Have a great Monday Everyone - I fly back on Wednesday:(

Stephanie said...

Wow, so glad you will be off the peninsula when Fay blows through...

Tina said...

Morning Ladies... and Steph... I was thinking the EXACT same thing!!

Love you LA! glad you will be tucked in safe and sound at HOME.

Anonymous said...

Happy Monday...right one Leighann!! woohoo a few more days at home!!!

Thanks Kathi for that confirmation class...our bible study class is mostly Catholics and I'm Lutheran...pretty much same with very little differences in interpretation...your dinner sounded wonderful...never heard of the resteraunt you went to :)

Tina....did you get the furniture???

Marci ...good morning :) Hope your morning went smooth!!

Anonymous said...

Tina...we're on a bible study break for the next 3 Mondays, so I'm good for the gym, if you are...otherwise, I'll either go on my own or ride my bike :) This week I'm good for today and tomorrow :)...Will walk morning break and lunch time this week !! go go go!! :D

Leigh Ann said...

Made a post on the blog then I walked the kids to the bus stop at 6:25 this am, kissed Paul goodbye as he left for work and told Rayna I would see her this afternoon... then I went back to bed. I SLEPT FOR ALMOST THREE HOURS!!! Still can't believe it! Must have been tired:D Feel great now!


Steph, yes, Fay needs to die down!!!

Brenda, always so busy - I hope it's doing stuff you enjoy!

Tina,
Furniture?

Kathi said...

WOW, LA; you must have been really tired - maybe from all the back and forth stuff? Do you think PCola is gonna get hit by Fay? I'm "two ways" on that...kind of hope it doesn't, cuz you won't have anything to go back to, as far as work, but then again, I hope it does, cuz you get more family time :D (or would they "ship" you somewhere else?...no pun intended about the ship)

Tina said...

Hi all!

We go back to look at furniture again tonight. Picked a sofa and loveseat, tables, and an entertainment center... (not real hip on the center) now need lamps and a chair. THEN since what he picked is a sage green in color (very pretty) I will need new curtains and accent pillows etc...

*sigh* all i wanted was a new comforter and curtains for my bedroom... LOL

Tina...that is soooo funny!! And EXCITING :D I love the color scheme too :) WOOWEE!!!!

Awww Leighann...good for you, you must have really needed that sleep!
Very nice that you were there to kiss the hubby off to work and see the kids off :) I must go look at your blog!! I like to have fun :) Sometimes things get crammed together and it takes away from it abit...

Kathi...I'm hoping the weather just goes away down there in the south!! Talked to a friend of mine last night...She lives in Sarasota..then we have friends north of that ...then Leighann..Faye needs to go away!! :)

Leigh Ann said...

I just finished dusting the house and I am turning over laundry as I go. Fixing to load the diswasher. Having fun cleaning my house.

Stephanie said...

Tina, I wish I had your problem! :) No worries here, about my husband and any new furniture! I think he would rather have his eyeballs clawed out by a rabid groundhog.

Anonymous said...

LMAO!! Oh Steph...that's really awful LOL

Leighann :) so glad you're having fun tending to your house chores!!!

Noboyz said...

hey all.....
gosh.. finally get a break...
too funny all ya'lls posts...

can't wait to see furniture posts...
Steph, please don't take your hubby furniture shopping!!! LMAO

Leigh Ann, anytime you want to come further down the Bayou and do some chores... let me know! I always have extras pending... LOL

Brenda, enjoy your extra work outs....

Kathi, thanks for updating on the confirmation... I forget everyone is different religions.

Leigh Ann said...

Stephanie,
LOL!!!Too funny about John and the furniture.
Marci,
I will let you know when I am in town:)

Just found out that Rayna's high school had a code red...they were put on lock down at like 1030...but, I guess they got the guy that was making the threats. Tori is updating me from Bristol!!!!! Local news isn't saying a lot about the current status - just the history of the situation. And Rayna's phone broke yesterday - it's in my purse!!!! DAMN IT!

