Wow Shad - those are gorgeous!!!!

Hiya-- I've enjoyed the Cadbury season... but it is a good thing it's almost over.
I spent the afternoon at a painting class: Who knew there was so much challenge to abstract expressionism?!! The main thing is about "staying free" and not getting scared or stuck-- OH, AND having something that is visually pleasing at the end. I did the first part, but am not so happy with the results now that I got it home. I was happy I got the paint out of my t-shirt, though!

Mel-- glad you can have a calm Sunday with minimal required action. Hope the inflammations calm down. I had to semi-stand at a stool while painting, and my leg was more sore than it's been in two weeks. Relafen, here I come.

Diyana--If I had "it" to do over... I'd probably try something with more ART and less "brain." I am loving the painting and knitting and sketching. Am not trying to make a living at it, but just loving it. I hope you find a way to get more animals in your life! (There's always "Animal Cop" on cable!!)

Roseblush-- How wonderful to read Eat, Pray, Love when it's so cold! I loved the book. Don't know that I'd want to go through that experience at this phase of my life, but the way she expresses herself reminds me of what it was like to be young.

CeeJay- Glad you kept the water pure! A friend of mine near WhiteRock lake actually say a school bus that got rolled over. I don't know if it had kids in it or not. And then there was a mother with 4 children who drove into deep water. I don't know what I think about that. I understand the "urgency" to get home, but not the risk.

Rennie--Can you implement an ROTC plan for the summer visiting children? or their adults? My ex sent our kids to grandma's and she ran them so ragged they stopped wanting to go pretty soon.... I don't know if that was her intention or not.
(Loved the cartoon.)

Shad: Hope you are doing what you love. I heard Rick Steves on the radio today... and he said the UK, Auz and NZ had more vacation and better lives in contrast to the US because the GOVERNMENT looks out for individuals instead of corporations. So the GOVERNMENT advocates for vacations (hence less argument over "religious" days off) AND more confidence about getting hired after time off. Because Corporations have the power her, it is hard to maintain confidence that if you took a year off (for motherhood, care of a family member, travel, or education) that there'd be a place for you. He also said that when there was not much income disparity (or class disparity) it was easier to ENJOY what you have.

Ruth-- LOVE the trampy dye job cartoon.

Save me from the Cadbury's!

Happy Easter Worldly Chicks

Happy Easter Everyone.

I think I have read all the posts and caught up. Not going to personalize at this point.

What a long week and finally getting back to somewhat normal.

Last Saturday I felt the most unGodly sharp pains shooting through my tummy all day and evening. That lightened up then moved around to my back for the remainder of the night and into Sunday. Around 1 pm on Sunday I had DD take me to ER at the Bariatric Hospital. Come to find out I had an internal hernia. Doc did surgery on Monday afternoon ( after starving since Satruday) No foods or drinky. Came home on Tuesday afternoon with vicoprofin. (Vidoden with ibuprofen) Just going back to work on Monday. My intestine had looped into an empty pocket (pocket made by losing fat on the inside as well as the outside) and hooked around something else. Laproscopically doc went in thru belly button and 3 other tiny holes, pulled the intestine back, and sewed the pocket shut. Good as new. ha ha. Nothing life threatening, all is good. Amen.

Surgery didn't get all of DDs precancerous cells off of cervix, doc is going to wait 3 more months and go from there. Many tears from this momma. Please pray for her.

DS has knee surgery tomorrow. Very easy surgery all should be good.

Thank all you lovely women for all your support.

Many hugs and love

Good morning ladies,

:easter2: to you all!

