I canNOT believe this... I had the most beautiful, touching, wonderful 1st post to this new thread and "POOF!" -- it's gone!

Maybe it's the cyber-world telling me it's time to get to bed... good night, my lovelies!!

Terry -- Great idea!! I like the way you think!

Kat -- That certainly IS idiotic! Ugh!

Am having king crab stuffed salmon "pinwheels" for dinner tonight! Now, if I can just keep away from the brownies that I'm also baking as a treat for dh (it's his last dinner here 'til the 16th...)... I did good & didn't even lick a finger when I made them... I put them in a small square pan, in the hopes that they'll get eaten quicker that way! lol!!

Enjoy the eve, girls...

Heather, where in the country do you live? What are you studying for? Violets want to know!

Laura, where the hell are you?

I'm in Ohio which is rather cold and unpleasant this time of year . . . but our summers are mild and perfect.

I am finishing up the last three classes for my MBA as well, I should be done this Summer. I am only taking one class at a time with my schedule and pregnancy.

Hi everyone...haven't done personals in a while so here goes....

Michelle-I agree with the others, a to do list for your dh is definitely in order! lol Will really serve him right!

Judy-I am a silly one at times. I read when you post about the wii fit and I want one even more. hmmm, maybe one with the income tax refund? Doubt it, I need to stick it in our savings. *sigh*

Jennifer-watch out, that 5 pounds can turn to 15 like THAT (could you hear the snap?) lol Glad you are happy though, that is very important!

Haydee-hope things are better with Juan. What were you doing eating oatmeal in Houston traffic for?

Terry-how is the beading business going? You do not really talk about it too much anymore.

Jane-so how was the customer that drives you nuts? Did she? Are you OK? lol

TracyinKS-hows your butt? lol (sorry, had to do that) :thumbup: You know we care about your ass! lmao! I am on a roll....but really, I hope you are OK!

Suzie-how was your superbowl fish fry?

Kat-I love that you are on facebook! I really enjoyed seeing the photos.

Laura-coming hme with what you went with moneywise is excellent! We are going to a casino in LA weekend after next. It has been so long, I can not wait!! How did your dad do in the tournament?

Pamela-I am so ready for big brother I can't see straight. I get so attached to those folks. Am I abnormal? lol They become like my 2nd family. lol

OK everyone, have a great night.

BTW... HI HEATHER!

I am so ready for big brother I can't see straight. I get so attached to those folks. Am I abnormal? lol They become like my 2nd family. lol

OK everyone, have a great night.

So Tracy, don't you have any like REAL family? I know you mention your folks and your sister....and I also KNOW if BB is a 2nd family, then we Violets have to be #1......where does that leave the blood kind?????

HUH?????

Good evening, Violets.

Choir is done and I'm whipped. Just finished supper. I had a couple bites of pot roast and just wasn't that into it. Bob is having the potatoes and carrots and gravy. I'll make a strawberry and cream concoction in a little bit and call it a day. All I've had today is tuna and soy nuts.. Breakfast and lunch and just a few almonds around 4:00. Just don't seem to be hungry.

I'll watch some tv tonight and head to bed early and hope I can get some sleep. Ethan comes at 8 again tomorrow for the day.

Laura... great pics of Carson. I remember Kris's pictures.. the baby looked like melting candle wax.. lol 2 and a half more weeks and I'll know if it's Madison or Grady.

She's finally cut back to working 2 days a week. She's on her feet all day and I'm glad she's going to start taking it easy.

Kat... so glad Manda is home and feeling better.

We need to call our CPA tomorrow and make an appointment to get our taxes done. With all of Bob's jobs and our portfolio and special things having to do with clergy, it's way easier, though much more costly, for us to have them done instead of doing them ourselves.

Michelle...enjoy your quiet time with DH away. Sometimes I appreciate having a little time to myself.

Just got off the phone with DD Kris. She is an LPN and has been working 4 days a week on her feet all day. She asked for Wednesdays off and was granted that, but then asked for Mondays off too because it's their busiest day. They told her yes yesterday, today they told her no so she said tomorrow is her last day. She was crying and thought she was going to go into labor. She wants to come back to the job after 12 weeks, but isn't sure they will have her back now and that frustrates her. Her DH Nathan is going to call tomorrow and tell them how upset he is with them. For gosh sakes, she's 9 months pregnant, due to deliver in 2 and a half weeks and standing on her feet all day!! They are making unreasonable demands. I worked up until delivery, but I was able to teach from a chair and was still exhausted by the end of the day. I don't know how she's worked this long. Will have to wait and see what happens tomorrow.

Going to watch some tv and head to bed early. Hope every has a good night. Sleep well.

Hey Girls,

Field trip was good. It was a jazz story telling show. The kids were great. I wish I could fund a field trip to LA's Museum of Tolerance. I want to take them so bad...but it is expensive. OH well.

Laura, welcome back. I have to go back and look at Carson's pix.

Michelle, enjoy your special time.

Judy, you rock! Are you ready for summer?

Kat, how are the hives? I hope things settle a bit now that Manda is on the mend.

TracyK, I too can't wait for BB. Glad you are getting all settled in the new place.

TracyKS, how is Robbie doing? How are things w/ you sista? Mom ok?

Jennifer, I am glad you are feeling happy these days. Enjoy it!

Terry, can't wait to sit and bullshit w/ you. Someone asked about the jewlery? You still getting time to make it?

Susie, where have you been? Did I miss a post or two...you seem quiet lately!

Janie, got any cool plays on the horizon? I love plays...wish we had some around here.

Heather, thanks for the post w/ info. My g-pa is from Denison Ohio...always meet cool people from Ohio!

OK ladies...I know I am on the wrong thread..but I am jazzed about the trip!

Watching the United States of Tara...my new fav show...and Sus is out for a bit! Gonna watch tv and play scrabble. Should be doing work...but can't seem to get my head around it!

Hello, It's me Suzanne.

We just got home from our shift at the hospital. We were super duper busy. A lot of Flu and nazaly stuff going around here.

On top of that, there is just a lot of crap going on in the family. I guess I shouldn't say crap. Just a lot of stuff going on. Having problems with older sis and her kids. Younger sis is sick. A neice in the hospital, Hubby having his 6 month blood work up done. And than I have to go to the Shrink tomorrow and tell him about my life and wonder why I find it so hard to lose weight. It's just all the little stuff that makes things a little harder to keep my life on track. I'll figure out the road I need to be on and make it as smoothly as I can.

Over the weekend I had the worst bathroom problems again. I'm thinking that maybe I better go see the Doc and see if something else is going on.

I have my next fill in two weeks and am so looking forward to it. I need one this time. The last two times I didn't get one.

I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow. I'll let you know what the Shrink had to say when I get a chance.

Thinking of all of you.

TracyinKS, did you ever get a chance to take a picture of that thing I sent you?????? I think the group would get a kick out of it.

Laura, I know it's a little early but I don't know when I'll be on tomorrow, so here goes.

Happy Birthday to You,

Happy Birthday to You.

Happy Birthday Dear Laura.

Happy Birthday to You.

G'nite! :sleep: :thumbup:

G'morning!

Happy Birthday Little MAMA!!! :sleep::w00t::w00t:

So Tracy, don't you have any like REAL family? I know you mention your folks and your sister....and I also KNOW if BB is a 2nd family, then we Violets have to be #1......where does that leave the blood kind?????
