I wonder at times, how much the heart can hold, there is so much we ask our heart to do. From giving us life, to holding our loved ones, to keeping our memories alive. When it is quiet, I try to hear the beat, and sometimes I think I can hear it, and when I do, I realize it is the center of my being. I picture my heart to be very big, and warming, I am grateful for a warming heart as I think it brings me so much joy.
With a warm heart, life can be a treasure. It allows me to give of myself without asking anything in return. My memories that are all stored in my heart, bring me such comfort at times of need. The feelings that I have for my friends, family, all come from my heart.
The heart can also sustain the hurt, and when it does hurt you can actually feel it. It knows how, when ready to put the hurt deep within, so it is not always in the forefront. And when the hurt surfaces once more, the heart is there to comfort, with every beat.
It is in amazement to me, how one can have a cold heart, but truth be told, there are many who do. Some can turn away in a instant, without looking back, as the feelings of a warm heart just don't exist. I have encountered this in my life, and each time, I just can't comprehend why.
My heart holds so much that is dear to me, it harbors all my thoughts, secrets, loves and pleasures. It is good to have a warm heart, and as long as mine is beating, it will warm me forever.

Whoa! LynnD and Scirish must be sleeping in!
3rd for MO....
Congrats on first, Sandie! Oh, that's me!
Carol, you obviously have a warm, big heart. I, too, look for the kind heart in people as I always expect to find it. It's hard to understand when I don't find it. But, I do think most people have kind hearts.
Tinka, I hope we see you today because that would mean you're feeling better! Hugs to you.
I have a woman here cleaning my bathrooms and floors! I didn't even tell my hubby. He's going to think I've been really busy today! hee hee
Hi IBB! Are you feeling a bit better today? I know yesterday was hard for you.
Sandie:
Congrats on First....
and
You made QOTD.. So funny, I did not see that yesterday..
Morning..
IBB,Sandie, and me.. :O)
Good Morning!!
CPGEM: Eventhough my heart is very fragile, I wear it on my sleeve...and thus everyone seems to know just how I feel. I've tried, over time to guard my heart...sometimes I can, most times I cannot. For that reason, it is easily broken. But you're right, the heart is amazing...for with a little love and understanding..a broken heart will mend. I often listen with my heart, instead of my head. This usually gets me in trouble, because it makes me too sensitive. I've tried to be tougher..but can't quite figure out how. Seems this is the only way I know how to be...so this is the way I'm destined to stay.
Great blog today CPGEM..thank you.
Off to work..
Busy day.. Dr's appt at 12, then at 1:30 appt with life insurance guy, which just happens to be Vincent.. Yep he got a big man job.. Oy vey..
:O)
Sandie:
Yes I agree, I think most do, which is certainly a good thing.. Its the ones that don't who scare the crap out of me..
Morning... Zonaaaaaa!!!!!!
Please tell Tinka I am thinking of her and wishing her well when you speak with her...
I miss her..
Zona,
Once you have a warm heart it is usually destine to stay that way..
So right.. ♥♥♥
Crap.. I gotta go to work...
Phones ringing,...
see ya all later...
Mek:
2nite.. AMERICAN IDOL... and so it begins.. Fun...
SANDIE: Congrats on FIRST!! I think if you are looking for warm, kind hearted people..this blog is the place to be.
IBB: Your blog on MS was beautiful. Big {{hugs}} to you today.
CPGEM: Big hearted, warm hearted, kind hearted...they all describe you. :)
Morning Glories!
Sandie got first! Yay!
Hi IBB and Carol!
"It is in amazement to me, how one can have a cold heart, but truth be told, there are many who do. Some can turn away in a instant, without looking back, as the feelings of a warm heart just don't exist. I have encountered this in my life, and each time, I just can't comprehend why."
Carol this paragraph resonated with me. I think for some people it is a defense mechanism and some just are cold people who think only of themselves. Sad but true. I always wonder if this is learned or a trait that they are born with?
I think I have a big heart sometimes so much so I have to guard against letting everything in and through. As this can cause great heartache and has at times affected my health and well being.
