MOOvin' Along - Goog Times, Goog Friends . . . Part 3

[Minnie_Moo]

Marita, sounds like you had a pretty relaxing day! I need to get started on laundry.

The puppies are totally zonked out tonight, they played so hard with my friends' dogs. I'm trying to make sure they are well-socialized.

It should be lots of fun to see how they do with the grand-dog in a couple weeks!!!

Hi, y'all,
Got back from the wedding last night about 11:15. When I pulled in my neighbor's security light and lights inside her house were on. When I got out of the car, the whole block went pitch black. Went in and power was out. Thank googness I use my cell phone for an alarm clock. Four am came extra early, though. Had volleyball after work today, and came home, started on the crossword in Thursday's paper, and woke up 4 hours later. That extra hour tonight will be a blessing.
I didn't get the garter, actually we tried to tip it to Goofy, but some guy we didn't know snatched it. I have a whole collection but none of them worked.
BTW the groom was named Gary Carlton, but the preacher c said do you take Gary Coleman to be your ... Whatchu talkin 'bout, preacher? He grinned and said, I told you it wouldn't be perfect.
Moo, I still haven't had my reuben fix. Maybe Monday. It's all Marita's fault that I'm craving one.
Gonna check the scores and head back to bed.
Nite Moovers.

Reuben craving, huh, DTD? I'll give you a new craving........

On December 13, I have my 35th anniversary with the company banquet. Reception with shrimp, kobe beef kabobs, and whatever other delicacies, followed by a steak and lobster dinner. Then entertainment and more goodies.

It's my 35th and hubby's 30th anniversary dinner, but we will sit at seperate tables with our respective "BIG" bosses, so my date will be my son, and Hubby's date will be DD. but we get to spend before and after dinner/entertainment tiime together. And get our pictures taken with the BIG CHEESE!

Oh and for those of you that know them, I am going to meet Nebo and Smidgy and Colleen that day at 1pm! Then leave to get ready for the banquet at 2:30. It will NOT be a productive day at work..........

GOOG MORNING!

Only one page since yesterdee? I guess everybody had fun stuff to do.

I went back to church last night to coordinate the dinner for the youth. It was easy...I only had to "make" hash brown casserole for 60, prepare a fresh fruit tray (bought the fruit already cut up) and make the lemonade.

We bought trays of chicken nuggets and wraps from Chick-Fil-A. Did you know they give 20% off to church groups. Tell your church folk! Anyway, all went smoothly...we just had to slap some hands of the first few kids who went through the line who tried to take 20-ish nuggets.

This afternoon we are going over to some friends' house to watch the BNCG/Lalijack Smackdown...I mean the Colts/Patriots game. Our friend is from Marshfield Hills, Lynette. Do you know where that is??

do you take Gary Coleman to be your ... Whatchu talkin 'bout, preacher?

Now THAT is funny! Did anybody get that on video?? I'd send it to America's Funniest Home Videos! Arby's has goog reubens FYI.

Pumba....Glad you are feeling better and are in good spirits!

Moo.....Sounds like you and the kids had a busy day!

Bum-Layin' Master Marita!...So cool that you are gonna get to meet nebo, smidgy, and colleen! They are all so sweet!

Celery....Please repeat after me....Morning Spark is for the morning! (hence the name) Hope you got a goog night's sleep last night.

NAB....Hope you're having fun at the in-laws.

Everybody else....

HAVE A WONDERFUL, BLESSED SUNDAY!

Last edited by lexmelinda : Today at 07:30 AM. Reason: Did everybody remember to "fall back" last night??? Just checkin...

I did.

Unfortunately small children didn't get the memo. I have been "up" as in laying on the couch as they climb on me, talk to me, demonstrate gymnastics for me, jump on me for hours now. We are watching the Disney classic "Babes in Toyland".
We all love that movie.

