Hey girls - here we go again!

Leigh Ann said...

Tina, good luck in court!

Tina said...

Another week. Where the HELL did the year go???

Tina said...

Day 2 dog bite pics posted... OMG - its so nasty.

Kathi said...

I know the economy sucks right now and people need money, but can't Fred take tomorrow off, Tina; just to give an extra day might not be a bad idea (just in case there's an infection brewing)

Anonymous said...

Oh Marci...I'm so sorry for your being so sick :( Sometimes a flu shot can cause the flu...UGH!! I hope you're feeling better tomorrow!!

Leighann...what a nice dinner you had at the pub :) Sounds very nice!! I hope you don't have a sinus infection!!!

Tina..sorry to hear about the girl's picnic not going too well
:( I'll have to check out your blog about Fred...poor guy!!

My visit with Ben is really nice...he went shopping for his groceries to take on the road Tuesday...too cute!! He went from Calif to Arizona..New Mexico...Texas ..Alabama..Mississippi...Louisiana..Florida...Georgia...Tennessee...North Carolina ..Virginia..WestVirginia...Kentucky..Ohio...Missouri...Arkansas...Oklahoma...Indiana...Illinois...Wisconsin...Michigan... :) WOW!

Anonymous said...

oops it was North Carolina...and I left out Wiscosin and Michigan :) Gotta get it right LOL

Kathi said...

WOW; I love driving, but that's even a bit much for ME...glad your visit's going nice

Thank you Bren, Marci and LA about your comments on my blog; I'm on "duty" now...just finished eating, and now Dad is watching the World Series and I'm on here :D (he likes to have his space, so I always come on the computer after I make sure he's comfortable

Kathi said...

I have a cousin in NC (who I haven't seen in almost 18 years - she's one of the younger sisters of the cousin that came out for Mom's service (I mentioned Kevin on my blog in the post about my mom and aunt; he has three sisters)

Tina said...

Hi all... Hey Kathi - yes Fred could take the day if he wanted. He has sick leave - but he says hes "fine". We dont have to worry too much about infection as they put him on antibiodics for the next 10 days... and when we rebandage we use the triple antibiodic cream on the wounds...

I wish he would sit around HERE... but now, I get back from Costco and hes washing my car for crying out loud!!

Anonymous said...

Oh good grief...MEN LOL...Tina...that man is instopable!!! Glad he's on the antibiotics...if you see a red line traveling...go to the ER!!!

Kathi...that's nice about the family here and there...and yes, my brother is EVERYWHERE!!! He's so cute when I tell him the girls asking about him...he's like REALLY
:) I tell him, yes, the girls are all asking where you are and how you are :) he's so cute!! Tonight he asked which shirt he should wear (he went clothes shopping for winter) for his evening out with his best friend Lisa :) LOL he wore the one I recommended..LOL...I will be delivering a $50.00 bouquet of my choosing to deliver to Lisa next week after he leaves :) so sweet..he wanted Lisa to have flowers delivered because she is so special to him and works so hard with her jobs and kids....precious!!

Kathi said...

What I'm also wondering is why the hell they didn't use stitches to close the wounds...those are HUGE bite marks; they look like they could've come from a small bear, not a dog....

Kathi said...

Are we talking SIL material, Bren? I'm so glad that Ben is out dating again...I think he deserves to be happy; and that was so cute what you wrote at the beginning of your post...you made a little rhyme if you hadn't noticed...you could be a Dr. Seuss writer

Kathi said...

The "duty nurse" is signing off for tonight; see ya'll tomorrow back at my house

Stephanie said...

Kathi, I think when you have puncture wounds they want to leave the wounds open so your body can push out any trash or other nasties. Bite wounds are really gross because of the bacteria in a mouth. Has Fred stopped bleeding, Tina?

I showed my husband the pic of Fred's leg as he was coming out of the shower...he said, "WOAH!!!!". You can really see how big the wounds are from that perspective. Gosh, his whole leg has to be sore.

Stephanie said...

We were wondering, how the dog bit him. It looked really weird. Only the incisors sunk in? There was no lower row of bite marks? Too weird.

