- Everyone is welcome! The only real rules here are no spamming shit and no posting personal addresses, phone numbers or other similar info. I don't need that kind of stress. That's it, although it could change if someone gets creative or something. If you don't like what is said here, you can: 1) Say so; 2) Hold it in and stew on it; 3. Address it privately to the person who said it; 4) Snark about it to your friends; 5) Leave. Don't bother me with it, I don't care and I won't get involved. I might, however, talk about you behind your back or post your email/message to me on here. *grins* Them's the rules...all of them. Have fun!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 306 of 306 Newer› Newest»I'm back, catching up and thanks for putting my with my little hissy fit up there. They came, they were bored, they left. Someone asked why they come here...the woman is abnormally attached to me. Uncomfortably so, at least on my end. Twice a year, she comes to see me and has for years, bringing her husband with her one of those times a year. Thankfully they stay at a local b&b when he comes. Just going to read along some but CK, I'm sorry you're lonely.
Ohhh I'm soo far behind reading, but wanted to stop in and say hello! I'm sure everyone is in bed - AP hope you are resting up for more company tomorrow - sorry it doesn't sound to be going well, hope tomorrow is better!
Will try to come on during the day tomorrow and say hello - just wanted to let you all know I"m still around!!!
Morning whomever is here. Still lonely....
But FT has truly rocked my world!!! My clever Canadian pin dealer has scored some good stuff.
The olympic collector pin I've been coveting but will not pay $24 for on e-bay!
If you need the goods, put she's quite the supplier.
Off to school for early meeting.
I see Corinne, I see someone from Australia, I see a few others. Have a good day, everyone!
No watching Oprah today, Corinne!
Morning ladies!
Off to work!
Hi CK & Kristin (and whoever else is on)!
AP- I'm sorry your HFH are so rude.
I really admire your patience.
Okay - I'm back!
Goona go start the coffee!
***Shutter Island***
It might not be Martin Scorcese's best movie - admittedly, it's hard to top 'The Departed', 'Raging Bull' or 'Taxi Driver'- but it was *very good, nonetheless.
He managed to capture the essence of Dennis Lehane's novel and that is something worth acknowledging.
Leonardo DiCaprio is brilliant, quite simply. He portrays Teddy Daniels wonderfully.
While I wouldn't call the movie scary per se, it does make you feel highly uncomfortable from the first scene up until the very last one.
It actually makes you feel like you are insane; like you are yourself one of those people on Shutter Island. I cannot say more without ruining it.
Overall, I really enjoyed the movie. So much, actually, that I'm going to see it again with my sister tomorrow!
Awesome Corinne!
I need to take a day off and go to a movie one of these days.
Kristin- If you do, go see 'Shutter Island'. Definitely!
How are you today?
Tired, irritated and cold but it is one day closer to the weekend.
LM seems to be doing so, so much better and he was in a good mood this morning.

I'm glad to hear LM is doing much better. That is great news!
I'm doing great =)
Ugh. Blogger is giving me attitude today!
Me too Corinne!
Good morning ladies. It snowed last night but at least it's sunny here today.
Hey Sandy!
Cold with ice (on windshields) this morning but it looks to be another beautiful day.
Morning all! I'm not going to have time right now to stay adn chat because I'm on a deadline with a couple of projects, but wanted to stop by and say Hi! AP, I skimmed through to see if you had an update on your HFH and am apalled already by their behavior. Hang in there, hon.
Hey SW! Don't work too hard!
I am feeling particularly unmotivated right now.
Hi SW! Hi Sandy!
Kristin- I'm sending you motivation vibes!
I think the lack of motivation comes from the fact that I cleaned my house yesterday. Cloroxed, dusted, swept, vacuumed, did laundry, kitty litter, cooked, emptied and loaded dishwasher, etc.
Oh well. At least my house is clean :)
Sandy- Do you sometimes comment on 'under1000braincells'? I see a Sandy and I wondered if it was you!
Kristin- A clean house is what matters! :)
No it's not me. I just read and laugh!
Sandy- That's what I do, too!
