Good morning violets- I am sitting here fighting off a PB from dry toast. Ugh, I hate eating in the morning but I have to eat someting to take my meds. I am just so tight in the mornings I can barely get anything down!! Denise-I bet you are so excited about the house. When is the estimated completion date? Have a great day everyone!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here

Wow, I could go on & on, but I will stop there. OH WAIT....not to mention you look 5 years younger!!:smile2:- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here

Good morning violets... today my babygirl comes home.:thumbup: I enjoy when I have some momma tme but I sure do miss her!! We had to move her bedroom to another room. We swapped her with dss and dsd room. Macys room is the coldest room in the house even when the heat is on it is freezing cold in there. Since dsd and dss are here just a couple of times a month, they won't be affected too badly. We are almost through moving everything...just wall decorations and stuff in the closet left to move so it isn't that much. Jane-good for you on getting rid of the gold. Not bad money at all!! Everyone have a great Sunday!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a business card and wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of it and stuck it in the door. When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, "Genesis 3:10." Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter. Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock." Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked." :lol::cool2::huh2:- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here

Oh that is so cool! DH and I would love to go on that tour! My God, how long were you there? It seems that it would take hours to walk around that place!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Good morning violets- I actually slept all night and if I had weird dreams, i don't remember them! Those Chantix pills have been making me wake up 4 times a night so last nast was a real peaceful and restful night! I really needed that. Man...it is quiet with macy gone. I know she is having a blast. The party for her 'pop' went good yesterday. I only had one small sliver of cake. OH...I forgot to tell you all something. I ate a fold over chicken salad sandwich the other day! You are probably thing....ummm, so what. Here is the deal. That is the first peice of bread I have allowed myself to eat since 04/11/07. OMG, you would have thought it was a 9 course meal. I devoured every bite! It is nice to be in control of what I stick in my pie hole!! Anyway, I am just proud of that and wanted to share it with you all. Terri-ask your ps if he has a 2 for 1 deal going on :tea: Kat-i feel so bad for you. I am praying that your tooth heals quickly! Jane-you were a woman of alot of words in your last post....are you OK? Judy-how was your concert last night? Michelle-great NSV! way to go!! Pam-are you still on your trip? Jenn-hope you are feeling better! Laura-I meant to tell you I really enjoyed the religion vs. science thing you posted on here. love loved it! Hi Haydee, Suzie, denise, TracyKS and all my other violet sistas!! Have a great Saturday!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Jenn-Well YES all jobs have there bad days (except if you are a pro sports player or movie star, you know, jobs that make you a millionaire and you enjoy doing it!) I am glad you like it so far! That is really good. Terri-My mom & stepdad are coming to get macy:biggrin:Sooooo, I am going to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. I am actually going to have a glass of wine (or 2). I have not had any alcohol since way before my surgery. I just really do not drink that much anymore. Mainly because of dd. Glad you had a good time with your friends last night! Judy-I feel like a bulemic at times too. Some days, no trouble at all....others are horrific! Michelle-great job on resisting the temptations!! No, I am not supposed to get on here at work but, at least it isn't a porn site. If this is the worst thing I do there I figure that is pretty good!:teeth_smile: (hopefully they never findout though) Pamela-OMG....was the 51 dollar food good? I would probably only be upset if it tasted like dirt! Today when my mom & stepdad come to get macy we are having a birthday party for my stepdad. Macy insists on a cake. She designed the cake and told me to make sure the lady makes it jus the way she drew it. An orange sun, blue clouds and blue birds on a white cake.:crying: And it has to say happy b-day pop. We also have to have balloons, and a big bow on the front door. Terri-if it snows there today...take a pic for me:biggrin2:but be quick before it melts! lol Have a great day everyone!! Laura-I loved survivor last night....how about you?- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
So Jen, do you LIKE your job so far? Overall how is on on a scale from 1 to 10? (ten being the best of coarse) Kat-sorry your antibiotics are messing with you too! We are just falling apart aren't we? Hi Judy...Hi Laura, I see you both! Everyone have a great night. I am gonna go and get ready to watch Survivor....- Approved Today And Have Date!!!
