Safavieh Dhurries Dhurries Flat Woven Rug Light Green Rug
Item #: 101DHU552A-P Add to Wishlist
Description: This distinctive piece is both stylish and incredibly soft to the touch with bold rich colors that complement any room. Flat-woven by hand in India.
- Collection: Dhurries
- Brand: Safavieh
- Material: 100% Wool
- Weave: Flatweave
- Styles: Contemporary Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 3' x 5', 4' x 6', 5' x 8', 6' x 9', 8' x 10', 9' x 12', 10' x 14', 6' Round, 8' Round, 6' Square, 8' Square, 2' 6" x 10' and 2' 6" x 12'
- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
I ordered the "light green" and I was expecting it to be more yellow-green than it is. I still love the color, it is just not exactly what I was expecting. The color is more of a mix of celery green with very light lime green. My living room color scheme is teals/aqua blues with hints of citron yellows and a lot of neutral taupe and beige. The rug blends in well with my overall color scheme and adds a perfect pop of green. This rug is a great quality wool dhurrie. If you are looking for a soft rug, a dhurrie is not for you. I used a non slip rug pad under mine as it sits on tile floors. The rug is beautiful and the geographic print is exactly what I was looking for.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Great rug, looks beautiful in our room. The color was a bit more Carolina blue than I thought from the picture. And it is a little scratchy, but that is to be expected with wool. Overall a great purchase.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I purchased this rug based on reviews for my baby's nursery. When Arrived I discovered it is very thin and extremely rough and itchy. Not suitable for a nursery but it would make a nice outdoor rug.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.It's really beautiful. I bought the blue one, and also ordered the runner. I wish i would have ordered the pad as it is a bit thin, but it is well made. Makes quite a statement. I'm thinking about painting the ceiling blue to match!
Safavieh's award-winning original collections range from the finest antique reproductions to the most fashion forward, contemporary rugs. Safavieh offers a wide variety of transitional area and accent rugs of both Oriental and contemporary designs. Safavieh also produces a variety of rug designs from American Country styles and 19th and early 20th Century European Art.

Under the Mistletoe

Possibly the most successful (and absolutely over the top adorable) Christmas photo shoot yet.
Ruffles & rolls all day long!
I am also positive that these are the exact images that flashed through my mind when we found out we were having a girl.
(Insert heart explosion here.)

Nine Drivers Survive DIRTcar Summer Nationals Hell Tour, But Only One Can be Crowned Champion |
Thursday, 15 July 2010 | |
By UMP DIRTcar Public Relations "You just have to go out and do what you can do," said Erb, of Carpentersville, Ill. "You can't worry about anybody else. If you're behind now, you have to concentrate on winning. If you're leading you can't really worry about the other guy, you have to still run out hard because anything can turn around here at any time." Erb would know, too. Last year he trailed Korte going into the finale at Oakshade in a similar battle to this year's that also included Babb and Feger. He managed a runner-up finish to Tim McCreadie in the race, and that was enough to clinch the championship by a mere eight points. "I don't think there is any science to this at all," said Babb, a two-time Summer Nationals champion from Moweaqua, Ill. "It's kind of been whoever breaks, been kind of up and down for everybody. Everybody has had their good nights and bad nights. Nobody knows how this thing is going to turn out." It's that unknown which can be scary, that can prevent even the most confident of drivers from celebrating too soon. A week ago it looked like Erb was in the driver's seat for a fourth consecutive title, but a flat tire with seven laps to go at Fairbury American Legion Speedway shuffled the deck and put Feger on top. "I was kind of like, 'Finally.' That guy, he's so consistent," Feger said. "You very rarely see him break or have flat tires or problems like that. I think that's the first problem he's had on this whole deal. I've had three or four. Babb's had three or four. Same way with Jeep. Everybody has had about the same number of bad nights except for Dennis it seems like and he finally had one. That's how the luck goes. Anybody who runs this many nights in a row is going to have some bad luck, it's really hard to be Superman." Feger is hoping he can avoid any encounters with kryptonite over the final two nights because he knows Erb will keep the pressure building until the final lap at Oakshade. "You know that guy's not going to quit," he said of Erb. "He's always right there, he's always so consistent. You just have to try to stay ahead of him, that's the bottom line. On the Summer Nationals deal, you just have to go. You just have to try to do as good as you can. If you stress out about every little thing it's not going to work out, especially with the day-after-day grind. We just need to focus on trying to keep this up front, starting with qualifying good, running good in the heat and starting in the front of these things and keeping it in the front. That's what we've been focusing on lately and we've been doing a pretty good job of it. I'd still like to get a couple more wins, too." Says Erb, "You just have to go out there and concentrate on running good and winning and let the points take care of themselves. We just need to get on a roll and have some good finishes so we can be in the hunt for it." For some of the others, winning the championship will be a long shot, but the experience gained is crucial to future success. "This is our third Summer Nationals, and in our first year we were out to lunch," said Unzicker, a native of El Paso, Ill., who earned the first Hell Tour victory of his career on Monday night at Spoon River Speedway. "We didn't know what we were supposed to do. We didn't know what to prepare for. Last year we came in with a better approach and that definitely helped our game. We gained on it again this year. We've only had a couple of parts issues we couldn't deal with. If it wasn't for that, we could be possibly right up in the running for the championship. We would definitely love a top five out of the Summer Nationals." Sullivan also has stepped up his Summer Nationals program this summer, earning two victories heading into this weekend as he battles with Unzicker for a Top Five finish in the overall standings. "I've been in the top five most of this deal," said Sullivan, of Greenbriar, Ark., after winning at Peoria Speedway on Tuesday night. "We've had a few mechanical problems that snookered us, there have been nights where I just couldn't hit my tail. But that's part of the good thing about this tour, there's always a next night. You can really learn some things about your race car that will help you throughout the year." Ultimately, that's the key for many of the drivers who survive the DIRTcar Summer Nationals Hell Tour, to gain enough knowledge in one month of racing day after day that can be used in an effort to win the DIRTcar Late Model year-long national championship. "All these racetracks when you go in there are up for grabs," Babb said. "We've learned a lot. This Summer Nationals deal is good for everybody, especially me. I like racing every night. I've been trying different setups every night. I've learned a few things that will help me next year or if I go back to these same race tracks. I'm happy and satisfied with that no matter how this thing turns out." By Saturday night, Babb and the rest of the DIRTcar Summer Nationals followers will know if Feger was able to hang on, if Erb worked a little magic for a fourth consecutive year or if he, Van Wormer, Unzicker or Sullivan was able to sneak in and steal the top prize. Heading into a weekend of unknowns with the championship on the line, one thing is certain: expect high tension and high drama — the Hell Tour never disappoints. 2010 DIRTcar Summer Nationals 'The Hell Tour' Schedule Date - Track - Location (Winner - Car Count) 06/16/10 - Brownstown Speedway - Brownstown, Ind.

