The lounge has been busy today.....Its already 2012 for Chrissy, Bernie and all the east coast gals!!! Still 1 1/4 hours to go till 2012 in Colorado....DH is alseep on the sofa in his offie where we're watching the Carson Daly NYE show....before that we watched the Bourne Effect...DD has 3 gf over for her own NYE party....2 of the girls are spending the night, the other is going home at midnight....made veggie pesto pizza for dinner...plus DD wanted me to make crispex mix and rice krispie treats....the girls enjoyed a bottle of Merlot Grape Juice in wine glasses...they thought they were so special!!!! They are having fun in the family room......The girls are all in 7th and 8th grade!!! I will stay up till her one gf goes home...Enjoyed a couple glasses of Israeli Petite Shiraz....may still have another glass....the girls came into the office a bit ago....one of the girls goes....did you turn your garage into a hang out!!!! NO...DH office used to be our covered patio....it is now his "man cave"....it really doesn't look like an office...its got a sofa, 2 chairs, TV...and lots and lots of stereo equipment!!! Can I say when he works, he likes to be comfy!!! Then DD tells me that we can officially hate Justin Beiber because he was singing "Let it Be''and ruining the song...and then DD comments on what a good job Sir Paul does with it...now thats a girl after my heart!!! DS went to a NYE party, but will spend the night there...thank goodness he doesn't want to drink and drive....he was telling us all the places offering free rides, taxi's or even free towing home (AAA) to keep people from drinking and driving.......
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2012.....prayers and wishes for good health, prosperity and friendship in the coming year.....Hugs!!!! Karen

One time there was an army camp in India that just received a new commander. During the new commander's first inspection everything checked out except one thing. There was a camel tied to a tree on the edge of the camp.
The commander asked what it was for, one of the soldiers who had been stationed there for a while explained to him that the men sometimes get lonely since there were no woman there, so they have the camel.
The commander just let that go, but after a few weeks he was feeling very lonely so he ordered the men to bring the camel into his tent. The men did, and he went to work on it.
After about an hour the commander came out zipped up his pants and said, "So is that how the other men do it. The soldier replied, we normally ride her in to town0 -

Oh shoot Beans, that is too funny about the baby oil. So sawry to be laughing, but I know you wanted us to! Glad you got it all out and that your DH is ok. You can use the baby oil as moisturizer for your skin. Leave your skin a bit wet/damp after you get out of the shower, put some oil in the palm of your hands and rub it on. You can also try putting it in a spritzer bottle.............and, you can use olive oil too. No bad magumbo in there. Love the buffet and your sock monkeys are poyfect. So sorry about your little lonely tree, that was left at the P.O. Is a cut one, or in dirt to be planted? Good idea from Kathy too.
Katrinka de Drinka..........Sugar is the other wench. Oh what pretty fireworks pictures. As for the sashimi, I think I'll pass. Can I just have the beer? And I see Stella got your snow blower? She is on a roll. I had my cheers wif Junie too. Now you know she would have been having a big ole party at her B&B and our virtual party would have been there too. Love you Junie!
Juliet, great advice for Beanie and the baby oil!

Under da Covers (ha ha, I like dat Beans) Yes, the best. I can just see you running around with one boob in front and one in back.....OMG, funny! Well, not really....but you know what I mean. Oh that is some yummy food you found too!
Hey Stanzie! No hangovers here, was in bed by 8:00, but don't tale anyone, they will poke fun at me. Astorm has not been around for quite some time, and no has heard anything or knows how to get in touch with her. We all hope she is ok.
DorK, LMAO at you, but I always do. "Trouble with a capital C" LMAO again!
Mema, your coffee sounds yummy, as well as your stepson, but gosh, that just seems so wrong! J/K..........would love to see his calendar picture. We will just look, promise!
Wow Stella, you go girl! Got urself ur own Tender! And a cute one at that. Love your dress, you rock in it! UH OH....what did you do to the chapel? Oh dear, that is gonna take you a WONG WONG time to bwow that back up. I know what you are doing for 2012!
Karen, what a cute story about the girls and their Merlot Grape Juice! Glad your DS made the smart decision to stay the night at his party place.
Hi Chrissy! I must have been sailabwating on your time!
Bernie, thank you for all the laughs. I'm sure we have many more to look forward to in 2012!
Well, we had champagne to drink yesterday. We were going to have a weenie roast with champagne. Now, how's that for a party???? Well, I put the champagne in the freezer to get it nice and cold. DH decides he would rather have the champagne today with our steak dinner. Well I get up this morning, and realized I foygot to take de shampane out of de freezer! Big ole party and fireworks in my freezer last night! So guess what I am doing today?

