MOOvin' Along - Goog Times, Goog Friends . . . Part 2

[celerystalker]

marita - I'm so proud of you for getting up so early! wow!

pics of kids - since no one knows their last name (except Donald and he better not tell!), it's fine to post pics of them. I think it'd be hard for an internet stalker to find them since they don't live with us. And they don't live in the same part of town or even the same county as me and Tammy.
Feel free to stalk me and tammy.
we could use the excitement.
ha!

lex - great pictures! I especially love the BTMR one! too cute! I also forgot I met Lynda until I saw your picture. I really should've taken notes to do my report. hopefully it will all come back to me.

wendy - when is hubby gonna get us all photoshopped up?
ha.

cheryl - great pictures!
I wonder who the old guy is in the group shot?
a stalker, most likely!

and why can't tammy ever smile? I swear people thinks she's grumpy. but she's not!

sandy - I see now why your hubby likes you to turn sideways and lean forward for pictures. ha.
lil g will get what I'm saying. where IS he, anyway?

mommyp - good news about chad's job!

moo again - any news on the puppy front?

pumba - can you come do my laundry? we have no clean towels!

twinkie - ha about nab - Tammy couldn't believe her real age. she kept guessing and guessing.

nab - your parenting is fine! I think he's just reaching that tween age. he wants to be independent, but he's still a kid. both of your kids are precious!

utah - you don't look fat! it's just that you need glasses!

 

[TwinkieMama]

Goog morning, Sunshines!

Rise and shine, the early bird gets the worm!

who is this pod person? and where is our real friend?????

Lexi-- loved the mini trip report and pictures. She wouldn't let me take a picture of her with no makeup but she doesn't need it I tell you.....she is beautiful and tiny like Twinkie.( well Twinkie used to be small )

true dat! the used to be small part anyways... and I am sure Lexi is BEAU-TI- MOUSE based on the pictures (both recent and baby) that I have seen

Twinkie-- you are so kind. All I could think of in each picture is my hair is terrible. The humidity did a number on it. Plus I am not in my thirties I am 44 but thanks for saying that.

Ri-ight. A likely story. She is also taller than she says. Or I am shorter.

That Tea looked fun! Didn't get to do that this time. But I did see DeVine, finally! Everything on my Must Do list was accomplished.

Yikes, It's 43 degrees right now...Brrrrrrr!

Except, of course, meet Twinkie. Right? that is on your Must Do list? humor me here.

Also send the weather this way. It is actually beautiful- lows in the 60s, highs in the 70s but I am having some sort of hormone surge and I am hot! It must be Grasshopper because normally I am cold natured. Also someone (no names mentioned) has lodged their feet into my lungs. It is hard to get a deep breath and a dePp breath would surely cause me to pass out.

Feel free to stalk me and tammy.
we could use the excitement.
ha!

You crack me up. Be carefu what you wish for. I have family that lives the same un-named but oh-so-famous location. Not the fake location you use for internet purposes but your actual crib. Bwahahahahahahaha!

 

[celerystalker]

I could use some dePp breaths too.
I can't catch my breath too well. it's weird.
and cuz of the heart murmur thing, every little thing is making me paranoid.
so everytime I feel weird, I just drink more water.
watch me be one of those people that overdoses on water now.
they scheduled the echocardiogram yesterday, but didn't tell me - they just sent me a letter, which I didn't open until after the appointment yesterday.
so now it's rescheduled for the 17th.
oh well.

for twinkletoed stalkers: we live in the yucky apartments behind the kroger on that one road.
you know, that one?
ha.
I should give out the address of my house that I don't live in.
it's a half mile past that one kroger.
really pretty split level ranch.
that I don't live in anymore. dagnabit.
I wonder if I have a pic of it?
hmm.

That's the area between the living room and the dining room.

that's the kitchen.
and obie.
I miss obie so much.
I've been having dreams about him lately.

so if y'all go stalk him, tell him I miss him and I love him.

I hope tammy doesn't read this.
cuz I have a confession.

I've been missing Chris a lot lately.

he's the evil ex roommate. that has my house.

 

[pumba]

Will I ever do my laundry........I did put in a load of whites and washed those......I think they may of stopped while my sister came and we went to see mama.....Its good to go and visit....she is so out of the program lately.....she thought that she needed to mail her chapstick to AARP to get a pedometer that they are offering if you register again....I told her ......mama that is your chapstick for your lips.....she has some mega bruises on her arms and legs .....she had them when she was at home too so I know this is just her not having skin......she has that thin thin skin now......
Some older gentlemen (who is 97) said I had nice legs.......he kept on looking at them and I had to go on the other side of mama so he would not look at them....he was cute and it did make him laugh and I guess us too......I will remind hubby that I have cute legs too...

Pretty good pic of me and tammy - not so good of Jeanie

pretty good of nicholas, me, tammy and hannah - but you can't see jeanie!

I should photoshop all three together to make one good pic.

now, the piece d'resistance!!!

what does the halloween party do to a two year old?