Stephanie said...

Leigh Ann, I hope it's not an infection. What you are having sounds exactly like mine was. And, the headaches are still lingering, after almost a month. Doc thought it might be tension and stress, and maybe so, somewhat, but I think I am just still a little sick. I never took anything for it.

Stephanie said...

Brenda, your brother sounds like a total sweetheart! :)

Tina, yuck about court. Exhibition of speed...they make it sound like you were drag racing. My court date for my ticket went well, actually. The judge was not there, and some lawyer came in and sat at his chair and spoke to each person individually, and dismissed most of the tickets, I believe, as long as no priors...I hope yours goes well.

Tina said...

Hey Ladies... Happy Monday.

Ya know Steph, not really sure... Neither is he! LOL. He just remembers jogging past the woman and her dog with about 5 foot of space between them and then the dog on his leg from behind dragging him to the ground... there is lots of bruising but those are the only holes..thank god.

Tina said...

Oh Kathi -they dont stitch animal bites or people bites. Too much Ickyness in mouths. Need to be able to "ooze" to cleanse.

And it is still bleeding but not like it was.

Jave a great monday everyone! Brenda hug Bennet! LeighAnn, I hope your feeling betterh!!!

Tina said...

wow... what the hell is "jave" and "betterh"?? hahaha

Anonymous said...

Hey all!! It's Monday and we are closer to Friday now...because of Monday :) WOOHOO!!

Leighann hope you're feeling better today :)

Hello nite nurse Kathi :) My brother and Lisa are best friends for now...not dating (Hmmm or maybe they aren't admitting it LOL) He really is a nice guy ..

Steph...have a good day :)

Marci...thinking about you!!

Tina...hope Fred got a good nites sleep :) Hope your day is a good one!!

Kathi said...

Back home now; got in a little after 930 this am; now it's nap time...these early mornings are killin me

Anonymous said...

Enjoy the nap Kathi :) I'm sure they are hard if you aren't used to it..

I had to take a nap at lunch instead of my usual walking...I'm wiped out!!!!!!!! UGH!...I do not like feeling this way :( Hoping to walk on my afternoon break...I did get my morning walk in though

Tina said...

Hey Brenda... you are gyming it today too... so no worries! We will SWEAT IT OUT today! LOL

Tina said...

Hey ladies! Well Fred stayed home all day. Which was probably a really good thing.
Brenda and I worked out.
Now Im making Baked Mostaccioli and Garlic Bread. YUMMY!!!

Tina said...

wow...too quiet. Marci girl...where are you? How are you feeling? You are worrying me!

I hope you feel better.

Im gonna hit the shower and try to snuggle with Fred without hurting his leg... tomorrow we go to "kangaroo court" on base (as fred calls it) to do battle with Cpl Stone... ass hole. haha.

Kathi said...

HOLY CRAP, did I just get the phone call to end all phone calls.....my sister just told me that my dad had told his nurse .... that he's afraid that he's not gonna wake up (had to swallow REALLY HARD before I wrote that);, just like Mom didn't ..... I'm going back up there tomorrow; I asked her if she thought he was actually grieving for her...she said maybe in his own way, but can't really express it ...... ok, I'm starting to fall of the edge again, so I have to go....

Tina said...

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Kathi - Im sorry youre having a rough day again.

I just realized that I probably wont even see Cpl. Stone today...this is like traffic court and you either plead guilty or innocent. If you plead guilty - you get your points - if you plead innocent...you get a court date. Or at least thats what I suspect. We will have to see. Fred says the marines dont have the time or money for that... we will see. LOL. I would really like him to be right... but... i dont think so.

I will fill ya all in when we are done. :o)

Anonymous said...

Yea..Tina....found not guilty!!! How did it all play out??

Anonymous said...

Kathi...hope you find comfert being with your dad today :)

Kathi said...

I had to take two ativan last night after hearing what my sister said; so kind of tired this morning; I'm scared s***less as to what I'm gonna find when I get there/how the evening's gonna go

Anonymous said...

Aww Kathi...hope it goes well for you :)

Tina said...

Hey all... yes Brenda... NOT GUILTY!!! hahaha.

