whatever rocks your boat

Here's a few pictures from last weekend:
Miss Shaelyn wanted her face in the food porn shot:

Me & the girls just before heading onto the suspension bridge

My sweetie on the bridge

very cool picture of Shaelyn by the cabin. Check out the window - its a reflection of Kaleigh who was standing near Ken while he was taking the picture.

my angels posing at Stanley park. we saw a great sunset!

nice shot looking out to sea

one happy kid when we were checking out the seawall

I love these pictures, especially the one of both kids in the sunset!

This mouse is driving me CRAZY! I'm literally chasing it around the house! I still haven't seen any evidence left behind, but today I started seeing it dart across the floor. I'm running around trying to drop a bucket upside down on it to catch it that way because it's completely avoiding all traps. I keep putting more traps where I see it (it likes Tyler's bedroom!!!!!!) but can't catch it. I just saw it run from the bathroom into Tyler's room.

EEEEK! That is freaky, get that mouse Holly

Hi All...I had a bum accident...I stubbed my toe and now I'm on crutches and ice and pain killers. It's swollen so it may be a slight fracture or just a bad bruise. I gotta do the doctor thing tomorrow...John will take me. It kills me because I was just starting to get a little active again. Well it's just a small delay.


Nan, I'm sending you tons of pixie dust and love that Paul lands a good one very, very soon.

Everyone, I would love to stay and chat, but the Vicodin is kicking in and I'm going to lay down. Usually I take a half....tonight I took a whole....it HURTS!!!

Oh my gosh Deb, sorry to hear this! Hoping when I catch up I'll have read a post from you saying whether it's broken or not.

EEEEK! That is freaky, get that mouse Holly

I KNOW!!! I'm trying! It's grossing me out!

Morning All!
Found ya......just checking in to say hi.

I have been so swamped lately at work, but it is all paying off. I am in the process of building up another business and over the last few weeks my hard work for the last year is starting to pay off!!!! In a nutshell, that means that Scott and I can finally start to breathe financially!

It has been a really rough few years for us in more ways than one....and for some reason with Rosh Hashanah this year, I felt that a big change was coming...sure enough the year 5770 is going to be wonderful! I hope it brings lots of great changes for everyone else as well (since I know I am not the only one who has had struggles over the past years).

Hope everyone is doing great! Hugs to you all....sorry I can't keep up here more often, but hopefully after 1/1/10 my life will slow down and I can start to have more fun!

Have our B2B booked for 2011, but just can't seem to get excited about it yet or start planning....maybe in 2010 I will.

Planning our WDW vacations...hopefully 1/10 and 10/10....anyone else going to be there?????

Have a great weekend. It's another home Hawks game (Ken....are you betting against us again? Just checking) hoping that this week they actually remember to show up and play!

Good to hear things are moving in the right direction, congrats!!!!

I'm exhausted!!

I was too! We didn't even leave the house today. It was a relaxing day at home, watching TV and doing lots of cleaning.

 

[HollyTyler]

Holly....did I miss something, do you not have the guina pigs any more? Or did you upgrade cages, so you are selling the original ones?

....oops, gotta go shift a load from washer to dryer and start another...

.

No, we still have the guinea pigs. The cages I sold were smaller ones we used when we first got them and have since upgraded to just one large cage.

You have entertainment!!!

Hi Everyone!!!!
I just wanted to let you know... that THIS is our 32nd thread!!!!!! (counting the before cruise ones... 17 before & 15 after... )

What motor mouths we are...

Actually it is a testiment to our friendship.

The before threads were done with alot of help from the people who were there mostly to make plans, etc. But it is the rest of us that keeps the story going... We have gone through just about everything together from births to deaths to all in between...

People come and people go... but it is those who have bonded and become family who are on here now...

& I for one wouldn't want to be anywhere else...

I agree! Now who's friend enough to come get this mouse for me!

Back from a horrible Sunday and a crappy experience with a member.

I had started a getting started session when a woman and her daughter came flying into the room, interrupted and wanted to ask me a "quick question." I told them I would be happy to answer their question after I was done, and I was with a member.

She kept pressing about her "quick question." I asked her what it was, and she said, pointing at her daughter, "she's been doing this for a month and hasn't lost any weight."

I told her that I'd be happy to speak to them afterwards, but out of courtesy to the member (new member, who arrive on-time, even early) that I would so so after I finished the session so I could give them my attention.

She stormed out and said, "Well I think you should be courteous to members who come and not make them wait 30 minutes."

What so of quick answer did she want? A or B or C?

A = Your daughter is obviously stupid and can't stop eating

or

B = Your daughter is seriously ill seek a doctor immediately

or

C = Your daughter is a genetic anomaly. Are you sure she's yours and you were not abducted by aliens who implanted you with an alien fetus?

That's about the best quality I could have mustered for a "quick answer."

That question was a 30 minute discussion it itself.

I get so upset with the rudeness sometimes. Plus the rudeness to the member I was with. Someone must have forgotten to call me before I left the house this morning to let me know that the center of the universe would be coming to my meeting.

For the most part I am very caring with my members, but this sort of rudeness really upsets me. Plus when a member does not want to own their results and for some reason wants me to own it.

I was really extremely upset by the entire incident.

What a crappy way to start a Sunday. I hate when people are so rude! I wouldn't have been able to be nice to her like you were.

I need to know what to have with the yams in booze

I told you I'm not looking at C-town for Tday right? My nephew graduates first weekend in Nov. and only 4 tickets to it, so I'm not even invited

Yes, you told me you won't be in Chicago

Too bad, you would have liked Thanksgiving dinner at Eastwood Manor, imagine a meal like the one's we had on the ship, only louder and rowdier.

I'm sure it will happen, just not this year, we'll make it happen

 

[BubbaGrump]

HOLLY...sent you a pm on how to catch the mouse.

 

[BubbaGrump]

Whats up Nana???

 

[nskjerven]

why can't ya share the catching advise with US

We love gross out stuff here

I'm playing Bejewelled on FB, if I can keep my laptop away from my son who likes it as much as me if not more

 

[BubbaGrump]

I can share. No big secret or nuthin'. ....... Hey Holly, are you using the old fashioned traps. If you are , this works EVERY time! Put just a dab of peanut butter on the trap and.....WHACK!....every time I tell ya! But then you have to pick up the dead mouse and throw it away.

Yup, that's what I'm doing, even with peanut butter. I have a neighbor who has volunteered to come dispose of the dead mouse for me.

I think this mouse is just stubborn. I keep moving the traps to where I see him. I guess I need to just get a whole bunch more and put them all over. Damned sneaky rodent. Maybe I need to be more patient too, but I want him gone NOW.
