HayDay Friends Off-Topic

I'm just trying to catch up. Man, you guys are prolific these days! I love all the stories of what's precious. So many good ideas and stories....

:) It's really not an exciting story, just means a lot to me. Hubby (John) and I used to enjoy browsing round a particular antique shop in Seattle. I spotted this little vase and completely fell in love with it. Don't really know why, I see lots of pretty things in there, but this vase just drew me in. I always admired it, but it was $65 and we were broke, and I couldn't justify spending it. For months I saw this little vase and would always pause at the cabinet it was in and peek at it for a couple of minutes. One day we went in and it had sold :( I was gutted! If I couldn't have it at least I wanted to be able to look at it! John said to talk to the shop owner and ask if it was really sold, or maybe moved, and she said sold" :( I was irrationally sad about it. Three weeks later on my birthday John gives me a present - the little vase was mine! Bawled my eyes out! The End. GC: EyeC999 Level 86

This is a fantastically awesome story! Love it. You are a lucky girl to have such a thoughtful man!

This is a great topic. So many nice stories. It's good to stop and reflect on what truly matters every once in a while..... If my house was on fire, I'd try to get all the photos out! Not worth a hill of beans, except to me. GC: pristoph ......... HD Level 53.....DV Level 32

I agree. We flooded in 2005 and I was so thankful the photo albums were on the second floor, not in the basement. So many photos of people long since gone. It would break my heart to lose those. Useless to anyone else; priceless to me.

Weird thread day, huh? I had a super busy work day, got home late, laid on the sofa to try and recover, had some dinner and then it was almost bedtime. Didn't open up HD or anything else on the iPad till now. Ideas for the next Avi change? Hmmmmm.....I'm stumped. We could do another color I guess. Or knick-knacks....I like looking at other people's knick-knacks :). GC: pristoph ......... HD Level 53.....DV Level 32

I like this Val: knick knacks. How about photos of the strangest thing in your house?

Dang! If WE both missed it then so did everyone else!! Maybe the rapture is everyone goes to H E double toothpicks and Earth is the new Heaven! So maybe we DID make it!!! Lol! :). You're so funny! But a CREAM boat is not funny!! ;). Maybe we can do an AC of what each person pictures as their afterlife. Heaven, Hell, Void, Limbo, Planet Owner, back on Earth as something else. I don't know all the different beliefs. Hhmmmm. I'm sure that won't be it but it would be interesting! I almost started my Question of the Day again here because it is so dead... When someone fills a crate on you boat, do you think "Sweetheart" or "Sucker"? Ha! Do you remember those Questions of the Day? It was before we became friends! One I asked was: When finished fishing, do you press the boat or the home button to get back to your farm? Do you remember? I have some other good questions I'll ask down the road! I hope you are well, my dearest Samantha! :)

OK, lots to comment on, so here goes:
1. Took me 5 minutes to understand what "H E double toothpicks" means...so maybe I'm not going THERE, but need to go back to school? :D
2. The cream boat was as a result of me mis-calculating, or mis-remembering just HOW many creams I had....coulda sworn I had more...maybe got robbed?
3. I always think "sweetheart" and rush to their stand and buy something to say "thanks" :)
4. Seriously - I want to have a long talk with the person who thinks they'll become a planet owner in the afterlife! And what kind of a reward is that? I would spend all my time here being extremely naughty if that was my reward for being good! Would be realllllly upset if I found out that was my reward for abstaining from sex, drugs and rock and roll all this time!!!!!! (Wonder if any of that will get bleeped?)
5. I love the question of the day idea - my question would be "do you play with the sound effects and/or music on or off?"
6. I am very well thank you, dear, sweet Carolyn, :)
7. I haven't got a seventh point, actually.

So, for those who don't know (and because I wasn't allowed to say this word when I was young) H E double toothpicks is ........ Hell. !! :)

Hey Sam, I like your Avi pic! GC: pristoph ......... HD Level 53.....DV Level 32
Thanks! I took this pic while walking my dog in the fall - I used my iPhone...was surprised how well it came out! It was actually a panoramic shot. Here it is up close:

Both pics are sooo beautiful! The one you chose as your avatar is more tranquil and almost lonely. I didn't think that at all until seeing your pano... The color and vibrancy of life is so evident even in the fall! Beautiful, my dear!
 
Hi all,
Like the idea of the strangest or weirdest thing in your house, also like another color or a pic of your abode, pretty much game for all.
You guy's pick, long as we are back to the BRONCOS by Friday.
Still taking bet's with the Seahawks fan's
Back late tomorrow, DR. Appt. with folks, again!
Later,
D

Another thought!
While we were cleaning the garage yesterday. My guy cannot bear to get rid of many things, so how about what you hoard, and why?
Just a thought.
