    Hi Girls,

    Wahine, I never saw your post regarding your DD. You must have taken it down before I got online this morning.  I am praying hard for you and your family.  and for Red's DD also...  with all the hardships and sadness and fear you , Kat you still have humor in you. 

    Did anyone catch the gremlin who stole Julie's post?  

    Glad to see you back Dorty..Cheers!

    Cammi...did you end up making any cookies?  

    Hiya Beans with the halo..

    Hugs to everyone!

    Hiya Cyn===those damn cookies--let's make something with 3 ingredients, we'll have some fun, it'll be easy--Well from someone (me) who doesn't bake it was a feeling of loathing and despair--but we did it and they aren't bad--but to much work and Joey did most of it and we were alone and I'm asking him if the cookies are done??? Well good thing he knew how to use the oven cuz I didn't have a clue, and as we were dropping those teaspoons of batter down as we kept going they got bigger and bigger, the last part I did and he rubbed my back and after rubbed my legs and we both laughed and said Never Again. We can make those already made sugar cookie thing and decorate them, like home made. Chit

    It rained a lot today but drizzly melting the snow and more comes tomorrow so I hope not a lot of ice.

    Lori I know u don't come on til tomorrow, but let us know how u'r DD is feeling please.

    Red I hope u'r DD is doing better.

    And Kat what can I possibly say now.

    Haha...Cammi...it sounds like you had fun doing it...bless Joeys heart.  I want one of him. I would trade in two inconsiderate , rude and obnixious 20ish year olds for one Joey...and I'll throw in the other 20ish yo as a bonus..

    I vote for the cookies in the tube that you slice and bake...right up my ally. 

    Lori..found the tex mex chili recipe on the food network for the Barfoot Contessa...there is so much chit in this recipe it will cost a fortune to make..but I just LOVE it and I was never much for kidney beans and they call for that...its so yummy I cant even tell they are in there..but Im sure the whole house will after I eat a vat of it....its payback time fart boys...hahaha...ok..its late and im punch drunk..wish I was really drunk so I would have an excuse.  I agreed to 1 hour ot tonight because so many people called in sick...they wanted 2 but 1 was all I could do..I effing hate working at night..its bad enough...now rambling..

    3 days till D's bisit....yeahhhhhh!!!  

    Ok...later girls

    NM, hoping you found what you needed for Sadie. Did you ever take her over for a visit?

    SuziQT, UTI left alone and going to kidneys, I think is EXACTLY what happened to my DD. I did talk to her last night, and she is starting to feel a little better.

    Ewwww Cami, beer and Dr. Pepper. Why ruin the beer like that? LOL. Glad Joey is better and hoping everyone else stays well.

    Dort, we are mature? I tink you on de wong thread ma deer! Glad you enjoyed your time in MB and you really shouldn't worry about your home and decorating. Chill out girl, you got your tree up.

    Beanie Baby, lol on the UFO on youse head, but NOPE, no sirree barbarella, or bobarello (whatever Kat says) das a halo. Your DH has da cutes gophur!!! Not sure we will be heading up into doze dere mountains, might be a bit cool up dere, but we'll see.

    Julie, hate those long waits on results. But maybe with the holidays, it will go by quickliest. Oops, I see Cami sayed da same ting...he he!

    Cami, Joey will make it just fine in this hard life. I think he could teach a few others how to be a good person and kind  hearted, kids and adults as well! Funny how Joey said he didn't want to make cookies again, too much work. What kind did you make? My DD is on the mend, as mentioned above, thanks. Looks like you are up EARLY, not in the middle of the night. Good morning love.

    Ok, good to see you have your sense of humor Kat....Kiss under the Missle Toe, lol. Happy to see you, makes me feel better than if you didn't come at all. LMAO, I Googled "sexy guy to make you feel better" to post one for you. Oh mese oh mise, you should see what came up! Had to change my search terms!

    Cyn, I think Aly said it was that Evil Elf that took Julie's post. I mailed that package to you the other day. Large padded envelope. I think it was Thursday. LOL at trading in for Joey, I think we all would, but I have nothing to trade, unless Cami wants mese DH!!! Three days for D, well prolly 2 now. TICK TOCK....LOL! Silly girl, I posted the recipe here for you, well the link anyways! You can use half white kidney beans in it too, I did that the last time I made chili, makes it look pretty too, and was so yummy made with my tomatoes, so much flavor. How much longer for these night time hours?

    Julie, those socks and sandals crack me up! But socks and sandals period just look funny. My apologies for anyone that does it.

