how about drinking?

Claire- sorry I missed dinner, I fell asleep. Darn this gal can sleep some major hours.
I was up this morning by 5:45 thanks to WD1. That is alright though as it is going to get very hot again and I can try to get some work done in by back yard. We got hit by a terrible storm last night. There may have been a tornado a town over as the wind just ripped up trees along one street and several ended up going through homes. Thankfully, no one was seriously injured.
A blind came crashing down in my 3rd bedroom. Darn, the plastic bracket broke. Not a good day for the sun to be lurking in that room. I just shut the door for now until DH can help me. I am getting all new windows next week so the blinds will all need to come down and be cleaned. My renovation man has been ready to install for a week but I wanted more time to recover before having all the noise and heat with the construction. This is my treat to myself and I am using funds from my cash-out refi. My Dad had told me when I bought this home in 2002 that although the windows were beautiful, they were cheap and leaked air. I am looking forward to having all new windows. The new ones will have the cross slats in them which add a nice look. I hope I am up to pulling down all the blinds and cleaning them sometime next week. Hmmm, is that what I am supposed to doing while on disability? I will just get help from DH in taking them down but I really think I can handle taking them all outdoors in the early am and cleaning them up. My sister helped me wash most of my curtains in the house so that is done.
I need to get my home in shape for a VIP visitor in just over a month!!
So I am talking alot again. I am bored. DH is working all weekend and DD has just left with her father to go up North and visit with her grandparents. I wish I was up for the drive. It will be a pleasant surprise for my FIL as he is still in the rehab facility and all of his grand kids are going to surprise him for a visit. My BIL is going to talk with them about moving into assisted living. So very sad as my MIL is in such great shape and does not want to let go of their home. Sad times.
I am going to hit the chapel first and pray for many people including our own Junie. Something to be said about our HTL chapel, seems that the prayers are working. I think I will wander to the HTL pool for a bit. I think I will be drinking iced tea again today. I can sense that my liver is enjoying a break from the booze. I really should not mix the pain pills and likker as I do. Once I am off the pain pills, I will take a few days to really detox. Until then, it is pill time!
Kathy, thanks again for all the updates. I hope you are able to step away from all this and enjoy your time with your mom and have a great day. Yesterday's news was definately encouraging. I have chills down my spine thinking about what I was expecting vs the news that you gave us. God Bless Junie and may He look after her and keep her breathing until it is time for her to awaken. I love you Junie, always will.
Cheers my ladies. What is everyone doing this weekend? Anywone wanna keep my company?

oops, I was so busy babbling away that I bumped into Stanzie and Kathy. Good morning ladies!!
Stanzie, I stole the idea of sneaking into Junie's room from RW. I may be doing alot of running back and forth to Arkansas today, hmmm, what else can I bring to her room? I think we should def have Hunk on standby so that he is there to wait on her. We can get him in scubs in no time :-)
0 -
Oh yes DorK....HUNK might definately get her to wake up! Or at least be a nice sight to see. And yes, he can wait on her, hand and foot. How nice that you are getting all new windows! Do you mean they will have the grid in them? Mine all have the wood grid on the inside of the house, so sometimes the don't stick in the wood good and get crooked! I do need desperately to replace several windows too, esp the really large ones....it can even rain in on me if the wind blows against the windows.....so prolly lots of heat/air escaping and coming in there. Are you having them all replaced at once? Big job, just taking down the blinds, etc. You might be able to buy some heavy-duty brackets that will fit your existing blinds. Besides just shutting the door to the room where the blinds fell, you might see if you can close off the vents too. So nice of the g'kids to visit your FIL....what a nice surprise that will be! But yes, sad that they will have to move out of their home. Wonder if all that tree damage was from straight-line winds, or wind shear? Often when it seems there might have been a tornado here, it ends up being from the high wind just in that area. Even before our reallly bad tornadoes that day in April, some areas (our neighborhood too) got damage from the straight-line winds. Scary! Glad it didn't affect your home!!!
Come on Junie, you can do it!!!

