Jeanne, yes that car crashing thing often follows being in the headlights

12:45 am

jeanne314

LOL! I crawl along my country roads, and yet they still careen into me. The last one tore off my driver's side mirror. Alas. Minor damage. No speed involved, ever. They just like my vehicles, I guess.

12:47 am

jeanne314

At a complete stop, twelve of them decided to jump over my hood rather than move a few inches and go around. The hoof imprints were a nice touch.

12:50 am

jeanne314

Last post on the subject, but we are the interlopers; they have had these paths for thousands of years.

12:52 am

harpjane

In my rural town, they have learned to stop and look both ways.

I hope they can all join you at some time.

10:24 am

welki

10:42 am

BzznBea

Sure is a lot of vowels.

10:44 am

welki

10:45 am

BzznBea

Speaking of absent...I notice several players missing.

10:46 am

10:48 am

BzznBea

She moved to Ohio.

10:50 am

welki

i need a scorecard

10:50 am

BzznBea

I only know of her because of a neighbor. Seven degress to Keving Bacon.

10:51 am

BzznBea

Kevin

10:52 am

welki

too bad there's not a way to find out when a player was last online

10:53 am

rururocks

10:53 am

dcseain

indeed, welki.

10:53 am

dcseain

hey yall!

10:53 am

BzznBea

I got the impression

10:54 am

BzznBea

Aloy relocated because of health.

10:54 am

BzznBea

Guess I can ask my neighbor.

10:54 am

welki

if i see scrabs, i'll try to remember to ask her - i think the two of them were/are close

10:55 am

Aloyisius

my ears are itching and I just got reconnected to the internet.. hi everyone! Yes, we did move back to Ohio and are enjoying a glorious Fall.

BzznBea

Glad to see you, Aloy.

10:57 am

Aloyisius

(-: Nice to be back in touch!

11:00 am

rururocks

first time I've ever heard of someone moving to Ohio for their health

11:00 am

Aloyisius

no, it was for hubby

11:01 am

Aloyisius

he uses VA.. and the care he got, or didn't get, in Fla. was sad

11:01 am

rururocks

ah..

11:01 am

rururocks

are you near where they eat dogs and cats? :D

11:01 am

Aloyisius

LOL.. what a hoot

11:01 am

dcseain

Yes, Cleveland district, San Diego district, and Cleveland District are the three best in the VA.

11:02 am

dcseain

that's not right.

11:02 am

Aloyisius

we are very impressed with Cleveland VA.. wow, what a difference!

11:03 am

dcseain

National Capital District is the third one.

11:03 am

dcseain

I didn't quite get enough sleep, and coffee only does so much.

11:04 am

rururocks

you keep weird waking hours DC

11:05 am

dcseain

today I awoke at 08, and went to bed at midnight.

11:06 am

BzznBea

Glad to hear things are better for your husband, Aloy.

11:06 am

dcseain

and since meds were adjusted, I'm doing better mentally.

11:07 am

dcseain

still getting used to functional again.

11:07 am

rururocks

meds?

11:07 am

BzznBea

Same here, dc. I can't believe the difference since I stopped taking one of my meds.

11:08 am

Aloyisius

thanks, Bea.. yes he even has a home health team now. I think the system in Fla. is overloaded with a high population of elderly and not enough medical personnel.

11:09 am

BzznBea

Home health is a great plus.

11:10 am

Aloyisius

he was stubborn at first, claiming he didn't need it.. but now he really appreciates it.

11:10 am

dcseain

:)

11:12 am

rururocks

many doctors cannot leave Florida fast enough with that idiot running the state

11:12 am

Aloyisius

no argument from me, ru

11:14 am

bichon

dcseain

Of my medical friends, only 1 nurse lives and works in Florida.

11:16 am

rururocks

the new condo laws are going to wipe out thousands of retirees

11:17 am

bichon

After my father passed, I got Mom to move back to CT

11:17 am
