Chicks and Roosters...part 2

[Grumpy's Wife]

I'm not in the Disney funk. I'm anxiously awaiting my trip in May. Only 177 more days............and counting. I was there last February so it will be a year and three months when I get back. This will be our first trip going to the water parks because we usually go for Mardi Gras and it's too chilly out to enjoy them. Maybe it's because I have something new to look forward to.

Thanks again for the birthday wishes and Jeanny it's so nice of you to stop by. Come back and chat, we miss you.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Today's your day Grim. Happy Birthday to you!

So do you have big plans to celebrate over the weekend?

 

[Sthronds]

Happy Birthday Grim!

 

[grimley1968]

Very cute. And that guy looks just like me now. Thank you all. I don't think we're doing anything tonight, but we're having a little get-together this Saturday. I'm going to the Kentucky-Georgia game with some friends, then after that we're supposed to meet in a restaurant close to Commonwealth Stadium for a party, with maybe 8-10 people or so. That should be fun, but the real fun will be before the game at the tailgating, when we'll be there by about 10:30 AM for a 12:30 PM game.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

Morning everyone Hope you all have a great weekend!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Happy Friday.

Michelle you sure are either up early or going to bed very late. I hope the kids aren't sick.

Grim your birthday plans sound like lots of fun. I love going to football games. Have one for me while you're tailgating.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY GRIM!!

Enjoy your birthday weekend!

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Happy Birthday Grim!

I'm sorry but that is funny.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Good morning all! Have a great weekend!


Tricia, I hope your big party goes off well.
What time should we be there?

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Kickoff's at noon so how about 11-ish.

Kickoff's at noon so how about 11-ish.

Central time, right? I've never heard of an NFL game starting that early, but then I realized you're probably in the Central time zone.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Yep, we're Central here and our games are either 12:00 or 3:00.

 

[Sthronds]

Good Morning!

It's Friday! Enjoy the games. I've got to put Halloween decorations away and I might go ahead and get out Christmas. I hate to lug all those boxes in and out of my shed too many times!

Have a great weekend!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Good Morning.

Grim I hope you enjoyed your birthday weekend and had a win to top it off.

We had our party for the Saints game Sunday and of course they lost. The worst part was that I ate all day long. Things aren't going to be pretty on Wednesday for weigh in at Weight Watchers. Oh well, you need to live a little too.

Susan did the Christmas decorations come down yet?

I had a great birthday weekend. We did nothing on Friday night, but then I woke up early Saturday, and we went to the UK game. We were tailgating by about 10:45 AM. I wasn't driving, so I had started my tailgating slightly early. The game was a great one, and an offensive clinic, with a final score of 42-38. Unfortunately, Georgia beat Kentucky. UK had the ball at the Georgia 13 with about a minute left and 2 timeouts left. UK's freshman QB then threw a very ill-advised and weak lob pass toward an open receiver in the middle of the field, and a Georgia defender just reached up and snagged that little alley-oop with one hand and took a knee. Game over. Still, it was a fun and action-packed game, full of big plays. After the game we went to a little bar/grill in Lexington and had a little birthday dinner for me, where my family and 5 or 6 of my friends showed up. It was nice and relaxing. I actually made it to church yesterday, but I was so hungover and tired I just got in bed yesterday afternoon and watched TV the rest of the day.

I hope other people's weekends were good.

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning!

I had a busy weekend around the house. I got all the Christmas stuff out of my storage shed and then went through a few boxes, getting rid of some books and other stuff. It was fairly productive. I took Halloween down on Saturday and then yesterday I started putting out a few Christmas things but I'm not doing the tree or lights or anything.

I wasn't feeling very well last night, had a minor migraine and was in bed by 9:30. That's pretty early for me.

It sounds like you were all busy too!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Susan I hope you are feeling better today. I would love to start putting my Christmas things out but I'm trying to hold off until Thanksgiving. Now the day after it's fair game for me.

Joanne how the cold up North? Any snow yet?

Grim have you recovered from your birthday bash?

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Good morning all

Susan, I'm so happy to see you started with your Christmas decorations. We bought some new lawn items on Friday but DH is waiting a few weeks to put them out.

Susan, you've done so good on your diet losing 30 pounds you gotta enjoy yourself sometimes.

SSShhhh.... no snow yet. I don't like to see it until December. We don't get much anymore anyway. I remember when I was a kid we had tons of snow!

Grim, you really know how to enjoy your birthday!!! Sounds like the hangover was worth it!

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning. I'm heading to the dentist this morning. It's just for a cleaning.

Joanne, when do you usually have your first snow fall? We get excited about rain around here.

 

[grimley1968]

Good morning everyone. Yes, I've recovered from my birthday celebrations/libations. Now, I'm depressed I have to wait another decade at least before another one.

It sure has gotten colder here. We're actually expecting flurries possibly this weekend or early next week, although we normally don't get any "sticking" snowfalls until early December or so. We're long overdue for a blizzard-ish winter around here. I haven't seen snow more than 6 inches or so around year in a decade or so, and we used to normally get a couple of foot or higher snows every winter. Things were like this right before the winter of 1996, which was horrible around here. We had about 3 feet of snow on the ground at one point from multiple snow falls, and then the temps got down to around -30 a couple of mornings. It was a disaster for this area, which is normally fairly southern in its weather. Getting to work was like something out of a Little House on the Prairie episode. It made Pa cry. I'd like to see some snow, but not the extreme cold.
