Bobbie_552001 | Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 07:02 am     Texannie...I hope your headache is better very very soon...and Hermione I promise to have it back in your possession by noon...but I just might have to paint my toes the same color!! Its awesome... |
Babyruth | Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 07:10 am     1. I'm also feeling both a little sad but also very happy for Spygirl. Such wonderful things lie ahead! 2. Hoping Texannie's headache goes away soon. 3. Wish I could be at RG's this Saturday for the TVCH fun. Sounds like a great time! Cranium is a very fun game, RG. 3.5. I'm waiting for the AAA person to come out here and change my flat tire for me. This is frustrating because normally I would just change it myself and be on my way to my errands. |
Mygetaway | Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 09:56 am     {{Spy}} Good Luck with the move.... PS, what ever happened with the kitties? |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 03:18 pm     1. AHEM . . . guess who came home for dinner? Little Miss Spitfire, Wargod's twin. She looks worse than Wargod did when we first started caring for him, and her leg is a little bit gimpy, but he brought her up for dinner this evening. YAYYY!!! 2. Wargod's doing just great - he gets smoother and sleeker every day, and doesn't take any crap from anybody - including me; 3. We may have to catch Spitfire and put her in the tub, but that's nothing new; 4. We already have a two-week old little peeper named Sukii living in the tub (it's filled with lakewater). Remember that hen who showed up with 11 ducklings? Sukii's the only one left. Lucy the Hen was a miserable, neglectful mother, and we finally took Sukii from her to give the poor little sweetie a chance. You should see that cute little yellow furball with the striped eyes bobbing around in the tub and cheeping. She is a hoot!!! |
Spitfire | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 06:19 am     1. Oh GAL that's wonderful news!! I am happy to hear that Spitfire is back. 2. I came to find TVCH in the middle of BB last year and am amazed at the activity around here right now. I don't remember it being this busy but maybe it's because it's just the start. 3. I am so happy to have found this place. It helps keep me sane though my boring day at work. 4. It's a beautiful day here. 5. I take a vaction in a week and a half and can't wait. Just going to the cottage for some R&R. |
Ddr1135 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 03:49 am     1. Wondering how many trips to the lake it took GAL and MM to fill up bathtub for Suki????? 2. Justin/Christina concert in New Orleans was great, my son enjoyed it thoroughly. 3. We also went shopping, only buying stuff on sale. We got 4 shirts for him, 2 shirts and a hat for me for $40. 4. Our hotel room was free, thanks to a friend of mine. What a great friend! Only had to pay parking. 5. The minute I got home I set up Real Player for BB, watched the tape from Tues. night show. Oh, what fun! 6. Wish I had a cottage like Spitfire to go to for R&R. Have fun! |
Wargod | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 09:40 am     1. I want to go to a cottage for a week! 2. School is going well for the kids. I have volunteered for either Friday (my choice) or Mondays (if Fridays aren't good for the teacher) for Caleb's class. 3. Dakota's teacher is looking for a volunteer for one hour a day, 5 days a week, or what you can do. She works with groups and during the time, says she relies on parents to teach the class. 4. I wonder if by teaching she means singing. First time I open my mouth to sing, I think she'll find a new parent helper, LOL! 5. I have seen about 8 minutes of both BB shows this week. Won't get to watch the tape til this weekend. 6. I'm glad little Spitfire came back home. I'm a little jealous that GAL gets to have a small lake of her own in the house though. 7. Go little Wargod!! Woo hoo! |
Julie | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 11:22 pm     1. I got a DVD player for Christmas. 2. Didn't get it hooked up until last month (my cousins son kept promising to "be over next week") to do it 3. Got "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"....wasn't very impressed, but the ending was OK 4. Haven't been to the library in a few years, went there today and got a card. 5. While there I borrowed "American Pie"...my first time seeing it. Have only watched about 1/2 so far, but it's OK. Julie |
Ladytex | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 06:07 am     *yawning, stumbles in to say TGIF!* |
Wargod | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 02:49 pm     1. My sister just dropped off my neice so she could go have an ultrasound done...didn't bother to call first. 2. Dakota has to ride the bus home for the first time today. I swore she was too young, but didn't really have a choice today with the car broke and grandma being busy. 3. I noticed the bus pass had the wrong load spot #, so asked mom to make sure her teacher knew. Dakota overheard and freaked out over. For the first time this week, we had tears over going to school. 4. Hopefully when she sees Caleb and the neighbor girls on the bus, she'll be ok. 5. Hubby has volunteered to work every Friday and Saturday in another department at work. He'll be working from 4am-4:30pm. 6. It's 107 here today. Kota and I took a walk at 8am, and it was a nice cool 93, lol. Early mornings and late evenings are providing very little relief. |
