"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Hi Y'all - Dutchy and Alex are right - so that makes dj right...I am on a road trip. We went to Dauphin Island today - will go to Guld Shores tomorrow then on to Pensacola, FL Saturday - they are all just an hour or less from Mobile...so we can always come home at night - which is nice. The boys are going to spend the night with my brother and sis in law tonight so Mama and Daddy and I will just get to hang out and rest - nice. Then up early and off to the beach again tomorrow.

Thank you Iz - LOVE YOUR PICS - they are beautiful...you have such a great eye.

Thanks FQ - hugs hun - take care of you.
Going to help my Mom with supper -

mis

Ha - he is the lesser spotted black shadowed kitty-titter!



Great to see everyone here and to see the yip yap yop going on.

Have had a bleugh day today - yep - I know I know - too much over the last coupla days - that'll learn me!!!!!!! It was another gorgeous day and I couldn't do a thing - hate that. Everything hurts. So, had the tears and the tantrum - taken the meds and hoping tomorrow will be better. YAY for the plaster coming off tomorrow and hopefully I will be driving soon - oh big huge YAY for that.

Babbling has taken her exams and is showing her strength and courage when faced with the most awful of "happenings" in her life. She's a tough wee gal - power of love to her. x

TC - I read you weren't well - so - GET BETTER SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a? Hope you feel heaps better tomorrow girl.

DjjD - hey to you - enjoy your sunshine - 'tis chilly here in the evenings - but the days are warming.

BEAgle - have a wonderful trip to PL - let us know you get there safe and sound and we'll hope to hear from you whilst you're up there fishing with the lad. HAVE A GREAT TIME! Love to M&K and g-kids.

Boida - hope you managed just a tad of a sound today - wishing for you to be "oh so vocal" - remember, we have a phone conversation to take place!

Alex - so good to see you - yep - think our Mis is in Mobile right now and also taking a trip to FL - hope she checks in to see your post - know her journey down there was a "when are we gonna get there" journey. She made FQsis laugh! Twenty degrees - I think thats the cold twenty not the warm twenty. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Warmer days to you love.

Sis - love you - thanku for listening and can't wait to see you next weekend even if it's only an hour or two. Can't wait. Make that phonecall tomorrow and I'll hopefully talk to you on the way back from hospital. x

Blue.... miss yoooohooo! xox

Thinking of y'all and hoping everyone's gonna have a great weekend.

HEY MIS - oh we cross posted. YAY for you too darlin' Dixie - enjoy enjoy and make the most of the R&R time. x

oh........ just realised it's not the weekend yet - 'tis Thursday - so hoping everyone will have a great Friday before the weekend - DOH!!!!!!!!

No sound whatsoever. Sigh.

Hey, y'all. I'm back and finally alert enough to post a bit. I'm getting too old for these marathon bashes, but it was a BLAST!

I haven't read back but here are some hugs for those who need them or want them, hey's and hi's to everyone else.

Oh cr@p a? BOIDA!!!!!! big sigh... I almost heard it from across the pond!

It is so hard when you wanna be heard and all that comes out is "silence" - even when you have voice. Horrible feeling - isolating when you need to communicate and can't utter a dickeybird.

So... plan of action. yep, I know, here I go off on one of my little ridiculous bits ..... but bear with meplease .... it's daft..... but you never know! What is your favourite colour? Mine is green .... well of course with a tinge of blue.... jade'ish teal...! Hahahaha

So... yesterday I took a photo - I was having a green day - today, when I uploaded them - there were teardrops - we have a few of those with our crew right now.

So...... right now - here's a B&W photo with the lightest hint of green in the tear drop drew drop. Now, the plan is to get all the colour back in the photo over time. We can't have it starting with zilch, there has to be a little colour to spread out across the photo..... so there's a just a tad there to get ya going.... and hopefully, as would happen with the drop as it falls down - the colour permeates through as you start to regain some sound - even just a smidgen - when you do - the colour of the photo will regain some of its green.... or red or blue... whatever colour you like. Wanna humour me?????? Go on - I have could do with a little humouring. I see feelings in images - it's the only way I can express myself at times.

So.... here's your pic - Boidas pic vocaliseanimagepic - starting off with a sigh but with some hope.



Nothing to lose... only a gain in Izzies little fantasy world of positive thought and fairytale endings..... bruhahahahhahahahhahahaha!


(hey, no worries - no pressure - I'll keep it going to you can shout at me to stop..... could be a while a???????





edit: JPB yay for you too - glad you had a fanjazbulous time and got tired - that means it was so worth it. Love it. Love you. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx oooh.... I'll take a hug please. x

Izzie, just ran across your images.

Gobsmacked.

Stunning.

Hope you're picking up.

YAY for SPIKE (and thanku) - how are you gal!!!!????? Good to see you. Haven't seen you around for a while and was so worried with the fires on the Prom. I take it they have all died down now - hopefully the rain will encourage the new growth quickly and life will return to "as normal" as it can be. I believe you also had friends who lost loved ones - terribly hard, soul destroying.

It's so very good to see you here. Fine bunch of people sailing around these waters here - lovely of you to join us - pull up a lounger on the deck when you wish and come and have a cuppa tea!

