Spidey's mom

Hello all! I'm in a 1st Day of Summer mood (June 20) and thought I'd check in on ya'll. Also, Happy Fathers Day. Our tradition of root beer floats will happen later this evening. Nice here - warm, not humid, great weather to work in the yard (I did) and walk to a local waterfall (I also did). My last child, Spidey (aka Danny) graduated high school two weekends ago. I'll be an empty-nester in August when he heads off to college. We spent the last two days watching him play Legion Baseball here in CA and Oregon. We have no positive cases of Covid-19 up here but in our entire county, we only have 81. Most are isolated or quarantined at home. That's a short version of my life. Nice to read about all of you guys.

I put this reply on April 1 . . . as herring pointed out, I played an April Fool's joke on myself! . Copy and paste . . . Yooo whoo . . . decided to check in on y'all. All is pretty well here in California related to the Corona Virus and Covid-19 cases. Here in my county, we had 24 positive patients for a week and then added one more two days ago. Two deaths. So far so good up here in the mountains with zero cases and zero deaths. We are in the same county but rural and 1.5 hours from the bigger city. Low census for hospice. I get out and walk to the local waterfall 3-4 times a week. Also take the dog for a walk. And the last two days I've been doing major yard work, cleaning out flower beds, putting in mulch, mowing the lawn. We all check on my mother-in-law at the ranch. She's doing well, even with her Parkinson's diagnosis. Spidey is of course disappointed in school being out as this is his senior year and his beloved baseball season is kaput after two games. He's very busy working a couple of jobs though. And yesterday he went kayaking with friends on a local creek. That's about it. Glad to read up on the good morning threads and see the old gang still here. Hope you all are well. Steph

Oh dear . . . it's been awhile since I've been here! It was the first thread up on the "What's New" page. Oh well . . . maybe I'll copy and paste it on today's thread!

we aren't perfect over here my dear. :d don't hold us up on a pedestal. :lttang: "snarky" :icon_rolland "passive aggressive" :coollook: live here too. they just blend in better. :igtsyt: don't let it get you down though when you feel that "gotcha" feeling . . :gtch: we are pretty good at forgive and forget. :cheers: :kiss

I was shocked that you were called on comments you made . . .I think that is not cool. I'd never diss you or Neil. And I'll put up my pink dukes against anyone who does. :up: Sorry for the misunderstanding . . .it was late, I was under the influence of buckets of nacho cheese and chili and tortilla chips. Those fumes can kill ya!:eek: (Worked in the 4-H concession stand at the bullriding event last night). Hey, Merle is playing with Kris Kristofferson locally . . .. I'm hoping to snag some tickets! Wanna come along?:D (p.s. Merle lives locally by the way - I've run into him twice out in the community and I'll have you know I didn't drool or make a fool of myself at all).:coollook:

A very sincere thank you - sorry for hurting your feelings. :redbeathe :coollook: steph

YES! Not cool.

Not meaning to insult . . .. .but . . . . yeah.

Ummmm . . . that's more than a rumor. :coollook:

Nope . . .. .I'm a dinosaur. :D