A heartfelt Good Morning to all!
Good Morning Zona! Was posting while you were.
Hi Carol! Wow, QOTD, too! Maybe I should play the lottery today!!
Zona, I'm a lot like you. I've just decided to embrace my sensitivity because I can't change it. It's okay--it makes you who you are and that's why we all love you!
CPGEM: I'll tell Tinka for you. I'm going to watch AI this season...just to see what all the excitement is about. I may have to skip the very beginning as I tend to feel uncomfortable listening to the really bad singers. I feel so awful for them.
Hi LynnD! I wonder that, too--if it's learned or an innate trait. An innate hate trait. Try saying that three times.
Okay, I'm on my nerves. I think I'm just giddy over someone else cleaning my bathrooms.
BBL!
Good Morning LYNND! You do have a big heart..you ol' softy you! :)
Good Morning Sandie,Susan,Carol & Zona,Lynn & MEK!
Carol~~Without even trying, you started my day with a song: HEART
:-)
Happy Tuesday!!!
Good Morning........
Sandie - congrats on FIRST!!! Love that you have cleaning people and DIDN'T tell Mr. Sandie!! You go girl!!!
IBB - hope you are doing well today - thought about you ALL day yesterday - time got away - cuz I was going to call!! sorry!!
Zona - (((HUGS)))
Lynn - I agree with you about our hearts affectingly our health and well being!!
cpgem - YES, American Idol starts tonight - I can't wait!! I heard that they are going to really concentrate on the GOOD auditions this year - we'll see- I saw a clip of the new judge - and she appears to be a female Simon - gotta love it!!
howdy - Bono - you landed while I was typing!!
Good Morning Hooters!
Congrats on 1st Sandie- and on having someone else clean your bathrooms and floors!
Carol- there is no doubt that you have a big heart. I think that everyone who is member of this nest does too.
Zona- I KNOW how big your heart is...
Another crappy start to the day today and I could eat the asshole out of a rhino. PMS and the frigid cold. Why is it that people can not just be friendly to others? Cold hearts I guess.
Today I start at Curves. Wish me luck. I did the orientation, now it is time to get my ass on those machines and work it baby!!
25!!
cpgem - Love your blog today!!
The heartbeat of a newborn on your chest - beating against your own is a feeling that I just can't explain......
I felt that for the first time when i met my new nephew.....
AMAZING............
LOL - Goldie - I just saw my post hit 26 and I thought..
OH - I hope Goldie got 25 - and there you are!!!!!!!!!!
Love ya...
Hi to Lynn, IBB, MEK, Bon Bon, Zona and Sandie and Carol!!!
Goldie - I wouldn't suggest eating rhino ass if you are starting curves today!!!
:-)
hope your day gets better....
30 for tinka
MEK- YEah for 25 an 26!
I agree- there is nothing like the feel of a newborns heartbeat against your chest. It is magical and so very calming.
I think eating the asshole out of rhino is like eating donut holes. Not the same amount of calories as eating the whole ass!!!
ok- now I really have to get back to work and the cranky people who are irrating me today. BBL- have a good day!
I just got FOAD!!!!!!!
Donut holes - TOO FUNNY!!
now - you have me craving donuts!!
Okay -
I am going to go meet my friends for a reschedule of our scrap and lunch fun day....
Got some cards to make........
I hope everyone has an excellent day!!
:-)
CRAP - Biggest Loser and Idol are on at the SAME time!!!!!!!
double crap!!!!!!
Goldie~~I adore you! You snuck in while I was typing the following, saw you here...your humor gets me EVERY time.
I'd have been here sooner, but got distracted by emails, including Amazon.com's specials on New Year's fitness products. I feel so naive and uninformed.....
"BOOTY SWEAT"? "PIMPJUICE"?? People can actually drink stuff with those names? Guess if I was more fit and spent more time in the Energy Drink aisle, I'd be more informed (or if I'd seen the movie Tropic Thunder)!
It's a little early in the day to read a 'satisfied customer' review of Booty Sweat, so...next post.
Morning Owls!!
Congrats on first Sandie..AND you have a woman cleaning your floors and bathrooms???? Heaven!
