Yep, we're all nuts. I have an apple orchard too. Well, not really, I have half a dozen neglected old apple trees. Maybe it's DH! Nah, you'd recognize him.
You guys are really on a tear today. I can't tell you what my thighs look like -- I don't look at them! They get washed, dried and clothed and I can do all that without looking at them, so of course I do, since I'm not such a glutton for punishment! So I guess my thighs look like denim hams.
You're safe here, Sugar. Stevie won't read about yer jiggly jiglets.
Brattie, the best thing about these custom swimsuits is that they are cheeeeeep! This sweet little lady makes them for $15, including all material! They look just like a Jantzen swimsuit (duh, she works for them). She will have them ready in a week.
We have apple trees, Kiwi, but DH always prunes them to within an inch of there lives every year. I cringe when he does it, but they always leaf out and are beautiful by June. Not too many apples, though, which is ok by me, because when you have apples they drop on the lawn and make a yellow jacket swarming mess.
The realtor called back to say the other ppl have withdrawn their offer on our dream property, so we're back to looking at it again. Maybe I'll become a land baron after all. With a very old shacky house.
tomorrow herbie is taking MY CAR so he can sell it and get anothr car for me. Yes, that Herbie! We will let him act out his guilt trips and we won't even bother being nice if it's any trouble. We are sick of men
hurrah for that honker,HERBIVORE!!!!! you deserve to have a nice CAR---MAKE SURE YOU DRIVE BY HIS HOUSE WITH YOUR NEW MEN AND HONK THE HORN!!!!-----by the way---the body parts described by you tanks---DENIM HAMS!!!!---cottage cheese AND jello----ROFLAMAO{?????} ISN'T THAT SUPPOSED TO BE LAUGHING ME ARSE OFF??????------make LUsh talk about her sausaging herself into her jeans!!! off to get a margie------brattie---i pick u p my niece from school everyday with my other niece and my son---they hang around til supper time!! they are sweet and sometimes bratty!!!!
I am wearing a size 14 today. That means I am barely able to breath, but that is ok, isn't it? I did lose weight about a year ago, it was my stress weight. Now that my life is semi-peaceful without people dying right and left, I've settled into simply pudge. I'm not as upset about being a pudge as I used to be. I know that isn't good. I'm also not as upset about my house being a mess as I used to be. Of course, it isn' t as bad because my kids are older and they help with chores. But no matter how you look at it, I've settled.
Wabby, will your fil stay where he is, or will he come with you? I hope you get your place. We can have the Bovine Jamboree there. Imagine all of us having to pitch circus tents to hold our big butts.
Wabby, I am sure Steve will love you even with a jiggle here and there.
Bagzie, have you noticed how NICE everyone here has become? Maybe they have passed their "time of life" I am still cranky as can be.
I have to go to soccer now.
XXOO
Wabby and Stevie are going on the cruise together?? The nerve! No wonder she's getting a custom made swim suit.
Wabby - gosh, never even thought that Stevie could possibly be reading this (he's not a fat chick, but his wife might be. Oh oh.) The last time he saw my thighs (discreetly covered, of course) was in 1985 so it would be *quite* the shock!
What kind of car you getting, Peachy? I'm getting a new one too, but in our house "new" doesn't necessarily mean new. See, dh's best friends 20 yr old niece, who is a student nurse, was driving home from night shift one morning, got blinded by the rising sun and side-swiped a large garbage container that was sticking out into the street. She got a concussion (and made a full recovery, poor thing) and the car had the passenger door and fender ripped off and the wheel went all wonky. Sooo, dh bought the car from nurse's daddy (who is also our travel agent. What a tangled web we weave.) for peanuts, bought a new (ok, used) door and fender and axel and now it just needs a coat of paint to be brand new. Sort of. It's a Renault Twingo which will mean absolutely nothing at all to you, but it's French and really cute.
