So glad to have you back, Bsg and Shiningstar :heart:
I was thinking some of the flourescents had gone out, but it was just the temporary want of your bright and cheerful personalities :)

[bsg1fan1975]

yup. Well Saturday we are going to the other side of the state as our friends have their huge annual cookout so we are going there and then we are going to a fair on the way home and going to seecountry singer Trace Adkins in concert. So far since last fall I have see Charlie Daniels and The Oak Ridge Boys all in concert at fairs.

So far since last fall I have see Charlie Daniels and The Oak Ridge Boys all in concert at fairs. That's one of the reasons I love going to fairs so we can see all the stars in concert :thumbsup:

[bsg1fan1975]

yup and at a cheaper price!

[shiningstar]

a MUCH CHEAPER Price :eek: :D

[bsg1fan1975]

yup. We saw the Oak Ridge Boys at a NY fair for $10 bucks a piece.

[shiningstar]

yup. We saw the Oak Ridge Boys at a NY fair for $10 bucks a piece. Not bad ........not bad at all :thumbsup:

[bsg1fan1975]

nope.

Got the baking done for tommorrow. Made Lemon squares.

[shiningstar]

nope.

Got the baking done for tommorrow. Made Lemon squares.:drool:

Tomorrow I'll be fasting as it will be Yom Kipper. :cool:

[bsg1fan1975]

had a good time at the fair even though a group of rude teens stood in the way of me seeing Trace Adkins. hubby enjoyed himself too. I did get glimpses of him from time to time through the wall of bodies. Man, he is more good looking in person than on tv. Got a nice posterior too! After the concert they had a place near the stage where you could buy some of his merchandise. My hubby bought me an autographed cd.

[julix]

Sounds like fun BSG.....
How nice your hubby got you an autographed CD! :)

[bsg1fan1975]

it was. would have been better if we could have seen the stage!

[shiningstar]

it was. would have been better if we could have seen the stage! Bsg .........I got the teenager, FIL and HS in the Thwack thread.
Hope it helps you feel a bit better :rose:

[bsg1fan1975]

it did!

[shiningstar]

I'm glad Bsg :rose:

[bsg1fan1975]

can't wait for the weekend. I am so excited! We are going on a day trip to Deerfield, MA to the Yankee Candle Factory to do a little shopping. My mother in law thinks its easier to go to the little stores they have in the malls. Yeah, its convenient but the selection isn't as good. I plan on buying 2 or three big jar candles to get me past Xmas. I love the different smells that hit you when you walk through there!

[amberstar]

I love Yankee Candles!!!!!!!!:heart:

It would be dangerous to my wallet for me to go there.....I just couldn't stop a few big ones :)

Have you tried their room spray and wall plug in sents? They are not only cute with the little lamp shades, but work better than any plug in I have tried. What can I say..... I am hooked on them.
*I even have a Yankee Candle air freshner for my car* :)

Enjoy your trip BSG!

[bsg1fan1975]

The problem I have with going to their factory is I can never decide which scent I really want for the fall and winter because there is so many. Spring and summer are a breeze to decide. Its kinda like when I go there they see me in the parking lot and go "Lock the doors and don't let her out of here until she has bought at least two or three candles." :rotf: :LOL: :rotf:

[amberstar]

I know what you mean! It's sooo hard to decide...........I finally chose Autum Feast and Pummpkin pie for fall. I bought my standard fragrances too Home Sweet home and the Apple one .

Now it's time to decide on winter :eek:
Snow angels, Hot buttered rum, Jack frost
Citrus and amber, cranberry and pepermint............
decisions have never been so much fun!


It's official I'm a Yankee Nut ;)

[bsg1fan1975]

I try to gage my decsion to what would make the house smell like the holidays. Last year I got Pumpkin Pie for fall and then for Christmas I got Balsam Fir, I think it was called.


This spring I got Hazelnut Coffee, Ocean Waters and Storm Watch. Then this summer in the local store I got Baby Powder and Lilac Blossoms and Sage and Citrus.


I guess this make me one too! Hubby like coming home and walk in to a nice smell from the candle.

