My thoughts exactly. We can only hope. Although I was hoping to see him go in front of a firing squad-but that probably wouldn`t have happened in my lifetime. I will say though,being an Idahoan now,that they don`t mess around here. Most cases are prosecuted very quickly,where in...

The only boats I really enjoy anymore are pontoon boats. The lake we lived on tends to get very choppy in the afternoon and I felt totally safe on it-even on the couple of times we got caught in waves so high that they were washing over the entire deck. All I was worried about was hanging onto...

I have an unbelievable story about my brother in law`s fall this weekend that resulted in a broken hip. I will start a separate thread for ir-believe me when I say it deserves it`s own thread....

I was diagnosed with breast cancer exactly 10 years ago. It was caught very early and I did not need chemo-just a lumpectomy and 33 radiation sessions. No reoccurrence so far. I do now have stage 4 cancer that started in my liver but it is not related in any way to the breast cancer 10 years...

I`ve kind of dropped off the radar since I posted this thread. Sorry. The Honor Walk was definitely the hardest,yet at the same time most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my life.Rhere were over 300 people who participated.Friends,family,nurses,doctors,many other staff people.Police...

In case anyone doesn`t know what that is,it`s when a patient has been deemed to have no brain activity and are being taken to the operating room for organ removal for transplant. Hospital staff and friends and family members of the donor line up along the hallways to honor the donor and their...

Born and raised in Northern California(just south of San Francisco),then moved to Lakeport,CA 33 years ago,then moved to Idaho 4 years ago. Not really loving it here-way too crowded after living in Lakeport all those years. Miss the kids,grands and greats as well. But the medical care is better...

I am currently on Day 5 of facedown lying after eye surgery.The macular hole repair I had in September did not hold so had to have a more extensive procedure that requires 5 days facedown rather than the 3 last time. It`s not been a good year so far. Lost my BIL suddenly and unexpectedly on...

I am getting this one very soon-probably in the next week or two.It will only be my 3rd-and most likely last.

Bar of soap for me too. Dh prefers body wash.

I was just telling about our first date in another thread when we went to San Francisco. We actually went there all the time on dates-mostly to the Avalon Ballroom. Back then you could walk all those areas with not a thought (1965) but I wouldn`t today. My niece lives in a very upscale...

A new stove!! Pretty excited. Exactly a year ago,the heating element went out on ours-no problem,ordered a new one online and dh put it in.Then it happened again so we ordered another. DH went to put it in and a wire or something was missing-went who knows where. Youngest dd and her hubby were...

Went to San Francisco(about 15 minutes north of us) in his `57 Chevy. I was 15,he was 17. Walked aroun Chinatown,walked around Fisherman`s Wharf and had our first kiss on the Balclutha,a famous boat that was docked there. After that we drove back down by home and went to Frank`s Pizza and...

I was named for my maternal grandmother(although I never go by the name) and I have (and wear every day) her original wedding ring when she married my grandfather (first of 4,possibly 5, marriages:cool:) It is engraved `Teddy to Virginia.....April 6,1919`. It was her 18th birthday.

Make the drive back home from California to Idaho. Planned on staying one more day but Mr. Robinson is worried that the kitties are getting too cold at home. So we`ll be up super early and hit the road to make the 11 hour drive and hopefully get home by dark-or at least shortly thereafter.
