WELCOME TO MAFIA HOUSE #47

How the RTM got started:

posted by Pamela on August 26, 2005, 09:42:33 PM
Just as a reminder, here's how you got started here in your new home...it was all my fault.    :blush

...because I was a heartless meanie and deleted the Masonic Temple thread...here's a new home for you guys eh?!? I'm sorry, really. I didn't know you were still using that thread to scheme... I mean, plan your next wild weekend!

So I humbly offer you a new home, your very own forum, and hopefully a place you can congregate and plot your next gathering without the risk of being sent into cyber oblivion.

And if this isn't enough to atone for my sins, you may sentence me to a hundred lashes with a red CA thong. But only if they are administered by you know who.


A lovely reminder of the MI Diesels!  :slick

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!  Well I see we have moved during the night, good thing I had my suitcase already packed. 

EVELYN, got my blood tests results back yesterday.  The nurse called me about 4:30 and said all was well.  That is good news as the uremic acid is now under control so it must be something else that is keeping my foot swollen.  How are you feeling?  Did Matt make a good profit on his spaghetti lunch with all the desserts?  The cost of food is so high it is hard to be able to charge enough to come out on top.  I know most people think restaurants can get the food supplies a lot cheaper but they can't.   

SHARON, happy sales to you lady!!!!  Hope you make tons of money  today .  Guess what the sun is shinning again !!!!!!!!!  :bigsmile  Didn't sleep well at all as I couldn't sleep on my side after hurting that rib on the left side.  What a huge mess I am.

PEGGY, that puzzle you just finished would have drove me nuts!!  How strange it looks, like someone was on drugs.  :lol

KAREN, what are you up to today?  Did you get all your tax stuff done?  I bought a lot of easy things for supper since I am not  up to cooking.  TOday it is going to be my favorite thing, hot dogs in a bun with sauerkraut and home fried potatoes.  Not really healthy eating but who cares any more I love it.  :bigsmile

Good morning everyone   :hugg

I brought over a picture for our new house.  What a great tour that was. 

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Spikee48047/OSF_GBoF2_fx-1.jpg)


Wonder if he will do a tour for this CD.  Has anyone heard anything on it yet?   :nixweiss:


Wonder where Kim is.  I hope granny is adjusting OK.  :pray

Shirley - So good to hear that your blood work is good.   :clap


Mary is supposed to be coming home today!   :bouncy


Karen - How is Lucy doing today?  Still a little groggy?


I know I was going to respond to other posts, but I can't remember what I was going to say.   :blush  I can't check the last posts below (new house). 

I have to run soon, have a dental cleaning today.   :bigsmile  (I had to cancel my last one because I was in and out of the hospital at the wrong times.)

Hi Shirley, today I'm still working on tax stuff and laundry.  I don't do well with interruptions, and this has been one of "those weeks" where I can't seem to concentrate. :para 
Hopefully I can get the stuff to the accountant tomorrow.
    Hot dogs instead of brats or metts?  I like a good brat with sauerkraut; not sure about regular hot dogs.  Anyway, I'm glad you are enjoying some of your favorite foods!
Haven't had one of these in probably 20 years, but my dad got me hooked on crunchy peanut butter and catsup on hotdogs!  I don't eat hot dogs anymore; they don't seem to agree with me, and my health-conscious husband talked me out of buying them, long ago. :icon_rolleyes:

Peggy, Lucy is back to normal except for her punk haircut right now!  They shaved about half of her right side.  Her "hairdo" reminds me of Rihanna's new do!  :lol  I can tell the stitches bother her tho.

Hey I heard from Kim,  told me all the problems she is having with her computer.  She can still email and get on Facebook using her mom's ID (for now) but she's worried she'll lose that, too.

She got a big message saying Internet Explorer was infected and and in order to get online, she  was to purchase XP Protection for 49.95.  She tried to ignore, then it would kick her off the internet.  She even tried Firefox; same thing.  Now the computer is all messed up, can't even get into her Norton to try to get it cleaned up. :bang  She said it may be awhile before she can get back online.  :sad


Hope Jermaine leaves tonight on Idol, I don't seem to enjoy him at all.

PHILLY,  you are so good to us.  I am going to have to try that Scotch Oatmeal my son has a variety of it and says he loves it.  In the meantime I will try some of those rolls with the icing.   :bigsmile :lol :smile

KAREN, I only buy the Hebrew National all beef hotdogs as I do believe those are safe to eat and no junk in them.  Hubby likes hot dogs sometimes.

Sorry PHILLY my gal I should have said Irish oatmeal, by the way my son Scott Patrick was born on St. Patrick's day.  My son Mark was born of Feb 14th, Valentines Day and until March 17  rolls around , Scott and Mark are the same age.  That is what you call having your kids close.

Shirley - Wow - you did have your children close.  You asked about the catering job. Yes, Matt did make a profit. It was a very successful event and I wish we had more of them.  Remember I said someone wanted to buy a cake and I didn't know what to charge. well, Sharon will love this. They had the best white wine at the function and I had no idea where they got it, so I made a trade. A cake for bottle of that white wine. He said he'd bring two bottles to me. Sounds good to me!!!!!

Hey, Philly, me girl, thanks for the rolls. Your such a sweet granddaughter!!!!!!

Mary - Hope you getting better and better every day.

Kim - Please fix the computer fast. I miss my laugh for the day.

I didn't have to go out and babysit today, so I wanted to stop in and see if Mary had a chance to stop by.  Hope you are doing better.   :hugg

Hi RTM Peeps!  :wave

Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing!!

Hope this is a good day for everybody!  :hugg :hugg   Sorry that KIM is having computer troubles.  :doh  Hope MARY was able to leave the hospital today.

Going to have a quick sandwich at Subway and then off to the High School Boy's Basketball tournament game with Nancy.  My SIL, Mike, announces and Lexie is a cheerleader.  I have a sinking feeling that the team's season will end with tonight's game.  We are playing a school from a bigger division and  it is "crunch time".  If you lose . . . . you are done! 

I'm going to tape the IDOL results show.  YIPES!  The talent is very sparse this season so far.  :para   Of course, that may just be my humble opinion.  Seems like even the couple of "good ones" are not all that spectacular.  :slick

Enjoy the evening, everyone!  Stay safe! :hugg

 :wave   

Quick run through to see what/how everyone is doing. I usually get online when Dad's sleeping, but then don't get much sleep and is catching up with me. Soooo, here I am now.

Karen, interruptions when trying to concentrate are  :bang :bang :bang :bang :bang  I've been trying to do Dad's taxes without tax help and first it's the visiting nurse, than the physical therapist, then the hospital calling about his Saturday MRI, and when that's not happening, the tv volume is on 45. I already screwed my DD brother's year-end report with the government and didn't realize it until after it was in the mail.

Jim is here to bring me some lovin' and laughs for a couple days.  :clap  He also has been assembling Mom's coin collection which I've found all over the place and pricing it. Today he went to the coin dealer and made Dad happy with $$$ he can spend.  :lmao  Next week Jim's going to stay a couple days with Dad so I can go home and try to get our taxes done. Haven't been able to do anything on my Quicken for over a month now and that scares me after spending all kinds of $$$ during that time. Guess I need to get a new Quicken that will work on my laptop and desktop both.

Barb, enjoy the game tonight!

Shirley, sounds like you're feeling a little better. You're not trying to fool us are you?  :hugg  My closest babies were 3/11/73 and 4/10/74. The others were 2/23/61 and 10/20/66.  :bduh

Evelyn, sounds like you made a good trade!!!!!!!!!!   :clap

Hope Mary was able to go home today and is doing really well. Bet Paul is pampering her.  :wink

It's 40 degrees here. Still piles of snow taller than me, but there is grass showing now.

 :wave

Oops, Sharon hope your selling day is another good one.

Karen, did Kim say how Granny is doing? Is she in a nursing home or the hospital?





Title: Re: Motor City Red Thong Mafia #47 (R Rated)
Post by: karen28 on March 04, 2010, 03:08:21 PM
Shirley, I'll have to look around and see if we have Hebrew National brand hotdogs around here.  Sometimes I'd like to have one.  I think I'd go nuts with them since it's been so long.  Let's see, I'd have one Dad's way (peanut butter); I'd have one cooked over the fire with butter and mustard, then I'd have one with coney sauce.  Oh yeah, and one with catsup and  mom's homemade relish she makes with green tomatoes. :yum :yum

Becky,  sounds like you have a LOT more distractions than I do! :doh :lol  Hope you can get them all done soon so you can relax and breathe a sigh of relief!  Glad Jim is there now! 

Kim didn't mention Granny at all.  I'll ask her on Facebook and let you know!

Barbara,  I agree with you about Idol this year.  No standout like Adam, but then I knew this season couldn't possibly live up to last season!  I'm still enjoying the show, though! :yes

Evelyn, good deal!! :clap  How many cakes does he want?  He might be able to keep  you supplied with wine for a year! :lol (http://bestsmileys.com/drinking/9.gif)

It is 6: 33 and I just unloaded my stuff from my hospital bag and came on here to let you all know I am home. I had the best hospital stay ever. Believe me it was like a 4 start hotel. I had a huge single room, it reminded me of the new birthing rooms. I had a big couch all along one wall with end tables. A recliner, flat screen tv and room service. You call and tell the kitchen what you wany and what time you want it. The menu is not real big but the food was delicious! Today before I was discharged they gve me and a guest a celebration dinner. We had our choice of prime rib, salmon, cordon bleu, or 5 cheese lasagna. Also we got shrimp cocktail, twice baked potato. Prince Edward green bean blend, rolls with butter, choice of milk, coffee, or tea and Tiramisu, the very best I ever had. Paul had the chicken and I had the prime rib. Delicious but I am having a very hard time swallowing. The Tiramisu went down very good because it was very cold and a slight bit frozen in the middle layer. I told them that if I didn't have a 65 in TV in my living room to wtch Burn Notice tonight I would not leave. Every single one on staff was wonderful This morning after the doctor took out my drainage plus the nurse asked me if I wanted my nails and hair done!!! The new section I was in was for Neurology only and this is how it is done there. Just awesome.
I am fine, just hurting pretty bad. They had to move a lot of muscle around and my cords too so that is why it hurts to swallow. I will be eating lots of popsicles.
Also, greatest news ever,,, TA DA Chase is coming home today! What a little fighter! He is now 4 lb 81/2 oz. Can you believe him?? He looks like he has chipmunk cheeks!!!!
Ladies, I truley am done for now. I am going to park my hind end on the couch and stay there till til is is time to park it in my bed. I love you all and thank you for the best wishes and prayers.
Oh yes, and Paul IS catering to me. He even took some prescriptions into the pharmacy for me all by himself and that is really something for him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kim, I didn't see your Facebook message saying I could post about Granny until this morning, so I hadn't posted about her yet.  Here's Kim's update on Granny yesterday, why she is unresponsive right now:

Kim Huff Leone March 4 at 10:49pm
Nooo...weather is cold...39 tonight. maybe it'll warm up next week.

As for granny, she's not doin well at all. thought we had her kinda regulated with the pain for a day. she gets morphine every 2 hours, then Ativan at night. Yesterday she was somewhat lucid. Night before last was terrible (they gave her Percocet...she went crazy...we walked in and found her crawling on the floor in the morning, yelling for mom.)
=[ But then she came around a bit yesterday. Then I guess she had a bad night last night, they gave her a dose of Ativan and morphine at 430 am...and she hasn't woke up since. They keep trying to wake her up and she's been unresponsive all day today. So we're just waiting to see...if she does wake up at this point, she's had NO pain meds since 430 am....it won't be pleasant. They'll have to knock her back out. It's probably a drug induced coma-like type thing. Anyway...not a good day really.

Kim,  it's good to see you could get into Claymaniacs (and appreciate my Hot Man Pic I posted just for you  :giggle).  Whatever you do, don't delete that email with the link in it!!! :hypno 
Nothing sexier than a man in jeans, top button undone.....'specially when they are Reed and his 6-pack (looks more like a 12-pack to me tho!!! :icon_eek: :thud)

Marilyn, love that picture of Simon Baker too.  Wish I had watched him on Ellen today!  Darn.
You know, on AI last night, I kind of thought Simon meant Lilly, too.  I didn't see what the judges saw, either.  I do like her, from Hollywood week, just haven't enjoyed the performances as much since the show started at Top 24.  And I couldn't remember any other girl, other than Crystal, who the judges had piled praise on.  And I knew they didn't mean Crystal.  :bduh :bduh  I'll have to watch my taped show again to see who he meant!   
Sharon, I do like Lilly, just thought she was off a little, but what do I know?? :nixweiss:

Overall, I am okay with who they sent home this week.  Glad Didi gets another chance to do what she does well, instead of what she did this week. :para

 Yep SHARON the sun is shinning here also.  How wonderful to see so much sunshine this winter.  Talked to my son Mark yesterday told him it was time to come back home again I miss him so much, he said he was ready!  I am surprised as who would want to come and listen to me moaning and groaning for all those days.  Would love to go out to eat today and take a drive to Oscoda to a decent restaurant.  Don't know if I could get in or out of the seating they have there though as it is pretty low.  If I took enough pain pills I might be able to manage or I would be sleeping thru my dinner either way.  Don't want to try and go and be so miserable that I sit there and cry from pain though, I just never know.  At least I told hubby I do try to get out it may not work out good but I do try.

KAREN, bless  your heart for remembering how much I love BIG TOM BRADY.  Love him and love that he loves his wife so much.  I read a large article on his wife and she is really quite a wonderful woman.  He picked very well when he married her and of course she picked the best there is.  I am hoping this is his last year in football before he really hurts his health. 

MARYl, how wonderful to see you here.  Bless your heart you have so much courage.  Please tell me the name of that hospital.  Sounds great!!!  The hospital in Greeneville, TN was wonderful.  It was pretty new with large private rooms and the food was fantastic.  The hospital i was in at Saginaw, had room service.  You could eat when ever you wanted.  Just dial the room service and look at the menu and order what ever and how much you wanted and tell them what time and it was there.  I loved it, not having to wait till everyone else got their trays and the food getting cold.

Okay...when Simon said someone was so bad that he turned off the TV, who was he talking about?  I VOTE LILLY!  She sucked but got such good reviews from the judges.  Were they hearing the same person?  Sheesh.

You know that could have been everyone except Crystal when I think about it :para
Do we know why she was in hospital??? Have I missed something???
You know those kids must be so confused with what the judges are giving them as "constructive criticism" this year :bduh I'm confused :para :lol
Did anyone notice last night the confusion before Haely sang her "swan song"??  the stage manager Debbie I think I heard was giving Ryan grief, they moved two girls up top over before Michelle sang :bduh
Also moving Ellen to the "2nd" position for critique after Randy they switched chairs for critiquing this week.  Bet Simon loves all the kerfuffle since he's leaving anyway, will give viewers all the more reason to watch X Factor next year.

Here is something I found about Crystal, Sharon.   Who knows whether it's fact or not tho?? :bduh

"Crystal Bowersox, fresh from a hospitalization for complications of her Type 1 diabetes, invested her full voice and hopeful, weary heart into a reading of the Creedence Clearwater Revival song "I Can See the Light."

Here is the link; this paragraph is next to the last one.  L.A.Times - Crystal Bowersox (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/americanidoltracker/2010/03/ann-powers-the-idol-girls-try-to-go-universal.html)

 I really like Siobhan Magnus but hated that she sang "Think" by Aretha Franklin.  Not a "current" choice at all, didn't showcase what kind of recording artist she wants to be, and I didn't like her version.  Very disappointing.  Sure, she hit the one high note.  That's not enough for me.

I just listened to an MP3 of Lilly's performance over at www.rickey.org.  It was better than I remembered.

OK, gonna hafta ignore the 'puter for the rest of the morning, maybe afternoon too, gotta get that tax info organized and in to my accountant!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shirley, if you go out to eat, we want a full report of what you ate later!! :hugg

Morning all,

Mary, so glad you are home. I have wanted to call you but afraid I would wake you up or something. Maybe will try this afternoon. St. John's certainly wasn't like that when I was in it the last time. Are you serious about the room service, prime rib, etc.? Wow, I could live with that. Has the surgery helped you so far - heard you were happy to lift your arm over your head without too much pain - that's wonderful! Any other improvements?

Shirley, so sorry you are in such pain - what is it from this time (your ribs)? I think you should go for that dinner out - it would probably be terrific medicine for your spirits.

Kim, is your grandmother unresponsive because of the pain pills? Is she just delirious or more like in a coma? Am sending you   :hugg :hugg :hugg. Glad you are back. We do miss you when you aren't around.

Karen, I heard on TV that Crystal was in the hospital for her diabetes so it is probably true. The four who left last night were okay with me. Thought most of them had improved since last week but still like Crystal best.