[Muffit]

Amber and Bsg, could you tell me more about these candles? My dream has always been to make my home smell like a candle store. I thought I would have to buy a gazillions candles to do that. But if just a few will work....


Thanks!
Muffit

[bsg1fan1975]

Muffit they have a website to shop from. Just do a search for the Yankee Candle Company.

These candles are the best I have found. They not only smell out of this world but burn very well. I used to love home interior candles but they dont even begin to compare with Yankee ones.

[Muffit]

Thanks so much! After we get settled (wherever that may be) I will order some, can't wait!! :)

Leave it to a Klingon to get drunk while the ladies are talking candles!

[bsg1fan1975]

okay so we went on the candle run and what a shock to us when we got there the place was mobbed. They were having a huge sale. Buy one get on 50% off. We got four!

I got Autumn Lodge, Apple Cider, Christmas Eve and French Vanilla. We also bought an ornament for the tree for our Christmas as a married couple.

[shiningstar]

I'm still sick ...vertigo even...So GUESS who had to COOK the KIDS dinner tonight because
HUBBY was to LAZY to do anything for the kids HIMSELF? :cry:

[martok2112]

I say go for it Martok! Thwack away!!:thumbsup:

[shiningstar]

Thanks Rowan thanks Martok :rose::rose:

[bsg1fan1975]

what a major jerk SS has for a hubby.

[doc834]

I guess this is not the conversation that this guy will get into. I have to admit that I get pretty lazy, myself.

[bsg1fan1975]

now doc every guy has his good points its just frustrating when the opposite happens ;)

[repcisg]

Now all us guys have our down days, just like the ladies. But this fella chose his down day at the very worst possable time.

[bsg1fan1975]

god I can't take this pain in my ears no more. I either have a dang cold starting or I have an ear ache! Going to find out what it is tonight when hubby gets home and I go to the doctors!

[Muffit]

(((Bsg))) It's always a really good idea to see a doctor for any ear pain that lasts more than a few days. Often you get ear infections due to throat colds. My spouse in in health care and sometimes people actually die from ear infections - left long enough they go to the brain as well. Checking them early is just the safe thing to do.

:muffit:

[bsg1fan1975]

went last night and the verdict was an ear infection. The doctor has me on antibiotics for two weeks. I have to take 1 pill 3x a day! Otherwise the doc said I was healthy as a horse!

[harryfielder]

''As healthy as a horse''

Forget the pills go find some grass to eat :thumbsup: :LOL:

Aitch,,,,

[doc834]

Going to the doctor was a good idea. Ear infections are easy to get rid of with the right treatment. But ignoring them can be dangerous.

[bsg1fan1975]

humbly following the doctor's instructions even thought I have to choke down the pills.

[shiningstar]

*(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((BSG))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))*
Keeping you in my prayers :rose:

[harryfielder]

All of us should visit the doctor when we feel unwell,,(I nearly left it too late in June)
Get well soon,,

feeling a bit better this morning. I have been chomping on cough drops like crazy. Been eating soup for two days now. I'll be glad when I am feeling 100% again.

[shiningstar]

I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm keeping you in my prayers :rose:

[bsg1fan1975]

thank ya, down to the last two days of antibiotics for the ear infection! Thank god its almost over!

[shiningstar]

I'm glad you're better now Bsg! :rose:

[bsg1fan1975]

thank ya. and monday I was able to get the last pair of curtains done and hung up. Got inspired and for tie backs went to the dollar store here and bought some pretty garland you use on your xmas tree and split that up.

Oh boy, Mother Nature has blessed us early this year. Expecting the first snowfall here in my area late tonight. They think we are only going to get an inch. supposed to start as rain and over the course of the day turn to wet snow and rain and by midnight to all snow! Told hubby to take it easy coming home from work tonight.

[doc834]

I can honestly say that I miss the snow. We don't get much down here in Southern Virginia.

[shiningstar]

We NEED Snow :)

[bsg1fan1975]

its snowing here already. Started off with rain this morning and it gradually changed over.

[shiningstar]

We just got our first real snowfall of the year. I think we got close to two inches :D

[bsg1fan1975]

we got about 2 inches from our first snowfall late Friday into yesterday morning!

