I know that every vote should count but both states were warned that if they held their primaries so early, their votes would not be counted and they went ahead anyway.  So maybe all the people that were protesting afterwards should have been protesting beforehand to make sure the rules were followed, instead of wanting to be the first to vote.  I know there has been such an uproar and I have heard the Republicans blamed for trying to &quot;disenfranchise&quot; them, but it was the DNC that put that rule into play in the first place, not the RNC.

On average we like to leave after breakfast, it takes us about 45-60 minutes to get the RV ready for the road (cleaning the gray and black tanks, disconnecting from sewer, electric and water, lifting jacks and levelers, attaching the brake buddy to the car, hooking up the car to the tow system of the RV etc) then most days we also have to figure in time to stop at a gas station (one that can take long rigs) so with all of this additional PT we usually drive 300-400 miles which gets us to our next destination 3-4 pm... then takes us about 30 minutes to setup and finally sit down and RELAX.

Just dropped in to say I am still here.<br />Last week was really crazy with the holiday, being in my buildings for 3 out of the 4 working days, working 6 days out of 7 at Kohls and my FIL having a couple of set backs.  Of course this week is my crazy week with my main job.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone that has been partaking of the sales at Kohl&#39;s always nice to know that there will be money for the paycheck  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> <br /><br />My FIL did not get off of the vent until Wens (this was a week after the surgery) than on Thursday they began testing for a liver blockage or cancer of the liver.  On Friday as they were getting ready to transport him for these test they discovered fluid around the heart again and wanted to go back in and do more surgery.  They asked that all kids be present.  This went well and while in there discovered an anuersym which they took care of.  After we all left they called my MIL to let her know that his heart rate had dropped to 32 and that they gave him medicine to get it back up but wanted permission to put in a pacemaker at bedside if needed.  As of right now he is doing pretty well.<br /><br />In the meantime Mandy&#39;s fiancee&#39;s grandfather had open heart surgery.  He is doing as well as expected for right now.<br /><br />This weekend took mom shopping for a dress for the wedding for which we got one and than off to graduation open houses and work.<br /><br />Well want to go rest for a while before bed.  Everyone take care and have a good week.','kmills','kmills','2008-06-02 02:55:22',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(290828,3913,1,18,290771,'2008-06-02 03:43:11',NULL,'','Hi Crazies <br /><br />Well, survived another weekend, kinda sorta&#33;  Sore is the word for today&#33;  Spredad the rest of the dirt which required digging up two large plants, then after placing the dirt, replanting them.

My digital camera is not behaving so I only took a few pics with that but will try to lighten then and post them later.  June is a very busy month in our house.   On the 12th Paige turns 8 - on the 16th brother Doug hits the big 60 and baby brother Bill turns 55 on the 18th and my baby Deb turns 38 on the 21st.   Throw in a couple of graduations along the way as well as Father&#39;s Day  and June is a very expensive month in our house.<br /><br />Joey - thanks again for starting off the day and month yesterday.<br /><br />Cheryl - congratulations to Scotty on his graduation.    Ash doesn&#39;t graduate til next Monday but is  all excited.  Are you taking Scotty to California or Florida to Disney.   He must be so excited and as much as I said Jim &amp; I went &quot;for the kids benefit&quot; we had a ball ourselves.   I&#39;m sure you and Greg will have a wonderful time with him.    How long will you be there?  <br /><br />Jackie - you must be so very busy.    I hope you have a wonderful trip cross-country.   Hopefully you will have wonderful news by the time to arrive there.  <br /><br />Ed - Jason moves the Dock around at the beginning of every month just to keep us all on our toes.  <br /><br />Tonia - Happy 2nd Anniversary with CruiseCrazies.

I&#39;m glad there was a Dr. in the house when that bill came.   Wow.   Happy Birthday to both Lynda and your granddaughter.<br /><br />Karla - sorry things are not going well with you FIL.  Sending prayers his way.<br /><br />Time to get Jim up, moving and off to work.   He picked up his work car last night and the door is all smashed in so he needs to find out what that is all about.   If his partner had another accident this could get serious as the company has a 3 strikes and you&#39;re out rule and he had an accident a couple of months ago.   I have lots of errands to do including getting Crazie shipped off to Carmen for her Med cruise.

I hope everyone is well this morning and enjoying some beautiful  weather.

