how about drinking?

LOL at the funny pics, girlz!

Bernie, Glad you made such a good meatloaf! Tuna in expensive there? Its so f'n cheap here...my DH likes the albacore (I just like the dark), and it is usually on sale, so he buys so much we end up throwing some out when it gets out of date. (THats cuz he puts the new stuff in FRONT of the old stuff...my late DH was a grocery mgr and I really learned the "FIFO"...first in, first out method).

OH and I am with you Lori on the velveeta, don't like it, don't like ANY mac 'n cheese or much pasta for that matter. I like my pasta thin, angel hair, and I prefer my cheese on its own...don't even like it on burgers anymore. But I DO love thin angel hair, with a simple topping of sauteed tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil.

Yikes, I did NOT know what MRSA was. Oh Sue, please let us know how Jengirl is, ok? She has just had TOO MUCH happening to her, and needs some good healthy times. Just breaks my heart.

Oh, that Baby Guinness with Tia Maria and Baileys sounds really yummy!
And yummy DOTD's ....love the names of them, Lori.

Cami, that IS interesting about older people holding hands. My dad and mom always do that, and we thought it was so romantic, but yeah, it prolly also is so they are more steady. Funny!

OK, feeling better, but now have a busy afternoon, and taking my mom to get some new meds. Maybe it was the flu shot that made me so sick, hope so, cause I don't have time to be down with a cold.

Hugssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

Kathy

Oh Alli I'm so sorry to hear your sad news...........condolences to you and all his family.



You goils sure have been biddy! I been biddy cleaning an cookin an twying to get meeselfs organhized for my DD engagement partay on Sunday as well as get weady for my fwend fwom New Zealand who awwives on Monday ..........did I say biddy? Well hell I'm flat out like a lizard dwinking!!!



Got to go!!!! Lubs y'all!!!!

Thanks Kathy. Just made myself a cup of tea and I thought I'd checkout the HTL while I drink it.......would much prefer booze but can't be boozing while I'm cooking or we could end up with chocolate stroganoff and pickled mud cake!!!



DD has set the date for 28th September next year so less than a year to get it all organized!! Thank goodness she has decided that she wants a country wedding and not a city one........much easier on the purse and less hassle to organise.



Mmmm cup of tea went down well and now it's back to work. Thanks for the Roo hugs.......so cute!!

Mornin' Bernie and anyone else up here.

Chrissy I love all that good news. It's so happy and so much fun to look forward to.

And Goldie, u'r right I think, I wasn't looking at it that way--I just know my grandson can't bring peanutbutter sandwich to school. Kind of scary. No one can.Well I do know that growing up years ago everyone smoked and drank (wine) all the time and no one was allergic to anything and they all lived to be pretty old, late 80's mid 90's. And hardly anyone was in the hospital ever so I the whole thing is a mystery

I hope everyone is feeling good I fell asleep early so now I'm screwed.  My cousin was here most of the day---he is so funny. We were laughing most of the day, that akways feels good and my dgtr gave him a hair cut. Rainy all day so I started my movies but never watched any--well it supposed to rain today too so I have time. LOL

good morning bernie,chrissy,cammi

HI goils

big call with the boss this morning u would think they would b a bit sensetive to my condition but they are not

Traveling is very hard for me like this I get pain and its hard to sleep in hotels all the time and the drive I have only been bk to work for about 2 months

Im going to pull the BC card if I have to

I hate working and my boss

ranting sorry

ck in later

Oh Lara, HOPE today goes well....that really sux....YES, try the cancer card and see if that helps. So sorry about this, just one injustice on top of another...hold your head high and stand up for your rights, and YOUR health. We are all here for you! (((((LARA)))))

Cami, HOPE you are sleeping now...I have been us since 4 ayem...on some new meds and been SO tired during the day and up at night...not fun. If it persists, I will try taking it at night. Glad you had a good day with your cousin! That was a funny pic with the dog on the doghouse....hehehe.

GLad you have almost a yr to plan the wedding, Chrissy. SO exciting!!

Hope everyone will have a good day today: Lara, Cami, Chrissy, Julie, Raku, Dorkie, Cyn, Sue, Lori, Jean, Alli, NM, Bernie, and all the MIA's...(that includes anyone I missed).....

Its FRIED-DEY!!!! Yay!!!! Sorry I conked out b4 the lampshade partay and missed it...did anyone show up? Looks iike you all cleaned up the house afterwards, as I can't even tell...

ChEARS!

Kath

Oh no partying for me last nite Kath and when I checked during the night it was quiet so I think everyone was tired or partying elsewhere--dum. dum (singing that too.)

Lara that just plain sucks about u'r boss. I can not stand when anyone thinks well u had chemo etc--u'r done, u'r fine--- if only. To most of us this is an emotionally disturbing disease that is always hanging over our heads and pysically leaves us drained and with SE of some sort. And once u go back to work (depending on u'r boss) u've declared u'r self fine. And u really have to to work but it's a struggle somedays and depending on wht u do it could be really difficult. (((hugs)))

GREAT NEWS LARA!!!! Love hearing good news like that!

