Good morning Linda and the lazy bums who follow.

In case you missed any.

I have to go with "Dog Sitter" and "Release the Hounds". I really like "Karma" but just saw it for the first time.

Morning Cecil.

The party we went to as so loud I couldn't hear these, but the guy next to me was more fun than the game or the ads.

Crazy drunk people! LOL!

I am sitting here in my kitchen watching the most annoying person in the western hemisphere, Kathy Lee Gifford. I like Hoda, she's cool. They are looking at different bras. WTF is wrong with me?

I have a bit of a headache from last night. It was a good game, and I am happy for the Packers, as I dislike Ben Rothlisberger, all most as much as Kathy Lee Gifford. He is a rapist, pure and simple.

I am hoping Jerry recovers from whatever is ailing him. Jerry, many thoughts from me going your way.

Today, I am having a daddy/daughter lunch with Megan. She took a personal day. We are going to go look at some furniture for my grandson, as the new baby is due next month on St. Patrick's Day. :) :) :)

I hope everyone has a great rest of the day. Talk to you later.

Morning BT!!
I had a couple of friends over to watch the game but we were chatty and missed a lot of the ads... we chalked it up to them not being all that attention grabbing :)

Jerry! what's on the docket for today??

I've got to take LG in for dental surgery in a few minutes. I hate the moment he realizes that he's going in the carrier although I'm learning different ways to do it so that I don't have to pull him from under the couch.

Pretty day on tap here....

Boom, I've decided to keep the cat carrier, with a soft towel in it, in the living room behind my chair. Ashlee loves to nap in it and is no longer afraid of it. :)

PS, I started this two weeks prior to a visit to the vet in December.

Morning, buddies. I'm at Mom's doing stuff...there's always stuff to do. Then dr's appointment at 1:30, then mad dash back up the coast.

I have to go get a torn ankle tendon repaired on Thursday, so you might be seeing a bit more of me in the next month(I know: lucky you). They won't know until they look at it if I'll be off of it for 10 or 30 days. Insert big swear words here. I have THINGS TO DO, dammit. I don't have time for this .

Remember how brave and gracious Debbie B was when she had all her going on? Well, don't expect much from me.

Of to do more stuff....

Am I the only one who thinks Christina A butchered the national anthem last night? Why does the NFL continue to book "stars" who can't even be bothered to learn the words and have to sing off key and off melody? Why not just get the US Army chorus, US Marines chorus or a group like that that will sing the song the way it was written & meant to be sung?

OK, done venting now. Back to lurking.

Warm and gentle swaying hugs from Bonaire. Got a computer now, so thought I would give a shout out to you all! HI!

Dove south today at HB, omg! OHHHHHMMMM is all I can say. Life is good.

CB, brave and gracious? Moi? Ha. ha. ha. Ha.... thanks for the laugh. Got a another surgery when I get back from Bonaire, but not the knee this time and not so sure I will feel brave or gracious this time around, so we can to each other.

Off to see what adventure I can get into here.

Debs, if you just happen to be going past Eden Beach any chance of checking out what Satchmo is so interested in at the PierCam, he's been getting very close the last 3 days!! Maybe he's just trying his best to remove 'The Blob' :):)

CB, everything will be okay, I am sure of it. XXX

Debbie, VOUS!!! You were a champ! XXX

XXX to all that need or want. Jerry, you getting some no matter if you want them or not.

Anyone can miss a line in a song. Enough said on my part.

Jerry, no sitting on Mickey's lap - yet. We have been relaxing and enjoying ourselves. This morning I drove Ol W.H.N. to Sherman's Antiques in Lake Alfred, then we went to a H. D. shop in Lakeland. Have spent the remainder of the day relaxing here at the condo. It's a vacation - not a race:):):)

CB - Hugs - away!!

Hope all is well!
Since we have snow - well we made the best of it - at Winterlude this past wkd! Great wkd! Kidlets had fun with their cousins - adults had fun too - loved the ice slides. Superbowl - had Joel's Aunt and Uncle over - kids went to bed early (exhausted to begin with) and then adult time - vino was good, as were the snackies :). Great half time show but the music feed was poor here. Pics from the wkd - ice slide, Riker learning to skate, Rideau canal, and the Parliament Buildings.

Good evening all :)

Jerry, I hope you are doing better!!! Have the doctors given you a get out of jail day yet? Make sure you listen to them!!!!

CB, hugs..you do what you have to do. Moan and groan, yell at us, whatever it takes! We are all here for you!!!

Eileen, looks like fun!

Jim, WHAT a cutie pie!!! Yup, I see why you love him :)


Ken and I took a day for ourselves today with the grandtwins. We took them to our local aquarium, Atlantis, and had a fabulous time! The weather was warm (49*) and we were able to sit outside for the sea lion show which the girls enjoyed immensely. We also saw monkeys, iguanas, penguins, seals, turtles, tortoises...oh...and FISH! They absolutely love the ray petting tank. We must have spent an hour just playing with the rays :) Made for a nice day after such dreary weather. Plus it was as close as we could get to diving :)
