October 29, 2005 Magic Part 2

[Tenorsinging]

Anyway, Welcome Back Lynne Been so long, huh? I've never heard of that movie (then again, I haven't gotten out much lately either). Hey, at least you were with the one you love. That's what counts. Date nights....we used to have those - many moons ago.

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

Trishala Dahling: Serenity is a movie that was written by Joss Wheden, the guy that created/wrote Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the spin off Angel. All of it wasn't yuck...just not my cup of tea. Like Buffy and Angel though. Hubby liked it, that's what counts.

Yes, that date nite is import tantay. I takeum much flackum from some family members for having Miss Judit. WARNING: RANT COMING "You should be taking care of your own kid,...she's raising her...""" blah blah blah Well, I am still her parent, and I AM raising her....but I want to go back to school and finish my degree. My parents died, my sister died, Tim's mom is gone, his dad is in England....my closest relative is 2 hours away. Not conducive to just "droppin her off". Here is their other arguments "well, welcome to parenthood, that's just part of the sacrifice". Yes it is, and all of us good parents do make sacrifices. But most of the people telling me this, are people who have a huge family network of support system around them and several people to drop them off with. "Well, get a babysitter". We have had them, the last one we fired when we came home at 8:30, not midnight or anything, but 8:30 and she was asleep on the couch and Saralinda was alone in the playroom......that's when we tried the Aupair in America process. And ya know what???? It works for us!!!!! We are happier and when the parents are happier, the children are happier. Judit is very quiet, shy meek and reserved compared to us. She doesn't disrupt the flow of the house, and has never even come close to trying to userp my authority. Every major decision is cleared by me, and I keep my thumb in all the other pies as well. Everytime the last minute things happen now as they always do, she is there to help out. For Saralinda it's just a great "big sister" type of arrangement. It's such a win-win situation, I think they just need to get over it!!!! One of the people is Saralinda's Godmother, so I do take it from her a little better than the others....but still. My kid, my rules. Never gave her any input on raising her kids!!!!

okay, rant over now.......tenor returns the soap box............

 

[Tenorsinging]

Tenor? Have you found any dinnermates yet?

I don't know....because I have the late seating....no one has told me for sure if they want me

 

[luckey-lasvegas]

Tenor you go girl ! I have an Aupair that takes care of Cassie at night while go to work. His name is Edd but Cassie calls him daddy.

I figure in this life I only have to make 3 people happy 1st me then Edd and Cassie, the rest can go to you know where, relatives included.

 

[tinkryansmom]

I am home..waiting for the screen installer to give me a bid...oops..there is the gate calling...he is here

Hey now....I don't happen to live in a high fa-luten gated neighborhood!! No gate, no guard, no phoning in the guests.

Y'all I think Betsy has just been posing as steerage material...but really is royalty in disguise!!

Geez - my guests just park it on the curb and walk right to my door.

Wish that UPS man would do just that....no docs here yet. Maybe I'll wait on hold for Costco travel for the next 30 minutes so they can tell me to wait another week. Maybe not. I would most likely want to choke someone after.

Warning: tinkryansmom has a temper! Send choco....well, you know!

 

[SueEllen]

welll.....may have fudged a wee little bit..not exactly a pauper....we do have season tickets for the Cowboys....but they are CRAPPY seats!!! What did we pay for the options....I think about $1,000, from a guy in the paper, and they cost about $1,200 a season....they are gunna build a new stadium soon, so lordy knows what that will do to the price...might price us outta goin.

well, I don't care if it rains or freezes, as long as I have my plastic Jesus...sittin on the dashboard of my car..

Ohhh, I would LOVE it if I lived close enough to actually see the Cowboys at home! Season tickets would be wonderful. I did see them in Charlotte for one of the playoff games several years ago (picture me all dressed in my Emmit Smith Jersey, cowboys jacket, surrounded by Carolina Panther fans (and excellent seats I might add!) I was hounded the entire game but I didn't mind.

Now if I could just manage to get to a few Braves games (other than the Richmond Braves) we would be in business.

THREE WEEKS!!!! I'm so excited.
Sue Ellen

 

[Tenorsinging]

Yes Sue Ellen, it is always just that more fun to watch when you are seeing it live.


KNOCK KNOCK

WHO'S THERE?

LUCIOUS SCRUMDILLYUMPTUOUS UPS GUY

LUCIOUS SCRUMDILLYUMPTUOUS UPS GUY WHO?

