Now I really did it :((

[MamaBee]

+ a billion. I am happy you found a great Dr. who could provide you a diagnosis and treatment for what can only be an uncommon malady. Get better!!!!!

How is the house stuff going? Have you sold anything?

Thank you @canuk-gal .. Yes..NMO is so rare doctors have never heard of it. I have to carry a card around that tells ER physicians how to treat me if I get an attack. It specifically tells them the dosage..and what to try if the first treatment doesn’t work. It says if they don’t act quickly I could lose my sight or become paralyzed. Fortunately the hospital that is educated about NMO is 17 minutes from my house. It’s basically just worrisome if I’m not in the area. Fun stuff..

We still have the other houses because we were trying to plow through my medical stuff. We’re going to head over to Maryland next week to try to get some things accomplished. I will pretty much point to stuff..

Hi NIRDI’s!

@Austina I am so sorry to hear about your friend Karen. Big hugs to all of you. Have a nice visit with your friends from England, that had quite a time getting here. Glad you get such good service from Lexus.

@canuk-gal I am so glad the wasp didn’t sting you. It’s cooling off here too, our smoke varies from light to stay the heck inside. Some snow should help put fires out. Marty is getting cranky on building the observatory. No one gets back to him on bids, if they do it’s ridiculous. He rented a trencher today and will lay his electrical wire in it. But no one ever showed up to mark utility lines, he has to submit another request to get his electric then inspected that takes 5 days. No one has a phone number anymore, you have to submit things online and you never know if they got it.

@missy I hope your asthma has a mild autumn, mine sure kicks up from weeds in the fall. Yes, snickerdoodles are popular cookies. They’ll be easy dessert for their reception. I like the vote for Milton sign. That’s cute. Your assorted ice cream looks delicious. I picked up 6 pints of assorted flavors the other day since they were on sale. I started with the peanut butter cup first. I hope your sister is feeling better. That’s too bad about the rim breaking on the bike 20 miles from home. What a day for sure. Then to get stranded behind an accident and not make your appointment. Ugh.Good deal you got in the next day and I hope they went well. I like your new hairdo. I’ve been growing my hair longer.

@MamaBee, I am so sorry to hear about all your medical issues. Dealing with pain is so draining. I hope the new medicine helps. Big hugs to you. Sending you mega dust.

My sister-in-law was here for a few days. She got here this weekend and took off yesterday. I’ve been working and reading. Not much else though.

I did get our my “real” camera and got this smoky sunrise today.

Take care.
Marcy

Good morning and happy Caturday Saturday!
I am so sleepy! Greg got in not too late but I could not fall asleep.
I hope you all slept better.


@marcy wow gorgeous photo
So happy you enjoyed a wonderful visit with your SIL

@canuk-gal hope you are having a wonderful weekend

@MamaBee girl, you are so strong and brave and you rock. In all ways. Sending love and healing wishes every single day

@Slickk have a terrific weekend. The weeks are once again speeding by but one day at a time

@Austina I hope you are managing to have a good visit with your friends

@springerspaniel happy weekend

Hello everyone else. Hope all is well


It was a good day yesterday. Gorgeous cycling weather. Cycled 65 niles wohoo. Got my med delivered and found out the UPS driver knows me by name because he saw us cycling and stopped and told me he delivered my med on the porch. LOL. We were five minutes from home as I was tracking it on the map and we were headed home to get it but it was nice he knew me (more likely knew our tandem lol) and let me know. Put the med in the fridge and went out back cycling. Then got home and Greg gave me an injection in my stomach and then he got ready for the bachelor parry. Greg had a great time. It was at the NY Yacht Club. And the ferry got him there and back easy peasy. Purrrfect.





Today I hope it is a cycling day as I have not yet checked te weather. Got up late. Fed the feral cats and now getting ready to give Tommy his med.

Leaving you with our ice cream of the day yesterday. Enjoy a lovely Caturday Saturday lovely ladies XOXO




And in honor of Caturday Saturday sweet Shasta from yesterday...she is a real beauty. Striking




Close uo of her where you can see her face...she is gorgeous



Happy Caturday Saturday!!!!

Thank you @marcy..
That’s so frustrating that people aren’t getting back to Marty. I don’t think anyone answers the phone anymore. I find that across the board. Everything has to be done online. If you have a question about anything that’s on a form..forget about reaching anyone..It’s maddening.

