1. I'm glad Cyn knows about doggies talking in their sleep!

2. I'm either killing threads all over the board, or someone has organized an official Whoami boycott. Is it something I said?

1) I am curious to know how Cyn's day went..

2) I am left handed too..but ambidextious..I use a right handed mouse..(pssst twinkie..left handed people are better able to adapt in this "right handed" world than right handed people being able to adapt to "our" world..myimage)

3) I adore Whoami and cannot think of anything she could say that would lead us to boycott her..

<thanks zmom! I just hate it when I go into thread-killing mode!

1. My dog is currently snoring on my toes.

2. I figure that's as good a reason as any to not get up and do the dishes like I should have sooner.

3. I can't disturb him, right? So my dirty kitchen is all my dog's fault!

4. I adore you too ZMom!

1. Growing up we had a wood burning furnace...wood was our only source of heat.

2. We would spend a good part of every summer gathering and cutting wood.

3. We had a massive woodpile and would form an assembly line from the woodpile to the basement window...sliding piece by piece down this ramp into the basement.

4. I can operate a chainsaw!

5. I can build a great fire!

1. I still have a counter full of dirty dishes.
2. I was too tired last night to do dinner dishes.
3. Found out this morning after giving Dakota her bath that the tub was backing into the sink.
4. Darren got the tub unstopped, but the sink ain't budging.
5. I fear I'm going to have to call in the experts, an adopted "cousin" who's into plumbing to fix it.
6. Ok, one more, I'm very scared to hear what the verdict on the plumbing is...my across the street neighbors had the same problem Monday, I don't want it to be a big problem.

1. Zmom I also use a right-handed mouse.
2. I play all sports right-handed.
3. Cyn, I also lived life at break-neck speed as a teen but only wrecked 1 car. But had many accidents surfing.
4. I love Who and would never boycott anything she did or said.
5. I'm hoping War's plumbing problem is easily and cheaply fixed.
6. I find that many people who think they are in control are usually very out of control.
7. I think that a few words of wisdom means a lot more than a lot of words of nonsense.

Cyn

Wednesday, January 08, 2003 - 11:09 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
1. I think what little words we have of Ms. Avery right now have changed all of our lives for the better.
2. I have sailed, kayaked, canoed and cruized in race boats and partied on yachts, but never surfed.
3. I think plumbing is scary and I hope War's problems are only irritants.
4. I am balanced - but not necessarily in control due to the external influences in every second of my life.
5. Yeah, I got the new grown-up responsibilities and new power boots to go with it.
6. I am ready for this at this time in my life.
7. I talked to my mom yesterday and conversation was light and cheerful for the entire 30 minutes.
8. It is a fact that I think Twinkie is cool.

Twinkie

Thank you, Cyn! I happen to think that you are an awesome and very cool person and its my pleasure to know you and I hope we meet very soon.
Somehow I feel that it is destined for us to be friends seeing the way we were "introduced" to each other. A very small world indeed, huh.

1. I said goodbye to my older brother last night.
2. He deployed to the Middle East this morning
3. He did his best to keep our talk upbeat and positive;
4. I'm ashamed of myself for crying, he didn't need to hear that and it was selfish of me
5. I'm frightened for him, but he doesn't need to hear that, either
6. My parents are taking this the hard way, too
7. My dad said he thought all those years he and his brother put into the service would prevent their children from ever having to go to war
8. I guess even in the most war grizzled families, this kind of stuff never gets easier
9. I'm so grateful I have this Board on which to vent, otherwise I'd be less able to be upbeat with my parents in the off-time
10. I hope everyone's family members stay safe during whatever this is that's coming up
11. Sorry this post is such a downer. More feeling sorry for myself, but at least Resort didn't kill the thread.

Thank you for the welcome Goddess, Whit, and Square!
Note to self: stay out of the political threads, and try not to do any biting in the BB thread!

Square, I love aubergine (sorry, I will learn to do colors.) So does my DGD. When I buy her clothing I almost automatically go for the aubergine, although it doesn't match her red hair well, lol. But a little girl needs clothes in her favorite colors, no?

Whit, I'll check out the adoption agency thread. :)

Welcome Cheri! Jump in and post, its the only way....a hint, post to the dog thread! You will instantly have something to talk about.
I've stepped in doo-doo in the BB threads in the past, it comes with the territory.

{{GAL}} My husband is a vet and very patriotic, my thanks goes out to your brother, and I really mean it.

Cheri

Thanks everyone! Everyone is so nice, I love this place! Webkitty, I will post to the dog thread this afternoon, you all will probably get tired of me and tell me to shut up! I'll write about my dog's new "trick".

1. It's almost time to make lunch for dh, so until then I'll post a few more facts.
2. I don't know whether to do 15 or 1 though.
3. Since I'm already at #3, I reckon I'll do 15!
4. I live in Tennessee.
5. I love it here, I was born and reared in Arkansas, which makes mees a redneck.
6. I's proud to bees a redneck.
7. I can understand Whit's wish about the big M, and hope it comes true for her.
8. I picked up my pooch from the Vet and can't believe how well he's doing.
9. He's not even limping!
10. Webkitty, my husband's a vet too, he retired from the Air Force. He's also very patriotic.
11. My son is a carbon copy of his Dad, so he gets his love of the Air Force naturally.
12. He told me when he joined a year ago he missed the AF way of life.
13. He's doing so very well, and he's as proud of himself as we are of him.
14. My mother had 3 daughters, then 2 sons, then nine grandsons. My two granddaughters are the first girls in almost 40 years.
15. I told my mother that after my sister was born, she prayed too hard for a boy!
and 16. I hope I'm not boring anyone.
