[In_The_Wind]

How is everyone this morning?

[billyskank]

1. Hi Joani!

:hi:

I am hoping that I do not become the subject of a shit storm today. :)

[In_The_Wind]

2. It'll settle down sometime.

Look at it this way, when DUers are teasing you they are leaving everyone else alone.

Most of us really love you but I learned a long time ago, you can't please everyone without going nuts trying.

Just be yourself darlin'.

3. Hi Joan

Doing fine in FL. Another sunny day. Thanks for doing the morning thing.

[In_The_Wind]

4. I love Florida!

Waking up to palm trees and spanish moss always makes me hally. You are in one of the favorite parts of my world.

:hi: Will you be out enjoying good weather today?

[fizzgig]

5. fantastic

and i haven't even gone to bed yet

[In_The_Wind]

7. You're up late while I'm up early.

I lose so much sleep playing with my west coast friends and I miss them totally sometimes.

:hi: Do you sleep into your afternoon after being up this late?

[fizzgig]

13. sometimes i nap

but i have to work this afternoon...

oh well, i've worked on less sleep

[In_The_Wind]

24. Sometimes I sleep for 4 hours, wake up and post on DU then sleep again.

Naps help a lot until you can catch a longer bit of rest.

I hope work will be easy for you this afternoon.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

6. Good morning, Joan!

Just getting ready to help the Easter Bunny hide some eggs...

[In_The_Wind]

12. Have fun out there!

[Sugar Smack]

8. Joanibaby!

Hi, sweetness! I loved those pictures of your coming back. So I'm answering your post in this thread! Loved the bird baths especially.

The moonlit, tiki-torch being outside Friday night was beautiful, by the way. :D :yourock: :pals:

[In_The_Wind]

15. Good morning Sugar.

I'm really glad you liked the tour and thanks for reminding me why I did that yesterday. I'm too old to be an arbor-barber. x( My everything aches today! I need a massage. AND the job isn't finished. PLUS, I added Thieves Cleaner to the jacuzzi so it can't be used until it's scrubbed, emptied and refilled. I Just Love Springtime, I Do. I'll be smiling again when I get all my body parts working mostly pain-free again.

[Sugar Smack]

19. You can take a rest just for today!

That's what I'm doing tomorrow, of all things. I have to go to work, of course, but I'm doing all the rest of the cleaning and shopping today. When I get home I can relax!

:D :loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

38. I'm eating cold pizza for breakfast and enjoying it.

Cherie and Jon both tried to wake me for supper last night but I was out cold from all the yard work.
Resting is a bit difficult because my hips an butt hurt. That makes just hanging around impossible. I think coffee might be ready. I'll wait a bit before I start popping muscle relaxants. They can make me sleepy and today is too beautiful to miss!

I know you'll enjoy your pre-company cleaning. How many days until nnns shows up?

[billyskank]

20. Hi Sugar!

:loveya: :hi:

[Sugar Smack]

27. Hi, billy!

:D :hi: :loveya:

[LaurenG]

9. Morning Joani!

I wish a very happy day to you! :hi: :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

16. Good morning, OhioBlues.

Have a wonderful day. It'll be your first as a grandmother. Are you spoiling that child yet?

[billyskank]

21. Hi OB!

:hi:

[AirmensMom]

10. Good morning, Joani!

:donut: :hi: :hug:

Everything's great here! :bounce: How are YOU? :loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

17. Good morning, AirmensMom.

I'm going to start my day with coffee and aspirin this morning. The sun is shining, I'll be trimming a few more branches and moving one passion flower vine back inside today because we will be back down to the mid-30s tonight.

Enjoy your warm Spring this year. I predict that it'll be a little cooler for you next year. :)

[AirmensMom]

23. You have a busy day planned!

I'm glad the sun is shining for you. There's nothing like a beautiful day! :bounce:

You're right about next spring. But MAYBE we'll be in the new house by this time next year. And if it's too cool outside, I'll sit in front of the fireplace and watch the sunrise through the window. :D Meanwhile, I will REALLY enjoy the rest of this spring. It's my favorite time of year in FL. :D

[billyskank]

22. Hi AirmensMom!

:hi:

[AirmensMom]

25. Hey, billy!

:hi: :hug:

Guess what? I might have a pretty good pic ... finally! Harleydad and I did one of those timed ones this morning at the beach. :bounce: I'm uploading now to see how everything turned out. :woohoo:

How are you this morning? :loveya:

[billyskank]

26. I am okay thanks

Last night was a bit stressful. I look forward to seeing your pic. :loveya:

[AirmensMom]

28. I'm glad you're OK now.

Everything OK?

I'm uploading now ... it turned out a little dark (not enough flash). But I can fix it up.

[billyskank]

29. Yes

everything is fine. Thanks. :hug:

[AirmensMom]

35. I'm glad.

:hug: I don't like it when you're not OK.

Here you go ...

[kitkatrose]

11. Tired. I live on the 9th floor

and we had a real fire about 10mins ago. Someone burned some rice and now it's smokey and stinky on my floor (thank you room 919).


EDIT: It could be worse, at least the sprinklers didn't turn on, cuz then I'd have a very soggy room and computer and I'd be REALLY pissed.

