LOL, looks like we were playing bumper cars yesterday morn!
OMG Kathy, your DH has to have knee surgery because of the incident on the plane? I would surely try to get some sort of compensation for that, even if it's just free tickets, as I am sure you have insurance. So sorry you are having all these issues with your AC. Maybe you could look online, to see if there are a lot of complaints and then see what others are doing? Did you hear back from the doc? Good job on the packing........Pants, get Wawa a very huge Seagrams n diet pweeze. And make it one that won't hoyt her tummy.
Oh yay, party at da Beans! But I don't wanna do it at HOTH, I want to be there where we can see da mountain in de sunshine. Dat iz jes SO SO pwetty Beans. But that foyst picture sure looks brrrrrrrrr. I hab my lampshade wif ear muffs, ain't dey cute? I think if Kathy's pilot stops by so she can hab a dwink, we might all just hop on dat plane wif her when she leaves, so we can all go to Madeira. I be living out here on da ranch since 2001. In Michigan, we moved out to the country in a little farm town, when my daughter was about 3. Had 5 acres there, 4 way stop sign in town. Daughter is now 29. OH MY, bears and cougars, dat iz skeery. We have mountain lions and bobcats, but I hab nebber seen any, nor do I want to!
Just anudder reminder Mema......NO DUM DUMS! Good luck with that scan, when do you get results? I just hate the anxiety waiting for results of tests, just hate it. Sawry you are habing probs wif da Ortho docs, you and NM is just havin a time with docs. I hope you can find one you like.
Mema, they call that Xerscaping. How big is the area? I'm sure if you went to a local nursery, they would be able to help you, more than I could. I can just think of some things that they grow in Phoenix. Some would be, lantana, bogenvia, oleanders, (I'm sure I'm not spelling these right). So sawry bout da docs and I too hope you find someone. Whatever happened with CTCA?
Kristy, welcome to sunny AZ, we are having some beautiful weather. How long are you staying? Would be nice if you were still going to be there when Mema goes, then the bof of ewes could come to Payson and we could have 3some.....LOL. What hotel are you staying at?
Karen, sorry for all of your stress, and I hear ya bout being bigger than you used to be, but gosh..............how many of us can complain about that one? I'm raising my hand (real high and waving it) Hoping you get all good results back and can get dose bones back in shape.
YAY NM..............you did it!

And din't have to ask for help, AND you get to use the plant protectors.
As long as you get some sunshine, they will work great. I am anxious (well, not for winter) but to try them this winter, I'm going to try and grow some things all winter long with the plant protectors. I know the swiss chard will work, hoping to find other things as well.
Dorkable, so glad you gots ur internet fixed and don't hab to be flustrAted any more. You are cwacking me up, kicking all dese bad men in da golf balls!
Juliet, if you have a patio or deck, you can do container gardening.
I will be leaving in the morning for Vegas and be back Tuesday ebening. Will try to read, but doubt I will have time to post, but will if I can. Kathy safe travels, hope you are feeling better, but I know you and your daughter will have just the best time!!!!

QUICK helloooooooo! Read some, but had to really skim fast, as I have lots to do. Cannot believe my DD is traveling w/ such a small check-in-bag...it is gorgeous and she has all these coordinating fabric pouches for eberythin! Anyway, had her put a few of my heavy things in her tiny bag, so I could get it under 50 lbs! Cuz I have anudder suitcase inside, so we will have room to bwing things back....so it WUZ heavy! But since we return via 1st class, we can bring heavier stuff and 3 checked bags ea...yippee! Prob is, the flt to Madeira, I had to pay for bags, so we are only checking in 1 ea, and has to be under 44 lbs ea. ANYWAY, youse don't wanna hear dat chit. I goofed BIG TIME yesterday! The plane from ATL to Amsterdam (8.5 hrs) was mostly empty so I got us seats in the very back, huge plane...got us both aisles so we would have all 3 seats and could visit, sleep, etc. THEN when I double checked last night the dang plane is FULL...I mean only 1 seat left. WTF????? SO now we are not even sitting together...and she had wanted a window seat and now has an aisle, thanks to her momma! She is not upset at me though, and I talked (begged) with Delta for a couple hrs last night trying to get on diff flight, but since used miles, no such luck. AArrrggghhhhh... BUT we WILL have a blast, just gotta get past that long flt on a crowded plane...hope to get SOME rest so we can do Amsterdam right after that, and before going to Lisbon that night.
THANKS for de Seagrams Lori, Sure needed it!! And Beans, would love to stop by HOTH, but we will be going the udder direction....east to ATL, then east to AMS. BUT I will partay virtually wid youse all, ok?
Gotta run...I mean fly.... Lubs youse, such wunnerful posts, will get to check in sometime, but might not get to read all the posts till April! Will have to pay for internet usage in Madeira, so won't be on as muchly! Keep dwinking and habbing fun!!!!
Love and Hugs!
Kathy