Did you plan things that way on purpose?   <br /><br />Steve - hope you had a great anniversary celebration.    Any hints as to the birthday/anniversary gift?   <br />Come on - you can tell us, we won&#39;t tell Lynda.<br /><br />Jenn - sounds like a fun time at school even if it was a bit messy.    <br /><br />Sue - glad you are keeping busy with so many projects.     I&#39;m sure those gifts will mean a lot to your friends because they were made with love.   <br /><br />Tonia - don&#39;t make us send out the Posse looking for you.   Hope you are well and just busy right now.   <br /><br />Maria - missing you also on the dock.  Hope you are feeling better.<br /><br />Deb - Don&#39;t overdo it on that foot.   My DD did the same thing after her surgery - got cabin fever and began doing too much and ended up paying for it.    <br /><br />Andrea - hope your parents had a wonderful anniversary.<br /><br />Cheryl - I&#39;m sure Scotty is very excited about his trip.    I wonder how many times you and Greg will hear &quot;are we there yet&quot; as you work your way to California.   Just remember to bring lots and lots of &#036;&#036;.   <br /><br />Time to get Jim moving and start his day.     I&#39;m going this morning to buy one of those pop up gazebos for our deck.

I did manage to have breakfast out with my friend who&#39;s son is getting married on Saturday so at least I got some rest today. Good news is Dad went to see the surgeon and they will wait 3 months and redo the doppler test on his heart to get a better gauge on what&#39;s going on. He&#39;s suspicious how the blockage increased so much and will have Dad tested at his offfice not the hospital this time. We have a reprive for now.<br /><br /> I really did rest and do nothing while we were on the ship. Never even got off at either port.....LOL. Just sat by the pool and read, and then moved to a deck 7 under the lifeboats for the cooler breezes in the afternoon both days. I think this is the laziest I&#39;ve ever been but I knew what I was coming home to so I took advantage of the time. The food was pretty good this time around but I don&#39;t go for the food of course. The drinks were excellent and the service the also excellent. I had my Chocolate Martini pre-dinner on formal night and I enjoyed it very much as I was watching the sunset from the Viking Crown (full ocean view).

Yesterday was a very long and stressful day and the end result is that TJ will need surgery for his nose problems.   The surgery is relatively minor, however they are looking for a blood problem that is the underlying cause of this problem and that will take time.     They drew blood but it will be more than a week before they get the results back (it could be a serious BUT very treatable problem) but the hemotologist does not have an opening until September and the ENT does not want to wait that long to do the procedure.   They will have to fight that one out among themselves.   His cardiologist has given the OK for the surgery as long as there is a pediatric cardiology aenestitist (sp)<br />in the OR.   It will most likely be the Dr. who put him out for his open heart surgery so that made Deb &amp; Mike feel a little better.   This poor little guy just can&#39;t seem to catch a break.   Deb said they took 7 vials of blood from TJ so they will probably be calling now to tell her he is anemic.   <br /><br />Ed &amp; Rose - have a great trip and enjoy.    Travel safely.   How long will it take you to get to Albuquerque?<br /><br />Jenn - the air would definately be blue around here if Jim tried to put up wainscotting. It was bad enough when he took down the panelling.   Hope your latest project comes out the way you want.   <br /><br />Deb &amp; Sue - congrats on the Red Wings Win.  Never did get into hockey but glad you enjoyed the game.<br /><br />Jackie - I&#39;m so sorry about your latest RV problems.  You have been working so hard to get packed up and moved out.    Guess you really can&#39;t do anything but wait now.   Is it a very important part they are waiting for or something that can wait til you get to Ca.?<br /><br />Rose - Great news about your Dad.   I&#39;m sure you are quite relieved.    You must be busy now getting your kitchen set up for the big re-do.   We&#39;d love to see some before and after pics.   <br /><br />Maria - boy you have a full house but I&#39;m sure you will all manage for awhile til DD finds a place of their own.   Then your house will be so quiet&#33;<br /><br />A pretty quiet day planned today - had some crazy weather with tornados in parts of the state and Del. last night but looks OK out for now.    Next week we are expecting a full week of 90+ temps.<br /><br />Hope everyone has a great day - make it special and make it your own.   I&#39;ll check back later on after I get a few things done.   <br /><br /><br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-05 12:52:34',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(291703,2613,1,18,290771,'2008-06-05 14:49:53',NULL,'','Good Morning:<br /><br />Mary Lou, I so sorry to hear about TJ, poor baby, I will keep him in my prayers.<br />Welcome back Rose, and that is great news about your Dad.<br />Ed and Roe, travel safely.<br />Jackie, sorry to hear about your RV problems, hopefully everything will work out fine.<br />Marie, I remember the days when it was seven of us, now it’s only two; I miss my daughters but love the quiet.<br />To my CruiseCrazies family, have a great day.<br /><br /><br />','mercedes','mercedes','2008-06-05 14:49:53',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(291727,3642,1,18,290771,'2008-06-05 15:59:15',NULL,'','hi everyone <br />still excited over the Red Wings winning <br />get up little earlier to take Pappy out. have errands to do today  <br />so i better get ready <br /><br />Hi Joey<br /><br />Debbie still in heaven? heh<br /><br />have good day everyone<br /><br />','lovelypinky','lovelypinky','2008-06-05 15:59:15',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(291731,2066,1,18,290771,'2008-06-05 16:59:33',NULL,'','Morning Guys...

