Wow... good morning
Stringer, Jrebel, Chery... ;) right there with you!
Chery, I think of you even when I don't hear that song;)

Good evening, everybody.

Jrebel, Chery and Start, thank you so much..

Sometimes, those that did survive and came back, wonder why they were spared and others weren't. I know my uncle felt this way...

He survived being shot down; he told me, your life doesn't flash in front of you. You lock on to the ones you love the most and you tell them how much you love them.

My thoughts are with all those friends that I lost in Nam, especially this weekend.

Stringer

Morning everyone!

Happy Memorial Day and Happy Birthday to Colton :) My big man is 3 today! I just can't believe it, but boy do I remember those 23.5 hours of labor!! (I think I will remind him every year, lol)

Hope you all have a wonderful day... off to work (yeah this is crap!)

Hugs

Memorial Day is a special day!
Happy Birthday to COLTON! Awwww! Big boy!
Uhhhh, I got the day off today, sorry you have to work. Hugs while you are there!

Wow dear, that was a long time.
Jaime enjoyed the stories of her birth every birthday until she got into puberty. Especially when I told her dad to 'shut up and count'! When I was busy huffing and puffing and he was babbling on about something stupid. I also always told her that after she was in my arms for the first time, all the pain I went through was forgotten (well, almost)..
Neither of us regret those few hours in a lifetime to receive such wonderful rewards afterwards, and I know you feel the same way.

Congrats Mom!

I think that's great. One of my brothers was born on Jan 1 and the other was always jealous of all the fireworks until he understood it was not for his brother...

Ohhh the pain and joy! So right Chery!
Hugs and love!

Right back at you start..

Guess what (now this is going to make you envious), on Friday there will be a cleaning team of three coming to my place for three hours!
I talked to the administrator of our Cancer Group which I sort of supervise, and she said that her office has talked about and approved this team and they will foot the bill since I am physically unable to do a lot of the housework lately. This just totally flabbergasted me. I get to 'delegate' WOW.. Poor Larry, he'll probably hide during this time (or run from the vacuum cleaner and be exhausted) and tell me off later when we are alone. He gets more jealous than a two legged man when I have company - and these people will not just be sitting and talking.

What will be even more fun is watching my ex look out the window and notice the help and attention that I'm getting. He seems to have thought the I would be all alone and helpless without him... NOT! Oh, revenge is such fun. NaNaNaNaNa... I get to be Queen For A Day.. (well 3 hours).

Gosh, I just noticed that we are over the half-way post mark on this thread already!

HUGS Chery dear... you deserve it!

Awww, you are so sweet! Colton says happy birthday to all of you, heehee... he doesn't understand that it isn't everyone's birthday... it is so cute, haha.

Chery... you are so right... the pain diminished the second he was put on me and I saw his cute little face/fingers/toes/and all the rest ;) Congrats on getting a cleaning treatment! You must be so excited... if only someone would offer services around here, lol.

Alty... Happy (early) Anniversary! Woo Hoo... here's to 13 more for the both of you :) :)


Anyone do anything exciting today? Not us... worked this morning and did lots of cleaning there. I took Colton to see his great-gma and we all took a nice walk to the pond to see the ducks (I hope he remembers these times with her when he gets older). Off for the next two days, so maybe I will catch everyone then... big hugs to you all :)

Thank Firmy. It is 3:19 AM here in Germany, what time do you have?
Because of the time difference it is usually normal for me to be online at this time, but is it not 'late' for you? Are you OK? If you find it hard to go to sleep, I'll send you a Virtual Lullabye

How have you been doing lately. I hope all is well and that the weather is comfy. It is a little too humid here so I don't go out much. I like dry heat, but here in Germany there is no such thing.

Alexander came by with his mom shortly today and he actually called me OMA.. for the first time. They went to Legoland(sp) on the weekend and he just freaked out. He was so afraid of missing something and ran all the time, fell and scraped his cheek - I know kids will do that, but it just hurts me when I see bruises and scrapes on my poor baby. He let me kiss his cheek and that too was a first, specially for an almost two-year-old.

I know that I rattle on sometimes, but I'm just so excited, as today was surprisingly eventful.

Hope your's was too.

Night,night.

Chery, if we were closer in miles you house would always be clean, Maxy would be playing with Alex while I cook and bake for you! Well, on Tues, Wed, and Thursdays that is, cause the other days I work! I am so happy for you to be QUEEN for three hours! They are surly treating you good! Heehee, I bet "he" is jealous LMAO!
You are the best OMA ever, I just know he knows it too! ;)
Hugs and lots a love to you Chery!

Firmy, I miss you!
Rp, I need my dose of Sunshine, I will see you tomorrow! Glad he had a nice time, he is three now... ;););)

LMAO Stringer....LMAO Ok, back to work for me, house is clean only the dreaded bathrooms left!!
I really need to go shopping........Stringer, does Marta wanna go with me?

If you even THINK it too loud she will hear you.

Actually she was a pretty good girl this weekend, she only went once... ha

Heehee, Davy and Nana and I went... 12:30 top 9 pm... went for dresses came back with everything but dresses! Golly! (Marta WAS good Stringer! )
How are all of you sweet friends today? Long weekend is over and its back to the norm! Got coffee and the house is about clean... ;) So... How was your weekend?

Yep, I think I'll keep her... hee hee.. :D

Good idea Stringer!
You have lots a work today? Did you have any good weather this weekend?

Good idea Stringer!
You have lots a work today?? Did you have any good weather this weekend?

Yep, I do;

Today I need to price up 3 jobs and do proposals for each.
Tomorrow I need to head up a Training Session Meeting with our 7 supervisors
Thursday I need to get out and do some inspections (mostly PR)
Friday; Staff meetings all day

YOu got a spreadsheet you use for those proposals? Or is each one way too different to just fill in the blanks?
Take some walks and listen to some good music in between, it may just keep you on your toes!