Shar, afraid I have no work again. Just been sitting here playing games and checking every couple of minutes to see if any work came in - it sucks! I need to make some extra money to make up for when I won't be able to work because of my surgery. BTW, it has been resdheduled for March 26th at 7:30 am - I will go into the hospital on March 25 at 8:30 am for preparation. Ding dang it, Julie had bought us all tickets to see Wicked (one of my Christmas presents) on April 2nd - guess I will have to miss that, but better that than Caity's play a couple of weeks later. Darn!

Hi Becky, Barb, Peggy, and Evelyn!

Has anyone heard from Ann at all? Am getting worried about her.

Was at Julie's last night to pick Sandy up as I am dog-sitting while they go skiing. You should have seen my Emily in her ski outfit and equipment - wow! Wish I had had my camera.  What a beauty she is! I just cannot believe shey will be 13 years old on Sunday - where does the time go anyway!?! I have a teenage granddaughter - unfarginbelievable!

B...I think you'd have to classify granny as comatose. She IS opening her eyes today briefly (didn't do that yesterday) but she doesn't know us. eyes don't focus, roll back in her head :sad

Probably drug induced...found out it took TWO Ativan to knock her out.  :bang

But she's very peaceful at least. She's not in any pain that we can see.

Then the Occupational Therapy chick comes in to try & get her up to teach her how to make sandwiches & stuff! WHAT!?
She's been makin sandwiches for 95 years sister. She's unconscious. Unresponsive. Not eating or drinking. She's not makin no sandwiches today dummy. :slap

This insurance makes em try & do it...but you'd THINK they'd know better. :bduh

Here is a better link, Sharon, takes you right to Lilly's  page.  For some reason, there is no video on her, but you can either listen to the performance or download to save to your computer.
Lilly Scott 3-3-10 (http://www.rickey.org/?p=34363)
And here is the condensed version I found of what the judges had to say about Michele:

"Michelle Delamor sings “With Arms Wide Open” by Creed on the American Idol Top 20
Ellen DeGeneres: You do look fabulous. A few moments there I forgot it was a rock song.

Kara DioGuardi: My favorite performance of yours ever! I bought you on this one.

Randy Jackson: The outfit is hot. I sound like a broken record tonight.

Simon Cowell: I’m kinda with Kara. Regarding the outfit – we got Vera Wang in the audience
Go here to see the comments, and to listen to her again.
Michelle Delamor 3-3-10 (http://www.rickey.org/?p=34358)
 I just listened and it didn't seem that bad.  Wonder who he was talking about then??? :hypno :hypno  He's making us CRAZY. :crazy  Just TELL us for gosh sake!  He's never held back before!! :lol

KIM, a week before my mom passed away from lung cancer, she was in a nursing home, a brand new one that was very nice as far as nursin homes go, and they insisted she go to physical therapy and I asked why were they pushing her to do this when she was dying and they told me because they had to still prove to the insurance co that they were trying to make my mom better.  :bang  Makes no sense just adds to the bill.

Yep...like Shirley said. The insurance companies don't care that they have a terminal illness or that they are 95 and unconscious. They want em up and in Physical therapy! They took granny 2 nights ago to PT. :para Afterwards she said her head felt funny, and she didn't think she could do that again. she was all upset. Then she had her bad night after that and has been knocked out ever since.

Ma is so mad- she's "guarding" her now. Nobody but nurses & aides allowed in the room.  :naughty :naughty

The one this morning was Occupational therapy.

She can't EAT a sandwich...what makes you think she's gonna MAKE a sandwich?
Oh and SHE would teach YOU how to make a sandwich ...IF she were conscious! :slap  :slap


Anyway....now I gotta go to work. Last place in the world I feel like being to tell the truth. :icon_eek: SOMEBODY gonna wear a pizza tonight...I can just feel it. :lol :lol

Shirley, that's what my dad says, too. The bill for the three ladies coming regularly is unbelievable, but Medicare requires it and pays for it. They're trying to get him strong enough to be self-sufficient, but more likely it's to keep him from falling again and racking up more expensive bills yet.  :bduh

Post by: InAweOfClay on March 05, 2010, 02:12:31 PM
Today is such a beautiful day that Dad, Jim and I went to the cemeteries to visit Mom, and Jim's parents. Couldn't find the graves because they are still covered with snow, but we were there anyway. Then we took a ride out to a park where Dad proposed to Mom and where Jim used to run up and down the hills to get in shape for basketball when he was a teenager. Hadn't been there in 50 years and it was fun to see. Then we drove out in the country to a park by a big dam where we used to go when I was a kid. The snow-covered rolling hills of fields were beautiful. Dad sure enjoyed being out and about. So did I. Now the guys are both napping so here I am.

Made two crockpot meals this week. This first was a big hit. Dad loves spaghetti parmeson. Jim hates parmeson. I put chicken breasts and jars of Ragu Traditional spaghetti in the crock pot and cooked it all day. At dinner time, I cooked the spaghetti, fixed their plates, sprinkled a mixed shred of white cheeses over the chicken, spaghetti and sauce and nuked it. They loved it and so did I. Not exactly gourmet like the rest of you do, but yummy. Today's crckpot has swiss steack, potatoes, carrots, celery and small onions in it. (So dad can avoid the onions.) I'll make gravy with the liquid and they will love that, too. Haven't cooked this much in years.  :blush

And that is probably the last you'll ever hear about MY cooking.  :lol

BBL

Post by: cl4clay on March 05, 2010, 05:02:39 PM
Your meals sound so good. Honestly, wish I were there to share them with you.

Shirley and Kim - I had to guard Mom too. Thankfully, I had a dr. that didn't believe in too many meds, only what was absolutely needed. Kim, when they drug her up that much, how in the world do they expect her to respond to anything. I can see keeping her sedated if she is in a lot of pain, but then don't expect her to respond to anything. Those nurses should know that.   

Mary - Is your pain the same as what you had or is it from the surgery? Praying for you.

Post by: *joemomma on March 05, 2010, 06:23:58 PM
Awww...Mary. :hugg :hugg Rest & hopefully that pain will GO AWAY!

Ok now....granny hasn't had any meds since yesterday at 430 am.

She's still unresponsive tonight. How long does it take for em to wear off ya think? she WAS wakin up in pain every 2 to 4 hours...when the meds wore off some.

Took them 4 days to detox Joe...but they were givin him stuff to detox. Lasix I think?

Karen...I aint never had no computer virus before that I can think of!....????

I called off work afterall tonight. It's just too much right now. My momma needs me there with her. And I'm exhausted. :bduh


Gonna try & get some rest tonight. Meet ya at the crack tomorrow!

And...I didn't know ALL insurance companies did this PT thing. Ma just thought she got a wacky company or something. See how helpful you all are here? Put our RTM gals together and they can figure out just about anything!  :slick :bigsmile

Kim, you're too young to understand.  :wink  That insurance is called Medicare. Us older folks don't call it insurance; we call it a blessing. But that doesn't mean it doesn't do dumb stuff. I'm glad your granny is not in pain right now. Maybe they're just keeping her sedated because her pain would be too great. I'm sorry, I can't remember if they ever got her unplugged. Did they?
Hang in there!  :hugg



Title: Re: Motor City Red Thong Mafia #47 (R Rated)
Post by: cl4clay on March 05, 2010, 06:50:46 PM
Kim - Medication act differently on older people. Sometimes, they will wear off fast and other times it will take days. As long as she is not in pain, do not give her any more pain medication. If she wakes up and is in pain , then give it to her. The problem is that some nurses will give them pain med every two hours whether they need it or not. That's when you have to tell them not to use any pain med unles she is awake and needs it.  Hope that helps you out.

Becky...I'm not referring to Medicare, I'm talking about her INSURANCE...it's called Optimum. It's her supplemental insurance and ma just got it for her 2 months ago. That is what's covering the stay right now. That's why ma was afraid that it was this company that required PT...until I told her what y'all said...that they all do it.

And whatcha mean unplugged? Unplugged from what?

Evelyn...the nurses have stopped all meds unless she wakes and is in pain. I just wonder if it's from meds or if her brain just had enough. :sad  We'll see. She is one tough cookie...my granny!
Never know when ya walk in what you'll find with her!

Morning Kim!!   I also hope Granny got "Unplugged."   :wink :hugg

Becky,  your crockpot meals sound wonderful!  I should get a crockpot; would love to get dinner started in the morning, then not worry about it all day.

I spent a good part of yesterday afternoon baking wheat-free treats for Justin.  I made him some cupcakes, Betty Crocker's yellow gluten-free cake mix is delicious!  Added some lemon zest.  Then I tried to use Gluten Free Pantry Cake Mix and made some snickerdoodle/heath bar cookies out of it.  They aren't quite as good; I added brown sugar for flavor, and shouldn't have.  He's gonna have a real sugar high when he eats those!  :whoot   :lol 
Just trying to make it easier on him to do this.  He was so sweet and touched yesterday, gave me a big hug and thanked me for helping him.  Gosh I love that kid!!  :heartburst

Mapquest says around 5 1/2 hours.  When we met up in Canandaigua for Clay's concert a couple of years ago, I had gone to Diane's house the afternoon before and spent the night, then the drive wasn't bad at all.  (takes me over 3 1/2 hrs to get up to Diane's).

I hadn't heard he and Ruben were performing there!  I just heard about the Asheville one.
When in August will they be there, do you know?

Good morning ladies,

My, you gals don't even sleep in on the weekends - what energy you have! I'm jealous. Did wake up earlier but went back to sleep - just feel kind of groggy today, for some reason.

Sooooo, Clay touring with Ruben - methinks that is not exactly a great sign for Clay's career. On the other hand, it sounds like a fun trip. Don't know if I would be abel to do it but sounds like fun. Upstate NY is pretty nice in the summertime, too. Worth thinking about.  Musketeers? I do have a lot of miles that I haven't used up on my leased car before I have to turn it in in November.

Becky, your crock pot meals sound good - have thought about getting me one (mine is too small) lately too. I also like the idea of throwing food in the pot and having dinner ready when I'm thru working. Supposed to be fairly healthy too.

Kim, my insurance didn't try to get me to do physical therapy the last couple of times I've been in the hospital - they did try to get me to walk and move around because that is a very important thing to do. I don't know what diagnosis and prognosis they have given your granny, but I would think that should make a difference in how much and what they are doing now. If she has a chance to get better, they probably don't want her limbs to atrophy. I guess I would just ask some questions like what and why. Does she know who you and your mom are or is she just in lala land?  :hugg

Off to see if I have any work today then Dan and I have a lot of signs and things to make and stick around before Emily gets home tomorrow (knew Julie's campaign signs would come in handy).

Karen I remember that but I thought it was the concert where we got lost and came in late but Clay came right to where we were sitting. Either way it was a great time as usual.
Kim, I hope your granny is pain free and resting well today. It is no wonder you are exhausted. You and Betty need to take care of yourselves so you can take care of granny.
The pain is from the surgery. For some reason my throat is really swollen and I am having a hart time swallowing. Not a good thing when the yucky pain pills get stuck mid throat :naughty I am going to eat some Popsicle's and if the swelling doesn't go down I will call the doctor. I really do not want my throat to close up any more than it already is.
I am going back on the couch and try to get comfortable. Love to you all. BBL

Wow, Karen....great memory!  I didn't even remember that.  :lol   We stayed at a Holiday Inn outside of town and it was extremely nice.  BUT....if you plan on eating anything after 9:00, GOOD LUCK...there is NOTHING open!  Unreal.  We ate candy from the machines in the hotel after the concert...that was dinner.  YUCK.  Couldn't do that now, for sure.  Otherwise, the place was beautiful...but hilly...and be prepared for some cardio.   Right, Becky?  :lol

Anyway...good morning!  The sun is shining and it's beautiful!  We're going to my son's house today..have another "thing" tomorrow.  Can't wait to get the kids outside to RUUUUNNNNNN!  (I guess it's hereditary..lol)

:hugg for those who need it..

Hope everyone can soak up some vitamin D today and have a GREAT day!

Joemamma
Hope your granny gets better. Meds do strange things to people so hope that will change for the better.

Sharon
Any clip on earrings show up lateley, the dangly kind.
I am going to a concert with my son tonight and will have to wear my clip ons, they hurt.
It is a Brahms concert. As long as they do not play Brahms Lullaby I will be fine. Have been a bit sleepy lately.

Sitting here typing and looking out the window , just saw the cutest thing go by. My studio is in a Mennonite, Amish district. About eiight just drove by in their three wheelers and cute outfits. Two of them had their dogs in the baskets.

And to all who are not feeling up to par, will say special prayers to the Goddess for you!!!

Luv

Mary, that was Canandaigua.  BEAUTIFUL place, but I think it was drizzling that night.  Sharon and Chrisie drove down and so did Diane and I.  We hardly saw you guys at all cuz Sharon and Chrisie had to leave right after the concert, and you guys didn't get there until the concert was about halfway over.

I think you hit Chautauqua the next night, on the way home.

Hi Jan!   Are you able to paint lately?  How are the feral kitties doing?  Not liking those doggies getting in their "space," I'm sure! :lol

I am late today as I couldn't get on the site, thought it was down but noticed no one else seemed to have  problem.  Kept getting that white page that it was not available. 

MARY, so sorry you are hurting so bad.  You have to wonder if the pain will ever end.  I pray that it will. 

BECKY, good for you for using those crock pots.  I love mine and it is great to get that dinner on in the morning and not have to worry about it and than when you are tired and hungry hey DINNER IS DONE! 

KAREN, yep  you should try the crock pot meals you would find they come in handy and they are so good.  SASHA sent me thru email a bunch of crock pot recipes will send them to you if you want them.

Mary...didn't they give ya anything good for that pain? Maybe they can call in something liquid for you to make it easier to swallow right now! Can't imagine tryin to get one of them big horse pills down when your throat hurts!  :hugg

What's all this business about crack pot dinners? :scratch
Sounds like somethin I could make! :bouncy :bouncy :lol

So...Clay is touring with Ruben? pfft. I don't really wanna see Ruben! (Sorry Ruben) so if I only wanna see Clay can I just buy half a ticket and only watch Clay's half? If I promise to close my eyes & ears when Ruben's on? :bigsmile :bigsmile

Ohhh . . . I'll have to decline for tonight . . . I'm getting ready to go to the Hospital Family Fun Night at the Community Fitness Center.  The place is reserved for just the hospital staff and their families and fitness center staff and their families.  Snack foods (supper) and we can swim, use the fitness equipment, racquetball or go on the walking track!  I know for sure that I'll eat and then I plan to use some of the "gentle" equipment.  :smile

MARY - Hope your pain meds kick in soon!  :hugg

KIMMY - Your Granny seems to be comfortable.  Hugs for her AND for you and Betty!  :hugg :hugg

My daughter and some of my coworkers use their crock pots a lot!  Nice to come home and have supper all cooked and ready to eat!  :bouncy :bouncy

SHIRLEY -  I know you enjoy your crockpot recipes  . . . and good food!  :hugg  Will you see Preston this weekend??

KAREN - You have such a good memory about concerts and trips and long drives.  Looking forward hopefully for some more concert news for this summer!  :bouncy :bouncy

BRENDA -  I did the same thing you did . . . . woke up early , but stayed in bed and caught a few more ZZZZ's!  Glad your surgery is scheduled.  Positive vibes sent your way!  :hugg

PEGGY - Does hubby still do a lot of the cooking at your house?  Does it seem different being home these past months?  Loved the picture of your last puzzle. :clap

JAN!  Nice to hear from you.  Stop in anytime.  Enjoy the Brahm's concert with your son!! :bouncy :bouncy

MARILYN - Getting ready for another special Sunday with your precious ones??  Derek spent some time over here this afternoon.  I talked him into going shopping with me.  He ended up with a new book and some donut holes!  :smile   They grow too fast.

SOULSISTAH - Happy 21st birthday!  :bouncy :bouncy :bouncy

BECKY - If I remember . . . . aren't you actually spending a few days at home???  Hope Dad is feeling better.  Your life sure has been unpredictable . . . when it comes to where you land!  :wink

EVELYN - Are you still doing a lot of reading??  Do you have your plans all set for your Florida vacation?? :hugg

Chautagua was a hoot!!!!!  That's when we saw Marilyn in action. Don't get in her way when she's after good seats at a Clay concert.  :clap  We stood in line for over FOUR HOURS that day, just so we could charge in and get good seats. Interesting place in beautiful country.

Brenda, sounds good to me. I'll find someone to stay with Dad if I have to no matter where the concerts are. As for Ruben, his music didn't do anything for me, but he and Clay are fun together. And there a lot of BIG names out there who are having trouble sustaining solo tours.

Mary, he sure did come close, didn't he? I remember being shocked that he really IS so tall, and so much better looking up close and personal. Good memories. Looking forward to more of the same and without you being so uncomfortable (to put it mildly).

And Marilyn was right about the Holiday Inn. It was really nice, especially after the place we stayed at in Canandaiga the night before.

Kim, glad you and Betty could get away today without feeling guilt. You need to get fresh air and relax if you can.