 

[MamaBee]

Hello lovelies

Honestly, this lab just goes from bad to worse @missy, they never seem to get anything right. Looks like you had the perfect day yesterday, great photos.

Soooo, I did a thing today, I decided I wanted some large studs so I asked for help on the MMD thread. I’m not going to buy anymore expensive jewellery, so these will be perfect.

I’ll have them set locally by the guy who did my bracelet.

Off to Trivia later, hope you’re all doing well and staying safe.

How exciting you want large studs! What size do you want for each ear? I got myself small MMD studs…1.50 ctw…75 each..for when I want to go low key. I’m very happy with them. The people on the MMD board helped me find a pair.I had them set by David Klass. The settings cost more than the diamonds! The diamonds are crystal clear and perfect. I should have gone with a standard setting because although the setting is pretty..you can’t see it once its on my ear. My natural diamond studs are 1.51 and 1.53. They’re a good size for me..No one wears anything big here. My mom is gone now..but she always wanted honkers..I bought her a pair of CZs. They must have been three carats each. She wore them to bingo at the senior center.

Good morning sweet @missy I just read your post while I was sitting with S. When i saw Greg’s photo I told S Greg is a cutie! He laughed! I showed him the photo..Greg is a snappy dresser!
Wow! I can’t believe you guys cycled 65 miles!
That’s like olympian level cycling in my opinion..
Again..Thank you for being my friend through good times and bad. Your texts while I was waiting for my first infusion..feeling like a sitting duck..made me smile when I didn’t feel like smiling.

 

[missy]

GM girls just a quick post and run as I have spent my time trying to correct falsehoods in the HRT thread. Lesson of the day. Do not be ruled by fear. Let knowledge give you strength and power and allow you to advocate for your good health and well being.

OK

@MamaBee I love CM...have fun!!!!! We have not been there for years and it is time for a visit. LOVE that bungalow too. Enjoy!!!!

And thank you for being my friend Love you XOXO

Hello everyone else @Slickk @canuk-gal @springerspaniel @mrs-b @marcy @Austina and everyone else. Enjoy a super Sunday lovely ladies

Some photos from the ferry taken by our friend the artist who went with Greg to the bachelor party








and finally our sweet treat during cycling yesterday



May your Sunday be sweet and special ((((Hugs))))

 

[MamaBee]

Good morning girls..We’re heading back to Va today from Cape May..We stayed four days. I wasn’t comfortable being so far away from home..four hours..Since we couldn’t go to England we thought we could do smaller trips for David. We will stop in Pa which is fifteen minutes out of the way. We need to get fall and winter clothes.
I hope everyone enjoys their Sunday..xo

 

[marcy]

Hi NIRDI’s!

@missy great shot of Greg and company at the bachelor’s party. Nice Greg and his friend took the ferry there an back. Gorgeous pictures of the city. Greg looks sharp. Glad you got more miles in as well.

@MamaBee you are so right places just want you to contact them online and no one gets back to you. See below what happened because of that. I hope you are doing better and the trip to VA went well.

We had a hectic weekend. Marty rented a trencher to trench out a 24” deep trench for electrical lines to his observatory location. That 811 call before you did NEVER got back to him. Most of it is away from the house, but the power box we had put on the outside of the house to run lines to the observatory is right over the sewer line to the septic tank. So Marty dug that part by hand and had trouble so a friend suggested use your power washer. It was a mess, but got it down to 24 inches. Marty decides since he doesn’t see the sewer pipe, it’s safe and used the trencher to even it out. He broke the sewer pipe right in half. I called the warranty guy on our house and said I know this isn’t your problem but who can we contact. He gave me their excavator and I called him. They guy came out right away and said it was an easy fix but all their equipment was on other jobs. He said he’d come fix it today..

So we booked a hotel room and ventured off for the night. There was a crowd by our room making noise until after midnight. We needed up with a queen bed with Marty’s 6’4” takes up about 3/4 of that. And beds are so tall anymore with high mattresses, I could barely get in the bed. It was too hard for my achy body. But hey, it had working plumbing. The guy showed up this morning and got the sewer pipe patched. He wasn’t even going to charge us, but we gave him a nice tip for helping us.

After plumbing was working again, I got laundry done and finished a book.

Take care.
Marcy

 

[missy]

Good morning girls! Happy marvelous Monday!

