I just signed up for a Twitter account so I could follow the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions. Who else should I follow?

PaulaO

Thank you for the reminder of what I have.

PaulaO

Good boy! I know you gave him major pats and carrots. I would have had a major breakdown.

PaulaO

Good luck. I bought 2 watercolor paintings at an antiques flea market and they are signed Diane. The seller knew the paintings came from Wisconsin, in the 1930s, but nothing else. I have never been able to find any more information.

PaulaO

I will look for a goofy pic of Bob this weekend. I'm not one for taking pictures though. I think there is one of him wearing a baseball cap.

PaulaO

AWWWW. My hearts gets happy when I read articles like this. Did he toss his cap after the ceremony????

I'm a librarian and have had trouble with a journal vendor's software. I call customer service, get connected eventually to a person who is not in the U.S. and doesn't have a full grasp of English. She basically tells me to look up the problem on Google. Customer service in most business is lacking ...

PaulaO

I'm going to my brother-in-law's sister's house. She's not the greatest cook, but she makes a mean rice pudding, so I will have rice pudding and a turkey wing. And dressing. And pumpkin pie. Then waddle home.

PaulaO

Totally stubbular

Can I get one delivered to me????

PaulaO

Maybe he needs an electric blanket!

PaulaO

I am so sad. I was in Paris last month for the first time. I fell I love with it, and the people were so kind. Prayers being said for everyone.

PaulaO

Shirrine, are your ponies German Riding Ponies?

PaulaO

I love pimento cheese and I'm in no. Illinois. Granted, I buy it at the grocery store and it's probably not the real thing, but I can eat a container of it with saltines in an evening....

PaulaO

Update. I just can't. I bailed on tonight's viewing. I just can't integrate horses into my life right now. It has nothing to do with the giant cluster F of last month's attempt to shareboard. I've spent 2 years rebuilding my life and have it where I want it and love it, and I just cannot retool agai...

PaulaO

I always thought my headaches were allergy related (I've had them for decades) and my treatment was Afrin, Benadryl, and sleep. Within the last year my physician said "what you are describing are migraines" and gave me sumatriptan. Sometimes I can deal with the migraines with OTC migraine ...

PaulaO

Palomino genetics??? I know one parent has to be a chestnut. Is there a magic formula that will guarantee a Palomino? P.S. Grace and Golden State would be perfectly welcome to move to Illinois with me. Just sayin'

PaulaO

What makes a chocolate Palomino chocolate? In Chi's picture, I just see a dark brown horse. P.S. Love the side eye your horse is giving in the above pic!

PaulaO

My dad was in the Army Air Corps during WWII, stationed in Australia, and flew bomber missions in the Pacific. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Silver Star. He didn't talk much about it, just said he was doing his job. He never took advantage of the VA medical system because he ...

PaulaO

So I'm meeting the Palomino and his mom Thursday after work. She has 3 horses, works, doesn't have time to ride all 3 but they are her babies. Sounds like a lot of crazy horse people! She just wants someone to pleasure ride them. Don't have to take lessons or go to shows. We shall see if the Palomin...

PaulaO

I'm probably having leftover meatloaf and a steamed artichoke.

PaulaO

Paula, you're CRAZY! I found an ad for a Palomino gelding to lease at a barn less than 10 miles from work. Unfortunately no pictures or name of barn. He's a 1999 model, hunter, whose owner has 3 horses and not enough time. I've sent an inquiring email. I can ride hunter, just stick my butt in the ai...

I went to Castle Leslie in Ireland twice in the 1980s. I doubt the same people are running it and I am considering going next year. It has different packages and I'm looking at the weenie rider (aka Getting Your Confidence Back) package. The reviews are outstanding http://www.castleleslie.com/equest...

PaulaO

I don't show, but snacks that are good for you would be string cheese, almonds, assorted fruit (apples, bananas), yogurt, cottage cheese, and plain roasted/grilled chicken or turkey breast. You can buy packages of those--no need to cook. You want higher protein and lower fat. Stay away from crummy c...

