Kimmy, whats gotta happen before you give up ?

This be sucking out your SPARK, chick.

Not encouraging you to STOP, just asking you if you know the criteria for you to say " OK, enuff zenuff ".

Starz, I'm addicted to the food channel right now, so I will go there. Thanks, I always do regular giblets bread stuffing.

Kimmy, do you dice your apples? Do you peel them? You just throw them in with the other stuff, nothing specail? Do you add giblets, or just sausage? Oh, forget it, I'll call you.

RH, who you talking to? Didn't you chew me out one day for that???? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Stars I saw that episode of Emeril. It was a bread stuffing with artichokes, spinach and brie cheese.

I wanted to make that at my sisters this year, but she said NO. (the biotch!) I was supposed to meet up with my other sister who lives in Manhattan & her two girls down by Ann Arbor but the plans fell through so I am stuck with little spoiled sister this year.

This is what she has told me to bring (yes told me) rimaki and crab cakes for the football game. And a pumpkin desert my mom used to make. Also I have to make the giblet gravy because she doesn't know how to make a good gravy. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

And my DD went back to her dads this a.m. so I am feeling about the worst I could possibly feel. Well off to the store to buy some vino. And hoping like hell (hell is not a curse word btw) it helps!

Glad I have his thread to read tonight when the tears really start to fall. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

Kimmy,

I too was wondering if Plan B was in your plans. And I liked what Robbie said about Nios being motivated by the fear of loss. How about a good 180?

I like Plan B, and I personally think everyone should go to plan B right after two weeks of showing what a great catch WS is about to lose. But that is just me and not to be taken as advice.

But I like the 180 also, however can't "do" a 180 because that is my regular personality in a relationship and probably why I have never managed to make it to the altar. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Jelly: Sorry, I was being an idiot. But I never ate them nuts. Just all the neighbors and friends my dad invited. Of course they were drunk so it served 'em right. Gotta go, it's quitin time. What's that that Fred Flintstone says, "yabba, dabba doo...." when the whistle blows!!!!

I think a pitch black, communication through an intermediary ONLY, you ain't playing around, PLAN B would knock him right off the fence.

I might still be married, and on my way to recovery if I had stayed dark. It was taking a toll on eyechart, and would have probably done the trick had I stuck to it.

From Bob's thread:

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> 1) It was not a beautifull love story that sadly wasn't meant to be.

2) I am sorry and regret that I ever did it

3) I am ashamed of what I did

4) I am sorry for hurting you

5) I am sorry for hurting our children

6) I want to commit 100% to this marriage and do whatever it takes to make you feel secure in moving foreward.

Until you have these statements sans pride from FWW </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I HAVE this from Nio. But I also have a sulking hulking fuzzy wookie-ish man beast whom I have difficulty reading now.

dipiT,

Divorce papers are just papers. They only hold whatever importance you put on them, meaning -

lots of people remarry each other after divorce. My younger sister remarried her XH, I work with a guy who remarried his first wife (after two other marriages inbetween), a girlfriends parents remarried and I have another girlfriend whose XWH just left his OW and is now dating her!

If you still love this man, and have regrets about the divorce then a good 180 might work for you. You can be the OW now if you want, you know.

PMP??!?!?!?!?!

Robby, are you f'in kidding me?

Don't make me call you the c word (settle down mods, not that c word)...

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Uhmmm hmmm...
"BOY MAYOR," dramatic pause, "YOU SURE ARE FUNNY."

Press Release:
November 21, 2004
RE: Mayor Robby and His Thanksgiving Fare
FR: The Mayor's office, Press Relations Manager, DipiT

Idiotville citizens displayed shock, horror and disgust after learning of Robby's non-appetizing Thanksgiving Dinner, to consist of Turkey Pot Pie and Tator Tots.

"I was really saddened by the lack of traditional food that will be available for the Mayor on Thanksgiving Day," exclaimed respected Idiotville resident, and food expert, KY. "I plan on having a 7 course gourmet meal. It is really, really sad."

