Open Mike Night - Everyone is Welcome

[NAB]

Okay I think I need to go to bed now..... I am seeing weird words.

Tomorrow is Hubby's birthday. Still haven't baked that whatever. I think it will be a white cake with rainbow pieces and white icing. No chocolate. DD even gave up her chocolate ice cream tonight when we were out. She said to me at least I can have chocolate cake for my birthday right. Her birthday is in May.....

Night all.

Why do I feel less than enthused about being called a Meep?

Love you/Mean It, Moo, but this is crossing the border.

Someone would have to talk me into it.

I think I like the meeps thing.
Can't sleep.
At least I was awake to take my calcium.
So I think I got all the energy today my body had been saving up for. I went on three walks for a total of 45 minutes. Woo!

Could you dedicate one of them to me since I didn't bother to move today more than I had to.

I cant believe you're up and around so soon.

Y'all- I have a cat named Meep! No kidding! She makes a sound like "meep" when she meows. So, when I adopted her from the animal shelter, I asked her what her name was and she said: "Meep" and that was that! She also has an "M" on her side (or a "W" depending on which way I'm holding her...or a "3" or and "E" )

 

[celerystalker]

Don't spin the cat ute!!!!
I dedicate the middle walk to you. Where I pretended to "hike" (I went up the grassy hill to our pool and tennis courts).
You went on an adventure with me and the dogs and didn't even know it!
I'm going to try and sleep again.
Night!

nabbby g. ...did your daughter finished her card? [ i bet your
husband thanks his lucky stars for finding you...... ]


ok, i hate to admitt it, but i don't do attention well..sorry, but
its feels akward ..as my favorite role is to on the other side....
you guys ... me..to death! i am pretty sure the tag fairy
was aiming at one of you & i just got in the way...pink isn't
my color. and iam sure its from you guys, cos this is the only
place i feel comfortable showing some of my "stuffings".

..on the way home, i was thinking about w.t. . now that's best
signature i ever read! talk about being wide open....any toppings
goes wih him...well, of course, i wouldn't put w.t. in the middle
between twinkle & utah. ..if i didn't think he couldn't handle them.
heck not only that..having fun!

my work is so "heavy" in human drama that this is a very good
site for me...you all refresh my worn out/tired old batteries! it's so
good to know...
utahm..i can imagined how scary that experience was,being so close
to home... ,you bounced back, with your happy ,happy
thoughts...helps everyone to cope.

anyone who likes a pumba has to be something special.* that's was
my first felling a year before ever posting..when i was reading trippie.
i was that you decided to post here!

minnie moo & her cows....

let's me talk a lil'high schoolin...i was not popular in being rich or all
the jocks stuff [though i was very good at catching a football]....
cliques?...pheewy, i could care a flying leap..however, telling them off..
made me the most popular and all the rest......you don't need the whole
world liking you as long as you have your family and a few friends. heck
no! if i had to put others down to be accpeted, i rather be by myself.
kindness toward others will encourage them to share their good
feelings with you....& those secrets can produced alot of sucess. we live
on top a lil mountain...i found this for pennies on the dollar by going
around and knocking on people doors....theree is something to be said
for all he basic hings that were taught in schools. i was a papper boy/
honor carrier for 3 years..you know, my customers were elderly in the
country..they loved telling their stories..& i gained wisdom way beyond
any books!


sure i pounding this message, cos its true, you all are alot more valuable
than a pot of gold[ though i'll take that to ]...my lil irish blessing at you!

Good morning sunshines heres todays riddle http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1366387

Mommy P do those Bath bombs have a scent? I saw someone mention them on a trip report once. I read a book that was about here too, you can visualize excatly what they are saying which is cool. 71/2 years that is pretty good, now you are good for another 7 That's what I like about your posts you are so real about how you feel.

Yes, they all have different scents. I don't know what the one I used last night was, but it was good.

And MommyP was just over there throwing some oil on the fire for poor detroitdad, whoever he is, so I had to jump in and smooth things over. I just put MommyP in the Time Out chair.

You're no fun! Party pooper!

I thought MommyP's comments were hilarious!!!

I'm glad someone enjoyed it.

Well, I tried to talk to DH last night. But he was being a butt. So we still aren't talking.

I'm off to school and to look at rentals in Ocala...and jobs.