HI YA BEAR!! How is home life?

YOu got a spreadsheet you use for those proposals? Or is each one way too different to just fill in the blanks?

You are a pretty bright girl...

Yes I use a template that I put together some time ago, but I still have to go through it and make changes and personalize it. Between all that and the usual phone calls my butt should be attached to this chair most of the day hon.

And I need to figure some pricing, which I can't get to as I have to wait for some info from one of my employees... geeze...

I had my son stop and get me two McDonald's sausage biscuits so I don't forget to eat (and take my pills... )

Hi everyone. How was the holiday weekend?

Ohhh those are soooo yummy! I love those, oh how I love those, they are my fave! Nooo Stringer, not the spreadsheets the Sausage Bistcuts! I love them, I can't eat at Donalds though, he gives me a bummy tummy! I only go there once every six months or even longer, my kids never go there either. BUT when I do I always hope I am in time for breakfast, cause the sausage biscuit w/cheese is the best!
You eat and read the paper! Have a great day today!

Hi everyone. How was the holiday weekend?

Way too relaxing Tus, jump starting it again to 120 MPH is little shocking..

How was yours?

I am eating a kids meal - chicken nuggets from there right now

Hi you Tus...
Mine was good! Way too relaxing till the end! I spent three nights with no kids... whoa, how in the heck did that happen?
It was nice I got in 5 movies and lots of good rest!
How was yours??

Thank you my dear...

They are good, I get them w/o cheese... but I put grape jelly on them... delicious!

TUS, SHAME ON YOU... YOUR Going to GET A TUMMY ACHE, THEY Don't EVEN USE CHICKEN! Sorry caps lock was on

If I get the little 4 piece I don't get a tummy ache... if I ate the big thing of them, yep big ache... but the 4 piece and small fry with a milk and I am good.

tUS, SHAME ON YOU...YOUR GONNA GET A TUMMY ACHE, THEY DONT EVEN USE CHICKEN!! Sorry caps lock was on

Wow, then I guess I have to ask "what is in the good tasting sausages:eek: ?"

You don't want to know!

I NEVER ate at McDonalds before I got married.

It is all HIS fault!! LOL

I tell him that all the time. My parents would not allow us to eat fast food. Now I love myself a good whopper from time to time... But mostly I like the Asian Chicken Salad at Wendy's.

Ohhh now Wendy's is a different story, I could totally go for a Jr. bacon cheeseburger!

Asian Chicken Salad and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Those are my favorites...

Ohhh now Wendy's is a different story, I could totally go for a Jr. bacon cheeseburger!!

There is nothing like one of my juicy cheese burgers, beer bratwurst, or NY steaks that I season and grill... you would love them. When we have a patio party all I hear: 'Is Lloyd going to grill?" And yes... smarty that is a good thing... :D

I bet you do know how to grill!
Charcoal or propane?

My hubby did 2 garbage can turkeys this weekend when we were camping. They were the best!

Hope all is well with every one of you.
Life has been busy and I miss spending time at this desk.
I think of each of you often and hope that everyone is great!!
Hugs!

Awww, thanks AK!

Hi AKE!! Good to see you.

Yeah Stringer check out the link... of course though my mom gave the hubby a special cooker for christmas so we use the garbage can and the cooker.

Missed that... thank you. And I have never seen or heard of and Orion Stainless steel Cooker... another thing I MUST have. Welllllll... Marta shops a lot...

She could run out a grab you one! LOL
All right... time for the kids to go down, I have a little hunter here wanting to go outside and get those Cougars for dinner... LOL

Hi there all you jabber jaws, heehee

Ya... tell me about it!

Hi people...

Kae,good to see you around!
Start,Rae,Stringer,Bear,Joe,Capt,Jan,Alty and everyone else who is here... Helllooooo;).

Chery,
The time you asked me about what time it was here,that was early morning 6 am or so.I had been working the whole night and just popped in here before getting some shut eye.
Even with no sleep I can't seem to stay away from the Desk.. I don't know what that says about my mental state:D.

You are just as sane as the rest of us Firmalicious!

And starty I think you missed my quotes on mothers... did you?Have you seen them.. they are beautiful ones and you really need to see them.

In the quoty thread??

Noooo.. in your mothers day thread!

Wellllll gosh... I didn't think anyone even went there...

I never got confirmation that anyone ever visited that post. That's OK, I know not everyone visits those threads in there!

You know me... I have quotes up my sleeve for all the special words... mother,nature,kids,friends,wisdom... etc;)

Hmmmm... why yes, yes you do! How are you... you were up late and got lots done?

I didn't get it all done and I need to be doing them now too... so better get off the net and start doing!!
Bye for now.. take care

Bye for now Firmy! Hope to chat with you soon beautiful!

I can't seem to stay away.It is time for me to Zzzzzzzzzzz,but I am still here... Byebye for now.(again!)hee hee

LOL... hugs and sweet dreams... see you in a few minutes:)

Chery, if we were closer in miles you house would always be clean, Maxy would be playing with Alex while I cook and bake for you!! Well, on Tues, Wed, and Thursdays that is, cause the other days i work!! I am so happy for you to be QUEEN for three hours!! They are surly treating you good! Heehee, I bet "he" is jealous LMAO!!
You are the best OMA ever, I just know he knows it too!!;)
Hugs and lots a love to you Chery!!

Firmy, I miss you!!
Rp, I need my dose of Sunshine, I will see you tomorrow!! Glad he had a nice time, he is three now.....;););)

Thank you start, I would love the company, specially your's and love to see the kids outside playing.

