And there isn't an Australian around to get a correct definition. Schoolies are what they call school leavers who go off with class mates for a week or so at the end of their final school year. A toolie, well slang for an idiot most likely male. Nettie, it also has other meanings hehehe. Not sure what Chevy was meaning though.
2nd you prompted me - I need coffee.

chez, if Teka leaves, we have to find all those cute coffee pics. Who's going to keep our motors working?

I think we have come up with every possible spelling for thingamajigs, you know the chachkeys...
Hope everyone is having a splendid day.
I stayed in one of those homes you posted here around galena or Geneva. I get them confused. It was an old civil war cabin. Looked like the three little pigs could blow it down. And was very very expensive to stay in. We had sooooo much fun. Hubby I and the dog. Wish we could do it again soon. Right on the Mississippi, and we kayaked on the Mississippi.
Now I can't remember who has what and not enough time to scroll...so here it goes.
Cami, I hope you are better with your "bladder " today. I think that is it
Nettie, "thyroid " maybe. Hope your increase in meds makes you better. Or exchange name in front if you must. Lol

Chevy, I think you r ok.....I say that loosely...lol

YOU GUYS! When we would go out, and find a place to park, and make-out in the front seat, you DIDN'T park on any old street! You found the "Toolies" !!! All I know is what they told me... Like in a nice quiet place with lots of trees, and fireflys and somewhere like Hernando's Hideaway! That was aNOTHER place that we went! Well, it was better than going sitting in back of Grandma's house, in the alley, and just crossing your fingers she just didn't come out!
Okay.... I googled it, and can't find a THING! So therefore, it MUST be before any of you guys were born!
Nettie! THAT was hysterical! Ha, ha! "little bastards!" You didn't just say that did you? She fits right in girls.... right?
Susay, we can blame everything on Lilshit!
Cammi.... how ya doin' girl? Are you alright?

And we were HERE!
In a CAR, in the WOODS! With the STARS!
And we were IN the Toolies!
Am I the only one who ever made OUT with anyone? In the Toolies?

Chevy, you weren't the only one.
0 -
Nope, you were not the only one. Ah.....the smells of nature, the excitement of it all, maybe getting caught......
Our tea party is going to be Interesting....brownies, ( Garden thx for the being part of this outstanding "pot" luck ) paint balling, a variety of food, crocs, and lots of laughter.
Gingerbrew, good to hear from you ! Hope the dentist appt. went smoothly.
Teka, good luck with the painting, I am messy.
I just got home from hospital, Portia got yanked...on pain pills, so a little loopy, heading to bed for a nap. Boy oh boy, they seem to ask more ? Now. DH could not believe how much they went over.
Feeling like a lost my door bell, looked like a button. YEEHA !
Blessing, thanks for the compliment on my flowers. Yes, you are observant. Lobia & Iceland poppies.
BBL when I am not so clueless, well, take that for what it's worth...lol...

Chevy ,you have me so lost on the toolies...is it like a made up name like chachkeys???
Maybe we all have to eat the brownies to understand the toolies...ha

Or maybe some of these????

Dentist was nice, news was not. I apparently ruined my teeth by drinking Gatorade and caused my teeth to collapse under my crowns.I drank it all the time this past four years.

Phylo! You're back again! When you need to wander around the country go to Chevys. The stuff is legal there, don't want you to tangle with Big Whatshername !!!!!!

ohhhh gingerbread, I am so sorry...didn't even know that could happen.now u prob have many appointments with the dreaded dentist:(
0 -
NOT SELF, welcome....jump on in anytime, hang chit on Chevy or Lilshit or me....tells us a little about yourself. You can see this is a crazy, loving, supportive group.
Alyson, thanks for the Aussie explanation of Chevster rambling. Hope your trip is going well.
Gingerbrew, I have heard Gatorade can be hard on the teeth, but chemo is very toxic on our teeth. My dentist had me come in every month & get a fluoride treatment during chemo. And this is the amazing part, he did not charge me for it. I was so grateful for his generosity. I love to get my teeth cleaned, but like most, Iwould rather have surgery than a root canal.
So, do we have a Bonnie.....?

Phylligrahmcracker is back! Come to the tea party and bring your paintball gun!
I have lots of things to say and no time, but just so you all don't think I'm the only one who sees weird phallus things, (Susan and her water bottle!) this photo was going around facebook today! Ha..ha..

Susan, Toolies meant countryside, away from civilization, remote places, places with few people. Someone might say a person was from the toolies, meaning small town far away. Or you might drive out in the toolies with boyfriend to make out away from prying eyes. Chevy and I must be from the same part of the country or something. Or the same age group perhaps (she's a little older, but only a little).
Ginger, Do dentists approve of drinking anything besides water? It seems like everything else is bad for your teeth, including milk. I used to take mylanta for stomach problems. My dentist was astounded that it hadn't rotted my teeth. Secret was that I hated the taste so much that I brushed immediately after taking it.

thanks wren.....hate it when I'm missing something...lol

Down here, we call somebody who is voluntarily intellectually deficient, a tool...something that has to be watched out for otherwise someone gets hurt.
They have the senior school break-up around November each year and due to the states having different break up dates, 'Schoolies' goes on for about a month on the Queensland Gold Coast.
So you have thousands of newly released 18 yr olds, who are legally allowed to drink, spending their first big break from their parents at the beach, celebrating. Some of them are younger than 18 and they need the older ones to buy/supply them with beer etc,. Although the GC is policed heavily, the toolies (older males who want to relive their own schoolies every year) take it upon themselves to be the suppliers of alcohol and drugs while also gaining access to the nubile young girls who get so drunk they don't know what day it is.
From the news stories at that time of year, it seems to be a continuing drunken riot for the whole week of each states' break up.
I'm glad my kids are grown up and out of all that as I would be a very worried mother if I had kids who wished to attend such an event.
Sheila.

