Ok, Momof5...how old is the princess A? Any pics of her? She sounds "all girly." My Jenny is like that and so are my nieces; Abby and Megan.
EZ- Gary's foot is at the healing stage where most people are after 2 years. It's not even been one year for him yet. It's probably all that woods walkin he does. His passion is hunting. who am I to stop him. Hey, "just pay your share of the bills and don't be in any more debt AND give me a small stash to play with while you are gone" is what I say. :D doitforme- Baby pic is cute as can be. I imagine I will be a g.mom within the next 2 years. Then...pics pics pics. Who is trans siberian? I must get to the music store too. Sounds great! I'm also a MS fan. Bowl it girl! Pixie- I haven't been sick with a cold for almost a year now. Praying I don't either. I am on a super vitamin and perhaps that will keep my imune system up. Although my nose does feel funny today. Do you live in Missouri or close to it? Hope you feel better. wilma- I'll bet you are freezing your tush off. Sorry...it's cold here too but probably not as bad. We got dumped on last night; 4 inches perhaps. I will snowblow when I get home today. I'm leaving work around 2:30 today...Yea! Thanks for the well wishing for the open house on Saturday. Michele- How did it go with Denise yesterday? Junior? :love: Christina- On the beach? Yeowzza! I love the beach, the shells, the water, the air, everything! Anyway...Chemistry? Better you than me! You are going to law school...I'm impressed. I'm too old to do any HUGE lifestyle changes...except food changes in January! Now...get to work! Beth- I make mostly crystal braclets (birthstone; mother's) and some stone and some real inexpensive stuff. I enjoy coming up with pieces specific for people. Were your parents driving in icky weather condition? I'm with you on the Happy Holiday vs. Christmas thing. People! wgirl- Yikes, cold in Canada I'm sure. When are you due for your baby? Oh my goodness, I just finished reading your post.... Heavenly Father, we are so joyous with the birth of this baby. We come to You with our request to hold this baby's precious kidneys in Your healing hands and take away each and every one of the cysts and to raise mom's amniotic fluid to hold baby safely until it's birth. We pray for this child and family Father in Your most precious name...and we ALL said Amen and Amen! Well, it's really slow today at work...only 5 of us showed up due to weather, kids being home and sickie people. I hope each and every one of you has a wonderful and blessed weekend. Sunny...WHERE ARE YOU? I like the Christmas siggys (hint hint). Hugs! |
MKAY~ If you go back to page 4 and my post on 12/7 there is a link to a site that has a house with Christmas lights flashing on and off to a Trans-Siberian song Wizards of Winter (I think)
|
EZ- I just went to the house of lights site. Whew! I'm glad I don't live on that street.

Gary: Oh yes, you have my boys pegged right - they are TROUBLE! They probably DO have Princess Abbi tied up somewhere and I don't know where! :rofl: Their looks don't even hold a torch to the trouble they get into! The sun reached us today and it is a BALMY 23 degrees! The Princess decided this morning she wanted to go outside and it was still around 9 degrees. She pouted for an hour when I wouldn't let her get frostbite! :rofl: She said the postcards are at school and that her teacher is going to do each part of the country separately. So when they get to the west coast, all the kids who received postcards from that area of the country will discuss their cards. This will be an ongoing project throughout the year. I called her teacher and said I wanted the postcards when they were finished with them. She said it would be in MAY! :dizzy:
MaryKay: Here is the Princess Abbi - and the hula skirt fits her perfectly! She is the pretty Indian Princess at her friend's birthday party! HELLO To Everyone Else!! Have a GREAT weekend!:snowglo: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...rlyesParty.jpg |
Hi all! :wave: I was with Denise most of the day, from 8:30 to about 4:00, my mom came by and stayed until a little after 6 pm. I almost didn't recognize her, she's not looking well. She said she was having a good day, but she was very restless and wouldn't just lay down. (Frustrating for me). She did feel well enough and safe with me there to get in the shower and she did lay down for about 1/2 an hour, we prayed the rosary and i read from the bible to her about anxiety and fear and comfort. She is very scattered and couldn't deal with it for long. My mom told me i had a ticket on my car when she came in, i was so bummed. I was parked 10' from a hydrant, suppose to be 15' i guess, that was a $62 mistake and i went home feeling really awful about Denise and the whole situation (with her daughter mostly, whom i met while there), and i totally smelled like cigarettes and had a headache.....what a whiner, huh! I had to get in the shower first thing when i got home. Junior came by and picked me up, took me to his house where he pampered me all night, he knew i had a bad day. Prayers for you all, especially for Karla. Oh my dear, my heart aches for you. :hug: :grouphug: I pray for God's loving comfort to come and coccoon you and your family and your dear sweet baby. |
p.s. thank you all for the prayers for Denise, they are much appreciated.