[In_The_Wind]

30. I'm glad You Are OKAY! Did you have to run down 9 flights of floors?

Did you have a building full of firemen?
Oh My! That's a horrible way to start your day. :scared:

[kitkatrose]

39. Yeah, running down the stairs

while still half asleep is not somthing I'd recommend. I think we got about 10 firemen. It wasn't that bad since some of the firemen were cute. ;) I was too irritated to be scared; I had more sleep time planned!

[laheina]

42. Wow.

Thank goodness it wasn't worse!!:hug:

[kitkatrose]

48. Thanks.

At least I'm up early enough to do my paper. :hi:

[Deja Q]

14. I think I can say it without the use of any words:

:hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover::hangover:

[In_The_Wind]

32. I'll brighten your day later with some of my own similar experiences.

It'll have to be by PM but I know it'll make you feel better. :loveya: Remember to Be Good To You!

[Wetzelbill]

18. G' Morning

I'm not too bad myself and how about you?

[In_The_Wind]

33. Hey my old pal Bill!

I'm sure looking forward to sharing a beer and a few laughs with you later on this summer.

:pals: How is school going?

[Wetzelbill]

37. Oh school is getting old

can't wait until it ends. Summer cannot come fast enough. :)

Plenty of laughs and beer around these parts. I'm always willing to share too. :)

[In_The_Wind]

40. When will you be done with school. Is there more after this semester?

I'll be a student again after I finish traveling around this summer. I know I'll be looking for a few days of breaks after marathon driving. Beer and laughter with certain DUers sounds like just the right set of ingredients for memories to carry me through next winter.

[Wetzelbill]

43. yeah, next fall

I'll start back up again. I think I have about a year and a half left... something like that.

[In_The_Wind]

58. Enjoy it while you're there.

I've gone back for classes over the last 25 years just because I enjoyed the topic. I was so bummed out when a dendrology class I wanted to take was canceled a few years ago. x(

[Random_Australian]

31. Freude, schöner Götterfunken, tachter aus Elysium!

I love Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, don't you?
Good morning too. Almost 11:00 pm here!

[In_The_Wind]

34. Wow, I had no idea!

I haven't gotten used to the exact time difference with all my friends. I should say ~ I hope you are enjoying your late Saturday (or is it Sunday) night.

[Random_Australian]

36. Of course it's Sunday... oh well who could get mad with a smilie like

that? I think I am enjoying it, but intend not to do a good morning thread at midnight...

[laheina]

41. Hi Joani!!

I hope you have some good plans for today. :)

[In_The_Wind]

44. I'm takin' it easy today.

I may drag one of my house-mates along on a trike ride. We all have leathers so the cool temps shouldn't be a problem if I get us back before late afternoon. I think a few different positions for my hips, back and ass would make me feel better plus the scenery with surely distract me.

How will you enjoy your day today, laheina?

[laheina]

49. I will be cooking.

It's payback for all the years I spent sleeping on the couch while my mother did everything. :)

[In_The_Wind]

57. What's on the menu?

We had pizza last night. I haven't decided what to cook for tonight.

[laheina]

66. I made...

...stuffed acorn squash, mashed potatoes, brown bean gravy,a tossed salad, and whole wheat bran rolls.

Despite all the jokes, it was rather successful. :)

Sorry that this is after the fact. It was a busy day. :hi:

[bridgit]

45. morning there, Joan...

:donut:

[In_The_Wind]

50. please excuse the delay, ms. bridgit ~ twas time for a run thru the suds

How are you this lovely morning? :loveya::pals:

[kid a]

46. cold toes, coffee not ready, ehhhh

[In_The_Wind]

52. It's going to feel better with a hot cup of coffee and a fluffy pair of

socks

[Misunderestimator]

47. Good morning, Joan!

:hi::donut:

[In_The_Wind]

53. Good mornin' , Misunderestimator!

:hi:

[merh]

51. Good morning to you, Joani!

Happy Easter, Happy Spring, Happy Sunday to you! :hug:

:loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

54. Hey! (((merh)))! I wish you the same wonderful time and well beyond ~

We have sunshine and a cool start to the day but it looks lovely.
My trike is begging to be let out of the garage. I think I'll go shopping for something to throw on the BBQ.

[bearfan454]

55. I'm doing good thanks.

And you ?

[In_The_Wind]

56. I'm sipping my third cup of coffee, the 2 aspirin are kicking in nicely.

I may make it out of the house today or I might just send my house-mate to the grocery store.




:hi: I'm glad to hear that you're doing good today. I hope the feelings carry forward into your week.

[southlandshari]

59. Hi Joanie!

I'm wonderful today, reflecting on Easter and all its meaning for me. It is an absolutely beautiful day in central Alabama - I wish you were here!

:hug:

[In_The_Wind]

60. I wish I was there too! I will be there later this year.

I can't wait to meet you.


Today is peaceful compared to some of the holidays in my past.

[Wapsie B]

61. Good morning Joanie!

Happy Easter to you and everyone!


Time for another cup of coffee for me.

:coffee:

[In_The_Wind]

62. Good afternoon, bushwentawol.

[Wapsie B]

63. Cooler than the last couple days.

But no bad storms thank goddess.

Or the yard may stink in a few days.