Speaking With ... Scotty McCreery
By MIRIAM DI NUNZIO | email@example.com March 27, 2013 8:22PM
With Sarah Darling
♦ 8 p.m. March 30
♦ Star Plaza Theatre, 8001 Delaware Place (on Interstate 65 at U.S. 30), Merrillville, Ind.
♦ Tickets, $27- $47
♦ (800) 745-3000;
♦ This Weekend Roadtrip Tour 2013 stop is in support of "Clear as Day"
Updated: May 1, 2013 1:54PM
Livin' la vida loca might be the anthem for singer Ricky Martin, but "crazy life" seems the perfect descriptor for the world of singer Scotty McCreery.
Not that he's complaining.
The talented 18-year-old country music sensation, who once worked as a cashier at a local supermarket in Garner, N.C., where he grew up, is simultaneously working on a new album, touring the United States and attending college.
"I have classes Monday through Thursday [at North Carolina State University]," McCreery said, phoning from a recent tour stop in Nashville, Tenn. "Then I'm performing on the road Friday through Saturday. That's pretty much how it plays out. It's all about time management. I literally have to book time for me and the band to have some time off around all the school and concerts. It's pretty crazy."
McCreery's big break came via season 10 of "American Idol" in which the then-17-year-old emerged as the winner. He released his first album, "Clear as Day," shortly thereafter. The album spawned hits including the title track, "I Love You This Big," "The Trouble With Girls" and "You Make That Look Good." His videos earned 10 million hits on YouTube, making him one of the most popular artists on the website.
Most recently, McCreery toured with Brad Paisley, an experience McCreery calls "one of the best things that ever happened" to him.
He was scheduled to bring his tour to the Paramount Theatre in Aurora for a sold-out show March 28, followed by a March 30 gig at the Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, Ind.
Question: How's college life treating you? Are you living on campus?
Scotty McCreery: The first semester hasn't been too bad. It's a lot of work. It's been a pretty normal college experience so far, staying up way too late with my friends, that kinda stuff. I live in an apartment off campus with three of my buddies that I've known since we were 3 years old. They're my biggest haters! [Laughs] They don't want to hear any of that stuff about me being a celebrity. They don't care. That's what I really like about them. They keep me grounded. And the other students for the most part are respectful of me being there to get an education just like them. They might have been a little distant the first few days, but now everybody knows I'm just a real person like them and that I'm pretty normal.
Q. Is college something you've always wanted to pursue?
SM: I think it was very important for me to continue with my studies. It's always just been one of those things I wanted to do and hopefully succeed at. I have grandparents who weren't able to go to college because they never had the money. They told me if I ever got the chance to go, that I should go. So I'm doing it for them, too. I also just wanted the experience of going to college because I think it makes you a more well-rounded person. I'll have to revisit it every year to see if I can keep going full time. So
we'll see.
Q. What does a song have to say to you before you decide to record it?
SM: It's gotta be relatable to me. It's gotta be real. Country music is great because people can relate to it. It's not all that techno crazy stuff. It's about real life. That's what I think is important in a song. We're in the studio now writing new songs for my next album. They're all "real" songs.
Q. What kinds of songs?
SM: Some ballads and some up-tempo. The more ups the better. For this next album we're really focusing on getting radio play, and up-tempo stuff seems to do a little better in that environment. In the last year I've have lots of success whether it was sales or awards shows, but I've never had that radio hit. That's my focus now.
Q. Some would say that radio is over and done with, that the Internet is where hits are made. You don't seem to agree with that.
SM: A radio hit is very important to me. Radio is huge in country music. That's how fans really get to know and hear your music. More mainstream artists get to be on the big-time TV shows and such, but for the rest of us radio is definitely where it's at. YouTube is big, but people have to search you out. On radio you're already out there.
Q. How did "American Idol" change you as a person and an artist?
SM: "Idol"does change a lot of people because they try to mold you into something that works for TV. I didn't let that happen. The show changed my life professionally but it didn't change me. I'm still the same person I was before "Idol."
Q. Do you have any preconcert rituals that you simply must do at every show?
SM: I'm pretty low-key. I don't take any goofy stuff out on the road with me, or anything like that. But I HAVE to listen to the "Rocky" theme song, "Gonna Fly Now," every night before I go out there to get me hyped up for the show.
Q. What do you hope the new album will say about you?
SM: I want my records to grow with me. I got started at 17; my first record went out when I was 17. We really rushed to get it out there right after "Idol." I'm taking a lot more time with the new album to get the songs just right.

"Social CRM allows businesses to track and react to every customer interaction, transaction and conversation", says David Bashford, director at social business specialist Siteforum. Bashford suggests that by encouraging customers to create a profile on your website, you can both collect valuable personal information and at the same time interact on a personal level, assessing real-time responses to content that is uploaded onto your site.
He continues: "Provide a special offer or incentive for your customers building a profile on your site and encourage peer-to-peer interaction by enabling your internal social CRM system to link with Facebook and Twitter, allowing customers to share information. Your main objective should be to entice people into your brand and your website, but there is a lot to be gained from creating advocates of your brand in your own territory and then allowing them to influence their friends. All data is captured through the social CRM modules linked to the portal database, so in this sense the company can search all of this information as usual."

Couristan Anthians 8181 Ivory Rug
Item #: 11081811010-P Add to Wishlist
Description: With soothing combinations of color and shape, the Anthians Collection offers both comfort and an eclectic allure. Hand-crafted in India, Anthians' richly textured cut and loop pile creates a pleasing visual sense of dimension and movement. Smooth ribbons carve their way throughout the design, giving these rich area rug fashions a unique appeal perfect for any casual-contemporary design scheme. Subtly crafted with a combination of wool and viscose, the Anthians Collection adds an indulgent element to any room-setting with its elegant luster and buttery-soft feel. Anthians' fresh and vivacious design adds instant style and offers and infinite array of options to complement today's modern decor.
