Now Rebel I'm sorry did they lose their hands or something. Is this why they don't do dishes? Damn, bet there kitchens a mess with dishes and pots/pans everywhere. LOL trying to make light of it.

Your to funny Special. No their houses are imaculate, no dirty dishes, as they don't cook and it does not ever look like the houses are lived in. We are all so blessed somehow.

Gidget you go girl! Sounds like you are a very organized person and are really enjoying yourself. Wish I was like that!

Smore you are FUCKING CRACKING ME UP! But I'm with you girl, I hate people too, except for my DD friends. I love staying at home, when I have to go somewhere I get in a pissy mood. Of course part of that is because I have to leave my DD friends and computer and that just well upsets me.

Good I'm Glad. Do they say how much more snow you will be getting?

**sableskye** · December 22nd, 2008, 11:52 PM

Hi everyone

I got home from work awhile ago, and I have now caught up on the posts. I feel for all y'all having your inlaws and such visit. They can be such a pain. We are going to someone else's house. Thank goodness for that! The funny thing is, I have the largest house with the most room, but no one wants to stay here. Hehe. My dogs are too rowdy and I won't let anyone smoke in my house, but it's ok because that means I don't have to have all my family and friends over for the big get togethers.

OT Rant:
A note to all last minute shoppers: please remember that you are not the only one shopping at the last minute and it is not the saleslady's fault that you can't find something for whoever you have left to buy for. It is also not the saleslady's fault that your boyfriend bought you a shitty, cheap ass gift that you can't exchange for what you really want because your cheap ass boyfriend didn't spend enough money, just as it isn't his/her fault that management didn't schedule anyone else to come in and the ones they did schedule, didn't show up. Patience, this holiday will pass and life will still be beautiful and people will either like what you give them or not, and if they were raised right, they will say oooohhh aaaahhhh thank you so much!! Really, it will be ok. End rant.

Sorry, don't mean to sound bitchy, but I have just spent my day dealing with last minute shoppers at a MALL....bleh.

On a happier note: I wish everyone a happy holiday. It doesn't have to be stressful. I kinda like Rhoni's idea. (I think it was Rhoni) Drink up or smoke up, whatever is your bliss, but toast life. Cheers!

We laughed alot, sang alot, I took in FreshAir Kids from NY each year and we had an amazing time. The part that was not easy was having the money for the extras, but we learned to work for the extras we wanted, and we always found what things were necessary and what we could live without. I had no extra car, we had one. We had a pick-up and in those days they sat in the back, but what a great time we had. When I mowed the lawn with our push-mower (2 acres) each day, I carried the baby in my arms and the little toddler on my back in a carrier, grocery shopping on Friday's was me and the 2 oldest boys on bikes with each bike having 2 carrier baskets, and loading them up for the one mile trek home from the 'big store!' It has made for fun memories along with all the cooking and baking from scratch that I did each night and every morning before the kids ran out the door for the schoolbus. Lots of heart-warming memories that have made wonderful stories to share on the Holidays! Sorry for the long tirade, but a large family holds more good memories than some of the bad things I see happen to some small families whose children walk all over them. Just sayin'!

Chabunagung, big families are great aren't they? We always had fun. Almost all of my Aunts and Uncles (Mom came from 9 and Dad from 7) had big families too so Holiday time was a blast. At least for us kids. That's why I couldn't wait for my Thanksgiving guest to come. All total, we had 17 people here and of those, 2 sets of 2 yr old twins and 3 extra dogs. All stayed till the weekend and day after day a few would head back home to their states.
Hubby was nervous and mainly because I stress out about making everyone happy but I promised him I wouldn't stress and I never did. He still talks about how amazingly non-chaotic it was. It was every man for his/herself and for meals for the next several days, it was turkey this and turkey that and I never had to cook. I spent a lot of time laughing and crying because I was so happy. We had babies fussing constantly because it's hard to please 4 2 year olds at once and it truly was music to my ears. My huge family is still in Maryland and with my hubby getting his kids for the holidays and having to take the drive to Georgia to get them every year, we never get to see mine so this was doubly important to me. It just brought back all those memories of when I was a child.

Growing up in a large Catholic Community in the burbs of Baltimore, you can imagine our 8 kids were on the lower scale. We had many families in our church of 10, 12, and 14 kids. We never were at a loss of playmates and my parents never had to worry about a sitter. We did weekend getaways such as camping and had one of the hugest 4th of July parties every year.
When I go back home to visit, strangers I have never met will say to me..You must be a Garvey, I knew your sisters or I did this with your brothers and I get the goods on the juicy stuff.

There is nothing I want more than to do the big family gathering again. My dream is to rent a cabin at Christmastime and be surrounded by friends and family for the week.

Anyone up for Chat...not DC the other one what is it?? The Loft?

I took my night time meds 30 mins. ago and I will be crashing very soon. Sorry, but I love you.

LOL If you saw my boobs you'd understand why I felt that.
It's directly behind (on my angel wing stub) but the pain is also in front on the top of my boob. Which is why I thought heart attack and then told my PA that Mark sprained my boobie. She was rolling.. He told her it was the cookies I've been eating. Snitch..
But I still lost another 4 lbs since I weighed in last week. So neener neener Mr. Mark. It was just a muscle Spasm and not Cookie indigestion.

My meds kicked in and I slept through hubby leaving for work and just woke up after 10:00. It feels better but the pulling is still there.

Felt like someone punched me in the back and knocked my breath away. I've had them on my lower back but never up there. Scary up there. And note that women feel heart attacks differently than men. We might not get the arm tingling and can come in the form of upper back pain.

This marks the first full day of winter, but with the storms we have been dealing with it seems like winter has lasted a long time already. More snow moves into the state tonight as a warm front pushes to our south. 2 to 4 inches of snow is possible as the system heads east.

A more intense area of low pressure moves into the weather picture Tuesday night and Wednesday. This one will bring even more accumulating snows to the region. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for tonight and Tuesday with a Winter Storm Watch going into effect on Wednesday for the second system.

It is safe to say Santa will have no problem parking the reindeer in Eastern Iowa this year

It's good and bad not ever having visitors, in a way it sucks and you don't feel loved, but then again, I can't stand overnighters. Everything they do irks me. Like leaving the cupboard door open, hair in the shower, eating all my chocolate, waiting to be fed... never mind, no visitors is the best!

I feel for you TT, I really do. I'm not a good hostess and I'm overwhelmed for you just thinking about it...

I say TT calls Trish. She knows how to handle In-laws..
