Oh boy, hicks, you sound so calm but that must have been scary! Saying prayers for you!

YAHOOLIE! !!! If the Jays can't win it, then I am glad the Astros did! My brother stayed up to watch but I hit the sack in the 7th inning.

Well, we see"The Long Island Medium" tonight at Casino Rama but I think I already had my message from the other side. The alarm went off but I fell back to sleep and I spent the last hour hysterically trying to find my room on a cruise ship so I could pack to get off in time to catch a flight. Finally my mum appeared in the crowd and then I was able to find someone who would help me. She didn't say anything but she was there.

Well before I get hysterical about packing to go to Casino Rama, I had better get moving.

We have to maneuver our way around that awful crash site on the 400 to get there. Up and at 'em, atom ant!

Enjoy the show @avoncallingu ; drive carefully, and thank you.

Good morning!
@22hicks , thank God you didn't need more surgery. I hope that's the last of your trips to emerg and that you and Jake expend much energy just snuggling each other. {{{ gentle hugs}}}
@avoncallingu , enjoy the LongIsland Medium tonight! If you two have a chance, head over to Fosters just about a block from....ohhh..it depends on which theatre you'll be in....but it's on the main drag... for the best food ever!!!

I did manage to pick up all the fruits from BulkBarn yesterday, so I'm all set to make my dark fruitcake laced with Napoleon brandy!

Hope it's sunnier where you all are! Enjoy the day!

Mmmmm.....drool ....^^ dark fruit cake. I'll bet that comes out delicious @Lynn49 .
Weird dream @avoncallingu , maybe the Long Island medium will shed some light on its meaning?
Back safe and sound in your own place again @22hicks , very relieved you did not need another surgery. @flemeth oh man, nice Leafs finish!! Now we need another win tonight too!!

Was both a productive and frustrating morning for me.
I wanted to pick up 3 large sheets of the faux barn boards from Lowes to save DH the trip since he'll be doing all the installation work, but do you think I could figure out how to get the darn Stow and Go bench seat to drop into its' storage spot??
Nope. I could only get it part way collapsed and I checked everything, arm rests up, I even removed the cup holder, it still would not cooperate!!
The guy at Lowes tried too, but he said he did not need it flat, he managed to get them all in well enough.
DD will have to help me carry these in the house...wish I could have kidnapped a Lowes employee to help us....ha ha .

[avoncallingu]

Made it to Orillia. Resting before our trip over to Rama. Poopy driving weather. But looking forward to tonight. We won't have much time to lose much money 😁

[avoncallingu]

Who is it that pops over to Rama all the time? Is it FrugalBigMomma?
I could use some winning tips.

[avoncallingu]

You just enjoy that fruitcake, Lynn-not my favourite goody. Leaves much more for those who like it.

[avoncallingu]

Thanks for the mention of Foster's, Lynn. Is it in Orillia?

[Lynn49]

Thanks for the mention of Foster's, Lynn. Is it in Orillia?

Oops, sorry Avon, got my areas mixed up...no idea about Orillia since we stayed at Rama and ate there.
As for winning, I won my $251 on my 8th bet on a single machine with a Roman soldier on it...lol...I picked it for just that reason and look what he gave me!! Other than that, our SIL and myself won every time on any of those huge end machines with the big dragons on them, that seats two people...they're also fun to play on. Enjoy yuor adventure!!!

[avoncallingu]

I am (for) Spartacus!

[Lynn49]

I am (for) Spartacus!

I dunno, @avoncallingu ....As I recall....didn't he lose against the Romans? And in the final battle, his body was never found...hmmmm....wonder where he disappeared to?

[Lynn49]

'Course, @avoncallingu...if you found a machine with Marcus Aurelius...he'd never let you down!!!

[avoncallingu]

Well, there was some gladiator -type guy but he let me down. But an elvan fairy???? Helped me out and gave me back my money. I spent about $6 in total and a lovely lady used her gold card to pay for my valet parking.

There were 5000 people in that audience. Theresa didn't speak directly to us but there were many messages to be taken from the show.

Exhausted -eating Timmies BLT at midnight -hope I can sleep!

Good night

[flemeth]