Kathy, you are probably right about the wind and the damage here. Nothing more said about tornados. What you said makes sense but I am clueless.
And yes, grids, that is what I met to say. The grids are built into the double pane so no cleaning around them. When I moved here, I was so excited to have all new windows and they tilted for cleaning too. My prior homes had old wood windows. Turns out that the seller replaced them all with the most inexpensive windows made. My utility bills are sky high as compared to my neighbors and I turn everything down while at work while my neighbors I compare with are home all day. I am told they will pay for themselves a few years down the road. Many of the cheap windows have broken, will not stay up without being pryed etc. So yes, this is exciting. I just hope my guy will be able to block off the rooms as we are going to be in another heat wave for the next week.
I have those grids on my slider to the back deck and have to take them out to clean. I do not clean them often as it is a losing battle with my dogs putting their snotty little faces on the glass. I do not miss the mess they made in my other rooms. A year after I moved here, I had a little gate built to keep them in the kitchen. They used to like to jump on top of the sofa and put their snotty faces through the blinds and on the glass and spend the day barking at every one they see. I do not miss that. I am sure they miss it although my baby never had that chance. If only they could behave all the time, they would have full run of the house.
I have 15 windows and they will all be replaced. My contractor expects to take two weeks to finish the job. So enough about windows huh? ~~yawn~~
Kathy, cool that you used to have a beer tap at home. My former neighbors had one in their back room which was an enclosed deck and we used to spend alot of time over there. It was always a fun place to hang. If I was a beer drinker, I would definately have one. Damn, I am craving a hard drink now. I am debating on getting my suit on and just laying in the sun and wading on the steps of my pool. Last time I did that, a few days after my bmx, I ended up losing my balance and falling into the pool. I was taking pain meds and drinking heavy. If I had to do it again, I would drink and drug again. It may not be the healthiest of things to do but honestly, I would not have made it through the pain and depression without help of mind alterning chemicals which I just love.
Hey, does anyone know where I can get morphine on the streets? I can close my eyes and still feel that high. Oh well, I guess I should be happy that I do not need morphine. I am glad to have had the chance to try it. My friends frown on me when I talk like this, wonder why huh?
JUNIE JUNIE JUNIE, love you and am thinking about you.......now WAKE UP, have a beer, put your shade on and let Hunk give you a rub down, your body will need that!!
Until my next rant......
PEACE, Love and hugs to each of you darling friends ♥

Well thought I'd check back to see if there is any more news - so I guess no news is good!
The owner of the location company gave me a brochure on her home which she rents out for Weddings and such so if anyone is curious it is www.villadefiore.com
Wish I had taken more pictures of the photo shoot cause I know I won't get any real photo's. How annoying.
Oh gosh the whole front of my house are the windows that were put in in 1922, gosh do you think they leak?? LOL, I can walk by and have my hair blown.... sigh. But oh my cannot even think about how expensive that would be.... They are so totally painted shut it isn't around the windows it is the glass panes themselves and all individual panes but they are that beautiful old wavy glass ..... so I don't know seems like it would hurt the house's vanity.
Oh, DorK was it you who asked why my ghost's name is George? His name is George as that is his actual name. George Ulrich Steffner. His grandson, who I'm lucky enough to be friends with is also named for him and why I know as much as I do about him. He was a very sweet kind man who loved gardening and loved this old house! George, the living one, said he thought his Grandfather would appreciate me taking care not to change the old girl and how the renovations done to her - well not would would know they are not original to the home. So, I like having him around, I feel looked after and protected. Its funny since meeting George and talking to him about his Grandfather, he and I have found we have lots of friends in common. I've met his Mom and have invited his wife and kids over but so far that hasn't happend yet but hope it will. He is just a nice man and pretty funny too, like him mom. Oh and apparently his friends called his Grandfather GUS. I like that! Thought about getting one of those initial welcome mats but didn't know what initial to use as legally I'm still my married name but don't feel like that is really my name but my maiden name doesn't seem right either so I thought about getting one with a G on it for George and for ghost.... Well, at least it would be a conversation starter.
Went over to help my elderly friends ( choir director) clean out his attic office - yes a bit warm up there... Anyway, their home got flooded horribly last year and they had to move out. During the renovations when the sanded the floors, they didn't close any doors so the whole upstairs got covered inches deep in sawdust and such - horrible mess. Anyway, he is in a wheelchair so it is hard for him to do a lot. As you can imagine can't reach high or low... well, the progress is slow but it is going... yesterday we actually found the wood to the desk! how exciting! He had at least two + years worth of mail and such... tons of empty enevelops and bills just everywhere. Can't tell you how wonderful it feels to help him get organized. And I get paid in priceless stories of his life and memories - What a truly amazing man. When I was in highschool, I was so in awe of him and put him on such a pedistal I was terrified of him, when I think back on that I have to laugh as he is such a pussycat! Actually his wife who became like a second mom to me - well, he calls her "Madam" and she has full control over everything with just this tiny little narrowing of her eyes. I just so adore them, can you tell?
Ok, DorK - obviously I'm bored too. My house is actually really clean top to bottom which almost killed me and I don't dare go out as I might spend money so here I sit. I had hoped my cousin would come over so we could play at the pool but she actually needs to run errands - boo hiss.
DorK - I know I've asked before but are you near Atlantic City or Absecon? Atlantic City is where I was born and my grandparents lived in Absecon and we lived in Linwood - only till I was 2 but visited my grandparents often.
Well, hope there is good news soon. Kathy - a beer keg in the front hall - only you could have one and make it something elegant and the thing to have LOL! Hey any paintings to post yet? That would be something else to cheer Junie up a Wahine Original!
Happy Satuday and Weekend ALL.... will keep checking back......