- Collection: Anthians
- Brand: Couristan
- Material: 100% Wool
- Weave: Hand Tufted
- Styles: Contemporary Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 2' x 3', 2' 6" x 4' 2", 3' 5" x 5' 5", 4' 10" x 7' 10", 7' 9" x 9' 9" and 2' 2" x 7' 9"
- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
This rug looks a little different than pictured. There isn't as much contrast as shown. It's more subtle, but probably needs a lot of light to photograph the subtleties. Mine is brown, so it's dark and slightly less dark swirls. It is also raised on some of these lines, so not the most comfortable to walk on, but it looks great. Very thick rug.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This is a very pretty rug. However, I've had it in ivory for 2 years on a tile floor and I have to replace it. The shiny stripes are rayon and pick up the dust and dirt very easily. I guess I should have vacuumed it every day. I had it professionally cleaned and the shiny stripes did not get clean. Beware of the ivory unless you vacuum daily.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Ordered this rug, which was a nice rug, but this is not the true color. It was more of a dull sage color not the bright lime green shown.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Ok rug. Very dark brown, but I like the color and goes well in my room. The rug itself is very rough on bare feet and seems more durable than luxurious. The ribbons, however, are delectably soft. Overall a nice rug.
For seventy-five years Couristan rugs has been the trusted name in the floor covering industry offering a vast assortment of exclusively designed power-loomed and handmade area rugs. The business began in 1926, with the import of handmade area rugs from Persia and is still owned and run by the Couri family.

Just getting us started
Good morning ladies.
The frost is on the pumpkins this morning. It's a crisp 24 degrees, but at least the wind isn't howling. We still have limbs to clean up after Friday's wind.
Great job on your marathon, Molasses. Sorry to hear your hubby's knee gave out on him. I hope it isn't anything serious.
Glad that you had a good trip, Angii.
Not really anything going on around here. I have a RFL meeting and DH has an ambulance association meeting tonight. I need to clean today, we are getting overrun by dog hair. Beyond that, no clue what the day will hold.
You all have a wonderful day.
I'm into paper work today plus the search is still on for my MP3 player . At least I know where the one is. Also for my 2 flash drives. They have all my pictures on them so I really want to find them. I must have put them somewhere but where I don't know.
Dh has dentist at 7 30
That's about all today .
Voice is on tonite and I think Dancing with the stars so I will be watching and taping those. Cher is on DWTS as a Judge and Performer. She is from my generation so will enjoy watching . What she knows about dancing I don't know . I can't believe that I still haven't gotten around to watching the Good Witch.
Good morning, all,
Chilly morning here, too; definitely feeling autumnal! The leaves were beautiful yesterday, but are starting to fall. I have quite a few things I'd like to get done today, and then Pilates tonight. DH is still home; we'll see if he is feeling up to going to his office later.
Have a great day!
Morning ladies. It is raining here! So fall is in the air LOL. We had a great weekend! But today is back to the grind! I have to go to the grocery stores today, and all that, so I have the CG coming over.
Other than that, I am not sure what I will get into. I need to clean up the neighbors leaves that have fallen into my yard near the camper, but I may wait for them all to fall and hopefully a drier day.
Mo, congrats on your race! Sorry about DH falling behind. I hope his knee feels better today.
Di, sorry about the cold temps!
Bama, I hope you find your MP3 and your flash drives.
Sue, sounds like you had a hard weekend with DH. I hope things get better. I hate it when I do something and he doesn't even notice. Or he tells me how he would have done it. Although, last night mine was real sweet and let me take a short nap while he cooked dinner for everyone.
Yah, glad you didn't get called in on Sunday. I hope you also don't have to work today.
Barb, I hope that things start to look up for you. I loved the doghouse! Your DH did a great job.
Well I am off to work on my menu and lists!
Morning ladies,
OMG Angii, my mouth is watering hearing about the crab pot you went to. Yikes on the new motor. Can't wait to see more pics.
Thanks for the start this a.m. Bama.
Brrr Dianna. Hope the RFL meeting goes well and so does the cleaning today. Yes us too on the dog hair. Since I am going out tomorrow, I will vacuum the kitchen/dining area today as I would NOT count on the 'other one' to do it...as I am sure I'd hear "oh I forgot". So if you want it done right....do it myself!
Bama, have fun with the paperwork and I so hope you can find that MP3 player. Oh no and flash drives too...wow I sure hope you can find them. Wish I was there to help. I am very good at detecting and hunting.
Oh Bama, I love Cher too and she is actually a pretty good dancer...now if I could only remember the movie it was in I saw her do it...GRRRR old age!
Oh I loved Autumn back east growing up. Hope you get all you want done today and enjoy Pilates tonight. Healing vibes to your poor hubby.
I see your day is a busy one today Angii, good luck. Yeah not a good weekend and we did well most of Sunday till Sunday night right before bed time...he really is getting on my nerves. So much so I just want to go someplace where I don't have to deal with him for a very long time. Unfortunately not an option so I will persevere...and try to keep my BP down.
Ah Cody I a sweetie pie.
Oh where's the doghouse...oh I bet on FB...oh well.
Well off to mail, breakfast, workout and another day...have my mammogram tomorrow...wish me luck.
Good day all and thanks for opening Bama! I can think of Jade saying this on days
Well, kind of thought of snow out there this morning but no snow yet. If fact it says 45 degree's and south wind for now. Was very windy in the night I know. But snow is on the way I guess. Tomorrow I will have to get up early Thought this one lady was going to take today off so she'd have 2 days in a row after the weekend, but she didn't We do have the lady training for the FT spot all week also. Not sure how she will be as she's very tiny but older also. Just hoping I don't have to train as I don't like that job and figure the FT's can earn their pay.
Di, sounds as cold as it probably was this early morning here! Have a good day cleaning and all Bama, hope you find all your looking for! You probably put it somewhere you thought you would remember, like I do
Mo, hope you have a good day and your Dh's knee is better to.
Angii, sounds like a nice trip and not so nice on the engine though. Enjoy your day with your CG there. I should have gone shopping all weekend but this place seems to hold me here somehow
Sue, I agree with your Dh on the overdoing it though Just do what you can and enjoy your day too. Guess I have some paperwork to do also. Looks like all the leaves are off the tree's here now, just waiting for the white stuff.
Barb, I can put pic on if you can't? Hope you have a nice day to!
Well, off to do whatever. I see my crewleader's DD had her baby finally so not sure if she will be off or if she had the weekend off. I know one hk was off for her mom who died there.
Had a phone call I didn't recognize on my cell phone and thought it might be work but it was Omaha Steaks for Xmas gifts I told them, nope, as I can't remember when I last ordered something there They at least were nice and didn't try Hard to sell.
Well, enjoy the day and BBL, Yah
My DD sent me a link to a free 6 week holiday challenge. It was developed by NC State University and the NC Division of Public Heath. She said she has done it in the past with success. I signed up. Anyone else interested?
There is a much more involved 15 week program but there is a fee, if you don't work for the state of NC. DD said that she has also done that program and may do it again after the holidays.