The thing I find amazing about the heart is that it can physically hurt when you are in emotional pain. I wonder why that is?
I have read of instances where someone has a heart transplant and has taken on some of the characteristics, likes and dislikes of the person they received the heart from. Again, amazing! Doctors and scientists have not been able to explain this phenomenon as the person that received the heart had no knowledge of the donor. It makes me think that the heart is more than just an organ, but what exactly IS it?
Review from Amazon.com customer:
"Ah, Booty Sweat. A name which invokes feelings of delight and wonder. From the first *kssk* of opening the can to the last drop that slides seductively but insistently down your throat, you'll be gripped in jittery rapture. Refreshing and yet dank, tart and yet... tart. After experiencing the crisp sweet and salty flavor you'll see why this drink is favored 10 to 1 on the set of every major (adult) motion picture. Bottled at the source (Newark, NJ) this drink is guaranteed to pack all that rank flavor that your life of shame has led you to love. Booty Sweat! Its Poppin!"
Bon.....OMG!!! LMAO!!! EWWWW
Gotta run, but HI SCIRISH!!! I've heard those stories and wondered the same~~Part of my spiritual quest to understand what it's all about.
GOLDIE: Okaaaaay then...lol...I hope your day gets better so that you won't feel like partaking in a bite of rhino ass... ;)
MEK: Oh good..if they show good auditions, I won't have to miss any of AI!!
BON'O: I second SCIRISH...ewwwww!! Those energy drinks make my heart beat so dang fast..and I always feel like I'm having a hotflash!
G'Morning SCIRISH my Ratpack buddy!! :)
Goldie: LOL! I know you have a big heart, because even when you're in dire straits, you're always willing to commit an unselfish act in the service of others.
Case in point: This morning. You said:
"Another crappy start to the day today and I could eat the asshole out of a rhino".
For some rhino's, that would be the sexual experience of their lives!
Carol: Loved the blog, especially the part about the heart being able to put the hurt aside. So true!
DIANNE: I'm almost done...will finish tonight..I'm pooped. Oh, and it's a calendar..you goof!!
TINKA: Love you..miss you!! I hope you are feeling loads better today!
SACBARB: Do I need to send another video?? ;D
TINA: You still sparklin??? ;)
JODI: Hope you're staying warm!! I've got the room, just sayin'..
VIG: Waiting for pics of Ogopogo..I bought a frame ya know... ;)
Kay...I am off to bed. Everyone have a good day..and remember, trust your heart..it knows.
G'night!!!
G'morning BEAR!!
50 for TINKA!! SWAK!!
Good Morning My Lovely Owls.
I am being taken to the doctor this morning. I think I am getting better. It has been "vertigo" whereby every thing spins. This makes me sick. I have had it before so I have learned to stay still. I have so much to catch up on; blogs, anniversaries, messages and picture comments. Thanks to all of you and I will be back on as soon as the computer screen stops spinning.
Oh, Tink, I feel for you. I have episodic (best case, minutes--worst case, 3 months!)Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, aka BPPV. Not fun! With me, things don't spin. They shake violently side to side as if I were in a paint can shaker at the hardware store. Other than the Epley Maneuver, the ONLY thing that helps is to be perfectly still, eyes open. Take care, dear.
Good morning!
Sandie, congrats on 1st!! You are AMAZING!
A truly wonderful blog today Carol. I too think most people have a warm, kind, generous hearts.
Our hearts sure have a big job huh? Incredible joy and elation to incredible despair, it has to take on the gamut.
Zona, I am a lot like you, wearing the heart on the sleeve. But, I've had to learn to put it away at times.
Sometimes people (mainly family members) turn to me for strength, and even tho I feel like I am the one who needs the support, will tough it out and be the strong one.
What is really surprising to me is that I can do it and survive.
Yes, the heart is quite an incredible thing.
Whab, you again cracked me up! I didn't even consider Goldie's comment about the rhino in a sexual way!
Bono don't think Pimp Juice or Booty Sweat would make it past my lips. Yuck!