Traffic Court on Miramar is held in the THEATER for crissakes! If you just wanna take your points - you line up and the take you one at a time... if you want to contest - you are separated out and you have to talk to the Col.

So.. thats what we did. Cpl Stone didnt have to come... and the Colonel heard my side and said he would give me the benefit of the doubt - and said to slow down in my "hot rod". That was it. we were in and out by 9. Not NEARLY as excititng as I hoped... but... not guilty works for me. hahaa

Now im off to the doc... and then pick up kids and to the gym with Brenda!

Anonymous said...

glad to hear the details Tina...I'll remember that for future use while on base :) funny about the theater though...

Leighann is playing soccor again tonight, so we bloggers, may not see her here on the board....hope she has good stories to share tomorrow :)

Kathi said...

Well, got here at Dad's about 20 minutes ago (had to go to Kaiser and get a perscription I had called in, so came early); so far, so good; he just laid down to take a nap; I'll see if he brings anything up when he gets up/this eveing about what he said last night...I'm not counting on it though

Kathi said...

How's your mom, Leigh Ann? Hope you kicked butt at soccer

Leigh Ann said...

Good Evening All,
I had to get on here before I hit the showers and say hello...

We won our soccer game in sudden death PK's...it was incredible. We played the Marines. I was called off my the Ref and I wasn't even on the field. LOL! I let the guys have this one and rarely even subed in. It was rough but exciting!

Hopefully I will get to the tickers soon.

Leigh Ann said...

Kathi,
Mom is recovering from surgery and she is intubated (sp) now. I feel for you with your dad and all.

Brenda,
What a great visit you had with Ben.

Tina,
Glad you were innocent. LOL!

Stephanie,
Can't wait to be in your neck of the woods...as the saying goes:)

Tina said...

Well ladies. I did 340 calories at the gym with brenda! *there MUST be something wrong* so i thought i deserved a beer. HAHAHA

Fred has to work nights since he went to court with me cuz Cpl. Stone said he had to. Come to find out he didnt need to and so THAT makes me even madder at that stupid MP. I hope i see him again. ASSHOLE. I cant wait to tell him i was found NOT GUILTY. Jerk

LA - YAY on the soccer game!!! How many women do you play with? How many men? I am so glad you are getting to play again!!!

Well... shower then lunches for tomorrow...and i may warm something up for Fred when he gets home.

Night ladies! Marci ohhh Marci!!! we MISS YOU !! Hope you are feeling better!!!

Noboyz said...

Hey ladies... I am feeling alive again...
Gabrielle was victim # 3, and Madi victim # 4....
OOOOHHHH how I hope MB does not get it... he will be the worst patient... LOL a man sick??? oh no....

back to work and school tomorrow...
yeah!

Leigh Ann, what surgery did your mom have? I missed that....

Tina, so glad you are not guilty... and yes, he was def. a
Cpl. Asshole!!!!

Brenda, glad your visit with Ben was great, and yes he does sound like a sweetheart...

Hey Steph and Kathi...
Kathi, hoping your evening is going well...

will hit the bed early tonight...
tired, but not sleepy... :(

Kathi said...

Evening has gone well; I'm just finishing up the little bit of laundry there was, and then hittin the sheets myself; had chicken pot pies and a salad for dinner

Leigh Ann said...

MARCI,
YOU POOR THING!!! Glad you are feeling better.

Kathi,
Chicken pot pies - yum!!!

Tina,
There are two girls on the team, but she got hurt last night:(

Kathi said...

That sucks that she got hurt; was the surgery that your mom had today/tonight successful? what surgery was this? did you mention it before?

Kathi said...

I'm listening to the BL that my dad's watching.....I wanna go on that show SOOOOOOOOOOO bad

Kathi said...

he's watching it in the dining room and I'm in the office, which has a tv; but you I think I can lift my arm and change the channels, since the remote's sitting right in fron my of face.....NAH, NOT ME; lol

UGH!!!!!!!! GOD, I can't wait for this damn election to be over; so sick of all the commercials (not to mention all the robo-calls I've gotten)

Stephanie said...

