July chit-chat

[nuthatch]

Getting very concerned about Virginia. She hasn't posted since the 9th. Please check in, Virginia!

Pretty trees, Agate.

[stillstANNding]

She posted on the 10th in the Keep on Moving thread but still very worrisome. There was a time when we all made sure someone else here had our contact info, I think. Does someone have Virginia’s?

[Sunshine]

I wonder if she is at her brothers?

[nuthatch]

Just sent her a text. Will let you all know if I hear from her.

[agate]

Maybe a computer problem? I've tried sending PMs by two different methods but no reply so far. She has a birthday coming up on the 16th--might she have got together with family, I wonder?

I have her address, two phone numbers, and an e-mail.

I also have contact information for nuthatch, Catdancer, Howie, Jeanie Z, Rose, stillstANNding, and Cherie. For some of these people the contact information is just an e-mail address. SuzE-Q gave me an e-mail long ago but it seems to be no longer valid.

If anyone wants to share or update information with me, just let me know, or if you feel more comfortable sharing it with someone else here, just ask that person. This kind of connectedness might help in situations when someone drops off the board for no known reason.

[Virginia]

Sorry, everyone. Just not feeling up to par and my normally overly chatty self. I have not received any messages, however. If I had I would have answered those. No not with brothers, they live too far for me to go there.

Weather is very hot, but I have not been out since Sunday. Still it seems that I feel it. The temperature is 98 and I am not sure what the heat index is. I hate to even think of going to empty the trash, though I do need to do that.

Ordered groceries on Thursday, but now have a list of 8 more items that I need. It is never ending.

Hope all of you are well. Just not much to talk about here.

[nuthatch]

Glad you're okay, Virginia. Just sent you a PM to verify the phone number.
Hugs.

[Sunshine]

Thanks for checking in Virginia. It was so unlike you to be absent for days, and that is why I was wondering if all was good with you.

[agate]

Virginia, sorry you haven't been feeling up to par. I sent you a PM via Facebook a day or two ago, and another one at the MS Speaks site. Sorry you didn't get them but sometimes I've found messages from people popping up at me months later and realized I missed them somehow. Maybe that's what happened.

[Howie]

Anyone remember Donna from this forum? I just found out by digging around on the Internet, she passed away about a year ago. I just found out. She was a fun friend, and we shared some fun times together. RIP Donna, I miss you.

[agate]

I have a vague memory of her. Didn't she live not far from you, Howie? I'm so sorry you've lost a friend.

[Howie]

Yes Agate, she lived about an hour away. She always called me out of the blue, and would come down with her DH Donald, and we would go out for dinner. I miss those times. She and I would drink, but Donald didn't, and was always the designated driver.

[agate]

Another person on the board once indicated that she thought you knew her personally at one time. This was at a time when you'd suddenly disappeared and the hens were frantically scratching around, trying to think of ways to contact you, but nobody had any more information about her other than vague recollections of her name.

[Howie]

Good morning all! Today is my brother's birthday. I wished him a happy birthday when I talked to him Friday, but sent him a birthday email this morning.

HOT summer days are here, but I'm in for the day. Tomorrow, I'll run to the store and stock up. Then next week, I have to take my car into the shop to be worked on. I dread that, but I have to do it.

Everyone have a great day!

[agate]

Happy birthday to Howie's brother!

Virginia, a while back you mentioned getting a personal response system. I've been wondering how you like it?
