I forgot to say Cherie that is so sweet and thoughtful of you to give Steven your gift certificate. You are really in the season of giving. That is also great news about his tumor getting smaller. Have fun this weekend. Julie
ps Noelle I totally agree !
Better get dinner going, having salmon and potatoes and coleslaw. And whatever else ends up on my plate. Haha
Happy Saturday ladies. I'm scrub-a-dubbing the bathroom down today (my sis that's gone on vacation is usually the one who cleans it) and doing all the laundry...in the middle of all of this Michael has his last swimming lesson for this Fall session. I don't think he's ready to take the test but I can always enroll him in the same class again in the spring. We went to see the Sponge Bob movie last night . You have to be a fan of the show (which I sort of am, I admit it) to sit through it.
Summer, happy belated birthday I meant to come back and post yesterday but I never got a chance to. A negative test is a wonderful gift!!! I'm so relieved and happy for you.
Cherie, I'm glad for Steven's progress w/treatment . Enjoy your weekend
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my husband? NO...Well, I do!!! He is so sweet!!!! I have been talking nonstop about this exercise bike that I wanted well today he made me show him which one it was and tried to buy it for me for Christmas. I said no because I have been sneaking money for a surprise snowmobile fund for him. Well, we were leaving and he showed me that he has saved $650.00 for my Christmas present that I didnt know about. So...He got me a new recumbent bike for Christmas!!! It is awesome. It has weights built into it plus a fan built on etc. I love it.
How has everyones Saturday been? Good I hope.
Noelle, Spongebob? Okay dokay!!! Brittany loves him too!!! smooch smooch.
I have been having some problems with my computer since Wed. My sis is here from Calif (Noelle, you remember Bert) and she's going to help me clean this thing up a bit and get rid of the problems.
Summer: Happy belated Birthday.
Angie: What a wonderful gift from such a sweet man.
Noelle: Ashley repeated her class in swimming lessons also. She did so much better the second time around.
School's still busy. We have 2 1/2 days this next week. I can't wait for the long weekend and the shopping on Friday.
Jacks: Welcome back!!
Hello to everyone else. Enjoy your weekend. I'm going to try to fix this computer so I can come and post more often.
Cal, Have fun with your sis. Jay said after he bought it that he didnt know if he should get it or not because he wanted to make sure it is what I really wanted first. He said he didnt want to look like the guy that says I need to lose weight.
It is snowing outside right now. I had to shove Mickey outside. I guess he isnt a snow puppy!!
Good morning ladies. It's a cool 67 degrees Michael did pass all his requirements for his Level 1 swimming lessons yesterday but I still plan on enrolling him for Lev. 2 in January, the classes are free from the City. Can't beat that. We went to the new Wal-Mart/Sam's Club complex afterward. I finally bought a Christmas gift (for someone else) . I found a 4-pack of Gameboy games at Sam's Club for $48 for Michael. It comes in a neat square box with the games on each side. They also have single games for around $13.
Cal, (Hi Bert ) hope all goes well with your computer. When Bert's done, can she fly over and fix mine? I think I'm going to have to take my CPU over to my friend's place rather than have him come out to my office. His business is booming and I don't see him as often.
Angie, Jay is a great guy for getting you what you wanted. I can imagine he'd be dead meat if you didn't really want it though . Enjoy your Sunday.
Well I don't know what's on tap for today but I should get my butt moving. Have a great day everyone.
Angie that is so sweet of Jay to buy you that gift, and sweet of you to purchase him a snowmobile. Are you going shopping on the day after Thanksgiving to catch some sales? Usually we pick up something for the kids at a great price on that day. I will have to check the adds!
Noelle I am glad you and Michael enjoyed the movie. Gosh I just love movie popcorn. Yum, did you give in and have some? I can not resist the minute I walk in the theatre. Great job on the little guy passing his swimming lessons! I hope your week is not to busy.
Cherie this Wednesday don't forget. The finale of the Bachelor!! I am so looking foward to it. I think that they may have their update on right after. How was your weekend with Alan?
