Theresa_--I can see your "boo"--can you see mine?

I can see mine and Deb's, but I can't see your's - or Melody's. They show up as just a red X............ Oh, just noticed that Courtney's is a red X too......
 
At my computer at work I see a bunch of red X's too. But my laptop at home I can see everyone's bouncing pumpkin Mickey.
 

I sometimes see boo's and other times they are the little red "x" marks. I think it depends on who you used to upload the image. I always use imageshack.us and it turns out fine. If you did use imageshack and are still getting "x" in your signature, you might have to upload it again.

I want to thank Melody for the Boo but I can't fit it in my signature :guilty:
 
Afternoon all my friends and big ((hugs)) to all! Deb have a BLAST tonight at the concert!

The verdict is still out if I am going to make it Monday night. I SOOOO want to go. You will have to tell me how it was although I KNOW it is going to be awesome. Some extra pixie dust would be great that I can go cuz I SO want to. We have had these tix for over 6 months and I would be SO dissapointed if I missed it. I have missed so much this last week and I would hate to miss that.

Capri girl I am excited for you! Have a BLAST! I will be thinking of you and wishing I was there!

Mel I got your pumpkin and put it in my siggie but it won't show up so oh well. But thanks so much for the thought!! Very sweet of you!

The girls didn't do so hot in their tournament. They lost 2 out of 3 games. But hopefully they will do better in two weeks at their first real games.

The whole group just left for the bbq so I am home by myself again. Oh well more rest for me I guess. :)
 
Awwwww, I feel the love here. It's a hug fest! :cutie::laughing::cutie:
I heard that! What the heck is everyone on?? :rolleyes1 :smokin: :hippie: :rotfl:


By the way, I can see everyone's boos. :confused3 Courtneys, Theresas, etc. They are all showing up just fine.

Anyway, hope you are all having a nice Saturday! :goodvibes TTYL!
 
I can see everyone's bouncing boos too. :rotfl2: :lmao:

No, really I can. :thumbsup2


Kelly: Oh man, that would suck if you missed the concert. Here's lots of extra pixie dust for you so you can go and have a great time! :wizard::wizard::wizard::wizard:
 
I can't see Courtney's either.

Kelly take it easy. I just got back from my doctor who informed me that I am sicker than I think, that I had to go straight to bed and stay home for three days! Sheesh.

So I'm going to bed now.... I'll try to post my boo later... (it's so cute).
 
Hugs to those who need it.

Amen to that, and :grouphug: to all of you sweet ladies!

We are back from U of O. Apparently the person making our appointment misunderstood me and did not make us an appointment with an academic advisor, but had us meet with an admissions advisor who really wasn't able to address our specific questions and concerns about classes. But we did get some information and phone numbers of people who can answer our questions. We were able to find the house Bryan wanted to check out and it just happened that the students were arriving today so we were able to look around. He really wants to live there and they only have a few openings so he will be getting his application in as soon as it is available in about a month.

The important thing though is that I found my tie-dye shirt! Green and yellow (school colors) with a big Oregon Duck (Donald of course). Just the kind of thing I was looking for. :cheer2:

Carol, that's a drag about the mix up and the University. Oye.:headache: But excellent news about the tie dye tee!;) Yes, we had a hugfest earlier, you're not too late.:grouphug::dance3::grouphug:
 
HOwdy again ladies!

Well today was quite a day here.

Dave entered in a BBQ cook off. His first one ever! He loves to BBQ all kinds of stuff, and I love it, cuz it is one less thing for me to cook. :laughing:

2 years ago, we took a trip to Texas for business reasons and pleasure. One of the things he really wanted to do was find one of those roadside BBQs that serve up brisket. Well we found one, and was sold on it. We came home and the first thing he did was try to find a brisket. They are not a hot commodity in California. We have tri-tip, but finding brisket is not easy. Finally found some at Smart and Final, which is like a small warehouse wholesale store. He read up all the he could on it, and the rest is history! :laughing:

Anywhos, he entered his brisket that he has been perfecting, and he won first place for beef!! Woo hoo!! There were about 12 or so entrees in that catagory. So that was pretty cool. It was a fun event, but not something he'd want to do all the time. There were some guys there that had beef, chicken and pork all on the barbe! These are the ones that love to go to somewhere once month. Yikes.........that is quite a commitment.