It's a bit chilly this morning but sure to warm up nicely as the day rolls on. DH and I were out yesterday and I picked up 2 bowls that had 12 tulip bulbs that were just starting to bloom in them. One is red, the other yellow with red streaks. We planted them (bowls and all) out front. My thinking with the bowls was that the blooms will only last 2 weeks or so, when they fade, I can pull the planters out, cut the leaves out once they completely wither and store the bowls bulbs, dirt and all for next year. (Will have to remember to pull them out in time to wake them up from dormancy). I kind of hate planting spring bulbs because I always seem to accidently dig them up when I'm planting summer flowers. I also have a cute mini sign with a bunny, chick and lamb on it that says Happy Spring. I can see it when I open the front door and the sign and flowers look so cheery that it brightens my mood in an instant. With Easter being so early and it warming up a bit here, DH was in the mood to plant. We went to the nursery yesterday but it was obvious - it's really too early right now. I hope DH will want to go to the Humane Society this afternoon. They are open in the afternoon only on Sundays and he likes to do things first thing in the morning so he has time to work around the house or play his guitar the rest of the day. I picked up some cuddly soft blankets on clearance yesterday. Going to cut them into small rectangles and make some kitty mats for my friends. Figured I could do this cheaper than buying them at the pet store. Of course this means cutting and dragging out my sewing machine and figuring out how to thread the :censored: thing. That will be a fun project to kill a day when I should be doing something else instead :s:

Annie - geez Louise woman. So sorry to hear about the innards getting messed up. I'm glad things came out ok, rest up and feel better. Will continue prayers for the DD. Apparently what she is experiencing is not all that unusual. Guess my niece has had to go in 3 times already for treatment. Scary.

Mel my buddy - Happy Easter to you. I thought about the ham steaks too. Started to pick up a spiral sliced honey baked ham yesterday at the store and saw it was $33. :eek: Of course it was nothing compared to the beef tenderloins for $65 and up that were right next to them. And the standing rib roast (prime rib) for $165. This was at the local rinky dink neighborhood Kroger food store. I thought - what a shame. This meat is going to go to waste for the most part. I am starting to open my eyes and see how much we shamefully waste in this country. I looked around in the bin and saw regular old hams on sale for $11. Figured that was more in the budget. Are you having dinner with Jen today? How's dem purdy yellow jammies? Are you looking spiffy today? ;)

Painter - I have always found Cadbury's to be a bit too rich and sweet. Especially those mock eggs they have at Easter that people so adore. I decided on one box of Dove chocolate truffles. Individually wrapped. Several flavors. Limit of 2 per day and that's sharing them with DH who will probably scarf down half the box anyway. It's nice to know that in some countries the government looks after their people. Not so in the United States of Greed where the companies pay off the politicians to look after their best interests. I see more and more companies outsourcing jobs here to overseas resources. I think they should be fined heavily. Jobs are going away and if the government was smart, they would realize that they are also losing a huge tax base too.

Shad - the flowers are beautiful. Even if they are up to some entwining and swapping pollens :devil: Well Demolition Dan, I sure am glad to hear that you didn't injure your foot. :yikes: what a close call. And a good reminder that lightweight shoes are probably not a good idea when doing home renovations. Sorry to hear that you christened the new microwave. Guess it's good that you didn't have 20 cabinets in that room! :lol:

Ceejay - I envy you ladies with the wonderful hair that grows so quickly! When you finish the Rav4, want to come and do it's big sister - my 4Runner? It's sure in need of a cleaning. This is the time of year we shouldn't park under the tree (:censored: birds having a dive bomb field day). My car was so icky last week that I asked DH to help me wash it - this was 2 hours before we were supposed to get torrential rain storms. DH said the neighbors must think we are looney to be washing the cars before it starts raining out. But they were that bad. Good for you for getting outside. Good exercise too with all that stretching and reaching and bending down and such.

I decided to get a ham after all. Going to make some potato salad too - not so much for me - one serving is enough - but DH likes it. Might make some ham and scalloped potatoes later this week for one meal. I also had a tasty recipe for soup with ham in it - will have to go and find it. Picked up some nice strawberries too and some CHOCOLATE Cool Whip (whipped topping). That will make a nice, not too sinful dessert. Should have got some asparagus too as that goes nicely with ham. I went to the store yesterday because I figured everything would be picked over today and it was a zoo. I tried to hurry through the store and realize now that I forgot a few things. Oh well - not like the store is 50 miles away.

