Dang! My UPS, Fed Ex guys just dump my packages on my front porch and RUN back to their trucks They must've heard a rumor about me????

Get This:
In Utah we have MILK MEN!!!!
No, I'm not kidding! Winder Dairy delivers milk and lots of other items to our front porch milk boxes! Very retro!

Our Schwann guys are NOT hot, so sad
They do have GREAT food though. Mad Props Schwann Company!!!
So when I'm running arms stretched to my sides to get my fudgcicles, at least they'll feel "hot" for their WARM welcome !

 

[pumba]

thanks Haley.....I will tell my daughter to make sure all is done and that they check on it in a few...My granddaughters counselor is very good and will hopefully catch any problems.
She is doing a job shadow with a friend of her dads family this week at the vets ......he is our vet too and a good person.....He wants her to go to Orono because he did his undergrad there ....Our son graduated from Orono. Then she is supposed to do an internship with him too. This is good experience and she can have a hands on experience with them

Who cares if they are hot, if all you want is servicing. Close your eyes when you order.

btw, I saw your pic of Jordan and the other babies. I think we need a pic of the milkmen from Winder....I'm just sayin'.

Horsey,

Do you see my handsome miniature Captain Hook? I think I posted it while you were gone.

Glad to see your not raising expectations

BUT, in theory it works

I am so laughing now...... they make pretty good pies too.......I order an occasional apple pie and a pumpkin pie to have sitting in my down stairs freezer in case company calls and I have ZIPPPPPPPPP to make...so pop one of those suckers in the oven and voila .....instant dessert....

Hubby will make the pies for next week though......his pie crusts always look like a baker did them........geesh.....

Speaking of old boyfriends and milk men.....

I dated a guy whose aunt actually did have the old cliche affair... three of the cousins looked like the family but the baby had red hair and freckles just like the milk man

And NO honey, I don't think I will. (Not here anyway )

OMG HORSIE........did you see the weather for tomorrow in our area......torrential downpours and high winds....possibly power outages.....I guess I had better make sure those lanterns are ready for use....have not used them since the ice storm of 98 but they are ready and willing to be used......

it is raining here now......we are already soaked thru......I was supposed to go and pick up the land minds in the back yard.....probably have two or three there waiting to be picked up

 

[Toot Sweet]

Hi, 'Strommers!

Lovely to see you all today. It is really pouring down rain here today.

Utah, really? The milk man comes to your home? That's cool! When I was young and living in a small town, we kids used to take the empty milk jugs to the dairy and get them filled up each week. We'd hook the handles of the jugs on the handles of our bikes while we rode them. Good times, man! I remember that dairy being so stinky though, it really turned me off to milk. To this day, I won't drink it.

Twinkie, hello, my friend!! That is a pity that your ex boyfriend's nephew looks like the milk man. Does his "dad" suspect?

I dated a guy whose mom got frisky with the milk man too. He even walked in on her with the MM once!

Horsey, How YOU doin"? It's always lovely to see you. That picture of that creature was SCARY.

Hi Latoberg and Dre!! How are the kids?

Grammy, thanks for the mint. You are always cracking me up!

HI to everyone!!

 

[drebert]

Hi Toots!

One kid is on the road to recovery but he passed it (whatever it is) along to his little brother. Who is now at home with his Dad and poor little guy has no voice. He's pitiful.
We went to pick Daddy up at the airport and he felt so bad he couldn't even play with him when they got home.

SOOOO not played!

Is this where Wayne's world got the term Schwing from?

Yes pumba...I brought my horses in from the field this morning and into their pens where they will need to get in their stalls to stay out of the weather, or they would just stand in the middle of that!

Dre. I missed it would you post that again please?

LACTO! Welcome back, honey! That is the end of my kindness. Heh heh heh.

 

[drebert]

I LOVE this one!

And not to be left out, Captain Jack.

 

[pumba]

Megara is not an out door dog to go potty dog.....ya catch my drift.....I will hae to go out and hold an umbrella over her head and get my back side SOAKING WET.....while she stays dry......she is to stupid ......wait ....she is not the stupid one I AM>>>>>>>>>>>>.

