Oh.....MIL clipped the front fender of my car on our lamp post while she was backing out of the driveway this afternoon. Sigh . . . . . . . . . .. ...

Gawd

We're about to grill steaks I'm doing the big dinner on Sunday when our other son and his girlfriend are coming up.

Gonna have some wine in a minute, though....so if I come back on later and don't make any sense ya'll will know why

Suz--hope Weeze's tummy has settled down

I can just imagine us, all on here in four hours - -chatting drunkenly away. . . . ..

The steaks sound phab, Patti!!

I did NOT go to church last night. How long have I been looking forward to that??? and I didn't go???????? what is UP with that????????

WHAAAT????

WHY?????

Weez awoke quite suddenly around 4 and vomited dangerously close to my head (on her blankie, thank God) I mean, there was NO warning, no prolonged gagging..........just one quick gag and then BLECH She spent the next hour going outside and back in......am a bit tired................

Over excited little girl!!!..... thankfully on HER blankie

wish for something a bit more raucous....

Should have been over earlier

HOLY CRAP! Those Twa can put the booze away

The younger kids are allowed half a glass of wine with lemonade (Dan's allowed a FULL glass 'cos he's 19 yrs ) at dinner.......but it seems to have a profound effect on Al ......GAAAWD we couldn't shut him up!!!!!!

Dan bought me 'Mamma Mia' (SUSIE!!!!!!! DO NOT READ!!!!!!!)

Which I highly recommend!!!........Al & I LOVE Abba ♫

Seriously cannot move now........... too full!........... no more! , sated cats laying sprawled at varying locations

Got ten at our table tonight..should be loverly. Games afterward, likely password and charades. My dad can no longer see very well, so he cannot really make out what the person is acting out. He now just shouts out things....."Oh!! That's a trapeze yer on! No....wait......you're directing traffic! you're back for a pass.....uh...NO! You're performing a Caesarian section!"

It's never easy to reenact a surgeon performing a caesarian

No way!!!!!!!!!!! .....<*giggle*>

Al's showing us new 'signs' he's learnt at school....we have to guess 'em (and DO them)

My sign was 'cheese' ..... quite funny

OH!!!...must tell you (tomorrow I think, REMIND me) about my dream!!!!!!!

It had Susie in it!....and we were business partners

A fun new twist to charades

[curlyfries]

Well, today was fun! We played a rowdy game of 'Chicken foot'......it's a form of Dominoes DD and her boyfriend took us to the theater to see "Marley and Me". Excellent movie, but OMG......the previews did not give any warning about the need for tissues! My brother was terribly sick today and could not come.

Em.........surely your MIL needs her eyes checked!

Soozie.....I wonder if Weezer's vomit episode was caused by whatever she was so guilty looking about. (does that sentence even make sense?)

OK......it's been over 4 hours.........where's all me drunken psillies?

[happygirl]

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[blueeyedmanda]

evening sillies

I spent the Christmas afternoon in bed with the worse headache. I swear I have a sinus infection. It was terrible. How was everyone elses christmas?

[tom]

Grrrrr bummer, Manda, your Highness. I take it a Proclamation didn't make it go away.

Better now I hope.

W/ time winding down, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas

Morning Sillies

tis back at work for me. But good news though its a 3-day weekend for us! We took Monday off, got to get some paperwork done for the house and some packing. I am thinking of skipping the painting and just moving in....maybe paint another day! I just want to start living in the new house!

Did you guys hear it will be another black friday today with stores trying to get rid of stuff? I am not braving the shopping scene but good luck to whoever else might be.

Good Boxing Day Morning, Psills!!

The cacophany continues today 'round here....Jack's birthday. Made the cake a couple of days ago, and his presents sit waiting. 'Tis a blur for that boy, this week is. Fer ME, too!

HOLY CRAP! Those Twa can put the booze away

Li'l drunken Twa.

At least they are little, and can stagger around under most things. Um, MIL cannot, and she was a 'feelin' NO pain last evening. I eventually gave her a small glass of absinthe. OMG. Well, she did get to bed.....and she did NOT get into my car.

Actually, perhaps she would drive better while hammered.

My fender is slightly dented, with a scratch. She knew about this happenstance, no question. . . . . ...Ah, such are the holidays. . . .....at least it was our lamp post and not one of our neighboUrs.....gad, like Mrs. Chow, who doesn't move too fast. .. . .....

The younger kids are allowed half a glass of wine with lemonade (Dan's allowed a

Dan bought me 'Mamma Mia' (SUSIE!!!!!!! DO NOT READ!!!!!!!)

Me too! A very phun philm. Jack and I lurved it. How can you not??

Glad your head is better, your Highness! Could it be our brain that needs a tune-up er sumfin?

[blueeyedmanda]

Happy Birthday Jack!!!!

I agree with the blur- my mom's birthday is the 21st.

Out of 19 coworkers only 3 of us are scheduled in today so it is very quiet in the office. Nice since I can get a lot of work done. It just seems like such a long day- I actually have my slippers on right now. Tis the day to be lazy

6 pages to catch up one readin but wanted to say.......

Good Morning All

Good mornin all! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Ours was pretty quiet, but had lots of good phone conversations and long distance hugs.

Kween Manda....I know just how you feel about the longing to be in your new home. We bought ours a little over a year ago. The PLAN was to thoroughly clean everything first, and then move.....but we got so excited about being in our new home, we spent one day cleaning and then started moving in. All of the painting got done after.....inside over the winter, outside this summer. Still have some painting to do but probably not till spring. I'm still re-organizing (which drives telahubby nuts), but am nearer to being happy with where everything is. Finally started getting pictures out for the walls, they will go up after Christmas gets put away.

I guess what I'm saying is that making the house a home is a process. Enjoy the move in, worry about the details as you have time. Try to avoid making it into pressure and frustration...it can be lots of fun! Good luck with the new home......a great adventure!

[flourgirl]

Another Black Friday? <shiver of dread face> uuunh! One is bad enough! Think I'll avoid it all, like I do the first one. The stores have been screaming and crying and rending their clothes, sitting in ashes and sackcloth and mourning over lost revenues, horrifying decrease in customers. You would have thought that each and every one was on the verge of collapse. And yet, after it all, sales were down....what.....5%?!! I know things are tough, but somehow I don't believe it's nearly as bad as the cries of the doomsayers are proclaiming!

That's it for todays sermon. I'm sure that our "market adjustments" will, in the end, prove to be not such a bad thing.

.....um, having some deja vu here, did I tell you guys this already?

And - - Weez has NOT gotten her paws on me leftovers thsi time, just had some bubble and squeak, YUM!

Oh, I think her wee barph episode was from the SKIN of the smoked salmon that Bad Mommy gave her too rich for her fat little tummy

My niece and her boyfriend drove 20 hours straight through to get here from Seattle

Saw my other niece's GORGEOUS engagement ring - - have almost two years to find and divorce my husband, as mentioned here before