Hey! Wanted to share too and hope this is okay...this has been a difficult week and thru all my prayers and meditations this music has been going thru my head...it has a certain moodiness and hopefulness, definitely inspired...this is the acoustical version of Mason Williams Classical Gas.

Great post girls!!! Kathy love the cat in the lampshade hat and Dotty that ML on tap is a perfect idea and Junie will certainly appreciate that when she wakes up!
Dotty, don't you be overdoing things while you are healing now.........I'm coming to see you not your house!
I booked my accommodation in London last night as well as my transfers from and to the airport.........two more things to scratch off the list.......oh make that three as I also joined up for the Airport lounge club so if there are any delays along the way, I can always get a cup of coffee and a comfy chair. This long list is slowly dwindling and soon there will be nothing left to do.....just put myself on the plane!
Hoping all are having a lovely weekend.
Love n hugs. Chrissy

Good morning!
Decided I wanted to heal my sore ankle more than do the Seattle Century so off now to do 30+ on the flats. I am so sick of limping around, and I have been aggravating the healing process. Plus I have to write a proposal this weekend.
This is for possible consulting work. What I am really hoping for is a call from the hiring manager at Amazon as I made the first cut! I am quite sure the person will want to talk to me. I would if I had this open position, and saw my resume.
I also need to contact one of my references and brief him. He had encouraged me to apply for a similar slot in his organization a few years ago. It went to someone who had more direct experience.
Beans.....sorry you have been on an eating fest. Makes me feel a lot better, not having lost any weight. At least I am not any larger.
Now there's a thought to get my butt out the door! But after I swing by the chapel to pray for Junie.
Have the most wonderful day LadieZ. - Claire

