And yeah--where ARE Julie and Nik????

I missed seeing Sarah....hope she finds a minute to let us know how she's doing.

I hear that San Diego has close to perfect weather pretty much year round.

Yes, but if everyday is paradise, how will you remember to appreciate it? It's the eight feet of snow (or in Seattle's case 100 straight days of rain) that makes you appreciate the stray ray of sunshine.

Sunshine smile --------->

Yes, but if everyday is paradise, how will you remember to appreciate it?

M-m-m....I don't know....but I wouldn't mind trying

[Jestgar]

And Susie....

No more sadness OR anger. Start moving that toadface into the "Thank heavens I dodged THAT bullet" part of your brain

Amanda - LOVE that house! Lots of bright yellow, though

I know....that is some very very bright yellow. I dont mind the door but that bedroom...I almost grabbed for the sunglasses! Good Morning Starshine the Sun says YELLOW!!!!

[Mtndog]

Curly Leighsa's summaries and Jess just slapped Spruezee the Smelly (she and I have similar obsessions with all things that smell good!!!!!!!!!!). OUCH!!!!!!!!

Bevvie, I'd consider it an honoUr to look like you

Oh gawd- I know I should just say thank you and say no more (but this year I have gained 30 pounds from the stupid chronic pain med and I feel like a beslubbering idle-headed pignut).

Aw Pataughmn..... .......you're gonna get this figured out and then your inner Silly will reappear. You just get yerself better and read along or don't read, whichever you need to do. We'll be here

Ptaum- We ain't going anywhere- you do what you need to do sweet guy!

YES!!

HE IS A CHURLISH RUMP-FED MALTWORM!!!!!!

And a roguish guts-griping canker-blossom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gah! Thank gawd, I have superb BP....today it was 112 over 76, as per usual. Something, something, I don't have to worry about......!!

He did have to go and get his BP monitor from the kitchen, where his teenaged son and buddies were seeing how much, and how quickly, their numbers would go up after each successive espresso was pounded back.......

It is an interesting atmosphere in which to be... . . . ..

Emily- Yeah on the BP. our doctor sounds like the doctor in Running with Scissors!!!!!

Squeezing your butt cheeks.....OMG

Can't share anywhere else i know of

Tee hee- very important talent in our ranks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Everyone, I love sharing my favorites with you guys. I just love Victorian houses, the old time charm! The woodwork.....I am going to start daydreaming soon!

Amanda- Me thinks you have GOOD taste- I like Victorians too!!!!!!!

Yes, but if everyday is paradise, how will you remember to appreciate it? It's the eight feet of snow (or in Seattle's case 100 straight days of rain) that makes you appreciate the stray ray of sunshine.

Sunshine smile --------->

I still the Seattle area!!!!!!!!!

Thank you all for the good getting poked and PICC'd wishes!!!

[jerseyangel]

(but this year I have gained 30 pounds from the stupid chronic pain med and I feel like a beslubbering idle-headed pignut).

....and you're still beautiphul and we still love you .....now go get PICC'd and poked cause this time is the charm!

[elye]

Jess is smackin' people around! Um.....I believe this counts as too much exertion, young lady.......cease and desist. Fer now........

Toadface

This is just wackl..........very entertaining........were those boys REALLY drinking espresso and taking BP? methinks there is sumfin' fishy about that....... One'a Em's tall tales.......

I actually did not see these boys mainlining the expresso......I was given this as the explanation as to why doc's monitor was way the hell in the kitchen. He was shaking his head and rolling his eyes as he told me this........and since I have been witness to much stranger situations, I figured he was probably not kidding. Oh! Interesting sideline... .. ....his son looks VERY much like Gene Simmons' son.

And he has this dog - - not a Gene Simmons dingo-type, but a 160-pound bull mastiff PUPPY....yes, puppy...still growing. No one loves dogs more than I, but this animal would be ridiculous. His bed is the size of Jack's (and his HEAD is twice bigger than Jack's).....I've never seen such drool in my lifetime, and when he wags his tail things come crashing off tables........incredible!