I am ready for the election to be over, too. But, we haven't had many campaign commercials, and no robo-calls. Tennessee is a pretty hands down Repub, so I don't think they campaign very hard here.

I hate all of the stupid debates on the news, not between the candidates, which I like to listen to, but between everyone else with their speculations. Just a bunch of yelling and you can't understand a word. Dumb!

John and I did early voting, so we're done.

Stephanie said...

Ohhh, Tina. Don't screw with that MP. If you have my luck, he will find another reason to drag your butt back in. Be sweet! :)

Rock on at the gym, Tina and Brenda!

Marci, glad you are feeling better, girl!

I finally wrestled some antibiotics from my doctor, and I feel GREAT now. No more green snot or a red hot poker in my cranium. Imagine.

Leigh Ann, we are looking forward to tricker-treat here (as Ansley calls it!). She is going as a scary princess, she says. For the life of me, I cannot tell her from Snow White. :)

I am glad you had fun with the Marines. Are you coming in this weekend?

Stephanie said...

Oh yeah, Ansley did pumpkins with finger paints yesterday. It was adorable! Then she got out her sidewalk chalk and chalked the garage floor, then took in a piece and did the walls in the kitchen a bit. Thank goodness for semi-gloss. Bless her little heart, she means well. I am just happy it wasn't a Sharpie.

Tina said...

Morning Ladies... Happy Wednesday!

Anonymous said...

Hey all!! Marci so glad you and the family are feeling better :) Hope MB doesn't get it!!!! How awful!!

Leighann...was your mom's surgery the gallbladder?? Hope she's resting comfortably :) What a game you all had!!! WOW!!

Steph...That's really cute about your little scary princess LOL...I do miss those times when the girl's were little :( But I do have new ventures with this age they are at :) My latest with Allyson is watching 90210 together!! Ohh love that show!!

Tina...have fun at the volleyball game...hope the evening was good for you!! I picked up the plants again...LOL...not too much this time around...but they are going to be some fun ones to play with and share with Allyson's friend :D

Kathi...glad you had a good evening :) Have you thought about moving in with your dad?? Does he have a car you can drive?? HUGS!

Tina said...

Hey all!

Gonna be busy today...that tends to happen after im out a day. Jenna has one of her last 3 volleyball games today.

Both of my girls have decided AGAINST trying out for HS soccer... which makes me very very sad... Oh well... not much i can do about that. Jenna will continue with off season Volleyball. Tia, well, we will have to see.

Stephanie said...

Yes, Brenda, I am looking forward to doing more grown' up things with Ansley too, as she gets bigger. Right now, I am happy to talk to her about magic castles and butterflies. :)

Tina, I hope it's not too hairy at work today.

Anonymous said...

too sweet Steph :) do you kids like to make snowmen...or is it snowmans...LOL...or how bout snowkids LOL

Tina...Here's a HUG for you...I feel for you with the girl's not wanting to continue with soccor..

Kathi said...

So do I, Tina; from what I hear back when LA was here, they were just as awesome as the Wrather girls

Bren, we had talked about that..moving in with Dad; but I told them (my sibs) that, 1) I'd lose my housing, and 2) I don't think I can get ihss and give it at the same time...but that is something to check into (the ihss thing at least) and will today

Anonymous said...

Hope you hear good news Kathi today when you call them :)

Stephanie said...

Ah, I lost my post!!!

I was just telling Brenda, we would love to do snowmen, but it hardly ever snows here anymore. It used to a lot more when I was a child, but not so much now.

It's 2 days until November, and my grass is still growing like crazy. This weekend, it is supposed to be in the 70s.

Anonymous said...

Awwww maybe mini snowmen...that's too bad the snows went away :(

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOVEMBER!!! Not finacially ready!!!!!!! LOL

Stephanie said...

Oh, do not even go there, Brenda!

Kathi said...

Alright, quiet girls (kidding, of course); I'm not ready to face our first holiday w/o Mom, so the slower it comes the better; but I sure as hell know that my niece is ready for her Sweet 16th in three weeks (from Tuesday)

Kathi said...

