[Genna14]

haha if crushyness was the word... lol

nothing i would never admit online for everyone to see haha :)
Haha don't be shy now!

[NurseBettyLu]

No afternoon storm today, but bad weather should be returning just in time for the 4th. Maybe that will keep the trailer park people from coming out in the yard and shooting off their guns in the air. Doubt it.

[pamcharlie]

I am resting up major today since one of my little darlings came to preschoolers church yesterday and i have picked the bug up and tomorrow is work and small group day and i am just resting and doing what i need to get the bug out of my system , pray for me please

Hahahaha its one of those things huh?

When I was in high school, my BFF's mom and my mom had an "arranged marriage" for the two of us. I'm like...."we don't like each other that way!"

It got to be pretty annoying. Especially when some church friends saw us holding hands at the Acquire the Fire convention. We were praying people!

[jesus loves me]

Just stopping by to say 'hey and how y'all today?'

[pamcharlie]

Hahahaha its one of those things huh?

I can relate to that since at church i was sitting at church with a guy that i am friends with and some people thought that we were going out together and got the wrong idea and some people kept questioning him about me and he kept questioning me about our friendship it really drove me nuts since some people don't realize that there is a thing called being just friends and i am still waiting for my future hubbie .

I have a friend who's a girl and everyone seems to think there's something going on there. It's like, uuuummmm...no. Ok, I admit I don't help the situation when I call her on all my breaks and talk to her for like ever, and the fact that I have a picture of her on my phone as my wallpaper probably don't help matters either. And I'm sure the fact that we flirt shamelessly *although playfully because well I'm like that with EVERYONE not just guys or not just girls*....

Ok well I see why people would wonder about us! LOL!

I've had plenty guy friends say "I love you" to me. And Joshy just threw himself on me yesterday. Ok yeah, he was leaving to go overseas, so I'm sure he just wanted a nice big hug. But why don't people mind their own dang business?

Lol it goes by SO fast, you'll blink and then you'll be 24 like me! Try not to rush through it all! When they say those are the golden years, its SO true.

[NurseBettyLu]

High school was pure agony for me. I like being 50.

[Genna14]

Lol well, you're the exception.

[NurseBettyLu]

You're not 50 yet. Just wait till you start gettin' them thar senior discounts.

[pamcharlie]

You're not 50 yet. Just wait till you start gettin' them thar senior discounts.

Hi all , I am back , pamcharlie had small group on thursday night and at my group we have this really obese cat and he is so huge that we need him to stop getting snacks from the neighbours

[Genna14]

I wont be 50 for 26 years. And I'm pretty glad.

[pamcharlie]

I am only 37 soon to be 38 and i have 20 years before i turn 50 , hopefully jesus comes back before i turn 50 .

[jesus loves me]

i have only 2 years for that magic number but i hope jesus comes back by my 50th.

[Genna14]

I feel so young.

[jesus loves me]

lol! I feel so, uh 'mature'!!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Yup, mature.

[Genna14]

Yeah that's the word.

[pamcharlie]

I am just a young 30 something , however next year my grandmother turns 100 next year so we just youngesters compared to her.

[Jason]

I am just a young 30 something , however next year my grandmother turns 100 next year so we just youngesters compared to her.

You're an old thirtysomething, Pam.

[pamcharlie]

You're an old thirtysomething, Pam.

NO I am not i am young !!!!!!!!!

[Jason]

NO I am not i am young !!!!!!!!!

Nuh uh. I'm 38. I can say that.

[pamcharlie]

I am just a young 30 something

[pamcharlie]

Any ideas for a new zealander who is keeping toasty since it is so chilly down here i am wondering if anyone has ideas for keeping warm . i am snuggling with a hotwater bottle and charlie and a couple of blankets while watching tv and wearing layer upon layer and exercising to get the blood pumping i am need more ideas .

[Genna14]

Heck if I know. The coldest temp I ever saw was 19 F.

[NurseBettyLu]

Hot and humid here -- I'm about to sweat to death. Pam, you could visit me and sit around in your shorts and gripe about the mosquitoes. Basil and Charlie could come play with KittyBoy, except he's feeling a mite territorial today. Had to put him out for not playing nice with his sister.