Leigh Ann said...

The guy was the father of a high school student, who with the rest of his family went into hiding due to domestic violence. The father held the domestic violence "worker" (?) up at gun point and then threatend to kidnap his son from school...

Leigh Ann said...

OK...that sounds so confusing and I kinda of know what happened. Sorry, guess they got the father who was making the threats, so the lock down should be over...

Noboyz said...

Damn... I hate when that happens.... these people always seem to loose it and drag their kids in it...
I followed it.... LOL
been there done that!!! LOL

Tina said...

WOW... glad to hear the scariness is over!!!

I remember that day at Wangenheim... we were freaking out... remember LA?

Glad all is well. Love you all!!

Anonymous said...

omg...Leighann...so glad it's over now....AGAIN ...ugh!! Go back and find your happy place LOL!!!

Leigh Ann said...

Yes, I talked to Rayna and they were in code red for a long time and then code yellow and finally it went back to normal...geez!

Noboyz said...

that is so scary for those kids... especially starting high school and new school....
Thank goodness she is safe!

Leigh Ann said...

Yes, and Tori was freaking out it Bristol...LOL...it's kinda of funny now - not the incident, but my daughters' attitudes. Rayna was like - I was so glad that I was in
PE! And Tori was like - you need to tell Rayna that it is instances like this one when she should have her cell phone on! LOL!!!!!

Noboyz said...

Big Mama Sista Tori!!!!!! Love it!

It's funny... had it been a few years back she would have not been so worried.... but growing up, it gets a little different!

Kathi said...

Yeah, it does. It's so good to hear that Tori (and she's absolutely right, btw--about the cell phone being on) is so worried about her baby sister; and she's, what, three hours away? But that's so weird that SHE would hear about it before you guys

Kathi said...

No problem about the confirmation, Marci; I just didn't think everyone would know what that is

Leigh Ann said...

Happy Tuesday All!!!

Tina, sorry I missed your call back - I was dozing off! LOL!

I have to take the Van to the shop today - ugh!

Noboyz said...

good morning all...

Leigh Ann, another vehicle in the shop! Ugh is right.

Kathi, no worries here.. just thanking you.. I don't think about different religions sometimtes...

Anonymous said...

hello to all :) Happy Tuesday!!!!
Leighann...best wishes at the shop with the van...I know you'll have a good book to keep you company :) Leighann...remember Gina from the tanning place (who ended up leaving) ..she had 2 of the girl's at the gym with her last evening...she still looks as beautiful as she always does :) fellow bloggers...she gave birth to TWELVE children...she has at least one set of twins

TINA>>>TALK ABOUT YOUR NEW FURNITURE!!! :D must hear all the scoop!!

Helllo to you Marci!! and to Steph and Kathi

Anonymous said...

Heard from my brother yesterday :) when Steve dropped him off 4pm Friday 10 days ago in LA...he went, driving the whole time, with his engineer in the truck...to San Diego by the border, Ohio, Minnesota and is leaving from Atlanta today to ??? don't know...she's doing good and sounded really tired..but said the truck is state of the art and is comfortable to sleep in :) My sister was bummed she couldn't see him (she lives 100 miles south of Atlanta) but we are pretty sure he'll go through again sometime...I'm just really proud of him and happy he's doing what he wants :D

Tina said...

Good Morning Ladies!!!

LeighAnn it was sooooo good to hear your voice last night!! I am sorry I didnt call sooner... We were in that damned furniture store for 3 freaking hours... but... my new living room gets delivered on Friday!!!

Fred is trying to pick drapes... I was like Uh - dude... we have to wait till the furniture comes in so we can coordinate... lol.

Tonight after the gym we are going to Best Buy... for a big screen tv. *sigh* I think Fred has forgot we are in the middle of a recession. LOL

Anonymous said...

Oh Tina...so excited for you all :) I'm sure it's going to look grand in your living room !!!!