@marcy wow, what a hectic day indeed. Ugh sorry about the sewer line but relieved you got someone to come relatively quickly. Sorry about the unpleasant uncomfortable hotel stay. So glad the plumbing is working again and you got laundry done and finished reading your book. I could picture being squashed in the queen bed lol and glad that is over. Thanks for the kind words about Greg. \

@MamaBee I love Cape May and we want to head down there again soon maybe. It's not that far from us (a few hours) and it is such a quaint town. Like another world. It's good you can stop in PA to get the clothes you need for the upcoming cooler weather. I cannot believe winter is on the way. But the good news is spring will be here soon enough lol

@Slickk happy Monday..hope you have a great week

@canuk-gal hope you enjoyed a lovely weekend

Hello everyone else. We had another beautiful cycling day yesterday and reached 6500 miles on the bike. Woohoo. Today one last day before the rain comes and we have a busy few weeks ahead. Glad we had wonderful weather for the past four weeks or so and can't complain. Enjoy a marvelous Monday lovely ladies XOXO

 

[canuk-gal]

HI:

NIRDI shout out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely stunning weather today. 21C and no wind and not a cloud in the big blue sky. I have some pelvic pain and think it might be related to cycling and my seat. Road to the bike shop--but it was closed (hours not updated on website) No matter it is close to us and we had a SB yummy cold brew and a bite, then rode on. We'll go tomorrow and see if an adjustment is possible. If not I might have to stop cycling for this year. It's OK, we have exercise equipment here and I renewed my gym membership and I can always walk instead of riding. Also, I've been wearing my small but mighty Tiffany soli with my large and in charge Asscher eternity ring. Been a while, but I love the look--will carry on!

@missy glad Greg enjoyed the party. And yes Shasta is one gorgeous cat! What happened to your frame--did Greg's repair do the trick?

@marcy what an ordeal. Glad the pipe got fixed quickly--but holy hanna.

@MamaBee stay on the mend! Hope you enjoyed your respite.

@Slickk hope your school year is looking promising.

cheers--Sharon

 

[marcy]

Hi NIRDI’s!

@missy woo hoo to 6500 miles. That is so amazing. Sorry the rain is coming, hopefully there’s some clear spots to get in some more miles. Mmm ice cream.

@canuk-gal I hope your pelvic pain improves, that can’t be pleasant. Glad you had such lovely weather today. Your Tiffany sol and and band sounds lovely. I’d love to see a picture.

I had a rough night. My BP pills are beta-blockers for a rapid heartbeat and I forgot to take them yesterday since we stayed in a hotel. About 4 a.m. I had a rapid heartbeat attack that scared the crap out of me. I finally got back to sleep and slept until 8. I didn’t figure out what triggered it until I got up, but took my pill right away and was better by noon. My heartbeat was at 101 when I took the pill. I’d hate to think what it was at 4 a.m. I’ll try not to do that again. It’s related to my thyroid issues.

The plumbing is still working. Sweet.

Here’s tonight’s almost Super Harvest Moon.

Take care,
Marcy

 

[missy]

GM girls! Happy terrific Tuesday!

@marcy wow!! LOVE that photo. Beautiful almost super harvest moon
Darn about your rapid heartbeat...that is very scary. I am so sorry your night was rough because of that but relieved once you took your meds all was good. Sending you many healing vibes and gentle hugs

@canuk-gal oh no to pelvic pain and I wouldn't be surprised if it was related to cycling. Right now my butt is very sore. From cycling. But I digress. Back to pelvic pain. I had that issue years ago and went though hundreds of seats only to figure out it was related to my lack of estradiol. Not saying that is your issue at all and for all I know you are on BHRT. But just sharing my experience in case it can be helpful to you

Thank you for asking about the bike fix. The rim was destroyed beyond repair so not fixable but Greg built an entirely new wheel that night when we finally got home (thanks to Nora!!!! last Monday) so there was no interruption in cycling for the next day. And he ordered super quality expensive rims from England that we are still waiting for...just cleared customs. So he is going to attempt to build an indestructible wheel. He thought that was what we had before...indestructible but nope. The biggest issue I think are our rough roads. Very rough and it beats up the bike. But thank goodness Greg is super handy. Otherwise no way could we ride this behemoth lol

