5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 4

[TiggerInNY]

Sandi - I have a solution to the bowling thing. Bowl in a league that's once a month. Like me. I love it. Actually, I'm the President of the league. There is NO SMOKING at our lanes. You have to go outside for that.

Stacey - I'm with you. I quit smoking...just call me a "grubber". I miss it. I'll usually grub smokes from my brothers cause they all smoke. I really enjoyed it but realize the implications that it brings with it. I want to be around to see my kids grow up and grandkids(did I just say that out loud?).

Still waiting for the tapers to come here. He said they would be here after lunch....it's now 1:50pm. THIS is the part I hate. WAITING around. I've surprised myself at how calm I've been. I only had 1 day last week where the stress level was really high. You could also blame it on PMS, too. Having the kitchen temporarily in the garage has helped tremendously.

OK...off to folding laundry. Talk to y'all later.

Why is it that every time you mention tapers, this is the image I get in my head...

Oh wait... that's a tapIr...

You say taper, I say tapir, tomato, toMAto, let's call the whole thing off.

oops, sorry, a bit early for Friday Karoke!

 

[TiggerInNY]

Kikipug - you're too funny. I can't imagine if I said "the rockers" what you would come up with?

 

[Dancind]

Stacey, you and Jared post with each other's IDs every time. Too funny.

Yes, it includes you.

Guess what, I'm working! It's been a good long while, but I've got something like 60 listings going right now on Ebay. Just gotta keep plugging...

 

[Dancind]

I did notice last year at my annual exam, most of the nurses in my HMO office had smokes, or were just coming in from a smoke break. What's up with that?

First the rockers slap rock on the lid, then walls. Tapers; flipping mud on the rock, then comes the orange peel texture

I have 4 contractors coming out to give me estimates on vinyl siding. Any comments, suggestions, recommendations? Right now I have wood siding that is starting to go downhill, sun, bees, woodpeckers, etc.

Vinyl siding only comes in certain, pre-determined lengths (usually 12'). The companies that sell the coated steel or aluminum siding have machines that mold the siding profile right on site and cut it to fit (corner to corner) without any vertical joints. Better looking and better sealing.

I think that ABC Seamless is in that area, check with them for more info.

Kevin, Thank you, I will call them in the am. This home fix-it-up stuff is not my favorite activity. Hey, when you are here in October.................



Just kidding!

Up for adoption....
one slightly too skinny male cat. Neutered. Declawed. Very friendly. Will ship.

FREE!!!

Animal shelter said they are full and that if I left him there they would immediately euthanize him.

Here he is...although the picture isn't so good....he wouldn't stay still, kept wanting to come over and get pet.

Just keep him yourself. What is wrong with that?

This is a test:

Which of the above are the geriatric rockers?????

 

[justmestace]

You guys are too funny. I go to the office for just a little bit and you all have fun without me. I'm getting a complex!

Actually, Ohminnie...yes...it was very clear! Speaking of clear as mud...the creek is finally running clear water. I think I've posted that before. It's just nice to see it look halfway pretty again.
Aren't there any No-Kill Shelters in your area? We have a ton of them now. Poor kitty. Someone has to be missing him......

Kevin, love the geriatric rockers...very clever.....I think it's the top picture!

Yea! Diana.....getting those postings up! The $$ will be rolling in when people see those new Hawaiian dresses. Oh, to be skinny again! (not that I ever was....)

 

[justmestace]

I do try really hard to be considerate when I smoke. Jay hates it...so I can't smoke in the house (which is fine with me).....have never smoked in a hotel room.....and I try to move far far away from people when I have one. Jay has all these "rules" that I try to follow. The gang at WDW found out one of them....I am not allowed to walk anywhere and smoke at the same time. Those guys made me walk at the Boardwalk with a cigarette. I finally put it out...I just couldn't break the "rule".

But guess what!! I just heard this on the radio this morning and am going to look into it....there's a clinic in Phoenix that I can go to, and get a shot (or shots) that are supposed to help me quit. I've tried everything else. I really would much rather NOT smoke.

 

[ohiominnie]

None in London. Have to go to Columbus for that. Will call around and see who can take him.

Jim, why can't I keep him? I just took in a cat. And this cat is becomming territorial with Dingle's food....Dingle who we've had for 7 years....no one picks on my little Dingle....

uh...Little, huh? Isn't 20 pounds "little?"

 

[Dancind]

I haven't heard anything about shots! Just one shot? Let me know about it, I'll tell my brother. He's been promising his kids that he'll quit for about 13 years now, since the oldest one figured out what he was doing.

You mean OLD Hawaiian dresses, right? New ones aren't worth as much! I have one that's getting a lot of interest, at least.

 

[Dancind]

Just did one of my favorite things, and called DVC for reservations. We are booked into Beach Club Villas for May 22 & 23. Then I'll call in October for the last three nights before the cruise at Vero Beach. We don't own points at Vero, so I have to wait until seven months out. Isn't that FUN?

Well...the dresses were new to you...

I was just reading the website about the clinic to quit smoking. They also do a program for behavior modification...and it's a few tiny shots, according to them. But you only get the shots once. It sounds like it might be okay. They do some medical testing first. I may have a problem, though and not qualify. But there's only one way to find out!!

This is the site for here.....don't know about your area:

www.quitsmokingphoenix.com

There is a list of locations on their home page...nothing in New Mexico yet.