Okay...I'm confused with Chautauqua and Canandaigua...   The place where we had to run for tix was .. where?  If Canandaigua was where we ALL went, those were assigned seats..no running.  We had GREAT seats but missed the first half.  So...which place IS it?   :nixweiss:

If you're looking for a REALLY touching song by Crystal, try this one: 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WClBXSrBUk&feature=related

It's an original song and it looks like she's breast feeding a baby there...(?), but it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.  She's sort of like a reincarnation of Eva Cassidy.  If you haven't heard any of her music, let me know and I'll send you an mp3...guarantee you'll love it.

Had fun with my little grandbabies today.  They SO fill my heart with joy and love!

(Just looked up both places.  Canandaigua is assigned seating and Chautauqua was the running place)

MORNING LADIES!!!!!!!

SHARON, just over at the OCD to have breakfast with  you all.  Always have to see what my friends Frankie and Prissy and Glory  are up to.  Love those gals.  Can not believe my luck but sunshine again today.  I saw where it will get to be in the 50's next week.  UNHEARD of here in northern Michigan this time of year. Hope you have a great day today my friend.

MARY, thinking of you today.  I am  hoping your pain will get less every day.  I know how tired you are of waking up and going to sleep with pain.   Hope you are getting the wonderful sunshine I am getting this morning.

KIM, I understand what you are saying about Joey and your grandma.  That is how I felt about my children and my mother.  Did not want them to see her or remember her like she was when she passed away.  I think maybe they understand now why I discouraged them from coming to see her at the end.  You are a good and kind person and I loves ya KIM!!  :hugg

BARB, sounds like you are busy as usual .  That is great you have your work and social and family life.  Keeps you busy and active which adds up to being HAPPY!!!   :hugg

BRENDA and MARILYN,  :hugg thinking of you both and have a good Sunday.  Glad you got to see the kids yesterday Marilyn.  To bad it is once a week only. DYLAN's mom is crazy not to take advantage of a wonderful grandma like  you . 

BECKY, I thought you home also doing your taxes.  Don't know how you are doing it all.  Now are you living at your dad's or at your new condo you bought?????????????????

Sharon - The boys are all involoved. Jonathan and Dylan are ushering, Braeden and Camden will help Payten down the aisle ... he's the ring bearer. Cierra (Joe's niece) is my flower girl and Joe's nephew Brent is a groomsman. My matron of honor is my sister and his sister Dawn and my cousin Stephanie are bridesmaids. His best man is his best friend Mike and my brother in law Lloyd is the other groomsman. We have a lot to do in less than a week! I'll keep you all updated.

Good morning everyone!  :wave

Good morning, all!  Hope everyone is enjoying a beautiful sunny day...AGAIN! 

There was an Adam video???  Where?  And...now I'm REALLY confused about the Clay concert coming up.  Is it in Canandaigua or Chautauqua?  (I just love type those finger-tangling names... :lol )

Wish I was going to see my grandbabies again today.   :j_sad1:  We took them outside to play yesterday and they had SO much fun.  Hope they get to play out again today since it's so beautiful and they need the vitamin D!!!

Anyway...gonna go roust up something for breakfast.  TTYL!

Kimmy, praying for granny today. Hope she is peaceful. Hugs for you and Betty.
I am sure that once I start healing the pain will lessen. I am sleeping a lot, just letting the pills work. I am going to take a nice hot shower shortly and let the water run over my sore shoulders.
Brenda, glad you are getting your surgery scheduled again. We have to get well so we can do some Clay Treking!!! I miss it all so much.
Shirley, I know you understand my pain, as I understand yours. I have been in pain for most of my life but there is pain and then there is debilitating pain. I can not stand anything that keeps me down. Poor Paul last night, he was trying to give me some ideas on how to ease the pain and I was just crabby and smart mouthy as can be.  Finally I just told him what I really wanted was to be left alone, I was crabby and was not going to be very nice, period. He understood. When I am like this I just want to be left alone. When I need something I will call for him. Boy do I sound like a beyotch!!!!! Guess I am crabby again today. :blush
Anyone wants to go to NY to see Clay as long as I am able, I will go! Not crazy about Ruben but I am crazy about all of you and the fun times we have. That is what it is all really about.
I have to go.  I can not even stand my own self right now! :bang I am going to take some meds, a shower and if I am in a better mood I will be back. Sorry! :bduh :bduh :bduh

Morning everyone  :hugg


Kim - Glad to know you and your mom are taking a (small) break.  Sometimes you just have to so you can stay strong. 


PEGGY - Does hubby still do a lot of the cooking at your house?  Does it seem different being home these past months?  Loved the picture of your last puzzle. :clap



Barbara - Yup!  Hubby's still the cook.  I've been enjoying it ever since he's been retired.  :yum
It did take us some time to adjust after I got laid off.  He's used to doing his own thing all day long. 
I started another puzzle last night.  Another duzy.  I'll post the picture when I'm done again.   :slick


Mary - Hope that the pain gets more bearable for you.  :comfort


Well, I best be getting my arse moving or else I'll never get anything done today before I start my puzzle again.   :bigsmile

PEGGY, sure is good  you like to do puzzles otherwise I bet you would be ready to go back to work.  I know you are a brain don't try and tell me otherwise .   No one can do puzzles that fast!!!!!!  :lol  Are you getting this beautiful sunshine down there too?

MARY, I sure understand how you feel.  The Vicodin doesn't seem to be managing my discomfort so I have decided to go down to the first pill I started taking the codein/tylonel and see if that helps at all.  I am worrying about the vicodin and what it may be doing to me.  Wonder if it is causing the constant tears and the shaking hands.  I will see how it goes today.  Starting to wonder what the  pain is causing and what the pain meds are causing.  Sure hope  you have a restful evening after your shower.

Shirley - I think you and Mary are between a rock and a hard place as the saying goes.  You are both in so much pain and then the pain meds have strange effects on you , so you end up not knowing what to do. I've been so worred about the effects on both of you of so much pain killers and yet I know that you both need some relief. I can only pray for both of you.

Barb - I still read but I also work sudoku puzzles , so if I'm not doing one in my spare time, I'm doing the other.

Marilyn - love hearing about your time with the grandkids .  I'll bet they love it. The weather has been beautiful and it's great to be outside in it.

Sharon - thanks again for the tea, honey.

Well, I'm off to watch some TV. Don't know what's on tonight, but I'll find something.

Mornin! :wave

Have any of you ever heard of this pain patch thing? Ma's good friend has one and at first it seemed to be doing a real good job of managing her pain. She was on sooo many meds prior to it so when the doctor swapped her to it, she thought she'd FINALLY found something that worked. Problem now is it appears her memory is being affected. :bang So the doctor has given her a memory patch now to try & help keep her memory from degenerating further.  Now she's starting to look like a lil quilt! :lol
Hard to say for sure if the pain patch is causing the memory problems or if it's just something that is happening...but she didn't have the problem til she put it on soooooo.......

 :nixweiss:

Missed the awards last night...caught a bit in the beginning and got too sleepy to watch it...but I'm glad Sandra won! :bouncy
Wonder where Jesse was? Didn't see him.

Post by: Pauluka96 on March 08, 2010, 06:18:56 AM
Kim, it depends on what type of med is in the pain patch. Usually it is a pretty strong medicine so that could cause the memory problems. Is it on for 72 hours at a time?
I slept almost the whole day yesterday. On the couch, then on the bed, then back on the couch. I don't care, I really do not have anything I have to do and no little ones to take care of. The pain seems somewhat better today but what is driving me crazy is I feel as if there is a lump in my throat. I woke up with a start a couple of times during the night feeling as if I were choking. I really do not like the feeling one bit! I am eating popsicles and drinking cold liquids to keep the swelling down but when I fall asleep I can't suck a popsicle! I hate being like this. But the pain is better so that is a good thing. And I have been awake for over 2 hours :purpbana :clap :bigsmile.
Kimmy, I hope you find your granny resting peacefully today and make sure to take care of Betty and yourself too. I read your facebook comment and you are both supporting each other in more ways than you know. Prayers for you.
Shirley, hope you will be gone most of the day doing fun, what you wanna do stuff. :hugg

I'll hafta ask her next time.

Good morning (almost afternoon), all!

Mary......he is SOOOOOOOOO adorable!!!!  Want to hug him!

Shirley...hope you are out enjoying the sunshine and having a WONDERFUL time (wonder if McD's is expecting a luncheon visitor).

Kim..don't know nuthin' 'bout birthin' babies pain patches.  I'm sure Mary is giving you good info, though.  She's worked in a doctor's office for .. umm... I think about 89 years.  :lol  Anyway, I hope your granny is resting comfortably...pain sucks.

Hey, Mary...are you able to read at all with your eye problem?  I've been wondering about that for a while (since you told us about it).  Does it seem to be any better since your last shots?

Meesa....you DO know we're expecting lots of pictures from the wedding, right????????  Did you say where you're going on your honeymoon?

Anyway...gotta curl my hair and get over to Sam's Club.  I want one of those chickens...been craving that!

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Post by: Pauluka96 on March 08, 2010, 11:35:05 AM
The patch I am thinking about does stay on all the time, it is called Fentanyl or Duragesic and you leave it on for 72 hours then put a fresh one on. It is quite strong and could cause forgetfulness. Heck I forget on Percocet, they are, like codeine and stuff like that, they make you "high" in a sense. Back in the good old days of "sex, drugs and rock n roll" sometimes people didn't remember who they rock n rolled with or what kind of drug they did sex with. Not speaking from personal experience however. Just heard it somewhere. That IS my story and I'm stickin to it!
Marilyn, I can read if the print is larger than normal. It really depends.
I know I am prejudiced but that is just the sweetest baby. Not sure Gina thinks so this morning though. He peed in her face :clap :clap :purpbana :purpbana :bouncy :bouncy :lmao :lmao :bigsmile I told her ALL baby boys do it sooner or later!  Adam had chipmunk cheeks like that till he was about 9. Kim, I just want to hold him and never let him go. There is just something extra special about him. Must have something to do with the miracle part. Even the nurses loved him. He squeaks!!!!!!!! It is the cutest thing :clap

Mary, I think you should call your surgeon and ask him, please.

Kim, how is grandma today? Am thinking of you.

Busy working. Spent the last two days working and running to Julie's to decorate for Emily's 13th BD, which was yesterday. Dan had her friends make up posters for her. We made a huge card for her and a huge sign for the front yard, hung up balloons, etc. Dan is more creative than I knew - I was very impressed. It was a LOT of work and I was exhausted (even though Dan did the bulk of it). That Cricut machine is wonderful, BTW. Emily was very happy when she came home last night, laughing and giggling. She loved what we did. She got a touch phone from her mom and dad, plus the skiing trip. She was also thrilled with that.  She loved skiing except she had a really bad crash. She had never skied before but she was skiing off the second most difficult hill at Boyne Highlands, hit two poles and banged up her leg. It is really swollen up but nothing broken. She got back up and went back up the mountain and skied down it again (Julie said she had to get "right back on the horse"). WHat funny stories they had - especially Julie who got to the top of that hill with Emily and said she was not going to go down, sat down in the snow while Emily went up and down three times before she finally had to ski down (no other way to get down). It was hysterical. Caity, unfortunately, came home sick.

Mary, Chase is just soooo adorable - should be in a baby magazine or something. Those cheeks are classic Gerber.

Gotta get back to work - am going back to Julie's house in a while for dinner. Have to pick Cristien up on Friday so that costs me a whole day of work (assuming there is work). Chris is out of town again and will back Friday night. Need to get as much done as I can while the sun shines., so to speak.

(HOpe to watch the wedding tonight - will record it at any rate). How about Brooke Berke as the replacement for Samantha Harris on DWTS - I was hoping it would be Melissa. 

PS: DId anyone else notice that Julie Roberts and the girl from Up in the Air who was nominated for best actress had the same gown on? Disaster! No one mentioned it on TV.

I am off (unfortunately)!


Title: Re: Motor City Red Thong Mafia #47 (R Rated)
Post by: *joemomma on March 08, 2010, 12:15:57 PM
yep Mary...that sounds like what she's got! She has it on all the time but changes to a fresh one after a few days.

Well she's removed it for now...seeing if her memory improves if she doesn't have it. Just don't know if she'll keep it off if she gets the pain too bad. :icon_eek:

Mary can ya call & ask if it's normal to feel that? Might just be swelling you're feeling I guess but I dunno! :scratch

And I agree about Chase 100,000 %! Just a precious lil miracle! Ooooh he squeaks! GAH that is cute! :bouncy :bouncy

B...they knocked granny out again. Had to. It's the only time she is calm and comfortable..... :sad

Well at least the sun is out! Hope it lasts...we need to get our Spring Break goin at work. I've missed so much work lately, need it to be slammed when I get back!

Have you heard his music?????  Amazing...  Unfortunately, he is deceased now and died at a very young age (38).  He was morbidly obese (got up to 770 pounds at one time) and died of respiratory problems from that obesity.  Anyway...if you haven't heard his music, lemme know and I'll send you an mp3 or somethin'....if'n you want.

Got home a little while ago.  Had to go for some xrays of the ribs and some other blood tests.  Report said fractured top rib on both sides.  The rib on the right is starting to heal and is three weeks old and the fracture on the left rib just happened the other day when I bent over to tie my shoes.  I had to ask for a refill on my pain meds and that is when doctor wanted me to get the xrays.  Geez do you think he thought I just wanted to take pain pills for the sake of taking them.   :bang 

BETH, how long does Dave have to spend whole weeks in Florida?  Don't think I would like that in the least.  Maybe a day or two but that is it. 

MARY, I would be on the phone to your doctor about that lump.  I have that a lot mostly when I eat and I never had surgery around my neck.  I don't know what it is.  My doctor had felt of my throat and said he didn't feel anything, don't know if he can really tell like that or if he is just not interested in the throat.  Don't want your throat to get so swollen during the night though.  You might be allergic to something you had during surgery or something  you are taking right now.

KIM,  :hugg

Wonder where Jesse was? Didn't see him.

I too am THRILLED Sandra won!!  I just love her!
I was worried that Jesse didn't come, too, Kim.   Didn't see him at all......until they announced the winning actress, and he was right there, by her side!! :clap
YAY SANDRA!!!  She gave a nice speech, too. 
 So glad Meryl didn't win again.  She's won enough, and that's not the kind of part that usually wins (it was the Julia Child movie).

Sharon,  Jason Castro did sing a Hawaiian type version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on AI, cuz he was playing a ukelele!  Now, whether it was   the "Kamakiwiwoohoo" one or not, I don't know! :wink

Nope, no Molly & Jason wedding for me.   I am pleasantly surprised that Jason stuck with her all the way to a wedding.  I just figured he'd dump her after awhile, like Melissa!

I'm not that fond of Melissa, so not unhappy that she's not "the One."  I think Brooke Burke will do a good job, I guess we'll have to wait a few more weeks to see!

Aw, little "squeaky" Chase!!  So cute!  Is he nursing, Mary, or on the bottle (since he was at the hospital so long....)?

Shirley, did you at least get to eat a Big Boy? 
That didn't sound right.
Shirley, did you at least get to order and enjoy a Big Boy?
Hmm.  Sounded weird too.
Anyway, did you get to EAT??????  I always like a Swiss Miss, chili, and chocolate milk shake when I go there!  But usually just get the Swiss Miss, Diet Coke, and steal a couple of Justin's fries! :lol

SHARON, no, no McDonalds today stopped by a BIG BOY  today to eat lunch.  Not very good I hate to say.  Ordered blue cheese dressing for a salad, they said they were out of it.  Ordered some onion rings, they said they were out of that too.   :bang Started out wrong I think.

See everyone tomorrow.


Is it a Frisch's Big Boy? When I was a little girl...we had a Frisch's at the end of our street. Ma went there almost every night for strawberry pie! While she ate it..I climbed the huge Big Boy out front. For YEARS I bet anyone drivin by just thought that place had a Big Boy with a Little Girl on his head statue! :lmao :lmao

Geez...I was climbing Big Boys when I was 7...now THAT really don't sound right eh Karen!? :lmao :lmao

BETH, how long does Dave have to spend whole weeks in Florida?  Don't think I would like that in the least.  Maybe a day or two but that is it. 

Probably for a whole year.  I don't know that I like it either, but hey, he at least has a job, so I'm not complaining.

Mary - Chase is simply too precious for words.  Also, when I had work done and they went down my throat, it was scratchy and sore for at least 10 days. It's a horrible feeling, but there was nothing that could be done, but to let it heal. Ask your doctor about it.

Kim - Yes that pain patch could definitely cause a loss of memory. If she's older , even when she gets off the patch, it will take some time for the memory to come back the way it was , so don't expect it to be right away. As I said before, older people act differently on drugs.

Shirley - honey, I feel so sorry for you. Breaking bones just by bending down. How painful for you.

