Big fan as a kid of the OG Parent Trap movie with Hayley Mills, greaterexp ...have a good Coffee Talk, everyone!
- John, MSAA
I told my wife to embrace her mistakes. She hugged me!
Ha! I read that we are just a few days from discovering everyone's real hair color.
A blonde man is in the bathroom and he shouts “ I don’t know what to do. This shampoo is for dry hair and I’ve just wet mine”
Hello everyone! I have been laid off this week (yes, coronavirus), so I can finally participate in our coffee break.
There is usually a silver lining somewhere! Glad you could be here!
Glad you could make it. It's probably better that you're at home instead of out mingling with the public. This is too much going on out there. Stay hunkered down at home and enjoy the company of the chat room!
How’s everyone keeping? Any fevers, coughs? Are you keeping yourselves occupied?
I'm working on 2 quilts, but have taken time away to help hubby with his work a bit and am sewing like crazy to make fabric masks for friends, family, and medical places. I'm using up all that ugly batik fabric I bought inexpensively to use for long arm quilting practice.
Great question! I'm doing well he's in my head low at home. How is everyone else doing. We need to keep track of anyone who's feeling ill especially if you have a fever, with a have the dry hacky cough and trouble breathing. We want to make sure we support you with good thoughts, good wishes, and lots of love when you need it most so let us know. And if you're feeling good we just love to hear from you and know you're okay too!
I have some of that too! Thinking like you, it could be used for making some pretty masks! Had another thought. This mask thing is gonna be with us for a pretty long while. If you made a plain mask, then either draw, write, sew or iron on a mouth and nose design, in a smile - then put the folds in, and stitch up the edges - When you put it on, you'd have a nice happy face to give everyone who sees you! (This morning I went to my local Walmart wearing my husband's N95 mask that has green camoflage design on it! I greeted everyone I saw, who looked at me, with a "Trick or treat." The aisles cleared fairly quickly for me!!!! I only saw one person who I actually knew, which was a good thing!
Only the N95 and N100 are suitable against the virus. Masks made of material are ok for allergies but that’s it.
True, but some people feel they help keep our hands away from our faces, may filter out a few germs, or may extend the life of other masks. I’m only making these for medical establishments that want them.
Also protects coughs and sneezing 🤧 👍🙏😉🐾🐾 Ken
My niece is a nurse on a Covid floor at one of our hospitals. My sister told me her mask was nasty because they wouldn't replace them until they fell apart. I told her to put some essential oil on a cloth one, then put the "official" one over so she wouldn't smell it anymore. Worked well!
I woke up this morning looking like Great-Grandma Hedgehog! Bad enough I was due for color 2 weeks ago, but the " style" was too much!
This is everyone’s chance to try something new
I think we are all grateful that this isn't a video call. Even after doing my hair, it looks awful.
What is everyone doing to remain positive right now? My husband is home working now, so I laugh with him often. As I leave him to his work in the dining room and I head off to my sewing room, I always say, "Have a good day, Ralph." And he says, "Have a good day, Sam." That's only funny if you remember old cartoons. Whenever I do anything for him to help with technical issues or even when he sneezes, and I say, "Bless you," I tell him I'm putting it on his tab.
My hubby was drilling beans and he lifted a tonne bag up with the forklift and it slipped off the tine and fell, bursting a bag of seed beans everywhere. He came home in a huff, then to top it all he picked up a spare bag to take down to the field and as he is driving along there was a field mouse running up his trouser leg.
I'm sorry about the spilled seeds. I hope he can laugh about the field mouse running up his leg. I'm glad that's all it was!
The field mouse lost his way looking for beans? 
I doubt it got out alive the mood he was in😂
The mouse or your hubs?
Ha!
Funny one, greaterexp I would have a problem as my sewing room is my dining room!
Good to see you Carole, it’s a hard time for lemons! 🍋
Yes, as I am drinking lemonade like crazy!
I hope that the bathroom is handy 🚽
Actually, the closest commode is out of order because the hubs is painting it as we converse. So, I am on the lemonade exercise routine! It really works! I get my steps in, no problem! Now, if you will excuse me...
Oui Madame
May I borrow that phrase? "Lemonade exercise" says a lot!
Thank you!
I'm really blessed not to have to share an office. It wouldn't bother me so much, but would really distract my poor husband.
You're too pretty!
I wish! But my constant up and down to the cutting table and then to the ironing board and back around to the sewing machine would be a little much.
I'm so glad we get along so well. I'm hearing some people are not coping well with the disruption in their schedules.
