Big Brother, (and Black Bees)?

What's With BLACK Bees?

Good Morning Everyone.
Yes. We are alive.
(And yes, I realize that is good news for some, mediocre news for others).
hehehe

I have been wrestling with my Yahoo 360 site for a while now, and can only hope this posts. About a year ago, Yahoo told us of the new blog thing, promising they would have it done by the first of the year.
Silly us, we thought they meant
2008.
But it continues to fail, this dying horse of ours... At least you all know where to find me in the event that it goes completely patooey.

Oddly too, I have been fighting with my Flickr page as well. (Knowing this is one of Yahoos products I suppose I am not entirely surprised at this)...

I was however, completely surprised by my email...

And after fighting with Flickr,
I have at least managed to save two of the pictures there.

This is Number One Grandson,
Our Little Lawrence!
(Thank you William)!

Kind of reminds me of myself at his age...
(All skin; covering a skeleton of energy).
He is, and will remain, MUCH better looking than I ever was.

I thank you again William, from the bottom of my heart!

And Lawrence's littler brothers do too!

Gabriel thinking "get RID of the camera already"
hehehe

That all said I must get busy...
Am going to throw the OPEN sign on, and maybe get rid of a few things in the shed!

Love to all.

Have a "wunnaful" weekend!

XOXO
Anne

  1. You are so right about 360!!! I shut down my flickr on my page and really think I need to just go in and delete my flickr account. I don't ever use it anymore 'cause it never works....yahoo definitely needs to get its head outta its arse and fix things. And they wonder why their profits are going down--no one wants to be on a site that is so messed up that one can hardly do a thing on it.

    good pics, too!!!

  2. Good Afternoon. Ugh on Yahoo, it hasn't been letting me post my blogs so I just do it over here. A lot of my friends have moved here but not all of them and that makes me sad to not be able to share my post with them. So Ugh on Yahoo!!! I am sorry about your Flikr account too. I love the pictures you shared what great grandkids you have. Since I am new here what do you mean by throwing the open sign on?? LOL I hope your day will be great! Hugs your way

  3. I've given up on 360 alongggg time ago..although I do stop into see friends that haven't moved yet and post now and again, I don't count on it.

    I followed you and Caseyface here and have loved it since hehe.

    Lawrence is so handsome..I hope you get to see him often.

    Gabriel and lil Sam are so adorable..and me thinks that Gabe is quite used to the camera..as a matter of fact he'd probably be disappointed if you didn't have it or he'd think something is wrong with you:)

    Have a Blessed rest of your day and I hope sales are up lol xoxo

  5. Everyone and everything wants to be in Flintville. In fact Khoolaid will be in the neighborhood on Thursday - Packer game + free tickets = road trip.

    Don't think the schedule will allow it, but if I have the time I'll stop by and say hi. If not this trip maybe the next trip. We hit the Cup O Joy in Green Bay at least once a year and you'll an added attraction to our adventure.
    Peace - Khoolaid

  6. Sweet Pam;
    I'm not sure what I would do without Flickr. (Will have to ask Greg)!
    hehehe

    Mehtinks Yahoo is finding out the hard way that it's the little people that really DO matter.
    So far, there has been little noise from them about us peons.

    XOXO

  7. Sweet Sheri!
    UGH is right!
    A lot of my friends have also come here... But yes, I do go back to try to even catch up on the ones that have not.
    And the Y! won't even allow me to read all the time. God forbid if I try to leave a comment...
    So far, (KNOCK ON WOOD), I have been able to post my blogs, save for a few...

    Now, as far as the "Open" sign goes...
    I have always loved to have yard sales and such. And have been trying for a couple of years now to get this one open. With Casey so dangerously (and sporadically) sick/hospitalized etc, it has been virtually impossible to get this sale up and going.
    And then there are the LONG winters...

    I still have a few bags to mark, but after almost 3 years of everyone dropping things off, I have no room left in the shed to put anything anymore...

    Love to you
    And thank you for asking too!

    XOXO
    Me

    Sweet WYCK;
    I sit here and read your comment very literally... Wonder what gabriel WOULD say if I didn't have my camera???
    "What's WRONG with grandma?"
    hehehe

    Lawrence is handsome!!! Smart too. Like his father, I do believe that young man of ours will go a long way!
    I only WISH I could see him more often- The price of gas, the CaseySick, and all else have prohibited me from getting anywhere near Alabama for too long.
    (of course any time away is too long)...