[jesus loves me]

I think we should visit pam instead so we can cool off.

[Jason]

I am just a young 30 something

You were 3 years ago, but now you're old.

[NurseBettyLu]

We'll box up some of our hot so she can warm up a little. I seriously doubt we want to be all THAT cold! KittyBoy brought me a live lizzard today! Just one of those little green things. I managed to catch it andput it back out, which was no mean feat. My back hurts. Stuff like this always happens when your back hurts.

[Genna14]

Dude I so didn't know Caledonia was Scotland..That is so cool! Plus its one of my favorite Celtic songs...Omg I so want to go to Scotland.

[NurseBettyLu]

Come on down Friday, the Blue Angels are doing a show in Pensacola. I may live in rubeville, but cool stuff is close enough to drive to.

[jesus loves me]

Come on down Friday, the Blue Angels are doing a show in Pensacola. I may live in rubeville, but cool stuff is close enough to drive to. they are cool. i'll be down.

[NurseBettyLu]

We'll pick up lottery tickets while we're there. Florida is going to get Powerball, I hear. Not sure when. Can't wait -- monster jackpots.

[jesus loves me]

We'll pick up lottery tickets while we're there. Florida is going to get Powerball, I hear. Not sure when. Can't wait -- monster jackpots. if i win i can get a mac book and internet service! i can get cable! i can get a.c.! i'll even split the dough with ya!

[NurseBettyLu]

Cool! If I win I'm moving the heck out of hurricane alley. I'm getting way too old to spend every June-November with a target on my rear end.

[Jason]

Cool! If I win I'm moving the heck out of hurricane alley. I'm getting way too old to spend every June-November with a target on my rear end.

And what else are you doing if you win?

[jesus loves me]

Y'all are welcome up here. i'd love some southern company. i've been watching 'bertha's' track.

[NurseBettyLu]

You're on the list! A nice new place to live, all the tropical shirts you want, and a brand new coffeemaker. (Intended for Jason. I am not consistant in my use of the quote button)

[Jason]

OMG I LOVE THE BLUE ANGELS!!!!! They're my second fave airplane, right next to A-10's. I wish I could see them again! Maybe they'll be at the airshow next year..but again, I may be in the UK.

[NurseBettyLu]

Y'all are welcome up here. i'd love some southern company. i've been watching 'bertha's' track.

Bertha shouldn't affect us. Most of the computer models have it turning north and tracking off into open water, posing a threat to nothing but shiping lanes. Of course you never know with hurricanes.

[Jason]

You can all move to Arizona with Genna and me. No hurricanes, tornadoes, or earthquakes. Just flash floods and the occasional dust storm.

[Genna14]

And the coolest lightning storms EVER.

He's right, I call it the safest place in the world to live.

[Jason]

And the coolest lightning storms EVER.

He's right, I call it the safest place in the world to live.

And gorgeous sunsets!

[NurseBettyLu]

Sounds good! Be watching for me! Srsly I didn't think I'd make it through Katrina. That's the last hurricane I try to sit out.

[Jason]

Cool. Plus Genesis and I live here. Oh and Alice Cooper.

[pamcharlie]

Cool. Plus Genesis and I live here. Oh and Alice Cooper.

Since it is so chilly here at the moment in new zealand i would love to go to arizona in the northern summer to escape the cold new zealand winter . tonight here in hamilton new zealand it is going to be -2 chilly

[pamcharlie]

Charlie would love the heat he loves summer and so do i , it was really crunchy underfoot this morning and basil was out playing and he came in very quickly and i am sure that kittyboy and charlie and basil would become great friends , charlie's favourite thing to do in summer is to find a tree and sit in the sunshine and get some sun .

[Jason]

Since it is so chilly here at the moment in new zealand i would love to go to arizona in the northern summer to escape the cold new zealand winter . tonight here in hamilton new zealand it is going to be -2 chilly

28 F is indeed cold. Right now at 10:12 pm it's 95 F (35 C).

[pamcharlie]

28 F is indeed cold. Right now at 10:12 pm it's 95 F (35 C).

Please send some arizona heat down here to new zealand , oh lovely sunset at the moment there is a lovely rose colour , we are going to have a frost tonight .