Hello goilies,
I am here for de party, sorry I is late, I had to take de bus, damn UFO.
I am not doing so great, had to leave work just before noon today and all my loans are blowing up as we speak. For the first time in 10 years, I ate breakfast from our company caf and got so sick. I only had a bagel but I think the margarine I used was bad. Ick. Never ever again. I tink it was a comination of stress and the greasey margaine dat I taught was butter when I got it. I should have used de little pats of butter instead of de community butter which was icky margarine. De dwinks hab calmed me stomach but my noyves are still frayed. I have over 100 emails at work and my people are not so happy with me right now. Oh well, dis too shall pass and dis is a widdle ting when looking at de grand scheme of life.
NM, I will be slow in bashing your doc, I have only done two so far. It is a pleasure helping to take dis doctor down. I can't believe that you are not getting a response on that situation and that this nasty SOB is still practicing. I hate him. Glad your tiller started, yippee, I will dwink to dat.
Kathy, have a wonderful time with your DD. I hope you have no issues with flying this time, take good care of those tootsies and bring some good Willie to de lounge for mese and mese fwends, i tink dat a good willie high might hailp me feel better. Or not??
It is cold here in Hoth but de tenders are here with us and will be soyving up some hot dwinks to warm me tummy. Sue and Beanie, yose goils were so funny yesterdey, I is sawry dat I missed dat party.
gotta fly, my DD jest got home and I has to talk with her. Will definately be back later for a partay, wherebber it may be.
Cheers!!

Juliet - I will gladly send you some ice cubes, would you like some gin to go wif it? I will be so hoping your 6 mo mammo is all excellent and no chat wif da ro!!
NM - Spring in Maine looks a lot like spring here, lotta mud and yuck! Hey, I took a pic of my skiis. DH and I got dese at Play It Again Sports a hundred years ago. They are for groomed trails, but I've used dem to groom my own. I would love some mountaineering ones but these have been great for a long time and they really cost peanuts. My boots are newer and real nice Alpinas but cost was under $50. I used to do more hills but now mostly just go on flat terrain cuz I too skeert to fall down and break one of me old bones. So it's like skating kinda and good aerobic exercise and IMHO very fun. Plus you can go your own speed and you can just stop and enjoy being outdoors. Not so hard on da bones as running eider. I would love to teeech!! It is a lot like snowshoeing but more slippy. Wif da poles tho I feel like pretty stable. Love the tandum skiis!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the DOTD!!! UFO's all around, great choice!!!

Mema - have a safe twip to Vegas! BTW I was in town today and was looking for some Almond Roca for my DH as his BD is coming up and I saw a bag of DUM DUM'S and jest started laffing!! I tot of you and da girls here!! HURRAY!!! MEMA DANCIN WIF NED!!!! So so so glad!!! YAY!

Goldie - Good idea to move da party outta dis cold hail! Let's go where Juliet is in Sunny Orlando!! I gotta tell ya today was sunny and warm for here, no need for thermals NEway. I neber see mountain lions or bobcats eder, but my neighbor has. My neighbor has so many neet pics of aminals she's had in her yard. Oh I hope you will have a safe twip too and keep us posted when you have time...I will miss you!!!

