junie, Sorry to hear about kimmytoo. I don't know her, but it breaks my heart to hear that another of our bco gals might be losing the fight. I know its hard on you, and others that have gotten to know her. Raising my glass to kimmytoo and to her family and friends, and hoping for a peaceful, painfree time for her. This disease sucks!
jaybird, Bummer that your vaca has to be spent trying to finish up the remodel. Hope you can get everything finished up correctly, and soon be able to unpack things into your new space. That WILL be a celebration!
Pleasant dreams everyone!

I'll take my wine and toast Kimmytoo, echoing eveyone elses words. I did not know her either, but still another wonderful person losing to this horrible monster. My prayers go out to her and her family and friends.
Connie, you got is right. Another really nice thing around here....when we have these great meals and lots of yummy deserts....NO CALORIES!
Jaybird, I too hope you get that all done soon. But hey, if your home.....you can post some pics!
Cloudy here this morning, so it is rather warm, mid 30's. Beats the heck outta 8!

A toast to Kimmytoo! She was a great contributor (and had a great attitude and sense of humor) when I first came here. I'm sorry her journey here is almost over. It's all just so sad but hopefully better things are ahead for her!

Oh Dee, I wondered why I was so whiny this morning....oh wait....I am supposed to be drinking wine, not whining....better get my glasses on.....LOL. Just kidding! Sooooo glad to get your morning pics of what the drink of the day is....brings a big smile to my face, so hope you keep it up! And I bet our TT's will have a nice big selection for us! There is a fundraiser here with gourmet food (of course!), but also featuring wines from Portugal. For some reason they had to get a special permit from our ABC (alcoholic bev control) board to bring in the Port wine from Portugal. But I also learned something...they also are having the Vinho Verde wines....our fav when we are in Porgugal...and I wondered why they never lasted when we brought them home. Well, just found out that stands for "new" green wines....supposed to be consumed within a year! LOL. Those are the cheap, table wines too, but always sooooo smooth and good...when we have them THERE!!! So now I know not to bring those home unless we drink them asap! I miss the island of Madeira and wish it wasn't so darn hard and $$$ to fly there....such a beautiful, laid back island. Well, I will join you in Wine Wednesday.....with some of our wine from Portugal!
SAUDE!

Hi everybody!
MMM the snacks look good NM
I learned a new song tonight and it goes like this:
Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, looking like a fool with your pants on the ground, gold in your mouth and your hat on sideways looking like a fool with your pants on the ground.
Just wanted to share that with y'all.
HUGS!
(sorry, I had a bit to drink while I was watching Idol)

Hey gals! I've been traveling a bunch lately. I got to see my sister in NY, while I was there for work. She looks great. Her hair is growing back and she's getting back her energy (she went through BC last year - May).
My hubby and I went out for happy hour tonight. Woo Hoo! It was fun! Cheers!!!

Kitty, I did not know about your sister, missed that post or it got lost in my chemo brain. Glad she is doing better and that you and hubby got to go out on a date! Darrell and I are going on one first part of Feb. He is taking me to see River Dance. They are splitting up and I have always wanted to see them.
Ahhhhhh.......I figured out what the ruckus is all about.
It's CAZ's BIRTHDAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL ! ! ! !
The socks came to party with us...looks like Our Thunder Boys are here to do a show, woooo woooooo! Lots of Hop Stoopid sitting around. I think we're havin a party!

WooHoo HAPPY BIRTHDAY to CAZ!!!! Looks like we are all wearing our sock monkey costumes....love the pic Lori! PARTAY time!!!! Think I will pass on the Tanqueray though, Dee....I like gin ok, but prefer something else. But THANK YOU for continuing our "daily drink special"....makes it so much fun! Might start early, as soon as we get to TUNICA! Gotta throw some stuff together, get off this puter, and hit the road. Shall I tell "Hunk" that everyone says hello? Not expecting to win big, but just going to have fun. Wish you all could join us!!!! CAZ, I will definately have a "birthday toast" to you!
On The Road Again,
Kathy

Kathy will like that Dee.........she can have some with her diet coke! Or, are you not suppose to do that with JD's?
TGIF girls........town day for us. We have dentist appts and I think we may be going to see the new 3D movie Avitar.
DAMN I'M LOOKIN GOOD! (don't I wish)