Anyway I have just pushed DH into going with me to the Humane Society so I'd better get a few things together. Hope you all have a nice Easter.

Morning all

You can now all rest in your beds in the knowledge that Mel and I have taken the world apart, fixed it and put it back together again. 2.5hrs discussion seems to fix these things. We've sorted the American way of life, the Aussie conundrum and the Canadian Goose step, so be aware you are now sorted and all you have to do in this world is to lose the weight and attain perfection. Speaking of which, apart from Mel, I don't hear a lot coming out of the perfection stakes race to 100 days. Are you all six days into perfection now??

There are no Easter eggs in this neck of the woods. Bunny obviously fell into a big hole somewhere as he hasn't made it to the house yet. DS2 doesn't want any and I'm not a chocolate fan so there you go. Any that end up here will eventually land up at the niece and nephews place anyway.

Today I plan to do a chart to keep me on the straight and narrow to get the cleaning and painting done in the kitchen before someone phones to say they'll be starting work next Thursday. Otherwise there will be panic and mayhem around here. I always find that a prominent list which allows me to mark things off as they are achieved really motivates me to get things done. Does anyone else have that mentality???

Happy the flowers are beautiful, I love them. I have combined them in a shallow bowl with some pink roses and they now reside on the coffee table. The perfume is delicious. Yes some orchids do have perfume and these particular roses have a warm honey spicy fragrance. If any one would like the picture to have as a screen saver then let me know and I will e-mail it over for you. I'm sending it to Mel soon. Hope you have a good time with the kitties. I'd like to see these little blankies you are about to make for them.

Annie - so sorry to hear how sick you have been. Rest up and get well soon. Who'd have thought about losing fat on the inside as well as the outside although I guess it figures.

Mel - I'll get that pic on the mail overnight, that way it may be easier for you to download and save to the computer. I'll try to make it as easy for you as possible.

Where are Carla, Ruth, Madcat, Holly???? Is this a Canadian form of isolation or protest or something. Are you all buried under drifts of cadbury??? Get out from under and let us know you are okay. Do I have to ring you or something???

Time to get off this chair and out into the beautiful world. The sun is shining, the birds are singing (Mel could hear them so she will vouch for that), and there is work to be done out there.

Oh yes must add, DS2 and I went out to breakfast yesterday. My shout I said and handed the woman $50 note. I got $44.10 back. I'm sure she said $25.90 for the two. I'm not a nice person. I didn't tell her of her mistake. The tills these days tell them how much change to give for heavens sake, why should I worry if she can't read or count. I'm outa here.

I hope everyone is enjoying Easter! DH and I had no special plans...just doing stuff around the house. Friday we got approx. 14" of snow at our house, so Saturday DH spent a couple hours digging us out so I could get to the gym. I didn't go on Friday night because the roads were too trecherous. I did a short workout today, and will be going to the gym tomorrow as I'm meeting with my coach/personal trainer (a free service to members provided by my local Y). Today is Day 7 of the 100 days, I'll read today's lesson and do the homework tonight. I stopped by my local Humane Society yesterday to donate some dog treats and rawhides that my dogs don't particularly care for. I also took the opportunity to pet the doggies and kitties. (Thanks for the inspiration to do this, Happy). There were some mighty cute dogs and cats, and if we didn't already have a houseful, I would've brought a couple home.

Rennie - I've got fair skin and sunburn easily, so I don't go out in the sun without a hat and lots of sunscreen. Even when I was younger...I always used sunscreen. It only took a couple really bad blistering sunburns for me to learn that lesson. And, like you, people think I look much younger than I am. I still sometimes get carded to buy alcohol - which puts me right on :cloud9: !

Shad - I can just picture you bashing your cupboards! That sounds like a lot of fun actually!! I hope your foot feels better. The photo of the orchid is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for posting it!