@Slickk happy Tuesday sweet friend...hope your week is going well

@MamaBee hope your ride home went smoothly

@Austina hope all is well and you are enjoying your visit with your friends

Hello everyone else. Hope all is well. Another great cycling day yesterday and maybe one more day today..not sure as I have not checked weather yet. But tomorrow we drive to Great Neck with Oliver and Gracie for dental work (rain is predicted the rest of the week also which makes riding a moot point) and well just hope it won't be a tough drive. Because it's a long drive under the best of circumstances

Tonight I have the weekly zoom with my dear girlfriends and looking forward to it.
Have a great day lovely ladies. Whatever you do. Make it fun

 

[canuk-gal]

HI:

@missy I am keenly aware of hormones and pelvic pain--I try and remember to use Vagifem weekly. And the bike fella said "oh that saddle is at a ridiculous angle" and he adjusted it. Since the season is almost over--I'll get my a** measured next year and investigate new seats then!

cheers--Sharon

Oh emmm geee. Yes angle is everything!!! Greg just adjusted my seat for the thousandth time this morning and finally I think I’m good. Lol sometimes it is not easy being a woman who loves cycling. But then again I definitely don’t think men have a better situation on the bike

Hope that bike fix does the trick and sweet relief will be yours !!!

 

[MamaBee]

Hey girls. I have Covid..Be back soon…ugh

 

[missy]

GM girls! Happy terrific Thursday!

@MamaBee OH NO!!!! I am very sorry and wish you a speedy and easy recovery. Praying it is mild and you are feeling all better soon. I am so sorry you are dealing with this on top of everything else. Sending you bucketloads of healing wishes and lots of love

@canuk-gal hope all is well and you are pain free

@marcy hope the week is going smoothly for you and you are not working too hard

@Slickk woohoo it's almost friYAY and then the weekend..it goes so fast but the good news is the weekends come fast too

Hey everyone else. So it was a really busy day yesterday. We went to Great Neck with Oliver and Gracie and my sister did dental work on both plus vaccines plus an allergy and antibiotic shot for Gracie as she has some strange skin condition. If this does not help her we need to do a biopsy but we are hoping it is more allergic than immune mediated but we just do not know yet. Trying to avoid a biopsy if possible because it would be traumatic for Gracie. Ugh. It was a long day but a fruitful one. And stressful for the cats and me because I was worrying about them the entire day. We had to make them fast overnight the other day because they were undergoing sedation and then I was concerned about the sedation and then Gracie was bleeding because Debbie had to remove two teeth. She has very bad genetics teeth wise so she needs dental work at least once a year if not more often. Oliver's teeth were not bad so he didn't have any removed but just a scaling and cleaning...but he is overweight and Debbie advised us to not let him gain more. Very challenging in a multi cat household because Tommy and Bobby just graze and if we do not leave food out they do not eat enough. I am very grateful to my sister because she really is the only vet I trust 100%.

This is Gracie's skin condition...on her nose but some hair loss in other places. It's chronic and she's had it for many many many months. We thought it was from play fighting with Oliver or we would have had her evaluated sooner. Poor baby



Today we are running much needed errands. Have not been to TJ or Costco for weeks and I keep sending Greg to WF for produce etc. because every day we have been cycling so today we are running much needed errands. Plus we have rain in the forecast for a few days so we will get much accomplished (when not cycling lol)

Leaving you with a few photos from the past two days. Enjoy a terrific Thursday lovely ladies XOXO

From our cycling Tuesday. So delish.




And my newest addition which arrived yesterday...this is my natural hair color

Spoiler

Enjoy a great day girls. Be well.

 

[Sunrises Sunsets]

Hey girls. I have Covid..Be back soon…ugh

Oh, bummer. You need a streak of good health luck after this episode ends. I've been following your medical tracks as you go and want to encourage you to keep up your morale the way you have through the previous trials and diagnosis. You're a strong woman and I wish you the very best.

 

[springerspaniel]

Hi NIRDIs. I'm sorry I've not been very active on the Forum, but since I left my clinical job to do a research fellowship (many thanks to @mrs-b for her encouragement at a crucial time), lots of things have happened. I now have a Federal grant and an institutional grant to study depression in care partners of people living with dementia. I never thought this would happen, as I believed I was not intellectually able to do research, only clinical work, so this is a big deal for me, especially at my age. Of course, as soon as I got these grants, my aging parents deteriorated rapidly and I am now trying to figure out how to get the projects done while taking care of them. My dad has metastatic cancer and my mother has some form of dementia that he has been covering for for many years.

