awww cool! that sounds awesomeness. Yes, I vote for that please!

Hurray for your raise Dr.!

I'm afraid to sound like a total hick but what the heck is "taking of the waters". I really thought it was drinking something when you PM'm me, LOL...

Jane and Heather, we'd love to have you here! It happens in Feb/March. The weather is awesome and it's so much fun. We've been every single year since my family came to Houston. I'm here! Just a long day yesterday... I was training a new manager so he was on my computer and I couldn't pop on here... I'm trying to get everything ready for next week since it's gonna be a short week for me. I'm off Monday and then Friday too! I'm so excited to come see you Pam! Which shirt of mine did you like that much that you would consider wearing?? I bet it's the sheer one with a black tank top underneath? Or the hot pink one with ruffles along the v-neck? Heather - Texans love turkey legs!! We have them at every festival and you HAVE to try one next time you come down here. They are so good! I'm starving! I think I might take an early lunch and go and grab some chili from Wendy's. Tonight I have a 3-hour long class at church. It's about being able to spot child abuse... it's a requirement to take it if you work with children at my church. I'm on my period right now so very emotional so I cry at anything. I hope it's not to detailed or graphic or else I won't be able to get through it... Judy - you should come with us to CA. Bob will have many many birthdays, LOL! Scones are not my favorite just because they are a little too dry. I like everything else though! As you can see on my fat butt! I'm off to find some food now. I have noticed that if I let myself get hungry hungry I get in trouble trouble...

thanks for the tip with the salt. I'm gonna try to make that salad for a saturday brunch that we're invited to... i'm leaving now! woohoo!!!!! Everyone have a great weekend!!!!

Laura - he's too cute!!! ohmygaw I love his little tush!

Terry that salad sounds delish! Does the cucumber let off alot of water? I've found that when I make sliced cucumber salad I always end up with soggy cucumbers. What am I doing wrong?? I am so exhausted today. We definetly overdid it last night. I got off of work late then ran home to get ready for dinner. We had a nice leisurely dinner then decided to walk over three blocks to a club and have a drink. We were only gonna stay for a little while but the music was good so we had fun dancing and it was 1am before we even realized it. Didn't go to bed till past two...I barely made it in to work this morning on time... I'm gonna get home tonight and just crash. I have a busy weekend ahead too.... blah... I wanted to stay in my jammies all weekend. That aint happening...

okay, someone help me out. When I make ribs in the crock pot do i put the BBQ sauce immediately and let them cook in the sauce or put something else in there with them and then the last couple hours put the sauce in?

Good morning girls! Terry - I'm so sorry you're going through all this right now. I really wish I could help but I don't know how... All I can do is keep praying for you! TracyKS - YAY on no ice cream for two days! Why is Robbie so skinny? I love coupons too but never take the time to organize myself enough to actually use them effectively... Tracy - do you mind telling me how much you paid for your personal training sessions? I would like to do it so that they tell me how to get the most out of my time at the gym. i'm not done posting but my boss is calling me into his office! i'll be back...

I checked, the calorie savings isn't significant. It's only saving you about 135 calories... But it's something!

the cereal thing does help. A few nights ago I wanted ice cream and I didn't have any and Juan wouldn't get out of bed to go get me some (yes, he sometimes does!), so I opted for a small bowl of honey nut cheerios. Satisfied my sweet craving!

i was, of course, kidding... i think the other two might be soft drinks and anything mushie?

nacho cheese and gravy both things i eat by the cup full, lol...

I ate ice cream for dinner last night. It's now Noon and I haven't drank even a drop of water. Yuck. Just checking in. Loads of crap on my desk. I'm about to start my period so very hormonal right now. I want to scream at people and bite their heads off about every single little thing so I have my door closed so that I don't get into trouble.

laura, i kinda like her. i like her in movies better than her singing. why?

Oh lordy, heather you should have never let your husband read that comment. He will forever walk around with a big head, LOL... I might have to try that sopapilla cheesecake recipe for tomorrow night. Another Rockets game so it means a houseful of boys. So that means no danger of leftovers! Pam - People just need to be sensitive to others. If we all lived by that mantra then the world would be a better place. Like I said, even though our culture is okay with doing what we do, we are sensitive to the fact that others are there to be reflective. But not everyone is as respectful as we are... Laura - did you have any hail damage to your cars or do you park them in the garage? At our old house we used to keep the garage clean and cluttler free so that we could park inside but ever since we moved to this house, OVER TWO YEARS AGO, we still have boxes and crap crammed in there. I never go in there cuz it just depresses me, LOL... Sorry to hear about your sister. Sounds like she needs major major help. Ever thought about going on INTERVENTION with her?