Mary Lou, I am so sorry.  I cannot even imagine how hard it is to see the little guy suffer one malady after another.  I will certainly be keeping him, his family, and you and Jim in my prayers.  Jackie, we discovered when we had our RV that there wasn&#39;t such a thing as an inexpensive repair.  Hope they do get it fixed for you today so you can continue on with your plans.  Shari, Rose, and Karla -I am so happy that the Robert Gardner storyline is over.  I am even more thrilled that Tad knows that Kathy is his daughter.  It will be a real tear jerker when he tells her that Julia is dead and that he is her father.  I was very happy that Richie hasn&#39;t had any onscreen time in a while, but J.R. did say yesterday that he is going after him, so guess he will be on air in the next few days.   Tonia, no, we won&#39;t be going to San Diego to go to Sea World - I thought there was one close to Disney, but after reading your post and checking online, I saw that there were only 3 - San Diego, Orlando and San Antonio.  Scotty will just have to be happy with DisneyLand and LegoLand.  Between those 2 places and the beach, we still barely have time to breath - guess that will have to wait until the trip home&#33;&#33;&#33;  Ed, guess you are already on the road.  Hope you and Roe have a great trip.  We had bad storms yesterday.  I had to go run errands and it started raining as soon as I pulled back into the neighborhood.  As soon as I got home, it started hailing - thank God my car was safely in the garage by then.  There was 3 tornadoes touch down, but miracuously, there was no structures where they touched, so no damage or injuries.  Had a hard time sleeping last night due to all the lightning and very loud thunder.  It is cold and cloudy today - they said we would get rain, but haven&#39;t seen any thusfar.

I appreciate it more than you will ever know.    It is going to be a long summer before they get this all straightened out as they will not touch him til they get a final diagnosis from Hemotology and hemotology won&#39;t see him til he gets clearance from Cardiology but at least the wheels are in motion and he can finally get some relief.   You have no idea how bad these bleeds are and ENT has now told Deb that once he has bled for more than 8 minutes to call 911.   They are looking for a very rare blood problem (not hemophelia - but kind of like that) which effects children with congenital heart problems so they could be on the right track - let&#39;s hope so.  I&#39;m so glad they decided to take him back to St. Christophers in Philadelphia.  They were getting nowhere locally.   <br /><br />Steve - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Lynda.   I&#39;m sure you have a special day planned for her.   Stay safe with your nasty weather.<br /><br />Tonia - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Gary.    Hope he enjoys his special day.  Hope you have gotten you car back and it is running fine and nice and cool.   <br /><br />Jenn - if you have a few extra dollar lying around, buying stock in ToysRUs might not be a bad idea.  lol I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time there before this nose bleed problem is straightened out.<br /><br />Maria - I&#39;m so glad you enjoyed Jersey Boys.   I have heard it is great.   Hope to get to see it once day soon.<br /><br />Rose - you&#39;ll be amazed how well your kids do fending for themselves once they move out.   I was sure David would starve when he first moved out - now he does all the family cooking and is excellent at it.<br /><br /><br />Jackie - any word from Ca. yet?   Hope things are going well out there.  OUCH as far as the RV goes - that must have hurt but better now than when you are on the road.    What will you do with the RV when you are at the B&amp;B.  Do they have room for it there or will you need to store it again.<br /><br />Joey - Keeping my  fingers crossed that all goes well for You &amp; David in November and the last hurdle is cleared for you to marry.<br /><br />Ed - hope you &amp; Roe are having a good trip.<br /><br />Shari - stay safe with the bad weather.   Keeping busy isn&#39;t a bad thing unless you can&#39;t stop by here to say Hi.<br /><br />Sue - how is the project coming along?  <br /><br />Andrea, Karla, Gail, - hope you are OK and just busy.    We miss you.<br /><br />Hope everyone has a great day today - please stay safe - nasty weather seems to be all over the place.   We are entering a heat wave period now so I guess it is time to put the AC on.

Still have to iron Howie&#39;s shirt for the wedding tomorrow and I&#39;m still not sure which dress I want to wear since it&#39;s an outdoor wedding next to the beach.

We traveled 450 miles in 7 hours.  A loooong way in 94 degree weather.  We didn&#39;t want to run the A/C to conserve gas, so we just used the fans on top of the windshield.