Nae - How wonderful to see elk out your window! We live near lakes and farms, so we see deer, wild turkeys, and other wildlife. No elk or bison though.

Happy - That's so cool that you have a herd of bison near you! We have some bison farms nearby....but it's so much more breathtaking to see them in the wild.

Mel - Sorry to hear about Jen. I hope she's starting to feel a little better and that you enjoyed your jammies and DVDs weekend. We've also had some nice sunshine this weekend and it's felt warmer than the 35 to 40 degree temperature.

Annie - My gosh! My prayers are certainly with you and your family. I'm glad you're doing better after your surgery. And I wish you DD and DS all the best with their healing.

I have to take dinner off the stove, so I'll come back later to finish checking in.

Love and big hugs to you all!

I'm here.

It's been a busy, joyful weekend. We had Good Friday dinner at my sister's. Grandma made it out. We had a BC salmon with a lemon butter dill sauce. Baby carrots, new potatoes and asparagus and light lemon cookies for dessert. My parents stayed the night there and babysat my 2 kids and nephew and DBIL and Sis and I went out to the pub to see a heavy metal band/ friends of ours.
Didn't drink too much but was out til 2am. There is something so good about being in the middle of a mosh pit listening to a hard core band.It is good for my soul. Had a very busy and profitable day at work. Sis came with me for the day for some spa treatment and then we headed back to her place and I retrieved my kids.Lots of running around before and after.
Last night was very quiet.
Today the kids and I woke with head colds. Been quiet again.
Got some housework done. Super yummy supper.Pot roast, taters, gravy , carrots and apple pie. Just having a tea.
Bath and hair cut night for the kids. DS wouldn't cut his hair til the end of playoffs. Did I tell tell they came in 2nd in their division. So a silver medal. He had 7 shut outs.

Still cold here but the sun has been out some. The snow is melting a bit.

Work is going well. Busy. Making some bucks finally. I am quite pleased at the prospect of not being dirt poor.

Happy, happy Easter. Much Love to the Chicks!!

Shad the orchids are beautiful


:happy easter:

Work has not been quiet today. The fire department called with two structure fires, that meant having to call two electrical guys to the scenes.
It was around lunch time too and there was asmall power outage about that time

Happy
I'd diffinately have to have a step ladderfor the 4 runner.

Annie
Sending good vibes your way for you and your children. Don't over do.

Mel
You are right about the sunshine being decieving. The ham sounds good, brown sugar, pineapple and cherries is how mom fixed ham. My mouth is watering. I also caught the footage of a house floating down the river of water. It smacked into a brdige. The bridge may need some repair after that attack. It's awesome what the force of water can do.

Pw. Candbury eggs are my favorite. I'll share some mini eggs with you. It's a good thing they only come once a year.

Michelle
Good for you for getting to day 7 of the 100 day plan. I haven't done well with my own plan.

Hello to the rest. I need to get my ear ready to go home in about 45 minutes.

Anybody want some ham? I have plenty left over. You can have the potato salad too. Well maybe you'll have to fight DH for that. I also tried making his aunt's age old recipe for baked beans. I found it in an old cookbook and by the handwriting style, I can tell that I wrote the recipe when I was in my teens. The beans had good flavor but came out too hard.

It's strange. I find that being used to eating lean chicken and fish and undressed vegetables, when I eat a meal like ham, potato salad and baked beans - I sure do feel yucky. I have a good 4 pounds of ham to do away with. Don't even want to do weigh in tomorrow. Will have to see if WW has any ham recipes :chin:

Still doing the 100 day thing after a minor bump in the road.

I was peeved today. I specifically called the Humane Society on Friday asking if they would be open on Sunday because that worked better for our plans. They said yes. So today DH and I head over there and it's closed. :mad: Poor kitties. Won't be able to get there until next weekend.

That was nice of you to give some time and items at the shelter Michelle. Those cute little faces sort of hook you in, don't they?

