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

"Thus nature has no love for solitude, and always leans, as it were, on some support; and the sweetest support is found in the most intimate friendship."

- Cicero

Hey now, Pam! We were well behaved... at least I was... I didn't get into the pool tipsy in my underwear! :drool:

Good times, good times! :crying:

Plumber has arrived...

Helpful hint to all.... never grind spinach in the garbage disposal. It turns to pulp.:crying:

I didn't lose that last 50lb either.. damn.

I still haven't gotten anything done!!!

Carson is plugging along, his snot turned into thick green nastiness this morning, BOO!! Means it is turning into infection. I got more scoop on the swine flu yesterday, the girl in his class had it on Thurs & Fri, and the teach said it's a 7-10 incubation period. So we may not know till I'm already gone.

And for interesting gossip---I can't believe she TOLD the daycare workers--- but apparently this stay at home mom was in the ER the night before with her swine flu baby, they gave it tamiflu in the hospital so it masks the symptoms, and she brings it back into daycare. Why would a SAHM need regular daycare you may ask, esp. when baby has swine flu?? BECAUSE SHE'S HAVING AN AFFAIR!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously!!!!! I couldn't believe it. So she said they 'terminated' her. I always wondered what it took to get kicked out of daycare, now I know.

I need to tie a string on my finger to remember to think about packing when I get home. I swear I keep forgetting till I get to work and see you guys on the forum LOL.

I need to send out the gift (it's not something I care to travel with, NO it doesn't need batteries, it's just bulky), and it's still sitting at home in my closet. Need to wrap the rest. Stress, stress, ahhh.

Plumber has arrived...

Helpful hint to all.... never grind spinach in the garbage disposal. It turns to pulp.:crying:

I grew up with a tank I believe it was, so we never used the disposal. So to this day I have a hard time putting anything in it--Russ on the other hand wants to put EVERYTHING in it. We learned the hard way you can not put the silky strands from fresh corn in there. Knots up and wraps around it all.

Just back from WW... I lost 3.8#!!!! That with the 4.2# from last time makes 8# since May 3! I'm pumped!!!

AND the plumber was gone when I got back. Sink is back to normal, tie is found, will check in right now and we are good to go!!!!!:biggrin::crying:

Alright Judy!!!!!

Off for work for me!!!!!!!!!!!

FANTASTIC, Judy!

out the door!!! See you soon!!!

Judy thats great!!!!! Hope everyone has safe travels....and a great time....I'll dust in here while you all are gone....just have a margie for me.....:smile2:

Hello, finishing up packing, will be getting up at about five or so. My parents are coming to take me away at 6:30. My house is a mess. I have the new Real Simple Magazine to read on the plane that tells me on the cover it can get me organized????????????

That must be one magic magazine, Janie!!

Safe travels tomorrow, everyone! See you soon!! :smile2::biggrin::smile:

Best thing I've said all day!!!

SEE YOU TOMORROW...'cept Laura...see you Friday!

xooxxoxo

safe travels girls!

Good monring!! I am showered my hair is dry, I am sitting here just drinking my coffee before getting dressed and throwing curlers in my hair.

Laura, I told that story about the lady and the sick child a few times yesterday. Seems like h1n1 is going around here also. I hope everyone especially Carson fares well with this!!! See you tomorrow!!!

Everybody else see you soon or hold down the fort!!!!

Bye!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Girls~

We are up, packed and ready. Susanne is in a grumpy mood :smile2: hope that changes...but it is the butt crack of dawn as we've been up since 3:50am!

I lost 7 lbs on WW over two weeks!!! I didn't even really try much, was only really good on 5 days of the two weeks...and had many liquid calories:wink:. I am not counting or worrying about it in TX...and will start again when I get back. I am pretty excited...think about what I could have lost had I not had the cocktails, chips and salsa etc!!!

OK...logging off...Be back Monday!!! xooxxo

Hope you all get there and have lots of fun tonight, I will see ya'll tomorrow sometime after 2:15pm!

We are going to go to breakfast in the morning, take Carson to daycare, then Russ will drop me off on the way to work. Carson's cough is getting worse, his boogers are green and his eyes are watering.. but he hasn't had a fever yet, so I'm still hopeful that he's going to get better any day now!
