Angie, that is so cute about how "she wouldn't like you anymore", I remember how mad my mom was too, I had long straight hair down to my behind and I took a big piece from the side and kind of made a mullet on one side of my head. I checked the Bravo website and the show is called Hidden Howie, forgot to check what days it is going to be on though. It had a preview clip on the site. I just love his humor. Kind of like Tom Green maybe? Well I am going to go and start chugging my water now so I am not up all night going to the bathroom. I ate too much salt at dinner.

Have a good evening girls. I have some quiet time here right now, dh took the kids to the toy store. I hope they don't spend a lot on toys!

test post, eveytime I post and click submit, I have to click my refresh button and submit again. Whats up with that? Okay the Packers are coming on soon!

Hey girls, I had to stop by at home for while. We bought this new bed back in June, a "Sterling" brand something or other with the memory foam? This was what we bought when we actually wanted to go out and get a Tempurpedic .Anyway, this bed has a 3" pillow topper that on one side, is much softer than the other. The sales manager actually came out to the house to check it out. There's something wrong w/the tailoring of the mattress protector itself that's causing it to slide...so they're replacing the whole bed on Monday. Cr@p, i shoulda just gotten the darn Tempurpedic like I wanted--(hindsight is 20/20, eh?).

The roofers finished the job yesterday so there were no more hotties up on the roof this morning, so I figured I might as well go to work

Kempy, that is funny that you had to shower w/the light off and run past the window Have fun at your pampered chef party. I guess you get buying credit from the orders that people place, like PartyLite candles? I've never been to a PC party but then I don't even have my own freakin' house to buy for

Angie, your kitties are so lucky to have a huge playhouse for them. I was checking those out on ebay when you mentioned them, but shipping would probably cost a fortune to ship to me. My cats just use the old dining chairs my grandma used to have, I bet you can imagine what the upholstery looks like when it's used as a scratching post. I feel sick, one of the feral cats we feed "kitty boy" (i know, lame name), came home with a huge hole in his neck this morning. He didn't come around yesterday to eat but this morning he was there and he didn't even run away when I went to pet him. He must be really bad off. I couldn't find him after breakfast time otherwise I would bring him to the vet or something. It looks like maybe someone shot him w/a BB gun? I don't think a cat fight could make such a huge hole like that. Poor kitty.

Julie, oh no, not a self haircut! It's funny you mention it, but today is Michael's picture day. I hope you can find someone to fix your DS's hair. At least he's a boy and if you really had to, you could just buzz it and let it grow back in. I was at home this morning and yesterday watching Regis and Kelly w/Howie Mandel. His humor kinda reminds me of Ellen Degeners...they're so deadpan and quick that you don't know if they're serious or not. He's one of those germaphobes isn't he? He didn't wanna taste the food that lady was making because they used the same table they were showing the stinky turtle on

Dips how was your day today? Did ya get everything done? Sometimes I feel like we need more than 24 hours in a day. How's the weather up in NYC?

Hey to Cal and CHerie, hope you guys are doing well. I gotta run and pick up the boy from school. Have a good evening.

Hi girls

Noelle I hope you get that bed fixed. You guys need something comfy to sleep in after a long day at work.

Dips have a nice visit with your Dad. I hope you got it cleaned up in time.

Well sorry so short of a post tonight. Kind of tired. Going to try and get some school shoppin in this weekend. Gotta make a list. Check back in this weekend. Have a good one everyone. Hi out there ladies.

Just wanted to stop by and let everyone know that I'm still here. This last week was very busy. The kids seem ok so far. We've only had 2 of them in lunch detention already. Overall, though, a much better group than last year. We're going to have a busy year, which I'm glad for because it keeps the kids on their toes. Only 8 weeks until Fall break. (Yes, Noelle, I have already started the countdown!!

The weather has gotten a little better. It's still hot (in the upper 90's), but the humidity is a bit high. However, it is bareable.

Hello to everyone. It's late and I'm off to bed. Have a great weekend.

Cal

Hi girls on this Sunday....I hope everyone is having a good one.

Dips, thank you for the compliments you are a sweetie. That cake was something, huh? If any of us ever have a crazy party we will have to send an order to Angie and she will come up with something!

Cal glad to see you checked in. I was thinking about you. Let the countdown begin to fall break.

Going to go get dinner started now. Actually we just walked in the door from my mom's. Went school shopping for supplies and backpacks for the kids and spent $82.00 in one hour. Isn't that crazy? That didn't even include a lunchbox for my boy or gym shoes for him yet. School years are expensive, I guess. Just getting started....I better get use to it. . Check back later on. Have a nice rest of the weekend everyone.

