MOOvers - 2011 Edition

[pumba]

just stay cool and happy and all will be okey....

I dont know if i could give up meat......I love a good steak once in a while....I love seafood too .....but a good steak is my weakness....I could give up the chicken though......unless it is a hot wing.....

Hope you feel better today and the nerves go away....

I was counting on getting my protein through seafood. Love shrip and fish.

I too love a good steak, but I could live without it.

My garden is good to go, now the waiting period until it starts to produce the pickins!

MommyP - Hope you have a great trip!

We are finally on vacation too. Heading south and hope to get to at least the half-way point tonight. Then we'll go the rest of the way tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing Mari!!!

 

[monymony3471]

Have a safe trip Cheryl!

Just realize my daughter is leaning over the table with no panites on. Oy the troubles of my 2 year old. I wonder why she doesn't have them on. I'm afraid to find out why. And she just gave me her bogger. Nice.

LOL, Mony!

Moo, have a great trip, I am probably too late...

MP, at first I thought that maybe you were pregnant again Hope you get well and nothing spreads. Are you leaving this weekend?

Things are totall crazy at work, but I think I'm done for tonight, getting ready to make some Mac & Cheese (out of the box, but the creamy kind, not Pumba homestyle) with a piece of Texas toast.

AI final is on TV, coffee is made for tomorrow, clothes are ready, so now just to cook and eat and veg.

Tomorrow is a boat trip at lunch with the new regional teamn (subway sandwiches paid out of pocket) and then teeth cleaning later in the afternoon. Had to cancel my day off Friday and working Memorial Day

OMG Marita, I thought the same thing and then said NAAAAAAAA to myself.......

Happy Journey's to you all....

Today is our 43rd anniversary....I can sit here and remember that morning like it was yesterday.....but the last 43 years have gone like a zippppppppppp........time sure flies like the saying goes....I still get butterflies in my stomach (no not pg) when I see him across the room at a party or when he comes home every day......I love to see him....yah I guess I am lucky because his mama did a good job of raising three boys all by herself.....three great men and I have one of them....

Today is a sunny day but it wont be HOT like the last two days...I thought it was going to be nice yesterday but it was HOT.......I mean HOT......then last night the winds came thru and they could of blown us off the porch.....

Oh well......everyone have a great day

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MARIE!!!!!!

Yes the years fly by. I bet you made a beautiful bride. Was it this kind of weather?

It is hot here again today. The guy on the radio said it hasn't been this warm since the 1940's.

Having a hard time finding shorts for Nicholas. The dept store people are no help either. They told me to buy XL or 1X and use the drawstring so they are longer. He has a 30 inch waist . The problem is they are too short for his liking. He wants to wear boardshorts but they go above his knee , even higher when he sits. The kid needs to stop growing.

We don't have a big and tall store here. They ones that do say they have big and tall mean BIG and tall.

Guess I will have to go again tonight with him this time. I feel sorry for him having to wear jeans in this weather.

 

[Backstage_Gal]

Hope the travellers are doing great.
Work is crazier by the day here, and meetins galore this week, no time to get actual work done. Working Monday too, but hopefully a short day actually in the office.
We had our boat outing today with subway sandwiches. It's getting HOT out there. It was bearable under the canopy or when the boat was moving, but otherwise it was very uncomfortable in the heat.

Tomortow is a long walk at Coronado to look at some operations. Comfortable shoes were suggested. I wore sandals today for the boat, only way to go, I learned, and will do the same tomorrow.

Should eat something but im only half hungry, dont really want to. What to do? Guess I'll have some more wine, LOL

Oh, DS asked about how to make stuffed peppers, so I sent him the recipe a couple of days ago. He called tonight asking what to add the onions to. The boiling peppers? I guess I left out the step about cooking the meat in a pan, LOL

 

[Minnie_Moo]

We made it down to North Carolina and had a nice dinner out with my Mari and her boyfriend. It tasted great after mostly eating in the car the last couple days! Heading down to Hilton Head in the morning. Yay for vacation!!!

Marita - Sorry you're having such a crazy time at work. Hope things settle down soon

Happy Anniversary, Marie!

From MommyP's FB posts, it sounds like she's having a nice time at WDW!

Nabbie - It's hot, hot, hot down here! Mari wants to try kayaking while we're at HH, so we're going to see if we can do that. Hope we have nice weather and can get to the BEACH

 

[monymony3471]

Happy Anniversary Marie! Congrats!

My brain fried about 45 minutes ago.

Long day of school and at the school working with those precious kids. My heart is a heavy one. It just isn't fair what some kids have to go through. Makes you wonder........


Hope you all get to enjoy the holiday weekend.

 

[monymony3471]

Nab, we are in the same boat with my 13 year old. He's 5'10" and 125 pounds. We just bought him new jeans size 27 or 28 waist and 32 in length.

Shorts, we haven't been able to find any he likes!


Moo: Glad you made it to HH safely. And I didn't see any posts by MP, what am I missing?

