    Good morning friends, a cold day ahead with sunshine and showers. Maybe I’ll get my plants and bulbs planted this morning.

    Hugs to all under the weather including Nancy, who I hope to see back online soon.

    The charger company didn’t contact me with a date, I’ll try again on Monday.

        Good morning, Doug.  I hope you get your charger installed soon.  I think DIL had hers installed without any problem.

        I finally succeeded in returning the dining room to its original purpose with all my art supplies packed away.  If I don’t do any more paining between now and Christmas it should stay nice and tidy. #notgonnahappen.

        We’ll have most of the clan gathered here tonight for the birthday celebrations.  Favourite uncle will of course be the guest of honour, and they will stay overnight before heading back to the Midlands.  Miss A and the boys and their parents will go home tonight, so we won’t need to be up at 6.30am.

        Greetings to all.

        Good morning QS, sounds like a good get-together this evening. We rarely have anyone around these days, most of our close friends have died. I’m busy making new ones at the U3a.

            That’s the beauty of groups like U3A Doug.

            Good evening all.

            I went to Bunnings Garden Centre this afternoon, with Alan, he pushes the trolley. I bought several pots of daisies, a new pot for indoors, Sweet William, Calibrachoa.  I also bought some solar lights.  I didn’t have time to take a photo, because when we got home, we had to race out the door for my walk for the Flying Doctor Service.

            Dinner will be late tonight.

            Doug, I do hope you get hold of the charger people on Monday.

            Q.S.  have a fabulous get together.  I am sure it will be a blast.  Do you plat games after dinner?  The missionaries played Air Simon after dinner last night.  It was fun watching them.

            Still working on wordle.

            Good morning JJ, the Galahs are having their way.

            Hope the walk goes well.

                    :bye: everyone,

                    A lazy early morning for me. My sister is home, Brian is at work, and no driving the boys. I’m still in my nightie and I’m not going to start my chores until 9;00. :D

                    I’m starting my fall deep cleaning today doing one or two rooms a day. Today is the upstairs bathroom and our bedroom. I’m not doing the closets until after Xmas. Over the next 10 days (if I can keep to my schedule) the whole house will be clean and ready for winter and Xmas decorating. Other normal weekend chores are also on the list.

                    I have never seen weather like we have been having. We still haven’t had a hard frost and even the hanging pots are still blooming. Usually by this time everything is brown, the gardens are cleaned out, and we have had a couple of snows that stayed a few days. I have to pull the gladiola and Dahlia bulbs for storage but you are supposed to wait until the foliage dies back. No sign of that yet. I even have an Iris that is putting out a flower stalk. It is as confused as I am. :scratch: I’ll have to cut the grass this week again before the Halloween decorations go up. We have had an extra month of growing season so far this fall. I’ll hope for an easy winter. :crossfingers:

                    It was good to hear about Gail and hear from Sharon. My thoughts and best wishes are going to them as well as everyone else not well or struggling.

                    The doctor’s office called saying my cholesterol is up for the first time ever. They wanted to know if I was going to try lifestyle changes or wanted to start statins. I chose lifestyle changes. I hope it works. :crossfingers: I’ll start with oatmeal for breakfast. :good: Enjoy your weekend everyone.

                        Good Moring!!

                        It’s been raining over night, don’t think as much as in some neighboring areas but better than nothing. Supposed to carry on until afternoon, a high of 12C Looks dull.

                        My neighbor’s Periwinkle has started to overtake my garden, so yesterday afternoon after coiling the watering hose back up I started and worked on it for 1 1/2 hours, so today my back is burning and my arm and shoulder hurts. Well, thanks to the rain I can rest them both today.

                        Laundry day and coffee klatsch day :good:

                        Doug, they are sure taking their time with the charger.

                        QS, a house filled with festivities, it will be wonderful and a lot of work :-) Too bad you had to clear off your art supplies, you were in the swing of things, you will be reluctant to bring them back out.

                        JJ, looks like you and Alan had a good time and, of course, the missionaries felt playful after such a nice dinner!! One of the Galah’s got out of bed on the wrong foot :-)

                        Lulu, let’s hope the new Prime Minister works out perfectly. Yes, we have been on Wet Canvas for along time, I think I joined right after I retired in 2002.

                        Hi Bill!!

                        Ellen, you are not happy unless you are really busy so happy times are ahead :-) Wonderful that you are having such an extended Fall.

                        Betty, I ordered your suggested book from the library. Nice that you are curling again!!!

                        Lynn, I took that bone density medication for a while and decided the misery was too strong, like you I already have enough inflammation without that addition. I too drink additional milk for the calcium and the protein. Same here about Third Age Learning, just lectures, but we do have an active Senior Center, just not enough rooms to extend it.

                        I don’t watch news about the Ukrainian war and won’t watch about this last one either, too much misery and there isn’t a thing I can do about it.

                        A good Saturday to all…..59° this morning, high today of 69° called for with mostly cloudy day.

                        Will start working on the planks today.  Underlayment is in place and secured.  Going to have to rework the bottom trim on the columns.  Will cut and remove the pieces necessary and once the finish top is in place, then I’ll modify the trim and reinstall to get the nice clean finished look.

                        Was up at 0400 having a lot of kidney pain…..tried Tylenol, not much relief, so I took a 10mg Codon. Hate taking those, but I needed some relief. Most of the morning’s going to be shot….won’t use any power tools till my head clears.

                        Gonna go lay down, pretty much anything I planned on posting or comment on, is lost in the Oxy fog.

                        Be good, do good….

                        Steve.

                        I am so sorry you are in such pain Steve.  Hugs.

                            Sorry Steve ((()))) I was wondering what the doctor said about it, obviously nothing helpful.

                            I think this is the weekend of Anita’s hometown visit. Anita I wish with all my heart that you are having a wonderful time!!!!

                            Nancy, hope you are doing fine!!!
