Somebody commented on one of my FB pics of tomatoes from the summer and flung a craving for fried green ones on me, so I fried me a can. 

[MelodyB]

Ok...thats TWICE tonight you have made me want fried green maters.


*sigh*

[SippinTea]

Oh man. I never did get fried green tomatoes ONCE since last summer.  And I like them. A LOT. *sniffles sadly*

So. This place you guys were talking about a couple pages back.... I'm afraid to ask. And I'm afraid to google. So I guess I shall remain ignorant. *grin*

[Lynx]

I googled.  Don't bother.  It's a "naturist" camp, i.e. a nudist camp.

Hey Isaac, when you get a minute, check your email. I sent you a pic about that mug cozy idea for your grandma.

Lord. I coulda used Heather being around here today.. Last night, domino, our chihuahua, began walking funny and crying if anyone touched his back. As soon as the vet opened this morning we were there. Diagnosis- he's popped his back out, probably from jumping onto and off of the furniture. So it's steroid shots and pain pills, which the vet said works about 60% of the time. That and complete bed rest which he will hate.
If they don't work it's a $3,000 surgery- or bye, bye domino. I can't afford the surgery and don't have the heart or will power to let my little buddy go. PLEASe pray that the shots do the trick. I know he's just a dog, but he's our baby....and Chey would be heartbroken, in part because my dad bought Domino for her. She's lost her Papaw and her Nana in the last three years, and to lose Domino would be terrible on her. And me, I will confess.

I know dachshunds have trouble with their backs, but I didn't know chihuahuas did. 

[Roscoe]

I know dachshunds have trouble with their backs, but I didn't know chihuahuas did.

Neither did I.... My sister just paid to have that surgery done on her dachshund, which is overweight and long.....Domino is very svelte- he only weighs 7 pounds- and active. I never dreamed he would have these kinda problems.

[Chseeads]

Troubles, we've got 'em, heartaches aplenty.....

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Hello. Cloudy drizzly day here.

[Chseeads]

Hello, Cloudy Drizzly Day.  Seth, here.

[Heather]

Back problems sadly are kinda common in smaller breed dogs who jump on and off furniture  We've recently had a streak of cruciate (ACL) repair surgeries. And one idiot who a week after having the surgery done on her yorkie decided to take it hiking!!!!! I coulda slapped her...... I pray the current treatment plan works for Domino (even though he is a chihuahua.....lol)

We're on the back end of an ice storm around here.

Just got back from a stereotypical black church funeral. Complete with praise dancers.  The pastor sang/spit the last 15min. of his sermon. 

I have a headache. 

Going to a ministers & wives mtg w/ W.Huntley in a bit.

[Chseeads]

Well you and Wayne have a good time.


I bout caught myself on fire while ago heating up beans on the stove.  I was digging in the spice cabinet above it and my shirt tail was too close to the flame..... 

[Lynx]

Well I'm some better.  At least I don't feel like sleeping for two and a half years any more.  Just in time too, I was needed to run the sound for a memorial service at church.

Gonna go to Jackson and get a mifi (tm) box.  I have to go to Jackson because no AT&T stores closer have one.  The store where I always pay my bill has some of the older model, and they say they aren't allowed to stock any of the latest model (that has a much better battery life) until they sell all of the old. 

That's all the news from here, just in case y'all wanted to know.

[Lynx]

Oh yeah, just for the record:  If you have a "vintage" (older) record player like the one I got off ebay, and you try to use a modern needle with it, modern needles are used to a lot less weight than older needles.  And "vintage" record players don't fit modern counterweights.  Fortunately a stack of washers makes a good improvised counterweight.

Sold donuts today. Sold them all. It was tiring but a good morning.

Got cornbread in the oven, the air conditioning running full blast, and we are fixing to chow down on some beans. Green baby Lima beans that have been cooking all day with onions, garlic and a big ole ham bone. I cut up some additional sweet onion, and bought some more buttermilk. Sounds like a yummy supper to me! Hurry up cornbread!

[Chseeads]

Air conditioning, Lord, ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

[MelodyB]

Seriously. I have been hot all day. It's muggy outside and makes it hard to get cooled off.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

We have a warm front on the way. It's 50 right now but south of us where the front has already hit it is 78. They are talking possible tornados on tue.

[MelodyB]

BTW. I got my fried green tomatoes today. Found a local place that makes great ones! Yummy.

[mini]

Melb, where do you live?

[MelodyB]

Why, Jeremy...a lady never gives her address out to married men.




Pascagoula, MS.

[MelodyB]

Why?
