Fool Cows
 

Hi
I had to get up at the crack of dawn to get DD's hair ready for the first performance of Copacabana!!!!. We're not real excited because:
1. Due to her surgery...dd was not cleared to dance until after good parts were cast..so she's an extra who carries the singing...she was devastated at first but in the end...she had fun.
2. The play is terrible.

We are having the Cast and Crew party here. Do you think they'll ruin my house? Do you think it will be clean in time?

Gotta go...Gotta go to the gym!

All I want to do is eat chocolate...
 

...or anything, for that matter. Can't stop. Must be hormones. Also failing miserably in exercise department. Let's face it, I'm a slob. Can you tell I hardly slept last night? Cranky, cranky, cranky. But not as cranky as I'd be if I had to deal with Lush's cast party and Peachy's ediot.

I'm posting and I'm cranky and resentful. Does that get double points????? I'm cranky just because and I'm resentful because DH has been occasionally slipping out from work on nice afternoons and going off fishing, while I can never sneak out of work, or even have time for doctor appointments and such because I'm the only one here in the d*mn office and it's springtime and I want to be out in the sunshine. Then there is the resentment because on the weekends I have to do stuff like laundry and housecleaning when I'd like to be out working in the yard and when I do work in the yard, then I still have housework and dinner to make and dishes to do and I'm just sick of it.

Lush, I'm devastated that you've been posting your list elsewhere.

Peaches, ignore the ediot. Have you noticed how ediots come and go, but Peaches endures?

Hi Sugar, my sister in sloth. My house is a sty, my laundry overflows, and I have a really bad attitude.

Kiwi, what's cookin'?

WHERE THE **** IS THE BOSS AND WHY DO WE HAVE TO WRITE TO HIM???? IS HE COMING BACK??? :mad: :mad: I helped cater the cast and crew party for THe Music Man-------we had it in the cafeteria at the school so the JANITORS had to clean up the mess afterwards!!!! i decorated a giant slab cake and had different people bring different things---- i ordered a cheese tray,a veggie tray and a fruit tray from the grocery store and people brought in all kinds of goodies----The cast and crew numbered over fifty ---HOW MANY FOR YOU LUSHBATT?????PEACHBAT!!!--- this ediot is a serious idiot making complaints and not addressing his concerns with the people involved-------WHAT A BUNCH OR ARSSSEEES!!!!!!!!IGNORE THEM AND KEEP ON DOIN WHAT YOU WERE DOIN------WABBY---IT'S NICE ENOUGH HERE TO START SOME PRELIMINARY GARDNEN CLEAN UP!!! I AM PLANTING FOR THE GREENHOUSE VERY SOON---HAVE TO KEEP IT ALL IN THE HOUSE TIL IT WARMS UP AT NIGHT THOUGH------

I wasn't cranky before, but when I found out I wouldn't get as many points for posting while happy, I GOT cranky! How many points? I love getting points. :dizzy:
Have lotsa new plants to plant, :flow1: but gotta rush and get unsweaty to meet a friend for a meal and a meeting.
DH is home, which is cool.

I am so tired of being fat AND suffering. :sumo: Can you get thin without suffering? Does anybody here know how? Jeez. Now I'm cranky AND having a pity party.
Gotta run :tread: :rofl:

Painty, what kind of plants do you have? I told DH I was going crazy today if I didn't get out, so I left work and went to a couple nurseries. I bought 2 Salvia "May Night" (already have one and they bloom all summer the prettiest cobalt blue) and a Shasta Daisy "Becky" (can't believe I'd actually buy one, but it's supposed to be a superior variety to regular SD's. I also bought a Penstemon "Sour Grapes" to replace one that froze out this winter. Also a couple 6 packs of Ice Crystal Alyssum and Hot pink wave petunias. Tomorrow my favorite place has 4" perennials on sale for 99 cents. I plan on sneaking out for that, too. :devil:

Bagzie, what are you planning on starting in the greenhouse? Do you ever grow nicotiana sylvestris? If you don't you should. They are beautiful and smell heavenly. And they get huge. Like 6 ft. This says 4-5 ft., but mine get at least 6 ft. They're annual, but usually they winter over here. Not this year, though, we had a cold winter.

