how about drinking?

Good evening, Loungettes! I'm sitting here getting dirty looks from Sadie. It's been raining today, and she decided to dig up some mud and get herself thoroughly grubby. So I conned her into the shower and gave her a bath. Now she's sitting in the middle of the room glaring at me. Like somehow it's MY fault! Sheesh!

BBBBernie--ooh, the Baby Guinness sounds like fun and yummy! Thanks for sharing. And for another LOL!

Goldie-- I love the way clothes smell when they come in off the line, especially if they've been rained or fogged on or blown in the wind for a whlie. Love the pumpkin critters, too! And the HTL pumpkin is PERFECT!

Mrs. Vino--Good to see you back! It is hard to ketchup if we're not on every day, isn't it?

Cammy--where did you get that pic of me just out of bed????????

Juliet--I took a firearms safety course yesterday (no I do NOT plan to buy a gun) and the instructor pointed out that women working in Real Estate and visiting nurses are among the most often to be attacked. Just what I wanted to hear, NOT! But it's getting more and more common for violent encounters in hospitals and nursing homes, not to mention drug stores. There actually was an armed guard in the Rite Aide I went into last week. Startling!Sadie, come protect me!  Um, Sadie?  This isn't what I had in mind. . . . 

Goils...I was a bad goil yest.  I did my walk, then got my pedi, then went garage saleing.  After that...I went to bar for 1 dwink....hahahahahaha....DH had to dwibe me home....so now I hab to ketchup!

NM - what great advice... about the shots...and also ref the danger for RE's n nurses! Thank you veddy muchly.  Sorry your laundry got rained on, but as long as no dirt/mud blowing around...I agree that laundry smell mighty good!  Funny story about Sadie.  We had rain again on Friday...lots of it, n thunder/lightning too.  Well, we found out that my Baxter boy is a wuss.  He doesn't like to get his paws wet.  Last rain I caught him peeing on the rug...didn't connect it to the rain tho.  I had never known him to do this since we got him almost a year ago.  But this time...well now I know.  His little sister Bella, she doesn‘t mind the wet at all.  Weird!

IRELAND - HOME SWEET HOME......... The only place where........ • When you were young, you went to bed when Glenroe was over, • If you die from alcohol poisoning, you're considered a lightweight, • 'Feck off' means 'Are you serious?', ... ... • The person that you insult most is probably your best friend, • Saying 'I will yea' means that you definitely won't, • "F*ck it, its grand' means that you
couldn't be bother finish it properly, • 'He's fond of a drink' means he suffers from severe life-threatening alcoholism, • Saying you're going for a drink means you might not be seen again for 3 days, • Crisps are called 'Taytos' and fizzy drinks are called 'minerals', • 'For the craic' is the best reason for doing anything, • The best cure for a hangover is more drink, • Nobody can go a day without saying 'Jaysus', • 'Meeting' has a double meaning, • Tea is the solution to every problem, • And water is the solution to every GAA injury, • "I got stuck behind a tractor' is a perfectly valid reason for being late, • We eat Tayto sambos for lunch, and ham sandwiches on the way to Croke Park, • You can insert the name of a gardening tool into any sentence and it still makes sense, e.g. 'I had a rake of drink last night' or "I'll be out in a minute, I'm just shovelling down the dinner', • GAA is considered religion, • Its perfectly acceptable to call your mother 'mammy' even though you are a fully grown adult, • Saying 'Now we're sucking diesel' means that you are happy with the outcome of the situation, • Drinking 'tae' is everyone's favourite past time, • You're scared of the wooden spoon, • The word 'like' goes in every sentence, • You can say "Any craic' to a garda and you won't get arrested, • 'The dogs' bollocks' means something brilliant...anymore???

Good morning, Loungettes! Rainy and foggy here again, but at least it's warm!