PaulaO

This sounds crazy, but every Palomino I've encountered has been very people oriented, just like orange kittehs. Are your Palominos pocket ponies??

PaulaO

I have always wanted what my friend calls a "yellow horse." I just love Palominos and I know I will be jealous of the soon to be posted pictures. But I refuse to have a Palomino whose name contains Golden or Honey.

PaulaO

I'll take Lagonda....

PaulaO

So you spin???? So interesting. Do you then knit what you have spun? I would have gone for the cashmere also. My favorite textile.

PaulaO

I'm so making that corn chowder this winter. And I don't even consider soup to be food.....although I do make an exception for Paula Deen's beef and onion soup.

PaulaO

That word would be fictionalized. I HATE editing on the iPad.

PaulaO

I'm currently reading "Circling the Sun" a fictionaled bio of Beryl Markham, aviatrix and thoroughbred trainer in Africa in the 20s-30s. Outstanding story and I can't wait to read more tonight. Author is Paula McLain.

PaulaO

Continued jingles and prayers for your dad.

PaulaO

Oh, she is pretty. How did she get along with the girls?

PaulaO

Let me know if you find a Lipp gelding. Hey, a girl can dream!

PaulaO

Tonight is gourmet meatloaf (jarlsberg cheese, bacon), baked taties, spinach soufflé. It's my brother in law's birthday and he always asks for meatloaf (shmeatloaf double beet loaf) for his birthday dinner.

PaulaO

Also, must have potato chips as a side. And pickles.

Off to buy Velveeta.....

PaulaO

Velveeta cheese, white bread. Toast the bread lightly in the toaster. Let it cool a bit, then slather one side of each piece of toast with butter. Heat skillet, layer bread with cheese (bacon and tomato optional), top with other piece of bread (buttered sides out) and skillet til it is brown to your...

One more thing to tell my 20 year old self: use contraception.

PaulaO

God bless her. She's never worn a helmet, so why start now? And I heard she will only ride sturdy ponies now--no prancing horses. I just love her.

PaulaO

Oh I'm so sorry about Ricky. His purr sounds wonderful. What color was Ricky?

PaulaO

I would tell my 20 year old self to continue studying agriculture and not get a degree in film studies.

I would also tell myself not to start smoking. I got more stuff to tell my 30"year old self!

PaulaO

I think you are overthinking this. If you don't have a washing machine at your housing, you can go to a laundrymat. So you really only need to pack for one week. Take a nice pair of dress slacks and a fancy sweater for any dress up occasions. Other than that, bring your work clothes, and one pair of...

PaulaO

Wish you could send me a piece. With the leftover buttermilk, make buttermilk dressing. Tons of recipes on the Intertubez.

PaulaO

How about a gift certificate to a local restaurant (not a generic gift card, but specifically to a restaurant she likes). Winter clothing (depends on what part of the country you are in), like Cuddleduds or a toasty headband.

Vegetarian chik'n nuggets and tater crowns. And a tootsie roll.

All you foodies may scream bloody murder at will.

The only thing wrong with that is the tootsie roll. Substitute a Reese peanut butter cup and it's a perfect meal. I love me some tater tots.

PaulaO

Middleburg VA is on the outskirts of Washington, D.C. and is horse country. There are several tack stores there and cool B&Bs. I haven't been there in decades but I doubt it has changed much. You would need a car to get there. D.C. itself has a ton of museums and historical places. You won't hav...

Old biddies crack me up. Pretty soon I'll be one of them.

PaulaO

My personal opinion is if I put something on a public forum/BB it is for the world to see. Is it my intellectual property? Yes. Is it significant and do I care? No.

PaulaO

I know nothing about mares and cycles and reproducing so my first thought was OTP's Haffie is going to get the cr@p kicked out of her by the other mares, simply because she is new and the mama will be protective. So don't worry about being a PITA--your mare's safety comes first and I cannot believe ...

If Sylvia blocks Paula, Paula cannot see anything Sylvia posts. I got that. But can Sylvia see anything Paula posts? Paula cannot block
Sylvia now because Sylvia's name is not popping up when Paula searches.

PaulaO

I am so so sorry.
