Sorry Alan... I didn't mean to really throw you out... especially since I didn't *really* throw Pam in a hole. But if you want to leave me....

Pam, glad you found the costume... I am sure your DD will be so happy!

Hush it, Kimmar

 

[alabamaalan]

Miss Pam, I've got them deboned and ready for market.

Lainey is granting me work release to help in the kitchen as long as I'm back for massage time. Orli and Tony just don't last

Hmmm...if I help hunt and gather, will you sell the dolls?

 

[Pam]

Hmmm...if I help hunt and gather, will you sell the dolls?

She's saving them for when she has her "own little girls." Which I hope is not for many, many years!

I'm impressed - I will hire you full time!

 

[alabamaalan]

Why thank you Pam. I'll keep a good edge on the axe.

Hmmm...working full time in the kitchen and serving as Lainey's cabana boy...

Who said Club Med is relaxing?

Naturally I am happy with both duties.

 

[Meriweather]

Wal-Mart Some people!!

Yay, Pam, glad you got the Sleeping Beauty. I was just going to ask you if you wanted me to look tomorrow when I'm there.

yep...we have the American Girl dolls too....I think 4 or 5 of them....but they are DD's....most of the BaB things are mine!

Well, Lily, they will be Pumpkin Walnut cookes when I get to them

I need to go pass out a bunch of names of the holiday recipe exchange now....see you when I come up for air!

 

[helenabear]

Don't worry Alan, I will go easy on you now that you have a second job... right now I would prefer a gentle massage anyway

Pam, he is good, isn't he?

I hear you on the walmart thing, Nancy

Cookies sound good, send some my way

Just finished cleaning up from dinner and thought I'd pop on here for a bit. I'm sooo tired. And my tummy hurts.

No major damage to Julian's teeth. The tooth that is loose is a baby tooth, so no problem there. Just gotta wait for it to come out. He did chip one tooth, but its not bad and the dentist said they can fix it very easily. Thank goodness. He will get that done in 2 weeks. Dr. wants to make sure his lip is healed and fine before he does it.

Jonathan needs glasses. Got them all ordered, only to have them call awhile ago and tell us they are discontinued in the color we wanted. So, they ordered another color and we are going to see if we like that one. If not, we'll get a new pair. The glasses were a fortune!

Got my new Duran Duran CD (with DVD!) and am a happy camper. Also got the Greatest Hits Duran CD that I ordered from Amazon last week. Listening to it right now. *sigh*


A potluck? Oooh! Sounds fun!

Hi Pammy! Good to see you!!

 

[CrazyBoutDisney]

Evening, all! Just dropping in quickly to say hi, leave a big and mad, mad love to ya'll. Not subbing in the other bell choir tonight--I'm playin' granny again!! The twins and their sister will be dressing my BaBs in their Halloween costumes and getting them ready for Trick or Treat!! I have the camera packed too I'm hoping for a new siggie pic for the season.

Hi Pam!!! Glad you found your way back to us!! Now, if we could only find Jeannie!!

I'm off!!!

 

[helenabear]

Sherry, hope your stomach is feeling better soon!!! I agree with you on glasses... that's why I've held off on getting a new pair. I really should as my last pair is rather beat up, but meh... maybe some day soon.

Awww Bethie, I hope you had a good time doing that tonight!!!! back atcha

Fever seems to broke... now I am just stuffy and coughing... icky gaggy cough too Maybe tomorrow I'll try that spaghetti again

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Hey there everyone!

Beth, oh you get to be having such fun! I am certain your pics will be great to see.

Elaine, glad you are feeling better. This is what you said, no?

I am just stuffy and coughing... icky gaggy cough too

Doesn't sound exactly better to me though.

Sherry, sorry that you seem to have some sort of bother. I bet all the action of the last few days hasn't helped you much. Take it easy for the rest of the night. Wait! The night is almost over. Oh dear, rough being a mom with those young ones to tend and not feel well. Hope they get it and give ya a bit of a break.

