Um....Hello? I hope this slight was not rooted in sexism??

Well, this is a catch 22. Dare I say I forgot all about you? :smile: Never....

:biggrin: HiYa Plain. Stick around, there is more abuse to be dished!

Hi everyone...just a quick drive by posting. Gotta get dd packed and ready for her final weekend to mawmaw & pops before school starts! Actually it is Aunts first, then mawmaw & pops. She is packed but I need to make sure that it is done correctly. You know, not 7 pairs of shorts 2 dresses and no underwear or toothbrush. lol

I will post personals again later. Have a great day everyone!

Hey guys, It's raining here now. We really need it though. grass around here is brown.

I worked a long shift and then went and got Sis and took her to the grocery store. It was pretty hot out there so I moved her along. Took her home and than came home and put my bathing suit on. Hubby and I got in the pool for about an hour It started to cloud up.

I got a call from the second shift girl saying that the owner was there showing the place. We've known for a long time that she has the place on the market. Her and her husband want to move to Colorado. Hope she finds someone soon.

Off to go make a pork chop casserole, hubby's favorite.

Bye.

Busy Day!!!!

Kinsey was here for a bit, then took her to my Moms so I could do my running. Went and got wood permits for both BLM wood cutting and Forest wood cutting----then took the saw blades in, then hit Walmart for EVERYTHING!!! $200.00 later it is put away and I STILL don't know what's for dinner!

I mailed shirts to TX & NY today, as well as another box to LA to my grandsons. Keep watch for them, I hope they are at least somewhat in the ballpark for what you had in mind.

This was the 70th anniversary for sturgis, and the 70th Tshirt SUCKED!!!!!! I thought they would have some awesome ones. Wrong. The licensed shirt was 2 skeletons in the 69 position, with another skeleton stripping off a shirt, to join in. It said 69+1 there is always room for 1 more...........I thought it was not what any of us wanted. Sure everyone laughed when they saw it the first time, but the guy said it was not selling well at all in his booth.

Anyway, Rick just pulled up so we are headed out to pick up the saw chains so we can work our butts off this weekend.

But we played the last couple so guess it is ok!!!

Saturday morning and I'm up because it is my day to work. We had some really huge storms last night.No problems here but there were a few houses hit by lightning. Lots of Water. Pool is full.

We are going to an "Open House" today. A girl we work with moved into a place and she is having all her friends over. We really like her alot, she is very vocal and fun loving. She is also very openly gay, I mean VERY openly. Hubby is worried that he's going to see something that he shouldn't see. I told him that right now she doesn't have a girl friend but that her other friends may be there and to be prepared. I've been around it all my life and it doesn't bother me. He's an old country boy and has only seen stuff on tv. He'll be fine. It's not like they are going to be having sex right in front of us. lol, he's a goof ball.

I'm thinking of super glueing my lips together. Do you think that doing that for about 2-3 weeks will get me started back on not shoving things into my mouth? I thought about having my mouth wired shut. But I've heard that people loose teeth that way. Just a thought.

Have a good day.

Isn't that frustrating?! We do that every single time. "what do you want? I dunno, what do YOU want?" LOL

I mailed shirts to TX & NY today, as well as another box to LA to my grandsons. Keep watch for them, I hope they are at least somewhat in the ballpark for what you had in mind. Thank you SO much...let me know how much I owe you! I appreciate it SO much!

Let me know if it works...make sure you leave a little opening for a straw to fit through! I thought about having my mouth wired shut. But I've heard that people loose teeth that way. Just a thought.

Have a good day.

HI SUZANNE :scared2:

Angela-macy is so ready for school it is not even funny. She said she is bored. lol We went to meet the teacher night and macy thinks she is pretty. (she is) She is young with blonde hair and blue eyes like Macy. AND macy said that her new teacher has her favorite book...Stripes. So she is a good teacher in macys eyes! :mad:

Today is dh birthday! I wish we could find something special to do since Macy is not here. I know what HIS idea of special is..... Men....lol. They are so easy. (no Trey, I am not being sexist, just speaking the truth!)

Gotta love him. They are easy to shop for. All I need is a bow. LOL

Hi Judy, thanks for stopping by. I hope you come back and join us every now and then. How's retirement going? And Bob?

