Hello everyone, its been a good day. It's dark now I am ready for bed. Celticrose I mailed you it again. We will keep trying. I sent it to myself and it came so let me know if you got it. You keep well. Ok.. I am feeling fine thanks for asking..

Has anyone used the voting deal where you can vote for Celtic Radio? Do we have to fill the whole thing out? I haven't really checked it out but I am glad it is one of the chosen..

Well back to the reading.

Hi Rindy! I did receive it! LOL That is funny you sent it to yourself. It is late now, but thought I would check in and see what is going on.

Rindy, What voting thing? I don't know anything about that.

Hope all is well. Hubby is feeling better and I have been trying to get it. Had to take a nap today. Can't figure out if it is allergies or a cold.

Well everyone have a good weekend.

Hi CelticRose, I am glad you got it. I send things to myself that way I know if it's usually me and it usually is. Do you like it? I want to know your honest opinion. Kind of shows his age a bit, but who doesn't.

The voting thing if you haven't been there is in the Whats New Forum..

Seems like CR forums are picking up again.. Hard to keep up..

"thats a good thing"

Have a great evening....everyone.. smile.gif

WEll, to be honest with you Rindy, it is not one of my favorite pics of him. It is nice though. Do you know how old he is? I have often wondered that.

I found out about the voting thing when I went searching on the site here. I also voted too as I listen to Highlander radio all the time!

Well have a good night! Talk to you soon!

Hi CR, sounds like things are going well. I'm not sure what I like about the picture the natural look I guess. I don't know how old he is. Glad you found the voting I listen to it too, a lot..
Have a good night.

Hey Rindy! Hope you had a good day today. did you do anything special? We didn't. Didn't even go to church today. Just hanging around the house. Looking over some pics I have taken in the past to put in my shutterfly photo album. I have so many photographs it is disgusting, but I love to take pictures.

Did I tell you I ordered two more of Clann An Drumma CDs? I ordered Tried and True and Keep it Tribal. Can't wait to get them. I hope they come out with a DVD SOON.

We haven't seen or heard from gwenlee in a long time. I hope she is ok. I need to check on her.

Wonder where everybody else is in here?

Well have a good night. Talk to you later. Do you have a busy week planned? We have family coming up next Sunday so I will be working on the house again getting ready for them.

Slainte!

Hi dr, glad all is going well. Company again? You do entertain a lot huh? I have another girlfriend that loves to do that and she is good at it. I worked on my pictures all day also. I don't have that busy of a week. So far. You have a special day coming up on Wenesday huh? BIRTHDAY GIRL!!!!! I am going to start wishing you a Happy Birthday on the other forum starting tomorrow...

I know what you mean about taking pictures I love to do that to. Did you ever start scrapbooking? Mine kind of went by the wayside once I started the two forums. So did my reading. Although I am gonna turn in early so I can read awhile. Jamie is calling my name LOL laugh.gif
I am glad you got the two CD's. I like the Tried and True. I have had it for a long time. Tribal Waves I do like better as J say's its raw. Would be hard to do without back up stuff. You have that one don't you? Let me know what you think of Keep it Tribal. I ordered another shirt. I am washing and wearing the one I have so much thought I would get another. Plus it is a riot to wear around the tribes.. Hope it comes sooner than the last one. I think I ordered it in Nov and it came in March.. Long story. Let me know how soon you get yours. Post some of your fancy dancers and stuff on the forums..I wannna see..

Well got more catching up to do, Congrats Allen on your 3000 posts.

Hi to everyone else hope you had a great weekend and have a grand evening....

We do tend to have a lot in common Ròs!! I also love photography! I used to work at Sears Portait Studio! My kids are so used to pictures that they are my best subjects!!

BTW, I got your message from the other thread and here I am!! If I don't catch you tonight I hope you have a good one and a good day tomorrow!!

Hi Rindy! I don't normally entertain at all! In fact I hate it! LOL But there are three of us in Fred's family and myself having birthdays this week and we are all getting together to celebrate. Just turns out that our house is centrally located. The following weekend my girlfriend and her husband are coming up to celebrate my birthday as well! woo hoo! I have already started getting gifts, one of them an Amazon.com gc! I was thrilled to death about that as I have a wish list in there you wouldn't believe! LOL

I never did scrapbooking as I have no place to put all my photo albums. I put all my photos in these colored photo boxes and try to label them properly so I know where to find what.

I do have Tribal Waves and love it, but I wanted the other two as well as there are songs on there I really like as well.