 

[NAB]

Pumba-- I used to volunteer at the hospital when I was a teenager, I remember old men like that. I prefered to help out with the older ladies. Beside if you were not quick you got grabbed. They might not be able to walk fast but nothing wrong with there arms and hands.

Celery-- I knew you right off too by your pictures. And it was so much fun hanging out with the two of you. Cute doggie pictures. Is the last one a sheep dog?

Yes Nicholas really wants his independence, when isn't he a kid anymore....did they teach you that in your classes? Funny part is he went to where I told him we were going next and he stayed there and I stayed were he was last. That won't happen again. That was the longest hour of my life. Thanks again Moo!!!!

UMA-- Nicholas asked all week when we were see you again because he has a great time with your boys on Sunday.

 

[pumba]

those are the best photos ever......and I SEE TAMMY smiling .....and a very nice smile too......you should print that photo of the little princess with chocolate on her mouth......it is precious.....

My mama is in a nursing home now.....she has been there since April.....she was able to stay home until she was almost 93.....so she did pretty darn good.....The dirty ol' man is 97 and you wouldnt know it.......he has that sparkle in his eye still........I will wear long pants the next time I go to see mama......we are splitting up the visiting with her........some days alice and I go.....then my brother goes on another day and then my bil goes every day......and hubby and I go at night time.........this way we are always aware of what is going on those two shifts.......except that two am shift that mama was dusting and had to call me......she hasnt called since then.....

I didnt know I was a comedian......? YA think really......wow....

Talked with granddaughter on IM today...she was between classes .....she had to go and milk the cows in the farm part of the university......she said it was VERY INTERESTING......it is part of the pre vet program there..Animal Science lab ......she comes home tomorrow and is off until wednesday AM.....its called fall break.....she loves it so far....she will work on Saturday and monday at the vets office.......

see ya later gators

 

[UtahMama]

Celery- That last picture of Jeanie is freaking adorable! Not the caramel or butterscotchish filling all over her little mouth and the Cinderella on her costume, but that she's flipping the birdie in her sleep! That's one cute girl!!!!

Also- thank you ever so much for the cute sticker books for my kids! They loved them and were kept busy on the flight home quite nicely!!!! It was just awesome to meet you and Tammy!

Twinks- I love that "someone" has his/her little feet in your lungs.... And, you are one of 2 unmet imaginary BFF's I would have loved to spend time with! No humo(u)ring necessary. It would have been soooooo fun! You would have come in handy since you can 't ride fast/jarring rides to stick with a sleeping stroller-bound princess as I ride....


Nab!!!! My boys really dug Nicholas!!!! It was so cute how they were buddies after such a short time! Did Hanna(h) ever recover from Dinosaur???? (flame, flame, flame)

And- Thank you soooo much for the Canadian M&M's (Smartees) and the moose and the Key to Canadia. I wore it the rest of the week!


Moo!!!!!! Thank you too for the cool Michigan oven mit! I'll think of you every time I pull something hot from the oven. YOU are one wonderful lady!! Although you are a crazy driver, I must say...

 

[NAB]

UMA -- lets just say she was less trusting when it came to riding other rides. But she did try other ones that were new too her, like Buzz at MK and the Star Wars one at MGM.

Besides it is all Celery's fault she doesn't know how to drive.... You will have to post the picture.

 

[celerystalker]

utah - Of COURSE you would notice the bird! I didn't even see it! I was too grossed out by all the chocolate and peanut butter. but not when it happened, just in the pic.

pumba - glad your GD is enjoying college. sometimes I wish I could go back in time and do it right -
actually stay in school instead of dropping out.
and then being 31 and working on my bachelors.

nab - yes, Obie is an old english sheepdog and the sweetest thing ever.
next to riley and little amber.

 

[NAB]

A few photo's of the front of MK...They had different scarecrows this is Nicholas's favourite.

Tammy is sitting in Jeanie's stroller waiting for the parade....

 

[babynurse1]

I love all the pictures. Esp the one of Jeanie in the stroller.

HEY! Somebody forgot to send me motivation. I've only done one load of laundry, but I'm heading to the bank, post office, and all those other boring errands now.

 

[NAB]

I did all my errands this morning...including food shop. Stores are crazy because everyone is looking for turkeys and stuff for the weekend. I don't have to cook Thanksgiving dinner but I will help serve and clean up.

I found a place to take of off the ink tag. It was no easy feat. Most stores have magnetic ones now, not ink. I went into every high end store I could find this morning. Found what I was looking for a J.Michael's. A store that has nothing I could fit but were very helpful.

Now hubby can wear his Mickey polo shirt and the kids can wear there Disney stuff too when we go to my Mom's for Thanksgiving this weekend. And I can show all my pictures of you guys too. I am sure my mom will be glad I wasn't killed or something meeting strangers from the internet. I sure my family thought I was crazy but didn't say anything to me....

 

[Lil' Grumpy]

..you an't going to rid of me, that easy-

..as you all know, mental issues..intrigue me? & maybe you
know....i'm sometimes..visit , our pc cruise site?...which has
been a shipwreck...of late. that's, in due courses..makes up
our daily routines.


[ they have been struggling with divorces, sucide, and many
significant stressors....], so


..before posting...i am trying to avoid...professional interacting, instead-
sharing observations...is very comforting...as you may not know, there
really isn't set plans..? in my ways of thinking..life is a mutiple~choice
test..of no prefect answers..and alot in betweens. therefore, i often
find...sucesses ... in utilizing "reality orientation"...toward redircting and
problem solving....& lately i been re-thinking how many "roles expectations"
..are set...in motion....

..every think about the terrible 2's?....a very good example...of the "cause
& effects"....newborns, in generally ,are prefect in every way..until they
start thinking..for themselves..and go exploring ..the dangerous world around
them..it is surprising...all their life, they receive the input..that they are
adore...by everyone..in their care...but then..they are suddenly up &
at'um.....getting into...anything..that is interesting....? soooo alot of
terrible 2's behaviors..are the real life impressions ...we bestowed on them...

just a thought... . reality...you might be surprise..how many have
diffculties...telling the differences..between..positive versus negative
behaviors ?

...so go the importance..of family values..esp. parenting skills...needed
by all children. * it is simply...ludicruous [ok-i'm a lazy to]....that
our school systems..are lacking these support programs?....

* before the terrible 2's...all was required was accepting all the cute
stuff...but when the begin to move..& think...so begins the benefits of
old but never out of style...family ...even when corre3cting.

for what its worth...do you see the addictions...of these pop stars...
to "attention seeking?" ...& as their family values..or lack of..surfaces,
so goes ...their approval by peers ..what if they were not famous/ or $,
....is not congruent...with accepting their roles to adulthood. its so
ironic..cos what made them famous.....in the begining..was attention
seeking,..but chosing positive accomplishments. * there is nothing wrong
in atttention seeking..except the problems begins..when one
choses negative behaviors over positive....so besides the chemical
addictions..& the fame addictions....looking for approval while trying
to deal with alot of anger issues...[ like punishing everyone they feel are
taking advantage of them?] ...is creating a world of emotional pains,
can/will quickly confuses and wears out our resources..to cope....


there's a real differnce between having talents..and coping skills...oh,


remember...mental illness can be defined by one who keeps repeating
the same mistakes..but expecting a different outcome? pssst, often
we see..are those without a support system...so while these famous
stars..have $$$, they are in reality..are "homeless"?... &
even worst...as another stressor,..are the press..making $ off these
struggling stars' miseries...maybe what someone need to remind them...
underneath..the fame ..they are still human beings.

needless..to say..the "news shows."..make me a lil' esp. when
they laugh/joke...about behaviors ..needing help. so,

what i think.... ?... just because a person have problems,
in no way...make a person crazy,...under stress...they need a lil'
redirecting...but as long as a person still has the capablilty to "think
for oneself"...recovery..is highly possible. psst, they don't need the
whole world..to like/respect..them..just a few people that they
can depend on. which is true..for us all...

but while they do "in~deeds" , need some readjusting...they are more than
capable, ..but what does it sez..about those...getting happiness....from
their miseries?..reporters..must have alot in common..with ? ha!...

if one was to look @ predator [animals] behaviors..and see the same kind
of processing? just maybe, we need to rely more on the basics?
..like it is just as easy..to give others a reson to like you as it is to
dislike. funny,
@ work...we "are" attacked..all the time...trying to distract from reality..
but it is so easy to redirect...because my objective never changes...
helping others to start helping themselves...it is that simple.

oh,
in case anyone wondering..speaking for myself..i sorta like the pac man
guy..i like "gobbling up" life knowledge...cos its i think it is fun learning
new ways of thinking...esp. having fun [ ]....so i hope none of this
brings anyone down....& you all going back..being your happy selves..

.

oh~~~"see"..what my lil'miss cutie pie...must put up with??? ,
kinda shows...the doll baby..she really is!, hey..cool pics..nabby,

 

[Lil' Grumpy]

..oh, almost forgot..c~girl, at least my dog me
for all my silly ways..

 

[pumba]

OMG the Geek Squad is here.........just like on TV advertisements.......this is to darn funny.......hubby is here to tell him everything he needs to know.......we bought a new tv and they are calibrating it to whatever it is supposed to do.....I am soooooo laughing

 

[NAB]

Pumba -- are they driving a VW beetle. They do here. You don't have that tv up and running yet? TV's are not so easy to hook up anymore. We have more monster cables behind the TV, I have no idea what they all do.

We had a hard time figuring out why the DVR didn't work before I left. It was as simple as changing the source on the remote....Duh!!

Lil'g-- I have a case of the terrible 10's Are the leaves falling in your pool yet? Or is it covered?

 

[monymony3471]

Just a quick hi.

The kids all work up and it's snack time! Then we are going OUT to play.

 

[pumba]

Deb........we had the tv working but this is PERFECTION .......he already set the surround sound up and it is amazing.......we have had that for two or three years and all of a sudden it is amazing.......gotta love this...
Now hubby wants to go and get a new smaller tv for the bedroom and get rid of the big old honking one.......
