    NM, did you go to the ceremony? I hope you and Sadie are enjoying your weekend. Oh gosh, I don’t usually have the energy for housework during the week either.

    Cami, I might try the relish without the red pepper. I guess it’s worth a shot.

    Julie, back her scrubs….YEEE HAAAA!

    Katwinka, me dwinka to your good check up, glad you are ok. I guess you didn’t get your mammo

    results yet? And I hope you did NOT stand outside for your shower, especially if it was lightening. Those fruit bars look very yummy!

    One time when we were doing a trade show, an elderly man came in holding some little dog, maltese or similar. It was a medical dog, but I was so curious as to what this little dog was capable of doing. Well, the man was a diabetic and dog was trained to know when his sugar was going outta wack. Now I don’t know if the dog only knew when it was high, or both, but thought that was pretty neat.

    Awwwww Becks, hope you get to feeling better and very soon.

    Woo hoo on finding the $150 Lara, cute story.

    I think we should have Joey to bring us all coffee this ayem! What do ya think goils. And maybe NM will share her blueberry pancakes. That is just so interesting about your Katie Cat, I hope she just knows you are in pain and to stay away from those areas. Also hoping you find something out tomorrow. I think it’s tomorrow.

    Well, we rode our quad over to our friends house, only to find out they were waiting on 2 other couples, one of which were late, so they said lets go over to the Lakeview Bar, have a few beverages while we wait for them and then we are all going to Darrell and Lori’s!!!!! I’m like WHAT???? They are all biker peeps, some kind of redneck. Well anyways, I think we ended up with 5 other quads following us back to our house. The guy (that we knew) wanted to show all his friends our little town and what they call my “deceiving house”. We did have a good time tho. Glad my house was clean. We got a new seat for the quad (did I tell that already), so when the company left I had to go over and see my little buddy, who is up for the weekend, so I could take him for a ride. Well, we didn’t go far, so not gone long, but it was enough to break the skin on his elbow, I felt horrible! I will see him this morning, as I think they are coming by to get some maters, he LOVES my cherry tomatoes and I have no use for them.

    To ALL Vets, and that means you too Kat……………MANY THANKS!

    Juliet & Wahine-- I didn't go to the ceremony, I had planned to but just couldn't get into the car yeaterday.  Just wanted to stay home and veg in the hammock chair and read silly scifi stories.  And play fetch with Sadie. 

    I'll have to see if there is  a Body Shop around here.  Are you talking about Bath and Body Works?  There's one of those at the local mall. 

    Goldie--some diabetic detection dogs can detect high and low blood sugars I've heard.  Pretty good trick, huh? 

    Coffee by Joey and Blueberry pancakes from Maine, sounds like a great breakfast!

    NM, I hope you can find the Outshine Bars....Not the Coconut Waters one but the regular Coconut one. I searched my area, and it is avail at Target, Publix, and Walmart. I didn't have your zipcode handy, so didn't get to check where it might be near you. Love what they say about the SAND! lol

    CREAMY COCONUT

    Creamy Coconut

    Go tropical without getting sand in your shorts.

    Thank you, girls. As I told you, I would NOT have gone off to fight, so I don't really feel like a veteran. The hardest part was not seeing my babies except 2x, in 3.5 months of basic and advanced training. Oh yeah, NM's blueberry pancakes!!! My Dh makes some good banana pancakes too, maybe we can try both? Love the DOTD!!!! Plus, of course the mimosa fountain and percotini fountain are going full force!

    Oh Cami, that really IS scary, how KatieCat is acting around you, again. So sweet that she is so gentle though. (((Camille))) Hope your pain lessens today, I really do hope and pray for that.

    NM, When you wrote about the smells in the "body shop" I was picturing a car body shop and thought you were being sarcastic, or funny! Cause of course those smells are awful. THEN I read further, and had my "aha" moment! lol. YES, those nice body shops are wunnnnerful, they smell so good. Glad you got good deals, Julie!

    Lori, the mammo for me is now "manually done", and he said all was ok. Cannot have the regular ones since my boobs are gone, but they feel around I guess for a bump??? I dunno. But of course since the skin could still harbor cancer cells, they like to check it. Glad you got the extra seat, and I am sure your little buddy had so much fun, the bumps and scrapes were not a problem. He is lucky to get your cherry tomatoes. We love them! My DH makes an almost instant spagetti sauce, using drained seasoned canned tomato chunks, and cherry tomatoes, olive oil and basil. Just have to heat it for a short time, and put over angel hair noodles. YUMMMMY. It has become my fav 'sketti sauce as its all tomatoes. I don't even like him to add mushrooms or meat to this one, as it tastes fantastic as it is. (I "think" that is all he adds, but come to think of it he prolly adds garlic too).

    Dorkie, That man that Lori mentioned that had the dog that could sense when he was having sugar problems, is a GREAT IDEA! Could you check that out for YOUR father? Maybe call a Senior Center, or ask his doctor, or do an online search about what you need to do to get him a dog like that? Esp since you found him passed out, I am sure he would qualify. Please check that out, if you can, ok? I hope he is doing better!!! AND I hope you are coping with everything ok....you sure have a ton of stuff on your plate!!!! (((((Dorkie)))))

    Hope everyone has a good SunDey FunDey!!!! I had a shot of that Irish Cream we got in Ireland, but now I can't think of the name...better than Baileys though! Gonna get those pancakes, those drinks, and those Tendahs.....

