"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Oh we would be stuck as well...makes no sense to spend that kind of money when you get snow that keeps you from going place once every 10 to 15 years! That is probably why we like it so much down here! We just don't get it like that very often.

Monday. Well...it's almost over.

No siesta yesterday. I still need to catch up on my sleep.

Maybe tonight...we shall see.

Sorry to hear about the fires Dutchy - so glad you are getting rain to cool things down. ((Dutchy)) Take care of you.

Izzie - your pictures are lovely. What a pretty school! It's still cold...but not as cold as it was yesterday - so that is good.

Hiya Stormy! You stay warm too!

Hugs to all!
mis

hey jw..... love the new avatar... it's so YOU. How happy is that!

yep, I hear ya re Chi-town schools - we need us one of those snow ploughs... the only thing that can get to our school right now is one of these

ahhhhhh... that's not the school... that's the wee church opposite the school...

hope you will get to rest up soon Mis - I'm in need of sleep too - got to get back into some kinda sleep pattern!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that the school you work at Izzie? It's a beautiful building. Our schools are so blah...boring looking.

Wandeljw...that snow wouldn't stop school here in NH either....but it's doing a real number in the UK!

Hiya back at ya mismi. Are you surviving the southern cold snap? Everyone seems to be getting their share this winter BBRRRR.... I say we all go on a tropical vacation!

I am alllllll over a tropical vacation...Man...being in the warm sand with my icebox full of Corona Lights would be awesome. I am freezing my arse off. Well...figuratively speaking. (so know I set myself up there)

Hey Stormy... was looking for a pic of the school but the pics have kids in so... can't post that...

It's a little stone building surrounded by fields. It's been added onto over the years... only has 2 classrooms and a "hut" where the littlies are taught. One of those classrooms is also the school hall, place for assembly and where the children eat lunch. Very wee and very old.

Hmmmmmmmm... vacation... I'd love to go to an island right now - well, maybe in a couple weeks, I kinda like the snow - when it's gone I'd like to go to an island.


How's things going in your neck of the woods Stormy?


mis... where would you suggest we visit.

and where's the BOSUN... did I miss him again...

There you are... I missed you over the page. Thank the lawd you will get a little respite from heat... now the humidity to cope with a? I wish for you for it to get cooler darlin' - it must be tiring in that constant heat tho I suppose you are indoors for the most part, right?

Will keep warm and safe - waiting for tomorrow - if they're right- we got heap big flakes here... biggun 'n me!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha!

How's Mrs BEAgle coping in the heat? Did you manage to get the connection for the laptop sorted out?

Love ya D. x

I love Cancun. This picture makes me all tingly.


Frenchman's Cove in Jamaica looks AMAZING


Bermuda - once again...tingly.


Bahamas

Need summer. Soon.

OK - that looks gorgeous... do we pick straws now...

and to think people want to come to Florida to get warm.

The Outer Banks of North Carolina are great, and have lots of legends and history.



This is Okracoke Beach. Wrote a poem once about the wild ponies of Okracoke

Georgeob 1 has been there

The school sounds very sweet Izzie. As for school here..eh..it's going ok. I have a large caseload but really good kids. Even my little chair thrower has settled and is having an excellent year (phewww) . Next year more staff cuts though, They are cutting one of my classroom aides to half time..this economy is killing us all .

mismi...I have the limes to go with the Coronas...lets go!

I am good with any of them. Suntan lotion, towel, icebox full of margaritas, beer...whatever...sunglasses...oh it just sounds so wonderful!

How I wish I could Stormy.

Letty - I love Florida Beaches. Sandestin is my favorite. I get down there at least once a year. I didn't know Florida had wild ponies...I wonder why I have never heard that before? How cool!

No need to go go Jamiaca girls, our beaches are equally as stunning, come on down, Dutchy will supply the margaritas, beer and even apply the suntan lotion.

Izzie cool change has really set in, 25 degrees different to yesterday and still lightly raining, so good for the garden. Mrs.B copes well in the heat, let me do all tghe work.

Laptop problems all sorted out and we're up and running.

How sweet of you to be willing to slather the ladies in suntan lotion...such a giver.

Wow...really did cool down there...that is good. I am so tired of being bone cold.

Ha - then it's time to wake up a? <dont do sandy lotion - so wahct out Bosun>

lovely yabbering... I must sleep ... heading for bed... Lovin' y'all


ooooooooooooooooooooh... just about lose my silver slipper....

darn pumkin changing mice!!!!!!!!!!!

nitey nite xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Oh yeah...definite ick factor in sandy lotion...makes my skin crawl thinking about it....although the benefits of a good body scrub should never be dismissed...still...ew.

Sleep good Izzie...sweet dreams.

oh well, I have sworn. The F word. (sorry mis)

the boiler just bust.

i got the manual out...who the heck understands those things - 50 pages of twaddle and bumph). Called the emergency numbers - yeah right!!!!!!!!!!!! they are zzzzzzzzzzzzzing. ho.hum.

why do boilers break at night.

so, i've now ripped the cupbaord apart and managed to turn a valve the wrong way whilst trying to connect the hose, which mildly flooded the downstairs bathroom floor coz my hand got stuck inside the stupid boiler - connected the discharge pipes, hoped for the best, turned the valves and repressurised the system. It took me a while to figure I had to whap up the thermostat for the boiler to turn back on (doh) but it now appears to be working. Phew. Sore hands now and have left the discharge pipes attached for the moment and am hoping for the best. Please let there be heat in the morning. Bloody electrical doodahs - drive me nuts.

K - trying to settle down to sleep shortly - I feel frazzled - tho a little good that I managed to fix it (I think, I hope).

Nitey nitey - Iz<if you need a plumbers mate, don't call me> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
