    I never found a search site where to find a person without getting a taste of info, but having to pay for the rest - if I want it.

    So find a free site with all information, I sure could use it..

    I think I'll stay out of that one... LOL! How are you feeling sweets? I've got a flu/cold thing going on here too. I feel lousy!

    On a good note... guess what guys?! I had a girl send me a message lastnite on Facebook. I had advertised in a group I belong to for someone to walk and take Niki to the dog park and run her. It turned out that this girl knew my best friend of 20 plus yrs, and I called my friend and she said I didn't have to worry about Natalee taking Niki. She showed up this morn at 8:30, and took Niki for an hr. along with her dogs. All the dogs took to each other right away, and got along great! Natalee is going to come every morning, execpt for wknds. and take Niki, and she refuses to charge me a dime! I tried to give her money today, and she just wouldn't take it! I'll have to get her a C'mas gift. Niki was soooo happy when she got home. I sure wish I could run her myself, but at least she is going to get out everyday now. Well, weather permitting. The only other thing is, Natalee is preggie. But my friend said knowing Natalee, within a few weeks she will be back at the park with her dogs and the baby. I sure hope so... Niki took to her right away! :D

    Starby, that's great, I'm so glad you found someone to walk Niki.

    How's the backhoe situation. I just read about it. Is everything okay? What's going on? Call me if you're around, I'll be here for another hour or so. :)

    OK where did everyone go?

    Has chery's Island taken all the ranters away?

    I had a few run ins lately on here,just wanted to express my bad self.:(

    Thought it was the da*n pain pills giving me a bad attitude,but the support of my friends straightened me out:)

    Sometimes I just want to wring some posters necks,they have NO idea what it is like to be compassionate.

    Maybe I am being too critical of others and need to express myself with more clarity,then again... who knows.

    Am I off,being too self-centered?Too involved with some of the posts?I don't think so,I am getting restless and irritable,and even a little discontented,, hmmm Oh honey,want to come over for a night??

    Yep! Some of those posters can hang on your last nerve!! You should have seen what one lovely gentleman said to me yesterday! The thread was shut down in a flash!

    Darn, I'm in a mood tonight, aren't I?

    See what happens when hubby works 7 days straight and nights to boot? Alty get's a bit flirty.

    Shhhh, I know, I know, I'm always flirty, but Ken doesn't know that yet. Darn, now he does. Jeesh.

    Another 100 lashes for Alty. Anyone want to do the honors?

    Really, I need some quality time. :(

    Hey... Kenster didn't mention any tree climbing! Where did that get included in the deal? :eek: Is it a 'sturdy' tree? Are there 'pokey' branches? Will I lose an 'eye'? Are there any beavers or uhhmm... termites in the area? Will I start to 'bark'? When it gets late is Ken going to ask me to 'leave'? Is he going to get all 'sappy'? Will he want to talk about our 'roots'?

    So many questions! I don't know about this tree thing! :p

    I still don't have a #5 yet,I'll work on that,just for you.

    Started working on an entertainment center for the 70+ yr old cougar who has been after me for 6-7 years or so,she is a good spirit and needs some pick-me-ups.This should help her with access to the TV and such.

    Weeeee... got them done and delivered,and not even a cougar story either(at least none you'll ever hear about)

    Thank you,but these aren't really my best work,just indoor utility stuff,you know,no scroll work.. etc.Wait till the pics come in from my bro's church project,I am far more proud of that one.

    The corner shelf would(or wood) have been longer on one side,but I ran out of wood.:(

    The wood came from a bank in Alliance, Ohio,shipped to Cincinnati,and then up here... been around..

    Trim was left-overs from a closed down lumber yard(I got all the water stained and left overs for free... hehehe)

    Here's what got me started, my first ever project.

    You see, I wanted a key box, not just one of those little metal things that says KEYS that you hang on the wall, but a pretty box. So, one day I decided to make one.

    I didn't know a scroll saw from a table saw to a mitre saw, nope, didn't know a darn thing. Growing up I wasn't allowed to use tools, my dad was old fashioned that way, heck, I wasn't even allowed to mow the lawn. It's funny, because he still wanted me to have a career. It's not so much that he forbade me from doing it, I really think that he didn't believe I could because I'm female. He'd be shocked (and pleased) at what I do now.

    So, I picked out some wood, decided what I wanted it to look like, measured (not my strong suit) and set to work. Hubby was nervous the first time I used the mitre, he really thought I'd cut off a finger, but I didn't. In the end this is what I came up with.

    Yup, that's my first ever project, my key box. Now I've perfected it, can slap one together in a day, that first one took me over a week, not including the staining and lacquering. ;)

    I love your keyboxes Alty! Ken nice work from you too! Uhmmm... all I could look at after that was the car... is that your car? So very cool! Looove it!

    Not just a car... A '24 model T.

    Try running that one across the states.. it'd take 3 months to get from Massachusetts to California... :rolleyes:

    The car will eventually be put up for raffle(500 tickets) for a fund raiser,annually a local group called Farming Heritage needs to get some revenue for restoration projects and model t T's have been a great way to do it.

    That is Uber Cool Ken! I'm an antique car LOVER! I used to belong to our local car club. My first car was a stock 64 and a half, Mustang! First yr they were made, and were made mid yr. I am so sorry I don't have it now. 4 on the floor stick, 289, it was heaven! Won many races in that car! :D The old ones like yours though, I am just fascinated with! I can't believe you are going to part with it... but hey, that's an admirable thing to do on your part! Makes it even cooler! ;)

    Awww shucks,, thanks starby... Uber coolest... :)

    The most exciting car I was ever in was a pearlescent(sp?) body,candy apple red hardtop(with flecks) '57 Chevy Bel-air.

    Fiberglass front end,remove it and stand right in the wheel wells.

    Had a '69 corvette 350 modified and bored(383),supposedly had 10 1/2:1 compression(although I never saw the comp. test results)New single intake(ran too rich,2 carbs were too much)NO HEAT BRRRRRRR... only the straight headers allowing the heat to come through the floorboards.

    Raced at Union Grove(1/4 mile drag) and got low 13's.

    Ahhh the glory dayz...

    I don't think she has read rules and regs, and really doesn't even understand the purpose of the reddies and greenies. What a sweetie you are. I don't know if I would have given her a greenie, but maybe she will realise how to use the board that way! :)

    What can I say, we're the AMHD police, looking out for unjust reddies, fixing them at the speed of light, or speed of typing.

    She seemed to have a good head on her shoulders... and good advice. Probably, like you said, doesn't know how to use it.

    Funny though... she originally said "no friendship" then changed to "phone friendship." Because that's what happens after hearing responses from the OP!!

    She'll learn... and I hope she stays around. :)
