Good morning ladies!!!!

I am so sorry I fell off the Daily Ooos wagon the last few days! I have been so busy and just never made myself get in here and post and catch up.

I will be back tomorrow to catch up on what is going on with everyone.

Today is going to be ANOTHER busy day for me! I have a HOG meeting this morning, then DH and I are volunteering for a shift from 11 to 2 at the Harley dealership for a charity event. Then, we are going to a HOG mixer at one of the members working ranches.

Talk about a long, HOT day! Gotta love that Texas weather!

Hope you all have a FABUlOUS weekend! I will catch up tomorrow!

HUGS!!!!

hi neet! (again, I have flaked out on another name!)
Hope that you have a great time this weekend! Don't forget your sunscreen!

And hello and good happy weekend to my O-Fam!
I have to apologize in advance. My typing is going to be worse than usual. Ever since I got my braces back on, and then the metal ones, I can't bite my nails. My nails are longer than they have been in years. But it makes it hard for me to type :)

yesterday I worked at my MIL's- I was weeding out one of her gardens and putting in some more plants- heaven!! (My muscles are yelling at me today, but it is a good ache, ya know?

Today I am going to have to work my a$$ off getting F-W stuff made. The shop I am now selling at on consignment is doing some really big fairs at the end of the month. I have to get more stuff over there to them. So exciting! The owner is also wanting some wings made- they take a long time, but I'd like to get at least two sets in the shop. Ahh!

Cornelia- hope that computer gets all of the kinks out soon!

ME-How was your date night? What books did you get?
I know, I never shop at Kohls unless there is a good sale. Such a bummer that I missed it by one day!


Sandra- I saw your post on FB about the kids and Piper- how sweeeeet! Must make your heart smile! So glad you have had some time to scrap! I am so far behind... I need some time to just relax w/ my computer!

Andrea- I think your mom is going to be so excited to see you and the kids, she isn't going to notice your carpet at all- andyway, you have the tired/pg/mom of other kids card you canalways play!
I am going to be making the cuc. body mist today and it should ship on Monday. I'll total everything up and send you an invoice. BTW- the cuc fragrance oil- smells *just* like cuc's! mmmmmmm mmmmm!!!!!

Hi Kat- how is your tooth today? And have so much fun at Nick's party-- If your weather is similar to mine- looks like you are gonna have a gorgeous day!

LindaS!!!!!!!!!! How dare you stay away from us so long????? I have missed you! Thank goodness I would see ya on FB! How are you and the kids?? I am guessing Haoyi is back home too? xoxoxo

Clara! Do you ever get to bed early? :lol: Caitlyn was out at the town fireworks with her friend last night, and scared the doody out of me when she got home. I was fast asleep and she leaned over to kiss me goodnight and was woke up, and didn't know it was her! So sad that my kids are always up later than me.

Dawn-- Yes, how is our O-Family Bunny doing?

Linda P- yeah, I worry but am proud at the same time. I was telling my MIL yesterday how good they are with him and can really handle whatever he goes through. (The seizures were a bit much, but that was a bit much for all of us- the one time my mom was over, and their job was to keep her downstairs and distracted LOLOL!!)
I feel bad b/c I guess I think that they should have to feel "responsible" for taking care of their dad- or of me when I have needed it- but better that they know how to take care of someone else, than be completely oblivious.

GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just read that they are going to see Green Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OOOOHHH!! I am sooooooo jealous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please give me detailed updates!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clara- ty for saying that it shows how my fam. cares about and for each other. That really means a lot. I have to remind myself that where we might lack in $$ or vacations or other material things.... we have each other. In the grand scheme of things that is truly worth so much more. I just wish we didn't have quite so little $$ to deal with! :p

good morning! I'm sitting here having some coffee... my MIL just left to go back home and the kids are already running around! Piper was really glad to be home... she ran into my arms and crawled on my lap and promptly started bawling and said she missed me sooo much! I'm glad to have them home...

Not much on the agenda today... just hanging out... Today is Gabe's game night so we'll just hang out at the house... need to start thinking about this week's dinner menu and prepare for lunches at work... other than that it'll be a lazy day around the house...

hope everyone has a great Saturday!

