Morning Denise and all who join in when they wake up. Last day of diving for me today. Really have enjoyed the diving this trip, was worried about Omar, but have found out there are lots of sites almost untouched. Have a great Monday, going to wash some salt off my truck windows and get some tanks.

Debbie, it is nice to be able to visualize you there and what you are doing. I can almost hear the bird barking, almost feel the warmth and the breeze. If I could just close my eyes and feel the water as I sink below the surface. Enjoy every wonderful moment...

Good Morning Everyone....rise and shine....alright just rise at least....I'm wishing for more sleep today, but hey at least I'm not Kobi, right!!??? Sorry Kobs!!

Thanks for the PS reminder and link...she was 12 yesteray...what happened!!????

anyhow...hope you all have a great day whatever you are doing, wherever you are...off to a busy day at work.

Hugs to all who need or want them!!

Morning Ladies, I voted, PS's picture is so much better than a pelican butt (13th)

Time to go to London for me.

Good Morning Everyone!!

GEE, I didn't even know it had dropped to 15th!!! I put a link on Google, so anyone that Googles a French Angel will find that. I'm trying to find places to put the link where people will see it and just vote for it. Just 'cause!!

Thanks for the link, Denise!!

I wonder how Kobi, um, Two Rolls is RIGHT NOW?????

Morning PegiSue & Tribs

Morning everyone! I voted, too.

I'm hoping Kobi is already under and having sweet dreams. After it's all over, she can have a big breakfast!!

Brian - good luck with your business in London.

Debbie - have a great last day of diving! Hope you see dolphins, shark, whale shark and everything else you want to see.

Keep Kobi and Kathy in your thoughts today. Kobi's procedure should go well, and then she'll be enjoying some food and drink! Hopefully Kathy's sonagram will provide her information to put her mind at ease about the tumor.

Otherwise - good morning everybody! A chilly 55 degrees here!

Tom, this reminded me of your heat seeking kitties - and mine.

Oh no, I missed Kathy's situation. Good luck Kathy!!!
Morning Gail.

Good Morning everyone...
PS, I got my vote in. Nice work!
I'm off to work too. Poof

http://www.guzer.com/videos/needle-art.php

to Kathy & Kobi today. I hope that they both check in when they know something.

OK, I need a dry suit. We had 6 tiles fall off our pool yesterday. I got the tiles out w/ the skimmer net, but there's little pieces of cement in there that will get stuck in the vaccume, that I can't get, UNLESS I GO IN!! I have turned the solar heater up all the way, so maybe it'll get warm... But the high today is only 60 something!! I have to do it. I'M GOIN' IN!!!

Hey, this will be like Tom and his Polar Bear Freeze Your Glitters Off thing!! I'm taking donations!!! Then we can have the pool redone!!!LOL

Go for it PegiSue!! Just make sure you have a big towel to jump into afterwards.

OMG Grasshopper. That guy must have very steady hands to make stuff that small. It would be hard to display any of his work if you bought it, but on the upside - the display case would small enough it wouldn't take up much space. Just don't dust it!

I'm going to have my big thick robe out there!! I like the cold, but I'm thinking cold when I'm wet will NOT be enjoyable!! I told G that if the pool gets warm enough I may still be in it when he gets home!! I'll be skeered...LOL

WOW! I just watched that video. That guy is amazing!

That guy IS amazing!

Jump on in PS! Many moons ago, when Black Jack was very old, he fell in the pool in January. I wrapped my rings on the railing to the stairs, but he was going deaf and couldn't hear me. He just kept swimming in a circle in the deep end..... so I did what I had to do. Stepped down onto the swimout and swam over to him and hauled him out. Wrapped him in towels and got me into a hot shower as fast as I could! No heater in those days!

The sun is blasting onto the solar panels as we speak!! It may happen soon
Now, if I had get in there to save something, I wouldn't hesitate...but for pieces of cement and some big leaves, I can hold off for a while! Don't wanna freeze my girlie glitters off!!LOL

Do it PS.

Morning all...is it really Monday? UGH! I love my job, but hate getting up in the mornings...lol...

Good luck to Kobs and Kathy, I hope they both check in.

Grasslooper, wow...amazing...

Time to make the donuts...

I love donuts.

I want a donut. None to be had here.

Many prayers and good vibes going out to Kathy and Kobi

Me is a wee bit hungover Too much wine at the neighborhood open house but it was fun. Now I just have to face the music in about 15 mins when Guy gets home.... "no honey I don't want to workout (although I do have my workout clothes on), no honey I don't want to work on the website.... do I really have to run the vacuum?"
He's been planning things all night while at work... I'm just sure of it.

PS maybe I should jump in your pool!!

G.M.T.A.

Kathy and Kobi.....prayers up to you both.

This work stuff is cutting in to my BT time but, I guess that's the way it has to be.

Jerry I'll take a jelly filled.

Sorry BB, them be gone.
When it's slow like this I tend to eat more.
I'm grilling some Italian Sausage and peppers.

Just my luck....think I need something spicier today.

Just for you Chuck.

So Jerry....that's just don't work....maybe if they didn't sing.

I voted too

Puppies are awake, but not me, going under my desk for a nap, later.

