Got another of those e-mail warnings. This one was about the cell phones needing
to be on a no call list. It didn't work very well for our land line so haven't done it yet with the cell. Has anyone else got this e-mail warning?

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

All our phones are on the list; the cell phone block works better then the land line (no spam calls on our cells at all).

I haven't gotten the email alert; be careful the EMAIL itself is not a scam or a virus.

When I tried to pull up the 'do not call' link for you https://www.donotcall.gov/ it said

We are experiencing technical difficulties. Please visit us at a later time.
If you would like to register your telephone number on the National Do Not Call Registry or file a complaint, please call our toll-free number 1-888-382-1222 (TTY 1-866-290-4236).

Maybe that's why it doesn't work well
We still get a lot of land line calls these days because the law IS limited (see details)>>>Do Not Call List | FCC.gov
I check the caller ID and ignore calls that don't identify themselves and from obvious spammers.


We had a nice day...a relaxing start, went out for a light lunch (I skipped breakfast ), then we visited the 2 cemeteries (1 for our parents and 1 for our grandson).
Hubby wanted to wait until his Mom's plot was settled and the stone was etched with her death info.
At that cemetery there is no graveside service after the funeral Mass; they have a service at the cemetery chapel for the final prayers.

It is HOT here today....we will wait until the sun sets a bit before going for our walk.

Have a lovely night and weekend everyone ~ be blessed

It's jean and sweatshirt weather here today; the wind doesn't help.

I am ready for that ~ I love cool, crisp, bug-less FALL weather

I am learning to not answer th phone...if it is a friend, they will leave a message...

I am sitting inside, using the AC for a change...just feel tired.

Jean and sweatshirt weather is my favorite....

I hate to hear the phone ring these days...it is usually to tell us of a death , or the kids calling with their 'drama'

We have all the fans going and windows open; outside it is hot, but the house feels nice!

The nights have been cool enough we don't need to run the AC ...or a fan for that matter
I love it because I can hear the coyotes calling, owls hooting, occasional duck quacking on the lake, tree frogs chirping, and crickets singing
....you know ME and my love for the wildlife here

I am always sad when cold nights make us close up the house at night....no night sounds to relish

I'm okay with it, but I prefer shirt sleeves, capris and the sunscreen. I agree about the bugs, however. If it weren't windy and overcast, today would be fine. It's 60s, but feels 50s.

Between the ticks, and skeeters with EEE and the West Nile Virus (we are on HIGH alert)....it limits your outdoor activities.
I can't wait for the first hard frost

 

[frogalone]

The mosquitoes have been really bad here, too, and the West Nile Virus threat has brought me inside, even BEFORE dusk. For some reason, though, bugs don't like me as much as they used to.

 

[Norah63]

Thanks Gail for that info. When I went to that gov. site it just flipped and flipped the page.
So I got off quick, did not want a virus.
Guess will maybe try later, can hope for better results.

Yeah same here on damp days they are out; I am surrounded by woods and wetlands :o
that's a GOOD thing they don't find you to be tasty

You're welcome ~ God bless

We did get out for a nice walk; the sun is getting lower now, and with the breeze off the lake it was cooler and more comfortable

 

[angelwind]

Good morning eagles...We are off to a pleasant day here...I cooked a nice breakfast, and cleaned up the kitchen...
not much planned it will be too hot to be outside...so I will hibernate again.

 

[nChrist]

It's been an absolutely gorgeous day here - sunny and upper 70s.

Sister Gail, thanks for the link to the national do not call registry. We signed up for it before, but it expired. The link worked perfectly for me. This time, it's supposed to be a permanent do not call list.

 

[angelwind]

It is hot, but not as hot as predicted...hoooray!!!!!!!

Fall officially begins next week.

You're welcome Tom

We had a lovely day....
The weather is beautiful and we got a walk in after lunch.
This evening we had a blessed time at Church, and a lovely dinner out after.
The Lord is so good

[angelwind]

I am getting ready to go to church...again...wonder of wonders...we plan to meet and eat lunch out today, hubby and I. Then I think we will be watching football...lol.

Found this photo of a very happy dog enjoying the water at Big Bear Lake...we were there a couple summers ago.
