I LOVE forgetting about gift certificates and finding them later! Such a wonderful joy! Sounds like Baldur and Robert had a festive evening, and another one in the waiting! |

I have a good friend who is in her sixties, and she and her husband are both lucky enough to have retired early while they were still healthy. Her motto for gifts is: "If I can't read it or eat it, I don't need it!" I pretty much stick to that motto for gift-giving with EVERYONE now, cuz there is some truth in that for us all! |

I love the bath pillows as well. They just make laying back in the bath and relaxing so much easier. I had one once that was kind of fuzzy on the front. It was nice to lay against but after several baths it started to take on the colour of my bath salts and look dirty. I usually find mine at the dollar store, they are quite as high a quality but they're cheap and they work and that's about all I ask out of them. |

Ohh - the dollar store! Had checked on-line, some selling for $14! Thanks for the tip Dragon. I am on my way ... well after dinner. : ) |

Robin - like "if you can't read it or eat it." Funny! |

Dang it - I posted the following in the wrong place. I'm blaming Baldur because his "answer channel" confused me. (tee hee hee) Okay, okay, I take full responsibility ... just this one time! |

Yes, Baldur, the lack of matthew has indeed been noticed. Hope he's okay, and that business in the pool hall is booming. |

Perhaps you are right, he could be just racking up his balls so often there is no time for creativity. |

did Baldur just say that? |

I also need to crawl into bed to assuage (+6 points) my aching muscles. |

Well of course you meant billiard balls! I'm sure the Baldur estate is benefiting from your outdoor labor. Too bad about the ants. At least they're not the fire ants that seem to be marching north. Good night, Baldur. |

Good morning, |

Baldur, as a retired military person, Sheftali salutes you for the work you have undertaken on behalf of the memorial on the widow's property. I like the idea of the solar lantern. Speaking of memorials and such, Sheftali has had the honor of laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington Cemetery. That was a sobering and memorable time. I congratulate you and all who contribute to the memory of our military at home and abroad. |

I'm sure sheftali speaks for many of us. |

I think too many of us have fallen out of the habit of being neighbourly. I'm including myself in this as I live in a building with 12 units and I would be hard pressed to tell you the name of a single one of my neighbours. Baldur, it's so wonderful to hear you telling your tale of helping a neighbour not for any personal gain and without even having to be asked, just because you're a good neighbour who saw a chance to help out. Kudos to you for being the kind of guy who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty to help someone out! |

Baulder you sound like an awesome neighbor! If you guys ever want to move down south there is a nice lot right beside my house! |

Baldur does sound like an awesome neighbor. My spouse does things like that too - always helping out the neighbors, friends ... he's like the "Radar O'Reilly" ... when people want something they ask him. |

And ... where is our host this evening? It's been a good day and was hoping to cap it off listening to BR. |

Since there is no one to tell us about life in Rhode Island, here's a scene of life in Missouri. It was a tad bittersweet to pick the last of this season's tomatoes today. We saved the green ones for Mazie and hung them in a bag on her fence. Later, perhaps tomorrow, there will be a card on the fence, or perhaps something else. |