Tagurit | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 05:36 pm     1.I believe this is only my second post to this thread. I don't know why as I read this everyday. I guess I figure I am boring. lol 2.Dh just left for 2 weeks (and 2 days to be exact)for his Air Force reserve time. He is heading to Seattle. He just found out too that he has been awarded the Air Force Commendation Medal. 3.This morning at breakfast dh was explaining about him leaving tonight to our 4 y/o ds. DS did the usual kid sayings of "I don't want you to go" and "I want to go with you". DH explained he couldn't but ds would have a great 2 weeks with mommy. My ds replied, "oh great! I am stuck here!" 4. I thought I would have a problem with BB being on while dh was gone. I thought I might get too addicted and stay up too late. Right now BB isn't impressing me too much so I may not have a problem. 5. It has been really hot here and in the same temps as Wargod is experiencing. I hate walking outside and feeling like I can't breath. 6.Momma bird had 3 eggs that hatched in my hanging basket. It is in front of my son's room. I love looking out and seeing them. 7. We have a rabbit family that hangs out in our backyard when noone is out there. There is a beautiful baby this year. It is multi-colored. 8. I am looking forward to being able to keep up with the boards since I don't have to share the computer every other day (DH works 24 hour shifts) because dh is gone. 9. Can't think of anything else to say. 10. Hope everyone has a great weekend! |
Jbean | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 06:13 pm     1. i have had a fairly decent week. 2. i had half a day off today because i worked a 12 hour shift yesterday to cover all my hours for the week. 3. working 12 hours is not fun! 4. i went outlet mall shopping today in branson. 5. i only spent about $14. i got a tank top and liquid eyeliner at old navy, and a pair of silver high heels for $10 at a shoe store. 6. the shoes are for a wedding that i am in at the end of the summer...all we had to buy were the shoes, and she didn't even care if they were all different, as long as the color is close. 7. tomorrow i am going to the friend's wedding shower in her home town to be the "gift recorder" lol. then i am going to her town where she lives now to go to a "keg party" that her soon-to-be in-laws are throwing for her fiance (and her), so she doesn't have to be "by herself" with him and all his "drunken jackass friends" lolol. too funny. should be interesting! ps. numbering was off, so i decided to go with 7.... |
Ddr1135 | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 04:26 am     1. I was amazed to find nobody posted in here since Friday. 2. Today I should be getting an armoire back that I lost in the divorce shuffle. (It's not needed anymore, so I'm taking it back.) Yeah!!!! 3. So that means moving one bookcase into my son's room, moving the other bookcase into the den downstairs and putting the armoire in the living area. Lots of shuffling around to do. 4. Thinking it maybe a good idea to delay my manicure until all this is done. 5. This morning I woke up a little groggy, went to kitchen to make my coffee, started reading on the computer, went to get cup of coffee and poured myself a cup of HOT WATER. Arrggggghh, I hate when I do that. 6. Hope that is not how the rest of the day will go.... 7. Wonder how GAL's bathtub guest, Little Suki, is doing... 8. Wonder if Kota is still liking school? |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 07:18 am     1. Thanks for asking about sweet littl Sukii, Ddr - she splashed around in our tub and on her island for a couple of days, and now is being cared for by our local wild fowl conservators. She had been so neglected that caring for her nutritionally was impossible for a couple of amateurs like MM and me. I miss listening to her peeping from the master bath, but hopefully she'll come back to us happy and healthy next year. We won't recognize her, of course, but I'm sure she'll make herself known; 2. We and the ducks have weathered some serious rains lately. I was all worried about them, but every time I looked over the deck to check on them in the massive rains they'd be out in the harbour splashing around having a grand time of it. What was I thinking? 3. It's always nice to know the extent to which you can rely on your partner in times of crisis; 4. It's especially nice if the revelation makes it clear that they're the only one who understands you; 5. When the tornado sirens went off in a massive storm last week, and the weather channel was reporting a tornado heading strait for us right when the power went off, I get the following from MM: 6. "Get the bottle of rum, the bottle of scotch and your cigarettes. I'll get the mixers, glasses and an ashtray. Meet me in the middle bathroom." 7. NOT "hey, my wallet and your purse, a large table to put over our heads, some fresh water and some blankets." 8. We had a pretty damned merry tornadic episode. I guess his point was, we wouldn't care even if it did hit; 9. Meantime back on the lake, Chula Longkhorn has started climbing the stairs and pecking on our glass deck door when he needs a corning. It's like that scene in "Babe" when the goose is looking in the window while Babe and the cat tear up the house. Funny as hell. I came down the stairs the other morning and heard MM saying "what do YOU want?" The backdoor was open, Chula was standing in the doorway. He looked MM in the eye and just opened his mouth really, really wide. I was in stitches for most of the morning. Who says animals don't talk? |
