Your Welcome Jenn

Katy - since I read the posts in such a hurry yesterday, I missed your comment about the forehead tattoos!!! Hilarious!!! The thing is, when we do all meet up, I'm gonna put those red Elmo leashes on each of you so you don't wander off, lol. That's in addition to the tattoos and maybe some Jaded Lady t-shirts - what do you think, ladies?

Jane is that a retractable leash, If you Luv us that much I'm touched, not just in the head ,in the heart to

Where are you Cristi.I saw you were in my mailbox ,did you get stuck in there

Good afternoon ladies~

Was trying to read posts in between e-mails to my mother. So surprised to hear from her. She is terrible at writing.

Anyway...Ellen~not sure why you think I wouldn't care for the music-I listen to Tupac, Marilyn Manson etc. and I did listen to the songs. I think they are mild compared to some of the stuff I have listened to. But very good!

Susan~I cannot believe that you bought that dress for $4.99! WOW, you are a good shopper. It really is a cute dress and Gaby is adorable.

Katy~I didn't send the card expecting one in return girly. I love to send cards and write-ask anyone I know! What all are you guys going to do to your house? Can't wait to hear about it all. You keep saying expansive and I am picturing a whole new addition to the house, which would be fun!

I think it was Ellen who mentioned painting the trim on her house and it reminded me of our one house in CA. We bought it it was a light beige kind of cream colored with brown trim. We had it stuccoed (love the stucco houses in CA) a greyish blue and I painted all the trim and garage doors blue, the porch grey and ripped off some ugly wood panelling on the front. DH#1 made the railing around the porch and it turned out nice. I so enjoy working on the house. Apparently DS#2 got a little of me because he loves that kind of stuff also.

Angie~I would love to see a pic of you all dressed up! The outfit sounds so very pretty.

Jane~you really will love Ireland. It's funny that a lot of us are part Irish. Of course I call myself a mutt-family came from England, Germany, Ireland and somwhere else I can never remember. Meant to ask yesterday how Gina and Terry's wedding plans are coming along. Are they going to have a church wedding? Garden, at home, justice of the peace? Can't wait to hear the details when they get started with the planing.

Jenn~you definitely will take his breath away. We only saw the dress but I did see your pretty face on your profile and you are gorgeous!

Was off to Target this morning. Wanted to get this wall shelf for my bathroom. Have one that goes from the floor almost to the ceiling and I don't like it at all. Don't like all the stuff out looking cluttered.

Hi everyone else Sorry I am out of time to finish posting. Of course won't make chat tonight as it is Thursday and my favorite shows are on...The OC, CSI and Without a Trace. V wanted me to meet him for dinner since he has to work late and playing around I said I will think about it. then remembered it was Thursday and told him I can't! Isn't that terrible?! He understands tho, and loves me and knows unless it is an emergency I don't miss my shows!!

Anyway...this is a quickie as I have run out of time and you ladies are killing me trying to keep up. But I like that there are lots of posts to read. Will possibly get on late tonight, not sure. If not will see you ladies tomorrow.

Take care all and have a great day! See ya........

Afternoon

Very cute Jenn! You are so talented, I can't do attachments or nothing. I don't even have a ticker....

Just sneaking on for a second. Having a so so morning.

No, I wasn't calling you a ding dong Ellen. I am saying "do you want a ding dong??".....lol. I feel so fat today -

No, I am not calling you fat Ellen....lol

Katy!!! Yes, I got the message. I will be there tomorrow at 10:30. I went today at 11 only to realize it didn't start til 1:30. Someday we will get it right.....maybe the JL tattoo dye is sinking into our brain - thus causing confusion on times and days????

OMG!!!! I had a dozen pink roses on my desk when I came in.......from my Russian beau????? I don't know.....they are on my desk now. Smells wonderful.....

Don't know about the drug thing Pam. I need to call my lawyer......the next thing was the decision on the custody evaluation,.....

boss alert!!!

best get...............

Hey Susan- Tomorrow's a no school day..and usually there's no play park on those days because they do kid camps. Anyway, I'll have my son with me and he's too old for it. If the weather's nice, I'll take the kids to Gabriel outside park to play....maybe you and Gaby can stop by there....

Hmmm, flowers ...a secret admirer?

Our renovation is going to be an expansion. We will be adding a bed/bath/walk-in closet to the back side of our house on the other side of the play room. The remodel includes renovating the playroom which currently is partially finished. Finished enough for the kids to have a great place to play, but that's about all. I'm excited. This house is small, only 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. We cope nicely...better than most families would I think. But the kids need to have their own rooms at some point. We could have turned the shop into more bedrooms, but opted for a playroom and it was a good decision. The kids share the bedroom beautifully and the playroom gives them more space for all their excess energy. Still, someday they will be adolescents and sharing a room just won't work then.

Jenn - I love that wedding dress - you will be a beautiful bride...what an exciting time!

