This is going to be a super quick one. The kids and I need to get packed and out the door. Off to my mom's and lotsa food and wine and the fireplace and Apples to Apples.

Get ready for some relaxing times for Faery.

I hope to be back to post personals if I can./
if not, have a great and fun weekend and I'll have a glass of wine for all of you. 1 glass= 1 O-fam member. Sounds like a plan!!!

Just checked - Oscraps have 23583 members - have fun Chris!

(There gotta be something Freudian here ... whenever I'm typing Chris's name I automatically add a t at the end. Chris is divine :D)

I slept til noon today! Total shock. Guess I finally was able to sleep, have slept too little all week. And I guess my body needed the rest - feel much better today.

Have a great weekend everyone!
 
morning all - getting ready to head to dance- going to try to dance in my new jeans- we shall see- I usually wear a skirt or split skirt, but wanted to see how these worked. Then- well- many options, we shall see which one works out!
 
Good Morning everyone!! Windy :rain: here today. I have a baby shower to attend this afternoon. I will be with my sisters too so that will be nice! I don't see them enough, everyone is so busy, its just hard to get together. Now that both parents are no longer with us it seems the family has drifted apart :sad: I really miss my one brother, but he is in Australia until May so kinda hard to get together with him!! Other than this shower, not much happening around here, the usual grocery shopping and cleaning up a bit.

Chris - I am so happy for you that you get to have a nice relaxing weekend! Enjoy the wine, but please don't have a drink for ALL of us or we may never see you again!! LOL.

Eva - Wow you must have really needed the extra sleep girl!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Laurie - Let us know how the jeans work out!! If they are comfortable they should feel ok for dance, do you wear heels to dance in or do you just wear heels for the shows that you do??

Hope everyone enjoys the weekend !! :wave:
 
Eva, NOON?? how i WISH i could do that just ONE day! you must feel pretty good today.

Chris, have the best time ever. (Chris IS divine!)

Laurie, you absolutely need to do a page about these fabulous jeans!

Jacqueline.
This led me to the startling discovery that I'm not perfect!
you made me laugh out loud. i know what those Dr.'s visits are like. try not to think too much about it.

i've been cleaning like a madwoman for some reason. still in my nightshirt. going out to dinner at a Middle Eastern place where there are no little shellfishies on the menu, so i should be good. no cooking!! yeah!!

hope everything is as you would wish it to be. or as close as possible!

hi, Trudy. so nice that you like your sisters. mine are mostly Martians. that drifting apart does happen with families, when the parents are gone. unless ONE of the siblings takes over the place of the parent and plans family stuff, everyone just drifts. i used to be that one person for decades with my husband's family. this year i just got tired. time for someone else to take over. or not.
 
Of course I had forgotten one thing for dinner today, so I had to walk to the store to get it. And of course I ended up with 2 bags of ... well, mainly candy LOL

Now - time to prepare dinner - tacos!
 
Hi back Phylis - I know what you mean about your sisters being Martians LOL , I have three sisters and my oldest one is a total beeatch!! The second oldest one is kinda crazy, but my sister who is only one year older than me is so much fun and I love her to death!! I also have three brothers, but that's a whole other story!! :twitch:

Eva - Careful you will get a big sugar headache LOL
 
Oh, I'm totally on the opposite side of this - I get a headache if I don't get sugar. Totally addicted and should go to sugar rehab. :)
 
Good morning ladies! Spent all day traveling yesterday but managed to stay awake until 9 pm Hawaii time and that helped us to sleep until 5:30 this morning. Windy and a few spinkles this morning but didn't keep us from walking on the beach. From our balcony we saw whales off the beach...as well as a beautiful rainbow. Liking it so far.
 
Linda, I saw the pictures on FB. I'm slightly jealous! ;) Enjoy your stay :D

I'm having terrible migraines the last few days. Yesterday the whole day! I went to bed at 7pm to sleep for 2 hours, got up at 9pm and it was gone, watched a movie with DH, and GAH! 1hr later it was back. Today I'm all fuzzy and have this weak feeling in my head, with a nagging headache, what *I'm sure* will turn out to be a migrane tomorrow... MEN! I hate those migrane headaches!

Sorry for no personal in my post. :oops:

Oh no! I hate migraines. Don't hardly ever get them anymore...and if I do, I get an aura first so that I know to take something. But back in my late 20's and early 30's, they were awful!!! Hope it goes away quickly!

Oh Eva...sounds like you really did need the sleep! Good for you!
 