Cammy--the bunny coffee was a latte with foam art, not Bailey's, mores the pity! And I don't mind working hard when I get as much accomplished as I did yesterday. "Cause I have to go to Boston Friday for training this is a short week for me, so I have to hustle anyway. Love the Fox news kitty!

DorKable--Ooh, Pants is going to turn you into a jack-o-lantern? Jock is going to turn me into a Jock-o-lantern, so there! Fun, fun!

BBBBernie--WOW! A whole different language, although I've heard the "suckin diesel" one here in Maine a time or two!

Juliet--Aha! Caught you! Actually, you beat me to it!

Good Morning Dearies!

Love the colloquialisms, Bernie! Fun reading those. You had a funneee yest but when I wrote my long post it went *poof*, so I just didn't try to write anudder one. Hows tings?

NM, How are the fall colors there? Is it peak, or past? It is starting to look purty here, the sugar maples esp are gawgeous. HOWEVER we are going to Gatlinburg for a week in a wk and a half and since that is further north from us and in the mountains, I sure hope it won't be past peak time there. SO hard to *guess* when the fall colors will be optimal, when you make plans months in advance. Love what you wrote to Dorkie....that Jock will make you a "Jock-O-Lantern"! Priceless!! I'm stumped...what is *passoa*?

Oh bernie, now I remember, you did that neat "Baby Guinness"! We have two types of Patron at home here (DH loves it!), but don't know about the one in that drink. Sounds interesting!

DorkAble, Hoping you can REST some today, your first official day off b4 surgery...enjoy yourself at least a little bit,ok? You deserve some pampering...TENDERS....front and center...ALL of you, will you puleez take care of Dorkie today, and be at her beck and call? (But keep her sooooo happy that she won't even need to call ya!)....

Raku, Where are You???

Jeans, Missing you sooo muchliest too. Cami, Julie, Cyn, Alli, Lori, Olara, Chrissy, Sue, and anyone I missed.....HAPPY TWOSDEY!!!! THose Think Pink dwinks sound yummy!!!

Cheerio!

Katwinka

Good morning goils!

NM, so nice to see you in the morning, I would like two tink pink drink on dis twosdey. woo hoo. and you turning into a jock-o-lanturn, now that is funny. 

The day has arrived and I need to pinch myself~ I am done work for at least a month! I am on vacation until next tuesday then my disabilty starts the next day when I go into surgery to get shitty titty all bixed up. I ain't gonna lie, I have lost count of these darn breast surgeries, it is somewhere between surgery number 12 and 14. To those of you curious, I've had so many issues with recon. It is like de hokey pokey dance....take de left tit in take de left tit out, we do de hokey pokey and we turn ourselve about....den we take de right foob in den de right foob out...den we put expanders in, expanders out....you get it. So I am going on I believe the 3rd attempt to lift de left foob up and not take it out.  And our sweet Lara is having her te's put back in next month, right? oh I so remember that. so de doctor is going to rebuilt a sling type ting inside to keep de right foob from shifting down and over. 

Well I have to go and put together my stink bug catcher before the damn bugs wake up and start stalking me. I tried to do it last night but was too skeeved out. For those of you who do not know about these things, they came into the US from Asia in the last ten years and were first reported in PA. They have become a big problem for those of us on the midatlantic coast. They are disgusting and when they feel threatened, they attack with the most foul smell. I would rather smell farts or vomit anyday, they are totally foul. And they know I hate them and torture me. They really do, the dive from the trees and try to come inside the house, whether it be in my hair, on my clothes etc. I get really jumpy when I see or hear them. The adults can fly and they are on a mission to kill me but they will not win. 

hope to come back and say mission complete. oh, I have to catch a few and place them in the trap, the stench will lure the others. I am hoping by the end of the day to catch a few hundred of them who are trying to hybernate in my cave/move in my house. Thankfully, have only had a handful in the house but others around her are infested with them. I tell you, if you have not seen them, you are lucky.

