Thank you everyone. Chrissy got married to another sailor she is on a different ship now.(I did not go to the wedding) She will have 6 years inn the Navy in May, she already reenlisted so has two more to do unless she gets pregos. I actually hope she doesn't, yet. With his two kids they have three. Anyway the got a puppy instead. lol I will see her when she get leave in April.
Good Morning to Everyone.
Home sick again today. I caught Christina's cold. The cold isn't bad but the cough that goes with it had me running to the doctor. I couldn't breath. The doctor stated that until I don't hack up a lung when I cough that I should stay home. My words not his. He said it in doctor terms. LOL. So I am home again. Hope everyone has a good day.
Good Morning to Everyone.
Anna, I will try and keep the rain here for you. I really don't think I have a say in it but Washington really does need the rain. Actually we need the snow in the Mountains. We have none. It is going to be a bad summer here. Hope the wedding goes without a problem. SUN OR Shine in stead of rain or shine. Praying that is what you will get SUN all day Saturday. The rain can start very late for you.
Vickyrun, hello stranger, wonderful to hear from you again...you have been missed! Please wish Chrissy a happy belated bday from me!
Oh Anna the joys of a wedding, so hard when things are out of our control and we have to rely on others. No doubt it will all turn out beautifully... it's just the process LOL
Catsmom, will you be playing "boss" all week? Despite the early hours I bet the working environment is soooo much better when you do! ;-)
Have a great day everyone
Well local weather is still calling for rain and COLD temps on Saturday!!! Seriously?!?!?! It's going to make outdoor pictures hard but I know it won't damper the rest of the activities!!! No bridzilla moments, in fact I was surprised how calm Jenn was when she took the cake topper to the baker today and after talking to this guy for about a half an hour I was getting the idea that he had no idea the cake he was making. And I know all those details had been worked out months ago by both Jenn, David, and David's mother when she took the final payment in. I was ready to reach over and grab the guy and ask if he had any idea what he was doing!!! I sure hope he figures it out soon!!! He was even questioning the colors. 3 days before the wedding is not the time to be having a discussion on how to turn royal blue fondant into Navy blue fondant!!! Even I know THAT much!!!!!
Catsmom,
Can't we find someway to make her disappear so you wouldn't have to "play" boss - you could just do it like it's supposed to be done?!?!?!
Vickyrun,
So happy to see you again!!! Please pass along Happy Birthday greetings to Chrissy!!! Wow, six years already!!! Does she want to make a career out of it???
Jean,
Could you hang on to the rain up there just a couple more days??? You can send it Sunday!!!!