I really do feel blessed lately I need help with the place since I feel I've been a messy.. I can't even find the counter tops in my kitchen anymore. I go shopping and just put the stuff on them and forget to put them away. Lifting things up with my arms is a chore lately - so I'm really glad that I will get help.

Stringer... I know you'll do just fine at work. Competition is tough but you will do what you have to to support your loved ones and I'll be there in spirit to cheer you on and help you through that paperwork. I just know you've got great organizational skills.

Firmy.. I enjoy and appreciate your support, as always.

Since my internet and telephone are on Cable, and they would both be out in case of electricity failure, I had to get a handy for emergencies. My old one just didn't find it's charger anymore, so I got a sliding Samsung. It has bluetooth features and so does my computer, so now I know how to make them work together - I learned something new and am so proud that I did it all by myself. I put two of my favorite songs on the phone and deleted a lot of crap phone numbers that I did not need, and all this without touching my phone.. feels good. I really don't need internet on my phone though - have enough computers and when out I'm too busy to think of using the net on such a small screen.

Well folks, time for me to get some rest, got two appmts today after 0900 and will be exhausted afterwards. Resting on Thursday to get ready for the cleaning team on Friday, and on Saturday am going out with the cancer group to eat pizza. Alex has bronchitis right now and I have pneumonia (getting better) so it's not a good idea for us to cross-infect each other on Saturday. I sure miss it when we are sick and can't be together, but I know there will be better days and look forward to them.

Night,night.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_4_20.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)so tired right now that I am feeling giddy...

Ahhh well Chery, I love it when you're giddy, come on back here girly!

Hi everyone :)

Firmy... how do I keep missing you? Hog tie her next time starty, heehee

Chery... If I were closer, you could use me like my mom does to put up the higher things... being 6 foot comes in handy sometimes ;)

Hey there, Hello everyone.

I keep missing everyone too.

Goodnight and sweet dreams.

Hey Joe!

Getting ready for bed myself... just wanted to try again today. Hope everyone's busy day was good :)

I don't know how to hog tie her... but I AM REALLY GOOD AT USING DUCT TAPE!! :eek: :D
Hey you Captain, I may need that back... LMAO
;)
Hey you Joe... hope you are well! We are all good here! Make a funny face then I want you to take a pic if Little Cheeks copies you! :p

Hey Starty... speaking of Capt.. anyone heard from him? His myspace disappeared :(

It has been a real long time that is for sure.

All I know is that he has been logging on here... he has been real sick and he went to Alaska! HE IS ALIVE!! ;)

Sorry... went off updating myspace, lol. One track mind sometimes, hahaha. Guess I will see all of you tomorrow.

Nighty night. Sweet dreams to all of you :)

Ohhhh nighty night RP!

Goodmorning everyone,

Good morning Joe, and everyone.

Thanks Chery, got through yesterday; one day at a time huh? Thanks for the encouragement.

Stringer

Hey all. How's everyone doing this fine day? I'm starting to feel better, finally, and the kids are back in tip top shape. School is quickly coming to an end, Sydney is done June 17 and Jared on June 26, they can't wait for summer vacation, either can I. :)

Hey there, Hello everyone.

I keep missing everyone too.

Goodnight and sweet dreams.

Could be your timing is off a bit, Joe. Keep on trying you might catch us online when you log in next time.

Hi All.

Good to see that you and the kids are better and looking forward to the summer break, Alty. I just bet you hae a few things planned already.. invite me to a BBQ sometimes, OK?

Finished with my Wednesday group and coffee - couldn't wait to get home and sleep a little - sun and high humidity are no fun when you have pneumonia - but a little sleep in my cool bed will make me feel better. Getting through the week one day at a time and looking forward to Friday clean-up.

Why or why is it that when one is sick, one gets extremely hungry - but too weak to go shopping... the things I wind up mixing together as a meal get strange. Had hot-dog with BBQ sauce because I was not in the mood for mustard and ketsup.

Check you later...

Oh Chery, I haven't been here for a few days and didn't read all the posts I missed. I didn't know you weren't feeling well. Oh Chery, get some rest, eat your funny hot dogs and get better, that's an order. :) Big hug for you Chery, and of course you're invited to a bbq, just have to finish (actually start and then finish) fixing up the back yard. We plan to do some major renos back there this year. :)

Relax Chery...;)

Thanks so much sweetheart.. you know what I am going to dream about.
I think he is a super actor and has a lot of fans as I can see - so I can pick winners after all.

Lots of love and hugs from your grateful 'sister'!

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_17.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)

Alty.. take your time with the backyard and have fun with the kids. Jaime and her man are going to need a lawnmower soon - when the stuff gets taller than Alexander - then it's time to work on the jungle... :)

Ohhh that is so exciting!
I sure need to get my crap together, thanks for reminding me... ;)
Mmmmm Alty, I think we need a song today...
YouTube - I wanna thank you-Jess and Rory (http://youtube.com/watch?v=n35kquARGXk)
I think this is a good friendship song... so here it is! ;)

You are such a sweetie Starty pants, love and hugs to you. Mmmuwaah, that's a kiss. :)

Blush blush... I love kisses just like I love hugs!
Thanks sweet Alty! You isn't so bad yerself! (rp, I can tlak like a southerner, just like ya'all")

Oh goodness Starty, next you will be asking if we have grass in Oklahoma!

