    Kat u started a job yesterday and finally finished it today. YAY for u-More than u thought it would be tho.

    NM OK I was wondering how could u possible do that if u haven't before, it has to be perfect--Oh I remember doing it too, but I never was interested so nothing sank in and I know it's big work in fact none of us put things up for the winter like our moms did. We enjoyed the fruits of there labor, not ours.

    U gals are way to ambitious for me----I made scrambled eggs for Joey this morning and he helped me--well he doesn't eat scrambed eggs unless I make them according to him it's like a little bit of heaven. So I can now (for him) make grilled cheese, fried green pepers and scrambled eggs (sounds like a book) better than anyone he ever met. So that's the only person that I aim to please now so I'm OK with that.

    Hoping Dorky is doing OK, if anyone hears let us know.

    LOL about that bench. Was doing the painting today in the shade of trees, so the light was dappled. Until we moved it back up on the deck I didn't realize I missed areas from re-doing it with the brush....SO had to paint some more. (But it does look good now). Wrecked my back, so could hardly move after that. FINALLY 2 dbl strength tylenol kicked in, good thing, as I sure couldn't just sit all night, too much to do! It pisses me off that my back prevents me from doing so much that I want to do, and that I used to do. Chit, chit, chit!!!! Not from the RB though, just from over-use.

    Glad you had such fun with Annie, Becks! I get mine tomorrow night.

    Dorkie is putting us through h3ll, waiting to hear from her!!! Might even drive us to drink.....ya think???

    Oh I love hula-hooping, actually bought 2 a yr ago, but sorta hard to do inside as have to watch out for breakables. Its like riding a bike, might take a little while to get used to it, then it all comes back. Let us know how long the instructor says to do it for....she lost 90 lbs....wow!

    Yeah, we never knew what those songs meant! I think you're right about Ring Around The Rosie, Becks. And so many decisions could be made with either "Rock, paper, scissors" or "Junk And A Po" (that might be a local Hawaiian game?). I think our imaginations were more vivid then too, didn't have computers etc to entertain us. Could do a lot with a stick, it could be a sword, a bow, an arrow, etc. And playing cowboys and indians....Hmmmmm maybe all of that led us to drink!

    Haha! Junk and a Po? Curious....how did that go? Did you ever play Ding Dong Ditch? What did you all call it? (I think Californians played "Knock Door Split")



    Cyn, just keep it spinning on left wrist while drinking with the right! I don't even know if I can still hula. Better yet, could I ever?? Hmmmm. Don't worry, I won't spoil BB.

    I'll let you know Kat...the hoops that work best for me have water in them..makes them heavier and they are bigger than the garden variety hoops they sell for the kids at Walmart for 5.00..she custome makes them and sells them for 40.00....classes are 15.00 so Im thinking every week or every other week and practice at home..outside...of course. 

    Life was simpler when we were young I think....anyone know what London bridge is falling down was all about?  Cause I think its still standing..

    Morning all.

    DH still stuck in England, visa could take until Sept 5th, then he will start his 28 day work rotation.   Praying all goes well.

    Furbabies story, three weeks ago Ben (the bad tempered Jack Russell/Beagle) attacked Gunnar ( the really soft Pitbull/Rottweiler) who finally bit back.  Result – three stitches for Ben.  Ten days later stitches removed.  Next day Ben attacked Calva ( soft Dogue de Bordeaux) Result four stitches for Ben.  Ten days later, (Saturday) when removing stitches vet nicks Ben who the bites me. One butterfly stitch for Ben and two butterfly stitches and a tetanus shot for me.

    Cost so far 100euro vet bills and 50euro hospital bill.

    Are you keeping up.

    Yesterday Ben attacks Calva who then stood on him and reopened where the vet cut Ben.  Result – one butterfly stitch repair - thankfully not serious.

    Ben has been sleeping in my bed since the first instance.  2am Calva and Gunnar get jealous and start whining and scratching at the bedroom door.  Ignore this and all goes quit for about an hour, then they start again.  Give up and let them in.  Result – they slept peacefully on the bed.  I DID NOT.

    Get up at 6am – find reason for the hours reprieve – two bathtowels, one chair throw and bottom of door frame eaten.

    My three dogs all got on until Sinead moved in next door with her aggressive Jack Russell. When he starts barking it winds my three up.  If I let them all together her dog attacks Gunnar and then Ben. She had promised to get him neutered but now says it’s all Gunnar’s fault. (Always blame the Pitbull).

