair is too thin now and he still misses it. 

What breed are the pups? They're pretty dogs and the white tips on their paws really stands out against their black fur. 

I've got to get this posted, as I want to write a few other post too before getting started on some other things that I need to do today. I did want to write and say hi again though. 

I hope you have a enjoyable spring day, with good weather and sunshine. 

Have a great day.  

Hey Kitty, 

I'm so happy to hear from you and to hear that the surgery went good. I know that must be a huge relief to you. Thank you for updating us. I hope all turns out well and that she fully recovers. I wish her and your grandson both the best and all the strength they need to get through. Continuing to send good thoughts and best wishes to all of you. 

Have a great day.  

OMGosh - she is so young,  My heartfelt prayers go out to you and your family, especially your granddaughter.   

Excellent news, I hope the surgery was successful in removing all of the tumor and your GD is now in remission.  It's an uphill battle.  She will need all the support of her loving friends and family.  You also need love and support which you will find in mountains here.  Our continued prayers for you and your family.    

Dear Kitty,

Sorry to see your posting.  I know that we have talked via telephone.  Sorry, I have not been on the Forum for a week or so ~ life often gets in the way.  Had a bit of a scare with something called "vertigo".  simple as small crystals in one's ear canals?    A trip via ambulance to the nearest hospital and all good.  Will see an ENT this week and hopefully get some tips on repositioning.

I see that your granddaughter has had surgery and that is a blessing that they have done this so soon.  Hopefully, it will be benign and no further treatment will be necessary.

Thinking of you.  Please don't quit our Forum.  I still think of you as my mentor........

((hugs))  Susan

Congratulations, Paul, on your 4th month of being a non-smoker.  Can you only imagine how happy your lungs are to breath in fresh air and not nicotine!   

I believe I told you that I could almost immediately "smell" the earth and flowers.  So much better!

A wet, soggy week here in Ohio.  The green grass looks like pictures I have seen of Ireland.  The HOA is doing their mowing despite the wet grass.  I just shake my head in dismay.

Carry on... One day at a time.  Always aware that just ONE ciggie, can make you buy a pack.  Always post a HELP here....anywhere on the website.  I did that once as I was going to walk out the door.....I spend half a day responding to all and the urge did pass.

Hi Denim,

Nice to see you posting to all ~  Been away a bit......my computer may be slowly feeling it's age...lol...just like me.  I am afraid to tell my son-in-law who is a "coder" because he will surely laugh at the laptop's age and order me a new one.  Well, maybe that won't be so bad.

A bit of a scare with vertigo... Oh my.....

Left the area to visit Jim's daughter in Bexley, Ohio.  I noticed the lilacs, dogwoods and azaleas were in full bloom down there.  Here.....not so much.

Carry on.....great to be able to smell the dirt and the hyacinths..

Susan

Hi Ernie,

I think you may be away for a while....on vacation or am I just getting too old to remember things.

A bit of a scare with Vertigo.....but so far nothing since that one day.  Plan to see a ENT this week.....and there are techniques to dislodge the tiny crystals in your ear.  Who knew.   I will only tell you that it was at Jim's insistence and the spinning that made me ride in the ambulance.  They must see enough patients because the EMT gentlemen had me diagnosed by the first five minutes........

Hopefully all is well.  We will all keep Miss Kitty's grandson's wife in our prayers.  

Susan