Noboyz said...

Brenda, so glad your brother is enjoying his new line of work! that is wonderful!

and WOW to the mom with 12 children! unreal these days... congrats to her on keeping herself looking beautiful!

Leigh Ann, hoping the repairs are not very expensive...

and hello, did Fred hit the LOTTO and no one knows!! LMAO... go Fred...
I could have a good time shopping with Fred... Mike HATES to shop... he gets aggravated with me.. b/c I look at everything 3 times he says... LOL

Tina said...

I asked him the same thing last night Marci!! TOO funny!! And he was a bit frustrated with me after 3 hours... lol.

I am NOT a shopper by nature... and he is... so - we just do the whole Role Reversal there.. I pay the bills off and he does the shopping. BUT... when it comes to my house... I must have final say. LOL

Noboyz said...

too funny Tina....

yes, usually it is the other way around huh?

I'm trying to figure out what I want to do next in my house... LOL

Anonymous said...

Oh the fun!! Marci are you thinking of moving??? Glad you have the final say Tina :) LOL...

speaking of Lotto...must put my dollar into the pool for tomorrow night :) !!!!!!!! LOL

Noboyz said...

I have to get a few tickets myself!

No, Brenda, not moving.... we've been in our house now for almost 10 years... I'm finally getting it where I want it! Just keep changing things...
:) Just running out of bedrooms! Mylee will be with KK a while... b/c when Sam moves out.. Gabs said she gets her room back! LOL

I'm trying to talk Mike into closing in the carport and making a deck thru the french doors of the living room....
won't do it.... big butt!
I wanted a computer/entertainment room for the kids and family fun...
he says too much trouble!

Anonymous said...

Marci...maybe he'll change his mind as the baby gets more mobile LOL...your idea sounds really exciting...you should do one of those quick makeovers when you know he's gonna be gone longer than a few days...have your plan of action thought out and ready in advance and then when he leaves....LOL...then when he comes home...he can't say it was too much trouble...for him anyway LOL

Noboyz said...

love that idea Brenda!!!!!

My younger brother tore down some old cypress barns on a plantation acreage... he has more than enough to do my double carport and line the inner walls and ceiling with cypress... it would be gorgeous!
MB knows my projects make him work hard!!! LOL

how is your wrist?

Leigh Ann said...

Marci,
That does sound like a neat idea...maybe he will change his mind. He should talk to Fred!

LOL!

Tina,
Can't wait to see all the new stuff and the shiny TV. And most importantly the new bedroom ensemble!

Stephanie,
Will have to get together with you guys on Labor Day Weekend if we don't decide to head towards Bristol - Tori has two games that weekend, but it also depends on her back injury...

Brenda,
Be sure to give Bennett our cell phone numbers...

Still no word on the van and we are in a rental. Then I had an emergency orthodontist appt because Mackenzie spacer bracket whoha thinge broke and it was cutting her mouth! What fun - picked her up from the school nurse and off we went. Had to order Rayna a new cell phone cause Dailen tripped and broke hers...isn't life grand?

Already getting sad and bitchy and I haven't even left yet!

Stephanie said...

Leigh Ann, give us a yell if you all are free on that weekend, and maybe we can coordinate something.

Don't be sad about going back to work. The bitchy/angry part can be fuel for the drive, but we don't like the sad part...we don't do that here, honey! :)

Anonymous said...

:( Leighann...I'm sad for you ....you sure did alot today...all for the family :)

Marci...now that sounds BEAUTIFUL...do it!!! :D

ok...toodles to all!

Noboyz said...

Leigh Ann, am hoping you have recouped from your big day...

did any fingernails or toenails get taken care of? LOL

all for the team!!!


seems like everyone has lots going on...
I know I am tired at the end of the day!

Kathi said...

I didn't have too much going on today...just more rest for my footsie; waiting anxiously for Friday's Scan and next week's appt with the Podiatrist (that's the appt. that will let us know if I'm having surgery)

Leigh Ann said...

