I

I was the one in the PJ's on the couch, Val, lol! But it has been hot here, they've been counting how many days it's been over 80, which doesn't sound like much, but it is out here! It was over 90 for several days and there was lots of moaning and flapping about over it, hahaha! Have a lovely time in Reno, stay cool and stay trip home on Sunday Are you really working your fingers to the bone out there? Hmmm....lol!

You doubt me Sam? I have been helping pack up a house! And moving stuff to another house in 95 degree temps!

Oh, you poor, poor soul!!! My deepest commiserations! I wish you cool winds, cold beer, and many helping hands!

I've got a hunky retired UPS driver helping me unload today....him and his dolly! And I will get a nice steak dinner for my efforts today. I'm glad I'm here and able to help!

OMG!! It's gorgeous!! I love it!! Thank you!!

You are so sweeeeet!

Congratulations!!! Isn't it a wonderful thing? Lol!! And I'm of Scottish, Welsh, English, Dutch decent also Perhaps we're family somewhere?
I think we ARE family! ESP after you read my next comment!
And OMG, speaking of family! I swear from your avatar, Anthea, you and I could be related!! I had to do a double take I am not kidding....spooky...!

Really amazing similarity! Interestingly enough, I've told Anthea she looks like my sister! And her son looks like a combination of my sister's children! Lol!

Sexy!!! You go girl!!!

Carolyn, you look fantastic!

Thank you, darlings! I told you I'm doing great! Lol!

Oi! Sammy!! Where did you get that pic of me??? I've been looking for that for AGES!!! It's not often that I have blonde hair, so I like to document it for posterity. All these long lost relatives popping up all over the world!! Why aren't we all in the same place??

Please disregard the total fish eyeball effect of my picture, by the way!! I swear I'm not quite so disproportionate! Lol!!

It's very hard to take a selfie with an iDevice, with your elbow, as we all know. Actually, while Carolyn was away, I thought of suggesting an avi change, and I thought crazy hairstyles, (our own) photographed with elbow or toe, would be hugely fun, until I tried it! In my case, this involved left hand holding hair in crazy style, right knee wedging iPad against the arm of the chair, left hand helping to hold hair in crazy style, right elbow attempting to reach iPad, etc. I discovered that

• it is not possible to take a picture on an iPad with your elbow while wearing a thick winter jumper, and
• hair clips, pins, etc are really quite essential for such an undertaking, and
• I should be a lot less ambitious with my avi ideas, and
• it is absolutely imperative that I get out more.

Advanced Selfie Tricks:

If you have a set of Apple's headphones with the volume controls, you can use the plus (volume up) button as a remote shutter. The other option is to get one of the third party camera apps that have a timer function.

I am happy that you tried it out before the suggestion, lol. What an image that made.

ALPHABET GAME TIME!

Write a non-common word that uses the next letter of the alphabet. We will group the letters by threes so this doesn't take forever! Anyone can join in the fun!

I definitely need to get a set of these headphones!! I'm thinking they could enable even more advanced selfie tricks, like pressing the shutter with your chin, or upper right canine!

And, I think I even have one of those third party camera apps! I really need to explore it more. I'm getting excited about the possibilities now!!

Thanks for the suggestions.

This is how I spend my evenings. (When no one is looking)

Not that I'm trying to butter you up, or anything, but you look ridiculously young in that picture, too! Which is totally not fair at all, and I'd like to register a complaint, because you know I like to register all my complaints. I hope you're keeping track of them all in a handy manilla folder marked "Samantha's Complaints". Anyway, add "you look too flipping young" to the file, thanks.

No, Samantha, you may NOT have all my bolts!!

Unfortunately my manilla folder was overflowing to the point where I had to invest in a lever arch file, with subsections, to keep track of them all. The subsections Suspicious Words and Devious Spellings are particularly full.

I told you I was 28 - I'm starting to think perhaps you didn't believe me.
