today i would like to celebrate life
how wonderful it really is and how
very lucky we are
i shall quote barbwa
"I do agree though that it is a life to be celebrated.
She is no longer in pain, and for that we can all be grateful."
aunt jo was a amazing woman
she had a zest for life, and a passion
to live it
she traveled all over the world
and lived in many places, yet
always came back to her family
my cousin arleen is her only child,
aunt jo has passed onto her daughter
the virtue of life, the goodness of people
and to always savor a good glass
of wine
so to you aunt jo, i raise a glass
of wine, and celebrate your life
and thank you for the amazing
memories that will grow in my
heart forever
and to all of you, who have lost
love ones, i celebrate their life
and what they have given you
in the words of aunt jo
"yes my love" that was her
catchphrase, one i will always
remember and cherish~~
life~~a celebration!

Congrats IBHO! LOL
dangit I was caught up at other sites!
Well, hopefully it was cathardic(sp?lmao...sad I don't know)

I can't play much today. Lots of last minute stuff to do before the big Custard meet. At least I already know he's hot and spicy. LOL
Awwww, "yes, my love"!:)
That is so sweet!
Just_Lin: I'm getting more and more excited for you, like it's me that's going to get some Custard!ROFLMAO
...chile today, hot tamale;)hehe
They have billboards of that in SC on the way to South of the Border!

Life should be celebrated, as it gives us so much. I celebrate your mom as she gave us you...
♥♥♥
ibb
Congrats on First. Go have a glass of wine and Celebrate!
Awww Carol! You just made me shed a tear! That's the sweetest thing I think anyone's ever said to me! LOL
I appreciate YOU and ALL of these wonderful people here!:)
Oh and to BONO: Congrats on the quote! Too funny! I miss watching those tattoo shows!
Good Friday to all.....
cpgem - today, we will celebrate Aunt Flo's life with First, marching, Mr. Custard and everything else we do on a daily basis.....
IBB - congrats on First -
Just Lin - how much getting ready can there be?? ;-)
Joey - dangnabit!!
I will be resting today - I really hate to think of FOUR fifty percent off coupons going to waste - oh well - my health is more important (I can't believe I just said that!!)
I hope everyone has an excellent Good Friday!!
Thanks Just_lin... I hope you have a wonderful week... I am so excited for you!!!
Jhoey--
good morning!!!
CPGEM---
I am sorry for your loss... My toughts are with your you and your family!! She sounds like an extrodinary woman!!
joey
Are you sure that is the sweetest thing you have ever heard..
What about those weekends...hmmmm...
Good Morning, cpgem..
we were typing at the same time and having the SAME thoughts!!
hugs to you today!!
Good Morning Owls! I finally have most of my feeling in my back again. It has been a rough few days, as I was simply sitting and drinking coffee when my back decided to have a spasm. Scary!! (and YES, I did go to the doctor.)
My house is a wreck and I have a lot to do to get ready for the Easter Bunny to bounce into town, but I don't mind a bit. It is a rare occasion that we get to spend a holiday just together as our family and nobody else. I am looking forward to it. Dying eggs, hunting for plastic eggs, baking a ham with scalloped potatoes and asparagus... just another reason to celebrate life and family and good times together.
And celebrating the ability to walk again.
Hope you all have a great day. Don't take the little stuff for granted!
oops I was still writing in area 51. I forgot I had to come back to the main page! Congrats IBB!
JustLynn~I hope you have a "ball" with custard LOL! We want pictures!
Remember "we are family". Maybe you better not tell him you have over 40 Owl relatives!
MEK--- morning...
And whtat else could you possibly NEED from Michael's... Notice I said NEED not WANT!!!
haha@Mek to Just_Lin!(hey, a lady has to be ready;)hehe)
Feel better Mek! I can't believe you're putting YOUR health BEFORE scrapbooking supplies shopping!hehe..Should we call Guiness?
IBHO:I'll let you slide with those couple typos..It's a holiday weekend!haha
Good Morning every one! Maybe I am in the top 10!!! Hoot Hoot!
Another beautiful post Carol.
I too raise my glass of wonderful Sonoma County Zinfandel to each and every one of my lovely friends here on the Nest.
