Oh great.. we're back to TracyK's white legs in here again!! Jenn... you'll always be a part of the crew! All it takes is a post here every once in awhile. We know you're busy and worried. We're always here and appreciate it whenever you can leave us a message. Hope you get good news on the job that you want. Jane.. water pills are wonderful. I take one 2x a week. I used to take one every day, but found I don't need them that much anymore. Bob has left me........... just til Saturday! I'm going to go out shopping as soon as Ethan goes home. Haven't been out and about by myself just to browse in ages. Gotta get some Alabama clothes! Hope everyone is having a good day.

Uh oh... share the tequilla??? I'm outta da club.:thumbsup: Ethan is here and it's raining so it's a dreay day and instead of working outside like I planned, I'll be inside all day doing laundry and general cleaning. Bob leaves at 2 and Ethan at 4 and then it's just me until late Saturday night. I have a Lap Band support group meeting at 10 Saturday morning and then some hospital screening tests at 11:45. Then a mother's day gig to sing at in the evening. So even though I'll be by myself, I'll still be busy. I'm hoping for good weather tomorrow. Ethan goes to day care and I want to ride my trike. If not, I'll go to Kris's and get my Grady fix for the week. Off to tackle laundry. Everyone have a great day!

Good evening, Violets.. I sure felt much better today. I had a two hour flute rehearsal and then Ethan arrived. His dad picked him up about an hour after he got here so I had all afternoon to myself. Bob and I went in and sorted out the choir robes and got them all organized. Now if I can just get them to put their robes back in the right place, we'll be in business. Rehearsal tonight was excellent. Only a few more weeks of choir and then I'm off for the summer. Tomorrow Ethan is here 8-4 and Bob leaves for out of town at 2 until Saturday evening. Wonder if I'll get anything done while I'm on my own. Jane..thanks for the article about Pasties. Bob's grandpa was a miner in the U.P. and took pasties into the mine with him for his lunch, so they are a re and Pamela..kudos to you on the exercise!! Suzie.. we're on the list to have our pool open soon. The hot tub coded again. They have to call the manufacturer cause they've never had this problem before that they couldn't fix. Great. Off to watch CSI:NY and then bed. Everyone have a great night. sleep well

Exactly what my DSIL, the P.A. said.

Good morning, Violets.. I'm feeling better this morning. Guess my body was worn out from the weekend. I slept til 7 this morning. I'm off to flute rehearsal and then Ethan comes at noon for the day. Choir rehearsal tonight. I'll be glad for Thursday when I have no rehearsals or meetings. Everyone have a great day. Will catch up with all the posts later.

Good evening,Violets.. Not feeling good today. I did my hospital shift and then came home and slept from 12-4:30 I just finished rehearsal and am heading to bed again. Sure hope I feel better tomorrow. I took a seasick pill so I wouldn't throw up. It worked... so far.

Good evening, Violets.. Had a good day with Ethan. We went outside and raked and played with the yorkies. I had to watch for eagles and hawks though. Didn't want the little dogs to get snatched up. It's the first time the yorkies have been out in months and they were enjoying it as was I. Tomorrow is hospital shift and then I have to go to the church sometime in the afternoon to sort out choir robes and get them in some kind of order. Seems that Sunday there were people who couldn't find their robes.. sheesh. Laura.. you look great!!! Certainly not like someone who just gave birth almost a month ago. Grady turned 2 months old Sunday. He laughs now and looks all around and sure loves his mommy and daddy. Gramma is working on him. In a month I'll start babysitting him. Ethan will be at day care on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I only will have one to babysit at a time. That makes this old Gramma happy. Jane.. I'm PROUD of you. The stars are a great idea as long as you can trade them in for special things for YOU. TracyK..your attitude is great again too. Posting another before pic is a big step on the right path. I was looking forward to being in the hot tub tonight, but the code was back even after they have been out twice to fix it. They are supposed to come back tomorrow to see what the problem is and why it isn't fixed yet. I gotta tell you, I felt so good at the water park. There were many ladies who were much heavier than I walking around in their tight swimsuits. I never could do that when I was heavier. Now I strut my stuff and enjoy the water instead of sitting on the sidelines all covered up. I hope to get some triking in tomorrow if the weather continues to be nice. I have a rehearsal in the evening. Busy as usual. Hope everyone has a great evening. Sleep well.

Me too.. It's worth it to me not to have to drive.

Good Morning, Violets.. Had a great day yesterday.. 6 hours of driving and then we got to see Jami get pinned by Kris. We went out to eat at Chili's and then relaxed the rest of the evening. Today the guys are going golfing and the gals are going shopping. Grady slept from 10:30 - 8 this morning. He's been really good. We are at a hotel with a water park so the grandkids are coming over this afternoon and we'll be swimming most of the evening. Will check in later. Everyone have a great day!! Be good to yourself.

I looked, but I don't think they spelled TIGERS correctly. :tongue2:

Good afternoon, Violets.. Ethan and Grady are here and I'm wondering how I ever did it raising 4 kids!! Grady is finally asleep after having 6 ounces of formula. Ethan is helping me eat my ham salad and soy nuts with mandarin oranges on the side. Kris is at the hairdresser. Bob has been at meetings so it's just been me here. He finally got home and I finally got to go to the bathroom. Note to self... don't take a water pill when you know you'll have two grandsons to babysit at the same time. I have a hair appointment at 4:30 and then will hit Walmart for a few things before I get home and start packing for the weekend. Bob will be gone for dinner today. In my pre-band life that would be the signal to go out and buy whatever I wanted for supper. Now I'm trying to think what is left over that I might want. Nothing sounds good now and I don't want to go out and buy anything. Half of it would go to waste. Hope you get some relief for your back, PamELa. Bob is looking like an old man lately, bent over from back pain. Nathan says it's his sciatic nerve.

Me either. My mom was the pie maker. But I tried this dough recipe for the first time this week and it worked fine. It's Paula Deen's pie crust recipe.
