Hey Groupies,

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Happydinks- Good Luck with the job search.

HL- Good luck with your December waitlist for VWL and passing ROFR for your add on.

WELCOME WIRKI

Maria - Congrats on your BLT add on. I am currently fighting the add on bug myself.

Good ol Gal - Glad to hear you had such a great time at our home away from home.

Was that woods view?

Yes woods view, pool side.

No news yet, but it's only been a week. I do have other news though that I know you'll sympathize with. My horse is lame. He's been off & on since Wed. of last week. I thought it might just be he was sore from doing things he hasn't been asked to do before. He was ok on Sat. & Sun., but lame again today. I suspect it could be a hock issue. Not what I want to hear right now. The vet will be out tomorrow.

Oh no! I can completely sympathize - I've been going thru lameness issues with my 18yo paint for the last year. He has arthritis but also keeps getting out of hip alignment which is causing problems. There may be something more but that's what the vet and chiro have come up with. And today I find DH's horse has a good cut on his LH hoof - from kicking in his pen. At least he doesn't seem to be lame but I haven't done more than watch him walk.

I hope that it just ends up being soreness or a strain so he feels better soon and you can keep on riding and showing!

HL - How did the vet visit go? Hope he is okay. Yours too Kathy! Here is some moose dust for your kids.

Hi DLI! Thanks for checking! Our boy still seems to be walking ok and is ornery as ever. He doesn't like me picking up that leg though to look at the hoof so I know it hurts a bit. Just hoping he doesn't pick up an infection or get more of a crack and we should be ok. DH is busy working with little time to ride right now so Sam should have good chance to heal.

How did things go with Shi horselover?

Thanks for the good wishes. I guess it was a good news/bad news visit. The good news is it was not his hocks. The bad news is it was a stifle problem, but not just on the RH as I suspected. The vet said it was LH & RH. He got all tranqued up & then the vet inject both sides. Poor baby. I hate to see them all drugged up like that. He was leaning his head against me & looked so sad. But on the bright side this should take care of the problem. His vet wants to me to work him every day for the next 10 days so he doesn't stiffen up & then have the pain set in. My summer leaser showed up to ride him for me this afternoon & apparently he wanted no part of that. She called me & said he was wild as could be & she's not afraid of much so he must have been bad. Hopefully that was just because he had a really bad morning & has been stuck inside for the last day & 1/2. Who knows what I'll find when I go there tomorrow. I thought raising kids was hard!

Kathy - Sending some moose dust your way for your guy. No infection & a fast recovery!

Oh my god, Granny is right... I am Sid,

So my in-laws are in town for Rizzo the Rats graduation. My In-laws are wonderful people; unfortunately they did not have a happy marriage. Since Divorce was not an option for a lot of their generation, they stayed miserably married for 20 years. When the finally got divorced it left a lot of hard feelings.
To put it politely my In-laws hate each other with nuclear capability.

Luckily for me, my sister in law is a very smart cookie, envisioning the horror of separate holidays & vacations she played the one “card” no one wants to be accused of using. Yep, she played the “Grandchildren” card. She informed them, that she was not spending Christmas, thanksgiving and summer vacations bouncing back and forth and listening to snips about the “ex”. They could all damn well get a long for a few hours or it would be 2099 before any one clapped eyes on the grandkids. Well, this left them one option: Out do the other in the gift giving department, they've been "one upping one another for 10 years. Now most parents only have to worry about their kids asking for a pony or millions of video games but when underneath your kids 8th grade graduation picture it say “most likely to be an evil genius” you tend to keep a closer eye.
Sid mentioned to his grandparents that Rizzo will have 3 trips to Disney this year and he’s only going to be able to go once with the family and that’s when I sold my soul to the devil:

MIL: You know, I’ve been thinking of taking the family to DW for Christmas this year.
FIL: Actually, didn’t you say you guys own a time share? I’ve been looking into buying one from the Marriott but Disney sounds good, that way I can take the boys every summer.
MIL: Eliza, weren’t you trying to get a room at the new BLT? Maybe that will be a good Christmas gift. How does that work?

Well by this time me & Sid look like this

I’m slipping the kid 20 bucks underneath the table to ratchet up the sad/pitiful look, I'm casually mentioning that they could probably get a great deal on WLV resale and “the old guy” is rummaging through the closet looking for the gun with the silver bullets in it.

I think I've just pimped my son out for some BLT points.

 

[DiznyDi]

Too funny Eliza!

 

[horselover]

OMG Eliza! You do what you gotta do to get those BLT points!

 

[horselover]

Kat4Disney - please note my new avatar! Cute isn't he?! I'd love to see some pics of your guys.

Oh my word Liza that is awesome!!!!

He is so pretty! Glad that the news wasn't as bad as it could have been! (I had to ask DD what a stifle problem is!)
Kathy I hope your baby's crack heals okay and quickly!

Went to see Up again last night!!! Sure hope to get to do the character meet and greet in Sept.

 

[Good Ol Gal]

we are finally home back in Ohio and miss VWL already We left VWL at 6am on Monday and got back here to OH at 10:15pm. Long drive, but at least we got to go to the MK one last time on Sunday night.

We're blessed that we'll be back for Christmas so I get to start counting again

We played the family trivia game at the pool for the very first time and it was alot of fun. We got stumped on two of the questions!

OMG - in the dark depths of looking for my next job - I read this and bust out laughing! Eliza - ya gotta write a book - either that or go on comedy tour! You'd make a fortune as a stand up (and wouldn't have to be concerned with cut hours!)

eliza -

Great episode for the tv show you are going to do about the lives of the VWL ladies.

horselover - beautiful horse!

Hope all the groupie horses who are hurt/ill get well soon!

Muushka - Hang in there on the job hunt. Sorry to hear you didn't get any word yet. Hope they are just slow to decide. Would be nice if they let you know.

DLI - hope you get to meet the UP characters on your trip. I would like to see that movie again. May take my son to see it when he is home next week.

Good Ol Gal - Welcome home and glad you had a safe & fun trip. Never tried the pool trivia--that sounds like fun! Yay for planning a Christmas trip.

Congrats to all the groupies who did add ons. We just completed our BLT add on too. I have to eat my words now that I wouldn't want to stay there. I liked it much better in person and my kids loved it. We all agreed we would like the lake view best.

Ooooo I like it! The Real Housewives of VWL! It has a nice ring to it! Sign me up!

Thanks guys. the only thing "the old guy" & I can figure out is that we are some sort of late, late, late show for heaven. Whenever the Angels get tired of dealing with Iraq, Iran & politicians in Argentina (ok that one's got even me baffled) they say "hey lets mess with Sid & Rizzo"

I'll start working on a theme song.

Horse lover, the horse is gorgeous.
Welcome back Good ole girl, glad your trip was awesome. I've got 4 more days to work over (I mean work on) the In-laws.