Stanzie, I am just over an hour from Atlantic City. I will be staying there for a weekend come October. I group of high school friends meet there every year. One comes in from California. Last year we had our mini reunion just two weeks post BMX so I was there but was surly a party pooper. I did have a blast but went to sleep while the rest of the girls went out to night clubs. We have all been friends for so many years but catch up once a year and AC is the place. How cool that your grandparents are from Absecon. I have heard of Linwood but not quite sure where it is other than Atlantic County. Thanks for explaining about George, very cute story.
Chrissy, if you came to my house now, you may turn around and leave lol. I sure hope little dogs do not bother you. I worry that you will have difficulty hopping over my little dog gate, it is just over a foot high. If so, I can leave the dogs outdoors so that you need not hurt yourself getting over my gate. My home is small but cute (I think so). The pool will still be open and I have steps to get in and out. I have a friend with severe disk issues in his back and he came by last week for a swim with DH and he said that water felt very good in cooling down his pain. I can't wait to give you a tour of my town. There is soooo much money in this little town. Many of the Phila. Eagles live here. I just happen to live on the other side of town but it is still very nice. DH is already planning on showing you the sights of either Philly or NYC. Your choice. I was trying to talk him into picking you up in the limo but he thinks it is not called for. I told him I would pay as you deserve royal treatment. But since it is only a hop, skip and a jump from PHL, he will just pick you up. I am currentlly due back to work on 8/30 but I may try to extend that a bit so that I can spend time with you. Even if I am back to work, I will not yet be putting in extra hours or working weekends as it takes time to rebuild my pipeline of loans. I can't believe this is happening and I am SO honored, Chrissy. We will carry on like teens (okay, mature teens) haha!
Claire- sorry your ankle is not up to speed. You are smart to give it a bit of a rest. I sure hope you are back to yourself in no time.
Beans, that was a beautiful piece, thanks for sharing that. Happy trails to you girl friend!
Kymn, I hope your party goes well. It sounds like just what the doctor ordered. I hope you have the best since since the rat bastart hit! Have a good time and do not worry about the clean up. DH planned it, DH cleans up, that is how I roll lol.
So I just had a little nap as I was just plain bored. It is hard to keep me down but I know I have to behave myself. I tried to get onto my stomach in bed and am able to get there but it hurts too bad now. I have a feeling it will not be long though. Me just loves sleeping on my fat belly.
I too am battling the buldge. I can't do much about it yet other than watch what I eat. Honestly, I really do not eat alot it is just that I lack excersise. My stomach looks terrible. I still have one drain hanging out of the fat. Ughhh, next week can't come fast enough. If Mr. Pratt stops draining, he will not make it to the PS office before being destroyed. I have taken it out before and will do it again. I am 5'5" and 140 lbs. This time last year I was 10 lbs lighter. I blame it on tamox, good excuse.
Well I will say my cheerZ for now but I promise to be back for Pau Hana!!! Yippie, can't wait. I sure have a taste for some JD. Hmmmmmm.....
CheerZ!!!

Kymn - Happy BD to you tomorrow and glad you are having fun! Love the popcorn pic, that is so funny!
Claire - good idea to heal the ankle...such great news on the job front! Big giant congrats on making the first cut! And on more consulting work!! Yeah, I had taken off a few, now need to do it again...argh! I know how and will do it. Really don't wanna get bigger.
DorK - AC sounds so fun and getting together once per year is just great, your get together with Chrissy sounds great too! Dang I would sure like to buy you two a dwink...how can I do that from here? Sorry you are bored, but you won't be for long and it's been great getting to hear from you so much! I can't wait till Pratt the Bratt is history too. Uck! Sorry about the battle of the bulge too, it sucks, I jog every day too so really don't know WTF I did this last week to be up. Will just stick to water and low cal pop-corn for a few days...oh yeah, and always save room for tweats & dwinks at happy hour, he he he! I'm 5'4" and 140 lbs so you know I'm just pushing to be an nice round apple stocky tamoxi-fatty (to borrow from AStorm). Really need to be 10 lbs lighter. Maybe it's all muscle??? No, you can pinch an inch (at least) on my tum. Just burns me up how I had gotten slimmer and now back slid...aarrgghh!
Well, still haven't gone up the hill...DH started a quick fix it project and then something went wrong so he's had all kina tools out all day and is not in a good mood...it's hot out, lotta flies, something's outta whack...I'm not mad...I've been trying to help and I think it's allmost fixed now. Gonna try to get at least some hiking in.
where's RW?
Hope everyone is doing okay. My thoughts and prayers are with Junie and her family and all of you. See ya for Pau Hana.