Good Morning!

LOL Stephanie! We will give you guys a call.

Marci,
Everyone survived! LOL!

Brenda,
Thanks:(

And to top it all off - Paul and me are both getting sick with sore throats. Dailen has a cough...ugh! I guess streph was going around on Mackenzie's soccer team.

Well, I am going to finish helping get the kids ready to catch the bus...

Kathi said...

Wow, they catch the bus early! What time do they start?

Stephanie said...

Oh yes, the sore throat, Leigh Ann. That is how mine started, 2 weeks ago. I mean, a vicious sore throat. Hurt all the way into my ears when I swallowed. Take care of yourself!

Leigh Ann said...

They start at 7:30 and end at 2:30 - the bus picks them up at 6:25. Rayna is like an hour behind them.

Fixing to go pack up my suitcase, Ms. Judy is picking me up at 1100 and my flight leaves at 1:00.

Anonymous said...

Awww Leighann...take care of you!!!
Tell Ms Judy we said hello to her and Mr Allen :) I can't believe you and Paul are now getting sick...crap, Paul, absolutely, can't UGH! I so feel for him!!

Kathi...thinking about you!! I know this is weighing heavily on you :(

Steph...glad you're getting back to normal :) That's just awful to be sick, especially in the summer
:(

Marci...hope you have a good day and not too tired after the bell rings :D

Hello Tina :D

Tina said...

Morning Ladies!!!

I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.

LA - thinkin about cha honey!!
Brenda - sent the email to Steve!
Marci - I betcha you ARE tired after your day! So much to do!
Steph - Hey girl!
Kathi - Good luck with the footsie!

Gonna be a busy day - final cuts for volley ball (or so she says) Focus Group #2
Storage guys coming to drop off a Big Bin for our furniture we are gonna store for awhile.
Whew... is it the weekend yet?? lol

Noboyz said...

Kathi, keep that footsie propped.... :) it sounds like it is working..

Leigh Ann& Steph,
I had someone move here from TEnneessee and she said the older kids start after the younger ones... that's a trip.... we are just the opposite.. :)
sore throats going around my house as well.. but just scratchy for a few days and then goes away...
(thank God!)no time to be sick.

Good morning everyone!

Anonymous said...

LOL...good afternoon everyone :) Hope all is well !!! Leighann...thinking about you and your return to Florida

Tina said...

Hey ladies!! Now finishing off my day at home... Good news... JENNA MADE THE TEAM!!! We wont know if Freshman or JV until Friday - but she IS a MARAUDER VOLLEYBALLER!!!

Oh...if you guys havent seen Steve's comment on my blog... you simply MUST go for a good laff!!!

Kathi said...

Just went there, Tina; and left a comment myself...you're so funny

Propping my foot up is getting tiring; I'd much rather be walking around the complex or something; called the doc's office to set up the appt next week, and they said they're working on his schedule (not holding my breath though), so we'll see...gotta call again tomorrow, and then again on Friday, if nothing happens tomorrow

Noboyz said...

good job Kathi!

Go Jenna!!!!

I'm going to the blog now.... Tina...

Leigh Ann said...

Hi all,
I made it back, thanks to everyone for thinking of me:)

Noboyz said...

glad you made it safe and sound Leigh Ann.. is the weather bad there? I know the storm still has it rocking a little....

Tina said...

Hey ladies!
LeighAnn... hows the weather?? I have been worrying about you!

Well... my living room is now empty. Getting the carpet cleaned tomorrow... and the furniture comes on friday.

Im beat...

Gonna go put my footsies up... :o)

Leigh Ann said...

The weather is good. Going to bed, will be back with a :) tomorrow!

Kathi said...

Glad you're back safe and sound; and that the weather's good

Well, I caved and put my boot back on :(; although it still hurts in the boot, it just feels better (if that makes sense); like more secure or something

Hope your footsies are nice and rested tomorrow, Tina

Marci, I've been meaning to ask you this for the longest time..... did you guys get hit really bad with Hurricane Katrina?

