Just thought you'd all like to know. :)” 6:31:49 PM 9/02/07 “Wheeeee! Good luck and have fun! Don't kill the doctor or your husband!” 6:58:52 PM 9/02/07 “ Right on schedule! What'd I tell ya? Two hours 'til Labor Day! last edited: 9/02/07 7:09:57 PM” 7:05:44 PM 9/02/07 “About time! Good luck. last edited: 9/02/07 8:27:03 PM” 8:22:48 PM 9/02/07 “I think I hear a baby crying. It sounds like a.........” 8:53:41 PM 9/02/07 “It's a Beautiful day in the neighborhood ---- ! What's up, Smiley??” 3:40:06 AM 9/03/07 “I am up since 4:30AM! WTF???!!!!” 4:24:36 AM 9/03/07 “OMG! SMILEYS BABY GIRL IS HERE or Smiley Girl is one hard working woman right now. I hope Gordie knows about us so he can post hopw things went. Kinda funny she's laboring on LABOR DAY!” 5:17:02 AM 9/03/07 “I hope everything is going well with the new baby. I'm out of here in a few minutes to go fishing. Have a nice day!” 5:41:34 AM 9/03/07 “Good luck RichB! Hope you limit out.” 6:11:18 AM 9/03/07 “Good morning. A little morning numbness after two unexpected days of canoe shuttling. I'd really like the work a lot better if not for the damn customers:) No real food in the house, so I'm headed for Flapjacks in the little town of Minong (home of Jack Link's beef jerkey) and on to a grocery store. Biscuits and gravy for $2.95 or a small skillet of sausage, scrambled eggs, fried potatoes and onions with gravy for $3.25. Note: I can barely eat the small skillet in one sitting...and they won't save it for me to come back later. I asked. This is good, thruhiker stick to your ribs food. Cal, the owner, has a sign in the window that says, "We serve only good, home cooked food, so it takes a little longer. If you're in a hurry, maybe you should go down the road." He means it, lol. Hope you catch your limit, Rich. The water is up in my brook and I see the trout have returned from wherever they go in a drought. Today's the day, SG. I hear some crying and it sounds like a ......(or it could be MarkO) Peace all” 6:34:34 AM 9/03/07 “Give 'em Heck Smileygirl! I dunno Sass. Sometimes I think it's better for everyone if we're not publicised too much. We're The Crazy Aunt in the Attic of the Backpacking World. THE Jack Link's Beef Jerkey.... ? The nice folks who bring us those wonderful Sasquatch commercials? (it's all Fun 'N' Games 'til they reach into the truck and pull you out through the windshield....)” 8:27:03 AM 9/03/07 “The same Link Brothers who not that long ago were getting beaten up in high school:)” 11:10:35 AM 9/03/07 “And the high school bullies started disappearing about the same time the jerky business started up.... (?)” 11:22:52 AM 9/03/07 “That, of course, and the roadkill.” 11:34:27 AM 9/03/07 “YUM.” 11:48:37 AM 9/03/07 “Good Morning to all!!!....had a wonderful weekend in N Alabama!!!!! ...we cleaned about 80 lbs of shrimp..I will NEVER do it again....ya'll can clean your own!!!! hugs...back to work :(” 2:20:23 AM 9/04/07 “Good morning. Anyone hear a baby crying? Must be getting awfully close, if not now after the fact. I froze some corn on the cob yesterday. Part of me wants to start eating it right now:) Today is the houses turn. It's going to get cleaned. The spiders will not be happy.” 4:50:03 AM 9/04/07 “Good morning, the fishing was poor yesterday and I only caught one small trout and couple of creek chubs. The streams are just too low because it hasn't rained in over a week. Until we get lots of rain the fishing is over. At least the weather was nice all weekend and I got in some hiking. last edited: 9/04/07 5:01:39 AM” 5:00:56 AM 9/04/07 “morning all.......been up since 4:30......walked around town for a while with my coffee then read, now to go to work....had some rain yesterday but not much......” 5:21:35 AM 9/04/07 “Morning everyone... no word from Smiley Mom yet? Laurel starts her regular school this morning, yippee! She didn't seem too enthused when I walked her and 6 bags of required school supplies to her classroom this morning, but I attribute that to her not being a morning person, just like her dad.” 5:38:02 AM 9/04/07 “Morning! This morning was the last weekday sleep-in for a long time. Hello alarm clock! School starts tomorrow. This summer was a blur. Still haven't heard anything about SG's babe. I may call tomorrow if we still don't hear. I have to clean up today. My first client coming to the house since June. My office is a dump. You all have a wonderful day.” 5:38:06 AM 9/04/07 Hugs. “Good morning. I sure wish we would hear something, something good! Treebait - I know what you mean about all those six bags of school supplies. I took my granddaughter to opening day of kindergarden almost two weeks ago. She is attending a Charter School, Robert Stevenson, which they claim is the Number One Grade School in Florida. Everyone have a great week.” 7:44:16 AM 9/04/07 “(as the theme from Jeopardy plays quietly in the background) Morning People Are The Very Devil (like you needed reminding). Short Week! Almost Humpday already ---” 7:49:41 AM 9/04/07 “SG is a little busy resting and caring for the baby, I'm sure.” 8:21:36 AM 9/04/07 “check your e-mail, SS...” 1:40:05 PM 9/04/07 “I lost both my phone and dsl yesterday afternoon. Got in the jeep drive up to Pappy's Bar to use their phone and the tire was flat. That's three and none too bad, so perhaps the small cloud has passed. Kinda cool having a new member of the Gettup thread (Smiley Baby), isn't it? Looks like another day to gather firewood.” 