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!

Either way is fine~~
something is weighing on my mind
i have tired to pin point the exact poundage
however it alludes me, so for now until
i find the words:
when we created this night owl blog
it was for all, to compose, enjoy, and most
of all chat, friendships have been made
laughter has been found, yellow is present
it is fun for me, kinda like "what is everyone
up to" when i find one blogger happy it is
a feel good thing, we do a happy dance
and praise the happiness
when a blogger is going thru a difficult
time, we stand by them, give them comfort
and tell them under no uncertain terms that we
are here for them
i want to see the happiness, and i want to see
the turmoil, it is what i call "life"
so bad or good its ok, put it out there
let us cheer you on or let us comfort you
i really don't think one blogger can bring
this blog down, as the next blogger will
bring it up, its a balancing act, just like "life"
we need to realize what we have created here
it is something so unique that i don't think
it can be explained, i do know that whoever
is reading this knows, you feel it, you see it
good, bad, indifferent, fat, skinny
whatever! who the heck cares!
its just "life"
:O)

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 519 Newer› Newest»Ouch....Shit...that hurt...
Hey, Stop please stop deleting your comments. It's throwing the numbers off and making it look like I can't count. That is an awful thing to happen to an ex teacher.
Who the heck kicked me!
YIPEEEE!! I learned from the Queen-MEK!;)lmao
I did not have time to put my gear on, So I am limping!
:O)
ROFLMAO@Carol! Sorry lol
Oh I forgot someone's name in my post and I didn't want them to feel left out! lmao
We need an "edit your post" button! Flickr has one!?lol
Joey
Congrats on 200!!!!
Even tho you kicked me....
Joey
Yes mek is a great teacher, and she makes a mean baked potato!
I have not uploaded pics yet. I will try to do it soon.
Just noticed I can't even SPELL 'viRginity.....it's been so long!
Joey
lol...mentioning you on the blog today!
mek
How is Bailey, did I spell that right?
sacbarb
I was looking for the pics as well!
I am back for just a second. Everyone knows that I have worked with animal rescue for 20 years.
Amicus you said every word I wanted to say about the dog and grooming situation. The question wasn't addressed to me so I kept biting my tongue. I darn near bit it off. :0)
Joey you be so funny. How does that go. Baawaahhaa. Poo, I don't know.
Okay I'm out of here. We're off for dinner and a movie.
Joey - I got lost because my last comment got saved for some reason. When I got back to the original you had already past 200. Am I upsetting the site or something? I have never been saved before. Somehow that comment doesn't sound right.
I am excited about my new back up hard drive. I will never have to worry about having too many DVD's stored again. I want to talk to you someday on myspace about EBay. I have the worst luck with it.
Be back later.
I like tomato on my grill cheese!
But I don't like it burnt!
BARB/WA: Congrats on first. I am so glad that you got Kodiak back into the house. Try witch hazel on the scratches. LOL @ need drugs for the oncoming headache..been there done that. ;)
MEK: Sorry for what you went through this morning..and afternoon with the groomers and Bailey. {{HUGS}}
TINKA: Glad it got there all right. I love you too!!
LYNND: I've had people look at me sideways too when I tell them about the blog. I think they're just jealous that they don't have this kind of support system. :)
RGIRL: I know how you feel sometimes, I really do. {{HUGS}}
SCIRISH: I know I have said some things that embarrassed me, and you know what..no one ever let them embarrass me for long. That's what is so wonderful about this blog.
WHABBEAR: I was so happy when you started commenting on the Night Owls, and love that I got to meet you and MEK too!! :)
IBB: I agree, this is my happy place too.
GOLDIE: Please send us some cooler weather, PLEASE!!! ;)
JODI: Down to a dull roar, don't think the hammer will be necessary! Your great news yesterday made me smile!! :)
SACBARB: Didn't give you a proper welcome back, but you know how I feel. I missed you TONS!
KGRL: You sang for TINA..??
J/LIN: I have loved watching (well, from afar..ummm...you know what I mean)you and Custard's relationship turn into something so beautiful.
TINA: That was a Quik Trip ;)..glad the news was so good. Now than, are you staying put for a while or is there more travelling in your future?? And can I come...please tell me I can. ;)
JODI: ;) again...!!