Jud trailers his motorcycle and he and Greg spend almost every day that week either riding their bikes, or taking our atv&#39;s to the mountains.  Thy always come in July, but they have a new grandchild due this July so plan to stay in Texas.  They had suggested coming at the end of June but that is when we take Scotty to DisneyLand.  August is our annual anniversary trip and then Greg&#39;s parents are coming out the week after we get back from that.

I called Greg at the office to make sure he could take that whole week off, and he said to tell them to &quot;c&#39;mon down&quot;.

Did you end up coordinating your outfits?  <br /><br />Cheryl - When Bev is visiting amd  the guys are out doing their own thing perhaps you can discuss, and decide, to join the Crazies on our group cruise next year.   I also have the cruise IQ game in an unopened box but our cruise friends are coming to visit June 20th for the weekend and I plan on trying it out then.   <br /><br />Jenn - a seafood buffet with crab legs and then  dessert - it doesn&#39;t get much better than that.  Glad you had a good time.    If you run out of things to organize, I could sure use some help.   I even promise to stay out of your way and let you get me organized.   <br /><br />Sue - where are you going to go camping?    I&#39;m not much of a camper.   I always told my cousins who love to camp that I would go with them when they find a camp grounds that also had a 4 star hotel in it.  hehe<br /><br />Tonia - I bet you are busy at work with overheating cars in this weather.   How was Gary&#39;s birthday?  Hope he enjoyed it.   <br /><br />Time to get moving and get some things done.   Deb did not tell me that I had to set up my own web page for this heart association walk and I&#39;m having an awful time getting the picture on it.    I have to have the site up and running by kick-off day on the 19th and considering I don&#39;t have a clue what I am doing this should be interesting.

Keep walking on her property and you will be on her parents property (Frankie &amp; Jerry)...That is how it is around here a lot.  Grown children buy property off of there parents and build houses...That is what Jerry and I did &amp; that is how I am able to be close by to my parents...anyway, <br />My Mother always listens to the police scanner.  anytime something happens she is going to know about it&#33;  all of sudden I get this desperate call and she is telling me that Frankie &amp; Jerry&#39;s  house is on fire...I almost panic because Traci had picked up my girls to take them to play with her girls and she could had very well  stopped at her Mother&#39;s house for all I knew&#33;  It wouldn&#39;t had been out of the ordinary&#33;  <br /><br />I run outside, yell at Jerry and then we hear the sirens and see the smoke through the woods...OMG...Just as we are leaving my Mother calls me back and she says she is not sure if it is Frankie&#39;s house or her neighbors, all she knows for sure is Frankie called in the 911 call<br />We Race around the road and finally see when we turn the corner it is not Traci&#39;s Mother house but their very next door neighbor&#39;s house fully engulfed in flames.  Frankie is standing out in her yard and I run over to her and hug her and tell her what I thought.  <br />Then Traci pulls up with all the girls from her house...<br /><br />So we ended up watching our fabulous volunteer fire dept. fight a house fire to no avail last night.  The house was a total lost. <br /> <br />It was sad especially for our friends bec. the house used to belong to Traci&#39;s Dad&#39;s brother until he passed away.   <br /><br />Well I am sure this is long and confusing enough so I best stop.

The heat wave continues for us and schools closed early yesterday and will close early again today.   Since schools end this week anyway, why they are even opening them is beyond me. Some businesses closed as well - this is a very dangerour heat wave and being in and out yesterday really affected my breathing so I am staying put today and doing nothing.    The graduation yesterday was very cute - Ash is now on her way to 1st grade.  (Is there any connection between this fact and the fact that both 1st frade teachers are leaving at the end of this term - NAH&#33;)  She did so well at the graduation - never missed a beat with the rather lengthly reading she had to do during mass.   A bit after we got home she lost her first tooth - so it was a big big day for her.<br /><br />Jackie - What a scare for you both.   Hope the tire is replaces (YIKES are they expensive) and you are now safely back on the road.     Travel safely&#33;<br /><br />Ed - Welcome back - Glad your trip and the wedding went well.   I can just see you tearing around LV in a cute little Mercedes.    Actually Jim &amp; I had our AARP meeting yesterday and when we pulled into the parking lot were laughing over several sporty looking convertibles and even a motorcycle or two.  <br /><br />Jenn - Sorry the semester is over for your littles but glad you were able to get Ashley&#39;s number and will stay in touch with her.   Some rules were made to be broken and it sounds like this was one of them.   I&#39;m sure she is happy to still have you as part of her life.<br /><br />Andrea - what a terrible scare for you with the fire.   Glad everyone got out safely although the house was totaled.    The lives are much more important than material things.   <br /><br />Deb - good luck with the liver scan.  Will be sending prayers and good wishes that all goes well.   <br /><br />Steve - have fun dog watching.    That little dog sounds like a brave little pup, (but maybe not too smart challenging your much bigger dog)  <br /><br />Carmen - keeping your step-dad in our prayers and well as your uncle.   Have you packed yet - you are running out of time.  lol<br /><br />Joey - you must be busy - we are missing you here.   <br /><br />Well, time to throw in some laundry and get a few things done.   The good thing about staying in today is I should get my Heart Association page up and running.    I can&#39;t believe the campaign starts next week - I still need to find Red outfits for the kids to year to the kick-off.  As soon as I get it up and running I&#39;ll let you know so you can take a look if you like.  <br /><br />Make today special - stay safe and stay cool.   Be back later on.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-10 14:06:46',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(292724,2066,1,18,290771,'2008-06-10 15:23:49',NULL,'','Good Morning Crazies...<br />Sorry I have been MIA so much the past couple of days ..David and I are considering a major addition to our household so we were discussing and I was exploring all the possibilities..

