Kempy, Noelle, jbbm, others, hello! I am feeling much better and trying to get out today to see my horse. It will surely do good to see her. I have missed her so and know she is lonely. God, I hate that with animals you can't call them up and talk and they must have no idea where you are....
Noelle I have tried the Partylies b4 but I felt that I had to sit on top of them to smell them. These I can only lite for a few hours at a time. (I burn a candle at work all day) I really like the new one Silver Bells. It smells like cranberries. I really like fruity smelling cadles. I looked to see if there was a store locator but I usually find them in little stores. We have tons of antique stores and a few of them sell gift items too. I have even seen them in a small pharmacy. I would check around in gift stores to see that way you don't have to pay shipping and you can smell tham all.
Red I love horses. I used to jump when I was younger. I have a prblem o fjust walking up to them when i see them b/c I love them so much. Just a little info, French Quarter police horses aren't really friendly.
Hurrah! I got to see my horse (and all the others and all the dogs) , gave her lots of hugs (and carrots, apples and brown sugar!) It was cold and the wind was icy. My lips are really hurting now but I feel great! Kempy, I'm just like you. I go up to ALL kinds of animals. Like they say..."the outside of a horse is good for the inside of a (wo)man"...!!!! So, tell me your story with the French Quarter kids!

Ohmygawd! I'm just back from the Crue concert and it was so awesome!!! We had loge seats and I swear I was directly across from Tommy Lee. I don't know what the heck was happening with his hair...it looked like he either mohawked the sides again or maybe had it all teased up and had it tied back--it looked totally weird! Nikki Sixx on the other hand, he looked hot. Vince was fat (look at the pot calling the kettle black ) but he sounded like Vince... Mick, was just great on his axe as usual. It was fun and the played A LOT of their old stuff from the Too Fast For Love and Shout at the albums. I lost my voice too from screaming so much. It was just a great freakin' birthday!!! They could've done without the topless girls parading around stage but they are the Crue. There's going to be a biker build-off on Saturday and the Crue bikes are supposed to be there. I hope Tommy is too. OK, enough drooling about Mr. Lee, I gotta go check on Rick and put my energies to better use Chat w/ya ladies tomorrow!
I am running behind today but I wanted to let you know Noelle that I cancelled the last gift for you and I got you a gift certificate to Amazon.com so it should be in your email today.
I will be back later.
Kind of a quick post from me here, I have to get ready to go to my son's holiday concert. He is feeling better except a nasty cough. We got quite alot of snow but it is 33 degrees and starting to melt. Crazy weather I tell ya.
Noelle I am so happy you had a great time on your birthday. And what is up with his hair? LOL Even though Vince changed at least he had the voice yet, haha....the topless girls must have been a sight. Doesn't surprise me though like you said. Hope you are not to tired today at work. I am sorry about you having to go on the bc pills. But you know what? You are taking control of your health and that is a positive thing to do. Don't ever give up on your dream of another child. You never know what God has planned for you. Hugs!
Kempy those candles look really nice. I think I would love the silver bells. I may just have to order one.
Red horses are great. I think just looking into to their eyes is so calming. They are gentle sweet animals.
Cherie, hope you are feeling better....and Hannah too. My daughter had a 101 temp last night. Sick season is here, blah! My sons teacher said kids in his class all ready have the flu! Say warm andCuddle with your puppy.
Hi everyone, check back later on today. Got to scoot!
Hey guys. I left work to head to the store. I have to make a dip for the party tomorrow.
Red I havn't gotten into trouble in the Quarter. I just walked up to one of the horses like it was going to let me pet it. I forget that they are work horses and they really don't care for people. I got smacked in the face with it's tail. Glad you got to have some animal time. I swear sometimes I like animals better than humans. Is that bad?
Noelle I hope there were no young kids in the audience. I could have lived without the women too. I am glad you had fun though.
Julie I would look around for the candles too. i just hate for you guys to have to pay shipping if you don't have to. They are great though so I highly recommend them. I have a butter rum one that I am going to burn tomorrow night for the party.
Hi girls. I finally got in to work today. Angie, the gift certificate was in my work email box all along....SORRY! I did get the Amazon.com one so thanks very much!!!! I was only checking from my home computer and forgot that you guys maybe had the work one as a default since I'm usually farting around online from work anyway. THANKS AGAIN!
