Just a quick pop-in...

The twins and I had lots of fun in the yard yesterday! Right outside of their little garden area is grass with a bazillion dandelions that they think are so pretty, lol. Mary and I each have a bowlful that they picked for us! The kindergartener will be planting her zinnias today, lol. I've got to get going - gonna stop by Maggie's and Walmart before I pick up Mackenzie and have too much to do before I even leave!

Have a good day!!

PS Angie - I'll send you the book but don't need it back. I hope you like it as much as I did! I got a little hair dye on the edge of the pages, but it's dry now (duh!). A beautuful L'Oreal Medium Ash Brown, dahling, lol.

Here they are.... Madison in the foreground, and Makenzie (JJ) in the back.

Good Morning!


Wow i am tired this morning! Having a hard time waking up! Well i got a little cleaning done yesterday.. today i will try to tackle the mountain of laundry!

Angie: Wow i have no idea where you could find limbs.. i would give you mine but they are still attached.. and maybe a little too big!:lol: I think you have your work cut out for you!

Katy: We finally got a new water cooler so i can get back to chugging my water. I dont drink nearly as much as i should. Probably dehydrated most of the time! My abs are what bother me the most... i wouldnt mind if the rest of my body stayed how it is if i could have a flat stomach... you got to love those people who are like when are you due? I am like due for what am i supposed to be somewhere sheesh.. that is why i never ask someone... i wait for them to tell me.. I heard a comedian say that onetime... never ask a woman if she is pregnant until you see the baby crowning lol.

Anita: I am so glad you had a perfect day with your baby! So special! before we had kids who knew that we would find pleasure in the smallest things! Today i was so excited when emma sat on her potty! She is only 20 months, so i am not training her.. i am just getting her used to the potty. At first she wouldnt go near it and now she will sit on it beside me when i go to the washroom... so cute!

Marti: How strange that we all had babies at the same time. Just goes to show we have a lot in common! I was lucky, i had finished my highschool before i got pregnant. I was in my first year of college.. my mother wasnt happy about that! But what can you do. She dealt with it. It was more disapointment for her then angry.

Susan: I am not fond of the male species right now either... don't know if i will ever be. And like i said i am not into women so it looks to be a lonely life LOL thank goodness for the kids!

Mindee: It is a hard thing to discipline.. but i have been watching supernanny and learning some tricks.. She would die if she saw some of the things my kids get away with.

Cristi: I love scary movies.. most of the time i can't watch but at teh same time i can't not watch. For all you scary movie buffs i suggest the movie Saw. That was a good one! I can't wait to see the Amityville Horror since it is based on a true story! With the nightmares i have every night i dont know why i put myself through that!

Jane: WEll i am not having any more kids so i wont know the older mom thing. but i think that is just as well. I barely have energy now. Well i try to have a good relationship but his father is such an ^%$&#*!@ sometimes! His girlfriend is a little older and mature so i get along with her fine. She even brought me a toddler bed for the baby on friday!

well hello to everyone else hope to see you back soon! Not too much planned for today, like i said there is always laundry. Rained last night and cloudy so probably wont get out today. TTFN xxoo

Aww Jane i missed you again.. They are adorable!!!!!!

Good morning all~

Angie~yes, I am feeling better, well as far as the stomach what-ever it was I had over the weekend goes. Now just dealing with the pains of TOM! Man, I swear, miss a month, have an easy one after that and the next one makes up for it. How naughty a saying do you want?

Marti~I love the tiger lilies, so pretty. Of course I like them all and there are so many kinds! I haven't done any scrapbooking in ages, really need to get back to doing that some day soon.

Katy~I do hate being bedridden and being sick. I hate not being able to do anything but sleep. Although that sleep did make me feel better.

Anita~the BD party sounded fun! I love seeing things through a childs eyes.

Jane~the picture of the twins is adorable-thye are getting so big, love their flowers. The kids when they were small used to pick dandelions for me too-they too thought they were so pretty.

Terri~I did see Saw and I liked it, except for the ending. How mad would you be? I don't want to say much more in case someone hasn't seen it. I LOVE scary movies!