4:45:16 AM 9/05/07 “Yay, studio time for me! OF course then I have to go find lunch sets for both HPM and Laurel. They both to carry lunches now. Laurel also needs a new booster seat for the car. She finally outgrew the 5 point harness seat, but can't reach the buckle when it's in booster seat mode. Dangit.” 5:36:54 AM 9/05/07 Hugs. “Good morning.” 7:17:48 AM 9/05/07 “And again!” 4:28:24 AM 9/06/07 “Back to ya, except for that hug thing. Maybe Tilt, Chappy or Dayhiker when they sign on. My back is aware that I split a lot of wood yesterday. I should be able to walk it off. So far September hasn't cooled off, upper 80's to low 90's. Too hot for this city boy. Peace” 4:38:15 AM 9/06/07 “Good morning, it got hot around here too and we might break a high temperature record today. One thing I'm noticing is that even though the daytime is still getting hot, it seems much cooler in the mornings than it did mid summer. The days are getting short too. Fall isn't far away.” 5:10:54 AM 9/06/07 “Good morning to you my friends, I can feel fall creeping in the air...it has warmed to the upper 80's durning the day but the mornings are cool and crisp! I LOVE IT! Slimmer, I'll give you a hug!!!” 6:56:13 AM 9/06/07 “It's been in the 90s during the afternoon here as well, but it cools off much faster once the sun sets, and the lows at night are in the mid 60s. It feels wonderful. Laurel was so cute this morning. She asked if I could walk her to her classroom this morning, and I said I couldn't; the one time I did that I carried in bags of supplies. I said she'd be fine walking on her own, and she said in her little girl voice, "Yes, but I might be a little bit scared." It was precious.” 7:10:23 AM 9/06/07 “Tree that is so adorable. Are you writing these things down?” 7:23:35 AM 9/06/07 “Well, I write them here....” 7:24:40 AM 9/06/07 “There should be backups somewhere around here --- Sure, Nimble. I'm usually fine with a wave or a nod from most folks. ....though some could really use a big hug....” 7:40:05 AM 9/06/07 “Evening, everyone! Wow, time sure flies when you have a kid in the house. Evie is doing very well, and I'm doing pretty good myself. Had my staples removed today, and I'm getting around pretty well. We're figuring out this parenthood thing slowly but surely. I'll try to check in daily, but no promises!! Glad to see you all here.” 3:50:47 PM 9/06/07 “Glad to see you back roaming your old haunts! < grin >” 3:54:28 PM 9/06/07 “Yeah, we need some PPP's (post partum posts).” 4:38:25 PM 9/06/07 “Hmmmm.... I just saw a t-shirt in a catalog that might interest you: smelled something but I don't think it was coffee 8:17:54 PM 9/06/07 “Morning! Nimblefoot have you knocked out any walls yet? Smiley it's good to see you posting. Is Evie a good baby so far? I think after this many days I was ready to give Abby back, lol. The joys of Colic. You all have a wonderful day.” 4:14:07 AM 9/07/07 “Good morning, more record heat today, but rain is coming and cooler weather too. Smiley girl good to see the baby is doing well. I saw the picture you posted of Evie and she's cute. Not much going on for me this weekend, but I plan on doing some hiking and bike riding. I've been off the bike for a few weeks so I'm looking forward to riding again. last edited: 9/07/07 5:02:19 AM” 5:01:51 AM 9/07/07 “hello, good morning, ride that bike richb and hike your booties off too....... found a mountainbike trail up in arkansas last weekend in Mena on the scenic hwy 88 going up Rich mountain. It's called Earthquake Ridge and they have a big bike race every year there. Looks to be about a 7 mile loop, and from the looks of the trail its a ballbuster...lots of climbs and drops and on the side of the mountain too. I think I'll try it some day just to see if it's my time to die.......” 5:26:20 AM 9/07/07 “Morning all. Wow, one week and Laurel's turning in to a morning person. Just get her off her Dad's wake/ sleep cycle....dang night owls. There's about a dozen other girls who have the same backpack (school type) as Laurel. This bothered me, so I started decorating hers last night. She was showing it off before she was even out of the car this morning, when I dropped her off. I think she likes it. It's got a stylized vine pattern started on it now. I tweaked my back last night, so I'm not having fun right now. Ouch ouch ouch.” 5:35:33 AM 9/07/07 “A little rain last night and this morning, so the cut wood will remain on the edge of the field for another day. I wonder how the bow hunters will feel this weekend when they traipse through my land to their favorite spots only to find me cutting wood? Sass, the walls haven't been demolished. I'm still in the idea stage and will probably remain there until I get some money. Lately I've been drawn to some sort of loft arrangement upstairs, but that would involve removing portions of the upstairs floor and seems well beyond my skill level (that of masterfully tying shoes). Since working outside seems intolerable, I'll while away the day reading a book and now and then cleaning house. Happy Birthday RichB” 6:10:24 AM 9/07/07 “RichB happy birthday..... Nimblefoot, sounds like you're living right...maybe I'll drop in for a cup of coffee......some day.........should I bring my axe?” 6:22:43 AM 9/07/07 Jump to Page << prev
