Looks like I'm just in time. You need some more ice. This time I carved it myself! Ring Toss anyone?

My friends and I enjoy a nice tradition when we walk in the front door of a friend’s party. We toss our coats and hats at the kids to put on the communal coat bed. We make a game out of it for them, hence, Ring Toss.

LOL... I feel sorry for those kids in the wintertime if you live in that part of the country where winter wear has a meaning that us southern Californians can't comprehend!

Well, when I lived in PA my friends kids got strong real fast! When I lived in Los Angeles, it didn't translate so well. Now I live in Arkansas with no friends and no kids around. I wonder why? LOL

I'm happy because tomorrow my sister is coming to visit and I haven't seen her for a while. She's just passing through, so I'll see her for dinner, but I'm happy about that, too. :)

I'm also happy because my new deck is under construction and will be finished soon and I'll be able to take my laptop out there and access my cable modem via a wireless connection and sip lemonade (spiked or otherwise) while I surf the web.

Further, I'm happy because in my garage are two of the most fun cars I've ever owned and whenever I drive either of them, I can't seem to stop grinning (one is a customized PT Cruiser, the other is a VW New Beetle Convertible).

Continuing in the same vein, I'm happy because it is now almost exactly ten days until I leave for a 2-week dream vacation in Australia.

There are many more reasons I'm happy, but these are the highlights at the moment.

Life is too short to drink bad wine! :)

Cont from the Complaining thread:

Cinder is also a cat, but Cinder likes to drink from the tub. I bought her one of those fountain water bowls, which she likes, but she still likes the tub. Darla, Cinder's dog playmate, also likes the fountain water bowl because Darla like to have everything Cinder has.

Cinder, Costa and Kassie are very happy to drink from the bathroom sink. If I leave a little trickle running, they are very VERY happy. Kassie is SO happy, she'll lay in the sink and get all wet.

In case I'm not home, and therefore don't want to leave water running, I leave a glass on the countertop full of water. They drink out of that glass all the time, too.

Costa and Kassie are very happy kitties. Spoiled rotten, too, ya think?

Cinder

Yep- spoiled. I had to buy the fountain because Cinder only jumps in the tub when someone is around. I get in trouble with dh though because I hate to stand there and wait for her to be done- so the tub is almost always running.

happy day. My almost 3 year old granddaughter was given her first lima bean to eat. Her comment?

"I don't like it daddy. It has potato inside".

Not that I have any idea what this has to do with BB4, but hey..the name of the thread is "A happy thread" and she makes me happy.

I have to agree with Jpgramma's grandbaby... "I don't like it." Lima beans, that is. One of two vegetables that NEVER pass these pucker up lips.

Bellinis!

Costacat figures either everyone will smile as she delivers bellinis all over the place, or else they will commit her to Betty Ford.

Costa & Cinder -- Bonza & Precious drink from our hands, so they sit next to the bathroom sinks until we turn them on and hold our hands under the stream. If they tried to drink from the tub I'm quite sure they would fall in, but they don't mind water (yes, they really *are* cats) as they walk around on a wet shower floor fairly often! They also have a fountain - Bonza is quite pleased with it but picky Precious prefers the "hand delivery" method.

Back to Bellinis!

Time for more bellinis!!!!!!!

And I'm glad mine don't, Bonza. I'd be spending half my day in the bathroom. Not a good place to spend it! <grin> (And think of all the BB stuff I'd miss!)

Yes, Costa -- a cat (or cats) waiting by the sink tends to slow down all routines, getting ready to go someplace, etc. But I bet your pet water bill is higher than mine, too! ;-) Of course I know that matters not, and that we would both do anything for our beloved felines.

P.S. My urge for PB&J has been replaced by the urge for Bellinis!!!!

Hee hee hee!!!! Amazing how my routine/schedule gets adjusted by my children.

If you ever go to Paris Paris in Las Vegas, go to the jazz bar there and order a slushy bellini. You'll think you were in heaven! Yum!

LOl Bonza...my cat will only drink from the faucet so I know how that is, (but I don't have to hold the water in my hands for her). She's perfected the talent and rarely gets water in her ears or in her face.

Bumping this up because I sense some more ugliness starting up. Quick, someone pass out some valiums. I think Robert can get some (hee hee).

Smart move, Hobbs!

And I say Bellinis and Valium.... after that, no one could possibly be unhappy with anything *except* being unable to type!!!

(Costa -- I was just in Vegas 2 weeks ago, if only I'd known about Paris' Bellinis! Ah, well, it's so close, another trip is always in the near future so thanks for the tip!)

LOL!!! Hobbs, I was going to say howdy to ya, but I saw on your profile, you don't want to meet new folks, you have enough enemies!!!
Too funny! So after all this, just pretend I didn't say hi.
Cheers to all!!