Susan~sorry you are pms'ing. :grouphug: And hope Rachel is fine, (((((HUGS))))) to her. Just the mention of the word spine scares me. I think you guys will get things worked out, you and Rocky that is. Of course I think he should be doing a little compromising hisself.

Mindee~man, that is quite a wait to see the doc. Are you guys getting excited about Brandon's BD? For some reason I was thinking it was the 14th. :shrug:

Hi to everyone else :wave:

Managed to get caught up on laundry yesterday. Also, changed the bedding and cleaned a little. Didn't get as much cleaning done as I would have liked to. Oh well, it will be there tomorrow for me. The house isn't dirty but does need to vacuumed. Had to be up early this morning to get DD to the doc, her ears have been bothering her. Looks like she has a little bit of fluid in the one but other than that she is fine. Think we will stick with this doc, she seems to be fine and she is very nice and friendly. The other one we had was kind of intimidating. Anyway, getting ready to head to the show since she is home. Then will get back about the time V will be getting home and going to go to the foot doc with him. Of course we will probably eat out since it will be late by the time we get out of there and got home, forgot to take the roast out yesterday-was going to crock pot it. Anyway, gotta get going.

Hope everyone has a nice day! :wave:

Very happy you are back posting Cristi!! :)

Cute pic Jane of the girls!

Lets go out for a margarita and dish men Terri - lol

Rach is fine, pulled muscle.She had a hicky on her neck and the doctor questioned her on that - thinking she was in a fight with her father or something.

So, when her boyfriend called asking about her last night Doug said she was fine- just that someone sucked all the blood out of her. haha......

He is so lax.....I would be keeping a tighter rein on her, she is only 13 1/2,,,,,,,

k- best get - on a maple bar run for Rachel - lol

Hello, hello. Bet you all thought I kicked the bucket. Ha, nope, I'm still here. Been busy. CRISTI, thanks for the card and the thoughts. It's nice to know I'm thought about. I'm doing all kinds of stuff now that I've lost weight I have a new zeal for life. I'm in the process of having my teeth replaced with dentures and **** as it is it'll be worth it to have straight white teeth for the first time in my life. After I get the teeth I'll be doing volunteer work several days a week at our local VA Hospital . I'm also doing an elabrate cross stitch design on 12 squares for a future quilt. Then there the ever popular sifting though sister's stuff and filling up unused trash cans each week. As it is spring there is an enormous amount yard work to do. Trimming, hacking , weeding,spraying. I keep up with my email but thats been about it. I've written to Ellen ,( WHERE ARE YOU?), several times but never heard back.
I'm still walking every day and have not returned to former bad eating habits though can't say I'm dieting ether. I've got to go. Time for dog to get her pills. I'll pop in from time to time. Check on everyone.

Geesh Pam,,,if you have some spare time...come join me in hunting for body limbs...lol

Cristi glad to know your feeling better, sorry about TOM. Not that I miss amonth or anything but I have usually a good month a regular month and then knock me on my butt month.

Susan,,,all I can say is YIKES! about Rach...best get a good talk in with dad and Rach and Becks too...

Cute pics Jane,,,again wish I had one of them lil girls....lol its just not the same having a girl dog.

Well I have to laugh in the last play I had to only use pastels...no brights. This play I have all birghts and darks,,,no pastels. So the thing with this play is, all the cast is wearing beige with one accent color of red or black. So to make it interesting we are painting all the props that we can multi colored, retro. my nails are multi colored from spray painting everything.
well better get going...

Hi..Glad to see all of the posting, but it is hard to keep up. I know everyone is busy in the yard and doing all the Spring things. I weeded yesterday and started washing down woodwork and doors today. I cleaned all of the ceiling fans and light fixtures and whew! What a job. With any luck this will be the last time I Spring clean this big house. I am ready to move to a smaller one, if we could just find what we want. More Spring cleaning tomorrow and then hanging out with Mom on Friday. I am getting my walk in every day.
Now I am exhausted and off to bed.