Sharon - are you home for a while or do you have to go out selling again.

Evelyn, business is always slow this time of year, it's scattered here and there.  I will always be out selling, but in the Spring the best months are April, May and June.  Right now I have few dates to be out selling so I am enjoying the time I have :wink We really do about 70% of our sales in the fall/winter, been the same for 20 years.

Peggy,
Thanks for the picture!! :hugs


I have to jump in to this Big Boy discussion!!  We had a Kip's Big Boy in Fort Worth.  When my sisters and I were children and would go spend the night at my aunt and uncle's house, we would almost always go to Kip's Big Boy restaurant for dinner.  The Big Boy hamburger platter with a salad and fries, and that famous Big Boy Thousand Island dressing that they put on the burger as well as the salad!!  Of course, a hot fudge sundae for dessert!  And the hot fudge was in a little container that you would pour on your ice cream. :yum

When I was a student at TCU (Texas Christian University), often several of us would go to lunch at Kip's Big Boy.  It was just a few blocks from the university.  When I became engaged to my first husband, whom I met at TCU, yep, we went to Kip's Big Boy.  Even (second husband) Skip and I had a few meals there, too.

More than 20 years ago (between husband 1 and husband 2),  I had jaw surgery and my mouth was wired shut.  Yes, I still went to Kip's Big Boy with a friend.  I don't remember what I ordered but I'm pretty sure it wasn't the burger platter and hot fudge sundae!! :lol

Sadly, it has been gone for several years now!  A Denny's took over that restaurant.   I will always have fond memories of Kip's Big Boy and that famous thousand island dressing!  (Hot fudge sundaes, too!) :wink

Kim,
It never occurred to me or my sisters to try to climb up the Big Boy!!  We were just not as adventuresome as you!!  :lmao

KIM, climbing Big Boy's when you were 7?????  How funny!  I bet your mom had her hands full keeping track of you.  :lol :smile 

KAREN, You had what my son had when he was here, a Swiss Miss.  I am addicted to the Slim Jim's there.  I wish I wasn't as what they charge for them with fries is ridiculous.  Almost $9.00 now.  They aren't worth it.

How funny, you guys are so easy to entertain.   :lol :bigsmile  All I did was mention Big Boy and I got two pages of laughs. 

PRISSY, loved, loved your stories.  My goodness you sure know what pain is all about don't you.   Jaw surgery and your mouth wired shut and double knee surgery. I can imagine the pain you went thru.  By the way how is the pain in your knees doing?  Hope your back pain is still gone.  So happy to see you here on the RTM thread.

MARILYN, did you get your chicken  yesterday?  If so what did you have with it?  I love those chickens, so much you can do with them.  Chicken and Dumplings, chicken soup, creamed chicken on biscuits, on and on great meals from that cooked chicken.

BRENDA, hope you are continuing to get better.  I hope you are getting enough rest so you can get that surgery over with.

EVELYN, have you settled on a definite date to go to Bozena's?  Any plans this  year like another cruise?

SHARON, yep you will be smelling meatloaf.  Trying out a new recipe.  Two pounds of ground chuck, worstchi re sauce, garlic cloves, pack of dry onion soup mix, two eggs, 3/4 cup fine bread crumbs.  Mix and form into a loaf.  Cook for 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees.  Take out of oven and pat mashed potatoes on top of meat loaf and slices of Swiss cheese on top of mashed potatoes.  Put back in the oven until cheese has melted.  Take out of oven and let stand for ten minutes than slice into nice thick slices being careful to keep the potatoes on top of the meat loaf. 

Sounds interesting now I will see how it tastes.

Good morning everyone  :hugg


We had such a beautiful day yesterday, I had to go for a walk.  I am going to go and get dressed in a few so I can go for another one today before the clouds come and the rain starts.


Shirley - Your meatloaf sounds delicious! 


Wonder if Cindy is still having problems since she quit smoking.  Have been wondering how she is doing, she is always so busy.  Wonder if she is still :dance


Sharon - I totally understand how you feel about less income.  I'm in the same boat, just glad that I am still able to pay all my bills (including all the medical) now that I am not working. 


Talked to my daughter this morning, seems that Kaylee had a nightmare last night and I was in it!   :para 
She was stuck in a big puddle and couldn't get out.  Her daddy had already left so I had to go in and save her.   :bduh
This kid loves to jump in puddles.  Wonder what she was scared of?   :nixweiss:   Me?  Jamie seemed to think that I was there when daddy wasn't.  That's a good thing - I hope.   :bite

Well HELLO there Big Boy! :bouncy :bouncy

Don'tcha just wanna climb right up that boy?? Sit on his haid & wave at cars as they go by!???

You know ya do! :lol :bigsmile

Our Big Boy got stolen once!  Can't remember the details; had to be a big gang of teenage boys to move that guy I would think!  And  huge truck!
Anyway we got him back, somehow.
(Kim,  I just had a thought; you lived in Ohio when you were young, didn't you??  Did you have some big strong friends with a truck?? :para :para :lol)

Frisch's Big Boy was the place to "cruise" on Friday nights in my town!  We had the drive-in kind, park your car and order thru a speaker, and a waitress (NOT on roller skates) brought your order out.  People would cruise thru there, see who was there, park and mill around trying to meet people. 

Shirley, I haven't heard of a Slim Jim sandwich.  Guess it's been a couple of years since I ate at the one here in Chillicothe; is it something new they've added to the menu?

Prissy,  "Kip's" Big Boy?  I wonder if they have different names in different states?  It was Frisch's Big boy in Dayton and Chillicothe.  Sounds like all the Big Boys have the same menu tho.

Kimmie,  climbing Big Boys when you were 7??   :naughty  :lol

KAREN, no the Slim Jim is not new, it is one of their most popular items.  It is sliced ham with swiss cheese grilled on a Grecian seseme roll with lettuce, tomato and a special sauce.  It is addictive for sure and I can taste it now as I type.  If I could duplicate the roll they serve it on I would make it at home at least once a week.  :bigsmile  I bought a nice flat cut of corn beef and am going to fix corn beef and cabbage tomorrow with carrots and potatoes.  I think I will do it in the crock pot.  Than the next day it will be grilled Ruebens for sure.

PEGGY, will let you know about the meat loaf.  Just took it out of the fridge to let it warm  up a little and than in the oven it goes.  I think we will have a early dinner today so if you can make it I will set a plate for you. 

Hope Mary is doing better did not see her here this morning. 

BETH, when the kids are on spring break can't you go to Florida with Dave for the week????????? 

SHARON, wished I had more favorites on AI than I do, just can't seem to get into it this year.  No one really excites me at all.

PHILLY, gee two discs and only  $12 that is cheap.  Trying to figure out why that name for the title of the CD. 

BETH, to bad  Dave's company doesn't pay for at least half of your plane fare seeing they are keeping Dave away from his  family that much.   

Just finished dinner and I am stuffed, it was very good.  Was watching on the news and they were talking about Fosomax the drug to help your bones.  They are saying that it looks like this drug is making your bones worse and was showing people that had taken it for 8 years and more and there bones are just shattering while walking. They were talking about the pain and I knew what she was talking about.   You don't know who to trust anymore, like the drug companies just want money and don't care if the drug helps you or not.

Glad AI is on, something to watch.  It seems the Foodnetwork and House Hunters are nothing but reruns lately .

I am off to get ready for bed.  Takes me forever.  I timed myself  yesterday and it took me 17 minutes to put my slacks and a top on.  Good thing I am not in a hurry.  :bigsmile  See everyone tomorrow got to get ready for AI.

Shirley - I remember the slim jim's very, very well. Delicious.

Kim - Oh my goodness = you really took me back a lot of years. Yes, we had a sambo's here too. And they did very well. But they had to close them all, because of the name. Some people were offended. Remember?

Ya know....this felt like a loooong horrible time to us but really grandma got to stay home right til the end ....there was no years spent in a nursing home.  Only a week. And she never knew that's where she was.  She totally thought she was re-hab-ing. They sure made her think it too. :para

I hope the fact that that you kept her as comfortable as possible and were there with her and for her to the end will give you some comfort. My heart is with you, Betty and Joey.  :hugg :hugg :hugg

Karen, thanks for the Adam link - will listen to it later as I am, of course, late to check in for work.

Loved, loved, loved Crystal last night. I thought Siobhan was fantastic as well - voted for both of them.  I just don't see how anyone can beat Crystal this year, do you? Hey, I knew Crystal was from Ohio but didn't know she lives in Toledo - she is my hometown contestant.

Simon was on some show the other night and said Adam should have won last year - duh!

Hey, Evan is looking really good on DWTS - saw some previews on ET last night. They say he is the one to beat.

Gotta run and check if I have any work today. BBL

Shirley I am getting really, really pissed now. I can not see any reason that you should have to live in so much pain. Please let the doctor up the meds or if he won't go somewhere else. If the pills make you sleepy you will get used to them. I know somewhere there is a pill that will give you the relief you so deserve. I wish so badly that I lived closer to you or vice versa, I would take you to the doctor I worked for and he would prescribe meds till he found one that you both could work with. There is so much out there something has got to work. They have terminal cancer patients that they can keep comfortable for Pete's sake! Shirley, he can write you say, a weeks worth at a time and if that doesn't do it, try another kind for a week. Also you sometimes need to let them sort of build up in your system. Sometimes you have to take something everyday regularly and then take something else along with it for break through pain. And these broken ribs!!! I sure would love to see your medical record!!! That is not acceptable, braking a rib just bending over!! Maybe I am talking over my head when I really do not know everything about your problems and what all but I do know you do not HAVE to be in that kind of pain! Period!
I am better. I only got up once to take a pain pill. My main complaint is this feeling like a lump in my throat. Shirley, I just had someone cut out bone, put in cadaver bone, put screws in my bone and cut a 2 inch or larger whole in my neck and I am not in that kinda pain :bang :bang Don't get me started again, lol  I just hate to see you suffering so much.
Shirley, thank you for the beautiful card. It is beautiful. Love the colors!
Kim, you really are something else. With all you have been dealing with you have not lost sight of your sense of humor. Amazing. When I have problems I get crabby :bigsmile

Shirley, that meatloaf recipe yesterday sounded so good. After my hand surgeon doctor appointment this afternoon I had Paul run me to the grocery store for the fixings for meatloaf. It is all mixed and ready to put in the over a little later. Betcha I see my son and the girls tonight. Meatloaf is both of my sons favorite, when I make it I use the pan I make my turkey in, I use about 8-9 pounds of meat.

MARY,  :hugg no your post didn't make me upset as I know it was written because you love me.  I love you too.  :hugg I have been diagnoised at this hospital and the hospital in Saginaw with end stage COPD and Pulmonary Hypertension.  Like they said there is no cure all they can do is keep me as comfortable as possible.  To keep me breathing the past two  years I have been on high doses of steriods which in turn has destroyed my bones along with the normal osteoporsis.   Yep like they say I can break a bone just sneezing or coughing hard. my bones are so brittle.  That is where I am getting the pain now is from the rib that I fractured the other day.  It is hard to breath but it will get less painful I will just hang in there but I know it will happen again.  I have morphine here but I select not to take it rather just stick with the vicodin and suffer I guess.  I have thought about not posting about my health any more or not posting period but I would miss everyone to much so will just not talk about health problems anymore.  Glad you felt good enough to make that meat loaf.  I think  your pain threshold is higher than mine too.

Anyone remember Matt Buckstein?
Of the "Brokenote Cowboys" about 3 years ago on American Idol?

Here he is now.  He's so darn cute, and I think he has a perfect "country" voice.  It's too bad he got cut out of the Top 24 the following year when he tried out again; I think he could've done quite well!!

Go here:  Matt Buckstein at Durango Songwriter's Festival 3/10 (http://www.casttv.com/video/l8erdy/matt-buckstein-2010-durango-songwriter-s-expo-sb-video)

I also found out he had an acting gig recently, it was fun to go into the network, find the episode, and watch him on it.  He's only in the first 4 minutes of the show.  If you are interested, go here and start watching the episode called "Miles to Go."  You have to watch a commercial first.
 Matt Buckstein, Actor (http://www.usanetwork.com/series/inplainsight/video/fullep/index.html?id=1130968)  He's the first actor you see, driving a truck, his name is Frank.

Just leaving work. :icon_rolleyes:  I've got a head cold and a tickling cough . . . ANNOYING! :para

It is foggy and rainy out . . .but I'm on my way to a short meeting regarding my high school class reunion this summer.  We just need to update a few addresses, etc.  We sent out postcards to each class member just before Christmas to tell them to circle July 24th. 

I want to be home before IDOL.  It is an hour later tonight, so I think I'll make it. 

I read back a bit on our thread . . . and I seem to like the same gals that you people like.  Lily was disappointing last night.   Hope a few of the guys "shine" tonight.  :blush

MARY - Glad you are doing better.  Loved hearing about the meatloaf.  :bigsmile

SHIRLEY - Don't you ever stop posting here.  Gentle hugs . . . . :hugg

SHARON, KAREN, MARILYN, EVELYN, PEGGY, KIM, BETH, BRENDA, (and everybody)! Grab a hug.  Guess we always can use one or two of those!  :hugg :hugg :hugg :hugg :hugg :hugg

I finally saw the girls today, and was really surprised at how much I enjoyed Lacey last night!  :icon_eek: Perfect song choice made a big difference!  :clap  Didi also did a great job, along with Crystal and Siobhan.  YAY!! 
Still not into Lilly, and Katelyn disappointed after doing so well last week.
I think you called them right when you said Katie and Paige could be leaving tomorrow.

Is anyone coming over to watch with you tonight, Sharon?  

Barbara,  hope you get a good night's sleep tonight!  Colds are no fun, and they seem to drag on and on.  Hope you make it home by 9:00!

Karen, Lacey is so attractive also, beautiful eyes, and love that red hair, suits her!!! You know I haven't really gotten a guy fave, maybe Alex.  I liked Andrew but he has been disappointing.  Lee Dewyze guy is good too.  I hope they stop with the Kara being a cougar with Casey :naughty let him sing, don't keep reminding us that you have the hots for him.
I'm watching alone tonight Karen, cuddled in bed with my babies :kitty :kitty :kitty How is Miss Lucy???

Hello Barbara Ann :wave I really like Alex, his voice has some je ne sais quoi :wink I think Kara was touched by big Mike, whaddya think :para Love that song, he was just alright for me singing it :nixweiss: I think Andrew and Todrick need to go.
Why is it this year that most of them sound the same or something, boys and girls :bduh so many quirky voices

Sharon - I so agree with you - They all just   sound so-so. Nothing spectacular as far as I'm concerned.

BTW - Hope you and your Mom have a great time and win lots of money.

Kim - First - I truly, truly admire you and your mom and the care and love you gave your grandma. I'm sure she was so glad you were there with her right to the end. I'm so sorry for your loss, but I know your granny loved you and your mom taking such great care of her. How lucky she was and how lucky you both were to have her in your life.

Next - Kim - you had me laughing because our whole family says "ant" not "aint". I wonder why that is. I know it's aunt with an "ah" sound in the beginning , but we've never said anything but "ant".  You are certainly one in a million. No wonder we all love you so much.

Shirley - Honey we love you so much. You will never know how much. I guess that's why we are always saying to try this or that. We would miss you terribly if you didn't post and if you didn't tell us how you were, we would worry so much, we'd probably have to fly up just to see if you were OK. So, you'd better keep us posted.

Mary - I'm praying your throat gets better soon. Must be a horrible feeling to always feel as though something is stuck in your throat. What has the dr. said? Keep us posted.
I can't even imagine making 8 lbs of meatloaf - well, I guess I could make 8 lbs. of meatballs. :lol :lol  Stay well, honey.

What the heck??  Simon thought Michael Lynche's performance was the BEST EVER on the Idol stage???  Ellen said HE'S now the one to beat?? :bduh  Kara's crying, she's so moved?  Honestly, I walked out in the middle to do something cuz I was bored.  I thought he was better last week.  They sure did pimp him tonight. :icon_rolleyes:

Sharon, I'm not fond of Andrew either.  And as much as I wanted to see Todrick do something great, he picked a song that seemed wrong for him again.  I don't honestly know who will leave the guys tomorrow.  I didn't think Tim Urban would last, but he keeps getting better!
The judges are also really pushing the young kid; he started out awful, way off-key.  Justin even turned the sound off in the computer room after the first 10 or 15 seconds (one of our monitors is also a little TV receiver).  And yet he got lots of praise from the judges.

Mary, could it be when you had the tube down your throat during surgery, that it caused swelling?  Seems like the swelling should be going down by now!!

I agree about Lacey, Sharon, she is a very striking girl!  Kara has backed off from the cougar thing, it seems. :clap  I agreed with Simon about Casey tonight; that the first week was Casey's best week, this was second best.

