Spring, what's spring? Oh wait.. that's the 60mph winds we have once a week


Steve - cannot wait to see photos of the boat!!!

Tomorrow is the BIG day! We pick up the boat

I am really looking foward to filling that 39 gal gas tank NOT

You'll have to let us know what the price of boat gas is when your done.

I was going to fill up my van this morning but the pump was SO slow I eventually gave up at less than $30. I was excited to see in DuPage County gas was only $3.65 a gallon. How sad when that's a thrill compared to prices right near our house, which are easily $.10 more per gallon. Yikes!!! Sadly, I don't think it will be long before it tops $4.


Good idea with the motorcycle, Gail. I hear others are doing that instead of using a regular car.

John was getting gas for his truck last night and as the $$$$$ were going up he was amazed. He finally stopped at $80. Actually, for what he spends in a month on gas for the truck, we could lease a little car and the payment and gas for it would be less than what the gas for the truck is.

We're at the $3.59 a gallon, but wait that was yesterday I'm sure it's up again today.

We're taking the motorcycle out tonight and meeting up with a group of people to ride and then going to dinner. Hey, does that make me a Biker Babe????

[Diana Lyn]

I love the new 'do Colleen!



Did any of you guys catch the clip of the lady with the alligator in her kitchen on the Today show this morning! http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/apr/22/pinellas-woman-finds-gator-her-kitchen/?news-breaking

I saw that on the news last night I guess the big ugly spiders I find aren't nearly as bad as seeing that gator laying around your kitchen.

The 911 tape is hysterical. The operator clearly thinks it's an old lady who is off her rocker. She's like---are you sure it's not an iguana?? Like you could possibly mistake an alligator for an iguana!?!

OMG Yes and I was so thinking... I hope Diana is not watching this!!!

Well heres the story................Good thing the Dis cuss filters are in full force!


We drove to the store to pick up our boat and it isnt ready

Not only not ready but not even on the schedule to be done today!

AND the mopes in charge arent even around to face the music. We were so ticked off the poor guy who was there finally gave us a $100 gift card to go eat in the resturant. So now I have to wait until tomorrow to see what the manager is going to offer us for our dissatisfaction. I am gonna make him SQUEEL. It is tough to even talk about it .

So no new boats pics till next week I guess GRRRRRRRRRRR

Here is BUDDY and Nick

He is just amazing!!!! A really smart dog.

 

[cgcw]

Nice new do, Coleen!

That really, really stinks about the boat. Good luck dealing with the manager today - hopefully they will make the wait worth it for you. Where has all the customer service gone these days?

Nice looks happy with his new friend Buddy.

 

[chipscinderelly]

Steve that totally rips on the boat! Love the new do for the Mrs!!!

Erin - Nick and Buddy are PRECIOUS!!!

Cindy...I love those Dupage prices...I always fill up in Dupage or Will...I think I filled up at 3.56 on Sunday afternoon at meijer in Will county. I am sure those $4 a gallon prices are on the way!

Hi all!!

Steve - Coleen's new cut looks great!!
Erin - Nick & Buddy look like they are having a blast together!!

I missed the lady with the alligator...darn!
The weather has been awesome here the last week or so but gas prices definately have not. Today alone at one station we pass going to and from work went from $3.60 this morning to $3.69 when we got home .
I was shocked to say the least. I might have to get a motorcylce!

 

[iluvdisney]

Hi everyone! On baby watch here - the lil' guy (Christopher's cousin) was due last week and we're still waiting so I haven't been around too much. Glad to read that all seem to be doing well. And also happy to see signs of spring altho I do not like what I heard about our weather coming next week.
Hope to type an announcement soon - take care everyone!

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Steve...Colleens new hair cut looks great!! Sorry to hear about the boat...Let the manager have it when you talk to him!

Erin...Those are great pics of Nick and Buddy!

Gail...Yes that means your a biker babe! As far as the $80 goes to fill up his truck...Thats less than Tim pays to fill up his titan...Now its costing us around $95-100. I told him he needs to buy a car to drive back and forth to work, and save the truck for hauling and when we need more space. But he just cant see himself in a car. I bought a new car about 3 weeks ago and tried to convince him to buy the same one for himself and keep the truck, but he wouldnt do it!

Mary...Hope your new grandson decides to make his grand entrance soon!

Well, not much going on here this weekend, Tim has a friend from England in town, so we are heading downtown to meet him, and then packing for us. We leave on Wednesday for Myrtle beach, my work is taking all of us! I am going to a class on Friday and Saturday, and the rest of the time is fun time! Never been there, but I have heard great things!

 

[#1Mouse]

Steve, that's too bad about the boat! Hopefully they get it resolved.

Mary I hope you get some news fast about the newest grand baby. They have a way of doing things on their own schedule.

Erin - buddy is adorable, looks like Nick enjoys him.

Tina have fun in Myrtle Beach. We were there in 2001 for my parents 50th Anniversary. We had a great time. The kids still talk about that trip and want to know when we are going back. There's plenty there to keep you busy.

Sorry...I forgot to email you, and let you know that I sent them your way! Things have been slightly busy around here! Glad they got to you safe and sound! I figured I pop in quickly and say hey!

Just got back to work about an hour ago, I spent the morning with my Grandma at the hospital...She has been diagnosed with congestive heart failure, and they admitted her. My mom came to the hospital, so I went back to work to catch up on paperwork and the other things.