    NM, I hope you are all snuggled in and sleeping in. Well at least for a little bit, I'll bet you have to go by Sadie's schedule and how long SHE says you can sleep in!

    Good morning,
    Loungettes!I have finally crawled out
    of bed .Had a very odd dream last
    night.First I was a child wrapping
    Christmas presents , asked step-mom for wrapping paper, had to give her 5
    business cards per yard of paper used.Then I lost one of the gift, and was searching the house and the yard
    (it was summer) for it.Then I was on a
    stage in front of a big audience, I was the daughter of a famous preacher, and
    had to play the role of dutiful daughter despite his constant abuse, made a
    friend and we plotted to escape during a concert, I woke up when the friend and
    I were on a bus but it was on a drive in theater screen and I was me watching a
    movie.Weird or what?And I found out that I'm working tomorrow.And a ice storm is predicted.I do NOT want to be out in an ice storm,
    especially driving 57 miles to one visit and back.OH, well, wait and see, it may not be as bad
    as they are predicting.

    Goldie--oh, well, I
    guess trying Pisang Ambon will have to go on the bucket list for now!

    Mema--I didn't find
    the paperwork but it's been so long that all Sadie's immunizations are due
    anyway, so no big deal.She is now all
    caught up, had a great day at the office visiting and getting belly rubs, and
    treats and even got a little teddy bear to play fetch with and pull apart.She is soooo spoiled, and not just by
    me!

    Nice chicken coop!

    Cammy--"just"
    cuddling is great, even without cookies!Ask my Sadie!

    DorKable--You are
    forgiven for not posting individual notes, we unnerstand.Glad Myrtle Beach was nice and weather
    good!

    Julie--the surgeon
    was whistling Christmas carols while working on you?I'm not sure how I feel about that!

    Beanie--Cookie
    Sugarplum is my Elf Name, using it as my alias this season.

    Wahine--I gagged on
    my coffee when I figgered the Kiss Under the Missiletoe pic!

    CynCyn-- Good
    morning!

    Cammy--I'm with you,
    sometimes cooking is too much works, sometimes it 's a lot of fun!The fun part is the important part.

    CynCyn--Hope the OT
    hour goes fast and isn't too painful!

    (((((Lara))))), oh no, praying it gets better and does not have to come out. You have had such a hard (no pun intended) time since that surgery. My heart goes out to you, let us know, and I am hoping you do not end up in the ER, but better to go there if needed.

    Love everyone's posts, not up to posting though. Will read when I can. Tonight my DD2 and family arrive from TX, and I will have dinner here for them (they are staying in a hotel), then tomorrow will have our big Christmas dinner here, prolly 13 or 14 of us, so I have a lot left to do. Still am very sad.

    Love and Hugs to you all,

    Celebrating the Winter Solstice - all up hill from here.

    Had an excellent time up the north - good friends, good food, good wine. Then went shopping. Half the price up there. Have enough wine to open my own off licence.  Northern Ireland is owned by England, so sterling not euro.

    Drove home In a hideous storm - normally 4 hours - took 6

    Thinking of you all - will try and catch up tomorrow. 

    Sorry, wine sampling going on on on and on

Today at the Nanu Oasis Ranch and Casino which is in Southern Nevada (near Area 51 where many of the UFO’s are) it was 31 outside and 60 inside, so vewy vewy toasty, spachully in a down coat, fleece pants n wool cap n gloves he he he he he.

    Lori I'm glad u'r DD is lbetter each day she'll feel it  little at a time--wow she let that get out of had if she had a UTI.

    NM I thought u were off all weekend--I sure hope u don't have that nasty weather tomorrow, no one can drive all over in ice--U can not go--that's it. All over the south they are warm but to warm for now, expecting a cold front bringing in wicked weather and this is all crazy weather--Snow fine--the rest no.

    Lara I'm so sorry u'r having so much trouble and pain--WTF--I know u go to the ER when u need to so just do it, u shouldn't be suffering like this.

    BBBBernie, what a storm for it to take that long. Well u'r home safe. Just stay that way.

    (((JULIE))) we'l ll wait with u, u know that.