This is what they look like - http://www.seedsofchange.com/garden_...item_no=S11054

I don't have anything to say, but I want some points...so I'm posting.

Dd's party will be about 50...give or take.

Here is a funny story...particularly since it is at the expense of one of my sils. Last weekend a neighbor of FIL's was taken out of her house by ambulance. SIL (aka The Expert) insisted that the only way that they take someone out in the manner this woman was taken out is when she is dead. Sil was SO certain and is such a suck up about sending cards that she immediately sent a sympathy card to the family...HA>HA>HA.
Justice for the fakey thoughtful.

Peaches, is your ediot bothering you again????? How do these people rise????? Is it because they have no shame? I keep wanting to think that there is a reward for operating on merit...but I wonder sometimes.
Maybe we should get a doll and stick pins in it. It seems the only possibility of winning with that kind of person.

I want a pretty garden. Where do you guys find the time?

My new cleaning group is all from the mid-west. Not from Cherry's or Bob Dylan's midwest....from that 'other' midwest. I don't think I'll be leaving here for there any time soon. HOWEVER, they are quite inspiring on the cleaning and discipline front. I've been persuaded to organize my finances, too. I'm seeing perfect 2005 on the horizon.

Kiwi, You're little exercising smiles are inspiring. I walked around the block(1.2 miles) this week and I did stretches a few times....but then I fizzled out.

Sugar, I feel your pain. I don't like chocolate...but I love twizzlers. And swedish fish. I've been off sugar for a while. I miss it...but I feel so much better without it.

I'm a drag and a bore..so I'm leaving. Have a fun night eveyrone...L

I'm watching the Apprentice.

I'm so tired. I'm still exercising. Still fat. What else is new.

Lushie, your new group sounds interesting.

I'm reading "No Logo" by Naomi Klein. Very good book.

I had a ladies meeting... missed Apprentice. Who is left? anybody?

Cowie... :moo: THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME WIN. Nobody's ever let me win just because I wanted to. What a treat. :flow2: It's making me smile. :queen: THANK YOU.
Wabby.. I'll get the list of wonderful plant names tomorrow. I do believe I got JUNGLE PRINCESS daylilies, though.. and Lavender Attraction. I don't have any of the blue Salvia (wish I did... but a friend gave me some last year called :chicken: Cockscomb I think: FIRE ENGINE RED BLOOMS.... and the plants are bigger now than they were ALL LAST YEAR. Too wild. Mostly I have a little sun garden with pansies and California Poppies and lavendar scabiosa and really violet verbena... along with Spanish lavendar, Mexican heather, and a pretty pinkish/lavender rock rose.

More monikers and a photo tomorrow. Thanks again. Wow... I can be a loser AND a winner! :goodvibes

Kiwi--any dirt you have that isn't clay would be much appreciated. We actually went and BOUGHT dirt yesterday. Photos coming later. You may send funereal wreaths to me... as I got honest and revised my signature. I'm back at @#$%^ing square one. I may be a jewel... but I sure feel flawed. :(

Lush, you should get some kinda points for entertaining 50 kids. I have time to work in my yard because I no longer am entertaining kids, and I no longer have to drive kids to their activities. Driving takes up most of a lifetime if I remember right.

Painty, I've been back at square one too many times to remember. Success to me means that we keep trying. That definitely counts for points, even more than crankiness.

I love twizzlers too. And Sugar Babies. I loooove Sugar Babies.

WHAT ARE SUGAR BABIES??? I LOVE BRIDGE MIXTURE,CHICKEN BONES AND PALOMINES-----AND chips and margueritassssss--------------is this friday??? OOPS ---GOTTA GO!!!!!!

