Not being mean or anything but it sounds like your mother needs to get a life of her own. Good news the parents went out for the day so hubby and I have a couple of hours to ourselves. Off to write
Yes I saw the stories and its disgusting what they're doing to them. The parents are driving me nuts, I haven't had 5 minutes by myself all day and I could really do with some alone time and chocolate and a glass of wine. Sigh, only 9 days to go . And as for your relatives, quick go on a holiday for Christmas. Oh and chocolate is way better than prozac. Will email you properly one day soon but I'm sick of the parents reading what I'm doing over my shoulder.
Rainey...I checked out the link and the pics are very nice. Even if I don't understand all that technical stuff you mentioned. I'm a point, shoot and hope for the best kinda gal. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't...maybe I should have my glasses on when using my new Nikon since there is no view finder on it!
Boot Camp is basically a training program where they use cardio, core strengthening and weights to whip ones ass in shape. It's available in my area for 4, 8 or 12 weeks and it's Monday through Friday for one hour. I am not exactly looking forward to the agony and pain I'm gonna be in but considering that I have been up and down a ladder and stairs for several weeks, I don't think my legs could hurt much more. And, the same goes for my arms since I've been washing ceilings and walls in the house. Remodeling dust...SUCKS!
Gotta fly...still have baking and some cleaning to do before the clan arrives tomorrow.
Thanks Rainey! Yesterday was a rough day but I'm heading to Bootcamp on the 7th of December for 8 weeks and hopefully having my ass pounded daily will help relieve some of the stress. Gotta take things one day at a time...that's all we can do. As to the rest of the family...they will find out all about Karma one day. I'm off to grab something to eat for lunch here and then back to cleaning walls...there are too damn many in my house!
I'm glad it made you laugh...took me a while to find a good one! Life on my end right now SUCKS and it's not gonna get any better for a while yet. Surgery is set for the 15th of December and there is a whole lot of running around with prep beforehand. I'm off now for some grub and to go over all the paperwork we got today!
Its more like, why are you wearing those clothes they don't suit you, we always watch this tv program and not yours so you have to miss out because we're visitors, you have to drive us around the whole city and visit the museum for the 5th time this year. Oh well only 13 days to go
Hey, thanks for the link the photo's were great. This might be the easiest way to chat over the next two weeks. My parents have only been here two days and they have reverted back to treating me like a child and telling me what to do etc. I just want to throttle them. Sigh.
Thanks for the birthday wishes. I had a birthday dinner, a cake and presents, and all my family here. Was a great birthday. I do keep meaning to email you but in the last week we've had 8 visitors here and I haven't had a moment to myself at all. I know I'm really bad but I did take a look at the photo's of the military tattoo you took
Yeah I just saw the pics, they look amazing! OMG you just said 86 days and that made me freak out even more until I realized the comp isn't till the end of Feb so I can add an extra 25 days. Still freaky though. I might need a beta reader, would you be up for it? Just an idea, let me know.
Wow Rainey, I'm very jealous!!! Did you get any pics?
As for me I'm freaking out. Just received info on the writing competition i'm entering. The end of February isn't that far away, I don't think I can get the book finished in time
Dave was a good guy but left us too young at 51. We tossed back a few in his memory though and that's a good thing.
I am a big support of BCA...I have 2 extended family members who are survivors and 1 who lost her battle many years ago. Early detection is the key...you gotta get squished!
Sleep in large doses is highly overrated and not something that I get anymore...tossing and turning after 3 to 4 hours is pretty much the norm.
Hey!!! I like my lips! Weekend was so/so...last night was good when a group of us from the good old days met up to toast a few to one of our friends who passed away at a very early age.
Just keep taking deep breaths in and exhale slowly...seems to work for me from time to time. On the other matter, I caught that right off the bat and rest assured that I am on top of it. No worries about that at all...ya digg?
Wow i was thinking about you making me do 20 push ups or something for each day I forget to email you. Boy do you have a dirty mind
Been busy writing the damn book but also over the last week I've had a stomach bug so I've been sitting around feeling sorry for myself. Cause I was sick I wasn't allowed to help make the Christmas cake so I just read out the instructions. I did partake in a little of the alcohol, it didn't taste good though
Winter is supposed to return with a vengeance tomorrow with rain, cold weather thunder and lightening should be a pretty interesting day.
I'm tired...again...still...always...what ever! Sounds like your weekend has been eventful. I spent my day yesterday cleaning...toilets...YUCK! Today will be more cleaning and NFL Football...GO BEARS!!!
Of course they're fake...only one of my avatars this month was the real deal. Yes, implants would still count in BCA...they are implanted between the breast tissue and pectoral muscles...women who have had enhancements can still get Breast Cancer...the tissue remains. And, no I do not have enhancements...never needed them...I'm just up to speed on breast health.
I have never been in that basement and I'm not setting foot in it now...that's for damn sure! It actually gets worse. If you watch the video clip of the story and when they show the basement with her husband and the reporter...the room in the back has another door and beyond that door is foundation walls and a dirt floor! My girlfriend wanted to know how to tell if there is something beneath the dirt other than worms. She was told to let her dogs loose down there and they would be able to tell her that. She said no F'n way and slammed the basement door shut. That is just too creepy for me...the for sale sign would be on the lawn within days and I would be OUTTA THERE!
No kidding...I told her from now on I'll just blow the horn from the drive and she can come out to my car...I'm not going inside that house EVER again! That is too freaky!
It is a very very cold day here in Chi Town...28 degrees...BRRRR!!! I feel for those who are running the Chicago Bank of America Marathon today...they were freezing before the start of that race. Glad to hear that your husband is waiting on you hand and foot...NICE!
It's the weekend and that means no Doc's and no trips to the treatment facility...YAY!!! I spent today running around like a crazy person from one errand to another...just finished making dinner and am catching up on emails and what not. Sorry to hear that your feet and legs aren't doing all that great...take it easy and keep them elevated. Make your husband wait on you for a change...
I would say celebrate it tomorrow on the same date and forget about the day of the week when it arrived. Hard to believe it's been a year...time flies when you're having fun. I am outta here for a bit. The crappy weather has passed through and since it's sunny today I am headed outside to get my yard ready for fall and winter. Hopefully I won't have to mow the lawn more than a couple of more times after today. That will be one less thing to worry about. And the plus is that someone is very crabby today...good thing someone else took her for her treatment this morning instead of me...at least she is out of my hair for a while!
Sorry for the delay Rainey...been a bit busy since last weekend. I have always been a big supporter of Breast Cancer Awareness...have extended family members who are survivors. All I can say now is that Cancer Sucks!
First off...I do not wear red lipstick...the color on my regular avi lips is fuschia!
Second...if someone wants to ask if they are mine it isn't going to bother me one bit. I already have my answers for that question...should it be asked!
Bahahahaha...who else would put up an avi like that during Breast Cancer Awareness month? I'd switch daily to a pic of one of my upstairs supporter but it would take far longer than a month to see the entire collection...HA...tru dat!
I've got quite a few so I may be switching them once a week. I even have 4 t-shirts that all have Breast Cancer Awareness sayings on them...my favorite one is Holy Shi!t...Save the Tits! I may have to have pics taken and upload those for my avis this month. I'll be getting squished tomorrow morning.
Cutler is turning out to be quite the come back kid! Those were headlines in Chi Town's papers today...hopefully he won't wait until the 4th quarter to get it in gear...talk about a nail biter of an ending!
It wasn't intended to be a drive-by at all. I stopped by to say...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR RAINEYYYYYYYYY...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
But, my puter froze up and then I got buzzy with things and my Mom. We both managed to catch a nap after DA BEARS won again the Seattle Seahawks today. I just woke up and am catching up on things here!
Sorry to hear about what is going on over in SA and that you may not get to see many warships in the future...that totally sucks!
My head is just fine this morning. I actually managed to get a straight 7 hours of sleep in. The only problem right now is that my throat is extremely dry!
I was told yesterday by the gastroenterologist what it is and what I suspected was right. She just doesn't know the extent other that there is something there and she won't know until the primary Doc tells her on Wednesday. I have to take her there at 10 AM and then for a CT Scan on Thursday at the same time to make sure that it hasn't spread.
Right now I'm too busy getting trashed on my front porch...I am T-I-R-E-D!!!
One of these days I am gonna stop holding my tongue with a few of them. They are in for a very rude awakening, that is for sure!
I managed to get 4 1/2 hours of sleep this morning and now I am out to take a car for an emissions test, not mine though. Then I am back home to do all of my yard work today since tomorrow is garbage pick-up day. I think I may just be glad when winter gets here...it doesn't snow nearly as much as how quickly the damn grass grows! More laundry and housework...and the list goes on.
Well, my FAV DB didn't see it. I was far too intoxicated to drive him back to his hotel so he cabbed it. As a matter of fact, he wasn't done drinking for the night. He met up with a buddy of his after he and I parted company. I had to hang by the fountain drinking bottle after bottle of water until I was sober and could drive the rental back to my hotel.
It's waiting for a diagnosis that is driving me nuts more than the wait for the test and the transfusion to be done. I need to know what we're dealing with here.
Between phone calls, emails and text messages I ready to turn the damn cell phone off completely! These people have no patience and they do not listen to what info I am passing along to them. They start talking amongst themselves and the info completely changes. It's MADDENING I tell you...MADDENING!!!
It's 2 AM here and I am calling it a day since the next one starts in about 4 more hours...ttyl.
I don't have that many from my last trip. And I haven't had the time to upload them into my 'puter. There is one of the new fountain that I took the night I was smashed on my ass with my FAV DB...and I swear I had nothing to do with what was going on with the fountain...honestly!
I like to travel now and I'm making up for the 13 years that I didn't.
I will be spending the better part of my Friday sitting in the waiting area of the hospital while a test and a blood transfusion are completed. I can hardly wait for that!
. And as for your relatives, quick go on a holiday for Christmas. Oh and chocolate is way better than prozac. Will email you properly one day soon but I'm sick of the parents reading what I'm doing over my shoulder.
