Jodi said...

TURTLE - What heater?!!? And it's only 11 here!!!

kahonugrl said...

I have lost my tan, every finger nail has cracked, I have gone thru almost an entire tube of chapstick (cherry flavored of course) and an entire bottle of lotion...my body is screaming for Hawaii

night.owls.sb said...

Oh my, this nest is just a hoppin..

I had a great time 2nite, it was so very good to be with my family, we were all together and it was so very sweet...

MEK in AZ said...

MEK in AZ said...

k'girl - but doesn't that crisp air feel WONDERFUL in your lungs??!

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle:
I can even imagine how cold you must be, your body is just so used to the warm weather...

It is 19degrees here 2nite...

Freezin!

:O)

night.owls.sb said...

Mek:
Thats what its all about..

Tedious is the way to go in 2009!

Dianne/Denver said...

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!! I hope the new 2009 brings all of us health, peace and wealth (may as well throw that in too).

We did stay up. We went to dinner with some friends (3 couples) and came home and had our Christmas since my husband was gone on Christmas. We toasted in the new year...me with gatorade and MR D with chocolate milk! We did have one marg at dinner.

It's fun to see it turn midnight at each time zone around the world and on the blog! Only 1/2 hour for you West Coast Owls.

Just_Lin said...

Oh, my! I just saw Dick Clark. I remember in fourth grade rushing home from school so I could watch American Bandstand. It was filmed in Philadelphia in those days. Arlene and Frankie and Bob and Justine were the premier dancers.

MEK in AZ said...

Jodi - congrats on 200!!

J/l - you gave her a good run for the money!!

Jodi - thanks for hanging on the phone while I checked out the bad goings on in the front yard...

Jodi said...

DIANNE!!! Happy New Year!!!

Dianne/Denver said...

Can you all believe it....it is 48 here in Denver. You barely needed a coat tonight and no wind for a change. We have lucked out for the holiday weather here.

MEK: Have you seen any of the coverage on Shanahan and Bowlen today? It is kind of sad.

night.owls.sb said...

JodiHO!

I did not get the Group Happy New Year. My mom's brother passed about 6pm and I wanted to be with her at midnight.. But I did get some videos of my nephews being silly...

:O)

Jodi said...

Hmmmmm....JUST SLIN - That must have been before my time!!! :P

MEK in AZ said...

j/l - doesn't he sound terrible - very sad - i used to watch Band Stand ALL the time...

cpgem - :-)

Just_Lin said...

Dianne Happy New Year!!

Jodi said...

CAROL - My sympathies to your family. But on the upside...can't w8t to see the video of The Italian Stallions!!

MEK in AZ said...

Dianne - Happy New Year!!! we don't need a coat either!! LOL

I have no witnessed any of the news conference clips yet - but from what I have read - it was very emotional for both of them. as they are GOOD friends..... I'm sure it was a very hard decision to make.........

night.owls.sb said...

Oh my, I think Dick Clark looked awful, I felt so bad for him. My dad said he should not be on TV anymore.. I kinda agreed with him, it is just so sad to see him that way..

night.owls.sb said...

JodiHO!
Thank you! we are all ok.. :O)

MEK in AZ said...

cpgem - I am so sorry for your loss... my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family!!

MEK in AZ said...

Jodi Way before your time, the late 50s.

MEK Time for Dick to retire, IMHO.

night.owls.sb said...

MEK in AZ said...

Dianne/Denver said...

Happy New Year JODI, JUSTLIN, MEK, CAROL AND anyone else that is up and celebrating.

TINA...you had better be in bed asleep. Remember our bet is on the honor system.

CAROL: I am sending out my sympathy to your family in the loss of your uncle.

night.owls.sb said...

I am jealous of the warm weather owls...

19 degrees is really hard to take...

Brrrrrrrrrr

Just_Lin said...

MEK You've been a super marcher tonight. Congrats!

Jodi said...

JUST SLIN - I agree....but it's hard not to think of him as one of the kids. He looked, what, about 30 in the 80's?!!?

night.owls.sb said...

Mek:
Exactly! I felt the same way!

night.owls.sb said...

Dianne:
Thank You!

night.owls.sb said...

Just_Lin said...

MEK I believe the show is a Dick Clark Production so he probably insisted on being on it.

MEK in AZ said...

with all this marching - my back will surely be KILLING me in the a.m.

MEK in AZ said...

poor Hodi - missed out on a march - geez. I should have called you back!! LOL

kahonugrl said...

MO...if you are reading this coming year will be the best yet!!!!

Just_Lin said...

Turtle Congrats on the first 269 of 2009!

Carol I had a New Year song forwarded to your email. Did you get it?

MEK in AZ said...

j/l - but somebody should just TELL him that it's better to be BEHIND the camera.......

Bebbilane said...

Happy New Year Everyone!

MEK in AZ said...

K'girl - LOVE flannel jammies..

MEK in AZ said...

Bebbi - happy new year!!!

Just_Lin said...

Turtle Flannel jammie pants may not be sexy but they sound cozy. :) and warm. :D

Bebbilane said...

