Well actually we are somewhere. We're continuing our stay right in Ottawa.

The leaf peeping is over.

Carla's lake is so cold that you nearly crack your teeth swimming in it.

But the people are warm and friendly and we've had a good stay here so far. So at risk of overstaying our welcome, we're running down to the store to pick up some long underwear, fleece shirts, warm socks and a bottle or two of the "sauce" to take the nip out of the air

Since there's no packing involved, no toting suitcases, no finding room at the inn - just kick your shoes off and relax. The hot cider is on it's way out... abc

... back from the store. Great things await you chicks.

Still going. Thought I might have time to post today, but unless that happens this afternoon, then no way. Won't be posting over the weekend since DS1 and DS1'sPartner are here. Back Monday if not Friday arvo.

X-rated is x-rated. Tut tut Mel.

Madcat - not that you are reading this, but have a wonderful time.

Fill my cup with hot apple cider please. My favorite drink this time of year.
Cheers.

You want a cinnamon stick in that Ceejay? I've just been to Penzey's spices and I have some of the good stuff.

Have a good weekend Shad. Don't work too hard.

Madcat don't forget that you and Sis have to at Mel over the bridge.

Rennie - glad you found us this time around.

Um if I could ask a favor of Ruth, Holly, Madcat and Carla - let's keep the snowflakes to just a flurry or two if you absolutely MUST show us some of the white stuff.

Hey, Happy, we'll do our best to keep the snowflakes few and far between, but there's NO way we'll make it out of NOvember in Ottawa without getting walloped by the white stuff. Global warming my a**...

You started the new thread just in time - I was going to suggest something along the lines of 'Naughty NOmads Going NOwhere in NOvember'. Do you think that might have attracted a few new posters?

Carla - I love your suggestion but the last time (3 years ago) we started a new thread and didn't have something about Worldly Chicks in the title, we lost of few members. Had to strap the keg around the dogs and send out the St. Bernards. Even then we still wound up with a few drunken chicks and lost the dogs too

And wouldn't nomads going nowhere be an oxymoron? Keep thinking - I need the laughs.

Since I'm having a little bout of insomnia here, I might as well entertain Happy whose light is still lit... It's already 1:45 here, I have to be up at 7, no sign of sleepiness on the horizon. Grrrr. Anyway, maybe another Carla-style option could have been 'Worldly Chicks, NOmads no More, going NOwhere New in NOvember'.
I must be tired - I thought that was funny until I wrote it down.

By the way, Happy, just who do you think you are anyway, calling me a moron!!!?? Adding 'oxy' to the front of the word doesn't make it any less insulting you know.
And you might want to find those Saint Bernards - we'll need them once the blizzards start.

I know, I know. Go to bed, Carla. Stop annoying the nice people already. Sheesh!

Sheesh you lot

Not working this weekend. Son will be here at crack of dawn tomorrow.

It's hard for me to fathom that as I get up to start my day, Shad has already torn through it and gotten more done than I did in a week. Of course, you were always more ambitious than me.

Carla - You remind me of a slice of myself 10 years ago. Still up at 2 and crashing just before you have to get up again. Too little sleep, not good. But then again when you can't sleep, what can you do? We'll have to get the chicks to rock you to sleep and sing lullabys. - will probably wind up more like jumping on the bed, screaming and having a pillow fight - but we tried.

Your suggestions are interesting but I don't think I can change the thread title once I post it. Don't know why that is but I will keep it in mind for the next go round.

If we want to bring in more posters (more likely more lurkers) I think we should go with Painter's innocent but now classic line about Lesbian Friends Finding Success doing WW.

Well, since one of your Worldly Chicks is a super-MOD, I could change the title if you like. Let me know.

This week has just flown by with stuff happening, both good and bad, but today is absolutely free except for cranking out the Church bulletin. I plan to tackle part of the sewingroom - the ironing and mending part - so I can quilt and maybe even work on that darned turquoise silk blouse I've been dabbling at for two years! The morning is clearing beautifully after a real pail of milk fog earlier so I may take a few swipes at garden clean-up.

Snow? Well, last year we had some briefly in October and only two minor flurries in November on the 19th and 30th so I am hoping for an "open winter" again.

Just remembered, I need to order more wood. If the Worldlies are in Ottawa, they just might make it to Delta for a visit and we need to be comfy.

Have a great TGIF.

RUTH..YOU BETTER STOCK UP ON THE WINE, QUILTS AND WOOD CAUSE YOU KNOW WE'RE HEADED YOUR WAY!! AND BY THE LOOKS OF SHAD'S POSTS, SHE'S BRINGING THE TROOPS

ONE NAUGHTY NOMAD CHICK REPORTING IN FOR DUTY!!
I AM LAUGHING MY BUTT OFF OVER HERE. AND THE LESBIAN WW WOULD HAVE REALLY GOT US THE MOST HITS ON A THREAD IN NOVEMBER....MAYBE EVEN HAVE SET A RECORD ON 3FC
I'VE BEEN LAUGHING SO MUCH I FORGOT WHAT WAS SAID ON THE OLD THREAD AND THE 1ST PAGE HERE.
AT LEAST NOVEMBER IS STARTING OFF WITH BELLY LAUGHS! GOD KNOW MINE COULD USE SOME EXERCISE ANYWAY! IF WE LAUGH HARD ENOUGH MAYBE I CAN LOSE ANOTHER POUND
SITTING HERE TRYING MY BEST TO THINK AND IT'S JUST NOT HAPPENING TODAY. FEELING HAPPY BUT FOGGY. I'LL GET MORE PERSONAL TOMORROW SORRY 'BOUT THAT!
HAPPY FRIDAY AND HOPE WE ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND. I DUTIFULLY WAVED IN THE DIRECTION OF NYC LAST NIGHT. HOPE MADCAT FELT THE VIBE

Happy, I love the title we now have, just being silly with alternate versions. But if we get snowed in this month, maybe we could all jsut move down to Ruth's - 'Worldly Chicks Do Delta in December'. Or, for that matter, like the infamous Debbie of soft porn, we could always do Dallas...
(This is what sleep deprivation does to the mind. Not a pretty thing.)

I love both of them. Then again... there's always "The Worldly Chicks do Santa in December"
