I slip in here and see what you all are up to!
The one song I really laughed over was 'you're the reason our kids are ugly'. I think maybe Betty suggested that one.

I think I saw this on the Ed Sullivan show...hahahaha
We would go around singing it, and my grams went nuts saying..thats disrespectful!

Wow, very pretty and haunting.

Hope you didn't hit the bad weather! Myrtle beach is great, I hope you get to enjoy it with all the brohahaha

What bothers me more than a name, is the ones who mention they want a woman who is sexy and passionate. And of course they mention this 5 or 6 times in the profile. This makes me feel that they want someone who will jump into bed with them fast w/o getting to know them first. What ever happened to letting things progress instead of a fast food drive thru mentality?

I make this too.
I use the can of chicken soup,mix the chicken cubes and the stuffing spices into it, put the dry stuffing over the top with a jar of chicken gravy.
Yummmm
I never thought about putting sour cream into it....hmmmm sounds great.

I have met alot of wonderful people. Sadly, none that I wish to spend alot of time with, let alone my life. sighhhhh

Well, my kids are 27, 20, and 15. But, I think I would worry a tad about them no matter what, because I love them.

We can't help it can we?

Thanks Deli

Hmmmm...maybe thinking about whether it would matter or not is a good way of doing it! I just always think, I know that I always get what I want or need, so there are no worries.

As for my kids!!!! well, my son can go for his driving permit this year, and I am already clutching my heart and hyper ventalating...hahahahaha.
And I don't want to discuss my daughter's new marriage. Sighhhh

Hugs Betty. I was 50 years old when I finally figured out that worrying justs makes you stress out. I still have to make a concious effort, but I think if I still allowed worry to run my life I would probably be dead of a heart attack by now. With being unemployed for a year with a son to take care of, and of course all the money worries, along with my other children having issues in their lives,my toes would be tickling daisies. Of course, laughter helps, and you have a great personality and sense of humor, so I know that helps alot! Everytime something bad happens, force yourself to see something good about it, or how you could turn it into a story to make others laugh. That helps.

I used to worry about everything!
I think Betty and I would be going head to head for the Queen of worry contest!
But, I have finally come to realize that worrying only gives credence and power to the negative things, so now I try very hard to constantly see the great outcome I am looking for. I say try, because worrying is a habit that is totally ingrained, and it takes time and lots of 'scooping' out of the old. You have to constantly (at first) concentrate on what good can come of any situation, and when the bad slides in, notice it fast and nip it in the bud!
Now I find the bad scenarios slip fast through my mind, and then I smile at all the good things I see happening instead. Less tums!!!

Testing??!! Does this mean we will all have extra parts to work with, or ummm, maybe strange powers like being able to contact people without typing??????

Forgive me, and don't hit me too hard but, What is chorizo?

If I do not see all of you before Christmas, I wish you the merriest of holidays with you opening the present of what you wish for the most!!!
Merry Christmas, and I thank all of you for being here and being so friendly!

Wednesday my daughter will be here for christmas, then on Christmas it will be my son and me. This year he didn't want a tree, so I didn't push for one but things feel strange without one. sigh.

Sage, to answer your question, I have felt like something has been missing for years. Maybe it is because when I was young, we would open presents at home in the morning, go to my dad's parents for lunch and then go to my mom's parents for dinner(my 3 uncles and 22 assorted cousins would be there). Christmas to me is being with everyone you love best. That seems to have dwindled down now to my kids, and they are usually busy with other things. I tried to find somewhere that I could volunteer to help out this year, but everyone said they had more than enough people for their needs. It is wonderful that so many people are willing to share their time with others, but now I will feel a little lonely.

My dad used to say
If you start a fight you will get a whipping when you get home; if someone else starts the fight and you lose, you will get a whipping when you get home.

My grams used to say
You don't want to go outside in the dark, the booger bears will get you.
I had no idea what a booger bear was, but the thought of it scared me enough that I stayed in the house and peeked out the window.

Never knew they had a fudge kit! Now, I think even I could do that! I have lots of fudge recipes..but they never seem to firm up. I would love a great recipe for maple walnut fudge because that is my favorite. I have never even seen a recipe out there for maple walnut fudge. sigh.

Back to the issue: wooohoooooooooooo fudge! who cares if it is from a kit???

Well if she has taffy markings, why not
Taffy?
Or Sadie?
or Keisha

just saying..lol

Play time???? pfffft
Sex at our age is to share, enjoy each other, and get closer and bond. Playtime is the sandbox over on the island.