May each of you also Celebrate Life in which ever way you choose.
And to Aunt Jo, what a terrific, courageous and beautiful person!
Peace and Love to all, DonnaJean
Morning MAry/Mi!!!!
See - even the spelling policeman is out in full force - you would think that today he would just give warnings instead of tickets, but NOOOOOOO, life has to continue!!!
:-)
LOL@Carol! Those weren't so much "sweet" as "sexy"! haha
Hey Glynis and Mary and anyone else I missed!
Ahh Glynis, I miss those good ole' days of doing eggs with my brothers and we'd take turns with the egg hiding! All of the adults over would hide for the young ones, and then the young ones would hide them for us adults to find! LOL
I also used to do an Easter egg tree out in our yard with this little twig tree! haha
I kinda miss those days..but good memories!
DOING eggs?LMAO
I think I might have meant "dying"!
Hi donnajean!
LMAO@Mek! Yes, I am just giving ORAL warnings for now;)
OMG - and I can't believe that Joey missed my major ERROR this morning..
Hi back Joey!
You are just too darn cute for words!
Glynis - glad your back is feeling better -
Last year, I dyed eggs just because I could - and it wasn't as fun as I remember it being as a child.. what a J O B getting those little dye things to break up in the coffee cups and the mess it made!!! LOL
Now I'm stumped Mek! LOL..It must be in area 51, or either I'm still half asleep!(peeps?haha)I love peeps!(Thanks for that peep show Jodi!)-Yes myspace comments people! LOL
You can slide anyway because you're ill! lol
Hope your back feels better Glynis!
OMG I got it Mek! You called her Aunt FLO, instead of Aunt JO! Do NOT mess with the Spelling Police;)hehe
THIRTY
Good job, Joey ---
I really didn't want to have to call myself out!!!
I am praying that Aunt Jo will find the humor in it...
cpgem - I am so sorry!! At least I can laugh at myself!!!
Oh joey---I mean Jhoey...Don't spare me... do tell...
LMAO@Mek with "30"!
It reminds me of my Aunt's old saying, "Go with the Flo" and I'm Flo! LOL
Okay, I may dip out for a bit! I might need to clean my apt. today!
My Aunt and I are going out for a nice Saturday tomorrow of thrift shops, yard sales, and bargain hunting in general! LOL
One person's trash is another person's treasure!
Pray we get along! lol
12:13(IBHO):
"thoughts" and "extraordinary"!
I hereby give you one warning ticket for misspelling! lol
Citation #69696969! lmao

Or send a hottie over with nothing but an apron on;)hehe
Ibebold high 5 on #1!
Just_Lin woo hoo on finally seeing Custard.
Joey you need caffeine or pop a B12. That will wake you up.
Carol big warm hugs to you and your family!
Mek, Mary?Mi & Doona Jean waving hello

Okay, I'll stop "policing" for now! I was just having fun! Time to crank some music and clean!
Is Zonababy sick?

LMAO@Dreama! Do you have a creamy center like a cadbury egg?hehe
Awww IBHO, it's otay!(purposely misspelled, think Buckwheat-haha)
We still love you and know it was from your heart..I'm just messing with y'all this morning!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter. Thanks for the Myspace Easter wishes. I am always in awe of how you guys can go down each memeber of your friends list and do that. I always get it all mixed up and after 10 comments , sometimes less then I forget where I'm at on the list.
Joey
you missed your calling in life as a stand up comedian!
:0)
I'm going to buy some Cadbury eggs and take to my Mom for us to dig into. They only come out at Easter ya know! So got to get some!!!
Joey - leave IBB alone!!
:-)
OH - and from yesterday -
Tina - THANK YOU for putting your store for your profile pic!! Makes me all warm and fuzzy to see MORE craft stores!!!

Okay - my morning is complete..
SOON - K'girl will be doing her famous march!! :-)
Sorry to hear that lunch was cancelled for Goldie and Jodi
I remember - in Colorado is ALWAYS snowed during spring break - it was just the way it was!! and when we had to go back to school - the weather was wonderful again..
another candy that they only make at Easter is
VANILLA CREAM eggs from Russel Stovers... YUMMY
last week - Walgreen's had a coupon (yes, another coupon) three for a dollar - limit 6 - so I had to go SEVERAL times thru the line to stock up ...