The next step for me is to advocate for myself to have a clinical research position at my workplace. I have proposed something that would allow me to focus on the research, with a well-circumscribed clinical role that should not "bleed" into my other time (which has been my downfall in the past!) I am really fortunate that I do not have to apply de novo for a position. I will most likely not have a full time equivalent job at this point, but that does not matter as much as my completing the funded projects (and getting full benefits again.) Some of my colleagues retired around my age and I can understand why, but I am determined to do a nice piece of work in this field before I retire. I may even apply for future grants if all goes well.

Anyway, if you got this far, thank you for listening! I continue to derive strength from following all of your adventures, triumphs, and heartaches on this Forum, even if I do not say much at times. You are all such wonderfully supportive people and I thank you so much.

May you continue to gain much satisfaction and joy from your professional and personal life
Sending you so many well wishes and gentle hugs. And wishing for the best for your parents. Life is challenging to say the least. Big hugs

 

[marcy]

Hi NIRDI’s!

@missy yes, those rapid heartbeat attacks aren’t pleasant. After I lost a lot of weight and got the beta-blockers, they are only a bad memory and an occasional “here I am” event. I didn’t sleep well the next night either. Marty updated his IOS on his phone and it turned off his do not disturb so some stupid teams chat for work starting dinging at 4:30 and woke me up. I’ve been sleeping good since then though. I hope the replacement rim shows up sooner than later. Of course, Greg is handy and clever so came up with one in the meantime. Fall weather is coming, I see we have a low in the 30’s in our forecast. Noooooooo, Your poor kitties and their dental procedures. I hope they are doing okay.

@canuk-gal I hope your pelvic pain is better. Good idea to wait until next season for a new seat and I hope the adjustment works fine for you.

@MamaBee I hope you feel better soon. Keeping you in my thoughts.

Hi sunrise sunsets.

@springerspaniel good luck with your reasearch and it’s so heartbreaking dealing with something like that. Big hugs to you and your parents. It’s so hard.

Seems like I’ve been busy all week. I worked a lot for being retired and then have been reading. I even painted my fingernails tonight. I don’t think I’ve done that since we moved here, which was two months ago now.

We did get to see the partial lunar eclipse the other night. I was also on a live stream for work for over an hour that night, but once I was in the waiting room, I went out and enjoyed the view myself.

Here’s Marty’s shot of the partial lunar eclipse.

Take care.
Marcy

 

[missy]

Good morning lovely ladies! Happy friYAY!

@marcy wow another amazing photo. Gorgeous partial lunar eclipse. The rims from Europe showed up Wednesday and now Greg has tom figure out the spoke sizes to order. It's very involved but he is super pleased with the new rims. Very high quality and he bought four as that was all they had left in their inventory. I hope they get more in because with all the cycling we do we need to be prepared lol. I am sorry to hear your sleep has been challenged recently but glad you are back on schedule. 430AM isn't that early for me lol. You sure do work a lot for being retired but all that matters is you enjoy it and find it rewarding. Win win. Glad you are taking time to enjoy smelling the proverbial roses. That is important.

@MamaBee so sorry about for Shatzie and I hope his fever went down by now. Sending him lots of healing vibes and you too. May the rest of your recovery go smoothly and uneventfully.

@Slickk woohoo almost weekend...hope the week went/is going well and you are looking forward to a lovely weekend


@canuk-gal how are you feeling? I hope your pelvic pain is all gone. We have not cycled for two days but my butt still hurts lol. I guess after 6500 miles this season it deserves too.

@springerspaniel hope you have a terrific friYAY and weekend


Hello everyone else. Hope all is well. We accomplished so much yesterday. We realized it wasn't going to rain but we decided not to go cycling because we really had a lot to do. We went grocery shopping and I also got bangs cut into a few of my pieces and am pleased. Today is a cycling day so yay. Windy but supposedly nice so we shall see. Whatever you do on this beautiful FriYAY enjoy. And be well. XOXO


Sorry I have no exciting photos today but will leave you with my newly created bangs. Or fringe as some might say. I used to wear bangs when I was younger 20s and 30s and I missed them. Now I can go back and forth between having them and not having them
May your FriYAY be filled with yay and lots of fun

Smiling


Not smiling




Big difference right?