     Vet disagreed and said that her dog has caused the imbalance in the pack but obviously she knows best.

    So my darlings – right now I am seriously P***** OFF.

    Good morning, Loungettes!  Well, the Farmer's Almanac is out and this is supposed to be a bitterly cold and very snowy winter.  Of course, I think it predicts a very cold and snowy winter every year.  The local weatherman I watch is having fits about it, he does every year and it's actually funny.  The co-anchors are teasing him mercilessly!

    ORLA--shopping spree, that's a good thing!  Sounds like you had a great time, key swapping and all!

    Cammy--actually, I was thinking it was a lot of work, too, but it really isn't.  Making the sauce was the most work, and I did most of that the day before and then finished simmering it down on Sunday.  The rest of it is mostly boiling water and setting timers.  It's no more complicated than the timing of cooking a typical meal, really.  Just uses a lot more water!  And there are all kinds of recipes and instruction booklets and websites.  Plus I have my Mom's canning recipes.  It ties up the biggest part of a day, but no more so than baking break.  Sounds like you are a Joey chef, for sure!

    Karen--sounds like she's got it right!

    Becs--care to share any smoothie recipes?  Good thing to have energy! 

    CynCyn--apparently I was only mildly entertaining, nothing outrageous, except for finding a pair of gripper sox in my purse Saturday. . .

    Wahine--I've got a coffee mug that says "Coffee comes from beans, beans are vegetables, therefore coffee is a vegetable."  I've got to dig that one out and start using it again! 

    BBBBernie--DH still stuck in England?  Yikes!  Still praying for the visa and work and for the time to pass quickly for you.  What a saga for Ben and Calva and Gunnar.  And you!  I hope your DH's dog doesn't visit often, oh, I see the barking gets yours going.  Hmm. laryngectomy for DH's dog? 

    OK, gotta get ready for work.  Latah, Loungettes!

    Well NM I'm glad u got thru that canning stuff, now u'll have good stuff during the blizzards.

    Ok I think we'll hear from Dorky today so--we have to check things out.

    Kat are u'r g'kids coming today, or tonight--how is that working for u and what time is surgery tomorrow.?

    Oooooh yummy Kat, a “Chipendale” bench!!!  And then I had to laugh to myself about your comment of it being sooooo long and brown. So sweet that your other daughter wanted to come and be with her sister. You did a good job raising those girls Katrinka. We fly out on Friday.

    NM, you got a lot of sauce put up! Good for you, you will love it. I hope all of your seals were successful. It was nice talking to you too, would have liked to talk longer, but I know how it is when you are canning and have time constraints.

    Cami, I had to call NM just to make sure she was doing it right, cuz if it’s not done right, you can get botulism. I have learned a lot this year. One of the real important ones, was that you can’t can spaghetti sauce, unless with a pressure cooker, for which I don’t  have. I was going to do it the way I do my tomatoes, but that is a big no no, as not enough acid in the sauce after you add all of the other vegetables, hence freezing it instead.  But she knew what she was doing and didn’t need my advice after all. But at least we got to chat a bit.

    Lara, I am NE of Phoenix, about 4 hours.

    Funny what the 8 yo said Karen, pretty much sums it up, but gosh, ya gotta ENJOY all of that.

    Whatcha got in that smoothie Becks, that’s giving you all of that energy? Did you go to the casino? Sucking eggs is no good.

    Cyn, I only get those foods when we go out to eat, but seems a lot of the time, I will get chicken, go figure! Or ribs or steak, something I make at home. What’s a hooping class? Never mind, I see the answer! 90 lbs., WOWSA! And hoops filled with water? And yes the London Bridge is standing, in AZ!

    Pretty interesting chit about all the bad songs that we would sing to the kids, never really thought about it! Have not heard of Ding Dong Ditch or Knock Door Split.

    Oh dear Bernie, you have had your hands full, my goodness! Did Sinead just get this dog, or has this been going on for quite some time? Sounds like her fur baby is a bad influence on yours.  Praying that DH gets that visa.

    Karen, hope you can enjoy your first day back at work.

    Thinking of our Dork and hoping she is doing well. Thinking of you too Kathy, tomorrow is a big day. Praying for your daughter. Will you be able to be with her at the hospital?