EBJ: How the is Paula doing?? I hope much better. Nikki is now officially a Raiders dog..silver legs, black and white coat. :)
AMICUS: Without you, my myspace would look like this comment box. ;)
LOVEY: Your post was wonderful!
Waving HI to ITEACH, VIG and DIANNE and anyone else who I missed while writing this almost never ending post. Sorry!!
to all
Thanks for commenting today, I read them all and loved them all!
Thursday will be our 100th blog.
What should we do?
zona
Do you take notes? You are so good and answering everyone's comment.
I find it so hard, so I cheat and just thank all...
Aww sorry Tink!
Thanks Dreama! lol
SacBarb: I look forward to the pics!
Carol: OMG I love tomato on my grilled cheese too!
I think we should have a "cyber cake" with 100 on it! haha
Let's have a cyber party! WOO HOO!
They celebrate 100 episodes on t.v. shows, so THIS is definitely worth celebrating! I'll brainstorm and email you!
Even when I take notes, I can't seem to understand them. And if I type it out it does not make sense...
So what is your secret?
I am so pissed my $19.95 shoes from payless are broke. I just bought them last month and can't find the receipt
I wore them about 5 times....
I guess you get what you pay for :(
Holy...I started posting at 175 and look what happened..I missed the march and everything!! That'll teach me.
JOEY: Congrats on 200!
BON'O: LOL @ "it's been so long..."
I think we have a QOTD!!
TINKA: Were you marching? Please be careful!!
I have one idea! I'll say it now! lol
We can post 100 Quotes of the Day!
lol
I actually have been surprising y'all by saving a lot of them! I dunno how many I have..They're in a "night owls" folder! I have "screenshots" of LOTS of them! I was gonna make some type of collage or something with them!
**leaves to go peep** haha
Well, it appears to be 25-30! I thought I have more..They're funny though;)
I figured since they were disappearing the next day, I saved them for us as "memories"!:):)
CPGEM: Scroll, scroll...type..no notes! Your Happy Blue worked wonders!
Thanks Zona! Awww Carol-That sucks! Sorry!
I agree about BONO's quote! Ironic you mentioned that zona, because your post wasn't there when I just typed that about quotes! haha
zona
Oh, you scroll and then go back up?
But what if there is two pages?
I am giving you a migraine with all these questions?
Joey
I can't believe you saved the quotes.. What a great idea...
Thank You♥♥
100 owl quotes!!
Oh no wait we don't have 100 hmmmm..
sac....are you offering "special brownies"???? I really could use one. My headache is in full force. I didn't take the drugs soon enough. ugh....
MEK....did you and Mr MEK go out to dinner????
Dreama....don't wait for an invitation to respond to someone. If you have something to share then please share! We can all use different opinions.
I think it was Lynn who suggested a little sit down and talk with Kodiak. I will be doing that tonight. Do you think it will make a difference????
Unless I go back and find more, and when would I do this? Time management is not my best feature...
Maybe....
All you owl bloggers can look at old blogs and send me some quotes?
Its a thought...
JOEY!!!! I love that idea! Some of the QOTD's have been hilarious! I never thought to save them. For some reason I always thought they were with each blog.
Carol...Do you have all of them??? I don't think there were QOTD everyday was there? I know sometimes there were 2 though.
barbwa
No, I did not save them, when I post a new one, I erase the old one.
Never thought of saving them.
Carol...you could assign certain blogs to people and they can go through and pick their fav quotes and send them to you. I would be more than happy to help out!
CPGEM: I usually post before it's two pages..today caught me by surprise, so I added an addendum..I refuse to get a migraine today. Though saying that might be tempting fate!
DIANNE: You surprised me!!!!!! Thank you! SWAK! :) I have the wall, and the nails..just need Mr. Z to pound the holes!! LOL!
barbwa
Great idea...Now to figure out who is willing to help, I don't want to put anyone out.
zona
Thank You! I will try that the scrolling method!
Well that made no sense!
Lets try it again...
"I will try the scrolling method!"
Thats better
I have to close up my office...
I will see you guys when I get home!
