hi all
giving hugs and prayers to ps, kaarien and arnold, john.

will talk to all tomorrow
es

Elaine,hope you're now fast asleep out there in CA?!
Thank goodness it's Friday.....WOOHOO!!!!!

I'm up at the buttcrackofdawn; doing some last minute package wrapping, checking emails and trying to figure out why I'm up LOL! Have to run to the office in a little while. Hoping to literally run in and out but that rarely happens! I am going to take Miss Bubblette with me and leave the older girls home to enjoy the peace for a few hours! Our house sitter works for me so she will keep Bubbles in the office with her and then bring her back later in the day

Bought Rob some new dress khaki's last night. Apparently they, too, have had some phenomenon of shrinkage as they're not fitting him to well either LOL!! Will return those this AM and tell him to wear shorts to the wedding LMAO!!

Everyone have a safe, wonderful weekend. Will peek in once we get home.

Good Morning everyone! We have a long weekend ahead!!! We are campin' with our old neighbours! And their 3 kids!

We have the beverages ready - for the adults...

Looks like everyone had a blast here yesterday!!

elaine - rub it in sista' rub it in!!!!

Kobi - gosh if you had been up and hour earlier we could have chatted cause I had some doggie digestive issues last night and just overall bad mojo feelings and finally - FINALLY fell asleep at 3:30ish. And that dang alarm clock had the nerve to go off at 6:00 - rat bast***! I can't believe that even the pants in the store are shrinking - I'm telling you, they are making these men sizes smaller and smaller all the time. I'm sorry - what??? They don't do men's sizes like women's sizes??? Oh yeah - I forgot! LMDAO

Eileen- have a great time, we want pictures. And I think I'd need a Valium lick available if I were going camping with 6 kids. I don't have that much get up and go any more.

OK - here's hoping for a quick day and that's it's 4 thirsty quickly - VERY quickly.

Can I whine for a minute - you know I just think that talking on speaker phone in an open office environment is SOOOOOOOOO rude. I don't give a rat's butt about your warehouse inventory audits - and neither do the other 40 people around you!!!

Mara, LMAO You crack me up, girl.

I have to head to the store shortly to get tubby some other pants to try on. You'd think his lazy arse would go do it instead of me picking out, bringing home and then taking back?!?! DUH is what I say LOL!

Sorry about the doggie digestive shtuff. I'm praying these three kids stay OK while we're in Raleigh. I've got to get in gear here and get to the office. Seems my office manager(23yrs old) called in DRUNK!!!! I'm gonna put my foot up her.........

See ya guys!!

Sorry - I've heard of calling in crazy but calling in DRUNK!!! DANG! That's just NOT what you need right now. sigh...

Hope you have a great time in Raleigh and let's home it's not hotter than Hades!!!

Have fun - c'ya later.

Morning everyone!
You go Mara. Maybe you should take a page from Bette's book, put a helmet on the speaker phone person and whack them on the head with your clipboard.
Kobi, have a great trip. I know about those shrinking pants in the closet and in the store. A friend of mine used to say that her pants were getting shorter when she put on weight.
Eileen, good luck camping with 6 kids. Take plenty of pictures.
ES, have a great Friday.

Good grief, Kobi. You must have tons of patients to put up with employees.

Morning everyone...
When I read Linda's post, in my sleepiness, I was trying to figure our why Kobi had patients...then I realized she meant patience! lol

Unfortunately I know ALL about the shrinking clothes!

Kobs, thanks for letting us know about Pegi's Dad. You are right, she is such a caring person to even have remembered it WAS your birthday in the midst of all this.

I'm a bad speller, but I have a good heart.

Morning ladies I know about shrinking clothes too! A quick check in, then I go pick up Kiwi and off we go to the island Ya'll have a great weekend!

yOmO...I hear ya on the speaker phone in an open office...how wude!

Linda, you do have a good heart

Hi all.

Pat, thanks for the update. Happy to read that Debbie is safe and making progress.

Hello, is anyone out there.

No.



Anyway, I am off until Monday night!!!

