May we begin making our lanyards for December? :D
I wish, wish with all my heart,
That my friend Mailyn wuld finally start.
(posting here that is)
Can I join?! You guys look you have lots of fun!!
I'm alway up for a trip to summer camp! Being new I'll take the mess hall. I just baked a cake. I'm waiting for it to cool, them I'll whip some cream and cut some strawberries to make strawberry shortcake! It's for my SIL but you guys can share!
Hey Melissa, welcome to JQ. You even knew the right way to our hearts! Hope you made plenty--this is a hungry bunch. :D
Anybody else expecting more thunderstorms today? I think we're working hard to get out of the drought.
:hi: Melissa!!! Welcome to JQU!!! Rules to remember:
1.) Bring Cookies and coffee/sodas/water, etc...:marg: and :beer: are best!!
2.) Pick on Pogo (and Alex if he gets brave enough to show his face again!!!)
3.) Pick on Pogo (and Alex if he gets brave enough to show his face again!!!)
4.) See above
5.) Remember to ask a question or Rhonda will give you a :nono:
Did I forget anything?
:joy:How about burned smores and taquila?
I'll head up crafts. Start saving the popsicle sticks - we're going to build our own theme park.:hands:
Oh, let's not forget to make mask's out of paper sacks.:hide: (Big one for me) ((Pogo's innocent)).:blush:
Summer camp, oh boy, my parents never let me go to summer camp. They used to tell me it was for kids who had parents that wanted to get rid of them. :( Since we lived on Lake Ponchartrain it was like camp all summer long but a camp of 1 with no horses, I wanted horses. :beat: oh wait wrong smilie...
I brought my snowball machine (at least that's what we call them down here and the only time we get snow. :snowball:
I can help in the mess hall... do you kids eat red beans and rice? It's a Monday tradition down here.
Welcome, yum strawberry shortcake my favorite. Can I have seconds?
We have been getting soaked but needed it but now the lawn is squishy. Lightening has been real bad but always is in this part of town. I keep telling myself I am going to get strike safe . Does anyone have that kind of service? It is supposed to protect you by grounding out the lightening and they guarantee your electronics. We got hit in Aug. 2005 (I remember b/c it was right before Katrina). I had to have the cable stuff replaced in the attic and lost my cable box, dvd, printer, router, modem and fax, pretty lucky really.
Welcome, I'm pretty new here too so I'm glad you joined so they will stop hazing me. They made me kiss a possum and eat road kill :D (the kiss part is a lie but it sounds good huh?)
Yum :marg: and coffee.
Well, I finished painting Rachel's room last night. Never paint an OCD kid's room. She had to go over it 3x's to look for holidays. She is still up for adoption by the way; but, I have to warn you she's expensive.
Sad news: my childhood friend's mom died on Friday. I got an email b/c she couldn't reach me by phone. I've known her since Kindergarten :old: Her kidney's failed and she refused dialysis. You all know my dad, Bret's dad and Angel's dad are all doing poorly so it's been stressful. My dad actually improved in the last couple of weeks, Friday he took a short walk outside. Please remember them all in your prayers.
Ok, can't end on a sad note. Back to camp. I used to teach gymnastics and dance(any of you that have met me may have noticed I have a prissy side, I think it was too much dance) and coached softball. I think Pogo would be cute in a pink tutu. Hmm, I know I had an extra large one somewhere (they are kiddie sizes). :trio:
So what flavor snowball do you want?? I have 48 flavors. My favorite is mango.
Wow, it took a new thread to get some new JQ enrollees huh? Welcome Traci and Marilyn.
By the way Marilyn, I loved your comment in the water cooler about just sitting on the front stoop to be cremated in AZ. That would be a good line for last comic standing. :thumbsup:
Our initiation haras...um orientation... will begin shortly. Pogo's in charge of new inductees. He'll also be glad that there's finally somebody older than him on board (I won't mention any names, so don't worry Marilyn).
Has anybody been in touch with Alex lately? I'm getting worried about him being AWOL so long.
I'll help in the mess hall, and I rock at crafts...ummm except when I glue my fingers together :secret:
I'll save you a:marg: if I can have some cake.
ummmm....:faint:
Bring on the initia.. ooops, orientation.;)
Can I have a snowball? Do you have strawberry?
So where IS Alex, anyways?
Is this the first time we have not had a ? in the JQ title?
Marilyn! You found it! Welcome!
mickey&missy! Welcome!
Since now there's a new thread, I get a fresh start at attempting to keep up around here! Will it happen? Of course not!
P.S. I just realized this post has NO periods for sentences! Only ? or ! Yay! Blame it on the coffee!
Drummerboy: Guess what gang? As certain people from Albequerque (ahem) would know, lots of hot air makes things float away. We've had so much hot air that we're going to float away tomorrow. Can anybody guess from some recent conversations where the magic RV's going next?
And what exactly do you mean about people from Albuquerque knowing about hot air??? OH, balloons, gottcha...ok moving on.
Yes, he can see with his new eyes that you were posting, he even has xray vision now. Scary.
MARILYN!! Yea, you're here!! Please stay and help us poke the most fun at Pogo as possible, you really seem to be the best at it!!
Morning all, boy you've all been busy this morning and I have barely gotten up. Not sure what's up for us today. Mike's talking breakfast but I think I'm low on supplies. Hope you all have a good day. I'll check in later.
I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and them as well.
Hey, I have a question, Go figure huh? :rolleyes:
Do y'all think I could make the football team for these woderful fighting possums? I'm 5 feet 6 inches and about 107 pounds, then again, maybe you need a mascot.:blush:
