This is the better of the articles I found and has a picture although it isn’t the best one of the bad slide of boulders closing I-40 both ways for months. I hope the link works. I’ll see here in a minute.
Just had my breakfast and in a few minutes I will medicate the Boss and then get up on the treadmill for my reward.
I watched DWTS last night. The Judges taking out the dancers in the mambo were exactly the choices I had made except Aaron Carter deserved better. They are really being too picky with him. He, Joanna and Donny are the forerunners I think. The rest may as well go home and Mya has an attitude if I ever heard one. Donny is the most "real" of any I have ever seen on that show.
That boulder slide is fifty feet tall for pity sakes and 100 yards long out there on the Interstate. Going through a week ago, I noted a few boulders on the side of the road against the netting that helps keep them from making contact with the road. However, these are huge boulders that weigh the proverbial ton and netting, however strong isn’t able to contain those when they start down. We have had HUGE amounts of rain as you have read me complain about (it’s raining NOW!) which they speculate is the biggest driver of this disaster.
Yesterday someone pulled out in front of us who were minding our business going down the road, and pulled into the passing lane where they went along at a leisurely 15 mph under the speed limit. My fork lift for the front of the car (that I have often spoken of that I wished I had to flip these people physically off the road) was in the shop or I would have cured that situation. Instead I would have to use the fork lift I install on the grocery cart to keep malingerers out of the way for pete sakes! MOVE out of my way you slow poke!
Gotta get dressed for the treadmill and get her medicine ready for that beautiful ear of hers.

Hey Carole, so glad you did that litle update on DWTS as I had a meeting last night to attend and missed it. My fav to win is Donny and has been since day 1, have alway loved him and Marie, they are class acts as people.. Hope your day goes well. Cuddles for the Boss……………….Rusty ((HUGS))
I agree, Donny is my favorite on DWTS and am pulling for him. I don\’t vote tho so I guess I can\’t complain if he doesn\’t. And don\’t even get me started on Mya. I don\’t know if she\’s really like that and could very well be a real nice person but she doesn\’t give that impression. The look on her face tells me that she thinks she\’s the best. She is good but gosh.
That\’s right. Get out of my way. What\’s that racing (I think they attribute it to Dale Sr.) saying, "Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way." One did that to us on the way to the wedding last week and at the stop where he could turn right on red just sat there til it turned green, grrrrr.I so agree on DWTS and think with the double eliminatio coming up the two to go should be Michael and Louie. They just don\’t have it. And, Len needs to get on Mya for her attitude like he did Mario Lopez when he was on.
I read the article. It is very frightening to think of coming upon something like that. Is there an alternate route for you to get to your son\’s home?
I hate those kinds of drivers too, but I always hang back from them and just take a deep breath. I\’ve seen them cause too many crashes. I think Donny has so much talent. Do you remember Bobby (who danced as a Mousekateer and on the Lawrence Welk Show)? What a super dance he would have been on that show! Hope Miss Catt is doing better.
I saw those boulders on our news… looks not good. Yikes!
You seem to be having a time of it
So happy you were no where near that slide. sheesh you would think they would KNOW that eventually that was going to happen.Isn\’t Donny trying to at least get as far as Marie? I think I heard him say that somewhere along the way. When you\’ve been dancing and singing since 5 I guess you are pretty good at it. : )
We saw that story on our local news last night. Sure glad you weren\’t traveling in that direction yesterday. I thought Lenny was being very generous with his scores last night. Hope Michael goes home tonight.
We have rockslides here…it\’s just there\’s of few people in our state it seldom matters! Happy treadmillin\’!
I saw it on the news this morning. I am so happy you were not near there when it happened. I hope Ms Catt cooperated this morning for you. I hope the rain stops before more slides happen!
Hey Carole… I really like the massage chair. It is the Brookstone one with foot massage. It helps with my feet, calves, back of my thighs and back all the way up to my neck. It doesn\’t help with my ribs or front. It also helps me relax. If I can\’t sleep I have gotten up and sat in it and gone to sleep when I got back in bed. On the negative side… it was A LOT of money… but I use it almost every day. I am even going to have a Mr. Fred party… that is what I call him… Mr. Fred… Love, Marilyn
So far we having a good weather but at north of states had flash-flooding the highest October falls in 11 yaers.Hopefully we don\’t get that much rain in here.xoxoxoSis!
I\’m one of those people pulling U-turns in the isle. I only go in as far as I need to & get out!I saw that thing on the flu- The flu knocks you on your ass & you KNOW when you have it, you are spewing & wanna die- the cold just is nasal misery that seems to never end. (giggle)
Boulder Slide eh?Now I am listening to Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, funny how that works.Oh and my Virtual Truck of course has rocket launchrs to take care of maligngeres, of course when I am gawking as usual on the road on my photo trips, I have sheilds that reflect shuch things from unruly techies in my arear.Hugs from Alaska
