Fri 10/19/2007 3:05p | Putting my ESP powers to work and saying NO, villains' DH hasn't heard ONE word from HER. Not a tough call there. I hope I'm wrong. Oh, well, I don't think villains has given it a thought the past 2 days, and I'm sure she is having a great time. I can't wait to hear about it.
I was just gonna ask you how you were faring, mater. Glad to see that all is well for now. It's rather windy here as well, but we won't get lucky enough to have our power go out here at work...I'll be stuck here until 4:30.
Hopefully, I have power when I get home. I have a housefull of hunters headed out tonight. They will all hang out by the fire pit so I will have the tv to myself. Court tv here I come. I have the generator, but it's a bit noisy until I get used to it.
I'll cross my fingers that you keep your power through the storm, mater.
Don't let tink be a bad influence on you or make you feel guilty. You shop and shop proudly for your christmas gifts. We'll deal with her later......:)

Sun 10/21/2007 9:19p | Well, rt has been waiting for one of us to show up, so I'll try to get caught up!
(It's the weekend, hardly anybody ever shows up on the weekend.)
There should be all kinds of news tomorrow. I think Villains returns and hopefully has internet access or we'll all be going crazy waiting to hear if she got her money back and how her trip was.
We also have to hear how Mickeynewe's DD show was!
And, I don't think that mickeynewe and I BOTH would have forgotten a detail such as MM being a Grandma. Therefore, this information must not ever have been given. I am appalled to have been accused of forgetting something of which I never knew in the first place. (waits for apology.)
Seriously, how cool is it to be a young grandma? That's awesome. Someone was telling me tonite about their friend who is becoming a grandfather for the 1st time and he's 83. I would HATE to wait that long. No energy left or anything. I can't wait to take the grandkids to DL and who knows how long it will be until I get some. (I have my little grand nephew, tho. My sis is a grandma~ My DH looked at me last year when we were in DL and he saw me looking at the little kids around us and he knew my wheels were turning~he says, "How long are you going to wait before you start bringing little Eddie with us?" Now, how did he know what I was thinking? I said, when he's fully potty trained.)
I have to admit that I do the same wrapping paper thing that MM and MN do. Everyone has their own paper. So far, I wrapped the couple of things I got the little nephew and he likes Spongebob. So, his gifts are in "Bunbob" paper as he calls him. I do keep notes, too, but I'm not organized enough to have an actual notebook, everything is scribbled on a piece of paper.
I can't wait to catch up on the all news tomorrow! (Well, here it's already tomorrow!)
Oh, one more thing. My DS uploaded or downloaded my photos from this summer's trip. He said there are 1310 of them! lol I thought it was a good time to start going through them b/c I get kind of sad when I look at the photos and know I won't be back for a while. We are down to 37 days, so I don't have a problem getting them developed now. (I know, I should get counseling. What can I say? I admit it, I'm a Disneyholic.) |

Mon 10/22/2007 9:30a | Good Morning! Hope all of you had a good weekend. My power stayed on all weekend. I think the weather people are a little off base with weather predictions sometimes. I froze saturday morning ( it was 30 degrees) at my DD7 final game for the season. Now she can focus on her upcoming cheer competition. I guess I will wait to hear how everyone's weekend was. I hope we hear from Villians soon. |

Mon 10/22/2007 9:52a | tink...horsepucky...mentioned I was a grama more than once...no apology forthcoming. "Little Eddie"??? Like from the Munsters??? And what's this bit about wrapping presents??!?!?! Did you say PRESENTS??? You gave mater all that crud last week, and here you are doing PRESENTS? If there is an apology in order, you owe one to mater for makin' her feel like a traitor if she did early shopping.
I didn't do squat this weekend. I had intentions of working in the shop and getting some projects done. I broke my bandsaw blade and was too lazy to put a new one on so I went down to the bonfire and roasted hot dogs, drank beer and made smores. It was actually pretty good...I don't normally blow off a whole weekend.
rtjl72 is a stalker, girls. Hey...you don't need to be a stalker, you can hook up with our happy little group. Look what happened to mater...she used to be a quasi-stalker, but see where she is now?
Ok...where the heck is villains??? I'm thinkin' that she is the one that had the best weekend, so she needs to share. Plus, we need the next installment regarding the $$. We're like "cross country" gossipers, aren't we?
mickey...need the review of DD's performance.............we're waiting... |