:O)
♥♥♥
Carol...I too love this blog. It has helped me through some months that were dark and grey and sad and now the sun is shining again. I am amazed by the people here, wonderful and incredible people I consider friends. We are all different and diverse and unique and on others blogs that has created problems, but here, Carol, you have created a culture of respect. If there is a problem it doesn't come to the blog...but works itself out elsewhere. Drama free is greatly appreciated.
I also like that one can be a big or a little presence on the blog...whatever works best for one's individual needs. Work and travelling for work dictates how much time I can spend on the blog and some times I don't get on for awhile and I am welcomed back on when I return and I really love that.
Sometimes what I write goes unnoticed and that is okay, because the blog is cathartic..and just writing thoughts down in a public forum makes them real and gives meaning to what I am thinking and writing about.
SO for all those reasons I say the biggest thank you possible Carol..you have created a home!
CPGEM: I'll help out too! I'm up all night anyway!
BARB/WA: Is Kodi still in time out? I did that with Nikki when she attempted to get out the gate. She never tried again. Though it could have been my screech that she responded to!! ;)
VIG: If it wasn't for you I might not know the difference between a river and an ocean..or know the story of OGOPOGO!! ;)
Barb/WA: I just happen to have saved a couple of special brownies that I would be happy to share. I don't knowe if a talk with Kodi will help. I have doves nesting in my carport and I had a serious talk with them (actually talked to them, they didn't talk back) about pooping on my car and it did NO GOOD AT ALL. My car was a mess when I got home. Maybe they were just mad cause I was gone. ::Sigh::
Most kindergartens, first grade, and second grade classrooms have a big party for the 100th day of school!
I love 100 day.
It usually fall around Feb. 2nd for us.
One tradition that I always do on the 100thday is have kids brings in 100 items of something.
How about we do the same?
Everyone has to bring 100 of something on 100th blog day and share it with the owls.
What do you think?
For example, someone could bring 100 brownie bites to share with the nest.
Any other 100 day ideas?
ITEACH: I could bring 100 degrees..would that count?? ;) BTW I got part of the mail out today. Still have a box to send..I am so awful at getting things to the post office.
vig....it's always nice to see you here! keep coming and talking to us!
zona....yes kodi is still in time-out. i had to leave to go back to work. the sad thing is alyeska had to go in time out too. guilty by association poor thing. if he gets in trouble, she gets upset and wants to be in the room with him. that and the litter boxes are in there. and extra food and water. but aly gets so upset if he is in that room with the door shut and she is not in there with him.
carol...just put out the plea! when is number 100??? when do you want this by? i have time. just let me know.
LOL iteach! I like that idea too! We need to decide quickly!
LOL sac! Maybe you need to have a sterner talk with them!
Barb/Wa: Time out doesn't sound all that bad with food and all.
Zona...thanks and you are the reason I know what a jackelope is and more about Arizona then I have ever known before. Awesome!
BarbaraWa...thanks..it is always nice to see you here too!
iteach...I could bring 100 copies of Sound of Music...since the SOM play by play was one of my favourite blogs!
Carol: I'll help, just give ma an assignment, boss lady.
Hey that was 250 and I didn't even have to march!
I need to proof read...just give ME not ma (although one of my boys calls me that)
ZONA - I sang for Tina (message) and she called me back when I was napping - and you wouldn't believe the noise!!! Somewhere between a screaching cat and fingernails on the blackboard!!! LOL!!
CAR0L - Your sandwich is coming right up!! Did I mention the yummy Amish Honey Wheat Bread I used for the sammy's?
IDOL is on!!! I'll be back later.
JOEY - Thanks for keeping me on your list!!!
OH MY GOD!!
You all totally crack me up!!
Barb in WA - I picture you with twigs hanging out of your hair!! Oh, the frustration you must have felt..
Zona - bringing 100 degrees - I sure hope it doesn't hit 100 on Thursday!!
Amicus - :-) -
Bono - I believe I had the same thoughts that maybe another "client" was the problem - but when I picked her up - I was NOT happy with the response that I got! SO - we'll be changing groomers!! I have calmed down now..
Oh crap - Mr. MEK just got home - so I need to go for a minute.. need to tell him what happened today!!