Beans, sorry you did not get to take you hike but glad you are alright with it and helping DH. I am here for Pau Hanna, it is 5:55 EDT here and time to dwink. I know I know, I said I was going to not drink but that darn bottle of Jack hopped out of its cabinet and into my glass. Bad Jack. Yummy Jack.
DH called and will be stopping by just after 8pm. As much as I try to fake enjoying life as a single woman, I get very lonely especially when I can't do anything physical to occupy my time. I just lay around and think of things I could be doing. DH is actually leaving Atlantic City, he drove a former Phila Eagle and his family to the casinos and will be back soon. I love him so much but I am not ready for him to move back in. We still have issues, mainly with my littlest WD. He won't ever admit that he is just not a dog lover but i know in my heart it is true and have always known that. My dogs come first, period.
So whatcha drinking Beanie? Pants is bringing rounds for everyone, we need to work him!!

Yay....I got home just in time for Pau Hana, and I see Beans and DorK, so will join you two! I have been gone since this morning....7 hrs of shopping with my mom! I am tired....can imagine how tired she is. At the last cash register we were at I told the gals she was 90 and no one could believe it....and this is after being tired and on her feet all day! It was rainy when we started out, so I would drop her off, and get soaked myself! Looked like a drowned rat. Discouraging trying on clothes though...if any of you figure out how to lose weight EASILY let me know...yah, I know, it takes work! Darn it! Bad Jack! Bad Seagrams! Bad peanuts! Bad, bad, happy hour! J/K.....thought it was cute when DorK said "Bad Jack"! Anyway the scary thing is, I forgot to take my cell phone, and so NO ONE could reach me all day and I was really scared to come back home....but no calls from Junie's husband, so I will try to reach him after I unwind.
Beans, I hope you get to go on that hike! Sounds so nice. Too bad your DH had all that work to do! I wish it was only an inch that could be pinched on my tum! I really gotta do sumtim 'bout it.
DorK, you know we are jealous that you and Chrissy will be togethah! Gotta take pics, for sure! Sounds like a fun time...maybe we all should come up in our party bus.
Speaking of parties....so glad you are having an early B'day party Kymn!!! YAY! Happy Birthday to Kymn, Happy Birthday to Kymn....and many more! Ya think Pants will surprise you and jump out of your cake? He would if we have a party here, thats for sure. Hope you have a great time at your party!
And best of luck Claire, for the Amazon job! Way to go, on making the cut!
Lori, Hope you are having a good time in Laughlin, and then with the trade show in Vegas! Miss you!
OK....down the hatch....can I have another dwinkie, Pants???? What'cha dwinking Beans? I think DorK is having JD (bad JD, bad J)...... Woo Hooo......Happy Hour!!!!

I would like to dedicate this page to Junie. We love you Junie and are waiting for you to come back to us. Take your time if you need to but know that we are all routing for you and miss you terribly. I hope you are having caviar and miller light dreams!
Junebug, I am here at the casino waitng for you. Hunk said to tell you he missed you and has a big kiss to plant on each of your cheeks. He also has a secret envelope in his pants just for you. I know what he putt down there and I will tell, but please do not tell him I told you since I promised him I would not. It is one million scatch offs and a token for anything else he can give you(tehehe), your call! He has a night of romance set up for you and no expense spared. And this is all DH approved since it is cyber. I think you should consider waking up for him, he is looking depressed in thinking you will not show up. Now wake up Junie. This page is your you.
We love you and we miss you, look down at your feet!

DorK.....believe it or not, I was working! Promised my business partner I would get a draft of a proposal to her. This is due Monday. I got my brain around the rest of the details while out cycling, so just did it.
Will join you at the bar.
So glad I did the easier ride today. I think I will do one near Olympia tomorrow after church. I have never done the Chehalis Western Trail, and it's 20 miles each way. It's also FLAT.
Promises to be the most gorgeous sunset here. - Claire