When I lived in Nebraska, a new friend from Minnesota actually asked me that. Guess she only knew about the "Dust Bowl Days"! LOL Then a store owner asked me where my accent came from... I looked at my friend. I thought she was the one with the accent. The both looked at me, I"m like, "What accent?" When asked where I was from, the guy leans over the counter and says, "Well, you do wear shoes!" In my part of the south though we say "Ya'll". Just a little funny story for the day. Guess we shorten it even from what rp does?? LOL

Chery and Alty, time to get those bodies healing! Makes me sad to know you feel bad. Hope Alex is better also. Our kiddos mend so much quicker and that is how we would want it but hard on mom and gramdmom! Hope little Alex is better by now.

I was born in Nebraska Rebby! Omaha, my real name is actually a city there. LOL
So ya'all just sit on back and relax...
Ok, I have no accent, but I know some days some people ask if I am from the south by the way I talk. I say nooooo... you silly! LOL
Thanks for a sweet little story, I liked it!

So can we call you Omy starty... lol

Ya... go ahead... if that's what you want to do?? It is not Omaha, I will give you that, it's a city there in Nebraska... LMAO but not Omaha... thank goodness I supposeLOLOLOL

LOL... enjoy your movie :)

Not yet... I had to rinse my hair and enjoy listening to the FAMILY strange talk we have been having... Oh geeze, the things that come out when people are close and comfy... My poor kids!

So what movie are you going to watch tonight starty?

I was born in Nebraska Rebby!! Omaha, my real name is actually a city there. LOL
So ya'all just sit on back and relax....
Ok, i have no accent, but I know some days some people ask if i am from the south by the way I talk. I say nooooo.......you silly!! LOL
Thanks for a sweet little story, I liked it!!

:p You've probably been hangin' around too much with us the reason you sound like you are from the south! LOL :p "Virtual or not, it's catching. Ha. :eek:

I'm glad you liked the story. It was pretty funny. Another one: We had moved to California only for a short time but kept our house here, took den furniture, left living room furniture, etc. I had taken the kids to the sand dunes to sand surf and a gal with her two children from California that had the tiniest sweetest little voice went with us. Every word was spoken so distinctly.

She was asking what the kids wanted to drink and said, "We have Pepsi, Coke, Mt. Dew, Root Barer and even the tone of her little voice changed. We all looked at her and asked, "Tina, where did that come from." We laughed off and on all day. It was great. It even shocked her.
You know what made me remember that?? You said, "I have no accent". You sound just like me! I don't think I do either. :p

One of these days Starty, we need to visit by phone just to see which one of us don't have an accent. That was cute Starty!

Hee hee, Reb, you know, your stories are so sweet, normal every day little things, you remember them as a part of your life, it shows... you remember them well. I love listening and reading about all of you guys and what you have been through, talked about, and what you decide on. You are all so interesting in a different way. It's like our own little town a people trying to make each day count. Sometimes we get as far as the shower, sometimes we get as far as each other. I love this place and all of you;)

All right, I was supposed to watch Gandhi, but its far too late... I fell asleep before I started it the other night so I wanted to watch it tonight, but too bad for me...
I had a full sammich on my plate and a big ole salad, I suppose Grady was hungry cause he looked at me, then my sammich and took it off my plate... ate it... and I was thankful, I just doubled up on my salad and ate the other half of my sammich without saying a word... he better remember how nice I am or... well, I will think of something!;)

I need to shut down the house and be quiet for a bit, hugs and love

Weird! I was on the phone, came in to check mail, your note was posted exactly one hour to the minute of when I sat down to type to you. Things like that just seem special.

It is good that I share my fun little stories of life because if I shared the hard time ones, no one would believe them anyway! LOL Sad but true. It is nice to have this big ol' Huggy Bear of a family all around us everyday, isn't it? I am thankful for each of you!

You were sweet to share your sammich!! I hope you are sleeping well and having sweet dreams right about now!! Catch you later on the morrow. :)

Ohhh I did sleep good! Thank you. I know you have had some pretty spectacular things happen to you! I like who you are! These hardships and situations help mold us:) I said all that in one breath! K, getting my yoga done! Hugs Rebb!

Hi.

Hi you Stringer!
Hi.

Ohhh I did sleep good! Thank you. I know you have had some pretty spectacular things happen to you! I like who you are! These hardships and situations help mold us:) I said all that in one breath! K, getting my yoga done! Hugs Rebb!!


Hey there Stringer and Starty! How's things going?
Yoga, huh? How long have you been doing Yoga. Stringer, do you do Yoga?
My daughter has been doing Yoga for a few years. She shows me positions that are just amazing. I will post one that is just peaceful to look at. She might not want me posting images but I think this one will be OK. I was going to do a series of paintings so she did several poses for me for me to photograph.

Well, I was going to attach one more but the "Manage Attachment" button is not working for me at the moment.

Her two children, ages 3 and 1 1/2 already know several poses, especially the 3 year old. It is great to develop his balance. He knows all the correct names for the positions. I have thought about doing yoga but I had a thought that beat that one! LOL Maybe someday!

OUch!

Morning everyone!

Ohhh that is peaceful... I love it! I have been doing Sun Salutations, they are mostly just a series of stretches that are supposed to be helpful for being more limber and adding a bit of muscle to my body. Also it is suppose to make my back stronger, and I really need that! I had Grady 14 years ago and I haven't excersized since. So my friend said strt here, and that is where I am... I started them about a month and a half ago and I add push ups and squats. It feels great but my back is hurting so I have to be careful. I haven't made an attempt to go full on YOGA! I will though, maybe then I will be ready for kick boxing too, they have a course at the college that gits yer groove on every quarter so I can start when I want to! Thanks for the pic, I am going to sit down and see if I can do that!

Ohhhh I can, I can!! Would you mind asking her if there is a website so I might be able to print off a beginner part?

Quick hi all. I've got ten minutes and then I have to go pick up Princess Sydney from kindergarten. How is everyone?

