Welcome to the YaYa's: YYotC at Castaway Cay

[dizneenut]

Party went off without a hitch. All the boys had a blast.

Suzanne, DH also has Plantar Faciitis. Working 10 hour shifts is killing his feet. Our family dr. is referring him to a specialist to see what to do next.

Amanda, sorry about the SIL probs again. I was in Pioneer Girls for about 4 years.

Hey Tony!! Can't believe how big your DS has gotten.

Paula, we got Junebug from the library. Might try to watch it tomorrow.

 

[Kama89]

Howdy! Wassup?

Elaine got Lucky twice! Woooo! Lucky you! Get good back pocket fortunes?

Hey Tony! 4GBLC... Four Goobers boo... eh, I give up.

I need new cookware! What's the best flat bottomed stuff out there ya'll?

A temp. of 104?! Yikes! What'd the doc have to say Tara?

Snork! Put pot on stove, leave room. Yep, that's basically my secret recipe for burning things. Works good too! There's a show about boiling water?! No way! LOL!! I need to see that!! I could TEACH that! Sketty Betty taught me how to boil stuff. I'm killer when it comes to boiling.

Glad to hear your foot is treating you well today Suzanne!

Wah, super mom kebabs! We used to call Super Mom feats, Mamamagic.

Paula, you're a sweet mom! Picking our battles is a good thing to do. Will the plaster come out at all?

Alan, glad to hear Grandmother AA is being well cared for. Hugs and prayers going out to her.

Well, I am a 40 something too. I shop at Macy's a lot, usually in the junior department. A lot of the clothes are too young looking, but if you have plenty of time to poke around, there's some good cute mom stuff too. Petite stuff I usually can't wear... too short most of the time, but then regulars are too long, soooo I wind up wearing heels a lot. Elaine is right, the INC line is a lot of fun to look at. I also shop at Buckle quite a bit.

 

[Poohnatic]

Had my nap. My luck was that both the cell phone and the house phone would ring. Alternated every 20 minutes or so!

INC stuff is good, too. Have a few pairs of those pants mom bought me. She was a HUGE Burdines/Macys fan, so she'd take me there shopping and they had it.

Sherry, I'm in a bind. The foot would be better if I didn't work on my feet, but the vascular issues rule out a desk job. Yet another doctor was perplexed at all the odd stuff I have wrong. He agrees with the cardiologist-find a geneticist! There's a decent website out there www.heelpain.com that recommended the icing. Doctor also suggested foot stretches-take a belt and pull the toes up 15 times, three times a day.

Oh yeah, me no dancey at weddings no more. I did the electric slide (which is about my speed, dance wise) and my leg and food were screaming about a minute into the song. But I wanted to dance so bad that I put up with it. Earned some high fives from some coworkers, though

Back to the dealership on Friday. The person who set up the interview neglected to tell the managers at that location that I was coming! The first five minutes I got the vibe that the guy felt I was interrupting his day, then he got over it. Perhaps he was thinking the same thing Ed did when I got the job with him "Girls don't last here. Why is she even bothering? " Although Ed also thought that I was cute, I doubt this guy did, lol!

Oh, and Neil wants his kababs tomorrow. That's okay, they can marinate another day. So Paula, dinner's at 7 tomorrow. If you're coming, bring some shortcake-I've got the strawberries and cream!

Lets see what to call me, hmmmmmm. Bill won't work for me, so don't call me Bill. Lets see I always liked the name Tony. THAT'S IT..... Call me Tony. I love that name.

So any takers on what my screen name means...

This is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo Close!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[isyne4u]

A temp. of 104?! Yikes! What'd the doc have to say Tara?

The doc said it is an upper respitory infection that is turning into bronchits So my little guy is on an antibiotic and motrin. The motrin is keeping the fever to about 101. So he is a pretty sick kid. He's funny because he is very *needy* but he doesn't want you to touch him or even get near him. He wants things brought to him and he wants to whine but you can't touch him!! He cracks me up.

Suzanne...everytime I read "icing" your foot I see you with a can of ready spread frosting being slathered all over your foot!! I've cut back on my calories so i think i must be hungry!!