It's interesting time. I keep asking people how long they think it will last. The general consensus is 1 year.
If they let people out too early it will start again. We are all being taught patience.
Absolutely agree.
This time will pass. Our grandchildren will laugh about all the antics we got up to.
That's one of my biggest fears is the let us out saying it's done and 10 weeks later we will be right back in the middle of the second wave. Only now we have contaminated everybody else who wasn't contaminated the first time. I can't afford it I don't know about you but it scares me to death.
2020 will be known as the year that wasn't! How often do you see the USA completely shut down. If you would have told me five years ago this would happen I would have said you were wrong our modern medicine was too strong. Well boy was I wrong! I never thought ever thought this could happen in this day and time. That makes it all the more scary and real to me. How about you?
My husband works with TSA so he's still working with 1 extra day off due to very little travel. So, I have him home with me 3 days a week. He does all the grocery shopping & some of the cooking & I do most of the clean-up. It's working well so far..
That's terrific! I'm glad to have my hubby home, too. He runs errands for us. My life hasn't changed much, except I cook three meals a day instead of one, and I have to put the toilet seat down more. Ha!
My hubby wouldn’t dare leave it up, he knows what can happen 😂
Yes, my hubs has brought out the crowbar a number of times to save me!
Ouch, I know the feeling
Well when I raised Three Sons and had the forth boy, my husband, I was always glad to see the seat up. That way I knew they weren't going to be any polkadot surprises on the seat when it was down! LOL! You catch my drift I believe! LOL.
You're so right! It can always be worse!
Yes, I do
I trained my husband when we were first married to put the seat down. I came from a house full of girls and wasn't used to checking. Right after we were first married in the middle of the night he awoke to a loud splash and scream. He put the seat down from then on. He is a good and thoughtful husband.
Oh, dear! I have such a wonderful husband, but the toilet seat thing has never caught on for him! I’ve learned to just be careful!
YES, always
Who is here, please put your hand up so that I can see you 👍
My hands have been up all this time! I am still too short to be seen!
I was late is always so my hands are up but they were in the next room and you couldn't see them! Well they are up now and hope you know I've been here and can see them now! It still counts right! LOL!
I'm here, but hiding where you can't see my bad hairdo.
I solved the hair thing! I cut my hair very short! But I still hide...
I just got a new toy to play with. Men’s hair clippers. Is my hubby in for a shock when he comes home. ( maybe not tonight, he’s already had a bad day)
That's what my hairdresser uses to cut my hair! I must invest in one as it looks easy to use. Just use the right attachment so you don't take off too much ~ like your ear!
There was a man shot over 300 times with an upholstery gun, but now he's fully recovered.

I'm late!! As always!🤣😂
Better late than never! So glad you could join the fun!
Jesmcd2CommunityAmbassador
To keep busy, I have actually started to unpack!🤣😂
Hubby reorganized the attic last weekend from when we moved in a couple of years ago. We were astonished at some of what we found! It's was like Christmas!
Ugggh! I moved to my house in 1995, and I think that there are boxes in the attic that have yet to be unpacked! I did do a few boxes of books a couple of years ago, and those books were donated to the library for their fun raiser! There are many more boxes up there to be 'discovered'
It seems the older I get the more of a pack rat I become. We only moved in this new house 6 years ago and the attic is already overflowing . Amazing isn't it ! Anybody else feel that way?
I used to be until we moved and had to downsize. I don't ever want to have to move or deal with that much stuff again! We gave away about a half of a household!
Well I'm packing she keep you busy for weeks to come! You can kill two birds with one stone. You can keep yourself busy and you can get yourself organized and your new place together all at the same time! It looks like a win-win situation to me. When I finish can I fly you down and can you work on my house! LOL!
There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator. Will someone please laugh with me?
Ha!

Oh and for everyone interested 😁 Discovery is doing a 🦈 weekend!!! I'm sooooo excited!!! 🤣😂
I wish we got discovery but alas we don't. We poor people have to settle for basic local channels! Heck, we never watch the other channels anyway! And actually the real reason is my husband is so tight he squeaks! LOL! Seriously we didn't watch him all that much anyway.
My youngest son came home from school all excited one day from second grade. He comes running up to me and I could tell he was bursting to share something with me so I asked what was up? He excitedly tells me he finally met somebody else in his class that doesn't have cable just like us! I burst out laughing at the news. LOL! Did somebody already say from the mouths of babes. Boy does it fit!
