Hey folks - I'm all 'giddy' because I harvested my first Meyer lemon from my tree today! (Won't take me long to harvest the rest since there are only two more ROFL ). Pretty potent little sucker; and, it sure did cleanse my palette if not wiped it off the face of the earth!!

Dawg's stomach grumbling. So held off on food. Checked her bed. Ick collection of stuff. Left one good bone. And refixed the bed. Like Do I really know how to make a dog bed? Guess if I rub her enough she won't know which end is up....prob is I won't either.:102:

Laptop kicked the bucket. Got a replacement - but didn't notice the lack of a memory card slot. (?) Dug out old card reader and struggled for days trying to get puter to locate the drive to upload pics. Problem solved, but it was a very short-lived success. Reader and card were for my old camera...

I've mentioned before that I used to collect toy cannons. Mostly Big Bang Carbide Cannons, but also black powder and firecracker. One of the cannons I purchased was a bronze reproduction of a very early firecracker cannon called the Home Guard Safety Cannon. Today I discovered that only 50 numbered...

Three freaking years and nuthin. Then out pops this. Happy Plum day!!