My little cousin, who lost her grandma (my aunt) just had her 16th a few days ago (yeah, my niece and her are only a month apart)

Kathi said...

Tina, any word on the bitch who's dog got "our" Fred?

Noboyz said...

Hey ladies...
had a rough day today... back at work... ugh!!!!!!!!!!

reading the posts.. laughing about the snowmans vrs.s snowmen... LOL

Tina, I can't believe the girls won't play SOCCER.. OMG... they have too... !!!!! that's what I call everything they doooooo!!

Brenda, yes, different ages is different tricks and treats!!!

Steph, precious about Ainsley..
a scary little princess!!

Kathi, good luck...

Leigh,nice having email conversations today.....

on another note... please keep Mylee in your thoughts and prayers.. she went to an eye specialist today, her right eye flickers back and forth sometimes... anyways... he poked and pried and wants to do a CT scan and MRI next week to see if anything is restricting the optical nerve b/c it is a smaller nerve than the left eye...
so we worry.....
KK called me balistic today... I was supposed to go with her, and b/c I missed Monday and Tuesday I couldn't.. I felt like shit when I got the call.. will go next week no questions asked....

I am writing a new book....

"the trials and tribulations of the nutcase Marci's thing we call LIFE"

Kathi said...

I'll be your co-author, Marci... I'll for sure keep Mylee in my prayers;

Going through our own trials and tribs here, too, with Dad; ABSOULTELY (oops, little spelling error) REFUSED to take a shower tonight...fighting with the nurse the whole time; my sis had to give "tough love" and basically say to him that he's gonna force our hand and have him put in a home (and that's under the doctor's instructions) if he continues to refuse and fight; I think he's pretty much down his last few chances....so, guess where I'm going again tomorrow!? I'm getting sick of this back and forth crap though, so I'm not coming back home till Saturday, but you can be damn sure I'll be on here more in the next two days than I ever have (if I need to vent, which I probably will)... while praying for Mylee, could you also squeeze in some for us and my dad?

Tina said...

Prayers for Mylee and Kathi... for sure

Having a quick beer and going to bed... Jenna's team WON tonight!!! It was the greatest game! We got our asses kicked 25 to 9 first game... came back and beat them 25 to 21 2nd game and then... in the tiebreaker...beat them 16 to 14!!!

Anonymous said...

Woohoo Jenna!!

Marci...will keep Mylee in my prayers :) I feel for you having to hear your baby (KK) needing you and you couldn't...gosh life can be so rough :( as a mom!! Hang in there!!

Kathi...will keep you and your dad in my prayers too :) So sorry to hear about the upset!!

Anonymous said...

Hi everyone....It's Thursday...we can see the weekend from here!!

How cold was it this morning back east??? I've been hearing it's been pretty frigid~ brrrr cold here too...cold for us, anyway

Noboyz said...

Good morning ladies...
Kathi, that is so tough... prayers coming your way..

Tina, awesome about the games and coming back to victory!!!!!!
GO JENNA!!!!!!!!!

Brenda, I have never felt so horrible as MY baby crying and I wasn't there...
damn.... life is rough

Stephanie said...

Brenda, it was COLD here this morning (28 degrees). We have some frost, but later today it is supposed to be 70. That's how it is, in Tennessee.

Anonymous said...

Hey Marci...Awww darnit!! After you talked to her about it...did she understand??? How's she doing today about Mylee?? Is she the wait and see type or the worrier type? (me...worrier LOL, my husband..wait and see type)

Steph...Brrrr that's such a huge temp range for one day LOL..We have had this heat wave the last week..It's so very hard to stay motivated to walk in it..UGH!! Starting to cool down now...What is the weather usually like in Smyrna around New Years...that's when Steve and I will be there :)

Anonymous said...

LMAO...Tina hasn't been on yet this AM...guess she stayed out too late last night :) She was out shopping WAY past her bedtime LOL

Tina said...

Morning Ladies!

Very funny Brenda... LOL. I am a wimpy woman who MUST get her 8 hours or becomes obnoxiously grumpy. hehehe.

Very busy around here today... *sigh* and I really wanted to stay in bed last night...