VIG thank you for the comment on Poe's new Youtube video! I have a couple more I may put up today!
Good morning to IBB, Goldie, Carol, Tink (feel better dear!), MEK, Lynn & Scrishy!
Sorry I was hit and Run this morning... but I got online then computer locked up and I had to go to work...had to stop at the post office to get stamps (for us to sell)....
I tell the customers.. " I stand in line at the Post Office so you don't have to."
So... Sandie...
Congrats on 1st...
Thank you... the day was difficult... but I got lots hugs... cyber and live...
I just can't believe it is a year...
Good day to....Carol, Zona,LynnD,
MEK,
BonO, Goldie,Whabby, Scirish, Tinka!!!!!
I am excited about Idol starting.. Ihope they stick to good auditions... I really get tired of the all the bad ones....
Goldie... you crack me up... and Whabby's take on things is just like no other...
hope everyone has a great day...
working so might be in and out!!!!
Bono...You really need to see the movie... Tropic thunder,...
I rented it and then thought WTF!!!!!
but if you can get past some of the stupid humor... it is pretty funny!!!!
it is how they grouped those three to do that PIPS routine on Idol finale last year...
EBJ... we were posting at the same time...
Morning...
well it is after noon here...
*&^%$$^&* now its 2- Rhinos!! And no sexual gratification for me at all. Geez......
I am going to lunch and then back to a hopefully better day at the office. I do luv you guys- you crack me up!
Tink- hope you are better soon!
Sandie~ congrats on first~
I don't have time to read the comments yet, have to hurry to get back to work, but wanted to say thank you, Carol, for a heart-warming blog~ Sometimes, like last night, when I lay in bed trying to fall asleep, I think of those who I love and smile~ Sometimes that feeling is so overwhelming~

CArol...hadn't commented on the blog...
I have one those great big ole hearts that i wear on my sleeve... it gets hurt alot like that... but I don't know how to be any other way...
I have been told I give "HEALING" hugs...
so I will not change...
and it amazes me how mean and heartless some people can be... i always say ...Karma...Karma ...Karma...
and it usually does come back to bite them....
I can't sleep...arrrrgggg!!! Sheesh..
TINA: I didn't look... ;)
GOLDIE: I'm sorry your day is kinda stinkin'...like those rhino's butts, I'll bet. ;)
Gonna try to sleep one more time..if I can't..I'll sure be loopy tonight! ;)
My heart contains my best answers in life. My mind contains a lot of facts, but that isn't where I find my answers. Do you ever have thoughts that literally start in you chest?
I think that mean spirited people just have walls around their hearts. I think when we look deep inside we will find a good soul that is hurting.
Oh brother...here I am commenting that if we look deep into someone we will find goodness, when the emerg.Alert came on with a child abduction. What goes on in the heart of a child abductor.
I came home for lunch and was met at the door by a totally giving heart. My dog Pepper aka pepperoni,pepsi,mildred,gladys kravitz and shithead.
Complete love and devotion which made my heart SING.
Lani- in answer to your questions- there just is no answer.
75!
I just realized I am still wearing my holiday hat. Better get that changed!
Good morning/afternoon Owls.
Carol, Thanks for the 'heart warming' blog. I know someone with a cold heart and I don't understand how this person can be so unfeeling. I think she is just so unhappy inside that she can't feel any other emotion. It's really sad. I pray for her a lot.
Sandie, congrats on #1. I want cleaning people. I'm having a sorority meeting at my house tonight and I haven't done much cleaning because I've been sick. Now I have to at least make this house presentable. I am going to clean the bathrooms and close all the bedroom doors.
Waving a wing at all the Owls here and all who land later. Gotta go clean a bathroom.
Sandie Good for you to beat out LynnD and Scirish today!
Carol Very timely blog for me today. It is too personal right now for me to comment on.
When we are babies, we have hearts that are open to everyone and everything. I think we have to be taught to close it up tight as a fist.
Just_Lin? I just want to reach through the computer and hug you!! Okay, I'm hugging you--can you feel it?? I hope you're okay.
SANDIE, you made me laugh first thing. You are absolutely giddy today.