2 and a half hours LONG DISTANCE around the world with Mel and Shad? That beats our conversation. :lol: Shad must have figured out a good international phone plan. :lol:

Guess I can go read my book for a while and relax knowing the worldly chicks have straightened out things.

And yes, where is the Canadian contingent? Cadbury haze I suppose ;)

Easter weekend so far has been somewhat successful, starting with the usual Friday night spin class. There was a big basket of those nasty little foil-covered chocolatey Easter eggs at the desk, and of course my resolve faltered badly. :( And then there was the ham I'd taken out of the freezer that had to be cooked or tossed... and that made for a yummy, salty snack and a bad scale day on Saturday. But that was then, and the remains of the ham have now been given away. Tonight invited a friend for Easter dinner, and had delicious Châteaubriand with oven fries and steamed veg, followed by a rather light version of a fruit crisp. :drool: And gave the leftover crisp to him to take home!!! :encore: Major NSV for me, although I must admit I've been obsessing about fruit crisp ever since... Not a real diet day, but healthy and tasty. Who knew?

Today was Day 7 completed of the 100 Day plan. I can't say any day has been a total success, and perhaps any talk of perfection was a little premature... :rofl: But the plan isn't about perfection, it's about motivation and learning to be successful. I have a feeling it'll be worth it!

And with that, it's good night, sleep tight for this chick-let. :wave: to you all, will try to get back tomorrow for a post that isn't all about me, me, me!

No foolin'! You sound like YOUR laparoscopic intervention was no big deal... but surely rearranging your innards has got to have some consequences! So glad that you didn't develop any full blown obstruction. There's been a group of people with those issues... NOT pretty!

I'll keep my fingers crossed for your DD. Mine seemed to have some mysterious issues a while back (not living at home)... but all was well... even though it took more than one procedure.

Hope DS is as tough as he's advertised!

Hollyhock:
Please commend your DS on his shutouts. The local PRO's haven't done that well in the recent month. The Cup Finals may be short and bitter for us in Big D again.

The post all about you you you let me know that I must get out of DeNile and get honest and stop worrying about perfection. THANK YOU.

TTFN, ladies

How the heck do you Worldlies keep up and manage personals to all?

Annie, hoping for a speedy recovery - lapro sure beats incisions but still......

I would like to formally announce that I intend to be in the 180's by this time next week. I seem to be maintaining my post-op loss!

Different weekend! Went to Claire's place for a great Easter Dinner on Saturday night. Her strange sister Peggy was there - that always makes for interesting undercurrents. Although there are usually everyone's dogs there, Hershy stayed home as Calvin, Peggy's mutt, is a humper and Hersh will not tolerate that! She's such a Queen Victoria. We had fun and I was abstemious in my wine consumption. I realized this is the first evening out since before the knee thing. Yesterday I felt really rotten after Church and lay down on the bed about 10:30 - woke at one! I intended to visit Harry but spent the rest of the day reading and relaxing as I still felt strange. Everything seems OK today - AND I DID NOT EAT ANY EASTER CRUD, so there!

Today should be a "normal" day with a visit to Harry and the purge of my sewingroom continuing. My sister Joan has threatened to "tidy" it for me but I'd like some say in what gets pitched, saved or given to Goodwill. I need to get it done before she shows up in Suzie Homemaker mode.

Have a good week. I sure as heck hope spring shows up around here soon. I measured the snow in the yard and it's 18" deep where Hershey hasn't made her potty route paths! :(

ANNIE I AM SENDING EVERY GOOD THOUGHT I CAN FIND FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. WHAT A YEAR THIS IS TURNING OUT TO BE. YOU WILL ALL BE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND HEARTS. HOPE YOU WILL BE FEELING OK NOW. SORRY YOU'RE GOING THRU SO MUCH :hug: :hug:

HAPPY~ KITTY MATS :cloud9: HOW CUTE IS THAT. GOOD IDEA. MEAT IS OUTRAGEOUSLY EXPENSIVE. WHEN I LOOK AT THE PRICES OF BEEF I ALMOST :faint:. I SEE WOMEN THERE TRYING TO MAKE UP THEIR MINDS WHAT TO BUY!
WE SPENJT TIME TOGETHER BUT THE PLANS FOR DINNER FELL APART. I WOKE FEELING OK AND QUICKLY ENDED UP IN THE LOO. THERE WAS NO WAY I WAS GOING TO EAT ROASTED PORK!