Last year - I bought the BOXES that were left over when the candy went on sale!!! :-)
Wow you guys! I can't keep up! LOL
Carol I love the new blog and I wish I could have met Aunt Jo! Will be raising a glass to her!
I am going to repost from area 51 in case anyone missed it:
Any PNW traveling I-5 south in WA state this weekend I am working the Scatter Creek rest stop exit 88 of I-5( have to buy easter goodies somehow) LMAO from 10-2:00pm on Sunday.
This is to help raise funds for our foodbank and Old School House in Rainier. Pop in and say Hi if you have a chance.
PS I will only be pushing coffee and cookies there.
Custard did someone say Custard??? Whew it is getting close JustLin.
Glynis: Have fun with kids this weekend. I have to say I kind of don't miss dying eggs! LOL That and scooping out pumpkin guts!
MEK: Does you picture say MEKals craft store?
I will check back in a bit!

MEK- thanks for taking care of my Bully!!!LOL...LOL... Just kidding Joey!!
But thats what big sisters do!!!
The ... THE...
I know...I know!!!
Blessed Good Friday All, especially dear Carol. I raise my first coffee of the morning to your Aunt Jo. "To Life!!" And, when the time comes, to be freed FROM this life for something better. What a symbolic day Aunt Jo chose to make that transition. I'd like to think that somewhere my Aunt Carol, who passed last week, is there to take her hand and say "Come with me, new friend. Wait 'til you see this place!!!"
Bon... How sweet...
Thanks for all the well wishes concerning me and Custard. When I finally am with him I think I will feel like I am on an old-time radio show you all are out there listening in. LOL OK, I really do have to tear myself away and start doing things, like pick up stuff at the cleaners, go over pet care instructions, pack, etc., etc.
Carol I'm so glad you had Aunt Jo in your life. What a treasure. (((HUGS)))
LynnD~ LMAO "Meckals"!
When I went to take a quick shower you were at 17!
I forgot we were going to the American Legions last fish dinner today. I'm sure If I think hard enough I can think of another reason not to do housework LOL!
Joey I love all the sales you mentioned! I usually don't buy, but I get a good idea on what things are worth.You never know when that info. will come in handy, especially at tag sales and auctions, or even things you have at home. It's nice to know what they are worth. I love the Antique Road Show.
I better do my hair before it poofs" up into something unrecognizable!
aww thanks Dreama!
Too funny Mek about the after Easter box of candy buying! Sounds like myself!
ROFLMAO@lynnD with MEKals!
Love it!
GO to Mek's myspace comments, or click below to see her standing outside of her new store "MEKals"!
Thanks lynnD!
MEKals
I really need to get ready for work... working extra today..
Hope it is BUSY!!!!!Hope you all have a great "Good Friday"...
Love and HUGS to all!!!!
Where's turtle???
Do I have to do it for her!!!
69!!! For turtle!!!
haha@69 for turtle..It matches your citation number:)
I am NOT going to get anything accomplished unless I unplug this laptop! LOL
OMG you will not believe what movie I'm gonna try to talk my Aunt into us going to see tomorrow! and it's free!
Lyric Theatre is playing "For the Bible tells me So"-What is so ironic about it, is that one of my myspace friends, blogged about it yesterday!
FOR THE BIBLE TELLS ME SO official site!
Here is a clip from youtube(It's done cartoon style and is very interesting)!
YOUTUBE CLIP
Okay - this post is for Joey.. Thanks for making me my own craft store!!!
aww Mek..You're welcome!:)
Here is the link to the neat lyric theatre also! My Aunt and I saw the musical "HAIR" here about 10 yrs. ago! Yes, it had nudity! haha
My uncle acted stupid about it!
They have renovated the space above it and made these amazing apartments(I saw pics online last year)! I want to go up and see them in person! All the rich parents of the VA Tech kids can afford to put them up there! haha
I think rent is like $3,000 per month or something astronomical!
LYRIC THEATRE in VA
Really stepping away this time..
Joey, one of these days I'm going to learn how to do that!( MEK's sign add on) I'm not too swift in that dept.
IBB ~ I Hope you have good tip$
tonight!