Dawn-- Double GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to answer this in bits:
1. OMG- too funny about Davy not eating! My pets get like that too. Whenever we go away to PA- my cat Scarlet gets pissy and hides from us when we get back.
2. OMG I am LMBO!!!!!!!! Davy is a girl ROTF!!!!!! How funnis that? That bunny has some great stories!!!!
3. Are you going to still call her Davy???

*gasps for breath*
Thank you so much for making me laugh so hard!!!!! Give Davy some more bunny kisses from me!

Clara- love it-- Princess Davy!

Ona- nope -- probably not going to have another Ona here. :) I am surprised that there is only one Chris.
I understand about having no choice but to take the trees down. We had to take two down when we put the addition on our house. I felt bad. Oh and there was this amazingly cool, old- very old- tree on the playground at the lake. They cut it down! I was so upset- there was a small bench underneath it, and it was so relaxing to sit there, the tree was practically talking to me (has anyone ever gotten that feeling with an old tree, that if you listened you could hear its stories??). And now it is gone. so sad!

Kat- Diva That is too cute too!

Linda W- LOL yup that's me, Clara knows... I am bossy and mean! LOL
So excited that your mom got the package. Just one thing... I didn't think of this when I shipped it, b/c is has been so cold here. If the salves got too warm in the shipping, they might have melted or softened a bit and then resettled. They will still be fine to use. But if there is any problem with them, please let me know and I'll make more and ship them with a cooler/cold pack.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning!!

I am headed out to do a major grocery run! I hate when I don't go often enough and run out of everything....and that's it for me...wow....that's sounds really really boring...oh well....

I did A LOT of scrapping yesterday!! and will probably do a lot more today...NO kids here for the weekend. I am officially doing the grandmother's right to refuse to babysit this weekend...although, I wasn't asked!

Good morning ladies. I definitely feel behind in the Daily O's! I didn't go back and read yesterday's posts so I'm trying to catch up through Chris' responses. LOL Thanks for the welcome back Chris and Kat!

Not too much on the agenda today. Heading to the Farmers' Market after the kids and Brian get up. We have Iowa sweet corn ready this weekend. Love sweet corn.

Need to make homemade ice cream and potato salad this afternoon. We are celebrating my nephew's 16th birthday tomorrow. The actual birthday is Tuesday but his high school baseball team starts tournament play that night so we're celebrating early.

And, I need to make sure my alarm clock still works. I've really enjoyed this vacation time. :)

Chris - as far as the Greenday concert goes. All I know is that they called me about 6:30 last night and had gotten checked into the hotel. The concert was to start at 8. I'm sure they may still be sleeping in this morning.

It's a happy Saturday morning at my house. Noelle has been and gone already. She stopped in on her way to work to pick up some things for hosting a bachelorette party. Have not heard from the concert goers, hopefully they are still sleeping in a bit.
Last night I ran into town and checked out the mess in my classroom. They finally installed new doors between my classroom and my greenhouse! Yay! My promethean board is installed - now I just need to learn how to make it do cool tricks! Now there's the matter of moving all the stuff around in my room to figure out where things should live since the set up has changed due to the promethean board. I'll have some kids come in closer to the start of school and we'll brainstorm it together.
After my treck to town it was time for You've got mail! Love, love, love that movie!
Well I'm off to spray grasshoppers:) Have a wonderful weekend all!

Neet - do you come to Sturgis for the rally?

Sandra - so glad your kiddos are home. It's so great when they miss you and show it!

Hello LindaW and Linda S. All three of us here today!

Dawn - can't wait to hear more about the bunny with the identity crisis :)

Good Morning,

I will start from last night.

Ok, on 4th of July Bethany (Bethany, Oklahoma City also where I live) postponed there fireworks because it was raining so we saw them last night. I had never ever seen a better finale it was great!

And now this morning

I wake up and walk into our playroom/schoolroom/office and my dad is on the computer and the first thing he said to me was "you just now woke up?" and I said yes.
and I went down stairs and had yogurt and later we're going to look at cars.
that's my day so far :)
Oh yeah, Daddy said doubtfully we would get to go to the movies tonight (There is still hope!)