OH and 100 days old on THursday - what a perfect day to have a blog buddy party!!! :-)
Mr. MEK is asking me about dinner - the east coast must be watching Idol and BIggest Loser -
we're going to hit the freezer for frozen food!! (that will be way too easy)!! that way my clean kitchen can stay that way!! LOL
cpgem - a baked chicken breast with mashed potatoes and gravy is on the way!!
I'll be back later!!
100 DAYS OLD!!!!! wowsa.
Well, I think it would be a great day for all the Owls to go over to BLOGGERS CHOICE
** buttons are on the nest main page**
and VOTE for the nest.
High 5 Joey on voting.
xox
AI just started,gotta watch it...and
DWTS is on after it..woohooo!
Renee, who do u think is gone?
bbl
Zona: I missed you tons too. Luv ya.
Carol I can help if you want to do the 100 quotes.
Carol I like iteach's idea, too, of bring 100 of something. We could get really imaginative with that. It would make for some very interesting posts. We could bring our 100 items and explain why we chose that particular thing.
JODI: You sang for me, and I loved it...remember Easter?? :) What did TINA sing??
TINA: When are you going to sing for me?? Cher doesn't count..;)
MEK: I think we are actually going to be in the 80's on Thursday..TG!!
BARB/WA: Nikki cried and cried, and I had a gate up so she could see everyone. I had to put her in time out when MEK and WHABBEAR were here too, she just showed them a little too much love! ;)
Now to feed the loving ol' Nikki!!
MEK....
Thursday is PERFECT for a Blog Buddie meeting! I'll pack my bags!
I just love DAVID COOK...
he needs to win this whole thing!!!!!
Good Evening Feathered Friends!
Yes, it's really me!! Sorry I have been so absent...here and at myspace. I am caught up in a bunch of stuff that is taking my time and my energy! It is all good though...I'm not complaining...just missing my owls!
CAROL...I love that you have created a beautiful nest where we can roost. We can experience the full gammut of emotions here...from tears of laughter to tears if sorrow. And we are never judged. Well, TINA kinda judged by calling us WHORES!!! (I love you, TINA!!)And I can't think of a better group of ho's to hang with!
I know that regardless of my activity or inactivity here, I will be welcomed...and that speaks volumes for ALL of you.
I do have to acknowledge that if it wasn't for a certain intern and a certain insect, I would have never found any of you. So, I have to say I am grateful for those venues.
And I have to say that I would love to meet ANY and ALL of you. I know in my heart that we would have a great time and the care we share here would translate into real life. THANK YOU.
MEK...I'm sorry you and Bailey had such a rough day. Play in your scrapbooking stuff and you'll feel better! And give a belly rub to Bailey from me.
BARB...Hun, take a nice hot bubble bath, have a glass of wine, turn on American Idol and relax!
LYNN...Remind me to stay away from any stores when you are there!! :)
RONNIE...glad you found your way here. Yes, baby steps will make it much easier to find the comfort to just continue to be you! That is who we love.
JOEY...How cool you are going to put together 100 quotes for Carol!! (Carol, do ya think that worked? LOL)
ZONA...any more info to share about Cleveland and ALlantown? I am sorry you are so hot and miserable. It is only in the hi 50's here, so come on up!
OMG, I had all my comments figured out... and now I am at a loss! ME AT A LOSS????? LOL! But true.
I will try to come back and comment to the rest of you as I had planned. If not, don't hate me!
{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}} to ALL of you!
265 - just because
Barb - come on down!!! Just remember your toothbrush!!
:-)
Zona - I know about the temps - we are going to "cool off" as the weather man put it - HA HA to 83.. too funny!! that is still too frickening hot!!
AND - may I please trade an Idol update for a DWTS spoiler?? thank you!!
oh what the hell.
267
268
TWO - sixty nine
my goodness .. it took me forever to catch up today...
But...
TINKA...CONGRATS ON 55...
RONNIE--- Congrats On 75...
You two are wild women ..You little marchers you...
(Sorry I still can't call tinka that word!!!)
Lovey I think you summed it up best...
and love what you did with my picture!!!
LynnD -- love the secret garden idea.. ...and I just said happy place...
idol is over ... my fav still david cook...