Tina said...

I MEANT... "really wanted to stay in bed THIS MORNING" see... sleepy... hahaa

Noboyz said...

Brenda, maybe it will snow while you and Steve are in Tennessee...
it's been really cold here at night in the 30's and beautiful sunshine and the 70's during the day...gorgeous days!!!!!
snuggly nights!

too funny Tina... I'm a grump ass too when I don't get my sleep.... :(

Anonymous said...

LOL oh Tina...you crack me up!!! :) I'm for SURE going to get 8 hours on Sunday night because we turn the clocks back one hour...and I want to be fully rested when that alarm goes off Monday and hour early

Hey Marci...I would love to see snow while we're there over the New years holiday...tht would be COOL...that's nice you guys have left the season of high humidity :)

Noboyz said...

is it still hot in CA? are is it also bearable now?

The girls want to drive this year until we meet snow! I think it sounds fun.... will probably leave late one Friday evening and drive for the weekend... to catch snow on our tongues and make angel wings!

Tina said...

SNOW...ick or should I say:

S -lippery

N -asty

O -h how cold

W -hite shit

ITS why i live in Southern California

Noboyz said...

LOL

Kathi said...

I would do anything and everything I can to be in snow (another reason I hate that we're not going to Chicago next month; a missed possible opportunity)

Oh please, God, please give me the strength to do the next two days; very tired today..must get some caffeine in me

Anonymous said...

hang in there Kathi!!

I love to visit the snow :) but I couldn't live in it though...just because of the cold and the mess when it's slushy...we've have gone to the mountains here and in Colorado to ski and play and that was FUN

Marci...your trip sounds really cool!!! Tina...is snow no a part of glamping? (glamour camping)

Tina said...

Snow is no part of ANYTHING that will last more than a couple of hours.

I will drive up to visit snow... for a MOMENT.... and then leave.

So.. no... Glamping could NOT include snow. LOL

Noboyz said...

I hate the cold wet nasty weather too, definitely couldn't live in it... but a weekend 2 day visit... yes I can subject myself to that... as long as a hot tub and a cold beer is in the picture... and snuggling.... :)

Tina said...

Good for you! I
m a big freaking baby... and I hate being cold and wet more than I hate being hot. LOL

Anonymous said...

LOL!!!!!!!!!! I love the hot tub and beer part...it takes away all the icky parts of winter :D

Noboyz said...

fixing to leave work!
yeah!!!!!
we have a fall festival for Madison tonight at her Horse Therapy Barn.. they dress the horses in costumes and the horses give out candy.. they will have a blast...

Leigh Ann said...

Hi all...had a very busy day! Gave my first brief for the new CO and it went great. I am packing up - I leave tomorrow!

Marci,
Praying for my baby - and KK - and you! What incredible women you all are!

And you too, Kathi - stepping up to the plate and taking care of your dad.

Tina, great game it sounds like and I have to get my sleep, too!

Stephanie, that is SO SWEET about Ansley...what a sweetie!

Brenda,
No hot tub...but I will have beer! LOL!!!

Kathi said...

I don't think I could live in snow, either; my parents are both from Chicago; that's the main reason they left...SICK OF SNOW and the cold; my dad left in '58 and my mom left right after they got married

At my dad's now; not too bad so far; we'll see how tomorrow morning goes...nurse comes to shower him again

Anonymous said...

Hey all!! Leighann...take care on the drive!! WTG on the brief with the CO ;D

Marci...I love what you all are doing tonight!!! Sounds like soooo much fun!!!

Kathi...glad things are quiet tonight

Tina said...

Hey all...

Noboyz said...

Kathi, I do feel for you... taking care of your dad....

Tina, LOVED YOUR picture on your blog....
I am smothering..... too funny!!!

FYI Mylee's MRI is scheduled for Monday morning at 9:30... we have pre op at 8:30.... they will sedate her....

Kathi said...

I'm sure you know this, Marci, but tell KK that that's absolutely a normal thing to do with an infant (sedating before a "procedure") and that she'll be fine; tell her that they sedate because they don't her to move at all (and knowing that babies have perpetual motion...); BTW, she's six months old now, huh? Happy half birthday, Mylee

Leigh Ann said...