Knew there must be an Aussie somewhere. We do use the term tool in much the same way. Always fascinates me the different uses of words.

Oh MORNing girls! Yes Sheilah, I read about "Schoolies" when I was frantically looking up "Toolies!" Ha, ha! Now see Susan? Wren nailed it! SHE knew! Maybe it was a local thing, but I didn't MAKE IT UP! Ha, like YOU guys did about the garden checharonies!
I remember when our Daughter's were growing up, and so scared about all the drinking and weed, and yes Alyson, those magic mushrooms! Sheilah, those kids were playing with fire, and hopefully no-one gets hurt, pregnant, or too drugged up!
Your explanation WAS funny though... I mean I can understand... MY girls didn't have the money to take off anywhere, like for Summer Break, but I'm sure they found a way to have fun!
Oh! Wren I remember one night, this "Doyle" asked if I wanted to watch the Ducks! So I thought to myself, but Ducks aren't around at night, are they? So we parked by the lake, and made-out.... No Ducks.... nary a one.... And all we ever DID was make out! Nothing more complicated... And so I know all you gals are saying, "Well, you know what SHE was!" Right?
And then we would go back to the drive-in and get a Chocolate coke.
Morning FBB! GOOD one! I sent it to my Daughters!
Now GGHIO, where is notself? I looked and looked! You welcomed her, and I can't even find her! Are you making that up too? That avatar is so funny! Phylli would love that! She lurks sometimes..... armed with her PBG! That's almost like PBJ.... okay, never mind.
Spookie.... yes.... all you guys that are into Willie's stash, just head on over here... I guess it is everywhere.... Me, being up on all that kind of stuff, and extremely intelligent and worldly, should KNOW more than I do about weed/grass/ and the availability.... But I kind of don't want to know.... I wear blinders.
Hi Ginger! I had no idea that Gatorade would do that! I'm more of a chocolate coke kind of gal.... now if THOSE don't wreck your teeth, NOTHING will! But I had to have all my top one's out about in 1975... (when I was a mere child) because they were just never any good... Even when I was a little goil, I was at the Dentist's. He used to give me 50 cents, when he was finished... I had 2 "tusks"... and my whole mouth only held 16 teeth... Not the whatever YOU gals have... So I had "bands" put on my teeth, 4 impacted wisdom teeth pulled, and by the time I was maybe 35 they just kept breaking, and they had to give me new ones for the top. And then that was the best thing I ever did!
I remember this one gal I was working with said one time.... "You are so pretty, but your teeth are so ugly"...... And man, that hurt... So that's when I saved enough money, and had them done, whild DH was deer hunting for a few days....
So see? You can just go in and get new teeth, if the other ones give you any problems. My Lower teeth, all 7 of them, are hanging on for dear life!
Oh LittleGumby, YOU were in the Toolies too? Ha, ha! And who SAID I "might be older?" Are you KIDDING? I am probably older than all of you put together... Ha, ha!

Good Morning ll===OK now we have 2 Aussies so this should be interesting. and of course I'm so far behine and can't remember chit,but
Phylomissgoodie2shoes---that's really nice what u do--now do u cover u'r ankle bracelet so u seem normal at least?
And Chevy what are u turning this thread into-a dictionary? We never cared what we said made up or not notw we're being xhecked and I guess some words aren't really words, Ithought they were.
I hope everyone is doing all right and I love all the pics. Teka we'll miss u lots. if u'r serious
Oh and it's is so so true about chemo and u'r teeth cuz in interferes with bones and there are bones up there.
Chevy I have no fear about bladder cancer--I just want the test to be done right--after all she's putting a little camera upmy tiny pee hole but my problem is I want a whole camera crew, u know light, action camera, and the guy that holds that clip thingy that say pee on--take one and since I'm awake thru it u know I'm going to explain this to her and she'sll wish she put me out like all Drs. want to, but I don't always let them if I have a choice.I've just been in extra pain lately and it spasms and I can't move for a whil, well my upper 1/ can but my lower have has my eyeballs comeing out of my head--this is some newer lately, it's nothing really just aggrevating and what do I do when this happen. I laugh cuz I think OMG is this age or am I crazy, then I know it's both, but I don't tll my DD she's an ER groupy and I'd spend more time in there than at home so I just wait til the spasm leaves, well there's alsway another one coming anyway. So I really stya to myself. And I've been so busy on the phones my top half works, then I have to wait to use the computer so my calls are going in later but they're so nice about it, they don't care, I don't tell them either--OH OH I'm complaining again, why do I keep doing this---I think I want to explain why I'm not here as much maybe This pain is actually affecting my brain. So u know my brain is really in trouble. I'ts 1/2 empty now. But remember no of this is cancer--it is cancer related but not actual cancer so I'm lucky.

Ok, I'm going to ask a question that is probably going to make everyone think I'm weird! And just so you won't have to read the bottom, I finished chemo August 2013, rads Oct 4 2013!
Just wondering if anyone else has had a weird sense of smell? It's like sometimes, out of nowhere, I smell these awful smells, but when I "try" to find where it's coming from, I can't! It's like it's coming from inside. It will be there for just a second and then it's gone!
I'm posting this on multiple sites in hopes to have someone reply!