MEK-- I can't believe YOU just did that!!!
sacbarb
I despise bird shit! It grosses me out. I think you need to have another talk with those Doves!
jodi
Thanks for the sammie..delish
mek
Oh shit I have to scroll, I can't find it, I think you fed me too...
Oh gosh what was it...It sounded delish as well!
mo
Thank You..sorry thats all I got :O)
IBB - I know - shocking, huh??!! I did it for Turtle!!
Glad you enjoyed Idol - can't wait - but have too!! LOL
I am taping the first hour of Biggest Loser - and will switch over to that after Idol!!
AND - I have felt bad for all those other kids this week - with all the hoopla over Michael being voted off - each week - someone has to go and it's getting tougher and tougher with every round..
SO - with that said - IBB - who do you feel did the worst tonight??
cpgem - you can take my "eats" for lunch tomorrow -
275
speaking of Jackalopes - my little brother used to work for a semi-pro hockey team in Midland/Odessa - the Odessa jackalopes!! SO, they are in TX also!! The owner had the hockey team and a Double AA baseball team!!
35 minutes to Idol!!
Amicus - I can't remember is I thanked you or not!! (I think Mr. MEK came home in the middle of my writing) - anyway - thank you!!
MEK-- I don't know...
the worst... nobody was horrible... but their were only 2 stand outs to me...
HOLY GUACAMOLE OWLS!! 276???!!!
Sorry I didn't get here sooner in the day. I had my business meeting at the crack of friggin dawn this morning, then a PTA meeting.... then a headache that put me in bed for a few hours. OUCH! I feel better now, but I am afraid to read too much because I don't want the head to pound again.
Just want to say THANK YOU to Carol and everyone who has made me feel so welcome here... and you know who you are. ;0)
all
Maybe we can pull this off...
I will give whoever asked they would help some blogs, you pick 20 quotes, if you can't do 20 then do 15..Send them to be my tomorrow nite and will count out 100, and our blog will be the owl quotes.
When we comment that day we all do what iteach has suggested (shit have to scroll again)
"Everyone has to bring 100 of something on 100th blog day and share it with the owls"
Here is the catch you cannot repeat what someone has offered, you can comment as much as you like, so by days end I am sure it will get quite funny as what everyone is bringing and if someone messes up and repeats what already has been given.
If anyone repeats, they have to write the next day blog!
I will need a monitor tho, as I cannot do it during the day, Is anyone willing to be the owl monitor?
Ok..last thing...Is this to silly?
Or do you think it will be just plain Fun!?
Glynis - I am happy that you landed in the nest - I'm sorry that you have a headache - hope it goes away soon!!
Hey ---I need to say hello to VIG...you are always missed
Scabarb--- glad you are home safely... and we want pictures... missed you too...
I need to take notes...
I had all these things I wanted to say to pweople ... and now... gone...
OH... you should see all the hoopla with the POPE in town... OH ..I am so glad I am 60 miles away... I would love to see him... but downtown DC is not where I want to go... traffic will be disaster... more so than usual..
and the new stadium doesn't have metro to it yet... what a nightmare...
Zona - This post is way out of context because it belongs back where you commented about the Ogopogo, (Hours ago). Somehow it ended up on the wrong day. I was rushing to get to see A. I. I copied and pasted it so you can read it now.
Zona - When you visit me we can look for our local sea monster. He is called Caddy which is short for Cadborosaurus. He has been seen many times and I think he is more impressive than Ogopogo. People from the Okanagan don't think so but we do. He is estimated to be between 50 and 100 feet long. His speed has been clocked at 40 knots (46mph). He appears serpent like with a head and neck similar to a horse. His colour ranges from blackish blue to gray brown. He loves to eat vegetables. We will take long walks on the beach with VIG and try to see him.
April 15, 2008 7:59 PM
Carol... I think it will be fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cpgem - I can't monitor - my company arrives on thursday - so I will have to play early!! But it sounds like fun!! I am already thinking about what I will bring!!
285
me too.. and i think playing early will be smart .. before there are any repeats...
No fair playing early for me is lunchtime for the west coasters....lmao
night.owls.sb - It sounds like fun except for the part about having to write the next day's blog is you repeat. I can't take that kind of pressure. I would worry about it. I can only write if somthing comes to me out of the blue. If I had to write I would be blocked and a nervous wreck. I think you and I talked about this before.