    Love to you

    XOXO

  10. Mr KhoolMan!
    Like I said above, Yahell won't let me do a darned thing... So when you come up on Thursday, please bring some of RPD's blueberries!
    hehehe
    You will recognize me by the green and gold I will be wearing...
    (Oh wait, this is Green bay Packers Territory...)...

    Your schedule won't allow it???? BITE YOUR TONGUE!!!
    I am only about 20 minutes from town, so just leave an hour or so early.
    There.
    ALL Better.
    ...And looking forward to seeing you!

    XOXO
    Anne

    Oh and I want to thank you publicly here for leaving your prayers on our little Baby Mariahs page too!

  11. Sadly, I gave up on Yahoo360 long ago. So far back that I never trusted to even open an account with flicker. My page remains...still waiting to see what these changes may be.....if they ever become????

    Lawrence looks like he is doing well and a boy scout too....good for him :)

    I am still amazed with how natural and "mothery" Marie looks with baby Sam....she truly is an angel.

    Good luck with the sale today.....I hope everything goes and leaves your shed empty and your pocketbook FULL !!!

  12. Sweet BethieBaby!!!
    I already put the sign on... (Wanting to catch the people on their way to church).
    hehehe
    But no, my pocketbook won't be full today... I haven't even put it in the paper.
    Casey has an appointment tomorrow, and I didn't want everyone and their brothers knowing what I have in there, locks or not.

    I will advertise it Tues through Saturday... And see if that helps.

    Lawrence is just perfect isn't he?
    And so is Miss Marie!
    (You are correct on both assessments)!

    Love to you!

    XOXO

  13. That's one of the reasons why I barely bother with Y360 anymore. I have better things to do than wait for pages to load (-if they load without an error message!)

    I haven't seen any "Black Bees". I've had swarms of Yellow Jackets this year though - they're everywhere!

    Those grandkids - could they be any cuter, sweeter, handsomer? I think not!

  14. Good afternoon Bart,
    Got the yards mowed.. got the back half of the house cleaned.. just taking a break..

    What wonderful pictures of the grandsons.. very handsome indeed!

    As to yahell.. I surely dont know what to do with it all. I try to post and sometimes it takes it and sometimes it dont.. sometimes it makes me think it didnt take it and it does..

    sometimes it lets me comment.. sometimes it dont.. Its all so cornfusing

    I figure I will just let it continue on as it is until I get so fed up with it all that I cant stands it no more

    Well breaks over and time to get back on my head.. you have a wonderful Monday!

  15. Hi Miss Anne,

    Yes, I too am still alive and kicking!

    I haven't given up on 360 yet, although I don't know why. Probably because I hate Multiply, don't really like Myspace, Blogspot just doesn't have enough features that I like, and on and on.

    I have also been oh so busy with work and home, and we did manage to go camping for a week as well.

    I am going to try really hard to come and catch up some because I have no clue what is going on with anyone these days!

    Oh yeah, CUTE kids you have there!

  16. Sweet RT!

    I have seen many of the YJ's too... A few honey bees and many bumbles... Just never a completely BLACK one.
    They all give me the creeps too. (Methinks I can swell up just thinking about them all).
    hehehe

    Thank you for the comment about the grandboys!
    Each and every one of them such gorgeous young men!

    Love to you

    XOXO
    Anne

  17. Sweet Beep!
    That pictures makes me almost cry!
    Poor dam dog...

    You are SOOOOO busy all the time, and that is such a good thing.
    BUT, it's not always too healthy either.
    (Watch out or by Wednesday you might be coming down with something)...

    Glad you stopped by during your break! And I hope that by now you are fast asleep!

    Love to you both

    XOXO

  18. Sweet Karen!
    I surely HOPED you were alive and kicking!
    hehehe

    The damn bees ate my beautiful butterflys this year. But I am not about to scold them either)!

    Happy you got to at least go camping... Methinks I should have left in June and not come home yet!
    hehehe

    Love to you

  19. Holy Carp that boy is HUGE!!! My baby tipped the scales at 50 lbs last week. Watch out KC!!! he he he. All kidding aside. Time passes too fast, which is a bummer because life is so friggin short. Live in every moment.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Sweet SD;

    What is this holy "CARP" all about?
    Do you have some special kind of blessed fish there?

    Time really DOES pass too fast...
    And marches on irregardless of people and things.
    Sometimes it leaves us all behind- Sometimes it passes us up too.
    But always remember that no matter the day, the sun will come up tomorrow.

    Love to you

    XOXO