Yah, I have quit looking for it/them . My DH told me to go and buy a cheapie so maybe I will . But of course when I do I will find it . And I love the picture of the Kitty. I like cats .
Di, I signed up for the Holiday challenge. So I will join you in it. I am already doing a walk one with Leslie so they will probably work out together .
Here's to the Holdiays 2013 Challenge No more POUNDS!!!
Afternoon ladies,
Cold & rainy day here so I'm goofing off and doing laundry. I should get the vacuum out and catch some of the dog hair that's piling up. Not looking like they'll get a walk today. Just got a couple of missing magazines in the mail so I think I'll just relax and read them. Of course I didn't think they remembered when they said they would send them, and bought the latest issue yesterday. Oh well, at least the address is finally correct.
I hear ya, Sue - there are days I just want to escape by myself for a week or two! Oh, here's a pic of the dog house. It still needs shingles, trim and the little deck and roof, but Jazmine used it this morning. Murphy still sat by the gate in the rain. I'll post a new pic when it's finished - hopefully before it snows.
Hmmm, I couldn't get the pic to post by itself. Trying again... Nope, I see the image in the preview box but it won't post. I give up.
Hi ladies,
Smiling again and me and hubby are better again too...I am just worried...as you all know I am just always a nervous wreck when I have to go for the mammogram. Sorry for whining.
Oh YAH we love the pic of the cat and the saying. And our guys said the same thing in winter on L.I. back when we lived there. They were all indoor cats so didn't know any different.
I don't blame you YAH, they ain't paying you for training...maybe they should as you know all the jobs better than most of them do. I'd make the suggestion, well that is, if you want it LOL I figured you would agree with Chuck LOL
Yes YAH please please put the pic of the dog house up.....I am on bended knee LOL
I got all my paperwork done....3 months worth of budget stuff and 1 month of business...which was nothing anyway.
Oh Bama, so sorry you couldn't find the MP3. Good luck with the challenge.
Dianna you also, good luck with the challenge.
Barb, a nice cozy day reading is a nice thing. I am so with you on just being in a place all by my lonesome sometimes and this is one of those times, but ain't gonna happen. Sorry the pic of the dog house didn't come in. Maybe YAH can get it up. Are you using IE?
If you have it on line someplace, you can do a cut and paste and it should come in.
Well I am off to the 3 C's. Have a good evening all,
Hope you don't mind Barb, but this is the pic right? you can do another one when its all finished But it looks nice and goes with the house right? From here it looks very skinny but I'm sure thats because it goes down in the back Big enough for your Dh hey? jk It still says south wind out here but pretty gusty and on forecast it looks like Wed., more chance of snow. I'm sure it will be colder tomorrow though.
Dh saw my front tire was flat today so he put air in for now. So I guess it was good I didn't go anywhere all weekend but I don't like worrying about it so got to get some new tires myself I guess. I should have done this sooner as their Very busy now for winter of course. Nov. 13th is the earliest so far. Just lucky I'm working is all I can say and should get 4 of them, but I guess will get the front wheel drive ones, and next yr. if van is still going, put them in back and get new all season tires again for the front
That will be $240 for the one's we need with putting on and all so not real bad. Not getting the most expensive for sure!
Got a hold of older son finally. I didn't pester him all weekend and finally called later this afternoon and said no acceptance on his cell phone! I got worried but then I messaged him on fB and he called and he had a dentist appt. so I guess it didn't go through there and he had it on mute. I heard Late last night on scanner the last 2 letters of his address on his street and wondered if anything happened but he said he heard that to and police even put spotlight on his address on house but it was down the street from him, a 2 and not a 3 for the first number! I know, I worry about him alone there now as he gets, but he hasn't had lately much of any episode at least. Told him to make sure lots of water to. Guess he had a new cap put on back molar so was numbed up now. I will see him tomorrow anyway and the middle one to. Just hope my tire holds up now. Maybe I'll get son to put some stuff In it for the time being
Sue, did you get a mammo today? Or soon? Well, that explains it of course! I just hate training as they go all over with you and I like doing it all myself I get mixed up especially with the personal rack if someone else is taking stuff off of it. I can start at beginning, end or in the middle myself which they all don't do ever, but put someone else taking stuff off and I don't like it I do try to tell them more little tips when I'm alone with them cause I know the FT people kind of don't say much unless you ask and no one seems to ask questions like I did when I started. Enjoy your evening to!
Bama, hoping you found the pic at least which I was more worried about
Well, better go and get more garbage or throw some stuff away as I will be gone tomorrow. Have some good sleep's ladies! Yah
Thanks for the photo, YAH! Sue, I generally use Firefox. IE doesn't work right with my wireless printer for some reason.
A hinge just broke on my laptop screen. Guess it goes into the shop soon. Hope they can fix it!
Evening ladies. I got Charger to the park, and my grocery shopping all done, plus I got Dad's pacemaker device stuff set up for at home checks so he doesn't need to go into the Dr's as often. Plus if there is a weird issue, they will call and get us an appt.
Tomorrow I may do some office stuff... I really need too,,,, I haven't updated my check book for almost a month.
Tonight we will have stuffed mushrooms and veggies. While football is on!
So I better get off here and get food done!
Good morning ladies,
I've been awake since 4 again. I hope my body clock and the real clock soon get together. I am tired but I still keep waking up early.
I deleted my last post. I was telling you how upset I was with myself for backing into the fence and scratching my car last night. DH came home and was really wonderful about it so that calmed me down A LOT. He said he knows I have problems seeing to drive in the dark, my driving knee is stiff, I've been overly tired and I hit a brown fence in the dark. Also that it was an accident and I need to not be so hard on myself about it. He also said that it will need to be fixed but it won't cost as much as I prepared myself to have to pay. So I made myself sick to my stomach worrying about it for a couple of hours when I didn't need to be so upset. Am I happy I scratched my car up, no. Am I glad my hubby handled it so well, you bet. Will I drive in the dark again, not sure. I just don't feel comfortable driving anymore and especially in the dark.
Not sure what today holds. General housework is kind of caught up again. Too cold and damp to work outside today. I could sort out my closet and dresser and pack up my summer stuff. Maybe I'll work on that.
Great looking dog house, Barb. I need to get after my DH again about making some sort of shelter for the cat before it gets much colder and snow arrives.
Sending good vibs for your mammogram, Sue. I have my mammo and MRI on the 21st. I know all about your antsy feelings. That what if just never goes completely away.
