He really does not like my response to this stuff which is now. "I can deal with you mad at me, I can not deal with you dead. Sorry, that is what my fear is and you just have to deal with it."

I'm sorry you have to have that worry, msbelle, but I totally see why you do.
Happy birthday, Strix!
I tried making a plum pie this afternoon. The best I can say about it is that I know where I went wrong.
Happy Birthday Strix!
So hard, msbelle.
I made a peach cobbler with too much biscuit, but it was still delicious!
Oh msbelle, I can so get that. Sorry mad mac, mom is right!
Happy birthday Strix! You share the day with one of my favoritest people on the planet, a no-longer-little girl who TURNED TWELVE today!
People really need to reconsider their email addresses when they start using them as identifiers in online communities. thunderbooboo@aol might want a different impression in the world.
Happy birthdays!
Mac, listen to your mom.
I had my hair colored by a professional today for the first time in over ten years, and I am in heaven. The back is all nice and even, and my forehead doesn't have any purple splotches on it, and I don't have to clean my bathroom!
(The last time I had my hair done professionally, it was such a disaster that I've never trusted anyone else since. But this place specializes in color and several of the stylists have blue or pink hair themselves, so I thought I would give it a shot. Totally worth it!)
I met a birthday twin today at the pool. "Girl, you just don't stop. But I got 50 laps in, not bad for an old guy, right?" That's awesome. You can't be much older than me, though. (I'd give him a decade on me.) " You're maybe 30, right? I'm 71. 1944, July 9." That's my birthday! 75, though, so thanks.... daaaaamn, you look good. I'm not gonna look that good at 71. My Mom doesn't look that good (sorry, mom) and turns 71 soon.
It disolved into silliness over whether my 'advanced age' meant it would be appropriate to flirt without him being a dirty old man, but me pointing out in 2 decades, I'll look older than him. He disagreed, but was all 'I'll go flirt with your mom.' Just, fun.
I'm glad to get back to my pool, but it's fun to meet new characters.
Oh msbelle, I can so get that. Sorry mad mac, mom is right!
Yep. Right with you msbelle!
Happy birthdays!
Yay for pretty colored hair!
I'm exhausted and heading to bed. Zoe decided that breaking the screen out of the porch and getting herself hit by a car was a good idea. She will be okay. She broke a chip off her shoulder and has a couple good gashes in her chest that will all heal. Vet says she will be ouchy for a while. I'll build a ramp up the steps before I pick her up tomorrow. I was mostly concerned about her staying at the vet's because as a rescue she has severe anxiety about small or enclosed spaces. The vet promised she was going to be so loopy on morphine that she would think she was in doggie heaven. Dogs. Kids. Stressful stuff.