[NurseBettyLu]

A temperature exchange program is what we need.

[The Unknown Gomer]

Cool. Plus Genesis and I live here. Oh and Alice Cooper.

Mr. Cooper makes a GREAT burger! :D

Well, At least his restaurant in Cleveland does. :cool: Yum.

Kind of nervewracking to be glared at all through dinner by the poster of Ted Nugent that was hanging on the wall behind my right shoulder though. :eek:

[Genna14]

And gorgeous sunsets!

And the Grand Canyon!


Sounds good! Be watching for me! Srsly I didn't think I'd make it through Katrina. That's the last hurricane I try to sit out.

Sure, come on down!!

[pamcharlie]

My sister and her husband have visited the grand canyon and other american places and is it true that you need to book a year in advance for the donkey trek down into the canyon . has anyone been brave enough to go on to the look platform over the cliff edge of the canyon ?

[ZippyApplePants]

You can all move to Arizona with Genna and me. No hurricanes, tornadoes, or earthquakes. Just flash floods and the occasional dust storm.

We don't have those here either. We also don't have flash floods or dust storms.

And the coolest lightning storms EVER.

He's right, I call it the safest place in the world to live.

CO lightning storms are cool too, as long as you're inside and the electricity stays on.

And gorgeous sunsets!

Hey, we have those too! So I'll just stay up here and leave room in Arizona for other people. :D

[Jason]

You have something called blizzards.

[Genna14]

There's really no "platform" you just kind of have a fence. Unless this is something I haven't seen, which I probably haven't. I've only been three times and the last time was 8 years ago, so I vaguely remember it. I didn't ever take a donkey down there, we were pressed for time the first couple of times I went, and the third time, my grandmother was there.

We did, however, when I was 11, take the train from Williams. It was rather boring, and I think I slept most of the way up. Then again, I was 11 and had the attention span of a squirrel.

Though I admit, I love Colorado, I'm certain I wouldn't want the fear of avalanches and blizzards.

My first time really experiencing Colorado, outside of a 45 minute layover in the Denver airport, we hit the worst blizzard of the decade. Yeah...

[Jason]

You didn't hear about the huge clear platform they built that extends over the canyon?

[rossid]

Well it was loud today when I screamed after nearly spilling my Starbucks decaf on my laptop. :eek:

[Genna14]

You didn't hear about the huge clear platform they built that extends over the canyon?

I heard they were gunna build one.


Well it was loud today when I screamed after nearly spilling my Starbucks decaf on my laptop. :eek:

LOL! Oh no not the COFFEE!

[rossid]

ROTFL!!! We are more concerned about the coffee than the computer. :D

[Genna14]

The computer is replaceable. But a good cup of coffee...

[NurseBettyLu]

Yes, the death of a good cup of coffee is always a tragedy.

[sandie]

It can only be remedied by the pouring of another one.

[NurseBettyLu]

But you never really forget the one that got away. Oh, yeah, and now your hard drive will be up all night.

[jesus loves me]

Nobody here tonight?

[pamcharlie]

Here I am , just saying hey there since i have to cook dinner tonight and go to home group , will be here tomorrow my fellow gomers

[Genna14]

Nobody here tonight?

[jesus loves me]

I'm here! Hey Pam, I'm watching Ghost Hunters International, they're at Larnach Castle in New Zealand. sounds good - wish i could see it.

[Genna14]

No cable/satellite? Sucks for you. I love this show!

[jesus loves me]

No cable/satellite? Sucks for you. I love this show! nope, no nothing. no real internet service(mobile web)and someone bought me a digital converter box and because of where i live here i've now lost 2 network stations, 4 local and what i still get disappears sometimes for over an hour. fun.

[Genna14]

That stinks

[jesus loves me]

That stinks i am in total agreement with this statement!!!

[Jason]

I heard they were gunna build one.




It's been up for several months. And don't dis the Grand Canyon Railroad. My stepdad works for it.

[NurseBettyLu]

The airshow was extremely noisy. Ears still ringing.