Hey they are giving it for free! 🤣😂🤣 Otherwise it's Hulu for me!😊
Well I'll have to look into that. But then I I know my husband will never switch the channel off the Discovery Channel! A few hours a day is okay but not not stop okay. Maybe I will find it and maybe I won't even tell him about it! LOL! Sure is something I'll have to think about.
Everyone remember to hit the "refresh" button often so you may see replies.
An elderly couple are watching their wedding video together. The wife asks, why are you watching it backwards, to which the husband replies “ I like the part where I take the ring off and leave the church and go to the pub with my friends”
😳😂
Good one!
Well I made it! Better late than never. That reminds me of a joke about Texas. Not meant to offend any Texans out there. This is a very brief synopsis of it.
The traveling salesman had just started a new territory through Texas. He had never been in Texas before and he had driven for hours without seeing any place to stop. So I spies this Texas Steakhouse and casino up ahead and he decides to pull in. He's thirsty and hungry and he can't wait to get in. He saw doctors up to the bar and says he's new to Texas do they have something to drink and eat?
The bartender laughs and sits on your in Texas I'll take care of you now. He brings up this mug of beer that's a half a keg big and set it up in front of the guy and says will this cut your thirst? The salesman laughs and says you bet and Dives into the beer. He's been drinking for a while and he was really starting to feel the effects of The Keg he was working on and he asked about something to eat. The bartender said I got to sit she says I forwarded the special for you it's our small steak and it should be out here very shortly. The salesmen smiled and nodded and don't you know just a minute or two later the steak comes out that is overflowing ever side of the serving platter. The salesman says my gosh this isn't a steak it's half of beef. The bartender smiles and says he forgot you're in Texas again to us that's a small steak. Well after the salesman ate part of the steak and drink more beer he has a pee like a racehorse and he asked the bartender where the restroom was.
The bartender told him new head down that Long Haul on the right and then go in the third door on the left. Be careful not to go on the third door on the right cuz that would lead him into trouble. And he smiled realizing the salesman was about half lit when he was giving him the directions. Salesman jumps up heads down the hall wobbling as he goes having an Old Willie Nelson song which is the only country music he ever knew. Hd was feeling good when he gets to the doors. He talks out loud thinking to himself now was it the third door on the left or third door on the right that would get me in trouble? He decides it's the third door on the right that he needs to go in. He's happily humming his song and stumbling along as he opens the door and stumbles straight into the indoor pool.
He goes all the way under and comes up sputtering and screaming at the top of his lung, "Please don't flush it, don't flush it!" Now you know the rest of the story. God love Texas! It is a state that knows no half measures! Fancy.
😂😂😂😂😂
Bill Gates
Don’t get Covid19 , wait for Covid20, it’s a new and improved version
😂😂😂
Yeah but the new and improved version of anything always cost more. But then I bet Bill Gates isn't worried about the $$$!
I sure appreciate you all! It's always so nice to laugh (and sometimes cry) together. What a great group we have here!
Jesmcd2CommunityAmbassador
So, I think we should get everyone to put candles in there windows...
We could all get "lit" together?
🤣😂🤣
That's a hoot, greaterexp Wait a minute? What is getting 'lit' mean?
Never mind, I just looked it up
🤣😂🤣😂
Yeah well I'd be the first one down I get to this all the silly things everyone else did!😍😘😄😆🤗🕯🕯🕯
As Carol Burnett sang, "I'm so glad we had this time together. Seems we just get started, and before you know it, comes the time we have to say, 'so long.'"
Love to you all! I have to get back to work! Have a great rest of your day.
Speak soon 🤗
Thank you, greaterexp for your efforts, and I look forward to the next time that we share a glass of lemonade
I’ll keep the seat down.
Thanks to all who were willing and able to be here.
Time for me to go too. Hubby will be in for his evening meal soon. As long as he doesn’t bring the mouse home for dinner, we should be ok 😂
That would be a 'tail' to tell, jimeka
It was great everyone! We need to get together like this more often! Especially when we have time on our hands like we do under lockdown. It is good for our souls to connect and to make merry during this time of uncertainty. Talk to you soon and make sure you stay safe and well until I speak to you again. Remember we are never alone we are alone together! Fancy.
I prefer Green tea, descafeinado coffe, chocolat without sugar better.
I have my morning coffee, and then a cup of green tea as a pick-me-up around noon. It's all good!
It is amazing that you have a friend with the same name 
I am late but better late than never. My girl friends and I always get together for brunch on Mondays. We have missed it so this coming Monday we are going to get together on zoom. It should be great.
missed the meet up but it was fun reading the fun
