Concern about missing members

[LadyLocust]

No @Grimm for a couple weeks either.
I'm beginning to think there's a party somewhere I wasn't invited to.

I was wondering about both of them too!?! Yikes!

 

[Weedygarden]

@Tirediron hasn't been on for about a week. Hope he's okay. I know it's a busy time of year for many.

He was on yesterday.

 

[Bacpacker]

Double R has been out a while too. I do see Patch on time to time

 

[Weedygarden]

No longer missing, Hooch! So glad she has been posting!

 

[Morgan101]

Thank you SO MUCH, all of you! And especially @dademoss for reaching out (I feel weird about stuff like that, too).

My son was doing so well with his leukemia treatments, then BAM! He's diagnosed with another form of leukemia and declared (initially) terminal. It was hard to process. Thank God he's now being given a path to life via a bone marrow transplant. While the survival numbers aren't as good as we'd like for his type of treatment (60%), and we know the road will be rough no matter which way things go, we now have hope. We have a lot of hope! He is a fighter. ❤

We don't know the timing of everything yet, and we're still pushing ahead full speed on finishing the farm house so we can put this house on the market (due to the financial fall-out from my husband's accident). We're transitioning him up to Ohio for the procedure and the foreseeable future, post-treatment. I've also been trying to stock up on supplies, as my son and I will be fairly isolated for several months after his transplant (due to his lack of an immune system during that time).

I'll pop in and out more often, as I can - I've missed our beautiful H&CL family!

Special prayers to St Jude for all of you. You know we are here for you. Hoping everything works out for the best.

Most everyone has busy spells in the spring. So much work to do

I'm tired, maybe someday I will move to a condo and die . Just kidding

The cats will eat your body!!

I may be too tired, better call it a night!!

 

[dademoss]

The Chickens are faster, and the remains are closer to the "pit of despair". Cats can be finicky, chickens, not so much,

 

[Amish Heart]

Ha Ha You're nuts. I'm going to bed.
Actually, turkeys are faster at pickin than chickens.
And if you have anything green and flapping hanging off you, the geese will get you first

 

[dademoss]

My apologies for the "Thread drift". Back to missing members

Yes, now that we know NOT to look for dademoss if he goes missing, there won't be anything left of him!!

 

[dademoss]

Only if Amish lets her turkeys out

Rats, did it again!

Best wishes wherever your endeavors take you, @Peanut. It will be a welcome thing whenever you pop back in.

This time of year to me is called "The Tsunami of Spring", around here we have to really be on top of getting grass, weeds and tree trimming all done in a very narrow window of opportunity before the fire season comes on and we can no longer use weed eaters, lawnmowers or chainsaws, thankfully we have a neighbor that helps me that's a lot younger than me, getting older does not make me happy, especially with all the projects I have to get done and even my friend doesn't know all the particulars. DW and I are grateful for these friends, they have fixed meals for us and done other things to lighten our load which is extremely important in helping to get my wife healed after her hip joint replacement. I have a lot of fruit tree saplings I've started in planter pots out on our deck that need to be planted as well, didn't I just tell you that this is what I call the Tsunami of Spring? Anyone want to take a road trip out in the woods of S.W. Oregon to help me plant some trees? Coffee and sandwiches will be on hand, it's not like you don't have enough on your plates as it is. Truth is, my young friend will probably help me get all the trees in the ground, anyway visitors are welcome, if you are coming down I-5, we're about eight miles off the freeway between Roseburg and Medford, I know this is off topic but one of these days I might be one of the missing members, I'll be 80 in October, seem strange to say those numbers but sometimes my body tells me they're true. anyway, all the best to all the other old timers here, "Live long and prosper", I like that saying.

2 things: first no more talk about going feet first out the door! Got that? Okay, you can also leave with your will site names, user name and passwords so that someone can notify and delete accounts.
Second, I was going to try to take Hubby to Christmas Valley (over the mountain from you) for a stead dinner, but they are booked 2+ months in advance & that puts us into canning season.
Okay, 3 things: am glad you are well and just busy.

Hey everyone! Making a general announcement! We all know life changes. Mine has changed radically over the last 3 years… I no longer have the time to devote to the forum I have enjoyed so much or the great people in it. I’ll be stepping way back so no worries, thought about this for a few months.

I’ve been looking for the right time. My desktop computer died last night… seems like the right time. I’ll be off line making repairs and changes for the next 10 days anyway.

I’ll pop in from time to time...

Take care and watch out for our crazy AL weather.

You hang around Peanut!!
