hey jw - oooh, was furniture shuffling so didn't see any match - I don't quite understand American Footie... it's all a bit stop start and big shoulder pads
drip drip drop little October showers... llalallllllllllllllalllalla
Whooooooa - 6am this morning and man, was it raining! Have a big 'ole river rushing by now, it's a tad loud - love the sound of it.
MaMaVerby - can it really be 2 years... that just doesn't seem possible does it? Ahhhh, bless your little H-boy. I'm sure you will come up with the perfect gift for him - but ya know what, just being with his MaMa and PaPa will be the best for him. D'ye remember last year and Eby couldn't be there.... well, how life is changing for you all - it's wonderful and so good to read. How is the new job going? Are you enjoying it? Keep that beautiful smile of yours smiling and give H-boy a big smunch from me (((((((Verby Family)))))))
IzYYYY - ha, my 'edge of reason' disappeared a long time ago
Hoping all are well here and y'all will have a gentle week.
((Blue smooches))xox
Thoughts going out to those in Turkey who have been hit by a large earthquake - tragic, so very sad...
... friends will start their bus tour of Britain on Monday morning, hope the bad weather won't affect them to much. Rest well.
Morning BEAgle - the East has pretty good weather right now, a little breezy but not too chilly - as long as they aren't planning on visiting the West, they should be coco. I hope they have a great time. (((D)))x

It's absolutely gorgeous here, bright sunshine and a moderate breeze.
Yep, you've got a good couple days forecast so do make the most of them IzY if you can - I believe it's gonna catch up to you on Wed and Thurs which are looking pretty nasty here too. Friday's looking good tho Might have to do a moors yomp. It's weird that it's quite warm here - quite bizarre our weather!
If this wind continues the trees may be nekkid by the end of the week
That makes me want to cry Verbs. I can't believe our baby is almost TWO! He is adorable. I wish I could kiss on those sweet little cheeks.
Ahhhh Dutchy - God won't fit in my box. Nor would I ever want him to. Thanks for missing me. ((Dutchy))
I am here. Busy weekend. Bachelorette party - I kid you not. I was out until 3:00am in a stretch limo with 6 of my girlfriends. You would have loved to watch it I am sure. Driving sideways does not agree with my tummy after 3 purple hooter shooters though.
I am still trying to recover.
Izzie ((Izzie)) How are you hun? Good to see you. So busy right now. But you are still in my thoughts and prayers. Love you.
hugs to all the crew! Hope you all have a wonderful week.

Ah bless you mismi, you must have heard my prayers and got on line. That box gotten me intrigued, will you fit in it, or does the lower portion prevent that? That Bachelorette party sounds a bit of all right, would have loved to be present, riding sideways or backwards with 6 girls in a stretched limo would be any man's dream. Hope you have fully recovered by now from the hooter shooters, are you sure you had only 3? (((mismi))) x

Hiya verbivore we cross posted, 2 great minds think alike eh, how are you today? What can I say to you to raise your eyebrows? I'll bet you haven't lost an ounce yet, can't keep away from them chocolates can you, I know you're still sneaking one away every now and then when I'm not looking. Have a nice day or chocolate. Mango Mist Resort certainly looks inviting!

@Dutchy,
Naw you stinker. It's my heaving chest that won't make it into that box FIRST. THEN it's my fanny. My hot feet fit just fine.
I told you it goes fast. I MISS my babies. They were so sweet. I like them now too...they just talk back. Which can be horrid at times. Especially the closer to puberty we [edit: THEY] get. ((Verby)) I wish you could have gone with us on the bachelorette fun night out...you would have loved it. I know some crazy wimmins.

Why, I do proclaim - the showers here are mighty big - sounds like Mother Nature is running a bath!
Oooohhh - guess what MILD ASTHMA - the little fella's cough cough coughing warranted a doctors visit, which his Dad took him to thisavo. He's been put one steroid inhaler, which he has to use when his breathing get bad (which it is at the mo), and another 'preventer' inhaler to be used every day, twice a day - and has to attend the asthma clinic in a couple weeks (we're not worried, doc says he may grow out of it).
He had to do a blowy in a tube thing and it only reached 200 and should be at least 350... (which is very surprising being that he's a flautist) but he's in good sprits and other than the cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough cough bark bark bark bark bark bark bark cough cough cough cough and with a big headhurt to boot - we have just had a good giggle with him trying on some skiing stuff...
oh lawdy be, you have no idea how good it is to say that, tho I'm just lovin the colour, this cheap and cheerful gear (which was the only gear available in the town) is a little too SMALL for him (10-12yrs) - yayayayayayayayayayayayayayay - how happy is that!!!!!!!! too small too small too small so we need to get a bigger size - YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY. I've been asking around to see if we could beg or borrow some gear, being that this is a one-off, but sadly... nada luck there - so we'll be going shopping with Charlie and Bear in the city to get him some warmer more robust salopettes and thick ski jacket this week. Then I can say job done and quit worrying about it any longer.
OK - enough of the mild hysteria and joy of joys
Talking of MILED - right now, I would walk 500
+ add an S !

Great news!
Even better, he and his cousin are going to see his brother tomorrow
that's a little double-edged - but, going on the REALLY REALLY positive, I'm delighted for him that he'll get to see his big brother. MaMa is driving the boys into the city as we won't risk him going on the bus whilst his cough and breathing is so dire and she'll have a mooch in the city until they're ready to be picked up and then bring them home - at which stage Charlie et al will be here - so, it's gonna be a great day tomorrow for him.
Now, if he could just stop barking ! Nasty nasty cough.
oh oh... and whilst I'm in a bit of a babbling mode, I'm getting rather excited about a TV series which is starting this Thursday - it appeals to my geeky photographic side - man, I wanna go to the Arctic and Alaska and Iceland and and and <sigh> - a photographer's dream...