Anyway, Michael is out of school for Xmas break as of today. He and Rick took their karate exams last night and it looks like they did a great job. One of Michael's classmates who trains at another dojo with the same sensei came over and took his exam as well. They should be getting another belt promotion ceremony on Monday. I had to take Michael to the doctor this morning since he was complaining of an earache. He has never had an ear infection before now. I knew it had to be hurting him though, because he mentioned it twice and he usually never complains about anything being painful. So I am waiting for the pharmacy to get his Rx ready....
Kempy, I got your MK catalog in the mail today. THanks! I'm going to go through it and see if anything catches my eye. Anything to help you out girl. It's kind of funny that you sent it too, because when I was getting my nails done at the salon two days ago, one of the stylists had the catalogs on display at her station. I was going to ask her for one but she was too busy with customers swarming around.
Julie, thanks for the support. I needed that. It's just that I feel like time is running out ya know? Although, my mom did have me when she was 38! Enjoy your sons concert and give your dd and ds a little extra TLC while they get better. Oh! And I'll try and take a pic of what I bought at the concert--thanks for the gift
Red, glad you got to spend time with your horse. You know, this thread is really a bunch of animal lovers. We took my son to see the movie the Chronicles of Narnia and the animals could talk. One of the horses in the movie was being ridden by one of the main characters and when the boy wanted to stop he said "whoa horsie"...the horse then turned his head and said "My name is Phillip!" like he was all insulted like
Cherie, are you guys feeling much better today?
So Angie, how's your day going?
Dips and Cal, hope you're both doing well. Stop in when you can.
Have a good one ladies, I'll be back later on tonight.
I got some good pictures of my b-day "gifts"...but I can't find the stupid USB cable to download the pics. Off to go hunting for the ever-elusive thingamajig that I need when I'm short of time...
Hey girls!! How is everyone this week. I have been so busy that I havent had time to think straight. Brit is acting up again so we are stressing with her attitude. I am at my wits end and dont know what to do because I can keep my cool for only so long.
Our Christmas party is tomorrow so I have been trying to get everything in order for that. On the plus side, I am done shopping now.
I am so sad....We would have been leaving for Florida tomorrow morning if we had stuck to our schedule. BOOHOO!!! I want to go instead of stay home with this nice big snowstorm hitting us.
Cal, I got your gift today. THANK YOU!!! I love it. the scenery is so beautiful. I cant wait to go there someday.
Hi girls, I did about 4+ miles this morning with Lucky. She's finally starting to get used to the leash. She's afraid of big cement trucks, leaf blowers, riding lawn mowers and weed whackers Other than that, she's doing great. I'm a bit tired because I was up at 3 a.m. with the dogs barking again. It was just the neighbor getting ready for work. Lucky hates them and barks at them any time they come outside. She doesn't bark at the other side neighbors at all though
Angie, don't know what to tell ya about Brit. Thankfully my 17 y.o. niece is sort of calming down--remember all the trouble she gave my sister? I still want to smack her every now and then though... what time does the party start and would you like me to bring anything?
So what are the rest of you up to? Come out and chat!
Hey VERY quick post. All the girls form work are coming here for our pary so I will chat in the morning. I just wanted to say hi and Noelle I LOVE the gift. I am using the key chain already. I have shown everyone how cute it is. Thanks again.
I am feeling very left out with all the talk of gifts..... Just kidding. I know you guys are like family and have been writing for eons! I wish I weren't so busy and I could write more. It's very hard for me to respond to your posts because there is so much personal stuff I don't know about. Oh well. Heh, where is dips these days? cherie, are you still training for the marathon? Noelle, are all the Japanese gone yet? I forgot about the Honolulu. Yes, that is an annual ritual for the runners here and marathons are HUGE in Japan. You are really into MotCru, aren't you? I'm a rocker but they never did anything for me. They were here a lot, the one guy I think got all his tattoos in Tokyo. I can't believe they are still touring. Must be getting up there...but I don't mind. Barechested dancers...ah, well, gotta pull the crowd I suppose. It's rock 'n' roll...and I do love it.
Weigh Day! I lost 2.5 lbs this week....but I am sure to be bloated up for the next week after the party. Wow, I cant believe that I have actually started to lose this weight again. I still have alot to lose just to get back down to the weight I was when we all met the last time I had to lose but hey at least I keep trying right?
I will try to get back here after the party to do individual replies to everyone.