 

[pumba]

I remember a neighborhood boy that is very tall and he wore those bathing suits that come down to the knees.....they fit around the waist and in his legs.....Sears used to have tall sizes.???
Or maybe see if there is a store on line that you could order from.....

The sun is out and it is Friday...YES YES YES.......it will be nice to have a three day weekend......hubby will put the trash out on Monday and he makes the coffee each morning and one morning he makes a big breakfast.....YAH I could get used to this.....Like being in Disney only ...we dont have to walk to the food court........

Well have a good day everyone.....Have good vacations to those who are traveling still.....

 

[Minnie_Moo]

We are really liking the Hilton Head resort so far! Don and I rented bikes for our stay and rode them a bit. It's been a while but it was fun!!!

Hope to get to the pool or beach tomorrow. There is also a craft show nearby this weekend.

Nabbie - I have been seeing Chad's posts about the WDW trip on FB. Not sure if that's actually MommyP or Chad!

 

[pumba]

Morning my friends.

Well hubby made coffee this morning and omg, its enough to grow hair on ones chest.....maybe he put in an extra scoop.....but I wont say a word...cause I am a good stinking wife.......hahahaha

the sun is out and it is beautiful....have no idea what we are doing but it will be something for sure......even if it is sit in the back yard and veg, I can do that..

Hope you all have a great Memorial weekend and for my neighbors to the North...have a good weekend....

Another summer like day here. Good thing too Hannah is at Guide camp for the weekend. She was so excited getting on the bus last night.

The rest of the night was at Nicholas ball practice for his game on Sunday.

Tried to do some gardening out back this morning but it was so darn hot.

Pumba-- saw your thread on the CB. What a rotten thing to happen. Did you ever find out what happened to the flowers?

Moo-- sounds like your having a great holiday. Cool that you got to ride bikes. I haven't been on one in years.

Marita-- hope your not working at home the whole weekend. Saw you wrote the weather is wild there this afternoon stay dry.

Think we are off for dinner and a movie. Nicholas is getting his baseball picture done right now so when they get back we will head out. They will see Iron Man 2 , I will see Sex in the City 2 maybe..... Have to wait to see Shrek with Hannah.

 

[Backstage_Gal]

Nab, I'm not working at home the entire weekend, I have to actually go to the office on Monday, LOL (but hopefully just or a few hours).
The storm blew over in a short while.

Made some stuffed peppers this afternoon and took a nap. Hope you're enjoying SATC, I heard it got some horrible reviews today.

I discovered I have the Game show network here, who knew? So I watched a bit of Family Feud and Newlywed game this afternoon when there was nothing on TV. Going to attept to watch the repeat of the last Lost episode tonight, not that I watche the series, but read some interesting comments. My guess is I will get totally lost and switch channels after 15 minutes, LOL.

Hope Moo is having a good time, saw her make an appearance on FB.

Well, back to work!

 

[pumba]

I switched from that to criminal Minds..

Nab the coffee wasnt really that bad........just STRONG.......went to Walmart and got a Black and Decker coffee maker......the one we have now has to put in filters and I wanted the one with a built in filter.....I put that one in the cellar back in the box...

 

[Minnie_Moo]

Marita - We're having a great time here at the Hilton Head Resort! SO beautiful and relaxing. Mari and I are thinking that we're going to do the kayaking excursion tomorrow morning. We went swimming at the pool this morning, then to an art show at Shelter Cove Marina this afternoon (may go back and buy a couple things tomorrow), I made a cute travel pillow at the Community Hall this afternoon, hung out in the hammocks, then we went out to dinner at a seafood restaurant again tonight (yum), then played miniature golf and had ice cream at Coldstone Creamery. I think I'm going to have to be really good food-wise after vacation. Yikes!

Tomorrow we're probably going to grill some steaks for lunch, then maybe go to the ocean. We went to the Beach House a couple times to check it out but haven't actually been there for any length of time yet. We think we're going to just hang out here at the resort for our entire vacation instead of going into Savannah.

So much to do here . . .

good morning everyone..

For some reason I slept in......I mean almost quarter of nine.....I did watch the news last night for some reason....

Today is overcast but humid out....they said it would burn off and be sunny and hot....hope so...(speaking of that...hahaha....sun just shone in my living room) I did alot yesterday cleaning out stuff.....there was a show once to show how to get rid of stuff.
every day, take and throw fifteen things out.....and I did that....it does make a difference.....I also had a set of dishes we received 43 years ago (good set is in a different place) this is anchor hocking white sort of milk glassy look with a gold rim.....so I put the set in the dish washer and then will pack it away....I have my MIL's set of 14 plates and the rest of the stuff.....so I will use that only for the holidays ....that is over 60 years old...but it means alot to me to have her give it to me..She also gave me her chest and the set of silver..
We use corelle ware every day stuff....but now I have three different patterns.....do you see the things I do like......I also collect sugar and creamers....that is my most favorite thing to do.......we have a different sugar bowl out every week and then if we have company coming I get the creamer to match, or get another set out....I love it...

I have alot of antiques that I love and will not part with.....well someday I guess but not now...

so would like to go to the ocean today and sniff the air......and listen to the fog horns...good vegging day things to do