After all, laughter is the best medicine! =)
Any ideas on what to get a 3 year old for a birthday? My friend is having a party Saturday? I will probably end up with trucks, etc. Any ideas?
AP - How long are the HFH staying? I am glad they are staying at a B&B though, for your sake.
I cannot seem to wake up nor get warm this morning :(
Kristin - trucks are good. I always like a book that's age appropriate with a toy/stuffed animal that corresponds, too. I don't know, I stink at that kind of stuff.
I am going to work until noon, then attack my house, too.
Oh -- good morning all!
Hey RiM!
How are you feeling today?
I can't seem to wake up, my eyes hurt.
Yeah, I know LM loves trucks so I may go with that. Its safe :)
I am feeling much better today. I went to bed at 8:30 and didn't get up until about 8:00. Took some Nyquil and actually slept through most of the night. I feel much, much better.
Glad to hear! Ny -quil is awesome!
Why must my fellow co-worker take things off the printer every.damn.time when they don't belong to him. I am printing shit off and will get them when I am done! I sit within reach.
FRUSTRATING!
Okay, rant over!
Totally aside, I"m going to try making yogurt in my crockpot, maybe today. Supposed to be very easy and very good, and much cheaper. We shall see.
And no, don't worry, I'm not trying to become Emily of under $1000. :-D
Hi RiM, homemade yogurt, mmm sounds good, you will have to let us know.
I just peaked in at MWOP, getting a bit snarky in there, GM just showed up and got smacked down..good stuff lol.
Oh good stuff, need to go read MWoP!
Suz I just saw that myself and laughed a lot watching her get zinged. Serves her right!!
Did you save it? It looks like it's gone.
Funny that she comes here each day to sub to comments. Gathering material for Lyrics, GM?
Dammit the author deleted them...Tried to go back but it didnt work :(
I missed them too! Damn.
I knew I should have saved them. I don't know why the author deleted them, she was right on. Oh well, I think everyone that spent any time at OHIH and other places knows the truth about that person.
Who here is in Fresno, Calif. ?
Btw, it's totally out of curiosity. I'm nosy that way!
That would be me :P, how did you know??
Suz- Ooh. I didn't know.
Ok. Don't laugh but I am a huge fan of the tv series House. And everytime I hear of Fresno, it makes me think of the episode 'Lines in the Sand'. There's a teenage girl who has a crush on House and she gave him a calendar of Fresno with the date of her majority crossed.
At the end of the episode House figures out that she inhaled spores during an earthquake while in Fresno and that's why she's uninhibited.
I know, I know. I have issues :P
I love House. And speaking of House, mine is not going to get clean on its own. Wish I had a "self-cleaning" house but alas I don't. lol
Sandy -
I hear ya. I got pissed off yesterday and my house is *almost spotless.
I love House, and I love Hugh Laurie. Sigh.
Sandy- Someone should *really work on inventing a robot with housekeeping skils!
Bd- I love House. I'll leave you Hugh Laurie, though!
I think the writers of that show are geniuses.
I used to watch House but don't anymore.
Hey BD - how is Fester? How are A & M? LOL - I went to A&M - anywho...getting back to work :)
Corinne, you are too funny! I like House but have not seen that episode.
Sandy I do not have a self cleaning house either. When I am done working during the week I go to my other job, maid of the house of suz. I am not well compensated at that job either!
<----- wishes she had engineering skills to really start working on that robot.
Ya know, I have no problem cleaning other people's homes. I just have a big problem with mine, I just lack motivation in that arena.
Ladies, it was fun hanging with you all but Plato and his 'Symposium' are waiting for me.
Gosh, this is gonna be so much fun! Lol
See you tomorrow!
bye corinne! Have a good one! Don't have too much fun!
Bye Corinne, have a good evening!
Bye Corinne!
I don't get paid very well either Suz. I swear I pick up the same freakin' matchbox car 50 times a day.
I just got paid for laundry! $1.14 is all mine.
Whoo hoo Sandy! You got a raise didn't you? lol.
Looks like it and I didn't have to grovel either!
New post up at MWOP. Very interesting.
