How fun, Bren; if you're gonna gamble, WIN BIG...and have a great time
YUCK...humidity; Chicago has humidity like that, and when we were there six years ago for a family reunion, I had a HELL of a time with my asthma because of it...if I didn't bring my nebulizer, we'd be making a trip or two to the ER
Bren, are you available Tuesday or Wednesday? I'd like to take you and Tina out for margaritas - I need one, and I know Tina probably needs one..not sure about you
Tina, I'll say a prayer for the four of you - that you get through Zach's absence - but especially Zach that he arrives safely to TX, gets through boot with flying colors and gets stationed "close" to home
Stopping by to say hello....did some wlaking here at work and it is HOT HOT HOT ..so glad to get inside with the AC at work...back to the grind at work now...toodles
Sure, I think next week'll work; Tina, are you available next week?
I'm kind of bummed today...I'm losing my neighbor upstairs; she's going into the Corps and leaves tomorrow, but she's packing up her place now and I guess driving her stuff up to her parents' in Victorville (near Apple Valley); she's been here for about a year, and was great when my mom died..
Bren, I know you said you're swamped this week, but do you think you can squeeze in a store run on Friday evening? I've gotta get some cookies for our family reunion that's on Saturday up in the L.A. area - or maybe if it's easier, you can get 'em on your outs and abouts (chocolate chip preferably, but anything would be ok; and a big tray if there is one..there's gonna be about 30 people there)
How about I pick them up for you Weds ..is that too early?? Won't be able to anyother time Kathi...the reunion sounds like fun!! Let me know and then we can kinda go from there
Those cookies aren't freshly made everyday, are they? If they are, I think that is too soon...but I don't know; what I'm mostly afraid of is ME getting into them before Saturday...lol
Hey everyone... thanks for the well wishes. Gonna take a mental health day from work today. Get some much needed sleep... try to shake this headache and take the girls for pedi's.
Take care Tina...enjoy time with the girls...much needed, for sure
OMG Leighann...running in formation..I'm sure I would cry the whole time LOL....it's like you are reliving bootcamp LOL...WTG on doing this kinda stuff ..
LOL...Ok Kathi...I won't do the cookies Weds...I'm not able to do it any other time though, ok cookie monster LOL
Marci...Good chatting with you on the facebook chat last night LOL..my computer is starting to be easier on me as the chat feature is running...I didn't lock up last night from it LOL
Hey Leighann..it just donned on me as I am squinting on the computer monitor...did you ever get to the eye doc for your reading glasses?? I'm feeling the need to go myself...I have cheapies I wear for reading..but it's not helping with the computer..I'm not sitting close enough due to the desk...keyboard etc...
Hey ladies... Zach called about an hour ago. Hasnt left San Diego MEPS office yet. He is tired - and sounded tired. He has no idea when he will be leaving. Poor thing... momma is sad for him.
Flights all delayed due to weather. Boys are on their way back to the hotel. Fred or Tina will go get him so he can hang out. Then we will take him back before 10 tonight. Have to say goodbye all over again... *sigh* BUT i get to hug my bubba again!!
Oh good, Tina; glad you get to see Zach again...he accepted me as a friend on facebook (I sent him a message, like LA suggested); be strong this time when you have to say goodbye again
Hey all...What you guys went thru with Zach's stall is what Katie went through with Roger and the Marines...she said good bye to him and then after he left, they sent him back home because the beds were full...go figure...Hope this AM Zach is well on his way..sigh
Hey Leighann...Gosh hope the glasses get in quick...I wear the cheapies to read and it's great..WOW..wonderful LOL...we arent' getting older...just parts of the body are LMAO..the rest of your week sounds really COOL :) Not the being away from the family though..hope it goes quick for you
Hey Kathi..ok on the cookies...if you change your mind and want them today, let me know early enough before I get home for the night
Hey Marci...how goes it :) Miss chatting away with you
Mr and Mrs Storey, hereby, cordially invite, Mr and Mrs Koch, to the Storey compound this Saturday at 5pm ( I would say earlier but I have an engagement with the Storey piggies...Fatty Patti and Scary Vinney)
You will be enjoying cold beverages in the patio....and then commence, to dining, in the main dining room...followed by desert..in the living room
This in honor, of our proudly serving recruit Zach Koch..
Please contact Brenda Storey for any agenda items left out, for she has spent 4 1/2 hours outside in her garden...
Brenda, The invite was too cute:) And, yes, we had sales lab yesterday and today we take our written exam...no glasses yet, they said they will mail them to me.
Tina, Glad Zach made it safely. Have fun at the Storeys:)
Marci, How are you?
I am going to go ahead and pack up my laptop...will post again from home:)
OMG ...must go to check it out!!! Tina..hope you're day is good
you too Marci, Leighann and Kathi
BTW...Leighann..I really have been enjoying those quotes up top made by women..I like to take alittle time with each one and think about them :) very nice~
Went out with Katie yesterday...her son is in Marine bootcamp here in San Diego....she rcvd her first letter from Roger...he's having the time of his life...he loves it...he said you get to work out, eat alot and learn alot...and all the emotional stuff...he figured out...it's a job :) Prayers for that guy and all of them too
LeighAnn I agree with Brenda! Love the quotes at the top! The can be very inspirational! I am glad school is over and as always I am sure you KICKED ASS!! You are one smart lady!! Betcha Paul and the kids will be so glad to get you back home where they can love on ya!!
Brenda I am so glad to hear that Roger is having fun and glad that Katie's letter helped make her more comfy. I am hoping Zach will get the chance to write soon.
Marci - Girl you are SO busy!! Coordinating a reunion and trying to find people... thats a lot of work. I can only imagine!! Love chit chatting with you on Facebook!
Kathi - you must be busy... hope you are able to stay on top of the house work... keeping up with it is half the battle!
Tia, Jenna and I all wrote letters for zach. Both my sisters also wrote... and I know Tina was writing... so... he will be getting lots of mail soon...
I just got home myself and read all the directions for the meal tomorrow night LOL...made Steve alittle grocery list...and we are ready for some fun in the kitchen tomorrow :)
Nope... got beat. they combined B and C leagues again. We played the really good team... 9 to 5. Could have been worse. We sure missed zach and rima. WOW.
Im tired. BRENDA!!!! Let me bring something other than just a salad~
Welll all... gonna finish my beer, check my Facebook and crash. Love to all!!
Yes, Tina, I have been keeping on top of my house so it's not so overwhelming, and if I do say so my damn self, it looks pretty good :)
That's about the only busy work I've been doin...just too damn lazy to get on the computer - giving my hands a rest (and my eyes...think they're startin to go since being on this thing so much)
In just 10 hours (and if my sister "approves" my house), she's picking me up and we're going to my bro's in OC, and then we're all piling in the van and then headin up to L.A. for a family picnic...but before we go there, we're gonna stop and see my dad's first cousin, who's in the hospital after breaking his femur (thigh bone, for those who don't know what a femur is)...can anyone say OUCH?!
Hi Bren...got the cookies today; sorry I was so OCD about when to pick 'em up

Tina, Glad you got another hug in, can't imagine what your going through.
Marci, the Seal was not there, LOL! But, I am still too old for that s%^&!
Kathi, hope your having a great week.
