Something About Nothing..........#5

[donaldduck352]

I don't think this country or those that died in the tragedy would want the rest of us to hole up because of what happened. I think the living must make this country great and be glad that we are the land of the free. Because it is your b-day maybe start looking at the 9/11 as when America was awakened to start being the great country that our forefathers envisioned.

Happy Birthday!!!!!

Well stated.I agree 100% on what you said!!

Happy Birthday Akdar!!!

And thanks for the reminder! I have a good friend who also has a birthday today, which I completely forgot about! At least just sent a quick e-card! That's two birthdays I've forgotten this week - not a good record!

Goodnight all! See Ya in the morning.

Have a great night...

Where have you been shopping? The least expensive one I found was $40!

Trade?

Mine was about $70.00 but it's the fully automated bp cuff which you want to have. DO NOT get the machine where you have to pump it yourself. You might want to check at Walgreen's or Walmart.

When you take your bp...make sure you sit down and relax for 5 mins before you take it or it will give you a false high reading.

Good evening everyone! has anyone heard from Mac? I saw she was on here 5 pages ago. Now when was the last time anyone has not seen her for 5 pages .
This weekend we will be in Indianapolis for a tennis tournament and i was going to let her know in case she wants to "hook up"

So, is there anyone else here on the board that has a birthday today? It's not the same for me since 9/11/2001. Almost seems like I shouldn't be happy today, because of what it represents. Am I explaining myself correctly? I should be happy that it's my birthday, but it's a day of remembrance of a terrible event.

Today is my mom's bday...she feels the same way.

Just stopping in to say Hi. I'm visiting my daughter in south Texas and will be here another week. She is about 5 miles from the coast but it looks like this hurricane will be hitting mostly north of us here. Please keep those in its path in your thoughts and prayers. This will be one big hurricane.

Friday morning

Why do they skyrocket the price of gas when the hurricane hasn't even hit yet? Could be all for none...and if it is...they sure don't give you your money back that they gouged from you

Everyone there should be safe...they've been evacuating for awhile now....

Mike...happy belated birthday...sorry i missed it ...but, you should be happy....it's another year to celebrate you (and...you're not dead if you're here celebrating--which is a good thing). Sure, it's somber, but as long as you take a minute to remember, then it's okay....it's still a day about you

KFed...i think i read you gots your house? Congrats! Welcome to the world of being poor

Scotlass...that's great of Sean! Congrats! You must be so proud!

dm...take care of yourself...bp is not something to mess with!


Don't know what else I missed...but HI to everyone...hope all is well.

Short day at work today...Bubba has karate test tonight....going for his 2nd degree black belt.... won't get home till late.....

Off to clean before work....catch ya's l8r

Yes I do like MIL but she does have her quirks like talking about you and trying to make you thinks its about someone else and then I just step back and let her carry on cause use to it now Cause she has only been doing this for the past 16 years

Oops, I bought the one with the self-pump. However, the rest is digital.

My most recent check was 131/93. Now if those numbers could both drop 8pts, I'd be back to Normal-esque.

I went to Ibar last night (Orlando residents may know of this place). I had a *little* too much Now I know my "Ideal Limit". It was good fun.

Hello all ...

Yes my 9/11 was a slightly better day then I has thought it would have been. I am glad it is over and it doesn't happen again for another year.

So I was looking at the weather and Texas is really gonna get hit this weekend by IKE . I am wondering how gas is going to be here in NYC. We are already pretty high and now it is going to go up again. I hope people are really going to leave where they are told to and head for higher ground. Be safe things are just that things people can NEVER be replaced. God bless all who are in the path .

Need to clean and get stuff together for the crazy Saturday we have.

My oldest is Bowling for a league that gives scholarship money and it starts this weekend . As well as my middle one Katie starting soccor and a class to pass the catholic high school test here . Then there is my son and his first communion classes starting this Saturday . so we have so much squeezed in and no time for it all. This is also the last weekend of our pool club . So sad to see the summer really gone.

will be at a makeup party tonight for Marykay and then off to crazy Saturday so I may be back either later or Sunday .

Go to do the see everyone later

 

[bubba's mom]

We are back...Bubba officially passed his test! Belt ceremony is Thursday nite.

Lawrence...did i read you are going to LIVE with your MIL? Good luck my friend....you are braver than I! But, if it saves everyone money, go for it...more to spend on your 'honeymoon' next year

Kinda quiet around here today....everyone must be hunkerin' down w/ the rains??

Off to ready for bed...early work day tomorrow