BON are we going to see one of your beautiful photo displays of the body juice bar? That makes 2 giddy OWLS...what a good start to the day.
If ZONA doesn't get any sleep we may yet have a 3rd giddy OWL.
CAROL, thank you for your post today.
LYNN, I'm sure in the work you do it is easy to let to much in at times. Try closing your eyes and filling yourself up with sunlight and sending the pain away. You will keep your compassion, but not the pain of it.
I started this post about 1 hour ago and was then distracted ny Hillary's confirmation hearing.
I feel gooooood! Laundry's done, went to the gross-ry store, watched some lady clean my bathrooms and floors.
Lani, I am giddy today! Which reminds me of your first boyfriend -- giddy-up!
Sandie Thank you for the hug! LOL @ Lani's first boyfriend. I needed that laugh!
GOLDIE, I think you are right.
SACBARB, I think SANDIE just grabs people off the street to clean her bathrooms.
TINK, I do hope the doctor will give you something today to help your balance. I have had middle ear infections before and it is awful to lose one's balance.
EBJ, Being a Registered Nurse I think people immediately cling to you for support. You are a healer.
I have read everyone's posts so fast I am afraid I am leaving things out or getting them wrong. I am feeling guilty because I should be doing something in the house.
Sacbarb, I wish I lived near you so I could help you clean up for your company. Okay, well really I'd send this lady over.
You'll be fine tonight--no one really looks at anything but the toilet (is what I think). So, close your doors and enjoy your evening.
Lani, LOL!!! Actually, she rang my doorbell the other day and asked if she could clean for me. So I guess I did kind of grab her off the street!
Did someone call me?
SANDIE, I will clean your bathroom any day.
Yea!! It's Mr. Ed! Okay, Mr. Ed, you can lick my floors clean!!
Ewwww, horse tongues and hippo butts today.
oops, I meant rhino butts
I am a horse of course I will lick your floors.
Sandie Please don't confuse your rhino butts and hippo butts!
Hey Eddy! No kissing!
IBB, It is truly a gift to be told you give healing hugs.
SCIRISH, How is your tailbone?
Thanks, Eddy. I can see why Lani liked you so much.
J/L, I'm sorry. I should know the difference. After all, I have my own hippo butt.
J/L, I have been told I am quite the kisser.
It has been fun talking with all of you today. See you later.
Sandie, I pray that's all they care about. I have only cleaned one bathroom and I am exhausted already.
99
100
Yay for me. I'm glad that was a short march. I'm too tired to do a happy dance. Back to cleaning.
Be careful BARB, It is easy to relapse with this bug.
It is spring here in Pacifica. We need rain!
MEK, Have fun scrapbooking.
Hi to TINA, I hope you and your family are feeling a bit better.
LMAO at Hippo butts vs Rhino butts and really its a Horses Ass! Just kidding Eddy, but I couldn't resist!! :)
Ok, I changed my profile pic to one that Mr. Goldie took of me this morning.....
Goldie That's the way I still look!
Back from the doctor's and up from a nap. The doctor said it was vertigo and for me to rest. It has been a very busy few weeks. I will check in tomorrow. Have a great day. Love, Tinka
I haven't read the comments yet, but I just want to say to
CAROL...you have such a warm heart and a ginormous one as well. I can tell from every conversation we have ever had and message we have exchanged. You share that warmth freely with those who know you. I am honored to call you my friend.
IBB...LOL! Thanks for the 3rd!!
Ok, gonna read the comments...
...bbl!
GOLDIE...I think your post at 10:23 may just be the QOTD tomorrow! I almost choked when I read that!!!
LYNN, ZONA, MEK, GOLDIE, SANDIE, IBB...the warmth that eminates from your hearts can heat the entire universe! You may have Al Gore on your asses soon!!
Back to the comments...
BONO...omg, I missed seeing your post. You definitely fit in with the global warming heart brigade!
SCIRISH, EBJ, WHABBY and LANI...I feel the warmth of your heart in every post you make.
TINA...you try hard to be a crackwhore, but you are really just a big hearted softie.