Anonymous said...

Hey Leighann...hope the day is good for you :) and the weather too!!

CONGRATS JENNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTG!!
Tina...excited for you!!!!! and Fred :)

Kathi...I know what you mean...my wrist brace really helps..although I have to take mine off now and again for kitchen chores...but my doc told me to keep mine on LOL..wishing you well as you move through all your appts :)

Hey Marci and Steph...hoping you girls have a good day today :D

Noboyz said...

Good morning ladies!

Brenda & kathi, glad your injuries are healing slowly but surely.
Brenda, keep us updated on your brother's travels... I bet it is a great job to travel... tiring though.

Tina, can't wait to see the pics.... fun!!!!

Leigh Ann, glad the weather is somewhat better, I am sure coming in bans.... do you go home this weekend? or skip and get another long weekend next?

Kathi, Hurricane Katrina, mangled our shed in the back yard and it ended up wrapped around a tree heading for our sliding glass doors in the living room... My roof (entire with wood and all, was lifted from my house and water was blown into my attic... but thank goodness it wasn't torn off... we replaced our roof and repaired.. ceiling etc.... only about $10000 in damages...

My brother lived by the coast and had about $50,000 in damages...

then, 3 weeks later, Hurricane Rita, wripped thru cameron and Lake Charles and my sisters house had $98,000 in damages.. (just the house)
it was horrible....

Fixing to be the 3 year anniversary!!!!!!

Tina said...

Morning Ladies!!

Its my "work week Friday"!!! YAY

Marci - How AWFUL!!! Thank god everyone was safe!

LA - Have a wonderful week. Love you lots!

Brenda - How did things go yesterday? I missed seeing you!

Kathi - perhaps the boot for a few...then some movement... then the boot for a few... etc.?

Steph - Hope you are having a good week!!

Anonymous said...

WOW! Marci...that's amazing about the hurricaines you went thru!! Did your families evacuate during those times?? It's hard to imagine..We lived in Pensacola in the 70's when one went through...but I was a young teenager and didn't really get it...I just remember swimming down the highway..and in the parking lot of our shopping mall LOL...good god...what an idiot!! alligators, water moccasins...never entered my mind back then LOL

Noboyz said...

Brenda, I Know you love the storms.... somewhere I have Katrina and Rita on video tape.... until we thought the tree in my front yard snapped and we took off!!! LOL

as kids, I remember thinking it was all FUN....
just like you swimming in ditches/etc.... you know we wouldn't let our kids do that!!! LOL

Tina, are you off of work trying to get everything done?

Noboyz said...

and FYI, not fun at work with insurance business!!!!

Anonymous said...

Oh Marci :( hang in there it's almost Friday!!!

BTW...that was amazing on your hurricaine experiences...did you all evacuate during them??

Noboyz said...

we didnt....
but My brother had manditory evac as well as my sister....
and it was a week before they even let them get back in to see what happened to their properties..

Kathi said...

WOW; that was just incredible how bad that was. That's good that you're at higher ground than other places got devastated (I know parts of Louisiana is like a bowl and sits below sea level); yeah, I know it's almost the three year anniversary...and I hear that some of the damage is STILL there, which just sickens me...FEMA did a shitty job

FYI: I wasn't left w/o anything for my foot...I did have a little brace on, but my foot just hurt a lot while in it, so that's y I'm back in the boot

That's a good idea, Tina; I will try and do that, just to keep the flexibility in my footsie

Noboyz said...

Kathi,
I see other parts of what happened...
Fema was there, just unprepared.... but the people have also taken advantage of Fema... they still are depending on Fema to pay their bills... HELLO, 3 years later...
it's time to pick up the pieces and get life in order....

Anonymous said...

Marci LOL here here..for those that milk the system...

ok friends....have a good one :) must go...toodles

Tina said...

Hey ladies!

