Good Wee Hours of the Morning, Buds!  The Filly is strolling in the garden & has opened the gate.  So Y'all come on in!  First of all I want thank all of the Catholic Rosebuddies for sending up prayers to St. Anthony on my behalf!  DH found my bracelet in the strangest place this morning!  It was in the plastic bags (Walmart bags that I line trash cans with)  I thought that I had lost it in Big Lott's.  I did not rumage through those bags!  I think that St. Anthony found it & put it in those bags!  I am so happy that I have it back because it was Mama's!  Thank you sovery much!  I am a believer in St. Anthony now!!!  HOOS:  I am so sorry to learn of your nice's passing.  Please keep us posted on the autopsy results.  PUFF:  Happy Belated Birthday!!!  I hope that you had a great day!  C&BW:  Sounds like you had fun this weekend.  That was really nice of your friends to offer to drive Steve to the airport!  LYNN:  Thinking of you on Mother's Day...  PAT:  Nice pics of Tiff & her BF!  Thanks for sharing!  ROMA:  What did you get for Mother's Day?  Did you get taken out to lunch after church?  LAURA:  How are you feeling?  Are you over the bug yet?  TANGO:  I heard that there was some rough weather in NC.  Did y'all get any of it?  MARYANN:  I hope that you like your new job.  Did you ever get any info on the "Mystery Shopper" thing?  JANE:  Maybe Spring will finally arrive for y'all up there & the hummers will be back.  I still have not seen one, but I think that maybe he's coming when I'm not looking because the food is going down in the feeder.  Waving madly to all of the Buds!  I hope that everyone has a blessed day in the Lord!  Later, Gators!  ~Jeanne the Insomniac Filly   

Good morning all. Happy belated Mother's Day. I hope all had a wonderful day.

Well, here's my weekend in a nutshell. Friday I was totally useless!!! Go figure LOL. I slept until 5pm, was up until 7 then slept until 0830 Sat morning!!! Uff da. Taffy and I took a load of stuff to the new house then spent the day cleaning. At 3:30pm we back, I cleaned church then went to DB's for the party. I enjoyed myself but was I tired!!! I left about 10pm and crashed about 10:30pm. I got up yesterday morning around 0700 with a big day planned and out of the blue I got the suprise of the year - NSDD called around 0730 from where she had babysat and asked if I wanted to go for breakfast - her treat!!!!!!! I showered, went picked her up and we had brunch at a nice diner. I was shocked. Then I took her home, went home myself to do a bit of laundry and fell asleep for a couple hours. Uff da. I decided that it was pointless to fight it so Taffy and I spent a very lazy day watching 7th Heaven DVD's.  Yup, felt guilty only for about 5 seconds and then thought "I deserve it".

The house is coming. I've decided I'm being way too picky and need to get moving. I can do a lot of it after I get my things moved in. Then Taffy and I will be here and it'll be easier. Once that's done, I can clear out the other house.

Well, it's order night so better get crackin. Have a great day everyone!!!!

Good Morning!

       I am sitting here enjoying my first cup of coffee...Yummo....anyone else need some???

Im, your day sounded perfect...so glad your DD took you out to Brunch that was very sweet!!! The house will come along....you really needed to rest and have a day to yourself!!

Jeanne, I am so happy you found your bracelet....St. Anthony always comes through!!!!!

I am off to work, then going to try and make a pedicure appt. for this afternoon...then off to a membership meeting tonight...the theme is "Wine & Food Pairing"

I hope everyone enjoyed their Mothers Day....I really did absolutely nothing!!!!

Tango I was so excited about your tip, I called one of my sisters, she of course knew about it, so I called Mom, she had NO idea, and was thrilled to hear about it!!!  Thanks again!

I better hop on the Elliptical and get my day started........

 Good Morning Ladies - THe sun is shinning!  O, Happy Day!  But, rain in the forcast for the next 2 days. . . Will we ever get more then 1 nice day at a time?

