Shrinking Violets - Part 5!

Here you go, my Sweet Violets! Another new home for our daily musings....

Hello!!

Well I sent the tweezers out Tuesday or Wednesday and got Pamela's back today saying and I quote "COATED, COVERED, DEFACED OR REUSED RETURN FOR POSTAGE" So I am wondering if I will get Haydee's and Michelle's back too. I am too sure, I have two BRAND NEW stamps on Pamela's package, I did tape over them, but I used clear tape, I taped the top closed, then the peel kind of stamps wouldn't stick so I put CLEAR tape over it. I am pissed can you tell????????? So the tweezers are coming, soon, I promise!!!!!!!

By the way Laura did you see the "Modern Family" when the two gay guys were doing the farber training on their adopted daughter? It was hilarious......

YES, and I was totally the blubbering one.

Hey Chickies~

WHAT A CRAZY LONG DAY!!! Klaus doesn't have this "sleepingwithmymommies" thing down yet. 4am...he was up, and so were we! Been up since. I was the principal today....LLOONNGG DAY dealing w/ naughtiness! But it did FLY by!

Then a couple errands and then met our agent at 4:30!!! Are you ready! WE ARE GONNA PUT IN AN OFFER ON A HOUSE. I am gonna post the link here RESIDENCE 2 and send you a few pix. It is OUTSTANDING!

Janie, so sorry the tweezers turned into a mess. I'd like to take care of cost and shipping! You do rock honey...thanks!

We have a flip but haven't used it yet. Maybe we will soon, perhaps on the new house!

I LOVE my Kindle. I am a book collector and I still love my kindle. I love the ease, convenience and it feels better than holding a book. You know when you get in bed, and you are all set up...and then you have to adjust each page for the lighting, etc...well, you just stay put w/ the kindle! I am reading The Open by Andre Agassi now...LOVE IT...but have been a huge fan of his for years!

OK...off for now. I'll post in the am. Oh yeah...check out the link for residence #2...then pack a bag and come hang out and go swimming!

Pamela, it is not the money, although I will be damned if they make me pay for two more stamps!! Now it has kind of turned into the 'Adventure of the Tweezers'! Really shipping for yours was 84 cents. Congrats on the whole house deal!! How exciting!!!!! I have been saying for about 5 or 6 years now that 'this is the year I am going to get a new floor covering' do I? No, my customers quit asking about it because they know now that I can procrastinate..........................................

Alright going to bed, not a real busy day tomorrow, then after work go to my parents house for the weekly Anna fix or feud whichever way she feels. If she is in a fighting mood, my parents need all the help they can get!! Just wish I didn't have to work at all on Saturdays and take care of Anna for them!

Good Morn...

I'm back to busy, busy... sorry I wasn't on yesterday. I went from having NO work to 2 projects, which is fantastic, but keeps me very busy... + kid stuff that starts between 2-3pm & doesn't end 'til bedtime! 2 full-time jobs!

PAMELA! It's BEE-U-TIFUL!!! Thanks for the e-mail pics... you two look so happy! I'm so excited for you!

Off to take dd to the barn, ds is already @ soccer... then more soccer tonight and 2 soccer activities + barn again tomorrow... & so it goes!!

Everyone make it a great day... I'm gonna go search flight prices to Palm Springs! :biggrin:

Good morning!

Off for another day of work and then babysitting!! Have a great day!!!!!!!!

Good morning, Violets..

PamELA!!!! You bought the house???? EXCELLENT!!! It looks just beautiful. Is it the original house you were looking at?? We need details ... # of rooms, square footage, depth of pool, how many Violets it can accommodate at one time! :biggrin:

We are heading out of town for the day. Everyone make it a good one. Will check back in tonight..

LOL...we are putting in an offer tomorrow and meeting w/ the mortgage guy. 2850 sq feet and the spa will hold all the violets!!! Remember in TX all of us in the spa...haha! Good times!

Well, the last email picture showed you two with a SOLD sign, so I just assumed!!

We are back from being out of town for the day. Got some shopping in. I now have a new suitcase for Texas.:biggrin: Started looking at dresses, but not finding anything right now.

We had lunch at Ponderosa. I had a salad, one chicken drumstick and a couple of bites of stuffing with gravy. No dessert.. Bob said I didn't eat enough, but I was full. Not even hungry for supper. I got some blueberries and I know I'll have those for a treat this evening.

I went to Ponderosa about 3 years ago and I questioned the price because it was so cheap, and she said "That was with the Senior Citizens discount!!!!!!!". I am still trying to get over that one...............

No returned mail today, I am wondering if Michelle and Haydee's tweezers somehow got through but Pamelas didn't? I talked to the mailman today at work and he laughed and told me to bring it next week to work and he would see what he could do.

Well I think I am going to go get in my pj's and chill!

Ok, I realize that I am 7 months late on this, but...

We just watched "This Is It" and I was truly struck by what an artistic genius MJ was and overwhelmed by how tragic his death was (yes, he's dead)... I didn't know then what I know now about how hard he was working, or even that he WAS working, & how amazing that show would've been... I feel so sorry for everyone who worked on that show that they were so close but never got to perform it... I hope tomorrow night @ the Grammy's the singers/dancers get to perform in the tribute... wow, what a waste of a life... how is it that no one could say "No" to him or be real w/him or help him... so so sad...