Hey Girls...probably my last post from Texas...Im on my way home tonight...Back

Hi DahhhlinKs!  Yep…dat greeting usually means I’m in da sauce…dat means booze…K?  And I am sooo far behind too…so forgive my responses that are old now…heehee…like me!

Alli - I’m thinking of you…all day I been thinking of you….I hope today was not too stressful and that you hab time to visit da lounge.  Mese gots a big big big dwink fer ya and saving the hammock wif 2 Tenders to handle your every need.  BIG HUGZ!!

Dork - Have been thinking of you too…hope and prayed all day!!  Hope you can check in later.

My Jengirl…I misspelled it…MRSA is correct…mese tinks.  They did not admit her…took culture of this goiter thing on her leg, did blood work…got mad dat previous ER gave her Batrim (not supposed to give to kidney pts EVER) but let her go home with oral anti-biotics.  Called her last night…sed she has to go in today to repeat bloodwork as her WBC was elevated and her Creatinine also.  She has not had a good run of things, being so immune-suppresent…she jes seems to get sick too much.  She said it’s why she is ‘such a cranky bitch’…LOL.  Hope to hear good news, that its not mrsa and her wbc and creatinine are down, before bedtime.  Otherwise I will call her.

Thanks for all the prayers girls.  You are all soooo darn speshall…jes can’t tail ya how much ya mean to me…MUAH!!

Bernie - glad da meatloaf turned out…lol on WaWa talking meat loafing, loafing, etc.  O mese!  And yes….jes add the can (5oz) well not the can, jes whats inside the can.  You can use any kinda tuna not jes albacore and it can be packed in oil, jes not my fav.  Just drain it well whatever you use.

Cami - u not boring…u funniest hail…swear.  Holding on for balance…LOL…its true tho…most times that’s why I’m arm n arm wif my DH,  jes to keep me from falling.  Yeah…divorced women and college goils do da waitressing and bartending.  I did it too, off n on for bout 8 years.  Talk about embarrassing…I was leaving the 21 pit at a BIG place in LV with loaded tray in 1 hand, empty glasses in the other, squeezing thru a 21 table n da Big Wheel, well one a dem spokes on da wheel reached out n grabbed me uniform and jes plopped mese tit out fer the whole casino to see.  Everyone clapped!  Tanks fer the warm thots on my DD.  MRSA is very common for immune-suppresent peeps who go to the hosp.  We all could get it, but worse for others.  And about the pbj’s…yeah…I went to catholic school too…that’s all we ate, even at home…hmmm!

Bernie - good point about the fillers used nowadays.  I took penicillin(sp) all my young life, well not a lot, but when needed…then into my 20’s had allergic reaction…n yeah, no warning…scary shit.  Allergies can come and go in a persons life.  I always, always, carry benedryl tabs with me too.  OOOO tooo ferciting….next Thursday…to Belgium…ooo mese wud b jealous…but I’ll be in NJ wif Dork and then in KY wif Alli….can’t stop grinning…bet you will have a blast jes like mese!!

Lori - I don’t have to keep loggin in but I can’t use another computer to post, even when I DO log out on this one.  (ya kno like at my dd’s, never have gotten it to work).  Tank ewe fer da prays and congrats for DD and for posting the info on MRSA.  She thinks it is bug bite, but it is 2^nd one she’s had in last few months.  Still waiting for the culture.  And of course, if it gets into her bloodstream…well…not going there.  WOW…no like da Velvetta…ooohhhh….toooo bad…more for me…I don’t indulge often, but when I do…oink oink!

We’re having fun with the DOTD’S tho.  This one we did not have to improvise and it was delish.  I had 3..4...oh don’t member…but the beer on top…really made the diff.

 Tropical Heart..yum!

My…dat DOTD Dizzy Dame sounds right up my alley too as well as the ROO one.  We have plenty to choose from at work now and besides…it’s only turning out to be about 4 days a week since Karaoke is 3 a week.  But it’s been good.

Orla - am hoping the travel chit ends by Dec too…one day home not good at all…but u still manage to cwack me da hail up wif ur chit…er I mean flowery chit…LOL!  Seriously tho…pull the card…get your boss to listen…will be praying that you get it worked out!  Oopps…gosh I am behind…well then  CONGRATS for being praised and singled out and getting things squared away…YaHoo!!

Wawa - You don’t like pasta…ooo give me Olive Garden…I make pasta at home all the time too….prolly why Iz sooo fat.  hee hee.  I don’t really have it all that often, but I do like it.  N cheddar cheese, yum…I’m good with it melted on a tortilla for lunch sometimes. 

Hi ChrissyB - you sound biddy…jes kiddin.  We used to use dat woid to describe an old hag woman.  Old Biddy!  LOL…but mese unner stands wha u means.  How exciting for your DD and then having fwend from NZ…glad u finding time to dwink!!

Juliet - I take da Caltrate…didn’t kno u could get prescribed for it.  ConGrats on your gyno appt too.  Dat wonderful.  HMMM  probiotics while on antibiotics?  Will have to look into that. 

Cyn - you r prolly on your airplane leaving TX now…all I can say ((((Cyn))))

Lubs lubs lubs lubs lubs ya'll!!