 

[Lil' Grumpy]

..the more things change,the more they stay the same..

i can't 'troll" how funny it was reading the stories about the ice cream
man...

though i haven't done the single scene ..since jimmy carter...your stories
are stimulating some old expired synapses...i could've..probably should
have written an..instruction..manual!

unlike our dearest of friend, sheridac ,i wasn't blessed
with over flowing lucky charms....but compensating was the name of the
game....[dating}..well let me exposed a lil of the opposite side...opinions:

girls in skorts are guys favorites... ..let me see? what was
young women looking for? ahhhhhh..one up on the competition...is why
i read women magizines...& the advice stories telling young ladies what
they should be "looking for"...wonder why that info would be important
....

ladies...sometimes guys "worked"...in groups....i never hang around the
guys lurking like brad pitt....instead all the guys looking ..like barney..
think about it...? it's all about projecting a ..positive image? [being the
best one can be..sometimes is having those around with less]

dancing was my favorite social activity...i used to watched band stand..
and practiced...but alot of the girls..were shy and was afraid, since they
had no dancing lessons....#1 reason for saying no...so to overcome this
lil obstacle...i devised dances that required the girl only have to follow
my lead...& they would look like experts....yes..i prefered the traditional
ballroom dancing...& updated them...with the focus, to give you ( my
partner)...the princess treatment! let's say it wasn't nothing for me
to dance 3-4 hrs. straight..that's hard work!


the rules....you don't asked a young lady that you have never met,
to slow dance first....you be surprised after making them look really special,
how often they would slow dance....slow dancing..is an art form.there's
a difference in between flattery & obnixious...

to me..being clean and neat..is the first step being ..sexy..and let me
say this....i was very attracted by all the lil lady like things my wife
did when we first met...on our first date...i brought her one of those
hugh lil kisses..hint, hint ..was my first comment..she didn't listened very
well.

you don't asked the last lady at the table where's there's a group? why?
if the others are up....she most likely "watching" the purses...however,
it dosne't hurt to stop by and say

guys! pay attention and recognized their lil but special detailings...don't
be intrusive and focus on the "here & now"...and while it is disappointing,
to be turned down..by the first young lady in a grouppie...don't asked
the next one..no one likes to look second best...but...a lil small talk,
and apprication- should ended- with maybe later?..you be surprised how well
that work! .....again pay attention..don't asked when they just
getting settle in...there's something to be said for timming! also study your
"target" areas {well i am officer...& trying to be a gentleman}....

"presentation/s are important!"...needless to say, i resorted to many types
based on what my observations were telling me..dang women!..it was
surprising how many would actually "look" you up and down....i always wore
my high -heels "dancing " shoes { some were so cool..patten leather...&
all had taps..back and front...} . i wore my london fog jacket to impress.
based on my father recomendation to "pinned" a $$ bill out of the breast
pocket....guess where his mind was at...instead, i often offer the girls lil
chocolate treaties..whether they said yes or no....on occasion, you be
surprised that this made them changed their minds? true.

ok guys, if you make a nice connection..don't forget her phone number..

i seldom talk about me...cos i was a combat medic..delgeted to an ob ward..
..part of lil miracles was a common occurance...sooooo..if any of you was
born ...some where near 30 years..ago..we might have already met...
colorado springs' babies here?

[believe it or not..i was actually very accomplished at this "field"..& the
stories i could tell.]....but i didn't see this being conducive to impressing
young ladies...i will tell this..it was so ironic for me..since i was a miracle
baby myself...isn't life funny?

ha!..i did met an older lady...i think she was 24...and she "striked". we
we became good friends...and she was an ice capade dancer..and an
acquitance of n. diamond...she was so full of life & so much fun! and
she was the person who pushed me to backpacked europe..she knew all
the ropes..since she did touring with ice capades...

see..what all; this ice cream man talk did? it reminded me of my earlier
days when i was a room rooper...but i hope my lil insights..made you laugh
and "see" the other side..for better or worst...

p.s..ooops tink..i gave the wrong site..where our lil princess [jordan] is
going to be married..way,way,way in the furture...til then, she is daddy's
lil girl! nabby....about 100pages ago..i wrote a few cruise hints..i don't
think you saw,cos i missed you....

guys? wanta know what your ice cream dleivery man got me wondering?
what kind of outfits you all were wearing when he came to the house....
maybe you'll post some here? and what's your favorite favor?

as for me, thanks for the warning..if i ever see any milkman or ice cream
man..i think i be having a lil talk....well, i am old fashioned to a fault....
