it was yesterday that a balloon
went up in the air supposedly
holding a child captive
his name is Falcon
it came to be that
the child was safe on solid
ground and i could not help and
think "Falcon, in the sky were
he belongs" of all the boys that
could have been in this situation
it was Falcon that was the
possibility, his name will fit
his legacy

ReplyDeleteWell Obviously Tina in Hawaii has hampered her on jumping into first!
ReplyDeleteCarol this year has had many moments for me but it has been an exhausting year. I am hoping next year will be calmer and less of a roller coaster.
I did find it ironic that childs name was Falcon. How many out there like me suspect that the 12 year old cooked up this plan? You think he untethered the balloon knew he would get in trouble so he had his little brother hide? Hmmm sounds like kid logic to me. Otherwise how does a 6 year old get into the attic of a garage and hide in a box with snacks?
Kids :)

Shirley...Yummy breakfast, but are you sure there is enough bacon??
Happy Birthday Mo!
Morning Scirish! If you take some bacon now before sleepyhead gets up she will never know.
ReplyDeleteI am a dough head. Well a brain like a sieve any way!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY MOWEENIE! Muwaaaah and Hugs! I hope it is fantastic!
Happy Happy Birthday Mo!

BACON!!!!!
Shirley, thank you!
I swear just writing bacon and I can taste it.
ReplyDeleteLynn..
ReplyDeleteI know the childs name so ironic.. A box with snacks? I did not know that, I will tell ya tho, if I were Falcon, I would have chosen the box with snacks as well.. who the heck wants to be in a box with old clothes..
:O)
Lynn..
ReplyDeleteI know again.. I write it and then I taste it.. On Fridays we here at my office order lunch out, so today I am def having bacon.. I can do a turkey club, or bacon egg cheese or just bacon egg, or blt..
Ummm, I believe it said Maureen's Birthday Breakfast, not everyone help yourself! At this rate there won't be any left for the birthday girl. *Sniff*Sniff* Oh well...you snooze you loose!!! Mmmmmmm this bacon is good!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI will come back later and let you all know what my lunch choice was.. Because I know you all really care! LOL
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Hooters!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MO!!!!!!!SWAK
congrats on 1st lynn,
Lynn, I believe that the older child also cooked this up. Just seems that way to me...
Breakfast?? Shirley you are a doll!! Although your avatar is a bit misleading on that fact... just saying...
Carol- this year has been all things good and bad. Mostly good for us, but a couple of hiccups along the way.
Mr. Goldie and I spent last evening having dinner with a friend who was driving thru on her way home from the campground (she went up to close for the season) to Il.
Her hubby is in the hospital with kidney failure, pneumonia and now an infection in his chest tube thingy (where they hook him up to dialysis). This is the 5th time since May he has been in and it really sucks. She wants to give him a Kidney, but he has to be healthy enough to have surgery. I love her to death, so I ask my fellow owls to wish them luck.
Have a good day today everyone! The sun is shining here and its Friday, so yipeee!!!!
Tonite I am going out to dinner with the fam, its Vincents b'day on Monday and my SIL b'day today.. We are doing Italian, I have never been to this restaurant before, so I am looking forward to it, I love trying new restaurants..
ReplyDeleteOk.. I am off and running..
Mo..
I hope your day is as special as you are..
Yes Lynn it was slow and while I was harvesting I would get kicked off or it would freeze and just got tired of it. I like Fish World so I'll stay with that and Paradise Island.
ReplyDeleteGoldie..
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have my thoughts..
Shirley..
When I see food I go in for the kill, so really its each man/girl for himself/herself.. Also Mo got penalty of bacon, she can just slice her arse, fry it up, and enjoy!
Carol I vote for all three!!!!
ReplyDeleteDefinately box with snacks. LOL
Goldie saying a prayer for your friend!
Seriously I am happy this week is almost over too!
Shirley you can not serve food to this crowd and expect us to stay away! You should have learned by now we have no impulse control what so ever! :)
Lynn..
ReplyDeleteI have problems with my apps on FB all the time, I swear that is what takes up so much time.. trying to get on and then once on getting kicked out.. etc etc
Shirley I have noticed that every time they load new things that there are problems. It seems to take a day or two for the kinks to get worked out. Also notice the more someone has on their farms the more problems I seem to have. So I get it.
ReplyDeleteLynn..
ReplyDeleteLMAO.. "no impulse control"
THANKS all for the b-day wishes. They mean a lot to me. {{HUGS}}
ReplyDeleteSHIRLEY...you are such a sweetTART for breakfast and just the right amount of bacon! THANK YOU.
LYNN...I do hope next year will be a year of yellow for you and your family. You deserve a good year...every year.
CAROL...Bacon for lunch and maybe some prosciutto for dinner. Can't have enough bacon!!
GOLDIE... I hope your friend and her husband find relief soon.
SCIRISH...yes, you have had a roller coaster year. I hope next year brings you peace, comfort and the freedom from your physical pain.
BIRDEE...I saw you in Area 51. Thanks!
