Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts too (Part 2)

[MAGICFOR2]

Hello Everyone! Hope you're having a great weekend. We have had 65 and Sunny for a couple of days, ice at night so the trees that aren't pine trees are turning - beautiful here, too. That should mostly hang in until halloween.

Cammie, did you get the ex to take care of the van? I can't believe that girl didn't like Disney. I'll bet she did, but wants to act like a big shot at school.

No, the kids don't have a sitter yet. I am really tired and grouchy this week as they had school conferences and extra meetingsl, so it was 4 very long days. I even had to take Myles to preschool, which they usually do. There's no school today, so I thought it was Saturday! I will need to ask them again to get someone for Thurs and Fridays.

Jillian, broken bed hmmmm? (I'm not the southern lady that Kara is ) Once again, love the pics of Badookie!

Kara, congrats on getting a raise! Have fun painting - I can't wait to see your pictures!

Laura, when I was in Jr. High we lived in Hastings. I remember older teens driving to WI because they could drink "near beer" there - some kind of less alcohol beer that was legal for under age, and they could drink legal at 18. No wonder my parents moved to Oregon when I started high school!

Debbie, I miss you, too! Not sure what to do with the Facebook, but i left a couple of comments. My cousin was on and asked me for pics and a couple of questions - I told her I didn't even know how I got there!

Hi Erin, Tessa, Pam, Tina (what are you sewing now?), Newbies (sorry I need to learn your names - come on back!)


Jim is doing better. He is walking with a slight limp, but still doesn't drive because his knee is stiff enough that he wouldn't have reaction time if something happened. I'm grumpy cuz I'm tired and he's not able to help like usual - he's grumpy cuz he feels left out and ignored. Guess I'll have to give him some special attention...

I'm trying to gear up for next week - I have four parties plus my babysitting and my church bus I am doing a fun thing for Fall. Harvest of Hope So for Oct - Dec, my profits will go toward the local Food Bank, and we are asking party guests to bring a food item to donate. People are really loving this idea and excited to help! I get my thank you pay from Arbonne, so its okay to give away my profits.

Wow! I was just going to check in quickly, but I have been really chatty. Have a great Friday everyone!

OK, since I was a "southern Belle" with Jillian's broken bed.... I'll just say, "Special attention????"

I've got all the windows and door frames trimmed, plus the two short walls I got the trim by the baseboards and the crown molding. Now I just have to trim around the crown and baseboards on the two long walls. That will be a piece of cake though. Painting inside the window casings and all the window and door trim is a pain!!! But I've got two coats on all that, plus around the light switches and outlets on those two walls. Why did I start this in the first place???

The question is Kara why didn't you call on your friend the painter and decorator

Cause by the time your flight gets in, I'll be done!!!!

Actually, painting doesn't bother me. It's the cleanup that I hate!!!!

Saw that interview - he is a cutie! (now he just needs to drop his trampy girlfriend!)

 

[Camster0307]

Mmmmm - have no idea why that pix didn't post!

 

[Camster0307]

Ok, I'm determined to get a picture on here for you, Debbie!

This is one from Entertainment Weekly:

Now I could comment on this, but I won't....
!!!

OK you all have DIRTY minds!!!!!

Actually Mike tripped over the cat banged into the bed and one of the post under broke so now we are just waiting for it collapse


He has been working so much we are lucky we ever see each other

 

[Camster0307]

Here are some fall foliage shots taken in front of my house. Actually these don't do the area justice. There's a long narrow road that leads to my street, lined with trees - it looks gorgeous! I keep meaning to take my camera out there one day and get some shots! And, by golly, I WILL someday!

Jillian..I like Badookie's new pic. Too cute!

 

[CRdisMom]

quick fly by--life is getting busy. off for a train ride to see the colors and get pumpkins tomorrow

 

[UsNew2Disney2008]

I'm gonna post all the pics on my TR, or PTR, or whatever you wanna call it!

So loved all those pics - but makes me really nervous that I said I'd try some of those rides with you guys!

Hi Ladies...
My Baby boy turned 3 today!!! I can't believe it!!!!!
it!!!

Happy late birthday to your little one!

Now you're all going to think I'm a mental case, but one of my BIG fears in going to any doctor is that they're going to find something really horrible - like cancer. !

I won't think you are nuts, I do the same thing all the time.

Hi everyone - hanging in there. Just breifly skimmed - enjoyed all the pics. I'm about to head off to bed. I have my stepbrother coming in with his new to be wife (uh hum - and he wants to go visit another girl this weekend). Needless to say, I told him I didn't think that was fair and he shouldn't probably get married to her if he feels that way, but ...

I've been cleaning and trying to get some paperwork done. Flex Ben is ready to file! So, that is always a project. Off to go to bed. Carlos is working all weekend so I have to clean with two munchkins running around - we all know how that goes.

Thanks for all the well wishes - one day at a time!

PS - Welcome to the new person!

Okay, miss Southern Belle -

You are not only funny, you are a quick painter! I make such a mess when I paint that it takes me all day to go behind myself!

Oh, he's 21 - then that makes it okay!

quick fly by--life is getting busy. off for a train ride to see the colors and get pumpkins tomorrow

That sounds really nice - enjoy!

Renee! just enjoy your munchkins and clean later!


Cammie, Thanks for sharing the fall pics! Makes me miss living where the trees change - although quite a few in my yard and neighborhood do - just can't really go for a drive and view the leaves here - they're mostly evergreens. They look really beautiful when it snows, though!

Did anyone watch Crusoe tonight? Premier of the series - nice eye candy and fun story - kind of like Pirates on land!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Oh crap! I just googled Philip Winchester (Crusoe) and he's only two years older than my son! He looks older. Really.

 

[Debbie6221]

You are funny Tammie!
Hang in there Renee..
Kara..never told you I LOVE the pix! I can't believe how much I have neglected mine.
Laura..have a fun Fall time.

Have grate weekend everyone! I am ONCE AGAIN going to try and stay away from the computer and get some stuff done. When it is chilly I just want to curl up in the blankets and watch TV or go to bed! I am so....jealous my P's are off to Naples tomorrow.
I had to change my son's age in my siggie. That's depressing. Finding friends from college on facebook is also depressing. I can NOT believe that I graduated 20 years ago and BTW had so much fun that my children will NEVER go away to school if I can help it!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Good Morning! Every day I think I'll get up and get busy, and then I get on the DIS with my coffee and my day is shot!

Debbie, my grandson is the same age as your son! Think how that feels! We had our kids pretty early - yah, that's it - I was 13!

I have been trying to plan our March trip with TGM, but he doesn't have dates for March up yet, and we are still waiting for the Braves spring training schedule - Now we want to try T-Rex (looks like fun) and we want to eat at FF on the DDP, because it's 2 TS credits now.

Hi Guys...Her are some pix...
I just can't get myself to get ANYTHING productive done. How dumb am I?! What a waste of a day!

Well...I at least downloaded some more pix. I also sent you guys my photobucket album. It's huge and I actually downloaded doubles too I think. I wish it wouldn't let you download doubles actually. Let me know if you can view them. In the mean time here are a few....
