Good morning everyone!

Island of the dogs huh? Interesting.

I'm glad the test is over Myself.

Hot! Hot! Hot here. I think our heat index is supposed to be over 110 degrees.

My son is spending the night at his dad's so I get some alone time. I'm going to enjoy doing nothing! Lol!

I hope everyone has a great day!

Hi All. I'm happy to report that I had a good day today!!! The town that my therapist lives and has her practice in had a town wide tag sale. So, I went with my friend and her husband. I thought it would just be good to get out, but I had a really good time. I bought close to 20 cd's in real good condition and they ranged from .25 to $1.00 each. What a bargain!!

Tonight I'm at home doing some cleaning. I've got a lot of work to do tomorrow to.

Just wanted to check in and say hello!

Cass

PS: it is hot, hot, hot here!

Have you ever wondered
When sign makers go on strike, is anything written on their picket signs?

What men really mean...
"Can I help with dinner?" Really means...."Why isn't it already on the table?"


Do you know?

Previous questions & answers:
6) The Canary Islands are named after what animal? *Dogs
Although it might seem logical, they're actually not named for the little yellow bird commonly known as the canary.
Instead, the islands get their name from a Latin term — Insula Canaria — which means “Island of the Dogs.” The ancient Romans who first visited the islands gave them this name.

Good morning all!!!

Joyce it is so wonderful to have you back. I look forward to your interesting posts every morning. No pressure though, right???

I will have to find out what a camel's brush is made of.

I hope everybody has a good day today. I hope to walk this morning. Cooking a beef roast in the crock pot today. Yesterday's chicken alfredo turned out good...

Hugs, Karen...

I keep seeing squirrel and pony hair. Not sure if it is a brush for a camel, or a camel hair brush. Ha!!!
Posted 8/2/2015 11:16 AM (GMT 0)
You found a good answer, Karen. Now, if you could find WHO named the paint brush. Haven't been able to figure that one out. Maybe a Mr. Camel?

Time to get going for weekly grocery shopping. See you later

Thanks Joyce, Have a good time shopping, if that is possible. Ha!!!

Hi All. I've got some exciting news to share. My Praxis score came in this morning for the first part of the test I took. I PASSED!! Thanks again, Karen for helping to calm me down before I went for the test. And thanks Myself for the encouragement. Tomorrow I'm going to start studying for the 2nd part (there are 3) to this particular test.

Hi Adrina, How are you now? Let us know what is going on. Hang in there and know we are here for you.

Hey Jessica!! I am glad you are back, hope you are feeling well.

Hi Cass, Jamie, Myself and everybody else.

I went to town yesterday to get some munchies as our power was out. On the way home I went through a hail storm. Talk about being scared.... When I got home, I saw trees flying in the air...

Lucky I am okay... If the timing would of been different I may have been in a tornado instead of a hail storm, which was scary to say the least...

Glad to be home, got power at 2:30 this morning. Yes I am still up. Going back to bed now...

Hugs, Karen...
Posted 8/3/2015 7:34 AM (GMT 0)

Previous questions & answers:
5) What is a camel's hair brush made of? *Squirrel fur
Camel Hair does not come from camels at all. It is found in watercolor and lettering brushes and usually is made of squirrel, goat, ox, pony or a blend of several hairs, depending on the desired softness and intended cost of the brush
…..AND, thanks to KAREN, the inventor of the brush was Meng Tien, a Chinese savant, in 250 A.D. to perfect his Chinese lettering skills.

I looked it up, but going to see if anybody else does too. If not answered by noon, I will answer. I feel like I am hogging the puzzles. Ha!!!

How are you this morning Joyce? I had a scary day yesterday. Glad it has settled down. Will access the damages in the daylight.

Hugs, Karen...
Posted 8/3/2015 11:14 AM (GMT 0)
Good morning!

Karen- scary!! I'm soooooo glad you are ok. I hate driving in bad weather.

I went out to eat with a friend last night and we laughed and laughed! I was so glad she was available for dinner. I fleel I have been isolating myself so getting out really helped me.

Off to teach! Everyone have a good day!
Posted 8/3/2015 11:14 AM (GMT 0)
Oh, that hail storm DOES sound scary, Karen.
I've only had that experience once...and that was enough.

Hope you don't have much damage.

(look forward to your quiz answer...eventually)

~ Joyce
p.s.
I'm OK...thanks for 'asking'.
Posted 8/3/2015 12:02 PM (GMT 0)
I didn't know anyone was interested on how it's going for me. I'm 'surviving' on Klonopin at the moment. I had to give up my apartment (I have no home at the moment!), my work isn't as good anymore. People tell me I'm rude all the time (which I wasn't aware of and didn't mean it), cops were called on me to put me in the ER and I was almost locked away. I don't want to be locked away because I'll lose my JOB, my HEALTH INSURANCE, and my MEDICAL TREATMENT for colitis. I'm lost.

Sorry to hear of your difficult time Andrina. Hope things improve for you soon.

The latest installment of "The Bed Bug Saga"...I had to get rid of 2 cabinets from my bedroom...too much evidence of dead ones and they were made of that press board stuff, can't really clean them well enough, not worth the risk.

The part they sent for my truck was the wrong part. They sent another one...right box, but what was in the box was NOT the right part. Now, I have to wait until Friday, hope they get the right thing, then see when my son will be available to install it. Sigh.

I just want to cry, curl up in a ball, shut down. Can't though...too much to do. Making a lot of effort to enjoy the goldfinches coming to the sunflowers, take time to laugh, keep balance. Knowing I have friends that care helps, so, thank you all for the good thoughts you send out for me.
Posted 8/3/2015 5:13 PM (GMT 0)
Hey Joyce, Is it that the October Revolution is November 7 in Russia???

I think it is right...

Andrina, I am sorry you are in such a tough spot right now. Do you see a therapist? They can help you through this.

Pitmom, So sorry too for what you are going through. I hope things resolve. I am glad you have the beautiful Goldfinches to enjoy.

I hope you all have a good day today. Nicer here, cooler. about 70 or so. I love this weather.

Hugs, Karen...