Oh and I sewed up some aprons for us to wear. Really cute vintage style Route 66 logos all over it.

So that was my day. I'm tired and stickey!!! It was so hot here today, and to be around all of those big hot grills was torture! We were all melting.

I'm off to shower, (Isn't that nice of me), and to bed.

NIght....zzzzzzzzzzzzz

That is SO awesome! I love watching all those BBQ cooking competitions on Food Network--and now I sorta know someone like that! (Well, at least I know his wife!)

Did you have to take your own grill or did they provide them? did he do a dry rub or a sauce? Does he cook it well or is it pink in the middle?

Details--we need details.

But, it can wait till tomorrow--nighty night!
 
I forgot to tell Capri to have a blast in Disneyland. So here goes!!

Capri, have a wonderful time, and be safe too!!!! :goodvibes:cool1::banana::dance3::yay:: :cheer2: pirate: princess:



Cheryl, I will give a report tomorrow. Thanks for your interest. A hug for you.:hug:

Melody, that's cool! Congrats to your hubby and I want to see those Route 66 aprons!

Well girlies, I'm off to Disneyland later today (in 8 hours exactly!) with Diana and Tyrae. We are all very excited to hang out together and to be at Disneyland. Jill (4fosterkids) said that there were really low crowds today which is pretty surprising! We are leaving my place at 9am because we want to make the opening of DCA to ride Toy Story Mania! It's our favorite and we always try to beat each other's score.

I'm going to wear my new t-shirt tomorrow. I'll post pictures,too!

Good night!
 
Morning all!

Mel that is so cool! Congrats to your hubby! I agree with Cristabel I want to see your aprons. Those sound really cute!

Cristabel have fun today! Jealous!! ;)

I didn't have a very good night again last night so I was in bed REALLY early. Shane and the girls didn't get home till 9:30 and I never did get any dinner. I did my one little run yesterday because since they were at the tournament SOMEBODY had to go feed my mom's cats and it was getting later and later so I figured I better go do it. Plus no one seems to get the mail but me and since I've been sick it has been piling up. So I went to the post office and my stupid shrink is STILL billing me for a mistake from back in April. I have gone BACK and FORTH with those people and my ins company hundreds of times and the LAST time I got a bill about a month ago they ASSURED me it was done. I got all these notes from the ins company about what they paid and the ins has said every single time that they have paid every single bill IN FULL that has ever been sent to them. Yet these idiots STILL don't get it. I stopped going to him cuz I was sick and tired of it. I didn't want to get any MORE bogus bills. So now on Monday I am going to have to call and fight it out AGAIN with these morons! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I am just glad I kept detailed notes from the LAST conversation.

Plus I got a call on Sat from Lynn's old orthodontist saying she missed her apt. I was like WUH???? So I asked her Did you make an apt without telling me and she was like yeah and I was like what the h e double hockey sticks. She goes on to tell me that when she was working in my mom's office while we were gone that one of the gals in there was commenting on the fact that she hasn't been wearing her retainer and that she wanted her to do it and that "she" would pay for it and told Lynn to call and make an apt. I was LIVID to say the least. First of all that woman in our office has some damn nerve butting into MY business and doing that cuz if she would have even ASKED she would have known that I still HAD Lynn's old retainer that she LEFT at our house when she RAN AWAY!!!!!!!!!!! When she first got her braces off she hardly EVER wore it and for anyone who knows about braces you know that for the first year you are supposed to wear it pretty much 24/7 even when you eat or your teeth will move back. Well Lynn NEVER did even BEFORE she ran away. Then she runs away and leaves it and of course has been gone for 6 months without it. So as far as I am concerned damage already done. NOT that she ever wore it before anyway! This really ticks me off too cuz when she wanted braces I TOLD Shane that it would be a waste of money cuz she would NOT abide by the rules and she begged and pleaded and said she would. Well sure as heck once they were on her teeth she did EVERYTHING she wasn't supposed to. Chewed bubble gum, ate sticky candy, popcorn you name it. The words I Told You So are big around here! Then just like with the braces she did the SAME thing with the retainer. I told her who the heck did she think she was going behind our backs making an apt when WE are ultimately responsible for her since she is still a minor and since they still have US as the resonsible party on the forms. She was like well Renee was going to pay for it. I was like I don't GIVE a rip. First off she has NO business doing that and second off it is NOT Her problem NOR her responsibility and it is not like you would WEAR it anyway!

