BOO!

Did I scare you?

:D


I am having a slow and lazy-ish morning so far. No work until noon and no where I have to run to ATM. I think I need this quiet time especially after how icky I felt yesterday. I ended up not going to the Author Reading which really bummed me out because i finished her book in the afternoon. But I could barely sit/lie on the couch and it was way too hot for a heat pack. My friend said that if men only had to deal with that stuff once-- the world would be a different place.
Truth!

Well, at any rate, I am glad today i am feeling better because as I said back to her that if I didn't feel better I would go all "Walker-Like" (reference to The Walking Dead) and rip my own insides out. :faint2:

Hope all of you are great today. The heat wave here broke and I hope it did the same for the rest of you!

Temptation on Thursday
Have a ever mentioned that I really need a vacation?? To an island?? With drinks with little umbrellas??

:hippie:


 
Chris. bummer. i hate to hear that you're feeling like this. if this is period-related, have you had your check-up to see why you feel this badly? i have memories of what i felt like before my sort-of hysterectomy, and i would never want to deal with anything like that again. i'm glad to be RID of the Female Equipment. it was never anything but trouble for me.

today's the day i'm doing the "SURPRISE!!" double tree take-down. (well. not ME, per se. the Tree Guys.)i guess i'll find out how it all goes over when hubby comes home this evening. i predict he will be cranky about it, even though i paid for it.

where is everybody? not many girlzies checking in this week. hopefully everyone is absent because of fun and not because of The Bizzies. i'm going to meet a friend for lunch in town today. (Alladin's restaurant. No shellfish, none of the time. i can actually eat a pretty decent meal of kibbe and salad there and feel like i've actually eaten a MEAL.)

it's Thursday already. wow. where did the week go? hope the rest of your week is lovely and relaxing.

I am back, for personals. All of you have been so quiet. I hope my brain-dead, lazy, anti-socialishness is not rubbing off on all of you.

So are you ready?? Let's get this party started! :rockon:

For the record.... nope, no wine for b-fast for me. It would have been nice to have a mimosa maybe? But only coffee, straight coffee. Just wishful thinking on my part. I guess it ties into my dreams of being on vacation with drinks with little umbrellas. LOL

Trudy- oh your day on the river sounds divine!!! How is the sunburn today? The river rocks reminds me of summers in Maine when I was a girl. I was not used to the cold water and rocky bottoms.
Did you find any nice ones for future headstones?
What did you and DD do yesterday? I bet you can't stop hugging her. If I don't see my kids for a while, I have to hug them every time I see them. Thankfully they are both huggers as well and don't mind (not too much at least).

Phyllis- that is a bummer! I tired to get signed up for this one before- they had free books for the first 40 people but I was #45. Oh well. I didn't think we had that many "readers" in town at all. LOL If you saw the size of my library, you would understand what i mean., Its tiny. I mean seriously tiny and our town votes down the proposal to build a new one even though they have the $$ for it in a trust. God forbid we do something to improve this place or give the kids somewhere other than the A&P parking lot to hang out, yannow? *eye roll*
Anyway!

Phyllis-- woot on the good day yesterday- 2 big accomplishments off of your list!
I know what you mean about the big dirty PA rivers. I wnt to college at Lock Haven (30 miles east of State College) and it is on a tributary of the Susquehanna. Part of the pledging/hazing that used to go on with fraternities was to go swimming (voluntarily and involuntarily) in the river at night, ugh!!!
that is awesome bout the firewood- hope that hour hubby was happy about it.

hugs to all! Enjoy the day!
 
P- I woke up this morning and thought to myself it has been *years* since I have been to the gyno. I really don't want to have to make that appt. But I need to. And a mammo.
grrrrrrr


*stomps foot*

But I don't wanna!!!
 
Good morning ladies! Sorry for the absence. Too much going on! But this is my haven...