Oh gawd- I know I should just say thank you and say no more (but this year I have gained 30 pounds from the stupid chronic pain med and I feel like a beslubbering idle-headed pignut).

Yep....me too....that's it--Bev's meds. It could not possibly be that I have fallen off the sugar wagon

[Darn210]

Everytime I see that Mango, Coconut Shrimp thread, It makes me think they are trying to flag down our Mango.

Very interesting, glad your BP is good and that no further cleaning was required of you

Yep.....looks like Psillyville is slowly returning to normal.........well,....you know

Great summary Lisa

Do you guys ever watch that show Jon and Kate plus 8 on TLC, if so there is an episode on Monday night (Labor Day) and it shows where I work since those babies were born here.

I do! The kids are so adorable, but so many of them....I just stare in amazement at the tv screen. I dont know how they survive, but they just get through it!

I was squeezing me cheeks and hoping fer the best.

Patti!!!! This cracked me up! That's all one can really do is hope for the best

I had to do a week of 'pee in the orange jug' and they lost day 4 of 7.......so said I'd have to repeat it.

you can guess what i told them they could do with 'their' idea

Judy, heinous that they wanted you to repeat it, but you told them where they could stick it!

So here is one of my favorites right now. I adore it!

Sounds like a good plan Janet, let us know how they turn out!

[elye]

I do! The kids are so adorable, but so many of them....I just stare in amazement at the tv screen. I dont know how they survive, but they just get through it!

Is this not the show with the blonde, gorgeous, slim mother??? She's got eight kids.................

What in HELL????!!

[Jestgar]

NIKKI is lost in the phorum-less abyss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We must send out the Mohican search party, stat!

How 'bout just sending another 300 emails

[Jestgar]

My mom was pretty skinny when all her young'ns were tiny. Something about continuously saving them from mortal peril and scary vacuums.

[Green12]

Is this not the show with the blonde, gorgeous, slim mother??? She's got eight kids.................

What in HELL????!!

YES! That is the show. She had twins and then sextuplets, and looks phabulous

How 'bout just sending another 300 emails

Surely we should double that number to really make an impact, and a statement that we are missing her and looking for her

[jerseyangel]

Sumphin fer yer readin pleasure--in keeping with the thread title.......

There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo

toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.

Well, Lena is hired at the Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her

first day promptly at 8:00 AM.

The next day at 8:45 AM there is a knock at the

Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to

rant about the new Employee.

He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up,

putting the entire production line behind schedule.

The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men

march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed

up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're

really beginning to pile up.

At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me

Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles.

The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it

around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between

Elmo's legs.

The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter.

After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches

Lena.

'I'm sorry,' he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, 'but I

think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday...'

'Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.

[elye]

Patti! Jack was reading over my shoulder when I was looking at yer test tickle joke..... Did he laugh!!!!

Surely we should double that number to really make an impact, and a statement that we are missing her and looking for her

This is a fantastic idea.... . . . .let's do it. Who wants to send the first "Where are you, Nikki??" email?

[jerseyangel]

Patti! Jack was reading over my shoulder when I was looking at yer test tickle joke..... Did he laugh!!!!

Glad he enjoyed it--HI JACK!!!!

[blueeyedmanda]

So Em and Julie will watch the show and you can be like hey my sillie works where they were born. They did the filming for the labor day episode in either May or June. John saw them walking through the hospital.

I like the show, but sometimes the mom acts real snotty. Like loosen up a bit! The kids are so cute though!

Oh so we did a drive-by tonight and the house is precious, now since it is a corner lot, the side of the house with the 2nd floor porch faces the street. But the house next door is very close, which is not uncommon for city living. There is no garage, not even a driveway, there is a lot of parking but I would like to make a driveway so we arent parking on the street. Hopefully we can get in to see it one of these days.