Some of the lightning sparked fires yesterday. It&#39;s been so dry here for so long any rain is wonderful but we could do without the lightning.

They never have enough cashiers so it seems to take forever&#33; Back to kitchen packing today. I will be done on Thursday for sure and then we&#39;ll be using paper plates for the duration. <br /><br />Joey I wish you and David hapiness no matter what you decide to do. Raising a child is a rewarding job even though it&#39;s sometimes very frustrating. The good days outweigh the bad. If you decide to go forward you&#39;ll have lots of help from all of us here.

I got a speeding ticket for going 12 miles over the limit and thought Howie would kill me.......2 weeks later he got a ticket too so we were even.<br /><br />Sue, Shari &amp; Debbie looks like your rain is returning today.

I also hope your sons hair came out nice.    lol   Glad you got a good report from the surgeon on your eyes.   Isn&#39;t it remarkable what they can do.   I know our Dave still marvels at the difference the surgery made to him.<br /><br />Jenn - sorry - Home Depot doesn&#39;t have any ark plans - we looked awhile ago.   Hope you get some sunshine soon.<br /><br />Jackie - today should be the big day for the news you are waiting for.   Hope all goes well - travel safe&#33;<br />I never thought to ask but will you move permanently to Ca. to run the Inn or is this a part-time job?<br /><br />Shari - any news from the Dr. on the glucose test?   Hope all goes well.<br /><br />I need to shift into high gear and get some things done today if I am having Company in a week.   Next week will be busy with Heart Association appearances for the kids so I&#39;d better get some menus made and sleeping arrangements worked out and the guest room cleaned out.   I&#39;ll be back later on.<br /><br />Make today special and stay safe and stay cool.<br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-12 13:36:27',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(293265,2066,1,18,290771,'2008-06-12 15:44:48',NULL,'','Good Morning Guys...<br /><br />No plans today except for changing a light switch in the kitchen... it has been reduced to working 50% of the time... then I have groceries to get...has anyone else noticed how the price of beef goes up during the week of Fathers Day&#33;<br />MaryLou Good luck on the Campaign hope you reach your goals with your spoke persons ..

Just popped in for a moment to say Hi.  It has been a crazy few days.  The FIL is doing better and they are talking about bringing him home tomorrow.  Don&#39;t think it is a wise move but that is what the doctor is telling them.<br />Mandy&#39;s finacee&#39;s grandfather on the other hand is not doing well at all.  They started waking him up last Friday and than on Sat. he had a stroke and now is unresponsive again.  They put a trach in Tues. and yesterday they were suppose to put a stomach tube in.  Sunday evening they thought they were going to lose him.<br />The kids did not get the house they put the offer in on, the bank is going to let it go up for a tax sale and if they did buy it they could not move in for a year because they current owners have a year to bring taxes current and move back in.  They did go look at another place this past Tuesday and it possibly can work, DIL&#39;s parents just want to look at it also.  It has only been a month and I am ready to have the house back to us.<br />On a happier note, Mandy called me yesterday to tell me the the Indianapolis Motor Speedway offered her a permanent full time job with them.  This would include full benefits, paid vacation and paid holidays along with a small raise.  When she interviewed with them they told her that they did not hire any of their interns.  So this will be a first.  She has until September to decide if she wants to stay with them.<br /><br />Joey - Congrats on thinking about becoming foster parents.