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

At work for a little bit, but I hope to be on the road in the next hour or so...

Noboyz said...

Kathi,
KK knew this from the get go, as she is planning on becoming a Nurse Anestheitist (spelling)..
she will be fine..... just nervous as a parent..

good morning ladies....

Anonymous said...

Hey all!! Marci...what an awesome career path KK has choosen :D I bet she's nervous...that's her baby :)

Hey Kathi...You have been through so many hospital procedures...I can't imagine all the things you have experienced...My mom goes in monthly to have her porta cath flushed and sometimes there is a new nurse in the infusion lab and my mom has to talk them through how to do it LOL...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see the pics of all the kiddies and adults in costume!!!!!!!!!

Leigh Ann said...

YAH!!!

I lost 2 pounds:D

Now, the real challenge will be NOT to gain in back while I am on leave.

Heading out to gas up and hit the road!

Tina said...

Happy Halloween and Friday everyone!!!

Be safe Leighann!!

Brenda - no costume at work. Jenna was really mad about it... so here i am in my blinky shirt. LOL

Noboyz said...

No costumes here either...

and not dressing tonight... have to cook while the kiddos are trick or treating!!!

Kathi, I am with Brenda, I am sure you could get a job in the medical field!


Be safe on the road Leigh Ann...

Anonymous said...

Tina...why was Jenna mad that you were going to wear a costume to work??

Hey Marci!! what's for dinner!!!?? I love trick or treaters :)

WTG!!!!!! Leighann!!!! WOOHOO!!! clap clap clap...you earned that 2 pound loss :D Have fun!!

I'm in my lounge wear LOL at work...or dept theme is us wearing work at home clothes (PJs) LOL...This is SOOO fun!!

Tina said...

It wasnt that i was wearing it to work... it was because I would have had to show up at the game in it.

And that was just more than she could stand!! LOL

Noboyz said...

too funny Tina.. amazing you would even attempt to embarrass a teenager... shame on you.... LOL

Brenda that sounds like fun, working in pjs!!!

Clap Clap Leigh Ann!!!!
way to go...

Bren, I am cooking my famous chili, hotdogs, frito pies... etc...

Too bad Tina...you could have brought a change of clothes and some wet wipes for the makeup :( You were really funny in your gitty up LOL...Steve's shirt didn't fit him :(

Noboyz said...

Kathi said...

That sounds delicious, Marci;

WE HAVE SUCCESS!! Dad took a shower this morning, so it's pizza for dinner tonight as a reward

Kathi said...

And I actually have thought about going into the medical field b/c I know so much

How'd the MRI go, Marci?

Tina said...

Kathi, Mylees MRI is monday - per Marci's earlier post.

Brenda - OH NO!!! What will we do about Steves Shirt???

Tina said...

OOPS... hit send too early...

LeighAnn -WAY TO GO on the 2 lbs! You rock!!

Marci - if you fed ex food to Brenda - you have to make her share with ME!!! LOL

We just had our Boo Nibbler at work :) we go to the different depts and nibble on foods they brought :D

Noboyz said...

Tina, you know I would put an extra "weinie" in their for you!!! :) LOL

Kathi, that's great on the walking... proud of you!

Well I love the Boo Nibbler idea... that's precious!

I have 2 hours left.... hooray!!!!!!

Kathi said...

That sounds fun, Bren; I'm here at Dad's debating on what I want to do...go to Albertson's for some envelopes to address to my dad, so my nieces and nephew could mail him letters, pictures, etc., or take a nap (nap is winning out right now)

Tina said...

Ohhhh its been a longggg day. Im leaving shortly (around 2:30 or so) to go to Jennas volley ball game. She better win - since i didnt wear my costume. LOL

I am gonna hafta get a coffee after work... I woke up at 4 and if our evening doesnt really start till 8:00 tonight... im gonna be sucking wind!! LOL

Kathi said...

I don't really have a choice in the walking...have to catch buses and walk to my dad's from the bus stop; and then once I get here, I do things around here that keep me busy, like take out the trash, sweep, etc.