I've s--t showered,shaved and put my war paint on. I'm ready to meet the world!
Carol:
"Aloha wau a ia oe, me ke pumehana"
I raise a glass of Dom Perignon, and toast a woman that obviously left her footprint on your soul...
Cherish the laughter and love she leaves as her imprint on your life.
And know that she may not be physically with you, but every day you will see a sign, and it will be her!
IBB: Thanks for marching in my place
Hoping everyone of the hooters has a peaceful day. Life is too short, cherish it all.
Carol...I am so sorry for your loss. I hold my cup of chai high (sorry I don't drink the other stuff) and toast your wonderful aunt. And I love your celebration of her and of life.
I saw the movie the Bucket List last night that is exactly about that...celebrating life and living in the moment. If you haven't seen it yet, it's a good one!
I'd love to write my usual novel but you all have made me really hungry...I am heading to the mall to look for chocolate Easter anything!!!
dang...where is everybody?
just a quick fly by to say hi....
haven't read the comments yet...so hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday....It's blowing like crazy and cold.....but the shopping must go on:)
WOW! Did someone put up a 'FOR RENT' sign at the nest? 2 1/2 hours of nothin'?
Just stopping in to re-read over lunch.
WhabBunny ~~ You said "Fun! Fun! Fun! Ho! Ho! Ho! Oh, wait. That's a Christmas expression. Oh, well. You owls have made it appropriate year round!"
All you have to do is 'p' on it to make it an Easter expression....HOp, HOp, HOp!!
I have to share something I just saw that I've NEVER seen before in my life, and it was beautiful. At least a dozen golden butterflies swooping and circling swiftly back and forth together in the sunshine. Is it Spring? Is it a sign? Of what? Hmmmmmm
NEAT BONO!:)Wished you would've had the video camera rolling!
The nest has been rather "empty" today!
scirish: You're getting a day ahead of yourself?haha...Saturday?
I had a myspace friend send me a "Wednesday" comment yesterday! LMAO
The funny thing is that yesterday DID seem like Friday and today Saturday-and I'm NOT the first to say that!?I hear twilight zone music! LMAO
doo doo doo doo...haha
Joey~~ No 'doo-doo' in the nest! If Whab 'p's and you doo-doo, the HO*MEK sisters will get hurt during the next march!
bonO: LMAO at you~
Great post Carol!
Jodie & Goldie,
So far I did not get any of the snow.
Did you guys get it?
iteach:
My mom is getting slammed as we speak, she is about 3 miles from Ohare airport.
85
I just woke up from a VERY long nap - heck, I just went back to bed!! Still feel crappy - but at least I am rested...
AND - sadly, let four (count them four) Michael's coupons expire today - you KNOW I'm not well if that happens!!!
And, I agree with everyone -where is everyone??!!
iteach~ We just got back from our fish dinner. We slipped right by our driveway! I'm glad the car behind us noticed out turn signal. Mr Mary was driving slow, tuned his blinkers early and we still slid on by! It is nasty out there! Mother Nature rules! LOL!
88 - my little brother's football number!!!
Mary - glad the car behind you didn't hit you... I always worry about the OTHER drivers during a snowstorm..
to bad Barb in WA is at the beach - she loves to do this..
Bono - love to watch butterflies -
IBB - hope tonight is busy for you.
Joey -did you enjoy the movie
Just Lin - are you packed and "ready" yet.
95
96
where is tina
98
99
100
That march was in honor of
Aunt Jo!!
:-)
I'm going to go lay back down!!
Basketball is on tonight - so, sadly, there isn't even a rerun of Ghost Whisper..
Hope everyone had an excellent day..
mek~There are a lot of foolish drivers out there. i drive like the little old lady that I am LOL!
Yesterday I had a first. A man on a bike who was all bundled up pulled out in front of me and stayed on the black top. He never even looked up before turning! I almost ran into him! I know gas prices are high, but 30' weather is too cold on a bike! We live out in the boonies BRRRRR!
Good grief MEK I was typing while you were marching LOL!! Go back to bed girl!
Mary - I wondered where you went!!
We actually saw people riding bikes on the interstate during our drive home....... I am not really sure they were supposed to be out there... (but it wasn't snowing either)
Everything one hour away from me is getting all the now.