Cheers ma dears with a can a beer in your ear! Haha, someone told me that yesterday. Can ya guess who Kathy?

Happy New Year Breasties! Looks like you all had quite the party at the HTL last night! Hate I missed it, but we were partying it up here. First guests arrived around 1:30 pm to watch end of game, then played cards for hours, while kids played outside. So many drinks, tons of good food. Last person left around 1:00 am, I think, as I passed out on couch. Woke up around 5:00 am, took two pain pills and 800 mg ibuprofen, drank lots of H2O, back to bed. Now laying here with good ol iPad, as DH snores at my side, lol. His birthday is today. DD went home with a friend, so think the plan is to stay in bed til about noon, then go get her. Going to start weight watchers online. Needing motivation, think that will help. Oh, and last night I took off my wig for good! HUGE step for me, as I hair is only about an inch long, and I am a long hair girl. Was taking pics at party, then played them back and thought my wig looked awful, so took it off for good! May wear occasional scarf or hat, but WTH, it will grow. This is going to be a much better year for all of us, I just know it. Will have a Miller Lite today to remember Junie. Cheers! To New Years!!

Allison, I am sure you look as cute as a button without your wig. We are our own worst critics. Congrats on no more wig......do we get to see? Happy Birthday to that hunk of a man of yours!

HAPPY NEW YEARS DAY AND ENTIRE YEAR TO ALL OF YOU! Lowwie I wondered why you were MIA last night...you wuz sleeping! OMG that is something my DH would do.....leave champagne or beer in the freezer. What a mess!!!! And a waste of good bubbly, too. Not envying what you have to do to clean that up! My DH always likes beer and bubbly soooo cold so not only keeps beer mugs and steins in the freezer, but will put beer in about 30 min b4 drinking it, same thing with champagne. I always worry about him forgetting it.....think he only did that once (when I didn't remind him)....and OMG yeah it was a mess just like you are facing. Love your toasting sock monkeys!
YAY, our Allison has a nekkid head....good for you, girl! LIke Lori said, I know you will look cute as a button too. You are gorgeous, and don't need a wig to look good. Hope you don't have a hangover today....that was some serious drinking! I think you drank for all of us, thank you!!!! I only had 2 glasses of bubbly, 1 at east coast midnight, and 1 at our central time midnight. Of course had regular happy hour much earlier! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you DH!!! My god, everyone all over the world is celebrating as he begins his birthday a second after midnight! Awesome.
OMG funny snowman cartoon Bernie!!! Slainte to you today and for all year!!!
Best of the Bestest to all you Bweasties in 2012! We are going to rock this year!!!!

Thanks Lori and Kathy. I had to take a couple Fukitols before actually removing wig, but it felt good. And Lori, hope that champagne didn't do any damage to that yummy container of ice cream, lol!! Gonna go pack up ICONS and go set up shop! Sometime this week may update avatar pic to a new one of me and my short hair. Notice I said I "may" do it, lol.

Good first morning of 2012 LadieZ.....
Sorry I missed yesterday at the HTL, but was super busy. First with the wine that is on its way back to Seattle due to some sort of SNAFU. The wine bar will send it out again. YAY!!! Then the most glorious ride followed by delivering a pudding to a friend. Back here to throw together two quiches....got in a bath while they were baking.....which I took to the wine bar.
The most fun time. Midnight was on the roof deck here with champagne.
I slept in.
Beans.....laughing, but one of the learnings when I was about 20 was THE MIRACLE OF HAIR CONDITIONER. My mother didn't believe in it. What a pleasure not to smell of vinegar, and how nice not to have tangles!!
I was viewing the Jacquie Lawson card and thinking of Lucy. Lucy is the puggle who hangs out at the wine bar. She was my true friend last night when I brought in warm quiche right out of the oven.
Allison....congrats on ditching the wig. I did that when I had micro locks, and as soon as I got some color on them. I looked great in the uber short look. Less so later on, but that is a case of waiting. Now, I am thrilled.
This has been the greatest holiday ever. Nothing extraordinary, but so special. I am looking forward to a great 2012, and wishing everyone the same.
Happy, happy New Year!!! - Claire