Pam - sorry the xsob is still having difficulty...your son is a saint. I hope he can get his dad all situated and can come home soon.

Don't know if any of you stay up late enough to watch Primetime Live, but they are doing a segment on John of God... a faith healer who lives up the Amazon. My uncle and his wife went to visit John of God last year and said they were part of a documentary. I think they might be on this Primetime Live segment....I'm thinking they were in the same group of people, though not specifically profiled. If any of you watch it, tell me what you think...My uncle got some dietary recommendations, like herbs or something, but I haven't heard much from him or his wife about any outcomes from their time with him, good or bad. It's a very interesting situation...don't know how I feel about it all.

Hope all is well where you are

arrrrgh, Yes you are right Katy......tattoo dye oooozzzzing out of my toes. I have an appointment at JCPennys to pick up pictures at 11:30.

If it is nice though I will try and stop by the park on the way.....lol. How funny......by the play area?? If not next Monday?? I don't know where that other gym is at that you have mentioned.

Anywho.......yes, an admirer.....I hope he has teeth....

btw- what does pink mean??? Something romantic , I am sure......lol

Going out and survey my cars parked in the lot.....maybe I can tow someone??? lol

ugh - and showed a unit to a nice lil elderly lady with a dog, now I smell like a terrier....

yikes...........boss!!!!

Oh my....how do I keep up????

Since I"m a little behind here and I have to still get ready for work...I will just do some general chatting. I will try to do individuals next time.

Got up early today, earlier than usual, 9:30. James had to take the car in to get the leather treatment done. So now we have a rental car to drive around and I don't like it so I will be driving the toyota to work. Why did we need a rental anyway???? Who knows, but we didn't have to pay for it so it's ok.

Got my errands ran this morning and then we stopped and picked up some Chinese food. OHHHHHHH......what a mistake! I'm one big bloated girl right now. but it was good. Won't do that again for a loooonnngggg time.

Been working out on my gazelle. I absolutely hate my thighs....they looks so, hmmmm....how would I describe them...deflated! I really need to tone them up if possible.

I borrowed this book from a girl at work...."What not to wear" the Brittish version of the show. And my goodness.....I break ever rule in there for my body type!! So now I need to figure out how to shop to make my body look more attractive and appealing rather than short and stubby!

Ok....ladies...I need to do up my hair and head out the door. I will get back on sometime and try to catch up after work.

Oh......I'll send my address to whoever wants to exchange....Jenn, I have yours.....anyone else?? Pam....do I have yours??

Ok...off I go.

Hugs to you all.
Take Care

Busy place today!

Jenn - just so you'll know, you don't need emails to alert you when there are new posts here. There are new posts everyday, without fail, so just come on in, ok? Terry and Gina aren't sure when the big day is. They want to pay cash for everything and need some time for that. They were planning on getting married outdoors, like Neal and I did, but not sure if that's carved in stone. She changes her mind on things, which is her prerogative. I told her to just tell me what color dress to buy, and for which day, lol.

Cristi - thank you for the valentine! Very sweet. No cluttered bath surfaces for me, either, Cristi! Just like the kitchen. One thing I have sitting on my bath counter top is a 5x7 frame with a picture of Neal as a little boy, and in the same frame, a picture of me as a little girl. It helps us remember that we were each vulnerable and somebody's sweet little child. Just looking at it makes me want to hug him.

Marti - one thing I have already found out with the Gazelle is that you can work different muscles with it depending on how you stand. I like to lean in and use my bat wing muscles, lol. Didn't you say yours came with a video? Mine didn't - but it is a cheaper one than yours, I think. It's the Edge model.

Hi to everyone else.

I'll be in the chat room at 8 my time (about 5 min from now). Hope some of you will be there. For the newbies, go to the Jaded Ladies room there. Edited to add: oops, I think I'm an hour off? Not sure if I'll be back at 9 or not.

TTFN,

Jane - I think you're an hour off...I think it's 6 pm my time ( PST)..I'm working on dinner now, but I'll be trying to get away to checkin on chat 6sih..maybe 6:15...

Susan - yeah the play area - if the weather's nice, I'll be there 10ish. If I see you, I 'll tell you how to get to Fulton. It's only a buck and they open at 10 am and they have way more riding toys than SWCC. I like it better because it is less crowded....


Hope I see some JLs in chat in one hour...and counting down....

Me again - no one in chat I will double check times....I like chatting, feels wierd when I miss so many of them!

I'm bailing on my meeting tonight. I went bumper bowling with my DD's preschool class...then walked for an hour...then walked some more to take DS to piano lessons...i'm wiped. Ever seen 16 3 year olds try to bowl...it's very entertaining. For one thing...it takes forever for the balls to make it down the lane to actually touch a pin. Fortunately the bumpers keep them from going in the gutters. The kids went wild, of course, because they are easily entertained. No, you can't run after the pin down the lane...get back here!


And that's my life today folks

See you tomorrow