Had a nice dinner with the kids last night - They bestowed me with gifts besides - - a couple of the koozies they got to give out at the wedding - a picture frame, and then they told me I could chose one of the engagement pictures to put in it, a sign to add to my wine decore, that said, "I cook with wine, sometimes I even put it in the food" and the large Willow ANgle of Mother and Son.. GF said he picked that out by himself.

I'm running out of time - gotta run for now. 

Good morning.

I am glad everyone had a great Mother's Day. Lyle was going to take me out to dinner but I didn't want to go so he made hamburger sandwiches. Boy did he do good. Other than that I did nothing. My two kids called and later two cousins called me. Was nice talking to all of them.

Today is baseball for Hayley so will go and watch her play.

Off for coffee.

Good Morning!

Our power went out for an hour in the middle of the night! The Carbon Monoxide detector started beeping, I guess cuz it lost power ~ I took the battery so it would stop the beepoing.. Slept in an extra hour this morning..

Looks like a beautiful day today :) I will be at the animal shelter all afternoon...  Off to start my day...

Hi Rosies!

Cloudy and overcast here.  I think I've got a Mother's Day hangover.  Not that I drank anything!  But I woke up this morning with my head, stomach, and back hurting.  Just now took some Advil and will go lay down.  I called in sick to work.  Thought maybe I'd do a half-day but just don't feel up to it.  

The kids got me a very nice picture collage.  A picture of DH and I at our wedding, one each of all the boys and DIL, one of my MIL holding the baby, and one of my family taken when I was a little girl.  A absolute perfect gift!  DH took it to work today to show it off. 

Hugs to all.  Have a great Monday!~~~Laura 

Happy belated Mother's Day!  I hope everyone had a wonderful day yesterday.  I fell asleep by the pool and got my first every true sunburn.  Ouch!  I am RED!!!!!!  When I got dressed for my last 1st Communion of the year last night I had a white blouse with sheer sleeves.  Becca said it looked like I was wearing a pink shirt because of the burn!

Laura - It sounds like you had a wonderful 1st Mother's Day as a grandma!

Dori - Sean is going to UNT to study hospitality management.  He is very excited. 

Off to get the kiddos.  Later!

Hi again. 

Boy I've been on my feet all day.  Running with laundry, putting stuff away, going through mail and papers, and phone calls!

Dianae - I knew he was going to study hospitality management but didn't know where.  UNT = Univ. North Texas?  Hope that is close enough that he can come home sometimes.  Texas is a very BIG state! 

Dinner is in the oven.  It's been cold and windy most of the day.  Weather man said we may have some beach errosion along the coast with this wind and rain.  I don't think we got as much rain as predicted. 

Have a great evening.

Dori

Dori -   I feel very fortunant - UNT is only 40 minutes from home. :)

Hi ladies,

      Dori, glad to hear you had a fun and safe trip!!  Congratulations on your DD getting her Masters....how wonderful!!

Dianae, that sun was burning yesterday....my face is bright red from falling asleep in the lounger.

I am off to a meeting in an hour...so probably won't be back tonight!

Dori, good to hear your trip was fun and productive :) Too bad we weren't still in Vegas, we could have finally met ~~~ A Big Congrats to your DD!!

Dianae, Oouch!! Are you breathing a sigh of relief yet now that the 1st Communion class of 2008 is over??? At least I think that was it, right? Hope work slows a bit for you...

Laura, those are the best kind of gifts :)

Off to the couch to relax in front of the tv for a bit ~

Tomorrow at 9 am, I start taking care of the amputee.  It is a lady.  I am giving up that other job with the man.  Too few hours and it was a nightmare.  Also, I will be helping at the bookstore when she calls me.  The job with the lady is 5 hours a day and is $9 an hour.  There is a light at the end of the tunnel for awhile.  I love to read so will enjoy helping with that. 

Hope everyone had a great day.  Hugs to all.  I am going to take a short nap and then do some work on the computer.