Good Morning gals! YAY I like Jack Daniels Fridays....in fact I had some last night....got an early start! Yes Lori, I do like it with my diet coke...my fav is really the cheaper Seagrams, for some reason I love that taste with coke, but when out I get either Jack D, or Crown Royal...figure I should get the premium stuff if its free (like here in the casino)! Had a nice lucky run on the blackjack table last night, so as of now I am ahead....sure hope that will last! Hope the dental visits go well. My DD had to have a root canal yesterday....was her first cavity;...but her new dentist kept cancelling the appts, even after the xray showed she had a cavity....so when the pain started he just presc strong antib....and STILL cancelled appts...she finally got in with a new dentist this week...and the cav was so advanced now that she had to have a root canal..that sucks...I am hoping she will at least report the other "dentist" (I hate even calling him that..LOL).
Wish you all were here, we are having a great time!
ChEARS to TGIF, AND JACK DANIELS FRIDAY!!!!
Kathy
edit: Its after lunch now, but just had 2 frozen Top Shelf Margaritas....yummmmmmmmm! Going to eat in the gourmet room tonight...can't wait!

While I greatly respect that it's jack Daniel's Friday hear in the TTL, I just have to share the bottle of Raspberry Rain wine I picked up today. This is a wonderful, sweet, dessert type wine that is made locally--the winery is only a 45 minute drive from my house. Raspberry Rain is made in limited amounts, so even locally it's available only intermittantly. I found a bottle when I went into the grocery store to grab some stuff after I got my shot today. So, JD lovers please forgive me while I have Pants and Jocks pour out some wine for those who are interested in a taste of summertime in Maine---

NM, enjoy the Rasberry Rain. I don't think Junie will want to have anything to do with any type of rain after this last year...LOL! I myself, am going to enjoy a nice cold Coors Light while paying a bill for $664 to my dentist. I paid $333 two weeks ago. Seems my dental care exceeded my maximum limit this year....thank you chemo, and radiation. That's what my dentist said caused my teeth to go to hell anyway. I do not do whiskey of any brand, as I had a "date" with it in high school. It raped me and left me for dead. I can't stand the smell of it. I do have a little love for the gin now and then. Keeps the mosquitos off of you anyway! Happy Friday night to all and hope everyone of you gals are feeling fine. Kitty, your a new cat? Jaybird...is vacation over? Cheers to those frisky on whiskey! HunkyD
Edited to add: GO Kathy GO! Being ahead at a casino is a real plus....have you spotted Hunk yet?

Hey, Hunky, I didn't think about Junie and rain! Oh, dear. But I'm sure she'll forgive me since the TT Tenders will bring her whatever she wants, and I'll have them put it on my tab. Oh, boys! Please put a bucket of Coors Light next to Hunky's desk, would you? And you can put the beer on my tab, too. So sorry about the dental bill, even sorrier that you had to go to the dentist at all (another one of my phobias). After that I'm ready for a second glass of wine, boys. I'll be floating in the pool when you've set up the other ladies. . .
Here's to Friday and Feeling Fine!

Evening Gals!
NM, I'll have just a taste of that rain please. It sounds yummy. And I think you better have the boys leave HD's bucket if CL's by the pool. Next to her desk might not be a good idea....lol.
Kathy, glad you are having fun and ahead even! Whoooo hooooooo! Go get em and win some more. That is really too bad about your daughter and her tooth. First cavity? Holy Cow. My mouth is full of silver. But so sorry it turned into a darned root canal instead of just a filling. My dentist gave me a script for some flouride toothpaste for me to use. Due to the damage from chemo and rads. He said it will help me keep my teeth in a better condition. Have you seen Hunk? I must say, you do much better than me with checking in while away!
Jaybird.........well what did you get accomplished on this vacation? I'm not seeing any pictures! Do you think we hound you enough?
HD, Sorry to hear about whiskey experience! (altho I found it rather funny) I have had similar experiences, but not with whiskey. Slow Gin Fizzes............have never had one since! But I am not one that is frisky on the whiskey either. I'm good with my beer, a little rum on occasion and love my duck farts. I do have a bottle of Tequila Rose in the fridge, that I bought over the holidays. That is quite yummy!
Oh yeah, we didn't have time to do the movies...maybe next weekend.
Hope everyone has a great week end!