[Suziecat 379]

Hey Jenn, are you still taking the classes for EMT (I think) training?

[crzytchr 3]

Cold? Hmmm...I don't quite know what that is...Trying to think and test the limits of my brain. Nope, it's no use; don't know what that is.

I hope work gets better.

Lotsa wood ready to be unloaded at my house!! We got out there and had some truck trouble, stressed me out, but I AM married to a mechanic, and all was well!!! LOL

Was a beautiful day, we saw a herd of wild horses, and lots of wild turkeys. Found an arrow head, shared a picnic with my husband, who SERIOUSLY packed the food, and took all my likes and dislikes into consideration! I had all my favorite things!

We drove out to the forest, then changed clothes out there, because long pants and sleeves are needed for the actual cutting and loading, but it is

HOT! So we changed, then changed back before driving in...I have no idea why we have not done that before, it was so much better than driving home in dusty, sweaty clothes. It did feel a little odd, stripping off and changing in the middle of the outdoors---but kinda daring!!!

We have grandkids, so we ALWAYS have a container of baby wipes in our vehicles, so we used them to wash our faces, and it was such a relief, we enjoyed the drive home, with the windows down, no AC---just cuz it was evening, and felt incredible!

The forest service here, went in and thinned the forest, they are going to have a prescribed burn in this area, so they thinned the trees, they dropped hundreds of dead standing ponderosa pines. They are the TALL ones with limbs only on the upper 1/3. The trunks can be huge---but they are TALL and straight. Most were a bit bigger around than say a dinner plate, but there were some so big Rick and I could not reach around them even holding hands!!! HUGE trees! They left some standing, and they had big "W"s on them, they were designated wildlife trees. Ok I thought, but what about the fire???? LOL. go figure!!!

Jenn, I chose your shirt, because I liked it!!! I actually bought one like it in brown, but it has skull designs I am not so fond of on it....but they are on the back so I don't have to look at them!!! You came very close to not getting it!!! Hope you like it, it is a bit different, yet not pink and sequined!!!

Tracy I chose yours like I say thinking the swirls were less defined, it says STURGIS around the neckline, and I liked it a lot.....ummmmmm I have one like it too!!! LMAO!!!

Sorry girls, I just bought what I liked. LOL

Suzanne, Rick was originally unsure how to act around a friend of ours who come out years AFTER we knew her. Then I told him he acted fine around "XXX" and "XXXX", his response was "They're lesbians???" He lives in the dark sometimes!!! Then he relaxed and now one of his friends recently come out, and that threw him for a loop!!! But he handled it very well!! I was impressed!!!

Well I am off to check my mail, and relax my back hurts from today!!! See you tomorrow!

We had such a good time yesterday at the party. Her house is about 100 years old and it comes with about 3/4 of an acre. The trees were huge and there was so much shade. We took along our folding chairs and sat outside the whole time. There was a nice gentle breeze and it was just lovely. We got to meet all of her friends and they were great. They acted like the had known us for years. It was great.

I have noticed as I get older that I also get more mellow and tolerant. More accepting of things. Not that they don't shock me, I just handle it better. I think hubby is also getting that way too. He did great yesterday and made some new friends. Now it's off to California and on to our tattoed nephew. We haven't seen him in a really long time. A few years ago a couzin of mine said she found him on My Space, so I joined there and went and looked at his profile. Seriously, from his upper neck all the way down, he is tattoed. I know I will never have one bit I am intrigued by them. I'm looking forward to seeing him and checking out the tatts.

Today is a lazy day. Will probably spend most of it swimming. I'm gonna go take a walk here soon and get that over with before it gets to hot.

Tomorrow is pedicure day, I can't hardly wait. I haven't done any trimming thinking I would just wait. Now I know I really need one because when I walk I can feel them hitting.

It's count down time to our trip. The spare room is getting loaded with things that we will be taking out with us. I told my niece last night it is going to look like we are moving in with them, lol. I'm looking forward to this trip.

Have a great day and I will check in later.

[Suziecat 379]

Home from my walk. It's only 75 degrees but it is very, very humid and there is absolutely NO breeze out there. So I'm sweating like a pig and smell like one also. (sorry about that.)

[Suziecat 379]

Hi Jenn.

Cooked some sausage and fixed one egg to go with it. Good start so far. One step at a time.