Got a message from Midwest Airlines that they changed the flight times for our cruise in Sept. With Dad&#39;s oxygen we have to take a direct flight and they have oth only non-stop flights.  Of course the moved the times up and we were in real trouble to make the flight back.  Got them on the phone and they changed our flight to Sunday.  We have relatives in Orlando so this will give us another day with them so it worked out.  Leaving KC, the flight was moved to 7AM which means we will have to leave the house by 4:30AM.  That will be painful but it will work.<br /><br />We are in another tornado warning.  Looks like it will be here in another hour.  I think we are getting tired of this&#33;<br /><br />Last night a tornado hit a Boy Scout camp about 30 miles north of Omaha, Ne.  Unfortunatley 4 scouts were killed.  Keep their families in your prayers.<br /><br />Andrea...We have had the pleasure of my parents living with us for 15 years.  Lost Mom a 1-1/2 years ago.

The usual amount in a multi-vitamin that&#39;s recommended is 400 IU&#39;s per day.

Greg is out atv&#39;ing with his friends again as he won&#39;t get to go for a while.  We will be away on vacation the next 2 weekends and the weekend after we get back is the 4th of July so it will be mid-July before he gets to go again, although he does have another 3 day camping/atv trip coming up towards the end of July.  I ran out today to get a few things as another Father&#39;s Day project came to mind last night.  Greg chews bubble gum all the time.  KMart carries these small white buckets that have 300 pieces of Super Bubble in them, and I have to buy one about every 2 weeks for him.  Well, he has been out of gum for awhile because KMart isn&#39;t carrying them anymore.  I came up with the idea to buy a 5 gallon bucket, decorate it and fill it with bubble gum.  I went to Lowe&#39;s and got a white bucket, then went to Michael&#39;s and bought scrapbooking paper and 3-D stickers and then to Target and bought bubble gum.  I went to the party store to get the gum, but their bags only came in assorted flavors and he only likes the original.  I bought all the bags that Target had - 21 of them.  I came home and decorated the bucket, putting a sign on the front that says &quot;Dad&#39;s Bubble Gum&quot;  and then covered it with clear contact paper so the stickers stay on.  I filled it to the top, it holds 1,530 pieces of bubble gum, so he has a few packages for back up when he runs out.  It is hot here today - around 90 - and when I was out, I discovered that my car&#39;s air conditioner is blowing hot air.  Not a good thing, especially when you are getting ready to leave on vacation.  I called the Cadillac dealer and they said they could get it in on Tuesday - thank God, it is under warranty.  I had more errands I wanted to run but it was too hot to stay in that car too long, so I will do them tomorrow when Greg can take me in his truck.

We were able to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather.  It looks like it may be nice all week.  Getting kind of excited...we are leaving Saturday to go up North to our timeshare at the lake for one week.  It was Marc&#39;s folk&#39;s timeshare, and we bought it after they died. We were going to go up last year but my mom had to have hip surgery then so we have never stayed there, yet...so we are looking forward to going.  I hope to get some nice walking in and check out some of the small towns around there.  Haven&#39;t been up that way for many years.  Hope we can get out on the lake...we don&#39;t have our boat anymore so we would have to rent one.

Sometimes the effects of meds can do so much damage and harm you in such strange ways.    <br /><br />Sue - glad you had fun with your Sister and her family.<br /><br />Rose - good luck with the kitchen - it will be a crazy week but will be well worth it when it is done.<br /><br />Time to begin my week - need to make sure all the bed linens and extra towels are freshened up as having 6 house guests causes you to use things that haven&#39;t been used in ages (or since the last time they were all here)  Also have to go return Ash&#39;s dress for Thursday.   We went crazy trying to find just the right dress and now last night I noticed a big pull on the skirt.   I sure hope they have another one.   At any rate, it means another trip to the mall and everyone knows you can&#39;t just run into the mall, return something and then leave.   I think there is some sort of law against that.   lol    At any rate, it is only mid-June and already the stores have their summer things on clearance and I definately can&#39;t pass up a clearance rack.  <br /><br />Make today special and share a smile.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-16 13:59:32',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(294065,5024,1,18,290771,'2008-06-16 15:09:30',NULL,'','Good Morning everybody...<br /><br />Hi Joey...remember when you said it was a start of a new week...?  well I couldn&#39;t sleep last night so I was in my library, the central air unit is on that side of the house and around midnight I heard this noise, a bang,  that I thought was a stick falling on the screen on the top of the blades that go round and round...has happened before...no bid deal...or maybe the dogs wrestling and bumping into the unit.<br /><br />Well anyway after awhile I I started to get hot and I went to adjust the temp. and the air wouldn&#39;t come on.

