Wild Turkeys and Dancing Banana Heads Cruise 11/25/06

[DutchsMommy]

Well I have to go and start marking red sauce for company tomorrow.

Hey Denise - what is red sauce? When I read that I was thinking either katsup (likely not ) or maybe spagetti sauce?

Hope all is well with everyone - really busy here and I am SO tired - didn't sleep well last night so am looking forward to my bed tonight. Boy - what a party animal I am LOL.

Hey Sarah....we're less than 100 days out! Don't you think its time to start your party training??? We can't have our friends getting tired too early in the evenings!!
NO WARM MILK FOR YOU....up. Up....UP!!!

(confession: I'm no party animal....a couple of margaritas and I'm a sleepy puppy)

Enjoy....

Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!
This has been a rough week for us.
On Monday morning I was walking down the hall at work and suddenly found myself flat on my face.
I had enough adrenaline to get up and make it back to my desk (before blubbering like a fool) I sprained my ankle and bruised both my knees.
Luckily DH works at the same hospital I do, so he came right over and we decided to go home since I was in quite a lot of pain.
So I am at home with my foot up and ice on it, and DH decides to water our one sad little plant... He gets up on a chair, the chair goes out from under him, he hits the table with his chest on the way down, then lands on top of the chair. He gets a HUGE welt on his leg, re-injures his bad shoulder and gets the breath knocked out of him.
So we are the walking wounded this week (its really kind of funny... NOW!)
We need a vacation only 95 more days until we head to the POFQ
Have a great weekend!!

Hello...working on my 500th post...so bare with me..

Sarah: yes the "red sauce" is spaghetti sauce.

Mutt: Well we will have to keep you away from those Margarita's...we dont want the "life" of the party falling asleep at 10pm.

Athene: Wow I hope you and your DH recover quickly. Take care...

Well take care...I still haven't stared on my sauce yet. I did some cleaning then needed to go shopping to pick up a new rug and towels for one of my bathrooms. I cant belive DD leaves Sunday morning back to Colorado then she will be leaving 2 weeks after that for Iraq. As much as I think I'm ready for this deployment, I'm not. This will be a long year with her gone over there and the "dogs".

Have a good afternoon

Later Denise

 

[cruisemutt]

Hey Denise....I can't promise you I'll be the life of the party...or that I'll stay clear of the margaritas...but I'll try and be good. Too bad you weren't closer as far as your red sauce goes... we're going to have a bumper crop of roma tomatoes and they make great sauce. This is our second year of having a garden and our second year of canning. I hope we get enough to last out the winter. I don't suppose you'd care to divulge any of your secrets in regards to your sauce, would you? I can come up with a pretty decent pasta sauce for an italian-trained polish boy but I'm always looking for new tips and tricks.
Anyways....off to the showers

and dinner for us....
Enjoy the evening gang....THE WEEKEND IS HE-AHH!!!! (the southern accent was for you, Bob---did I do it right?)
Enjoy!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Athene,

I am blowing lots of

for both of you!!! have a quick recovery.

Kathy

 

[LindaBabe]

Oh, Poor Feenie & DH! HOW did you fall walking down the hall?! Mr. Safety needs to get after dh though - standing on a chair!!!!

Tigger, we live near Albany - you know? UPSTATE! lol

Mutt? Do you have a freezer? Freezing tomatos is a LOT easier than canning. Peel 'em or not. Place on cookie sheet. freeze solid. scrape off into big ziplock bags and stash in the freezer. Ready for sauce? Pull out as many as you need and toss 'em in the pot.

Happy Friday!

 

[pgfour]

Good evening all nana heads & wild turkeys!

Shows how we exciting we are -- posting at 8:30 on a Friday night!!!

Shell -- love the turkeys!! I knew you'd come through. No matter what Bob says, I know you work hard!!!!! (Who cares if it's on the Dis Boards!)

I am having a post-dinner glass of wine - working on my tolerance so I'm ready for the cruise! So all you "light weights" better be in training over the next 98 (hic!) 97 days!!

Feenie & DH -- hope you are feeling better soon!

No big plans for the weekend -- just getting caught up on housework and making an attempt to relax while summer's still here. Denise, you make me tired just reading about your whirl wind of activity!!!

Talk to ya later!

Cheri

P.S. I'll also be going for the "poverty" outfit! I'm spending all my money on the spa, drinks, and Palo (maybe not in that order!)

 

[TIGGER41681]

Good Saturday Morning to You All,

Athene: I hope you and DH have a speedy recovery!!

Wendy: My prays are with you and your dad.

LindaBabe: That's funny because I live upstate NY too. I live about two hours from Albany. I live in Orange County NY.

Well today DH went to a card show. That's his hobby collecting basball cards.DS and I are going to head to the Mall to get a few things then it is off to the pool !! Tomorrow the in-laws are coming for dinner. I am going to Chicken Francese. It's my mother-in-laws b-day. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend and talk to you all tomorrow.

97 days till we sail away

Let's go Yankees!!

[cruisemutt]

Athene?
BE CAREFUL!!!! We want live, healty people with us (walking wounded cant dance at the POTC deck party.
Linda?
Yes, dear...we do have freezers in Ohio...we we're the first of our wagon train to get one (the injuns are all so jealous).
I will try your fancy dancey freezer thing, though...sounds like a good idea and a lot easier than canning.
Wendy?
Again, good luck with your dad.
ok....the wife is sitting here monitering my message so I better get a move-on.
Enjoy the weekend, kids~

kathy

 

[pgfour]

Good morning! The weekend is FINALLY here!

Have a great day wild turkeys & nana heads!!

G'Day Banana Heads :

I just spent about 4 hours cleaning ... UGH! But it was rainy here this morning so I had no chance to spend my day in the sun. Anyhoo, I'm taking a break from completing the rest of my chores. There's a new DSW that just opened on the other side of town and I'm SO EXCITED! I have to visit them, make a "deposit" into their bank account so that I can support the American way. Makes me feel patriotic.

Athene ... hope you're both doing better! Should we all bring some bubble wrap with us on the cruise so we can take care of you?

Oh, and Cheri?? Thanks for the support!!

Have a good one!

 

[Dixielady908]

Good evening everyone.....

Well all my company has left for the evening. I am tired. Cleaning and preparing all week, then of course all the last minute cleaning in the morning..then the cleaning up afterwords.....why do I even bother having parties.......too much cleaning But everything went well good food and of course good company.....yes we even talked about the cruise how could we not .

So hope everyone is having a good evening...

Later
Denise

 

[LindaBabe]

Evening!

We helped friends move today - boy did I get grubby - THEN he wanted to take us out to dinner. Fortunately, there was a warehouse store next to where we stopped for tea - I found a shirt for $10 so at least I could a little clean.

Mutt, please don't be offended! i didn't mean to imply that y'all hadn't gotten to the 21st century - just - well not everybody has more than the freezer on their fridge - and if you're putting up maters by the bushel, that would get full pretty quick. BTW, these look pretty but don't try them on a salad - they are strictly for cooking after freezing cause they thaw to mush.

Shell - is DSW shoes? WOW did I FIND SHOES! That warehouse I mentioned above was having a 50% off shoe sale - but I couldn't find any in my size. (whine) They had Avia, Adidas, pretty shoes, dressy shoes, sandal shoes.oh my.

Have a good night, all.

 

[cruisemutt]

C'mon Linda.... I dont get offended that easy....hehe...geez. You should know me better than that! (I'm a fun mutt...ask Bob)

You and Woo will have so much to talk about...she has the same zest, zeal, enthusiasm, mania, obsession, lunatic behavior regarding shoes. She hunts them....slowly, carefully and then goes in for the kill--its the sheer pleasure of it for her. (ask her about the dress shoes I got to go with my suit for the cruise--she never tires of talking about it).

We FINALLY went and saw POTC II. We both thought there was a lil too much cgi but all in all, it was a worthy effort.

Anyways....enjoy the rest of the weekend.

 

[Dixielady908]

OK Mutt....here's the thing. I can't even get into page two of the smilley facey thingys....and I just noticed on your siggy the banana and the island/shark where do you get these????? And why cant I open that darn second page????


Denise

 

[pgfour]

Good morning Nanas & Turkeys!

Yes, Denise, I too am in "smilie envy"! I wish I could get those cute turkeys Shell posted last week!

If you have pop-up blocker on your computer, you may have to temporarily allow pop-ups so you can view the other smilies on the second page. There's probably a simpler way, but I'm pretty basic when it comes to computers.

Looks like a nice day here today. Will try to get something accomplished other than dreaming of the cruise!

Have a "Magic"al day y'all!

Cheri
(Couldn't submit a post without !)

 

[cruisemutt]

Temper, temper, Denise.....geez, now that you've finished with your guests, you sure have a lot of energy!!

I can't reveal ALL of my secrets! Woo would never forgive me. Its a married, buttkissing thing....

Tell ya what....I'll have it out with her in true Disney Pirate fashion

and MAKE her agree to give up the "fruits" of our labors.
Best I can do.....
But seriously....the only thing I can come up with in regards to you getting to page two is you have a firewall with a pop up blocker preventing that window to open....could be your browser or maybe a virus program (McAfee or Norton)...OR your IP software may have a blocker attached and running. Do you have troubles with any other pop up windows not working?
Any of you folks computer saavy? Lets help Denise here.....
Have a great Sunday, everyone...
(dont be mad at me Denise,....I'm really not a bad mutt)