Miss Lucy LuLu is healing quite nicely!  She will get her stitches out either Friday or Monday.   How 'bout your kitties, has the fur been flying much lately? :para

OMG that was a bunch of hooey! I got up after a few seconds of it to do dishes! Kara CRIED!?? Oh COME ON!!!!!! :bduh :bduh

I like Casey but he is playing it way too safe I think. Maybe my problem is that after LAST year's Idol...and Adam knockin our socks off every week...it was so fun to watch just to see what he'd do. Now they are all singin the same kinda stuff...nothing has that WOW factor. so it's kinda boring to me. The boys are more boring than the girls though. :para

Well I'm still up at the crack, but I went to bed earlier so at least I got a little bit of sleep. Yesterday I ran on maybe 3 hours sleep total so I was a blathering idiot all day. :icon_eek:

Good morning everybody  :wave

Dave comes home from Florida today.  First the kids have school, then Diana has gymnastics/ballet, then it's dinner, and then I pick him up. 

I was beyond excited for Dave's parents last night.  Where he's at in Florida is not too far from where his parents are at.  He even drove through their city twice....so, they decided to get together.  Dave, the person who acts like his parents raised him to be so independent that he doesn't need them or want to talk or spend time with them, actually went to their house yesterday and was able to spend time with them  :woohoo.  Oh, and his parents' best friends only live 2 houses down from them, so Dave was able to see them too!  :woohoo.  They (parents and friends) spent so much time together when Dave and his sisters were growing up that Dave and his sisters actually refer to his parents friends as Aunt and Uncle even though they aren't related at all. 

I know that this just made Dave's mom sooo happy to see Dave.  Now Dave is REALLY trying to find a way for me and the kids to be down their over Easter.  I just don't see how we can do it though.  We just simply don't have $1200 extra dollars.  Maybe I can get three of Kim's bird friends to fly up to MI and then fly us back down to FL  :lmao  :nixweiss:.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!!!!

SHARON, was just reading all the posts and see you are taking a little trip today with sis and mom.  How wonderful !!!  I am so excited for  the three of you.  What a marvelous time you all will have.  I so wish I was part of your family and lived near by so I could enjoy such wonderful companionship.   You are always planning something of interest either good food or nice side trips.  I can hardly wait to hear about the trip and the food when you get home.

Well this is my least favorite Idol season.  No big deal if I miss it or not.  They keep screwing with the time and never know when it is on 8:00 or 9:00.  I have settled on two to watch the others I don't care about in the least.  I like Alex for the guys and Siobhan for the girls.  I think a good singer can sing anything and these two can.  Actually Simon seems like the only sane one there this year.  Randy offers nothing at all, Ellen is pretty good, Kara is a sicko and Simon is pretty normal this year. 

KIM,  :hugg

BETH, if I had the money I would buy your airfare as you deserve a little vacation too.  Dave sounds like three of my kids  :bang and believe me I didn't raise them to be so independant they couldn't spend time with us.  I doubt if his mother did either.  They sure can cause moms a lot of heartache with their attitudes.

Hey, Sharon, you didn't say it was VIAGRA Falls!!!  We ALL wanna be invited!! :bouncy
Hope you have wonderful weather, and everyone wins something!!  I wonder if the falls are partially frozen?  We went once around this time of the year, and it was so pretty, partially frozen!

Kim,  you may be an oxymoron, but you're OUR oxymoron!! :lol :hugg :hugg
Sorry you're not sleeping well, I guess it's to be expected right now with so much turmoil going on in your life.  David and I have been having trouble sleeping too; I've been averaging around 5 hours of sleep every night.  L'il Jamal wants me to get up at 5:30am no matter what time we hit the sheets! :icon_eek:  And the l'il guy naps all day long then, while I can't do that; too much to do. 

Beth, glad your hubby is reconnecting with his family!  We try to visit our parents around once a month.  That doesn't seem like much, but they're both about 80 miles away from us.   We both feel pretty close to our parents, but I'm terrible about calling (so is my mom so I guess I learned it from her??)

I took our tax stuff down to the accountants at closing time, 5 pm Monday.  Whew!  Good to have that done!
Then next day I got a letter, my Unemployment Tax Audit has been scheduled for April 7.  Aaargh.  Should be nothing to worry about, we are definitely in compliance, it's just stressful having this guy in my house, and asking for stuff I have to go find.  And he'll be here the whole day (this happened to us back in the 1990's too).  It's funny, they only found that we owed them an additional $13 back then.  Do they really think it's worth it to audit us again?? :nixweiss:

Kim,  this Big Mike thing reminds me of Season 2, when they pimped Ruben.  Didn't think he was "all that," either, and look where his career went after he won.  :icon_rolleyes:

Last week, Lee was the guy they said had the best male voice by a mile. :icon_rolleyes:  Hope people remembered that and voted for him.   I think Casey played it a little too safe last night too. 

They make the big deal about the Top 12, but really it's the Top 10 that's important; you get paid to tour then!

Shirley,  I like your two favorites a lot, too!  Nobody really has the stage presence that Adam had last year.  The only other season I remember someone with a lot of stage presence was Bo Bice.  Starting with "Spinning Wheel," I was riveted all season!

Well I'm off to get Mom, need to drop the doggie at the vet's for her, Holly is staying there, also going to the cemetery with roses for my guys, Saturday will be two years since Al passed :j_sad1: I also got solar lights for them so they don't have to be in the dark at night :hugg

My computer's been wacky and I've been feuding with Norton.  :bang

AND........MEESA.........I will be thinking of you Saturday and picturing you and Joe in my mind knowing how very happy you both are. Looking forward to photos when you can.

Got to go. Too much to do and not enough time to do it all. Fortunately, my kid have been calling and fortifying me.  :smile

A very good point, Sharon.   He also seems to be more likeable this year too, same reason I'll bet.  Or maybe it's because he's in love??? :kiss2  Saw a very cute interview of him on Jay Leno's show, and his fiance came out for a minute.  Beautiful girl!

Hi everyone - Shirley - I totally agree with you. This season is just so-so and I can't get enthused about it. They've had some good years, but this isn't one of them.

How are you feeling? I'll bet your ribs are still hurting.

Mary - how is your throat. Hope it's better.

Sharon - good luck on your trip.

Good afternoon ladies,

Got a really late start today so am just checking in.

Sharon, I assumeyou are already gone - I hope you have a terrific time and am certain you will. Haven't been to Niagara Falls for more years than I can remember but was awed by its magnificance. Enjoy - at least you should have a couple of good weather days.

I really liked four of the guys last night - and none of those four was Michael. I'm with you, Karen - I was bored and was completely dumbstruck when they all raved about him - what's with that? Shades of Ruben indeed. Can't wait to see who goes tonight. I think they all have talent. I really liked Tim Urban last night (Hallelujah - but I just love that song anyway). Am really hoping he makes it.

Kim (and other Twilight lovers - first clip from Eclipse coming out on June 30th - am so excited. Kristen looks much better than she did in the first two movies and Jake is just  :flame :flame :flame. Edward is no slouch either, come to think of it. Am anxious for the New Moon DVD to be released. I think I will take it to the hospital with me - should help pass time very pleasantly.

Peggy, hope the computer problem isn't too bad. I'm so blessed to have my son to take care of those problems for me - whew!

Later!

Was over at the shop for a while but came home early. It seems I'm getting a cold. My throat is sore and I have a runny nose , so I think I'll just take it easy and have a cup of tea with honey. Hope that helps.

Peggy, you are a riot, too.  :lmao :lmao :lmao  Glad your computer is fixed. Maybe you're onto something and Kim's computer infection is spreading. My desktop at home is NOT fixed yet. It has all my Quicken and Turbo Tax on it and it's going to be days before a new disk arrives. I wasn't feuding with Norton, I was frustrated. And still am. Brenda, you're lucky Chris is there when you need him.  :wink  Yes, Karen, I was at the cottage, but back at Dad's now.

Watched Idol tonight for the first time this year. Tried to remember all that you've been talking about, but it didn't work. It was fun to see Scott and Matt!!! I liked Todrick. Is that bad?  :bduh   :slick

Evelyn, hope you feel better tomorrow!!! Was your weather as beautiful as ours today? 65 degrees and sunny. Now it is pouring outside.

Next week is going to be interesting. I get to have Peyton for the day on Monday. Depending on how Dad is doing, I may bring her here for the day. Tuesday, Madisen is in a school play and we're going to go. Wednesday, their dad is being promoted and it will be an official ceremony and we are all going, including Dad. Haven't gotten results of his MRI yet.

Kim - Dave barely made it out of Florida last night.  His flight was supposed to arrive in Detroit at 8:40 pm and he didn't arrive until 11 pm. 

I don't really know a whole lot about Dave's Nonna.  His sisters would know.  Dave knows nothing! pfft! Men! If you ask my brother about my Grandma's family, he has no clue, but I know everyone!  :nixweiss:  :lol

Good Morning

*Philly brings breakfest. Stuffed French Toast with Guyere cheese  and County Sausages,(I hope spelling that right. :lol)  For those who observed lent, An Italian Frita with roasted veggies. Fruit cups, Coffee, Tea and Assorted juices.*

 And I have some sugar for you guys, only since I'm in work I can't download these screencaps of Clay's newest interview. Can some one post these screencaps here and the BLPT?

GETCLAYAIKEN (http://getclayaiken.com/index.php?showtopic=434&pid=49192&st=1860&#entry49192)

Tornadoes in Florida??
Kim,  you guys shouldn't have to worry about those; you got enough on your plate with hurricanes!!

My dad was born in Chavies, KY, about 80 miles south of where that picture was taken (I assume they lived there).  His dad was born around 1894.  I wonder if your grandpa could've been a cousin?  Grandpa only had one brother, Will.

Here is the picture of your granny and grandpa; I saved your Facebook picture to photobucket.

She's so pretty!

CLAY Interview (http://tags.myncblogs.com/2010/03/11/clay-aiken-talks-about-concert-special-wake-co-school-board/)

And here are a few screencaps from that interview!  Reminds me of the hairstyle he had for a TV Guide once.

Thank You Karen!!!

 :clap :clap :clap

Isn't that a great photo??!! It even "looks" Kentucky, don't it!??
This we figure must've been taken in the 1950's. They bought the Packard brand new. Was the first car ma & her brother ever drove!

They coulda been cousins or something Karen....I think grandpa was born probably around the same...1890's. Gramma was born in 1914, and she was probably 20 some years younger than him.
Ma thinks her dad was born in Concord...not sure though. We can easily trace grandma's side because it was so HUGE but grandpa's side is harder to find relatives. :bduh

Your welcome, Kim!  
That picture, the hat he's wearing, reminds me a lot of my grandpa!  Wish I had a picture to post of grandma and him, but my mom & dad have them all over in Dayton.
I think there's one of him and his new '56 Buick.  I drove that car to work when I was a senior! :icon_eek:  That thing was HUGE! 

Probably never know if we are 5th cousins twice-removed or whatever, Kim! :lol  I think too many of our people who know things are gone now.  Be nice to have a family tree done.

Is the weather calming down now? 
And are you back to work yet?

Beth, so glad Dave got home safely!  I hate flying through storms!


********IDOL SPOILER**************

I know a few people here are disappointed in Idol last night.  I know I am. 
All my faves got through except for Alex; and I REALLY wanted him to make it through!
Why couldn't they have TOP 13 again like last year????? :bduh :nixweiss:
I downloaded all three of his performances, whereas I didn't want ANY from Michael Lynche, Andrew Garcia, Tim Urban (I did like this week's performance tho), and ESPECIALLY Aaron Kelly.

BOO. :censor

Well at least I've still got a couple of guys I like, and a few girls.

PEGGY - I hope so, too.  We're on our second full day of rain . .  with more to follow. :slick  Thick and dangerous FOG!

KAREN - I feel the same about last night's Idol as you do.  I think BRENDA also said that she is not a fan of "big Mike".  Me, neither.  :hypno 

KIM - Can't see the pictures you guys are talking about . . . they are "blocked" on my work computer.  I'll peek at them when I get home.  :smile

PHILLY - Thanks for breakfast, the sugar boost . . . and the Clay link!  :clap

BETH - Glad Dave made it home.  Did fog delay the flight??

BARB,  :wave and a  :hugg!!!  Be careful in that fog.  I think fog is the scariest and most dangerous thing there is.  When we lived in Grosse Ile raising the kids, I remember driving at night or attempting to, going back and forth to the  youth center and the fog so thick along the river road I must have been crazy!!!! 

KAREN,   yep Big Mike doesn't seem like he should even be there.  Seems like he is to much older than the others.  I think they have the show wrong this year, this maybe the end of it!!

KIM, what a beautiful woman grannie was!  I also was born in Kentucky.  Providence, KY!!!!  Near Madisonville, KY.  I remember those trips that my dad and I used to take together.  We would stop at the old grocery stores where they had the soda crackers in the big barrels and they would cut off chunks of the best bologna and some of those crackers and that was the best thing to eat in the world.  I can taste them now.  What wonderful memories.

MARY, hope you are feeling better today.  If  you improve every day that would be wonderful. 

BRENDA, how is your lungs?  Are you going to be fit enough for your surgery??????

We drove through a few years ago & ma said..."this is downtown"...I said..."where?"  :lol We were on a road....had a gas station(with the old pumps!) and then further on down the road was a Fritzee Freeze. THAT was downtown!?? Heard they got a McDonalds now though...that'd be kinda funny to see. Wonder if it's on the main "downtown" road or stuck up a holler!?? :lmao :lmao

Hello Everyone!  :bouncy

OMG....Clay was so awesome tonight!!!!  :thud  I can't remember a darn thing right now so you guys will have to find out the intricate details from someone who had the sense to write it all down.  All I can remember is this unbelievable explosive ending on Unchained Melody!  WOW!   He looked wonderful and sounded wonderful!!  I saw Tiffany, Barbara, Marlene, Sunny and Michelle from Claymaniacs at the show.  It was so good to hear Clay's voice again!  He came into the audience to talk to a woman who took a 36 hour 4 bus trip from Nebraska all by herself to come to the show.  She said she did it because she loves him.  He told her his mama loves him too but would never drive that far for him. The woman was about 3 - 4 feet away from us.  I think Danielle and I might have had to pick our mouths up from the floor.  He was so close we were counting freckles. I hope you can't see us in the camera... :lol  His hair was back to reddish brown with a Sunday-school part, not short, not long. He was wearing what appeared to be an all leather dark suit but I don't think it was really leather. It looked soft like velvet. He had on a white shirt and a pale purple tie.   He was busting on how he always wanted to sing the Neil Sedaka song that Reuben sang and now he could finally sing it and that his version was better than Reuben's anway.  He sang the first word and Reuben came out on stage and sang the song...can't remember right now what it was.  Reuben, Clay and Quina sang a medley of newer songs and the tunes were changed to sound like they would have in the 60's.  Sharon....he did some driving for you!  He also sang Buttercup.  A couple from So You Think You Can Dance came out and did a samba to some samba song Clay sang.  He spoke about how teachers impact our lives and asked everyone that taught him between 2nd and 12th grade to stand up.  At least 10-12 of his teachers were there.  Gosh...my head is spinning and I can't think of any more of the songs right now.  Oh yeah....He opened with Mack the Knife and closed with Moon River.  I was surprised at how many of the songs I never heard before.  Several people were writing down song lists so I'm sure they will be posted before morning.  Oh Kim....your bendy Reed was there too!  Whose Sorry Now....that was another one.  They will be popping in my head all night as I come back down to earth... :lol

Well....I will catch back up with you all tomorrow and type up anything else I can remember.

Good morning!  :purpbana

:cry :cry :cry  I want to go back to the theater and start the show over! OMG....I so wish everyone could have been there and that we didn't have to wait until the summer to see it.  I'm sure so much of the "goofy Clay" is going to get edited out because he kept saying goofy things in the middle of everything like, "hey, i can say this cause they are going to edit it out". 

This morning I keep hearing the duet he did, "Crying" in my head.  I forgot to say how phenomenal that song was too.   Wait until you guys see what he did with the ending of Unchained Melody.  I am guessing we will only see this on the show and that he didn't record it like that for the CD.  It's hard to describe because I don't know the correct terminology.  He held one long note that started out with a very low note and went into a high note and then he went into his powerful high register which was so intense that he just blew the entire crowd out of the water.  It wasn't just one glory note.  I think this was the birth of the glory phrase!! I was a total goner at that point....wouldn't have even known my name. 

Oh also....I didn't see anyone mention this but Ruben has lost 100 pounds.  As soon as I saw him I said to Danielle that he lost a lot of weight.  She was so cute...she said...don't forget mom, the camera adds ten pounds.  Then Clay mentioned the weight loss and that he had found it and that soon they wouldn't be talked about so much since they will look the same instead of being the big guy and the skinny guy.  Untrue....Clay certainly looked trim and healthy to me!

