Mon 11/5/2007 9:30a | Hi, guys...just popping on for a second to say good morning, and then I'll be back on asap.
We have inventory this month, so I won't have as much time to mess around as usual. I'l probably have to cut my time from 3 hours to 2. :)
Man, you guys had lots going on this weekend.
We had DD's concert, I spent too much money shopping, went to a party saturday night, and then had a bunch of people up yesterday. And, yes...I had it out with HIM.
villains...well, as usual, I am speechless over the situation with HER. I think we should put you on Judge Judy.
I'll be back as soon as I can. |

Mon 11/5/2007 9:31a | Okay send your MIL to my house - my b-day was in Sept and I really need the deep cleaning - heck I need the regular cleaning...I am now the worst mother in the world (according to my kids) since they were such boogers about the halloween party (which my sis and my mom said was absolutly a blast), I haven't let them play video games, watch tv or anything else (well other than the soccer tourney yesterday). They are still not allowed to do anything until their rooms are spotless!!
I spent most of my weekend preparing to and listing items on ebay...Such a long process!! My kids have so much stuff - and alot of it is like new that I gave away the stuff that wasn't sellable (in my opinion) and have started selling the rest - I could probably spend the next two months listing things!! I even found toys in the attic that I forgot I bought and are to young for my kids now (those are going to the toys for tots)...
Where is MM - this is almost friend abuse - making us wait like this!!!
I know how to get her attention -
WOOO HOOO DOLLAR BEER HERE!! :) |

Mon 11/5/2007 11:22a | Villains, you are too funny! I love the dollar beers idea! lol Those drinks you had over the weekend sound yummy! I've got to get to the liquor store.
What's this about Mater putting up her lights? Mater, you and I need to talk. Well, come to think of it, I did get one more gift, another CD on Ebay. So, now I have 2 stocking stuffers for one DS. I had a heck of a time trying to get a m.o. for it today. I couldn't get near the m.o. place because the streets were being paved, so I went to Walmart to return the shelf liner paper I bought that was the wrong size. Here, they sell m.o.s and they were only 46c. I wasted more than 46c worth of gas trying to get to the other place. (Who doesn't take Paypal, anyway? lol) I hope you make out well selling on Ebay, Villains. I never do. I had these stupid coupon/stamp cards I tried to sell for Panera Bread. I have 4 of them and the Panera Bread stores in my area don't let you use them anymore. So, I listed them on Ebay when I saw 2 pages of them for sale. When the auction was almost over, Ebay bumped it off and said I can't sell more than 2 coupons. So, I did a search and sellers have, 4, 6 10, even 20 of them for sale. How come they weren't bumped off, I asked. I get a canned reply. So, I list them again 2 and 2 for sale. A buyer wins both auctions, with a zero by their name. They claim they are sending a m. o. which I never got. I had to put a claim in so I don't get charged for the listings. Someone, apparently doesn't want me to make a lousy 10 bucks on these stupid coupons! I put in the description that they are no longer accepted in my area and check with your local stores before purchasing. I think that is what's bothering the other sellers, they don't want anyone to know that. Do you think I should try again or give up?
Villains your Christmas lights story reminded me of an old Jeff Foxworthy joke. "If your kid's are searching for Easter eggs and they trip over the Christmas lights... you might be a redneck!"
I guess I'll get to that shelf paper now while I wait for MM to check in... |

Mon 11/5/2007 11:33a | Geez, you guys...ok, I will tell my tale in chapters, building up to yesterday's climax.
villains was supposed to finish HER deal before I told you mine.
The promise of dollar beers and Rita's altered my feelings on that, however.
Chapter 1
HIS name is Mark, and he had been a friend of my ex since childhood, and a friend of mine since 1987.
Upon my divorce from my ex, I inherited a handful of his friends. I was happy to "keep" them because we had become close over the years.
DH initially thought it unusual that I had kept some of the ex's friends, but once he met them, he liked them as well. They immediately took a liking to DH, and now they consider him their friend, and they have become very close buddies.
We have 30 acres of property, and one of the things that the guys do is come up hunting every year. It's been going on since I bought the place 14 years ago. DH doesn't hunt, but he doesn't have a problem with the guys still comming out to do so.
When I was with the ex, the guys would stay in the house. I would get up every morning at 3 a.m. to make them coffee and breakfast, and when they got back at night, there would be a huge dinner waiting. I picked up after them, did their laundry while they were there, and was basically the slave.
This was NOT what they expected me to do, but it was what my ex DEMANDED that I do.
After the ex was gone, the guys became self sufficient, and we actually come home to them cooking dinner for us many times.
When DH's parents bought a new RV, they gave us their old one. It was in great condition and all, but we prefer to tent it, not RV it. DH decided to put it on our property and set it up for the guys to use as a hunting cabin. He basically gutted it, put in new insulation, re-did the walls in tongue and groove cedar, put in hardwood floors, re-sided it , put an awning off the front, built a deck around it, and made a bbq/fireplace pit. The guys love the place.
Mark (HIM) started bringing 3 of his friends up with him to go hunting. We have become friends with these guys as well, and we enjoy their company.
Gotta go do some w**k...I'll come back with chapter 2 shortly. |