Hope you tire holds up until you can get it replaced, YAH. That would worry the heck out of me with the hours you are out and about and the distance you need to travel. Fingers crossed no flat tires in the middle of no where in the wee hours. Glad your son called you back and everything is okay. We never stop worrying about our kids no matter how old they are. Sorry about the training issue too.
It will be interesting to see what the Holiday Challenge has to offer, Alabama. DD said there were some good tips and recipes before. I haven't set up the tracker and yet but I did print off the log pages and food diary this morning.
How's your DH's knee doing, Molasses. Hope nothing is torn in it and some rest and ice fix him up.
Yep Sue and Barb, when you are with your hubby 24/7 sometimes you just need a little break from them. Glad things are on the mend with you and Chuck, Sue.
Glad you had a good weekend, Angii. Nice to hear the caregiver is working out so well for you. Sounds like it makes life a lot less stressful. You can get out and take care of things and not worry as much about what is happening at home.
Guess that about does it for me. Have a great day everyone.
Good Morning Ladies,
Work out is finished and I too is still behind in my Paper work I have two months of Balancing the check book . I hate it when I allow that to happen . No one to blame but my self.
Barb very nice Dog House . I had to laugh at what Yah said about it being for DH also . LOL I think I shall get into my books later today and pick out a couple to read. I have two of those reusable grocery bags full so I need to get started.
I finally watched The Good Witch last night . It was good. I think that Cedar Cove are two of my favorite shows . I did watch DWTS last night . Cher does look good but who couldn't with Money . And still sings pretty darn good for being in her 60's , A pretty good show .
I did order myself a cheap MP3 player from Walmart yesterday and with it I got my choice of 2 dumbbells all the way of to 10#. I ordered 8 # . A really good deal as dumbbells are usually a buck a pound.
Yah, sorry about the low tire. We had to buy tires while in Ohio on the car that we keep there. Oh Did I mention that we are shopping for a small car for me . I am thinking of a Focus . I went to Indiana in one and liked and the gas mileage. It will be an Ohio car tho . Dh doesn't want me to drive to Ohio from here and I agree with him so we already have someone who wants to buy my Caddy.
Di, actually Driving makes me nervous also . And I and I know you did also drive everyday to work which was a distance . Also drove to Florida many times to visit Mom. but anymore it just really makes me nervous. I just don't drive enough .
Sue good luck on your monogram . I don't enjoy them either but it the idea of having to go that I don't enjoy .
Mo, how you doing today after that long run and how is DH's knee doing . Hope all better.
Sorry if I missed anyone.
Morning ladies. No caregiver today so I am not sure what the day will hold. I may try to get some cleaning done. I have the kitchen and our living room that still needs the deep fall cleaning done. I just hate to do it while the cg is here, and I can be doing other things. So we will see how motivated I get this late morning and afternoon since it is Shower day for Dad and that is a LOT of work too.
Di, I did see your post last night, and I was hoping that your DH would be ok about it. And I also figured with it just being a scratch(es) and not a major dent/wreck that it shouldn't be too expensive to fix. I am sorry you worried yourself sick though. But I have done the same thing.
Sue, sending good mammogram thoughts your way! I hope the ride goes well. I am glad you and Chuck got back on good ground.
Yah, I hope the tire gets fixed soon.
Bama, the ford focus is a good car. You can drive those puppies until the wheels fall off if you maintain them. And that is saying something coming from a brand loyal chevy girl!
Barb, Mo, Birdie, and anyone else that I may have missed.... Happy Tuesday!
Good morning, everyone,
Hugs on the scratched car, Dianna, and hugs to your DH for being good about it. I know how you feel because I did worse to my new car! I not only scratched the paint, I dented the panel. Thanks for the challenge link. I tried to sign up yesterday but got an error message so I'll try again today.
Nice dog house, Barb, and nice fence! For some reason I was thinking your house was green, but obviously not! I do like the purple. I painted my front doors purple a few years ago; I like them. Hope your laptop is an inexpensive fix.
Sorry about your tires, YAH, but glad you'll have new ones soon to drive safely on the winter roads. Glad, too, that your DS was okay. I guess we worry about them forever and then they get married and have kids of their own, and we have more loved ones to worry about!
Thinking of you today, Sue, and hoping your ride and appt. goes well and you don't have to wait long to hear your good news.
Good luck with shower day, Angii, and with finishing up your fall cleaning, if that's what you decide to do. My uncle has the same sort of thing with his pacemaker--some little device by the phone that he stands near to get it checked. Amazing the technology they have these days!
Bama, I think there are a lot of celebrities who look great for their age, Cher being one of them. I do wish they'd be honest about what they've had done though so the rest of us don't feel so bad in comparison! It kills me to hear younger women like Kelly Ripa talking about their Botox. I think the Focus is a nice little car. DS is looking for a small American car to replace his tree-totaled Volvo, but I think he's leaning toward the Chevy because he wants a manual transmission and the Chevy has something the Ford doesn't. (I'm not an engine girl tho, so I don't remember what it is!)
I have sore calves still today, and DH is still limping, but he's feeling better already. I think he just needs to lay off running for a few weeks, but if it's still painful in a few days, he'll go get it checked out.
I need to get my grocery list made for tomorrow and also make up November list of To Do items, like calling the chimney guy to clean the furnace chimney. It's been a few years since we've had that done.
Have a great day, everyone!
Molasses, I got an error message too but it went through anyway. I got my welcome email shortly afterward.
Mo, Same here I got a welcome email just a short time after. I am for anything that will keep me on the Ball or on a schedule .
Di that was very nice of your DH not to get to upset over the car. As my DH always tells me in different situations that it's only a " thing" and can be replaced. .
Angii, thanks for the go ahead on the car. I haven't had a Ford in years many years in the fact the last one I had was a '59 Ford retractable . Sure wish I had it now . Major bucks , I am sure.
Wow Barb, a Purple house sounds very lovely as purple is one of my very favorite colors.
Sue anxious to hear how you come out today . I need to get one also . I got my letter already.
I watch a black bird with a broken wing try to get up and over the neighbors fence yesterday. Finally I closed the blinds as I couldn't stand to see it fail. This morning it is gone so I assume it got out some how. I have a very tender heart.
Well the sun is shinning and we saw that we need to do some trimming on the shrubs and we trimmed them before we left but grew to much and need to done again so it's outside for us for a while.
Oh Dr Phil is going to have one of the ladies that was held captive in Cleveland all those years today and tomorrow . Don't know if I will watch or not . Don't know if I want to hear about it. Such a terrible thing to happen.
Thanks, Di and Bama, I did manage to sign up today. I also got out to do my civic duty, so I'm feeling good about that!
