: I'm so bad with phones and cameras. I wind up getting a new one about every 6 months because I BREAK EVERYTHING! Usually it's from being dropped though.

Holly - I am so bad with anything electronic - I break watches about 6 mos-1 yr after gettting them - they just stop working on me. In fact, the other week I was picking up all the watches I have in my "drawer" - they totaled 18! I constantly go through batteries like they were "smarties". DSIL says I have too much electricity in my body - seems I go through anything electronic - and this includes laptops, and cameras. In regards to cameras - I've had to resort to buying the accidental insurance from places like Best Buy ( I know! ) or Ritz/Wolf Camera but they work. I figure its better than having to shell out $100 - $300 every 6 months for a camera. And they cover everything - including being sprayed by a wave - don't ask - except for theft. They need the serial number of the cameras to turn in for replacement.

Here's a cute little tiny clip from 2 days before Tyler got sick. He's a bit excited at the end. Tyler's the one standing up.

How cute - my son (now 21) never misses an opportunity to tell me how much he missed out on doing stuff like this as a kid - I was afraid to put him in martial arts as he had the prerequisite tempers that red-heads are famous for. Thought he might injure his sisters. So consequently, I'm reminded most every time he feels like talking. Oh well, what's a mom to do - it never stops - if it wasn't this - it would be something else right? That's my version of - Mommy I hate you. I just tell him - just wait until you have your own.

Bought three bags tonight

I'm done all my Easter candy shopping already.

On sunday I wanted to go to subway but DH claimed he knew a better place to get subs. All I wanted was ham, spicy mustard and pickles. THe place he chose didn't have pickles and I was less than impresed. He then took me to work where we had just put out the eater candy and I was so excited I could get some robins eggs. I went in and we were out!!! I searched the back room and saw some in the middle of a pile. I started unpiling boxes when the guy I work with started laughing and helping me asking me what we were doing. I told him I wanted 2 things today pickle s and robins eggs. I didn't get pickels but I was getting robins eggs. I did too! (they are still laughing at me about this but I was determined to get my candy).

 

[nskjerven]

Yep, and it's not even 5:00 here yet! Diet Coke would be the drink right now.

Actually, I'm trying to get month end done and I can't get anything done because I am trying to deal with finalizing all the Girl Scout Cookie Orders (the financial part) because we just took in a pre-sale of 116,750 cases. That would be a whopping 1,401,000 boxes of wonderful Girl Scout Cookies. At a price of $3.50 per box, that means a total of $4,903,500 which will be deposited into our Girl Scout Cookie account beginning the first week of March and completed by March 31.

So, I'm gearing up for the craziness of dealing with 550+ troops!

You just had the foresight to know that I was already on a drinking binge!

oh no!!! Sounds like you are a unit/council leader! My hats off to you. I've got my hands full at the troop level, I don't know how those who go further in the ranks can deal with all the stuff(people and personality issues)

We just got our cookies today too. I finally pushed off some of the tasks this year to our moms so Paul didn't have to go and get them all. It was very strange being delivered to instead of delivering...

 

[HollyTyler]

OK....here's another one. Just click for a little dance. This is the first day Tyler got off the couch (I think) when he was sick last week. For some reason he just felt like doing a little dance and that wore him out, so he got back on the couch and lay down for a couple more hours. Ignore the mess lying all over in the background.

Now THAT'S a woman on a mission!

 

[nskjerven]

Funny thing I had no idea you guys were doing this. I have a limo coming too but it is just for us four

Change your plans and ride with us. It's a really cool Hummerzine.....we have room and it's a great price too!

 

[nskjerven]

Not all caught up yet, so don't know what responses you are getting. But you only need a cut off date if you are ordering or making stuff. (Assume that's why you are asking.) If it's something you are doing on your own, just pick your own cut off date.

I think the teams were looking at a date in March, but I could have drempt that. I'm having cruise dreams nearly every night now...some of your 'roles' are being played by celebrities, by the way.

,,, back to catch up

Spill, we want full dream detail....who is playing me?

 

[HollyTyler]

Change your plans and ride with us. It's a really cool Hummerzine.....we have room and it's a great price too!

But bring your own Smarties because Nan won't share!

 

[nskjerven]

Carol - many prayers....



guys, I want the bag!

V Stay off of eBay and away from my bag!!!

 

[nskjerven]

OK....the little monster is in bed, I have 2 rolls of Smarties downed so far, LET THE POSTING FRENZY BEGIN!

I call and raise you with 3 peices of Sees candy

 

[Tink rules]

Nan..that's not fair...

 

[Making_Memories]

Would you like to join us in the party Hummerzines?! Just PM me and the spots would be yours! I think there are still 6 spots left.

Thanks for the offer but I would be way too claustrophobic with all those people in there and two windows that roll down LOL. You would not want me. We took a stretch to see Hannah Montana and I had taken 20 people total and 18 in the limo and it was really crowded to me. Then again the girls were all excited and fogging up the windows.

 

[disneylover5]

Thanks Lisa, a Bethany Beach sunrise would put me in a beautiful and peaceful place.....but I didn't read it until 6:10pm.....I'm 20 pages behind.....long story.....dog stole my glasses for the second time and now I'm wearing contacts but need my reading glasses and can't find them. I'm slow going today.....but it was a beautiful sentiment.

It makes me want to spend a weekend there before cruise.....just to shake the winter blues away. Have you been there since the summer?

I closed the beach house up at Christmas time. I really miss it. I will open it back up in April or so.....

 

[HollyTyler]

Crummy pics from my phone, but that's what I get for forgetting my camera! Well, I didn't think there'd be anything I'd want to take pics of there. These are from when we went to the rodeo on Sunday:

First time on the mechanical bull:

Cowboy Tyler:

I just wish were clearer pics, but you get the general idea.
