You know, life IS a grand adventure and each chapter brings it's own special journey.

And I promise, Codies Honour, that I will never do this again.

But ANN Please....

you must at least give us a try here. We have everything here you described.

At night we sit and look at the stars. We can see the Big Dipper we can see the North Star or is that a constellation? We overlook the lake and the mountains. Mr. Dev is here to cook your favorite meals. We have our own dock (no boat, but have a dock).

Now the down side to all these beauty.....we have no shops! Poo! All we have here are casinos.

We went the other day and there was a guy next to me with lots of tattoos. He was smoking, yuk, and the smoke was coming my way, yuk again! I leaned over and said, "say Mike could you please blow the smoke the other way?" Mr. Dev said, "how'd you know his name?" I said, "Duh?? It's tattooed on his neck!"

I thought that was mighty considerate of him to do that...so personalized don't you think?

Hugs, Devastated

Ha ha ha ha ha, Dev, they say laughter is the best medicine and if that's true I am cured!!! Oh lordy it hurts to laugh this hard.

I promise you that one day you will look down the road that leads to your mountain paradise and you will fall out of your chair when you realize that it's ME (the bunny slippers will give me away), driving a bus with a Moose and a Southern Belle called Hangin', a Cat in Pajamas and a whole bunch of wonderful Codies all coming to visit at once. You told me Mr. Dev LOVES to cook, and when you tell him it's that foxy lady from Canada, you just know he will let us in.

Keep your eye on the road... :

"Hello, SR Codies, I just wanted to let y'all know I AM back among the living. And I am going to take my advice and take care of myself.

Now don't y'all worry your pretty little heads about me. I'm just fine and don't need a thing. Well...hold on a second there. Seems I remember the doctor did say something about how cheesecake and chocolate tend to really speed up recovery from pneumonia."

But really, I'm fine. These saltines are just so tasty.

Coughs and wheezes,
Ann
P.S. I covered my mouth. And who is the nutcase that put this ice pack on my head?"

Hangin' I told you not to repeat our conversation. How can I cough when I am laughing so hard?

That looks just about like me too, wrapped up warm, mug of tea, but haven't unpacked the coldpack yet

I am heading to the drug store to restock today, and will have to remember to pick up the prescribed chocolate and cheesecake...and maybe a couple quarts of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey might sit well too.

I'm still waiting for a pic of the new place!
(Although I can wait for an outside view until it warms up out, and you're all better!)

How is our Toby adjusting? Well, I hope.

I still love the fact that the last time you moved, Mr. Ann was out of town, and didn't know where he lived when he came back...


I'm ready to fire up the Codie Jet, just give me the say so, and we're out of here. Sure sounds better than the 8 inches of snow forcast for this evening...Grrrr

AND, glad you're feeling better Hangin', Gosh I never knew you could spread pneumonia over the cyber wires!

Did I hear someone say CHOCOLATE?????????

Pictures will come soon, maybe this weekend. I took today off as well, and hung a few pictures and it's starting to look like 'home".

Toby LOVES it here, I bought him 3 more beds and he has one at each of his window or patio doors. He has proclaimed himself KING and has settled in as if he has always lived here. He`s amazing how he adjusts so quickly and I think he likes it that there are no stairs, just one floor of kingdom for his tired bones.

Moose, I think I had the Georgia strain of pneumonia from Hangin, so the cure would, of course, be to fly down to Florida until...oh, let`s say May!!

I am feeling more human today and am heading into work for just a few hours tomorrow. My boss is an angel and just letting me take my sweet time to make sure I don`t get sick again.

Hugs to all of you, you are good for what ails me. :ghug

Oh no!!

You mean to tell me that our favorite southern belle, no, not Scarlett, is sick too?? What in the world is going on here.

I need to make that wonderful Chocolate Cheesecake recipe that I have for ya'll. Wish I was closer!!!

I'm sure happy that Toby (sorry, I mean the King) is settlin' right in. That is one lucky puppy, I mean kitty! My Gino and Kelsey think they have it good, they don't know the half of it.

Anyway, hope you're doing well. Mr. Dev had that dreaded stuff a few years ago. Man, I can't believe how bad he was. One night he said to me, "I can't breath when I lie down" so, me, the loving wfe that I am said, "well, sit up!"
Oh, I should be shot! Finally, one day he said I can't make to work!! WHAT??

Took him to the doc's and doctor said he needed meds immediately as he had pheumonia! Shoot! Are you kidding? Will he be able to cook dinner tonight?? Just kidding.

Ann, just a reminder that Mr. Dev would do anything for his "fuxy" canadian lady! He always reminds me of that fact when I start reminding him about how crazy the mailman is about me. LOL

OK, ya'll take care of yourselves....get well soon
Hugs, Devastated

Dev, just to set the record straight, Hangin' is okay, she had this a while back and of course she's southern and much less complaining than this genteel lady of the North, so you probably didn't know.

Like a good southern gal (who lives in a nice warm climate) she got through it without a hitch, but I know that this is never a cakewalk for anyone. Poor Mr. Dev, I hope he stays well too and tell him the fuxy lady sends a big hug.

Speaking of cakewalks....who has the cheesecake?

Ann

Figure, I'm always a day late and a dollar short!

Are you sure those Southern Belles don't complain more than us? I told you in my next life I'm coming back as one of them, but if they don't complain I don't think I'm going to have much fun....what'll I do? Just sit on the veranda and sip Mint Jullieps and look pretty? Guess I best learn how to spell Jullieps first! LOL

Hugs, Dev