[shiningstar]

We have bright sunshine and light fluffly clouds

[bsg1fan1975]

sunny and 50's here

[shiningstar]

It's slightly cloudy and 38* here

[bsg1fan1975]

cloudy and a bit chilly here!

[doc834]

Cloudy, 62, and possible chance of rain.

[shiningstar]

We're having a heat wave now ...........of 46*

this morning ..........but it went all the way up to 22* :star:

[bsg1fan1975]

what the frack is going on with rl anyway? Since my baby sister was hit a couple of weeks ago my other siblings have been accidents also. My brother was in one the day after my bday and last night just as I was falling asleep my mom called and let me know that my older sister and brother in law were rear-ended last night and sis was in the hospital, their van may be a total loss. What did we do to tick off the big guy upstairs anyway?

[doc834]

I find that tragedy tends to come in threes. Maybe that's it.

[shiningstar]

Sadly doc I've heard that too.

[bsg1fan1975]

well thank goodness they all escaped with minor injuries from their respective incidents. my stepdad sent hubby an email at work that my sis and brother in law have rented a van while they wait to see what the insurance company is going to give them for their van which is a total loss from the accounts of the damage I heard about.

[braxiss]

everyone must be enjoying the christmas season else where

[bsg1fan1975]

sorry for the brief absence but hubby had a christmas party monday night for work. The party was being held in a restaurant near my parents so we stayed with them and then came home last night!

[braxiss]

:LOL: :D

[Muffit]

Hey Braxiss and Bsg,

Are you by any chance referring to that earth shattering THX certification logo crescendo at the lead end of many DVDs??? You should see us scrambling desperately for the receiver volume control (aloi!!! where the frack is it!!!???) before the dag nab thing shakes the plaster off the ceiling!!!

Thankfully, they have changed it on the newer DVDs...! Speaking of ceilings, how come there isn't any decibel ceiling limit on mass produced CDs and DVDs??? You put in one, and it's so quiet ya can't hear it without turning your amp/receiver up to its max. Then you plug in another (even from the same studio), and lo and behold, having forgotten you turned the darn thing up, the new one is so loud your ears ring for days and ya gotta practically turn the receiver volume off!!!

Inquiring daggits wanna know... :D
:muffit:

[braxiss]

you guessed it with the thx, and i do agree something needs to be done to create a volume stantard for dvd's




i have to admit that i really love the thx promos because i love watching the windows shake :D

[bsg1fan1975]

muffit you got that right. The other night hubby and I were watching Master and Commander and we had to nearly blast our tv to hear the actors but had to turn it down during the battle scenes.

[shiningstar]

I really needed the laughs today Muffit. I'm still desssssssssssttttttttttttttressssssssssssssing from returning from my in-laws.

[bsg1fan1975]

well grab an ambrosa and have a seat and join the fun. You'll feel better in no time!

[doc834]

Sorry, I can't drink. But I would be happy to be you devistated driver.

[bsg1fan1975]

Went to see Phantom of the Opera at the movies this weekend. It was well worth the price of two tickets totalling $12. Nearly cried a couple of times.

[unowhoandwhy]

I saw Flight of the Phoenix this weekend. I haven't been to a movie theater in almost FOUR years & it was worth the wait! I will be buying the soundtrack, too, it had me tapping my toes!

[bsg1fan1975]

Got a call from my mom late this morning. An old friend of my late step Grandma just passed away last weekend while she was visiting her daughter. This lady was one of the nicest people we had the pleasure of knowing. My mom and I kept in touch with her after Gram died as we all belonged to a charity organization. The wake is tonight and mom knowing that I wouldn't be able to make it there said that she was going with another friend of ours and that she would give my condolences to the family for me.

[Muffit]

[bsg1fan1975]

Eek!


Its my turn to get dumped on now. Entire state is under a winter storm warning. Supposed to get 3-6 in. of snow and ice on top of that!

[unowhoandwhy]

Glad you liked the movie, muffit! How are you enjoying your white winter in the new house?

Speaking of which, I just checked the weather web site & it said it isn't gong to snow in my zip code until 3 AM tomorrow, so what the heck is that white stuff on the ground?!