[Genna14]

I'm not dissing anything J, I just thought it was incredibly boring.

[jesus loves me]

The airshow was extremely noisy. Ears still ringing. earplugs! ever see the thunderbirds? that is the ultimate in air show noise - love it.

[Genna14]

Nah the Blue Angels are louder. Actually, C 130's are, but anyway...

The Thunderbirds are cool, but I like the Blue Angels better.

[NurseBettyLu]

Off to Lulu's. Quieter day today.

[Jason]

I'm not dissing anything J, I just thought it was incredibly boring.

That's dissing. :P

[NurseBettyLu]

That's dissing. :P

Quit sticking your tongue out at people. That's rude.:P :P :P

[pamcharlie]

[pamcharlie]

I know it can be tasteless and crude sometimes, anyway i about to have dinner and i have been out all day today , but i will be here tomorrow .

[rossid]

TOP3D2. Where are you? We are the only ones here and you've NEVER posted. Show yourself! :P

[rossid]

Okay now I'm the only member on the board!!! :eek:

[pamcharlie]

How is everyone today, i had a great night sleep last night unlike the night before when i was rudely awoken by a really noisy group of people outside early sunday morning

[NurseBettyLu]

Airshow got rained out yesterday. Good thing I went to the dress rehearsal Friday. Movies in the Sand also rained out, but got a good meal at Lulu's. Huge boomy storm. Four people got struck by lightening on the beach waiting for the airshow. All are okay, I hear.

[jesus loves me]

Movies in the sand sounds like our movies in the park. lots of people went to it.

[NurseBettyLu]

Only drawback is that you're at the mercy of the weather. And the weather was truly horrible last night.

[jesus loves me]

In severe do they have a place to take shelter at all?

[NurseBettyLu]

Yeah, inside the restaurant itself. So even if the beach activities get stormed out, you can still eat then go find something else to do.

[Genna14]

Hospital coffee is disgusting. I've had a crash course in this today. I'm still somewhat stunned at the entire situation.

[NurseBettyLu]

Hospital coffee is disgusting. I've had a crash course in this today. I'm still somewhat stunned at the entire situation.

Try bumming some of the stuff they make at the nurses station. That's usually not too bad. Whatever you do, stay away from that stuff that comes from the cafeteria. I'm not sure what they make it with, but I'm fairly sure it's not coffee.

[pamcharlie]

Hospital coffee is disgusting. I've had a crash course in this today. I'm still somewhat stunned at the entire situation.

Hospital food is super disgusting too, especially the sandwhiches , very bland and tasteless

[NurseBettyLu]

Case in point: hospital jello. Watch the stuff. It doesn't return to a liquid at room temperature. Scary stuff.

[pamcharlie]

It tastes like burnt cowboy coffee. But, I didn't really taste a whole hell of a lot ya know. I've eaten about 10 bites of food all day.


Hospital food is super disgusting too, especially the sandwhiches , very bland and tasteless

We had lunch in the cafeteria yesterday, it wasn't so bad. But then, neither was the situation at that time.

[pamcharlie]

I will here tomorrow off to the cinema with a great friend who is heading stateside on sunday my time

I will here tomorrow off to the cinema with a great friend who is heading stateside on sunday my time

Cebrina, where are you? :D

[pamcharlie]

Pamcharlie is back how is everyone here ?

[Jason]

Pamcharlie is back how is everyone here ?

I'm good. I just started a new web site ... a blog called Forward Habit:
http://www.forwardhabit.com

Be sure to visit and comment on my first article - Laugh Yourself to Good Health.

[pamcharlie]

Jason i will read that tomorrow new zealand time .

[NurseBettyLu]

Mm, coffee. PNB straight out of the jar. Life good.

[Genna14]

I'm sitting here watching Boy Meets World about to fall asleep. I'm exhausted.

[NurseBettyLu]

So go to bed, silly. I'm about to go to w**k myself. I don't want to go to w**k. Big suprise there.

[Genna14]

I'm not exhausted like sleepy, just emotionally and mentally drained. I'm going with my mom to my Nana's tomorrow. She's freaked about going in there alone. She says "her whole life was in that house and now that she's gone, all the life is gone out of it".