Absolutely Terry. I hope everything is okay. I will keep him in my prayers. I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend! We had a blast and am tired as usual. I think picnics at the cemetary are a cultural thing? We visit my grandmother's and great granmother's grave pretty frequently and almost always picnic there. We don't view death as a somber occassion. We are very festive about it as we feel that our loved ones are in a better place looking down on us. I know my grandmother's greatest joy came when we all came together to celebrate something so that's usually what we do when we go visit her resting spot. We sit around thinking about her and sharing We have a large family lot with about 10 sites and only three are filled. My grandmother, great grandmother and a cousin that died in an auto accident. We do not disrespect other people when they are there by being loud, as usually we are the only ones around, and we are not 'on top' of other gravesites. I realize that we are not the norm but just wanted to explain that this does happen!

I'm so ready to goooooooooooooooo... Game starts at 8:30 but I'm meeting friends for drinks and wings at 6pm. I wish I could leave early but I don't really have a good excuse, he he he... Terry - my dad has a friend that has season tickets and he travels alot so he gives them to us when he doesn't use them. Tracy - when you joined 24hr fitness they did mention that you could buy the lifetime membership plan? They never mentioned it to me when I first signed up 5 years ago. By now I would be going for free for the rest of my life but I just found out about it last month.

I guess I'm going for the most posts in one day record or something. Weekend plans are gonna be pretty standard.... I've got nothing scheduled for Saturday except some showings in the afternoon. Hoping to catch a movie tomorrow night. Sunday is a big huge deal at our house. Lots of cooking to be done mostly by me and my sisters... We have all my aunts and cousins and friends and Juan's family and his aunts all coming over to my mom's. We go to church first, then the cemetary to leave flowers on my grandma's grave and then home to start cooking... OH, tonight I'm going to the Rockets game. We're in the playoffs against the Lakers. Game 3 tonight. I'm so excited!! I'm gonna run out for lunch with my co-worker. Be back shortly!

Judy - I'm like you, I love a good bargain! Even though my closet is bulging I do wear everythign in it and I HATE paying full price for anything. And I wear the heck out of my clothes! I take care of them and am able to use them alot... Tracy - YOU ARE DOING AWESOMENESS!! Did you join 24-hr fitness? The hot tub there is amazing. You should try it next time. I wear my bathing suit under my gym clothes... Laura - awww, that is so nice of your mom to do that for you! I'm sure it'll happen frequently! Will there be any shenanigans in that alone time with Russ or just plain sleep? LOL!!! Pamela - I keep meaning to ask if the fires they are talking about are anywhere near you. Can you have them out by the time me and Michelle get there? K? Thanks! LOL... I'm seriously so excited! Kat - WOO HOO! Rick better hold on to something, LOL! HAVE FUN RIDING TODAY!

what the heck is going on with this website... okay let me keep going...

why the heck did that post... i wasn't done yet!

Good morning girlies! Jane - I hope today is a better day. I had a crappy day Tuesday but yesterday was much better... Thank you so much for the products you sent to me. I'm gonna do my hair straight for mother's day so I'm gonna use them... Have you posted pics of your parent's anniversary yet? I miss your face!! Terry - I LOVE TEXAS. I mean seriously would never consider living anywhere else... buuuuttttt, I LOVE to get the heck outta here and see other places too! I just love those pics that you posted! You're gonna have soo much fun!

mother clucker, i'd be pissed too pamela! Judy - i'm glad you feel better...no cases of the flu up by you? Is anyone even worried about this?? I see the news going crazy about this but in everyday life I see no one is concerned. We just go about our business as usual. We are being more careful about hand washing but that's about it... I finally drank coffee yesterday to get my fish unstuck. But the rest of the day I still felt sore so I couldn't eat anything. I was on the phone with one of juan's aunts and told her about it and she told me she would make me some hot soup to make me feel better. Well she literally made it HOT. Like super duper spicy hot. I took one sip and my nose just started burning, I started crying and choking at the same time. She added one serrano pepper to the soup to give it flavor and didn't think it would make that spicy but wholy moley. So I spooned some sour cream in my mouth to make it stop hurting and that helped alot. So again, I didn't eat. I went home and started picking up because my cleaning people come today and finally decided to have a bowl of cereal. Surprisingly that went down just fine. I thought I was gonna struggle with my cherrios but luckily I didn't. So today I'm starving! I'm so ready for the weekend. Saturday I don't have anything scheduled but Sunday will be busy busy busy. I'm gonna go get some coffee...

yep, i remember your no-booty booty!