KGRL-- maybe you need to stay up and play early with us!!!
"Oh where oh where has TINA gone? Oh where oh where can she be? With her quick wit and her rapier style..oh where oh where can she be?"
Sing loud and proud, Zona
Turtle will set her alarm on Thursday!!
Zona---HEY.. we are in the nest at teh same time... this never happens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love you all
Here we go
and I am sure tina is lurking ...
300
300
300
SHIT - CRAP and DAMN
I got FOAD!!!!!!!!
LOL --
congrats IBB!! great march!!
WOOOHOOO!!!
HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay - who's going to give me the DWTS spoiler?!!
Idol in 5 minutes
I was wondering where you went!!!
I just changed over to DWTS.. from BB... will let you know... over at myspace...
Don't want to ruin it for anyone who doesn't want to know!!!
IBB!!! How are you?? Sorry, I deleted my comment--realized there was a spoiler there! Congrats on 300!!
MEK: I only sing when no one can hear me!!
CPGEM: No more blogs for me..eeeek! At least for a while. I'll have to get up early..no STAY up!! ;)
TINKA: I am so afraid of BIG fish..does he stay IN the lake and just poke his head out? Cuz that would be ok...;)
OMG - I didn't realize WHO the mentor was this week on Idol - oh no - this might be bad!!!
LOL - they everyone NOT to sing her songs and then have her here!!
Tinka
No worries, It really does not have to be that way, it was just something I threw in. If you repeat you are def out of writing the blog...However I don't think you would repeat anyway, you are so detailed... :O)
Don't stay away that day, No pressure! It will just be fun, OK...
Please don't worry!
:O)
Thanks sacbarb, just_lin, barbwa for offering to help. I have sent you 5 past blogs each via myspace...
If you guys do 20 each I will have 60 and joeysaid he has some...
Hello
I left
THEY tell everyone
out of my comment about the mentor!!
where is that spelling and grammar policeman??!! dangnabit!!
Thought I'd fly in and say HOWDY OWLS!!
well my shows are over....... and my 3 fav, boys did well... but man I'm pissed with DWTS.
I gotta catch up on comments..lol...I've been a scatter brain today.
CPGEM: Did you miss me? I said I would help too if you need me! :)
zona
I did miss you, and I so need someone else to look for another 20, I just did not want to ask...
So if you do 20 and Joey gives me 20.
We have 100...
Thank You...
I will be sending you a myspace msg!
I just finished watching Idol, and right now, I'm so wishing there wasn't a difference in time zones. :)
Tinka: It was a good day! :) I was a little slower than normal because of what happened Saturday, but I'm sure I'll gain my confidence again. It's just going to take time. Thanks for asking!
Barbara: Glad Kodi is safe and back in the house again!
Dreama: Thanks! I'm normally willing to give a groomer the benefit of the doubt, but I can't in this situation for the reasons I mentioned.
Zona: Glad you were able to come out and play today! Missed you! Thanks for the sweet comment!
Mo: I've missed you too so it's also nice to see you here today! Hope the new jobs are going well.
MEK: You're welcome! I'm sorry you had to go through that stress today. {{Hugs}}
Goodnight Owls! See you tomorrow. Sweet dreams!
hey zona--I think it will NAT...
just a feeling ... What do you think!!!
The jury house would love it.. all but Matty!!!!
Carol I sent you some quotes a little while ago. I hope I wasn't stepping on anyones toes by doing it without asking first.
No Shirley You are not, I am glad you are offering to help.
Thank You!
IBB: I agree..eventhough the boys are making it sound different. Sequestered with her...hmmmm might be a double edge sword for some!! ;)
MO: Mr. Z tore apart an entire room!! We hid those dang strong boxes so well, WE can't even find them. When we do...info is gonna gush your way! I do know that my Grandma and her sisters took dance lessons from Gene Kelly's Family dance studio!
CPGEM: Glad to help!!
Carol I think everything I would have said about this blog has already been said today. The past fifteen months have been difficult for me and like everyone else I have had good and bad days. Unfortunately the bad have out numbered the good. Today is a bad one. But through my tears I have read the tributes people have made here and even managed to find you some quotes. I have enjoyed bring breakfast and chocolate and thank you for allowing me to do so. Congratulations in advance for the 100th blog.