Damnit, Damnit, Damnit, Damnit!!! Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! This will probably get deleted because I wrote that, but damn it I am so upset right now. Junie's husband called me a few minutes ago and I have been sobbing pretty badly. Tried to hold it in somewhat while I was talking to him, but let loose after we hung up. I just called Lori, and she said a few minutes earlier she just had to order a Miller Lite.Didn't know why, but had that strong feeling she had to do it.Then she and her DH toasted Junie. Turns out, that was right when Junie's DH had called me. Lori hadn't had any beer all day, until just then. Of course, she was devasted to hear what I had to tell her.
It seems that Junie's organs are shutting down....her kidneys and liver especially are shutting down. They will take the ventilator out tomorrow, probably in the morning. Then it is just a matter of time. I still can't believe this. One of my best friends is dying, and the only thing I can do is let everyone know. Nothing I can do to help her, right now. Other than prayers. Maybe a miracle will happen, which is our only hope. I know so many of you here are hurting right now too, anyone who got to know Junie, either online, or in person, will be so affected, and so sad by this. And I hate having to tell you all this very sad news. I wish I could be typing something very, very different, like she was getting better. I don't know what else to say.
Junie, I love you so much, and thank you so much for being such a very special friend to me. I will treasure that always, and keep your memory in my heart, forever .I miss you so much.
In sadness and tears,
Kathy

Okay, I have just left the chapel and am trying to find peace in all this. Darling Kathy, I am crying with you. Lori, I am glad you were with her for her final beer at the HTL. There is something to be said about that and I hope you see the beauty. I can't believe this as I really had hope.But in my heart, I believe that Junie had to surrender and I understand. May God take her as peacefully as possible. I just don't know what more to say. I don't want to speak as if her journey has come to an end but reality has hit and all I can do is say to her is that it was a pleasure to have known her. May God take her soul and give her nothing but happiness on the other side.
Yes, I am angry and I want to shout at God "why, how could you". But I know that Junie knows when it is her time to depart this life. I know she would not want us crying for too long. Being such a humble gal, she would want us to unite and love each other as much as possible.
Until the next update, I love you Junie and love each and everyone of you gals. May God comfort each of you as we get through the days to come. Peace be with you and yours. It is God's call and nothing we can do to change it.
Peaceful thoughts to all....
My prayer:
Dear God,
Please look after our beloved Junie and as you decide if her time on this earth is finished, please help those of use who are grieving on the other side to understand the reason should you need to take her from us. Please help our hurting hearts. Please stand close to her DH and children along with each and every one of us who have loved her so much. I ask you Lord to please hear my prayer.
AMEN

May her journey be easy and the hands of light hold her gently. Junie we will miis you.

HI, Lord, It's me.
I just got an update on my cyber breast friend Junie, and the news wasn't good. I know there is nothing to fear in death, and I trust that You will take Junie to a better place if her time here on earth is done. BUT--I miss her postings, I miss her humor here, I miss her words of wisdom. I don't want You to take that away from me, from all of us here in "the lounge." It hurts. I know what I want is irrelevant, it is Your will that causes all things to happen, and for a reason that only You may know. I don't want my friend to suffer. I don't want my friend to be in pain. I don't want my friend held back from her heavenly rewards. I don't want to lose her from this world and these boards, either. Please send Junie, her family, and all of us here Your peace and comfort. Support us as we go through this time, please make sure Junie isn't hurting or suffering. Please give me the words that will help my sister loungettes through this time with grace and peace. Having said all this, and knowing that I truly mean all this, I also need to say to You--I WANT JUNIE BACK! DON'T TAKE JUNIE AWAY! So I'm not rational, but remember You made me this way.
Love You anyway,
NM

Beautiful words NM, I am choked up. Sending much love to all. God Bless our Junie. God Bless everyone she touched. And a prayer:
God,
Please grant us Peace in our hearts as we wait for your final verdict. Please hold the hands of all who love Junie at this difficult time, mainly her DH, children and family including her bc.org family.
AMEN

All of your prayers are so special, touching, loving, and from your hearts. I really appreciate them, as they are helping me along, also. Still sad, still have tears falling. Junie is truly loved by so many, and all of this outpouring of love is quite a testament to what an amazing person she is. Last night, her doctor assured her husband that they will make sure she is not in any pain. I feel that she will know of all the love and prayers going out from our hearts, for her and for her family. Missing her so much.
With Love,
Kathy