Bama, I hope the bird was okay. Years ago, there was a crow with a broken wing in the yard. The kids put it in an empty stall in the stable and fed it for a couple of weeks. It covered the whole stable in poop, and eventually healed enough to fly off.
Time to make dinner~
It must have made it over the fence some how as I went out to look this morning and couldn't see it any where . It was so sad to watch . One of Gods creatures for sure .
I am back, the ride went great, met some nice ladies and we chit chatted. Same on the bus too. The rides went great. Mammogram was quick and I did my form so I get results too....now the waiting game....I am not good with waiting. Plus I got a lovely present in today from a wonderful lady too and something I wanted and needed...so I am smiling and of course wrote to her already and thanked her very very much as it was a very nice surprise, especially after today's not so fun visit.
It's late and I am off to the 3 C's...I hate a lot of mail to clear out and answer.
Have a wonderful evening, more later this week on the trip.....busy cooking day and other stuf tomorrow,
Afternoon ladies. I haven't done much of anything. My motivation just sort of ran away with the rain. I did get Charger to the park, but that has been about it.
Tomorrow I will go get weighed and measured and I have to take something back to the VA for Dad. I was sent 2 cell adaptor's for Dad's pacemaker monitor, and I got a call from them today asking if I could bring the extra one back. Somebody screwed up.
Well I should probably go and see if I can get something done.
Evening ladies,
Nothing good around here. I woke up rather depressed, even though it was a beautiful sunrise. Got up early, but then took a short nap. Finally went in to update the checkbook and pay bills (no wonder I was depressed!), and my computer wouldn't even fire up. Took it in and the fix would be as much as a new laptop. It's a flaw in the Dell design, evidently. The hinge is attached to the motherboard. The hinge breaks, the motherboard breaks. I've always had good luck with Dell, but this one was a refurb we got from a friend. It sure didn't last anywhere as long as the first laptop.
Because I want to try and get Windows 7, I'm waiting for a call back from the local tech store. They are getting scarce. Fortunately, the computer shop can recover everything from the hard drive (for $60), so I transferred a bunch of files from one of my portable external drives and DH dropped it off. I should get it back in a few days.
In the meantime, I had to download Quicken onto DH's laptop (so glad we bought a new one for him earlier this year or I would be out of luck). Anyway, I did get the bills paid and the checkbooks updated, but I have more input to do for year-end. It'll take a while since I'm not used to DH's keyboard.
So that's my day - blah! Oh, Sue, I did email Google and they sent me another link to the NIK collection within a couple of hours today. The upgrade was messed up on DH's computer too, but I'm good to go now.
Being bad - DQ burgers for dinner. Here's to a better tomorrow!
Oh Barb, what a day you had. I sure hope things go better today. Computers, they can drive you nuts but in today's world it's hard to live without them. My first computer was a Dell and I liked it but I was warned not to replace it with a Dell when it died. Apparently, at least at that time, Dell was known for not having replaceable parts and a lot of things resulted in problems with the motherboard. That was years ago and I would think Dell would have changed those problems by now. Hope you can find a new computer with Windows 7 soon.
I slept like a log last night. I kept nodding off as early as 7 and I think I was out cold shortly after 8. I told DH yesterday morning I thought I was about ready to crash from lack of sleep. I had terrible brain fog this past week. Hope the extra sleep took care of it and my body adjusts to the time change so I sleep better. Molly has slept in the past two mornings so if that continues that should help.
Hope you get your mammogram results soon and they are good, Sue. Glad you had a good ride and a nice surprise waiting for you when you got home.
Sorry to hear about the bird, Bama. I'd have had a hard time watching too. I'd want to go help it but not know how.
Do you have wood heat or just get your chimney cleaned every so often, Molasses? We cleaned ours when we used wood for heat but not since we have oil again. Are you supposed to clean it for other than wood?
Can you post a link to your new MP3 player, Alabama? Mine died a long time ago and I haven't replaced it. I have to order a Pokémon throw from Walmart for GS for Christmas so maybe I'll treat myself to an new MP3 player.
Hi Angii and Yah.
It's errand day so I'd better make my shopping list. I told DH l don't know what we've been eating because we don't need much again. It seems everything I make lately turns into 2 or more meals and DH likes leftovers. So we eat something twice and freeze the rest for another time. I pulled a frozen meal out for my hubby the other night and just warmed up some leftover soup for me. I plan on getting the stuff to make a big roaster pan of veggie soup this week. Again we will eat some and I'll freeze some. Making beef stew for supper tonight. I was going to make it yesterday but I didn't have everything that I needed. I usually use one pack of onion soup mix for extra flavor and I am out. I wish they made it low sodium.
Guess I should get moving. I still need to hit the shower.
Have great day.
Good Morning and Happy Wednesday .
Barb, sorry about your laptop and hope you find a Windows 7. Microsoft has come out with a Windows 8.1 but I haven't downloaded it as of yet. Windows 8 is supposed to be really nice if you know what you are doing. I guess it's a matter of just learning it. Has a lot of nice features. BUT I still don't like it . Too much change at one time . We ended up downloading AOL so are using that for every thing so no trouble so far. We have always used them for our mail and are use to that system.
Not a lot planned today . Got a call from my DD and they are redoing GD bedroom in Zebra and Pink so That worked out quite well for me as last year I had bought 3 yards of zebra fleece for a blanket for our friends DD and when I got back to Bama with it her Step Dad Had already bought her one ready made soooo I thought I would be stuck with it . Now all I nee to do is add the Fringe on it and presto It will be used and not just laying around.
I need a hair cut so that is planned today.
Not much else some yard work and I started a book yesterday so may try and finished that.
This is so cute watch it when you have time .
Morning ladies. Bama,, the second dog in the video could be my Charger if the cats would get that close to him. I had to rewind it the first time I watched it because I swore it was Charger, but that puppy has 2 brown eyes.
Not sure what all today will hold. DH had to go to Tacoma for a 9 am meeting so he had to be in to work shortly after 6. So we got up early.
The CG will be here today so I will go and get my measurements done, as well as take the thing back to the VA, and also pass out some fliers for a free shake. And of course, take Monster to the park.
I may throw a nap in there somewhere too. LOL. But I should probably put clothes away and clear off the hope chest in our room so I can use the fireplace if we need to.
Sue, I hope you get the results soon and they are good! I am glad the trip went well.
Barb, sorry about the funk you are in. Is it the weather? I hope that things settle in for you soon so you can enjoy your cute house and retirement too! I am sure you are counting down the months till summer so you can do what you really want to!
Yah, I hope things are going well for you.