Well girls gotta go. What are everyone's plans for this Thursday? My plans are not really set yet. But I know I will be eating, lol. I did make a turkey this weekend and a homemade pumpkin pie this weekend. It was really good. Julie
Hi!!!! I had to go shopping this morning or I would have posted sooner. I am supposed to be working so you guys know your more important than work!@!!
Julie, Yes I would like to get the air hockey table that is on sale at Walmart for them on Friday. We also would like to get some paintball guns for us all and we can go play with them in my FIL gravel pit next summer. That would be so much fun. I am not sure we will get the guns just yet but I would like to.
Not much happening here. Brittany left today to babysit my niece for a few days so I was looking for some alone time with Jay and we get back from shopping and MIL had dropped the twins off at home. shoot!!!
Did anyone watch the Stepford Wives? I thought that was so funny. When the robot dog fell down the steps he looked just like a cat I had when I was young. His name was Spazz. He was born with a deformed knee and couldnt bend one leg so he would run down the steps and fall on the last one. He was so sweet. I loved the opart with Bette Midler and the pinecone!!!!
Whats for dinner everyone? Here it might be two bean enchiladas or maybe chili or grilled pork steak or chicken salads. So many choices. I just wish I was rich enough to have a personal chef to come and plan and cook every night. Lucky I have a husband who loves to cook. And he is really good about scrubbing out the pots and pans. I guess I am pretty lucky to have a guy to do stuff like that.
Angie your kids and you and Jay will love the air hockey table. My mom has one and I love to play it. Your paint ball idea sounds neat too. I have never done it, but my brother has. Make sure you wear protective gear though, it hurts to get hit I guess. He had some bruises from it if I can remember. But I can imagine him and his friends getting pretty crazy doing it .
Hey all. It's definitely a busy week being so short and all but I wanted to pop in and say hi. We got a call from my cousin in CA yesterday, my uncle (my mom's brother) passed away yesterday afternoon. He was 81 and suffering from emphysema (sp?). My aunt who is blind will probably have to move in with one of her two sons. The cousin that called himself was just recently diagnosed w/a form of cancer, and he's only 43. The prognosis doesn't look good for him either, but they will try to treat him as best as they can. *sigh* This weekend was kind of a bummer because of all this news but all I can do is pray and offer comfort to my aunt and cousins. My parents may be heading out to CA this week, I hope after Thanksgiving though. Rick will be making his first attempt at cooking the turkey (what can I say? We've always eaten at one of our mom's places ). I'm hoping for a brighter day today even though our weather forecast calls for more thunderstorms thru Thanksgiving...anyway, sorry for the doom and gloom.
Angie, I will go and rent that movie next (maybe this afternoon? ). I need a little comedy. Rick would love to buy an air hockey table but I have no idea where we would put it. My 22 y.o. nephew is a paintball fanatic, he even travels around the mainland for tournaments . I think he'd like to be a professional paintballer. I've never tried it myself but I heard it hurts when you get hit
Julie, of course I ate the popcorn Hey! Good job on the cardio It's more than I did. Has your DS been coming home w/cute little art projects like turkeys and pilgrim hats and stuff? I just found a million broken pieces of a macaroni necklace in the backseat of my car today
Hello to Summer, Kempy, Cal, Cherie,Jacks, Gen and anyone else I may have missed. Gotta get back to work.

Good Morning!!!! What happened to everyone yesterday? Come out and play!!! Is everyone busy with the holiday?
I am getting up early tomorrow to do my baking. I am making pecan sticky buns for Jay and the kids for breakfast, than I have to make a turtle cheesecake and pumpkin parfaits. I may make a small cheesecake for my sister if I have the time.
The vets are also coming over tomorrow to do the shots for the dogs and cats so hopefully that will be all done. Domino, the stray cat stayed in last night. He is a huge cuddlebug.
Noelle, I am sending good thoughts for your family. I am so sorry about your aunt.