Yes Marci!! I agree with you COMPLETELY!! Its a bit scary but I think we are WAY too much alike! ha!
Hey Brenda, I hope your busy sched. means your having lots of fun!!
Leigh Ann... where are you? Miss ya!

Im off to take the girls to the HS for pictures - their schedule - their PE clothes, etc. After that... its TV shopping...

Leigh Ann said...

Hi all,
Didn't take the laptop today to work...it stinks not being able to chat!

Marci,
I bet you do get swamped after the storms.

Kathi,
Hope that boot helps with the pain.

Tina,
Have fun shopping!

Brenda,
Had a good day, thanks!

Kathi said...

Yeah, I do agree with you on that, Marci...it is past time to move on with their lives; it's not fair to milk fema this far out, cuz there won't be enough funds for the next disaster for them to help THOSE people out; BUT..I say they did a shitty job because they all saw the news and saw how bad it was gonna be (it was a cat 4 in the Gulf)...they could've had people there on the ready

Anyway...got my appt set for next week (YIPPEEEE); it's the 29th

Leigh Ann said...

Kahti,
YAH for you appt.

I counted up my calories that I consumed today...about 500 over from the formula that they give you if you want to lose a pound a week. Gonna work on it and cut some calories - it's better when I have my fruit - with it only about 250 over.

Noboyz said...

I could lose my religion over Fema and the people that milk the system... no one was prepared for that disaster.. anywhere it would have hit... there is no way you could have been... it's hard to explain Kathi... you would have to lived it.....
it's called people panic.... just ordinally reality and life...
sad but true....
I personally NEVER want to live it again....


Leigh Ann, you have been on track for a while... so a slip up now andthen is warranted.... try harder tomorrow...

I've really been on track this week... trying to condition myself for my near future... :)

Tina,,, can't wait to see everything at the finish line!!

Brenda, have fun with all your runnings..... LOL

Kathi said...

Yeah, but still, even when it was a cat 4, which is pretty bad, they could've had people at least THERE...but you're right, unless I lived it, I can't really talk...I hope you and everyone else in the south don't have to live that again either; I think that's why we did leave back in '85 when we were in Fl., cuz you didn't know if it was gonna be worse (and then you wouldn't be able to leave at all)

Yeah, LA, I'm excited about the appt.; I'll for sure let you guys know what happens

Anonymous said...

hello girls :) It's a late night check in for me :) All's good here...had alot of running here and there and had to tend to last minute details before we set up our show tomorrow after I get off work...the sweeties (plants/rocks) are ready to go :)

Leighann..>WTG on the counter of calories!! It's a time of juggling them...I do it poorly in my head LOL ...this weekend you should do stuff to get your mind off of the down time :) do weird stuff that takes alot of focus...

Kathi/Marci ...fascinating talks I read :)

Tina...all eyes on YOU LOL...TV, furniture, party....You had alot of prep with the kids for school :) I'm sure the girl's pictures will be beautiful!!

hugs to all!! my bath awaits LOL

Kathi said...

LOL; I'm very opinionated about stuff like that; not at all personal, Marci

A bath sounds wonderful, Brenda

Well, I'm off to bed, as I have to get up pretty early for the scan (Mom's picking me up at 7:30 :( )

Kathi said...

I'M FREAKING OUT NOW (yes, I'm still up..haven't been to sleep at all); I don't know what to do about my foot - on one hand, I want the surgery, cuz I'm SICK OF DEALING WITH IT AND THE PAIN (and complaining to you guys about it) - on the other hand, I know as I get older, even though I'm a fast healer, it's harder to bounce back after each surgery (not to mention possibly being either on crutches or in a wheelchair for a few months); my mom's going with me to the appt next week, but OH GOSH, do I wish either Brenda or Tina could go with me, just to get an "outsider's" pov (point of view)

Kathi said...