Mo, I hope your DH is feeling better today and didn't do any harm to his knees. I am sorry your calf's are still hurting. I also hope that they are better today.
Di, I am glad you got some sleep. I hope it helps. We made stew last night... it was nummy.!
Well I am off.
Yep Angii, I thought of Charger also when I saw that. My DD's Huskie(one of 12, but they are no longer with us) use to talk like that . I watched Tuffy over night one time and she had taught him to ring a bell that was attached to the door knob if he wanted to go out . Well he had my number for sure . He rang that bell all night . Huskies are really nice dogs .
Got my hair cut now I just need to color . Got some Business taken care of . Plumber coming tomorrow to fix Shower faucet and only one thing left to be fixed and we are good to go for Spring. Been a busy and productive day. Now I need to get another walk in after lunch.
Check this out:
Love the videos--the husky was having such fun in those leaves! We could contribute to the cat/dog bed segment. Our 105# Rio will go lie in the hallway when Mr Kitty has taken over his bed.
Hugs, Barb; I sure hope things are better today.
Glad you finally got some sleep, Dianna!
Nice your GD can use the fleece blanket, Bama! Hope your haircut is pleasing you.
Sounds like a good day for you, Angii!
Hope you are having nice days, Sue and YAH.
DD came this morning so I could do my running around. It looks like rain in the forecast for the next few days so I wanted to get my sheets on the line this morning, and DH wanted a haircut, and DA got up early, and I then I had to get the in the shower. ...so I've not gotten a workout in yet. I think I'll go get on the stationary bike for half an hour anyway.
I think this is the link to Bama's bargain:
Good day! Pretty much what it looked like this morning around here. It was wet heavy snow and stuck to eerything and we still have at least 4-5 inches on ground now. I wish this was all we get all winter Barb, did you get any from this storm? I didn't get called to work anyway so it was nice not to have to go out in it though.
Di, I hate backing up also and use my mirrors a lot for it as my neck hurts But dark is a hard time to do it anyway. When I backed into my son's New car by accident, my van was ok but that new stuff sure wrinkles up fast! Although my van is a lot of plastic or whatever that is! Your Dh needs to build the cat house soon Good luck on your errand day to.
Bama, nice to be able to use the fleece blanket then! I've see birds with some problem and just try to put them out of harm's way, like cats, until they hopefully get better. Course if they keep trying to get away, might be more harm to them and a black bird is bigger. My N.N> has a Focus and he loves it and I think it will be a lot easier for you to drive also. Not so big. My Dh is a Chevy guy but Has to drive the old Ford Explorer we bought from my youngest son now. I just wish he could get a better old plow truck with lighter plow but....
Mo, hope your Dh and you are feeling ok now. I saw a older woman went through the whole marathon in NYC, fell and bumped her head once but went on but died the next day Guess she really wanted to do it though.
Angii, hope you get to do what you want today and also get to relax a bit!
Sue, sounds like a great trip at least for the mammo and hope you hear soon and its all ok. Have a good day today and don't overdo it!
Guess I will stick at home as usual for today anyway. I wish I could get those tires on quickly but they have to order them from GB and then make appt. I did go out to eat with older son last night, then got some groceries but didn't go other store for things I wanted. Got bottles of water to. Wasn't to bad at work as enough workers. Just sore in places. Have a good evening everyone! I'm trying to get used to the time change to. I feel more tired earlier is all Yah
Yah, what a pretty picture . You know I love to see the snow just don't like to drive in it . I hope we get snow while we are in Ohio during Christmas .
Yes, Mo that is what I ordered I thought it was a good deal alto now my DD says she woud have preferred 5 # weights to start off with . LOL but she will take them anyway . Once she gets settled a little more she is going to go back to the gym and won;t need them anyway. Did you happen to see my GD on my Treadmill that I posted on Facebook. Everytime she comes over she wants to get on so I am hoping fittness will be a part of her life at an early age.
OH my Golly , Maybe we need to stay in Alabama . I just called to see why we haven't gotten our Real Estate tax bill yet . They are due in Oct but you have until Dec to pay. Welll she said the reason you didn't get one is because you are exempt . HUH!!!! Then she said we don't make enough to have to pay them. So I guess there are some good things about getting old. !!!!!!!! Made my day for sure altho they are only 400 anyway .
So a good day.
Sue waiting to see how your test came out. They tell us before we leave the office and then of course we get a letter also.
Well I got the fringe on the zebra blanket so all done with that . NOw I want to go and buy some hot pink for some pillows to go with it.
need to get the mail in bbl
Afternoon Wowers,
We missed the bigger snow storm, YAH. It went south of us. We're getting a little now, but just a few flurries.
The local tech company found a new computer for me with Windows 7 and a fast processor. It's ordered and will probably be here early next week.
Nice on the real estate taxes, Bama, I guess!
One of my aurora photographs was on TV - but they credited the wrong person. They said they would fix it but I don't know if there's a link on their web page. I'm on a northern lights hunter page on Facebook. They had a big gathering last weekend that we were supposed to go to, but we ended up not going. Anyway, the local Fox meteorologist is doing a special story on aurora chasing that is going to air tonight and tomorrow and he and his video guy were there. They had asked for a bunch of us to submit photos and they chose mine for the promo. I'm pleased, of course, and the photo had our watermark on it, but another woman got the credit. If they fix it and I get a link I'll post it.
I have a big pot of applesauce on the stove so I'd better go check on it. I'm going to make apple butter in the crockpot overnight. I overbought apples. I still have 3 more big bags. Anyone have any ideas for Cortlands? They really get a little too mushy for a crisp or pie. Maybe I'll have DH go get the dehydrator from storage. Have a good evening!
Barb, glad you found windows 7 . Very uncomplicated . My laptop is 7 and I like it .
Yep Cheap living in Alabama but if you like snow and cold weather you wouldn't like it here. They do sale coats in the store in winter but they are not used much . Usually just a sweat shirt is needed in January, February . we are in th low 80's today . another thing you have yard work a lot longer then the Nortand a lot more bugs as they don't die here because of weather .
Your applebutter sounds great . While in Ohio Meijers had all kinds on sale for 54 cents a pound . I should have stocked up on them for here but did not . Apples are always expensive here since they have to be shipped in.
Well time to settle down for the evening .
Have a great evening all.
Afternoon ladies!!!! I had a great day. I took Charger to the park for a few hours, and then I took a shower and got ready to go to my coach. I am down another 2 pounds, and 2.5 inches! Then I went and passed out 75 invites at the college, and then I stopped by my insurance agent to ask about a letter they sent, I found out that my Agent is on the product and his distributor has stopped selling it. So I have a potential customer! Yippy skippy! I am a happy girl!