Every one must be watching IDOL right now!!!
Zona- I use to be reall stubborn about turning the furnance on. I use to have this rule to wait until Nov. 1st. I did that for the longest time until the children came.
I'm going back to that rule after they leave. One of the many wacky things about me.
IBB I never watch Idol.
I'm suppose to be grading!
Hello Owls!
Carol if you need more help send me an email on myspace and when I get home from the foodbank tomorrow I will do some searching for you!
100 already it seems like yesterday!
Waving at everyone!
Mo: I missssssssss you!!!
Ok gotta run Mr. Lynn D is hollering! Probably for something dumb! Like have you seen.... He is getting ready for another trip.
Yak at y'all in the morning!
Zona - Don't worry. Caddy swims way out in the deep water. He hasn't been seen for years but people still look out over the water and think they see him. He is like the Loch Ness Monster. No one has proved he really exists but a lot of people think they have seen him. If we did see him and got his picture we would be famous.
night.owls.sb - Thanks for the reassurance. I just can't handle pressure any more. It all sounds like fun however.
Amicus - I am glad you had a pretty good day. I was thinking about you a lot.
Shirley - I have enjoyed your breakfasts and lunches so much. You are such a good sport.
I watched American Idol on the early feed and enjoyed it. I will see DWTS at nine.
I could easily adopt little David. What an asset he would be at our family sing-a-longs.
I will bid you all a Good Night. What a fun day it was in the nest. God bless and keep you safe. Love, Tinka
OMG - do NOT miss the last performance on American Idol!!
Bono - are you listening??!!
OMG - and with each week, this person becomes my FAVORITE and I AM going to vote tonight!! can't have anymore "shocking" results!!
AMAZING!!!! (that was for EBJ)
Tinka - good night and good marching!!!
:-)
TINKA: Good night sweet lady! Enjoy your DVD's! Love you!
OH crap =
MY BAD --
NOT the LAST one - the second to last one!!
Second to last one!!!
Oh crap - I almost was going to vote for the WRONG person tonight..
Idol OH SIX!!!!
YIKES!!
Hi everyone! Flying by very quickly because AI is about to start!
I was out and about all day running errands, appointments, you name it! Life just sucks the life right out of us doesn't it????
Wonderful blog Carol. I try not to bring any bad "karma" to the Blog. If I have in the past few weeks, please let me know, OK? I am very sorry if that has been the case.
This is a "place of refuge" for all of us. A place where no judgements are made, a place we can go knowing that our words, feelings and comments will be heard by loving, caring individuals, diverse in beliefs, but united in that common goal.
As for celebrating the 100th BLOG. How about the "drinking game"? Every time the word 100 comes up you must take a drink of SOMETHING!!! Could be water, coffee, tea, soda/pop, or if you are very liberal, something a bit more "strong"!!! Just a thought!
Happy Tuesday evening to all,
DonnaJean and Laurie Elizabeth
alright - I'm all for a drinking game!! LOL
Okay - let the dialing begin!!
Idol - 06!!!!
I want 333.
332
333
I did it! Off to grade more papers.
AND - what's even the BEST about this place - we can march to whatever number we want too!!!
okay - gotta keep dialing!!!
ITEACH!!! Congrats on 333....
I love the marches today!!!
MEK..I ma glad you fixed your comment... with 2nd to last!!!
IBB - no kidding - I made a major error in that post!! maybe I should delete it so no one is confused..
OH - and I'm dialing, dialing and have yet to have a busy signal - that is NOT a good sign - is it?
BONO - second to last performance!!
MEK~~I'm watching....only lil David and Carly so far. Why am I finding lil David more boring each week? I think he could sing the phone book and the judges would go crazy for him. Loved him at the beginning....Carly? Redeemed herself after a 'pitchy' start. As RJ would say 'I just didn't feel it, Dude"
I hope I am not too late ...TINKA..SWEET DREAMS!!!
Great posts by all today!!
WTG marchers!!
Wonderful idea for the celebration Carol and Iteach.