Oh Yeah------i Just Bought Three Packages Of Easter Peeps===they Are Shaped Liked
Eggs With Sprinkles And Say They Are Vanilla Flavoured

That's my excuse for getting nothing at all done, anyway.

Our roof is pouring in again. Ah, spring. :flow1:

Kiwi

I still don't know what chicken bones are.

I like the new mint-flavored Hershey's kisses that you can only get at Christmas.

I want to try the new caramel filled Hershey kisses.

Palomines? what are these? am I missing something yummy? Sugar Babies are caramelly, brown sugary, mmmmmmm.

Are you sure it isn't evil to be talking about Easter Candy during Lent? And around people who are trying to get skinny... or at least less @#$%^&* fat? :devil:

Palm Sunday
 

yes,i must get out to mass to get me palms!!!but GOD FORBID i watch a hockey game on TV or see a Movie-----have you heard the Pope's latest edict???Does anyone else think he is losing it??? the man does not live in the real world---he is not going to get any more followers with that attitude!!!okay Wabby--we have a candy factory up the road a bit called GANONGS---They make Chicken Bones and Palomines------the chicken bones are pink hard candy with a cinnamon flavour and the centre is chocolate!!! the palomines are chocolate bars---they have a fudgey centre with a chocolate covering and a few nuts as well-----Very lovely i must say------They sell the palomines in Kiwi's state,so she may know of which i speak!!!!-----Cherry----you like Canadian things---you must like these confections!!!!!----Painty----Easter Candy is a vice we must deal with ---i treat it like hallowe'en---i know i am not going to do without so i just eat my way through and hope for the best!!!! :p :p :p :p

KIWONKERS!!!--- how great for your daughter!!! i wish you could send my a sound clip of her singing My Immortal----i adore that song!!! GOOD FOR your BABY!!!!i am making a maple glazed pork roast for supper----------it's maple sugaring time around here!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhh!
 

Severe case of PMS going on here. Large amounts of chocolate being consumed willy nilly. Have been alternately yelling at and apologizing to loved ones all day. Must go find margie recipe to help me through this difficult time.

So forget about me:WHERE'S FRAPPE??? Are you OK, darling?

It's been 10 days since Frappe's last post. Do we need to worry????

Kiwi, your DD must make you soooo proud. Good for her.

Chocolate consumed willy nilly? Sugar, is there any other way!!!? Don't apologize too much. Difficult women go so much further in life. Besides, the DH probably deserves it, and the DS's need the practice for future relationships.

Bagz, you're going to love this
 

xxxxxxxxx
soooooooooooooooooooooooooo

i am so tired of not being able to work this message thingy---i can only do ONE thing at a time---size or color or font----i don't know how to work them together-----WHAT is wrong with me????????Kiwi is the only one who can explain it-----how can i find your post explaining it!!!!hahahahaanyway----for the pork roast---you brown it on all sides in oil and then you add a third cup of maple SYRUP to the pan after you take out the roast {get rid of the oil} add a dash of cayenne,a dash of cinnamon and heat it for about thirty seconds ---until it all bubble up--------------and stick the roast back in the pan and swish it all over with the maple syrup---------------put the roast in a roaster pan and pour the syrup over it=====roast at 325 and every now and then swish the roast around in the syrup------------probably no different than glazing a ham==============it was very tasty===my favourite magazine is Cooks Illustrated---------------very informative ---they have a website as wellwww.cooksillustrated.comKIWI I LOVED THE CARTOON WITH MY LITTLE PEEPERS!!!!! :dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy:

Proud to Be Canadian
 

I'm trying Bagzie's Maple Syrup Method with chicken legs tonight since I don't have a pork roast handy.

You will all please notice that I DID exercise today after about 10 days o' nothing. What a slob.

Here's a big hug, Painty!