 

  I am warning you all, if you have not seen them yet, you will. They are now in 38 states and the government has declared war on these nasty things. They feed off of trees and have ruined many of our states apple orchards. Congress has recently passed a farm aid bill t fund a war on stink bugs. I kid you not. I am not a pansy when it comes to bugs but these things are beyond nasty. I still recall the first time seeing them, I was bringing coushins from my shed to guests for an outdoor fire in october, about 6 years ago or so. I unfolded the cushions and my good friend Ann, who lives in PA said "don't sit down, there are stink bugs all over". I was like what? Wtf? say what? Well needless to say, the issue has gotten out of control in this area. I am doing my part to help the war on stink bugs.  I will not post photos of the things up close as they are too disgusting. Photos of them make me shake my hair and rub my hands over my clothing to make sure I am not carrying them. I SHALL WIN THIS WAR. It is not cancer but it sure is close.....stay tuned. 

ok, I now need two more drinks then will do it. I have the 20 parts for the trap laid across my table and I will have this thing put together and hanging in a tree near my cave. THIS IS WAR you phucking nasty creatures, and I am doing my part to save the rest of you here in the states from seeing these things EVER. ~~sigh~~~~ 

Ewwwwwww Dorkie, I feel badly for ya....have only seen 1 here in a couple yrs or so. I hate them too, but have never seen more than 1 at a time. I think I will put a BIG barrier over the states that do not have the infestation yet....wat will work??? BUt shoot, Hawaii has been a state since 1959, and I do remember seeing them as a kid, and just found this:

This pest, is also known in some countries as the green vegetable bug. It
occurs throughout the Americas, in various Pacific Islands, Japan, Australia,
New Zealand, and Africa. First seen in Hawaii in 1961 on Oahu, it has spread to
all major islands.

So whoever said that they were first discovered in PA, and just 10 yrs ago or so, is WRONGO BONGO.....that source is kaput....don't trust them again, Dorkie.....LOL...

So it has really been in the US since 1961, but not the infestation that it has now. I cannot believe they have traps for it (but I do believe it, as I also saw the video you had on it)....so awful that it is such an infestation. Sorta like the terrorists planted them here!!!! Hope you get that put together and can catch some and "lure" the others to their doom.

That is so funny how you did the "hokey pokey" to your surgeries...THEY aren't funny, but you always have a knack at making problems sound funny. I applaud you for that!! *clap, clap*....NO, not giving you the "clap", but jest clapping for ya!!!

Ooooooohhhhhhh our Terrific Tenders have made up TONS of those pink dwinks....and wese kin cewebwate that Dorkie does not have to go into work for a month!!! Yipppppeeeeeee!!!!! *hic*, *burp*, ohhhh dat is gud!

Booze cakes, yay!

Stink bugs and reconstruction problems, blech.

OK I don't know what passeo ??? is either I'm so behind these name--Patron??? is another I don't even know If I'm saying the right words. But I don't know what tese names are. I enjoy morning drinks cuz they never taste like booze, they're kind of fluffy.

Dork I'm thinking and rethinking---it's tomorrow you have u'r surgery? I thought it was next week---Oh I'll be sending vibes of happiness and some good drink ideas in u'r head. I don't care how many surgeries u have it's still surgery. Let us know everything as soon as u can.

OMG I didn't even say Good Morning to everyone--I'm sorry. Good Morning Everyone of u beautiful ladies.

I do my nails today----black---it's so fitting for me and my grandson will love it. Oh did I tell u my dgtr doesn't want to do my hair burgandy blah to her---she thinks I should be more reserved, Now this was my dgtr that never embarrassed me she was super good--so I can't even thro that up to her. So she'll  do different shades of dark brown, or black but not burgandy-Ugh how boring she is. Well I'll end up getting my way, I'll use the old Italian way--Guilt--I do that pretty well. LOL

OK I'll get to my routine now---Wait I don't have a routine anymore--Oh well I'll do something.:)