Let that drinkin game begin hehe, put the lime in the coconut...lalala..
IBB so glad you took a peek, and you liked it. Ty again for the permission to use.
Mo I hope your potty troubles are fixed and I miss u.
Birdee.. Jax.... get your feathers back here soon..PLEASE...we miss u...
Jodi.. SWAK! just cause..
I need notes, I can't scroll.... lol... Donna Jean... drop off some #2's next time u pop in please..xox
Hiya Bon!! we were posting sametime :o)
Bono - I totally agree about Little David - boring!!!
Mek who do u think is gonna go tomorrow?
OH my - Lovey - I believe it will be one of the two gals that were in the bottom three last week - not because of their performance, but because they always seem to be in the bottom.
I get more impressed by country girl with every week !! I LOVED her tonight!!
AND - as Bono said that little David is boring - that is how I was feeling about Michael Johns - seemed he sounded the same every week! so - I did not miss him tonight!!
I am redialing and redialing and haven't had a busy signal yet!!
YIKES
maybe when the West Coast kicks in!!!??
AND - these people on The Biggest Loser are making me cry..
It's AMAZING (again, for EBJ) how they have transformed their lives and how successful they are!!!
AMAZING!!!
Carol & Everybody ~~ If anyone's intersted in having an Owl Potluck Thursday...maybe bringing something tasty from your own region...I'll bring plates and post the Menu for y'all.....anyone who wants to contribute can let me know what you'll bring, either here or on MS before tomorrow night. Takers?
Does it have to be homemade?
350
350?
tee hee, MEK!
Yeah - a drinking game AND a potluck!!
Gotta LOVE this place!!!
Iteach - LOL at homemade!!
okay - the final three are getting ready to weigh in..
Bono - I'll share 350 with you!!!
CHEERS!!!
355, just to be tedious!!!
iTeach~~Heck, No....just make sure if you bring doughnuts, they still have their frosting, please!
(IDOL)I'd love to hear Kristy Lee sing LeAnn Rimes' 'Blue'. I bit it'd be a goosebump moment.
bit / bet.....you knew, right?
Jodi~~You don't get to choose....I'll put you down for 8 gallons of potato salad!
Bono - I was thinking the same thing...
Hodi MUST bring her famous potato salad!!!
Bono is about to see THE performance of the night!!!
David Cook = Rob Thomas + Dave Matthews to the 10th power!
Bono - I will bring a HUGE veggie tray - with all kinds of healthy stuff with a BIG OLE thing of ranch dressing for dipping!!
I know, I know - I would usually sign up for CHOCOLATE - but The Biggest Loser is inspiring me!!!
and this will help off set some of the other YUMMY calories!!
and, Bono - I agree - country girl would do an AMAZING job wtih "Blue"
Bono - start dialing!!!
:-)
Joey - I think I have figured out WHY you thought I was only a two hour difference from the East Coast..
our shows like Idol, come on at 7pm, so our news starts at 10pm.
SO - I get to see the shows before the West coast - does this make sense?!!
So - my tv is two hours difference, but time wise - it's three hours!!
wow, my first busy signal in over an hour!!
I'm going to dial, dial, dial!!!
bon'o....
I will bring smoked salmon, smoked sturgeon, crackers, cream cheese and capers. And to drink...A selection of Pacific NW wines. Any takers?????
MEK: I'm dialing too - Idol oh 6 WOW!
I'll bring lasagna - both veggie and meat. I'll bring some garlic bread to go with it too, but I PROMISE not to burn it.
Carol: I got your message and will get the quotes back to you tomorrow.
Barbara you are making me soooo hungry!
Hey I should bring corn!
I'm surrounded by cornfields and burnt down factories.
Good night everyone!
Hey, Barb, I'm Italian too! My mom is 100%.
Hey -
SacBarb - lol at NOT burning the bread!! i will watch the oven for you!!
Barb - we're having a drinking game - SO - the wine will fit right in..
OH - and I'll bring some Butter Babies for the shot drinking contest!!!
SacBarb - dial you little fingers away - in l hour and 15 minutes I have only gotten TWO busy signals!!
I have voted NON-STOP!!
AMAZING..
Everytime someone says "owl" they have to take a shot!
OWL, OWL..