Its hard because it wasn't just her life, I spent all but two Christmases there. I lived the first few tender years of my life in that house, and some after that when we moved back while I was in high school, and for a bit it was just me and her there. Christmas will never be the same for me. I'll never dance the cumbias with her again, I'll never tease her about her accent again, we'll never spend a special quiet New Year's Eve together again.

[pamcharlie]

Where is everyone ? It is nearly 10am here in new zealand and i am here on my own

[ZippyApplePants]

Where is everyone ? It is nearly 10am here in new zealand and i am here on my own

[ZippyApplePants]

Awwww, sorry to hear that Genna. :(

[Genna14]

Having to say goodbye to my grandma and my 15 year old dog within a week of each other is the hardest thing to do.

[ZippyApplePants]

:( I'm praying for you.

[Genna14]

Thank you. So how is everyone else? More like where are they.

[NurseBettyLu]

I is here but you is not. Just cleaned out the fridge. Ew.

[pamcharlie]

It is very windy here today , storms coming

[Genna14]

Hi there Genna, So sorry to hear about your grandma and your dog, take care i am praying for you too. I am fine it is really cloudy here today and i am staying in today .
Thanks. Its been draining.

[pamcharlie]

Thanks. Its been draining.

Thanks Genna, remember to take care of yourself , during this time go for a walk or spend some time with Jesus and listen to some music or go to a movie or spend time with friends .

[Genna14]

I have no friends. I have been going to work out, I feel a little better, but I'm so tired.

[pamcharlie]

Working out is great to get rid of stress, jason wrote a really great blog about the health benefits of laughter he has placed the link to the blog in the name game in the amusement park . it is great .

[jesus loves me]

Been waaay too quiet here lately

[NurseBettyLu]

Yup, waaaaaaay too quiet. Like waiting for the other shoe to drop.

[Genna14]

You know I worked out for nearly two hours yesterday, then I went out to dinner and had a yummy salad and I didn't even tough the dessert buffet. I'm feeling pretty good about myself right now!

[jesus loves me]

I always considered the dessert bar the 'main event'!

[Jason]

You know I worked out for nearly two hours yesterday, then I went out to dinner and had a yummy salad and I didn't even tough the dessert buffet. I'm feeling pretty good about myself right now!

If they served better salads here, I'd eat them for many meals.

[Genna14]

If they served better salads here, I'd eat them for many meals.
We went to Sweet Tomatoes. The best salad buffet I've ever been to!

[pamcharlie]

i am here after church my pastor spoke on hebrews totally great

[jesus loves me]

Looks like we're finding our way back here.

[Genna14]

*runs in and thumps on chest while making Tarzan noises*

[NurseBettyLu]

Not very quiet here. Very loud thunderstorm.

[Genna14]

I <3 thunderstorms. They make me :D

[jesus loves me]

High and dry here for now; just hot and humid. Must go I think I'm about to burn Pam's chocolate strusel and it costs too much to make to burn it. Bye!

[Genna14]

My stomach hurts too much to think about eating more food, although that struesel sounds good.

[jesus loves me]

I'll let you know when it's cool enough to cut into. I can tell you it SMELLED wonderful baking! Take care of your tummy. No fun when tummy hurts.

[NurseBettyLu]

It was actually cool enough to cook tonight, so I did a nice spaghetti ala puttenesca. Very spicy, I think you would like it.

[Genna14]

I think its because I didn't have my Grape Nuts this morning.

As Cory Matthews would say "there's no such thing as good news before I've had my Grape Nuts".

[jesus loves me]

It was actually cool enough to cook tonight, so I did a nice spaghetti ala puttenesca. Very spicy, I think you would like it. what is spaghetti ala puttenesca? I do indeed like spicy. I baked the chocolate strusel and I think her pan was just a little too big but it didn't even heat up the kitchen with central. I can't remember the last time I was able to make something that wasn't cold or nuked in my apt. Even if we have a cool day the apt just will not cool down.

[Genna14]

I like spicy. I like hot, actually. I guess it comes with being Mexican. I even have my own special bottle of Tabasco sauce because everyone else likes Lousiana sauce. Lol

[Jason]

I think I'm Mexican.

