HATE - July 7

August

Cathlete
Hi guys! :7 :7

Mom is on her way to my place for dinner now so I'm going to have to make this quick!



JENNIFER - Are you still totally sore?

You know, you really have an active fun-sounding life --- kayaking, fishing, walks near the water.....that's totally cool.


MICHELE - Yay! Are you bathing in peace and quiet? Did you go out for a nice meal with your DH?

>I'm trying to figure out what to do with the table settings. What if I put little boxes of chocolates at each place setting? What do you guys think?

Horrible, horrible idea. This will distract all the guests from the special day and instead put them in the position of wondering whether or not it is rude to open their chocolates and eat them right there and then. And some guests will want to steal other guests' boxes to have more chocolates for themselves because the boxes are too small, making for a very stressful situation for all involved.

Wait a minute, I'm supposed to be rushing LOL.

I LOVE when I see chocolates at my seat. Who the heck doesn't LOVE to see chocolates where they're going to be seated? Fabulous idea. That's all I gotta say. Can I come to the party?

>I'm not playing any of those dopey games -- LMAO!!! I hate games -- hate them -- HATE!!

LMAO. Tell me about it. I was once invited to a wedding party of someone I really didn't know that well (so I didn't really know anybody else, either), and there was some #*+>% up game where we were chosen partners of the opposite sex and then the woman had to - get this - take a ping pong ball, roll it up one pant leg of the partner's and get it down the other pant leg as fast as she could to "win" the prize.

I was of an age where I felt shy to refuse to play the game, and so I very, very begrudgingly did it. Needless to say I did not win the prize. And neither did my partner LOL.

>Macbook laptop!

OMG, AWESOME! I'm writing to you from mine, too! Does yours have a camera on it for iChat? (Don't get scared LOL.)



Okay, Mom's coming any minute!

I'll be back later!! :* :* :* :* :*
 
Hello Haters.

How are you all?

One more week till vacation and I'm not sure what I will be doing. Last night, after reading a thread in OD, I created a profile on Yahoo Personals cause I'm tired of match and eharmony. Both Denise and I discussed while kayaking and driving that nothing has changed with the men.
My neighbour fixed my lawn mower (for free). He actually tuned it up so I will be getting rid of my lawn service. He told me I need to get a new blade and he will install. A gift card to Lowe's will be his thank you gift or a restaurant where he can take his wife.

Denise and I are discussing Labor Day plans now.
More bad storms are coming through MI today and tomorrow.

Have a Great Day!!
 
Hiya!! http://www.mysmileyz.com/smilies/teddybear.gif

I've been having such a good time this morning http://www.pic4ever.com/images/184.gif . It all started around midnight when our power went out http://www.mysmileyz.com/smilies/annoyed.gif . Then right away, first thing this morning, our toilet overflowed. http://www.mysmileyz.com/smilies/pullhairout.gif

I have decided to send DH off to plumbing school. I mean, I just paid $120 to some guy who was here for about 15 minutes. http://www.mysmileyz.com/smilies/Impatient.gif

I'm making great progress on my bridal shower. Everyone is in agreement that games are stupid :p . I ordered the candy -- 4 ct boxes of chocolates -- each with a mint meltaway, a peanut butter meltaway, butter toffee, and a caramel }( :9 . I still need to order a cake and flowers for the tables, choose the menu, and mail the invitations. Oh, and buy a gift. Am I missing anything? What all is a bridal shower hostess supposed to do? I really have no freaking clue. I haven't hosted a bridal shower in at least 20 years, and it's probably been 10 or 12 since I've been to one. :eek:

Guess what I just ordered? A kettlebell workout :eek: :D . Everywhere I go people are raving about the dang kettlebells! This is what I ordered: http://www.beacon-fitness.com/Media.html . I only bought the workout -- I'm going to look for kettlebells locally. I'll do that while I'm waiting for Augie to start the fake STS rotation. :D

AUGIE -- I don't know about the chat thing. I suppose I have it but I have NO CLUE how to use it. I love the laptop, but I'm still not entirely comfortable with it. The track pad takes a bit of getting used to -- and just trying to figure out how to do things that I normally so with a mouse. I'm pretty awkward with it at this point, but it is pretty fun to be able to go anywhere in my house and use a computer! :D

JENNIFER -- that was so nice of your neighbor to help you out with your lawnmower. I'm sure he'll really appreciate the gift card, too. Good luck with Yahoo personals. I hope you think of something fun to do on your vacation! :)

Hello to EVERYBODY else! I have a lot to do, and after that plumbing fiasco I'm way behind. I'll BBL to see who's around. :*
 
Hello, I'm back! :)


JENNIFER - I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some fun news from the new personals profile you made!

Where are you and Denise thinking to go for Labor Day?

Wow, that's nice of your neighbor to help you out like that. And your ideas for a thank-you are great. I'm sure he and his wife will enjoy it.



MICHELE - Power out and an overflowing toilet! Let the festivities begin! LOL. Jeez, that sounds awful.

The chocolates you got sound sooooo dang good. I need to get myself to See's. I haven't been to a bridal party in AGES and wouldn't have any idea if you're forgetting something. That all sounds like stuff a bride's maid-of-honor would do. I've been maid-of-honor at 2 weddings and did a horrible job so I can't give any advice! But it sounds like you've got it all down.

Except for the stripper, of course. }(

LOL, I keep reading about the kettlebell workouts, too. Tell me how it is, and tell me that it's not good please, no matter what you think of it.

Did I not say that having a mobile computer is awesome? Did you get Air-Mac so you can be connected to the internet wherever you go in your house? You MUST!


Okay, it's past 2am now so I'm going to get ready for beddy now.

See you tomorrow!

Laters! :*
 
Hello Haters.

Kind of tired from the weekend, but looking forward to this coming weekend and my week off.

Some good news on the yahoo, there has been lots of viewing of my profile since yesterday. 7 free days till next monday.

Also, I plan to get my blade and gift card for my neighbour. I'm thinking one from Lowe's.
