This Night Owl Blog has given so much! It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"! We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly. And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :) It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!

Summer, and no good TV!
i do love the summer, i really do!
however there is one thing, and only
one, that i don't like about it,
there is nothing on TV!
i miss my shows, they keep me company,
they give me something to look forward
to on certain nights, its like i know all the
people on the shows, and enjoy a visit
with them each week, and then "poof they
are gone" leaving me in the lurch
it was so fun watching American Idol
routing for a winner, seeing the winner
and then "poof, gone" just like that!
my dear grey's, gone!
so now i find myself, looking for things
to do at night, grasping the air, flipping
the channels, reading book after book,
and watching videos on you tube!
when i was younger i so looked forward
to summer, as it was a time of no school
and playtime had no end
now, its just, well, summer is here!
nothing on TV
how age changes everything!
in my travels on you tube i found
this video and immediately smiled
i hope you enjoy as well!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 322 of 322I did it!
The kids are at grandma's house.
My hubby went to the store, but he is home.
I need to look busy, I will be back later!
:)
Iteach:
You did it Congrats on 200!
I pooped out :O)
Barbwa:
"You have been outted" LOL....
Thanks for sending be your pic, you are a amazing owl!
Carol, thanks for the compliment. I think it just sometimes helps to tell your story so that others know it can work out in a divorce with a child...just takes a lot of lip biting.
Ok Owls: I went back to the dr and I still have pneumonia and am coughing, etc., again. Needless to say, yesterday was not a very cheery day for me. I had to get all the meds again that I was in while in the hospital and my primary asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital or try outpatiet. Hell, I would rather do outpatient just to have my own doctor..although, the room service menu meals were a temptation.
I am going to try and bring my lap top in bed like K-GIRL does and hope I don't get burned so I can post as well as read. I am still on oxygen and doing nothing!! Not good for a busy owl. :(
TINK AND ZONA: Bad news....the rain ended up in Denver...sorry Zona...I love it.
Carol....I LOVE the summer tv season! It's when I get to catch up on all I missed during the tv year. I will sit and watch a whole season of something at once. Last summer I watch all the episodes of 24. I just finished Without a Trace and am trying to finish Lost. AND I can't wait for The Closer! Plus I have my NASCAR race each week! I just get so behind during the year because of all the shows i tape~
LynnD~ you have great taste in TV~!
HoJo~ congrats on 1st~
Whabbear~ you write it....i'd blush~
Zona~ smack back~
I was planning on going to SoCal on Saturday with my daughter in tow......now it looks like the whole damn family is going! No one is packed.....and my washer is broken....do you think mom will mind if i bring my dirty laundry? :)~
kgrl~ mwah~
I just got up to check on the "Girl of the Night" and it was Barb in Wa. I guess I did cheat when I looked at her pictures because I had no idea up until then.
Dianne - I am glad you are enjoying the rain I sent Zona. Some of it stayed behind and I am so sick of it. Please get better fast. I am sending all my prayers and positive energy your way.
Zona - Dear sweet daughter of mine. You will always be the innocent teenager I remember seeing in your picture yesterday. Please go to bed early.
VIG - Pleasant dreams my dear. Miss you so much.
Good Night to all my other feathered friends.
Love, Tinka
Have I told you guys how nervous I get when I fly?
Very nervous!
Miss Tink: I hope I have the weekend to finish my assignment! ; )
Dianne: I am SO sorry to hear you are still so sick! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers! Just get plenty of rest!
I'm off to bed....
Night everyone! I have to get some sleep so I can work on my homework tomorrow for Miss Tink!
don't be nervous, iteach....unless of course you are flying into LAX!~
Iteach: I pray you have a safe flight and you and hubby have a great time! Enjoy each moment!
I pray more on a plane then I do the whole year.
Seriously!
I'm glad I'm going with hubby. Strangers hate it when I ask them to hold my hand.
ITEACH: I always take my rosary.
TINKA: Good night..sweet dreams!
TINA: No smacking back allowed..;)
OH....sorry zona~ i didn't know the rules!
does anyone know if want is sleeping?
Well I took care of all my phobias before flying.
I bought new underwear today to fly in. I don't want to die in old underwear.
I have my eyebrows waxed, so I die looking happy.
I cleaned my shower, so no one will see how dirty it looks.
TINA: Well..all right then..you don't want me to have to call my cousins the cops do you?? ;)
ITEACH: You aren't going to die...
Zona- I don't have a rosary!
Can you believe it?
I bought a really nice expensive one for my husband when we got married. I was hoping that he would get the hint, but he didn't.
I really wanted from him, but I don't want to ask.
I think rosaries come from the heart and soul. I don't want him to go buy me one, because I asked him too.
I know weird!
Just finished watching the top twenty selected for so you think you can dance..
the chick with the ODD implants actually made it thru - i didn't think she was very good - so what do I know!! LOL
Iteach- safe flying tomorrow!!
Barb in WA - the reason why i didn't think it was you - was the black and white - made it look like it was BEFORE your time!!
:-)
Dianne in Denver - sorry to hear that you are STILL sick!! get well soon!!
Now - I'm going to watch the Next Food Network star!! It's a rerun from Sunday -but I missed that.. (it's already boring!!!)
have a kitty that needs some attention..
be back later...
ITEACH: Sometimes you have to spell these things out...
MEK: I have a kitty that needs attention too...;)
Enjoy your show!
Zona- I'm going too!
Diane, I'm so sorry about round two with the meds.
222
OMG Zona! I didn't know you had a cat!
Iteach: I have SEVERAL rosaries! I will be happy to give you one! (You can still say a rosary without one...you have ten fingers...just say a Hail Mary on each one, and then an Our Father between each ten!)
You will have a safe flight and a LOT of fun! I just know it!
Be sure to call me when you get home (then we need to plan on meeting Jodie and Goldie this summer)!
Night everyone....I really will go to bed now!
Good night Jennifer!!!
No I'm not sleeping. I'm getting ready for the Heart concert in Hawaii.
Want- You can borrow my broom to get to Hawaii.
However, I need it back on Tues., because that is when Aunt Flo is coming to visit.
TINA: I don't, I'm allergic...;)
ITEACH: It'll be fine...
Night JENNIFER!
Hi WANT! I missed that Heart concert, but BARB/WA told me they'll be here in October...tickets go on sale Monday!!
Maybe I just better use my frequent flier miles Iteach ! lol
Woo hoo Zona !
Oh, Zona, now I know what you mean by kitty.
Okay, I am going to pack. We are suppose to leave in five hours.
ITEACH: ;) Meow...
WANT: JOURNEY and CHEAP TRICK too!! Mr. Z loves all three!
Hey, Hey, everyone! I am back from Phantom and it was great.
So much activity here today. I had no idea the grad picture was Barbwa. Very pretty missy.
MEK: I made more of a mess 'cleaning' and shredding. Now I have to clean that mess up.
Dianne: I do still watch Days and I kinda like the John storyline too. I don't want them to make him a complete villain though. I am so sorry you are still sick. Can't they give you something stronger to kick this thing?
Bon'O: Congrats to your daughter on her wedding. I hope the weather holds out for the event. Are you going to NC?
Bear: So do you have a date for the nuptials yet??
K-Girl: e concert will be over by the time you read this, so I hope you had a good time. Did Want and Zona get there in time?
Iteach: Are you packed yet? It should be around midnight-thirty where you are.
Waving a wing at all the other Owls.
Zona, I got to see them at one of the state fairs a few yearss ago and Styx, I think ! Fun....
Are we really sure that was Babs (clap clap) in WA?
I'm glad you had a great time Barb!
It is 11:49 here. I'm almost packed!
I will sleep on the ride to the airport (2hour drive).
If I take enough drugs I will probably sleep on the airplane too.
Cheap Trick is from Rockford which is one hour from me.
Pince is from Minneapolis, 20 minutes from me. lol
Just sayin'
make that Prince
Want....That was totally me (toot toot)!!!
MEK...we had our yearbook portraits in black & white. Everyone was pissed about it. There was color in the book for the sports pages though. Go figure. Guess it was more important to high light that lovely Purple and Gold!
Great picture Babs! I was trying to be Matlock and guessed it was an early 70's picture. Wrong!
SacBarb: Yep! October 4th! :)
iteach: A broom makes a poor sanitary napkin!
Hello, Sleep!
Dianne: I'm delighted you're back posting!
My Bear Buddy !