Glad the teeth are ok, and yup gla$$e$ are co$tly.

Nancy, that cookie sounds tasty. Have you ever made them before? I think I might ask for your recipe if you would share.

Pam, I'm with you about those grand babies. Waiting for a long bit here I hope. Roadkill looks in good shape that Alan is working with you. How neat he is!

Alan, you mean you aren't relaxing in this wonderful place here?

Kimmar, what a hoot. YC will probably pay you $$ for that great idea.

John, meet in Dublin huh. Probably have to pass on this one. I guess I need to get to the meet board more often.

Getting ready to be done for the evening. Seems like a long day/week and we're only mid way. Hmpf.

 

[Poohnatic]

Evening yayas!

So, it's sounding like our next location should be the Yaya Build A Bear Den, lol!

Todd, hope the rest of the camping trip went well. Yikes on Sister and BIL arguing!

John, yet another meet...you are the DISmeet King. Too bad I can't get up there.

Lainey, feeling any better? You can have some cake, we've got lots of that leftover. Oh yeah, and my st louis ribs from dinner .

Nancy and Pammycakes, wow, your girls had that many AG Dolls? I get sticker shock and am happy I have boys. They're cheap-so far.

Sherry, I'm with you on those glasses. We're on the third pair with Neil in 10 months. Not cheap. Insurance at work is going to change and with it, we get new lenses every year, and frames every other. Looking forward to not shelling out so much!


Bethie, so no dingaling? Glad you are such a good surrogate granny and have BaB's to occupy those girls.

Tomorrow will be busy. I now volunteer at the school library on Wed mornings, the we have Neil's doctor and need to bring mom boxes to pack up. They got the house, they close on Nov 15th! My stepdad is sooo excited, and this is a Ben Stein kinda guy, lol.

Karen, off to the post office in the am. Thank you!

Off to get some z's...chat back atcha later...

Pictures! Thanks Amanda.

Elaine hope you feel better soon.....I hope no fever means the start of the mending process.

Yep....been the glasses, contacts route for way too many years DH's are actually the worst since wants the bendy ones

Well, I think boy toys are costly too.....we always spent the same on both of them.....and at least DD has kept hers

Lily...the cookies were okay. I'm always willing to share recipes. I would add more spice and more nuts though (and I would add chocolate chips....but I would add chocolate chips to almost anything )

Pam--the bikini person wouldn't move for anyone to take pics..

Now to go see the pics...

 

[dizneenut]

Morning!

Staying home today and vegging.

Great pics, Amanda.

Nancy, DS got the bendy glasses.

 

[helenabear]

Morning all... quick hi!

LOL, Lily... feeling better in that the fever seems to be gone (forgot to check this AM, but it feels like it), so I am getting better instead of worse. The cough thing... eh... at least that kind of a cough keeps me from eating too much

Mmmm.... cake.... I can always go for cake Good luck with all you have to do today, Suzanne!

Quickly zipped through the pics and I loved them Amanda! Thanks for posting the link!

Todd, I think Alan will be disappointed that you didn't get any shots of them but pity they wouldn't get out of the way!

Nancy, does your DH like the bendy style of glasses? They seem neat, but I still worry that I would wind up killing them (very harsh on glasses here!)

Sherry, enjoy the day of vegging.

Really ought to go now... I'll see y'all later!

Jared stayed home from school. Has a tummy ache and sore throat. Hope he's not coming down with something.

 

[alabamaalan]

My youngest is home with Strep Throat today.

Todd, as sad as I am that Amanda did not include the rude bikini clad waterfall hogger, I must say that you have a beautiful family!

 

[believe]

Oh no...Mandy had a sore throat yesterday, hopefully she won't be coming home worse.

I do have a picture with the girls backside...I can't post till I get home, since the picture is on my home computer.