*shakes cayenne on veggies*

[3D NC fan]

We went to Sweet Tomatoes. The best salad buffet I've ever been to!

I loved Sweet Tomatoes when we lived in FL! We have SouperSalad here which has the same type of set up. They are running a special today only for $3.49!

[jesus loves me]

I think I'm Mexican.

*shakes cayenne on veggies* I bought a jar at the store thanks to your thing on spices. Even the Safeway brand is outrageous in price. I found I LOVE cayenne and it has made it's way into everything I've had here, including a frozen pizza that I bought. :D :D :D :D

[NurseBettyLu]

I srsly crave Tony Chachere's on everything. Just following Father Mike's one and only cooking tip: Put TC's on eveything. It works.

[pamcharlie]

I have to bake for my small group tomorrow since i have work on thursday and i am going to really be so creative in the kitchen , must watch gordon ramsey tonight . the chefs have to cater for a wedding oh dear weddings are great but the chefs have to cater oh dear , gordon is to go balistic .

[Genna14]

I'm not sure if its just here, but the Souper Salad we used to have sucked so bad. I never cared for their food.

[pamcharlie]

I am going to find some salad recipes for you all and i post them in the recipes section .

[NurseBettyLu]

Did a lovely five-ingredient crock pot chicken and dressing tonight. Assembled it this morning and supper cooked itself while I had a nice nap. No hot kitchen.

[Genna14]

Crock pots are a wonderful invention.

[NurseBettyLu]

Amen.

[pamcharlie]

Crock pots are just want we kiwis (new zealanders) need on these cold wet gross winter days a lovely stew or soup would be great tonight that storm is coming it is slow moving compared to the rip roaring moving one we had on saturday .

[NurseBettyLu]

Easy potato soup for cold nasty days: Fry out three or four slices of bacon in a nice big saucepan or dutch oven. Sautee a large chopped onion in the drippings. Add however many cut up potatoes -- depends on how much soup you want. Cover with water, salt & pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and then simmer till the potatoes fall apart. You won't believe how wonderful it makes the house smell.

[jesus loves me]

This looks so easy and I love bacon and not having milk in it. Do y'all realize how LONG it'll be before I can make that though?????

[pamcharlie]

Thanks nurse betty lu i will definately try that one . I am now relaxing after baking and i hope that my small group like my efforts since i am a God Pleaser not a people pleaser since at parachute when Joyce spoke about people pleasers God spoke to me in volumes about a lot of things that day .

[jesus loves me]

Very quiet here again. Are y'all listening to "Revelation" perhaps? I've come close to going deaf I do believe. :D :D :D :D

[Genna14]

I haven't got mine yet *cries*

[jesus loves me]

Don't cry, Genna. It HAS to be on it's way. Maybe it was delivered to the wrong address and is now making it's way speedily to you.:(

[Genna14]

*sniff* No. I get it tomorrow. I'm gunna wear my new Third Day shirt ALLL weekend.

[NurseBettyLu]

Great t-storm today. Got my cd! Grounds in my coffee. Evidently today is turning out to be a mixed bag.

[jesus loves me]

*sniff* No. I get it tomorrow. I'm gunna wear my new Third Day shirt ALLL weekend. Happy day tomorrow for you. Wear that shirt proudly!

[NurseBettyLu]

Wish I'd ordered a shirt.

[jesus loves me]

I have a red shirt and a marker.....

[pamcharlie]

I am here after baking and supermarket shopping on wednesday and work and shopping and small group yesterday (thursday) and guess what i got yesterday too, you are all probably listening to it too like am at the moment what a wonderful cd .

Drum roll please I GOT REVELATION YESTERDAY AND I LOVE IT

[Genna14]

Happy day tomorrow for you. Wear that shirt proudly!

DUH! Its my second Third Day shirt. I have the NY Graffiti one from the site that I got from the 2006 WYA tour.


Wish I'd ordered a shirt.

It came free with my cd from lifeway.com


I have a red shirt and a marker.....

LOL! It should be orange!!

[NurseBettyLu]

I recently bought a plain orange t-shirt and a big package of multicolored sharpies. Very loud original homemade Gomer shirt comin' up!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Dude, I should totally do that.