SACBARB...Having read posts and emails from you for a pretty long while, there is no denying the warmth of your heart.
JUST LIN...Your heart seems to know few boundaries. You are one of the kindest people...and it shows.
SHIRLEY...you haven't posted, but I want to remind you that your heart is beautiful...as are you.
EDDY...it takes a big heart to lick the floors for people!! (who are you?)
I so appreciate ALL of you so much.
Gonna forage for some dinner and the watch A.I...yippeeeee!!!!
You all have the biggest sweetest, lovingly,syrupy, mushiest,
hearts that I have ever seen! Don't any of you ever change!!
Watching Idol....
sorry about the deleted post
My heart is loving American Idol.. How fun.. I did not realize how much I missed it...
Mo:
Each day you continue to amaze me, your words, your kindness, your smiles, your zest, your friendship! ♥♥♥
Off to read the rest of the comments..
Sandie,
Having ppl clean is def the way to go.. I don't like to clean my office.. I love when the cleaning ppl come, and my bathroom is all shiny... It def is the easy way out, but what the heck, we all have other things to do, like visit the nest..
:O)
Zona,
Right back attcha! ♥♥
Lynn,
I was thinking the same, is someone born with a cold heart,
or does it become cold along the way. After much thought
I think both are true, sad but true...
Bon,
I love that song! I had no idea Eddie Fisher sang.. Now here
is the question, I know its from a musical, but which one?
Mek,
Oh my.. yes the heartbeat of a child, I remember my nephews
beats, I used to listen to their hearts daily.. AMAZING is right..
Goldie,
Well then you go right ahead and take a chomp out of that
rhino's ass.. but please, Don't Swallow.. :O)
Goldie,
Oh crap, I don' think I am going to look at a donut hole the
same ever!
Mek,
Craving donuts or a Rhino's ass, as according to Goldie its
all the same.. :O)
Scirish,
Yes, exactly, I so believe the heart hurts..
Whabby,
Yes it some cases that Rhino would be a lucky
fellow.. :O)
Tinka,
So good to see ya, I hope the dr is able to give you something that will help. Feel better soon.
Zona,
Loved your march to 50 for Tinka! Perfect!
Ibb,
And here is a smile just for you :O)
Tina,
That is just it.. the love of the heart can be overwhelming, but it a good way..
Lani,
I agree with Goldie, there is just no answer, and I can't comprehend why...
J/L,
Sending you hugs and tons and tons of smiles :O)
Sandie,
LOL.. Hippo butts, Rhino butts.. all the same...
SacBarb,
Congrats on 100.. I hope you feel better soon..
Does anyone know who Eddy really is? It seems Eddy's profile was created back in December...
I went to the Dr today.. I have a cold that has settled into my chest that is why I have the dry cough..
I have to continue taking the sudafed, and at nite she gave me cough medicine with codine (sp) in it.. So hopefully I will finally get a good nite sleep.. Oh, and I have to wash my nose out with saline, 5 times a day.. YUCK..
Sacbarb:
Did you go to the Dr?
Mary,
I agree.. your comment is Perfect!
Ahhh Chooo...
Excuse me..
:O)
Tinka,
Yes, please rest.. Thinking of you
♥♥♥
Shirley,
My heart tells me you are out there, I can feel it.. And your heart, is the sweetest most real heart that can ever be.. ♥♥
Carol..Bless you!!
Anyone have any lysol? CAROL sneezed all over my computer!
bwahahahaha
SANDIE...LOL@you congratulating yourself on 1st!! Too funny!
The following is an excerpt from a message I got from DONNA (HARTLDO) this evening. The power of the warm hearts on this nest is evidenced in her note...
Things are looking up, that is for sure. And my mom and sister are FINALLY seeing it. They've been so negative and they bring me down. I'm the only one who has never given up hope, but I know it's because of all my wonderful friends like you, who support me and keep me in their thoughts and prayers. I'm not just saying that either. Typing these thoughts down, calling a friend, hearing from a friend (via phone, email or in person), etc. has really kept me going. Just knowing people are out there for me and knowing that they care is such a comfort during this time. I so believe in positive energy and everyone is giving me enough to allow me to pass it on to Dad. I told him this tonight and he said thank you.