Evening all - we did dance, then came home and emptied the cement room (otherwise known as the exercise room) of everything but exercise equipment, shop vac cleaned it, and then brought in what will remain in there - the rest- either to the garage,trash or sadly about 10 boxes that need sorting to my not yet organized craft room. But now the exercise room looks marvy- a few free weights, treadmill, nordic trac ski machine & bowflex- really- who knew, a black mat that used to go under the treadmill, that I will layout out and then cover with a yoga mat for doing exercise video's- once I find and hook up the cheap dvd player, or my laptop to the tv. After church we bought the wall mount for the tv. MMG will install it tomorrow- I will be heading into work early to get more paperwork caught up. Then home to work on the mess in my scrap room. Slowly things are falling in place. I may get my dance room after all!
 
Laurie, if you lived in Elkins, WV, you could buy my brother-in-law's house. (but then you'd have to actually LIVE in Elkins, WV....) they have an ACTUAL dance studio in their house. the daughter used to teach dance.

yvonna, sorry about the migraines. they must be terrible. apparently i get them, too, but not the regular kind. mine start with a bright spot in my vision, then i start seeing wiggly things, like amoeba for about 10 minutes. i thought i was getting a detatched retina, but the opthalmologist said it's a type of migraine. i'm sure i'd rather have my kind than yours. hope you feel better fast.

having some inlaws over for dinner today. something easy. they're always good company, and i'm in dire need of that.

Happy Sunday.

Chris, i thought i read that yesterday was National Wine Drinking Day or some such thing. if you had a glass for each of us, have you crawled out from under the table yet??? :partywine:bounce:
 
Phylis, sound 'good' your migraines LOL Mine start with an annoying headache just above my left eye. really a specific spot. And than I allready know that I need to go to sleep, or I have to throw up BLEH! The asperines don't work. And the special migraine tablets that I once got from the drs don't work as well :der:
Ah well, I have them not much, but sometimes on regular base. It's when I'm to busy.

It's carnaval in the NL. I really don't like carnaval LOL Our oldest daughter LOVES carnaval, for how much you can love it at 5years old LOL She's going to the childrens party with her little friend and her parents. It starts at 4pm, and at 6pm the mother is bringing the girls to our place, and she will stay here for the night.
I'm still feeling all fuzzy, so I'm sure I'll sleep good! haha
 
Quick Hi to everyone... off to do grocery shopping and then :washing: cleaning bathrooms and vacuming, dusting Ughhhh!! I hope to get some soup on the go today also, some Pasta E Fagioli I think that's how its spelled?? I thank you girls again for all the great soup recipes you gave me when I was having my jaw problems, I love all them!!! Hope everyone has a great Sunday, I would rather be here scrapping all day, but that might have to wait until Tues. :wave:
 
Late to a weekend hello but all is good and just enjoying my son's visit. We finally cooked together and he is a patient teacher. Of course I am a willing student! Today we are going to make gnocchi but mostly to let me feel the dough as we go and then we'll just freeze them for later. We already have lots of good leftovers for the next day or so.

I too get the visual migraines which only affect my vision. I never had them til after the cataract surgery and was worried BIG time when the first one happened. Now as soon as I see the fuzzy center and the circle of dots starting, I stop and sit or lay down and do some energy work by holding my fingers in turn. Once they get about half way round that visual circle, it's too late and I just have to wait it out the same way. Mostly it's under 10 minutes and easy to deal with being retired, rather than working!

btw, I have read in several places that an orgasm is a cure for a migraine but :biggrin1:...it can also trigger one for those who are susceptible! Hormones def seem to be involved.

On the other family front my daughter is still with a woman who lives closer to Baltimore and actually having to go up and down stairs since that's where her bed is. She told my son she's trying to cook but at the same time she is still raging at me to him and to her friends. She is now blocked on FB and threatened not to talk to me anymore! I felt like answering ...is that a threat or a promise!?!?! I hear she is also going back to the Drs. Wednesday to see if the tumor is shrinking from the chemo. She mentioned a possible operation to my son but none of us can believe that they would consider that but...you never know. Surgery could also be for the tumor on her neck which is also malignant. So far no more discussion re the tumor on her spine.

My next concern is my older son who is off to Afghanistan next week. Sigh...once again.

Wishing you all a good weekend, and a Happy Presidents' Day if you're in the US!
 
So in my apparently never ending teeth issues, I bit into my apple this afternoon and the tooth that had cavity filled on thursday broke off at the gum. Grrrrrrr, left a message at dentist, fortunately it has a root canal or I would really be hurting. More mouth $$ to be spent. Too bad this one is the second tooth in very visible.