Chris, how sad that you missed the reading. Was the book good? If so, maybe I should get it. Of course, at the moment, I have so many free Kindle books to get through that I don't know when I'll be ready for another book. :-)

Sorry that you are not feeling so good. Call and make the appointment today!! Those are important...whether we like them or not;-)

Phylis, isn't it amazing that a little thing like receiving the service that we have paid for, gets us excited? But I know what you mean...does no one want to do their job well any longer? Ugh... Hope the trees are a good surprise for your husband.

And Trudy, the day spent at the river sounds amazing. I am so envious of your brother and sister-in-law with a home located there. I think that would soothe me!

Have to hustle out the door. Have an early morning meeting at work. And tonight I need to have a bunch of paperwork done so that I can get it to the guy who is working on the loan for the new house...unless, the inspection goes bad...oh, my head is spinning...do we have a smiley with a spinning head? Oh, and yesterday it hit 103 (I actually saw a 104 on my car thermometer at one point.) and predicting another 100 degrees today! Do we have a smiley that is melting?

Love you all! (hugs)
 
Morning ladies... it has been very quiet in here lately, but I would imagine that most are enjoying the summer and some are even lucky enough to be on some kind of a holiday! Forgot my camera the other day when I went to the river but here is a shot of my DD and friends on tubes from two years ago, it was a beautiful summer and the river is so crystal clean, we really are so fortunate to have it nearby!

Chris - sorry that you are feeling so crappy!! I was the same as you and did not see my gyno for many years, but now I go every year and things are good, it only takes a few minutes of your day and then you are done, best to get it over with and find out what is going on! I don't do mammo's my sister works at the lab and she thinks that if you don't have a history in your family for breast cancer that they are not neccesary, I do the self exam thing and my doctor says that is fine too, she would like me have one, but I am a little freaked out that perhaps sometimes that is what brings on the breast cancer, your girls should not be squeezed and x-rayed like that. But that's just me, I'll shut up now :tape: Hope your day is better today and you do what makes you happy!

Phylis - Good luck with the double take down today! Glad that your afternoon went better yesterday and that your hubby is not grumpy about your surprise for him. What is it with men?? Is it a guy thing to always have to be unappreciative of what we do for them?? I think your surprise is wonderful!! Plus you house will still be in tack LOL! Hope your day continues to be great and enjoy your yummy lunch!!

LindaS - It is so stressful to go through the buying process of a house isn't it? I have done it so many times that its kind of like water off a ducks back now. But those first few moves were not fun and we lost a lot of sleep! Hope your inspection goes smoothly and you can get into this new place soon!! oddly enough we have not smileys that are spinning or melting??? LOL Hope you have a wonderful day today!

Well off to the shower and then work, then home and DD and I are going to do some running around town for a few things. Yesterday was quiet for us as she had some school work to do on the computer for her accounting course and then she spent some time texting her boyfriend back in Ontario. It was nice to just veg a bit!
 
morning o fam. at car dealer for oil change. i have been working 10 hour days for regular pay. still trying it on for size. hope to convince boss by end of august. that is why i bave been mia, that and heat.
 
Linda, good luck with the house stuff. those inspections must be hair-raising. i can only imagine with horror the many ways that my house would fail....

Laurie, a 10 hour day sounds exhausting. but good luck with convincing the boss to let you have the schedule you want to try!

Trudy. get at least a baseline mammo. please! we had NO cancer of ANY kind in our family until my sister got breast cancer. and her symptom was only some slight skin puckering. she ended up with a mastectomy and radiation and chemo. please. i know it's a crap shoot and scary and a bit ouchie, but take good care.

Chris. bad girl. here's me bossing you all around :rant: and telling you all to get your screenings. please. i am loaded with MORE scary stories to convince you to get to the gyn, but i'm not going to subject you to any more of them.
 
so excited- apparently my super sexy car also comes with a maintenance program that covered the cost of the oil change- who knew? Made me happy. Now to unload the groceries!
 
Hi ladies! I am having such lazy wonderful days (except for the running and bike riding i am trying to fit in). Hard to scrap lately, especially with kids home all the time. Three weeks until we get to the wonderful BC Coast, I can't wait!!