    OH my cousin called today to tell me E-coli is contagious--Chit is it???no one here has caught nything, I can't be--I have to do holidays too. I never should have mentioned it, Naturally people worry, well I don't but others do beside I never knew it was contagious. Maybe she's wrong--tell me ladies. I know I'm hurting there a lot but that doesn't mean  anything, beside there's no way  I think I hve it, being my own diagnostician, I think since my intestine is separated and going up my side when I have a flare up of my D it affects my side, Yes I've had this for 6 yrs. but now that everything is flying all over the place on their own it affecting my whole lower stomach and side. And since my flying organdas are not usually on one's side the effect of pain is felt all around the D circus. Makes sense to me. It's like a side show in there, plus the ring master doesn't have control-so no E-coli--h's guessing. I've mastered my own diagnosis.

    Cammi...I thought E - Coli was a bacteria not viral...I have never heard of anyone getting E-Coli from anyone however I know that H Pylori is contagious...am I right nursers of the HTL?  6 year circus going on in there hu?  I just dont know how organs can move around like that..tho I have heard of it before..I just dont understand how.  Have you still been having problems with D? 

    Continuous prayers for all the DD's suffering right now and all the moms who are worried sick themselves for them.  Really Lori? a UTI..she must be in some awful pain..what are they doing for it?  I must have missed your link to the chili.  Crap..I miss so much stuff...I come in and read and them get a call or do something else then I forget what I have written.  Your drink looked so good.  D's going to make margaritas while she is here but Im feeling like a Pina Colada (sp)...it is 82 degrees here today.  

    Kat, Mema Sue was telling me that one of the tenders at her bar used to work at T.J Carney's here in Venice..thats where we had that piture (cant spell that either) of Sangria..small world hu? 

    Lara, Jeeze louise .....wtf is going on with you and that rash and pain??  You make sure your DH takes you to the ER if you feel really bad.  I pray that this is something that will pass soon and that pain can get under controll.  

    Julie...waiting with you.  

    NM...please be safe in that Ice Storm....that is so dangerous and you have so far to travel.  is it all turnpike travel?  I moved to Maine about a year after that huge ice storm in ....98?? I think...and years after you could still see the damage.

    Benius...What do you mean you dont have a halo???  

    I let the boys take my car...of course they played on my sympathies that they needed to do Christmas shopping..I swear ...if anything happens to my car they will be living in one.  

    No OT today..just the regular sucky shift that I always have....Lori, a new shift bid should be coming out in Feb...I pray that I can get a day shift again.  Have I mentioned that I hate working nights??

    Not sure my DD2 and family will get here in time tonight for dinner....and I made a LOT...but they are still traveling, and weather is awful, very severe....so sometimes they are barely moving. I think they may get here so late, that the severe weather will be here by then, as we also expect it. Tornado possibilities also.  Still getting food ready for our big Christmas dinner tomorrow, and still cleaning. I may try some Washington Apple dwinks tonight, to see if they might be fun to serve tomorrow. Had this in Tunica a few wks ago and loved it, but they said to use a splash of either cranberry juice or grenadine....I only have the grenadine, so hoping it will work. I also found a recipe with equal parts Apple Schnapps, Bourbon or Whiskey, and Cranberry.

    Crown Washington Apple

    Crown Royal® Washington Apple

    They say an apple a day . . . so why not for recipes? This Washington Apple Shot is a little sweet, a little tart — but always smooth and a definite crowd pleaser.

    • Ingredients:
    • Crown Royal® - 1.25 oz
    • Apple Schnapps - .5 oz.
    • Cranberry Juice - 2-3 oz.
    • Combine in a shaker, shake it up and pour over ice. Garnish with an apple slice.

    Oh great I heard about the Tornadoes too, that it's too warm for this time of year in the southern states and a cold front is coming. IDK---Keep safe and I'm sure u'll be relieved when they get there Kat.

    Cyn yes I still have D--it never leaves very long, except it changing it's ways a little --now I'm getting a lot of hurt with it. Never got that before.-haha it's actually 6 and 1/2 yrs and can be very violent, I've lost all vanity about it so that helps a bit. hahaha Oh I still wear depends but sometimes it's not enough. Oh well my little saga continues.

    It's still raining here no ice yet but who knows, I think north of here (not to far) has ice.

    Hope everyone is safe and warm by now---It's not to cold here actually---All crazy weather.

    Well, stoooooopid me when I thot I was gittin Apple Schnapps, I got SOUR APPLE PUCKER....sheesh. So it didn't taste good like that. OK, went to a craft show a few days ago and got some mix to put in apple juice and it tastes like yummmmmmmy apple cider. SO, does anyone know a likker that goes with apple cider? Wodka? I may do a search too, but please let me know if anyone knows sumtin good wid dat.
