Cranberry or Pineapple??

[ImMarcik]

Karen - If there is anything you need to talk about I am here just like all of you have been here for me when I needed someone to talk to.

Lulu - Mother's like that are a pet peeve of mine too. All I can do about that is show better examples to my DD and go on. But aggh they make me mad.

I booked the rasul for us too. I can't wait, that should be great. I also want to try those capsules. Do you think they will really make you feel rested like you had a 2 hour nap? Wow could I use that. Yesterday, I booked the Stingray excursion on CC. When I told my DH he was so excited. He really wants to do this. We talked about rescheduling our vacation with the hurricane but I think we've decided what the heck we are still going.

My DH has bought a generator, thanks to FEMA, and it looks like we may go home tomorrow. I am not sure yet if I will have the internet. So if I disappear, I will be back once it's on. I will be so glad to get out of this hotel. It really has done bad things for my nerves. I thought I was doing okay but yesterday I really had a bad day and my DH told me that I really need to go home. I will be so busy maybe it will get me out of this funk. Our yard and house is a mess, and I still have so much to do to get ready for our trip.

Take care funky monkeys. Hopefully I will have the internet.

What about you guys? Anyone care to join me?

Can I join you? I need it after today and since tomorrow my boyfriend's mom is coming in from FL and staying with us for 8 days and I have NEVER met her. My BF and his sister warns me that she is grouchy, hard to please, and doesn't like anyone but her family.

Here's a glass!

Good luck tomorrow! Hopefully she will be in a better mood- hey maybe she needs the wine!

I am trying to do the sparkly sig but I keep getting a sparkly box, I'll be back after I figure out what I did wrong. . .

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Looks like you got the sparkly signature!!!!! I like the Halloween Mickey too!!!

 

[ImMarcik]

I haven't figured out how to do the Mickey Head or the pumpkin yet. I get a sparkly box.

I haven't figured out how to do the Mickey Head or the pumpkin yet. I get a sparkly box.

I don't know how to personalize it yet, but if you just want the pumpkin, you can save mine and then just find a site to host it and cut and paste the code into your signature.

Right click on the head/pumpkin you want
Save it to your hard rive as a .gif file
Go to www.imageshack.us
Click browse.
Select the item you just saved.
Click "host it!"
Cut and paste the entire first code into your signature at the DIS.

I'm still trying to figure out how to add a name to a Mickey head or pic though. I usually take a long time to learn stuff like this for some reason. LOL.

For all the Funky Monkey's out there: (Enjoy)

Since flu season is just around the corner I thought that I would pass this on.

Eat right!
Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.
Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C.
Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build our immune system.
Walk for at least an hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead
of the elevator, etc.
Wash your hands often.If you can't wash them, keep abottle of antibacterial stuff around.
Get lots of fresh air. open doors and windows whenever possible.
Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.
Get plenty of rest.

OR

Take the doctor's approach.
Think about it... When you go for a shot, what do they do first?

They Clean your arm with alcohol...
Why?
Because Alcohol KILLS GERMS.
So.......
I walk to the liquor store. (exercise)
I put lime in my Corona...(fruit)
Celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies)
Drink outdoors on the bar patio..(fresh air)
Tell jokes, laugh....(eliminate stress)
Then pass out. (rest)

The way I see it...

If you keep your alcohol levels up,
flu germs can't get you!

My grandmother always said,

"A shot in the glass is better than one in the butt!" (use word that rhymes with glass that is not Dis appropriate!!)

Live Well - Laugh Often - Love Much

Marcie - the only mickey head I can figure out to make sparkly is the plain, without names. Example:

 

[jiminyC_fan]

So much to respond to and no time to do it. I am just posting to tell everyone I am still alive. Will respond to everyone later.

BUT, hugs to Karen. Everything will work out in the end. Venting here with us is perfectly alright. We are here for each other. Just think, juice brought us all together.

Marcie, hang in there as well. Once you get home, maybe you will feel better. Hope you get the internet.

Hugs to all.

Oh and I can't remember whick one of you has the mickey pumpkin but I have seen him around and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

Will post more when I have time.

Heidi, I would love a plain mickey head with a rainbow name. PLEASE??? That poem is absolutely the funniest BUT it still doesn't get you out of getting a shot!! The part about Chris' mom not liking anyone but family made my mind up. I am NOT inviting her to dinner. I will just plan on you being here most of the week.

Lulu, that story of the mom kills me. What is wrong with her?? I was sooo worked up over a mom that lives a few doors away from me. She was yelling at the top of her lungs at her 3 or 4 year old, calling him a LIAR over and over and over. I have never been to any of the restaurants that you made reservations for except Spoodles. We loved it! I'll join you in a glass of wine anyday!! I gained weight over the Panama Canal cruise and haven't gotten rid of it yet so I have been avoiding "juices".

I was feeling bad about not addressing everyone so had to post again real quick.

Mom - I will come over tomorrow early (before Survivor) and let you pick out whatever you want!!!

Scharpino Recipe
Ingredients for two servings:

One large scoop lemon sorbet (still frozen hard, not soft)
0.5oz Absolut vodka
0.25oz Lemoncello (or just less than)
2oz Prosecco sparkling wine
Dash of egg white

Method:

Place all ingredients in a blender, adding the Prosecco at the end. Add the Prosecco in slowly, as not to make the sparkling wine fizz too much. Blend the ingredients together. Be sure to check the consistency. It must be smooth and creamy. Only add ice if necessary. Serve in a champagne flute immediately. Add a splash of Prosecco on top as a floater.

Should have known that JrsyBoy would find the thread about juices!!

You guys have never had anything so good as that lemon drink after your Palo's dinner. Oh my gosh, just salivating just thinking about it. I think it is a mixture of "stuff". Anyone know more about it?? Hey, who is the next one going on the cruise?? Maybe you could find out all about that lemon drink for us. PLEASE! Lulu, looking at the recipe again, maybe it IS the drink. Mmmmmm

You don't live near the Elvis Cinema or Fat City, do you? If you do, I might have been last night...