So I feel really blessed right now!
Mary are you staying in for the rest of the night?
I'm still perched on my limb, can't you see LOL!!
Mek I can't wait for Netflix to send me season two of GW!
When is Nowmercy going to come out and play again?
That's good Mary, as long as you are not in a ditch.
Oh, neat I was comment 111. Cool
iteach, yes I am hunkered down for the night. Mr Mary went to the VFW to play cards. He is nuts LOL!
Iteach - glad you enjoyed the first season of GW -
Hi everyone. I have been sitting here reading and toasting (*hic) Aunt Jo. Sounds like she enjoyed life and would approve.
Jodi and I had to cancel lunch and now I am pissed-we only got 6 inches -where is the 12 inches I was promised!! *hic
mary/mi- you have to google Madison, WI. Capital of bike riding. In the sun, sleet, snow and all around shit. No little blizzard is going to stop the bike riders around here!
Off to make some dinner. Tacos- now is that a red wine *hic* or white wine dinner?
:)
Goldie LMAO sounds like you are having an "it doesn't matter what the hell your drinking" dinner!!
Goldie~~Beef or fish tacos?
Carol, it sounds like Aunt Jo had a great life and lived it to the fullest!
just_lin, I'm so excited for you!!!
Joey, it brought a smile to my face when you mentioned South of the Border! OMG, how does that place stay in business?? It's so gross!! It's a landmark, though, huh?
MEK, your avitar (is that what it's called?) is so cute! And the one Joey made for you is even better! Feel better.
Glynis, so glad your back is better.
Dreama, I love Cadbury eggs!
IBB, you reminded me of my Mom--her sisters worked in a drug store and after Easter they would bring her all that half price candy--like those pecan eggs with the white cream in the middle and tons of jelly beans! And my Mom was and still is a bean pole!! Not fair.
iteach, I'm still collecting stuff to send you.
Have a great Friday night everyone. I'm off to play Bunko.
I think you need margritias (sp) with tacos!
Beef ( shhhhh dont tell) taco's and margarita's it is!!! *hic
Joey,
That is too funny. I play the Twilight Zone music in one particular case but you aren't involved, um...yet. LOL.
Sandie,
I could only find orange and caramel Cadbury eggs this year and I couldn't find the beautiful decorated chocolate eggs with the pink and yellow iced ribbons.
Goldie
um Prevacid goes with tacos when I make them. :0)
For you wintry owls I guess I better blow some of our sunshine your way.
Okay, got to take this baked chicken out of the oven.
Goldie I promise (whispering) not to tell the Pope.
Goldie - did the quote of the day make you crave tacos??!!
Goldie:
A shot of tequila as well!!!!
OMG...the Wizard of Oz is on t.v.right now..I am 48 years old and that wicked witch of the west frightened the s*#t out of me when I was a child and still does. It's the cackle!!!
iteach and everyone that lives in the same part of the world...I just heard on the news that you are having horrific weather conditions today..storms and now floods...hope you are all safe, dry and warm!
Tinka, MEK, Diane and to all those who are sick....good and healing vibes to you!
Just flying in for a bit.
Joey: So glad I inspired you! LOL I love the store you created for MEK.
Bono: When my Aunt Joyce (Mom's Sis) was ready to pass away she kept telling us the she would come back as a butterfly. Every family gathering we have it never fails a butterfly shows up and lands on someone. So I am guessing you saw my aunt and all of her friends getting ready to find us this year!
MEK: I layed down and took a long nap too! Woke up feeling like crap! It is not fair. I have been fighting a raging headache all day.
I hope goldie make an extra pitcher of margaritas for the nest! I think I could really use one.
Oh, VIG, I love the Wizard of Oz!
GOLDIE - LOL @ your little *hics!!! I hope you had a couple for me!!!
ITEACH - We've only gotten about 6 inches, but it hasn't stopped yet. I'll have to give you the update in the morning.
VIG - Love the Wizard of Oz - but Sound of Music is on here......I so love that movie!!!
MEK - Feel better soon!!!
TURTLE - Been looking for your email. You must have gotten busy.