If I'm not, the kids won...

Have a great weekend everyone. Gentle hugs to those who need them.

Bye for now!

I'm here Jerry, lizard sitting, Rianna volunteered to take care of her friends reptile thingy for 2 weeks, It's ugly and does big poops. I'm not amused. I will try and post a picture in a few.

No, don't go! I'm all alone, the voices are coming back.

Follow the yellow brick road, Lucy in the sky with diamonds.

I'm still messed up from all that typingallthewordstogetherthingthegalsweredoingtheotherday.

they just don't realize how many brain cells that used up.

RosAnne, thanks for the phone call while I was driving to my mom's. Life just isn't silly enough for me right now, and I appreciated the check in. Have fun with the lizard....

And it's hotter than blue blazes here today too - AARGH! Don't worry Jerry, I heard the voices are friendly...sort of.

BH - are you taking your CBT's or having write or edit them?

Hey CB, glad to see you on here! I hope all is going well and that your mom is improving. You have got to see this lizard, it is the ugliest thing I have ever seen!

Jerry, listen to the voices they will guide you!

YoMO, it it 4:30 yet?

Dang - it's not 4 thirty yet but just over 3 hours to go - hurray!!

We're going to dinner tonight at a new place that opened a few weeks ago called Kingsport Grocery Co. Very laid back place but the best thing about it - 55 different beers and I'm not talking Bud and Bud Lite.

Looks like the kids have left Tuffy - no jet ski or dinghy in sight.

come on beer thirty - oops - I mean 4 thirsty - oops, I really mean 4:30.

Mo been having to take them and then test...sad part with ours is you have to make 100% some aren't so bad but, the DOT and Hazardous Material test and some others are pretty tough.

Completed 9 in the last two days

RA, ah the life of a Mom...pool parties and lizard sitting.

Hi, MO. Hi, Jerry.

BH, getthosebraincellsdowntoamanagablelevelandyou'lldofine.

UGH - yeah we have to take those things every year. We don't have to take the DOT ones but of course we have to take the HazMat stuff. We can try to pre-test out of some of it and the secret there is if you miss a question and it says you have to take the training you can always log out and then back in and try again. but if you take it, yeah you have to score 100 BUT if you get one wrong they send you back to the section that was wrong and let you try again...until you pass.

My favorite training has been the drivers license training. It cracks me up because they say to have your license out when taking the training, but all you have to do is check to see if it's still valid - OMG!

CB - you put a grammar notation in your sentence, I didn't that was allowed.

Mo, I'm SUCH a rebel...

How does one eat crab balls, what do you use?

Oh Jerry I can think of a hundred answers but all of them would get me kicked off of BT forever!

very carefully Jerry Very carefully

My questions is:::: Why would anyone eat crab balls!!!!!

here kitty...kitty...kitty

Hi Freddie, I've missed you bud.

What kind of wine would one serve with crab balls?

Is it like crab cakes only round?

no they are teeny tiny little bitsy crab balls, and you eat them with itsy bitsy chop sticks and you serve them with ice wine

If your not good with chopsticks can you just sharpen one on the end and poke em'????

Freddie - you know WAY too much about crab balls I must say..

How many crab balls does it take to make a pound?

More than that...how do you pound a crab ball???

It takes 1201 crab balls to make a pound...........

BH, why would you want to pound a crab ball?

Well I ain't touching it so I have to hit it with something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it beer thirty yet?

Not yet.

BH, with a tiny ballpeen hammer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man I feel like I have lived a sheltered life.

Hey guys, crab balls taste just like chicken.

I don't think I remember a day like this here on BT, such sadness.

Jerry, I was thinking the same thing.

Jerry, I was thinking the same thing...

But on a lighter note:
Crab balls have kept the ladies away like PedEggs keep the guys away.

Donna - We're twins!!

I thought that was pretty...circle of life....I posted it in tribute to all of us...

Yes, we are, Linda!! GMTA!

Roy got us started on page 2 here:

and life goes on at FRIDAY PART TWO

DPT at your service