it's cold outside ! !
but it is so nice and cozy inside - sun is shining and looks so nice outside - we were out it in earlier when it was -10 but found it too cold.
Just about ready for Christmas. Have the grandchildren's gifts all bought - just need to wrap them - doing that tomorrow - and will mail them on Monday - sad that they live so far away but we do hear from them lots so that makes a bit easier. We are going to have our 'Christmas dinner' on the 24th and are having a family over to celebrate. They have a girl age 12. Then on Christmas day we are going out at 2 pm to a very very fancy restaurant for a complete Christmas day dinner for $10.50 per person - rather inexpensive. Usually we don't go to a restaurant on Christmas day but our best friends are leaving on the 26th for over 1 week and don't want to have so much left overs at their home - and because they have two special needs 'ladies' that live with them they don't go to others homes for dinner - long story and with us raising a special needs I truly understand where they are coming from. Because this same family is moving at the end of March to Edmonton Alberta - long ways from us - we are going to go out and have dinner with them - could be our last CHristmas day dinner with them for some time. But we will still have the left overse - yummy:hungry: I started my walking again on December 1. Am back to the beginning which is a bummer. When I originally started I could only do 1 lap but got it up to 21 laps = 3 miles within 45 minutes - which is good for me. When I restarted on December 1 I was back to 1 lap with lots of pain. But I have been out every day trying to increase it. The last few days I have been doing 4 laps and hubby 'informed' me that tomorrow I have to do '5' as I need to give it that little push. 7 laps = 1 mile. As of today I have walked 4 miles and tomorrow I should be able to make it up to 5 miles. Goal for December is 12 miles for sure but would like to have it at 15 miles. So am really going to have to 'push' in order to get it. Weight - I started recording it on Wednesday so won't be able to tell till then as to what the results are - but am looking for 6 - 8 pounds gone by December 31 - am using the motivation of 'See, sweetheart, I said I would do it and I did.' He just smiles as he knows when I put my mind to it I will. |
Karla: You and your baby are definitely in my prayers. HHUUGGSS!!
Michele: It looks to me that you have a winner in Junior. It's so nice to have someone care when you've had a bad day. Gary: I'm staying warm under my quilt these days. It's really cold out there. We do get used to it after a while but I just feel the cold more these days. I keep hoping it's the weight loss but I don't think it is. I'm becoming a wimp!! The specialist still hasn't called about DS's asthma. We think his reports must have got lost in the mail or something. This is unusually long even for up here. He seems to be feeling a lot better so hopefully he'll be able to back to work full time soon. The newlyweds are doing great. Broke but great. They still come over once a week for dinner so we keep in touch that way but for the most part they keep to themselves. Wonder why!:o mkay: We don't have much more snow than you do but we keep it for much longer!! Keep us posted on your sale! Lori: Those boys do look like trouble!! I wonder what they'll be when they grow up. It neat to see the gifts and interests show up as they mature. Let me know when Abbi gets the postcard. I really tried finding one with snow on it but couldn't. I guess our tourism industry doesn't want to advertise the snow!! Well, I should get back to my quilt. Tomorrow I get highlites put in my hair and then its off to my DH's staff Christmas party. Sunday our church care group gets together so it's a busy weekend for us. Take care! |