"I do not see the big deal," argued Idiotville resident, and former Brit, Bob Pure. "Thanksgiving, the Puritans, Indians, come on...sounds like a bunch of Yankee drama to me."

Despite the deplorable menu planned by the Mayor's cooking staff, headed up by Chef Boy Ar Dee, Robby's good willed nature and generousity still held true. "Anyone up for leftovers," he sheepishly offered, to the laughter and applause of Idiotville residents.

Idiotville will next consider providing Mayor Robby with a more suitable meal, or at the very least, remind him of all that is left to be thankful for.

DipiT, that was so darn funny, look at you all clever and all that, you are much to good for eye chart, I'm sure of it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> I'm LMTAO!!

And Robby, how pathetic are you, no, not the meal, but the fact that you quoted yourself, sad, very, very sad!!!

Weaver- <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

RH, AHA, that is what I thought, but since you called me on it once, thought I would you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Time to make dinner, or clean something, or bend over. OOPS, did I just say that.

I'm not making the (gasp) traditional fare. We're having spiral ham, homemade rolls (of course), blackeyed peas, 'rots (carrots), cherry pie (homemade), fresh veggies and dip...and a whole lotta popcorn and movies.

BTW: Anyone seen Santa Claus 2? We have it and re watched it yesterday. I love the Molar-nator! Jel, we need I (heart) the Molar-nator t's! Such a fun flick.

Z gets his cast off tomorrow, and I'll be picking his friend and him up. He'll turn 15 on the 30th, too. ST, you (heart) this! He wants an earring for his b-day. Okay, so I talked him out of eyebrow or lip piercing. OY! Ear, I can live with. Something that gets so infected and you can't hide the grossness - nope, not on my boy. Gawd. I miss that kid. Oh. And not entirely thrilled here: he's bringing his board. Mebee I can talk him into playing the guitfiddle on the porch and singing along?????

I sent him a pkg. with pics in it from the wedding. On the envelope I'd drawn this gnarly tree - very detailed....at the foot of the tree was a fairy ring of mushrooms - complete with little windows and chimneys on them. He put it up on his collage wall. My boy still thinks I'm awesome - even in front of his friends (tho, he said when I come watch him play he'll make sure none of his friends hit on me....what kind of kids does his dad let him hang with???). When he was a baby, you could tell I was his goddess. When he was a little kid, I was the "cool mommy." When he was 9, I lost it all - was no longer a goddess and no longer cool. It all comes in a circle, folks. I (heart) being a mom to boys.

Course I love my girls, too. It's just so different with girls. Different in a great way, but so different.

Hopefully, ST was there when you bent over (or else you're worse than we thought).

Now, boys, no quarreling said the mother hen.

Well, I took MIL to the store in the pouring rain to buy Thanksgiving groceries. Then when we came out with 2 basketsful the skies opened even more. I loaded both baskets in the trunk in the pouring rain. Came home, unloaded MIL's groceries for her (bad heart and lungs, etc.)Then came home to bring in my own. Boys (IB & S)upstairs on big screen loud watching movie. Didn't hear me come in - unloaded mine and they showed up downstairs when there was one bag left.
Should have gone upstairs to get them, but I was already wet -- why get two more people wet?

Creek is within 4 feet of the treeline. Still rising.

Sometimes when it rains real hard we lose our satellite internet connection, as well as satellite t.v. Then it's quiet around here -- spooky.

Robby - sorry about shortening Iceberg to IB without telling you. I decided he wasn't worth 7 letters right now. In fact, now that I think about it.....

More rain. "The sky is falling, the sky is falling" cried Chicken Little.

Starz: Not to change the subject on you, but can you tell me about that satellite internet connection? If you don't think it's appropriate here, email me the company and web address to <<will repost when you're around and I don't have to keep email addy up so long>>. Thanks.

Living in the boonies, 56k connection sucks, especially since I'm used to T1 and faster at work.
