"thursday-one" (31)

[slick]

When I bought my first condo in 1996 it had a wood fireplace and I sure miss it....the cats too. It was a lot of work to carry up boxes of firewood to the 2nd floor, but worth it. Now I have a gas fireplace; Speckles loves it, but it's just not the same. That's one of the reasons this bar is so popular; the wood fireplace.

Slick , I remember us dancing to Rocky Racoon, I just don't know how you got up there in the ceiling fan. The next thing I remember is.... everybody taking asprins and holding their heads.

Anymore asprins left?

Great job cleaning up everyone - THANKS

Gini - sorry about the candy cane decorations glued to your <ahem> - nevermind.

We'll try to be better next week. Hopefully, Richard and the puppy will be able to join us.

Slick - would those be your garments that Corinna is refering to?

T&P - aren't men just too stubborn at times?

lb - my husband is such a pyro - he would be very envious over having such a big tree to cut up and burn.

We made a fire in our fireplace last night. Jan absolutely loves sprawlng out in front of it. Sid also like it but he likes to sit in a box. Its a 12 pound cat box and he's a 15 pound cat so its quite the sight. Joxer doesn't really care for the fire - he'd rather be snoozing on the bed.

Well I have all my clothes on except I can't find my socks. I must have taken them off to climb the ladder to get the knickers off the ceiling fan.

Come to think of it, did I even have socks on to begin with??? Oh well, off to the lost and found I go.

Slick, I would be really careful if I were you..........heaven only knows what you will find in the lost and found!

[slick]

It's OK Gini. I've got my rubber gloves on...

[slick]

EWWWWWW, for the regulars, you don't want to go back there to the lost and found. You would not believe what I saw there
- several colours of men's boxer shorts
- several sizes of bras

(I assume these two came from the rafters....)

- a whole box full of lonely socks (no I didn't rifle through to find mine)
- some Hawaiian lays and a couple of grass skirts
- 2 halves of a coconut (we all know who wore those....)
- some wigs
- there's even a Poodle Skirt back there.

well, I could go on and on but I just wanted to warn you. It's not a pretty sight. I'll be spending the next two days Mall Hopping just to get it out of my mind.

[gini]

OMG was the poodle still in the skirt? I remember that day!!

Maybe we ought to post a notice and have people come back and pick this stuff up!

[RICHARD]

lol,

people from Cah lee fuh nee ah are very sensitive to cold weather-
when it gets below 72 we freak out.

I rented a log splitter....no swinging an axe for this kid.....
My dad split wood until he turned 79.......thunk, thunk, thunk....
he was my hero.

puppy pics.......yeah, get the sucker to sit still for photos??? good luck..i literally have to sneak up on him- and then he wont sit still...

vacation has been just that -------WORK AND MORE WORK!

Today i'll be fixing a screen installing a door and starting on a roof.........



And I did need time away from any computer............

my batteries are recharging..

thanks for keeping the place going, guys and gals....


YOU ALL ROCK!!!


P.S.

save the Gini pics for me, o.k.?

Richard, too bad your name isn't Chuck...

How much wood would a Woodchuck chuck
If a Woodchuck could chuck wood
A Woodchuck could chuck just as much wood
As a Woodchuck could chuck wood.

Slick and Tray, I wish you were my next door neighbors! You girls are a riot! LOL!

Richard, maybe you could come here and open up another bar. We girls will need a place to go with a humorous bartender.
Mahayana, we will need you there, too. We need our veggies, and a guy to dance with.

Richard dances.....well, at least he gets up on the floor and moves alot.....I call it dancing but some might view it as a spastic response to stimuli

amoore: you'll have to keep you eye on the meetings forum. Sometimes there are meeting arranged in certain areas. If it's close enough to where you live, maybe I could attend. If you are not too far away for Kal EEE For Nigh Eh, Gini will be having a BBQ next July. Keep it in mind, but beware of Richard's slushies. I hear they are worse that the Poinsettia's we had last Thursday.