[bsg1fan1975]

Know what you mean uno. We were not supposed to be getting it until about 9 a.m. but I looked out my window at about 8 a.m. and the white stuff was falling already. Been getting snow showers for most of the day! The worst is supposed to get here later in th evening!

[amberstar]

Weather here is unusually warm, 20 degrees above normal!
Almost like spring weather :blink:

[bsg1fan1975]

hey all from snowy Connecticut!

Yes, we are getting our first major Winter Storm here. And in my neck of the woods I may see up to a 1/2 a foot of the white stuff before we get the ice also!

[amberstar]

Wow, your in a winter wonderland!

Just be careful we had an ice storm here a few years ago, it was a total mess.

[bsg1fan1975]

hubby had to go into work because they didn't close down even though they knew it was coming and it was going to be bad!

I think we got about 4 or 5 inches here from this storm.

[winterrose]

well I have that problem now since I got laidoff!!!

[bsg1fan1975]

[holodoc2000]

tee hee! :D Plus it gives ya a chance to do things to while he away at work. :)

[bsg1fan1975]

[bsg1fan1975]

got over a foot of the white stuff.

[unowhoandwhy]

Only a foot?! Lucky you! I got 21 inches and had to shovel a path to the car (it's about 100 feet from my door to the car) and then shovel out the car! Good thing I have a green Jeep, otherwise I would never have found it!

I feel kind of sorry for the folks in the marritimes right now. On the news last night there was a shot of a house with a snowdrift right up to the roofline.

And one guy was stuck in his house because the snow was piled half way up his front door. He couldn't open it

[holodoc2000]

:eek: :eek: :eek:

:wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

[bsg1fan1975]

my family that lives two hours from me got about 30 inches. Schools are still closed there! Had to go buy a snow shovel Sun. after the snow was over as someone stole both of our shovels . We've left them out before and they were never touched. One was brand new!

[holodoc2000]

:eek: :wtf: :eek: :wtf: :eek:

[bsg1fan1975]

as if the snow shovel incident wasn't bad enough last week, things got worse. My hubby was working a contract job only about 30 miles from our place. He had only been working there about 3 wks. Well, last Wed. night we were walking in the mall when the guy who is his contact at the contracting company calls him to tell him that the client had emailed them and told Tony to tell my hubby not to report to work the next morning. We couldn't believe this was happening.


So up till this morning I had hubby home and driving me nuts. He's doing a week of military duty. He has already had one job interview last Friday and he's got other possibilities for a job in the works.

So this is why I was not here last Thurs and Fri.

I'm sorry I was away so long. I had a number of 'minor' family emergencies to attend to. Mostly, they concerned my kids.

In any case it's good to be back I missed YOU ALL!

...an ink well...
...a book on Cromwell...
... a song called Fare Thee Well...
... we're even having Beef Wellington...
... for dinner!!! :D :D :D

Yes, I am silly. I even had a cousin named Silly (really!).
Err... what's that doctor? Time for my meds? Okay, but do you have to bring them in a wheelbarrow? Can't we just for once take them 10 at a time, you know, 10 a minute for the next few hours???

[bsg1fan1975]

Houston, we have a problem! Muffit got into the blue kool aid again!

[holodoc2000]

Is Muffit ever not in the blue kool aid ?

[bsg1fan1975]

I think she lives in it!

[holodoc2000]

LMAO! :) Mesa thinks someone should snatch Muffits stash of blue kool aid & then hide it from her. ;)

[bsg1fan1975]

Me too!

[Archangel]

That would probably make things worse... ;) :D

Can you imagine her with withdrawal symptoms??? :D

[bsg1fan1975]

I think we'd better rethink the idae if we don't want her to be a grumpy daggit!

[shiningstar]

Glad to see you Muffit :D:

[bsg1fan1975]

whatever you do gang don't drink the kool aid. Leave it for Muffit!

[bsg1fan1975]

ahh....

back from hades and man it feels great!

Hubby just went back to work at his old job today and I am able to get back in here and start posting again after almost a week.