[Genna14]

Guess who's the world's happiest Gomer today!!!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Uh, let me think, whoever could it be???

[Genna14]

I got my package! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[NurseBettyLu]

She who sows in tears shall reap in joy. Yay for you.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

She who sows in tears shall reap in joy. Yay for you.
Maybe that's why I'm in such a good mood all the time. :P

[NurseBettyLu]

Joy good.

[Genna14]

Yay me! Although I'm probably one of the last Gomer's to have gotten it, I can't complain because it was a gift. How appropriate that it would come out the month of my birth. Even better is that Transformers came out ON my birthday last year. :D

[NurseBettyLu]

KittyBoy just had a fit of the rips. You really have to wonder what goes on in their little heads sometimes.

[jesus loves me]

In my experience with my favorite animals - INSANITY. They can often make NO sense whatsoever. They sure are entertaining though. Rachel the cat I just was taking care of likes to stick her head under the lampshade in their bedroom. She's apparantley a true party animal at her advanced age! :D :D :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Nothing is happening this morning. Nothing at all. My ceu class got cancelled. I'm soooo disappointed. :rolleyes:

[jesus loves me]

Have a nice cup of coffee, that may help you feel better. :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Mmm, thanks. Think I will. We have to by law take the legal/ethical class every licensure period. Must nurses would much rather have a root canal without anesthaesia.

[jesus loves me]

Did they reschedule?

[NurseBettyLu]

We can always hope, but I'm afraid they will.

[jesus loves me]

How often does this licensure period come up?

[Genna14]

Just got home from a day out and about. My sis and I went to the Ft. Lowell museum, then checked out a costume shop, then had lunch with the parents. I call this my mini hometown vacation.

[pamcharlie]

You all have given me an idea since i don't have a gomer tee yet so i am going to see if i can turn one of my white tees into a orange gomer tee with some dye from the supermarket . any suggestions please will be most welcomed .

[Genna14]

Why dont you just buy one of the ones I have made Pam.

http://www.cafepress.com/AZtoUK

[pamcharlie]

Yes I will do that Genna .

[NurseBettyLu]

How often does this licensure period come up?

Every two years. So we don't have to suffer too often. I usually wait till the last possible second, don't know what happened to me this time.

[jesus loves me]

Every two years. So we don't have to suffer too often. I usually wait till the last possible second, don't know what happened to me this time. i know you work with a little boy, but what is the type of nursing you do?

[NurseBettyLu]

I do home nursing for special needs /medically fragile children.

[jesus loves me]

I do home nursing for special needs /medically fragile children. that's very cool.

[NurseBettyLu]

A pretty even mix of joy, frustration and heartache.

[jesus loves me]

I can understand that but it's a fine thing you do as a profession. my niece died at 33 and she was an e.r. nurse. my sister said that had its up parts and down parts.

[NurseBettyLu]

I love my work. But I also want to snuff the Office People. Really, I work with morons.

[pamcharlie]

The office is such a busy place and as for the tv comdey the office the brit one is so funny

[NurseBettyLu]

My office is not funny at all. If you worked there you'd understand why I haven't set foot in the office since December.

[Genna14]

My ears itch. Stupid earrings.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Take them out.

[Genna14]

I had already done that when I posted that.

[jesus loves me]

Where you been hiding out, Genna? Haven't seen much of you lately.

[pamcharlie]

Hey there everyone did all know that there has been a new group of gorrillas found in the congo in the swamp area

[ZippyApplePants]

Hey there everyone did all know that there has been a new group of gorrillas found in the congo in the swamp area

Ah ha! So that's where all the old Loon Kings ended up!

[jesus loves me]

Hey there everyone did all know that there has been a new group of gorrillas found in the congo in the swamp area My sister told me over 8,000 of them. It still seems a might quiet here.

[NurseBettyLu]

Good. I was wondering what to do with them when HazMat wouldn't take 'em.

[Genna14]

Where you been hiding out, Genna? Haven't seen much of you lately.
The freaking phone lines were down. Yes, I have to use neolithic dial-up becuase my parents are too dang cheap to get broadband or wireless even though I have a wifi card. Anyways...