Good... you have been absent Alty... you have detention. Or a doctor excuse will do! ;)

How about big brown sad puppy dog eyes, will you accept that in lieu of a doctors note?

Got to run. Later all, be good, it shouldn't be hard with my bad influence absent. :)

Excused, I am such a push over!

I understand about back issues. Not fun. I was in a wreck in Nov. and another in Dec. then had an accident this spring in my hallway! Been going to a chiro since Nov. but he is helping. My ribs keep going out and causes extreme burning. My daughter is always after me to shape up and I know she is right. I use to walk three miles a day after working an 8 hour job and now?? "Nuthin' honey!" I am in horrible shape. I ride my motorcycle and lift and carry grandbabies but that is about it. LOL I will try to attach this one more image.

My daughter says this pose is a very difficult one for her. She held it for awhile bless her little heart, giving me time to get a few photos of it.

Ohhhh I can, I can!!! Would you mind asking her if there is a website so I might be able to print off a beginner part?

I am so proud of you Starty! I will ask her for information for you. WOW, I am impressed! :p

OUch!!

Morning everyone!

Hey, I am right there with you! That's what I say when I view those positions also! :p

Poses maybe more accurate... not sure. I don't know much about Yoga but I will pay more attention next time my daughter is here. :)

I would love more info. I have alsys been very limber. But my back aches and stops me from doing some things. Thank you Rebb!

Hay you :)

Rebel... the first pics looks real comfy (really), I am double jointed in my shoulders, elbows, thumbs, knees and ankles... so to be able to stretch like that would feel so good and would probably pop some of these aches and pains, lol. However, the second pic... that just hurts my arms to look at it, hehehe.

I didn't see the second pic... I am going back... LOL
RP, Sunshine, really??

I am going to try this... dont laugh, If I succeed, I will have someone take a pic later to confirm... LOL
Back pain is a big pain, I understand!

Hiya Starty! Don't hurt yourself trying those moves, lol. How's things shaking?

Jan,
I can do the first pose no problem! But the second pose,wow!
I want to be able to do that:)

We have a Yoga CD now and I did do it one day and plan on making it a regular practice. I would love to be flexible enough to actually touch hold my toes with my fingers.

Oh and Hi everyone!;)

Hi You

Just some samples until Jan gets back with her daughter's recommendations for a good yoga.

Ok, welp tried and couldn't do it... no way no how. Tell your daughter I am very impressed!
Firmy, that is great...
Rp, nothing is shaking, everything is standing real still... cept the kids! LOL
Hey you Joeseph!

Hey Firmy and Joe! How you doing?

Firmy I just saved those to faves so I can check them out tonight, I will tell you the easy ones... lol

Hi Rae,
Been a while... hope you are doing good.

And Joe,
Have you taken a break that you rightly deserve?

Start,
I want to be able to do the difficult ones too;)soon!

Meee tooooo Firmy, soon enough!;)

Hay ya'll :)

Rebel...the first pics looks real comfy (really), I am double jointed in my shoulders, elbows, thumbs, knees and ankles...so to be able to stretch like that would feel so good and would probably pop some of these aches and pains, lol. However, the second pic...that just hurts my arms to look at it, hehehe.

Hey there! I can almost do the first but I do not even try the second. I would fall flat on my face! I am not double jointed but always thought was so cool. :cool:

Well, let me rephrase, I could almost do the first prior to the last two car wrecks I was in a few months ago but I trust I will once again get moving again. :p

Jan,
I can do the first pose no problem! But the second pose,wow!
I want to be able to do that:)

We have a Yoga CD now and I did do it one day and plan on making it a regular practice. I would love to be flexible enough to actually touch hold my toes with my fingers.

Oh and Hi everyone!;)

Well hey there Firmy! I need to start getting more limber or I will be walking like a board, barely bending at the knees in a few years. UGH! :eek:

I use to walk on my hands when I was but a little one, well 12 or so. My sis-n-law says I was on my hands more than my feet when she first got in the family. :p

I did a cart wheel off the top of a fire hydrant that was at the edge of our lawn when I was in 5th grade. Just forgot to bend the elbow a bit and broke both bones. :rolleyes: Silly me.

I will be anxious for updates from you and all the rest of you!! :p Maybe I will get inspired. Just got two ribs put back in place yesterday at the Chiropractor so better wait a bit. LOL So does Stringer or Friend do Yoga also? My daughter loves it.

Stringer and friend love yoga... they taught us all how to do it as a matter of fact... LOL
We need pics boys!
Just kidding, I will soon be able to do the moces, maybe not the one oin the second pic, but others will go on my list!

Hi Ya'll

Hey there! Hmmm... I am real confused. Is everyone adopting "ya'll" now to make me feel right at home or have all of you always said it and I never noticed. I better wake up! ;)

Heehee, I think you and Rp rubbed off on us!
That's funny! Don't be confused!

I love it!! :)

I am going to take a pic of something I had done for my MIL and FIL, would you be around tonight to help me post it in the Craft thread? I would rather it go there than the art thread... or can you tell me when you will be around? ;)

I am a true Southerner Rebel... I couldn't not say you if I tried, lol

Hey you ;), and this from a German Canadian. How's everyone doing?

Quick hi all. I've got ten minutes and then I have to go pick up Princess Sydney from kindergarten. How is everyone?