Last week about this time the puter went down and it took till Friday night to fix it! On a sadder note while the puter was down late last week I lost a dear friend of 25 years suddenly. So it was off to my parents for the wake and funeral early this week. Its been one thing after another this week and now I am ready for things to be normal again

[harryfielder]

Since I retired from work in April Mrs Aitch has had me house painting,
(It was easier at work, :LOL: and I got paid :LOL:

Aitch,

[gmd3d]

good to see you back here Harry hows the retirement going painting not included :D

[bsg1fan1975]

glad to see you around again Aitch

[harryfielder]

I'm up to London today 1pm to have a few beers with some of my school mates and one of the guys I've known since 1945, we try to do it once a year,
I'll be back home by 8pm sober (I hope) lol

Aitch,

[bsg1fan1975]

:blink: ack! I just looked at the calendar and realized that the 12th is my first anniversary and i have not gotten my hubby anything yet, nor I have thought about what to get him!:blush: :eek: on top of this, I have to go out tommorrow when its flipping hot (around 80 or better) and get a large skein of white yarn so that I can start working on the project I am doing for comemorating(sp?) his retirement from the navy in October.

How could I let this just slip right up on me and catch me off guard!:wtf: :cry:

[harryfielder]

Someone sent me this from Belgium,,(where do they get them ?) :LOL:

Aitch,

[bsg1fan1975]

ack, I'm tired. I'm running on only 4 hrs of sleep today!

[Muffit]

Just popped in to say HI ALL!.

I was cleaning my old desk drawer, and lookey what I found? (FYI - you had to earn 1,000,000 points in Activision's 2600 cartridge Laser Blast to get one of these - yep, my hands were so sore after 4 hours of that, sheesh, I never tried that again!)...

[peter noble]

What are the cats' names?

Best,

Peter

[Muffit]

Hi Holodoc! Hi Peter! :heart: :heart:

The black and white cat on the right is Brucey, she's a doll, and the orangish one on the left is Mimi (aka Professor Miller) - I just love him to dearth. ;)

We got them both at a shelter last December. Brucey (she was originally Doctor Bruce, till we realized he was a she, contrary to the paperwork), was so scared and messed up she hid for almost 3 weeks behind the washing machine. Now she is fully recovered and a joy to have.

Mimi is just an amazing story. I couldn't decide which to get, and someone said try him, but he didn't seem all that friendly. I took him out, and would you believe, he snuggled up to my neck and started purring and caressing me, just like he'd known me for years? Needless to say, he is my darling dear, and then some! (Wish certain people in my life were more like him, lol!)

Hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday. I will try and take some pics of the cat tunnel I made for them recently and post those too. Thanks so much for your kind replies. :blush:

All my affection,
Muffit
:muffit:

[ernie90125]

Nice to see you around again Muffit......

[bsg1fan1975]

hey muffit. glad to see you still are coming after these pesky cylons with the rest of the gang!

[Muffit]

Hi Ernie and Bsg1fan, and thank you ;)

Okay, finally got around to taking some shots of our (now infamous) cat tunnel. It was much harder than we thought in some ways (humidity under the house), and easier in others. I wanted to go thru the floor cuz all our walls are brick, which I really love but it's not the easiest substance to cut, lol. This way we could just make a little tunnel that passed thru the crawlspace vent that was already there. I lined the wood tunnel with some carpet I got for only $5, put a regular plastic lockable cat door where the vent was, and attached one of those neat 10 foot Kittywalk tunnels to the outside wall where the tunnel lets out. The cats just love it! Mimi and Brucey spend all day catching flies and trying to crouch and spring at the squirrels, pretty birds and curious lizards in the yard. I'm so glad I finally thought of something that actually worked, lol. :)

I'm actually not quite done with it yet, one of the supporting house beams is kinda in the way as you can see. I didn't carpet it yet cuz I wanna ask a contractor if we can notch the bottom of it a bit safely so my precious Mimi will fit better. (Yep, I feed him too much, the poor dear ;) ).

Anywho, here's the pics...

:muffit:

P.S... and yes, that's a child drawer saftey lock I use to hold the hatch open (hey, go with what ya know), and a bit of duct tape I used to hold the plastic cat door open till they learned to use it (which I just realized I forgot to remove before taking the picture, shoot).

[bsg1fan1975]

gotta run, hubby will be coming home and I still have to make dinner!