Hi Gals!
NM, That Raspberry Wine sounds sooooo good! I would love to try a glass of it, if there is any left! Is it made from the frozen grapes? I was wondering if it tastes at all like Ice Wine?
HD, That is TERRIBLE about what happened to you with the whiskey. I don't blame you at all for not wanting to drink any of it anymore. There are enough other spirits to enjoy! Sorry about your high dental bill...yikes!!! YES, I saw HUNK today and gave him a hug, and saw the newest pic of his baby....6 mo old now....was born the day after Junie and I met and had our pic taken with him!
Lori, Sorry you didn't have time for the movie...I was anxious to know what you thought of AVATAR....seems like it is getting good reviews. The only reason I can check in so often is cause we have the netbook with us, and I figure that when I am in the room on the puter I am not losing money in the casino....LOL. Well right now I am still ahead, but who knows how long that will last!
Well, I have celebrated tooooo much...had to have the Jack Daniels, the Top Shelf Margaritas with Patron and Grand Marnier, White Zinfandel, and ummmmmm I think maybe a nightcap in a bit...maybe some Baileys and Tia Maria......hope they took all the calories out of all this!!! They are spoiling us with this lounge that has all the premium liquors!
Okole Maluna,
Kathy

still sitting in my little corner of the hot tub! No pruning allowed in cyber space (and bladder is always empty!). But, getting out now to try some of NM's Raspberry wine--I'll just ignore the "rain" part! It sounds so yummy!!!! Missed CAZ's BD while veggin' out--so, belated happy birthday!!! BIG grrrr on the dental issues--could write a book........am seriously thinking to have them all pulled and go with dentures!!!
On a brighter note--lovely weather last couple days--ice all gone--opened a few windows for a bit today to let in some fresh air.......ahhhhhhhh...clean fresh air and a cold ML !! wunnerful!!!
hugggsssss to all!!!

Goldie, I accomplished not strangling Avery when she totally acts up and is a brat!!! I also cried a lot thinking I'm a bad mother for getting mad at my 3 1/2 year old................
Yes, I owe some pics but since you didn't like the size of the last one what am I to do to satisfy? I'll work on it, I promise. Maybe by the time she's 18 I can do a retrospective?
Off to bed, motherhood is tiring. (what WAS I thinking???) Also, constant hot flashes are doing me in lately!
Cheers.....

Awwwwww Jaybird, come here and let me give you a hug. Then I might have to B-Slap ya. You are NOT a bad mommy. Wait til she becomes a teen, and as cute is she is! THAT'S when you will want to strangle her! So, don't be so hard on your self. I know that toddler age can be trying, but you never get it back, so really .... try to enjoy it and remind your self of this when she is being a naughty 3 yr old. As for the hot flashes, I can relate! As for the pictures. When you save them, are they small like that? If so, then there isn't anything you can do about it.
Kathy, glad you got to see Hunk! You did tell him we all said hello? Sounds like you and Hubby are having fun. As for checking in, I usually take my laptop.....I just don't ever get around to it! When are ya's heading home? Hope you can keep the green stuff on the rise.
Junie, let us know if you get all those teeth pulled. I'll send one of the boys out to get straws, to have them on stand by! J/K, sorry you have had teeth problems. No doubt caused by chemo and rads! And glad you finally got some nice weather. Especially since spring is just around the corner. Do you get, you know, that "R" word.......in spring? AZ gets wind, and none of that ....you know.....that "R" word!
Hope you all have a sappy Saturday..........HUGS!

Pity party's over - let the real party begin!
I'll work on the pics. I only downloaded the one directly from my camera then clicked and pasted here, didn't use photobucket. I'll try again. I've recently switched laptops so no old pics on new one, no pics at all, and no pics on desktop. Oh, it's so complicated! No wonder I drink!
Anyone here seen Avatar? I have an offer to see it tonight but I'm not sure I want to? My date cxld, he sorta went all bizzarro on me (what is up with men these days???), so I'm free tonight and my g/f is going and invited me.
Cheers and Happy Saturday!