LUCSIOUS SCRUMDILLYUMPTUOUS UPS GUY....who was just bringing my Keurig K-Cups instead of my DOCS!!!!!!!!!

....heavy sigh......

 

[Tenorsinging]

Thanks Luckey...also it helped alot to have her while I was still with the RichTones, especially after I made the front row. Rehearsal's galore, and when we were at International or Regionals out of town, it meant every town I went into, did background checks on agencies....agency fees....minimum of 4 hours...$20 to $25 an hour......man did that add up. Just to go to the Cowboy game at $10 an hour is $60-70 a game, and that's if there is no OT or traffic jams. I know, I know, some of you lurkers may be reading this and saying "wahhhh, poor baby" and really some of you may have a point. But I think if there are simple ways of making your life easier, and everyone in the house happy, isn't it worth it??? We have full time help for what we were paying before for 2-3 nights a month.


HEY, and SPEAKIN O LERKERS.....have you noticed that we have over 32,000 or 42,000 or sumpin like that views, and there's only about 20 of us that post?

[Soccermom-Cheri]

Remember ABC's School House Rock, where they sang the Preamble to the Constitution??? In the 5th grade, everyone in class had to stand up and say it from memory once. That's the way I remembered it, just sang it in my head......

....we the people in order to form a more perfect union....

don't remember that one, but sometimes I can't stop singing "I'm just a bill,yes, I'm only a bill and I'm sitting here on Capitol Hill..." (and that'd be bill with a small "b".)

 

[Tenorsinging]

congrats T&P!!!

man hope I aint lastarooski. I keep thinking of that Bug's Bunny cartoon where they are all singing opera songs and he's the Barber of Seville...."don't you look perplexed...can't you see you're next?....You're so next"

HOPIN I AM SOOOO NEXT



HEY!!!!! Can I share a proud MOMMY MOMENT?????

SARALINDA JUST LOST HER FIRST TOOTH!!!!!!

CHERI: Yes, that's a good one too. I have them all on a tape for Saralanda to watch one of these days.

To Beano Lord Of The Disneycruiseline,


I Have So Question About Docs

1. They Only Gave Me One Bahamas Immagration Form
2. And 1 Embarktion-departue Form But Both Names On It

Is That For Both Of Us

Tenor Give Her A Dollar, Or Ill Have To Give Her A Dollar

 

[BeanoC]

Lord of the DisneyCruiseline??

Oh, for the love of Donny and Marie!

You may just call me 'Admiral'

You only need one immigration form per family. Everyone on the ship has to meet in the Walt Disney theater at a specific time (based on your last initial, I believe) and be cleared by immigration to go ashore in St. Thomas. It's not as bad as it sounds. You'll have to sit in the theater for 10 or 15 minutes, then it takes them all of 2 minutes to clear ya. No biggie.


I too learned the entire preamble from that song! Another favorite is "Interjections show excitement, or emotion..." and also "5,10,15,20, ready or not, here I come".

Gawd, I am so old.



'Beano'

 

[Tenorsinging]

HOW BOUT THIS ONE????

conjunction junction what's your function?????

 

[RonnieJo66]

anyone remember....





"Time for Timer"

 

[Tenorsinging]

I don't remember that one, how did it go????

Okay RJ gotta vote for the spawn: quarter, 50 cents, or a dallah????

 

[RonnieJo66]

Tenor:

first tooth right?...


give the girl a "dallah"!!

 

[Tenorsinging]

ummmmmm....errrrrrrr....erumma rum......RJ?????????

Can I borrow a dallah??????????

 

[RonnieJo66]

Tenor:



Beano sez to give her your credit card instead!!!!!!!!

 

[Tenorsinging]

You mean the credit card hubby cut up today after he saw the bill????????

 

[Soccermom-Cheri]

"two bits, four bits, six bits, a dollah ..." what the heck is a "bit"? If'n you 'member that, you is old - course, I don't remember that, yeah that's it. (might just be me and Beano)

Whew! Thankfully that nasty "age" discussion stopped. A lady never speaks of age. Me neither. and this is not permission to start it again.

Tenor - wait until she loses her top two front teeth. It's the goofiest, and cutiest little smile you'll see. If we could only keep them that little (Cheri dreaming of a time before the talking back began ...)

... and hey, Tenor, what is this "Date Night" thing? Who is he and doesn't DH mind?