Now more than ever, I know to NEVER GIVE UP!
Thank you so much for your friendship!
(Feel free to pass this message along to anyone you want. You can even post it on the Owl's Nest, if you want.))
Your Friend,
Donna
Let's keep PUSHing for DONNA and her DAD!
Mary,
Thank You!
Mo,
Passing you the lysol.. as I have plenty..
I am a PUSHing....
Mo,
Thanks for sharing..
Ronnie and Birdee..
My heart can hold the both of you..
Miss ya both.. Hope you are both doing ok..
Jax..
I have room for you as well.. The ladder you created is here daily..
bbl
Mo, thanks do much for the update. I know she has been under a lot of stress. I will continue to push as hard as my little owl wings can push!
Tinka,I am "pushing' for you to get better!
Vig, where are you? Still no internet? Hope you check in soon!
Goldie~ Thanks for the laugh! Your avatar cracked me up, right at the right time!
Maureen and Carol thank you for your kind words. The support here on this blog is definitely the result of big, kind hearted people.
Donna I hope things continue to improve for your Dad. ((HUGS)) to you and your family.
JodiHo,
Are you snowed in? Miss ya today!
Iteach,
Did you get that snow day, that you so deserved..
so so so so so so lol!!
Hi Shirley.. waving at ya! with both wings.. ;O)
Mary,
I had forgotten.. goldies avatar cracked me up too..
sosososo. Lol..
American Idol was great 2nite.. whoever did not see it yet your gonna love it.. .
I wonder who will be our fav's this year..
so fun.. I feel like I am twelve..lol
Ok... stepping away from the computer now... going to take my cough meds..
Sandie! Congrats on first!!
Carol: What an awesome blog. I think it was so beautiful and well written. When I was young (like 16-18) I always felt that my heart had SO much love to give and no one to give it to. I just really felt like it would burst with all the love I had. I believe that it is good to start your adult life out with a lot of love in your heart because then you will never run out. I have never run out and I have been able to show my love for life, family, friends and everything all throughout my life. I still have a lot of love in my heart but it doesn't ache with the burden of it like it did back then. I am glad I could give so much love away. That is one thing, my family and friends know how much I love them.
Okay,,,going to read comments..
Idol was awesome! I wish I had a laptop so I could comment on here while watching. I just loved Stevie Wright. Who was everyone's fave? Also, loved Emily too..I didn't catch her last name but she was the rocker chick.
LynnD: I wonder that too..if it is something that they are born with or learned somehow along the way.
Carol For a minute there I thought you were "skipping" away from the computer. The thought of it made me laugh! Glad you got good meds so you can sleep at night. Thanks for the hugs and smiles, too! :)
Carol, I have to admit I like AI too. I was watching hoping I would hate it. I guess that means I am hooked for the duration lol!!
I'll join you and go put my eye drops in bbl.........
Mo: Thanks for passing along Donna's message.
Donna: I know you are doing a great job getting through this. I am so glad to hear the news that things are looking up. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Thank goodness your sister and Mom are seeing the light too!! Yay!! :)
Carol: My heart was loving American Idol too...and NEXT WEDNESDAY is the Louisville Segment..woo hoo!! I hope everyone gets to watch so they can see what a beautiful City Louisville is!!!!
They are going to have a special inside the audition too. I am excited to see that.
Mo: Your comment about Carol sneezing on the computer made me laugh. Yesterday, one of my bosses brought in a container of nuts and raisins. In the afternoon I thought I would go ahead and have some almonds because they were not salted. I had ten of them..counted them out. Well, before I went to have those someone else in my department grabbed a handful. So, after I ate mine, I heard him coughing, blowing his nose and hacking up a hairball (or something!). Ohhhh I was just sick. I am sure I caught something from reaching in there and taking out those almonds. PLEASE remind me not to do that again..someone! I have been taking Zicam and praying that I don't get sick! (sorry long story).