I will be back later!
Good for you Angii, You deserve good things coming your way.
Good morning,
Yay, on the pounds and inches, Angii. Also the potential new customer.
Glad you are able to get Windows 7. Barb. My Gala apples are starting to go too, I need to do something with them. Not sure what yet. I'll probably just make some sauce and freeze it. Sorry about the mix up on the photo. I hope you get the credit that you deserve.
Hooray on the tax exemption, Alabama. Taxes there are a lot less than PA. Glad you are able to gift the throw. I am sure your GD will love it.
Your snow picture is pretty, YAH. Glad you didn't have to drive in it on your bad tires. I hope your new tires arrive sooner than you expect.
Nice that your DD came over to aunt sit so you could go out yesterday, Molasses. Hope you got your errands all run. Sorry your exercise was delayed.
We missed you yesterday, Sue. Guess you had a busy day. Hope all is well there.
Nothing much doing here. We cleaned gutters and raked leaves when we got home from running errands yesterday. DH said the gutters were packed completely full of maple seeds. Good thing we got them done since it's raining today. On the plus side it's 30 degrees warmer this morning. I get my first Synvisc injection this morning. I need to run to the hospital after that and get blood work done for my breast MRI later this month. DH mentioned going to the mall after my blood work. I read on line that you aren't supposed to stand more than an hour at a time for 48 hours after the injection. We'll see rather or not the nurse gives me any restrictions and decide about the mall after that. My knee doesn't last too long walking but I gotta keep moving. The old, "use it or lose it". Took my car for an estimate yesterday. I don't have a figure or an appointment yet. His wife wasn't in and she had the computer. We can stop in and check again on our way home today. Guess that's it from here.
Have a great day.
Got my work finished plus cleaned the Master Bedroom and Bath cleaned except for the tub and I really hate to do it . It's a whirlpool and not easy to clean. The plumber is coming today again and he will be working on it sooo I figured I should wait on cleaning. Lucy is busy with towels and then later a few loads .
I am having Oikos Greek yogurt key lime flavor for breakfast. It is so good. Birdie had mentioned it and have been buying since.,
Plumber is on the way so need to get dressed .

Police station janitor Penrod Pooch becomes Hong Kong Phooey by zipping through a filing cabinet and fights crime with his cat Spot.
For his day job, Penrod Pooch worked as a police station janitor, which wasn't nearly as glamorous as it sounds. His fellow employees, clumsy Sgt. Flint and nasal-voiced switchboard operator Rosemary, referred to him as Penry and thought he was a nice enough guy, albeit a mild-mannered one.
Little did they know that when a call came in for a crime too difficult for Sgt. Flint to handle, even-keeled Penry leapt into a filing cabinet and emerged as Hong Kong Phooey, Number One Super Guy! Actually, the file cabinet would get stuck in every episode, and Penry would need some help from his faithful cat Spot, who, with a well-placed elbow or a swift kick, would allow Penry to emerge from the cabinet as Hong Kong Phooey, Number One Super Guy!
Unfortunately, the filing cabinet was the only place Penry felt comfortable changing into Hong Kong Phooey. This posed quite a challenge for poor Spot, who was often sent back to the police station to retrieve the cabinet so Penry could change.
After Phooey had escaped the cabinet, he and Spot would leap into the alley behind the police station, landing a dumpster which housed the truly remarkable Phooeymobile. All it took was one crash of Phooey's gong, and the Phooeymobile could transform into any mode of transportation, no matter how primitive (pogo stick, unicycle) or advanced (jet plane, hovercraft).
While Phooey was not the world's greatest crime fighter, he may have been the world's luckiest, as every week either Spot or, by accident, the criminals themselves would make sure that justice prevailed. Phooey, armed with his "Hong Kong Book of Kung Fu," was around just long enough to receive the credit. Switchboard operator Rosemary would then swoon over Phooey, never realizing he was secretly the janitor whom she virtually ignored every day at work.
Veteran character actor Scatman Crothers provided the voice for Penry/Phooey, and his comic timing brought an extra spark to the role. There were only 16 original episodes of the show, which ran from 1974-76 on ABC, but Phooey's klutzy chop-socky style was too popular with the kids to fade away so quickly. The kung fu pooch moved over to NBC, where his nearly-heroic adventures ran off and on until Fall 1981, giving him a chance to back up his theme song's boastful title, "Number One Super Guy!"

Quote:In 1951, Topps produced its first baseball cards in two different sets known today as Red Backs and Blue Backs. Each set contained 52 cards, like a deck of playing cards, and in fact the cards could be used to play a game that would simulate the events of a baseball game. Also like playing cards, the cards had rounded corners and were blank on one side, which was colored either red or blue (hence the names given to these sets). The other side featured the portrait of a player within a baseball diamond in the center, and in opposite corners a picture of a baseball together with the event for that card, such as "fly out" or "single". Topps changed its approach in 1952, this time creating a much larger (407 total) set of baseball cards and packaging them with its signature product, bubblegum. The company also decided that its playing card model was too small (2 inches by 2-5/8 inches) and changed the dimensions to 2-3/4 inches by 3-5/8 inches with square corners. The cards now had a color portrait on one side, with statistical and biographical information on the other. This set became a landmark in the baseball card industry, and today the company considers this its first true baseball card set. Many of the oil paintings for the sets were rendered by artist Gerry Dvorak, who also worked as an animator for Famous Studios. In 1957, Topps shrank the dimensions of its cards slightly, to 2-1/2 inches by 3-1/2 inches, setting a standard that remains the basic format for most sports cards produced in the United States.It was at this time Topps began to use color photographs in their set.

"I would expect to see prices move up even as the industry struggles to meet the projected demand for the holiday season," Caldwell said.
Meanwhile, business is "terrific" at Gourmet Mushrooms Inc., Sebastopol, Calif., said Meg Hill, director of sales and marketing.
Sales are up compared with last year, have doubled over the past five years, and could double again, she said.
She attributes the sales burst to consumers discovering the savory quality of the firm's gourmet mushrooms, along with the Mushroom Council's "swapability" program, in which chefs or homemakers swap mushrooms for meat as they prepare meals.
The best may be yet to come, she said, since the third and fourth quarters typically are the company's strongest sales periods.
The good news for the mushroom industry is that demand continues to increase, especially for the brown or crimini varieties, said Bill St. John, sales and transportation manager for Kitchen Pride Mushroom Farms Inc., Gonzales, Texas.
The bad news is that prices are remaining stable or even dropping at a time when the costs of compost, wheat straw, packaging and personnel are on the rise and "a real concern," he said.