MP.....It is sometimes good to just not say anything when you are disagreeing with spouses. BUT never go to bed without saying I love you. That is from being married to the same guy for 40 years in May. Not always easy but I always made sure we said it. Sometimes disagreements were never settled but forgotten. I cant count on my fingers and toes how many times we have slept apart except when he was in the hospital for the gun exploding into his neck a year and a half ago. Almost lost him. But the surgeons and trauma unit mds and all those wonderful nurses and workers kept him going for me....So if we get angry now I just call him a name and he calls me a name and we laugh about it....Life is to short to be angry, or to hold grudges. Boy I am getting deep this morning........better have another cup of the coffee pot........
have a good day my friends.......

 

[MommyPoppins]

Thanks Pumba. I tried to smooth things over last night when I went to bed. I figured he was going to stay on the couch until he woke up later and came to bed. I wanted him to have a good nights sleep so I called him into the bedroom and was going to apologize. He walked in with an attitude, said,"What?" I told him nicely I wanted him to come to bed so he could sleep good. He took one look at the window and said,"I'm not sleeping in here you have that blind open!" WTH? I was like,"huh? The blind was already open, I just went to bed, you can close it." He went back to the couch. About 30 minutes later I was half asleep and he came in and laid down. We never said anything to eachother. I, like you always said never to go to bed angry, always talk and say I love you. I've pushed that for 7 years! In that time there has been many times we went to bed angry. He is SO stubborn! And you can't MAKE someone talk to you.



What up with the blind? We don't have any neighbors? Who's gonna look in?

Goog Morning Meeps!

I'm up bright and early this mornin'! Bright eyed and bushy tailed (a little too bushy for my taste) and am WAYYYYY too excited to sleep. Whenever we see the Disneyland advertisements on TV, we all about fall apart with glee!!!!!!

goin' to Disneyland, goin' to Disneyland!!!!!!!!


First things first though. I woke up at 2AM freaking that we need cat food for the cats (Meep included) and dude food for the boy(DS17 and 3/4). I asked him what he wanted me to go get for him to eat and he started listing things that are microwaveable....Hel-LO? So he just wants sandwich stuff. Done!


I'll be right back. I gotta go get me a big gulp to last while I pack the burban!

I don't know NAB.... Mr. Nab is pretty adorable. Good luck with that.

MommyP-
Celery- glad to hear you are feeling better!
Utah! I am going to miss you girl!!! Have fun last minute packing, cleaning, making sammiches for Jordan and spinning the cat!

I am sorry I missed all the fun last night! I guess I can be a Meep. Better than Joe's Peeps (no offense Joe... you are great... I just don't fancy being called a Jeep).

In other news I got a hateful email last night from a student ... a non-traditional student so she is older than I am.... Maybe I am old fashioned but I cannot IMAGINE telling off a teacher or a boss.... she had one valid point cloaked in 5 paragraphs of things like "I think your tests are not designed to test what we know but to trick us" ... of course I am waiting till I am not emotionally "up" to reply which of course will imply that I didn't meet her concerns quickly etc etc

In a profound effort to be around more, I thought I'd say good morning!


Utma - did I wish you a good trip yesterday? If I forget, then, well, I'm wishing you now. If I remembered, then, I guess I'm wishing you a good trip twice. Which should make it twice as good, right?

I'm trying to set up our trip for this fall. Wherein I will be buying annual passes (theoretically for this year and next year. In reality so that I can take the kids down for weekends!). I made a ressie, changed it five-teen times, settled on POFQ room only with the 40% code. Now my DARLING husband has informed me that he has a training seminar the week following our dates, and will not want to miss school for two solid weeks. (Work wasn't such an issue ironically.) So now I have to move my vacation even further back. (Can't move it forward b/c I know what week the girl will have off in 2008. Since she will be in school, finally, that year.)

Now I am left with the week BEFORE the week of Thanksgiving OR the week before Christmas.

What would you do?

Marita - will the Christmas decorations be up by that week in November, or will all be in a flux at that point?

And does anyone know when they start lighting the Osborne lights?

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Twink - just read your post.

Here's what I do when getting that kind of correspondence. Write a response, don't send it. Let it sit (I usually let mine sit for the day, or overnight), then go in, delete all the stuff that made you feel better just to write it down, then have a collegue proof it and take out the rest of the stuff that made me feel better just to write it down.

Then send it back. It will, by then, be sane, logical, and not sarcastic (mostly).

And I feel better, b/c it FEELS like I got to say all the things that I really wanted to say.

And.

If you keep the original response and read it about a month later, you will be rolling on the floor.

My collegues used to make me keep mine. I have a file. Some of them are priceless.