Mon 10/22/2007 11:09a | Jeez, I thought there would be more news by now! Maybe Villains didn't get her internet back yet. I hope that's not the case. We need to hear about her trip! We want a better report than last time, too! (Do ya hear me Villains?!)
I don't know MM, I don't know, Mickeynewe will come back on and back me up about the grandma thing, I'm sure. You are just trying to make us feel like we are senile.
And, Mater, don't let MM try to turn you around and make you think I am any further in my Christmas shopping than I admitted to. Yes, I bought Eddie those toys last week and wrapped them. Did I do any other shopping? No. Now, I'm worried that because I wrapped them so soon that they are going to need dusting before Christmas. The only reason I wrapped them at all was b/c I found the Spongebob paper at the $ store last week.
And Eddie does not resemble Eddie Munster! ;) He's a dreamboat!

Mon 10/22/2007 1:01p | Okay, I have to say I am with Tinker on this one- even after you were soooo nice to me on Friday MM. I really don't remember you ever saying you were a grama until now-- and I don't think its the meds either-- we all know how foggy them make my brain. I do believe you THINK you told us. How is that for walking both sides of the issue? :D
I am absolutely exhausted-- beyond exhausted, even though I went to bed at 8pm last night. However, we had a GREAT weekend and it was worth it! My DD did an awesome job, I am always so proud of her! I almost blew her main finale though. I don't know if I ever said that I was her assistant? Anyways, she brought the only 'large' illusion for the evening. And although we have rehearsed this time and time again--- this is the first time I have 'appeared' (without giving away the trick) and been met with a spotlight from the back of the room blaring me in the eyes. Surprised, I took a step back, LUCKILY caught my balance instead of ending in a heap on the floor, all the while kept a smile plastered on my face.
My daughter was also asked to help teach at a magic camp next summer -- a high compliment! :D
She picked up another gig for next weekend.
AND, then on Saturday night we decided to go enjoy a professional magician's show from our Assembly who was headlining his own show. We arrived early so we got to chat for a few minutes ahead of time. He totally made our DD's night when he pulled her out of the audience to saw her in half!
I was like, hmmmmm, when he pulled out an electric saw to do it. He even cut a piece of wood to show it was real. By now mama is sitting forward in her chair, while my daughter is in the box just grinning ear to ear while she watched him--- excited to be his victim, ahem I mean volunteer! After he cut the box/her in half. He took the bottom portion and tipped it up at an angle so you could see through to the back. Such a cool photo! I posted it on her website because she loved it so much so you can go take a look at it if you want Tinker.
RT feel free to join the group! We can be a rowdy bunch from time to time-- we love to antagonize one another, tease one another, and just give each other a really good go, but it is always done in fun and with good intentions. I hope to see you join in sometime.
Hugs to all~
Hey, Villians, time to check in!!!! |

Mon 10/22/2007 1:17p | Mickey, Villains is making us look like a couple of dopes! Wait 'til she gets back tomorrow! (Maybe MM mentioned it on another thread that we weren't participating in.)
I'm so happy DD's show was such a success! Did you have your costume in time? I'm glad you didn't fall when you were "blinded by the light." How awesome for her to be chosen as the sawing victim! I am going to check out the site after dinner. Isn't is great how she keeps getting more and more jobs because everyone is so impressed with her talent? You must be SO proud! (and busy!)

Mon 10/22/2007 1:30p | Aah Haa!!!!!! See...THAT'S why villains is my favorite!!!!! :) So, that proves once and for all that SOME of you don't pay attention!!!!! mickey can use the excuse of her meds...it's cheating, but she can use it. tink has NO excuse, and mater is acting kinda like Switzerland on this one...laying low so as not to get herself in trouble.
Horray for mickey's daughter!!!! I wanna see the pictures, too...what's her website? How wonderfully exciting for her. She'll remember being sawed in half for the rest of her life. I didn't know you were her able-bodied yet feeble-minded assistant. :) She's going to do the summer camp deal, isn't she? That's terrific for a girl that young...awesome!
Glad villains popped in for a sec. I was actually starting to worry. With all these fires right now, I was concerned about her. I'm no geography expert so maybe they were nowhere in that area, but just watching this on the news is so terrifying. Whole towns evacuated...can you imagine the nightmare it must be...trying to grab the things that mean the most to you, not to mention any important papers, then getting out along with thousands of other people and not knowing what will happen...I'm sayin' lots of prayers today.
I hope your warning didn't scare RT off, mickey. We could use another victim...I mean friend to hang with.