Anyway- hi all! I am going to cut this short and wake up the menfolk. I think we should use our extra hour to go to early church since most of us are already up and have had the breakfast of champions (peanut butter Cap'n Crunch)

Have a great Sunday!

Mooovers.

We got in really late from the rodeo. I probably feel asleep around 3 or was that 2? I did not set my clocks back until this morning, so I'm going with 3.

Lots of things went wrong, and I won't bore y'all with details, but let's just say it was a crazy trip.

Needless to say we did not make it to church this morning. In fact, dd is still asleep. Poor kid is worn out.


the lalijack/bncg smackdown-Lol! I hope the Colts can pull it off. That's all I'll say about that.

 

[Minnie_Moo]

Lex, you're always cookin' up something yummy! We have no ChikFilA's up here but I've eaten there a couple times while driving to Florida. Enough to know to ask for unsweetened tea

Marita, glad to hear you will finally be meeting Nebo and Smidgy! Not sure who Colleen is. Are they going to be job hunting on this next trip?

Twink, sorry the kiddies didn't get the DST memo. I also got up way too early. The answering machine was beeping. Apparently we slept through a phone call last night. I had a phone message from my little sis saying to call her when I got the message. So I did this morning and she filed me in on some family drama. But I did go back to sleep for a bit after the pups' morning constitutional.

Hope you get your reuben soon, DTD. Mine was delish

Welcome home, E! Did PJ go to the rodeo too? Hope your DD gets rested up.

how many more books are there in this Harry collection.......I am half way thru four......NOW WHY OH WHY did I start it.....cause I had gone thru all my other books...and I know......its not all that bad....sort of strange in some ways ....but a good read I guess.....

Hubby is filling the bed as I type.......out came the old water first and in goes the new water .....had to vacumm the bottom of the liner first......make sure the heater is still functioning......this is our third heater too.....

hubby is airing out the house too......shut the furnace off and opened the windows......wonder if he is nuts or what........ROFL.....but he doesnt read the dis so I can say that...

Megara sort of woke up the old time and then laid on her back with feet in the air for hubby to rub her belly.......I slept in until 7ish new time.....

Think I will be glad when the candy corn is ALL GONE.....

 

[Minnie_Moo]

Pumba, there are seven Harry Potter books. I didn't like book five very well, but thought the ones after that were better. I listened to the last two on CDs instead of reading them.

All of our Halloween candy is gone We didn't have all that much, but I am glad it is no longer a temptation.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Another beautiful day here! This is my favorite Sunday of the year

However, the flip side comes tomorrow, when I have to get up an hour earlier than my body clock And I have a meeting first thing at my usual starting time, which I have a hard enough time making on Mondays on regular time. But I sent in my proposal already for the discussion, so maybe I will be excused

I just did a couple of hours of work, because I felt guilty. I was not very productive last week More I could do but I don't feel like it...

Off to check out the TR's. Oh, that reminds me, Moo. Nebo and Smidgy are not job hunting, but they already had the trip booked before with something like a $40 rate, so they decided to go anyway.

See you all later (so to speak..)

Hello all. I am Ms. Hoity Toity. I am currently communicating to you from Panera bread in fabulous Brentwood. I am a mover and a shaker because I have my laptop with me. Aren't you all glad to know me?

I feel like I'm pretending to be a cool kid.
You know, like Utah?

Wait.
Did I mean she is a cool kid or she's pretending to be a cool kid.
Hmmm.

Considering strangers walk up to her at Disney World and say "Can I have your autograph?" I think she's a fer real cool kid.

Speaking of!!!
I used sons of provo as an example in my homework for today.
Here's an excerpt:

I think it's interesting how people get around communication rules. Another example I've seen is of a mock Mormon boy band one of my Mormon friends introduced me to. They poke fun at the fact that cussing is not allowed, so they use words like "fetch" and "helk" as substitutes.

I made sure to mention it's a MORMON friend so no one would think I was being controversial. Especially since I already had one homework post this week about religion and being gay.


twinkie - human jungle gym play is goog times! I was a slide last night. for what seemed like an hour while still holding riley and working on grasshopper's present.

oh yeah - anthony tried to "help" with Grasshopper's present without asking.
I came back to it and noticed several stitches that were NOT in the standard X formation and lots of knots.
After I excised his "help," I got him a spare piece of fabric, some embroidery floss and a needle so he could practice.
He gets frustrated too easily though.

We had a lot of fun at the park yesterday. Until I bumped my head going through a fort. It made me very sad. But Jeanie had already had two hissy fits, so I figured it was time to go.

Talk to you later.
I have coffee to sip and important looking stuff to work on.

Cel, you are automatically a cool kid working with a laptop at Panera Bread

Mental note, I have to go to one sometime, not for laptop use, but to check out the menu. Wait, they probably have a website, duh!

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Hmmm....do I even pretend I read back?

Did everyone have a goog weekend? We went on a shopping trip to Columbus. I guess people not from Ohio wouldn't know that Columbus has 2 really great shopping areas.

On Friday night my sister and I were just walking around the lobby of our hotel and my sister was like "look at that guy, he looks a whole lot like Bill Gates, doesn't he?" I was smiling and nodding. How was I supposed to know what Bill Gates looks like? To make a long story short, Bill Gates was staying at the hotel because he was giving a lot of money to a high school in Columbus. I made my sister stand in front of this table he was sitting by and I pretended to take her picture and we got some pictures of him. We were lurking around him the whole rest of the night in the lobby. He's quite the chatterbox, but he was boring to listen to. I'll upload the pictures and post them. In a normal amount of time.

Time to get ready for another week!

 

[Minnie_Moo]

Cel, Panera is one of my favorite places to eat! I have "laptopped" there a couple of times, but now I mostly just use the batphone. There are usually a ton of students (like you!) there whenever I go

Marita, you should definitely go to Panera. They have great bread. And soups. And salads. And sandwiches. And ice tea . . .

PJ, that is so cool that you saw Bill Gates! So what'd you buy??! We were wondering if you were trolloping at the rodeo this weekend

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

I bought some shoes. And some pants. I had to replace the ones I got bleach all over. I think I told that story over there. And a headband. And I think that's all.

Trolloping at the rodeo will take place Friday. Yeehaw.

 

[Backstage_Gal]

Marita, you should definitely go to Panera. They have great bread. And soups. And salads. And sandwiches. And ice tea . . .

Moo, Panera is 30 miles the opposite direction from work, so not going there for lunch. Maybe if I go Christmas shopping (provided I do any that is not online.... )

I did manage to go out for a little bit this afternoon, it was such a great day! Besides, I needed more wine, LOL.

I am wavering about taking a nap or not. If I take one, I might stay up too late and miss my meeting tomorrow. But then again, I am tired....

I still have some laundry to hang and coffee to make and dishwasher to empty too, dang! And I should curl my hair

Maybe I'll just close my eyes for a few minutes without laying down with a blanket...

 

[Minnie_Moo]

How can you not like Panera, Peej?!

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

How can you not like Panera, Peej?!

It's not that I don't like it. I don't like it or dislike it. It underwhelms me. Never been impressed with anything there. Maybe I just got sick of it because I ate there all the time in high school because it was walking distance from school so it was a goog place to sneak out to at lunch. Not that I would ever do that.

Weekends go so fast even with an extra hour.

My Mom was putting up her Christmas lights this weekend. She is 74 and still gets up on the ladder to do them. She puts tons up too and just keeps adding to them every year. She won last year for best in the neighbourhood.

Moo-- have to do laundry too and get the kids bathed and ready for school tomorrow.

We don't have Panera here? Is it like a bakery, deli combo? Sounds good.

I heard on the news that the borders are crazy trying to cross back into Canada so I guess it is a good thing we didn't go. We get an extra $5.00 on our $100.00 exchange right now. I am sure the travel agents are going crazy right now for winter vacations.