Hi girls, bumping us up....will check back later

Anybody here today? How was everyone's weekend? I stayed pretty busy all weekend. I also was up to late last night watching Comedy Central's Pam Anderson's Roast. It was pretty nasty and dirty but really funny.
Noelle did you catch it? Tommy Lee was there and he was a subject of alot of jokes. His show also starts this week. Dh is looking foward to that. Well gotta run and grab some lunch. I did not have a healthful eating weekend. Got into the brownies again. So I hope I can drop my ten pounds I want to lose and start eating healthy and right.

Come out everyone when you get the time....

I'M MELTING!!!!!! It is so hot down here right now. It really isn't hotter than any other day but I just can't take it anymore. I am keeping myself inside until about 5 and even then it is still hot. Not much to report. The PC party was fun, but I am glad it is over. I was freaking out about people coming over. I wanted the house to be perfect. Weird I know. Now, I can relax.

We are getting things together for vacation and that just wont get here fast enough. What is bad is that Echo AND Rhea are in heat so we are going to have to take them to my FIL and have him really watch them so they don't get in trouble. We are going to get them fixed but then they went into heat. YUCK!

I need to go let them out so I will try to pop on a little later with more of a real post.

Stay Cool Kempy ! I am sick of the heat too. But I won't be saying that in Febuary . I don't know what the heck I was thinking tonight by cooking dinner in the oven, I made a pizza pasta casserole and homemade banana muffins, I was just sweating in the kitchen. Glad the party went well, I am sure your house looked beautiful for it. I know what you mean though about having company over. I get stressed sometimes too. If the girls get into to trouble I would love a puppy , I am keeping my eye out for the right one.

Check back in tonight girls. Hi out there everyone, hope your day is going well.

I missed Pam Anderson's roast!! AWWW MAAAAN I was sooo looking forward to it but Comedy Central should re-air it so hopefully I can catch it later. I really like her. She's a lot of fun to watch and she's so darn pretty. What a sport she is for putting herself out there to be roasted.Anyways ...



Kempy- I feel for you. Fortunately for us New Yorkers,we've been getting a lot of rain which put an end to our heat wave. Unfortunately it also caused problems on the subway. But it feels a lot better outside these days. BTW keep close watch on those doggies!


Hi J- I had a great weekend. I didn't want to go back to work today but, gotta pay the bills, right? Going back to school is going to be costly for me too. Books alone are going to leave me broke. If you think it's bad now, wait till college!

I'm making steaks for dinner tonight acompanied by mixed veggies and brown rice. I actually have a big appetite tonight so I'm going to take advantage without abusing it. My BF made rosemary chicken last night. It was pretty good. I was just happy to get a break from the kitchen. Okay, gotta chop up the squash. I'll be back later.

Ooooohhhhh yeahhhhhh.... Julie, I didn't catch the Pam Anderson roast but I did catch Tommy Lee on Regis & Kelly...I dunno what it is about him, he's so scruffy looking, but he still does it for me I've been lusting after him since 1984? 7th grade? naughty I know. He's the reason I chose to play the drums in band. I have strange taste in men I guess (look what I married, just kidding!). Hey, one of my girlfriends said there's a rumor that Motley Crue may end their US tour in Hawaii. I can only wait w/bated breath . Steve Carrell(?) (40 y.o. Virgin) is a funny guy too. I loved him in Bruce Almighty, I remember watching that movie on a plane and trying not to laugh too loud.

Kempy, I so know what you mean about not being able to take the freakin' heat anymore. It's been staying up in the low 90's here, sometimes w/a storm passing by then all the tradewinds die down, it's miserable. It cools down pretty good at night though, sometimes dipping into the low 70's. So did you guys give up on breeding Echo? I'm pretty sure neutering keeps them healthier in the long run.

Dips, thanks for the PM, I'll send my info over. It seems my PC's are still out to make my life as miserable as possible so I can't always get online. Did ya have a good visit w/your dad?

Hey Cal, I guess I shouldn't be complaining about the heat considering where you live. I know you have no trouble keeping those kids in line, glad you have a great bunch of kids to work with this year.

Angie, how's it going w/you girl? You still sprucing up your house? How's the housing market in ME? Are you guys still keeping an eye out to sell and buy a new place?

Cherie, hope your move is going smoothly. Thinking about you and the girls.

Well, gotta stop here. It's lunch time and I'm starving (well, not quite )

Dips your boyfriend sounds like he can cook. Thats great. And your dinner sounds really good and healthy. I am glad your heat wave has ended. They are re-airing the roast now. So funny, I can't believe they can get away with saying the things they do on tv now. When I was a kid I never heard a swear word on tv. Now the soaps and talk shows are full of them.

Noelle, you better be at that concert if they do end the tour there. I can see you bringing Rick along screaming "I love you Tommy!" LOL....
I missed Regis and Kelly because golf was on. Blah.

Hi everyone else....Angie, Kempy, Cherie, and Cal
