Bernies Angels, our new summer home

[Breezy_Carol]

Good morning Gail.

 

[paras4ri]

Our friends Lars and Yepod have a meet today!!!

 

[helenabear]

Good morning all!! Gina, sounds like a great way to spend the summer

Yep, our friends are heading to the meet today... wish I could have made this one, but I had plans I couldn't back down on tonight. I admit though I am very nervous to go to this party. I will know a couple of her friends I have previously met while dress shopping but otherwise I don't think I'll know a soul... I don't do well meeting new people.

Good morning all !

FINALLY ... a beautiful weather weekend !

E, I hear you on your party fears. I'm going to a picnic tonight where I'll know the host,one other guest and my friend I'm taking along with me ...... so I'm right there w/ you tonight ! But I'm planning on having fun ! The host lives across from some fairgrounds where they are having a balloon festival this weekend ... liftoff is scheduled for 6pm tonight ! Hope the weather/wind conditions stay favorable for this to happen !

Hope Lars and Yepod have fun at the MI meet .... we want a review when you get back

EXCHANGE UPDATE

The way I figure it, only 2 people are still waiting for their boxes, Boo's Mom and Baboo .

Let me know is this is NOT correct. I am sending BBoBKB out to visit the offending senders.

 

[Boo'sMom]

Good Morning Angels.


Strawberries are all picked, washed, and waiting for some creative way of being served.....seems a waste to whip them up in a blender with some tequilla....hmmm...no it doesnt......


Hope the daring duo has a great time at the meet...and they remember to call me!!!!

What's your favorite strawberry recipe??? Ours is to dip them in sour cream, then brown sugar...yum yum

Gotta go turn the sprinkler off....or on....or off....gee.....I forget!
Have a great day everyone!

I think that's correct.....it's kinda like Christmas...we always try to be the last one to have a present to open....makes it last a little longer.

Woohoo.....

Just wanted to share a story before I go and put my sprinkler ON!!

We had this last week off and have one more week in August when we're going to Baltimore & Hershey (but not RiddleCon ) We were coming back from grocery shopping this morning when Lew said he had a vacation question for me, which I figured would be about August.

He wanted to talk about when we're going to leave for Disney next year!!!! I think I have him in the right mind-set already!

 

[mickeyfan1]

Gail, you've trained him well!!!!

Update on the "why do you want to marry my daughter dinner". First, the pants were way too long, did he try them on when he picked them up? Noooooooo. So he switched to another pair he brought, but said they were too big, even tho he said they were fine the night before. So then he didn't need the new jacket or tie, it was just informal. So they take him across the street to the company HQ, he says its very messy, but they think its great. After one hour there, the president, whom he says is less than 40 and had his shirt open to his waist and jeans on, has to go to another dinner engagement. Pete and Rick go to some italian place near by. Pete said they were not in the least interested in his qualifications or work history, it was just wierd. They are going to make the decision by tomorrrow. One more "interview" today. He is on his way home even as I type. I don't know, the money is no better than what he makes today and the cost of living in that area is really bad, I don't know what he will do if they make an offer. My husband, Mr Indesisive.

Lots to do today, Hilo Hatties for Hawaiian sun tan lotion, grocery shopping, etc.

See you ladies and gent later.

 

[Breezy_Carol]

Marsha, don't you just hate the not knowing what is going to happen? Good luck in the decision making.

 

[helenabear]

Marsha, thanks on the update. That has to be tough. Wishing him all the best as he finished his interviews. I hope that if it is the best move for you both that it will work out for you both.

 

[mickeyfan1]

Lars, Yepod, Juli, and Katholyn!!!! John called me, (ooops, I forgot, I was at the mall). They are having a blast.

Carol and Elaine, I am a firm believer that things always work out the way they are supposed to. No matter what. Too bad I am married to the man who is so stressed about everything. I know that when I pick him up at the airport in a couple of hours he will have made his decision as to what he will do IF he gets an offer, then he will tell me and change his mind a zillion times. I am very used to it!

Went to the outlet mall and shopped in Hilo Hatties (www.hilohatties.com) for a few minutes. They have the best sun tan lotion/oil. It has Kona Coffee oil in it and it smells really good. And they were having a sale, so my 13 dollar bottle of oil cost $96.00! One pair of capris, a matching shirt, a t shirt, a bag of dry roasted salted macadamia nuts and a kukui nut wrist lei......... Well, off to the grocery store.

Afternoon Angels!

Marsha - hope he makes a decision soon w/o keeping you in limbo. Do you have a cabana boy to rub that lotion on you?

Elaine - I'm not good w/ meeting new people either. My DH is much better than I am.

Gaspode - have you left for Disney yet? If not, have a blast!

We picked up our van today, and the kids love it! I thought they would seperate themselves in the back and middle, but they both ended up sitting in the back. Glad we have that extra room.
Sure seems like a good day to get the sprinkler out!!!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

hi again

 

[love the magic]

86 Wonderful Degrees here on Long Island! DEFINITELY a good day for a sprinkler run Lorraine!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend thus far! I am hoping that the "predicted" rain holds off until after tomorrow evening....my niece is graduating HS tomorrow and if it's sunny I can go to the ceremony.....if it rains she gets only 4 tickets (that would be her Mom, Dad and 2 sisters)...I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed and hope that the weather folks continue their "streak" of "Miss Predicting" (I just thought I'd refer to them with an ANGEL name) the forcast for tomorrow!

Be well all!

Valerie

Good afternoon Angels. It is a beautiful day here.

We are still waiting for a phone call to see if DD has to go back to camp tomorrow. They are very disorganized this year. This is her last of 9 years attending this camp and it is unfortunate that it has to end on a bad note.

DS should be getting home in about 2 hours. Can't wait to hear his stories.

Maybe I'll see you this evening but DS will be making up for lost computer time.

Hope to see some pictures from the meet.

 

[Boo'sMom]

 

[Breezy_Carol]

Well, we got the call at 7 PM. They would like DD to come back to camp tomorrow at 10:45 AM for the next week. She is out and won't be home until 9:30. I think she should go but what short notice. Luckily all the laundry is done. (See, all that laundry switching paid off.) She needs to make her own decision. What a mess.

DS is home and had a great week. Wants to go next year. The youth group is going camping again in 2 weeks and he would like to go but we will be on vacation.

Now I can go do his laundry.

 

[Gaspode]

Hiya All

Well, this is my last post before we leave. It's 1.25am here and I really should force myself to sleep!

Steph and Carol were on AIM a few mins ago so that was nice to chat, but they certainly reminded me of how I need to get some sleep LOL....

DBF is pretty much AOK now. His back hurts a little if he bends funny, so I've been carting the cases round etc! Thanks for all your concern

Right, well, I guess I'll be off... take care everyone, thanks once again for your brilliant welcome to the DIS - I've *no* idea how long until our next trip after this so am off to make the most of it and I'll be sure to post on the DIS daily again as soon as I'm home - I'll miss you!!!

Byeeeeeee
