Thinking Out Loud.....

Oh, and Rain.....the Costco thing...........true......when my SIL goes with my daughter its a $350.00 bill, when she goes its $250.00...............this guy buys every gimmick and gadget they have that is new..........

But then why would that shock me considering they are buying a Bulldog........asked my daughter.......Nik, what do they cost................she said $3,500 to $4,000.........I almost fell off the chair..........

Their dog died a year ago.....she has allergies, and can't get another till they get her allergies under control............just found out about her problem.........her numbers have to go from a 5 to a 2 before she can be cleared for a dog............I think she is crazy........love dogs, but not a $4,000 dog........

wow...this thread is getting just like it used to be...GREAT

I read all the posts and cannot remember anything but LOL from all of you

Big hugg to all of you

Wonder who changed her name from GrannyDukes to Firecracker........lol

not sure the one I know is also the oldest, prettiest, and a member of the Mile High Club, and has a Pilot on hold....................LMAO

Capital K, no red solo cup...I only associate purple with you!  well, maybe some red lipstick...
Diane, curious to know if you did make it to the car and if you went to Costco.  My DH never buys anything for himself; but send him to a grocery store and he brings home a coconut that needs to be drilled and sledge-hammered.   I hope you are feeling better.  Numbness is scary, but you are probably OK. 
Sheila, you made me LOL.  Did your DD arrive?  Or is that next week? 
Speaking of next week, how are Seattle-ites celebrating the Super Bowl?  (possibly snow bowl)
The town must be going crazy...and now that the Mariners have NYY's best (Cano) there's even more to celebrate. 
My favorite football day was last Sunday - double-header with the four best teams.  But it is fun to have a home team playing in the bowl.  No closable roof in NJ. 

Ducky, bull dogs are a lot of work and don't live that long.  Tell DD bad investment!  Get a pound puppy.

I made it to the car, the tingling went away once I got out of bed.  The knee and inside foot are still hurting but I can get around without making it much worse.  We decided to skip Costco and go to see Wolf of Wall Street - about an hour too long.  I was clear on the amount of debauchery after a half hour, it wasn't necessary to show that much IMHO.  So, it was ok.  The world of investing is even more scary than it was before I saw the movie.

The Super Bowl is a very big deal for Seattle, it's every where - Casey went on the ferris wheel tonight and the pictures she sent show a city that seems to be entirely lit in blue and green.  We have several options for watching and I think Casey is going to have her friends here and we are going to a good friends house in our old neighborhood. I actually don't wish I could go to the game - we have almost always watched with these friends - I cook everything, they provide comfy couches, big tv and all the cleaning.

As for Cano, the most important thing that has to happen with the Mariners is new leadership.  Doesn't matter what player they have until they clean up the front office.

I purchased my previous dog from an auction that I chaired-he stayed with us for the three weeks prior to the auction and there was no way my kids were going to be ok with handing him over.  His name was OPI which stood for Over Priced Item - 1800 for a golden!  Ridiculous. So 4000 seems much worse to me   Plus she's allergic - my favorite dog is my DS's Labradoodle named Barley.  No allergies, no shedding, just the right size, sweet and smarter than any dog I've had.

Just had a moment that i think you can appreciate - DH is still sick and asked that I make him a soup.  Sure, so off to the grocery store  I am not averse to a few shortcuts, so I decided to buy a couple of cooked chicken breasts.  I went to the deli counter and with several people around, I said "could I please have your two biggest breasts?".  Poor kid tried really hard not to laugh...

Diane...lol

this reminded me something similar....years back we had a Karl Ehmer German store right in the corner

everything was freshly cut and the meat was ground in front of your eyes so one day I went in to buy fresh brains and

I said Excuse me do you have any brains today?   We were both hysterical  

all those? Were supposed to be periods

Damn this ipad

Watching the grammy's and realize just how much "music" is not music anymore...do I sound like my parents?

I watched the Grammys....very disappointing

I liked some of the performances but overall 3 hours and 45 minutes was too long

Just saying

And i can't stand TS she looks like a spoiled child but i loved the song and the piano

Diane....I hope you are little better today

(((TOL)))

Blondie....how are you doing Dolly.............I'm good.......got out today for the first time by myself.......Saturday went to dinner with my son, DIL, and the kids......my DIL, got out of the car, walked to my door, got the trash bag out of my hand which I was going to put in the can, did it for me, and took me by the arm and walked me to the car.........coming home, my son turned the car around so I was on the right side near my drive, and again DIL walked me by the arm, down the drive to the door, and waited while I took my boots off, and was safely in my slippers in the house............how lucky am I.....

went out today by myself for the first time to Shoprite in the Drexeline Shopping Center (just around the corner), and was almost "giddy" with excitement.........LMAO..........it felt good to get out...........ran the car for 1/2 hour with the heater and defroster on to clean the snow........God knows what that cost considering I get 9 MPG...........lol.......think I cared.......especially after my gas and electric bill was $328.00 this month.

How was everyone else's heat and electric...........

hugs Blondie.......stay warm, its coming back tomorrow..........

I started going to Fresh Grocer after I moved from Springfield to Drexel Hill.........the only thing I hate.......their friggin parking lot, and all the assholes who have  no idea how to drive in it......that is horrible.

Really was happy to see it become a Shoprite.....their prices are very good, and so are their specials....don't forget your coupons if you have their ad.....some good ones this week, chips, ice cream, and a couple other things......

There take out food is fantastic too, especially their soups.....chinese food, and today they had Shepherds pie in the take-out......how about their Meal Deals...........great too......I sound like I own the place.......just like it that much........lol

It is getting cold out there a little at a time, and the wind is brutal........dress warm....don't let the sun fool you.....hugs sweetie.

Hmmmmmm no one to take your son so you don't have to go out..........the wind is awful so make sure you dress warm.....if I lived closer I would do a lot of your running for you.......just take it easy........
