The Passion of the Thursday #45..

[Corinna]

Thanks as I was sending the post our local radio station did a plea for help for them . Another food bank in the area (for vetrains) is having a fund raiser this weekend and they are going to have a barrel just for them . The biggest thing Lee said she needs is animal feed it was all in the barn. Her big heart she ran out of the house without shoes. Never even asked for any . The paper made mention of it so I'm sure she'll get some soon (if not already) .
This area is very good about this kind of thing in the last 3 months we have had 4 house fires that totalled homes.
The red cross only does so much but all the communities go above and beyond . So the others hold what they can't use and take to the next ones in need.
I love living here it's hard both $$ and weather wise but even if you don't agree with some one , when in need that goes out the door.
We had the same over whelming help during my hubbys cancer troubles and we had only been here 2 months.

Good morning everyone....

Corinna, your post made me so sad - for the animals, for your friends and the children who enjoyed everything.

Is it possible to post a link/or address on how we could help out?

Sometimes so much good comes out of something bad - I hope this will be the case.

Laurie, hope you are having a better day.
Slick, clean those cupboards next week and enjoy your time off.

To drink? Nothing right now, thanks.

Mario, come on over here to Auntie Gini and let me give you a tickle!

I hate to say it but Mario REALLY needs a bath.......

any volunteers????

[trayi52]

I'm afraid slick, it will take quite a few volunteers for that. Unless we give him a couple of beers or that drink that was the DOTD last Thursday. He really mellowed out on that one.

So any suggestions?

While we think this over, I think I just need a cup of coffee and just put a splash of something that will make me mellow out.

Happy Thursday, friends!

Richard, I think I would enjoy trying your DOTD. Sounds very interesting!

Gini, I am so sad for your niece. And Corinna, what horrible news, but how wonderful that your community is coming together for them. I do hope that they will be able to get their program started again. What a blessing for the children and the animals!

Laurie, chin up, girlie! I hope things will start looking up for you soon! Roger Cockati+el is helping me type....thought I'd leave a few of his "marks" in here!!

Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Logan

Gini thanks for the thought , I will try and get an ad
dress for you guys and Ill start a thread just for it. I went to her web site and it is for sale (doman name) so , I dont know if they get mail at the home address or have a post office box. It is way out inthe country.
I didn't mean to bring every one down. I was just so emotinal about it ,I needed to share both the bad and the good.
Still waiting to hear if I'm going out to help yet. The state fire marshal has not yet been there to confirm the cause so we can't do any thing yet.


Mario needs a bath? My nose must be plug I don't smell any thing !

[catland]

Good morning (afternoon, evening?) everyone. Sorry it took me so long to get here - I've been kind of overwhelmed here at work while I assimilate new tasks. But there's always time for Thursdays!.

I thought at first that I was going to have to change offices, which would have been a major disapointment because I have my desk strategically located so that no one can walk by my office and see that I'm on PT. But I'm staying put.

Corrina - I hope everyone is ok - things like that can sure make the rest of our troubles seem minor.

You guys had me going there when you said that Britney was electocuted since the only Britney I know of is Spears.

thought for the day - If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme stuff, why didn't he just buy dinner?



I have some of those little trees that you hang in cars - maybe we can just put some of those on Mario.

[trayi52]

Ummmm, I don't know, think he might just smell like a very rank, smelly tree?

I still say lets give him lots to drink and then give him a bath!

Here Mario, take a couple of beers, hehehe. We do have plans for you young man!!

[RICHARD]

beers for Mario....
towels for everyone else..

Catland,
LOL, I am moving crap out of my offices and anm worried about my monitor placement.....



Wile E. Coyote....
That would take the fun out of chasing the Roadrunner, no?

Corrina,

Prayers for your friends...
I just got word that a friend's father passed away... Hopefully we can get thru all the bad news lately....seems like there is a little cloud around the planet lately...

Logan,

DOTD....DONE!

Peaches are a happy fruit......they remind me of spring warm days and vacation! Can I give Roger some sunflower seeds?

Welcome Hallie...


Rottie,

We start early for the Aussie contingent....Thursday visits them early so we start around 12 noon Pacific Time!

[Corinna]

Thanks Richard sorry to hear of your sorrow today as well prayers to you and all.
Gini thanks for the idea I have posted a thread rescuse farm fire. in General. It has the address for the bank this will be just for the animals. The local Cenex that they use all the time has also set up a jar for them there. The only place being a butt ids medicare, dr wrote new perscibtions for Lee and they don't want to pay for it (How do we know it burned up?) Duh I'll send you the paper and the stories!!!!! Stupid Government.

Oh, MY! Gini, I got such a laugh out of picturing that, my sides hurt! Thanks, I needed that!

So Mario is putting on airs, huh? I thought the tears in my eyes were from the onions Richard is chopping!

Richard, do you have any of the guacamole flavored Doritos? I love those things. I would like some with a cherry limeade, please.

The cats thank you for the cat nip tea and would like a refill too!

You guys are a scream. This past week when we moved back to our renovated building I got a new office, and unfortunately, because of the size, I don't have much of a choice for "monitor placement" so anyone walking by can see what I see! Fortunately I found a way around it; raise up the chair and sit really tall in front of the monitor and use those airplane ears to listen for footsteps

So Mario, I guess it's you and me against the bath water. Come on little guy, let's get you cleaned up.

If I'm not back in an hour you can send out a search party.

[trayi52]

Slick, I'm ready to get wet too, I got the towls so lets give the boy his bath!

So here we go! Get ready for some big time splashing!
