A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffee House 2577

I agree on some of that, there were some shows I could not watch...but the one of how the president ( George W. Bush) delt with everything was most interesting.

Girls are playing and I have to be with them on the sun porch.
( And now Heidi thinks I should make Jelly....now.

Jelly making is something I would not do with toddlers. Now jello is another thing. Along with no cook puddings and such.

those kids are getting good at putting in orders aren't they?

I just cleaned the stove pipes, DH can do the chimney...share and share alike. It's time to start prepping for Winter.

Tina, yes that is what I told her..that it was a lot of work and that Grandma had to just do that and nothing else when do made Jelly.( Did not even bring up the dangers of hot Jelly)

So yes we ended up making Jell-o. Grandma added the boiling water and stirred, and Heidi added the cold water and stirred it...then the other 2 girls stirred as well, so Jell-o was made...Next Jell-o making day someone else gets to pick the Flavor and add the cold water......In the past, we made red Jell-o, Blue Jell- o, Poured some of each out, then mixed the second half of each to make purple...but boy, that was a lot of Jell-o. This way is a lot easier, for sure ! !

My grands won't eat Jello but my DD loved it.

Teddy likes jello. When I don't add anything to it. He got burned out on additives. I hid a lot of healthy stuff in jello for him.

I don't know how to check the time stamp but it's 8:12 PM on the 12th and the last post is from Tina at 9:31 on the 11th. I have a feeling that's not right.

Went to my mothers and step dads today. He's still having trouble adjusting to his new place.

I can't check it right now.....for a day it says "so many hours ago"..I will check your time stamp tomorrow.

Kids are coming here tomorrow after Grandparent's Day

Goodnight, sleep tight.

I am headed to sleep myself.

Yes, my last post says I did it yesterday at 9:31 pm. I didn't. But when I try a fix it either doesn't work or it messes up again within a couple of days. I haven;t bothered with it for a couple of years.
Sweet dreams all.

Happy Friday the 13th. Unless you have Triskaidekaphobia, in which case enjoy kids take over the kitchen day or Blame someone else day or peanut day or any other day you can think of.

I gave up on the time stamp thing.

Tina, I'm blaming everything on something today.

O.k. here goes: I have had a smell of mildew in my bedroom all summer. I washed the small carpets, sprayed the bed mattress with Lysol. Washed the walls with everything including bleach, even replaced the old curtains and I could still smell it. Today I had enough. I moved the furniture out, even took off the baseboards around the room and window. There was nothing...not a spot anywhere.

I started taking apart the furniture...yes, I know I am nuts but I was at my wit's end.

I found it, a large spot of mildew on the bottom piece of particle board under the large dresser. I have no clue why or how it is even there since there is no mildew anywhere else in this house. So, much to DH's dismay he'll find out that I took apart the dresser, removed the piece of particle board and used his sheet of plywood to make a new bottom. I am now waiting for everything to dry...I washed the whole dresser with 'cleaning vinegar' to kill any spores. What a morning.

Long story short...I am not crazy as my DH stated all Summer.

Interesting. Has the dresser been over a heat vent? Glad you found it. Would have driven me crazy too.

I always blame someone else. Life's just easier that way.

Hi all,

Oh that would drive me crazy too, I am better with the OCD stuff now but I would have torn apart the room too....LOL! you should see me redo my large linen closet at least once a week.. everything has to be just so and hubby just grabs stuff and if it gets messy leaves it.. I am always refolding stuff....LOL!

We are planning (if no rain today) to go to the October fest at the park this evening , it will be cool enough then... it's been in the 90's the last few days but cools down when the sun gets down.... hopefully it will have lots of craft stuff , hubby will like the craft beer at least..LOL!

He brought in our family picture frames from old house last week and I have to figure out where to put them and which ones to put up... have a lot of them after 40 odd years....LOL!
well better get to that and see what I can do …. paid all the bills this morning and actually have a little extra this month so may make a trip to San Diego for my birthday … we need so just us time...

Have a good day all...
Nana

No heat vent Sheri...I am still confused as to how it got there.

Have fun Nana.