Carol: Sorry for your loss. Also, I agree with your Dad, it is hard to see Dick Clark like that. It makes me cry every year.

Jodi said...

BEBBI!! How many steps for the New Year?!!?

Bebbilane said...

Thanks Mek, You too!

MEK in AZ said...

OMy - this singer has her eye make up clear across her face like a uni-brow...... bright yellow eyeshadow......

didn't she look in a mirror first.

kids these days........

Just_Lin said...

Hey Bebbi! Happy New Year!

Bebbilane said...

Well, I am off to find my sexy flannel Owl PJs and get into the down comforter and shiver till I fall asleep. Good night all..or good morning actually! Sweet Dreams

kahonugrl said...

Ya know I think it is sad but also great that he did the show. That man was not predicted to live, and he does what he can. Mentally he is as sharp as a tack and he pushes on. I think it teaches the youngins alot about persistance, tolerance, and compassion.

Can you imagine what it is like for him? I say kudos!!!!

MEK in AZ said...

YES - doing the 3oo HAPPY DANCE

Bebbilane said...

Haha..Mek, did you see Kelly Pickler? She looked like a young Tammy Fay, somebunny needed to tell that chile she put on too much makeup..maybe her makeup artist was sick??/...

Jodi said...

MEK - Oh, sure....I do all the work and then get FOADED!!! Congrats on 300!!!

night.owls.sb said...

J/L:
I did not check my e-mail as of yet, but I shall in a bit..

Bebbi:
Thank You

Turtle:
I think flannel jammies are perfect!
Especially in Chicago! :O)

MEK in AZ said...

jodi - sorry that I slipped in there.

Jodi said...

Good night BEBBI!

Bebbilane said...

k-girl, I agree..Kudos to him. It just makes me sad. Mr. Bebbi looks at me like I am nuts but I always cry every year.

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle:
Yes I thought of that as well, so my feelings are def mixed..

I see you got 269.. :O)

MEK in AZ said...

jodi - had to get you back for the 200!!
:-)

MEK in AZ said...

Bebbilane said...

Happy New Year Jodi and goodnight..for real. maybe.

Jodi said...

kahonugrl said...

Lani is sick with a cold and probably in bed and supposedly the Utah Ho is in bed too, due to a bet.

Jodi said...

TURTLE - She has to work early, so she's in bed!!!

kahonugrl said...

Go moi moi JodiHO, good nite MEK.

Just_Lin said...

Good night MEK and Jodi!

Carol There seems to have been some $10 bet between Tina and Dianne that Tina would be in bed by 10 o'clock.

Dianne/Denver said...

HAPPY NEW YEAR WEST COASTERS!!!

Hi TURTLE...When do you go back to warm Hawaii? You are making me cold just reading how cold you are this week.

Our little owl in Utah better be in bed fast asleep!! She has work tomorrow and assured me she would not be up to see midnight...that would be a first for her!

I think I will head off to bed now. Christmas present opening was fun tonight.

Good Night all and again Happy New Year to Everyone!

P.S. TINA, CAROL AND JODI...I had a note from TINK tonight and she asked me to tell you thank you and that she received her cards in today's mail.

night.owls.sb said...

J/L,
That is just to funny...

Turtle,
Tinaho sleeping on the coach...

LOL

kahonugrl said...

Dianne in balmy Denver...

I return to warm Hawaii on the 6th

night.owls.sb said...

Dianne:
Good nite, and thanks for sharing the msg from Tinka...

kahonugrl said...

I'm tellin ya....she may be sleeping but she ain't in the bed upstairs....she is in a recliner, on a couch, or downstairs.

night.owls.sb said...

Happy New Year to Vig in sunny Mexico..

Miss ya!

Just_Lin said...

Happy New Year to everyone. I'm going to start shutting down now. I wish all of you a fantastic 2009 with good health and good times.

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle,
I am sure you are right, she probably was crocheting and fell asleep.. :O)

night.owls.sb said...

J/L
Good nite...;

kahonugrl said...

kahonugrl said...

kahonugrl said...

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle:
Good nite to you as well.. Sweet Dreams..

I am off to bed...

See ya all tomorrow..

:O)

Dianne/Denver said...

TINA better be in bed sleeping. I bet her that she would still be up at midnight (she always is) and she said she would be in bed asleep. I had to put some provisions in the bet like she couldn't be on the computer in bed or on the phone...actually in bed sleeping. I then reminded her that if she wasn't truthful she would have to confess it. I know I can trust her.

kahonugrl said...

ok now I can go change into the flannel jammies...

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle:
My dear one, you are on a roll...

Congrats on 369!

kahonugrl said...

Nite Carol, Nite J/Lin, Nite Dianne, Nite Bebbi and anyone else lurking.

May 2009 be devine for all.

night.owls.sb said...

Turtle:
You forgot Jim Bob and Jon Boy..

night.owls.sb said...

J/L:
That song you sent me was great! Thanks ever so much!

:O)

night.owls.sb said...

Ok, I am really heading to bed now..

It was fun sharing the start of the new year with all of you...

You are all so very special...

Thank You all, for just being you!

Nite..