The phone lines were down for three days because of the extensive amount of rain we've had lately. We live in and old neighborhood. The lines just got fixed today and yesterday I was on free WiFi at school.

[jesus loves me]

Welcome back and may you receive better service!

[Genna14]

Yeah I'm pretty irritated that I missed the deadline to submit a picture for the contest all because the freaking buttheads wouldn't come down and fix it for three days.

[jesus loves me]

Why don't you share your photo with us anyhow? That had to be a major frustration though.

[Genna14]

*sighs* yeah I'm pretty pissed about that.

[Genna14]

Here's the photo if you're interested. Sorry if its really big.

http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z250/kkylieskreations/photographyI/reflectioninglass-1.jpg

[NurseBettyLu]

Very pretty!

[Genna14]

Thank you. And its completely undigitalized. All shadow vs. light effects were achieved in the dark room. Took me about 50 work prints and several hours to make my face show up the way I wanted it to.

[NurseBettyLu]

Film photography may end up being a lost art. Pity.

[jesus loves me]

Here's the photo if you're interested. Sorry if its really big. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z250/kkylieskreations/photographyI/reflectioninglass-1.jpg thanks, genna - wish you coulda submitted it.

[pamcharlie]

Cool pic Genna, you should of submitted it is a great photo . wasn't the opening ceremony of the olympics super long ?

[Genna14]

Cool pic Genna, you should of submitted it is a great photo . wasn't the opening ceremony of the olympics super long ?
The whole point of me posting it here Pam was because I couldn't submit it. I had no internet. Shouldn't I be up for an honorary vote since I wasn't able to submit it? :(

[jesus loves me]

Should be as far as I'm concerrned! Hopefully next time there's a contest you shall have internet service.

[Genna14]

Tony just popped up on Raceday. He needs some Just for Men and a shave.

[NurseBettyLu]

Gotta go to the office and put my paperwork for the week in the drop box. BRB.

[jesus loves me]

So, where are you? 3 hours later and you still aren't 'brb'.

[Genna14]

She spelled paper wrong.

Sorry, its a habit.

[NurseBettyLu]

Alright-already! Herte I am! Okay, it's an hour round trip to the office. Then I tried to get a burger at Hardee's. Computer down. Who ever knew you needed a computer to make a hamburger? Oh, well...gave up after a half an hour, told them thanks but no thanks, went home and nuked leftovers. Then fed the cats, then fielded a question from Peter's new night nurse -- How do I make the vent alarm go off? (She's supposed to be vent certified) then went out on the front porch to watch the action over at the trailer park next door (cops are back, happens about once a week. Good entertainment, don't have cable, you know), took a call from the office -- did you work Thursday night? YES!! I work every stinkin thursday night. Am I working tonight? YES!! I work every stinkin Sunday night. Okeydoke, thanks Miss Beth. It's just not on the computer. I work with uber-idiots. Do guided imagery to bring down heart rate from the combined stress of both phone calls, nuke a cup of coffee, go pee, get on computer, convince computer I am indeed online, so here I am. Right back. Sort of.

[NurseBettyLu]

Then I corrected my spelling for the spelling police. Stewpid cheap keyboard.

Hardee's=Carl's Jr. in AZ. You have good taste my dear.

Sorry to hear about your...difficulties. Have fun at w**k tonight. lol

[jesus loves me]

Beth needs a double black silk - and a vacation.

[NurseBettyLu]

I don't want to go to w**k tonight.

[jesus loves me]

We never would've guessed.

[NurseBettyLu]

Do I ever want to go on Sunday?

[Genna14]

You never want to go, period.

This Switchfoot song is pretty decent. Its almost *gasp* good. Its called "Stars".

[NurseBettyLu]

Try Looking for Angels.

[Genna14]

What cd is that on?

Throw up your RAWKFIST! Mmmhmm TFK baybay.

[NurseBettyLu]

Comatose, track 11. Also really like Better than Drugs. Also on Comatose, track 4. Whoops, sorry, that's Skillet! A thousend pardons, I mis-read. Tis late, also blame headache.