A little Jimmy Thackery

Why are they ringing the bells?

Not sure....maybe it's an Omen?????

Lights are dimming, that's not good.

You pay the light bill????

Go get one the high dollar coffee place drinks...maybe a vinte-carmel-mocha-double frapachino-espresso-latte-with whip cream.

BH, YGM coming.

Kobi - Kathy - How are you!?!?!?!

Looking.

Hi guys, just got back from the diagnostic center. Unfortunately they wouldn't tell me anything, and they said my doc would have the results in 3-4 days. So I wait.

What was Kobi having done?

Thanks for thinking of us!

Say CHEESE, Colonoscopy.

The waiting game stinks Kathy.

Hey Big Man let me hold a dollar!!!!

Cripes... 3-4 days We'll be here waiting with you Kathy -- only positive thoughts.

Time to head to Coscto for Rasta Chickens, Carrots and Broccoli
I'm hoping they have a nice Prime Rib --- for some reason I am jonesing for a perfectly rare piece of PR with mmm mmmm horseradish sauce.

Better get something for lunch before we go or I'll buy all kinds of bad things to eat.

Kobi, I hope you and your Mommy are getting in some good time together as you come to.

But Kathy - now you get to enjoy your 50 inch plasma! I bet you payed way less than we did 3 yrs ago!

I just watched the most amazing 7 yr old girl on The Ellen Show. She's like this accomplished concert pianist at 8! She started composing at 3 yrs of age. She composed a special song for Ellen, which she played for her. She played at the White House, and was glad because she got to meet the Jonas Brothers and the President - in that order! She's also composed a song for Barrack, and hopes to be able to perform for him.

Nice pot of chili simmering on the stove. Some shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream to top it off, and will make corn bread closer to 6 when John gets home. I just did a taste test - more chili powder needed!

Did MF ever check in? She should be home now.....

News just stated the Cal fires are still burning - you all OK?

Let's try this one same song:



Here's the link if it don't

Got to go finish up some stuff so I can get out of here for the day....ya'll have a great evening and will catch you on the other side.

Mother Freddie is home and freezing.

What other side? What are you talking about?
Would someone please answer the phone!
I think my belly-button has gone numb?

That's it kids, the time has come.
Please use care if using heavy machines.


Click!

Yep Jerry, the waiting game suckles. Didn't know if we can use the other word!

Gail, thanks. The 50 inch plasma cost him about $900, he said it was a steal. But last night watching it I wanted to back up. So dang big! Will take some getting used to. And one of the things his dad ordered and never opened was a home theater system, so Larry is anxious to get that all hooked up - all those speakers and what not. And the tv is so big it doesn't quite fit right in my entertainment center. I can't take things off balance (my own Monkishness!) Gonna have to work on that or get a new one.

Gonna have a lot going on here this month, and I dunno about anything till my doctor tells me what's going on. But the guy is going to start building our sea wall shortly, so it will be construction worker city here. He's coming Saturday to do a final planning with us.

Have a great night all.

Awful quiet out there...no HH....

Hey Mods get ready Zap It if you need to

Hey BH, that last one, I danced to many a time in AL during my divorced years. lol Thanks.

I danced to as well, I just can't remember why????


Bing!

BH - some good tunes there

Kathy - only positive thoughts for you.
Wow - that's a great price on the 50 inch plasma! Enjoy it
Kobi - hope you & your Mommy had a BIG dinner together & got some shopping in! Been thinking of you.
Boom - Rasta's dinner sounds pretty yummy.
Prime Rib sounds pretty darn good too! We haven't had that in a very long time. That's usually Christmas dinner......well just maybe we'll have to get a prime rib soon!
Gail...your chili sounds pretty yummy too
We're having cornish hens, stuffing & broccoli & cauliflower
Enjoy the rest of the evening everyone....got some paperwork to catch up on
Hugs to All

My belly-button is still numb.

Good Evening everyone...Amanda was NOT chosen for the Teach for America program...she called me earlier....crying...Amanda almost NEVER cries...my heart is breaking for her.......

now she'll be applying to grad schools, I think she's worried about more rejection...she knows how hard it is to get into grad school...she's a top student with excellent character...and not at all used to rejection....

Hugs to Amanda - please remind her that it's just a way of keeping her open for the 'right' thing. There is a reason and it 's not rejection just opportunity HUGS!!!!

We blew threw Costco and were both so hungry we beat the old people to the Early Bird dinner at the local watering hole!!! They have an Omaha open face sandwich dinner that fit the bill perfectly - not to mention strong margaritas.

Now I just have to put the goods away, feed the kids and get the bags packed for the gym and work tomorrow.

The fires are completely under control here but the heartbreak is just starting. 210 homes destroyed, I don't know how many damaged. I'm still trying to find out info on pet fostering. The need is just so overwhelming and just a week before Thanksgiving.
The holidays will be very special here no doubt.

Judy, always good to see you my friend.
Kathy, positive thoughts - enjoy your new home theater. It sounds great!
Kobi, hoping you and your mom are having a great time and all else is just a distant memory.

Okay, gotta get the goods put away before things go awry.

Jammies are calling too!!!

Thanks, Tara...I know...it was just so hard to hear her so upset!