Whoa Alty! Look at that Avatar!! Little change of pace? That is cute. :p

I am gonna take a pic of something i had done for my MIL and FIL, would you be around tonight to help me post it in the Craft thread? I would rather it go there than the art thread...or can you tell me when you will be around??;)

Hey there Starty! I am here now for a bit. Would you like for me to step you through it or post for you. I am happy to do either one!! :p

I am a true Southerner Rebel....I couldn't not say ya'll if I tried, lol

I am so glad. I had to grin when I read "couldn't not say" because I get called on that all the time. Especially when I am talking fast on the phone and I will say, "Did you not say" of "Is that not how you", etc. The person on the other end is like... huh?? Makes perfect sense to me. I have one friend who tries to turn it on me but I always answer it correctly, of course!! ;)

My eyes are playing tricks on me tonight. :p I read your post as saying, "I am a true Southern Rebel"! LOL I wanted to say, "You go girl!" LOL

I am from MO. Originally but moved south as a small child. It didn't take long and it was "Ya'll" and I got teased when I would return to MO but it was just second nature to me. I got teased a bit and still do living here because I guess I don't talk totally with the southern drawl. So, I am just a misfit. But I am comfortable as that... I have never fit anywhere! LOL

I have assumed after posting under the name jrebel7 that someone might perceive I am a rebel at heart. That would not be totally untrue. However, the J is for my first name, rebel if for the Honda Rebel motorcycle I ride, and 7 is God's perfect number.

I am glad to connect with you. I see your posts but have just missed that connection and now we have it and I am one happy camper. :p

Rebbie, you like the new avy? It's inspired by M, actually donated by M as well. I always threaten to get out my whip, so I guess it's only fitting that I have an avy with a whip.

Opinions all, keep whipgirl or go back to cute bunny Cotton? Will anyone recognize me if I stick with whipgirl? Oh by the way, whipgirl makes me feel powerful, I think I like it. ;)

Back in a bit all. Be good or I'll use the whip. :)

Hello Batwoman, how are you doing?

Start, Bonjour!

Oh my I have made a sting in somebody or maybe a few peoples bums today. Ouchy, Ouchy, Now I need to do some damage control.

Well Alty, nothing will ever change my image of you as the precious person you are but I have to say, it is a fun Avatar. I would keep it for a bit anyway. Now when some new people come on the site, you may get, ah, shall we say, some creative posts! LOL Have fun with it! I'm right here... I've got your back should you need any help. LOL :p No body messes with Rebbie's friends! They are far too precious to me.

I love it. :cool: Yep, pretty cool. Being as new as I am to some of the people, I am not sure who M is but perhaps M should find me a biker Avatar to make me look like a toughy!! LOL

Let's see? Does Stringer do yoga? I couldn't even get my hands around my waist. Although we (Marta & Stringer) are still going for long walks (which I must say usually leads to additional exercise) and Marta has signed us up for a swimming exercise class. So yoga no, but who knows, maybe someday, I've tried just about everything else in this life.

Alty, Alty, Alty... well... I LIKE>>IT! Yes, Catwoman!!

Have fun guys and hello to all, I mean "youns."

I see Yoga next on the list for you and Marta! Couldn't hurt, well, let me rephrase since it really could hurt me if I tried to do what my daughter was doing in the second pose. :eek:

It would enhance! LOL

Oh......Boyyyyyyy...

What is your vote for me Stringer? Do you agree with Friend?

What is your vote for me Stringer? Do you agree with Friend?

With Marta standing behind me at the moment and reading this... I would definitely say... the cartoon one, for sure, yep, ah huh... the cartoon one; the chicken, yep that's the one... right honey? Yeah that's also the one Marta would pick... ah hmmmm... later:p

Night youns,

Stringer

Stringer

Thank you for that uncoaxed answer!! :p And which one was the cartoon one? OH, I see, the chicken... now I understand that could stand for Biker Chic or could say something about my not being brave. Which do all think that it portrays?? :confused:

Thank you Marta for helping in the decision. I can use all the help I can get! LOL ;)

I don't think my husband would allow me to use the second one so that 's out. The first one definitely wears leathers when she rides but that third one is cute...

I don't think my husband would allow me to use the second one so that 's out. The first one definitely wears leathers when she rides but that third one is cute...............................

Being male and being (of course) allowed to choose without any pressure of any kind, I too choose the chicken. Yes, the chicken... the chicken.. yep.:confused:

Chicken Chicken Chicken

Should I have changed image size or does it look right??

Luv it!!

Luv it also!! Thank you much! Can't wait to see what our other friends think when they get back on line tomorrow! You were so sweet to come up with that for me. Never dreamed in a million you would! :)

Hey biker chick.

Hey there! You are the first to notice!

Yes, I guess I am. Lol

Hey Joe

How are you?

I am doing all right, How about yourself Friend?

Pretty good mate , 3pm Friday afternoon here so weekend is only 2 hours away :)

Cool, you always like to throw that at me. It is Friday morning at 1 am here. A far cry away from the weekend start. Lol

LOL... sorry :) 1am geez time for bed!

Rebbie, love the avy, cute little chic on a bike, cute little chic with a leather jacket. It's GREAT! :)

Good job M, now we have to get one for Starby. :)

Sometimes I am so tired I fall asleep early, then I wake up early. Lol
I have always been an early bird.
1 am. Going to bed again soon, I think.

It's only 11pm here, but I'm getting tired. I actually went to bed at 8pm last night, I guess I really needed the sleep.

Hey Joe, love your new avy too, it's coooooollllll. :)

Thank you Batgirl.

Well goodnight everyone. Time to hit the bed I think.

Rebbie, love the avy, cute little chic on a bike, cute little chic with a leather jacket. It's GREAT! :)

Good job M, now we have to get one for Starby. :)

Thanks Alty! Leather jacket, oh yeah, I see it. LOL I was so surprised by having it and making choices, I hadn't noticed that. I must be getting loopy. I don't usually get loopy until after 1:30 a.m. It is 12:14 here so thought I had a little time but guess I started getting loopy early. Guess I will say good night to all of you... Sweet Dreams! I need to post something on crafts real quick then it will be on to bed for me also. Night you!! :p

Night Joe and Night Rebby :)

Night Joe and Rebby, sleep tight. :)

Good morning you. Gosh, I didn't recognize anyone this morning, lol. Was it time to change for everyone?