HI GALS:wave:
Hope everyone is doing well. Angie and I had take-out, chinese, for dinner. She is doing her evening crossword puzzle, kids are all out~ so I thought I would check in. Had the day off so I took Reba and Rylee to angie's school to visit...I almost didn't get to her classroom ~~ the doors were all open ~~ Angie's is at the end of her section ~~ had to pass by other teachers that know the girls and kids...my girls were quite the :queen: :yes: :queen: today. WILMA~I would call the doctor up just to verify...keep them honest...a few years ago I waited months for a report on my nephew...somehow it just got shoved in his file and forgotten about. Those newlyweds may be keeping to themselves...but I bet they aren't keeping their hands to themselves :sssh: :love: :sssh: MICHELE~ You are a great friend...prayers continue for Denise. Seems like you are not fond of her daughter? LORI~I was just checking on those [postcards...making sure she received them so I didn't look like an idiot...:lol: shut up ANG!:lol: It will be cool if you do get them, some show a lot of our area here. MKAY~ Me too..but the light show sure is cool! Sounds like you and Gary have the "deal" that works for you both in your relationship! Good for you. MARILYN~ Way to go girl!! Now keep pushing:wl: :drill: :coach: KARLA~Continued prayers. Well hello to everyone....off to vist my wife!! |
Hi, Oh Gary, made me hungry for Chinese food! Hope you two enjoyed it. I had homemade chili and cornbread, yum. Gary, it's not that i don't like the daughter but there are some definite problems there with how the whole family treats Denise, especially now. I think it's because i'm so close to my mamacita that i get really irritated with others. I'm sure there are reasons and it's really none of my business. This daughter is an odd duck, but i'm not living her life, so whatever. I ended up with a migraine today, think from the smoke, i tryed to just go about my business, did some shopping with mom but it wouldn't leave me. Ended up taking something and going to bed for 3 hours. It's gone now! Oh, Lori, your kids are adorable!! Having fun in the snow...and you do have a princess there too! |
I was watching the morning show on CBS this morning and saw that the guy with the light show had to shut it down. I guess he just had too much traffic and attention that people were complaining...he lives in Mason, Ohio....
See you later...have a great week-end MICHELE~ We had sweet and sour chicken ~ chicken lo mein ~ tofu w/ vegetable ~ and egg fried rice ~ Plenty of leftovers for lunch ~ Chili sounds good too! I make my chili different than my mom's...my family really likes it...but they also missed Grammy Judi's chili...called her this week for recipe and made it on Tuesday...it was a hit...brought back memories for my kids and nephew...but they did say to make "mine" next time..... |
Michele,
Thanks for the welcome. I am doing well, staying op. nice day here its warming up Have a great sunday Shirl |

I am sending some of the :sunny: to those that need it ;). Angie had to play bells at service last night, my step-d played a couple of songs on the piano too, so I went last night. Angie and Lara had to play again this morning, nephew went too. Ryan and Amanda both had dates last night to see Keith Urban...they both stayed in San Diego, so I am home all alone and sad :cry:...yea right :rolleyes: I was already able to get a chuck roast in the crock-pot, for hungarian stew, for tonights dinner....washed the truck yesterday...so...must be PLAY time for me today....must be a football game on somewhere..;) Did you all watch the HEISMAN trophy presentation?...WELL I DID!! actually I had to tape the end of it since I went to church....my USC player REGGIE BUSH won!:cb: :dancer: :cheer: :cp: :carrot: My son and I sure were pulling for him, he had a great year...plus that means USC has had 3 of the last 4 HEISMAN trophy winners!:carrot: Ties us with that dreaded nortre dame for the most...most of theirs were years ago though, except for TIM BROWN...who I love since he was a RAIDER great for years!! I know you all don't really care ;) But that's OK...Reggie is a local boy, went to school in San Diego, so I was able to see highlights each week of his games, plus see him play in person a few times...awesome player...just spreading the :love: SHIRL~:welcome: I see you found us ;) My best friend just moved to Kansas...against his wishes...a few months ago. Long story but my wife and I had a home built in Washington last year...a few miles from them...but just as soon as we moved there...for the summer...he lost his job and the only place in his field hiring was in Kansas. He is located in Burlington. He did mention the :snowglo: last week....brrrr :shocksn: Well, geeeeeeeeeee wizzzzzzzzzzzzz.....I am up to date on the posts since you are all out exercising and having fun!! OH...I just discovered Rachael Ray's show (although I have read about her...in Guideposts)...what a cool gal! Thinking about making her :wreath: Christmas Pasta for Christmas Eve :santa: ...to feed about 20....looks easy and can make the sauce ahead of time. Have a great week ahead gals......Gary |

Sorry, i went a bit overboard but i wanted to see them all. Happy Sunday! I'm up late, missed church, but getting ready and going with my friend to her daughters soccer game at 1:00. Gary is right, it is really beautiful here today. But i don't want to rub it in to all of you who are fighting the cold and snow. That can be beautiful too, i remember, but i'm happy to be here. Haven't seen Junior in a couple days, he thought i was mad at him, and i'm not....men....they are silly. It's great to have someone in my life, but i forgot how much work it can be. Went shopping yesterday with my dear mamacita, she got a lot done. I'm going to make peppermint marshmallows today, hopefully they will come out good. I want to make some gifts of hot chocolate mix and homemade marshmallows. Have a great Sunday! :hug: to all! |
