Let's take the bus and go rescue Jaybird!! Jocks has volunteered to drive.
Rainy and cool today--no boat duty. Perfect day to just be lazy.

OK, I am ready to go. Can't wait for the "wheels on the bus go to go round and round"! Kathy, I think our bus has some special options for water, etc. that we don't know about. I am just boarding and saying buh bye! I will call work and tell them I will be back in about a month. I am still healing. AStorm, will you be leaving your teens at home? HunkyD

YEA - a rescue!
I'm doing better - perhaps it's the Moscato?
My company didn't exactly 'lose' us (although it does happen occasionally), it's just that our trip didn't show us at the proper hotel. We started out here at a non-scheduled hotel then changed to our normal hotel but our trip wasn't updated. So, we're leaving tomorrow - yea! We're going to Atlanta instead of New York but at least I'll be home tomorrow night (hopefully!) and not have to be away from Avery and the dogs for any longer. Two people on my trip had planned a day trip to Como tomorrow but are now eating all the food they bought for that now for dinner. Let's hope the volcano doesn't wreak anymore havoc this week!
Well, cheers to all!!!

HD-- yep, that's why it has wheels... We're leaving it ALL behind. No room in this bus for teens, broken appliances or pain. No limitations for minor hurdles like the Pacific Ocean. No pool, but you guys are going to love the jacuzzi!0

Sounds like fun; count me in too!!!

Jacuzzi? The bus has a jacuzzi? Can I come? I don't care where we're going, so long as Jaybird gets rescued. I love jacuzzis! Especially one with a Kahlua Sombrero on the rim.

First stop - rescue Jaybird. The bus IS a destination.

Well since I'm a few days behind, I am gonna do my reply in word then copy and paste it!
Dee, that Friday Freeze sounds real yummy, gonna have a few of those.
KK, HRT is Hormone Replacement Therapy.....oops, I see Kathy explained. Thanks K!
Gail, you have to have a photo bucket account, or one similar to load pictures on BCO. If you know how to email pictures you can email it to me and I will do it for you.
Kathy, SOOOOO glad DH got positive results.
Jaybird, hope you're enjoying Milan. Hmmmm, child age 3.....I think she could probably help do something! Like K said, she might enjoy it.
Oh wow Gail, you got full over haul on appliances, it seems! I hope nothing else goes out on you. We have a tankless water hearter, they are pretty neat.
Junie, like I said before....you have the best stories to tell. Getting on the wrong train...OMG that is funny! And yes, I would go on vaca with ya. Haha...Solly Cholly, is that a play on sorry Charlie? LOL.
Handing Junie and NM buckets.....for all that darn slobber. Really not a pretty site!
Jaybird, hope your sadness has subsided. I actually try to avoid watching the news...just because of that, and there's nothing I can do about it anyways. I am truly sorry you didn't get home when you were planning. I am sure that sweet little Avery misses her mommy too.
HD, good luck this morning at the docs. I hope you are feeling better. I have cast iron sink in my kitchen and copper sinks in my bathrooms with rubbed bronze fixtures. Don't know if you do Ebay or not, but you could try there for the faucets and maybe even the sinks, but I think shipping would be too much for a sink. I did get my copper sinks on Ebay.
The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round......! I say we let Jocks drive and take Candie also. She can drive when Jocks gets tired. I'm on board. Jaybird here we come!
How about Tootsie Rolls today or anything with Kahlua. We can help Junie and NM empty their bottles!
My tests went fine, of course don't know anything and my back is killing me from all the outside work I did yesterday, so leave room for me in the Jacuzzi please!

Lori -- Glad your tests were fine.
The best part about tankless is when my daughter decides to take a 30 minute shower I can go to the garage and turn it off: instant cold water, end of shower. Mean, but green.
I'll send you photos.

I was going to suggest a Blue Monday because I used to drink them when I was much younger. But when I looked up the ingredients I couldn't find a recipe that sounded right. They are pretty, though.
I, too, have been struggling with my emotions for the last few days - I wonder if it has anything to do with all of the drugs I have to take. My husband is down for the count because of the spring - his allergies are literally off the charts. And he's got a job interview tomorrow - so I'm letting him sleep right now.
I'm glad all the tests are working out and sorry Jay is stuck in Europe. I am so on board the bus with everyone and we'll all catch up on news of each other then!

Havin' fun on the Venga Bus with everyone....jaybird WE ARE COMING to get you!!! We sure are getting loud though...I think we might even start singing...
We like, we like to party
We like to party
We like, we like to party
We like to party
I've got something to tell ya
I've got news for you
Gonna put some wheels in motion
Get ready 'cause we're coming through
Hey now, hey now, hear what I say now
Happiness is just around the corner
Hey now, hey now, hear what I say now
We'll be there for you
[Chorus]
The Vengabus is coming
And everybody's jumping
New York to San Fransisco
An intercity disco
The wheels of steel are turning
And traffic lights are burning
So if you like to party
Get on and move your bodyetc.
So hang in there jaybird....."We'll be there for you"!
Happy Monday (sorry for those that are feeling low right now....maybe the singing will help....or not!),

LOL AStorm about the hot water shutoff! Oh, we too had a young one who seemed to try to take morning one hour showers! Really was irritating.
Kathy....count me in on those feeling emotionally on the lowlife side. So am prepared to just:
Hop on the bus, Gus
I don't need to discuss much
Just drop off my key, Lee
And set myself freeSounds like we are on a runner! I will have to be at work now on a limited basis, but I know this is a magical bus so that won't be a problem, and Jaybird.....we will be there before you know it if you are still there! XXOO HunkyDory

LOL! Oh, how I SO need that Magic Bus right now! I'll have the likker lined up and ready for y'all!

