Thank you, sweetie Vi.

Love it!!! How can we get prints??

Love, Love, LOVE the pics, Tracy!! Thanks for posting them so quickly!! Day-um, we look GOOD! My MIL just looked at them & she said she can tell that we were having a good time!!! She's right! Still in my pj's... gotta get going & greet reality... drat it all.

Lola VaVoom... Ms. May... ready for for her Grand Slam!

Good Morning, Vi's!~~ I'm home. Uneventful flight, which is always good! When Kat & I parted ways @ the airport yesterday, she said that Rick or Amanda would call one of us randomly (we're programmed into her phone) & that that person could spread the word to the rest of us... PURPLE POWER TO YOU KAT!!! I think what Ms. Doodle was trying to say w/her face-first into the oatmeal comment was: "Raise your hand if you're tired this morning!!" :thumbup: Answer: ME! ME! I third what Pam said... we're an amazingly diverse group of women... I am so lucky to have each of you in my life!! Smooches!!

It's 4:17am: On my way out the door!! See you all soon!

4:17am: Am on my way out the door!!! SEE YOU IN A BIT!!

Judy's so little now, maybe she can just climb up into the overhead compartment WITH her bag! Or, maybe we should put a bow on HER so we can identify her!! OK, I'm just getting GIDDY now!!! :biggrin::biggrin: :biggrin::eek::biggrin::frown::biggrin::eek::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Laura, I expected you to have a really southern drawl, but you don't! This IS going to be funny... putting voices & faces & mannerisms (I gesture w/my hands ALL THE TIME while I talk) together!!

I *think* I'm ready. Phew! Oh wait. Nope. Have to change the cat litter box. + still have 1 load of laundry in the washer -- but I just made $6!! The rule is: any money in the washer/dryer is MINE!! :biggrin: Figure my ds just bought me a 'rita! + did I tell you all that I'm the 8th grade band concert concession coordinator for tonight? Yep. As if I didn't have ENOUGH going on!! My IL's should be here in about an hour... But other than that... house is clean, clothes are laid out on my bed to pack... CAN IT BE??? It's almost time!! Laura, I have to get up @ 3:30AM to leave by 4:30AM for the airport! So we're not alone!!

I think I'm wearing a denim skirt, white T, white bobbie sox & white keds... so if you see the PTA Mom, it's me!!

GET PSYCHED, LADIES!! IT'S HERE!! IT'S FINALLY HERE!! Anyone else feel like a kid on Christmas eve??

Did you all see that??? 1 MORE DAY!!! 1!! Just 1!!! That is just so ding-danged WONDERFUL!!! 1!! 1!! 1!!

Jane!! How frightening!! We all obviously NEED this weekend AWAY!!! I finished my proofreading, have most of the house cleaned (will do the rest in the a.m.), went grocery shopping (@ 2 stores, no less), did laundry... and am now bushed and am going to bed!! My eyes are fine!! Yay!! The better for me to SEE YOU WITH!!:party:

That is soooooo funny!!

OK, I'm on a roll now!! I just spoke to Laura!! :biggrin2: This is going to be so much fun!!

I just talked with TracyK!! :biggrin2: I have a funny feeling that we could've chatted the day away!! and I have another funny feeling that we WILL chat the days AND nights away this weekend... I predict nonstop chatter for all of us!! I can't wait!!

((Laura)) I completely understand... my 2 cats have ruined part of my upstairs hallway because they'll go there if their box isn't 100% scooped at any given moment... and altho I do my best (at least 2x/day), sometimes... My dh HATES them and has said that once they're gone, that's it! No more cats. I work so hard to keep that area clean & washed, but it's hard. I'm so sorry for you.

The weather looks GORGEOUS, Dahling, simply GORGEOUS!

Janie... Did you sleep?????

Good Weds Morn, Vi's~~ The day after tomorrow I'll see you all!!! I can't believe it!! TOM arrived yesterday w/a vengeance... grrrrr... hoping the worst is over by Fri... I've procrastinated, too... today is going to be a DOOZY if I can pull it off! TONS to do... actual paying work to finish (there's a concept!); house to clean before my in-laws arrive; meals to cook; clothes to wash & pack; groceries to buy; etc. & so forth. I want to have just about EVERYTHING done by the time I lay my head on my pillow TONIGHT! Because tomorrow I have just the a.m., and then the il's arrive and then I'm in charge of the concert concessions, etc., tomorrow eve... then it's bed & time's up!! :tongue2: But it is going to be soooooooo worth it when I lazin' down the river in my big ol' toob w/the sun shining down, the birds singing, and my VIOLETS by my side!!!!!!!

No, really, I think it's just allergies. No one else has the slightest eye itch or anything. I'll look for those drops, Kat! Thanks!

I just called Laura!!... But all I got was her voice mail... :thumbup: But her voice was cute!... :thumbup: But I had to leave a message... :thumbup: But now she'll know that I was thinking about her this a.m. & I can't wait to meet her! :thumbup:

Ok, so I am a bad Violet & didn't call the doc yesterday, decided to take a "wait & see" approach... I did take an allergy pill last night &, altho my eyes are still so, so itchy, they aren't red or gunky like yesterday morn... so I'm thinking it's allergies... Another busy day... make it a great one, Vi's!!

For me, mostly water & the green tea I wrote on the list. + because it's a special weekend, 'ritas & the cranberry & vodka.