Nancy...sorry i didn't respond sooner about the basket exchange...i don't think i'm in on this one. I'd love to but I spend too much money and right now I need to be spending nothing (like that's happening!) Sorry but I have to disagree with my breathren here....The red is a pretty color but I'm still don't think the box is anything near cute!! But hey as long as Dave likes it...and hey I drove a purple car for a long time...so I guess I can't really talk about cars (but I did love my purple car!!)

Okay, gotta check a couple of other threads that I posted to today and see hwo they are doing!! Back tomorrow!! Keep your fingers crossed that i get Jarrod's speech covered! tomorrow is the meeting and i got the feeling from him teacher that we were making some progress!! I hope so!!

good night gang!

[helenabear]

Boards have been creeping along for me. So I didn't get to post before I left for knitting.

Tony you're killing me, what does it stand for! Though Alan & Tara had great guesses

Suzanne, you just made me glad I do all the cooking. I got what I wanted (All Clad) and Luis can't ever complain. Since I'm rough on my pans, I am happy I got these. I even cut meat in them Best investment... good pans are always that way to me though.
Sorry the dealership today wasn't all that good...

Sherry so glad to hear that the party went well for y'all!

Good luck with Jarrod's speech tomorrow. I hope that it all works for the best. So sorry the little one is so bad off. I know that feeling though. There are times when I am in pain when I am whiny and needy yet don't want to be touched!

No, I didn't get back pocket fortunes!!! Should I go back and demand them?
But yep on the Lucky 2x. I'm wearing one right now (the dk wash that is more casual looking). OMG though, I never spent so much on jeans in my entire life!!!!!

I need to go... Luis is tired and I am somewhat keeping him up. I hope y'all have a great evening and if I missed someone, sorry

 

[Poohnatic]

Tara, poor kid. Not happy at all, and he seemed like he's usually very congenial. Hope the meds work quick.

Sorry Nancy, think I missed it. Count me in for a basket. I think I need to start looking for the yaya surprise now to make sure it leaves my house!

Got my cortisone...doc and pharmacist warned me of mood swings, insomnia and hunger...yippee.

Want to read some more, so I'll be back tomorrow. G'night!

Suzanne

Boards are moving so slow for me....all day long, so I haven't stayed around much.

There won't be a spring basket exchange...sorry, Suzanne. Not enough interest.
EVeryone is too busy....or too poor

Night.

My puppy-wuppy!

 

[believe]

Alan...to bad we are going in a few weekends, otherwise I would try to make the trip in April to the Smokies. My brother, SIL and nephews are going to stay in the chalet with us. What would you like to do in the Smokies? As mentioned the Dixie Stampede is nice, I did it once but wouldn't pay to do it again. Make sure your girls like a whole chicken in front of them. You don't get to choose your food, everyone gets the same thing (soup, chicken, etc) and no utensils. My sister went to the bear Jamboree and loved it, her daughter is 9. The Mill and Applebarn are the best places to eat. If you go to the applebarn, go to the back restaurant. It is family style. We mostly hike. If you want to know about any waterfalls just let me know how far, distance wise, you want to go and I will look them up for you. We have been to many of them. If you want I can pick up some information guides and send them to you.

Tara...hope your son is feeling better today.

Gotta get to work!

 

[helenabear]

Morning all! Boards are still slow here, but not quite as bad as last night. I tried to look at the thread Kimmar posted before I signed off and I gave up. Same with PM replying. I'll do that today and open it now!

Suzanne, I do hope that the shot won't do too much to your moods. The eating more and insomnia wouldn't be fun for me at all!

Nancy, been slow here too... and sorry we're poor. Hopefully we can do one a bit later in the year

What a cute puppy!!!! I wish I could have a dog like that!

I think after seeing all that Amanda, I might have to go down to the Smokies myself some day. I love hiking and nature myself. Did some of that while at my friend's wedding.

Cleaning here today... nothing new. Have a small errand or two to run today as well

 

[Kama89]

Uhhh, Kimmie, ya MAY wanna check out THIS:

How did I miss that!?! Mwahahahaha! Does this mean I'm not twisted after all?! There are others like me!! Wheeee!! Ah! I found my peeps! Today is a good day!!


What kind of purple car Tara? How is Jarrod this morning? Poor little guy.