Happy saturdey goils!
I is heres and feeling lots better todey.
Mema, a big congratulations to yese for de NED news, I has a beeeeg hug for yese. I so estcited for yese! You done good!
Unde', so sorry to hear dat yer puppy is not feeling goodliest, mese has some prayers for you and yer puppy. De Barbe pic was me yesterdey cept mese did not hab de luxory of de fancy barbie toilet. I had to use de grass outside.
Juliet, enjoy Ebcot todey, you desoyve a bweak, you werk so hard. Hab a gwate dey, you! And a dum dum dwink sounds delish cept de dwinkologists are away from de lounge. Maybe Beanie can bix some up!
where is my Scuby? I miss you and am worried about ya, goil. Please report to de lounge as soon as possibility. I really missed dat Scuby hug and hope to git one in a few weeks from youse.
Beanie, can you gib yer super UFO car to de lounge? Seems de UFO mechanics got dwunk and are sleeping on de job. Wese needs to get de loungettes were dey needs to be pronto and need dat UFO car of yers. Pleeese?
I guess Katwinka is landed? I wuz tinking about her as I laid in my comfy bed dis morning. I did not want to git my arse outta dat bed and just laid dere for an hour or so jusst tinking.
Well I has to go to de pool store with a sample of de pool water. I had de pool boys pop de cover off on Humpdey and de water is really quite nice, the clearest it has been ebber at opening. I can see de bottom of de pool. I tink it because I did not close it until late Oct. And de water temp is not bad. I will know what it is later todey once I bwing de level all de way up to start filtering. I learned how to do dat myself last year and was so proud of mese when I did de start up meself. I saved a few hudrend bucks, it only cost me 90.00 for a service call to have the cover off. I get so sick of dat ugly green cover dat I can't stand it. I hope to have some poolside fires soon, yese can all join mese, okey? Off I go to see de pool doctor. I will hab to tail you about him sometime, we call him teefers! He is not easy to watch when he does his scientific chemical anaylsis. I tail ya after I dwink, okey?
Cheers and lots and lots of lub to all yese wonderful funderfull ladies. Hab a gweatest dey!!

Hi Chrissy B! So nice to see your purdy smiling face. Pants, get de goils free or four wodka dwinks, yippeeee.
I just spent nearly $500 on de damn pool but over $100 of it was for fun tings. I bought de cutliest little fountain dat I hook up from the outake and can't wait to git my water sparking clear so dat I can enjoy my newest toy. Owning a pool is fer rich peeeples and I am far from rich but I make odder sacrifices so dat mese can afford to maintain de pool. Who wants to come and swim with me? I has free memberships to mese stupid klub for all me goils here. I hope dat Lisa can come for a swim once it gets warmer. Dat would be sew fun!
We have been having record warmth in this area, it has hit 70 all week and went to 80 yesterdey. We have had early spring blizzards dis time in years past. It is wild and crazy and I am not complaining.
Karen, tanks for finding me on facebook. Your doggies are adorable, mese was gibbing den kisses on my screen. I hope you are enjoying your friends and dere children on dis day. And I has a hug for ya (Karen).
Is dis de weekend dat our own Lori gets to meet Mema Sue? If so, I hopes you goils hab a blast and will also gib each other huggles from ebberybody.
Well i jest finishesh mese dwinking and it is now time to pull out de plugs from de winterization of de pool, wish me luck on getting dis filter started. If I need help, I will call NM to hailp next week but I *tink* I can do it meseself.

Enjoying the patio with a Diet Pepsi (will save booze for tonight's BBQ-haha) my iPad and a book to read. But just found out it is 81 in Nebraska and 81 in Phoenix! Does that seem fair? Just know we still have an early spring Nebraska blizzard in the works but forecast says 80 all week! goofy weather! Going to a dinnr theatre tomorrow and will probably go see Hunger Games. Wish I would have read the book first, anybody read or seen it yet? Hands are swelling up a bit, not here why. Guess I need to drink more!