Jennifer~ I just finished paying my bills. TG I can do it all online for the whole month.
Kgirl~ I love Heart. I sing "All I Wanna Do" at Karaoke. Kinda "horny" song lol!!
Tina & iteach, get packin'. I should talk! I'll be gone 2 wks and still not packed!
Diane~ nasty pneumonia! My sweet 5 yr old great niece has it in one of her lungs.
iteach~ I need a good mystery book to take to Europe with me. I told my niece to go out with her friends
at night in Paris and leave pooped Auntie Mary at hotel to rest. I love mystery & Biographies.
Who is Jaimie?
I am Jamie LOL! I was panicing thinking I lost my post. Jaimie is my niece. She was using my computer and didn't sign out of gmail.
I was about ready to go to bed!
Your post was a mystery and a biography!
You got me good!
ITEACH~LMAO, sorry
Mary: Was that a test for all of us? To see if we noticed a stranger?
Bear: Yay!! Congrats!! **clap clap**
Iteach: Have a great time in LA
Good night Mary, sleep tight!
Thank you Barb!
Bear, I'm so happy for you!
MARY/MI: Dang we guard our nest well!! I just checked in and I wondered too!

WHABBEAR: YIPPEE!!!
ITEACH: Are you calmed down now about the flight??
LOL Mary~ that Jamie reeked of YOU!!! Karaoke.....hello~ :)~ when do you leave?
Hey Zona: My day was great and I was lost in the magic of the night. How was your day?
SacBarb~ All of you passed the Miss Marple test lol!
I wasn't picked for jury duty this morning. Just as well, I saw the look on the kids face and knew I would say not guilty! He looked so upset. He didn't look much over 16 or 17. I didn't stick around to see how his trial went. Either way I have a feeling he won't be back in court again!
Tina, we leave on the 11th.
SacBarb~ I am slow tonight.."lost in the music of the night" I love, love love that song!
I am heading to bed. I will leave the 269er to someone else :+)
