**Hermes Chat**

[crochetbella]

Thank you Ouija! I am going to try so hard to be on my best behavior.
We are going to Hermes while we're there so that is sure to be fun!

Hiya everyone,

Sunday night I was a complete insomniac, so I went to right to bed after making dinner last night. Hence I did not have a chance to catch up.

Restricter, I am soooooo glad that you got a second opinion. I hope its an infection that can be treated with antibiotics.

Mindi, Vodka and online shopping is my kinda night. Though I am sorry for the troubles that fueled the evening's activities.

Lulilu, Online shopping is the next best thing to being there. Hope the rest of your week goes well.

Big waves to pugsy, purse, nurse, CK, cobalt71, BBL, B-mom, POTH, OB and Laney.

ATG and C-bella, Have a great meet up. I hope you ladies get something purdy.

No snow days here, but it is messy, rats. So gotta get ready for work. The commute is going to be an adventure.

ARGH! ATG, it was ME who wanted a tank, and I can't see yesterday's pic! ARGH! I'm SOOOOO excited!
We have had about 18+ inches of snow here. . . blowing and drifting means there is about three solid feet on our front porch and drive and back patio. The smawl dawgs LITERALLY disappeared during their first foray out today. I have now managed to shovel a small square where they can do their business without drowning in the white stuff and will do more later when the accumulation stops. (HenHen started the day by trying to go out back and finally pooped in the front room. Led me to it, as if to say, "Hey, I knew it was wrong, but really, what could I do?" and I had to agree.)
DIY vibes for Mindi this week will be appreciated.
Oh, and ATG, I had forgotten "It's a felony." I will remember it next time. It cracks me up, which would be an excellent alternative to soaring blood pressure. Or assault.
Ooooh, I can't WAIT to see the TANK!!!!!!

 

[A-T-G]

Whew! I swear, Mindi, I was reading back through chat threads trying to find out who asked for the tank!

Never fear, I'll snap really nice pics and post 'em on flickr and here (links n' all) to make sure you can see it!

If ya hate it and don't want it, no worries! I was such fun to do...I giggled the whole time! I kept saying to DH "I'm crocheting a TANK!! and then laughing". He thinks there's something wrong with me..

I should put that 'It's a felony' line in my sig or something to help keep ya reminded...

Off to bed. Stayed up making something stoopid to hang on my door...Insanity, thy name is ATG!

 

[Mindi B]

WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING AWAKE? ATG, get thee to bed! I will wait to see my tank (seriously, I am really so thrilled about this, I can't tell you.).

 

[Balto Bag Lady]

It's snowing like mad here -- BBL, how do you manage to miss all these storms???

Good, clean living? I don't know. We got about 2 inches last night. It stopped before we went to bed. It looks like (knock wood) we may be in the clear this week. We got hit bad last year.

 

[Balto Bag Lady]

Good morning, Mindi. Sorry about the little pooper. But that's one of the problems of little tiny legs and too tall snow!
I hope your anxiety from last night has subsided some.
But, it's mid January, which means a month from now is mid February and then .... March!!! And we all know what happens in mid-late March, right????

The Hermes sale! Yippeeee!

 

[restricter]

Morning all! 12+ inches of snow, unplowed streets and suspended train service = snow day! Wooohoooo!


They just resumed service so technically I could get dressed and try to go...but Jinjy says I am needed here for power naps.

 

[pug*shoes]

Totally get it, Mindi. My mother actually thought I wasn't good enough for DH. She thought HE could do better. And she told HIM and ME!! No, she was being funny. Just her evil creepy self. Maybe she was being a little sarcastic. But she wouldn't even buy him birthday cards for son-in-law, because he was more than that to her. When we were first married, DH and I both were on the road (worked for the same company) who did she worry about? Two guesses. There was a horrible incident 30 years ago in DC and just our daily commute was travel. A plane that had just taken off from National crashed into the 14th Street Bridge in a horrible snow storm. And we didn't even use that bridge, but you know how one can miss a turn, like looking at a new diamond ring, but I digress...Somehow I was home already and there were no cell phones, they were all calling to make sure DH was okay and worrying the cr*p out of me. There was no instant news; we probably didn't even have cable. Thank G-d for no call waiting in those days. And, no DH did not take that bridge, ever.
So, you can at least put your leg behind your head and giggle about Henry and his Mama.
Really, I worry about everybody. All the time. Now, you've given me another person to worry about.

Aww, BBL, people tell me I'm the queen of worrying, so you have company in the worry corner with a lil Pugsy!

 

[pug*shoes]

And way less $$ than a mousseline!

*lalalalalalala* I'm not listening! Well maybe I am. A little. But I have the H 90cm moussie in ecru/rouge with the koi! Do I need another? Silly question. I do. Hmm...

Interesting I like the Bright Koi scarf...less than a mousseline, eh?

Ok, perfect, you get it and then let me borrow it! (ps - lilOB is doing well, but sent SO out in the snow last night for more cheetos)

Speaking of we are off to DH's family reunion this week. Vibes, prayers, 'Bella keeps her mouth shut and doesn't get into trouble ' vibes would be appreciated! :shame:

Oh goodness, good luck to you this week. Pop in if you need an escape!

Time for vodka and porn?

LMAO!

Vodka, fer shur. And I find online shopping is a more satisfactory activity than watching porn. Which either means I am uptight, overly capitalistic, or really old and sad. Sigh. No points for guessing which one it is.

*snicker* But seriously, hope today is better.

 

[pug*shoes]

Restricter, yay snow day! We have icy slush snow here, I could have worked from home, but have to be in a few meetings and bring some things up to another office in person. Work gets in the way of fun Enjoy your power nap day!

ATG, go to bed!

 

[Mree43]

Good Morning!!! It's a snow day here but I still had to come into work. Here are pictures of the roads!!

 

[pug*shoes]

Pugsy, I have bought so many shoes recently. And Restricter and CG have my "buy" finger hovering over the uggs on Zappos. I need another pair of boots like a hole in the head. I have to say (sorry) that I love that AMCQ scarf.

LOL! Glad CG and Restricter could help with the Uggs! Isn't it snowing there? So don't you need warm boots??? ( )

Peeps!! Where does the time go?

Nothing new here. Collin keeps us hopping and I'm busy learning my new job. Last weekend I didn't leave the house, yet spent too much. Darn online shopping! Now I have boxes to look forward to!!

Nice to see you CK! and yay for boxes arriving this week!

Oh my gosh. How can I thank everyone for all your kind words and support?

Hugs to all of you.

(Is it wrong to hope for a snow day tomorrow?)

You don't have to thank us, we're here when you need us

Mindi, just repeat my mantra whenever you feel the urge to strike people down (yeah, I was totally going "Star Wars" there); 'It's a felony, it's a felony....it's...a...felony' I'm fairly certain it's saved many a rude SA/boss/co-worker over the years.

No new pics of the crochet tank today. I caught up on some housework and then over-spent at Target. I found all kinds of loot for my nieces and nephews. Bad, ATG! I'll try to take new ones tomorrow.

Srsly, who requested the tank? I cannot remember!!

I should put that on a sign on my desk...

ARGH! ATG, it was ME who wanted a tank, and I can't see yesterday's pic! ARGH! I'm SOOOOO excited!

Aww, I can't blame Henry either, sorry. Seymour wouldn't do his business either this AM. There was wet white stuff all over the grass (he won't poop when it snows )

 

[pug*shoes]

Mree! Be careful! Please tell me you have good tires at least....
