Gnomies Gone Wild

[sunny_stace]

I am sure you are all tucked away, hopefully in Dreamland where visions of Disney go dancing in your heads.........okay, maybe everyone except CP who is undoubtedly having to corral the 4 12year olds staying at her house, but still........

I just wanted to thank everyone for the sweet Happy Anniversary wishes.....you are all so sweet!!!! We are HIGHLY enjoying our anniversary......last night's date was so much fun....seriously, if you haven't seen Hangover yet, you MUST GO SEE IT!!!! Just the type of movie that makes me laugh really hard! LOVED IT! Today, he took the day off work, and we got to sleep in since Megan decided she wanted to spend the night at my Mom's house. We then went out for breakfast, and then picked up our little Princess. We then went out the three of us to do the back-to-school shopping for her for the first time!!!! It was so much fun, but we seriously need to take out stock in Crayola......we needed two kinds of crayons, colored pencils, and markers!!! Her school box looks like an advertisement for them!!! We then got to all come home, take naps, and enjoy a leisurely afternoon. Tom had volunteered to help out a dear friend of ours tonight by bartending a celebration they were throwing for our friend's sister who was just declared in remission from her cancer.........don't worry, I know it is our Anniversary night, but Kevin (our friend) has done so much for us over the years and his sister has had to endure such a battle, that we were happy to be able to do something in return for him and his family. Kevin felt so badly when he found out it was our Anniversary, but I told him that I wanted Tom to do it so we could somehow give something back to him. He is really a great friend. So that is part of the reason Tom and I went out last night, and then we are also going out tomorrow night too!!!! The party continues on...........

Also on our agenda tomorrow is car shopping.....so wish us some luck.....I have NO idea what we are looking for!!!! I'll keep you posted!

Good luck again to all of you looking for jobs and homes!!!! Nighty-night gnomies!

Good luck with your car shopping and since I didn't say it before - HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! You're right, the Hangover is hilarious! Dirty, but very funny!I've wound up seeing it 3 times now!

 

[MegansMom]

I can't wait to see it again. I know we will wait to it comes out on DVD...can't wait to pause and rewind to hear all the jokes well over our laughter!!!

Good morning Gnomies. I'm working then going up to my parent's camp north of Wisconsin Dells, WI. See y'all Monday! And here's some pixie dust for ya Katie!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I want to get married again so I can do THIS.

 

[jenjolt]

LOL that was great!!! Thanks for the link LL!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Hi gnomies!

LL- I saw that video on TV last night. AWESOME. That's the way to do a wedding!!

Jen - hope you're enjoying Austin!

Jen (MM)- Thanks for the Hangover recommendation - I'll have to go see it. Have fun car shopping today. I've forgotten what kind of car are you looking for?

Speaking of cars, gnomies, I couldn't pick mine up yesterday - stupid dealership- so pics will have to wait til next week.

CP- how was the sleepover??

Julez- have fun on your trip. I was just reading about another DIS'ers trip to the Dells recently. I'd never heard of it!

Stacy - very promising they are checking references-- good for you!!

Katie - here's some MAJOR pixie dust for you. Hang in there. It will turn out ok!



Paula- I baked my sandals yesterday. They're pretty comfortable. What do you think?

How are you, Jess?

 

[sunny_stace]

I want to get married again so I can do THIS.

Oh LL that was fabulous!!! Great idea although I don't know if I would play Chris Brown....I'll have to keep that in mind for my Disney wedding! What Disney song would work best?!


By the way Ladies - I got the job!

Hope you all have a great weekend!

 

[ILuvCrush]

yay Stacy!!!

Congrats on the job!!



LL... That video waas too funny LOL!!