Reb... I so agree with you and am glad as well that we have joined our southern forces, heehee. Love the new biker chick!

Alty... SEXY... Woot Woo, lol

Joe... What is your's? It's cool looking, but I can't figure it out??

Stringer... Get all the extra curricular you can dear ;)


Hope everybody has a great day! Hugs

Good morning all...

Off to staff meetings for most of the day. Not always fun, have to sit there for way too long, I would rather be moving around. These meetings are necessary... but, you know your butt falls asleep, it climbs your spine, then gets to your brain and...Well then anything can happen from fighting to keep your eyes open to having a "rubber neck" and "bobbing" your head up and down...very embarrassing, you have to pinch yourself.

Oh well, too many problems to not have the meetings.. so... off I go..

I'll see youns later this afternoon...
Stringer

Oops, forgot to sign off last night, I was "on" all night long. :)

Morning all, hope everyone is bright eyed and bushy tailed, if not, I now have the power to whip you into shape. Muwahahahahaha ;)

String, have a good day, I am off to work today too, but I am going to smile about it... ;)
Rp... ya, uh, all that happened last night, I had to git out of here before I got all crazy.
Everyone, oh geeze Alty, you are cute... Happy Friday...

Happy Friday Starty pants, talk to you later. :)

Guy, I love the ring!

Hello Guy,

Your medical bill will be the most expensive for the next months!

I just thought about that... I need all this paperwork to magically be done, I don't want to spend my free day and night doing this, Dustin and Grady went to Corvallis, Davy is leaving for a birthday stay over at 5, the boys will be in bed at 7:30 and out, if I don't get this done, I will spend my night "off" in a pile of bills... :( Help meeeeeeeee

Before the kids bedtime!!

Yes, and thank you, you're a DOLL! I am hurrying, I just get confused matching insurance with that actual bill and I swear, I am not a good desk job lady! Anyway, I got to hurry, pick up a birthday present, and get some movies for the lonely night I am so EXCITED about;) See you a little later unless I click "refresh again"



I commend anyone that has to compare and figure out paperwork, you are holier than thou;):):)

Wow,
Nice work Guy! I sure hope the one who is getting this gift realises all the hard work that went into making this ring so special.:)

Hi all, just dropped in to say a quick hello.

Alty... you replaced the bunny - like the new you too!

Albear.. I suffered from hay-fever most of my life, and used all kinds of meds.. now I only use horseraddish when it flares. It really opens those sinuses and makes everything run - not just the eyes. Just a spoonful will do and it works wonders.

Had my three hours of Queen for a Day.. and it was super. Got a lot done and feels squeeky clean. I just could not just sit back and delegate though, so was in the thick of it and am still paying for it now.. my back and joints are punishing me but at least I know it was for a good reason. Got dizzy and had to rest only once during that time and didn't need extra oxygen, even though it was very humid that day.
Larry was stressed with all those strangers in the place and barfed a few times, but he's relaxed again - just normal stress from current thunder storms - which is normal for him. Poor baby.

Have a few more things to do this week, so we'll talk again later..

Lots of Virtual Hugs to you ALL.

Albear.. I suffered from hay-fever most of my life, and used all kinds of meds.. now I only use horseraddish when it flares. It really opens those sinuses and makes everything run - not just the eyes. Just a spoonful will do and it works wonders.

Really? hmmm thanks chery will have to try that sometime :)

How Greek's handle business, funny and pretty smart too...

Costa (father): 'I want you to marry a girl of my choice.'
Son: 'I will choose my own bride!!!'
Costa: 'But the girl is Bill Gate's daughter..'
Son: 'Well, in that case… ok'
Next Costa approaches Bill Gates.
Costa: 'I have a husband for your daughter….'
Bill Gates: 'But my daughter is too young to marry!!!!!'
Costa: 'But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank.'
Bill Gates: 'Ah, in that case… ok'
Finally Costa goes to see the president of the World Bank.
Costa: 'I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president.'
President: 'But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!'
Costa: 'But this young man is Bill Gate's son-in-law.'
President: 'Ah, in that case… ok'

And that my friend is how Greeks do business

Thanks Stringer.. that is good.

If I made you smile Chery, it made my day hon...

By the way; one of my most favorite songs ever is "Sherry" by the Four Seasons. I don't care how they spell it sweet.

Stringer

Hi all. Did I miss everyone? String, Chery, Albear, where did everyone go? Sob, all alone yet again. ;)

Stringer, loved the joke, very good. :)

~`~`~~~~"Alone again~~~~~~naturally"~~~~~~~~~

No, I... am... here... you... are... not... alone...

EDIT: Only... for... a... short... while... though... "take me to your leader"

My sweet Stringer to the rescue. I am no longer lonely, I have Stringer by my side.

How are you sweetie? I hope all is well. :)

Who... is... this... "stringer"... is... he... your... leader..

Does... he... have... pop corn.. we... have... heard... of... this;;;;;;"pop corn"

Not quite my leader, but a great guy nonetheless. Stringer is one of the few males that visit this thread, he is entertaining, kind, sweet, nice, and if I keep this up then he might get conceited.;) He's one of a kind, and we all love him to pieces. :)

Awwwwww shucks ma'am... my face could light a Christmas tree...

EDIT: I am sorry hon, but I have to run also. Early duties in the morning and it's 10 to 11 pm now and I still have to put away my dry cleaning. I'll catch you later...