BON - Butterflies was kind of the theme at my Aunt Karen's funeral (the one with MS). So I always imagine that she is near when I see one. For what she went thru with that disease, it gives me joy thinking that she is as free as a butterfly!!!
130!!!
I did Carolyn's nursery in butterflies.
I just love it them fluttering all over her room.
Hodi:
You got mail!
MEK- no Mr. Goldie's idea.
Thanks for not telling the Pope iteach. I would hate to be the one who caused his demise!
Tequila and brownies for all!
iteach:
Mom said they have gotten about 7 inches but that it has stopped up there.
Good night all you HOoters!!! I open this weekend - so I best get my beauty sleep!!!
GOLDIE - Looking forward to next Friday. The kids have spring break all next week - so I'm sure by then I'll need a couple cocktails!!! LOL!!
iteach and jodi...I agree WOO is a fabulous movie but that witch...hmmmm, not so good! Jodi, you are really lucky to have Sound of Music on tonight...what a great long weekend movie!!
Good evening little Owlettes,
lynnd, I woke up a about an hour ago with a headache too. Guess it serves me right, taking a nap this time of the evening.
The wine and the margaritas sure sound good about now.
lol at goldie not wanting to be the cause of the Popes demise.
turtle, Isn't you mom in Illinois?
I saw that it was pretty bad up there with all that snow.
iteach, the room with butterflies sounds sweet.
joDI, how are you?
There's nothing on television, and I'm a little tired of Rachel Rays travels. Actually a little tired of Rachel Ray.
hi vig, I like WOO too. It was those monkeys thjat scared me, along with that witch.
OMG...where's joey?
THAT
OMG you guys. Are you telling me the butterflies were my Aunt Carol, Carol's Aunt Jo, LynnD's Aunt Joyce, Jodi's Aunt Karen, and their friends? If so, what a beautiful image and I am honored that they chose to visit me. Not sure I'll ever see butterflies again without thinking of all of you.
The Sound of Music starts here in under an hour. (On FAMily Channel, VIG--do you have it?) I discovered I no longer have TCM, so no Wizard for me. I would have enjoyed 'The Secret Garden' after. Another favorite memory book. Titanic is on tonight, too. Feast or famine TV!
I wish I could share the evening sun that's starting to stream in right now. Enough with the snow already!!! I smell barbecues firing up and hear after-work lawn-mowing going on all around me. Hey, look on the bright side, tundra dwellers. You don't have to mow and fertilize snow! I know, that was a stretch...just trying to cheer you up :o).
I just signed onto to my myspace, and wow, you guys are amazing, all the wonderful comments and msg I received are just beautiful...
I will thank each of you personally, it might take me a couple of days but I will!
VIG - as a child, I could NOT watch the Wizard of Oz and I still to this day have not seen the movie in it's entirety (hoping I spelled that correctly) - when the neighbor(wicked witch) comes to take Toto away on her bike in the little basket and that scary music would start - I would run into another room.. (just ask IBB) -
I'll have to look for the Sound of Music on one of our channels - LOVED that movie!!!
Goldie - I guess since you didn't get 12 inches, you'll just have to settle for 6 twice!! :-)
Lynn D - sorry you have a headache - it sucks to be sick..
Jodi - get some rest and drive safely to work ...
Ronnie...I agree...the monkeys and Rachel Ray...both in the not so good category with the witch!!!
Carol:
No need..... but I only speak for myself. Concentrate on you and your family, and have a glass of wine and toast Aunt Jo~
lol, vig. Those were some ugly monkeys, all squatting down and running and hopping. YUK
Bono - thanks - it is the family channel and it comes on at 7pm - it will be fun to watch a movie with you again tonight!!
:-)
I do have to warn you - I think I can really sing during this movie - especially "Climb Every Mountain" - you have been forewarned!! :-)
Carol - I agree with K'girl -

Hi Carol, I know it's been a tough day for you and your family. Take care of yourself, and cherish all your memories.
turtle and the others getting plenty of inches:
When in the hell am I gonna get 7 inches!?! ROFLMAO
Mek: It is scary how much we think alike...I thought the same thing about why she was craving tacos;the QOTD! We're going tomorrow afternoon after our day of bargains!:)
I'm sleepy!:(
Thank you turtle we did just that tonite!