Froggiegirl621 | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 07:59 am     1. I'll try my hardest to do 10...cross your fingers! 2. I'm getting too wrapped up in BB4 and getting nothing done at home. Oh the mess we have here! 3. I've met some awesome people in the CBS BB chatroom. We've become fast friends. 4. I'm getting antsy to start packing for the big move, but since it's still two months away, I promised myself I wouldn't start until the beginning of September. 5. I went to a craft show on Sunday. I love a good craft show. Wish I was that talented! 6. Also went to the lakehouse on Sunday. We were going to take the canoe out, but decided to just sit on the dock and watch the ducks and geese. 7. The geese are HUGE this year, but there are less than the usual number. But less geese means less geese poop in the yard! 8. I bought this GREAT candle while at the craft show. It cost me a pretty penny but smells just wonderful! I have it on a shelf in the laundry room, wrapped in paper, then put in a plastic bag (saving it for the new house, lol) and I can STILL smell it. Yummy! 9. Bought some shrimp, crab cakes, and lobster cakes yesterday...me and the BF are gonna have a fantastic dinner this evening. 10. I made it to 10...yippee!!! ps...Gal, I LOVE your wildlife stories so much, I hope and pray to see a post from you everytime I come here. You should have your own thread! Keep the stories coming. |
Wargod | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 08:06 am     1. We were talking about hurricanes in chat and you know me, CA girl and all, had to ask how people deal with that...someone mentioned drinking, I didn't realize they were serious! 2. Dakota is still enjoying school. Friday she rode the bus home for the first time, and there was some confusion about her bus pass. They had the wrong load spot on it. 3. I told Caleb to make sure she was on the bus, then asked mom to ask her teacher about it...glad I did, because they did indeed have the wrong spot listed. 4. Unfortunately, this really worried poor Kota, so for the first time, she had tears going into class. Luckily though, it was all straightened out. The yard duty aid said that she was glad we caught the mistake and while they would have put her on the wrong bus, they would have found out before they left the school. 5. Both Caleb and Dakota ended up thinking it was the coolest thing. Her because she was riding the bus like a big kid, and him because he found out that he gets to cut in line and get on the bus with the kindergarteners so that they can make sure he sits with her and can keep an eye on her. 6. Today we're going to try riding the bus to school. It's getting to be a hassel for mom to take her, and while I don't mind walking to the school, it's too hot to ask her to walk. 7. I'm a bit nervous, but I know it will be ok. 8. I spent yesterday afternoon in Caleb's class. Several of the kids from last years class all came to give me a hug when I showed up...I almost burst into tears, lol. 9. I'll be in Kota's class either Wednesday or Thursday. I thought if I showed up at the begining of the week, she may think I'm going to be there every day. This week she has a few days and will understand I'm just there once a week. 10. I'm so glad all of the little ducks are doing great. I love hearing about them. |
Texannie | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 08:40 am     1. Yep, Wargod, hurricane parties are great fun! 2. Speaking of, sitting her in the rain, fortunately not much wind with Claudette (i did 2 cause there were 2 10's) |
Hippyt | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 12:32 pm     1.Well,this hurricane was a weinie,not even worthy of a party. 2.Yet,the tv stations MUST have 24 hour coverage of streets covered in 6 inches of water. Ack,no Bob Barker,no YnR,no BB commercials,just water,water and more water. 3.I'm feeling a bit grumpy.(can ya tell?) |
Texannie | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 01:14 pm     1. I agree with Hippy..so tired of hurricane coverage 2. It does sound like Surfside got hit pretty bad 3. My son will be hopefully behind the hurricane when he goes to the Schlitterbaan tomorrow. 4. I am probably having a hysterectomy next month. |
Urgrace | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 06:38 pm     1. Claudette is raining and blowing on us tonight, but Schlitterbahn should be fine by tomorrow. 2. I finished my mural, and now I have to find some nice puter user with a scanner who will post a picture or two of it for me 3. It was just a special thing I wanted to do for my son and I had fun doing it 4. I'm finding the show Cupid to be surprising and not what I expected at all and the blue text here in tvch - what's up with that? |
Texannie | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 10:07 pm     !> I am wondering where Urgrace lives 2> I am so thrilled the weather will be good at Schlitterbaan. 3> I am wondering if anyone wonders what Schlitterbaan is! LOL 4> I can't think of a 4th 5> Has anyone had a hysterectomy? |
Jmm | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 11:01 pm     Psst Texannie, have your son look for a 16 y/o female worker named Bailey and tell her hi. It will really mess with her mind. (She's my daughter and is a lifeguard there) lol |
Myjohnhenry | Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - 12:03 am     1. I hope Texannie sees Urgrace's posts elsewhere (like maybe Floods) that tell where she lives 2. I had never heard of Schlitterbahn until someone posted about it here a while back 3. I recently saw it on a commercial for some show on (I think the Travel Channel) 4. I am telling Texannie that I am a card carrying been there, done that member and she can email me anytime. 5. I wish I was on a road trip and/or being treated like a princess in a fairy tale like some here in our tvch family. 6. Instead my life sucks |