I have a question. You said that you live on an Indian Reservation? How is it that you do? I know you have to be Native American to actually live on one. Are you or your hubby either one Native American or do you work on the Rez to do so? We have a lot of dealings with the Indians where I live. They call themselves Indians, so that is why I often call them that. Lord knows we have our share of Indian Casinos around here. You probably do too. Talk to you tomorrow!

I must go to bed to Nathaniel now! wink.gif laugh.gif

Hallo a charaid, Sonee!

Glad to see you here! Thanks for coming in. I thought we could share anything in here better and get to know each other better without taking over other topics, if you know what I mean. wink.gif

I love photography too. It was my major in college. I worked as an assistant to a photographer for a little while but quit that and pursued artwork instead. I also worked in the medical field for many years. I stay at home now. I have no children, just furry ones. biggrin.gif My husband owns a business here in town and we have been married for over 20 years. Funny thing is is that he is the one who got me started on this Celtic journey when he first brought home the Riverdance DVD. I was mesmorized by it and LOVED the music so much I bought the CD soundtrack. It went from there and I went crazy! Plus, a friend of mine went to Ireland to visit and told me all about her trip and that had an impact on me as well. Now I love bands like U2, Evanescense, The Corrs and other rock/pop groups, but I listen mostly to Celtic music. I listen to Highlander radio whenever I can. do you listen to it? I have bought a lot of Celtic CDs as result of the radio station here.

How did you find this site, btw? I worked at Sears too! ohmy.gif But in retail, not doing what you did! Wow! I bet that was really cool.

Do you have Highland games where you live? I know you said you can't attend any right now, but just wondering if you had them in your state. Were you born and raised in Nebraska? I hear that is beautiful and Native American territory too. I think they filmed "Dances with Wolves" there.

Well, I know how it feels to want adult company as all my friends and family live an hour or more from me, so I discovered the internet! LOL You will make many friends here. This is a great site and we all have a lot of common.

Oh, if you are wondering what Rindy and I are talking about certain men calling us to bed. It has to do with a couple of books we are reading! her leading character is named Jamie Fraser and mine is Nathaniel Bonner! Both Scotsmen, of course! Their historical romance books, specifically about Scotsmen. rolleyes.gif biggrin.gif Don't know if you are into that sort of thing.........I NEVER thought I would be...........but we talk about these books in The Book Stop forum, if you're interested!

Chat with you later! wink.gif

Feasgar math Ròs!!

I have always loved all things Celtic!! I have developed more of an obsession with it now though, on account of my genealogy work!! I listen to Highlander Radio every time I get online!! It doesn't matter what I'm doing while I'm on there I listen to it!! I listen so often that my daughter searched around the stations on her stereo until she found a station that was playing celtic music!! I'm not really sure what it is yet but it plays lots of similar music!! I just ordered a bunch of celtic CD's from BMG this week, all because of Highlander Radio and this forum!! I already have a few of the Corrs and Enya CD's, so these are artists I haven't heard!!

I don't work right now, and haven't for about 3 years! Now it's hard to find a job!! I enjoy staying home with my kids but that won't last for long. My daughter's already in school and my son with be starting in a few years.

I found this site because I was searching online for the sheet music to Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath for my fiddle. This site was on the search list and I thought I'd just check it out!! I'm really glad I did!! Yes, it was a blast working for the studio!! I basically managed it after the other manager quit. Then they decided they needed to hire and actual manager and didn't even give me the time of day!! So I left!! But I do miss it!!

I've never really checked to see if they have Highlander games here!! I'll have to do that! Yes, I was born and raised here. I've never lived in any other state! Although I am seriously thinking of changing that!! I don't think it's overly beautiful!! The sandhills a pretty cool though! But the rest of the state is just cornfields!! Pretty boring! I believe they did film that here, or parts of it anyway. I don't really know!

Books are actually one of my great passions!! I will read anything I can get my hands on!! I love most romances!! I'm partial to Romantic Suspense!! A really good who dunit with some romance thrown in!! Historicals are also just as good! I love history!!(one of the few classes I passed when I tried college!!) I haven't read any lately though. I looked in on the thread about historical romances and might have to try a few of them!! I've gotten on an Elizabeth Lowell and J.D. Robb kick lately!!! I'll tell you, it certainly makes my dreams more enjoyable!!! biggrin.gif


I think we'll get along just fine!!! I have found so many interesting and wonderful people here I don't know how I got along without you all!!

I'll catch up with you later! Have a good night!!!