Ok everyone a board that's going a board.....or shoud that be abroad? (is that how you spell it, looks funny) Anyways here is "The Bus". We need a name for our bus girls. I think it should be related to Gail's signature name (astorm) Maybe "STORM" or HURRICANE"...everyone put their thinking caps on.
Hopefully this will help our gals that are feeling in the dumps.
Jaybird.........we're on our way!
LMAO @ Gail for turning the tankless water heater off......good one mom!
So as HD said...."Hop on the bus gus...." But I think we will have LOTS to discuss, and gonna set Jaybird free!

Wow, it looks even shinier here! Jaybird, focus on the bus... positive visualization...

I love the bus! Roadtrip!!!!
My obgyn said no HRT because I had BC. But, the gyn onco was on the fence about it. We'll see.
Enjoying a glass of wine with my DH right now. We heated up the pool this weekend! In a few weeks I won't be able to go into the pool! Oh well. At least I'm getting this over with!
Cheers girls!!! Let's go for another cocktail!

Can't wait for my rescue!! Taking drink orders now, I'm sure you'll all be very thirsty by the time you get here! Prosecco? Moscato? Birra? Let me know, the grocery store is just across the street.....

Is it Friday yet!?
I am at work in body but not in spirit for sure. I need a pick me up this morning. Maybe I will do a coffee/kahlua drinkie poo this am to wake me up...yawn...going back to work now. I am going to have to go back and see what's going on with the bus roadtrip..where we a goin'? Y'all have a great day!0 -
Does coffee and Kahlua wake you up? It makes me need a nap... maybe Kahlua : coffee ratio is too high!

Woooo Hooooooo.............I'll have one of everything Jaybird. Just got a call from doctor office. NO EVIDENCE OF CANCER! How how I love NED!
Dee, we are going to rescue Jaybird, she is stuck in Milan because of the volcano.
Big celebration today for me, we can have a Par Tay on the bus!0 -
YAY! Great news Lori. Hang in there Jaybird!
Cheer up little sockmonkey, skip work ... we need to celebrate with Lori and rescue Jaybird. She has prosecco, moscato, and birra. Which sounds better?
0 -
Lori--congrats on good scans--always a relief to hear NED's name mentioned!
WOW!!! That is some ride! AStorm wins sweetheart of the month award for sharing it with the HTL!!! We need to think up a whopping perfect name--we can christen it with some Spanish champagne when we get Jaybird picked up!
Maybe the creative juices will kick in after a couple buckets out at the pool!!!

AWESOME BUS!!!!!!!!!
How about the Astorm BC Buster Bus?
The Snow Storm Dorm?
Tempest in a B/C Cup?
Thunder on the Road?
0 -
mmm, cava.
The best thing about the bus is that it is always here for us. All you need is Internet access. So, Jaybird, hop on already!

Congratulations, Lori!!! That is awesome news.
I had a checkup at the dentist yesterday and he did a routine check for cancer. It meant something more to me this year than it ever has before. I want professionals to check under whatever hood they are specialists in and make sure I don't get it again!
ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, sorry, got carried away there. Just assure me that my two dogs won't follow me there!

YAY Lori!!! Fantastic news!!!! I will help you celebrate, in a few minutes. Thanks so much for letting us know!
How about "Venga Bus" like the song? I love that song...when we are driving to the casinos, we change the "We like to party" to "We like to win money" So its 'We like, We like, We like to win money". Or "HTL Road Trip"?
Just got back from taking Maverick to the vet....he has arthritis....$300 vet bill...pills are $100/month. But SO glad it isn't something that needs surgery...my DD's dog in TX is at the vet right now, and may have ACL...if ligament is ruptured, then it looks like surgery. I am so glad Mav will be ok....it broke my heart to even think of losing him.
Jaybird, if the airline tries to fly you out today, be sure to tell them you are waiting for us to rescue you in our bus!!! Boy, saying that would prob get you lots of time off....but not for the right reasons....LOL. Thanks for saving so much wine for all of us!
Well.....gotta start partying soon.....gonna celebrate Lori's good news! HD, hope you are feeling better....Dee, hope you were able to stay awake today....and hope everyone else is doing well....TIME TO PARTAY!!
Kathy

Yea for Lori! Everyone loves to dance with NED!!!
(:::::happy dance:::::)
Let's dance and drink and whatever else as it's great to be alive and it's great to have wonderful friends and it's great to see family when you haven't seen them in what seems like forever!
Still waiting on the bus but if you take too long I'm just gonna hop on my airplane and get home by myslef. I'm thinking I'll be home late Thursday night.
Had a fantastic meal and some delicious Italian Cab for dinner tonight. We were all celebrating (14 of us crew and a regular passenger who managed to get on our flight just by chance by seeing us in the hotel for 3 days!) the fact that we are all on our way home tomorrow - yea!
Cheers!