THEN after all that she admitted she went through a box that I had of her stuff that I had saved that had other stuff I DIDN'T want her going through like our court papers and stuff and she got her retainer out. So AGAIN she was doing devious crap. I was like WHO told you you could go through that box? Did you ever think to ASK ME!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. So it was a real fun time to say the least. But as mad as I was at Lynn for all of that I was even madder at that woman at work. The nerve of her to butt into my business. Geez! Plus we had a big falling out with that ortho anyway cuz they tried to overbill me and on and on and I told Shane once we paid off Lynn's bill I was NEVER going back. So now this makes US look like idiots too cuz she reopened THAT can of worms.

Anyway everyone else is still asleep and I am not sure if they are going to church or not. We already did our big sam's run on Friday but still need some stuff from Winco so Shane will probably do that this morning but otherwise I don't think much else going on today. At least I hopefully won't end up in the ER THIS Sunday LOL. I was there the last 2 in a row!

Hope everyone had a GREAT day yesterday and has an even better one today!

Talk later. :)
 
Happy Sunday Everyone.. may today be good to you and yours.

Melody... i showed Bob your post.. he was like.. that's Awesome! How kewl is that to say.. i'm gonna learn how to do this.. then not only self teach, and WIN! Just the best story:thumbsup2

Yeahhhhh a post from WendyLouWho!:hug:

I can't wait to hear how DebbieLouWho's concert night was!

Linda.. i'm so looking forward to seeing you, it will be fun just to get to spend some time without things to do.

Stacerita.. i hope your back feels better.. i really miss your posts.. they brought such humor and positive energy to the thread.

Karly.. that's so kewl you found a tie dye shirt that has special meaning for you!

Donna.... you are sicker? oh no... i hope you are not developing chronic bronchitis or walking pneumonia.. gosh... please take good care of you. i hope the fires are not adding to your breathing quality... try not to go out if the air is bad. :guilty:

Cristabel.. have a fun time! Thanks for stepping up to the plate on the October thread.

Courtney... i can't wait for the halloween exchange.. can you? i've been working on it and so has my mom!

I hope Capri is having a great time.

Has anyone heard from katie and matt's mom? she was having surgery.. i hope she's healing alright, she seems like such a nice lady.

Steph... i wish i lived close to you..i would cook some food for you while you're healing. we will keep you in our prayers when you have your surgery.

Amysue... how are you healing? you better be resting some!

Kelly...you must relax.. and delegate some of the stress to your husband.. stress creates bad things in the body and can delay healing. make peace a priority.

Theresa...What kinda things is Jessie into? I'm working on a little party favor bag for him for my mom's party. I don't think he would like the others which are girlie girlie!

Yesterday we had a bbq.. just burgers and hot dogs.. but as i was pouring the drinks.. i looked around and saw 4 generations of my family... and thought.. wow.. i'm so blessed. i am wealthy with love in my life and with people to love.
 
CheryL... i can't wait til we get to see each other again.. i remember on the trip to vegas when we realized we were not going to get to see each other much.. we had this moment of clarity and i realized what we had a strong friendship base.. we said.. we will have other times. And now we are! WoW WOW.. a week to visit.. i am so looking forward to just visiting and going to have yummy food and playing with bella..and watching big fish! hope you like it after all i've said about it...:rotfl:

Good thoughts for Jen with her move preparations! We are still on 2011:thumbsup2