Gloomy looking day today - thunderstorms are forecast.  I just called and cancelled my appt. at the Cadillac dealer tomorrow - After conferring with hubby and son, it appears that I didn&#39;t have the air conditioner button pushed in and that is why it was blowing warm air.  I am claiming it as a sr. moment.  Kind of a quiet day yesterday for Father&#39;s Day and my birthday - our older son has been sick for the past 4 days and Sat. night, he was not able to sleep as he could not swallow and his throat was so swollen.  He ended up going to an Urgent Care Center yesterday and we met him there.  Turned out that he had an abcess in his throat that needed to be opened and drained.  We sat over there 2 hours waiting with him.  My younger son is the manager of the sales dept. of a corporation and he got a call yesterday morning from the son of his best employee - she had been killed Saturday night in a car accident.  He was bummed about that and had a lot on his mind, such as taking care of packing up her cubicle and desk and how he should let his other employees know.  He decided to go in early this morning and meet with HR and see what the prodical was in these matters.  He just turned 26 and has never had to deal with anything like this before.  Needless to say, neither was in much of a mood for celebration, so we had a quiet dinner at Joe&#39;s Crab Shack and then I spent 2 1/2 hrs. in my swing on the deck, reading a good book.  They use MSN Messenger at his work, and as he is one of my IM contacts, I can tell when he is online.  He just signed in a few minutes ago, and I sent him a message that I knew it would be a difficult day for him and that I loved him and was praying for him, and he just replied with &quot;thanks&quot; so I am sure he is in the midst of dealing with the situation, as he is normally pretty chatty.

I am sure TJ will like not having to go to the dr. for that long also.  I just got back from the dr.  I had gained a little bit of weight and couldn&#39;t seem to lose it, so my dr. did some blood work a few weeks back, and everything came back fine, so he sent me to a specialist as it was really bothering me.  The new dr. said he felt that I had my metabolism all whacked up because I only eat once a day.  I normally get up around 10:30 and as I am not a breakfast eater, I don&#39;t even think about eating until 2 - 3:00 in the afternoon.  By then, it is only a few hours until Greg gets home and wants dinner, so I just wait.  Anyway, he had me start eating 6 times a day - just small meals or snacks.  He said it would keep my body in fat burning mode.  Today was my 2 week check-up from that first visit, and I was pleasantly surprised - I was down 12.8 lbs. in that time.  He had me get off the scale and get back on and then he said &quot;did you take your shoes off last time?&quot;  which I told him I did, as I always do.  He told me that he was amazed.  I go back in 2 weeks - he did warn me not to expect that again, and as we will be on vacation for 9 days, I doubt that I will see much of a drop at all - I am just going to concentrate on not gaining it back&#33;&#33;&#33;','Gregswife','Gregswife','2008-06-17 02:02:08',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(294205,4364,1,18,290771,'2008-06-17 03:02:50',NULL,'','<!--quoteo(post=294171:date=Jun 16 2008, 01&#58;08 PM:name=JoeyandDavid)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (JoeyandDavid &#064; Jun 16 2008, 01&#58;08 PM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=294171\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec-->this is some US open&#33;&#33; 90 holes...and still no winner..sudden death&#33;&#33;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br />Thanks for the update.

So sad.  Congratulations on the weight loss.  Marc and I were eating around 1200 calories for six-weeks, and sticking to it, and hardly lost much at all.  I think it was too low for us, maybe.  <br /><br />Rose...thanks for the well wishes...I know you will be sooo happy when the kitchen is done...I&#39;m sure it will be well worth all the work and mess.   When we finished our basement it took three months.  We had it made into a huge great room with a bar and a sunken acrylic spa (hot tub) and an extra bathroom and walk-in closet.  We had to knock out a wall to get the spa in, and also a player piano.  Marc designed the sunken spa and wench system himself, and the whole room, and then we had it professionally done.  It was the best thing we have ever done to the house.  We have used that room sooo much, and it&#39;s been so great for having friends and family over.  Lots of room for all.  We never regretted the mess we had for three months, or spending the money.<br /><br />Jen...Hope all goes well with Hugh&#39;s check-up.  That&#39;s so nice of you to look after your mom.  Sounds like you&#39;re good on the Vit. D unless you get very little sunshine.  I have been thinking of taking the garlic capsules, too...the odorless ones, also.

Getting ready to go away for the weekend to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.  I am definately ready to get away for some sunshine, quiteness and of course a little shopping.<br />Mandy&#39;s fiancee&#39;s grandfather is still not doing very well.  They told them on Sunday evening that there was nothing else they could do for him and that it was a matter of time.  But, today they did surgery to repair the broken sturnem and put a feeding tube in his stomach.  So, maybe this will be the turning point for him.<br />Kyle and Rachel made an offer on another house today.  They will know by tomorrow evening if they got this one.  We can only hope, I am so ready to have my house back.  I need to get started getting it ready for Mandy&#39;s graduation party next month and my sister and her crew will be here that week.<br /><br />MaryLou - Congrats on TJ&#39;s check up that is just great.<br /><br />Jackie - Glad you make it to CA ok.