HI:

NIRDI shout out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gloomsville chilly rainy weather. My feet got wet walking through the parking lot getting take out! It has stopped now, but wow we got a dump. Took some lunch to my DS who is working remotely today. DH had a molar extracted and is vegging out.
My pain is somewhat improved but not completely. I'll continue to monitor it and follow up with GP PRN. I am sitting on a hot water bottle as I write. LOL. I worked 1.5 days this week and it was good. I miss a paycheque!!!!!!!!!!!!

@marcy glad your plumbing is working. But NO to palps!!! Take care!! Loved your photo.
@missy your hair is awesome! Hope the kittah's are on the mend. Glad the rims are suitable!!
@MamaBee hope you and yours are getting better. Crummy tho...

Cheers--Sharon

 

[missy]

GM girls and happy Caturday Saturday!!!

@canuk-gal thank you! I am glad your pain is improving and hope it is gone 100% very soon. As for Greg building a new wheel with the new rim we are just waiting for the spokes to arrive which should be soon. I will keep you posted. Have a great weekend and happy cycling or whatever it is you decide to enjoy

@diamondseeker2006 I hope you had a wonderful birthday and wishing you good health, happiness, peace and joy in this coming year

@Slickk woohoo happy weekend...it's chilly outside this AM but supposed to warm up. Yesterday I was melting it was warm

Hello everyone else. Hope all is well. We cycled yesterday and it was warmer than I expected. Our ice cream was melting immediately so I had to eat it fast lol. But that's usually how I eat ice cream



In honor of Caturday Saturday a photo of Fresca and Pepsi...they are so sweet. This was when we got back from cycling yesterday afternoon and I refreshed the food. This AM was difficult as after I put all the wet food and treats out the momma raccoon appeared and it looked like she wanted to fight the cats. So I had to step in and chase her away. Which I loathe to do but the feral cats come first and I will do what I need to in order to protect them. But I hate doing that because she is a living being too and she was hungry. We have the dry food feeder open so she definitely gets food from there. She is well fed. Chubby raccoon. Just hate how nature works and how animals can and do go hungry and we sadly cannot feed/save them all but I want to! OK off my soapbox. It's heartbreaking the way this world works



Onto happier things..Pepsi and Fresca's butts Adorable!!!



I love them so much





Enjoy a wonderful Caturday Saturday XOXO

Hi NIRDI’s!

@missy woo hoo to 6500 miles. That is so amazing. Sorry the rain is coming, hopefully there’s some clear spots to get in some more miles. Mmm ice cream.

@canuk-gal I hope your pelvic pain improves, that can’t be pleasant. Glad you had such lovely weather today. Your Tiffany sol and and band sounds lovely. I’d love to see a picture.

I had a rough night. My BP pills are beta-blockers for a rapid heartbeat and I forgot to take them yesterday since we stayed in a hotel. About 4 a.m. I had a rapid heartbeat attack that scared the crap out of me. I finally got back to sleep and slept until 8. I didn’t figure out what triggered it until I got up, but took my pill right away and was better by noon. My heartbeat was at 101 when I took the pill. I’d hate to think what it was at 4 a.m. I’ll try not to do that again. It’s related to my thyroid issues.

The plumbing is still working. Sweet.

Here’s tonight’s almost Super Harvest Moon.

Take care,
Marcy

GM girls and happy Sunday. Goodbye summer and happy autumn equinox!

@canuk-gal where did summer go? I am hoping for a lovely mild autumn for us both...fingers crossed and enjoy a wonderful Sunday

@Slickk happy Sunday..hope you enjoy a beautiful day

Hi @Sunrises Sunsets hope all is well and you are having a lovely weekend

Hello everyone else. Hope you are having fun no matter what is on your agenda today

We had a wonderful cycling day yesterday albeit warmer and very windy and today is cooler and maybe just as windy not sure yet.


We saw two car different shows yesterday. These are usually held on different days but not this year. So we rode by both and enjoyed the British car show (OMG MG!!) in OG and then enjoyed the American muscle car show in SB. Lots of fun and my favorite cars of all the car shows are the British cars

Sorry they are in a mixed up order (the American car show and the British car show) but hope you enjoy the photos




MG OMG



































And of course ice cream in between...yummmm



Have a sweet day lovely ladies XOXO