    Good afternoon, Loungettes!  The house looks like a house and not a pig pen, 2 loads of laundry done, 3rd ready to go on the line.  Sadie is fetched out for the moment.  Been vegging in the hammock swing, reading until the batteries died on the Kindle. 

    Wahine--that popsicle looks good, I'll check out Walmart later.  And no reason we can't have blueberry and banana pancakes, and even blueberry/banana pancakes! 

    Cammy--I sometimes do the appetizers for a meal too! 

    Wahine--Now there's a show I wouldn't mind seeing! 

    Juliet--I'll have to look for the Body Shop around here.  Is the sale still going on?

    Karen, My DH said he saw them too, but didn't see what type....he was there right before I discovered them.

    Trying to ketchup on NBC shows I missed when our stooooopid satellite company DID NOT renew with NBC, so we didn't have that network for a few days. ANYWAY, I am watching America's Got Talent, and I think this show aired about 4 days ago? BUT this one performer was SO awesome,  I wanted to share the youtube link of what he did, with you. AND he did all the video as well as he was the performer in the videos as well as being onstage. Howie begged America to vote for him to WIN the competition and it is still a long ways away, he was that good. Here is the link, for Kenichi Ebina http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpS3G60hq4U

    Hi CyndieLouWhoNeedsToDrinkHereMoreOften! Hmmmm....well those bars are just 120 cal and first ingredient is skim milk....but I didn't look at how much sugar is in them. OK, I just looked online for ya, and its 18 grams of sugar....that is prolly too much for you, but I don't know bout all dat stuff. If thats not too much sugar, and you like coconut, I think you would like it. Its in todays wallyworld ad for $3.27/box of 6 but target had it for $2.99.  Good to see ya here! OH look, Sugar just brought over a bucket of ICY COLD NATTY'S!!!! *kachink* Cheers!!!!

    Bath and body works have great deals with coupons and good candles too and buy one get one on that too. But I cannot find a fragrance that I really like and when I do it disappears in aroma so quickly, just in the last couple of years. It's like my skin resists it. And I always enjoyed my perfume. like I do my jewelry and make-up hahaha I'm such a fashionista.

    OK ladies I have to leave at 8ayem so I'm glad it's early to get it over with.

    Good morning, Loungettes!  Happy Monkey Day!

    Morning, Karen!!

    Wahine--isn't it annoying when the satellite company and the networks can't play like good children?

    CynCyn--Yup, fresh Maine wild blueberries in the pancakes.  They were GOOD!! Good info about Bath and Body Works, will check that out, too. 

    DorKable--don't let the UFO forget me! 

    Becs--Talk to your MO about switching to one of the AI's .  I couldn't tolerate tamoxifen, the depression was SO bad.  I had more joint pain and stiffness on arimidex, but it was worth it to not be crying all the time. 

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is

    Sea Monkey Martini

    1 1/2 oz Pineapple Juice

    1 1/2 oz Skyy Infusions Raspberry Vodka

    1/2 oz Black Raspberry Liqueur

    1 oz Cranberry Juice

    Glass: Cocktail

    Garnish: Orange Wheel

    Pour pineapple juice into a chilled cocktail glass. Add the remaining ingredients to a shaker and shake with ice. Strain slowly over the pineapple juice and try to keep the two layers separated. Float an orange wheel for garnish.

    NM, not a thing wrong with staying home and veggin, I hope you thoroughly enjoyed it, I’m pretty certain Sadie did.

    Cami, he didn’t really scrape his arm, it was just resting on the arm rest, which is just a hard plastic. He is ok, and we will know next time. Nice handsome choice for a BF Cami….LOL. You are on your way to de docs, will be wishing you all the best and awaiting your return. Praying for answers for you love.

    When do we set sail Kat? Ooh la la, The Men of Paradise! I watch AGT, Kenichi is pretty awesome.

    Cyn, sounds like you are getting the biggest bang for your buck. No Body Shop or Bath and Body Works around here! Jes Wal Mart………LOL.

    Lara, how is your pain issue doing?

    Dorky, jes poking yer pretty lil head in de door ain’t gonna cut it girl. Git in here.

    LOL on the chest bump Becks, neither of you could prolly feel it! Good luck on re-thinking your sichiashun. Ok, I’m afraid to ask……………..what’s a peep pole? I hear ya on the “Drama Queen” bidness, it’s not fun, dat foa shoa.

    Spent most of the day outside, so needless to say, mese kitchen a mess this morning! Here is a visual on the Sea Monkey Martini, sounds devine!!!!! Will be a nice way to start the work week.

    Wahine, you are not getting abc? Time Warner cable doesn't have it either out here. WTH goin on?



    Goldie, peep pole is short for people. :-) (gotta work on my Chinese)



    Cami, wese being so quiet. Sorry for that hiccup! We are waiting on pins and needles.



    Yes NM, I think I need to try AI. May take me six months to get off this damn Effexor. Need to make a big effort to tough it out and get off the 37.5 I am still on. Hope I can just

    get back on Zoloft. I am tired of these emotions all over the place.



    I called in today. My long story....a coworker left and my boss asked me to take his spot. I told him I don't need the benefits and still plan to visit hubby in future. He said ok and he would see what rate if we change my status and I can at least get some PTO. Well...he hired someone on friday and didn't even talk to me. At least give me a heads up...chit!



    Imma go back to bed. BBL lub, lub