What about me Alty:(

Hey stringer , loved the joke :)

Well I only told the truth. :)

How are you dear? How's life treating you? I'm doing okay, finally feeling better (knock on wood). I have to get my butt in gear, I'm making key boxes for the kids teachers as a thank you gift. Jared has two teachers, Sydney has one, so I have to get cracking. Summer break is almost here.

Other news, I might be going to LA (California) in September for 4 days. Me myself and I. I have a friend that lives there, he said I could stay with him, otherwise it wouldn't be affordable. I'm excited, and nervous, four days without my hubby and kids, I'll probably be crying because I miss them on day two. I think it would be good for me, and for them. Now I just have to get my passport renewed, which is no mean feat. I live in Canada, but I'm a german citizen, in order to get my passport renewed I have to fly to Vancouver or Toronto, I'm in Edmonton, Alberta, that's a bit of a flight, actually I think Toronto is a longer flight than to LA. Sad, I'm doing my best to find a loophole. ;)

What about me Alty:(

Hey stringer , loved the joke :)

Thanks M...

No competition here, you can have the title, makes me blush:D... (but it was nice though)

Good night all,

Stringer

What about me Alty:(

Hey stringer , loved the joke :)

M, goes without saying, or it should. :)

I missed you, where were you? Did you get lost on your way to AMHD?

Just busy at work I'm afraid , but having lunch now at my desk so will be around for a little bit.

Well I only told the truth. :)

They WILL miss you... but that is super, a nice little time away. Too bad you won't see Chicago on the way.

Never been to LA, never been to Chicago, heck, there's allot of places I've never been. ;) I think it will be good for them, it will make them appreciate me more. ;) I've been a stay at home mom for almost 10 years, they rely on me, which is great, but they also have to learn to rely on Daddy and on themselves a bit. It's only 4 days, I have a feeling I'll miss them more than they'll miss me.

I'd love to go to Chicago one day, heck, I'd love to see the entire world. My main goal, trip with family, will be to visit my relatives in Germany, I miss them so much, and they're so far away. :( Maybe next year.

Hey all, got to run, House is on, can't miss it. I might be back in an hour. Keep the home fires burning. :)

Evening all, Been a little bit lazy and Haven't really gotten on here much

Weekend was kind of lame, Nothing new, Leave for my east coast trip a week from Wednesday

Hello...

Hello all, back for a bit. I'm getting my hair done tonight, I'm excited.

Should I;

A. Get it cut short.
B. Keep it long but get it layered
C. Shave it all off (kidding)
D. Go blonde (also kidding)
E. Keep it the same, just a trim (it's slightly layered, and down to my chest, when I'm not wearing a bra,;))

Any ideas?

Have I caught you two at a bad time because I can call back later lol

Hee, hee, nope, it's all good Bear. :)

M, you are toooooo funny. :)

How are you Bear?

I'm good thanks how about you :)

All this teasing Alty, first you lead us to a "boob" thread by excon no less... and now all this talk about "no bra's"... tantalizing I must say.. Please remember, we men are here too.

Hey stringer how you doing can't stay too long just checking how you doing

I have been fine Bear... thanks, and you my friend?

Forgot to log off while having dinner, sorry.

Ah Stringer, poor man, breasts, bras, and no pics, sorry, can't do it, there are children on this site. Besides, I wouldn't want to get you boys all excited. ;)

Bear, I'm doing okay, going to get my haircut in 1/2 hour. Nobody had any advice on what I should have done, maybe I should just shave it off, it will be nice and cool for the summer. ;)

:eek: Got to run or I'll be late for my appointment (not that my hairdresser is ever on time). I'll be back later, maybe wearing a hat. Be good all, especially you boys. ;)

Alty :)

I can tell you that is all it would take... they are my weakness, my weakness, my weakness... yes that.

Went to see an old friend today... it was her wake, she passed last Sunday. She looked beautiful and very peaceful... as I knew her. She had many people come to see her from all over the U. S. and the world... she was special to me too.

She was an Italian Mom who always seemed to have an apron on... And whenever we visited she made me feel like I was her "first born", always made me feel very special and in a warm place. She never let my plate go empty even though I protested.. to no avail. And it seemed that I always received a little more than the others. She was 67 when she passed and she still pinched both my cheeks no matter who was around and told me how handsome I was, even though I ceased being a kid a long time ago.

I feel a little shallow space in my chest right now... you know, you just don't replace these special people and I seem to be losing way too many of them lately...

I had to get this off my heart, thank you for listening.

I am going to sleep now, see you all tomorrow.
Stringer

Stringer, it sounds like you were very special to her too. These are the good people who make us, mold us, teach us and love us. It is good to feel for her being gone, its good for you to feel, she was special to you, it shows. Night and sweet dreams.;)

Thank you Start you are a sweetheart if there ever was one.

Yes you are so right about how she influenced my life. It just doesn't seem fair, so many people are still in need of her... too many of the good ones are slipping away, way too soon, it is sad.

Hug all the ones you love sweet, and don't ever let go.

Stringer, I am so sorry for your loss. Sounds like it is also a real loss to the world, her passing. It is touching to read your post. Too many guys cannot express their feelings. Please know that you are special to all of us here and when one of us hurt, we all hurt.

I too have had too much loss but it seems everyone I know is having lots of trials, tribulations and sadness. God gives us each other to hold each other up when we hurt. I am thankful for all of you on this thread.

Stringer, the sadness will pass and when you think of her, the memories will soon bring only smiles and laughter to replace the tears of your loss. How fortunate you are to have had this woman in your life. Amazing woman. Your words make me almost feel I knew her also and miss her also.

Cry when you need to... share here as you need to... Love and Hugs!

Stringer, I am sorry to hear about your loss. You have shared something very special to the world. You will always have those memories within you.