Good morning. I'm going to make this quick because I have to get moving and I am procrastinating. I have to clean out the closet under our stairs today. We are having a garage sale the first weekend of August and so I have to get stuff to sell that is taking up space. I hate how much junk we have. Ugh!!

So, last night my friend called to say she was coming on our cruise with us. I've been bugging her and her husband about it for a few months...so they finally decided to go. I'd love to extend an invitation to go on a cruise to all of you. We are going to the Western Caribbean next February. There is a group going but me and Derek are the common denominator and most everyone doesn't necessarily know everybody else. So the only thing we will be doing together is eat dinner, if they decide to eat dinner in the dining room. It will be awesome.

Besides the closet cleaning we have a birthday party and a UFC party to go to. The last UFC party we went to Ethan broke his arm. So no wrestling for him this time. I hope all of you have a great time and I might find some time later to leave some personals.

Hey everybody!
I just spent like three hours totally focused in on a LO for Danielle Young's team blog template challenge because today was the last day for it, and I put it up in the gallery and I think I hate it. Does that ever happen to you? I mean, I totally blew off almost everything all day because I got so focused on it, and now it looks super weird to me. It's in her designer gallery, if you want to go look for it, but I'm not posting a link because I don't want to look at it again.
LOL
Dragged my butt out of bed this morning so we could get ready and go to the Wives of Warriors group at church this morning, because I knew I needed the fellowship, and I'm super glad I did, although now I'm all tired and bleary eyed. Gah!

Whatever, stop complaining! (that's me to myself, by the way)

So tomorrow we go to church and then come home and clean. Then Monday all day I wait for my sweet hubby to get back from Charleston, SC. HOpefully he gets home well before my mom and son arrive, so we can catch up and then he can play with the girls while I run around like a chicken sans head doing last minute cleaning!!

Clara- I'm so jealous! I've never been anywhere tropical and have wanted to since I was tiny. Have fun, that sounds like the blast of a lifetime. While you are cruising, I'll be having a baby. LOL!!

Dawn- LOL cheap something or other! I'm sure you look just ravishing now! And I am cracking up about the whole Davy saga. Is all that humping and thumping just agressive/dominant behavior? Do you have a Bunnicula? LOL

Chris- OOooo I can't wait for my smell-pretties! I'm wondering if the ginger scent will actually help my tummy stay put. I mean, drinking ginger tea helps, so wouldn't SMELLING it help? Also, the cucumber is a scent I so identify with summer.. ahhh! Thanks so much, you da best!

LindaW- I love grocery shopping! Maybe that's weird. I hate hate hate clothes shopping, but I love grocery shopping, and consequently I never run out of things, unless we have one of those too much month at the end of the money scenarios!

LindaS- The only thing I love more than grocery shopping is... FARMER'S MARKETS!Mmmm I could just have a vegetable frenzy! SWEET CORN! AHHHH! And home made ice cream? Your nephew is so lucky!

LindaP-I don't know what a promethian board is. Sounds fancy! LOL

Okay, you know you've left the laundry on the couch too long without folding it when your daughters start having a "fashion show" with it. I think the next load is dry by now. So I'd better go do that, and then I guess my family probably wants to EAT or something.
Catch you ladies later!

So today I had this great plan to clean out the closet under the stairs. And then...I opened the door and got a big wiff and knew something was not good. As I further investigated I realized that mice had gotten into the closet. Ugh!! My husband had been under the house a while ago and didn't get the crawl space closed all the way and they had infiltrated into the house. Ewwwww!! So instead of simply reorganizing I had to go through everything and it was sooooooo gross. It was all I could smell and taste for hours. Ugh!! It definately threw off my day.

Then I had planned on going to church tonight but got a call from a friend who is having teenager problems. So she wanted me to be at the house so that things didn't get escalated and messy. It worked out well. Things didn't get out of hand, so that was good. All parents of teenagers are saints.

Well, it is late and I need to be off to bed. I'll chat agian later I am sure.