I'm so boring all I can talk about is myself. I'll be back when I'm able to make sprightly conversation.
I delivered ds to the boyscout people so he could go canoeing and overnight camping THEN
I went to stupid Herbie's house because I was supposed to meet him but he never where. I hated being in his house. HATED IT. He stuff all packed up for including stuff that isn't mine. I ignored it all AND
he finally called to ask me to meet him at The Place on the Lake. I went there. He finally showed up. So did one of his employees. We swapped cars and I took the employee back to the broken down piece of equipment he was stuck working on.
Sugar, the man who lives near Kiwi is a Steve. Are are all involved with the same guy? I say let Wabby have him because a good scandal would liven things up here.
OK I am so lost here now! Is there more than one here dating Steve? I would love to be a 14 so do not wine about that. I think men suck when they become exs. I think exs new wives suck also. OK I am sick with a cold and grumpy and headachey and tired and waawaawaa... I know shud up n go to bed huh? Love ya all, Brattie
Sissy, you should appreciate that I am back. Gifts are in order.
Brattie, everyone has dated Steve at one point or another. We all met him on the internet and he works for an airline, so he has taken each of us out when he's been in our home cities. Steve used to come by at our last forum, but they went out of business. I think the Justice Department was investigating and it go too expensive to mount a defense against their charges.
I think he still does come around here. Just to hear Sugar describe her rolls in excruciating detail.
Wabby's DH has been known to carry a gun, so he's only met her at her yearly excursion to the Flower Show. Kiwi met him in a church. Peaches has always been too busy with Herbie to get to know Steve, but now she is free, so she's giving him a whirl.
I have a headache. Sinus.
bye
Location: I'm a resident of the world but I make my home right down the road from Sweet Briar.

Horrors!
Marcella just called in a panic about the possibility that one of ours would call a man. She is too upset to write herself. It was her delicate upbringing. Her Mama would have lashed her if she would have so much as looked man directly in the eye before he bought her a significant piece of jewelry. Having grown up on a horse farm, I understand life a little better than she. At Sweet Briar, the sisters used to have quite a laugh at Marcella's expense by pretending to answer the door for their own dates. Can you imagine? A ZTA greeting a date without making an entrance! It was just too funny. Marcella would get all upset, then laugh in the end when she realized that we'd fooled her again. Oh the good times we had.
I also had a fling with Steve. He always called me and he bought me numerous presents; most notably a lovely Cartier watch which I gave to my cleaning lady for Christmas.
How are your fitness aspirations? I had quite a difficult summer. As you may know, they changed the formula of Ex-Lax. I have Ex-Lax for dessert every night, so the change was quite upsetting to my system. At first, the new formula did not agree with my syrup of ipecac, but now everything has worked out. I didn't actually gain weight but I felt bloated for a few days. It was awful.
The holidays are coming and Marcella and I are off to Paris to shop. She is at a spa until the first of November. It is just for rest, she assures me that she does not need to lose any weight. I am sure that she is only wearing size twos because zeros are so hard to find, though I always manage.
If LETTY knew how cheered up I am to see her, she'd never leave. That skinny little horse's patootie!
I'm going to you all something braggie and stupid but I want you to see that I am actually accomplishing something sort-of.
I'm taking this online writing class, as you know if you're smart, and we all have to turn in stories. The teacher SAID that my story was better than any he'd read anywhere in a long time. Now, he was kind of mean to other people if you think saying "I have so many complaints about this I don't know where to start" is mean.
Peachie, of course your instructor liked your story better than all the others! You're very talented at writing stories!
I don't have much to say. I just spent 10 days overhauling my (personal) website during every waking moment. Thank goodness that's done. I haven't exercised in days. I'm going back to the Firm. It's the only thing that has worked for me in the past five years.
I'm STILL 182.
Hi to Bagzie, Lushie, Kiwi, Wabbit, Sugar P, Brattie, Skinny Frappe, and Letty and Marcella.
