Well it's windy anyway

Welcome to the nuthouse Tigress!

Jessica - I second Den's yuck!!! And good luck with the party...

Ellis - Thank you! I wish it was a new me in some ways. At least a smaller one. And I am still keeping you and your dad in my thoughts.

Den - Thanks! Any news on DH's new job yet??? Still keeping my fingers (but not my boobs) crossed.

Mauvais - step away from the ice cream. You are doing so well on WW that I think you should send it to my house for safe keeping.

And hello to the rest of the Alternachicks!!!

Thank you sweet Squeak. You are a wonderful "little sister".

It's cooler this morning! I've got my jeans on and my favourite old black top.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Whine.... we were 76F at 6 this morning. I am scared to check it out now.

I'm off to do the last noontime Bingo of the summer. At least the hall is air conditioned and is never smokey for the first Bingo of the day.

If our AC is not fixed by suppertime tonight, I will find that AC guy and have his balls for bookends - bronzed! Does anybody but me remember those bronzed baby shoes that were usually made into bookends holding Readers Disgusts?

Will check in later.

Congrats, Squeak!

It's MUCH nicer here today...can actually breathe outside. Breathing is a good thing.

Thank you all for your support and the warm welcome back. Now, I just need to find out where that comfy chair went...

Welcome Tigress!

I'll send you all some of my weather. It was 89 degrees yesterday, but last night it got down to 49. Gotta love the high desert!

I started painting my bedroom last night - pale sagey, mossy green. Doesn't painting count as exercise????

Nuthin' else exciting going on - can't wait to get home and finish my room so I don't have to sleep in paint fumes again (made for some interesting dreams though! )

Happy weekend everyone!!!

Terri

Hi Punkinseed - nice to see you again. Mauvais took your comfy armchair and has reupholstered it in leopardskin. I love sagey green!

Oh verrrry funny Ruthxxx

Tee hee!

Good one Ruth!!!

Squeak-DH went to the board meeting for approval and to meet the bosses. The person taking down the minutes announced, "We do not have a quorum, see you next month!" As DH and the other new hire sat there with their mouths open, the provost rushed over and said, "Don't worry." Then the president came over and met them and told them that there had been an executive meeting earlier in the day, and that their hire had been approved.
The secretary told DH a few days ago that she had ordered the name plate for his office door, and a current instructor asked DH if he wanted to share her office. (YES!! Very nice to offer!!) SO, basically he has the job, but I ain't celebrating until the contract is signed!!!! (To tell the truth we CAN'T do much celebrating until he gets the first paycheck anyway!!!)
Are you sorry you asked?

Go check out this web site...

Great site that promotes accepting our bodies and not buying into society's ridiculous beauty standards. You gotta love her t-shirt.

Neat site, Sojo. If you really love the t-shirt, you can order one!

I adore that t-shirt. would like to buy them for some of my clients...but, their parents might get annoyed with me. perfect for my young women with eating disorders...really empowering.
hi alternachicks...I missed you.
Love, soozie

I actually made this shirt for a friend of mine a couple of years ago. Used pink sparkly buble paint on a black t-shirt. It was very girly.

Just a quick fly by post.

Hi Alternachicks!!

Welcome back Soozie! (I'm am still working on your email - I swear)

Congrats Den's DH! and no I'm not sorry I asked.

Thanks Wildfire!

Ruthxxx - I hope you didn't have to hurt the A/C man...

Sojo - love the site and the shirt.

Ellis - and I love my "big sisters"

And hi to Mauvais (I think we could use some more leopard print chairs) , Terri, Jessica and the rest of you!


Just got home. Had a wnderful last 4 days, but need to unpack, and such...
