@22hicks, I sure hope it didn't damage those beautiful gardens of yours!

Thanks @Lynn49 - it did some, but the storms aren't over yet. Another going on right now. Most plants are either bent, laying down, or, some branches have broken off. We'll see when all's said & done. A few warm, sunny days should bring most of them back, I hope.
Even too much rain for our pets.

Thanks for the "HeadsUp" about the "Food & Drink " release.
Hicks, too bad about your garden, but home it will come back even better!

I am so tired I can hardly think. But the cataloging woman and the photographer were here from 9 until almost 9. Boy did they work hard and made my stuff look appealing. There are 64 lots. So hope that's enough to generate the fee. It will be released on the site on June 28th and bidding will end on July 11. Pickup on Jul.12.

I am taking the next two days off ( kind of). Got to go see a lawyer in Kitchener and also my new dr.

Re-introduce the dogs to each other anddog-to at again.

Also, it's my friend's birthday. So out for supper. But, I can SLEEP IN!

Now when I pack something, it's actually going with me.

Well, I am going to watch America's Got Talent. So many beautiful stories and so much talent!

Wow @avoncallingu , considering all the work you & your friends have done, for those 2 to spend 12 hours cataloguing & photographing, it darn well better pay off, in spades.
I'm glad you have a 'relatively' light few days, you so deserve it.

Personally, I felt the same as you, so sore I could hardly move. I slept in yesterday, and felt better than I had in a very long time. However, it didn't take much to set me back again. I had 10 - 10 foot tables for my sale. My son came by tonight, and we loaded them into the truck; returned them to the church & had to carry them up the stairs, down a corridor and into the hall, sliding them under the stage. Now my back, hips, and shoulders feel like a car drove over them. So, I guess tomorrow will be a day of rest & recuperation.

Now that all your lots have been sorted and almost ready for auction, that alone should be a huge burden off you shoulders. That, along with a couple days rest, will hopefully help with all your aches and pains.
Time for some 'Me Time' for you.

[avoncallingu]

Oh Hicks! My muscles were aching just reading about how far you had to "schlep" those tables!

I now have to make sure all the utilities get turned on and billed to me. Amazing- I had been with Union Gas about 15 years ago and they could still look up my record which was good enough that I didn't have to pay a security deposit. A little ceepy that "Big Brother" has taken over our lives with barely a squeak out of us!

This on-again-off-again really angry clouds and rain makes dressing and walking the dog a challenge.

Well I am going to try to relax and not spend hours planning what I have to do "first -thing-in-the-morning"

Good night.

[22hicks]

Good to hear @avoncallingu - Isn't it nice not have to plan every waking minute.
I think tomorrow, you'll feel like today was a very good day.
I hope so, and that every1 else had a nice day.

Guy on youtube responding to comments. Guy: Hey you guys are way too harsh on Gunner. You make him do all the grunt work, setting up, cleaning, tearing down. It's not fair, you guys should do some of that work yourselves.

Youtube guy: Well gunner is our assistant, so he is assisting us. Lol

I hate these people out there that get pissed when someone has an employee do the work they get paid to do. Yeah that's why they hired this guy so he can do the work they didn't want to do, it's called a job.

[danger_dan]

Good morning Fam.

Good morning everyone, I hope U have a lovely day!

[avoncallingu]

Happy Summer, everyone! Enjoy every minute of this longest day of the year!

Bring on those "Lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer........ those days of soda and pretzels and beer"!!!

Morning test (and no cheating by using your search engine) Who sang that? - 'cause I can't remember. .ha!

Now, have to consult the weather channel to see what to pack-- rain togs or bikini (oh, that will be the day!)

Has the atmospheric pressure gotten lighter because I feel a distinct weight off my shoulders this morning?😉

Well, migraine meds are kicking in and I have "Miles to go before I sleep and promises to keep."

I will speak to you from Cambridge next.

Adios amigos!

[22hicks]

Good morning every1.

I told you @avoncallingu - I knew you'd feel lighter today.

Cool formation video of 787 and 737 showing not only great flying but also the size difference. Having been in both many time I found it very fun to watch

I worked for a time close to the end of Heathrow's runaways, I used to see a lots of planes every-day. Concorde was incredibly loud at times.

I also worked close to RAF Fairford so I got to see at lot of military aircraft too.

LHR is one of my fav airports. I have spent many months (in total) at LHR or nearby hotels.

It would have been so cool to see the Concorde before it was shuttered! So cool you got to see it and the RAF!