Kim - I wouldn't have known Reed if he was standing in front of me.  One of the CM,'s Marlene happened to be sitting next to us.  She was pointing everyone out to us.  I should have guessed where everyone was by the congregations around them.  There was a lot of hugging going on last night. :lol 

Well...now it is back to earth and reality and my saturday morning cleaning.  I heard that something is going on in Asheville over the summer but not sure what it is.  I'm not sure if it is part of a tour or not.  Clay mentioned that he was going to do a couple of shows with Ruben over the summer.  If we don't get a tour announcement I sure hope some of you will consider coming down over the summer.  It was nice seeing and hearing Clay again but it wasn't perfect because all of you weren't there. :hugg

 HI CINDY, so good to see you here.   :hugg I am so glad you went to see Clay, I wonder if these songs will be on his new CD.  I wouldn't mind that at all.  Love the song Crying!!!!  So happy to hear he was in good voice, I have to say I was worried.   Yep as far as I know Clay and Reuben will be in concert in Ashville, in fact I think our Philly and her hubby are going. 

SHARON, sure hope you stay in bed and keep those covers pulled up under  your chin.  Wish I could bring you some nice hot chicken soup. 

KAREN, trying to figure out how to add my name to that petition.  I am computer dumb.  Have a nice day today.

Hi Miss Pepe!  :hugg

I'm pretty sure all of these songs are going to be on the CD.  Clay mentioned specifically that he wanted to do a duet for the CD where he was actually recording the song with the other person in the room.  He said that he never even met the person he did his last duet with.  The woman's name was Linda Eder and they sounded beautiful together. 

I don't know how to do those linky things you all do but there is a PBS Special Filming thread that has a few pics and a complete listing of all the songs from last night. 

Sharon - I hope you feel better big sis! :hugg Relax and take it easy today.  Take the weekend to chill out and recover.  I didn't know Meesa was getting married today!  WOW!!  I am so happy for her! I was so suprised that I didn't see her last night...now I know why! :lol

Karen - Enjoy your day in Columbus!!  I just booked another trip to Perrysburg for April 13th - 16th.  I sure hope the weather is a little nicer than it was last month.  I ended up leaving early and thought I was going to get stuck in a blizzard in Chicago (my layover).  That was the most scared I ever was in a plane.  You couldn't even see out the window in the plane.  It was a total white-out.

Good morning ladies,

Cindy, how exciting that you got to go to the Clay taping. I'm still disappointed that his new CD will be oldies AGAIN, but oh well. Hey, you will be in my area when you are in Perrysburg - it is a suburb of Toledo too, pretty much next door to me. How long will you be here? Don't know what my condition will be then - hopefully I will be recovered and able to do some things. Actually that is the weekend of my Caity's play so I had better be able to go - don't know if I will be allowed to drive yet. Last time I had surgery I wasn't allowed to drive for almost a month. Please let me know how long you will be here and where you will be staying - maybe we can arrange a small get together. Detroit is only an hour or two from here as well. Maybe we can arrange a lunch or dinner or something.

Sounds like you had a good time - is there any clack? Does anyone know?

What time is Meesa's wedding? Do we know where they are going on their honeymoon - I'm very happy for them and wish them much luck and happiness. Hope he is supportive of her Clay fanship.

Kim, your grandmother was certainly a beauty.  That is a wonderful photo. Try this to search for your mom's missing license (and anything else)

http://www.ancestry.com/?o_xid=21837&o_lid=21837

Sharon, so sorry you aren't feeling well. Stay in and snuggle with your babies this weekend. If your weather is like ours (rainy), it is a good weekend to stay in anyway.

Marilyn's grandkids are sick (Dylan and Kylee). We had to postpone Emily's family birthday party for a week because they are sick, poor babies.
I spent the day with Marilyn yesterday. She went with me to pick Cristien up and we went back to her house (since Dylan and Kylee are sick and we couldnt' go there) to wait until Chris' plane came in at 6:00. Cristien had a blast and loves his Aunt Marilyn. It was a verrrry long day for me (started out at 8:00) and I am still tired.

Shirley, are you feeling better today?

Karen, have a safe and enjoyable trip to see your in-laws. I too was shocked to see Alex Lambert go - WHAT? Doesn't seem possible to me that he didn't get the votes.  I hope they bring him back.

Off to check if I have any work (none so far this morning). Maybe we will go to Julie's anyway today. I still haven't given Em her BD present and am not going to wait another week to do that.

Do you have the divorce papers? Do they maybe where they were married - I think mine do. I can't believe they wouldn't remember that either - wow. Seems like something you wouldn't ever forget. Don't they remember where they were living at that time - they should give you a clue. They do get around, don't they!

Well see the thing is...they were living in Ohio...but had to go to a state that allowed ya to get married on one day. (heh...think that's when they found out I was comin! :lol ) So neither of em remember which state they went to! The divorce papers don't have anything about where they were married. My divorce papers do...but not theirs. :bduh

I could probably find this if I could search normally. Went lookin at computers this mornin...found one for 440 bucks. Might go get it...gonna check around some more first.
I got this one for 399! I wanna nuther DEAL like that! :lol :lol

I can't find official websites on this one. I'm trying to get the official state of indiana vital records site and it won't come up...just wacky websites.

I think I'll just have to call all the states surrounding Ohio til I find em! :bigsmile :icon_rolleyes:

KIM, the state that used to marry you in one day was Angola, Indiana, I should know that is where I was married.  Maybe other states did also.  That is so funny  that no one remembers where they were married.

Kim - They used to have a name that came before the phone numbers.  Like Lincon (which would be shortened to Li which was 54) and then the number 2-3655.  So it would be 542-3655

Well...I'm sure that's probably a Sempron processor...uh....

Lemme put it this way, if you're willing to go a little bit more, you can do WAY better with this one:

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Dell-500-GB-iZHD-3780NBK/13316871

Walmart has others as well, but mostly all-in-one models...which is okay, I guess.  I just don't know how proprietary they are.

Lemme check the Dell site more thoroughly....will let you know.

http://www.dell.com/us/en/business/desktops/desktop-vostro-220st/pd.aspx?refid=desktop-vostro-220st&s=bsd&cs=04

If you want a 21.5" monitor, it's $439!

G'morning, all...

Kim...why do you have to buy their security program?  Just go to avast.com and download avast.  Get the FREE version..works great.  Here's the link:  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download   Also, if you don't have a spyware program, EVERYBODY definitely needs one and needs to run it FREQUENTLY.  Ad-aware will now even tell you if you're logging onto a suspicious site for trojans.  If you get the FREE version of avast, (I'm all about free), you don't have to worry about wasting money on say...McAfee or Norton's, which you have to pay for renewal EVERY freakin' year!  Anyway..hope that helps someone!  Link for the free Ad-aware:  http://lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

I think shipping is free with Dell, Kim, but check just to be sure.  With that monitor, that's a GREAT price on that thing...even if you have to pay shipping, which would be very little methinks.

Going to my son's house today.  Dylan and Kylee are both ickly with colds.  Poor babies.  So, I'm thinking it's either going to be quiet (with them just kinda lazing around) or hectic (with them grumpy cause they don't feel well).  Either way, get to see my grandbabies today!!!

Hope everyone else will have a joyous day!

Going to my son's house today.  Dylan and Kylee are both ickly with colds.  Poor babies.  So, I'm thinking it's either going to be quiet (with them just kinda lazing around) or hectic (with them grumpy cause they don't feel well).  Either way, get to see my grandbabies today!!!



Do tell Mar :para :lol

MARY,  :hugg I am okay.  I did pretty good yesterday, got excited as I took a couple of steps by myself without the walker but am paying for it this morning with pain in my groin and hip.  Did not sleep all that good but that is fine.  Had a good day at Walmart, driving around the store.  They have taken stock out of the middle of the isles for some reason so it is so much better for me to drive the cart around.   :bigsmile  How is baby Chase doing?  Is he sleeping during the night or is he a colicky baby?  Spring is a great time to have a baby get to take him for nice summer walks.

Good morning everyone  :hugg


Sharon - Evelyn - Sure hope you feel better.  :comfort  Hate feeling like that.

Shirley - I hope you are not overdoing it.  You know how fragile your bones are.  (very lightly giving you a)  :hugg


I'm waiting for my daughter to come downstairs, hoping she will want to take a walk with me.

Barbara, what are you having painted?  And what color? 
 I need to do that!  Just hate the disruption.  :icon_rolleyes:

KAREN - The painting idea just kept GROWING!  :blush  I wanted the kitchen and dining area painted . . . but that area extends into the living room . . . which leads up the open stairs and the landing upstairs . . . I thought it would have a nice flow to have it all painted the same color.  :nixweiss:

The color is Yellow Iris . . . a VERY light yellow.  It kind of looks like a soft sunshine.  :smile  BUT - it seems every piece of furniture, wall hangings, pictures, etc.  needed to be taken down and put someplace else temporarily . . . YIPES - I don't have "someplace else" so things are really jammed during this project.  Sometimes I can hardly find the phone when it rings.  :smile  I will be so glad when it is done . . . it will give my house a "lighter" look.  :bouncy

How is everybody's cold??  SHARON - Is the fever down?? :hugg  EVELYN - do you have the cough with your cold, too?? :hugg

SHIRLEY -  Glad you had a chance to go shopping at WalMart . . . with your magic cart!  Sorry your pain is still so bad. :hugg

HI to PEGGY, BRENDA, MARY, BECKY, MARILYN, KIMMY, BETH, DOODS, CAROLYN, ANN  . . . AND ANYONE I FORGOT.  HOPE THIS IS A GREAT WEEK FOR ALL!

MEESA!  Do you miss us?? :blush :hugg

Sharon and all the others with colds and such. Remember to really take care because this is the very worst time, not that there is ever a good time, to catch a cold. They just linger.
I am having some real problems with this neck. I have my follow up with the surgeon tomorrow and it can not come fast enough. It will be 2 weeks tomorrow and I should be getting better not worse. I am really crabby and that is not a good thing.
Chase is doing great, he is 5lbs 7 oz now, the piggy and just a good baby. Not sleeping all night but never really cries. No problems. The doctors want them to take him for walks when the sun is out and it is not too cold but he is not to go to malls or stores or anywhere there are a lot of people. They just do not want the chance of him catching anything. He is still wearing a heart monitor and will until he can go for 48 hours without an episode of the alarm going off. It is really no problem though. He just has these little wires sticking out of his jammies. Carrie and Steve spent the whole day with them yesterday and she said that he makes the weirdest noises and squeaks. She said it is too cute. What a treasure he is. I can not wait till I can go see him and hold him a bit. I just wanna kiss those chipmunk cheeks.

MARY, I am so terribly sorry that you waited so long for this surgery and now that it is over you are still suffering.  I am so disappointed for you.  Are you in a lot of pain?  I can understand why you would be with all those bolts in you.  I will be waiting to hear what the doctor has to say.  My prayers are certainly with you .  Thanks for giving us a great update on Chase!  Miracle baby for sure, he needs all the love he can get, you can never have to much.  At least that is what I tell Preston as I kiss on him every chance I get.

PEGGY, hope you got to go for your walk.  I think walking is the best exercise you can get.  Love it that spring is coming, another sunny day up here in the Tawas area.

Hi everybody,

Sorry to hear there are so many of you who aren't feeling well. I am sending  :hugg to all of you!

Cristien was here all weekend, of course. He is so cute and sweet. They picked him up this morning but he will be home on Friday again.

Just finished working and have to run and get supplies for a school project for Emily - she asked me to help her and time is really tight.

Catch up with you all tomorrow, take care!

Shirley - I must have heard you all the way down here because I got disgusted this morning and called the doctor.

Mary - he ordered an antibiotic right away and I've already started taking it.

Sharon - we both have the same thing. This cough (hack) won't leave, nose still running and a headache that has continued for four days now. I'm not doing much but staying on the couch.

Sharon - Thanks for the tea . I'm having tea with honey in it. My daughter keeps saying "add whiskey". but I haven't yet.  I also read Michael's comment. So sad.

Peggy, I just wrote the same thing in that thread, it's like a computer crash, and losing everything.  I know it really affects us here as we've been a family for many years, just like the OCD and BLPT, I'm sick.  I often go back and read the wonderful posts surrounding the many happy and sad events we've shared here.  We are long distance friends only by the geographic constraints placed on us, we are close as any family.

Morning all, if you don't have our sister site saved somewhere do it, if you don't have the URL pm me.
Coffee and tea are ready, Evelyn, I made us green tea with honey, gotta shake the rest of this ding dang cold :bang My next door neighbour heard me talk and said I sounded like a 1-888-WANNA CHAT ABOUT :slick operator :lmao

Wow, what a shock to click on my CM link and come up with a WHITE screen!  Now the color posts are REALLY hard to read.  Even if we don't get to salvage the past, at least we still have each other.  Do we need to send out emails to the people who haven't been around for a bit (ie Chrisie, Ann, et al)?

Anyway...good morning, all.  Got an appointment this morning, so I'm up early (ya gotta know it's not by MY choice).  Heck, I might even wear a little make-up this morning.  What?   :shock

Evelyn..hope the antibiotics help you!  If it's a virus, though, they don't work for that but at least they'll keep you from getting something bacterial in the meantime.

:hugg to all who need them this morning.  Have a great day!

Did ya ladies hear about the new contract for Michael Jackson's unrecorded songs? Something like 200 million dollars. I will be anxiously waiting for that album, almost as anxious as I now am for Clay's. Decided I will be happy just to hear him again no matter what he sings, as long as I get to hear that voice.

Hey, I was worried you wouldn't be here this morning. (Marilyn told me about the problem). Can't believe we're losing our mansion.  Welll, I guess my puter was correct last month when it banned me from the site because it had been "phished." I was off for two days from Feb 13 to Feb 15, then my son turned off the blocker so I could get back on. Marilyn did notify someone in admin that I was getting that notification. Dang.

Got Emily's project finished last night - we built a catapult. It was kind of fun and it really works well. I think she will be a hit, shooting marshmallows all around the room.

Shar, guess you must be feeling some better if you could even contemplate a tailgate party. Sure wish we could all be there. Sounds like a glorious day. Can you believe it? Spring officially begins on Saturday -  :purpbana :purpbana :purpbana  Prayers for Uncle Eddy.

Evelyn, sure hope the antibiotic is working for you, too.

Hey, Mary - how is your neck this morning? When do you see your doctor again?

Hi Peggy.

Hi Kim - are you sure you can't just have the virus removed? Do you really need a whole new puter?

Am really late for work today - just couldn't get up. Guess I was really tired. I'm off to see if there is any work left. Later.

Brenda, my appointment with the surgeon is at 3:15 and I can hardly wait. I am not a happy camper. I seem to get a little worse each day instead of better. I want this lump or whatever out of my throat :bang and I barely have any use of my right arm. Before surgery I had some difficulty and pain but now it hurts to the wrist and I can hardly lift it. Something is not right. Thank goodness I had the neck done first, I could only imagine what I would be like if it were my lumbar spine. Would I even be able to walk?  I will post when I get back and let you know what he says.

SHARON, so very sorry to hear about Uncle Eddy.  Will say a prayer that he will get better soon and having lunch with you.

MARY, anxious to hear what the doctor says.  I am off to get myself dressed have a 2:15 doctors appointment if I can get there.  Woke up in horrible pain this morning and in the wheel chair this morning couldn't walk.  My foot is still so swollen and the groin still so sore can't put any weight on it still.  So hubby called the doctor and was shocked they could see me today.  I hate going as they never know what is wrong anyway.  The procedure is to send me for an xray and than that is usually it.  Never shows anything and never knows the cause of the problem.  Oh well.

Sharon, prayers for Uncle Eddy.  Hope he can kick the pneumonia. :hugg

Mary,  sure hope they tell you that this pain you are having is normal, and that it takes just a bit longer to start being able to move the arm, and for the lump to go away.  I know next to nothing about this type of surgery or how long it takes to recuperate.    I want GOOD NEWS from you later today!!! :hugg

Shirley, good grief, you poor thing!  Do you think you hurt yourself while sleeping?  Hope the doctors can tell you something this time. :hugg

MARY, oh my goodness didn't you get to see a doctor than?  How long will you have to wait to get another appointment,.  My doctors office always calls the day before to remind me of an appointment when one is made ahead of time.

Well my doctor said my foot and leg is caused from either Heart Failure or osteoarthiritis.  Put me on some medicine for inflamation for arithiritis and am to take that for two weeks to see if the swelling and inflammation goes down in the foot and leg.  If not I go back in to see him.  He put me back on morphine and wants me to take that as he says my lungs are worse again and the morphine is a proven pain killer and is suppose to relax the lungs making it easier to breath.  Wrote me a prescription for morphine, Norco and the inflamation meds hopefully that will help the spine and groin when I try and walk.  Went over to xray and just got a call from dr. office saying it showed bone rubbing against bone in the hip area.  That explains the pain there when I try and walk.  So that is what I know right now.  Since I told you all I was headed to the doctors thought I had better tell you what he said.  Wasn't sure you would all be here when I got back.  I keep thinking my goodness what will it be like if I come here and Claymaniacs doesn't exist anymore.

