I used to watch to the manor born, faulty towers, Yes minister, butterflies are free. But I haven't had time these days to watch them.
By the way, I got pulled over by the police yesterday for tailgaiting a coca cola delivery truck. When I explained to the policeman why, He got a good laugh and let me off with a warning.
Morning Chippers, the cop should have been greatfull you were'nt stood there licking and sniffing the lorry giggle
I miss "Monty Python's Flying Circus", "Red Dwarf", and the "Young Ones".
Alas, I no longer have cable.
I have to make do with horrible American shows.
On the bright side of that, it's only 13 days until the new Lost!
Trust me, it took a lot of restraint from begging the truck drive to follow me to my house and set up a soda machine on my front porch.
Good morning fellow goddesses. Syn, Im waiting for new episodes of Ugly betty and Close to home. I'm still drooling over David James Elliot formerly from Jag. Have you ever seen him in those white uniform pants leaning over a desk?? Be still my frantic beatng heart. So for nowI settle for merrkat manor and their soap opera drama.
CBW you should be proud of yourself for what you've started. Your thread is close to the 1000 post mark. Plus you've got a lot of people motivated about quitting smoking, eatting fast foods, and lowering their caffeine intake. Maybe we all should take it one the road as motivaional speaks. I hear they clean up in appearance fees.
If you haven't noticed, we talk more about us rather than how many days we haven't indulged in our vices. Cudoes to you CBW and thank you from the bottom of my decaffinetated heart.
LOL... the only TV I've watched in the last few years is Family Guy, Robot Chicken, Lost and CSI, and CSI is only if that's what the hubby has on when I'm doing something in the living room.
I'm not much of a TV person in general. I'd rather be on the computer or reading a book.
You know what Chippers I've never been so glad I did something I've gained some super friends and your all very inspiring and I thank you all for being there and keeping me company your all extreamly special xxxx
I usually keep the TV on because I hate total silence. I only watch a couple of shows anyway.Quote:

I also keep a journal where I write when I'm troubled about something. I've noticed once I've written in it I feel better. I've also noticed that I haven't gone back to read what I wrote and those are under lock and key so no one can read them. Soon I'm going to have enough for a bon fire. We could have when the laundry ride officially opens.
I don't like the idea of destroying the written word, really. Someone, somewhere, could probably benefit from your words!
I, too, write when I'm upset. I try to write other times, too, but if I'm not upset I find myself too busy to sit down with a pen. Writing is a focus for me, to get past that brain-stop that happens when I'm upset.
CBW... you are the best for starting this. I've made some excellent friends, I've learned a lot, and best of all--I haven't smoked a single cigarette.
Good Morning everyone.
Anyone want to know why I am smiling? Hmm
Cause I am so grateful and blessed to be a part of this with all of you.
You guys are the absolute best!! Thank you CBW :)
Hugs to all. Want a cig, need a cig, wish I had a cig, buuuuuuuut I would much rather
Be on the top branch with all of you. Fear of heights and all :)
And there is plenty, plenty, plenty of room on the branch for Nafarious (boy typing that name will sure keep my hands busy and a cig out of my hands :)
Special hugs to the Honorary Members of the Top Branch Club ;) Joe, CurlyBen (and that special merger finger) Harley and Cap.
J_9, still praying for you girl.
By the way, guess what I am doing this weekend. Oh yes I am, I am going to practice with my laundry basket sliding down my stairs. Oh trust me I am. Hubby is resting his belly this weekend from the beer, (his belly takes a beating from it) so he should be oh so pleasant LOL, so to living things up, Allheart will be taking a good ride down the stairs :)
Many hugs to all of you. Darn proud of each of you.
Lots of love being sent.
Now I wish I HAD stairs.
Allheart, can I come visit? ;)
Actually, I'll be working overtime this weekend... ugh.
J_9 you've been in my thoughts all morning. Pop in and tell us how you and your little guy are doing, okay?
You sure can :) Me stairs are your stairs :D
Hugs
Actually... I might make my husband go sledding with me on Sunday. There's enough snow for it now, anyway.
Instead of baskets down the stairs, I mean

As for the book burning thingy, I understand your point. But for me its liberating. Sort of like walking through the door to a new outlook on life. I do have one that maybe someone could benefit from.. the ones marked for burning no one should read. Its where I put the bad stuff to rest in peace. In the one not marked for burning I've written about my new friends here,errrrrrrrrr GODDESSES.
I call it celebrating your inner goddess.
That's awesome!
I understand about liberating. I guess I can't blame you for destroying all that negative emotion. It just pains me to see "books" burned!
You can HAVE my snow. We didn't get it until after xmas, and now it won't go away!
It pains me too see books burned as anact of censorship, what I'm doing is more of a therapeutic exercise.
Thank you for your generous offer, but what I'm getting this afternoon and tonight is quite enough. I'd hate to be too greedy. I have to let others have their fair share.:p
LOL... I think the people in TX and NM and AZ are getting MORE than their fair share this year! And honestly, we really need it. We're kind of low on precipitation for the last couple years, and if we don't start getting more rain/snow, we'll have a mess with the farmers.
It's good that you're not selfish, though ;)
I have to recommend here, since it's my new munchie... Quaker Rice Snacks. They're bite sized, like crackers, only 70 calories per serving! No fat, only 15 g of carbs!
I've tried the caramel ones. And I really like them. Have you tried the 100 cal. snack pack lorna doones. I can't get enough of them 100 cals and 3 grams of fat. And pretzel minis are great to snack on.
This weather is killing my skin. I have electric heat and even with a humidifier it's still irritated. I love spring and fall here in New Jersey because I don't need the heat or the a/c which is just as bad. Benefit cosmetics make a moiturizer called Dr. John and it seems to help it. For a little while. It draws moisture to the skin and Its soothing.
I'm a baby lotion sort of girl. I don't usually wear makeup unless I'm performing or we're expecting clients to actually come to our office!
I'm looking forward to summer this year soooooo much. After 5 Texas summers, a Minnesota summer is going to be soooo mild that I can leave the windows open all summer! Yay! No AC!
I haven't tried the Lorna Doone's. One of the ladies here at work brought in the ranch Quaker thingies, and now I'm addicted to the apple cinnamon ones. Mmmmm... glad it's almost lunch time. I'm hongry!
I hear you. I love the windows open and no a/c or heat. The windows wide open and the breeze coming through. It'll be better this summer cause were planting roses and lilacs bushes. It'll save money on airfreshners.:)
Have a nice lunch I'll chat with everyone later.
Luv to all
Chippers