Goldie: Good luck at Curves. That is very cool! I got a membership to the Y but I haven't walked there yet. I think I will go tomorrow. I just got it on Friday. I am excited..I can actually be warm when I walk! And, they have two pools!
Carol: Sorry to hear you have a cold. I bet the washing it out with saline is not a fun thing to have to do! yikes!...*grabs some more Zicam*..yes, I am going to need this.
I have been extremely..EXTREMELY tired, since Sunday. I know that I am getting close to catching something..and I am fighting it like a mad woman.
Okay, I finally get on here and once again, I talk to myself..lol. I guess I scared everybuddy away!

Mary: I know, I really can't be left alone for a second..lol.
How's the machines? Are they getting any use these days? I only had 4,025 steps today. :( American Idol is going to have to be planned for, otherwise, I will fall back into old habits.
Tink: I just saw your message! My dad was having that and getting really sick and it took 3 trips to the ER but they finally figured out he had a Magnesium Deficiency!! He is better now, but it was really bad. Make sure and get your levels of vitamins/minerals checked out!! I really miss you and everyone here is worried worried WORRIED about you. HURRY BACK!
The serial poster strikes again! muahahaha ..okay, I am stepping away from the keyboard (I am sure to the relief and delight of everyone in the room). I have to get up early and I need some sleep. Sweet Dreams everyone and don't let the bed bugs bite!
Oh wait..one more:
Zona from Area 51: Well, you were so close! I got them at Sam's!! LOL. I actually bought two packs..one with three pairs and one with 4, but the consensus was the three pairs looked better. I have one in my purse, one at work and one here at the computer.
Okay..for real the last one.
Vig: I am sorry I missed your blog yesterday. When I get a chance I will catch up and comment. I just have been very busy and I didn't even get on the computer at all yesterday. :(
Just heard this and cracked up...
Two canibals were eating a clown. One turned to the other and said..."does this taste funny to you?"
Bwahahahaha
Carol, I am Eddy aka Mr Ed. SANDIE sent him to me some time ago. She was teasing me about my 1st boyfriend and how he taught me to kiss.
bebbi, I am trying to type with socks on my hands lol! My hands were hurting because they were so dry. I put way too much lotion on. I didn't want to get my keyboard greasy. Anybody ever over-lube anything?
Mo:
LOL..
Lani:
Well that solves the mystery! Well then welcome Eddy aka Lani.. :O)
Mary:
Just what I needed to here over-lube.. HA! Porn.. and I did not start it.. :O)
Mary~~Sorry, not gonna bite...just too easy!
Mo~~Have I told you lately how good it is to get you back and out of the clutches of the HellHole?
Watching Idol...remembering why I usually skip the pre-Hollywood weeks...but I LOVE Paula's new glasses :-)
Oh, Carol--just saw you there...the song was from 'Damn Yankees'.
A Retiree's Thought
My wife said, "Whatcha doin today?"
I said, "Nothing."
She said, "You did that yesterday."
I said, "I wasn't finished."
JUST LIN...OH MY GOSH.....I am laughing my ass off! I am speechless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MARY...ummm, that's a little too personal!!! :)~
LANI...your first boyfriend was a horse and my last boyriend was a jackass! Cousins twice removed??? LOL!!!!
Bebbi:
You are doing terrific keep up the good work.. Its kinds fun being alone sometimes, as you can comment and then answer yourself.. Fun!
Oh.. and remember some owls are on west coast time, so they see things on tv after us.. so we try not to give any spoilers to do with the show, until they see it..
Then of course we can discuss our Rhinno asses off..lol
Sometimes these crazy west coast owls can't wait and will ask for a private spoiler (thru e-mail), well then I say.. e-mail them, if they ask then they shall receive..
And btw.. how the heck do you eat 10 nuts.. geez I would eat the whole bag.. Kudos for your control..
Pass me the nuts please...
:O)
Bon!
That it! Thanks!
BONO...it's bittersweet. On one hand it's good to be out of the Hell Hole's clutch. On the other hand the mailman still brings the bills to my door. I do need to find another clutch...soon. But it sure is fun to be hanging out here more often.
And I miss my big tip nights...LOL!!
Mo:
