Thank you, jaycee..lovely!
(((((Hugs)))))
At least it is very warm and fuzzy (mold) in S, Floriduh! LOL
Oh my. What a day. I bet you were really ticked off. I know I would be. Sheesh. Anyway, *hugs* :-)
A day after wildfires threatened high-dollar homes and humble cabins around Possum Kingdom Lake, a shift in the wind sent fires racing toward the towns of Palo Pinto and Strawn south of the lake. They were hoping for a reprieve today with the prospect of cooler temperatures.
On Tuesday night, the town of Palo Pinto, west of Mineral Wells, was under an evacuation order as the fire raced toward the county seat. Prisoners in the county jail were evacuated and county computers removed.
In a last-ditch effort, county employees and sheriff's deputies were wetting down the 1940 courthouse to keep it from burning.
I was so mad that I muttered a bad word. You know...the BIG one.
Your tax dollars at work!
Thats our government at work, Mary Lou! Geeeez~~~sometimes I think they just hire idiots, so they will have someone to blame all their mistakes on! Sorry you had to go through this ordeal after all you’ve been through.
By the way, I love your sweet graphic and I am SO glad to see you! ((((HUGS))))
Gotta relieve that tension someway! LOL!
Yep..you got that right!
(((HUGS))) back atcha!
Yep...then after that I spent $200 on a new mattress pad, comforter and linens to replace the ones the hazmat team either confiscated or sliced to ribbons. One of the quilts that got cut up was a hand quilted crazy quilt that I made about 20 years ago. I couldn’t bear to throw it out, so I folded it up and made it into a bed for Linda The Dog.
We had T STORMS last night, just got the net back up, more heading this way tonight and tomorrow.
It’s 5:30 and looks like 8:00 pm alarms going off in both weather radios.
Where you will never grow old

The closest DMV to me is 30 miles away and then if I had to run all over the place I would have been soooo very angry!
A question...the tags don't go with the vehicle when it's sold? Can you clue me in on that one, please?
Making a bed for Linda the Dog was such a great idea. A bit of comfort for each of you! :)
*Hugs* and prayers to you, my friend!
I hate that about your hand made quilt! So good you made good use of it. By the way, how is your dog Linda? I bet you’re enjoying her!
Oh no...giving your tags away with the car is inviting identity theft! The turnpike takes pictures of your tag, all the gated communities take pictures of it, and the red-light cameras record them as well. Those tags are like your passport or drivers license. VERY personal!
Linda is wonderful!
I have had four dogs in my life, and they have all had such different personalities.
Linda is perfect for me at this stage in my life.