So sorry I've not been around but have been searching for that elusive property. CR, we really like the Mescal area, close to Tucson yet far enough out. I know it's out there but I don't think agents make enough on bare land so they don't seem to enthusiastic about assisting.

If it's allergies, I have a couple suggestions: Buy local bee pollen & take that; it work rather like a "hair of the dog" & usually works pretty well. Also, allergy Zicam works pretty good. For colds, try the Zicam for colds at the very first sign; it helps lessen the severity. (I'm not blowing smoke here since I'm a hereditary herbalist.)

Hey jpm! Congrats on the 200! I personally don't have anything against the snowbirds, only lousy drivers! Being on the interstate a lot, I know which states have all the fruits, to be sure. The mother of a guy I went to school with (from grammar to high!!) spends her winters in Casa Grande. CR: A neighbor of my aunt's in CA just moved to CG!! I can hear "It's a Small World" right now!

Rindy: I've begun the gardening at my dad's, although it is currently more like ridding the dog run of his tumbleweed forest. The dianthus I began as seed over the past couple years is blooming & taking like crazy, filling the air with the fragrance of carnations. Lots to do to prepare the yards before selling.

No problem with DST here... AZ stays the same! Just gets confusing for the tv & calling family in other time zones....

Take care all & have a great week!

How was everyone's day today?

My day was pretty good.

I took the CTA Red Line train downtown to look for employment opportunities. I went to two of the big department stores. The Red Line is one of the two subway lines downtown, and one of the stops lets you off basically in the basement of Marshall Field's. I was going to apply there, but their computer application that handles the employment applications was on the blink. I waited for about half an hour before my patience ran out and I left. I had much better success at Carsons, where I filled out the application and they asked me a few questions.

Then, I went over to City Hall to check the job postings for the City of Chicago and Cook County (half of the building is City Hall; the other half is the County Building). They didn't have anything I was qualified for. The postings were mostly nurses for the hospitals owned by the county, engineers for the county highway department, and companions for seniors from the Chicago Department on Aging.

I then went to go get lunch from the McDonalds I normally go to when I'm down there, only to find out they moved one block south on me ohmy.gif ! How dare they biggrin.gif ! Anyway, I went to the new location and got lunch. It was such a nice day out this afternoon, I got my order to go and ate it outside in the courtyard of the building next door. I wasn't the only one, either biggrin.gif . Then I got back on the train and headed home.

Hi everyone. I feel like I've been away forever. Two weeks ago I was busy getting ready for the Tunnel Hill Celtic Festival. We went camping and about froze. Can you believe we had snow? It didn't stick though. We had a lot of rain and strong winds. On Saturday morning the fields were so water logged and it was so very cold with winds that got up to 40 mph that our leader made a decision not to set up. They had brought me a birthday cake (belated) so we went to the KOA game room and had hot tea and cake. Then for lunch we went to a bar-b-que place called Sticky Fingers in chattanooga, TN. There was snow flurries there too. But on Sunday my hunny and I went to the festival and really enjoyed the music and demos. Sunday was beautiful. The sky was clear and there was a gentle breeze. I came away from the day with a tan (doesn't take much thanks to my Cherokee ancestors.)
I had to work all the following week and get my taxes done and filed. I'm also trying to get a garden spot ready. I have to write an article for the Donnachaidh newsletter and get ready for the Culloden Games at the end of the month. This will be my first time hosting a tent by myself. I hope it goes well. On May 13th is an AGM for the Scottish Country Dancers along with a social Then later that month my family and I will be heading for Gatlinburg Tn for the games there, 2 weeks after that is the Blairsville Game. and a family reunion in the same week. I know I've missed something. wacko.gif So if you don't hear from me much in the next few week that is the reason, my calendar is full. But I'll try to check in with everyone and let everyone know how the games go. I hate it when I don't get to check in. I really enjoy talking to every one, and reading about what everyone is doing. I'm going to put the order in for my hunnys kilt this next week. He is so great even with his brothers teasing he said he would wear it for me (his family is Latino)

Hi Sonee, I see you have a Clan Lindsey Avatar so I have to ask--Got COW?? In case you don't know, seems like there has been some rivalry between Clan Lindsey and Clan Donnachaidh. You see we Donnachaidhs love the Lindsey cows. They have the best beef and knowing that the Donnachaidhs would "borrow" a cow or two. When ever we go to a game we make sure to stop by the Lindseys and sign the guest book and ask Got COW? and give a little moo.