Kimmar, your poochie is adorable!!! What a face!

No pocket fortunes Elaine? You were robbed maaaan!

Mood swings, insomnia and hunger? Ack! Sounds like me on a good day.

Icing... Me too! Hee!

 

[Meriweather]

Good morning.

Overcast today.
Headed out for errands and a movie.

 

[4GBLC]

Morning Ya's, It is still morning isn't it? Got up with a horrible back ache. Dang it hurts. I need to start Physical Therapy again, but here in this little town the PT's want to make me their miracle child. Ain't gonna happen. Just don't feel like being anyone miracle today.

I need to make an appt for the gimp mobile. My seat feels like it is about ready to come off. Don't want to be cruising down the street and my seat fall off, God wouldn't that be horrible.

Which brings me to a kinda funny thing that happend to me in Oct at WDW. I was watching the MNSSHP Parade with my sister. All of a sudden I gotta go potty real bad. So off I go in search of an accessible potty. I thought I was going down a ramp, but no it was a curb. I knew the day would come when I would tip this damn wheelchair over, but I didn't think it would be at WDW. SLAM!!!!! I kissed the blacktop. People run over to me and this one guy says to me. "Are you ok, here lets stand you up, You can walk can't you" I had to laugh at this point. I think I scared the guy so bad he lost his senses. Anyway to make a long story short he realized what he said and we both busted out laughing. So about 50 guys picked my fat butt up and put me back in the chair. Scared me so bad I forgot about going to the potty.

Nice day here in SE Ohio. Can't wait for those 80 degree hot and humid summer days. I need someone to take me to lunch.

 

[isyne4u]

What kind of purple car Tara? How is Jarrod this morning? Poor little guy.

I had a purple saturn!!

Poor baby is as sick today as he was yesterday. He got the motrin at 4:48 this morning and my mom took his temp at 10:45 (3 minutes earlier than it was time to give him the meds! ) and it was 104.6 . We are now on potty watch for him. He is not eating anything, he doesn't want to drink anything, so He has to give us some sort of urinary output prior to 5 pm today. if he doesn't then its off to the children's hospital for ivs. I did that with one this past year, I really don't want to do it with another one.

Okay, here's a funny for you...I have a kid who was plopped in my room during testing this morning (a deaf kid I used to have), so he asked if he could go on the computer to FunBrain. I told him sure why not. Well, I just looked and he is googling videos of "hot girls on the beach" What makes this so funny is that the kid is what we call "low functioning"...his IQ is right around the mentally handicapped range...so here he is looking for pics of hot girls!! I made him get off the computer!!

Tony...sorry to hear about your spill at the MK. The guy probably felt like I did when my best friend, who has cp and used to walk with crutches..now she is in a motor wheelchair, went splat right in front of me and in my infinte wisdom I looked down at her sprawled on the floor and said, "What did you do?" She looked at me like the idiot I was and replied, "What does it look like I did...I fell!!!!!" I got almost hysterical when I realized how stupid I sounded. That was 25 years ago this coming summer!! I guess we survived!!

Gotta go and do some work!
back later!!

[helenabear]

I see the boards are still crawling

I've been decluttering a bedroom we have and it is taking me forever. My hope is to get it good enough to run the vacuum in there. Yep, it's the infamous spare bedroom that I keep putting off. I want it 80% done today and I should be able to get that. As soon as I finish there, I can bike and take it easy.

Does this mean I'm not twisted after all?! There are others like me!!

yes you are twisted
and the thought of others like you is down right scary

What did the pocket fortunes look like Kimmie? I might have to go back and yell a little for not getting them But oh boy are those jeans comfy. I love the embroidered ones I got, but the ones with a wee bit of lycra are wonderful to wear.

Nancy, enjoy the movie!

Tony, sunny day here, but I am dying for the summer months as well. I am not made for the winter That is too funny about what happened at WDW, I mean itw asn't funny you fell, but I can see that and it would probably have me laughing as well! Good luck with PT... I loved when I went! I hope I never have to go back though

Tara, your poor baby I hope Jarrod is feeling much better soon
Oh as for your kid... I'm snickering... what a sneaky little... twerp

I need to get back to it all or I will lose drive to finish what I want today. Catch y'all later!
