Happy Happy Birthday Michelle....after seeing Pamela's adorable card, I vote for margies!!!! <like I get a vote>...lol, have a great relaxing day!!!

Janie, thanks for the offer of sending me pretzel m&m's...I'll keep looking here...like I said, it's probably just as well I haven't seen them...but thanks for offering, that's really sweet...nothing much on docket today, hubby is out trimming bushes,,,,daughter is still in Michigan with the BF...Judy, have you ever heard of Harsen's Island??? I guess it is north? of Detroit?? They will be home late tonight...going to Arby's for a free sammich...then if no rain maybe do brats on the grill...Have a great birthday Heather..

has any body found pretzel M&M's???? I see coupons and commercials, but have not seen the little buggers:drool:...prolly just as well....Hope you all are having a relaxing 4th...we went to church, breakfast, grocery store-watched movies, grilled hamburgers, now watching NYC fireworks...pretty cool...no crowds, no bugs,our town isn't doing a display anymore...sooo...this works!!! Enjoy the rest of the weekend....Happy Birthday USA!!!

Judy, saw your garden pics on FB...just beautiful....

Happy Birthday Judy and happy anniversary, Delo... I have to admit the Housewives are my guilty pleasure,,,I think I like NY way more than NJ and way more than ATL...OC is ok, they are probably the tamest...just vegging today...have a mini headache...on and off the last couple days...probably humidity/sinus...crazy storms last few days as well...supposed to go see Fabian Sat. night with my girlfriend...she gets all these freebies all the time from the various casinos....just watching "kids" (amc)...hope everybody is having a great day!!!

Those are cool, Laura...I wonder if they are true...I remember trying the Drano one when PG with DD...don't remember if it was true...it stunk, I remember that much....and I remember tieing/swinginging a needle over bellies ..... Judy, when is your surgery???

Pamela, you mean you go back to school/aka work next Monday??? Yikes....jusst came back from DD's Dr. appt and she got released to go back to work tomorrow...yea!!!!nothing much else on tap....think I will join in the nap hubby and Jen are taking.....:thumbup:

Hey Judy, just saw ALPENA on our weather forecast map....think meaning there's stormspredicted for Ill WI, MN, IN MI for the next few days,,,,

Nice picture, Pamela...and Haydee, the wedding pics were just beautiful....Judy's too...had a pretty food filled day...DH grilled some steaks for lunch, then had some Italian beef for dinner and then Dairy queen....I had a turtle sundae...and not guilty in the least...went up to see my cousin yesterday and he is doing fan-tan-damn-tabulous....really great-he should be home Thursday!!! Hope the storms are done for a while we had 2 doozies on Friday...have a great week everybody!!!

I am here too...home from hospital, DD's surgery went well, all the hardware is out...she is home and resting comfortably..just watching the replay of our CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS STANLEY CUP PARADE AND RALLY!!!!!

Not much going on here either...daughter is having surgery tomorrow, minor, she has a screw in her ankle from a break 2 yrs ago....it is causing inflammation and possibly infection so its coming out, hopefully not a big deal recovery wise...she's a nurse, so ankles, feet legs, etc, need to work well. Still nothing happening on the job front...grrr...supposed to go to a bra fitting and skinny cow sampling in Chicago on Saturday and a baseball game with the surgery center that did my band...then supposed to go to a benefit for 2 young ladies that were beaten with bats by some locos in Chicago-one of the ldies is an exchange student from Ireland, so a bunch of Irish bands and musicians are holding 2 simultaneous benefits, one north side of Chi one on South side of the city....should be fun... I have had the worst tooth-achey thing, not really a cavity, may need root canal and reg dentist doesn't want to do it, she wants me to see endodontist if it keeps being sensitive to hot and take tylenol in the meantime...always something.... Anyway, have good night and a great weekend...Is Dr Pamela all done with school...Michelle your kiddos are done also???

Me too!!!!!:tongue2:

WOW...congrats Laura.....and Russ and Carson=he's gonna be a big brudder.....how exciting!!!!

Janie, Happy Birthday... I am sorry I didn't pick that up....and yes, Elgin is about 40 miles from Chicago...and IN the city it does get pricey and now it is probably worse...not quite so bad in the burbs...so how far is it to KC from STL???...we've done STL a couple of times...ok, well think I am tucking it in for the night....have a great week all....and I also got de-friended....c'est la vie!!!!