Still have this d=----- cold. Taking antibiotic and will see the dr. tomorrow.

Do any of you watch the tv channel ?  The other day - it had American Idols - where they are now. Very interesting. Lil Round is modeling while waiting for singing opportunities. And it said that Adam will tour Europe and Britain and Chris will be going for concerts in Asia.

Shirley, no wonder you have that pain, bone rubbing on bone must really hurt :hugg Mary, are you still able to get another appointment soon??? Tell me you don't have to wait too long!!!
Uncle Eddy has deteriorated from this morning, sad to say. They have given him morphine to relax his lungs also, to help breathe easier, wait Shirley just said that :bduh :hypno Mom wants to see her brother, but I have talked her out of it for now.
Still feeling so sad about the site going down the tubes :bang

SH ARON, so sorry about  Uncle Eddie, you have made his life so much fun and I am sure he will be up and around in no time.  Tell your mom it is important she rest and take care of herself. seeing you were with her when you were coming down with your cold she sure doesn't need to be around Uncle Eddie either.  I read what you said about the morphine.  My doctor knows how I feel about taking it so glad he was telling me the truth about breathing easier.  He told me he wanted to up my steriods to 30 mg and I said no than he said I must take the morphine than to relax my lungs.  Guess he knew what he was talking about.  Get some rest my sweet after you have a nice bowl of hot soup perhaps.

Sharon,  :hugg :hugg one for you, one for your mom.
Shirley, pain management is very important to your health in general. My cardiologist is the one who talked me into finally taking the heavy pain meds. Hen sai the pain put too much stress on my heart. Really makes sense if you think about it.
I can not get another appointment until March 29 :bang my doctor will be out of town, but I did find out that the throat thing is normal and the arm pain too. It is caused by the swelling. It might take a long time for the swelling to go down . The swelling is also causing pressure on my spinal corn, hence the arm pain. At least I feel better knowing that much. I guess I just have to be more patient. Something I am not good at.
Found out today that my SIL has to have the very same surgery, except his will be c3-c4 and mine was c5-c7 and the are using a prosthetic for him and used cadaver bone for me. I told him we will have matching necks. He is scared to death! Poor guy. This is from the car accident way back in April. He has been going to PT since then and it made it worse, his lumbar spine is much worse too.
I kinda think we will get some sort of warning when this mansion has to close. I am ok as long as we can still get together here online! My memories are stored away in my heart. Good thing they aren't in my mind because I would just lose them. :lmao :lmao

I did just saved the first page of the first thread I go a long way to go.

Here's a short cut from Lindsey (wvclayfan)

Even though I know a lot of you have been saving things. I found a way that might make it easier than copying and pasting into Word. In your Browser, Click File -->Save Page As --> Select Web Page, HTML Only. What this does is save a copy of the page onto your computer. It'll look like the site when you open the file, but it's not "live." You'll still need to save each page separately, but it's not as cumbersome.

Shirley....this is why I guess....from the main page:

The only way this can be corrected from happening again would be to move to either a different type of forum / portal or upgrade to the latest version of each.  Unfortunately an upgrade is not available for both pieces of software.  This will result in us moving the URL of the forums to a different address and having our users / posts  and theme completely wiped and started over.

Can anyone think of anything that we need to save?  Any special parties or concerts?
I have saved our RTM 1st thread (which is actually our second thread) and have saved a thread for the BLT (VII - with the poem in it).  It's easy to save pages, just takes up space on the computer.  I share this one with 2 others, so I can't save everything.


Hope everyone is feeling better today.  It's supposed to be great outside so I will be taking another walk today.   :smile


Wonder how much time we will have.   :nixweiss:

Just save them to your computer first. When you have close to the 700 MBs of info, copy those threads to a blank CD and then you could remove them from your computer.

Good morning, everyone.

Just reading all the talk about "saving pages."  Don't take my word for it, but if you're saving all these pages as "html," I don't believe you're saving anything.  Here's my reason.... if these pages "disappear," there will be nothing to link to...which is what you're saving..links.  Now...I'm not a computer genius or anything close to that, but that's my thinking.  Before you "save" anything more, you might want to ask Michael the best way to go about it..just a suggestion?  I thought about doing it, too, until that realization came to me.   Did I explain that so that it's clearer than mud?  :lol

Anyway...hope everyone is feeling some better today, and if not...SOON (not Clay's "soon" either!).

:hugg for all those who need one!

Right....but all that "saved" file is doing is linking you right back here.  It's not really saved on your computer, only the web addy is...it's only a link back to this site.  Which means, when these pages disappear, you will click on your link and get "Page cannot be found."

Okay...Philly...and anyone else....here's how you have to do it:

Pull down File (at the top of the page), select "Edit With Microsoft Office Word"  .. it will paste in Word.

Once it's in Word, you can pull down File in THAT document and save as ...

Change the arrow thing at the bottom of the save window to Microsoft word document...save wherever you want.

You can also edit out the shout box stuff there if you want.

Anyway...if you're ambitious, it works.   The other way does not.

As long as you still have them in photobucket, they will remain in photobucket.  I'm doing the first ever RTM thread.  Dunno if I'll do more than that...maybe the last few pages here, but we'll see.  It's more work this way, but at least I know we have the pages.  We have a LOT of pages, gals!!! YIKES!!

Anyway...your pix will remain in photobucket as long as you have them there and are registered with them.

I think it might work the way you did it.  I just disconnected my internet (unplugged my router) and tried to open one.  It was all white, no pictures, but the posts were there.  Dunno why.  It shouldn't work at all with just links.  Hmm...... (twilight zone music).....

Welcome Suerue. Any friend of Philly's is a friend of ours. I hope you stick around a bit and let us get to know you.
Marilyn, you are so a puter expert, at least pretty darn close to expert. Now Chris, there's a puter genius I'll be he would know what to do and how to do it fast and easy.
Sorry Brenda, just bragging about your son!
I went out shopping today. had to really talk Paul into letting me drive. I had to come home and tell him he was right. I should have let him take me. But it sure felt good to just walk around the stores. I'll bet I spent 2 hours or more just at Burlington Coat Factory. Got myself some really funky, way out there sandal kinda shoes for the cruise. I do love some wild shoes!! Wish I could wear heels and stuff. After I had the implant in my toe I can wear many more kinds of shoes but not HIGH heels. I have so many new clothes I have bought for this darn trip, I could go for 3 weeks and still have stuff left and I'm not done shopping! My sister and I are going Saturday to get our enhanced drivers license, I have to renew mine anyway, and I will bet we will go shopping again too. I do need some jewelry. Sharon, can we come shop at your house?? You carry just the kind of stuff I like.

KAREN, what a shame that the petition didnt work to get Alex back on AI.  I kept waiting for them to announce it last night.  :lol   I was not impressed with any one really last night, if fact when some of them were singing I was switching channels so i didn't have to listen to them.  I wish they would stop building Big Mike  up like they are doing, they are just making it harder for him when he falls and I am sure he will.  He just doesn't look like he belongs with the others. 

MARY, good for you getting out.  As long as you weren' putting  yourself into harms way I am sure it felt wonderful to get out.  I just finished eating dinner and I was a pig.  I wonder why I eat so much, I am like a bottomless pit lately.  I had a wonderful flat cut of corn beef, some new fresh carrots,  Yukon Gold potatoes and cabbage I had it cooking all day in the crock pot and made a wonderful Irish Soda bread.  I will make grilled ruebens tomorrow for dinner.   How long will you be on the cruise.  Just heard of another cruise ship coming back to port with 400 sick passengers.  I said it was the third time this has happened on this ship.  What cruise line are you sailing on??????

Norwegian Cruise Line. The cruise is a week, and we are staying in Seattle for 4 extra days. We figured we were going to be there we might as well see some of it. That is where the port is, the starting point for the cruise.

Mary - My son went to Seattle once and he said it was beautiful. He loved it there, so I know you will enjoy that part of the cruise.

Shirley - Sent you a PM.

Wish Alex were back on AI too. Don't think anyone is really great.

Philly - what a sweetheart - just what I need a claysmos.

Evelyn, the Claysmo sounds good to me right now, too. The stuffed up runny nose and sore throat and plugged ears have found their way here. Of course, babysitting two sick kids just might have had something to do with it. And someday I hope to get to Seattle and Portland and the rain forest between them. Have you been there?

Sure wish Marilyn lived next door to me. After yelling at me for using Norton and all the other protective devices that are on my computer, she could help me straighten out and do it correctly.  :blush   :wink  :bigsmile  Wish I could help everyone with their saving threads.   :bang   All of you who are working so hard to save the Maniacs are a blessing to all of us.  :clap

Mary, do I hear some spark in your post?  :clap   :purpbana  There's nothing more fun than shopping for fun stuff to use in a fun way. And I sure wish we could "shop" Sharon's stuff, too. Other than your trip, hopefully you'll be able to dazzle us at a Clay concert or other get-together SOON. Have to ask...........and I may have already asked.........are you going to Skagway?

Brenda, happy to hear you have work today. Bet your happy fingers were just dancing!!!   :wink   We thoroughly enjoyed Maddey's play yesterday. Those 7-yr-old kids were a stitch. No wonder you enjoy Caity and Emily's shows. Dad laughed and laughed. Our Maddey is quite the dancer; she outdanced everyone. However, she's so skinny her 7 slims were trying to fall down while she was dancing, but she kept going.  :lmao

Kim, it's been over five months and I still have so much stuff to get rid of from Mom that I can't believe it. You just have to plug away at it.  :hugg   You ARE going to share the drawing when you finish it, right? That was such a beautiful photo you shared. Does Joey have to wait until May 5 to know which schools have offered him admittance?

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone with or without green blood flowing through your veins.

I don't think everyone here goes to the OCD thread, but I brought this over form there.  It might help explaine some of the problems with the site.

MAY I INQUIRE AS TO 'WHY' A BRAND NEW SITE HAS TO COME ABOUT????

WE WERE HACKED INTO....NOT THE FIRST TIME....IT'S OVER....WHY MOVE....WHY NOT JUST CONTINUE ON AS YOU HAVE BEEN SINCE THIS LAST HACK JOB.....CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN????

Because our site was hacked by a terrorist group who used it to phish (falsely gain username, password, account information) for paypal, possibly to use it to fund their terrorism projects. Once we were hacked by them red flags went up with many internet providers, websites, etc. They blocked access to our site for their users --this means people cannot access our site. Our site is running smoothly because the hackers didn't do anything to the public side of our site, only used our resources and information to illegally gain information from others.

We do not want to be associated with any terrorist organization and we don't want access to our site to be blocked. We have to move to different servers and a different format to break this chain.

Hacking does not always cause chaos that is visible.


Hope this helps.  See you tomorrow.    :hugg

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!

MARY, you will love Seattle, lots of great seafood!  Make sure you go to the Pike's Place fish place where you buy fresh seafood and they throw it around in the air for you.   :lol

I think when we move this time we will lose more people just my thoughts on moving!!!!

Watched AI last night and was a little disgusted.  I don't like the idea where they can save one of the contestants voted off.  Here this poor person is told they got the lowest votes and they are expected to sing while these judges all have their heads together talking and yacking if they should keep them or not.  How barbaric is that.  I was never a fan of Layce's.  Thought she was a pretty girl but never liked her voice so I was not disappointed to see her gone. Just not into AI this year, no one really grabs me after Alex left.

Shirley. my sister came here the other night and we ordered some Seattle attraction tickets online and then watched a bunch of UTubes of the fish market. We were laughing so hard Paul came up to see what the excitement was about, She is so excited, I am so happy we are doing this together. She has wanted to go her whole life. Would you believe that her daughter told her " I don't want to hear one more damned thing about Alaska, I am so tired of hearing about it, maybe when you are leaving in a day or 2 I will wanna hear anything more about it!" I wanted to knock her lights out. How horrible. My sister does everything for her alcoholic kids and they treat her like crap. I have to admit that she will drive me a little whacko too but whatever she wants on this trip will be fine with me. When we take trips she plans everything. What time we eat, get up, go here do this or that. I go with the flow, but this is her big hurrah and she can plan all she wants.
Does someone want my frosting recipe? I can e-mail it.

'morning, kids...

Okay...I appreciate all the praise and accolades because of my so-called computer expertise, but before you go cloning me, you might want to rethink that.  One of me is more than plenty, believe me.  My "expertise" is sorely lacking these days.  I haven't kept up with the new technologies, so I'm not even going to profess knowledge.  Anyway...thanks, but...not necessary.  I don't know much but I'm happy to help any of you if I can.

Mary, Mary...*sigh* .. I sure wish Brenda and I could go with you on that cruise.  They'd probably kick us all off the boat before we left port.  Sure sounds like fun, though.  Take your coat!!!  Ack...those temps for Alaska don't seem to get warm even in the dead of summer.  What's with THAT?  Sarah Palin must be one hardy broad!  :lol

Well, getting ready to leave for PT.  I've got these maintenance visits for a few more months.  Not sure how much they're helping since I still have trouble sleeping because of back and leg pain.  Oh, well...we do what we have to do, right?

Oh, yeah...I got the whole first thread copied and saved.  If there are "special" times you guys can think of that you'd like to keep, let me know and I'll try to do those times as well.  There are WAY too many "houses" to keep them all, I'm thinking.....would take forfarginever.

So......I'm outta here....TTYL!

I was hoping they would bring Alex on board as the 13th finalist, like last year, Shirley.
But since they aren't, I'm glad they didn't talk about it as I'm sure Simon would just blame the viewers for not voting, "that's the way the show works, Sorry."  Only thing is, they changed up the show last year to get Anoop on. THAT was the hope, that they would do that again.
I hope he can sign a recording deal since he wasn't Top 12. Wouldn't it be funny if he comes out with a great album before the AI winner does??!! :lol  I'll buy it for sure!!

I don't think they care; they just want Big Mike to win.  If I were a betting woman, I'd say they will save the "save" in case he gets voted off, and use it then.

I differed in my opinion of the show from you, Shirley.   I really enjoyed 75% of it the other night! (didn't enjoy Paige, Andrew or Aaron).  I disagreed with the judges about Tim Urban's song; I liked what he did with it to change it up.  Still not really a fan of his, but he sure is trying hard, and does have a nice quality to his voice.

I'm still a big fan of Casey, his tone is beautiful.  What did Simon expect him to do, he was playing the guitar and singing, you can't really go dancing all over the stage while doing that.   
I'm still a big fan of Lee, too.  Hope he and Casey both can have that "wow" performance Simon is looking for, and SOON, or he will convince voters not to vote for them.
Michael Lynche sounded okay on his song, I think, but he just doesn't look right dancing around on the stage. I was laughing, watching him, surely not his intent to get people laughing!! :giggle

LOVED Siobhan's version of "Paint It Black!"  They first part was very inspired!  Didi is a favorite, did well I think, and Crystal, too.  Something about Katie's voice I don't enjoy.  She sings okay, is a cute girl, but would never listen to her songs.  I'll miss Lacey too, Sharon, her voice was very different.  Last week was such a good song for her!  I listen to that all the time, have downloaded it.  Paige is such a striking girl; I could see her on a TV show like Glee or something (speaking of Glee, I hope Todrick gets his wish and is cast on the show! His sing out was great, and he is such a cute guy!).  I still don't get the "Aaron" thing.  I didn't think his version of "Angie" was special at all, but the judges raved. :bduh 

Well, enough boring you guys with my Idol talk!

Becky - I haven't been to Seattle but Matt went to Seattle and Portland and he said he wouldn't mind living there. He said it was beautiful.

Evelyn,  Dave and I were in Portland for a few days once.  Loved the area where our hotel was, it was right by the river and they had a riverfront walk type thing with shops, etc.  Also pretty close to Mt. Hood, which is a BEAUTIFUL drive, mountains with little waterfalls on one side of the road, and the river on the other side.  We also went to Cannon Beach while there, cute little oceanside town, very picturesque oceanside.

Did your son enjoy Portland or Seattle more, as far as being a place he'd like to live in?

I've never been to Seattle, but I have a sister who lives in Portland OR.  We keep talking about going to see her, but it is still a few years off.  I have always wanted to take an Alaskin cruise Mary.  I will be there with you in spirit.  Have a Claysmo for me. 


Hi :wave Karen.

Karen - it's been so long, that I can't remember now which one he liked better.

Mary - I was the one who wanted your icing recipe and I wanted to know if, when you refrigerate your cake, you can take it out and cut it immediately or if you have to wait for the icing to thaw and how long you have to wait. My e-mail address is in my profile. thanks.

Also Mary, I always thought that Alaska would be too cold for me. Are you  taking a lot of sweaters and winter clothes? I'm excited for you and your sister. I've been on four large cruises (a week long) and two small ones with Bozena. I love them. I think it is absolutely the best type of vacation, but I'm a warm weather person and enjoy the sun and laying around the pool.
Bozen a is looking into a small cruise now. I do have to call her, but waiting for my throat to get a little better so that she can understand what I'm saying.