    Ended up going for a ride yesterday, but just here at home. Explored an area that we had not been to, so it was nice. Then later in the afternoon it POURED! I just hate it when it does that, cuz it just causes problems. Forgot to tell this last week.  I had a customer return a $10.00 item, for which it cost him $13.00 to ship!!!!!

    Yummy MonKey Dey DOTD, Lori! Sounds yummy, and fattening, but NO calories in the HTL Dwinks, so we are ok there!!! We get the kids tonight, after my DD's and SIL's taekwondo class, and I think my g'son has a scout troop meeting tonight. Yes, I will be at the hospital tomorrow with my SIL, and my DH will keep the g'kids. Not sure what time yet, they are supposed to let her know today. Thanks for all the prayers!!!

    Cyn, I got the weighted hoops too, bigger than kid sizes, at the sporting goods store, but I am sure her custom ones are MUCHO bettah! I had to get 2 till I got the one I like the best. (Actually bought 3, but the 1st one was the smaller size, so gave it to my g'dau). It is FUN, but I forget to use them. Esp with a class, you will enjoy it so much more, plus learn some neat moves! AND gets you motivated to keep going to classes, hence more of a workout. Good for you, when does it start?

    Haha, now I got interested in finding out about the "Junk and a Po" we said as a kid. You are right, it is a version of rock, paper, scissors, but in HI our version came from the Japanese game, we pronounced it as "Junk and a Po, I cannot show"...but in Japan it was ""Jan ken po, Ai kuroshio." Which then morphed in HI to, "Jan Ken Po, Ai Kono Sho", then finally to....the "junk and a po, I no can show, (or I cannot show)." Then if you both got the same thing, it either was something about bombs, etc. I know it went on and on, but I can't find any more words by googling.

    I heard from Dorkie!!!! Got an email....yay!!! She thought she had sent more emails, but that was the only one I got. She hopes to go home tomorrow, is all doped up from the pain meds, and they wake her every 2 hrs. BUT it was so good hearing from her!!!! Yippee!!!!!

    Boy NM, you and Lori are so good at putting food up for later! Awesome! Big job, but you will surely (or as Dorkie would say, "shirley") reap the rewards.

    Bernie, YIKES! Ben looked like such a sweet little guy,but so much aggression lately. Hate it that Sinead's dog may have started all the confusion and biting. And for YOU to get bit too! Wow. Too bad they tore up so much stuff when they were "quiet" for awhile during the night. Those rascals! I can just picture Calva sitting on little Ben though, and Calva is sooooo big! Hoping for the work permit for you DH! And soonliest! My DD2 has her neurologist appt on Sept 5, so I am anxious for that day too...then she will prolly know when HER surgery will be.

    Becks, YES please share some smoothie recipes!!! NM, I just put a little milk, a container of fat-free lo cal vanilla yogurt, and frozen blueberries (about a cup) into the blender and its sooooo thick and sooooo yummy. I love that one so much I haven't tried anything else. I read somewhere that you could put peanut butter in with yogurt and milk...and maybe it was a little honey too...I forget.

    Okey Dokey, Hope all you girls are doing well today....I got up late as usual, cuz I took xanax so I would sleep!!! Going to take my dad to his skin dr and nope to get the downstairs cleaned up...I only did projects and ignored the housework!!! LOL.

    Big Gentle Hugssssssssssssssssssssss,

    So glad you heard from Dort, Kathy. Glad they are keeping her doped up and I'm sure she will be doped up when she gets home too, due to all of the pain, which I hope is minmal. Praying that your DD will also have minimum pain. Her surgery will be on her neck? Glad you will be there with her, I know that will be comforting to her.

    I'm still envious of your CHIPPENDALE bench!!! Wink

    OK u'r going to be very busy this week especially my prayers (as u know) have already started and will continue for u;r DD1 and u too---I'm sure this is tougher on u than u'r own crap--I'm so sorry--but when u get a chance please keep us up to date on u'r DD1--we all so concerned.

    Thanks for the birthday wishes Kathy, and the cake and the boyz. I know you will be with me in spirit, as I will be with you tomorrow. Big day tomorrow for sure, fand I'm sure your DD must me scared to death, I know I would be. I will be thinking more of you and your daughter tomorrow more than myself, for me it's just another day. I will only be a day older than I am today!

    May God watch over and guide those surgeons, and your daughter, to keep her safe and cancer free. We need an NM prayer or one from Dork, which we know she is recovering, so she is excused!

    NM? Would you mind?
