Uggggghhhhh.........it's Monday.......Don't know if it's the weather or uncomfortable chairs, but I feel like that cranky old woman who has a list of complaints and ailments a mile long. Suffice it to say, I hurt, and am eating both Alleve and Motrin just to be able to move.
Spent Saturday making Christmas cards--got about 45 completely done and another 15 are almost done! I plan to get them all addressed and ready to go BEFORE Halloween, too!! Then I will probably forget to pick up stamps and they still won't go out till Christmas Eve!
Sherry, sorry your SIL showed up to help and then ya'll got rained out. Isn't that just typical?! sorry you didn't get to the concert, either. Just one of those days, huh? Hope today is MUCH better for you, in spite of the cold!

RM got a tatoo??!! Sounds very nice!! And now they've "built" ya'll another parking lot office. Good grief! Any idea how much longer it will be before you can get back to 4 walls and air conditioning? Good luck and God bless ya'll for the work you are doing down there. Hope you don't have to put up with any more crazed idiots who plan to "take care" of ya.
Gonzo rocks! Without him and Rizzo, Muppet Christmas Carol would've been a disaster. HEY! A Muppet Lord of the Rings!! Yeah! I'd watch!! Gonzo the Dunedain Ranger... cool!
And I suppose we'd have to let Miss Piggy play Galadriel.

Although I really think she'd do MUCH better as Shelob!!! LOL!!! And, Kimmie, I sure hope Crunk is feeling better today. Give that furbaby a hug for me and keep a big one for yourself.
Yippee and Whoo-hooo, Tina is going back to DL!!! Have you settled on a resort yet?? Glad to hear you are getting at least a few degrees cooler, out there. Can't be fun to be so dang hot all the time!
LOL, I just smile and

when ya'll start talking about football OR Survivor (or any of the other reality or home improvement/makeover shows. Kinda like ya'll do when I talk Star Trek or Stargate!! I admit it, I live in a fantasy world.
Nancy, I have to agree with you--geology is fascinating! It was the 2nd science class in my entire life that I liked!! In fact, the volcano is just about the only thing that makes me want to see Hawaii. Drove thru the original devastation from "your" volcano back in the 80s, either coming or going from our stint in Alaska--I can't remember. Just hope she keeps it to hiccups and doesn't decide to "toss her magma" again!
Lily, my mom always told me it was the negative ions in the air that made me feel depressed whenever it rained. Hope yesterday's sunshine stayed all day and you are back to your cheery self today. Glad that you got to enjoy a clambake with friends--that sounds like a lot of fun!!
Todd and Amanda had a weak moment and now have a new family member!! Glad the street sale was so much fun and the girls have a new furbaby to play with. You didn't buy the street, now, did you?!
LOL, Deena!! You are soooooo right about the fingers thru the cage!!! The hamsters I had wouldn't bother to sniff your hand though. They bit anything that came into the cage! Sorry you are still suffering with the heat down there. We are very close to turning on our furnace, here, like Lil. Just don't want to yet.....
Tara, so sorry you've caught the flu bug! Maybe you'll get lucky and catching it so early in the season means you won't be getting it later on with everybody else. Hope you feel better soon, though.
JRKaren, that was certainly a LONG day you put in yesterday!! Remember, you LIKE the money!! Glad you got lunch and a new camera out of it. Just think, you'll be able to break that puppy in really quick in less than 3 weeks!!!
Laine, your bread thingies sound positively YUMMY!! Kinda like the garlic/cheese biscuits at Red Lobster? So, is your coworker back to shoulder her own load yet? Hope this week is easy on ya. Maybe if you ask nice, Luis will trade parking spots with you a little early? Or you could suddenly remember that it's your turn now?!! And I love your new siggie pic-- just yesterday I was admiring the one Nancy gave me with Thumper on it! I'm organizing my "souvenirs" and pix for scrapping
Hey, Suzanne dropped in too!! Sorry that vein keeps acting up, but sure am glad to hear the clot dissolved! If you have surgery next month, will you be back on your feet and ready to go for the big December Ya Ya Meet at WDW? Hope it all heals fast and leaves you alone!!
TC, that restaurant sounds pretty darn good!! Especially that apple cinnamon thing--one of our favorites! Sorry to hear about Sue's uncle, though. Adding him to the prayer list now.
Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie!!! Where the heck are you, girl??!! Sure hope some irate Subway customer (who thought your survey questions meant you were gonna follow him home with your axe) doesn't have you locked in the slammer somewhere!! Do we need to send Pam out with the bail money??
Speaking of Pam, there's another Ya Ya who has been MIA lately! Deadline, shipping and invoicing should be done for the month, I think. Must be she's so busy with it being roadkill season and all. Undoubtedly, her house is looking a bit like this now.......

to any and all I've missed--that means you, Alan and Kristy! And Jeannie--hope all is well in her little world and she comes back to play with us again soon!!