Very quiet in here today! Hope everyone is okay!
Ya know what really sucks is when you have no income beyond the penance you get from unemployment and in your community there are 6 different places to get low income medical help and you get told you dont make enough to be seen.
It just makes me grouchy because I would really like to see if there is anything I can do or get to help with my migraines and that would be a big fat NO because I dont have enough income.
That sucks Shannon! No bueno!
Alright ladies, I'm outta here!
See ya later!
That stinks Shannon!
Yeah it does suck but I guess I will continue doing what I have done for years and just deal with it. I cannot wait till I am done with school and can actually afford to get insurance or even have it offered by an employer LOL
I did get good news today though. Even though I must drive the 45+ minutes to Salem to actually take my test for my math class...I learned today that we are able to have a sheet of notes so I dont have to panic that I cant remember all of the formulas and stuff.
Shannon - have you looked into insurance through the school? I did that when I first went to A&M about 6 years ago. Just a thought!
They have a clinic you can go to there at the campus but when I transfer to my 4 year college it is one of the things I have been looking into so that I can be insured for a while. Yeah unfortunately the community college I am at right now doesnt offer off campus insurance options :(
My SIL is in labour right now! She started labour early this a.m. but they sent her home again and then she went back and we're just waiting to hear word!
awesome FT! Hope all goes well! Do you know what she is having?
That's so exciting FT...is it her first baby?
I'm missing RiM, SW and AP! :(
and CK!
Oh, AP says send pork STAT!
Where is everyone?
Hey Christy! How are you?
How exciting FT...hope she has a nice easy labor
FT - yeah for active labor! No going back now...
Is this your brother's wife, or your husband's sister?
Makin' bacon for AP....
Hey CK! How are you?
Kristin - I'm good but tired. Busy week at both jobs, plus some church stuff.
How are you?
Kristin, I saw your post for gift ideas for a three year old.
Hands down, the best gift is.....walkie talkies. Kids love them!!! And, I think at three if you found basic ones, he could totally work it, too.
How is everyone :) About to dig into some salsa chicken. Be back soon!
Hi Kristin. Not too much going on here. Loved your blog post yesterday...it was cute.
hee hee! Yeah, pretty uninspired.
Bella - dammit! Already got something but that is an AWESOME idea. Maybe I will go back tomorrow and see if I can find something at wal-mart.
I had Lindsey's soup and it was good, I think I need to add a bit more spice. LM ate the chicken and the cheese! I didn't think I would like all the beans but I really enjoyed it! And the chicken is great, I put 5 breasts in so I could eat more later!
This SIL is the wife of my brother (the lawyer, I've talked about him a few times), my only sibling. And it is their first, I am SO excited! I do have 12 nephew/nieces on my husband's side but this is the first on my side! Will be first grandchild on SIL's side, 3rd on my side.
I *truly think (hope) it's a boy. I think they know it so I'm going on weird clues and signals and such. God I hope it's a boy, I have a huge box upstairs wrapped and ready to go filled with boy stuff. Yup, it's gonna be a boy, that's how sure I am of it!
Gimme a B, gimme an O, gimme a Y
All for FT!
Keep us posted, FT.
Say, Bella, was it you who suggested the dog toys the other evening? The tough ones that dogs can't destroy in 10 minutes?
OMG! I just had a heart attack. I could not find my camera. I looked everywhere.
Finally found it. My little munchkin put it in his nebulizer box - little stinker!
CK, yep :) Did you get them in the mail? Did your pup shred them!?
Bella,
They came in the mail today - no shredding yet. We bought him two of the mini ones and put one away for now. Thanks for the recommendation!
I'm glad he didn't destroy it yet! I tell you, those last the longest at our house as a "soft" toy.
LOL I am soooo not doing good with thinking about changing my diet around but then again I have to wait till grocery day next week before I can get better food in the house.
Last night we had mashed taters and country fried steak with lots of sausage gravy.....tonight bite sized chicken fried steaks, biscuits, and lots of sausage gravy again.
HAHAHA no wonder why my muffin top is exploding.
Hi all! Hope everyone had a good day.