Congrats...I know how happy you are! Good luck on your journey!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Laura-good lord woman. What a pain in the as* that treatment sounds like!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Its weird, sometimes they just do not go through or they take a long time. Where is everyone? Laura? Haydee? Suzie? Violet roll call....:thumbup::biggrin::cursing:- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Kat-did you get my PM?- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
wow, is it quiet in here today or what? Judy-your friends that are going on the same cruise are fortunate that they will be able to find out the do's and don'ts. That is cool! Pam-I agree...I love the way that little witch got thrown out of there. I know Joshuah has to be on cloud 9. Maybe we will see a more pleasant side of him now that she is gone. I don't know if there is gonna be a summer show or not. I sure hope so!! Jane- BB but the east coast finds out sooner than we do since they are ahead time wise and Pam cheats by getting online...LOL I will check in later....- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Jenn & Kat-hope you both feel better this morning!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Good morning violets- So good to 'see' you Lunasa! We have wondered what happened to you! Congrats to your sister on the baby! Pamela & Jane-oh, oh, oh did I love BB last night or what?! I was SO hoping they would let them play as singles before Ryan left. I am glad allison is gone. I wonder if that was the only alarm that will sound...? I was up on & off last night. I feel OK as long as I am sitting down. Walking is slowwww going. The antibiotics must not mix well with the Chantix cause I was so neauseated last night. I will take them at different times and see if that helps. Have a great day everyone.... We miss you Tracy!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
We could ALL use a little Demerol in our lives....Kat, are you planning on sharing? hmmm? even though I am a little more partial to liquid valium:w00t: The dr always says hot water & hot packs. I will probably have to self medicate before I attempt either one of those cause the pain will be a heck of alot worse. Maybe some soma or vicodin can talk me into a hot bathtub...:thumbdown: I am not a drug head, just a sissy:tongue2: Kat-glad you are on your way to recovery!! Pam & Jane-I have a feeling that BB is gonna be a good one tonight. Do either of you know what that 'alarm' business is about? have a great night violets!!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Hi ladies.... Well, it is over. When the dr came in I was bawling my eyes out. He says "Tracy, I havn't done anything yet". I said through tears "its gonna huuurrrrt!". I mentioned to him my oral surgeon is the next door over and I could run over there and get some liquid valium, LOL. He ended up giving me deadening shots (thank God) then tells the nurse "oh no, not the needle, I need a knife". I scream..."can't you people use sign language or something for Gods sake? I could have done without hearing THAT". My dr has a very good sense of humor. He could see when he walked in that I was really upset. After the numbing shots I did not feel a thing. He cut in the shape of a + sign...I can't even begin to imagine what it is going to feel like when the deadener wears off. He wrote me a script for some really powerul antibiotics and wants me back next week to make sure I am healing properly. Thank you all for the purple power vibes... Laura-you poor thing! I can't even think of hw it must e to have more than one of these painful things! Your dermatologist doesn't know what causes it?- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Good morning violets- Hump day! (wish I were typing TGIF instead) Jenn,Suzie & Kat-I sure hope you feel better soon. ***The next paragraph is not for the squemish (sp)*** Believe it or not I have to call my ob/gun again today because the boil (or whatever it is) from about a month ago still has not gone away....even after he ripped it open last time. It looked like it was getting better then BAM, it came back and I have not been able to drain it good enough I guess. Maybe an ingrown hair? I am in such gruelling pain. The thought of letting him rip it open again is more than I can take. I am next to tears but I know that is the only way it will get better. Oh well, the bright side is at least it is getting documented and maybe it will help insurance cover my TT. Please think of me today friends....I am not looking forward to this dr visit at all. It hurts SO bad. Sorry if that was TMI but I am scared to death and had to share with my sistas. Try to have a great day violets!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Kat & Jenn-hope you both fell better soon!! ((((hugs)))) - Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
