[Binger]

Hey jay- wake up and crank up some Springsteen. Hmmm gotta dig out the Dusty and Bruce collections.... nothing better than good music.. cept java of course...

 

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

:cry: I thought of several of all y'all coffee drinkers this morning.
There I was enjoying a cup of coffee - waking up and smelling the coffee - when my husband said, "oh is that a spider dangling there?" So without hesitation, I immediately covered the top of my mug just in case he was about to fall in.

"O'Malley come and get your breakfast!"

cheesy I continued to enjoy my java without worry.

 

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

I was thinking about some old Christmas vinyls today.

:hello: One of my Aunt’s had a special collection that wasn't the same as the ones my parents had. I remember a few that I enjoyed like the Trapp Family Singers ‘The Sound of Christmas’ & Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanianians’ ‘Now Is the Caroling‘ and ‘Caroling, Caroling’. And of course the Andrew’s Sisters ‘Merry Christmas with Bing Crosby’ album.

: Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and picking on Crown is always a good way to make use of one's time.

It's getting cool here, but I don't think we're done with the heat yet.

Hey, Renna - big hugggggggggg!

Cedar - I'm still laughing about the whole "cripsness" thing too. After I told him what I thought he said, he's been using it against me to get my attention.

I plan on watching Miracle on 34th Street tomorrow if O'Malley will let me use the guest bed that is - that way I can watch it on my computer as it seems Tennis and Baseball have taken over the big screen TV. Oh well, 14" is bigger than my first black and white TV was.

Hi Bingster!! Hi Auntie!!

Taking a break from garden work, getting too hot now. Ohhhh the pleasures of coffee...think I'll have an iced coffee. Yeah!

Auntie, you and your husband are a comedy team! "Crispness", what can I say...I'm still chuckling! And now a dangling spider! (eeeek!) So glad you stopped by this week-end...yes, we have to make more fun of our Crownster, haven't done enough of it...Come on Bing, lets get with it! Heehe.

Later friends, ENJOY!

 

[Binger]

hmmm ok--

Hey Crown.. WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE.. THAT SEA AIR IS BAD FOR YA.........

 

[Binger]

hmmm.. what's the difference between Crown and a Sea Gull?

Sea Gulls only sleep on wires.....

baddad bing.. badda binger......

 

[Cedarfarm]

Hey!!!! I see you Bingster!!

 

[Rennabelle]

Not a boring second in this place. Boy does a good cup of coffee sound wonderful right now but as late as it is, I think I would like to sleep tonight. Better not.

 

[Rennabelle]

Cedar, I am going to start winterizing my garden tomorrow finally. I need to gather all my seeds first so that I can have fresh annuals next year. I also need some of my perennials resown next year also so have a few of those to collect also. Going to propagate a few of my shrubs for a few friends that have been whining for starts, I think I can get rooted starts for most.

 

[Cedarfarm]

It's our Rennster!

Good to see you again, Renn my friend. Coffee? Too late..no wait, you are 4 hours later...OK...you are still in garden aren't you? I'm inside for good now, listening to an awesome radio show...the best...the announcer has the smoothest voice, I feel like going to sleep....yawn...oh, alright.

My tomatoes were a total fiasco this year. Didn't help at all that the girls (4 chickens) camp out and sample the young fruit.

Hi Badda Bing...birds on a wire

 

[Cedarfarm]

Good Morning Friends!

Wonder if our tired friend comes back today? I slept in this morning...nice sleeping weather ya know. Oh my...I hear the Jerry Lewis telethon on TV..accordians and banjos, audience clapping - sounds like a beerfest!

71 Days to the Season
113 Days to Christmas Day!

The days are getting shorter, one section of a sugar maple has turned orange..fall is here.

Have a wonderful labor day my Christmas pals!

 

[Binger]

Feels like Fall here also.. GREAT sleepign weather. HI YA CEDAR... sorry I missed ya.. 9 minutes apart... what's shaking?

 

[Binger]

Make that SLEEPING weather ( gotta get edit function here..)- Wonder if Crown is awake..no wait- what am I saying.. hmm coffee- need more coffee.. my motto:

Coffee: You can sleep when you're dead!

Listening to Bryan Ferry right now.... "Avalon"- great end of summer song....
"So the party's over..."

 

[Iron Eagle]

Good morning Everyone !!!

Got in really late last night, or should I say early this morning. I'm going back to bed. Goodnight.

Later !

 

[Cedarfarm]

Hi Bingster!!! Hi Iron! glad you stopped by for a quick hello Iron! Sweet dreams! Come back when you have more time.

 

[Rennabelle]

Hi Cedar, darn I didn't get to work in yard this day. Had to go to Roseburg about 25 miles from here and spent most of the day. Just got home and put away the groceries. Now its in the 90's and way to hot to work outside so am here in front of the fan. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
My maters always used to get ate by my lab dogs so had to put up a fence keeping them out. As a mater of fact they ate the strawberries, apples, green beans, and grapes. Annnnnnnnnd dug up the potatoes, they thought they were balls to play with. So we had to do something. Now there are big holes dug under the fence where they try to get through, had to pound stakes way in the ground and nail 2x6's to them to make it harder. Funny thing now they are trying to dig way out of their area by digging a hole next to the garage, all I can say is good luck. hee hee.
I wont get to work in the garden tomorrow either, well not in the am anyway. I have to go to eye specialists to see when and if I am to get these stupid cataracs removed. Soon I hope, need to see to start decorating for Christmas.

Hi, everyone! We are back from the coast. All is ship-shape there and our cottage survived the rental season undamaged.

Wow, the count has moved 3 days! (Surprise, Surprise)
Thanks, friend Cedar for your assistance!

And speaking of the count (and considering I will likely be very busy at the office tomorrow after the 3-day weekend) I had better post the Tuesday count now:
70 days to the Season
112 days to Christmas Day.

Ah! The most amazing sight on the trip back home this afternoon.
I was driving along highway 70 and came up on a slower moving car pulling a small trailer containing not one but TWO mattresses piled on top of each other. What a restful sight! Felt like leaping out the window as we passed and taking a snooze in the breeze while hitching a ride the rest of the way into Raleigh.
Of course leaving my vehicle driverless wouldn't have done my passengers any good!
Alas! Another sleep opportunity missed!

Have a Marvelous Monday, my fellow Christmas comrades!

CROWNSTER! Glad you are back!!!