No gambing yet this am. Iam jsu waking up andbmy friend is gone so she must be downstairs winning.We are going to a fun melodrama tonight and back home sometime saturday. Happy Birthday one more time Maureen Shirley, I was wondering if u r up to planning a Halloween party in Owl Manor? We haven't had a part there forever. I kind of miss those super soakers
ReplyDeleteIn light of yesterdays blog, I saw this today...
ReplyDeletePresident Obama went to New Orleans for the first time as president Thursday to visit a charter school and to hold a town hall meeting. While there, he told the people of the city that he is committed to helping them continue to rebuild, more than four years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the region.
Obama observed that the destruction on the Gulf Coast was caused not just by a natural disaster, but also by the failure of government at every level to prepare for it. "We will not forget about New Orleans, and we are not going to forget about the Gulf Coast," he promised. "Together we will rebuild this region and we will rebuild it stronger than before."
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal attended, as did Sen. Mary Landrieu, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, and Tyren Scott, a 4th-grade boy who asked the president the last question during the question and answer session of the program.
"Why do people hate you? And why, aren't they supposed to love you, if God is love?" Tyren asked the commander-in-chief.
The crowd clapped for Tyren as Obama laughed and patted Tyren on the shoulder. "First of all, I did get elected president, so not everybody hates me; I got a whole lot of votes," Obama joked. "A lot of it is what's called politics, where once one party wins, the other party feels like they've got to poke you a little bit to keep you on your toes. So you shouldn't take it too seriously."
He went on. "But people are worried about their own lives. A lot of people are losing their jobs right now. They're losing their health care or they lost their homes to foreclosure and they're feeling frustrated, and when you're president of the United States, you've got to deal with all of it. You get some of the credit when things are going good, but when things are going bad, you get some of the blame."
"But that's all right," Obama said, adding, "I'm a pretty tough guy. Are you a tough guy? You look pretty tough. So you've just got to keep going on going, even when folks are criticizing you, when you know you're doing it for other people."
DIANNE...I hope you win a lot!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the phone messages. Just not in the talky mood, but I surely do appreciate them. They make my heart warm. {{HUGS}}
Dianne....What a wonderful idea! Last years party was so much fun!
ReplyDeleteMo...Thanks, especially for the pain part. I forgot how miserable the cold actually made me.
gee...i just noticed I got 25. SHIRLEY...mark that down, please.
ReplyDeleteI really am slow today...just noticed the QOTD...thanks JUST LIN
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon everyone!
ReplyDeleteMaking another mad dash. I have been busy with my Kitchen plans. Seems Mr Mary wants no say in any of the plans. Needless to say I have been overwhelmed! I had to find the contractor, pick out the cupboards, counter top,dishwasher,(my 1st ever!), back splash, and design for my new pantry! All this while running the house and visiting SIL in hospital. I have been "farming" to give myself a break now & then. I don't need a bad farm to boot lol!!
Goldie, I will keep your friend's Hubby in my prayers. My Mother was on dialysis for many years. She had 7 of us siblings. We were never approached about a kidney transplant. It wasn't that well advanced in the 60s. But I also feel sad that her lack of insurance had a lot to do with it.
Carol, how fun! Celebrating 2 B-days Italian style!! Have fun!
Diane-not-gambling-yet. Where in the hell are you? Tina in Hawaii? You both slipped out of town! Have fun gals!
MO, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
lYNND Congrats on first! :)
***Attn K Mart Shoppers***
ReplyDeleteI am eating.. bacon egg and cheese w/extra bacon!
Yum..
***end of red light special***
I did it. Everyday I try to post it won't accept my password. I refused to go in and sign up again. Today after only 4 tries it worked. I wonder why.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning everyone. Congrats on first Lynn.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Maureen. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteCarol - This has been one of my best and one of my worst years. I don't like to get on the blog and complain about not being able to walk without pain so I just don't blog. It is now 5 months of feeling like I am trying to walk with 100 pound weights attached to my legs. If I walk for more than 10 minutes the pain is awful. I have had every test, ultrasound and xray my doctor can think of. Nothing has shown up. I am now waiting to see a neurologist. It shouldn't be long. Please know I am thinking of you all and I will be back when I feel better.
ReplyDeleteLove, Tinka
Shirley - I am going to miss you on Farmtown and Farmville. It has been great for me. I just "zone out" with my legs propped up and forget about my troubles. I have never been slowed down on my computer. I guess I have a good server. Off I go to my farms.
ReplyDeleteZona - Thinking of you today. ((((Hugs)))))