C... sorry you have to wait on the car... hope its just a 'normal' delay not something wierd. When i bought my Prius, i wanted a green one. The dealer had to bring it up from Pittsburgh. yeah, they WRECKED it!! So i ended up settling for a silver one instead

My Shake and bakes are breaking in pretty comfortably... although I keep sliding out the back when I walk a bit. I guess the top strap needs to stretchout more, but the foot bed is very comfy

katie...hope you hear something very good about the job situation soon

Jen... you are leaving before me!! Yes you should be working on your packing list


CP you haven't checked in I hope that doesn't mean all those preteen girls have you tied up in a closet or something


MM, Julez... hope u r well luv ya!



OK I feel pretty normal today! yay!! I felt pretty normal yesterday too Maybe my hokey Vitamin D deficiency isn't so hokey after all I'm giving it some more time and see how things go. Is it a fluke??? or is it starting to work??? time will tell I guess

I'm working 3-11 tonite and Sunday again... so have a happy one! it's time to get a shower and get ready for work already

Hi, Gnomies -- just checking in quickly to let you know I survived -- I last heard the girls at 3:15 this morning giggling away!

They had a good time and have all gone home. The house is all picked up, I am catching up on the DIS, and then I am off to take a nap. I am exhausted!

Stace -- congratulations about the job!

Christine -- hope you are having a wonderful Saturday!

Julez -- have fun in the Dells!

Paula -- hope work is relatively painless this weekend and you continue to feel better!

MM -- good luck car shopping! Charles and I are headed to the movies tomorrow -- I wanted to see The Ugly Truth but it got awful reviews so maybe we will go see The Hangover instead.

Congrats on the job Stace!

Oh ladies I am all over the place this week. On wednesday had to take Blake to the emergency room, he had really bad chest pains and the pain was so intense...ended up having a too much acid during the day or something. THEN, thursday I'm heading to work...an a Panera truck tries to run a red light and instead of just going, he stops and tries to back up to come back over the line, so I'm like ok, he's backing up. So, I back up and the line behind me gets longer. Then, he's still backing up....and backing up....and backing up...and I'm getting awfully close to hitting the car behind me so I start laying on the horn! He must have not heard me and keeps coming! I must have beeped my horn a good 15-20 times and he FINALLY stops, I was so scared I was going to get hit from in front and behind. Couldn't get a license plate number in time, should have stopped at the store and said something...but was too worked up.

Then today, after working in the lab for a while this morning, I go to the post office to mail some ebay things...I end up hitting something in the parking lot, not sure if it was a trailor hitch or what but I have 2 large cracks and some scraps in my bumper now and will probably end up having to get it replaced eventually. I called my dad to tell him right away so it would make me feel a little less guilty...my dad being the firefighter captain has always been a little intimidating so when I do something wrong or stupid, I just feel that much worse. That just ruined my entire day. Blake tried to get me out tonight. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Miss all you ladies! Hopefully I'll catch up here in a few days after I get some more stuff in the lab done this weekend!

 

[Lady Lallie]

Good Morning Gnomies!

Congrats on the job, Stace!

C, sorry about the car! Happy Birthday though! Your birthday was yesterday right? Or am I going crazy. I thought about you, I was too busy to hop back on the DIS to give you birthday wishes.

CP, I'm so glad you survived the sleepover!

P, Sounds like you have a lot of lists! Glad to hear you like the sandals. I'm really liking mine. I was surprised by the difference of how they felt after I baked them.

Jess, holy moly! You have just not been having an easy time of things lately.

Jen, Glad you are enjoying Austin!

Julez, hope you are having fun!

 

[kschafer]

Wow girls, I didn't realize I hadn't responded to anyone and it sure has been quiet in here the last couple days!

Stace, CONGRATS!!!!!!!

Jess, sorry about the stress lately. ER visits and accidents

C, I feel like a terrible gnomie for forgetting to say

​

I hope you celebrated!

We are just busy getting stuff done this weekend. Lots of laundry and picking up. This morning I need to get to the store and we have a birthday party this afternoon.

I noticed this morning that they have now extended free dining till the end of the year. I just went and priced out a birthday trip It will never happen but it sure is fun to dream. Hmm, maybe I should go check my lotto ticket


Have a great day everyone!

 

[ILuvCrush]