Today &quot;baby&quot; brother Bill turns 55 - Happy Birthday Bill - time sure does fly.   I still remember the day Mom &amp; Dad brought him home - Nannie made me a blue &amp; white sun dress for the homecoming and I can still see that dress.  Isn&#39;t it funny the things you remember?  Finally going to get my hair cut this afternoon - trying a new Salon so am a bit nervous but it has reached that stage where I can&#39;t stand it one more day - you know what I&#39;m talking about ladies.  Just found out last night that Heather &amp; Cait will be coming up on Sunday and staying over til Monday so it is back to the grocery store today - I thought I was finished shopping for the weekend but now need to get some goodies for Heather and her diabetes.   This will be Cait&#39;s first long trip and I can&#39;t wait to see them.   Haven&#39;t seen them since the day we picked up her new car.   <br /><br />As far as TJ goes - that little guy can&#39;t catch a break.   The Dr. in Philly called last night and they still don&#39;t have a diagnosis from his blood work.    They are still leaning towards some type of clotting disorder but need to do more blood work starting in mid-July and doing blood work every week for a month.   (Hint:  buy stock in ToysRUs - this is getting expensive)  However it looks like they will not be able to do the surgery for the nose bleeds due to his inability to clot.    This is getting very scary.<br /><br />Joey - I hope you are doing better today and had a good &quot;me/us&quot; day yesterday.   We all need one of those once in  a while.    Remember, you have lots of friends here and we love you.   <br /><br />Karla - good luck to Kyle &amp; Rachel on the house bid.    Have a great weekend away.  I&#39;m sure you are getting anxious to see Mandy again.    Has she decided to take the job she was offered?<br /><br />Andrea - stay cool - at least now you have the AC back up and running even though it did cost more than you expected.   Fortunately the compressor wasn&#39;t damaged.   That went on Deb &amp; Mikes unit and they were talking REALLY big bucks to get it back up and running.  How&#39;s Dad today?<br /><br />Jenn - you have such a way with words - thanks for saying the things a lot of us wanted to say but just couldn&#39;t put into words.   Good luck with the new chair<br /><br />Rose - how is the project coming along?   Sounds like they are really wasting no time.<br /><br />Tonia - glad to see you posting a bit more.   I&#39;m sure you are so busy but we miss hearing from you.   Going to make a big batch of your yummy potato salad for this weekend.   That recipe is great and I make it all the time.   <br /><br />Sue - glad you had fun at your sisters house and out on the lake.<br /><br />Jackie - how are things in California?   I&#39;m sure you are swamped getting acclimated to your new responsibilities there - can&#39;t wait to hear from you.<br /><br />Cheryl - won&#39;t be long now.   Scotty must be so excited.    It will be a fun time for all of you.   Take lots and lots of pictures.   <br /><br />Ed - Herb Alpert - now that&#39;s a real trip down memory lane.   Have fun with those 33 1/3&#39;s.   They are real collectors items.   Our grandkids will never know what a record player looked like.  Glad you still have your reel to reel - ours gave out a couple of years ago and couldn&#39;t be fixed.<br /><br />Steve - enjoy your econ. stimulus check and spend it before they ask for it back.   lol.   Sorry traffic is adding so much stress to your work day.    <br /><br />deb - How exciting that they are making a movie in your hometown.   I remember when they were filming part of the Godfather on Staten Island.   Traffic was a nightmare and you couldn&#39;t get near the place.   They actually used my aunt&#39;s MIL house for the wedding scenes in that moving and they couldn&#39;t even be around during the filming.   <br /><br />Well, time to get moving and rework all my menus for the weekend since I now need to feed company for two extra days.   I hope I get the sheets in the wash from the first group before the second group arrives.   If now, the girls will just get put to work as soon as they arrive.   Will certainly have a full house from Friday through Monday but I love it.   <br /><br />Make today  special  - I&#39;ll be back later.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-18 13:53:33',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(294515,4865,1,18,290771,'2008-06-18 15:48:35',NULL,'','Good morning all on this hump day.  Today and tomorrow and we are out of here for 4 days.<br /><br />MaryLou - Mandy had decided to take the job because it gets her foot in the door for other positions (such as marketing or HR), but than Sunday evening she was kind of not sure.  She did say that the gal that came out to the job fairs that really liked her is going on maturnity leave in 3 months and they talked about training her for that job.  This would be great if the gal did not come back she would possiblely be able to stay in that position.  I am sure in the end she will take the offer it is just the fact that they will have move to Indy and I am not sure that she is ready for that.  Along with the fact that she was thinking she would have a couple of weeks off after 9/14 to get things finialized for the wedding in October.
