I'm back for personals. Just wanted to wish Trudy
@taxed4ever a happy birthday before it got any later.

@faerywings I thought after my "story" about Bailey, you all would think I'm coocoo - catchu!! Well, you all KNOW I am. LMBO. That dog was a mess!! He lived to be pretty old for a huge dog, though, and was THE sweetest dog!
I would have cried if I'd wasted time on those shutters then had them poured on!! We still have to Clear Coat them, but it's supposed to rain off and on for the next few days. So, we'll wait.
I didn't say anything yesterday, but my SIL is pretty bad. He thinks it's from the J&J vaccine he got the day before we got the Mederma. He's been to Urgent Care twice - once in Florida, before he came home Saturday and all day yesterday! You don't know how bad this man must feel to go to the ER! He does NOT go to the doctor, let alone a hospital. He's having some pretty bad "symptoms" and then we heard that J&J had been pulled. Last night, the pain in his leg was terrible. They treated him as best they could and sent him home. Nobody will "verify" that it could be from the vaccine. We're all so worried about Roger that we can hardly function. Chuck and I both forgot to take our daily medication yesterday and we both take BP med. He has NEVER forgotten to take his (I'm more scatterbrained than him) and he was shocked at the fact that he forgot. That's how overwhelmed we all are.
They came over after spending all day at the ER and we fed them. All of the kids came too. I think they just all wanted to be together after the whole day. He says he feels a "little" better today. With Roger, who knows what that means.
Okay - Kay
@BrightEyes I forgot to tell you congrats on your summer haircut. That has to feel wonderful! Believe it or not, I think I'm getting mine colored and trimmed Saturday. I haven't had my hair cut for almost 3 years and I went blonde several years ago, so all I have to do is throw some blonde hair color on my roots occasionally. My DD talked me into it - she wants me to get low lights and have a little bit trimmed. I don't want much trimmed, because I wear it up in a messy bun. I trim the ends myself and my bangs. I haven't totally bought into getting the low lights. I don't miss spending the money on my hair. Before I just let it grow and when it was darker - I had to go every 6 weeks and have the roots touched up.
With Covid also went my acrylic/gel nails. I'm completely natural now - I will never have anything put on my nails again. I went through torture getting those "nails" off. I finally got my nails looking decent again but they were almost ruined. Nobody would believe how bad my real nails looked so I took pictures. It's been a long, slow process, but they're getting back to where they look pretty good again. I don't miss that cost either. I do want to go for a pedi every once in a while, though.

@felis how nice to have your sister visiting. Sounds like she's a gourmet chef! That would be fantastic to have somebody cook 4 star meals. My hubby is an excellent cook though so I can't complain. He doesn't do anything fancy, just good ole home cooking. Everybody loves his cooking, too. The family sure does want to come here to eat. I used to cook a lot and he always showed an interest and started having me teach him how to make things. It just kind of grew from there. Now he's the Chief Cook here.
Waving to anybody who I've missed and sending hugs.