Kathi said...

LOL, Tina.. how's Fred's leg doing?

Tina said...

It still looks really icky Kathi... I plan to take some more pictures on Saturday orSunday and post... as that will be about a week.

Well Kathi...good things come out of not so good things...I'm glad you're health as far as the walking, is on your side :D Happy napping!!

Oh Tina...Yes, the night will be starting late LOL....I NEED to get home at a decent time to childproof the front of the house..kids trip on the steps walking up to the house if I don't put lights out...then I have to trim a couple plants that are sticking out...then move some potted plants by the door LOL....I should be home by 5:30 to do all of this!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope the team wins!!!!!!!

Marci...happy night tonight :)

Kathi said...

Ok, Tina; have you heard anything from/about that lady and her dog? I just pray that another person, especially a child, doesn't come into contact with the dog...

I didn't actually take a nap, Bren; I went to Albertson's and got the envelopes (go, me)

Kathi said...

Ordering the pizza in about an hour, since it's a HUGE pizza night (hopefully it won't take three hours to have 'em deliver it)

And Bren, about one of your earlier posts, no, there is no car here or one I can borrow (sure would make life a lot simpler, though); have to rent one and I don't have the money right now

Speaking of money, I think we're all set as far as knowing how much I'll be getting each month (THANK YOU, JESUS); but the bummer part is we still won't be able to go to Chicago :(

Leigh Ann said...

Hey, I made frito pies, too! It's a tradition every halloween...

Made it home with no problem... just tired. Had a blast tonight with all of the neighborhood kids -I think we started with about 15! They just finished a hayride. It's not even nine and I am going to have to crash:)

Kathi said...

Poor LA; but glad you guys had fun; can't wait to see pictures. FRITO PIES????????? Are they just how they sound...pies made from Fritos chips? That sounds good, actually; ya'll better Fed Ex some to me, too! I just might have to wrestle Tina and Bren for some of theirs

Noboyz said...

I am whooped as well.....
we had about 25 people here tonight...
the last ones left around 10ish....
the kids are sleeping.... KK went out when some friends, but i told her she is coming home tonight...
I have to go to the jewelry store tomorrow and find her a necklace for Sunday for her Confirmation...
we bought Sam a diamond cross in white gold... so I have to find something comparable....
money money money.... damn!!!!!!!

Kathi said...

Isn't Sunday "All Souls Day" or something like that? I thought that the first and second of Nov. were All Saints and All Souls days...but maybe not; Marci, who is her sponsor? My sister was mine on my Confirmation (and again girls, Confirmation is where you confirm that you will stay in the Catholic faith; and raise any offspring in the Church as well)

Leigh Ann said...

Hi!!!

I am a single parent today:) Geez, I sure do LOVE my husband, I have no idea how he does this day in and day out.

Getting Marlane and Dailen ready to play soccer at 1130...straightened Mackenzie's hair and dropped off her sleepover friend. Ran Rayna to soccer tryouts for club...made hair appts for her and I at four:)

Gosh it's good to be home:D

Leigh Ann said...

Marci,
Sounds like you guys had a full house...

and Kathi what you do is take a bowl and place a handfull of fritos in the bottom, cover it with chili and top with your favorites...cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, etc!

Kathi said...

YUM!!!!

Ok, so yesterday, I completely lost it and almost yelled at Dad..b/c there's no emtional attachment to Mom's death, he thought that since she's gone and obvisouly won't be needing them, he would shred all of her birthday cards...that was WAY TOO MUCH for me, so I called my sis in tears (and right before I yelled, so it was a good thing I called); I know there's gonna come a day when we do have to get rid of everything of hers, but that was just too soon.

Tina said...

Morning ladies!! Have a great weekend. LeighAnn... Im up a 1/2 pound. DAMN HALLOWEEN CANDY!!!

Anonymous said...

Kathi said...

Congrats, Brenda! Go, you; hey, can you take me to the store tomorrow? My stupid housekeeper forgot to get me my milk yesterday while I was at Dad's; I was gonna have a bowl of cereal today and realized I didn't have milk :(

Noboyz said...