I put most of my pics on Roberta's Beautiful Animals thread and MsOlgas Cat Room 2 - ha the crew here have seen "boids" and "bugs" and most of the leaves and dewdrops in my garden.... hahahaha - they haven't complained yet - so shall keep on posting - makes me happy looking through a dew drop!



SO.................... GOODMORNING...... you would never guess what happened. I keeled over on the sofa at whatever time last nite and awoke at 4.10am this morning - crawled up the stairs (somehow) and went to sleep until 6.30 when the little fellas alarm went off and a new day started. He's gone to school now (his father picked him up to drop him to school coz he's off to Korea and China for a bit - ho hum) - and little fella is spending the weekend at school. It's the last weekend of term and they are going to one of the real large towns shopping (big treat), then to SPLASH (swimming), then to the beach and on Sunday they are having a big BBQ and Easter Egg Hunt with the gappies dressing up as chickens and challenges set for the little kids in teams. GREAT weekend for them. They break up from school on Friday then. It's Mothers Day this Sunday - but... he'll be having a ball and you know.... you know.... s'way it is. BigBoy is on "I don't have a Mom" mode right now - so....... hey ho - keep busy.


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOW - EXCITEMENT IS MOUNTING - THE PLASTER COMES OFF TODAY - Yay to see my bionic foot and a straight toe. HA - y'all will see it too (it looks better this time so DON'T PANIC) - the sun is just rising above the trees, beautiful mist rising from the ground and I'm going to take a quick wander down to the river. Kitties are outside catching bees (oh nooonoooonoonooooooooooooo) - oh, if ya'll could just see the mist rising from the river. oooooooooooo..... plan...... dunno if it will work.

Thinking of our Babbling and db and those who needs hugs and posivibes. Not sure if Babbling has exams today - she's got 6 in the bag - clever clever gal.

TC - feel better. MIS - ENJOY!!!!!

BEAgle - safe trip darlin' - let us know you get there OK - you know how I'll worry bout you else! Love you. x

Lovin' y'all - have a great great day. x

It just so happens, Miss Izzie, that my favorite color is green too. A rich emerald green, like the color in the pic. I'm stunned by this, Izzie. And grateful. And smiling (silently).

Excellent Goil - well, you let me know when you have the faintest of a whisper and we'll add a little more green to your "vocaliseanimage" - then when you can shout (even a little one) from the rooftops - you'll have a whole green world in a dewdrop before you. Coooooooooooooool.

Beyond cool.

Hi Izzie, you do a warm line in welcomes thanks. I'm actually not a very social butterfly so I'll sit over here in the corner most of the time. I'll bring a cheering brew to share.

Your photography, that I've seen, has an "odd" quality, visually stunning, and I've found myself moved to tears looking at a few of them. Not sure how you do that. Good trick. I plan to check out the others.

You seem to be going through a series of wringers at the moment. Keep your pecker up. Catch ya' later.

Hi spikepipsquak we have met on another thread, however I wish to join Izzie and welcome you aboard this unusual ship and its motley crew. Hope you will enjoy your stay and add your special wisdom with an odd post here and there.

Captain wishing you well for today's happening, hope the news is all good. Promise to be in touch once I hit P/L. Well the bosun will retreat to his bunk shortly as an early start is planned for tomorrow morning. Good night.

Have fun, enjoy .... and recreate, Dutchy!

Thank you Walter I intend to do just that.

I AM A PENGUIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I walked…. Like a pingu!!!!!! Just a little - but I took my first steps again and (ouch ouch ouch) I did it unaided.

Whole lot of stuff rattling round in my head now from a long talk with the surgeon (’nother time)- but right this minute I am Happy Feet and Ima stepping back out into the world.

Not sure when I will be comfortable enough to drive…. maybe tomorrow hahahahahahahaha! Oooooooooh…. So excited.

Anyhooooooooooo… being me of course, gotta do the stark raving mad pics…

Plastered




Off



OH OH OH



FEET……………….. Nah……………. They look disgustingly horrible !

But of course, pingu feet at river






And in water - yay for water - can’t tell you how cold the water was….. No, really, can’t - my feet were numb in about 1 second flat! F F F F F Freeeeeezing! Yay!






And just to top it all off….

angels on violas…







Or perhaps a Blue heart Down Under a?



How topsy turvy life can be!



So good to see so many folk here - silent or loud…. “loud… who’s loud?”…. Oh, that’ll be moi!



K So………… I am knackered and going to lie doooooooon for a wee rest! Back a bit later. x



One nite in Dublin.... rockin' the blues

lalalalalalallalallallaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalalalalalallalaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Here's some wading music for ya:

(Congrats by the way!)

Hi Captain, brilliant piece of posting, have framed them feet! Now bring on the tango and away we go. Happy you're home safe and well. Leaving in 2 minutes, au revoir, smooches and hugs.

Uncasted tootsies and flowers with faces. Thanks for the pics, kid. Now, you take it easy. And enjoy the newfound freedom.

Those toots look damn good, actually!

I'm so glad you're able to walk again, Iz.

Lovely angels too.