Kristin - glad you liked it. We had it for dinner tonight, too.
Yay FT to be a new auntie!
Shannon - I wanna move in with you and eat chicken fried steaks and gravy. Yummmm.
Our household has an interesting version of Pavlov's Classical Conditioning.
Husband shaking the martini shaker vigorously brings the dog running.
Why, you may ask?
Because, along with my foo-foo martini, I usually eat a small 1 oz bag of Cheetos (to enforce portion control). My dog loves most food items (garbage hound, he is), but he seems to especially love all things crunchy and salty - popcorn, nuts, and yes, Cheetos.
So martini shaker noise brings about Pavlovian response in tiny dog of German heritage.
HAHA that is too funny CK....right now Tyr is in the kitchen "helping" daddy eat his chex mix stuff while dinner is cooking.
Shannon - oh yeah, I bet daddy needs "help" with that.
you know it.....that little dog is more than willing to help with anything that involves food.
He should honestly be a 90lb 2 foot tall dog.
On the subject of dogs, does anyone know why a dog would get bald spots?
Oz has these little baldy patches on his sides and top. No food change, the area where he is bald is not inflamed, nor does he itch. He just has hair loss. He has *very short hair to begin with.
I'm not quite sure it warrants a trip to the vet, as he's not ill. Jay says he has "Dog Pattern Baldness".
It's just odd.
I know that Tyr has a couple of spots that had been scabs that are bald right now. If Oz isnt out playing rough with his buddies then I dont know why he would be loosing hair like that.
I would probably take him in just to make sure it isnt some type of parasite or skin problem. Sometimes things like that can start small and become something much worse.
Sigh, you are probably right, Shannon. He does play rough when his doggie buds come over, but it's been awhile since he has seen them.
I'll put a vet appointment on my list of things to do :/
CK -- Do tell about your foofy martini.
FT - I hope you have a beautiful new nephew by the next time you report back here.
Sandy -- your laundry job is better than mine. I made $0.25 and a bra underwire today.
Bella -- I do not know. If it's not inflamed or "hot" or anything? Although I do know about strapping kotex pads to the side of a horse's head with brightly colored vet wrap I am, sadly, not almost a vet.
Shannon -- that sucks with the insurance. Oregon sucks ass in general with regards to insurance.
Kristin - I'm glad you liked the soup. We had the ol' fraziole tonight, which as weird and wrong as it feels when I'm making it, never fails to get rave reviews 'round these parts. (I had cabbage diet soup with chicken, but still.) Shannon, I feel your pain in teh trying to eat better. Frickin' gravy will be the death of me yet.
In a total aside, if you were the "new" boy/girlfriend in a relationship (and this is not referring to me, so be totally honest) and you were giving cash to your new boy/girlfriend's 9-year old, what amount do you feel is appropriate?
Oh. To clarify. The question about money is in regard to a birthday present for a 9-year old. Cash.
Hi RiM :)
Is it the 9 year old's birthday? Why are you giving money? I would say around $20? Maybe I am cheap, but a 9 year old should be cheaper than a teenager :D
No hot spots. Just normal skin under the bald areas. No itching or anything out of the ordinary. I started giving him Fish Oil softgels...he likes to poke a hole in them with his tooth and drink the stinky stuff out. Gross.
hmmmm.....I would say $15.00 - $20.00 but can this person ask the significant other how much is too much?
For some cousin's kids I give $50. Some I give $100, because we started high and they reciprocated and then I kind of got stuck (and I guess they did too). I think $50 is generous.
No baby news yet!
And thanks for all your good wishes!
** new post **
I slipped away for a bit. Will try to be back later.
Just shoot me.
Totally off topic - but did you see the found the body of the actor (from Growing Pains) in Vancouver. It appears he committed suicide. Such a shame!
Makes me think of Amy - hi Amy, hope you and your family are doing well!
Whoops, maybe I went a little high. That's what we give and what they give back too, it's hard to keep track of sometimes, but that's how we've done it. I've done gift cards too, or if I find a really great sale item I think they'll like I'll do a gift + some money or gift card.

Yes, you said this...