See, I kne joey was around, somewhere.
Ronnie talked me up! haha
Mek deserves a "marching award"! You're GOOD girl:)
joey
On your next weekend getaway!!
Knew!
ronnie
Hello and Thanks :O)
mek
Funny how you remember how scared you were watching the wizard of oz as a child. Some things do leave a lasting impression!
I meant to say what a beautiful butterfly story!:)
Ronnie: You did NOT diss my girl Rachael Ray!?!
LOL
Actually as much as I love her...I'm becoming tired of her!haha
mek
Just saw your comment, Thanks :O)
LMAO@Carol! Why yes, our sexth, I mean sixth visit! haha
And that would be 7.5;)ROFLMAO!
Oh and Carol, it's been one month tomorrow since he's been here!:(
Seems like 3 months LOL
ROFLMAO@ronnie correcting herself:)love it!
joey,
I'm afraid I did. I used to like her, though.
Joey
Thats ok, it will just make the
reunion more special ;O)
hehe Ronnie
Carol, you're so right about that! The last visit, I waited 2 full months until he got here on 2/22! It was our BEST one out of the 5!:)
Goodnite Owlettes!
I can't hang any longer..plus my Aunt wants us to get up rather early and the more I look at this screen, the more my eyes burn lol
Oh and the other reason it'll be more special Carol, is because with his new job out of state, we don't even talk as much as we once did! I hate it!!:(
So looking forward to April 20ish! HAHA..Sure hope it's before April is out!
Y'all have fun!
oh and that April date, spring will surely have SPRUNG!:)hehe
Nite!
Good Nite joey Sleep Well!
joey
LOL....
Bono...I often find when I am out for a walk, if I think about my Mom, almost every time, very soon a butterfly comes by. A coincidence....maybe... but one that ALWAYS makes me feel better! I like to think that as amazing and beautiful as she was on this planet, her spirit has been transformed into something amazing and beautiful. As soon as I read what you wrote about the butterflies flying near you, I thought it must be your aunt coming close to let you know she is okay. Glad it made you feel springlike and happy!
And thanks, I checked the Family channel here...no SOM,but maybe it's on later...so boo hoo, for now it's WOO!
MEK...Hope you are feeling better! You're right that is the worst part..when she takes Toto - and that laugh is bad too. I think that actresses name is Margaret Hamilton and in the 70's or 80's, she was in a coffee commercial, and she still freaked me out....she looked so witchy!
Good night, joey.
I have to work on tomorrows blog, and then I am off to bed.
Hope everyone has a great nite..
Please remember, blog's are always welcomed, You have been hearing from me as I have not received any blog's from you dear owls....
So if anyone, feels like writing, please do so...
And I can surely use the help!
Thanks....
Nite....
Good night, Carol. I know you must be worn out.
Sleep well.

Good night, Carol. Sleep well!
I think I'm going to call it a night too. Good night vig, and everyone.
Oh, vig, I didn't mean to leave you all alone. I'm sorry.
vig, If you're going to watch WOO. just cover your eyes at the 'bad' parts. Good night.
Good night Ronnie!
I just made chocolate chip cookies, does anyone want one?
Turtle-I hope your mom doesn't have to shovel all that snow. We still have nothing.
Carol, Mary has a wonderful idea for a post, she just needs a little nudging. :)
Evening hugs, Carol. Bet you rest better tonight.
Ronnie~~Keep missing you here. Great night to you!
MEK~~I'll be singing "I am sixteen, going on seventeen" if I watch. Got some other activities going on here, so may just have it in the background.
I never am able to figure out why MOST childrens' movies are so scary. Witches (Hansel & Gretel was my first movie), monsters, parents murdered or threatened (Bambi, Lion King, Nemo, etc.)
iTeach~~I'm still gathering :o)
Glynis~~Keep getting better!
IBB~~Smile?
try to bbl. If not, hugs all around!

Mr. Mek said I must be REALLY sick, if I didn't go to Michael's today - then asked me if I had enough paper!! LOL -
Wizard of OZ is even scary with your eyes closed!!! Just the music and the wicked laugh!!!! oh my..

Follow the Yellow Brick Road!!
Okay really turning off laptop!
*drumroll*
