Subj : Golden Corral To : Dave Drum From : Ruth Haffly Date : Sat Sep 20 2025 22:46:38 Hi Dave, RH> Something, somewhere along the line, I've lost a day or two of messages RH> about every other week. Other than that, things are going well. SD> You and Stephen are welcome to create accounts on my BBS for checking SD> if you want. My Fido feed is directly from the Z1C. I can toggle SD> accounts permanent so you don't have to log on all the time to keep SD> the account active. RH> Might have to consider it; this has happened for several weeks now. No RH> Fido the beginning of the week but usually restored by Wednesday or so. DD> I wondered what had happened to you. Is the board you guys point off DD> of having problems? Or is it your interweb hook up? I was using Sursum DD> Corda as one of my "regular" BBSes but it started being up and down DD> like a (oops, this is still a family echo, Dave). Anyway, I've DD> replaced them after a packet of uploads got lost in the shuffle. I'm not sure what the cause is and which system to blame. We may have to contact Marc Lewis and let him know of my problems but that will wait for another day, when I'm a bit more awake. RH> Not a big deal this week as we're working on pulling everything in RH> place to celebrate our 50th anniversary on Saturday. All sorts of odds RH> and ends to do like figuring amounts of food/drink and ordering/buying, RH> number of tables to set up in the Legion building main room, buying RH> decorations, and so on. Couldn't get a reservation for dinner afterward RH> at the restaurant we wanted so will be trying another steakhouse in the RH> Raleigh area. DD> I can't get my mind wrapped around doing anything for 50 years. At the DD> same time I just realised liast week that I've been at my current job DD> for 20 years. As with anything else, just taking things one day at a time adds up faster than you realise. Steve's parents celebrated their 25th anniversary 6 months before we got married; my folks hit their 25 about 6 weeks before our wedding. My parents made it to 62 before Mom passed; my in laws celebrated 72 before we lost Dad. DD> I don't suppose your chilren and their children) will make it for the DD> feswtivities. Older daughter, her husband and their 2 teen age daughters flew in Friday night, leaving early Sunday morning to go back to Utah. So good to see them, found out our SIL's parent's 50th will be in about 6 months so we'll see them then also. We had a lot of food left over so made a good sized donation to the local fire department, sent a lot home with one family so mom didn't have to cook, more went with one of Steve's radio buddies and his wife who were a big help in setting up and tearing down. We still brought some home. (G) --- Catch you later, Ruth rchaffly{at}earthlink{dot}net FIDO 1:396/45.28 .... OH NO! Not ANOTHER learning experience! --- PPoint 3.01 * Origin: Sew!