It's a rare Harvest/Friday 13th moon tonight...beware of werewolves

How wrong is my time stamp that Nana is going to an October Fest.

Finally got a little rain this afternoon. Maybe the humidity will keep the werewolves away.

Hello
First let me say, Happy September, Friday the 13th.

And I too wonder how Nana is going to an " Octoberfest " in the second weekend of September.....

Here is how my time stamp reads: in my prefernces.

UTC-05:00. America/Chicago..11:26 ( pm)..time I was checking this)

Now I will stop as really we all need to be on a conference call together to check the dates and time at the same time, ..BUT you could check the time differences between posts...

however, between our timezones and such, I wonder if that is not the culprit.

If anyone wants me to, I would be happy to have James look into it for you.

I am off to sleep now, Sweet Dreams.

I would love to have James look into it. It is really frustrating. And whatever is messing up my timeline is the same little devil messing with Sheri's because we are showing the same errors in different time zones. It messes with the OCD part of my mind.

Sweet dreams, Carol.

Hi all.

It is a chilly day here....Fall is here to stay. The trees are starting to turn, it looks pretty but that means Winter will be next.

The grands and I are getting out on the ATV to pick apples today...we got to get some before the bears get them all.

Good Morning!
It is bit overcast here.....I wish there was nursery within driving distance for today's festivities.

Good morning. It is festivities keeping me indoors. The Nocturnal Wonderland is a happening event this weekend. The traffic herds us in. I am prepared.

What festivities Junie? I went to a pop up market but didn't buy anything. I don't need anything. Too much stuff.

It's just now 8:00 but I'm thinking of going to bed. I'm tired and don't feel good.

Oops, sorry..what I meant was, if I could find a orchard with a farmer's market, I could have a nice day out..as it were, I stayed home and never got dressed last one of my house dresses.

I have been tired since 8 pm myself...but I am waiting for 10 pm so I can take my meds and go to bed.

I will say goodnight to you all now..Sweet Dreams.

Sweet dreams, Carol.

The tiredness must have been catching. I went to bed before 9 pm.....DH kept asking me if I was sick.

DH has the day off today...so we will be busy servicing equipment and such.

I slept pretty well last night. The last day of this nocturnal stuff at the park tonight and I will be free of it. Yay!

I hope you are not getting sick, Sunny. Hopefully you just needed extra sleep.

I went to bed early (for me) and I am still tired this afternoon.


Tina, glad you will be free of all the commotion now, Tina....also glad that you slept well.

I ended up going to be really early because I didn't feel good. Have a cough. Today has been 6 months since our son died. Not sure why that matters but it does somehow. 6 months seems like a long time when I say it but it seems like yesterday in my head.

It seems like yesterday for me too, Sheri. Prayers.

Continued prayers Sheri. You are not ever alone.

Continued prayers Sheri. You are not ever alone.

Goodnight, sleep tight.

See everyone tomorrow.

Just washed a Kleenex with a load of clothes. Brother.

I hate that, Sheri.
Sweet dreams all.

Good Morning!

Well, Sheri..look at it this way....now you have one more clean kleenex...well unless it was shredded into small bits. I thank goodness for the dryer in those cases.

Good morning. It's cooler today!

I couldn't find the Kleenex to take it out of the washer so I ran the clothes through another rinse cycle, which has worked when I've done this before, but this time it made more of a mess. So I carefully lifted out the clothes and put them in the dryer. Didn't think about it this morning so when I opened the dryer tiny bits of Kleenex flew out the door like fireflies. So today I thank goodness for the vacuum Junie.


91° here.

Wel, yes thank goodness for the vacuum, Sheri. Sorry the Kleenex flew out of the dryer. Usually mine end up being trapped in the dryer lint trap. Sorry you were not so lucky.

86*F here...with a projected high of 95*F.....when it cools down, later this week, it is supposed to get 'down to' 86 for the projected high....... Not that I want winter to arrive, but some fall weather would be nice.

You know, we could go back to beginning our posts with the date and time...surely we can figure out on our own what time zone each of the others are in, so there is no need to add thst, right ?