Morn all...glad everyone is safe, mayb lil hungover, but safe. I ended up workin my arse off...didn't get home til 3am...ugh.
Allison...how bout a little motivation. I gonna post a pic my DD took on Thanksgiving of me her and my DS. I didn't realize she was going to give it to me for Xmas - 8x10 sized. At 1st I was mortified when I opened that gift. Like, wow, this pic is, like, forever! But ya know...I'm berry berry PROUD of that pic. I have a little more hair now and the bald areas are filling in, so I often don't even wear a hat. Never did the wig thing cuz I have them FREAKIN Hot Flashes n the sweat would jes roll down my face. Hated it! So wore hats so I cud jes rip it off. Picture me in the HTL with a cool, wet, bar towel over my head topped with a BB cap. Yea, real cute huh...LOL.
Well...here it is to share w/all ya all!
Sorry it's sideways.
AND....I promised a HUNKY FIREFIGHTER. Well here he is ...and he is my stepson. Such a sweet, caring soul too. ENJOY!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's gonna be WONDERFUL for all of us....fer sure!

Thank you for that Memasue, you look great! That is a very motivating picture for me. You have beautiful children! Hope you hang that picture proudly. And where can I get one of those calendars???
He's a Hunk Fo Sho!!0 -
To all my darling ladies, finding you all has made me so happy. I cannot do negativity it makes me very sad lady. I love to love, laugh, eat, drink occasionally gamble and enjoy life so F*** the cancer card. If i can make even just one person smile everyday then isn't that what's life is all about. We might never all get to meet but knowing we are kindred spirits is enough. My friend (whom I haven't seen for twenty years) flew over from England for two days just so i wouldn't be on my own for New Year's Eve. True friendship never leaves us.
I would like to propose a toast to Junie, the lady in all of our hearts. A toast to Kathy (women of many names) for introducing me to you all. A toast to all the wonderful ladeez in da hotel. Not ever forgetting de tenders. Henceforth all to known as Bernie's Babes.
HAPPY NEW YEAR - 2012 HERE WE COME

Awwww Bernie, how sweet! Such nice toasts!!! I feel so fortunate to have met you in person, and hope you will get to meet some of the other gals here too, someday. I mean, you live in a beautiful country...we should ALL have a get-together there! On that note, I would like to propose a toast to you (ireland), to Chrissy (australia), and to Kymn (canada), for the wonderful friendship that connects all of our different countries together. Miles cannot keep us apart! (Hope I didn't miss anyone else living outside of the US). And of course, to ALL of us HTL loungettes, for all the love and support, and fun, we share with each other! *ka-chink*
And Bernie, how very special that your friend flew over to be with you! Bet you two had an awesome New Year's Eve!!!
Oh Sue, what a nice picture!! So sweet to have a good picture of you with your kids. And your step-son....omg he makes big muscles look good!!! OK, we will *try* not to drool over his picture. But hey, we DO need a calendar in the HTL, don't we? And lets make it wall-sized!
Ok...I guess a "puggle" is a dog...pug mixture? But.......never heard of that!
I am being very lazy today...beautiful sunny warm day outside, so need to get out there!
Ciao for Niao!
Kathy (or whoever)

Happy New Year Goils!
I need to first comment on Bernie's post. HOW VERY SWEET for you to toast our dear Junie. I only wish you could have come to some of her parties, we had so much fun while her hubby was away. We had hat party's, lamp shade parties and theme less parties but we loved partying at de Junie house. Mese miss her a lot and it is always nice to hear someone mention her name. Cheers back atcha, my dear friend. Thanks again for all de laughs.
I tried to get to all of you goils last night via de Beanie UFO but seems that once I got to Bama, I was too dwunk to keep going. It was Stella's fault, she is the one that wanted Katrinka's snow blower. I am not sure what she planned on doing with it, she is a mess.
I have spend de day blowing up de chapel and I am exhausted. Really though, hate to admit it, I got up early and went back to bed and did not wake up until 3pm! Whoa, that was some nap. I had dreams of mets to my lungs and the dream went on and on and on. I was so thankful to finally wake up to realize it was just another cray dream.
Mema Sue, the family photo is awesome, and your step son, oh my, can you bring him to de lounge? I promise to keep Betty White away from him, she's a ho! Don't tail her me said that though.
I have to get something to eat and make a dwink. Hmm, do we have a DOTD?
Happy New Year to all of you wonderful goils. This is OUR year!
Cheers!