Morning, err afternoon ladies....So excited and happy for you haydee-when are you due???? Michelle, my BFF's son is really excited for World Cup also....he coaches HS soccer...here it is Hockey, right now...our Chicago Blackhawks are in the Stanley Cup finals against Philadelphia....series tied at 2....they are home tonight....will be best of 3 now and we have home advantage.... I made Lifetime at WW yesterday....a milestone...I am actually 4.2 lbs below goal,,,then to find out, since I was alreadt lefetime many many moons ago, I should have not had to do the 6 weeks maintenance, or stop paying as soon I reached goal...which was late march...but since they have changed numbering systems since the dark ages, not sure of my old lifetime number...well see.... Janie, are you in/near Kansas city-we may be doing a road trip in July...Everyone else, have a great Sunday....I am off to the store...

Morning all, Was a beautiful weekend here....got my planters done, went to a great Irish festival Sunday, Monday just chillaxed...and our Blackhawks won TWICE...only 2 more wins needed for the STANLEY CUP....(that's Hockey!!!) Not much on agenda today....DD is off work and home...in the shower as we speak...2nd one in 12 hrs...umm, all you did was sleep....grr, she takes long showers....but we love her anyways.... Have an interview tomorrow for another temp position...my other thing ended Friday...cross your fingers and stuff... Michelle, am reading a Danielle Steele book, Sisters, and the storyline is starting with a similar scenario as your FIL.. Judy, hope your surgery goes well, they have come soooo far with it these days...you'll be zumba-ing in no time.... Janie are you in Kansas City area....I know Tracey W is...well, shower is over....everyone have a great day!!!

I like Parenthood, Haydee....I am soo ticked at NBC though-after the Conan disaster, they now have canceled TRAUMA and Mercy...this from the network that brought us FEAR FACTOR-sheesh...the idol kid was from this area...and the Biggest loser was too...AND I saw the Mayor of Elgin today...lol...at City hall and I met a city councilman...red letter day for me...yawn..have 2 more weeks until I hit LIFETIME with WW...still 1 1/2 lbs below goal...we went out for dinner and I had not 1 but "2" margaritas...and some enchiladas...guess what I am having for lunch tomorrow...ok, getting sleepy-trying to stay awake for Paula Deen on the CHIN, but fading fast...Kathy Griffith is on now...sometimes I can take her, sometimes not...

Evening all...wasn't much of a Lost fan either...in the beginning we watched, but "lost" second season....upsdate on my cousin, from his daughter :Dad remains in the Neuro ICU. He doesn't know much about reality at this point but when Shelley Rob or me walk in he knows who we are. That is a miracle compared to last week. Your continued thoughts and prayers are appreciated and please keep them coming. Like I said, he knew us yesterday-this happened last week Tuesday...he owns his own business and went home to do some stuff around the house-we think carry some patio furniture upstairs,,,he didn't come back for a big conference call, Daughter tried calling, got no answer, she headed to the house and called 911 on the way...he finally answered the phone but was incoherent, and when she got there, he was sitting in a chair in basement cradling the phone..there was blood on the floor and on the door jamb to stairway....Drs. thought he had been hit by a truck... Found my temp job will be over Friday...:mad:Guess it will a REALLY long weekend!!

Happy Birthday Janie AND WELCOME BACK AND CONGRATS, hAYDEE..had a busy weekend-for a change-went to see an old friend of my Mom's yesterday and went to Madison today to see my cousin Mike...for those not on FB, he fell down his basement stairs, we think backwards, enden up with a fractured skull and brain swelling...thankfully, he is doing "OK"-snoozing a lot, has pneumonia, but knew who we were today, knows his kids,,,tired and am working this temp job all week, I believe....so I better get to bed...will look in tomorrow!!

LOVE Skinny cow///the truffle bars...yummo...and the little cups...OMG...very good..glad everybody got home safe and sound...want to see more pictures of the bride!!!!.

<<<straightening up the room, dusting cobwebs...hope everybody is having fun....

Judy thats great!!!!! Hope everyone has safe travels....and a great time....I'll dust in here while you all are gone....just have a margie for me.....:smile2:
