Good Monday mornign sills........though a sad one.

I'm an old lady now and most of these guys would be just chillens', I'm thinking

plus I have to take all my own food, AND I'm not camping there overnight so - a drive home late at night, which means little to no wine with the boys around the campfire.

[jerseyangel]

Tis true. You finally figure out who you are and can start enjoying it.

Daggone right! I used to be a people-pleasin' doormat. Stopped doing that as the forties progressed......got it down to a science now

plus I have to take all my own food, AND I'm not camping there overnight so - a drive home late at night, which means little to no wine with the boys around the campfire.

Well that doesn't seem phair!! The very least you should be able to do after all that is sit and sip wine wif cute phirephiters

Stay cool out there, Souczie

[elye]

Emmel, did we come up with costumes yet fer yer scary party?

Well, I've gotten a few awesome, creative idears from y'all which I have written down....we've got a month until the party, so I'll be bothering you all again closer to the time. . . . ...

a very short, adorable, silly thing, wif kittens:

OMG.... . . .....increase those two kittehs by, oh, eighty pounds, cover them in curly wool, and they are Elsie and Gus out on the back deck....like an ultimate fighting match, it often is - - they come racing at each other from opposite corners, pin each other down .. .. ....

"And in this cornah, hailing from Thurso, Quebec, weighing in at eighty-three pounds, Canine Middleweight Masters Champion, AUGUSTUS THE FIRST. . ..."

Well, I WILL sip a couple o' hard ciders before I go - very early evening or late aft so I can drive down the mountain.

Padt! so glad yer not a doormat any more

OMG! It'll be so stinkin' hot up there. THAT was the reason I wasn't going to go, and now, I am, as have given in to all the pressure. This will be a very fun and easy trip. Plus, all that eye candy.

alas, Derek is LATE, came in from the train and is now up to sumpfin, so I'm waiting.

Awful lot like Weez and Skittle too

Suppose I'd have to be the one gagging and barphing from the sidelines to get their attention

[Jestgar]

[elye]

Thanks, Jyesss! I needed that!

Where in hell do you find these gems?

[mushroom]

I am happy with who I am and want only to be the person my daughter believes me to be

Thank goodness I don't have that to live up to; hard enough being the person I believes me to be

We've run into a huge snag wif the house we're planning to have built

And, pray tell, when has there evah been a house built that hasn't run into humongous snags?? Coulda told you NOT TO DO THIS (if you had only asked). Talk about major aggravations and marriage breakupstressors--this has to rank right up there, maybe at the top. Two years from now you will look back and laff (if yer lucky). Of course you will probably also have a very nice house (I am sure you will take special care with air conditioning and mold reductionhumidity control

Daggone right! I used to be a people-pleasin' doormat.

Now that sounds about as true as a moon made out of cheese.

Suppose I'd have to be the one gagging and barphing from the sidelines to get their attention

Somehow or other that never quite made it onto my list of attention-getting devices Very cute video though. That barphin' cat was one of mine, I'm sure. She was an expert! Didna know they took lessons in kitteh school.

Well, I thinks I has avoided the dreadful H place with the IV line , because my cellulitis has bowed to the onslaught of double doses of flucoxacillin (and so has me stomach , I might add) Take on an empty stomach :huh: indeed.

Roll on June, because they are predicting more snow within sight of our house today; t'is becoming a very early wintah. And cold!!! Have to go bake some yeast-free bread because Dh has concluded his sinus problems are related to candida and is going on anti-candida foods. He's eaten up all my pineapple already. Don't know what that has to do with it, but he assures me it is recommended. Have to watch what I say now because I keep finding him reading celiac.com when I'm not looking.

[curlyfries]

They're all right! 40 is nuttin! My sisters threw me a "BLACK" birthday party. Was fun. 2 minutes later I was lookin at 50. It goes by much too fast to worry about it. Then again, it goes by much too fast to worry about anything anymore. What a ride!!

nighty-night, Tea...

Well OMG, it's 8:30 and look who's already home.

My boss, I have figured out, always makes things sound WAY more exciting and fabulous than they really are.

Um......I drove 90 minutes to get up there (no big deal but the last 30 are on a VERY windy, narrow road - paved, thank God) and........we..........sat................around...........and that's it.

I didn't even CARE about the stupid firemen.....there were a smattering of cute ones, but I could hardly be bothered (the cute ones were VERY young, in fact nearly ALL were very young, the old ones looked fat and sloppy - I don't think firemen are as hot as they used to be? it's just the ones in movies and on TV that are hot )

It was VERY hot, humid, and......I got so antsy, crazed with boredom and discomfort (and all the flies) and had to leave. They were quite puzzled as to why I'd only stay - less than six hours? - but I just HAD to get out of there, can't even EXPLAIN it. But my boss was in the cook trailer the entire time (only room for one in there, and HOT AS BLAZES, his comrade was cooking the civkebs on the grill, the boys were sitting around just staring vacantly, and I just

COULD NAE TAKE IT - gahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

So driving down the mountain I decided that I just have a really, really low tolerance now - unlike the past - for pain, discomfort, and misery. I want cool cotton sheets, air conditioning, and a shower

Not to mention good conversation, some yummy g f snacks, decent wine, a lounge chair, and cool breezes when I camp.

Would be nice to have me sills there. Can you imagine?

very cranky. Off to bed!!!

oh - shroomie!! meant to comment on yer post - where is it??? but very funny, the marriage-wrecking house-building part

(padt! take heed!!!)

g'night sills

[elye]

Good morning, Psills!

Sooozle's Project Phireman was quite disappointing. .. ...I was hoping for a great, rustic, sublime, Steinbeck-ian tale. .. .....instead it was rather Hemingway-ish. ...

Alighted at the scene. . . . ...served the food, reclined and pondered. Descended the mount.

And no DH for Mini-minimom! 'Tis fab. But then, what in hell IS it?

:lol:

sat in my folding camp chair, stared at my young miscreant colleagues, swattted flies. Surveyed sweltering kitchen trailer and made my egress.

<I don't know which author that would be - it's just Soozle on a tired morning >

dang!! so quiet in here!!!!!!!!!!

I awake to one post from em and nuttin' else?

WHERE IS EVERYONE??????

gotta go kick Sophie's teacher's ass today. Can't wait. this master teacher is Satan himself.........such a semester she's had. Horrible, miserable, mean-spirited black-souled, sexually harassing, verbally abusive, alcoholic man. It actually made her physically ill, being around him every day - increasingly sick and miserable until she blacked out last week with searing chest pain as she could not describe, and ambulance was called. Did I tell you guys this already?

so - her gallbladder and giant gallstones were removed Friday....she is still in pain with some pyloric ulcer? 'tis EGREGIOUS.

so - get this - this EEEEEEEEEVILLLLE man (has a vendetta against her due to her WONDERFUL father and requested her as his student teacher ) has now asked that she do lesson plans for the entire rest of the school year (almost a month). Um, the ba$tard's been teaching for 25 years, I'm SURE he doesn't need them.

So, we're gonig to take in what work she does have (she can nae lift it all) and *I* am going to put my foot down right then and there. *moo hoo ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!*

Should I take the Skull Cracker for extra affect?????

[jerseyangel]

And no DH for Mini-minimom! 'Tis fab. But then, what in hell IS it?

True dat! How's lil' mimi-mini this morning? Did the doc give you something to use on the rash?

Suz!! WIH???? Kinda anti-climatic, if ya ask me, but a nice thing you did anyway. Hope the cool shower and (high thread count) sheets felt good when ya phinally got home.

Quiet here this morning.....

[jerseyangel]

Did I tell you guys this already?

Should I take the Skull Cracker for extra affect?????
