Cranberry or Pineapple??

HaHa, Selena, thanks for the birthday song. I love your signatureS. We don't have any fairs close by here in Denver. We would have to drive about an hour and a half to go to another town so my girls have never been to a county fair. Sad, huh?

Selena - I LOVE your signature too!!!

I am doing this a day early ONLY because I won't be at work tomorrow to do it then:

How sweet Heidi. I just love my birthday greeting. Thanks! You are so talented at the computer.

Hey everyone. I started to do the cool glitter name too I got half done and I have to take a break. I have so much going on with the hurricane I can't think. And wow, good thing I'm not working because I have a thinking job. My boss told us earlier there is no way we can work right now and relax where we are and don't feel guilty. I sure hope I still can take my vacation. Anyway, maybe I will try to finish my glitter name later. Hope everyone is doing okay. I am going to work on posting the door signs I have made so far later.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Yay, I would love to see your door magnets, Marcie! Don't be too hard on yourself. Don't feel guilty. Take deep breaths. Relax. It is so important that you understand what you have been through and know that everything will work out.

I am at home and can see the Mickey ... How cool. I hate it when I am filtered at work. WOW the colors are even brighter here at home than at work. Oh I love my signature Heidi. I thought it was cool before but I am telling you it looks awesome from my computer.

Marcie please show us your magnets....

Sandy, I grew up in the country so we would go to fairs every year. They were always shortly after school started. I live in a larger town now but we still have a fair. I also grew up with cows as pets... My kids smell a cow pasture and about die from the smell.... I just have to shake my head and tell them they could not make it in the country!!

I can not wait to go to the fair. I will eat corn on the cob. Oh goodness they roast it while still in the shuck (sp) yummmy....then I will have to have a carmel apple. The ones that are all gooey.....not the hard ones. We will see the pigs race and the Tiger show. I like to watch the sheep herding. I love to look at all the exhibits. Go in and pick up some freebies. Oh I can't wait. I donot really care to ride the rides. That is a little scary to me. I do not trust them too well. Erik has asked his girlfriend. She is grounded, so I am not sure if she will be coming with us. Oh fairs are so much fun.

 

[ImMarcik]

Okay here are the magnets she sent me so far, she is still going to do a Thanksgiving one and I'm not sure what else.

to be continued below.

 

[ImMarcik]

I really like this one but she has to fix my name in the heart. She left off the e on Marcie. I can't wait to print them out when I ever get home.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Oh wow Marcie, absolutely wonderful magnets. Great creativity! My favorite is the one with M&M laying down on the beach with the ship in the background.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Mighty slow thread the last couple of days. Hope everyone is doing ok.

 

[ImMarcik]

Sandy, I think I missed your birthday. Was it yesterday? Happy Birthday to you!!!!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Awwww shucks, Marcie. Thanks!

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Good morning!!!

Marcie - I LOVE your magnets, they are soooo cute....very creative. Glad you got your sparkly signature.

Hello to all I am back, although I never left. Things have not been all that great here. Hubby decided to go to Nebraska for a while and help his parents farm (he hates it here and is having a hard time adjusting... although he is the type that just cannot be happy anywhere unfortunately) He will be gone for about a month or so and after that I have no idea... sad... real sad. Oh well, life for me must go on.
Marci, I HAVE been thinking alot about you and am glad you and your house is safe and am sorry about your in laws house but at least they are safe too.
Sandy...sorry I am late.... Happy Birthday!!!
Heidi.... I want those sparkle letters and will see if I have enough spunk in me to look into it!!! I have the sight posted.
Marci... the door magnets are out of this world!!!! LOVE them!!!!
Selena~ I miss you.... I am glad the wedding went nice with a fun reception. Can you send a pic of the skirt and the blouse? Anyway, I went and took my daughters and did the Cancer Walk this past weekend in St Petersburg. It was nice. We went with our Curves group. I weighed in this past week and found I have lost over 36 inches, over 29 pounds and over 19 body fat pounds!!!! I am sure with DH gone I will be losing more weight and it won't be as hard!!!
Anyway guys, now I have more time on the computer at least!!!! You will be hearing from me!!! Oh, I bought Disney shot glasses off of e-bay for all adults in my group for the cruise!!!! Thought of you guys!!! Love yas! Karen

Karen: Hang in there. If you don't want to put much effort into it try this for a little bit:

 

[dreamakermom]

Thanks Sandy! First smile I have had in days!!! Blue is my favorite color, too! I WILL hang in there, but I have been hanging my whole life and I am tired. I wish life could be easier and love could be real, like I thought it was. Oh well, can't condemn me for trying... huh?!! All will pass and work out one way or another I am sure. Once again, thanks for the support. Karen

I posted that, not my mom!!! I had to go back and check to make sure I was not posting under my mom's name!!!!

You can add that sparkly name I did for you in your signature if you want. All you have to do is "quote" me and it will pull up the code that you need to insert into your signature line from my quote!!!

 

[LuluLovesDisney]

Happy Birthday Sandy! Sorry I am late, too. Still hope you had a great one!

These sparkly names are so beautiful!

Well, since it's been slow, I'll give us some things to talk about. . .

I have never been to a fair like that. It sounds like so much fun! I'm so close to New York City, so that explains it- our kind don't get too close to cow pastures. lol.

Karen- I"m sorry about your tough times. I will definitely be sending you some positive thoughts/energy, prayers, etc. If there's anything else you need, let us know.

I am so aggravated. My father did me a favor and drove me on an errand and while he was slowly going around the lot, a little kid darted out *running* in front of him! My dad stopped. The mother of this kid (in skin tight hip hugger jeans, and a too small tube top and heels) starts cursing a blue streak at him at the top of her lungs. I was like "I'm sorry, you should be watching your child better. He could get hurt." She walks over to my window and says "Would you like to step out of the car and say that?" I told her that was immature and no I don't do that. Then her kid (like 5 or so) starts cursing, too. I simply said "Wonderful mother, wonderful child" and rolled up my window and she walked away cursing to herself as the kid flips us off and is still cursing. There are so many things I wish I would have said (like if you wouuld start a physical fight, what are you teaching your kid?), but truly none of them would have made a difference. I'm just frustrated and I hope venting here will get it off my mind. I know I need to forget about it, but sometimes stuff like that is hard to shake off.

I had a great day in school. Kids were pretty good (with very few exceptions) and my inclusion teacher (special ed teacher in a regular ed classroom, where I'm the teacher) taught the lesson today. She did a good job and it was nice to rest my voice and all.

I made my reservation for Palo, and for the ones for WDW- I'm eating at 'Ohana, Kona, Boma, Fulton's, RFC, Crystal Palace, Sci Fi and Spoodles.

On the cruise, bf and I will be enjoying the spa- we reserved the Rasul Bath, Ionithermie, and the Couples Massage. (Hope it's still included with the REAS! I have to call about that.) We also want to try the Chakra balancing capsules but it wasn't online. Anyone ever try these?

I was asked to work 2 nights a week at Curves! So Mondays and Thursdays I will be there! It's a little extra cash for my cruise the way I see it. I still teach the Diet Classes there and I lost 6 lbs last week! I'm so excited. I hope to lose 24 more lbs. by December 25. If anyone else would like a free Curves coupon, let me know- I've got about 6 here.

Well, I'm home all alone- I think I'm going to get into some pj pants, make a Lean Cuisine, pour myself a glass of wine (I've got half a bottle of red in the fridge) and watch a movie- maybe something Disney. What about you guys? Anyone care to join me?

I cannot believe that, that is horrible, and we wonder why kids are getting fowl mouths at such a young age.