ReplyDelete47
ReplyDeleteMark that down Shirley although I will never catch up with you now.
ReplyDeleteTinka, I am so sorry you are still in pain. I have missed you. If you don't post, I worry about you. I don't mind hearing about your condition. I know there will be better days ahead for you. I do my "airing out" here and so far the sweet owls have not kicked me out of the nest lol! So please check in more often Tinka!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY MOWEENIE!!!!
ReplyDeleteLynnD Last night during a live interview, Falcon looked at his dad and said, "You said we did it for the show". WTC? They are investigating the family to try to determine if it was all a hoax.
Shirley How wonderful that you made breakfast to celebrate MO's birthday. I'll have some bacon with a side of bacon, please. Maybe a pancake or two, also.
Tinka Love seeing you here today. I've missed you and your little brown owl. (((HUGS)))
Goldie I sure hope your friend's hubby is able to rally and get healthy enough for surgery.
Mary Have you made all your kitchen decisions yet? I started by deciding on the cabinets style and color, then took samples around to help me pick out countertops, backsplash tile and new flooring. Gathering samples as I went, really helped me see how it would all look with each other.
scirish I hope this will be one of the good days. (((HUGS)))
Dianne You should call Mary. Maybe some of her good gambling mojo will rub off on you.
Carol I not only don't know where the year went, but I've been noticing lately how quickly one week is running into another. it really is true that the older you get, the faster it goes by. Maybe it's time dilation at work. LOL
TINKA...thank you. And I second exactly what MARY said!
ReplyDeleteCAROL...sounds scrumptious!
JUST LIN...thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am off to get my new license. Drats...gotta get a new pic taken! I hope they have a wide angle lens available.
BBL.........
Justlin, yes I have been dragging samples around with me. I have scoured the internet for dishwashers. I think I will get the Bosch. I am going to look at more counter top colors. They are limited in quartz. I don't have a lot of counter space, so I can splurge in this area. As you stated, I have to make sure everything goes together.
ReplyDeleteI have one of those huge double door frigs. My contractor is going to build it into the wall. That will give me a little more room.
K, enough of my boring details lol.
bbl
Have a great day everyone!
Thank you Mary and Maureen - I promise I will check in more often. I find it hard to concentrate on the topic of the day. I will try harder. Love, Tinka

ReplyDeleteJust a quick fly-by; I just landed in Columbus and am about to meet the relatives!
ReplyDeleteCarol: Another of your on-the-mark blogs... loved it!
Hugging Goldie and Tinkatia. Goldie, that is a very frustrating situation for both of them to be in.
And Audrey... I keep hoping you'll have some better news, but please don't keep the bad news from us! We're in this thing called life together!
Dianne if everyone agrees to a Halloween party, I think I could come up with something. But if you want supersoaker don't expect them to have water in them. ijs
ReplyDeleteHey feathered friends...once again, THANK YOU all so much for the birthday wishes, calls, messages, facebook comments and myspace comments and banners. When I can get to the library, I will write back to each of you.
ReplyDeleteI got really sick this evening. Started vomitting, coughing and burning up and then freezing so bad I was shaking. I'm hoping it is just a reaction to something I ate and not a flu...but I feel like SHIT! I know, TMI, but I wanted to explain why I was not here since this afternoon.
Thanks again...Love you all.
Mo: I'm so sorry I'm late wishing you a Happy Birthday..I wanted you to know that I hoped you had a wonderful day...but I'm really sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well. I sure hope that you feel better soon. {{{hugs}}}

Whabby, are you in Columbus Ohio, or is there a Columbus in BC?

ReplyDeleteDianne Somehow I don't think Shirley had alcohol in mind for the super soakers.
MO Well, that's no fun to get sick on your birthday! It's no fun anytime, but especially not on your birthday. Hope you are feeling better now.