MICHELLE~ ONLY PETTING IS ALLOWED....NO ADOPTING!!! 14" :yikes: HOPE THIS WILL BE THE END OF THE BIG DUMPS FROM THE SKY GODS FOR THE YEAR. HOPE YOU ARE LIKING THE BOOK ALSO! I AM LOVING THE LESSONS AND ACTUALLY FEEL BETTER.

CEEJAY~ GUESS THE WARMER WEATHER WILL KEEP EVERYONE BUSY WITH OUTAGES BETWEEN WEATHER AND OVER USE WHEN IT GETS HOT. NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT HOW ALL THAT AND FIRES COULD EFFECT YOUR JOB. WE LEARN SOMETHING EVERY DAY. JEN AND I AGREED...THAT BRIDGE PICTURE WAS MOTHER NATURE AT HER SCARIEST!

CARLA~ I TOLD SHAD THE SAME AS WELL. I FEEL THIS IS THE RIGHT BOOK AS IT'S FULL OF SENSIBLE IDEAS AND PRACTICAL LESSONS. WE WILL OBTAIN PERFECTION!! :dance: I CAN SEE ONLY ONE AREA WHERE I WILL HAVE TO BE CAREFUL: NOT USING THE "WIDER ROAD" AS AN EXCUSE TO GO NUTS OR AS A CONTINUAL EXCUSE.:faint: NICE OF NYOU TO SEND THE CRISP HOME WITH A FRIEND BUT I THOUGHT OUT OF SIGHT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUT OF MIND? NO? :rofl


PW~ ACTUALLY THE WORLDLY CHICKS ARE PERFECTION IN ITSELF THAT WE KNOW WE AREN'T PERFECT :lol3: :lol3:

AS I SIT HERE I AM WONDERING IF HAPPY HAS ALREADY POSTED! :wave: THE DESTRUCTOS BEHIND ME ARE EXCEPTIONALLY NOISY TODAY AND GETTING NEAR EYE LEVEL WITH ME ON THE 2ND FLOOR. I WILL BE HANDING OUT TOASTED ENGLISH MUFFINS WITH MARMALADE AND POTS OF COFFEE TO THEM SOON! I TOLD MYSELF THAT FOR EASTER I COULD HAVE SOME SMALL EGGS AND THE EARS OFF A BUNNY. WELL...I ATE THE EARS AND NOT LONG AFTER THAT I SPENT THE LAFTERNOON RUNNING BACK AND FORTH TO THE LOO. LET US SAY GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS :rofl: :rofl: I COULD THINK OF NO OTHER REASON. BUT ALL THE LAUGHS WITH NSHAD MADE THE DAY WORTHWHILE. JEN EVEN FELT BEWTTER TOO AFTER I REPEATED THE STORIES. IT'S NICE TO KNOW OUR SENSES OF HUMOR ARE STILL INTACT! :lol3: :lol3: I AM KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED FOR YOUR CHRIS...HOPE THE MOVE HOME WILL BE A GOOD ONE AND SHE CAN FIND THE MEDICO SUPPORT AT HOME AS WELL. :hug:
JEN AND RICHIE TOOK ALL THE FOOD TO DADS BUT CAME HOME EARLY. FIRST HOLIDAY WITHOUT THE MOMS AND SADNESS PREVAILED. IT WAS EXPECTED. ALL OF US FELT BETTER BY BEDTIME. THE SUN IS SHINING AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD WEEK!
