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

I still have a bottle of tequila and mix at home!!

ME TOO!! Both unopened lol. I also have half the bottle of vodka...

Heather - I am truly sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I'm sure you are devastated. And about all the other stuff too! I can't believe all that happened on top of that. Again, so sorry!

Oh Laura, that's great news! I'm so glad that you were able to get some help in getting this done. Are you going to the same doctor??

Pam - thanks for the suggestion but the girl doesn't read!! She is a TV junkie though. sigh.... I'm off to the mall to see what I can find...

two Violets with unopened bottles liquor??? Who would have thought! We've come a long way from our crazy drunken party days... he he he

woohoo LAURA!!

I'm not a drinker unless it's a special occasion, like oh I dunno..a V bash.

If I feel like the occasional drink, it's fruity sugar-laden wine.

Oh meant to tell ya'll too, a funny story! Went to gyno for my 6m checkup, and I told her how my hooha hurts during sex.

So she checking it out, she said I have Vaginissmus (sp). Apparently my muscles spasm in anticipation of pain whenever somethin is goin in there. I guess from all the hands they stuck up there during labor!! Although, I thought it was all very odd since I didn't have a vaginal birth that my hooha hurts. In any event, she said the best thing to do is physical therapy. She said whenever I'm sitting around or in the tub/shower, to stick a finger or two in there. LULZ. I had a hard time keeping a straight face. She said it so non-chalant, like that's a normal thing to do..sit around fingering yourself. Mmhm.

HAHA Laura...that made me LOL for real! As if you've got that kind of time. I usually like dinner and a movie before I get to homebase with myself! HAHAHA

Seriously, I don't have time to post much these days, much less twiddle around!

snorted coffee out my nose...

seriously, sit around and twiddle? is she nuts?? who does that? Can you just imagine if juan came home and i'm watching oprah and twiddling? He's gonna be like, uh you got the hots for oprah or something??

ha ha ha ha... too funny...

got back from the mall. ended up buying my sister a perfume. i know i said i wasn't gonna buy her anything like that but i know she's been wanting this fragrance for a few months now. Came with a cute clutch as a free gift so thats awesome...

I'm meeting up with her and her friends for sushi and adult beverages tonight. Lord help me!

Heather... My condolences to you & your family... lots of purple power & good thoughts being sent your way!!

Laura... Yay on the surgery! While on liquids, remember that the FUZE slenderize raspberry/acai & vodka (which you say is conveniently open!) on ice is a QUICK, yummy, sweet drink! ... What kind of gyno do you go to?! (Oh wait, that smilie's using the wrong body part!)

Haydee... I was @ the mall today too, shopping for a Sweet 16 b'day. Remember my friend w/the dd who was at the mental health facility in Utah last year? Well, today she's 16 & doing great. She invited our family to join her b'day dinner tonight @ our fav Chinese rest. I ended up getting her a bunch of $16 gift cards from all over the mall... + I'm going to the rest. early w/a dozen helium balloons & confetti & party hats, blowers + a Coldstone cookie dough pie!

Janie, you make the BEST margi's!! mmmmm!

Hi Pam & Judy!

Off to wrap up the cards & get over to the Dollar Store & restaurant (right next to each other). THEN DS receives an Academic Excellence Award for last year's GPA tonight @ 7pm. So proud.

Then home & BED! Busy Day #1 will be done!

Thanks for the laugh, Laura. I needed it today. Honestly I have been having the same problem but haven't spoken to a gyno yet. I was kind of hoping it would resolve itself over time and I could spare myself that discussion, lol. I am happy that you are getting your revision soon.

I appreciate everyones condolences. It is nice just to be able to write it out and get responses . . . I am too sensitive on the subject to talk about it but writing works well.

Speaking of alcohol, it may have been more than two years since I have drank anything but I still have a liquor cabinet (although I wasn't shy about yummy virgin margaritas during pregnancy). I wonder if that stuff is any good anymore, lol.

Yea to Laura on the surgery plans....and Heather, my sincerest condolences....

Liquor I believe stays pretty good....at least real alcohol, like whiskey, vodka etc....wines, syrupy stuff that stuff doesn't seem to keep...I cleaned out our liquor cabinets a few weeks ago...moral of the story, buy big halg gallon/liters of booze when you are young....we have bought some of these on our cruises/trips and we do not drink that much anymore, not like in our 20's-30's....still trying to get the nerve to open some Bailey's that is unopened but in cabinet for a while....it would be really sad if Bailey's made me meet my demise....

Here's his sear's pics.

Unfortunately, after the first outfit (he reacted great to the guy, in his overalls). He got scared some reason, so he was boohooing like nuts. Such a bummer, and the guy said he 'had' to do certain poses, Sears makes them, like tummy--He HATES tummy, so of course that didn't help.

Oh well, I did get some really cute shots!

My favorite is where he's looking over his shoulder.

Heather, several people I know who had babes recently are going through it too. No one has asked their doc. I asked my doc! Hah hah. My mom said it went away in 3 months for her, she said drink some wine or something. I've already done that..

Laura, that was so funny about twiddling. Instead of tweeting you're twiddling!!! Too funny.

Love all the pics of Carson!!!!!!!!!

Good evening, Violets.

I wrote a long post this afternoon and it went poof, so I gave up and closed up the puter.

I left here at 2:30 for a 3:00 church meeting. The staff all met with the "babysitter" for the pastor. We told him exactly how we all felt and we all talked for an hour and 20 minutes. If he doesn't know how we feel and what we are up against by now, he'll never know it.

They have agreed to a 6 month program where the "babysitter" will mentor the pastor and try and get things to turn around. I think it is just ridiculous, a lost cause and I'll be glad to be done in June.

It is very yucky weather outside right now. 37 degrees and raining. I bet it will be snow by tomorrow morning. The Bobster leaves to go out of town for the day. I'm meeting with the Presbyterian pastor's wife an hour before our PMS luncheon. She wants to know how I'm doing with all the turmoil. I don't know how much I'll tell her, but at least she'll know I'm not happy.

I had a great eating day today in spite of everything else. I had a small cup of mandarin oranges for breakfast, lobster bisque for lunch and canadian cheese soup for supper. Nothing in between. The only thing I didn't get in was some exercise. I hope to get some walking in tomorrow after my meetings.

Laura, so glad to hear you're going to get the revision done. And I had to chuckle at your description of your grandpa. Carson's pics are just adorable. I can't believe he didn't win the calendar contest. And I'm not going to say a word about your twiddle dee dee....

Off to read my new book on the Kindle.. The Help. Everyone have a good evening. Sleep well!