Well, I did ask my IHSS worker to meet us there so she can get an idea of what it's gonna take to take care of me, should I have the surgery; but I'd still rather have someone I've known for a LONG time there...but I know and understand that's not possible

Anonymous said...

Gosh Kathi...that's an incredible load to carry :( I know I just can't commit to something this grand ...If my husband were home during the week...I'd for sure be there for you thru this entire process...but I'm learning my limits due to the heavy load I carry at home and to still have a life outside of the house...and I do know this...I can commit to occassionally, when my schedule allows, to take you out and about or come and visit... :) HUGS!!
Hope as I write this your getting some good rest~

Good morning to everyone else :)

Noboyz said...

Good morning Brenda...

Kathi, I wasn't trying to sound rude... I hope you didn't take it that way...
it's just like when I see the fires in CA, and say, gosh, people just need to do something that is ridiculous.... just another type of disaster.
:) :) :)
hope your appointment goes well and you are out of pain soon.

Tina is getting new furniture today! Can't wait to see pics...

Steph, LA, Crystal, Rima,
good morning!!!!

Tina said...

Morning Ladies.

Gotta go get Jenna out of bed for volleyball practice - then Tia and I head over to the base to pick up the tables and chairs.

Furniture comes today... not sure what time... and then i need to find drapes. I know THAT wont happen by tomorrow... *sigh*

Brenda - Hope you are having a wonderful time getting ready for your show and hope to see you tonight! Miss you! LOL.

Leigh Ann - You just give me a call if you need me... or just wanna talk. Love yoU so!

Kathi - good luck with the appt today.

Marci and Steph - HAPPY FRIDAY LADIES!

Kathi said...

I rested for AN HOUR, but I didn't really sleep; I just hopped in the tub to get ready for Mom; thank you so much brenda; I certainly don't want to take you away from your home and family...I was just basically venting (like always)..so I'll probably be on here a lot in the next week, "letting my fingers do the talking" ...... Bren, when you're making a trip to the commissary or wherever, I do need to go to the recycling center again :D ?

Tina said...

Hey Marci! We passed in comment world! Love ya girly! Havea great Friday!

Kathi said...

Is there a soccer game tonight??? I sure would like to go ..... :(

Marci, you weren't rude at all! I hope I wasn't rude ... yeah, most of the fires here are intentionally set (and this time--last year-- HALF OF THE ENTIRE COUNTY, ONE MILLION PEOPLE, had to evacuate

Ok, I'll check in later... Mom's gonna be here in a few

Tina said...

Kathi - It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to go to a game. There is no way to get you from the parking lot to the field. Brenda has tried to tell you that easily. We feel bad every time you ask so I personally wish you would stop.
I do not want you to think I am being mean or rude... it is simply a fact. And every time you say you wish you could go... I feel bad and Brenda feels worse. Please understand if it were somewhere more accessible - we would take you.

Anonymous said...

Yes, Kathi...next week we can get together and make a recycle run...Hmmm I have stuff that needs to go too :) I do agree with Tina on the soccor games though...it really is too difficult to get you there....it's a long uphill walk from the parking lot...then more hills and stairs...it just wouldn't work...I know you'd like to be there...and I would like for you too ...but it's gotta be something you can physically do to...So, with that...in spirit and support on the blog....we can cheer each other on!!!

Take care Kathi at your doc appts!!! We are here for you on the blog :) HUGS!

Noboyz said...

Oh Tina, Jenna is having to get up early and go practice huh!!!! Big "soccer"... oops... "Volleyball" champ!!!! LMAO

Kathi, good luck at your appt... and no, you weren't being rude... I just get headstrong sometimes and wanted to make sure I wasn't...
it's cool... :)

Leigh Ann,
whats up Honey?

Brenda, you are so sweet to think of everyone!

Kathi said...

Bren and Tina, I totally forgot what Bren had said about it being up hills and stairs; thank you for thinking of my poor footsies; hopefully, someday, we can do something together (the 3 of us)

Bren, that sounds great about next week; just can't be Friday, cuz that's my appt with the Podiatrist (unless we can do it in the morning..have to get back to you on that)

Marci, I can be headstrong too..YIKES

Kathi said...

