Chicks and Roosters...part 2

[Sthronds]

Dan is my favorite player right now. In the beginning I loved Jerry and really disliked Renny. The tables have turned because I'm really liking Renny and Jerry not so much anymore. I'm so happy that Libra was the one to go. She really got on my nerves. I sound like I really know these people.

I completely agree with you! I didn't like Renny at all and now I love her. I loved Jerry and now don't like him at all. It will be interesting to see who Renny nominates.

In other news. . . We had huge thunderstorms and rain this morning! It was crazy and so unusual for our area.

Happy Monday Morning.

Here's a little story for you.............last night I was reading my book and as I'm sitting there the tears just start rolling down my face. I don't like books that don't have a happy ending. The main character died! I've been reading an Author named Luanne Rice. I tend to find an Author I like and read all their books then move on to another Author. I've read several of her books and they have all been great. When I have time to read I want to be in a fairytale, all happiness and the boy always gets the girl in the end. I had puffy eyes for a good hour after I finished the book. Today I'm going back to the library to check out another book. I'm wondering if I should read the last page first?

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning!

Oh Tricia, I hate when the expectations for a happy ending aren't met! I've been known to cry over books. I think I have one of her books, but I haven't read it yet. I think I have over 30 books in my book case waiting to be read! I do read them. . . and then go get new ones! Good luck finding a book with a happy ending!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Good morning ladies.

I went to the Library and I was pleasantly surprised that they had a new book there by Danielle Steel. She's my favorite Author and I've never been disappointed with the ending of any of her books.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Good morning all!

The trip was great. We got lucky with the weather. It wasn't over 90 degrees
and comfortable humidity. We gone previous summers and it was sooo hot and sticky.

How's everyone doing?

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning!

Welcome back Joanne! I was just thinking about you yesterday and how you should be home. I'm glad the weather was decent.

I haven't read Danielle Steele in a long time. I don't know why I stopped, I used to read all her books.

 

[fabumouse]

I have friends in Orlando now.. I bet the weather is pretty vile.

Funny about that book killing off the main character it's always such a shock, like they can't do that!

I cried quite a bit over The Time Traveler's Wife but highly recommend it.

Madeleine is doing well in her potty training, but I really wish this were an overnight process, without the messier parts.

I'm reading that right now. You mean I'm going to cry? I'm just trying to get it all straight in my head, but I'm really enjoying it.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Good morning ladies.

Joanne you're back! So did anything interesting or out of the ordinary happen on this trip? Were you picked to spend the night in the castle?

FAB good luck with the potty training. It's never a fun job just one that has to be done.

OK Susan get the Kleenex ready and don't read that book before you plan on going out.

I missed Big Brother again last night. I had a meeting to go to with Kelsie. Oh the joy of the computer because I love the fact that I can watch it online. It makes my life so much easier.

 

[MUFFYCAT]

Good morning all

No, we didn't get picked by the dream team for anything.
I'm not a reader, I know that's bad but I always skim through the last chapter.

I missed alot of Big brother lately. I did catch some of last night's episode.
I'm missing the part of Jerry, why isn't he nice anymore?

Fab, best of luck with potty training!!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Joanne I think part of why Susan and I don't like Jerry all that much anymore is because we really like Dan. Jerry has really been hard on Dan because he voted Jesse out. It was the vote that America's Player got not Dan himself but the house doesn't know that. Jerry thinks Dan "played" them or switched sides because he was the "swing" vote. I think Jerry is forgetting on week one when he was the HOH that he backdoored Brian. Anyway you'll see once you catch up that Jerry is well sort of full of himself.

I gotcha ya. Thanks for the clarification. I was missing that when I watched it last night.
I like Dan too. he's seems like such a nice guy.

 

[Sthronds]

Good morning!

Regarding Big Brother: What Tricia said. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. I think I have a little crush on Dan actually.

There isn't much going on in this part of the world. I'm really, really, really ready for the Olympics to be over, even though I love them. I'm staying up way too late.

 

[fabumouse]

LOL on the potty training - apparently, I'm a commando potty trainer.

Pants off! Potty Video on the TV! Potty is over there! You get M&M's if you don't pee on yourself! Double M&M's plus stickers if you don't pee on my bed!!



Susan - did you see that they are making a video out of our lust vampire? Like is that even possible? How does one make a teenage boy "radiant" outside of a book??

 

[Sthronds]

Happy Thursday!

Approaching the end of another work week. It's awful to live for weekends. I'm also ready for the Olympics to be done. I'm just exhausted from staying up to watch. As much as I look forward to them, I'm glad they are almost over.

Fab, the movie will be out on Nov. 21! Have you seen any of the previews and clips? It should be good. I'm not sure how they are going to make Edward sparkle but I hope it's not terribly cheesy.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Susan I stayed up watching the ladies win the gold in Volleyball last night. I was just going to bed at 10:00 when they announced team USA was playing for Gold..........Live. Of course I had to stay up and watch. What great athletics they both are.

 

[fabumouse]

Susan.. no, I haven't seen any clips.. and that is my biggest fear, that they will make any of it cheesy.

Like when he runs with her on his back...

Or the fighting....

or the intense love!

Hope it had a great director.

 

[Sthronds]

Tricia, that was an amazing beach volleyball game! I stayed up too.

Fab, I'm going to send you a link tonight when I get home. I don't have it handy at work.

 

[Sthronds]

I'm "quick replying" to myself. Interesting

Yeah! It's Friday! My parents are having a BIG anniversary party next Saturday night so I'm guessing this weekend will be spent working on things for that. I also might go see a tribute to Ray Charles that is being performed locally. It just depends on getting tickets. Hopefully I'll get to Target. I don't need anything, I just need a Target fix every now and then.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Good morning ladies.

Susan I totally understand the "Target fix". It's amazing how many items can go into the basket when you really don't need anything at all.

Did you get shoes to go with your dress for the big party next weekend?