OK Marilyn, another question about the site. Is our temporary site safe? Can we go from here to there when this one shuts down. Anyone know?

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all get together for a cruise , even a mini one, The ship would never be the same.

Do any of you watch the TV Guide channel. It talkes about previous idols , not just the winners, and what they are doing now. You would be surprised. Some were approached for country music records, others to tour with larger singers, still others are now models. Very interesting to watch.\\

Did you also know that Adam will be touring Europe and England and Chris will tour Asia? What - no concerts in the states?

Evelyn, I think the state of the ecomony in the US and Canada right now may have artists looking elsewhere to sell a tour.  Every one of the top 12 these days I bet gets their break in life in some capacity, just amazing :clap

Post by: bisi on March 18, 2010, 08:43:17 AM
Good morning (just barely),

I seem to be getting up later and later these days. Well, actually I didn't sleep at all last night - did fall asleep around 6:30 this morning. What's wrong with me?! Dang.

Mary, again, when do you leave and how long will you be gone? I am so jealous. I know you will love your trip. Cruises are the BEST! Marilyn and I have been on several (can't even remember how many) and they were wonderful - always to the Caribbean islands and/or Mexico - all on the Princess lines (except for the first one which was to Hawaii and incredible). I'm sure your scenery will be as awesome as Hawaii was - just much colder. Again, how long will you be gone?

As for AI, I agree with Karen. I enjoyed much of the show this week except I think Paige should have gone instead of Lacey. I absolutely love Crystal Bowersox and think she will win the whole thing. I also thoroughly enjoyed Casey this week  and, like Karen, wondered exactly what else Simon thought he should be doing with his guitar. I also thought Siobhan was incredible and stole the show this week. I am still liking Lee DeWyze and hope he will come out of that shell he seems to be sinking into. I also do not understand the fuss over Michael. I do think that if Paige had been eliminated they might have used their save --- and that scares me. Hope they are saving it for Crystal, just in case.

I hate that we are losing our home, but whereever we are going we are all going together. This time we are really moving together into a new house. It will all be fine in the long run. I agree, our memories are stored away in our minds and hearts and those can't be taken away.

Later.

EVELYN, when are you making that cake.  Sorry I was so late getting it to you .  Oh my new stove has four burners and a griddle/burner in the middle and the oven is  a convection oven, which means  you can bake three trays of cookies at once.  When we had our restaurant that is how I made all the fresh cookies so fast in the mornings.  Our restaurant was called the "COOKIE JAR CAFE", in fact my son who just visited us from Arizona was the one that put up the money for the restaurant.  Anyway I am more than excited about getting my stove, by, by electric stove, won't miss you when the power is always out here.

KAREN, I am glad you enjoy AI last night.  I am sure it was just me and maybe my age.  I was not a big fan of the Rolling Stones and did not know most of their music. 

SHARON, how is  Uncle Eddy???????

Today we picked up grandma and took her home. Then we came back to our house and then UPS delivered to us the most adorable Minnie Mouse ever!

Your timing could not have been better. To see my momma smile after the day she's had, I cannot tell you how much that means to me! She really really needed that!

I absolutely LOVE you girls with all of my heart. :hugg :hugg

THANK YOU.

Thank You for making my momma, and me, smile on a day we did not think we could.

 :bighug  :bighug




KIM - Somehow I lost part of the post I wrote.  :para

Pass the Kleenex!

So very glad that today we were able to make you and your Mom smile!  :hugg

You are like a gift to us all here at the RTM!

 :music :music  WE ARE FAMILYEEEEEEEEEEEE  :music :music

May you and your Mom and Joey keep the memory of your Granny alive in your hearts!  :hugg

Thanks everyone, just got back from telling Mom, and my sis will stay there for the night.
He was such a Bon Vivant who loved life :clap
If this tells you the man he was, I knew all about this too :wink He wants part of his ashes to be reserved.  Many years ago Woody made a contraption that they refer to as a potato gun, you can shoot stuff out of it.  He wants all the family to a big party, requested my egg salad  be served, he left enough to buy wine, and he wants part of him shot into the sky while we cheer, you know I will do it too :wink

GOOD EARLY MORNING! 

Woke up at 4:00 this morning and couldn't go back to sleep so I just got  up at 4:15.  Fixed a bagel with strawberry cream cheese and a cup of Twinings Breakfast tea.  I keep trying different things to see what tastes good.

SHARON, I am so very sorry about Uncle Eddy.  All I do know is his last remaining  year  you made him a very happy man.  Always thinking of him, inviting him to lunch or dinner.  You deserve an award for thinking and caring so much for the older person.  Everyone is not like that and I so admire this trait in you.

EVELYN, sure hope you are feeling some better today.  I do worry about  you!  We have been thru a lot together in these almost seven years together.  Don't over do, and do what the doctor says don't want an extra strain put on your heart. 

KIM, hope things are a little better for you this morning.  At least grandma and  Uncle Eddy did not linger and suffer a long time before their passing.  That is a blessing for sure.  My mom was discovered with lung cancer on Thanksgiving day eight years ago  and passed away the last of January so it was a horrible shock but I thank the good lord every day that she did not linger a long time and suffer. 

Hope everyone has a good day today!

Kim - Ask Marilyn - I'm sure she can help you. 

Marilyn - I think you mentioned a freee spyware. I forgot what it was and is it really free and does it do all other spywares do.

Mary - Honey, how are you feeling? I hope every day makes you just a wee bit better until you are completely well again.

Shirley - Since you have so much trouble with your electric going out, then I guess gas is better for you, but don't you find it a dirtier kind of fuel. 

I haven't made the cake yet because I'm really not up to doing too much yet. Still hacking away and it really drains me. It's not as dry a hack as it was, so I must be improving.

Brenda - how's everything with you?

Sharon - sorry about Uncle Eddy, but I know you'll do everything he wanted done.  Thanks again for the tea. I've been having tea with honey several times a day and it has helped this hack I have.

Wanted to share an email that I got from one of my cousins this morning, she will be having the party with the send off :wink :bouncy Eddy was such an individual :clap

I hear yah! he was one hell of an uncle and friend! I was up all night I swear Sharon he was roaming the universe visiting AND still talking! Ron said I was talking in my sleep laughing and crying I finally got up sat in front of the fire place  found his book and had a great read! What a lucky man to have found the ability and persistence to share his inner voice something far to many of us are afraid to do. Yes I'm thinking June before everyone gets busy with summer plans to send a bit of Eddy in his rocket something he let all of us know he always wanted. He was a  rich man with so  much true wealth not the material kind but passion and his imagination to dream

Thanks Mary, we really did get it right in our family :hugg That's another reason we try very hard both openly and behind the scenes to keep this family doing things together, from those little lunches to get togethers at a restaurant, to just getting a few together to play cards, whatever, it's so worth it :wink

Karen, he wrote a few books, and he was actually Canada's "newest, oldest playwright" he got that distinction about two years ago :clap :lol
The book Chris is talking about is called "A Secret Wedding" A Little Theatre group in Windsor put it to stage 2 years ago.  It was in the works to have our local KWMP group look at it to do as one of their productions here, may still in his honour :clap It's actually about my older brother's first wedding being put together in 3 days without Woody and Glo even knowing it was happening til it was happening~~~true story :lol
I've been trying to put a poem together today, to highlight some special life happenings, taking time.
I think we'll do the send off in June :lol

Kim, glad you found the money - Karen is ultra clever, I must say!

Able to get onto the new board and change my profile (no avatar though - don't know why) and can't change the time, but the time has always been off here too so no problemo!

Going to check work. Hope this is a good day, pain-free (or at least relatively so) for our gals!

The nice man at the counter said, "okay, they will be ready to-day after 5!" So, I go back just now to pick them up and the man was gone but there was a lady there. Who spoke no clearer than the man did and said, "The pants are NOT ready!" I just looked at her and said, "What do you mean the pants aren't ready?" she looked at me and said, "the pants won't be ready until to-day!" I looked at her and asked her why the pants were not ready then today. She showed me my slip and said, "See, it says that the pants won't be ready until to-day!"

SHARON and KAREN, I am feeling some better at least not vomiting anymore.  Stomach still sore, I am pretty sure it is the morphine pills I did not take any today so we will see, I will call the doctor on Monday.   Just slept most of the day and coughed trying to get some of this congestion out of my lungs but it is n't working.  I was outside two whole times this week maybe I am not used to outside air anymore I stay in the house so much.  Thanks for asking and caring about me.   :hugg :hugg

shirley - take care of yourself , honey. I still have this miserable sore throat and cold and the phlegm in my throat is horrible.

But, believe me, my problems are nothing compared to yours. Be careful you don't break any more ribs. Do you think the morphine is doing it? Ask the dr. please.

Shall we compare the color of our phlegm?   Didn't think so................   :icon_rolleyes:

Shirley, we always care about you.   :hugg

Mornin! :wave

OK I'm registered over there. aint nobody postin there yet?


Bethie....your "to-day" story is too funny!

So I went and got meself a manicure the other day. first time I ever did that! Just didn't feel like paintin my nails for work honestly. :giggle
But I picked this funky blue nail color...and now they keep distracting me!
Can't hardly ring up a pizza at work....keep stoppin to look at my funky nails and the other servers are all lined up behind me at the computer waitin for me. :lol :lol

Boy...spring break is in full swing here. :para took me 1 1/2 hours to get to work yesterday. :bduh Traffic was at a standstill. THEN, while we're sittin in the jam, COPS are flyin by on the grass.I mean LOTSA cops. Regular ones and undercover ones...

Found out there was a shootout on the beach. :icon_eek: Guess a cop ended up having to shoot a guy. The night before, someone who lives on the beach had supposedly killed someone, and yesterday the friends of the person who was killed came to shoot whoever killed the person the night before. One of those people got shot by the cop...guess they were firing at the cops or something.
Crazy day. :hypno :hypno

Good Morning RTM!

BECKY are you sick too?  Did you get your taxes done yet?  By the way where are you, what bed are you sleeping in now???????  When will you get to move in to your new place?

KIM, blue is good but I like red better!!!!!!!!!  Your town does sound crazy, glad I am not there!!

SHARON, sounds like you still aren't feeling well!  I am truly sorry but I think you need to rest more than you do, of course I seem to rest all the time and it doesn't help me any, so carry on my sweet just do what you want to!!! 

EVELYN, I am sorry you are still sick, thought you would be feeling better by now.  When are you planning on going to Bozena's ?  YOu have to get well for that trip!!!!!!

Good morning everyone   :hugg


Sharon - Thanks for my morning coffee.   :mornjava
Good luck with your taxes.   :hugg


Kim - How funny about your nails.  One time last year I did my nails a funky color blue too. 
My daughter told me I was always getting 'old lady' colors.   :icon_eek:   She dared me to get something different.  I only got that color on my toes though.  I did it when I went into the hospital for my ablasion.  You should have seen the double takes I got when someone came in and had to check out my incision.   :lmao  It looked pretty good too.   :bigsmile

Don't you just hate it when you get stuck in traffic and can't move anywhere?  I do.  How frustrating!

Morning Shirley   :hugg

Speaking of manicures and such, I'm back to having my ugly short nails.  I let my acrylic nails grow out.  Forgot how ugly my own are!  :icon_rolleyes: I originally got acrylic nails back when Clay was having his book signings.  I went to the one in Cleveland.  Anyway, I had the "hots" for him back then, and didn't want him to see my ugly nails when he shook hands with me!  :lol

Had 'em ever since.  Just got tired of going every 2-3 weeks and getting them redone, plus it wasn't cheap.  And by nature, I'm pretty cheap!  I gravitate to sales racks immediately upon entering a store!  Plus, it just was not easy taking contacts out and putting concealer on under my eyes without scratching.

Been to the new site, posted a "test."  Looks pretty nice over there!  I'm impressed with Michael!  I'm just wondering if they will be able to bring our beloved emoticons over there.  I know they are not done yet with the site, so I'm hopeful. 

Kim, jeez, I've always felt safe on Clearwater Beach!  Pretty scary events!  At least you had your funky nails to look at and keep you entertained while you were stuck in your car! :lol

Evelyn, Becky, hope you are both feeling better today!  :hugg

Thought David went to a seminar in Columbus today, so I'd be able to hop in and out of here all day, but he just called....he's down at the office!   :para  So this might be my only post today.  :icon_rolleyes:

Shirley, thanks for posting, letting us know you were feeling a bit better.  We worry about you! :hugg

Sharon, maybe not the best decision to go out yesterday, hope you didn't take "two steps back" in your recuperation!  Keep warm today, sip on those hot toddies!  (http://bestsmileys.com/drinking/14.gif)

Peggy, I'm always a little more daring with my toenail color than I am on my fingernails, too!  Dunno if I'm up for funky blue, but I will definitely consider.  Next time I go to Walmart I'll look!

Good morning ladies,

Shirley, sorry to hear you had such a bad day yesterday. Hope today is better! :hugg :hugg

Karen, I remember the book signing in Cleveland - those were the days, when he was a real hottie and the gayness was just a mean and ugly rumor. I don't care if he is gay but it did take some of the fun out of being a fan. Nails - ahhh, wish I could have some but my job precludes that. I keep them very short so they don't interfere. Would rather have food than nails.

Becky, sorry to hear you are sick too. It is a nasty thing. My nose is still runny, even after two courses of steroids - it just isn't as thick. I'm leaving the oxygen off today - am wondering if that is contributing to my runny nose, although usually it has a drying effect.

Sharon and Evelyn, hope you are both feeling better. Curling up in warm jamies with the babies sounds so good. 

Am registered at the new site. Couldn't get my avie to work though. Gonna check out the new RTM.

Gonna run and check work availability - had none at all yesterday, dang it. I did clear a lot of stuff off my DVR which I need to be pretty much empty before I do in the hospital. Talk about a couch potatoe - but I have been excessively tired over the past few days so it was good to just lie around and watch TV. Didn't even have to cook  - got Rudy's hot dogs (Cristien loves them - they are very good).

Shirley, hopefully my taxes will be done this week. My new software has arrived so Jim is coming to stay with Dad so I can go home for a couple days to get things done. Sleeping in a chair so I can breathe. (TMI???)  :lol  Don't know when we can get there to clean and move in.  :nixweiss:  However  :bigsmile  Bart moved an ice cream table/chair set that they've been borrowing from us into the condo so we'll have a place to sit when we visit it. And he put a bed frame in there. It's a start.  :clap  The snow has melted so we found out we have some cool grasses growing in one flower bed and many other interesting plants.  :bigsmile   The only plants we knew about were the roses, but there is ivy (which I love), hens and chicks, and other too-small-to-recognize plants. Exciting, right? Did you get much snow?

Toe colors? OK, next time we get together, we get to check out everyone's toes!!! No one can possibly outdo my Cathy, who is a fanatic about toenail decorations.  :lmao

CHECK in time!!!!!!!!

BECKY, sorry you are still having health problems.  You sure don't feel rested when  you sleep sitting  up.  You have to be tired, you are pulled every which way.  I take my hat off to you as I don't think I could do all you do.   :hugg  We don't have any snow here and I think you had more snow down below and where you live than we did living by the lake.

PEGGY, did you do anything special this weekend?  Are you working on more puzzles?  Do you think you will ever get called back to work after this long?

BRENDA, just sitting here taking a treatment.  I probably wouldn't post as much if I didn't have to sit here for a half hour five times a day.  Do you think your nebulizer treatements help you?

MARILYN, oh MARILYN are you enjoying those grandbabies?  Preston came over to bring me some new pictures he had taken at walmart.  They are precious.  He didn't stay long his mama said he would tire me out but great to see him and kiss him.

I am having a hard time registering at the new place. I have a pm into Michael now.
I am so sorry we have so many that are not up to par here. I'll bet news of a close for all of us concert would make us all feel better.I know it would make me feel all better.
It will be 3 weeks Tuesday since my surgery and I can honestly say I am getting worse and not better. :bang :bang :bang :bang I can not wait till the 29th to see the surgeon and have him explain what the heck is going on. My neck hurts!!!!!!! Mostly what is really upsetting me is that my arm hurts worse than it did. I am praying there is a reason and that it can be fixed.
Sorry to complain when so many here are not well. I just would like a little relief. Shirley, between you and I  we should join forces and kick this pains butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MARY,  :hugg I know I can hardly wait to call the doctor tomorrow.  I felt so good for two days than wham!!!! back down again.  Gotta find out what is going on with my foot and leg to the swelling just won't go down with ice or elevating it.  I can't believe what you went thru with that surgery and  you aren't all better or close to it.  Three weeks is long enough.  I can imagine what you are feeling.  I would  not wait to the next appointment  you have I would be camped on that doctors office step in the morning wanting to be seen and some answers.