The appt. today was probably the quickest one I've ever had..the scan took all of maybe ten minutes; we were in the car leaving at my actual appt time (8:15); now I'm at my parents doing laundry

Anonymous said...

Hey Kathi...glad you're done with that visit :) Have fun doing laundry!!! LOL

gosh...miss all our other blogger friends :)

Hi everyone...didn't bring my laptop again, I don't think I will much.

Furniture, jewelry, laundry, recycling...I miss a lot during the day, darn it!

Steph, Crystal and Rima hope you join us soon!

Kathi said...

Yeah, where are those three wittle wascals?

Home now..and COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED, which is a good thing; means I'll actually sleep tonight (hopefully, and if I don't take a nap)

Still having an EXTREMELY hard time struggling about what to do about my footsie...guess all I can do is pray on it and see which direction I'm led

Leigh Ann said...

Yes, ask the doctor what they would do if it was their foot...

Tina said...

Furniture here...had to have one of the tiers to the entertainment center returned... it was all scratched up... so... now Fred will be sitting here all night waiting for freaking Jeromes to redeliver a new piece! DAMN IT - nothing EVER goes right the first time...

Leigh Ann said...

Geez, I hate that - just want what you pay for, you know?

Tina said...

WOW!! That was FAST!! They just finished dropping it off and instlling it!! ITS SO PRETTY!!! I will get pictures this weekend and post them to my blog!! Its soo nice! I love it!!!

Noboyz said...

Kathi said...

GOOD CALL LA, about asking the doctor what he would do if it was him....just one more question of my laundry list of them I'm gonna be asking...I need to start writing this shit down before I forget

Kathi said...

Hey Marci

Noboyz said...

Hey Kathi,
hopefully those questions for the doctor will help you with your decision...

Kathi said...

Hopefully...just wrote them all down; anymore that you guys can think of?

LA, I'm gonna email you a pic of me w/my new glasses..gonna be off my cell phone :D (and then, if you can, put it on the blog)

Noboyz said...

Oh good Kathi, can't wait to see...your new glasses....

KK & Mylee are sleeping away from home... .sigh.... nervous here...

she has to be home by 7:00 a.m. because I will be gone and Mike has to go to work.... so shouldn't be bad... just "my little baby away from hme!!!!"....
I'm bad....
Lord knows what will happen in 5 years when they "TRY"and move out...
I'll tackle them and hurt them... they won't go anywheres!!!! LOL

Leigh Ann said...

OK...will do!

Noboyz said...

Hey sis....

Leigh Ann said...

Meant that for posting Kathi's picture...LOL...oh, Marci that is tough!

Leigh Ann said...

Not a lot...watching a Lifetime movie... crocheting...

Kathi said...

LMAS; you do not; I watch Lifetime movies all the time (the ones that sound interesting to me, anyway); pic is sent..taken in my bathroom..hope you can see the glasses, if not let me know and i'll retake it

Noboyz said...

yes you do... wish I knew how.... to crochet!!!!!!
KK and Sam do (I think)...
a little anyways....

I'm thinking about ordering a sewing machine for them for Christmas.. they both LOVE sewing.......

Leigh Ann said...

Wish I could sew...even with a sewing machine!

Noboyz said...

I figured you knew how to sew since you crochet so well.....

Kathi said...

My grandma used to sew and make most of our clothes..she was incredible at it, too; sorry for interjecting

Leigh Ann said...

No, never learned - Jeanine did. No worries, Kathi! Will post the pic tomorrow.

Going to bed...have a killer sinus headache. Talk to you ladies, tomorrow.

Kathi said...

Yeah, I'm about to do a face-plant on the keyboard myself...

Talk to ya'll tomorrow; and that's fine, LA

Leigh Ann said...

Good Morning Everyone!
