Well, it's Friday/almost Saturday-----
how's everyone?? good/bad/indifferent??
Not much going on at my end. I worked this afternoon into tonight and just got home a little while ago. Work was work. Nothing special--no crazy clients to speak of, no drama, no strange brazilian waxing stories (insert smilie with hand over mouth). Those stories will have to wait until our cliqueless meet.
Donna--I know you are starting your vacation already, spending the night in my neck of the woods (just call me Al Roker)--near Lambert airport, but I just wanted to thank you for the lovely breakfast and being so generous with your lottery winnings. I was not able to partake in the festivities this morning but I enjoyed breakfast for dinner--or late night snack and might I say it was light as air and oh so yummy. Even better that is was calorie free.
Again, have a wonderful and safe trip and know that we are thinking about you. Can't wait to hear about it when you get back. We'll miss you.
P.S. I wanted to add that I always listen to Sarah Brightman (complete and utterly opera--told ya I have an eclectic taste in music) when I clean--to the point that one time my mom called and I didn't have time to turn the music down and she said "oh, are you cleaning?" What gave her the first clue?? (did I just admit that I cleaned??--I meant when the little maidies clean they listen to Sarah--their cleaning music of choice)
MImom--have a good trip to Illinois. Be safe.
P & PD that you have heard from DH.
Good weekend to you and talk to you Monday.
Amber--WHAT is going on?? Sounds like a bit of trouble on the homefront. I agree, sometimes homeownership can be a pain in the booty but then I just keep thinking of the investment part of it. Whatever--tell me that when I feel like the house is falling apart around me.
You can have a partially new (used maybe 10 times) lawnmower that is sitting outside in my garage. The oil needs to be drained because I don't know what the *&^$%$ I am doing and just kept adding oil because it would not start and I thought it just needed more (and more and more) oil.
It just kept smoking and finally my neighbor came out (who NEVER talks to anyone) and says to me and I quote "Your going to kill yourself like that -that't carbon monoxide." Well, alrighty then--I turned it off, sullenly put it back in the garage and have never touched it since. That was two years ago. My cousin says the oil needs to be drained. I am not meant to cut the grass anyway because my ex used to say that I used to cut pretty patterns in the lawn. Needless to say, I hire a service now.
Try to have a better weekend.
Linda--
Your story made me cry. Why do people have to be this way. I am so glad you got out of that relationship. You and your ds deserve so much better than that and it sounds like you have found it. Thank goodness. You are a lucky girl. But I have a feeling you know this already. Your relationship with your DH and DS is very touching.
Thank you again for your thoughts on the job situation.
Oh my goodness--just read about your ex-and his lawyer witch. How dare they. Good luck.
DznyFan--Yay, DD is coming home. I'm sure you will tend to her every wish and need. Holey moley, that is an expensive A/C problem. I'm sure she appreciates it though. Have a good weekend and try to relax, huh??
Nicole--Prayers for your grandma. Hope her surgery went well and she is feeling alright--or as good as to be expected. Keep us posted on her recovery.
Lyzziesmom--What's up with these jerky men?? No offense Pozey--I am sure you are lovely.
I am so sorry this happened to you. Linda's story does give us hope, though. If you find a good man, ask him if he has a brother and I will do the same for you.
Glad you're feeling a little better today. I am sure tomorrow will even be more promising.
Oh, and BTW--poop, poop and more poop.
Ashley--No worries--we're good at lending an ear.
or two.
MnParrothead--great name. Jump in anytime. All are welcome.
Lyzziesmom said:
Or we can just ramble incoherently... that's lots of fun too!
WHO RAMBLES?????? Certainly not I.
DznyFan and Lyzziesmom-- Little secrets, have we??
We won't ask where.
Oh, and Amber too??
YM--
Glad you enjoyed the ode to the '70's. My sister, our neighbor girl and I used to play "Charlie's Angels" down our basement. It was fixed up with groovy wood paneling, a wetbar, pool table, big couch pit--do you see it in your head?? I was always Kelly (Jaqueline Smith), my sis was Chris (what's her name ---------not Farrah----the other blonde---it'll come to me, maybe) and the neighbor girl was Sabrina (Kate Jackson). We used to cook up these scenerios and play them out to catch the "bad guys". I guess you could say this was the beginning of my Stephanie Plum days.
"hello angels, this is Charlie"
Cheryl Ladd.
Say the word on a WDW girls trip----Pozey may want to join us--we'll let him.
Oh, April, dear---where are you sweetpea?? Everything okay??
My, you guys keep my up waaay too late!!!! I have to work in the morning. I supppose Donna can't pitch breakfast out of the plane, can she??
Au Revoir
I could go to the mall and browse around or something
your daughter will be home soon!! I'm sure our kids have been spoiled by the crystal clear water from our cruises 
It sounds like a good car for her though. 
what a dumb *itch!!! She thinks she's so smart b/c she's an attorney... but I can't wait to get in front of the judge and beat her at her own game!!! That just made my weekend!!!
This morning I have a VERY special breakfast planned! (You can even have our cyber-breakfast if you don't get up until noon!) I am going to pretend I won the lottery. After contacting my accountant and actually having the money in my bank account, I am going to make reservations at the Polynesian. I have the required amount of rooms reserved(castle view, of course) and we are eady to have our first breakfast at 
(just kidding...hope you get your car working soon)!
My DH has been in the reserves for 20...they are special! He will probably retire in the next couple of years (from the air force...he has to work his other job another 20 years 
What were you doing up at this hour...! Hope you didn't have to work the early shift.
